The next day, that is, on the fourteenth day of the first month, Chen Yuankang entered the palace to face the saint, and gave Gao Cheng an idea, still assassinated, but it was not Xiao Miaochun, but during Gao Cheng's inspection of Jingzhou, he was assassinated, and the assassin was captured on the spot.

Gao Cheng also knows that excuses are not easy to find, but he can't be so careless, now that the territory of Nanliang is in chaos, how can he provoke Northern Qi again.

So he asked Chen Yuankang to go back and continue to think, and in the next few days, Chen Yuankang, Wang Hong, and Wang Jun took turns to enter the palace and express their thoughts, and finally Gao Cheng chose Xiao Yixing's bad excuse for assassination.

There is really no more suitable excuse, I can't say that I see that the people of Jiangnan are not happy, so I hang the people and fight the crime, the words are righteous and awe-inspiring, but what do the people of Rouran and Tuyuhun think.

In any case, King Xiao Gao can't be the first to tear up the peace talks, and Xiao Yi stabbed him, although this excuse is rotten, as long as he bites him to death, it is difficult for the other party to prove his innocence.

Just when Gao Cheng was full of ambition and prepared to start a physical exchange with Xiao Yi after spring ploughing, a war report came from the northeast, after Silla and Baekje took advantage of the civil strife in Goguryeo to jointly attack the Han River valley, and then Silla attacked Baekje and occupied the Han River alone.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

The lord of Baekje, Buyeo Myeong, was not angry, led his troops to attack Silla, and was ambushed at Guansan Fortress, Baekje was defeated, Buyeo Myeongju was captured and killed by the Silla, and more than 30,000 soldiers were killed in the battle.

The crown prince Fuyuchang, who went out with the army, fled back to Baekje and became the king of Weide, and the defeat of Guanshan Fortress weakened the power of the Baekje king, and the Liuzuoping Council controlled by the eight clans with the surnames of Sha, Yan, Xie and Zhen dominated the government from then on.

Gao Cheng didn't care about the rise and fall of the royal power in Baekje, he cared about the Silla Baekje alliance not only broken, but also formed a mortal enemy, fortunately, now that Goguryeo's own internal strife has not been settled, if he raises troops to the south again, he is afraid that Silla Baekje will definitely not join forces to resist the enemy again.

At the same time, Bald Tujia, who was transporting the coffin of the Worm Princess, finally arrived at the court of Rouran.

Anapu did not say anything special about his daughter's death, and the Western Wei Empress Yu Jiulu, who died of dystocia in the early years, was also his daughter, and he was able to accept this kind of thing calmly.

According to Gao Cheng's words, Anapu was presided over by the envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty to preside over the funeral, and the worm princess was buried with the queen's ceremony, and on the night of the burial, Anapu once again mentioned the matter of harmony, and wanted to remarry Gao Cheng with his granddaughter Yu Jiulu, who was not yet eleven years old, to continue the marriage between the two countries.

Anapu no longer has an unmarried daughter to reconcile, so he naturally hit the idea on his granddaughter, and he can't let Gao Cheng marry a second marriage, although the little Gao Wang, a good woman, may not necessarily mind.

The envoy of the Northern Qi Dynasty couldn't do anything about this matter, claiming to go back to Luoyang to tell Gao Cheng, but Anapu asked Bald Tujia to take Yu Jiulu to the south.

The reason for this eagerness is that the Turks have bared their fangs towards Rouran, and since the beginning of last year, there have been repeated clashes between herders on both sides over land with abundant water and grass.

But it really heralded the break between the Turks and Rouran, and at the end of last year, after merging the rest of the Gaoche Division, Ashina Civil Engineering was strong and strong, and sent an envoy to ask Rouran for marriage, but was rejected by Anapu, he knew that the ambition of the Turkic wolf, which could be satisfied by marrying a woman.

Anapu sent people to the Turks to rebuke Ashina Tumen:

'How dare you say such a marriage proposal!' ’

Ashina Tumen, who was exposed to the old bottom, was annoyed and angry, and killed the Rouran envoy, and the Turks rebelled, and now the two sides are fighting fiercely, preparing to fight for the hegemony of the steppe.

And Anapu received the news that the Turks were sending the daughter of Ashina Tumen to the south, and wanted to settle the relationship with the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the worm princess, who was the queen of Daqi, died at this time, so Anapu was not in a hurry.

Bald Tujia did not stay in the court of Rouran for a long time, and at the urging of Anapu, he set off for the south with Anapu's granddaughter Yu Jiulu on the second day.

Gao Cheng was speechless when he got the news, of course he knew who Yu Jiulu Dilian was, in the original time and space, she signed a marriage contract with Gao Zhan at the age of four, married Gao Zhan at the age of six, and died at the age of twelve, and she was also a poor person.

Maybe she will not die early if she has taken care of her body in this life, but Princess Worm is newly mourned and will marry her niece, what is it.

But what he didn't expect was that the Turkic mission came to Luoyang, and at the same time as the marriage, he asked Ashina Tumen to marry his eldest daughter Gao Mi, which made Gao Cheng angry enough.

Gao Mi will not be twelve years old until April this year, you Ashina Tumen is a lot older, you have to enter the earth in three years, and you dare to beat his daughter's idea, which makes Gao Cheng, who is used to spoiling his daughter, furious, and immediately drove the Turkic mission out of Luoyang, and even ruined the marriage contract with the daughter of Ashina Tumen.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is just a matter of playing on the topic, in the early years, the Turks and Rouran did not openly oppose each other, he needed to encircle the Turks and prevent them from causing trouble behind him.

Now that the Turks have killed the envoy of Rouran, there is no room for maneuver between the two sides, and it is even more impossible for the Turks to risk a sneak attack by Rouran to harass the Northern Qi frontier, and Gao Cheng took this opportunity to draw a clear line with the Turks, and there is also a reason to send troops to help Rouran in the future.

Anapu really didn't have anything to say to him, married his daughter and married his granddaughter, the border between the two countries has not suffered a military disaster since the peace of the two countries, compared with the vigorous Turks, it is obviously more in Gao Cheng's interests to continue to occupy the steppe, otherwise the future southern expedition will not be at ease.

After Bald Tujia returned to Luoyang, Gao Cheng placed the eleven-year-old Yu Jiulu in Yanran Pavilion, just like her aunt Princess Worm, who had to be raised here until she was sixteen years old before she could enter the palace to complete her marriage.

The Turkic envoy returned in defeat, and the Rouran envoy departed happily, and the time had come to March 26, the second year of Zhaode (549).

Not mentioning how Ashina Tumen would react when he found out, Gao Cheng issued an edict announcing that he would inspect Henan and Huainan.

Gao Cheng's patrol is nothing new, when he first took over as King of Qi, he wandered around for a year.

This time it is common to mobilize 100,000 foot riders to accompany the car, and the Son of Heaven does not pay attention to a prestige when he inspects, but in the edict, there are 50,000 Henan Prefecture soldiers accompanying him, which is something that has never been done before.

When will King Xiao Gao go out on patrol and bring the state and county soldiers with him, these people will either defend the city or serve as siege cannon fodder, who is willing to take care of their food and drink during the inspection.

Later, Gao Cheng recruited 200,000 people to gather in Luoyang in the name of repairing the mausoleum for himself, which made many people smell the strangeness.

As we all know, Gao Cheng is the most taboo about life and death, and the tomb he presided over for Gao Huan is extremely simple, but he recruited 200,000 people to repair the mausoleum, which makes people feel that filial piety is a bit too real.
