Only God is left

Liu Zhiyuan, the founder of the country, did not expect Liu Zhiyuan, who lived in Taiyuan, to be a descendant of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty when he was in Hedong.

For these second-generation ancestors, the most important thing is not to do things too much.The surrounding Yuanrongs are all uncles, and they will still give them the face they should have due to the affection of the older generation.What's more, at this time, these veteran generals are mostly in their twilight years, and few of them are willing to fight fierce battles after spending their entire lives on the battlefield.

So the most critical one is: don't do things too much, don't force those veterans to do real tricks.

However, Liu Chengyou did something extraordinary. After he ascended the throne, he was dissatisfied with the monopoly of the ministers in the court, so he hacked the three ministers who had been ordered by Liu Zhiyuan, Yang Bin, Shi Hongzhao, and Wang Zhang, to death in the palace, and secretly sent people to kill them. Guo Wei, the privy envoy who commanded troops to guard Yedu.The young man has a good tutor and is familiar with the Spring and Autumn Period, and his behavior is quite old-fashioned. His mind is full of genocide entries.Unexpectedly, they killed all three family members together with Guo Wei's family immediately afterward.

There are many murders like this. The current unwritten rule is that although there is a law of rebelling against the clan, when dealing with generals and important officials, most of the crimes involved in the planners are committed. Kill as you want, and the relatives and ethnic groups are more pardoned. Ask to stabilize people's hearts, and leave a way for yourself to survive in case of accidents—it has been the first time in decades that the emperor personally killed women and children like this: There is nothing to say now, it is a life and death.

The iron-like facts once again proved that all generals who entered the court to pester them would end badly, and those with long spears should go to the plains to kill the enemy and go to the temple to make trouble.However, he has the guts to dare to challenge Guo Wei so openly, and now it's time for him to compete with Guo Wei, so that everyone in the world can see if he is the one who will win everyone's heart.

This is what Fu Yanqing thought after receiving the imperial edict to return to Beijing.

After Liu Zhiyuan ascended the throne, Fu Yanqing led the Pinglu Army Jiedu to suppress the border. The Khitan people in this area have never been honest. -in spite of!The holes I poked were filled by myself.

Don't overdo things, don't force veterans to act, in this kind of world, who can be messed with for decades until now, those who are lying on their stomachs don't want to move, don't poke them to want to move: Who doesn't want to move? I remember that Shi Jingtang, who had been lying on the ground like a sick cat for a long time, was immediately stimulated to fight back to the capital when he heard that the town was moved.Guo Wei's work is not bad, and after making a plan with his confidant Wang Jun, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and started working: first, he changed the imperial decree to kill all the generals, and showed the things in front of the army, which immediately aroused the anger of the crowd. It's easy to do if you can't get the reward money for the army. Sure enough, the army promised to enter the capital to allow the army to plunder for a few days.

During this period, Liu Chengyou was killed in the rebellion, and the branch of the Marquis of Huaiyin was welcomed from Taiyuan, but there were no major accidents. Guo Wei and Huang Qi proclaimed himself emperor and changed his dynasty to Dazhou.

The old rules of the founding of the country, first fiddle with these Jiedu envoys, the first thing is to recruit Sifang Jiezhen into the court.

Up to now, everyone who looked at Gao Xingzhou and Fu Yanqing would be beating their hearts: These two people are neither stupid nor disabled, they have soldiers, towns and reputations, so how come they never make trouble?

Fu Yanqing was difficult to tease, but Gao Xingzhou was much more docile.It is estimated that he is used to those tyrannical and difficult-to-govern feudal towns, and he was a little at a loss when he met Gao Xingzhou. He has been a little crazy about Gao Xingzhou's temptations for a long time-in the past 40 years, Gao Xingzhou has moved to the town ten times. This time, needless to say, the one who changed the dynasty, even when the reign name was changed, he had to be called out, as if he wanted to take all the anger he received at those other powerful feudal and domineering towns on his head.

He really doesn't make trouble?He really doesn't make trouble.

The conclusion is that this person's good temper seems to have no limits, and he is always on call.

It’s good not to make trouble, don’t make trouble—in fact, there’s nothing good about the throne, what you want in life is wealth and honor—come on, come on, we’re all old brothers, I’m a big brother today, It's shameful to forget the old friends, and we are blessed to share together!

……

Zhou Taizu practiced, and Qi Wang Gao Xing Zhou Jiashou Shangshu ordered, and increased the number of food towns to [-] households.Taizu used to be a senior general in the Zhou Dynasty, and he was not named in the edict, but he was called the throne.

Fu Yanqing named Huaiyang king.

……

Surprisingly, Guo Wei didn't touch Gao Xingzhou this time, and finally he survived until the day when he was safe.It was a time when the border affairs were restless, Guo Wei did not touch Fu Yanqing, and even more politely asked to hire his daughter to be his son Guo Rong.Fu Yanqing has completely disregarded this: he is really going to spend his whole life in the army, and he can't escape his father's old ways.

What surprised Fu Yanqing was that he didn't expect to see Gao Xingzhou again after leaving the capital.

Along the palace wall is a short stone road, and the setting sun casts mottled shadows on the bluestone.They are all old, Gao Xingzhou's temples are like frost, only his pair of golden eyes are still shining with bright and gentle light.Fu Yanqing suddenly remembered that they had walked side by side on such a stone road so many years ago.

Why not ask?Fu Yanqing thought, maybe after today we will never see each other again.

"Shangzhi, there is something I've always wanted to ask you..."

Gao Xingzhou turned his head to him, with a very polite smile on his face.

"...Do you still remember, when Shi Lang entered Beijing, we drank together at Dongcheng Temple at night..."

Fu Yanqing evasively explained the approximate time and place with difficulty, Gao Xingzhou suddenly said: "Oh, it was then."

"Yes, that's..." Fu Yanqing secretly looked at Gao Xingzhou's face and faltered: "——At that time."

"At that time..." Gao Xingzhou smiled: "At that time, we talked for a long time, and I found that I liked you very much, but I couldn't figure out your intention, so I was thinking that if you are really interesting, then will hold my hand."

"I've got your hand—"

"Yes, you grabbed my hand," Gao Xingzhou was still smiling, "If that's the case, I'll let him kiss my hand—"

"I kissed your hand—"

"Well, sort of—if he kisses my hand, I'll let him kiss my eyes."

"—did I kiss your eyes?"

"You dragged me back to the house, and then I found that you seemed to be asleep, and I thought, God, how can this man be so cute, and he can't help but swearing beside you, I didn't expect you to wake up—"

Fu Yanqing's brain exploded, and a stream of heat rushed up from under his feet, making his eyes turn white.He didn't jump in fear like this before the Qianjun formation. Gao Xingzhou's tone was calm, but Fu Yanqing's heart was beating like a war drum, and he listened to him with his ears open.

After a pause, Gao Xingzhou smiled slyly at him.

"—I can't remember after that, I was drunk."

They are not young anymore, but Gao Xingzhou still makes him unable to move his eyes away when he smiles. After so many years, the magic power of those golden eyes on him still hasn't faded in the slightest.

Fu Yanqing looked at him speechless for a long time, and finally he took a deep breath, tears poured out.

Gao Xing was stunned on Monday, so he smiled and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, "Don't be like this, there are so many people."

A man in his fifties, known as the veteran general of Qiangfan in Lizhen in the north, was crying like a child at this time.

"...It doesn't matter, you can also laugh at me. In fact, I am more likely to cry."

"What are you talking about, what's so ridiculous about it?"

"...Say hello to your son for me, I miss that child very much."

"He misses you a lot too."

"Don't be polite to me, I didn't even expect him to remember what I look like."

Gao Xingzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Look at you, why am I telling such a lie, really."

"Well, that kid still has a conscience."

He grabbed Gao Xingzhou's hand on his shoulder and held it tightly, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.There was no doubt they were getting older, but no matter how time passed, those golden eyes still took his breath away.

He had never seen Jin who was so cold and intimidating.

Gao Xingzhou looked at him for a long time, and finally withdrew his eyes and smiled without showing any sign of his hand, "Guanhou, take care."

"..."

There is no way to say goodbye at all, and they probably won't have any future meetings.Until Gao Xingzhou's back was no longer visible, Fu Yanqing still stood there stupidly, his tears still couldn't stop streaming out of his eyes, as if the knots accumulated for more than ten years were flowing out with the tears, his heart suddenly burst into tears. up.No need to answer at all, they were old, but even now he still kissed those golden eyes without hesitation.

Some of the passers-by who knew him also stretched their necks to see how big their eyes were, but Fu Yanqing didn't care at all.

He didn't care at all what others would think - what did they know, Fu Yanqing wiped his face, but his eyes were still hazy - what did they know!
