Chapter 36: Breaking with the King

But so what? That family, those people have long chosen to give up on her, can't she be selfish and use the little chips left to get out of her own way? She is not afraid of death, she is afraid of just not being able to live happily. As long as Gao Xianzhi was willing to nod, she was not afraid of the bloody rain that would come at any time. With him standing behind her, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, she dares to break through.

"Are you really, willing to put your parents and family in such a dangerous situation?" didn't know that Li Shouli's letter had completely chilled Tao Yao's heart, Gao Xianzhi almost couldn't believe that such heartless words would come out of the mouth of this pure girl: "Xiao'er, there is no turning back when you open the bow, I am afraid that you will regret it when the time comes." ”

"If I hadn't thought it through, I wouldn't be standing here today and telling you this." Exhaling softly, Tao Yao's smile became inexplicably gloomy: "Brother Huaijin, you know me, I won't make such a decision for no reason, so today I will only talk about us." Putting everything else aside, are you willing to marry me, our evil spirits, do you still count? ”

Yes, he's literally a hundred and eleven willing! As for the evil spirit, it was a promise he had sung to her with his soul, how could he not count them...... It's just, it's just......

"Silly girl, we can't leave anything else behind." As if wearing a mask with deep cracks, Gao Xianzhi's smiling expression was shattered little by little, and then slowly turned into powder: "Yongwang Mansion, the Gao family, countless clansmen, and the soldiers who followed...... Can we really talk about ourselves and ignore their existence? ”

"But they've thrown me out!" The grievances and depression that had been accumulated for too long completely exploded at this moment, and a layer of tears quickly rose in Tao Yao's eyes, almost hysterical: "Whether it is family or clansmen, they only think about their own safety, and they never care whether I take this step dead or alive." In that case, why should I bother with them?! Tell me, why?! ”

It's not that she doesn't miss or care! Parents and brothers, flesh and blood, they gave birth to her, took care of her, spoiled her in every way, loved her to the fullest, she also once regarded them as life, and did not think about them for a moment. Otherwise, she would not have thrown herself into the huge palace of Shendu without hesitation at such a young age, forcing herself to be well-behaved, sensible, smart and clever, and work hard to learn to observe words and feelings, and be wise and self-protective. Could it be that she was for her own glory, wealth, comfort and pleasure at that time? No, it's not! She was just thinking about the relatives of King Yong's Mansion, swallowing all the timid tears while smiling and smiling in the palace to survive! She was never selfish enough to be reckless of her loved ones!

In fact, she is afraid of the unfathomable Wu Cao, and she doesn't like to use her Princess Taiping. But in order to live well in the palace, in order not to cause trouble to her family, she gave up all her preferences from the beginning, left all her dignity and pride, willfulness and ease, and took root in the palace with the lowest but easiest to survive posture. For so many years, her only hope is to be reunited with her family, to stay with her Huaijin brother, and for the rest, she really doesn't want anything!

Now, however, she was ruthlessly deprived of even the humblest of wishes. The family in Chang'an wants to exchange her for stable wealth, and the sweetheart in Shendu wants to exchange her for the peace of the country and the people...... Hehe, no one wants her anymore, she's just a joke in this world now.

The tears burst in an instant, but Tao Yao just kept her eyes wide to prevent it from falling. You can't cry, even if you're thrown away, you can't cry!

"Young!" A few steps forward, Gao Xianzhi reached out to hold her shoulders in a panic, trying to calm her down. He had never seen such a gaffe Tao Yao, so sad and resolute, crying and crying, every tear of her seemed to fall on his heart, burning out marks one after another, making him feel painful, and it was difficult to recover: "Even if you don't want to take care of it, I have to take care of it!" Brothers in the army, the stability of the Tang Dynasty, this is the mission that my Gao family was born with, I can't turn a blind eye for my own selfishness no matter what, do you understand?! ”

The brothers in the army, the stability of the Tang Dynasty, and the mission of the children of the Gao family...... What does all this have to do with her? What did she do in her last life, so that she could not break free from these vain things in this life?

Tao Yao suddenly felt dizzy, as if the world was spinning, her eyes were dark, and she was almost about to fall to the ground, but she was grabbed by Gao Xianzhi's arm, which was able to avoid this heavy fall.

"Haha, it's so funny, it's just so funny, hahaha......" Tears could no longer flow out uncontrollably, Tao Yao waved her hand, broke free from Gao Xianzhi's grip, and stumbled to stand up with a creepy laugh: "Brother Huaijin, you finally said it." You don't want to, do you? ”

"If it's just for myself, I can't ask for it." Unable to look directly into Tao Yao's eyes anymore, Gao Xianzhi half-turned his head, and his tone was gloomy as if the words did not come out of his mouth: "But if you put it in the world, then all the meanings will be different." I'm ...... I really can't promise you......"

"Family, country, world...... A good family and country in the world......" The bigger the smile on his face, the more turbulent the tears in his eyes, at this moment, Tao Yao, as if he had divided himself into two completely different people, one was calm and rational, and the other was crazy and collapsed, but they both showed the same hopeless look at Gao Xianzhi, standing in the falling flowers in the sky and looking cold and cold, even the warm sun of spring could no longer give her a warm outline: "Okay, great...... Now that you have made up your mind in your heart, then I, Li Nunu, will never make any demands on you again, and I will never see you again in the future. ”

As she spoke, she took out a pure white silk handkerchief from her sleeve, and faintly saw the dots of peach blossoms and ink-colored handwriting embroidered on it, and as soon as she raised her hand, the handkerchief was swept into the wind, and it was blown away in an instant: "Gao Xianzhi, you are free." After speaking, she did not stop any longer, turned and walked towards the exit of the small garden, although her steps were slightly staggering, but she quickly disappeared into the rain of flowers, in a hurry, like an incredible dream.

"...... child" stretched out his hand in vain, but knew that he could no longer save that person. Gao Xianzhi looked at her departing back, and only felt that her heart was like a knife, and even the flying flowers in the sky seemed to have become her tears, and every fall made him hurt.

A burst of fishy sweetness welled up in his throat, and Gao Xianzhi was caught off guard, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he lost consciousness in an instant.
