Devil Class Cannon Fodder

If it was the past, Huo Huaichuan would not have to wait outside the hall at all, but now it is no longer the same.

Gu Qing asked Huo Huaichuan to see him.

Huo Huaichuan tried his best to calm down and entered the hall slowly.Huo Huaichuan wanted to look up, but he didn't dare. In the end, he didn't even raise his head. He took a look at the king sitting behind the imperial case, and only knelt down not far away.

"Minister Huo Huaichuan kowtowed to the king."

Huo Huaichuan kowtowed, his heart pounding.

The lord of the previous seat did not speak for a long time.

The servants also looked at their noses and hearts one by one, and even slowed down their breathing.This made the hall very quiet, and you could hear a needle drop.Outside the hall, Gong Zizhang led a group of little children, and the sound of frolicking came over inadvertently, but soon they ran away, and the clear and joyful children's voices gradually disappeared.

This scene is worth pondering.Back then, Huo Huaichuan's father, Huo Ping, was also the right-hand man of the former king Yu He. At that time, he was still the son's lord, and he also took Huo Huaichuan to play outside the palace.Maybe in the future, when Gongzizhang and Huo Bing grow up, they will discuss matters in the palace, and Gongzizhang's son will play with the descendants of the Huo family.

And until the children's voices outside the hall could not be heard completely, Gu Guozhu spoke slowly: "You did not disappoint Gu."

With just that sentence, all the noises surrounding Huo Huaichuan disappeared, and the hole in his heart was filled.

At that moment, Huo Huaichuan also burst into tears.

But this kind of warmth is only for a moment.

Next, Gu Qing treated Huo Huaichuan, although he was treated as a meritorious minister, but more of them were business affairs.

Huo Huaichuan listened below, but after all, he didn't dare to ask for more.After returning home in a daze, Huo Huaichuan picked up the two cut-off swords that he kept by his side all the time, and became fascinated.

Those two truncated swords were obviously well maintained, and it's not impossible to recast them, but Huo Huaichuan didn't dare. He once had a glimmer of hope this time, whether he could get the lord's permission to recast these two truncated swords, but Now Huo Huaichuan didn't dare to ask for extravagance anymore.

Princess Yangyue also knew about Huo Huaichuan's return. In the past few years, there was not a day that she did not look forward to. However, when this day really came, Princess Yangyue felt ashamed.

What is the point of her life?

Before that, Princess Yangyue wanted to see Huo Huaichuan for the last time.

Princess Yangyue took out her dowry costume. The first time she saw Huo Huaichuan, she was the princess of Zheng Guo who was loved by thousands of people. Although she went to Yu Country to get married, she still wanted to keep her status as Zheng Guo's princess. The dignity of a princess.Now that several years have passed, the original Chinese dress has long lost its original brilliance, but Princess Yangyue, who is even more beautiful than before, still keeps the old Chinese dress up, and even the lost brilliance of the Chinese dress is reversed. It reflects the sky of Princess Yangyue's national assets.

Even the servants couldn't help saying "No wonder" to themselves when they saw it.

Huo Huaichuan came to see her: "Princess."

Princess Yangyue thought that she would not cry in front of him again, but looking at Huo Huaichuan who was both unfamiliar and familiar, Princess Yangyue's tears fell immediately, with all kinds of thoughts rolling in her heart, and finally she stared at Huo Huai with tears in her eyes. Chuan said: "Princess? Since Zheng Guo is dead, what kind of princess am I?"

Huo Huaichuan didn't speak.

Princess Yangyue's emotional tumbling became more intense: "Are you talking? Can't I hear a 'sorry'?"

Huo Huaichuan finally said: "The responsibility lies."

"You—" Princess Yangyue said anxiously and angrily, "When you and I were in Taolin, you didn't think so."

Huo Huaichuan's face turned pale: "That was the biggest mistake I made in my life." If he had controlled himself at that time, hadn't been distracted and forced himself to forget Princess Yangyue, then his mood would not have evolved into what it is now.Princess Yangyue is still in the harem as her wife of Zheng Guo, and she is still the lord's right-hand man, the monarch and his ministers get along well, instead of losing loyalty and the friendship between the monarch and his ministers for so many years, so that everything is no longer what it used to be beautiful appearance.

The blow Princess Yangyue received was not small. She clutched her chest, almost unable to breathe: "Wrong? You actually said it was a mistake?"

Huo Huaichuan was also ashamed of Princess Yangyue, and wanted to explain something: "Princess—"

Princess Yangyue didn't give him a chance to explain at all, and said heartbreakingly: "You go! I don't want to see you again! You go—"

Huo Huaichuan was silent for a while, but actually clasped his fists and said: "Princess, take care."

Then he left.

Princess Yangyue: "..."

Princess Yangyue lay on the stone table and burst into tears.She finally had enough crying and returned to the house like a wandering ghost.Now she has nothing to love in her life, and she never thought of King Zheng and the others who entered Langcheng after surrendering, including Princess Yangyue's biological mother and her brothers, just like Princess Yangyue put all her eggs in one basket and wanted to get Huo Huaichuan. During the moment of tenderness, all she thought of was her love, and now it is almost like this:

When love is gone, she dies.

It's just that Princess Yangyue didn't die so easily, the servants were watching her, and stopped her when she wanted to die.

After doing this several times, Princess Yangyue was like a walking corpse, completely devoid of energy.

A servant said in his heart: "It will be like this sooner rather than later." '

The story related to Princess Yangyue has come to an end for the time being.

In fact, Gu Qing stopped paying attention to her a few years ago.Gu Qing can actually predict what Princess Yangyue wants to do and what she will do, and she can predict it accurately, so there is no reason to spend extra energy.

Going back to the present, after the kingdoms of Fei, Zheng and Pei were subjugated, the remaining countries on this land were Yan, Chu and Yue.

Among them, Yan State and Yu State had two relatively large confrontations. One was when Yu State united with other countries and took Yan State for six hundred miles; the other was when King Yan found out that he had been deceived by the so-called six hundred miles and sent troops to attack Yu State. .Later this time, it was the general Yu who challenged the battle. In this battle, the Yu army still won the battle. Yan Wangjia, who personally led the army, was shot by Liu Ya, which also caused the morale of the Yan army to plummet.

It was less than a month after Yan Wangjia returned to Wangcheng, news of his death came out.

Prince Xi, who came to the throne immediately, took the order in the face of danger, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

In the summer of that year, Yuqian led an army to besiege Luchun, the capital of the Yan State, but within two months, the Yan army lost their fighting spirit and withdrew from the front line.Taking advantage of the victory in the past, he wiped out the main force of Yan's army, occupied Luchun, the king's city, and captured the newly enthroned Yan Wangxi.

Yan Zai established the son as the king, and attacked again before Yan died.

Let's talk about Chu Guo.Chu Guo was also troubled by his internal strife, and he was almost tossed.

The following year, Chu Run, King Chu's uncle, surrendered without a fight. Before that, he had killed Crown Prince Cang, and successfully ascended the throne and became king for several months.However, he also seems to know that the general situation is over. After becoming the lord of the country, he will no longer be as diligent as before. In addition, the murder of Prince Cang caused a lot of complaints in the country of Chu. There were many complaints, so without much effort from Yu Jun, Chu State was taken down.

Chu Po.

There are also several other small countries that surrendered and became the vassals of the Yu State before, but this is equivalent to becoming the counties of the Yu State, and their countries are also in name only.

In the end, what was left was the Yue Kingdom located south of the Qinling Mountains. The Yue Kingdom had basically never been involved in the disputes on the land of Kyushu before, except for the time when it was fooled by He Lingyu.And the Yue Kingdom didn't get any benefits at all that time, and was beaten to the brim by the Yu army led by Wei Mu, Wei Kuo and his son.Now that the other country's coefficient belongs to Yu, as the only remaining seedling, even if Chen Bing's Wei Kuo did nothing on the border, the Yue country can be frightened by his own imagination.

So much so that when the two armies were actually at war, the King of Yue was already a bit of a soldier.

What's even more pitiful is that King Yue's heart was not very good, and his emotions fluctuated one after another, and the army of Yu State marched all the way south, heading straight for the city of Yue King. ,Bye.

Looking at it from the Yue Kingdom, Prince Chang took his clan members and tens of thousands of Yue troops to flee to the southern border as soon as possible.

The geographical environment there is very harsh, and the miasma alone is enough for a strong soldier to drink a pot. It is also thanks to the fact that the Yue Kingdom has appeased the local residents for years, and with their cover, Prince Jian was able to escape.

It's just that they didn't dare to act rashly, and fled straight into the mountains, becoming turtles with shrinking heads.However, I did not forget that the country title of "Yue" is still erected. Although the land is only a piece of deep mountains and old forests, the old Yue people will never forget the country of Yue. As long as they are alive, the country of Yue will never be called annihilated.

In this regard, the country of Yue survived in name only.

In other words, with the existence of the Yue State in name only, the Yu State can be said to have swept away the Liuhe and completed the great unification.From then on, the same amount of equipment and the same writing.

In the same year, Yu Lang, the lord of the State of Yu, took the title of "Emperor" and "Emperor" from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and called him Emperor.

A new era has come!

It is not the first time for Gu Qing to proclaim himself emperor. Although the previous proclaiming emperor has completely different meanings from the current proclaiming emperor, but to him, it is not very different.

After being proclaimed emperor, it is natural to entrust the heroes.

Among them, Huo Huaichuan was conferred the title of Marquis of Wutong, but he tried his best to refuse it, thinking that he was not worthy of such an award, but in the end he accepted the conferment and was willing to lead troops to guard the frontier.

Gu Qingyun agreed.

In addition, Gu Qing also canonized Yu Zhang as the prince.At this time, Yu Zhang was 11 years old, a young boy, and he had no brothers, and only two younger sisters, who were one year younger than Yu Zhang.Gu Qing had named them respectively before, the eldest princess was named Yu Min, and the young princess was named Yu Jie.

Regarding the two princesses, Gu Qing did not treat them differently from Yu Zhang just because they were princesses.

Gu Qing treats them equally and trains them, but people's hearts are inherently biased, and for Gu Qing, he naturally prefers smart ones.Although these three children are still goldfish in his opinion, goldfish are also different. Yu Min is sensitive and eager to learn, and he is better than Yu Zhang in some fields. But as far as the current situation is concerned, Yu Zhang More suitable to be the emperor of Yu.

Yu Min and Yu Zhang can complement each other, combining hardness and softness.

Then again, after so many years, the harem has not added any newcomers.There were also ministers offering beauty, but Gu Qing refused, gradually everyone got used to it, even after Gu Qing proclaimed himself emperor, no minister came to persuade him.

One is that inheritance is not particularly valued at present, and there is still a "market" for Rangxian's Zen position system;

Secondly, it is completely different from before. Now Yu State has ended hundreds of years of feudal feudal vassals and has become the first unified country with multi-ethnic integration. It also has a tendency to centralize power. As such a transitional period The courtiers are very busy, and all aspects may need to be reset.Compared with this, the emperor's family affairs are nothing at all;

Besides, although Prince Zhang is not very old, but his roots are young, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him. Besides, he doesn't look like he died young, so it's over.

In this way, Gu Qing is also happy.

That being said, Gu Qing is also very busy. The government affairs to be dealt with can be described as piled up like a mountain. After all, they are made of bamboo slips.It's also thanks to Gu Qing's ability to handle it with ease, and at the same time, his subordinates are also full of talents:

As a king, Gu Qing has a very good reputation, especially because he is very tolerant, and loves talents when he uses them.Like before, He Lingyu used the estrangement scheme to separate him from Wei Mu, Wei Kuo and his son. If it was other monarchs, they would probably be hooked, but Gu Qing didn't. He still reused Wei Mu and Wei Kuo as before.

For Gu Qing, it is because he has his own judgment.

But for Wei Mu and Wei Kuo and his son, that is the Lord's trust in their performance.Their father and son were originally loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but since then they have simply wanted to confuse the Lord.

And as Yu State destroyed other countries one after another, many talents from other countries came to Langcheng along with the country's destruction.Of course, there are a large number of talents who swear to live and die with their own country. Therefore, many talents choose to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests with the death of their own country, and some choose not to live in an ignoble manner and commit suicide in anger.

Gu Qing didn't force them either, he even paid homage to a talented scholar from the state of Chu who threw himself into the river and died, and expressed his gratitude for his chastity.

There are many people who are unwilling to work for the State of Yu, and Gu Qing is also not reluctant. He thinks that there are national boundaries between countries, but there are many things that have no national boundaries, such as culture, poetry, music, and so on.For example, Gu Qing deplored the ancient collections that were destroyed because of the war. After repairing the history museum, he decided to make up and re-catalogue, and called on the people of the world to make a contribution to this.

This makes it difficult for many people to refuse.

It is believed that in this process, with the integration of cultures, the nation will also be integrated.

On the contrary, there are also many talents who are willing to serve the Yu country. After all, there are many talents who are depressed in this world.When they were in their original country, they had no ambitions, but they couldn't realize them. Now that they met Gu Qing, a Bole, they had a stage to display their talents, which is nothing better than anything.

All kinds of things, let Gu Qing have more energy to do what he wants to do besides dealing with government affairs, that is, start to focus on his affairs after his death, the most important thing among them is the imperial tomb.

Originally, the address of the mausoleum began to be chosen after the original body ascended the throne.But at that time, it was completely different from today. The original mausoleum was not suitable regardless of its location or planned scale.

Speaking of Gu Qing, if he is not for the drama in the future, he doesn't care about the mausoleum or not.But once he accepted the setting of "stealing his own tomb", Gu Qing found a lot of fun in it, which made him think about what the tomb should look like before.

It's not just the mausoleum, there are many other places to play, Gu Qing thought.For example, the capital city, now that Yu State has unified other countries, the original royal city Langcheng is not very suitable as a new capital city, so it is necessary to move it.Xinducheng is a very good "stage", but it is inevitable to waste money and people.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing raised his forehead and thought: Then trace and fill in other places.

Because of this, after the beginning of the new era, not only did the culture continue to flourish, but the economy did not lag behind either.Compared with the past, not to mention the qualitative improvement in some fields, but there is also progress visible to the naked eye, and the integration of various regions and ethnic groups is not slow.

From the perspective of later generations, this period of history can be regarded as a turning point in the history of the Celestial Dynasty. Before that, the Celestial Empire was full of states and endless wars. The unification made countless ethnic groups have the concept of a country and a nation for the first time, and the Celestial Dynasty began to enter a stable and prosperous period. The era of unification. The concept of "unification" also began to take root in people's minds.

But then again, this kind of fusion is not all smooth sailing, and there are still many twists and turns.Because at the beginning, it was only the country that was unified, and this is not because the country is broken, and there will be no follow-up disputes, but many people still want to restore the country, resist the country of Yu, and do not recognize Gu Qing. The Emperor.

It's a pity that no one comes to assassinate again, Gu Qing can perform another magic trick.But after thinking about it, it's enough to do this kind of thing once, and it's not like there are other tricks.

So in the second year of the Xin Dynasty, when Gu Qing went to Taishan to enshrine Zen, he walked the "immortal ladder" once.At that time, the clouds and mists were lingering, and there was a fairy palace hidden on the clouds. Gu Qing heard the sound and walked away. He walked up a few steps in the clouds on the top of the peak, as if there were stairs hidden in the clouds—there were indeed, but Others didn't know, and they wouldn't think of it, so the people who followed Gu Qing to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen were dumbfounded at the time.

This is a naked divine right of kings.

Although Gu Qing only took a few steps up, it was enough.Once this matter has been spread, coupled with the previous statement of "Panpei Assassinates the King of Yu", it is enough to deter many righteous men with active minds. He is in cahoots with Yu Chao, so Deng Xianyi's theory is quite convincing.

Because of this, Gu Qing began to wonder how the students of each family would record that scene, and what the future generations would say about these things.

Afterwards, Gu Qing inspected the territory, which seemed to be to reprimand Fang Qiu and point out Jiangshan. In fact, Gu Qing still carried out more on-the-spot investigations, matching with his memory.After the survey, he can begin to implement his plan step by step.

Among them are not only mausoleums, royal cities, etc., but also other projects that benefit the country and the people.It's like building a straight road. This straight road leads to the place where the soldiers are used in Mobei, with a total length of more than [-] kilometers.This time there is no cement, but the collective wisdom of the craftsmen of today, which is more in line with the current national conditions and will fully demonstrate the wisdom and hard work of the people of the time.

You must know that this traffic artery has complex terrain and steep roads, so a lot of effort must be made, but with this straight road, it can be used to quickly replenish the border defense, and there are many dangerous passes along the straight road. Time will have a good control effect.

The project was in charge of Huo Huaichuan's elder brother, Huo Yu, who had served as an internal historian before and was a capable minister.It can also be seen from here that the Huo family is very popular, and it is also because they are very talented.

In addition, after Huo Huaichuan was granted the title of Marquis of Wutong, he asked himself to guard the frontier. The frontier here is on the Mobei side, and on the opposite side there are nomadic peoples who have been eyeing the Central Plains.

Gu Qing estimates that this road will take two and a half years to complete.

After the completion of the project, Gu Qing will go to the border guards to take a look.Before that, apart from being busy with the planned matters, Gu Qing continued to pay attention to He Lingyu.

It was said earlier that He Lingyu is the son of Fei, and Fei's surname is He Bujia, but "Lingyu" is not his real name, He Lingyu's real name is "Li", at that time the palace called him "Master Li".When Panpei came to Yu Country to present He Lingyu's head, it wasn't He Lingyu's own, but he found a substitute, and he himself made two preparations.

One is the success of Panpei, and the other is failure.

After Panpei's failure, He Lingyu knew that Fei Guo would be finished this time, and he didn't go back to do the last struggle, so it would be a waste of him to get out of his shell like this.

After that, He Lingyu changed his name again to Fuxu.He hibernates, waiting for revenge one day, and his ultimate goal is naturally Gu Qing.

Afterwards, the rumor of "Mount Tai climbing the ladder to heaven" was widely circulated, and He Lingyu saw a path.He Lingyu was thinking about Amway seeking immortality and asking about the way of longevity. In Gu Qing's view, this is a little bit in line with Yu Lang's asking about longevity in the original plot.Then in the original plot, it is possible that He Lingyu was the one who led Yu Lang to the road of no return.

now?Although Gu Qing didn't want to die wholeheartedly, after all, he still has a lot of things to do, but there is no doubt that he has no interest in immortality, immortality, etc.

That is to say, if Gu Qing can accomplish what he planned now, he must want to die—Gu Qing has been in this parallel world for a long time. Just over a year, less than two years, I couldn't wait to leave.

Therefore, Gu Qing still wanted He Lingyu, who was renamed Fuxu, to come to him and preach to him about immortality.

Besides, up to now, Gu Qing has not met He Lingyu in person, and he still wants to communicate with He Lingyu face to face. He must be able to create a full sense of "Are you surprised? Are you surprised?" Surprise?" Dramatic.

Gu Qing thought to himself: This is a good idea, just as he still needs a daily adjustment.

The author has something to say: He Lingyu: Hehe.
