Chapter 603 Traitor "What Bao Ning said is very true, and the lonely king is really indignant and heartbroken for what he has done to despicable people! Gao Shaoyi beat his chest and said angrily: "Gao Changgong, a contemptible villain, dares to be so rebellious, not to mention usurping power and seizing the throne, he doesn't even think about sibling affection, it is really a shame for my Gao family, so vicious, it is simply intolerable!" ”

"His Royal Highness King Yan, the villain's enlightenment is only for a while, Your Highness must not be angry because of this! Now that only Your Royal Highness is unique in Daqi, you are the last hope of the Gao family, you must take care of your body, reorganize the superstructure, and restore the glory of Emperor Shenwu! Gao Baoning said solemnly and respectfully: "Those who have lost the way have little help, Gao Changgong is perverse, reckless, and will inevitably be defeated!" ”

Speaking of which, Gao Baoning is also a character, since he served as the assassin of Yingzhou, the northeast of Northern Qi is still stable. His people have lived in the barbarian settlement for a long time, they are skilled in bows and horses, and their temperament is brave and arrogant, which is quite deterrent to the Khitan and Kumoxi, and the impression in the hearts of the local people is not bad.

Gao Baoning was born in Saibei, and he was not a member of the Gao royal family, and his status was far inferior to Gao Si, the king of Nan'an. However, Gao Baoning is also loyal to the Gao family, especially with Gao Shaoyi, the king of Fanyang.

Speaking of which, Gao Baoning is not a relative of the Gao family, as long as he is willing to submit, Gao Changgong will inevitably treat him with courtesy, but in fact, Gao Baoning has a grudge against Gao Changgong and is unwilling to surrender, especially hate happiness.

A few years ago, Gao Wei was awarded the title of Yingzhou Assassin by Gao Wei because of his meritorious contribution to the "Recipe for Longevity", but it was only because Gao Wei wanted to take him as a hostage that he stayed in Yecheng with the reason of "not being old enough and needing to learn", and Yingzhou was actually still in charge of Gao Baoning.

Although Gao Baoning did not lose the power in his hands, he was nominally restrained by happiness, and instead of rising, he descended. was ridden on the head by a yellow-mouthed erector, especially since this person was still the son of Gao Changgong, who was not very bright and had lost power, Gao Baoning was arrogant, and he was naturally very uncomfortable in his heart.

Gao Baoning has always believed that in the past few years, he has not been able to make an inch, all because he is happy, and he will inevitably be resentful, how can he surrender to Gao Changgong now? In addition, Gao Baoning also has some other considerations in his heart.

The marriage between the Northern Zhou and the Turks has become a foregone conclusion, just waiting for the autumn yellow horse fat, and the two sides will join forces to defeat Qi, and the current broken chaos of the Northern Qi is bound to be difficult to stop the coalition iron cavalry. Although he was released in order to avoid completely tearing his face with the Turks, it is an indisputable fact that he had a bad relationship with the Turks, but the relationship between Gao Shaoyi and the current Turkic Khan is relatively close.

Gao Shaoyi is the third son of Emperor Wenxuan Gao Yang, who also inherited his father's temperament, arrogant and presumptuous, lawless, likes to drink and have fun with villains, befriends eunuchs in the court, kills people for fun, acts recklessly, and evil deeds are also difficult to write.

said that Gao Yang's metamorphosis was outrageous, but the Northern Qi in his power was indeed strong, and even the Turks did not dare to take it lightly. He respected Gao Yang very much, so he preferred Gao Shaoyi, especially Gao Shaoyi's legs and ankles were similar to Gao Yang's, and he liked him even more, because Gao Shaoyi's relationship with the Turks was relatively harmonious.

Although the Turks coveted the prosperity of the Central Plains, not all of them were willing to go south to the Central Plains. After all, they are accustomed to nomadic life, they don't know how to produce, and even if they go to the city life in the Central Plains, they have no taste. Compared with the vast land of the Central Plains, which is no more vast than the steppe, the Turks are more eager to get mountains of grain, colorful silk and satin, delicate and practical ceramics, and delicate and fair skin, slender and slender women, and these are not lacking in the Northern Qi.

"Bao Ning, in your opinion, what should the Lone King do now?" Gao Shaoyi vented, and the fear and anger in his heart disappeared slightly, but the melancholy between his eyebrows did not decrease in the slightest, "Gao Changgong's foundation is unstable now, and he will not be in Yingzhou in three or two months, but he will come sooner or later." ”

Gao Baoning's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said with a determined expression: "Your Highness, although Gao Changgong has many elite soldiers under his command, his contemptuous background will inevitably attract the envy of others. ”

After a pause, Gao Baoning said again: "Your Highness, in the last year of the battle with the Zhou people, although Gao Changgong's father and son defeated the Zhou lord for a while, the Zhou people hated his father and son, and now the Zhou people have formed an alliance with the Turks, presumably they are also eager for revenge."

His Royal Highness has always been friendly with the Turkic Tabo Khan, and now why not destroy the dissidents with heavy courtesy, and then allow the Zhou people to land the city, and the inside and outside should be combined to eradicate Gao Changgong's father and son, and the Zhou people will not refuse. If you really fight hard with Gao Changgong's father and son, even if they can win, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses, but with Your Highness's help, it is different! ”

In Gao Baoning's view, the Turks need materials, Gao Shaoyi wants land, there is no conflict between the interests of the two, and it is completely possible to find an opportunity for cooperation. As long as a few years of hard work are passed, when the dynasty is stable, the soldiers are strong, and it is not impossible to compete with the Turks.

Gao Shaoyi frowned and groaned for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Baoning, although the Lone King has some friendship with his Khan, he may not be willing to help the Lone King ascend the throne and become the emperor!" This time, the Turks and the Zhou State concluded a marriage and joined forces to defeat Qi, and he must have the heart of destroying our great Qi, how could he give up this great opportunity? ”

"Your Highness's worries are not unreasonable, but Your Highness, the relationship between the Turks and the Zhou people is not harmonious, and can a mere woman really affect national affairs?" The corners of Gao Baoning's mouth hooked up a cold smile: "As long as there are enough interests, the alliance between the Turks and the Zhou people can naturally collapse, not to mention that the princess married by the Zhou people is not only a royal concubine, but also the nominal wife of Happy Xiao'er, the Zhou people are so slow, how can the Turks be indifferent?!" ”

Gao Shaoyi was stunned for a while, and finally showed a relieved smile on his face and said: "Bao Ning's words really made the lonely king Mao Sai suddenly, a clever plan, a wonderful plan!" Bao Ning, a loyal man in danger, today ** cast the lonely king to Li, if he can succeed in the lonely king, he will repay him with a peach! ”

"His Royal Highness King Yan is serious!" Gao Baoning got up from his seat, knelt down respectfully, and said loudly sincerely: "The lower officials are loyal and wise, it is really their duty, and they dare not take credit!" The subordinate only asks His Highness not to give up, and allows me to follow His Highness! ”

"Good, good!" Gao Baoning laughed, bowed to help Gao Baoning up, held his arm tightly, and sighed: "Today, the lonely king has such a wise and brave general as Baoning, why worry about the big thing?" Bao Ning, if the lone king is the son of heaven in the future, you are the prime minister of the lone king! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Wechen see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live! Gao Baoning was full of excitement, and fell to his knees again, his eyes suddenly becoming extremely bright.

"Hahahaha!"

"Boom—"

The shower finally came to the earth with a muffled thunder, the wind became more and more wanton, and the rain seemed to be pouring, but Gao Shaoyi's mood was completely different from Fang Cai, and the cheerful and arrogant laughter came out through the rain curtain.

Although the happy crossing changed a lot of history, Gao Shaoyi still made peace with the Turks. The only difference is that in history, Gao Shaoyi was unwilling to surrender to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but took refuge in the Turks, established a government in exile, and fantasized about restoring the country, but now he is seeking personal interests in the interests of the people of the country and has become a real traitor.

He was not clear about Gao Shaoyi's movements, and even if he knew, he would only laugh it off, because in his heart, whether it was Gao Shaoyi, the Turks, or the Northern Zhou or the Southern Chen, they were all objects to be eliminated, and it was only a matter of time. What's more, now that he is busy with things at hand, he is happy that he doesn't have much effort to pay attention to Gao Shaoyi.

Half a month ago, under the joint name of Tang Yong and other civil ministers and military generals, Gao Changgong finally complied with the will of heaven and ascended the throne as emperor, that day was May 15, 577 AD, which was a day of great significance for the Northern Qi Dynasty and even the entire Central Plains.

Gao Changgong originally wanted to slowly stabilize the country, and then put it in the hands of Gao Xing, but the alliance between the Turks and the Northern Zhou made him have to stand up in advance and take on this shattered and crumbling country.

Time was rushed and preparation was insufficient, and Gao Changgong naturally faced many problems and difficulties. Especially in the past few years, the Northern Qi Dynasty has been chaotic, the magnates in various places have neglected supervision, the good and the bad are uneven, and corrupt officials and corrupt officials abound, but in order to complete the unification as soon as possible, Gao Changgong can't do without these people, so he can only plan carefully in the future.

As for happiness, he is not too busy with things. Although Gao Changgong's prestige is unmatched, it does not mean that there was no opposition during the period. In troubled times, we should use heavy codes, and for those who dare to resist, what we are happy to give is ruthless suppression and killing. And some of the powerful people who have aroused the anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people, they can not turn a blind eye to the joy, and they are all eradicated by thunderous means, but the happiness is to grasp the big and let go of the small as much as possible, which not only encompasses the hearts of the people, but also shocks others, but does not produce too much turmoil.

Of course, in these incidents, the shadow of the shadow thorn under the command of Xing Xing is indispensable, and the Lunatic Cult also contributes a lot. After openly and honestly negotiating with the Lunatic Cult, Happy was able to truly see the intricacies and deep-rooted nature of their relationship, and he was shocked and a little glad in his heart.

If the Lunatic Cult is in cahoots with the Turks, even if he is happy and conceited, he really does not have the confidence to defeat a few coalition forces, and even if he can win, how many people will be buried in the grass, then what is the point of what he has done?

As soon as he returned to the palace after inspecting the city defense of Jinyang, the hot tea in his mouth had not yet been swallowed, and the beautiful and beautiful Wu Zhao came to him, and the voice like a silver bell sounded, although it was not as gentle as Wu Shun's voice, but it was unique.

"Little prince, according to your orders, Zhao Protector and his party of 100 people have arrived in Yingzhou three days ago, and they must have made contact with Prince Dahe Chucai today."

happily put down the teacup, frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure and helplessness: "Shun'er, is it embarrassing for you to call me brother-in-law?" ”

Wu Shun's eyes condensed slightly, his fists clenched lightly in his sleeves, and then he relaxed and said: "Little prince, Gao Shaoyi, the king of Fanyang, has sent a secret envoy to the Turks again, I don't know if you need to do anything from the sect?" ”
