Chapter 8: The Human Heart (4)

"Chinese army, raise your shield on the spot!!"

"Left wing, forward insertion!"

"Right flank, diagonally forward fifty steps, left spin, throw spear!"

"Ranger ......"

The 5,000 Yanai pro-army, under the command of the banner and the horn drum, kept advancing and retreating, rotating left and right. The murderous aura that rose from the ground permeated the entire school field.

"Hmm!" Qi King Gao Xingzhou stroked his beard with satisfaction, and his slightly bulging belly was sprinkled with golden sunlight.

These 5,000 elites dressed in heavy armor and holding sharp weapons are the capital of his life. It is also a solid backing to ensure the prosperity of the Gao family. I think that back then, Zelu Jiedu made Chang Si with five hundred brothers, and he was able to sweep half of the east of the river. Now, the elite under his Gao Xing Zhou is ten times that of Chang Si, even if the world changes color again, who dares to force him to bend his knees?

"Zhongjun, take twenty steps forward, split three times!!"

"Left flank, stay put, archers ready to fire!"

"Right flank, take ten steps back, form a formation!"

"Ranger ......"

Seeing that his prince was satisfied, the deputy commander of the Yanei pro-army, who was in charge of the drill of the soldiers and horses, made Gao Xingjian shout harder and harder. The heralds around him quickly turned his orders into flag movements and drums, which clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

"Kill, kill, kill!" On the school field, the roar was like a stormy wave. Every soldier who participated in the school review used his strength to breastfeed, lest his performance be unsatisfactory, and he was sorry for the ordinary support of Prince Qi.

Once selected into the pro-army, regardless of the general, they will receive double salary. During the New Year's holidays, there is also a portion of pork and rice grains as a reward. When the family encounters red and white things, they don't need to open their mouths at all, and the steward of the palace will naturally send a small servant to help with money. Therefore, every pro-soldier has no longer regarded his life as his own from the day he entered the camp. As long as the prince gives an order, the sword mountain and the sea of fire will never spin.

"Hmm!" Seeing that the brothers were all in good spirits, Gao Xingzhou became more and more proud.

In terms of territory, now he is high and Zhou, ranking firmly in the top three among the princes. In terms of strength, even if you don't count the eldest son Gao Huaide, who has already opened a mansion alone, the Gao family is not inferior to the Chang family, which ranks fourth. In terms of connections and qualifications, except for the old wolf Fu Yanqing, there is no one who can compare with him Gao Xingzhou. He was close to the emperor Guo Wei, the eldest son and the prince had a good relationship, the second daughter also married the captain of the dynasty, and the guards and the army commanded Wang Yin's eldest son Wang Dong, and gave birth to the eldest grandson Wang Xiong.

Thinking of Wang Yin, the prince of his own family who held the power of the forbidden army, Gao Xingzhou's face suddenly flashed a trace of gloom. The daughter and son-in-law have a deep relationship, and their status in the Wang family is extremely transcendent. Wang Yin, the prince of Taiwei's family, and he, the king of Qi, can be regarded as old brothers who have been friends for many years, and they cherish each other. If there is no accident, within 20 years, the Wang and Gao families can join forces to become a force that no one can lose in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and sit back and watch the changes in the world.

However, this thought, accidents are the norm, and no accidents are unusual. Last month, Taiwei Wang Yin actually messed up after drinking, and took the initiative to let Wang Rou, the pearl of his own palm, marry the general of the forbidden army, and Li Chongjin, the head of the Da Nei capital and the head of the Ma Budu army, to fill the house!

You must know that Li Chongjin, the head of the Da Nei capital inspection and the head of the Ma Budu army, is Guo Wei's sister and the son of the eldest princess of Fuqing. The blood relationship with Emperor Guo Wei is several points closer than that of the crown prince Chai Rong! And the privy envoy Wang Jun has always admired Li Chongjin's generosity and regarded him as a disciple and protégé. In the past two years, the crown prince Chai Rong has been busy managing the Yellow River outside, and it is rare to return to Bianliang once. Li Du checked, and he became a person who frequently entered and exited the palace. not only replaced Chai Rong Chenghuan under Guo Wei's knees, but also promoted talents for the country many times, and each recommendation was approved by Guo Wei.

If Li Chongjin, with Wang Jun's support, can go one step further! Every time he thinks of this section, Gao Xingzhou's heart will twitch.

The power of heaven is unpredictable, and people's hearts are even more unpredictable. Over the years, he can see that the emperor has been temporarily replaced. Just like when Shi Jingjiao's body was not cold, the guards and pro-army all commanded Jing Yanguang, and immediately supported Shi Chonggui to replace the crown prince Shi Chongrui. Just like Liu Zhiyuan left Bianliang with his front foot, the crown prince Liu Chengxun was personally sent to the west by his younger brother Liu Chengyou. If the Gao family didn't make preparations as soon as possible, once some plans became a fact......

"Lord Wang, the eldest prince is back!" a veteran hurriedly ran up to the viewing platform and whispered in Gao Xingzhou's ear.

"Ahh

"But, but when the prince sent someone to inform the eldest prince, he said that he was talking about falling off the horse...... "The old general was trained to sweat on his sideburns, lowered his head, and carefully added.

"Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu recovers quickly, can't you?" Gao Xingzhou's face turned red, and his roar suddenly became louder and louder, "You don't have to worry about this, go and call him over to Lao Tzu." Could it be that if Lao Tzu is not sick, he can learn from Dayu to control the water, and the three countries will not enter?"

The veteran couldn't stop muttering in his heart, but he didn't have the courage to publicly refute Gao Xingzhou's words, so he saluted and hurried away.

Not long after, Gao Huaide arrived with a sweaty head. Seeing his father standing intact on the viewing platform, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Hurriedly bowed to the ground and shouted loudly: "Father, the unfilial son is back." I wish my father good health and prosperity!"

Gao Xingzhou didn't bother to look at his son, so he pulled his legs and walked towards the viewing platform, even if he continued to count, "Since you like to carry sandbags so much, you should live on the embankment of the Yellow River." Just right, get your brother back. lest the old man have two sons, but he has to do everything himself. I'm sick and in pain, and I can't even find anyone who delivers medicine!"

"Father, Father, the King is angry. I, I just, just dropped by and had a look. Really, I really didn't mean to stay outside and not come back!" Gao Huaide didn't dare to talk back, and followed behind his father with his head drooped, explaining with a smiling face.

"Yes, it's still early in dark. You can also have a good time!" Gao Xingzhou didn't plan to reason with his son today, turned his head, pointed at the other party's nose and scolded, "Look at you, where do you look like a festival envoy with a heavy army?

"Father, I didn't carry sandbags by myself. "Gao Huaide is also a town festival envoy, and he can't stand his father in front of so many people, and he can't get off the stage. Stamped his feet and explained with a face full of grievances. "Besides, besides, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has personally ......"

"The prince is the prince, you are you!" Gao Xingzhou glared at Gao Huaide fiercely, turned over and jumped on horseback, and walked away. "Think about it, what is wrong with you, you can't think clearly, don't go home to see me!"

"Ah......" I had never seen my father so cold to him, Gao Huaide was stunned, his face was full of disbelief.

Gao Xingzhou didn't want to give his son more opportunities to explain, so he hurried up and rushed all the way back to the mansion. He threw his mount into the hands of the guards, and strode back to the back house, took off his helmet, went to the robe, untied his armor, and threw the fragments of his whole body all over the ground.

The servants and concubines in the back house did not dare to come forward to touch his moldy head, so they hurriedly went to the Buddhist hall and moved the Yipin Lady Wang. Wang was also confused by her husband's sudden anger. Stubbornly stepped forward and persuaded in a low voice, "Master, what's wrong with you today? Isn't it normal for a child to grow up and have a group of friends of his own? Besides, he made friends with the crown prince and the champion of the dynasty, both of whom are ......."

"You know how to do it as a woman!" Gao Xing had nowhere to vent the evil fire in his stomach on Monday, pricked up his eyes, and scolded loudly. Seeing the stunned and aggrieved face of his old wife Wang, his heart suddenly softened again, slowed down his tone, and added in a low voice, "Do you think I'm really angry that he ran to the river beach to help the prince carry sandbags? A good person can be a friend, but he is destined not to be a father-in-law, a child, I say this, do you understand or not?"
