Chapter 279 Three years later

Three years later.

Yizhou.

The border between Great Wei and Jiang has become sensitive since last year.

Gao Changle and Yin Mingzhe have been fighting openly and secretly for three years, and the situation in the world has gradually become clear during these three years.

Those small foreign countries on the border were completely annexed, either surrendering or perishing, leaving only Beiyan, Dawei, and Nanchen three major kingdoms standing side by side, and the situation is the same as fire and water, and... a lingering Jiangguo.

Two years ago, Yin Mingzhe took over the emperor's throne from Emperor Jiang Guo. He thought it was an opportunity to display his ambitions, but Gao Changle's suppression of him had reached an outrageous level.

Cut off the trade between the two countries.

Jiang country is small and sparsely populated, and the living environment is not good. It is impossible to grow grain and many plants needed for survival, and to raise cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks on a large scale. It can only grow those medicinal materials that are easy to live. Wei surrendered and obtained trade contacts, using materials in exchange for their daily needs.

But Gao Changle said that the bean epidemic was rampant just after the Great Wei Dynasty, and even the noble fourth princess of the dynasty failed to avoid it on the way to marry Jiang Guo, and died. In order to protect the people of Jiang Guo, it is necessary to suspend it within a short period of time The people of Great Wei came in and out, so as not to pass on the sickness to the people of other countries. When the time comes, it will be the crime of Great Wei.

The Great Wei has a vast land and resources, even if it does not interact with other countries, the medicinal materials produced in the country are enough for them to last for three to five years without any problem, but Jiang Guo is different.

Only half a year after the cessation of trade, Jiang Guo was in trouble everywhere, and there was a famine. As a last resort, if Jiang Guo wanted to survive, he had to bypass the Great Wei and exchange high prices for cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks from Rongdi, and exchange food and grass from Nanhu. As a result, the national treasury will soon be stretched, and it will not last for two years.

Moreover, in the past two years, because Nanhu defected to Chen State and Rong Di was included in Beiyan's territory, Jiang State, which was not rich at all, became even worse.

It was because of such an illness that Emperor Jiang could not afford it, and Yin Mingzhe ascended the throne not long after.

in fact.

Anyone with a discerning eye will understand.

Gao Changle, the regent princess, is not as delicate as she looks, she is a soft persimmon who knows nothing and is easy to handle. On the contrary, she is decisive and capable in dealing with things, and even many men will admire and admire her when she sees her.

She is getting angry at Jiang Guo.

The prince of the Jiang Kingdom, who has always been famous for medicinal materials, asked to marry the fourth princess of the Great Wei Dynasty as his concubine, so that the future concubine died of illness on the road. What a joke, who would believe it? ? ?

A small country on the border, backed by the Great Wei, has been living smoothly for the past few years, so you really think you can do it?
The eldest princess of the Great Wei did not move a single soldier, did not harm the people of the two countries, so Jiang Guo was struggling, and the prince Yin Mingzhe, who was originally loved by the people of Jiang Guo, became the object of scolding by the people of Jiang Guo .

After seeing such a profound method, other countries were amazed and even more fortunate.

Fortunately, they were not the ones who offended the eldest princess of Wei, otherwise, they would have ended up in the same fate as Jiang Guo!
It was a waste of Yin Mingzhe's self-proclaimed schemes, but when he came to Gao Changle, he was embarrassed every step of the way, and his condition was miserable.

It's another year of late autumn.

The night is as cool as water, and autumn is getting stronger.

The maple leaf forests on both sides of the Qingshi path are red like fire, Gao Changle is wearing a black riding suit embroidered with auspicious clouds, riding a steed at a fast gallop, throwing the accompanying horses and chariots far away for a long distance, watching the accompanying officials, The guards and palace people were terrified.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

"Slow down..."

Pei Yuan's voice trembled, watching Gao Changle's figure gradually go away, he felt infinite worry in his heart.

"drive!"

Gao Changle's voice was clear and sassy, ​​waving a horsewhip like jubilation as he shuttled through the red and fiery maple leaf forest. The shouts of the guards and palace people behind him gradually faded away, but the sight in front of him became wider and wider, and the scenery became wider and wider. more and more beautiful.

It's no wonder that Jiang Guo can produce a wide variety of medicinal materials. Fortunately, Jiang Guo is small. Otherwise, it might not be that simple for Gao Changle to deal with Yin Mingzhe without spending troops and horses.

Yizhou is only adjacent to Jiang Country, and Gao Changle can feel the picturesque scenery here.

There was a cool breeze in the ears, and the fresh earthy aroma in the air was even more refreshing. Gao Changle hadn't felt so refreshed for a long time.

Sitting in the position of the regent princess, there will always be a group of people around her nagging and urging her.

What the eldest princess can't do, what His Royal Highness can't do, it's really annoying!
"drive!"

"quick."

"Guard Pei, quickly take someone with you to protect His Highness!"

Seeing that Peiyuan and Zhucui's riding skills were not as good as Gao Changle's, they were soon left behind by Gao Changle, Zhucui could only urge Pei Ganzhi anxiously, and soon... a large group of elite guards also Standing out from the accompanying team, he followed Gao Changle's direction straight away.

"Your Highness, wait for my minister..."

Soon, Pei Ganzhi led a group of guards to protect Gao Changle.

"puff--"

Gao Changle only felt extremely helpless, "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion in my heart."

She has been tense for three years. Even if she wanted to be free and wanton, she would not do anything reckless. She hadn't finished what she had to do, and she still regretted her life.

Gao Changle raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but sneer, "Emperor Yin doesn't have time to plot against me right now, he should be busy going to the Kingdom of Chen to congratulate the new emperor on his enthronement, and busy looking for a backer for himself."

In the past few years, Jiang Guo has been oppressed by their great Wei.

Counting the time, if Yin Mingzhe doesn't think about it anymore, I'm afraid that Jiang Guo will lose all the food and winter clothes after this winter. Da Wei and Jiang Guo are in the same situation, and he won't be so stupid to come to Gao Changle and kneel down to beg for mercy , and Beiyan Zhou Hao is in the same spirit as Gao Changle.

Yin Mingzhe's only hope is the new emperor of Chen Guo.

Speaking of which, the new emperor is also a little funny.

The eldest grandson of the emperor, who suddenly appeared from nowhere, was so respected and loyal by the courtiers of the Chen Kingdom. In the battle for the throne of the Chen Kingdom for more than ten years, no matter whether it was the third prince of Qi or the fifth prince of Qi, he failed. On the contrary, it is cheaper to have a junior, but it is also a character.

In the past few years, Beiyan and Great Wei have gradually grown stronger, and Chen Guo is not to be outdone, and its national power has gradually become stronger, and there is a tendency to annex the entire country again.

"Your Highness."

Hearing Gao Changle's words, Pei Ganzhi didn't look relaxed, but worried, "Emperor Chen ascended the throne. Logically speaking, His Highness should have been invited to watch the ceremony with Emperor Yan, but Chen Guo didn't see him." Is it obvious that any invitation card is to let Jiang Xiaoguo go to watch the ceremony?"

Even if the three kingdoms stand side by side now, the smell of war among the three kingdoms is still very strong, and there is a tendency to be ready to go, but after all, there has not been too much conflict between the countries on the surface.

How could such a big event as the new emperor's enthronement be known without knowing it?
Besides, Zhou Hao and Gao Changle are both noble people now, even if they really ordered someone to send invitations, the two of them would not go there in person, at most they would send envoys there for a formality.

He didn't even want to give face. He obviously didn't want to make friends with Wei and Beiyan. Instead, he chose Jiang Guo, who was suppressed by Wei. It was clear that he wanted to compete with Wei and Beiyan.

"Who knows what they're thinking?"

Gao Changle didn't care.

"No matter how Yin Mingzhe fights the trapped beast, he will die!"

Gao Changle was still smiling, and his twinkling eyes were brighter than the bright maple leaves beside him.

Things have gradually become clear back then.

Yin Mingzhe has cultivated many forces in secret, among which the women from the Bai family and the women surnamed Hong are the most outstanding. They are scattered among the countries, marrying powerful people, obtaining useful information, and wooing powerful officials to do dirty deals with him in private.

The poison on Emperor Jiayuan's body, the bean epidemic in Dawei, and Gao Changhuan's death were all planned by Yin Mingzhe. Even... even Li Shao was killed in front of the palace gate, Gao Changle was also suspicious It was Yin Mingzhe who did it secretly.

It doesn't matter whether Gao Changhuan is dead or not.

She asked for it on her own, but Emperor Jiayuan's enmity, and Dawei's bean epidemic, Gao Changle would never let Yin Mingzhe go easily.

"No, no."

"He would rather die than live."

In the past few years, Gao Changle has grown a lot. At the age of 17, after years of precipitation, she has become more mature and stable. When mentioning Yin Mingzhe, Gao Changle always gritted his teeth in hatred.

"Then you come out like this..."

Pei Ganzhi suddenly realized, as if he understood something.

Gao Changle suddenly smiled like a flower, and looked approvingly, "After following me for so many years, it can be considered that I have improved."

She brought many ministers to Yizhou in such a mobilizing manner. On the surface, it seemed that Gao Changle was too frivolous and indulgent for Jiang Guoshi, but in fact, Gao Changle did it on purpose.

The pressure was too tight, making Yin Mingzhe breathless, and he became more and more cautious in his behavior and handling of things in the past two years.

Gao Changle gradually lost his patience.

It's not that she is anxious about the battle, but she just doesn't want to waste her good time fighting with Yin Mingzhe. She has to let Yin Mingzhe see the hope of counterattack before she can make a desperate fight and have a good time.

To drive a dog into the poor alley, you must also give enough entrances to the poor alley, otherwise, you will force the dog to jump over the wall in a hurry.

Now the relationship between Great Wei and Beiyan is as stable as Mount Tai, although there is no guarantee, but if there are other countries and states in this world besides Beiyan and Great Wei, then the friendly relationship between Beiyan and Great Wei will never change .

Although Gao Changle is a woman, even Yin Mingzhe finds it a headache because of her decisiveness and ruthlessness.

Head-to-head is definitely not enough.

Gao Changle has the rich country, vast land, and strong soldiers and horses left to her by her father, but Yin Mingzhe has a dozen siblings who are eyeing the throne and tens of thousands of soldiers left by his father. The people with their mouths open waiting for him to execute the meal.

With good innate conditions, it's useless for Yin Mingzhe to get angry again.

Gao Changle sat on the Golden Luan Hall for a day, and those ministers with rebellious hearts did not dare to act rashly for a day, and Yin Mingzhe was about to be bound for a day, which really drove him into a hurry, making him ignore the last bit of face, and ordered It would be difficult for Gao Changle to let all the people of Jiang country rush into Yizhou to compete with the people of Yizhou for food.

Yin Mingzhe is Yin Mingzhe.

The people of Jiang State are the people of Jiang State.

What she, Gao Changle, wanted to kill was the father-killer who killed her father, not the innocent Jiang country people.

"Tell me to go on, don't be so nervous, just relax as you like."

"I'm in a good mood. It's rare that they always stayed in Shengjing in the past. When you come to Yizhou, you can do whatever you want!"

Gao Changle's dark eyes sparkled, and he pulled the reins and galloped away again, "Don't forget to send someone to protect your Lord Song, he will be fine..."

Three years ago, Gao Changle ordered that students from poor families be widely recruited. Students in scientific examinations no longer care about family power. They only need to be clean and not guilty of crimes. Her Master Song Lian Yi Song also met three years earlier .

This trip.

Chen Yuanjia, who had already taken the official third-rank Zhongshu Ling, was not destined to accompany him.

But Song Lianyi, who always advised Gao Changle, couldn't be alone, and stayed in Yanjing to live his comfortable life, but Gao Changle threw him to Yizhou to be a "teacher" without saying a word.

However, because Song Lian easily fainted, he couldn't go with Gao Changle and other large groups of people along the way, so he could only take the carriage alone and slowly drive from Shengjing to Yizhou.

Gao Changle couldn't believe his speed.

With such a meek personality, it is impossible to treat this trip to Yizhou as a tour. If he is really targeted, no one will save him if he is in trouble!

-

After Gao Changle's brigade left the capital, a simple carriage unhurriedly passed through the border town.

Along the way, the only sound was the grunting sound of the wheels pressing on the gravel road. If it was someone else, they would be annoyed to death by the noise of the wheels rolling on the gravel road instead of being overwhelmed by the slow speed.

But the owner in the carriage didn't take it seriously, and he didn't disappoint Gao Changle's hope at all. He opened the curtain in a good mood and looked towards the distant mountains beside the road.

"Pity."

"It would be best if we travel in spring."

"At a glance, the flowers are red, the willows are green, lush and green, full of vitality everywhere. Now that autumn comes out, you can only see the withered and yellow leaves all over the mountain. It looks extraordinarily bleak, and it also makes people feel unconscious It's a dreary feeling."

Song Lian Yisheng's lips are red and his teeth are white, gentle and elegant, and he is dressed in a green shirt with a bookish air.

In Gao Changle's words, there is such a kind of person who doesn't say anything or do anything, just stands in front of you with a smile like that, you will know that he is educated, he is a person who has studied for many years and has rich knowledge of scholars.

Song Lianyi is a strong representative among them, a natural reading material.
