"General Dugu, I will see my sincerity in times of trouble. I am very pleased that you can come." Yuan Ziyou personally went out of the palace to welcome Dugu Ruwan. His eyes were filled with tears, and his true feelings were filled with them. Even the boots under his feet were stomped over.

Although Dugu Ruyuan knew that this was an emperor's mind that won people's hearts, he still felt a heat flowing in his heart.

"As a minister, it is the duty of a minister to eliminate traitors." Dugu said firmly.

"Hahaha, if the world is like my beloved, why would I end up in such a land?" Yuan Ziyou laughed.

Chen Chu followed Dugu Ruyuan and looked at the short-lived emperor in front of him. This was the first time Chen Chu saw a living emperor.

Apart from wearing a dragon robe, he looks like an actor in the crew.

There is no imagined emperor's aura or domineering spirit at all.

But I can understand it even if I think about it. After all, Yuan Ziyou has only been in power for less than two years. In the past two years, he has lived a timid life under the oppression of Er Zhu Rong, his father-in-law, and is worried.

But he is indeed a ruthless man. Erzhu Rong, a powerful hero, was killed by Yuan Ziyou in front of him.

No matter what means or method is used, it is definitely not as simple as it seems.

This sentence makes some sense when a dog that can bite people does not bark.

After Yuan Ziyou and Dugu gained a relationship, they organized a banquet on the same day to invite many "loyal ministers and righteous men" who came to "rescue the emperor".

Gao Huan, Hou Jing, Gao Aocao...

When the banquet reached its climax, Yuan Ziyou left the table on the grounds of physical discomfort. As Yuan Ziyou left, the atmosphere of the banquet was much easier. Gao Huan, who was sitting on the upper side, picked up the wine glass, with a bit of ruffled charm, and now he walked to Dugu Rusheng, "General Dugu is really a loyal minister. I heard that General Dugu is promoted by Zhu Rong, and many people in the court thought that the general would not come. Unexpectedly, General Dugu made everyone unexpected."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people's eyes at Dugu Ruyuan changed a little.

Dugu Ruyuan's face was as usual and said lightly: "I heard that the assassination official Gao once advised Erzhu Rong to be emperor, but Erzhu Rong refused it all at once. I wonder if this matter is true or false?"

A trace of horror flashed in Gao Huan's eyes, but he soon hid it.

How did he know about this?

"Nonsense!" Gao Huan shouted coldly, and pulled out his long sword from his waist and pointed it at Dugu Ruyuan. "How can I, Gao Huan, be slandered? If I can't come up with evidence, don't blame me for splattering blood with you five steps today!"

"So what if I come up with evidence? If you don't know, don't do it unless you do it." Dugu Ruyuan's expression was as usual. Although he carried a sword around his waist, he had no intention of drawing the sword at all.

Just sat calmly in place, his eyes piercing Gao Huan's heart.

Gao Huan was shocked and wondered whether Dugu Ruyuan was really in evidence, because... he had done this.

Others in the field also saw some clues.

Judging from Gao Huan's reaction, perhaps this matter is really true. If it is true... Gao Huan is probably another type of Erzhu Rong character.

But no one dared to stand up and say bluntly, because Gao Huan is powerful and is the first among the forces aiding Beijing.

Feeling the gazes of others, Gao Huan kept silent.

"General Dugu is drunk!" Gao Huan put away his long sword and turned back to his seat.

If someone with a thinner face might have left the banquet.

But Gao Huan was still sitting in the seat, holding a wine glass, and clinking with the people around him, smiling.

After the banquet, Dugu Ruyuan, led by the eunuch, moved into the mansion arranged for him by Yuan Ziyou.

"You and Gao Huan are probably going to have a bond." Chen Chu Youran said.

"He will provoke me first. If it weren't for the fact that the enemy is in front of me, I'll kill this guy with one sword." Dugu Ruyuan said coldly, never calm down during the meal.

Only in front of the closest people can he show his truest side.

"Do you know what Gao Huan's biggest reliance is?"

"The wealthy families in Jinzhou support it?"

"No, it's a 200,000-strong army of Ge Rong's old subordinates."

Dugu Ruyuan narrowed his eyes.

"Compared with Gao Huan, you have been in Ge Rong's army for a longer time. You always know some friends. Traitors like Gao Huan can trick the army, which means that those people don't care much about these things, but that's right. As long as they survive, they have a bite of food and military pay, how can these troops care about fighting for whom in this troubled era?" Chen Chu said. "And this is a 200,000 army. If they stayed at Gao Huan, wouldn't it help the evildoer?"

"I know what I want." Dugu pondered.

He had an idea.

"But... Brother Yuwen should be in Luoyang soon." Dugu Ruyuan looked into the sky in the distance.

He and Yuwen Tai were friends from fellow villagers and met since childhood. When he killed Wei Kehu, the general of the rebel army, he fought side by side and had a friendship with his comrades.

Before leaving, he sent someone to send a letter to Yuwen Tai.

Calculate the time, it should be the time.

Yuwen Tai... After hearing what Dugu Ruyuan said, a young man he had seen many years ago appeared in Chen Chu's mind.

He does not have the handsomeness of Dugu Ruyuan, but he has another unique temperament.

Just like the eagle on the wild grassland, thriving in heroic posture, confident and passionate.

More importantly, this person has a scheming mind. Even if he prefers to see his wish when he grows up, he has to admit that Yuwen Tai is better in terms of comprehensive abilities.

......

"Brother!" Dugu Ruyuan met Yuwen Tai and greeted him warmly.

"I haven't seen each other for two years, my brother has made such a famous name. When I came, I could hear many folk songs from children on the way." Yuwen Tai joked.

"Haha, no one can guess this, but my brother can't guess it." Dugu Ruyuan felt a little ashamed.

Yuwen Tai smiled but said nothing, "I have read the contents of my brother's letter. This time, I came here, one to support the royal family, two to the future of you and my brothers, and three to kill Gao Huan. Do you know that I am now working under Lord Hebayue. Lord Hebayue once advised Erzhu Rong to kill Gao Huan. He had long seen that Gao Huan was also an ambitious person, but he did not succeed for various reasons, but this was the last chance."

"Gao Huan is now in Jinzhou, and Ge Rong's old subordinate elites. Erzhu Rong was fine when he was there. After Erzhu Rong was killed, Gao Huan's power surged. I had heard about the banquet today when I came. Although I was a little impulsive, it is not a bad choice to reveal Gao Huan's true face."

Yuwen Tai's eyes were bright, "Brother, according to my calculations, Erzhu Rong's army will be defeated this time. If all the defeated troops are accepted by Gao Huan, this person's power may be expanded to an uncontrollable level. Moreover, this person is insidious and cunning, and his martial arts are not inferior to Erzhu Rong, which is probably more difficult to deal with than Erzhu Rong. Therefore, this is the best opportunity to kill Gao Huan, clear the rebels, revitalize the court, and rest for another ten years. You and I are in their prime. Isn't it great to go south to pacify Nanliang and unify the world?"

"I didn't want to come because there was no one available in Luoyang, so it was difficult to kill Gao Huan. But suddenly I learned that my brother led a large army into Luoyang. I think there is still something to do about this. Can you help me?"

Dugu Ruwan was inspired by his blood, "How dare he not obey?"

Chen Chu, who was standing aside, shook his head speechlessly. Sometimes fate is really hard to explain.

This Yuwen Tai is like Dugu Ruyuan's destiny. This kid is usually very smart, but it is not very good when facing a specific person...

But Yuwen Tai is right. With his help, he might really achieve this great achievement.

Because he was Yuwen Tai, the founder of the Northern Zhou regime, and the creator of the government system, he governed the country with thirty-six strategies and established the Eight-Pillar Kingdom. Under his governance, the Northern Zhou finally annexed the north and was replaced by Yang Jian for some reason to the Sui Dynasty, thus using the huge capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to unify the world.
