In Fuyang County, Wei County, Li Mi let out a long sigh. Handan finally fell into the hands of Gao Changqing. Yu Wenhua and the large amount of treasures and property plundered from Jiangdu naturally benefited Gao Changqing. He had been busy for several months and lost many troops.

The general was exhausted, and in the end almost no benefits were gained. Even Dou Jiande's territory was handed over to Gao Changqing. In this way, Gao Changqing's strength was undoubtedly stronger, and his next move into the Central Plains was a foregone conclusion.

For a time, Li Mi finally realized the helpless feeling of "how to be bright when you are born with Yu"!

However, as the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs and misfortunes never come alone. Just as Li Mi was sighing, another piece of bad news came. Wang Shichong suddenly launched a mutiny in Luoyang City, and together with Duan Da, killed Lu Chu, Yuan Wendu and others.

, completely controlled the entire city of Luoyang, which means that Wang Shichong now has the final say in Luoyang, and the Yue King Yang Tong has become a complete puppet emperor.

Li Mi couldn't help but cry without tears. He deliberately tried to win the favor of King Yang Tong of Yue, and also sent money and goods to make friends with Lu Chu, Yuan Wendu and others. The results were impressive. He thought he could enter Luoyang City to "assist in government" after returning.

", but Wang Shichong suddenly intercepted Hu, completely shattering his illusions.

Li Mi felt miserable. Here he lost his wife and lost his army, so he gave Gao Bufan free clothes for his wedding. Over there, he stole the chicken but failed and lost all the rice. He was so aggrieved that he almost vomited three liters of blood.

Li Mi thought about it and felt that he should take advantage of the unstable situation after Wang Shichong's mutiny to quickly capture Luoyang, so he hurriedly led his troops back to Luoyang. As for Liyangcang, he assigned Bing Yuanzhen to guard it.

Li Mi was very angry and wary of Shan Xiongxin's defection to Gao Bufan. He was afraid that Pei Renji would also betray him, so he decisively transferred him out of Liyangcang and took him with him to take care of him. After all, Pei Renji's son Pei Xingyan was under Gao Bufan's command.

Effectiveness, so Pei Renji is very likely to rebel, and he must not be allowed to guard Liyangcang anymore.

…………

There is a lake in the south of Handan City, covered with green lotuses and water chestnuts. It is midsummer, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and the lotus leaves are in the fields. It is exactly like this: the leaves are endlessly green against the sky, and the lotus flowers are particularly red when reflecting the sun. But I saw a fishing boat floating on the blue waves.

Wandering on the boat, walking among lotus leaves and lotus flowers, it is natural and freehand. Yang Qingruo gently shakes the oar, and the lake breeze blows her dark and soft black hair, which is as beautiful as poetry and picturesque.

At this time, Yang Qingruo was wearing an aqua high-waisted pleated skirt with a belt tied above her chest. She had towering peaks and proud curves. Her upper body was covered with a pale pink wide-sleeved coat. She was not masked or wearing any clothes. Under the sunlight.

, that stunning face is so beautiful that it makes people feel relaxed and happy, as if it makes the lotus flowers around them eclipse.

Gao Bufan was sitting in the cabin of the fishing boat, contentedly admiring Yang Qingruo's beautiful appearance while rowing. From time to time, he showed a look of drunkenness. Even Yang Qing was a little embarrassed by this guy.

She frowned and said angrily: "His Royal Highness, King Qi, has seen enough. Have you seen him?"

Gao Bufan said with a calm expression: "It's definitely not the case. Who made Gongsun and his family so beautiful and fascinated me? I can't get enough of them in my lifetime. Well, Gongsun and his family are beautiful and beautiful, and they are truly worthy of their reputation."

Yang Qingruo felt sweet in her heart, glanced at her, and said with a sweet smile: "It turns out that His Highness Prince Qi likes Ying Xiu. Do you want to be Ying Xiu's guest?"

Gao Bufan swallowed his saliva and said, "Is it okay?"

Yang Qingruo's pretty face suddenly darkened, and she said coldly: "Men are indeed not good things."

Gao Bufan was shocked: "Qingruo, you won't even be jealous of yourself, right?"

Yang Qingruo burst into laughter, and then said a little savagely: "Are you scared? Let's see if you still dare to provoke me."

Gao Bufan smiled and said: "I don't dare, Mr. Manager, Xiao Wang will peel off a water chestnut for you to eat. If Xiao Wang serves well, you can give Xiao Wang a few more smiles." After that, he took the plate from the plate in front of him.

Pick up a water chestnut.

The water chestnuts were just picked from the lake and were very fresh. Gao Bufan picked up the water chestnuts and pretended to peel them, but his left shoulder was injured and he couldn't use any strength at all. He couldn't peel them with just one hand, so he subconsciously raised his left hand.

, as a result, the wound was affected, and he couldn't help but groan.

Yang Qingruo quickly put down the oar, stretched out his hand and snatched the water chestnut from someone's hand. He peeled off the water chestnut with a few snaps of his slender jade fingers, and then fed it into Gao Bufan's mouth. He scolded: "You are injured and you still follow others' example."

Be attentive!"

Gao Bufan ate the sweet water chestnuts and showed a sly smile. Yang Qingruo gave the former a cute look. In fact, it was not that she couldn't see this guy's tricks, but she couldn't help but feel sad when she saw his frowning and groaning expression.

So I just doted on this guy subconsciously.

"Fresh water chestnuts are still delicious, Qingruo, you should try it too." Gao Bufan brought a peeled water chestnut to Yang Qingruo's lips, and the latter gently bit it and ate it.

Gao Bufan took the opportunity to lean forward and quickly took a bite on the bright little mouth. He felt that it was soft and cool, and the more touching it was, the more touching it was.

Yang Qingruo's face was full of pink, and he was about to hit him. Gao Bufan immediately pointed to his shoulder and said shamelessly: "I am a wounded soldier, so I will receive preferential treatment!"

Yang Qingruo was both angry and funny, but when she thought of the bad guy's way of blocking the knife for her, her heart softened, and she really couldn't fight anymore. She took back her pink fist angrily, but someone unexpectedly licked it again.

The lips showed an endless aftertaste.

So Manager Yang's finger punishment came to someone's waist, and the pain made him grin, regretting it, and begging for mercy!

The two of them were fighting and making love, and unknowingly they sailed into the depths of the lotus leaves. Gao Dahe and other soldiers very wisely held the boat and patrolled dozens of meters away, so as not to disturb His Highness King Qi.

good thing.

The lotus leaves are very dense and more than one meter above the water, just like umbrellas. The sunlight leaks down, casting light spots one after another on the clear lake water, and the fish swimming underwater can also be clearly seen.

I don't know when, Yang Qingruo has snuggled into Gao Bufan's arms tenderly. Gao Bufan put his arms around her beautiful waist and smelled the fragrance between her hair. The two of them just like this, quietly admiring the brilliant lotus flowers flying over.

The flying dragonflies and the occasional carp swimming under the lotus leaves were all so warm and beautiful, even time seemed to have stopped.

Wow...

A big golden carp suddenly jumped out of the water, picked up a lotus petal, plopped back into the water, and then dived back to the bottom of the lake with its head and tail wagging.

Yang Qingruo's beautiful eyes flashed and she asked in surprise: "Bad guy, did you see that the carp actually took a lotus petal in its mouth? This is the first time I have seen such a strange thing."

Gao Bufan smiled and said: "I saw it, it's a male carp!"

Yang Qingruo said in astonishment: "How do you know?"

"Otherwise, why would it pick lotus flowers? Of course it would be given to the female carp." Gao Bufan said, reaching out and cutting off a budding lotus flower, and then gently inserted it into Yang Qingruo's bun. It looked so good!

Yang Qingruo spat lightly, and said with joy and embarrassment: "That's nonsense! This smooth-tongued guy has deceived many women."

Gao Bufan's heart skipped a beat, he hugged Yang Qingruo's slender waist, took a sip of fragrance on that beautiful face, and said softly: "Qingruo, you promised last time that you would stay with me for the rest of your life after you finish the work, right? ?”

Yang Qingruo's delicate body trembled slightly, she lowered her head and remained silent. Gao Bufan couldn't help but feel tight in his heart, and frowned: "Could it be that Qingruo, you want to regret it?"

Seeing this guy so nervous, Yang Qingruo was both happy and angry, and said shyly: "Who has regretted it? It's just...how are you going to arrange for me?"

Gao Bufan said matter-of-factly: "Of course the matchmaker is marrying her, and she has been married in a big red sedan chair."

Yang Qingruo bit her lips and said, "But you already have a wife and two concubines, how do you want Qingruo to deal with herself?"

Gao Bufan couldn't help but suddenly realized that although he didn't care about his status, Qingruo did, and so did his subordinates.

When Yang Qingruo saw Gao Bufan's silence, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart. He lowered his eyes and said nothing, feeling sad.

Gao Bufan quickly hugged Yang Qingruo's slender waist, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Rules are also set by people. Didn't Emperor Xuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty also have five queens? I will never let you Qingruo be wronged."

Yang Qingruo's delicate body trembled slightly, and she quickly stretched out her jade hand to cover Gao Bu's mouth, frowning and saying: "If you follow the example of the king who subjugated the country, wouldn't it mean that Qingruo will be burdened with infamy for the rest of his life? Don't mention it again in the future. .”

Gao Bufan grabbed Yang Qingruo's hand and smiled easily: "People scold Emperor Xuan of Zhou for being ridiculous not because he established five queens, but because he destroyed the country. If he could make Northern Zhou stronger, let alone establish five queens." Queen, even if there are a hundred queens, future generations will praise him as a wise monarch."

This is indeed a fact. History is always written by the victors. Take Li Shimin as an example. He relied on the Xuanwumen rebellion to rise to power. The things he did that were contrary to human nature were jaw-dropping and even outrageous. The law prevented him from becoming one of the wisest and greatest monarchs in history. This is the power of the pen. Under the polish of the pens, the winner is justice and greatness.

Yang Qingruo was moved in her heart. She turned around and hugged Gao Bufan, gave him a sweet kiss, and then said softly: "But doing this will damage your reputation after all. In fact, you can have such thoughts, Qingruo is already satisfied, Qingruo I don’t want to argue with them, as long as you can be nice to me.”

Gao Bufan was both moved and surprised. He didn't expect Qing Ruo, a jealous little boy, to be so generous. He gently stroked the hair on the back of his head and said, "Qing Ruo, you know me. I've always been informal and don't care about my status." I value it too much. At home, I treat Wu Gu and the others equally, and it will be the same when Qing Ruo comes into the house in the future. Well, I will ask Du Ruhui to think about the etiquette later, and then I will marry Qing Ruo to you happily. Let Qingruo make you feel wronged."
