Chapter XXIII Position
"I don't selfishly want to tie you up, and I don't intend to disregard your wishes, I'm just worried about ......" A crack appeared in Gao Xianzhi's always calm and indifferent face, so that it was extremely rare to reveal an aura of uneasiness and fear: "Xiao'er, don't misunderstand, don't push me away, if you don't believe it, I can swear to God......"
"Brother Huaijin," even through the thick clothes, he felt the strength of his fingertips trembling faintly, Tao Yao sighed, and hugged his thin waist with his backhand. Letting her face be buried in his heart, the girl's voice was much softer than before: "Don't swear, I said that the evil song is only for you." If I don't even believe you, who else can I believe? From the beginning, she understood what he meant, but that didn't mean she would do it obediently.
"Xiao'er ......" stiffened suddenly, and Gao Xianzhi only felt that the unique refreshing fragrance of the girl in his arms was coming to his face, which made him completely stunned for a while: "You...... Really, aren't you mad at me for it? ”
"Well, no." Listening to the man's extraordinarily powerful but clearly disordered heartbeat, Tao Yao turned his head sideways and covered his apologetic wry smile: "I won't seek skin with the tiger again in the future." ”
Because she should do it and can do it, she has arranged it almost.
"I will stay in the Lanyue Hall with peace of mind, waiting for your good news."
Next, she just needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight to see who can have the last laugh.
After separating from Gao Xianzhi, Tao Yao still went to the side hall to see Princess Taiping. Now that it is not as good as before, the harem has become the world of Webster and Princess Anle, and it is not easy for them to meet in the palace without being seen and heard, and the opportunity to seize naturally cannot be missed.
"It's pretty fast, I thought you'd have to stay for a while before you come out." Except for the slightly reddened corners of her eyes, there was almost no sadness on Princess Taiping's face, and this graceful and gorgeous woman like a peony was as calm and atmospheric as ever, as if the person who had just passed away had nothing to do with her: "Don't worry, I have arranged for someone to keep an eye on it around here to ensure that there will not be a trace of news leaked out." ”
"Her Royal Highness the princess has always been thoughtful." Pulling the corners of her mouth slightly, Tao Yao only cared about her purpose for coming to find herself: "You are in a hurry to meet me, but has something changed?" She just gave an idea of action and some more critical information, as for how Princess Taiping planned and arranged, she never asked. Right now, she really doesn't understand it.
"It's not that anything has changed, it's just that you and I are already in the same boat, and some things will always be known to you." Princess Taiping motioned for her to sit down, her words were full of indifference, and it didn't look like her plan had been frustrated: "I won't despise you because you are young, I also appreciate the help you gave me, and I will definitely give back in the future." "She's not stupid, what Tao Yao said in the Zhenguo Princess Mansion that day was not empty words, and she also understood what this little girl wanted. It's not a hard thing for her, so it's okay to make a promise.
Sure enough, dealing with smart people is a lot easier. Tao Yao lowered her eyes and responded in a gentle tone: "Then thank you, Your Royal Highness the Princess." "Although Princess Taiping is a woman, she has always done a good job in terms of her words. Looking at the capital, I'm afraid I can't find a person whose words can carry more weight than her, and with this sentence as a guarantee, it can indeed make people feel a lot more at ease.
Nodding her snow-white chin, Princess Taiping picked up the tea cup beside her, her eyes a little fluttering: "I sent someone to verify the news you came out that day, and it is true." Shangguan Wan'er and Wu Sansi have been in contact with each other in private, and it is not a day's work, but it is too good to cover it up, if you hadn't mentioned it, I am afraid that I would have ignored the past directly. ”
"Your Highness has a lot of miscellaneous matters, and it's normal that you don't pay attention to it for a while, I'm just a guess with nothing to do, and I just stumbled into it by mistake." Tao Yao pondered: "It's what you said, if Wu Sansi and Empress Wei also ......."
"Hmph, this old puppet is too good at jumping a little!" A pair of phoenix eyes narrowed up, and a thick killing intent poured out from the narrow slits of the eyes, and Princess Taiping's tone was extremely unkind: "The cronies around my mother and my brother's favorite pillow person...... He is really a non-stopper, thinking about catching them all! ”
Tao Yao blinked, but she didn't continue on the topic. She looked up at the person in the audience and mentioned another thing: "I wonder how the matter of Lichu is going?" I think His Majesty seems to be a little undecided, and he hasn't decided on it yet. ”
"That's just rumors from the outside world." Princess Taiping waved her hand, with a disapproving expression: "There are not many heirs surnamed Li, and even fewer sons of my brother. ”
Li Xian has many daughters, but only four sons. The eldest son, Li Chongrun, was killed by Wu Cao in his early years for discussing the regency of the Zhang brothers, so he didn't mention it. And the second son, Li Chongfu, was framed by Wei not long ago and relegated to Puzhou to make a history of assassination. So what's next......
"Wei Wang Li Chongjun?" Tao Yao frowned: "But he is not from Empress Wei, if he repeats the mistakes of his second brother, wouldn't it be bad?" "Wei's is by no means a good stubble who stands by and watches, otherwise Li Chongfu would not have been sooner or later, but he was demoted from Beijing at this time, it is clear that the woman is the first to strike and exclude dissidents. I just don't know if she wants to take the position herself or let Li Bao'er come out.
"Li Chongjun is much smarter than his second brother, and the lessons of the past are still there, so he didn't fall so easily." Princess Taiping smiled confidently: "Besides, no matter how much Your Majesty pampers Wei, with my mother's example in front, he will not agree to have another female emperor." He has always loved this third son a little, and he will not put him in danger in the future, from this point of view, the position of Prince Li Chongjun cannot escape. It's just," she paused, as if she was a little confused: "I don't understand what role Shangguan Wan'er plays in it, that girl is notorious, and she has a lot of means, if she inserts a bar, it will be troublesome." ”
"Your Highness is worried about Shangguan Zhaorong's position?" Tao Yao pondered these chaotic relationships, and her mind was still clear: "In my opinion, she is just an ordinary woman who has been affected by her fame and status, otherwise, with the trust and authority she has now obtained, why does she need to think twice?" ”
