Tao Xiao easily pushed her aside and walked downstairs quickly.

"Until the matter is clear, you can't take care of you." Tao Xiang said.

"No way!" Jingyi chased after him. Flustered and weak, she finally caught up with him and stopped in front of him.

"You put her down......" she wanted to come and grab it, but Tao Xiang reached out to stop her. He protected his daughter, and she didn't dare to step forward. "The child is still young, don't ...... Don't hurt her! Are you crazy? If you think I'm wrong, you can punish me as much as you want, don't take her away! Tao Xiang! ”

"Young Master!" Zhang's mother also caught up. She tried to stop Tao Xiang, "Young master, young grandmother still has to breastfeed the child...... This will not work! Master! ”

Tao Xiang didn't say a word, and walked downstairs quickly with his daughter in his arms.

Jingyi chased after him, accidentally fell to the ground, and before he could get up, he saw Tao Xiang go out of the door and locked the door. She shouted like crazy, Tao Xiang, you bastard, you give me back...... Zhang's mother helped Jingyi up. Jingyi kept banging on the door.

Through the door, she heard her daughter crying.

The sound really broke her heart.

She grabbed the handle of the door and heard Tao Xiang say, "Listen, if you still want to see Nannan, just do as I say - stay here in a proper manner!" ”

After Tao Xiang finished speaking, he hugged his daughter and turned around and left.

Behind him was Jing Yi's heart-rending shout, and he ignored it.

Zhang's mother followed Jingyi to the floor-to-ceiling window, pushed open the window and ran to the platform, only to see Tao Xiang striding through the courtyard.

Someone outside entered the courtyard gate and whispered something to Tao Xiang, and he stood down—from his suddenly straightened back and his immediate quickened pace, Zhang's mother knew that the news he had just heard must be extraordinary.

Jingyi tried to climb over the high stone fence, but Zhang's mother tried her best to stop Jingyi, and hurriedly called Yue'er for help.

Jingyi fell to the ground, and suddenly stopped.

"Young grandma...... Young grandma take care of herself...... The young master will send Nan Nan back soon......" Mother Zhang looked at her and really panicked.

Yue'er was so frightened that she cried, but she didn't dare to make a sound, she sobbed and choked.

Jing Yi stared at the big empty eyes, biting her lip and trying her best not to let herself cry.

Zhang's mother wanted to help her up, and she also remembered.

She couldn't just fall here. She had to find a way to get her daughter back...... She couldn't think of what to do for a while, and there was anyone who could help her at this time, but there was always a way.

But halfway through, her eyes suddenly went dark, and she fainted......

……

Tao Xiang came to Yanxi Hall, where his parents lived, and Mrs. Tao was pacing back and forth in the main room, and she seemed to be relieved to see him coming.

"How's my father?" Tao Xiang asked.

Mrs. Tao asked someone to send him a letter, telling him that Tao Shengchuan suddenly coughed up blood and fell into a coma.

"The doctor just went in." Mrs. Tao clasped hands. Seeing Tao Xiang coming, she felt more settled. But seeing that Tao Xiang's complexion was wrong, she frowned slightly and asked him what happened. Tao Xiao said that it was okay, comforted her a few words, and stood at the door of the room waiting. Mrs. Tao looked at Tao Xiang's face, which was even more depressed and grim than a few days ago. It doesn't feel like it's okay...... She sighed secretly. Then Tao Jun also arrived, and the brothers talked in a low voice. She sat farther away, unable to hear what they were saying.

As soon as the door opened, Shi Quan came out and said, "Madam, the eldest young master, the seventh young master, the doctor has come out." ”

Walking in the front was Dr. Wu, his face was better, and Dr. Zhao, who followed closely behind him, frowned.

Tao Xiang's heart sank and asked, "How is it?" ”

Wu and Zhao glanced at each other, and Doctor Zhao said, "It's a big deal for the old man this time. He saw Mrs. Tao and Brother Tao Jun stunned in unison, and paused for a moment before he began to explain Tao Shengchuan's condition in detail, telling them that Tao Shengchuan had recovered well after surgery, but there were signs of recurrence recently...... "Dr. Lübeck also said that there is a great possibility of Lao Shuai's illness recurring. Once it recurs, it is difficult to cure. ”

Mrs. Tao and Tao Jun and Tao Xiang were speechless for a long time.

She was still very calm, and said softly: "Please do your best to treat the master." ”

"Yes, ma'am, I'll do my best." Wu Zhao and the others hurriedly replied.

Tao Jun accompanied them to open a prescription, and Tao Xiang said to Mrs. Tao: "I will immediately send a telegram and ask people to find a way to pick up Dr. Lübeck." Mother, don't worry. ”

Mrs. Tao looked at him and said, "I know the master's condition...... I heard that the war is tight these days, and my lord will not let you be disturbed. so that you may not be distracted. ”

Tao Xiang had mixed feelings in his heart.

Mrs. Tao saw that he was silent and whispered, "Your eldest brother knows more." Ah Si and you are always outside, and the master told me to talk about it later. ”

Tao Xiang heard the sound of a wheelchair, it was Tao Jun coming. He showed Tao Xiang the doctor's prescription. Tao Xiang looked at it, and returned it to him as usual, without making a sound.

"Let's go in and see my father." Tao Jun took the recipe and said.

As soon as Tao Xiang nodded, Shi Quan came out and said, "Seven Shao, the old man invites Qi Shao in, I have something to tell you." ”

"Go ahead." Mrs. Tao said.

Tao Xiang saw that his mother forced her composure, and looked at her eldest brother before going in—Tao Jun seemed to be able to feel his gaze, and said, "Why don't you go quickly, let your father wait?" ”

As soon as Tao Xiang entered, Shi Quan closed the door behind him. Far away from the bed, I had already heard my father's heavy wheezing, even coughing, seeing him, calling "Old Seven", he hurried over.

Tao Shengchuan motioned for him to help himself up.

Tao Xiao carefully raised his back, let him lean on, and said in a low voice, "Father, rest." If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Tao Shengchuan looked at him and said, "I only have a few words, just finish it." ”

Tao Xiang nodded.

"When it comes to this battle, you should know it in your heart. Cheng Zhichen is trapped in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, you can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat. When you can advance or retreat, don't go too far with everything. The war in the northwest is too involved, and the situation in the northeast is precarious. You can't do it for your own selfishness and end up with the opposite. Tao Shengchuan said this in one breath and looked at Tao Xiang.

Tao Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, father, I understand." As long as Cheng Zhichen is willing to turn the muzzle of the gun and unanimously open the war, the war will be stopped immediately. ”

Tao Shengchuan pondered for a moment and said, "Be sure to fight quickly." ”

"Yes." Tao Xiang nodded. Seeing that his father's words seemed to have been finished, he gently reminded his father that it was not too early, "Rest early after taking medicine, father." I'll ask Dr. Lübeck to come as soon as possible. ”

Tao Shengchuan waved his hand and said, "No need." I know my sickness, as you know your soldiers. ”

Tao Xiang was silent.

"There is one more thing that I should not be a father to say. But looking at the current situation, I can't help but say. Tao Shengchuan coughed twice and took a handkerchief to cover his mouth. After a while, he spoke again, "I think you know what I'm going to say - the mole has been caught, and the matter must be investigated." No one can be connived up, and no one can be wronged. Especially in the matter of Jingyi, you don't go overboard. Even if she is confused and does something wrong, thinking that she is the mother of Nannan, you have to deal with it properly. ”

Tao Xiang nodded.

Tao Shengchuan looked at his son and said, "I understand that you are reluctant." ”

"If she really did, I wouldn't be reluctant. Otherwise, I am sorry for the dead brothers. Tao Xiang said.

"I thought that my father's understanding of Jingyi, she wouldn't." Tao Shengchuan said.

Tao Xiang was still silent. He didn't expect his father to talk to him about Jingyi. The doubts, anxieties, and anger that have been haunting my heart these days are still firmly pressed there.

In front of his eyes, there were still still eyes and a small face...... After a long pause, he whispered, "Yes, father." I would seriously consider it. ”

Tao Shengchuan nodded and said, "You go." ”

Tao Xiang sat with his father for a while before coming out.

Mrs. Tao and Tao Jun were anxiously waiting, seeing him busy asking about the situation inside. Tao Xiang said briefly, and Mrs. Tao hurriedly went in to see Tao Shengchuan.

"Old Seven, if you have something to do, just go. Here I am. Tao Jun said.

Tao Xiang said, "Then I'll go, big brother." As he spoke, he motioned for Fushun to push Tao Jun in, and he stood outside for a long time, listening to the low voice inside...... He saw Shi Quan guarding the door. Seeing that he was leaving, Shi Quan said that Qishao walked slowly. He nodded and said, "Lao Shuai's condition has changed, no matter what, let people notify me immediately." ”

"Okay, Seven Less." Shi Quan agreed.

Tao Xiang stepped out the door.

At the headquarters of the Northwest Army, Tao Xiang was in the office, looking through the file presented to him by Cen Gaoying.

Because of Ma Xingjian's affairs, in recent days, although the war has gone well, Tao Xiang's face is still extremely gloomy, and everyone around him is silent. Even Tao Si came to talk to him more carefully, so as not to say an inappropriate word, he approved the dragon scales.

"How's the guy?" Tao Xiang closed the file and asked.

Cen Gaoying pondered for a moment and said, "Still don't speak." But there is no denial of what is already in the dossier. Commander, is it a postponement of the trial? It seems that there is nothing to ask at this time. After working together for so many years, I know a little bit about his temperament......"

Tao Xiang slapped his palm on the file.

Cen Gaoying shut up.

Tao Xiang stood up, raised his feet and left.

Cen Gaoying didn't know where he was going, so he saw him go out and turn around. Li Dalong, who was standing at the door waiting, was stunned and hurriedly followed.

Tao Xiang walked all the way to the elevator at the end of the hallway.

Li Dalong and Cen Gaoying immediately understood where Tao Xiang was going. Here the elevator leads directly to the underground. The headquarters building has a large underground space, which is comparable to the above-ground part. At this time, Tao Xiang wanted to go to the basement, and he must have seen Ma Xingjian - Ma Xingjian was arrested here, and was not sent to the military prison, but was locked up here according to Tao Xiang's order...... The two of them followed Tao Xiang into the elevator.

Sure enough, Tao Xiang went in and told the soldier in charge of opening the elevator to go to the third floor underground. Ma Xingjian was locked up in a separate room there. Cen Gaoying breathed a sigh of relief and lifted a sigh of relief at the same time. He has worked with Ma Xingjian for the longest time. Although the exposure of Ma Xingjian's identity made him angry, hateful and unbelievable, Ma Xingjian's personality has always convinced him, and he always hopes that there will be room for a turn in this matter. But seeing Tao Xiang so angry, it is obvious that he cannot tolerate this kind of behavior. But he also knew that there was another reason why Commander Tao was extremely intolerant......

Tao Xiang got out of the elevator and turned east. Walking straight and turning, I finally saw the door of the room guarded by soldiers.

"Commander!" The soldiers guarding the gate saluted.

"Open the door." Tao Xiang said.

"Yes!" The soldier at the gate agreed, took the key and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Tao Xiang stepped into the room. Ma Xingjian, who was already standing in the middle of the house, stood upright. The door behind him was closed, and Tao Xiang looked at Ma Xingjian standing in front of him—two days of detention, much haggard, but still maintaining a neat military appearance—Tao Xiang paced two steps and stopped in front of Ma Xingjian.

Tao Xiang looked at him and said, "I heard that you have refused to speak for the past two days. ”

Ma Xingjian was silent.

"I want to know, you don't say a word. Now I come to ask you personally, and I hope you will answer me truthfully. ”

Ma Xingjian stood upright, still silent.

Tao Xiang asked, "How much did Cheng Jingyi participate?" ”

His eyes were cold, and his tone was light, but it seemed that a sharp blade was forced into human flesh.

"Seven Shao, my identity and activities, the young grandmother has never been clear. Moreover, the young grandmother has no access to secrets. Ma Xingjian said.

For the first time in a long time, his voice was a little strange. And under the suppression of Tao Xiang's sharp gaze and powerful momentum, he was inevitably a little frightened.

Tao Xiang said, "You have to keep her safe, I understand." She's my wife, and I'm not going to do anything to her. You just have to be honest with me about how much she's involved in. ”

Ma Xingjian fell silent. He responded to Tao Xiang's gaze and said, "Seven young people, young grandmothers really don't know. ”

Tao Xiang laughed.

He shook his body slightly, looking down at the tips of his boots.

"Cheng Zhichen used you to use the right person." Tao Xiao said, turning away. Pacing slowly. "How long have you been with me, ponies?

Ma Xingjian said in a low voice: "Seven Shao, Xingjian is guilty of Qi Shao." Seven young people want to kill or chop, and Xingjian has no complaints. Just ask for ......"

"No!" Tao Xiang waved his hand to stop him and said, "You are a soldier, and I am also a soldier." I'm not telling you about this now, but I want to know what kind of role Cheng Jingyi played in this matter. ”

Ma Xingjian fell silent, Tao Xiang waited for his answer.

"The young grandmother really doesn't know the inside story. It was I who accidentally exposed my identity. She recognized my identity, gave me a warning, and asked me to take the initiative to confess to Qishao. She said that if I didn't confess, then she would expose it to Qishao. Ma Xingjian said.

Tao Xiang asked, "When?" ”

"The day of the little lady's 100-day banquet, and the day of sending apricots. I was arrested after sending the apricots out, and you know what happened after that. Ma Xingjian said, his voice lowered. He observed the expression on Tao Xiang's face, "Seventh Shao, it is normal for young grandmothers to worry about Chief Cheng. I believe that Qishao will not be inconsiderate. For Xingjian, Chief Cheng and Qishao, and even the young grandmother, are all people that Xingjian respects very much. ”

Tao Xiang looked at him.

In his calm and deep gaze, Ma Xingjian insisted on finishing his words: "Qishao puts the future of the people of the country first and carries the burden. Xingjian has seen it in his eyes all these years, but he can't follow Qishao anymore because he has no face. If Xingjian has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he will definitely kill the enemy for the country, and he will live up to his years of cultivation. ”

"Pony," Tao Xiang walked over, facing Ma Xingjian. A dignified seven-foot man, who has followed him for a long time...... In just two days, it is no longer the high-spirited appearance when he was around. "I can't keep you."

"Yes, Seven Less. Please take care of yourself in the future. Ma Xingjian said.

Tao Xiang said: "You have been by my side for six years and three months. On the first day I came to report, the old man said to me that this posterior is very stable, you have to use it well, and you can become a great tool in the future. The old handsome man has known people all his life, and rarely walks his eyes. You count as one. ”

"Seven Young ......"

"I knew it was you. After several temptations, you passed the test safely. It's not just that you're cautious, it's that you don't have the heart to harm me. It is also Cheng Zhichen who will not use your trump card if it is not at a critical juncture. Pony," Tao Xiang looked at Ma Xingjian, "you have been born and died with me all these years, and you have made great achievements. I'll give you a proper disposition. ”

"Seven less, it's not a pity to die in Xingjian." Ma Xingjian choked.

Tao Xiang didn't speak again, turned around and walked out of the room.

Cen Gaoying and Li Dalong hurriedly followed.

Tao Xiang came out of the elevator and looked outside, it was not early. He did not go back to the office, but walked to the compound.

As he walked, he looked at the lights that lit up in the headquarters building.

There were neat military vehicles parked in the courtyard, and they were silent and did not move...... In such a large place, only one or two commands occasionally came, breaking the deathly silence.

Li Dalong followed behind Tao Xiang, keeping an appropriate distance.

Tao Xiang got off, opened the front door of a military vehicle, and got into the car.

Li Dalong hurriedly ran up and shouted, "Qishao, I'll come." ”

Tao Xiang waved his hand to let him back away. Li Dalong hurriedly stepped back, saw the car start, quickly swept in front of him, rushed out like lightning, crossed the headquarters compound, and went out...... He came back to his senses, stomped his feet, and hurriedly ran towards Tao Xiang's car.

While running, beckoning people to come.

After getting into the car, the driver asked him where he was going, and he immediately said that he would go back to the Qingyuqiao Mansion......

Tao Xiang's car was driving at a high speed, but he didn't go home immediately.

The car drove along the Yellow River as if it were about to chase the raging water of the river. It took him half an hour to drive onto the bridge. After crossing the river, the speed of the car slowed down and drove towards the Qingyuqiao Mansion.

Li Dalong had already led people to wait for him at the bridge, and when they saw his car passing by, they followed.

Tao Xiang didn't explain to them, and went directly through the gate through the east gate and went straight to Langyuan.

When he got out of the car, he was already sweating.

The gate of Langyuan is heavily guarded.

He entered the door, and from the courtyard gate to the building, he did not meet anyone along the way. He thought about it for a while, and then remembered that he was furious that night, except for Zhang Mayue'er, everyone else was ordered to withdraw by him. At this time, when she heard the sound, Zhang's mother came out and saw that it was him, and she was very surprised.

He stood in the living room for a moment.

There were only two people, him and Zhang's mother, and the living room seemed more and more empty.

"Young master, go up and see the young grandmother. In the past two days, the young grandmother has not eaten or drunk, and she is stunned when she thinks about her children. Zhang's mother said in a low voice. Look at his face, "Are you okay?" ”

Tao Xiang nodded.

The white lion ran down from the upper floor, and instead of running over to get close to him as usual, he was a little timid...... He looked at the white lion.

"Tao Xiang!" With a soft drink, Jingyi's figure appeared on the stairs. Her steps were light and fast, and she literally flew down. When she ran to the middle of the stairs, she looked behind Tao Xiang and him, and saw that he had come back alone, so she immediately stopped.

Tao Xiang turned his face and looked at Zhang's mother. She went down in silence.

"Where's the girl?" Jingyi asked loudly.

"At Grandma's." Tao Xiang said and walked up.

Jingyi followed him upstairs and asked, "When can I see her?" ”

Tao Xiang glanced back at her.

She was as white as a ghost. Looking at his eyes, angry, anxious, a little pitiful, but not timid. As if driven forward by anger, she followed his footsteps closely, not at all relaxed and asked him, "When are you going to send me back?" ”

Jing Yi's gaze followed Tao Xiang.

He went to the east, and she saw the east; And when he went to the west, she saw the west...... He sat down, and her gaze was fixed, staring at him without blinking.

After Tao Xiang sat down, he also looked at her.

"Isn't two days enough for you to find out?" Jing Yi's eyes lit up as if there was a fire, "Didn't you notice it a long time ago?" You have all the traces of him, and the people are also in your hands, what can't you ask? And me...... What has been done, I will never deny; But if I didn't do it, I can't afford to be famous...... Tao Xiang, you love your daughter on weekdays, is it all fake...... How can you bear to take her away from me? What is your heart made of? ”

The more Jingyi spoke, the more excited and sad she became.

She really wanted to pounce and tear Tao Xiang...... He's ruthless. is ruthless, there is always a way to make her suffer so much that life is worse than death.

Tao Xiao looked at Jing Yi's hand and trembled.

"You answer me! Answer me! She was almost hoarse. The calmer Tao Xiang appeared, the more unsure she was of what he was thinking. "Isn't it in your eyes that I'm wrong anyway...... You can figure out if I've done anything to be sorry for you...... I'm just ......"

"You just don't tell you about it." Tao Xiang lit a cigarette.
