As the existence of Hou Jing in the literal sense, Xiao Miaochun is undoubtedly a woman who is soft on the outside and rigid on the inside.

In order to please Hou Jing, his father Xiao Gang married the fourteen-year-old to Hou Jing as his wife, but Hou Jing still poisoned Xiao Gang to death.

After Hou Jing was defeated, fifteen-year-old Xiao Miaochun heard that he had been dismembered, and hurriedly sent someone to share flesh and blood for her, swallowed it, and chewed it all over.

Of course, Xiao Gao Wang and Xiao Miaochun haven't formed such a deep hatred, so they don't have to worry about being eaten by the pillow person in the middle of the night.

But twelve-year-old Xiao Miaochun's impression of Gao Cheng is really not much better, who let the unvirtuous Northern Qi emperor actually raise troops to march south on the grounds that his marriage proposal was rejected and the Liang people insulted him.

As the front line continued to lose, the brothers and sisters all blamed Xiao Miaochun for the blame, thinking that she was in trouble.

History is always strikingly similar, and when there is no enemy in the end, some people will always vent their anger on the weak.

For example, after World War II, French men liquidated women who had been committed to the German army, beat them, verbally abused them, shaved their hair and paraded them in the streets, such courage was never felt during the German occupation.

Xiao Miaochun was angry among her brothers and sisters, but she didn't take down anyone to be angry, she just blamed all the faults on Gao Cheng's head, but whoever made Gao Cheng do things really not authentically.

Not to mention the rumors about Gao Cheng's good wife, it highlights a golden jade outside, ruined in it, and filthy inside.

That's it, how can Xiao Miaochun have a good impression of him.

Therefore, when Xiao Gang, the prince of Nanliang, mentioned the matter of harmony to his daughter, Xiao Miaochun, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, contradicted his father unusually, and said angrily:

"My daughter doesn't marry!"

Xiao Gang was also reluctant to send his most beloved daughter into the tiger's mouth, but he couldn't put his beak in this matter, and even if he sat in Xiao Yan's seat, in order to stop the war with Northern Qi, he had to endure the pain of cutting his love, so he was ruthless:

"Marriage is a major event, the order of your parents, how can you decide whether to marry or not."

But seeing his daughter crying with pear blossoms and rain, Xiao Gang relented again, lowered his posture, and persuaded him with kind words:

"My father has always spoiled you, if you don't help yourself, how can you be willing to see you being bullied by thieves, but now the situation is difficult, Qi Kou is fierce, 30,000 soldiers were captured Shouyang, 30,000 soldiers were trapped in Hefei, you are the princess of Daliang, the children of the Xiao family, you were born to enjoy glory and wealth, and you should also take on the heavy responsibility for this society."

Xiao Miaochun didn't know why so many men in the family wanted her, a twelve-year-old girl, to take on this burden.

But looking at Xiao Gang's sad face, she also knew that her father was not to blame for this matter, but the decision of her grandfather, the high thief, and the princes of the court, even if her father was the prince of Daliang, she could not disobey.

"My daughter knows."

Xiao Miaochun said darkly.

Xiao Gang saw that his beloved daughter was relieved, a smile appeared on his face, stroked her little head, and praised her repeatedly.

However, Xiao Miaochun secretly made up her mind:

If a thief dares to insult me, I will stab him with a hairpin. Well, you can't stab him in the chest, if you stab him to death, and the Qi people have to use an excuse to commit crimes, I will stab him in the ass! ’

Of course, Xiao Gao Wang didn't know that the little daughter-in-law who had not yet entered the door was already thinking about giving him two injections on his buttocks, but such a little fun of acupuncture and moxibustion, Gao Cheng would definitely not be able to enjoy it in the short term, after all, the first rule of the traverser was conventional: no copper smelting.

Of course, if you raise it until you are an adult, it doesn't count, he has always done it like this.

In the first year of Zhaode (548), on the seventh day of the ninth month, the envoy of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Wang Gaoyue of Qinghe County, and the envoy of the Southern Liang Dynasty, Xiao Yuanzao, the Marquis of Xichang, signed an agreement in Liyang, stipulating that the two countries would make a truce, and the Northern Qi army would first open the road, so that the 30,000 defenders of Hefei would go south on the ninth day of September, and the Northern Qi would enter Hefei again.

At the beginning of the negotiation, the Hefei soldiers were already packing their bags, so naturally there was no need to spend too much time.

On the eighth day of September, the news of the agreement reached reached Hefei, and the Northern Qi soldiers were ordered by Gao Cheng to retreat thirty miles, and on the ninth day of September, the 30,000 defenders of Hefei were led by Xiao Fan, the assassin of Hezhou, and Lan Qin, the general who defended the city, to cross the river to the south.

Prior to this, Lan Qin begged for the body of his eldest son Lan Xiali, who was to die in the battle in Liyang, and Gao Cheng sold the head to Lan Qin at a friendly price of 100 pieces of cloth.

It's really not that he doesn't give the whole corpse, when Gao Yue broke the city, the governor under his command killed Lan Xiali, and cut off the head with his hand, and the stomach was also picked up, he really couldn't recognize the body, if it was a whole corpse, he would rush to the friendship between the Lan family and him, let alone a thousand horses, and he was not allowed to bargain.

When the defenders of Hefei retreated, the people in the city also had to evacuate with them, but they were chased back by the cavalry of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Gao Cheng ordered all these people to be sent to Liaozhou Kenbian.

Xiao Yuanzao angrily went to find Gao Yue, but Gao Yue threw the content of the peace agreement in his face, and Northern Qi only agreed to let the Hefei defenders leave, when did he promise the people to go with him, Xiao Yuanzao was speechless, and had to urge to redeem the prisoners as soon as possible.

Gao Cheng began to be in a hurry to dismiss the people on the eighth day of September, and Nanliang was also anxious to return the 30,000 captives.

In fact, there were more than 30,000 captives in the hands of Northern Qi, and there were also state and county soldiers from other states and counties.

It's just that the state and county soldiers basically belong to the locals of Huainan, and Huainan is included in the rule of the Northern Qi, so naturally there is no reason to be ransomed by the Southern Liang to the south of the Yangtze River, even if Gao Cheng is willing to sell, he has to count the family rolls together, and the price is high.

On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, on the day when Nanliang withdrew from Hefei, Gao Cheng led the army to settle in, which lasted more than three months since then, and the north completely took the land of Huainan.

On September 11, the Northern Qi and Southern Liang will ransom the prisoners under Liyang City, Gao Cheng has a prisoner and a piece of cloth, which can be called the price of conscience, the reason why he is so generous is mainly because Gao Cheng played a small trick.

The Southern Liang prisoners of war were not mistreated when they were imprisoned in Shouyang, but they were often preached, popularizing the Juntian policy in the north, and the soldiers from the middle and lower ranks of the Northern Qi army appeared to speak.

When they heard that they were also soldiers, that the Northern Qi soldiers had more than 100 acres of land at home, hired people to farm, or rented out, and that they had high military salaries, the prisoners of war in Southern Liang instantly became psychologically unbalanced.

Due to the vicious competition set off by Gao Cheng, not only Yuwentai, but even Xiao Yan began to pay military salaries, but it was definitely not as generous as Gao's.

Gao Cheng's treatment of these Xianbei soldiers can really be regarded as a love offering in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, otherwise they would not have taken all the northern lands, and the country would have maintained the scale of more than 300,000 soldiers, and no matter how much it is, it really can't afford to raise more.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Southern Liang, the family has more than 100 acres of land, or even more, in the north, women can also share the land, maybe the people in some places can not get the land in full according to the law of Juntian, but Gao Cheng always gives priority to ensuring the needs of the soldiers.

Such generous treatment made many Southern Liang soldiers secretly ask Shouyang to stay in Jiangbei and let the Northern Qi bring their family rolls, and they were willing to work for the Gao family.

Hu Lujin then reported to Gao Cheng, but Xiao Gaowang, as Xiao Yan's grandson-in-law, and his father-in-law was the prince of Nanliang, how could he dig into the corner of his in-laws' house, and refused on the grounds that the two sides had an agreement.
