When Gao Yun entered the palace, Empress Dowager Feng asked straight to the point: "Gao Aiqing, I haven't seen you play anything in the court. However, you must know the current situation in the world, and you have amazing insights, so the palace called you into the palace. Ask."

Gao Yun said: "What worries the Empress Dowager is that the three kings want to mess up?"

Empress Dowager Feng nodded and said: "Of course! Although the three kings showed opposition, they never did. If the court controls it, it will lose its understanding and fear that the people of the world will be unstable! However, the three kings will definitely turn against each other, so I am very worried. , want to hear Gao Aiqing's opinion!"

Gao Yun pondered for a long time and said: "Back to the Empress Dowager, I secretly thought that if the three kings work together, we may not be able to win the three kings. Among the three kings, Tuoba Bo, the king of Leping, is the most outstanding. Powerful. The main forces of our Wei Dynasty are all in the hands of the general of chariots and riders, Duke Yihun of Dongjun. However, Yihun's soldiers are slightly inferior to that of King Leping. Now that the two armies are facing each other, even if Yihun wins more with less , it will also last for a long time.”

"If the civil strife persists for a long time without peace, our great Wei will be empty, and I fear that the country will not last long. Although I don't know the art of war, I am proficient in classics and history. It's ridiculous. Empress Dowager, do you know that Tian Ji is a poor horse?"

Empress Dowager Feng was taken aback when she heard the words, then she relaxed her brows and revealed a knowing smile.

Tian Ji, a general of Qi State, liked horse racing very much.Once, he agreed with King Qi Wei to have a match.They negotiated and divided their horses into three classes: top, middle and bottom.During the race, the top horse is against the top horse, the middle horse is against the middle horse, and the dismount is against the dismount.

Since King Qiwei's horses of each level were stronger than Tian Ji's horses, Tian Ji failed several times in the race.

Once, Tian Ji failed again and felt very disappointed. Before the game was over, he was about to leave the racetrack dejectedly.

At this time, someone suddenly called softly behind him.Tian Ji looked up, and there was a man in the crowd, who turned out to be his good friend Sun Bin.Sun Bin called Tian Ji over, cupped his hands and said, "I watched the horse race just now, King Qi Wei's horse is not much faster than yours. I don't know why General Tian gave up?"

Before Sun Bin finished speaking, Tian Ji glared at him: "Sun Bin, I have always regarded you as a good friend, and I never thought you would come to mock me!" One match, I have a way to make you beat him."

Tian Ji looked at Sun Bin suspiciously: "You mean to use another batch of horses to start the race again?"

Sun Bin shook his head and said, "General Tian, ​​you don't even need to replace a single horse. Just use the horses you just raced with. If you follow my plan, you will definitely win against King Wei of Qi!"

Tian Ji said without confidence: "Sun Bin, don't comfort me, if you do that, you still have to lose!"

Sun Bin said confidently: "General Tian, ​​you can follow my arrangement. I guarantee that you will win King Qi Wei."

Sun Bin listened to Tian Ji and whispered a few words in secret. Although Tian Ji was skeptical, he was very happy.King Wei of Qi had won many battles and was proudly showing off his horses when he saw Tian Ji walking towards him with Sun Bin, so he stood up and said sarcastically, "General Tian, ​​why are you still not convinced? Do you want to fight again with the widow?" Is there a match?"

Tian Ji replied: "My lord, of course I am not convinced. How about we have another match?" Then, with a 'crash', he poured a lot of money on the table as his gambling money.

When King Qi Wei saw it, he was secretly funny, so he ordered his subordinates to bring all the silver money he had won several times before, and added 1000 taels of gold, which were also placed on the table as a bet.

Qi Weiwang despite said that, "That starts!" Asound of gones, the competition started over.

According to Sun Bin's words, Tian Ji's lower-grade horses were aligned with King Wei's first-grade horses first.Of course, Tian Ji must have lost the first game.King Qi Wei stood up and said, "It is unexpected that the famous Mr. Sun Bin would come up with such a clumsy countermeasure."

Sun Bin ignored King Qi Wei and signaled Tian Ji to continue the game according to his strategy.

Then there was the second game. Sun Bin took the top-grade horse to the middle-grade horse of King Qiwei and won a round.King Qi Wei was a little flustered at this moment.

In the third game, Sun Bin won another round with his middle-class horse and King Qiwei's second-class horse.Now, King Qi Wei was dumbfounded.The result of the game was two out of three, and Tian Ji defeated King Qi Wei.It is still the same horses, but because of changing the order of appearance in the game, the result of turning defeat into victory is obtained.

Although Empress Dowager Feng is sad for women, her political foresight is extraordinary.She had long foreseen the inevitable result of the country falling into a long-term civil war. Empress Dowager Feng thought hard about how to quickly quell the civil strife in a short period of time. In conclusion, Gao Yun was summoned.

After hearing Gao Yun's words, Empress Dowager Feng had already made up her mind.After Gao Yun retired, Feng Taigong stayed up all night in the palace, and when he went to court the next day, he issued an order in the name of the emperor.

After the ministers paid their respects, Empress Dowager Feng said: "I heard that there is an urgent report from the border customs, and the northern Rouran raised troops to harass the border of our Great Wei Dynasty. What are the ministers' ideas?"

The officials were astonished and discussed in the court hall.No one has heard of Rouran's crime, not even the generals.But no one dared to question it. Everyone knew that Emperor Wencheng entrusted Gu to Gu, and Empress Dowager Feng was actually the lord of Wei.

A clever minister immediately came out of the class and knelt down and said: "Northern Rouran is really hateful. It has repeatedly violated our borders. Please make an order from the Empress Dowager to order the general's soldiers to be soft, so as to boost our Wei Guowei!"

Empress Dowager Feng said calmly: "Aiqing's words are very kind! I want to transfer the car and ride on the general, Dongjun Gong Yihun waved his north finger to fix Rouran, what do you think?"

Gao Yun was shocked. He didn't know what Empress Dowager Feng meant, so he played: "The empress dowager was called out, and Gao Yun thought this strategy was not advisable! General Yihun is the pillar of our dynasty, with heavy troops in his hand, to suppress the south. If Yihun is transferred, If Liu Song of the Southern Dynasties came to commit crimes, what should be done to restrain them?"

After Gao Yun finished speaking, other ministers echoed, "Master Gao is justified. Although Rou Ran is evil, he has repeatedly violated our territory and robbed property and people. This is the itching of scabies, and it is not enough to shake the foundation of our Great Wei. The South Liu Song, Fang is our great enemy of Wei. The ministers also thought that it is absolutely necessary not to move General Yihun's troops to march northward to Rouran, otherwise the south will be empty, and Liu Song may take advantage of the situation and enter."

Empress Dowager Feng smiled and said: "Don't worry about Gao Aiqing, I know the pros and cons. Therefore, I ordered General Yihun to march north, and ordered Pingyuan Wang Luli and Longxi Wang Yuanhe to join forces with General Cheqi and King Leping Tuoba. Just in case Liu Song of the Southern Dynasty!"

Gao Yun was shocked, and knelt down and said: "The Empress Dowager, I think this is absolutely impossible. If so, I am afraid that we will be enemies inside and outside the Wei Dynasty, and the country will be in danger!"

Empress Dowager Feng already had a good idea in her mind, so she pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Gao Aiqing, what's wrong with my palace's intention? Forgive your innocence, but let's talk about it one by one!"
