Chapter 92: Bright Mountains and Rivers

Xuzhou, Guangling County, seaside

The waves were surging, and the waves were striking on the shore. Several buildings of ships were mooring on the shore. Someone was busy carrying items on board. Seeing their clothes, they were obviously Taiping Army.

Guo Jia, wearing a dark red brocade robe, stood on the shore, and stood a group of heroic men standing in front of him, each of whom took off his armor and put on white brocade robes.

"Everyone, why bother with this?"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly. He would never have thought that Gan Ning, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Zhang Yan, Zhou Tai, and Jiang Qin would appear at the place where he was about to say goodbye.

Moreover, these seven people, with their families, obviously wanted to retire with him.

Gan Ning held his arms and smiled and said, "The world is settled. I don't want to follow my lord in the mansion. There should be a different kind of excitement in my lord."

Dian Wei grinned. His evil look was very cute no matter when Guo Jia's eyes were.

Xu Chu even slapped his chest and said in a rough voice: "Lord, I said back then that I will follow you in this life."

Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Gao Shun and Zhang Yan smiled without saying a word, obviously they were all expressing the same meaning.

The sea breeze passed by, and the clothes fluttered. Guo Jia sighed long and walked to them, saying in a deep voice: "Go back, we have been through half a lifetime of life and death. It's time to enjoy a happy life."

These are all veterans with outstanding achievements. They have accompanied Guo Jia to fight the country. Now they are bear fruit. It is completely time to stop and enjoy life.

Gan Ning shook his head and said proudly: "Is it a blessing to have a fertile land and a mansion? I never see it this way. The lord intends to go out to sea and travel far. If I can't go together, I will regret it for life!"

Guo Jia was stunned and then laughed to the sky.

"Okay, what a Gan Xingba who is light on wealth and righteousness. More than twenty years have passed in a flash. Xingba, you are still the same as before!"

Once upon a time, the Jinfan thief Qu Shuai never took money and wealth into consideration. At that time, perhaps outsiders seemed to be a pretending and free manner.

Now, high-ranking officials and generous salaries are close to each other, but he still regards them as if they are a bluster. This is indeed the coach of Jinfanqu, who Guo Jiada, who has been in love with since the first sight, and Gan Xingba!

"Since that's the case, it seems that we are destined to share the joys and sorrows in this life until we die!"

After Guo Jia smiled, he no longer advised them to change their minds.

Let's go. Heroes are born in war, and peace will only wipe out their ambitions. Instead of being in a state of depression and death, it is better to ride the wind and waves together and challenge the new journey.

The soldiers helped Gan Ning and others to send their families onto the stairs. Just as Guo Jia was about to turn around, an urgent cry came from afar.

"Father! Father!"

Guo Ye's eyes were swollen and covered with blood. He was galloping over. He was protected by tens of thousands of light riders behind him. He rode his horse to the shore. When he saw Guo Jia, he immediately turned over and dismounted, rushed over and fell to the ground.

"Father, don't leave. The civil and military officials are waiting for you, and the world is waiting for you!"

Guo Ye, who was rarely out of control, immediately burst into tears, crying like a helpless child, kneeling on the ground and coming towards Guo Jia step by step.

When he arrived in front of Guo Jia, Guo Jia reached out and gently stroked his head, and said softly: "Ye'er, your grandfather asked me to be a good emperor before his death. You know, my relationship with him is incompatible on the surface, and I can't do anything he asked me to do, but I hope you can help you fulfill his wish for your father. Being a good emperor can bring you how long peace can you bring to the people of the world, and do it as much as possible."

Guo Ye kept shook his head and cried.

Guo Jia had made up his mind and still explained to him: "If I make you the prince, you should understand that you will inherit everything I have one day, but this may be ten years or twenty years earlier than you expected. It doesn't matter. Believe in yourself, you have never let me down, right?"

A woman walked down from the boat, graceful and elegant, and was Guo Ye's biological mother Cai Yan.

At this moment, Cai Yan leaned over and hugged Guo Ye gently, lay in his ear, and whispered softly: "Ye'er, your father once said that you would not let Wei's mother take power, but he still lost. You are the most proud child of your mother. Take on this responsibility. Your father and mother are not around. It doesn't matter. As long as you remember, what is your surname? What is the blood of the Guo family flowing on you, you will overcome all suffering. Maybe one day when Tian Niang comes back, I hope to see Ye'er be a good emperor praised by the people."

Guo Ye was still crying and still shook his head, but Guo Jia had already carried Cai Yan onto the stairs.

Guo Ye stood up with tears in his eyes, looking at the boat far away, and his eyes gradually became firm.

On the boat, Cai Yan's eyes were wet. Guo Jia closed his eyes for a long time before opening his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

Seeing the scenery on the shore swaying by, Guo Jia stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the wives and concubines behind him, and held Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao in his arms, looked at the outline of the green mountains far away on the shore, and murmured: "This beautiful mountain and river can be seen from afar."

Five days later, Guo Jia's ship arrived in Yangzhou, where there were 50,000 Taiping troops and sufficiently prepared materials that Guo Jia wanted to take away.

But on a newly built pier by the sea of ​​Yangzhou, in addition to the dense warships, there is also a newly built building ship. The name on the banners made Guo Jia stunned.

"Dad! It's aunt!"

Guo Yu pointed at the boat not far away from the other side at the bow and shouted in surprise.

With three sons, Guo Jia took the young Guo Yu outside to see the novelty of the world, so he was on the boat.

When Guo Jia walked out of the cabin, he was rubbing his eyes and seeing the ship opposite clearly, he opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time.

"Bad brother-in-law!"

Miss Zhen Si Zhen Rong stood at the bow of the boat with her waist on both sides, with both sides of Zhen Mi who looked as elegant as a stunning and elegant Zhu Rong who was outstanding and charming.

Zhen Rong is already a complete old girl, thirty!

Zhen Mi is already twenty-five or six, and Zhurong is almost the same.

There will be no good things for these three old girls to get together!

Before Guo Jia could come back to his senses, Zhen Rong took Zhen Mi and Zhu Rong angrily on the ship on Guo Jia's side.

Zhen Rong rushed over and started fighting Guo Jia, crying aggrievedly while beating.

"If the fifth sister hadn't said that her brother-in-law would definitely come to Yangzhou before leaving, and her brother-in-law disappeared without a sound, killing you, killing you..."

The Taiping Army's warships took over the remaining warships and other maritime supplies in Jiangdong were all in Yangzhou. Guo Jia set out from Xuzhou, so he naturally had to come to Yangzhou.

Since the Zhen sisters learned that all Guo Jia's family members had left Chengdu, they thought that Guo Jia was about to ascend the throne and become emperor, so they naturally had to move their family to the capital, but there was no news, which made the Zhen sisters panic.

Now Zhen Mi's face was also flushed. After being fussed like this, she lost all her face.

Guo Jia held Zhen Rong in his arms. The middle-aged man had taken off all the burden at this moment, completely like the frivolity he was when he was young, without any scruples. While hugging Zhen Rong, who suddenly calmed down and buried his head on his shoulder, he looked at Zhen Mi. Zhen Mi's pure and beautiful face was red and she lowered her head shyly. Guo Jia looked at Zhurong again and asked, "Come on, come and join in the fun?"

Zhu Rong curled his hair with his fingers, looked at the sea, and said indifferently: "You want to travel far away, I will follow you to see the world."

After saying that, Qiubo raised his eyebrows at Guo Jia with undercurrents, with endless charm.

Since I know it is a fire pit and someone is willing to jump, Guo Jia will accept it as planned.

He went over without any etiquette and hugged Zhen Mi in his arms. Guo Jia walked towards the cabin without looking back.

Guo Yu, who pretended to ignore, faced the sea, but was shocked by Guo Jia's shout.

"Son, go call your mother, and I will say we will hold a wedding banquet today!"

......

After returning to Luoyang, Guo Ye moved the Guo family to Chang'an first. After Guo Jia left, Guo Jin and Guo Ying were left behind in the family, others including his young sister and Sun Shangxiang's newly born daughter were taken away.

The world was unified, Guo Ye ascended the throne and became emperor, and the country was named Tang.

It is not by chance to choose a Tang Dynasty, but when Guo Ye visited Guo Jia's study, he often found that Guo Jia would splash ink and always write down the word Tang Dynasty.

In fact, this Tang Dynasty was Guo Jia's surname in his previous life. He wrote it from time to time, intentionally or unintentionally, and it was a kind of remembrance.

The new country was first established and the world was amnesty.

The government and the country were completely renewed, with important officials from the older generation who made great contributions, such as Xi Zhicai, Xu Shu, Qin Mi, Pang Tong, etc., as well as new talents, Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, Liu Ba, Lu Xun, etc.

Although many tiger generals were separated from the military generals, there were also Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Pang De, Yan Yan, Zhang Ren, Deng Zhi and other mainstays of the Taiping Army, as well as the new generation Dianman, Xu Yi, Zhang Hu, Zhang Fang, Gan Gui, Deng Ai, Jiang Wei, Zhang Yi and others as successors.

After Guo Ye ascended the throne, he first reformed the chaotic bureaucratic system left behind by the Qin and Han dynasties, using a more complete and strict three-province and six-minister system.

From then on, the feudal political system matured, and this system continued to perish in feudal society.

As soon as he ascended the throne, Guo Ye, who was diligent in government affairs, welcomed the letter from Ma Jun, the Minister of Works.

Looking at the few things presented by Ma Jun, Guo Ye looked at them one by one and asked in confusion: "What are these?"

Ma Jun immediately introduced: "These are all handed over to the lower lord before leaving. This is the stirrup, this is the horseshoe, this is the saddle..."

After fully understanding the use of these things, Guo Ye was stunned.

These were all left by Guo Jia for him, for the purpose of conquering the nomadic aliens in the north in the future after the world is settled!

Three years since Guo Ye ascended the throne, there have been occasional rebellions in various parts of the country, and they have been suppressed by Thunder.

After that, it entered a new period of rapid development.

Eight years later, veteran Zhao Yun and Ma Chao were in charge, and Zhuge Liang was the military advisor. Dianman, Xu Yi, Gan Gui, Zhang Hu, Zhang Fang, Jiang Wei, Deng Ai and other generals all went out to fight, leading 100,000 iron cavalry and 100,000 powerful arch and crossbow troops to fight the Northern Expedition!

The millions of Qiang, Hu and Xianbei clans were massacred, and the foreign races were destroyed wherever the Taiping Army passed!

This battle was no less successful than the Han Wushu sealed Langjuxu.

Three more years later, Guo Ye, who had ascended the throne for nearly fifteen years, went to Mount Tai with all the civil and military officials and soldiers!

After some riots in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, peace and stability in the country, national strength is booming, and great achievements in attacking foreign races in the north. Guo Ye has been diligent in his work and loving the people for more than ten years. This time he went to Mount Tai for Fengshan, and the officials requested him, which was what the people hoped.

Guo Ye, who is nearly forty years old, always looks a bit like Guo Jiaru's elegant and handsome back then.

The sky was bright, and on the way to Mount Tai, there were 100,000 Taiping Army guards along the way, and all officials followed. Even many officials who retired and returned home, such as Xi Zhicai, rushed to the scene one by one.

In the imperial guards, Guo Ye sat in the imperial carriage, his hands landed on the handrail made of gold.

Gold is different from other metals. Other metals will heat up when touched by hands, but gold is as cold as a god. Guo Ye likes to hold gold objects in his hand, not because gold is precious and dazzling, but always uses a cold touch to remind him to calm down.

This eternal law is the most important law of survival his father taught him.

A boy next to him was reading carefully with a book in his hand. Sometimes he would look up and ask Guo Ye if he didn't understand it. This was the only descendant he brought to the Fengshan ceremony this time, and his surname was Guo and his name was Hong.

Guo Ye closed his eyes and rested, and his father's voice, appearance and smile always appeared in his mind.
