Chapter 3: Two shining stars, brilliant martial arts!
The western area of Daxing City!
This is a house covering a very large area.
Just from the appearance, you can tell the extraordinary status of the owner of this place.
In front of the majestic gate.
Twelve long spears stood upright!
The pitch-black halberd was already covered with spots of rust.
It seems that it has been standing there for quite a long time.
But that's the case.
There was still a hint of murderous intent on each halberd.
Look from afar.
That reddish-brown rust.
It's like wisps of dried blood.
It makes people feel respect unconsciously.
The nobles hold up their halberds!
This is the symbol of a military family.
And it is definitely not an ordinary family.
Only a famous general who has made outstanding contributions on the battlefield can enjoy this honor.
But what is strange is that.
A general who can have such meritorious service.
According to common sense, he must be in a high position and enjoy all the glory.
But this house is deserted.
Apart from the magnificent house and the straight spear.
There is nothing else special about it.
The vast grounds of the house add a unique sense of desolation.
However, if they are the people of Daxing City.
Or anyone who is slightly familiar with the Sui Dynasty court would not be surprised.
The Sui Dynasty was founded.
In terms of merit, the Nine Elders of the Sui Dynasty come first.
Among the nine elders, each of them has experienced hundreds of battles and has made countless military achievements.
Of course, there are differences in terms of merit.
And among them, there were only three people who were qualified to stand twelve spears outside the palace, even among the nine elders.
Among them, Yang Lin, the King of Backers, is naturally one of them.
However, although King Kaoshan Yang Lin also came from the military and was very famous, in addition to his royal status, he relied more on his own bravery.
When it comes to deploying troops and leading large-scale battles with hundreds of thousands of troops.
The other two were much better.
One of them is Yang Su, Duke of Yue.
The other one is Duke Gao Jiong of Qi.
These two people were the most important figures under Yang Jian at the time.
Although on the surface, Gao Jiong was a civil official and Yang Su was a military official.
But in fact, both of them are talented in both literature and martial arts.
Yang Su had experience as a prime minister in the imperial court, and Gao Jiong also had experience fighting on the battlefield.
It was with the help of these two people.
Only the Great Sui Dynasty at that time could conquer all the countries with its might and terrify the world.
Gao Jiong, Yang Su.
These two people can be said to be the real gods of war in the Sui Dynasty.
The twin stars of glory!
Of course, times have changed.
Today it is today.
These two war god-level figures have passed away one after another.
This is also the reason why the Sui Dynasty has been quite stable in recent years and has not used large-scale military forces.
And this house.
It was the Mansion of the Duke of Qi, which was also the residence of Gao Jiong.
Logically speaking, with Gao Jiong's achievements and prestige at that time.
Even after he passed away, his mansion shouldn't be so deserted.
But in fact, this is not the case.
When the Sui Dynasty was first established.
Gao Jiong and Yang Su worked together, and the Sui army advanced rapidly and with great momentum.
Both Gao Jiong and Yang Su were honored and favored in the court.
But as the Sui Dynasty stabilized and the war ceased, the contradictions shifted from external to internal.
Opening Queen period.
A series of disputes arose in the court of the Sui Dynasty.
Various conflicts also occurred between Gao Jiong and Yang Su, the two stars of the Sui Dynasty.
As for the specific reasons, no one knows. In short, both Gao Jiong and Yang Su were suddenly suppressed in the court.
Gao Jiong, in particular, was stripped of all his positions and only retained the title of Duke of Qi.
The Gao family's status also plummeted in an instant.
Although the Yang family, to which Yang Su belonged, was not affected in the same way, it was also greatly affected.
And not long after.
Emperor Yang Jian of Sui, Duke Gao Jiong of Qi, and Duke Yang Su of Yue, the three monarchs and ministers who worked together to establish the foundation of the Sui Dynasty, passed away one after another, causing countless people to sigh.
In Gao Mansion.
Somewhere in a room.
A young man was meditating with his eyes closed on the bed.
But soon, he slowly opened his eyes.
Because there were footsteps outside the house.
"Master?"
"It's Gao Bo, come in!"
The door opened and a hunchbacked old man walked in.
"Is Gao Bo okay?"
"Master, someone from the palace just sent a message to summon you to join the army!"
Gao Bo spoke up.
There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but at the same time mixed with some joy and excitement.
"In the palace? Is it an imperial edict? Why didn't you come to inform me?" the man asked puzzledly.
"No, it's not an imperial decree. It's the subordinates of King Kaoshan who came."
"It is said that it was the intention of the Patron King, and this time it is not only you, the young master, who are being recruited, but also several descendants of meritorious service."
The old man spoke repeatedly, hesitated for a moment, and then added:
"Master, although it is dangerous to join the army, this time with the Patron King in charge, it is also an opportunity for you. If you can make meritorious contributions, you will have the opportunity to restore the former glory of the Gao family."
The man did not express his opinion, but slowly raised his eyes:
"I know, Gao Bo, don't worry, I know what's going on."
"Well, I will withdraw first." Gao Bo opened his mouth, said nothing more, and just retreated respectfully.
“Fast forward a few years, maybe it’s time to move.”
As the footsteps faded away, the man suddenly muttered to himself.
This person is none other than Gao Changsheng, the only son of Duke of Qi Gao Jiong!
He is also a time traveler.
He traveled to this world several years ago.
However, he was not like many of his predecessors who immediately started to do all sorts of things as soon as they traveled through time.
First of all, this is an incredibly large and vast world.
It is also a world with extraordinary powers.
The brilliant martial arts can reach heaven and earth.
According to his understanding, the warrior's strength has reached a high level.
It can really be described as flying into the sky, hiding in the ground, moving mountains and filling up the sea.
Such a vast world is naturally wonderful, but it is also accompanied by endless dangers.
When he first traveled through time, he was still a child. It was too dangerous to rush in recklessly without a certain level of strength.
There is another important point.
This is not an ordinary single martial arts world.
It’s a comprehensive world.
Qin, Han, Sui, Yuan, Song, Ming, and other countries existed at the same time.
The plot is huge, intertwined and influential, and it is extremely chaotic.
In this situation, if you blindly believe in the original plot and meddle with it at will, you will definitely not even know how you died.
The flapping of a butterfly's wings can cause a violent reaction somewhere.
Not to mention that with so many worlds influencing each other, how could there be no changes?
Just like the Sui Dynasty.
His cheap dad Gao Jiong.
In normal history, he would be demoted to the lowest position, have his account banned, and then be unjustly killed.
But in this world, although Gao Jiong died, his title of Duke was retained.
There is another point, based on his understanding over the years.
Yang Jian, Gao Jiong, and Yang Su, three people
A conflict suddenly broke out between the latter two.
Afterwards, both of them were dismissed from office one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them died suddenly.
No matter how Gao Changsheng looked at this story, he felt it was ambiguous.
Just within the Gao family, such a huge deviation could occur.
Not to mention zooming out to the entire world.
In this situation, how could Gao Changsheng dare to believe the so-called original plot?
