Jinju Gaohuan Mansion.

After listening to Sun Teng's narration, Gao Huan smiled easily, "Okay, since Er Zhu Zhao has created his own grave this time, I will wait and see what happens to him." ”

Sun Teng touched his cheeks, picked up the tea lid with his backhand, closed the tea cup from a high place, and listened to the crisp sound of "clang", "Everything is expected by the general, and it is easy to disintegrate the Erzhu family." ”

"Erzhu Zhaozhen regarded me as his Erzhu family slave, casually in a good dream, what dream he dreamed that he and his ancestors climbed the highlands together, the cultivated land around was all ripe, only a few Ma Lanhua remained, he could pull it out at will, that is, he expected that this battle would be won, so I asked me to raise troops in Luoyang. I'm Gao Huan, the three-year-old kid who let him take charge of the country in a few words? Gao Huan was disdainful, "By the way, did Lou Zhao come back?" ”

Sun Teng calculated the time, "Calculate the day, Lord Lou should come back, the general's trick is really clever, in fact, this letter is really there, for Er Zhuzhao, it is just a piece of waste paper." But let the world see the general's fierce loyalty, that is, the palace will know it in the future, and he will have three points of respect for the general. ”

Gao Huan smiled and said, "Brother Sun, you are wrong, there is really a letter, at the beginning I thought that it was just a blank piece of paper, anyway, it couldn't reach Er Zhuzhao's hands." But then my wife reminded me, so Lou Zhao brought real documents. ”

"Oh, and Madame's credit here?"

Gao Huan nodded and said, "Yes, I was about to seal the blank paper in the letter in the study that day, and my wife came in to serve tea with me. She said to me, a husband in the world, covering the liver and gall, that is, a righteous thing, should be shown to the world, in order to get the same people to support him. ”

"Madame really has high insight and foresight, and I admire it in the lower world, the general is really a blessing, and I have such a virtuous help."

Gao Huan is not very useful for this sentence, after all, in his opinion, a man should stand in the world, and a woman does not need to be smart, as long as she can be infatuated with him and absolutely obey. He sketched an image of a person in his heart, the partner of his dreams, and he replied lightly, "Madame is good, every time I go on an expedition, I can take care of this family, so that I have no worries, and I can cultivate myself and work together to level the world." ”

Sun Teng regretted his words, quickly changed the topic, and took out Er Zhu Zhao's distress letter from his sleeve, "I have received Er Zhu Zhao's tenth letter in the past few days, I don't know if the general wants to read it." ”

"Put it first, and when the twentieth letter arrives, remember to remind me to read it." Gao Huan said casually.

"This time, Er Zhu Zhao really dared to risk the disapproval of the world, did everything to kill the king, and also killed the prince and killed the relatives, and did not even let go of his relatives. Such a ruthless and unrighteous person, he has betrayed his relatives and left, and even the people of the Erzhu family are unwilling to rescue him, and choose to watch from the wall, so he asks the general for help. However, this time, Er Zhu Zhao asked the general to go to the destruction of Sudouling, and his subordinates felt that it was an opportunity to see if they could collect the people of the six towns. ”

"Hahaha, if he Zhu Zhao was not at the end of his rope, he would not have thought of coming to me for help, his good brother He Batsheng has been harmed by him several times, and now he is a stranger. However, what Brother Sun thinks coincides with me, and if you want to take it, you must first consolidate it, so in order to get the people of the six towns, you must send troops. Gao Huan laughed heartily, he had already become a bamboo in his chest, he sniffed out a good opportunity after Er Zhurong's death, and the awakening beast waited for the opportunity to move. Now that he has been planning for a long time, his letter to dissuade the killing of the monarch has been heard all over the world, although he has been abandoned like waste paper by Erzhu Zhao, but he has won the hearts and minds of the people. Gao Huan knows that the people of the six towns who live in the north of Jin and outside the Yanmen Pass, each of them is brave and good at fighting, and he has been planning for a long time, and now the time has come, he has long wanted to do it in one fell swoop, "There are also the high-ranking brothers, they are all generals, and I am fortunate to have sent people to the door several times, but they have been shirked, and it is really not easy to say that it is not easy to move." ”

These two people were deeply favored by the first emperor, with Gao Qian as the ambassador of Hebei, and Gao Gao as the general of the Zhige, they gave thousands of silk horses and sent them to the bank of the Yellow River, so that they could return to Jizhou to recruit Xiangqu to fight against the Erzhu clan. Now the power of the two has become a force, but unfortunately Emperor Xiaozhuang has died. They have no leader, so although they have a hatred for killing the king and insulting his wife with Erzhu Zhao, they do not have a thorough understanding of the current situation, and they also question the relationship between the general and the Erzhu family, so it is difficult to summon them. In order to get Hebei, it is time for the general to add fuel to the fire. Sun Teng said with a smile.

Gao Huan saw that Sun Teng already had a plan in his chest, "Brother Sun seems to have a plan, you can say it and listen to it, whether it is the same as what I think." ”

Sun Teng said, "The letter that the general stopped from killing the emperor is the stepping stone to the gate of his Gao family, although they admire the general's loyalty, but they are still waiting, and their enmity with Er Zhuzhao still needs to be fired." That Murong Shaozong was by Er Zhuzhao's side, this person saw the problem thoroughly, and he also had a defensive heart for the general. Therefore, this fire still needs to be burned by his Erzhu family, and his subordinates thought that they could send a message to Brother Sima, so they said that there were many good horses in northern Hebei, and persuaded Erzhu Shilong to go and get it. ”

Although Gao Huan had a plan in his heart, he didn't expect Sun Teng to be a good move, this trick of killing people with a knife was really wonderful, he patted Sun Teng's shoulder, "Sure enough, Brother Sun and I have the same mind, this trip will still have Brother Lao." ”

"Don't worry, general, his subordinates will leave today." Sun Teng paused for a moment, "It's just that the palace over there needs subordinates to do a little bit or two?" ”

"Although the queen is grounded in the Jiafu Palace, after all, she is the eldest daughter of the general of Tianzhu, thinking that food and clothing are not short, but this mood is uncomfortable, what she needs is not gold and silver, but comfort. Now the security in the Taiyuan palace is also strict, if you spend a lot of money to get a letter from the princess, that is what the queen wants most. Gao Huan gently pinched the piece of Liuyun Baifu jade pendant hidden in the jade belt, and he glanced at Sun Teng meaningfully.

Sun Teng understood, Gao Huan was about to say more, when he heard the laughter in the side hall, Gao Huan couldn't help but be attracted, leaving Sun Teng to sit for a while, and moved to the side hall by himself. In the hall, Lou Zhaojun and his two concubines Wang Niang and Mu Niang were embroidering a picture of the snow scene in the north, and the good silk satin was matched with the silk thread transported from Suzhou and Hangzhou. Gao Cheng, Gao Yang, Gao Jun (Wang Niang's son) and Gao Yan (Mu Niang's son) chased and played beside them, the fourth son Gao Yan was only more than two years old, and he couldn't catch up with the other three brothers, crying angrily and throwing himself into his mother's arms, who knew that this stirring and messing up the silk threads in the basket. Lou Zhaojun arranged to make the embroidery today, but unexpectedly there was a mess in the middle of the rush, and the anxious Mu Niang hurriedly hugged her son to apologize to Lou Zhaojun and begged for forgiveness.

Lou Zhaojun was generous and generous, she asked Su Mian to help Mu Niang, who was trembling with fright, and comforted her softly, "It's normal for children to make trouble, you look like a frightened bird, don't scare Yan'er." As she was talking, she raised her eyes and saw that Gao Huan had already entered the hall, she smiled and got up to greet her, "The husband is not in the front hall, why did he come to this side hall, is it because of the noise that I disturbed the husband?" ”

Gao Cheng was old after all, and when he saw his father coming, he took the lead to say goodbye, "Father, it is the sons who are unfilial, and they disturb their father by frolicking, and I hope that my father will forgive my sins." ”

Gao Huan took Gao Cheng by the hand, touched his head again, and said with a loving smile, "It's not that you disturbed my father, it's that my father is busy with things, and I want to come and see your excitement." ”

Lou Zhaojun said with a smile, "What's the excitement, it's just a few children fighting, but it's a pity that these silk threads are all messed up." Su Mian, you will tell Yue'er to go to the embroidery workshop to buy some later, and use it in a hurry, it must be completed tonight. ”

"Recently, there has been no birthday of a high-ranking lady, why is Mrs. embroidering so anxious?" Gao Huan asked in surprise.

Lou Zhaojun smiled, "It's not a good thing, but I think it would be good if I could solve people's worries." ”

"Oh, what embroidery can solve people's worries, and whose thoughts can be solved?" Gao Huan put his arm around Lou Zhaojun's shoulders and came to the embroidery to take a closer look, the embroidery has been achieved, but it is just a subtle addition to the needle coloring. I saw that although this is a silk line outline, the outline of the mountains and rivers is magnificent, and the rare birds at the needle roller are lifelike, jumping on the silk silk, making people have the feeling of overlooking the mountains. Looking closely, Gao Huan couldn't help but be surprised, "The beauty of this mountain and river, like the scenery of Erzhu River, why is Madame?" ”

Lou Zhaojun smiled and lightly put his hand on Gao Huan's waist, and said intentionally, "The suffering in the world is nothing more than the loss of her father, husband, and son. In the depths of the high wall, what is the sustenance, but it just makes her mind move, and she no longer has nothing to sustenance. These are just my blind thoughts, and I don't know if I am in the same state of mind. ”

Gao Huan knew in his heart that Lou Zhaojun was referring to Ying'e, and although he was grateful for her generosity, he also felt a little embarrassed, "Madame is kind-hearted and always sends charcoal in the snow." ”

"I'm just getting the carbon ready and letting my husband deliver it." Lou Zhaojun said lightly, "I'm counting the days, it's time for my husband to help each other, so I'll take them to do this embroidery work, and let's take it with me tomorrow." ”

Gao Huan didn't want to continue the topic, nodded his head randomly, looked at the pile of messy lines and wanted to change the topic, just when the four sons were there, he pointed to the line, "Look at the problem for your mother, now this problem is still for you, for the father to let you untie this silk thread, half an hour, those who complete it will be rewarded, and those who do not complete it will be punished for copying "Liutao". ”

The four children looked at each other, which was originally a playful act, but now it has become an exam question, but they don't dare to disobey their father's wishes, and take over the messy thread that Sumian gave to each person. Lou Zhaojun knew what Gao Huan meant, and his eyes comforted the two anxious concubines, and sat down with Gao Huan to watch the actions of the four children.

I saw Gao Cheng come to the candle flame, carefully observe the chaos, and look for the thread little by little. Gao Jun and Gao Yan frowned and stood at a loss as they held the thread, their eyes helpless and begging their mothers for help.

Gao Huan looked at Gao Yang and didn't move, holding the thread ball and watching the brothers scratch their ears and cheeks, smirking on the side, he asked curiously, "Second brother, your brothers have started to take the exam, why don't you move?" ”

Gao Cheng and Gao Yang were both born to Gao Huan and Lou Zhaojun, Gao Cheng inherited the appearance of his parents, and his appearance was extraordinary, but this Gao Yang was dark-skinned, his cheeks were huge and drooping on both sides, he was covered in ringworm, and his ankle bones were deformed, which was simply extremely ugly.

Gao Yang saw his father's inquiry, but he didn't answer, he sucked the snot that was about to fall to his feet, looked around, walked straight to the door, and stretched out his hand to grab the sword of the guard at the door. The sword was very heavy, Gao Yang dragged the sword with both hands to the hall, put the thread ball on the ground, and slashed it with a sword, and the thread group was broken immediately. Gao Yang's eyes were fierce, and he said, "Those who are in chaos will be killed, why bother?" ”

Lou Zhaojun saw Gao Yang's fierce expression, and Gao Yan was so frightened that he cried, and couldn't help but say angrily, "If you are so young, you are so angry, you must not be my Lou Zhaojun's child." ”

Gao Huan was overjoyed, bent down to take the sword in Gao Yang's hand and handed it back to the guards, and said to Lou Zhaojun, "Sure enough, it's my Gao Huan's son, hahaha, Madame is very well educated." Someone is coming, and the horse Bawu from Hebei will be sent to the second young master tomorrow. ”

Mu Niang hugged her crying and trembling son and felt aggrieved, "General, Yan'er is timid, the concubine will take him back first." ”

Lou Zhaojun bowed his head and said, "Go ahead, it's pitiful, it's all Yang'er who is too rough and shocks the child." After speaking, he glanced at Wang Niang, "Cheng'er, take your younger brothers down." ”

Wang Niang got up with interest, pulled Gao Jun, who was still studying the line group, and blessed Gao Huan and Lou Zhaojun, "The concubine also retreated." ”

The candlelight in the hall was flickering, and Lou Zhaojun gently snuggled in Gao Huan's arms, "Husband, I know that you have lofty ambitions, and you can't know it, but her heart is too bitter, don't get involved in this political chaos anymore." ”

"I can't hide anything from you, so I won't hide it from you. I respected her, took pity on her, and never dared to blaspheme. I just felt that she was too bitter and wanted to take her out of the palace and send her back to Erzhuchuan. Gao Huan's eyes were a little fluttering.

Lou Zhaojun smiled, put his left hand lightly on Gao Huan's waist, and took out a blue tassel with his right hand, "The jade tassel is old, I re-knitted one last night, how can the general look good?" ”

Gao Huan smiled and whispered in his ear, "I can't hide anything from Mrs., Gao Huan can't escape from Mrs. in this life." ”

Lou Zhaojun took the opportunity to stuff the tassel into Gao Huan's waist, "I just understand you, my husband has always been an eagle in the sky in my heart, I can only spread my wings, how to restrain it, I just want to be a branch under my husband's feet, a place for my husband to rest when he is tired." ”

"No, you are the female eagle that soars with me, and the mountains and rivers under the sky are my blood, and I share your glory." Gao Huan hugged Lou Zhaojun hard, and his tone was firm. He looked at the graying sky outside the window, his eyes were far away, and it seemed that everywhere he looked was the country he wanted to clean up. "Madam, Brother Sun is still waiting for me in the study, you ordered the kitchen to make some wine and food and send them to the study, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest tonight."

"Husband's body is important, I will order the kitchen to stew a ginseng black chicken Yangrong soup, and then make some delicious side dishes, the Xinyang Maojian sent by General Hou two days ago looks very good, and I will send it to you in a while." Lou Zhaojun continued, "Lord Sun's wife has been bedridden since she had a miscarriage last time and injured her body. Coincidentally, I found a doctor the day before yesterday, and I heard that I had been a royal doctor in the palace before, so I had asked Su Mian to invite him and sent him directly to Sun's mansion. ”

"Madame always thinks about everything, how can I marry a good wife like this?" Gao Huan was grateful, retreated outside the house, looked at the little girl Gao Qiao behind him, and stuffed the tassels woven by Lou Zhaojun into his hand, Gao Qiao understood and hid it in his sleeve.
