Bohai County, the Western Han Dynasty was placed in the Marquis of Tiao, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty once promoted the general Zhou Yafu as the Marquis, and it was also based on the order that it was changed to Qi County during the Kaihuang period of Sui Dynasty, and moved to Jing County, Hebei Province. When it comes to Bohai County, we have to mention a famous local family--- Bohai Gao.

Bohai Gao's refers to the Gao's county that originated in Bohai County in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Since the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, known as "the world's higher than the Bohai Sea", the Bohai Gao clan was formed at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and gradually flourished in the Western Jin Dynasty, and formed Bohai, Yuyang, Liaodong, Guangling, Henan and other branches.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Bohai Gao clan had become the representative of the gate lord clan in Shandong (referring to the east of Taihang Mountain), and entered the heyday, controlling the politics of the Northern Wei and Eastern Wei dynasties, and establishing the Northern Qi regime.

Gao Huan and Gao Cheng, who were born in Bohaicheng (now Jingxian County, Hebei), successively served as the prime minister of the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the king of Bohai, and controlled the military and political power of the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

Gao Cheng's younger brother Gao Yang, as Xiangguo and King of Qi, accepted the Zen concession of Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty and became the founding monarch of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and was the Emperor Wenxuan (529-559) of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Until the Sui Dynasty, the representative of the Gao clan was Gao Gong (because Gao Gong has been introduced too much above, I will not repeat it here), until Gao Gong died, and the Bohai Gao clan gradually declined.

However, in the seventh year of the Sui Dynasty (611 AD), Gao Shida, a native of Beixian County, led the people to launch the Qinghe Uprising and met with Dou Jiande, who proclaimed himself the Duke of the East China Sea. After occupying Chuzhou, he proclaimed himself the king of Jizhou. However, in the twelfth year of Sui (616), Gao Shida led the crowd to attack Zhuo County, and after Kecheng, he killed Guo Xuan, the general guard of Zhuo County, and did not accept Dou Jiande's strategy of mobile combat and avoiding the attack.

At that time, Emperor Yang of Sui sent Duan Da to conquer and suppress, who knew that Duan Da had been defeated repeatedly, and in desperation, Yang Guang issued an edict to recall Yang Yichen, who was far away in Liaodong, and ordered him to send troops to exterminate Gao Shida's department.

Yang Yichen led the Liaodong Army under his command to win a battle, broke Gao Shida's department, and personally killed Gao Shida on the battlefield.

In view of the fact that there was such a 'thief' as Gao Shida in Beixian County, so far Beixian County was listed as one of the key monitoring objects by the imperial court, until Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty went to Jiangdu to die, and the people in the area of Beixian County gradually returned to their former lives.

Later, Dou Jiande developed and grew in Shandong and Hebei, and Zhuoxian was classified into Dou Jiande's sphere of influence.

At this time, on the official road leading to Haixian, Chu Mofeng and Shi Hanshuang rode lightly and rushed towards Guxian, along the way, in order to save time, the two crossed the Yellow River east into Hedong to replenish their supplies, and then hired a boat from the ferry port of Hedong County to go east to Guxian.

When the two arrived in Guxian County, it was already five days later, and after Chu Mofeng and Shi Hanshuang got off the boat, they instructed the boatman to wait at the ferry, and then rode their horses towards the ancestral house in Guxian.

At this time, the county is not as prosperous as it was back then, after years of war, most of the people in the county have already moved their families, except for some old people, there is only the Gao family.

Walking into the gate of the county seat of Fuxian, Chu Mofeng was surprised to find that the soldiers in charge of the investigation at the gate of the city were still wearing the clothes of Dou Jiande's department, stuffed some silver coins and presented the documents, Chu Mofeng and Shi Hanshuang were able to successfully clear the customs and enter the county seat.

The two of them came to the ancestral house of the Gao family with a familiar car, looking at the paint that had already been mottled on the door, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but burst into tears, he couldn't return from being away all the year round, but he never thought that the living conditions at home were so difficult, remembering that he was now in five mansions, and he didn't know how much money he had, but he never sent a letter to his family.

Thinking of this, Chu Mofeng turned over and stepped forward, stretched out his hand to push open the door and walked in, and Shi Hanshuang, who was accompanying him, saw this and hurriedly followed Chu Mofeng's footsteps into the Gao Mansion.

As soon as he stepped into the Gaofu compound, a person hurriedly ran over, and hit his head in Chu Mofeng's arms, and after being hit by this person, Chu Mofeng staggered back a few steps, and grabbed this person and said, "Who is this?

I saw this person raise his head and look at Chu Mofeng and shouted: "Little brother, is it you, little brother, why are you back?" Then this person turned around and ran towards the courtyard, shouting excitedly as he ran: "Mother, second brother, eldest sister, come out quickly, see who is back?"

Chu Mofeng fixed his eyes and saw that the reckless person before turned out to be his third brother Gao Biaoren, and hurriedly dragged Shi Hanshuang towards the inner courtyard.

At this time, Chu Mofeng's mother, Mrs. Heba, and eldest sister Gao Liangdi were talking in the house, and when they heard Gao Biaoren's shout, they couldn't help frowning, and said to Gao Liangdi: "Liangdi, why is your second brother so reckless, how can you be such a big person, you are a sister who often mentions him and Hongyi, although our Gao family has declined, but the rules that should be obeyed must be followed." ”

And Gao Liangdi on the side was already attracted by the content of Gao Biaoren's shouting, and didn't hear his mother's preaching at all, Gao Biaoren outside shouted three times in succession, and Gao Liangdi was finally convinced that he had heard correctly, and then turned his head and said to Mrs. Horbal with tears in her eyes: "Mother, didn't you hear what the second brother shouted?"

Mrs. Herba picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of tea and said, "You girl, I didn't listen to you here, but was hooked by your brother's shouting.

Looking at Gao Liangdi, who was full of tears, Mrs. Horba put down the teacup and asked in surprise: "Look at you, my mother just said a few words to you, why are you still crying?"

I saw Gao Liangdi grab Mrs. Heba's hand and said excitedly: "Mother, the second brother just shouted that the younger brother and younger siblings are back. ”

Hearing Gao Liangdi say the word 'little brother', Mrs. Heba stood up suddenly, hurriedly walked to the door, and was so frightened that the maid beside her hurriedly chased after her, and kept shouting: "Madam, slow down, be careful of uneven ground." ”

Stretching out his hand to open the door, he saw Gao Biaoren standing at the door and said excitedly: "Mother Qiqi, the younger brother and younger siblings are back." ”

Passing over Gao Biaoren's body, Mrs. Hubat looked up in front of her eyes, and saw a thin man leading a pretty woman straight up, looking at the man's figure, Mrs. Hubat covered her mouth and sobbed.

Since Sui Daye went to Zhangye to preside over the wedding of his youngest son in the twelfth year, it has been three years since the mother and son have not seen each other, and in the past three years, every time she looks at the second and third sons around her, Mrs. Heba sighs at the hard-won warmth, and on the other hand, she has to endure the pain of longing at night. In the dead of night, Mrs. Horbal would always think of her youngest son, who had been wandering away for many years, and did not know whether he had a place to live.

And now, the youngest son who she had been thinking about for a long time appeared in front of her like this, and the emotions that had accumulated for a long time exploded instantly, and Mrs. Heba couldn't help but burst into tears on the spot, and she couldn't stand for a while, but fortunately, Gao Liangdi and the maid behind her supported her.

Looking at the middle-aged woman on the steps with slightly pale temples, Chu Mofeng rushed over with an arrow step, knelt in front of her and kowtowed three times and said, "Mother, my son is back." And Shi Hanshuang on the side also bowed down immediately, and Yingying said: "Mother-in-law, daughter-in-law Hanshuang has come back to see you." ”

Seeing this, Mrs. Heba broke free from the support of Gao Liangdi and the maid, walked down the steps to help the two up, and said in a choked voice: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." Let's go into the house as a family to talk. After speaking, he pulled Chu Mofeng and Shi Hanshuang one by one and walked towards the house.

When everyone came to the house, Mrs. Heba placed Chu Mofeng and Shi Hanshuang on her left and right and sat down, looking at her son for a while, and looking at her daughter-in-law for a while, with a joyful expression on her face. As if remembering something, Mrs. Heba asked Chu Mofeng, "Wencheng and my son, why is it that only Shuang'er came back with you?"

"Qiqi's mother, Ziyao is in Chang'an at this time, and she is taking care of the other two ladies of her son to take care of the medical hall. ”

Hearing that Chu Mofeng talked about the other two ladies, Mrs. Heba couldn't help but glance at Shi Hanshuang, only to see Shi Hanshuang smile and said: "Mother-in-law, you don't have to look at me like this, what Wen Cheng said is true, your good son has married a total of four ladies, two princesses." ”

As soon as she heard that there was still a princess, Mrs. Heba's face turned cold and she said coldly: "Wencheng, why did you still marry a princess? Could it be that you went to work for that shameless man Yang Guang? If this is the case, you can leave me now, and I don't have you as a son." After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the gate, signaling Chu Mofeng to go out.

Shi Hanshuang on the side saw this scene and thought to himself, how could he talk about it and talk about it? Hurriedly said out loud: "Mother-in-law, you are angry, you misunderstood Wen Cheng, how could he go to kill his father and the enemy to do things?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Heba looked at Shi Hanshuang and said, "Shuang'er, you are a good boy, you tell your mother-in-law, what is going on?"

Then Shi Hanshuang moved them from Zhangye to Jinyang, and followed Li Yuan all the way to Chang'an, and the people present were surprised. As soon as Shi Hanshuang's voice fell, Mrs. Heba hurriedly walked up to Chu Mofeng, hugged him and said, "Child, Fang is the mother's fault for you, you have worked hard all these years." ”

At this time, Gao Biaoren walked in with Princess Daning, and opened his mouth to say: "Mother, you don't know yet, your youngest son is now famous in Datang, the only hussar general in Datang, and all the soldiers and horses of the entire Datang are under his command, and it is said that he has recently been promoted to the Duke of Qi." ”

Chu Mofeng on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, he had never sent the news back to Bei County, how did his third brother know? It seemed that he had guessed Chu Mofeng's thoughts, Gao Biaoren said with a smile: "Little brother, don't be foolish, for my brother to do business, you need to deal with people, these news are heard from other places." ”

At this time, Chu Mofeng suddenly realized that after all these years, he had forgotten that his third brother was once very obsessed with the way of doing business, thinking of this, Chu Mofeng smiled at Gao Biaoren and said: "I told the third brother to watch the joke, I have been on the battlefield for many years, and my vigilance has to be high." ”

Gao Biaoren smiled and waved his hand when he heard this, signaling that Chu Mofeng didn't have to mind, and then said to Mrs. Heba: "Mother, the child will go and inform the second brother and second sister-in-law to return home." After speaking, he left Princess Daning behind, and left Gaofu alone in a hurry.

Looking at Princess Daning in front of him, Chu Mofeng thought for a moment, and said to her and Gao Liangdi: "Eldest sister, third sister-in-law, there is something that the younger brother needs to tell you two. ”

I saw Gao Liangdi and Princess Daning nodded, and motioned for Chu Mofeng to continue, and then Chu Mofeng said slowly: "The person who was instructed by Yang Guang to frame Yang Yong back then is now dead, and this person is now serving under the command of Wang Shichong of Luoyang, the eastern capital, and after his younger brother and His Royal Highness the King of Qin pacify Luoyang, he will definitely bring this person to you for you to dispose of." ”

After listening to Chu Mofeng's words, Princess Daning said angrily: "Wen Cheng, is this person you are talking about the Yitong named Duan Da?"

"It's this person. Chu Mofeng nodded and said: "I assassinated him once before, but for some reason, he escaped, originally wanted to kill him through friends in the rivers and lakes, but after thinking about it, it is better for this person to cut it himself." ”

Thinking of her father who was framed and died tragically, Princess Daning couldn't help but close her eyes and said slowly: "Then I'll leave everything to the younger brother." And Gao Liangdi on the side said worriedly: "Wencheng, if this matter is inconvenient, remember not to force it, everything is based on your safety." ”

Chu Mofeng nodded, signaling Gao Liangdi to rest assured, while Mrs. Heba on the side had already pulled Shi Hanshuang to whisper, and from time to time there was a laugh from Mrs. Heba.

After a while, Gao Biaoren led Gao Hongyi and his wife back to Gaofu, and Gao Liangdi, as the eldest sister, hurriedly instructed the servant to inform the kitchen to prepare a banquet.

That night, the existing members of the Gaofu family gathered together again, and during the banquet, Mrs. Hebal raised her wine glass and said to the children: "Today, Wencheng and Shuang'er are back, and our family is reunited again, we salute your father and eldest brother with this glass of wine, and may their spirits in heaven bless us." After saying that, he slowly poured the wine in the cup on the ground in front of him, and the rest of the people hurriedly and respectfully spilled the wine on the ground when they saw this.

Then Mrs. Heba said to Chu Mofeng: "Child, you must have something to do when you come this time, everyone here is a family, you can explain your intentions in the future." ”

I saw Chu Mofeng stand up and said slowly: "Mother, eldest sister and two brothers and sisters-in-law, this time I rushed back with the frost starry night, the purpose is to take you back to Chang'an to settle down, in view of the continuous war in the world now, and the county is not a very safe place, so I still hope that you can follow me to Chang'an." ”

As soon as Chu Mofeng's words came out, everyone present lowered their heads and thought about it, Chang'an was completely sad for his group, and when he heard that Chu Mofeng proposed to take everyone back, he couldn't help but feel a little resistant.

After a while, I saw Mrs. Heba stand up and say to Chu Mofeng, "Child, is it true that Beixian can't stay for the time being?"

Chu Mofeng nodded, and said with a solemn face: "Mother, since the child has decided to come to pick you up, it must be a decision made after thinking about it for a long time, if the mother wants to return to Beixian County in the future, after the child and His Royal Highness the King of Qin have pacified Dou Jiande, you can come back at any time." ”

After listening to Chu Mofeng's words, Mrs. Heba nodded, what her youngest son said this time was to whip into the inside, as the saying goes, paper can't contain fire, since he is an official in Chang'an, if one day his relationship with the Gao clan is revealed, it is inevitable that there will be people with bad intentions to blackmail him.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Heba instantly regained the momentum of the second lady of the Gao Mansion, stood up and said to everyone: "This matter will be done according to what your brother said, and from tomorrow onwards, the Mansion will pack up all the gold and silver and prepare to move the family." ”

Everyone present had already thought of the key, and when they heard Mrs. Heba's order, they all nodded yes, the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Chu Mofeng let go of the burden in his heart, and accompanied the family to enjoy this hard-won warmth.

In the early morning of the second day, the entire Gaofu entered a busy state, everyone was carefully sorting out their belongings, and last night Chu Mofeng told everyone that they only needed to bring their personal belongings, and the rest of the belongings would be repurchased after arriving in Chang'an.

Immediately, everyone only made some simple tidying, and Mrs. Huba took out the money from the treasury and dismissed the people in the house one by one. After everyone cleaned up, Mrs. Heba ordered Gao Hongyi and Gao Biaoren to take Chu Mofeng to the ancestral hall of the Gao clan to pay respects.

On the third day, Chu Mofeng led everyone to the ferry and embarked on the road back to Chang'an by boat.

At the same time, Liu Feiyan, Gu Zhen'er and others also successfully infiltrated the county seat of Mayi on the day Chu Mofeng arrived in the county, because Liu Wuzhou had already proclaimed himself emperor at this time, so the supervision of the county seat of Mayi was much stronger than that year.

From time to time, patrol soldiers stopped passers-by to ask, in order to avoid suspicion, Liu Feiyan decided to let Yu Wenxiu pretend to be a rich son, while himself and Xiao Ruolan dressed up as Yu Wenxiu's family, as for Gu Zhen'er, who looked charming, she pretended to be Yu Wenxiu's lady, and Chen Jingqing became Gu Zhen'er's maid.

After the five of them were ready, they temporarily stored their horses in the stables outside the city, and they entered the county seat of Mayi on foot, although they were both separatist forces and came from a wealthy family, Liu Wuzhou's rule was more than a hundred times stronger than Liang Shidu's rule.

Looking at the pedestrians hurrying on the street, Yu Wenxiu, who was dressed as a son's brother, whispered in Gu Zhen'er's ear: "It seems that this Liu Wuzhou still has some means of governance, although there are people on the street from time to time to check, but I think these soldiers have a very soft attitude." ”

"Xiu'er, don't you know, if we shout on the street now, do you believe that a group of soldiers will come to surround us immediately?" Gu Zhen'er on the side heard Yu Wenxiu's words, and remembered the incident of making trouble with Chu Mofeng before, and couldn't help laughing.

The five people walked to an inn, Yu Wenxiu glanced around, motioned for everyone to enter the inn, and when they entered the door, they saw the shopkeeper greeted him, and the shopkeeper, who deals with people all the year round, has already practiced the ability to see people, and as soon as the five people entered the store, they knew that Yu Wenxiu, who was walking in front, was the highest status in this group of people.

Immediately, the shopkeeper said to Yu Wenxiu: "This master, do you want to stay in the hotel or eat? If you stay in the hotel, the rooms in the small shop are clean and comfortable, and absolutely quiet, and if you eat, the small shop has both north and south dishes." After speaking, he glanced meaningfully at Gu Zhen'er beside Yu Wenxiu.

I saw Yu Wenxiu look around at the inn, frowned and said, "Little second brother, why don't you see many customers in this store?"

The shopkeeper didn't know what Yu Wenxiu was saying, and subconsciously said: "Hey, who said it wasn't, originally the small shop has always been a constant source of customers, since the Song general defected to His Majesty, His Majesty began to fight everywhere, and there were many fewer merchants who came to our Mayi, and I heard that they all went to Chang'an." ”

Hearing the words of the shopkeeper, Yu Wenxiu nodded meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Then please prepare two guest rooms for us, and prepare a table to send it later." After speaking, he took out half of the money from his bosom and threw it on the counter.

Seeing that this person was selling a large amount, the shopkeeper was afraid of losing such a hard-won customer, so he hurriedly ran to the counter to complete the procedures for everyone and took the key. After leading everyone into the guest room on the second floor, he turned around and went downstairs to the back kitchen.

Yu Wenxiu saw that the shopkeeper was walking away, and hurriedly closed the door, and several people gathered at the table and began to mumble.

I only heard Liu Feiyan say with a solemn face: "Listen to the meaning of the shopkeeper, it should be Song Jingang who defected over, it is said that this person is good at using soldiers, and I heard that he married Liu Wuzhou's sister, so our main target should be on this person these days." ”

Gu Zhen'er, who was on the side, rubbed her stomach and lay on the table and said angrily: "Cousin, do you think we should find an opportunity to burn their grain and grass equipment like we did in Xiqin?"

"No, let's come this time, Brother Chu explicitly forbids us to act rashly, everything is mainly based on exploration, so we still don't want to make trouble for no reason unless we have to. Liu Feiyan stopped Gu Zhen'er's thoughts, and said slowly: "Let's take a break today, go out together tomorrow, and ask around on the street, maybe we can find out some useful news." ”

Everyone nodded yes when they heard this, and at this moment, the voice of the shopkeeper suddenly came from outside the door: "Son, the banquet you want is ready, and the villain will bring it in for you now." ”

Hearing this, Yu Wenxiu quickly stepped forward to open the door, only to see the shopkeeper and another guy each walking in with a big tray, and after placing the wine and food in the tray on the table, they quickly retreated.

Everyone saw the four meats, four vegetables and eight dishes on the table, and suddenly a feeling of hunger arose, so they hurriedly sat down and picked up chopsticks and feasted.

After a full meal, Liu Feiyan, Xiao Ruolan and Chen Jingqing returned to another guest room to rest, while Yu Wenxiu and Gu Zhen'er, who pretended to be husband and wife, washed and changed clothes, and lay side by side on the only big bed in the house.

After the two blew out the lights, they couldn't sleep for a long time, so they had no choice but to chat in the dimness of the house.

During this period, Gu Zhen'er didn't know what to think, and suddenly asked Yuwen Xiu, "Xiu'er, do you like Brother Chu?"

I only felt that Yu Wenxiu seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: " That little boy, when I was a child, in our group of so-called eunuchs, I counted him as the most ghostly, relying on the fact that he had three brothers above him, and he fought with people all day long, if you want to say that you like it, in fact, I can't say it well, Yulin said goodbye in a hurry, and I didn't think that I could meet again, who knew that I met again in Yanmen, at that moment I admitted that I was really tempted, but over the years, he has married a four-room wife, I think even if I still have love for him, I can't be the fifth lady in his house. ”

"Xiu'er, you also know, since he was rescued by Brother Feng, people's hearts have long been hanging on him, but you are right, the fifth lady of Chu Mansion must not do it, after all, marrying the fourth room is already a bit shocking. Gu Zhen'er stared at a pair of bright eyes, and said faintly as if talking to herself, and after a while, her voice gradually became low, and then there was a slight snoring.

Yu Wenxiu on the side smiled helplessly, and then fell asleep deeply......

As the saying goes, a girl's heart is a needle, and look at Chu Mofeng's family in Chang'an City, and the Huamayi market on the other side was accidentally obtained, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition......
