The light of day is faint, and the dawn is just around the corner.

Gao Yi finally came back, if he didn't come back, the people in Gaojiazhuang who were nervous might be going to run away. Fortunately, he finally came back, and it was better to come back late than not to come back. When Ling Yun heard that Gao Yi was still in the mood to ask them whether they wanted to hear good news or bad news first, it was already clear that things were not as bad as they imagined. Sure enough, Gao Yi's news made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Gauding's team did have an accident, but it was okay. Gaojiazhuang's new allies did not betray them, and they were not discovered by Yang Guang, the king of Jin in Yangzhou, but there was a small accident.

One moment ago, Ling Yun was already ready to kill officials and rebel and flee desperately, but the next moment, when he heard the news, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and the little bit of desperate heart he had just mustered was gone. As a last resort, who is willing to throw his head and spill his blood. Gao Qianxue also breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood. She has been going south to Jiangnan for more than a year, and seeing that things are about to make progress, she is unwilling to give up her efforts at this time. In the early morning before the dawn of dawn, Gao Qianxue asked the two of them to prepare their mounts and then turn over on their horses. She wore a soap gauze Zhaojun hat on her head, and the long soap yarn hung down from the wide brim to the knees, covering her face and body. Under the hat veil, he is wearing a heavy fur coat, which looks noble and cold and mysterious. "Yi Lang, let's go out for a walk." She said with a smile, "Worried about the middle of the night, it turned out to be just a false alarm." ”

"Okay." Ling Yun replied with a smile, knowing that he didn't have to work hard, and he didn't have to flee for the time being, he now also had a feeling of the rest of his life. "I'll go with you to see the sunrise."

"Well, I've been in Jiangnan for more than a year, and I really haven't seriously appreciated the scenery of Jiangnan." At this time, the two girls, Mulan and Qinglian, also stood in the distance with more than ten family members leading their horses, seemingly to follow the guards. Seeing that the guards had been arranged, Ling Yun also nodded and got on the horse. It was a red horse, very tall, but very tame. Ling Yun was like a skilled rider, and he easily stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse without any difficulty.

Asa Snow rode her big white horse all the way, running faster and faster, silent all the way, as if in this way to relieve the tension and pressure of the previous one. Ling Yun had no choice but to keep up, but fortunately, his physical riding skills were good. He followed behind and told her to slow down, but the morning breeze blew away his words, and she didn't hear her at all. After that, Ling Yun stopped talking, and just followed silently on horseback. They followed the avenue at the foot of the mountain, galloping on the open plain with white mist. Mulan and Qinglian, the two little loli, kept a distance from the family and followed, which made Ling Yun sigh, it turned out that not only the high and shallow snow horses were well ridden, but even the two little girls could ride big horses.

It was not until they had galloped to a gentle hill that the morning dawned and the snow was high and light snow came to a halt, and they were miles away from their makeshift camp. Ling Yun followed Qianxue, only to see her take off her Zhaojun hat, her fair cheeks reflected two red glows, and the whole person was surprisingly radiant. She laughed and said loudly, "It's been a long time since I've ridden a horse so happily, and it's really pleasant to ride a horse like a man." Yi Lang, I used to often wish that I could be a man, so that I could show my face outside and be happy with revenge. He didn't expect that Qianxue, who had always been very calm and restrained, would have a bold side like a man in his bones.

Ling Yun joked: "Then I won't be able to marry you, I'm not as good as Long Yang." ”

"If I am a man, Yi Lang can be a woman." Ling Yun's words made the provoking Qianxue smile. "I really want to be like this, just the two of us have been riding like this, going far away from the world, and letting go of a qiē."

A smile came to the corner of Ling Yun's mouth, "You can." ”

Qianxue smiled slightly, and there was a bit of bitterness in her smile. "I'd love that, but I can't. Although I am a daughter, I am the daughter of the Gao family, and it is impossible to leave this qiē. ”

"Light snow, in fact, sometimes, let go when it's time to let go. The State of Qi has been dead for 20 years, and the Sui family has also had the Central Plains for 18 years, and the Central Plains is unified, and the people are living and working in peace and contentment, isn't this actually very good? Why don't we let go of this burden, just the two of us, ride horses and swords to walk the world, see the scenery of the world, and when we are tired, we will find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to buy a manor and live in seclusion in the mountains? ”

"It would be nice if that was the case." Asa Xue said, "But Yi Lang, I have a responsibility, this is not a burden, but a responsibility." ”

"That's fine." Ling Yun said softly, he also knew that this was not something he could say in a sentence or two. Instead, he said, "By the way, what are you going to do now?" I didn't hear Gao Yi say too clearly just now, it is the people of the Chen family who are cooperating with us, and it is the Xiao family who saves us? ”

"It was Chen Xiong who cooperated with us this time, and it was Xiao Shiluo who saved Gao Ding."

"Chen Xiong, Xiao Shiluo?" Seeing that Gao Qianxue said so solemnly, Ling Yun estimated that these two guys were not small. And just by listening to their last names, you can guess some. The Jiangnan Shi clan originally took Wang Xie as the largest gate valve. However, later in the Southern Liang Dynasty, the rebellion of Hou Jing in Jiangnan can be said to have caused a devastating impact on those big lords in Jiangnan, and until the Sui destroyed Southern Chen, the big valves in Jiangnan were mainly Gu Lu, Zhu, Zhang, Shen Yuhe, and the three clans of Liu, Xiao and Chen, and they were once the royal family of the Southern Dynasty and retained strong strength. At present, Gao Qianxue actually contacted the Chen family, which is very likely to be one of the Chen branches of the Southern Dynasty. Although after the demise of Nan Chen, the entire Chen clan was moved to Guanlong, he believed that there would always be some fish that slipped through the net. As for Xiao Shiluo, who shot halfway, although he hadn't heard of the name, it was estimated that he was also a branch of the Xiao clan of this big clan, otherwise, how many ordinary people would dare to meddle in such a thing?

"What is the origin of this Chen Xiong and Xiao Shiluo?" If you want to rebel, of course, you have to attract allies, but rebellion is a dangerous thing to carry your head, and you must also be cautious in choosing allies. Otherwise, if the other party betrays, they may suffer a catastrophe.

The sun rises in the east, the red sun dyes the eastern sky red, the golden morning sun pierces through the clouds, probes into the hazy white fog of the early morning, a vast field unfolds in front of the two, and then in front of them is the Yangtze River flowing eastward. Gao Qianxue pointed to the mountains and rivers and said to Lingyun, "Here, it used to be owned by the Chen Xiong family!" ”

Ling Yun frowned, as he expected. "You actually found a Nanchen royal family to rebel together?"

In a certain way, the Chen family, as the old owner of Nan Chen, still has a high prestige among the landlords in Jiangnan. But things can't just look at one side, look at the Sui Dynasty when they destroyed Nan Chen, for a year, there was almost no big battle, and there was not even a decisive battle, and they were destroyed by the Sui army. It can even be said that the demise of Nanchen was not only suppressed by the Sui army's more than 500,000 troops advancing east-west for thousands of miles, but also caused by Chen Shubao's mediocrity, but there was also a very important reason for the failure, that is, almost all the wealthy families in Jiangdong at that time took an indifferent attitude to this battle. No one supported Nan Chen and fought against the Northern Zhou together. Although they later rebelled against the Sui Dynasty after the fall of Nanchen, it was not for Kuang to restore Nanchen, but only because the Sui Dynasty had damaged the interests of these Jiangdong clans too much after seizing Nanchen, so they rebelled. It can be seen from here that although the Chen family is the old master of Jiangdong, their prestige in Jiangdong is not very useful. What's more, if he remembered it well, the Chen family went up to Chen Shubao, down to Chen Shuda, Chen Shushen and other princes, princes, princesses, and princesses, but they were all rushed to Guanlong. Except for Chen Shubao who was drunk and dreamed of death in Daxing City every day, drinking and chatting with Yang Jian, the lord of Sui, the rest of the Chen clan did not live very well, most of them were sent to various parts of Guanlong, and many people could only sell wine and farm for a living, and their lives were not hard.

Qianxue is looking for this group of people to be allies, and she still wants to create an opposition to the Sui Dynasty, this is not a bit of a pig-like teammate, a god-like teammate, how do you look at it, the prospect is not good.

"Chen Xiong is the son of Chen Yin, the former deposed prince of Southern Chen, King Wuxing." At the end, Gao Qianxue added, "Well, it's Chen Yin's illegitimate son, and his mother was originally a singer of Jiankang." ”

Hearing this, Ling Yun didn't know what to say, so he could only touch his forehead with his hand and feel a headache. Nima, hearing the name Chen Xiong is very powerful, who knows that he is just an illegitimate child with a kabuki, and he doesn't even have a legitimate Chen family identity. Although Chen Yin was not bad to their mother and son when he was still the prince, and he did not enter the palace, he also arranged a large number of fields and family businesses for them, but no big family like Nima grabbed a lot of illegitimate children. If you want to borrow the power of the Chen family, you can't find such a guy. is young, and he is an illegitimate child with no name and no share, and it is estimated that he has nothing but a little money.

After Gao Qianxue carefully introduced the relationship between this Chen Xiong, he was even more speechless. This Chen Xiong Chen Ge, his mother is just a kabuki in Jiankang City. Although his father Chen Yin used to be a prince, Chen Yin's mother was just a very ordinary palace maid. And when she gave birth to him, she died in childbirth. It's just that because he was Chen Shubao's first son, his grandfather Chen Xuandi treated him as a son-in-law at that time. His father Chen Shubao's wife, the crown princess Shen, raised him as his own son because he had no chance. Later, Chen Shubao succeeded to the throne, and Chen Yin became the crown prince as the eldest son. But Queen Shen didn't like Pang, Chen Shubao's favorite was Zhang Lihua, so he later abolished Chen Yin, who did not have the support of the maternal forces, and set up Chen Shen, the son of Concubine Pang Zhang Lihua, as the crown prince. But fortunately, Chen Shubao likes Wen more, so after being deposed, he was placed by King Wu Xing, and he was not imprisoned or killed like the princes who failed in the power struggle in the Northern Dynasties at that time.

But doesn't this mean that Chen Xiong is worthless?

"Chen Xiong is really not an ideal partner to work with." Gao Qianxue seemed to see the imagination in Ling Yun's heart, and explained with a smile: "Although Chen Xiong's father is Chen Yin, the abolished prince of Southern Chen, what we value more is that Chen Yin is the son raised by Empress Shen herself. ”
