"Xiao Yuan'er, come here, let daddy hold you, hey, little guy, he's so strong."
Gao Gao held the child carefully, letting his pink, chubby little hands tear at his hair with claws and teeth, with a doting and warm smile on his face.
Since the birth of the little guy, Gao Gao has been by his side almost all the time except for necessary official duties. Looking at his innocent eyes without any impurities, Gao Gao feels exhausted all over his body, as well as the loneliness deep in Zeng Jin's heart. They will all disappear,
Zhang Rong and the other girls were also hanging around the little guy all day long. Even the cold-tempered Lu Hanyue had a lot more smiles on his face, but behind the smiles, the envy and a touch of resentment and happiness in the eyes of the girls were still visible. In eyes,
"You are a good young man. You will be good at practicing martial arts in the future. When you grow up, daddy will teach you how to practice martial arts." Seeing the little guy punching and kicking me, a cheerful smile filled his happy face.
Only when you become a parent can you understand the true love that parents have for their children, and you will feel sincere gratitude and respect for Zheng and Gao Changgong in your happy heart.
After teasing the little guy for a while, Gao Gao reluctantly handed him over to Wu Shun until the latter fell asleep, and slowly walked out of the door. He planned to go to the study to handle official business, but Gao Gao saw Zhang Rong in a daze in the pavilion in the garden.
It is late winter, the sky is a little gray, and the northern country is even more desolate. The wanton cold wind blows away Zhang Rong's bun, making her back look slightly lonely and sad.
Gao Xing frowned slightly and walked towards the pavilion. Zhang Rong didn't know what she was thinking about. She frowned slightly and stared at the bare flowers and trees with a somewhat empty look, like clay sculptures. She didn't notice the arrival of Gao Xing.
Gao Xing stretched out his arms and hugged Zhang Rong tightly. Zhang Rong was startled at first, but when he smelled the familiar smell, he immediately calmed down, leaned softly into Gao Xing's arms, and said softly: "Husband."
"You have something on your mind." He put his face against Zhang Rong's cold face and whispered happily,
Zhang Rong's body trembled slightly, the resentment in his eyes flashed past, he shook his head and said with a smile: "No, it's just a little stuffy in the room, come out and enjoy the breeze."
"You lied to me." Gao Xing tightened his arms and said softly: "I know you have always wanted a child, but this matter will depend on fate. There is no rush. As long as we work hard, we will have it. Don't Hence the sorrow.¡±
Zhang Rong pursed her lips and put her hand on the back of Gao Xing's hand. Gao Xing was the same happiness from beginning to end. Whether it was the prince, the young prince, the prince now, or the emperor in the future, he has always been happy. Nothing has changed,
"Besides this, tell me if there is anything else." Happy's voice was very low. As he spoke, he turned Zhang Rong around and looked at her with burning eyes. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through her heart. , "You guys have been in abnormal moods these past few days. Tell me why."
"It's nothing, it's just that everyone is a little envious of Sister Shun'er." Looking at Gao Xing's bright eyes, Zhang Rong couldn't help but look away, and her voice gradually lowered,
Gao Gao raised Zhang Rong's chin, not giving her a chance to dodge, and said aggressively: "You have been wronged, tell me, I am your husband, if you don't tell me, I will go and investigate myself, and find out everything. ." Although the happy voice was low and even a little depressed, it had a soaring evil spirit and unquestionable domineering power.
"No." Zhang Rong suddenly panicked, "Husband, we really just want a child of our own."
Gao Xing snorted gloomily and turned around to leave, his body exuding a frightening chill. Zhang Rong, who knew Gao Xing's temperament well, immediately panicked and rushed forward to grab Gao Xing and said hastily: "Husband, don't be impulsive. I¡¯m telling you that.¡±
Gao Gao stopped and stared at Zhang Rong coldly. If she still avoided the important and did not tell the truth, Gao Xing would throw away her sleeves without hesitation.
Taking a deep breath, letting the cold air suppress the turbulent air, after a moment of silence, Zhang Rong said slowly: "Husband, three days ago, Elder Shangguan Taishang came to see me." There was a flash of joy in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. Looking at Zhang Rong steadily,
"The three-party alliance between Chen State, Zhou State and Turks is inevitable. Da Qi will face an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. If we can form an alliance with Liang State, we can definitely reverse the war situation and crush Zhou State's conspiracy in one fell swoop. Liang State also happens to have this I have sent an envoy here, and the Emperor is currently considering it."
"Elder Shangguan Taishang hopes that my husband can marry Xiao Shiyun, Princess of Liang Kingdom, so that I will not hold any grudges."
Gao Xing immediately closed his eyes and sighed: "The person who is talking to you is not the elder Shangguan, but the father."
Zhang Rong's face flashed and she quickly said:? Denied it: "No, the emperor has not agreed to form an alliance with Liang Guo. How could he come to us about this matter?"
"Do you still want to deny it?" Gao Gao held Zhang Rong in his arms, "Forging an alliance with Liang State is of great significance to us. My father will definitely agree. It's just that he doesn't want me to be embarrassed, so he will tell you personally, right? Why are you wronging yourself? Are you afraid that this will cause a gap between father and son?"
Zhang Rong leaned tightly in Gao Xing's arms, looked at Gao Xing seriously and said: "Husband, I am very satisfied to know and love you in this life. As for the title, I don't care. What's more, Princess Xiao has a noble status and is not the crown prince's concubine. Two choices.¡±
"Don't belittle yourselves. In my heart, none of you are the same. You are my happy wife. There is no big or small distinction." Gao Gao patted Zhang Rong on the back, with a flash of determination in his eyes, "I understand this matter. , don¡¯t be sentimental about this anymore, I will handle it well and I will definitely satisfy you."
¡¡
"Are you really planning to do this?" Gao Changgong looked at him with a serious face and said happily,
"Yes." Gao Xing looked at Gao Changgong without hesitation and said in a deep voice: "Since we want to reform and take an unprecedented path, let's start from this matter." Gao Xing didn't say a word, Yu Wenyun can do it He can do whatever he likes,
Gao Changgong sighed: "Well, you are the future emperor, I will no longer stop you, but I'm afraid there will be a lot of resistance in the court."
"This is my family matter, I don't allow others to comment on it." Gao Xing's eyes flashed, very domineeringly,
Gao Changgong nodded and changed the subject: "Based on the current situation in the Zhou Kingdom, I'm afraid they will send troops again in early summer. By then the reorganization of the army should have been completed."
"It will be completed in three more months." A flash of murderous intent flashed in Gao Xing's eyes: "It's okay if Zhou Guo doesn't come, and don't go back once he comes. Originally, I didn't want to go to war with them too early. I wanted to prepare for a few more years. Since If they want to fight, I will fight them properly. Although it is a bit hasty, the preparations in the past few years are enough for a big war. In this battle, I must scare Yu Wenyun and Chen Shubao out of fear, and let the Turks fall apart from now on. , I dare not ride my horse south again."
Happy¡¯s tone was cold and solemn, every word was sonorous, and his face was filled with the aura of looking down on the world.
¡¡
"Your Majesty, there is an envoy from the Ryukyu Island Country asking to see you."
"Oh, but the Ryukyu Island overseas is probably thousands of miles away from Daqi."
"Exactly."
"Xuan."
Soon, a group of seven or eight people walked in from outside the palace. The clothes of these people were obviously different from those in the Central Plains, and their statures were also much smaller than those in the Central Plains. They were much inferior to the fierceness of the grassland people.
When they entered this magnificent hall, these people had a faint look of shock on their faces, and greed and envy flashed in their eyes. Compared with their island country, the Central Plains was much richer and more luxurious.
While these people were sizing up the court, the civil and military officials in the court were also sizing them up secretly. Many people had disdain in their eyes. This was not only because of the dress and demeanor of these envoys, but also because of the people who were alone overseas. Ryukyu Island was despised by them,
"The Envoy of the Sunrise Empire, Jiro Koizumi, has met His Majesty the Emperor of the Sunset Empire. This is the credential of our country." Finally, these envoys came to the center of the hall, shook their hands at Gao Changgong who was sitting on the dragon chair, and said loudly. The animal skin on the previous volume was full of writing,
"Bold envoy, why don't you kneel down and salute His Majesty the Emperor of our country when you see him?" Tang Yong raised his brows and shouted angrily, very majestic,
A look of surprise flashed across the face of the envoy Koizumi Jiro, but he quickly straightened up and said proudly: "I am the envoy of the Sunrise Empire, how can I kneel to the Emperor of the Sunset Empire?"
"Presumptuous."
As soon as Koizumi Jiro said this, he immediately angered everyone in the court. The civil servants glared and the military generals shouted angrily. Suddenly, a monstrous murderous aura enveloped the island country's envoys. Several people were so frightened that they almost fell to the ground, including Koizumi Jiro. His face is earth-colored, but he is holding on to himself.
"Koizumi Jiro, I wonder if you have ever heard of the frog in the well." Gao Gao stepped out at this time and looked at Koizumi Jiro indifferently, without any anger on his face.
In the eyes of Koizumi Jiro's astonishment, he happily continued: "The frog at the bottom of the well always sees only the small piece of sky above the wellhead. Just like your island country, it is just a small place. It is a drop in the ocean, but it dares to be arrogant. The sky is not that big. "The land is so vast. You don't know that there are countless countries to the east of you, and you don't know that this land is round. You dare to say that you are the land of the rising sun, which is really ridiculous."
Koizumi Jiro looked at him in shock and said happily: "You are talking nonsense. Our country is in the east of the earth and is born with the sun. It is a well-deserved sunrise."??¹ú. "
"Arguing with pigs and dogs is just a waste of time." There was not even a mocking smile on the happy face, and he was always calm: "Father, drive these remote barbarians out, it is a waste of everyone's time."
As soon as he finished speaking happily, someone frowned and said: "Your Highness, although the envoys of this island country are arrogant and arrogant, they represent a country after all. If we do this, it will make people think that I am a big and narrow-minded person, and I am even more incompatible with the saint." The words don¡¯t match up.¡±
"What good does it do for you to tolerate him in our Daqi?" Gao Xing's eyes were like lightning and he said in a deep voice: "Since ancient times, weak countries have no diplomacy. As long as you are strong enough, he will choose to surrender and respect you from the bottom of his heart. If Mr. Zhang doesn¡¯t agree, then please invite the island country¡¯s envoy home and entertain him with good wine and good food.¡±
"It's because the lower official was confused, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince taught him the right lesson." The person who spoke suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and did not dare to say anything more.
