- On January 1, 578 AD, the emperor of the Northern Qi Empire issued an edict announcing his abdication. At the same time, it was reported that the prince was happy. As soon as the news came out, everyone was in an uproar. There was a wave of opposition in the court, but as the prime minister, Tang Yong But he never said a word from beginning to end.
Since ancient times, when the previous emperor was still alive, the succession of the new emperor was very rare, and most of them were forced by the new emperor and had no choice but to do it. However, Gao Changgong was in the prime of life and had great prestige. When he was happy, he was filial and polite. It will shock everyone so much,
Although there were many people in the court who opposed it, Gao Changgong's decision could not be changed, and everyone could only choose to accept it. Fortunately, he had made outstanding achievements in the past years of fighting in the south and the north. Even though he was young, he was able to convince the public. However, there were some conservatives in the court. They were worried and trembling. They vaguely understood that the reason why Gao Changgong abdicated was to allow Gao Gao to carry out comprehensive reforms in Northern Qi.
To everyone's surprise, Gao Gao did not immediately carry out drastic reforms after ascending the throne. Instead, he carried out army reorganization and training in an orderly manner and actively prepared for war to fight against the upcoming Three Kingdoms Alliance. The people of Qi also knew that Zhou might introduce troops again. When the invaders invaded, the people were immediately furious, and a craze for joining the army was set off across Northern Qi.
The second thing Gao Xing did after he ascended the throne was to build roads. He built two roads from Hezhou to Yangzhou and from Jinyang to Dongyongzhou. These two roads will be paved with cement. There is no one in the government about this. Objection, after all, everyone understands the significance of Xinghao's road construction, not to mention that most of the road builders are Turks who were Huxing's captives.
Time passed slowly, winter turned to spring, but both the people of Qi and the people of Zhou and Chen could feel the chill and depression of the approaching war. However, compared to the high fighting spirit of the people of Northern Qi, Zhou The people of the state and Chen state seemed a little slack, even worried.
Two consecutive failures and heavy losses have made the people of Zhou lose their confidence. Especially after Yuwen Yun came to the throne, he was incompetent and incompetent, which disappointed the civil and military officials and made the people confused.
"Your Majesty, Lord Ye Jing would like to see you." Xiao Ling's cold voice came,
Rubbing his somewhat groggy brows, Gao Xing raised his head and said, "Let him in." Only when he was truly in this position could Gao Xing understand Gao Changgong Zeng Jin's hard work, especially at this time when Northern Qi was in ruins and was about to face another war. , there are so many things to do, even with my cheerful energy, I feel exhausted.
"Ye Jin meets the emperor, long live my emperor." Ye Jin entered the imperial study, immediately prostrated himself on the ground, and said loudly,
"No etiquette, stay calm."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ye Jin straightened up, but her body was half-hunched, and she didn't dare to look up at Gao Xing. She looked very reserved.
Looking at his appearance, I couldn't help but sigh in happiness. I thought that when we were in Xuyi, we had a detailed chat with him over wine. It was so uncomfortable. However, the higher our status is now, the greater the gap between them.
It¡¯s so cold at high places,
He sighed again, happily subdued the sadness on his face, looked at Ye Jing and said: "Ye Aiqing, how are you preparing for the road construction?"
"Back to the emperor, everything is going according to your instructions. In addition to 100,000 Turkic slaves, there are still 300,000 civilians. It is estimated that it will only take three months to complete the two roads."
"Very good." He happily nodded and said: "Although the Turkic prisoners of war are slaves, you must not mistreat them. I will still have use for these people in the future. Also, there must be no difference in the wages of the civilian workers. If anyone gets the idea, In this regard, you must punish me severely and show no mercy, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind."
Ye Jing suddenly felt a chill in her heart and said respectfully: "I understand, I will definitely live up to the emperor's trust."
"Okay, you and I have known each other for many years. I can rest assured that you can do things. Go ahead." Gaoxing nodded and said with a smile.
"Boom, boom."
Ye Jing said goodbye and was about to turn around to leave. The ground suddenly trembled violently, causing Ye Jing to stumble and almost fall to the ground. Then there was a deafening roar in the distance, and the imperial study room even trembled. Many of them Dust fell from the dome, and after just a few breaths, the shaking of the earth stopped.
"what happened."
Both Gao Xing and Ye Jing had shocked expressions on their faces, especially Gao Xing, who frowned. Suddenly, there was a sense of uneasiness in his heart. The loud noise seemed like an earthquake, but it was more like Gao Xing suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore. Busy Gao He shouted: "Xiao Ling, send someone quickly to find out what happened."
"yes."
The sound of clothes flying was heard, and Xiao Ling ran far away in the blink of an eye.
When Xiao Ling came to Gaoxing again, the time had passed from noon to the dusk of the next day. His brows were full of fatigue, but his expression was unprecedentedly gloomy and solemn.
I was so happy that I couldn't help but stand up and said, "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, the Yellow River is about to end?, the floods have started, and now the whole country has become Zeguo, a hundred miles outside Luoyang City. People have died heavily, and countless fertile fields have been destroyed. "
"What." Gao Xing suddenly stood up and said with a serious face: "Dugu Yongye has been running Luozhou for many years, and the Yellow River has always been calm. Fu Fu is even more thoughtful and steady in his work. Even if the ice and snow melt in the spring, how can it suddenly burst its banks? When a flood occurs, the cause can be found, but the person in charge neglected their duties."
Xiao Ling glanced at Gao Xing first, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although the flood destroyed many things, I carefully inspected and found the shadow of gunpowder where the embankment broke."
"Gunpowder." Gao Xing shook his body and shrank his eyes suddenly. The guess in his heart was confirmed. His face suddenly became extremely ugly, and his body exuded an extremely strong evil spirit. "It seems that someone did it deliberately. I'm afraid After this flood, Zhou will launch an attack, such a vicious plan, good, very good."
Although Gao Xing¡¯s tone was light, Xiao Ling, who was familiar with Gao Xing, knew that the murderous intent in Gao Xing¡¯s heart was extremely strong.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Within ten days, I want to know who gave the gunpowder to outsiders." After a pause, he happily said: "Prepare horses, order the cavalry division to assemble, set off in a quarter of an hour, and rush to Luoyang overnight. state."
"yes."
Xiao Ling agreed, and his body suddenly flashed out like a ghost.
After Xiao Ling left, he sat down happily and a little absent-mindedly, with both sentimentality and resentment in his eyes.
"Why, aren't you satisfied these years? Aren't enough people dying?"
Gunpowder is Gao Xing's secret weapon. Both its production and transportation have always been extremely strict. Only the forces who first followed Gao Xing in Xinghua City have access to this thing. However, now they have betrayed Gao Xing and brought disaster to innocent people. Endless disasters,
He is angry, he hates,
¡¡
¡°Mother, mother,.¡±
"My child, my child."
The torrential floods raged on the earth, carrying broken trees and collapsed houses rolling towards lower places. At high places, the surviving people cried heartbreakingly and shouted hoarsely, shrouded in sadness. The whole sky of Luozhou,
No matter poor or rich, no matter high or low, all life is so fragile in front of nature.
"Fu Fu, commander-in-chief of the Second Group Army, met with the emperor."
Fu Fu, who was covered in mud and could barely distinguish his human form, was about to take a rest when he suddenly saw a happy flag in the distance. He suddenly became energetic and hurriedly ran forward to meet Li Dao.
"No courtesy."
He waved happily and said with a serious face: "Has the embankment entrance been blocked now?"
"Back to the emperor, there was not much water storage in the spring. Now the embankment has been blocked, but there are still many people affected by the disaster who have not been rescued."
"Qin Qiong, do your best to help the people." She was happy, her face shone, and she waved her hand and drank,
Qin Qiong agreed, and immediately led his 10,000 cavalry to join the rescue team. Luozhou was affected by a large area. Fu Fu was afraid that Zhou would take the opportunity to attack the city, so he dispatched 30,000 soldiers to rescue. For three consecutive days, these The soldiers were extremely tired, and now they were relieved to have Qin Qiong to help them.
"Xuanling, my son, Xuanling."
¡°Mom, save me, uh, save, uh,.¡±
At this moment, Gao Xing suddenly heard a rapid cry in his ears. He suddenly turned around and saw a five or six-year-old child struggling in the water three hundred meters away. He was swept away by the flood and called for help. The sound is intermittent,
"Hey."
Gao Xing gave a soft drink, pulled off the cloak behind him, and walked like the wind towards the child who fell into the water. According to the legend, Bodhidharma crossed the river with a reed, and now Gao Xing also uses the driftwood in the flood. While walking through the waves, a magical scene suddenly shocked everyone.
At a distance of three hundred meters, Gao Xing arrived five meters in front of the child in just a few breaths. At this time, the child had no strength and completely sank to the bottom of the water. Only a touch of blue clothes was still exposed on the water.
His eyes flashed with joy, and he immediately flew out, gliding past the water. When the blue was about to completely sink into the water, he lowered his left hand and hit the water with his right palm forcefully.
"boom."
Water splashed everywhere, and all of Happy's clothes were soaked. His body that was about to be dumped in the water suddenly rushed upward. At the same time, the child who fell into the water was also fished out of the water.
Returning to the heights in the same way, Fu Fu and others immediately surrounded him. He happily handed over the child in his arms to them, but his body shook violently and his face turned pale. ?The speed actually exhausted all his energy. Now his internal organs are aching, and he feels a little exhausted.
"Xuanling, my son, Xuanling."
A beautiful middle-aged woman stumbled and rushed to nearly a thousand, snatched the child from Fu Fu's hands, looked at the child's closed eyes and purple face, and suddenly started to cry in grief,
"The child can still be saved." Gao Xing took a breath and his body improved a little. He immediately smiled and said to the woman. As he spoke, he raised his hand and hit the child in the back of the heart moderately. The latter shuddered. He opened his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of sewage. He coughed violently and opened his eyes.
"Xuanling, you finally woke up, you scared me to death, great, you finally woke up." The lady cried with joy, hugged the child tightly with both hands, and said incoherently,
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Fu Fu saw that the child was safe and sound, and then he realized that his happy face was a little pale, and he suddenly said with concern,
"It's okay." Gao Xing smiled and waved his hand.
It was then that the lady realized that it was the emperor who had saved her child. She immediately knelt down in fear and said in a trembling voice: "I didn't know that the emperor was here. I am a foolish woman who is rude. Please punish me."
"Don't blame those who don't know. Get up." Gao Xing held up his hands and waited for the woman to stand up. Then he said: "The child is important." After saying that, Gao Xing looked at the child who was a little frightened but was awake and said: "My child, you What¡¯s your name? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?¡±
"Back to the Emperor, my name is Fang Xuanling. Thank you for saving my life." After saying that, the child struggled to stand up from his mother's arms and paid homage to Gao Xing as if he were there.
Happy eyes were fixed, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Get up, take care of yourself in the future, and don't let your parents worry." - Didn't finish reading?
