    "My child has met his father."

    "Okay, come and sit down." Gao Changgong, who was leaning on the desk, raised his head with a loving smile on his face. When he sat down happily, he said, "You will be a father in two months."

    "Yes." Gao Xing smiled and nodded, with a flash of expectation and fear in his eyes.

    Gao Changgong sighed softly and said with emotion: "Yesterday you seemed to be still in your infancy, and in a blink of an eye you are going to be a father. Time flies so fast, and I am getting old too."

    He shook his head happily and said in denial: "Why do you say that, father? You are still young, strong and healthy, full of energy, how can you get old?"

    "Haha." Gao Changgong chuckled and said, "Human beings are subject to birth, old age, illness and death, and being a father is no exception." He gently waved his hand to stop Gao Xing from speaking. Gao Changgong looked at Gao Xing with relief and continued: "Xing'er, now  You have grown up and your father no longer needs to protect you."

    Xing Xing frowned and continued to be confused: "Father, what are you"

    Gao Changgong's face suddenly became extremely serious. He looked at Gao Xing with burning eyes and said in a low voice, "My father plans to pass the throne to you."

    "What" Gao Xing was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his chair and looked at Gao Changgong in disbelief. After a long while, he said in a trembling voice: "Dad, you are in the prime of Spring and Autumn Period, how could you make such a sudden decision?"

    "This throne will be passed on to you after all. It doesn't matter if it's earlier or later." Gao Changgong smiled and said,

    "But" Gao Xing wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason for the moment and could only frown in anxiety.

    "Xing'er, my father knows that you have lofty aspirations and are talented in the world. Now my existence will become an obstacle to you and will not be of much benefit to the long-term development of Daqi."

    "But dad, I'm still young."

    He was interrupted by Gao Changgong before he could finish his words, "Gan Luo Twelve can be the Prime Minister. My son has been fighting in the south and north for several years, retreating the Turks, and conquering the Zhou Kingdom. He has been unbeatable. This huge feat has been matched by few people in the past.  You will inherit the great power, and the whole dynasty will be civilized and military. No one dares to disobey."

    Gao Changgong¡¯s words were sonorous, powerful and powerful, and his shining eyes were full of pride and pride.

    A warm current welled up from the bottom of my heart, flowing quickly to the limbs and bones. The happy body trembled slightly involuntarily, and there was even more water in the deep eyes.

    In history, how many fathers and sons turned against each other and killed each other for the supreme throne. This was not the case for Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty or Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Neither abuse nor praise could conceal these facts.

    However, at such a young age, Gao Changgong gave up the position that many people dreamed of but couldn't ask for to Gao Xing without even the slightest hesitation. Gao Xing understood that this was his father's love for him. Gao Changgong's love did not have the delicate tenderness of Zheng's.  But as thick as the earth,

    "Xing'er, my father has been tired of the court affairs for so many years. Now that the borders of Qi have been stabilized and the people's aspirations are favorable, it's just time for you to develop your ambitions. I want to have a good rest and spend more time with your mother."

    He pursed his lips tightly in happiness, and he could feel the fatigue and pain deep in Gao Changgong's heart. He knew that Gao Changgong had never been happy since he came to the throne. He had always felt ashamed of his ancestors because of the usurpation of the throne, and he died because of it.  The royal brother blames himself endlessly. His lifelong efforts are actually just hoping to be recognized by his father and family. However, his background makes this small wish out of reach.

    Looking at the white hair appearing on Gao Changgong's temples and the new wrinkles on his forehead, a bitterness suddenly surged in his heart. He really couldn't bear to see the strong man in front of him suffer alone anymore.

    After a long time, Gao Xing took a deep breath, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, looked at Gao Changgong solemnly, and said firmly: "Dad, don't worry, the child will not let you down."

    "The cold winter has arrived, and it is not suitable to fight. The Turks and the Zhou Kingdom are newly defeated, and they will not raise troops to invade in a short time. The Chen Kingdom is busy quelling Sima Fu's rebellion and is unable to go north. We just take this opportunity to recuperate."

    After a pause, Gao Changgong continued: "There are still two months before the New Year. While my father still has some prestige, I can just reorganize all the troops and horses. It will be easier when you ascend the throne."

    "Thank you, Dad."

    ¡­¡­

    Chen Guo, Jiankang,

    "My son, I have come to see my father, and wish him good health and long life." Chen Shuling, the king of Shixing, knelt down in front of the bed. Looking at Chen Emperor Chen Xu, who was obviously older and weaker, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

    "Ling'er, please get back on your feet." Chen Xu coughed lightly and sat up with the help of the palace attendant. With a smile of relief on his pale and swollen face, he said slowly: "Ling'er, please go ahead."Sima Fu, a remnant of the imperial dynasty, was obsessed with treason and rebellion, causing harm to the people, causing turmoil in my empire and giving my father a headache. Fortunately, my son was clever and good at fighting, and finally eliminated the root cause of the disaster and regained the lost territory. It was really a great achievement and very satisfying.  Father will definitely reward you heavily.  "

    Speaking of this, Chen Xu couldn't help but cough a few more times. In his early years, he fought in various places and had many old illnesses. In addition, several unfavorable Northern Expeditions, the rebellious Sima Fu could not fight for a long time, and he also contracted wind and cold. So,  I was just bedridden, so weak,

    After this great victory in quelling the rebellion, Chen Xu's spirit was obviously much better. As soon as Chen Shu Ling returned to Jiankang, he summoned him to meet him. After breathing for a while, Chen Xu said again: "Ling'er, tell me, what reward do you want?"  , Father, I will try my best to meet your requirements."

    "Father, my son and I were able to defeat the rebels this time. First, my father was wise and powerful, and he was deeply loved and supported by the people. Second, General Wu commanded well, and my son and I assisted him. He didn't have much credit. Kuang'er  I am a subject of Da Chen, and it is my duty to fight for the country, so how can I take credit for it?"

    Chen Shuling looked at Chen Xu sincerely, and said sincerely: "I only hope that my father will recover soon, and that my family, Chen, will become more stable and prosperous."

    "Well, he is indeed my son." Chen Xu's eyes lit up, then darkened, and he sighed: "If all my sons are like you, there is no need to worry about the failure of great things."

    "Father, we brothers all want to share our father's worries. It's just that we have different personalities, so we focus on different aspects. My son has been fond of wielding swords and guns since he was a child. He only gained some fame by following the senior generals in the court.  The talents of two brothers are nothing compared to each other." Chen Shuling's expression was sincere and humble.

    "If only you were the prince." At this point, Chen Xu suddenly stopped talking, frowned, and then said with a smile: "Ling'er, if you have merit, you will be rewarded. You should be rewarded for your great achievements. Whatever you want, just ask  Explain to Father."

    Chen Shuling did not answer and asked instead: "Father, I heard that envoys from the State of Zhou came to discuss an alliance with our country and conspire to attack Qi. I wonder if this is the case."

    "But there is such a thing." Chen Xu's relaxed brows frowned again, his face became a little gloomy, and his somewhat cloudy eyes were full of anxiety, "Qi Guoxen was so amazing that he actually defeated the Zhou State and the Turkic coalition, and even the Turks  His Bo Khan was also beheaded. Unexpectedly, the down-and-out royal prince would soar to the sky. I hate the traitor Sima Fu. If he hadn't caused trouble for no reason, the Qi State would have fallen apart long ago. How could it be like this?  furious,."

    As soon as Sima Fu was mentioned, Chen Xu's face showed a strong look of anger and murderous intent, and his hands tightly grasped the quilt under him, wishing to tear it into pieces to vent his hatred.

    "Father, calm down." Chen Shuling hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him: "Sima Fu's leader and ministers have ordered his body to be hung at the Meridian Gate to be exposed to the sun, and his body has been bruised and ashes. Father, please don't get angry because of him.  "

    After a pause, Chen Shuling continued: "If it weren't for the carelessness of his Bo Khan, the state of Zhou would not have even thought of winning, and the state of Zhou would not have withdrawn its troops early. However, even if the state of Qi won, it would have consumed a lot of money. In recent years, the state of Qi has been experiencing constant wars, and the people have long been exhausted.  Tired of it, the national strength is even worse than before, so it¡¯s not difficult for him.¡±

    "What do you think, my son?" Chen Xu looked at Chen Shuling with interest and said,

    Chen Shuling, who was brave, good at fighting, courteous and courteous, had a very high status in his mind. If Chen Shubao was not the eldest son, he would probably be the best candidate for the crown prince. This time, Chen Shuling returned from the rebellion, removing Chen Xu's biggest enemy and letting him  I love Chen Shuling even more,

    Chen Shuling raised his eyebrows and said: "Father, the Qi State's prestige is growing. If it is allowed to grow bigger, it will be difficult to deal with in the future. We should agree to the Zhou State and join forces with them to send troops to attack Qi. As long as we work step by step, we will definitely be able to defeat Qi.  It will drag down the whole country of Qi."

    "It makes sense. We must curb the development of Qi no matter what, and this battle is inevitable." Chen Xu nodded, "The rebel forces have been wiped out, and General Wu can just leave to prepare for the attack on Qi."

    "Father, I have something to ask of you." Chen Shuling said seriously,

    Chen Xu was a little surprised and said: "You said it."

    "I think that Na Xing is not a weakling, but he has such a great reputation. I am not convinced. I want to join the war with General Wu, kill Na Xing and increase my prestige."

    "Okay, then I will make you deputy commander-in-chief and help General Wu prepare for the war." Chen Xu only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Chen Shuling acted steadily and had outstanding military talents.

    "Your Majesty." Chen Shuling was about to speak when an anxious call suddenly came from outside the door.

    Chen Xu¡¯s brows suddenly frowned, and his face looked a little ugly, but Chen Shuling¡¯s face flashed a playful smile,

    "What happened."

    "Your Majesty." The palace attendant who hurried in glanced at Chen Shuling, then came closer and lowered his voice and said:"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince invited the Zhou envoy to the East Palace, but a singer got into a fight with someone and got into a fight, accidentally injuring the Zhou envoy."

    "Asshole."

    A look of anger suddenly flashed across Chen Xu's face, his face turned red, and his breathing became very heavy. Prince Chen Shubao ignored the government affairs and liked to have fun with singing and dancing prostitutes all day long. Chen Xu had heard about it for a long time, but he didn't expect Chen Shubao.  He was so ignorant that he was jealous of a despicable woman and resorted to violence. Not only did he lose the face of Chen Guo, but he was also very likely to ruin his own affairs.

    "Pass my message and ask the prince to come see me as soon as possible."
