Changsun Wugou's mother, Mrs. Gao, believed in Buddhism, and Changsun Sheng must have believed in it too, so she gave her daughter the nickname "Guanyin Maid" in the hope that her daughter would be blessed by Guanyin Bodhisattva and live a safe and healthy life.

big.

The eldest grandson, Wugao, has been influenced by Buddhism since he was a child, so he also believed in Buddhism and developed a generous and gentle character. When such a woman becomes the mother of the country, she is indeed a blessing to the courtiers and the people of the world.

At this time, Changsun Wujia was sitting quietly on the carriage, with a Buddhist scripture on his knees and he was reading it carefully. The quiet and dignified beauty was difficult to describe in words. Anyway, it was eye-catching.

This is a hand-copied "Huayan Sutra", which was given to her by Gao, but the handwriting on it was strong and powerful, and it did not seem to be from a woman's hand, until Changsun Wugou turned to the last page and saw the words on the back cover.

A line of small words made her pretty face heat up, and she quickly closed the Buddhist scripture.

It turned out that the signature on the last page was actually Gao Bufan. According to the simple description above, we can know that this "Huayan Sutra" was a birthday gift that Gao Bufan personally copied to his mother. Now Gao's mother actually gave it to her eldest grandson Wugao.

.

From this point of view, what Gao Kaishan said is right. The Gao family really liked Changsun Wugou, and he did not hesitate to play some tricks. He really fulfilled the words of "poor parents in the world"!

Changsun Wugu closed the Buddhist scripture with a blushing face. After a while, he couldn't help opening it and took a look at the signature. Then he quickly threw the Buddhist scripture next to his seat, as if the Buddhist scripture was hot to his hands!

After opening the curtains of the carriage, he could see the greenery in the distance and the clear autumn clouds. Changsun Wugou's pounding heartbeat slowly calmed down. However, the scenery in front of him reminded him of Gao Bufan's farewell poem, which suddenly added a little more worry!

"Oh, if I had known better, I wouldn't have come to Gan County with my father!" Little Loli lamented.

Before the sunset completely set, Changsun Sheng and his party returned to Quan County. After dinner, Changsun Sheng invited Gao Shilian to the study room. He did not ask him to find out the origin of Ma Xingkong at Feiyu Racecourse, but handed the crossbow barrel to him.

Give it to him.

Gao Shilian took the crossbow and looked at it carefully for a moment, then asked doubtfully: "Brother, where did you get this?"

Changsun Sheng frowned and said: "A dead soldier assassinated Gao Kaishan and his son. This was found from the dead soldier."

Gao Shilian's expression changed and he said in disbelief: "Dead soldiers? Could it be that Yufang Huaji was so crazy that he sent out dead soldiers to retaliate against Gao Changqing, without giving you any face at all, eldest brother?"

Changsun Sheng shook his head and said: "It's not Yu Wenji."

Gao Shilian was even more puzzled. There were probably not many forces in the Sui Dynasty that could raise dead soldiers. Gao Kaishan and his son were just horse breeders. How could there be dead soldiers to assassinate them? Wait...raise horses?

Gao Shilian seemed to have caught something and looked at Changsun Sheng in surprise. The latter nodded imperceptibly and said: "The only thing that Gao Kaishan and his son can covet is the horse farm. Think about it, who wants the most in the court now?"

War horse?"

Gao Shilian trembled slightly, lowered his head and remained silent. Changsun Sheng took back the crossbow barrel from his hand and said softly: "Shilian, I know that you are anxious, but there are some things that cannot be rushed. From now on, you should stay away from the Ministry of War."

Although the Sui Dynasty was unstable due to the coming and going of political affairs in Sri Lanka, it still had strong troops and strong horses.

There is no possibility of overturning in time. Let’s wait and see the outcome of the emperor’s eastern expedition to Goryeo. If it succeeds, those thieves will be nothing more than scabies. So at this time, be careful not to act rashly. The best way is to wait and see. That person must be

I’m not stupid enough to take action now.”

Gao Shilian bowed in shame and said: "Big brother has taught me a lesson. I will keep a distance from Hu Sizheng in the future!"

Changsun Sheng nodded and waved his hand tiredly: "Go back and rest, we have to set off tomorrow."

Gao Shilian hummed, but hesitated to speak. Changsun Sheng frowned and said, "You want to say something about Wu Gu?"

Gao Shilian nodded: "My brother is a little confused. Although Gao Changqing is outstanding, his help to the eldest son's family is far inferior to that of Li Shimin. Why does the eldest brother..."

Changsun Sheng smiled and said: "Xiaofan has potential, shouldn't we give him a chance? Besides, Changsun's family doesn't have to just focus on a tree. Whoever wants to marry Wu Gu should do so on his own merit!"

Gao Shilian nodded after hearing this and left the room silently!

…

Brother Yuwen has left, and so has Chang Sun Sheng and his entourage. Gao Bufan's life seems to have returned to its previous calm. In addition to practicing every day, he helps his family take care of the pasture, which is down-to-earth and busy!

However, Quan County and Zhangnan County were not peaceful at all, or the entire Sui Dynasty was not peaceful either, because Emperor Yang Guangdong of the Sui Dynasty was about to march, and materials from all over the country were being transported to Zhuo County in the north.

The servants are also marching towards Zhuojun one after another. With millions of troops mobilized, one can imagine the momentum and wide impact.

The horses from the Flying Eagle Racecourse will be ready for the slaughter at the end of September. According to the practice of previous years, the horses have to be sent to Luoyang, the eastern capital, for delivery by the horse farm itself. They will be inspected by officials from the Taipus Temple. If they are passed, the imperial court will allocate funds to the horse farm.

.

Therefore, the delivery of war horses every year is the top priority of the racecourse. There is no room for sloppiness. Usually, the racecourse must be ready for delivery two months in advance. No mistakes can be made at this time. If the horse gets sick or loses weight, it will take a lot of hard work for a year.

If you work hard in vain, you may be severely punished.

So since the beginning of August, everyone in the Gao family has been on edge. Gao Kaishan and Butler Xia have been facing a formidable enemy. They are as busy as a snail every day.

However, the racecourse is now facing a problem, that is, the stored bean feed is not enough. Before setting off to Luoyang to deliver the war horse, it must be prepared with enough bean feed. Otherwise, once the food is out, the war horse will lose fat. If it loses fat, it will be considered useless. It must have passed Taipu Temple.

The acceptance level.

Therefore, during this period, the focus of Gao Kaishan and Xia Guanjia's work was to purchase soybean feed. They would leave early and return late every day, and even go out for several days. But at this time, the county officials were under pressure and were making great efforts to encircle and suppress the people in Gaojibo.

Bandits and bandits blocked roads everywhere, causing great inconvenience to the purchase of beans.

The most annoying thing is that although Song Qichen, the leading commander of Bohai County, went out to suppress the bandits with great fanfare, he had no success at all. Instead, he was exhausted by the elusive bandits. Not only did the ruthless bandit Zhang Jincheng increase in power, but he went out to rob homes and rob houses without restraint.

, even Sun Anzu, the general who had just raised the mountain, took the opportunity to recruit troops from all over the country. In just one month, the number of soldiers increased from a hundred to five or six hundred.

However, Sun Anzu is quite conscientious. He only robs property and food and rarely hurts people. Unlike Zhang Jincheng and his gang, they do not leave anyone alive every time they work. Oh, except for women, who will be snatched back to the village by them.

Become a woman for bandits to vent their desires.

On this day, Gao Kaishan, who had gone out to buy beans, returned to the racecourse worriedly, and immediately notified everyone to be more vigilant, and even distributed bows and arrows to the servants responsible for patrolling the racecourse.

When Gao Bufan saw this, he knew something was unusual. When he asked, he found out that the captain, Song Qichen, had been defeated by Zhang Jincheng's group. Not only did all his troops suffer heavy casualties, but Song Qichen himself was also beheaded by Zhang Jinchen.

The whole county was shocked for a while!

You must know that although the thousand soldiers and horses under Song Qichen are not many, they are the main armed force in the county. Now that they are gone, the wealthy gentry and wealthy households in the entire Bohai County will undoubtedly become meat on the chopping block of the bandits.

Strange.

For a time, everyone with some wealth wanted to hide in the city. Those who really couldn't let go of their family and property also joined forces and stepped up their vigilance. Places like the Flying Eagle Racecourse that produced war horses naturally became the first priority for bandits.

Goal, no wonder Gao Kaishan is so nervous!
