Years later......

......

Since the Han Dynasty, after more than 700 years of gorgeous Chang'an City, or like the general Jin Se Sheng, prosperous, now it is the seventh year of Jiande, the Great Zhou Emperor Yuwen Yong since more than ten years ago secretly used clean means to get rid of the three emperors in one fell swoop after the right minister Yuwen Hu, began to gradually bring back the imperial power from the hands of the generals of the Zhu State in the court, and then began to implement various innovative measures, rich country and strong people, ambitious to capture the side of the Great Qi Dynasty in one fell swoop, unify the Central Plains, after that, he also wants to take advantage of the situation to capture the Chen Dynasty in the south corner of the Yangtze River, and go north to crusade against the Turks who have repeatedly invaded Yanmen Pass, personally created a truly flowery and prosperous era of great unification, so that tens of millions of people under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty will always enjoy happiness and peace, after all, at that time, he was only in his twenties, which is the best age for young and ambitious.

But after all, the years are still easy to spare people, in a blink of an eye, it is now the seventh year of Jiande, although Yu Wenyong is only in his thirties, but he has already felt that his body has gradually begun to be much worse than before, he knows that this is because the Great Qi has not been completely conquered, and may be reversed at any time, after all, most of the rich land in the Central Plains is within the boundaries of the Great Qi, the Great Zhou is located in the west of the Guanxi, the land is barren, and the products are scarce, it is really not suitable for a long time and the Great Qi Dynasty for a long time, and the degree of cruelty and tyranny is better than his Lao Tzu Gao Zhan, Gao Zhan dared to remove the leg bones of the concubine around him and make the flesh and blood into a pipa to play, which has shocked the court, who would have thought that after Gao Wei ascended the throne, the means of playing with the harem beauty are even more skilled than his Lao Tzu, and he actually likes to put the harem beauty naked into the bath bucket full of poisonous scorpions, watching the pain and moaning of the beauty when she is stung by the poisonous scorpion in the bath bucket for fun, and the court is even more to let the chicken and dog be knighted, and the palace maid and eunuch pretend to be beggars to have fun, but also because this Gao Wei was naturally jealous of his imperial uncle Gao Changgong's outstanding military exploits, and the old general Lu Hu was highly respected in the army, so he killed the two, so that in recent years, in the successive battles with the Great Zhou Dynasty, the generals and this Gao Wei were separated from morality, and they had no intention of fighting for him, and because this Gao Wei had only blindly devoted himself to harem pleasure since he ascended the throne, he did not repair political affairs and had no way to govern, which led to the continuous floods and droughts of the Great Qi Dynasty in recent years, famine everywhere, and the people were not able to make a living, so at that time, whether it was the Manchu Dynasty civil and military officials, or tens of millions of ordinary people, they all thought that if the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty came to the city at this time, the Great Qi Dynasty would be destroyedTherefore, since the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been assembled in large numbers outside Luoyang City, many subjects in the Great Qi Dynasty have begun to prepare to pack up their families and flee to the south of the Yangtze River under the rule of the Chen Dynasty to live and take refuge, because most of the people in the Great Qi Dynasty are actually the descendants of the subjects under the rule of the Jin Dynasty three hundred years ago, whether it is the Great Qi Dynasty or the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is not their hometown worthy of nostalgia, only the Chen Dynasty that is now in a corner of the Yangtze River is the real place in their minds.

Therefore, because of the centrifugal detachment of the soldiers and the people fled one after another, the current Great Qi Dynasty was disheartened for a while, and the people were uncertain, and Emperor Jiande Yuwen Yong could no longer take care of his current body was still a little weak, and took the opportunity to gather hundreds of thousands of troops outside Luoyang City, ready to attack the Great Qi Dynasty at any time and unify the Central Plains.

But at this time, there was a strange change in the Great Qi Dynasty, because Gao Wei had lost the hearts of the people, and the generals in the army were bent on supporting Gao Changgong's younger brother Gao Yanzong as the emperor, Gao Yanzong had to comply with the public opinion overnight in a yellow robe, and ascended the throne in Luoyang City to claim the emperor, Gao Wei immediately dropped the throne and took his queen Feng Xiaolian to escape from Yecheng in a hurry, all the way to the direction of the Yangtze River, and because Gao Yanzong had a very high prestige among the civil and military officials and ordinary people of the Great Qi Dynasty, so the military heart and the people's hearts in the Great Qi Dynasty suddenly stabilized rapidly, everyone wants to fight to the death with the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty in Luoyang City.

Emperor Jiande Yuwen Yong, who received the detailed tip, was now frowning in the most majestic and gorgeous Taiji Hall in the palace hall of Chang'an City, and suddenly his personal supervisor came to report urgently, saying that Murong Shuisheng, the county lord of Qingyan, came to visit, Yuwen Yong immediately opened his brows and smiled when he heard the word Shuishang, and hurriedly asked the eunuch in charge of the personal supervisor to quickly invite Shuishang into the main hall, and turned his head and immediately ordered the personal palace maid to quickly put the county lord's favorite fruit snacks on the table.

When he was young, he saw the lord of the water-dressed county in a neon dress and feather coat coming with a smile on his face under the careful service of the eunuch in charge, and before the eunuch in charge could play to the saint, he jumped on tiptoe on the Danxi and jumped forward in three steps and two steps and plunged into the arms of his uncle Yuwen Yong.

Shui Sheng and her uncle Yuwen Yong have always had a good relationship, she is the only one in the entire Yuwen royal family who has been able to help her uncle Yu Wenyong in the imperial study since she was six years old, and every time she has reviewed the fold, her uncle has never reviewed it again, so since she was a child, people in the royal family have whispered in private that her bones are strange, and she doesn't know what kind of husband can match her in the future.

But Shui Sheng thinks that she is only more than thirteen years old this year, and she still wants to be coquettish by her uncle's side for a few more years, as for the marriage gift, she knows that as long as she doesn't take the initiative to speak, her uncle will definitely understand, and the daughters in the royal family will not worry about marrying, Shui Sheng thinks that even if she has been relying on her uncle until she is sixteen or seventeen years old, she may not become a royal joke who can't get married.

And she knows that at the moment her dearest uncle must be the person in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty who least wants her to marry off immediately, because the Great Qi Dynasty changed hands overnight, and the emperor has changed from the mediocre and incompetent Gao Wei to the decisive Gao Yanzong, if the Great Zhou Dynasty fights hard, although it can also have a few decisive decisions, but the payment is too great, and it is easy for people with bad intentions in the center of the court to take the opportunity to rebel, in fact, Shui Sheng has been eyeing the martial guard general Yang Jian since a few years ago, but because this Yang Jian's daughter and the prince have a marriage contract first, so Shui Sheng knew that he couldn't say that he could not move his uncle to try to find an excuse to kill this Yang Jian as soon as possible to cut off the troubles, after all, the gentleman can deceive him, and his uncle is the benevolent and virtuous emperor recognized by tens of millions of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so naturally he will not arbitrarily kill the important ministers of the court without any conclusive evidence, and it is even more impossible to think of such a vicious plan as secretly sending someone to assassinate, although Shui Sheng thought that his uncle was a little bit of a tiger to let this Yang Jian's power in the court go unchecked, but since this Yang Jian has not openly revealed his wolf ambitions now, Shui Sheng thought that he would give his uncle some more time, He can always think of a way to completely solve this confidant in time, his uncle was originally an omnipotent transcendent male god in Shui Shang's mind, Shui Sheng believes that there is no problem in this world that cannot be completely solved cleanly and completely with his uncle's smart means.

It's just that at the moment, Shui Sheng thinks that the most important thing for her is to try to help her uncle solve the trouble in front of her first, she has actually guessed that since that Gao Yanzong seized the throne in Luoyang City, her uncle's brows have not bloomed comfortably for a day, but even so, Shui Sheng still feels that she has a reason to let her uncle eat a few pieces of fruit and dim sum with her in front of the table first, after all, looking at her uncle's miserable face, it must be a few days since she had eaten a delicate imperial meal.

So, "Oh, uncle, this piece of crab roe cake tastes good, what, don't you like it?" Shui Shang took a piece of crab roe cake on the plate in his mouth fiercely, and stretched out a few slender jade fingers to gently send another piece of flower cake in the plate to Yu Wenyong's mouth.

"Oh, Uncle isn't very hungry now," Yu Wenyong said that, but he still liked it, but he still liked it, and reached out to take the flower cake in his mouth and took a bite on it.

"That's right, uncle, since you want to fight, you have to prepare to go and don't want to come back alive, so uncle, you can't eat or drink now, after all, although you are a ninety-five, but in the final analysis, you can be regarded as an ordinary man, knowing that you may die soon, which ordinary man can still eat and drink fearlessly, then it is really a hell of a life," she said.

"Oh, the wings haven't grown much harder, and I'm starting to look down on my uncle, a common man, so are you going to pack your bags and go to Zhongnan Mountain to cultivate immortals now," Yu Wenyong couldn't help but look at her face with a doting face.

"Hmph, uncle, do you also think that Shui Sheng hasn't been married yet, have you made up your mind to go up to the mountain to become a nun?" Shui Sheng stared at Yu Wenyong's face with a slight disgust, "Otherwise, even if you are an immortal cultivator, Qi Yun Mountain's fame is always much greater than that of Zhongnan Mountain, right, uncle," she said.

"Look at your little temper, when did my uncle say that he would give you a marriage," Yu Wenyong looked at her face with a doting expression, "And you already knew that there were not many mortals who really cultivated immortals on Zhongnan Mountain, but they just wanted to enter the court to seek officials through the reputation of cultivating immortals, otherwise who would deliberately go to a place thirty miles away from Chang'an City to cultivate immortals," he said.

"Originally, although there are countless people who have returned to seclusion on Zhongnan Mountain, but no one can retreat on the mountain for ten or eight years, and after almost three or five years, they can't bear the loneliness and go down the mountain into Chang'an City to find an official," Shui Sheng couldn't help but smile coldly as he spoke, "The county lord has never liked those Central Plains men very much, I don't know why the men of the Central Plains are unwilling to go to the battlefield to fight to protect women, but to let the women who should have been well protected go out and kiss in exchange for their survival," she said.

"Shui Shang, to be honest with your uncle, have you heard any rumors related to the queen in the Murong Mansion again," Yu Wenyong's face changed slightly in an instant, "Sister and brother-in-law are really, at the beginning, I just let Ashina Yan go to the Murong Mansion at will, but I didn't say that I had to let my sister and brother-in-law take care of any of her affairs," he said.

"Uncle, since everyone has already married into the door, what can you do if you treat her a little better, which dormitory can't be used as a place for her to sleep at night, you have to lock her up in the cold palace, in fact, even if she is locked up in the cold palace, uncle, you feed her a bowl every day, she may not really surrender to your uncle," Shui Sheng was helpless, "And now that the war with the Great Qi Dynasty is imminent, maybe we will go to the Turks to borrow troops," she said.

"Shui Shang, she didn't allow those women in her uncle's harem to be the first," Yu Wenyong sighed helplessly, "Uncle should not have brought her from the Turks in his life." ”

"Actually, uncle, people who have come all the way from the Turks to come to Chang'an City to make peace with their relatives are actually very aggrieved," she said, "If the Turks have already come to Chang'an City now, Uncle you may have to send yourself to the Turks to marry Ashinayan," Shui Sheng looked smiling and slightly gloating, bantering," Uncle, you should always know that the real name of the county lord is Dou Lian'er, and Shuishang is just a table word, even if it is with her mother's surname, it should also be Yuwen Lian'er or Yuwen Shuishang, but why has she always been called Murong Shuishang," she said.

"No way, who let many of our ethnic groups in the Great Zhou still take women's dignity as the top, although your mother is my own sister, but because her mother's family is dominated by women's respect, she has followed her mother's surname since she was a child, and her surname is Murong, so although your father's surname is Dou, you still follow your mother's surname Murong," Yuwen Yong was helpless," Although your father is a concubine, but your family's mansion has always been called Murong Mansion, presumably your father is not very comfortable in his heart, but Ashina Yan is different, the Turks have often harassed the people in the Yanmen Pass area in recent years, how do you know that they will not take advantage of the fire to rob when we are at war with the Great Qi Dynasty, and forcibly grab territory in the Guanxi area, and do evil, now that Ashina Yan is in our hands, even if they have this calculation in their hearts, they will have some scruples," he said.

"Uncle, you are so calculating Ashina Yan, you really want to be a fool when a Turkic princess is a fool, let you knead your temperament like this," Shui Sheng alerted his uncle with a little anger, "The Turks are indeed wolves, but at least they are already open on the surface, and the real crisis is actually close at the moment, but you still want to make enemies everywhere like this, and personally give others the opportunity to rob while the fire is burning," she said.

(b)

Shui Sheng ate a few pieces of crab roe cake in the main hall and then unexpectedly hurriedly said goodbye to his uncle, and hurriedly turned back to Murong Mansion, because in recent years, the people in the Yanmen Pass area have been seriously killed and injured in the Turkic southward invasion, so the emperor's uncle's attitude towards Empress Ashina Yan has always refused to loosen at all, Shui Sheng previously calculated in his heart that he wanted his uncle to go to the Turks to borrow troops to attack Luoyang, and at the same time weaken the vitality of Daqi and the Turks, This was originally a princess in the Turks, Ashina Yan since entering the palace, it is true that she just wants to strive for more practical interests for the Turks, and he has never had a trace of non-thinking about his uncle or even the entire Great Zhou Dynasty in his heart, at most, he really likes his uncle a little bit in his heart, and he has a little true affection for his uncle, so he began to compete for favor with those concubines and beauties in the harem who have been serving his uncle for many years, this is a very good and good available resource, who would have thought that his uncle could not tolerate Ashinayan's little arrogance and willfulness in the harem, and directly sent her to the cold palace, Does my uncle really dare to guarantee that the news that he will depose the queen into the cold palace will not be leaked to the Turks, if the Turks secretly collude with the Great Qi because of this, and attack the Great Zhou before and after, it is the real endless troubles, maybe that Yang Jian is thinking about this in his heart, and now the biggest hidden danger in the court is him, with him on the sidelines, the defeat of the Great Zhou, the Great Qi, and the Turks is the real catastrophe, just waiting for this Yang Jian to take the opportunity to usurp the throne and stand on his own, so no matter what, Shui Sheng thinks that the current battle with the Great Qi Dynasty in Luoyang City must be quickly cut through the chaos and quickly resolved, but the current emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty is Gao Yanzong, the younger brother of Gao Changgong, the famous king of Lanling, not Gao Wei, compared with Gao Wei, even Shui Sheng thought that Gao Yanzong, who had only heard some famous rumors in Murong Mansion, was indeed much more difficult to deal with on the battlefield than Gao Wei.

But fortunately, Murong Mansion sent a large number of fine eyeliner to Luoyang City before, and many of them must be lurking around Gao Yanzong now, and the critical military defense information has naturally been sent to his uncle in time now, and the remaining seemingly inconsequential intelligence information Shui Sheng is of course easy to get in Murong Mansion, because her parents thought that she had a clear skeleton and was very intelligent, so she was never forbidden to investigate the confidential information that was sent to Murong Mansion, and Shui Sheng has not stopped investigating the confidential information that was sent to Murong Mansion since she came back from the palaceAfter carefully reviewing these confidential information one by one, his eyes suddenly involuntarily stared at the most worthless ordinary information......

This is a small eyeliner who was mixed in with Gao Yanzong as a cook, and a few days ago quietly passed the list of dishes in Murong Mansion about Gao Yanzong's daily meals, such information was prepared to be used to secretly poison and assassinate, but because this Gao Yanzong was extremely self-disciplined after ascending the throne as emperor, he never showed a trace of personal preference for any dish in the imperial diet, so the plan to poison and assassinate the dishes would not have succeeded, if not, my father must have already started to send someone to infiltrate Luoyang City to carry out the assassination mission。

But in such a seemingly ordinary imperial food list, Shui Sheng was very unexpectedly noticed a trace of indescribable clues, although the dozens of dishes in these dishes list seem ordinary, but under careful screening, there is a big rule, that is, among the ingredients of these dozens of dishes, all of them are indispensable for rice wine, and most of the stewing methods are mainly wine-brewed, which can at least explain a problem, this Gao Yanzong, he should have been a drunk-addicted person, but because he is the Ninety-Five, he can't drink heartily in the palace every day, so he has to make up for it a little bit in these wine-brewed dishes, and such an alcoholic person is now facing hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty in Luoyang City......

......

......

A few days later, Yuwen Yong personally led 50,000 forbidden troops to Luoyang City, with the emperor's dignity to drive the expedition, and Gao Yanzong is now as expected to sit in charge of the Luoyang city gate, Gao Yanzong, who stood in the wind on the city gate, slightly bowed his head and overlooked the hundreds of thousands of Great Zhou elite soldiers under the city and the Great Zhou Emperor Yuwen Yong, who was wrapped in a cloak in front of the battle under the escort of a group of soldiers, the two were mortal enemies, but at the moment of the battle of life and death, for some reason, he unconsciously felt that the other party was the most familiar person in his life, of course, what made him feel more familiar was the charming county lord in the neon dress and feather coat who sat on the carved royal chariot next to Yuwen Yong, Murong Shuishang, Although he had heard some anecdotes about her in Chang'an City in Luoyang City before, but when he finally saw her on the battlefield of life and death today, he didn't expect that in an instant, his heart would be irrepressibly pouring out* came out with a trace of incomparably evil mortal thoughts, he originally knew that Shui Sheng was just Yuwen Yong's niece, and his uncle's doting on his niece had nothing to do with male and female love, but because there were many things that turned people upside down in the royal family of the previous dynasty, Gao Yanzong would no longer easily believe in the innocence between the two nephews, and this is one of the most important reasons why Gao Yanzong now wants to let Yuwen Yong die immediately, because in Chang'an City, he has a woman who has been admired in his heart for a long time, Yuwen Qingqin, and this woman has grown up in Yuwen Yong's harem since childhood, just like a bird with broken wings, that is, he once came to his side by luck, but after all, he will follow him back to Chang'an City without looking back......

But even so, so what, between them was originally life and death, he was originally leading an army to destroy his country, and he had to cut off his head in Luoyang City no matter what.

So soon, Gao Yanzong ordered the 10,000 vanguard troops in the city to open the city gate and go out of the city to fight, everyone knew that this was luring the enemy to go deeper, because he expected that as long as the city gate was opened, Yu Wenyong would definitely wave his division and drive straight in, they were originally emperors on horseback, and the mood on horseback was always much more exciting and high-spirited than when sitting on the dragon chair.

After a while and three moments, as Gao Yanzong expected, although he could see at a glance that this was luring the enemy deeper, Yuwen Yong still categorically ordered 50,000 forbidden troops to enter the city with him, because Yuwen Yong concluded that the Great Qi Dynasty had been greatly weakened because of the long-term famine everywhere and the people's livelihood, and the combat power of the army had been greatly weakened, and Luoyang City had already had the fine eyeliner that the Great Zhou Dynasty had planted in advance, and the virtual and real control of the troops in the city was clear, so Yuwen Yong concluded that the defenders in Luoyang City were not his 50,000 forbidden army opponents, as long as Luoyang City could be successfully captured, it was equivalent to opening the door of the Great Qi Dynasty, and then hundreds of thousands of troops waved into Yecheng like entering no man's land, completely destroying the Great Qi Dynasty。

But what Yu Wenyong did not expect was that because Gao Yanzong had a very high prestige among the people, so the people in Luoyang City actually followed Gao Yanzong with one heart when they led the army into the city, they set up a large number of bows and crossbows on the roofs of each house in advance, and used the identity of the people's women and children as a cover, hiding behind the doors and windows of each house and the roofs to fire bows and crossbows and arrows to the 50,000 soldiers who followed them into the city, because there were many people in Luoyang City, thousands of bows and crossbows and arrows seemed to fall from the sky and could not be stopped, and there was no way to avoid it, and the army was suddenly in chaosIn desperation, he had to order the retreat, and he was also embarrassed in the chaos of the army to drag his life out of the city, and then ordered the army to quickly turn around and retreat from outside Luoyang City, and return to Tongguan City as soon as possible to garrison and defend.

Here Gao Yanzong saw the defeat of the Great Zhou army, and heard the report of his subordinates that he found that Yuwen Yong's mount had been seriously injured and fell to the ground in the city, thinking that Yuwen Yong had already been buried in the chaos of the city, and once Yuwen Yong was buried in the chaos of the army, the Great Zhou Dynasty would immediately be in turmoil, and the Great Qi and Great Zhou were already equal in terms of military strength.

......

......

But I didn't expect that the sky would not follow people's wishes, because there are still many Wenchen generals in the Great Qi Dynasty to follow Gao Wei, so although Gao Wei is no different from the abolished emperor, he still barely controls tens of thousands of personal soldiers, and these tens of thousands of personal soldiers are now stationed with Gao Wei in the city of Bingzhou, which is more than 500 miles away from Chang'an City, Gao Wei threatened to negotiate peace with the Great Zhou Dynasty, and sent troops to fight against the traitor Gao Yanzong, Gao Yanzong therefore did not care about taking advantage of the situation to pursue and defeat the fleeing Great Zhou army, but hurriedly rectified the army and marched towards the state along the way, getting rid of Gao Wei's trouble, but he didn't know that all this was Murong Shuisheng's secret counter-strategy, because Gao Wei is indeed in the city of Bingzhou now, but he just went around saying that the city of Bingzhou would rather be cheap to Da Zhou for nothing, and it could not fall into the hands of Gao Yanzong, he would rather be a slave of the country than be the emperor who was abolished, but because of the grudge that Gao Changgong was given to die, Gao Yanzong was convinced of Gao Wei's threat to crusade against him, so Shui Xiang's strategy was able to lure Gao Yanzong to give up the pursuit of the defeated army of the Great Zhou so smoothly, and ran thousands of miles to Bingzhou City and Gao Wei burst into flames, but he didn't expect this Gao Yanzong to be extremely efficient, and in just one month, he went straight into Bingzhou City to capture Gao Wei, but he didn't kill him immediately, first locked in the dungeon and waited for himself to lead the army to break through Tongguan in the coming day, and took his head to sacrifice the flag when the soldiers came to Chang'an City.

But whether it is Yuwen Yong or Murong Shuishang, they all know that Tongguan City must not be easily breached, otherwise it will be equivalent to directly opening the gate of Chang'an City, waiting for Gao Yanzong to drive straight in, so under the foresight and backwards of his uncle Yuwen Yong, Murong Shuishang still insisted on making a quick decision, and decided on a dangerous strategy to lure the enemy deep and win in danger.

Therefore, a few days later, Gao Yanzong led the army to attack Tongguan City, which is a dangerous place related to the life and death of Chang'an City, Yuwen Yong hurriedly took a group of remnants of the defeated soldiers in a panic and fled from the city, because Tongguan City has always been a place for soldiers, so on the night of entering the city, Gao Yanzong, who was very excited because of the victory of the flag, ordered all the soldiers to celebrate the wine feast with him in Tongguan City, and did not return if he was not drunk, and the wine feast reached midnight when tens of thousands of soldiers in the city were all drunk and fell to the ground, Gao Yanzong was also drunk and wantonly imagined that the Yuwen Qingqin in Chang'an City had a charming voice and a light dress, but did not expect Yu Wen Yong at this moment to calculate the perfect opportunity for the Qi army in the city to be drunk and fall to the ground to lead the army into Tongguan City in one fell swoop, killing a clean and neat return to the horse pistol, Gao Yanzong was shocked but found that he was already drunk and unable to return to the sky because of the number of his soldiers at the moment, so he had to ride a fast horse and hurriedly escape from Tongguan City, and rushed back to the Qi army camp stationed under Huashan, but inexplicably collapsed under Huashan a few days later, Yuwen Yong got the news of Gao Yanzong's death and immediately ordered the troops to send troops to the city of Zhou, capturing Gao Wei and a group of Gao royal clansmen, and then ordered to wave the army to Yecheng, and the Great Qi Dynasty was completely destroyedSince then, the Great Zhou Dynasty has finally been regarded as the land of unification of the Central Plains.

A few months later, Yu Wenyong openly ordered Gao Wei and a group of Gao royal relatives who had surrendered to the Great Zhou Dynasty to be given wine to death, and Empress Feng Xiaolian was sent to Baihualou, the most famous green building in Chang'an City, but because of this, she was like a fish in water, and her life was very happy.

Gao Wei cried bitterly when he received the holy decree of Yuwen Yong in the prison, but he could not live in Chang'an City for a lifetime, but Gao Wei's seven-year-old son Gao Ren wanted to let Murong Shuisheng, the county lord of Qingyan, come to the prison to meet him before he died, because although he was young, he also knew that this time the plan of the Great Qi to destroy was inseparable from the Qingyan county lord who was famous in Chang'an City.

When Yu Wenyong heard such an echo, he naturally knew that this seven-year-old boy had already selfishly admired Shui Sheng in his heart to the point of being so dead that he was stubborn, but it was also the dying wish of a seven-year-old child, so he could only quietly inform Shui Sheng of the news, after all, places like the prison have always been damp and dark, if Shui Sheng insisted on not going, Yu Wenyong naturally would not ask more about this matter, just let his guards send the family surnamed Gao on the road as soon as possible.

To tell the truth, Yu Wenyong is very reluctant to see any man in this world who has any angry selfish desires and thoughts about Shui Xiang, even if this man is only seven years old now, he knows that he will personally give Shui Sheng an edict to marry sooner or later, but at least in Yu Wenyong's heart, such a man who is worthy of letting him personally give Shui Sheng an edict to marry has never appeared in Chang'an City, maybe it is really because she is only thirteen years old now, if she really wants to keep her by his side for a few more years, then naturally he will not think that there can be any man in Chang'an City who is worthy of Shui Dress, After all, if there really is, that man's current age is only the same thirteen years old, but a thirteen-year-old man in the world, who can reach the water clothes for half a point, a few months ago he was able to win a big victory in Tongguan City, capture Gao Wei alive, and destroy Daqi, but everything behind it is only because of Shui Xiang's careful calculation, she expected that Gao Yanzong would definitely have a wine feast in Tongguan City after winning the battle, and reward the three armies, The world only knows that the Great Qi Dynasty was destroyed in the hands of Emperor Yuwen Yong of the Great Zhou Jiande, but they don't know that the one who really destroyed the Great Qi Dynasty was just a thirteen-year-old cardamom county lord, Murong Shuishang.

......

(c)

Shui Sheng heard that Gao Wei's seven-year-old son Gao Ren wanted to see him in the prison, although he knew that he must have thought about himself, but for some reason, he always thought that this seven-year-old child was really a little pitiful when he said it, so although he didn't plan to go to see him in the prison, he still persuaded his uncle to kill Gao Wei's family only until Gao Wei's clan was in the same generation, and the rest of the people only needed to be sent to a remote and barren place to fend for themselves, because it was Yang Jian's personal soldiers who were responsible for escorting them, as for how the mother and son would be treated along the way, it was not up to Shui Sheng to manage.

Although because of his own benevolence, Gao Wei's descendants have had the opportunity to recuperate and hibernate in Yuzhou City, but Shui Sheng didn't feel that this Gao Ren would become a shocking hidden danger of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future, and now her pair of bright water eyes will naturally still stare at that Yang Jian, but because the relationship between Yang Jian and the Queen Mother has always been good, the uncle naturally has no way to take this Yang Jian for a while, but Shui Sheng is not a very patient person, I heard that Yang Jian is naturally taboo and nailable, as long as he eats taro, he will have a lung attack and can't breathe, immediately decided to use this method to let Yang Jian die untimely in his own mansion, in fact, he was in his fifties, saying that his untimely death was simply a tyrannical thing, and the word youth was ruined in vain.

Because the incense spices mixed with taro powder that Shui Sheng carefully prepared for Yang Jian were not soup and fruit snacks, they naturally would not arouse Yang Jian's suspicions, and Yang Jian was naturally only born to taboo the entrance of taro, and there was no adverse reaction to the taro powder mixed in the incense, so if this incense was only put in the smoke cage as a burning incense spice, it would not hurt Yang Jian half a point, but what Shui Sheng calculated in his heart was that Chang'an City had suddenly become popular for some reason in recent days, and it was as unbelievable as fashionable, that is, the spices used for incense were put in tea to brew and eat, and Shui Sheng sent the spices to Yang Mansion as a congratulatory gift for the Midyear Festival in the name of Murong MansionAs long as Yang Jian inadvertently drinks such fragrant tea, everything will be completely solved unconsciously, even if he finds that there is something strange in the tea, he can only blame the people in his house for negligence, and he can't hold Murong Mansion accountable, because no one has a knife to let him soak the incense in the tea to eat, so that he can beat his heart and show the fox's tail as soon as possible, Uncle actually may not have doubts about him in his heart, but since his ascension to the throne as the emperor, his uncle has been overwhelmed by the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military and the people of the world in the mouth of this benevolent and virtuous and holy name, so he insists on having conclusive evidence to be willing to commit the crime, and the hateful thing about killing is this, all the ill-intentioned people in the world are actively using this hateful resource, which is simply unreasonable.

However, when Shui Sheng was waiting for all kinds of rumors and news from the Yang Mansion in the center of Murong Mansion, he didn't expect to wait for a queen mother's decree in Qiyun Temple outside Chang'an City, naming Shui Sheng to go to Qiyun Temple to accompany the Queen Mother to practice in March, the Queen Mother has been practicing quietly in Qiyun Temple outside Chang'an City in recent years, and everyone knows about it in Chang'an City, so Shui Sheng has never cared in her heart, but today the Queen Mother and her old man specially sent a decree from Qiyun Temple, naming Shui Sheng to go to Qiyun Temple to accompany the practice, Shui Xiang's parents did not dare to have any disobedience after receiving the order, It was too late for Shui Sheng to go to the palace to inform his uncle, so he asked Shui Sheng to follow the aunts of the Queen Mother who came to deliver the decree to Qiyun Temple to meet the Queen Mother, and later Murong Fuzhong would send someone to the palace to inform the emperor.

Shui Sheng had no choice but to follow a few aunts to the Qiyun Temple outside Chang'an City to meet the Queen Mother, but after entering the Daxiong Treasure Hall in Qiyun Temple, he saw the Queen Mother accompanying the Dinghua Master who was also well-known in Chang'an City, Shui Sheng immediately understood what was going on, because this Dinghua Master was Yang Jian's adoptive mother, Yang Jian was fostered in Jinhua Temple in Chang'an City for a period of time because of his frail and sick childhood, during which he was responsible for raising and taking care of him was the Dinghua Master in front of him, since the Queen Mother stayed in Qiyun Temple, this Dinghua Master often came to Qiyun Temple to walk around, The Queen Mother naturally trusts her very much, and she is Yang Jian's adoptive mother, if Yang Jian tells her about the taro powder, she will definitely come to Qiyun Temple to complain to the Queen Mother......

Sure enough, after Shui Sheng entered the Qiyun Temple, she was immediately detained by the Queen Mother to love her for her intelligence and deep roots, and she was forced to detain herself in the Qiyun Temple to accompany herself, perhaps at the instigation of the Dinghua Master, after being forced to stay in the Qiyun Temple, the Queen Mother has been kind enough to persuade Shui Shang to take refuge in my Buddha, to be pure and comfortable, Shui Shang knew in his heart that the Queen Mother's kind words and persuasion to himself was almost just a blatant scene to cover people's eyes and tongues, if she was unwilling to convert, she would also shave her head according to her head, Zuo just wanted to detain herself in Qiyun Temple for the rest of her life, and no longer have any threat to Yang Jian, the rules of Buddhism Shui Sheng knew it, After the woman shaved her head, there was no chance to turn back, even if her uncle came in person, she might not be able to take herself away from Qiyun Temple, but the Queen Mother and Dinghua seemed to have forgotten one thing at the same time, and the front door of Qiyun Temple would definitely be able to shut her up, Xianbei women were seven years old and could ride horses and shoot arrows, climb trees and climb over walls.

Of course, Murong Mansion was implicated, Shui Shang quietly escaped from Qiyun Temple in the middle of the night after escaping from the wall immediately with the golden waist card given by his uncle and fled into Chang'an City overnight, and entered the palace to see his uncle, she deliberately made herself clothed before entering the palace, embarrassed, thinking that she was asked by the Queen Mother to change into a green robe when she was in Qiyun Temple, so now she is wearing a plain robe with such a tender appearance, and when the cloak appeared in front of his uncle Yuwen Yong, he immediately made Yuwen Yong rush back for a while, and the thunder was angry, although he couldn't openly say anything to his mother, but he sprinkled all the resentment in his heart on the Buddhist lineOriginally, because of the prevalence of Buddhism in the Great Zhou Dynasty, a large number of adult men entered the Buddhist sect as monks in order to avoid tax and military service, so that the imperial court was short of soldiers for many years, and the treasury was emptyAt that time, what did the imperial court take to fight with the Turkic million-strong army, not to mention that because the temple has a large number of fields, the momentum is huge, if it is used by some ill-intentioned people to usurp the throne and rebel, it is also a matter of endless trouble, so because of the fact that the water clothes were forcibly detained in the Qiyun Temple, Yuwen Yong issued an edict to destroy the Buddha overnight, except for the imperial court such as Qiyun Temple, the rest of the private temples are forced to be demolished, the monks in the temple are also common as ordinary tax households, and the slaves and maids in the temples are all released and returned home, without taking into account the silver deed of redemption, as for the Buddha statues after the demolition of those temples, find a place where no one digs the soil and buries it。

Yuwen Yong's edict to destroy the Buddha was issued, naturally it quickly attracted the abbot of the major monasteries in Chang'an City to resist and denounce, among which the most respected Master Yan Ming in the Taiji Hall asked Yu Wenyong is not afraid of falling into the eighteenth layer of hell in the future because of this edict to destroy the Buddha, Yu Wenyong bluntly told Master Yan Ming on the gilded throne, since he dared to write this edict of destroying the Buddha today, naturally not afraid of suffering in hell in the future, as long as the tens of millions of people under the rule of the Great Zhou can enjoy eternal peace and happiness, that is, the next day when the karma in hell is added, he is also unrepentant, willing。

Although Shui Sheng knew that his uncle's wanton demolition of temples and destruction of Buddha inside and outside Chang'an City was not necessarily because he was forcibly detained in Qiyun Temple by the Queen Mother, but because of this, he was extremely moved by his uncle in his heart, but in this way, he really felt pity for Queen Ashina Yan, who was living a miserable life in the cold palace, because Queen Ashina Yan had been converted to my Buddha since she came to Chang'an City, and thought that because the Queen Mother entered Qiyun Temple to practice, she could wait for Yuwen Yong's change of heart by virtue of her identity as a Buddhist disciple, but now it seems that it is impossible to wait for that day。

(iv)

Because of an edict to destroy the Buddha so that hundreds of thousands of slaves and maids in the major monasteries were released home, more than a million young monks are still vulgar ordinary tax households, so in a short period of time the imperial court soldiers and taxes have increased rapidly, and soon the treasury is full, the army is sufficient, the people's homes before only eat all day fast for the Buddha old and young women also began to work hard, the national strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty also increased in a short period of time and quickly prospered and strengthened, this is naturally an exciting joy in the hearts of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, but in Shui Shang's heart, but he has always thought that this uncle is really not a good thing。

Shui Sheng knows that his uncle is now over thirty years old, although he looks young and vigorous, but his body and bones are getting weaker and weaker day by day, which is naturally because he has been secretly prescribed slow medicine by Yuwen Hu during the tea and dinner after being supported by Yuwen Hu and ascending the throne, otherwise how could he give birth to a stubborn and stupid waste prince like Yuwen Yun for no reason, Yuwen Hu This old thief is simply a sin in the present day, and it is precisely because of this that the uncle's heart has become more and more anxious for quick success in recent days, just thinking about solving the two major troubles of the Turks and Chen Chao as soon as possible when his longevity is not over, so as to avoid the Turks and Chen Dynasty in the future, Tuyuhun three parties formed a joint encirclement of the Great Zhou, but Shui Sheng knew in his heart that it should be a long thing for the three forces to be wiped out, because Tuyuhun is located outside the Yumen Pass, and it will be difficult for the soldiers of the Central Plains to fight for a long time in the desert wind and sand, and the Chen Dynasty is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and the protracted water war of the Great Zhou does not have any advantage, and the 400,000 troops of the former dynasty Fu Jian were defeated to a monk hermit like Xie An in the battle of Weishui, presumably because the Central Plains soldiers did not know how to fight with the Jin Dynasty army for a long time, after all, the people of the Central Plains were on the boat, and it was a big problem to even stand firmly in the boat, not to mention fighting with the enemy on the boat。

Therefore, Shui Sheng knew that the only target that his uncle could think of at the moment must be the Turks who had been harassing and provoking outside Yanmen Pass for many years, and many tribes in the Turks were originally from Rouran, who had been destroyed by the Great Wei before, and the Great Zhou was originally a life-and-death enemy, that is, to send Ashina Yan to Chang'an and his relatives, and sooner or later there would be a war between the two sides, and compared with the weak Chen Dynasty and the Tuyuhun in the border desert, because the first line of Yanmen Pass is indeed a wide open door, without any natural dangers, the Turks can invade the south at any time, so it is reasonable for the uncle to want to send troops to attack the Turks first, but the uncle is afraid that his current body may not be able to cope with the long journey from Chang'an to Yanmen Pass, if you can wait until your uncle's body recovers before sending troops to fight, the odds of victory should always be better than the sudden start of the war......

But I didn't expect that this time, Yu Wenyong's attitude was very resolute and single-mindedly rejected Shui Shang's kind reminders and warnings, because Yu Wenyong knew that although he had said to Master Yan Ming face to face in the Taiji Hall that in order to make the people happy and happy, he would kill God when he met God, kill Buddha when he met Buddha, and he was not afraid of the threat of eighteen layers of hell, but he also knew that everything had its own fixed number in the underworld, although he issued an edict to destroy the Buddha in order to strengthen the national strength, karma was no longer inevitable, no matter what, this is also a thing that will definitely break his own life, and more than ten years ago, Yuwen protected the slow medicine in his body, and now it is almost time to attackHe knew that Shui Sheng must be very dissatisfied with his own willful behavior in his heart, but there was no way, if he wanted her to be safe and happy in Chang'an City from now on, he must have solved the Turkic problem for her first, otherwise once he died, the Turkic soldiers and horses came to Chang'an City, and there was no end to the eggs under the nest, and Shui Sheng would inevitably die in the chaos of the army, which was a thing that his uncle's life would never allow to happen to Shui Xiang, so I only have to immediately send troops to Yanmen Pass now, and the royal driver personally conquest to defeat the Turks, there is no room for maneuver in this matter, and there is no ......
