Chapter 34: An Appointment

"What else can I do, of course, I just stay in the house and wait for the results of the investigation of Dali Temple." He listened to his father sigh again, but for the first time in his life, he heard a deep sense of desolation from it: "Huai Jin, I know that you can't let go of the little county lord, but now that we are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, it is still difficult to protect ourselves, so why take her away?" ”

"Father!" Listening to the tone that was obviously about to give up Tao Yao, his heart seemed to be clenched tightly, and the pain made it difficult for him to even breathe: "Father! You told me that last time in Chang'an, but then I have been working hard, didn't I still usher in a new opportunity? Why can't it this time?! ”

No, he will never give up on his son! Absolutely not!

"This time and that time, not to mention that the little county lord probably won't have time to wait for you anymore, even Empress Wei and Princess Anle will not be able to give you the same opportunity again." The father half-closed his eyes, and his tone became even deeper: "Huaijin, you actually know that Tubo and his relatives will definitely settle down in these two days." And the mother and daughter who picked up the stumbling block for the General's Mansion at this time are undoubtedly giving us an ultimatum. Since Your Majesty can pamper them to such a point of lawlessness, then next time, even if they don't even have a suitable reason, they will put us to death, it will only be a sentence of effort. Where can we flee? ”

"I'm not afraid of death! I'd rather die than watch my son being sent to Tibet! What life is like there, father, you should know better than I do! "No matter how much Tubo gives honor and preferential treatment to Yao'er, it is definitely not as good as Datang. What's more, the difference between a homeland and a foreign land is not only heaven and earth? The child is alone, without the support of his father and brother, without the support of his family and the support of his family, and he went to a barbarian land thousands of miles away, where the yellow sand is full of sky, what will her life become, he couldn't help but shrink when he thought about it.

"Yes, I understand. But you're not afraid of death, have you ever thought about the Gao family's clansmen? His father spoke slowly in a calm tone he had never heard before, but the contents of it struck his heart like a hammer, and made his already painful heart even more tormented: "Have you ever thought about the sergeants who followed us? What will they do if we don't obey and make up our minds to resist? Huai Jin, I know that you like Xiao'er very much, and I also regard her as my own daughter, but as long as there is a little hope, I am not willing to let her suffer! But, Huai Jin, we can only stop here. ”

Those sergeants...... What will they do......

He could barely hear what his father was saying in the second half of his words, and he seemed to have lost his mind, and his mind was full of this question.

The General's Mansion is the spiritual pillar of those people, and he and his father, as the main generals, contain too much meaning in their words and deeds. If they insist on disobeying the holy will, then those people will definitely support and obey it with enthusiasm, so that even if they don't rebel, they will be opposed, and the great sin of rebellion will be punished by the nine tribes. Moreover, if he takes 10,000 steps back, even if he can really be ruthless enough to ignore everyone's life and death, what will be the consequences of causing civil strife in this situation surrounded by foreign enemies? The Turks and Tibetans will inevitably take advantage of the chaos to counterattack, and then a new round of war will be ignited, when the people will suffer, the lives will be ruined, and the splendid foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed, then he will become a sinner for the ages. This is contrary to his original intention of vowing to enlist in the army and defend his family and country.

"Huai Jin, let it go. Providence makes people, and many times, you can't disobey it. It can only be said that you and the little county lord are destined to have no part in this life. ”

So, do you really have to let go...... Really, that's the end of it? Gao Xianzhi's eyes looked in the direction where the imperial city was located, and in the depths of his obsidian eyes was endless despair and sorrow.

What should I do, what can I do......

"Childe, the princess of Zhenguo's mansion has come up to deliver a message." Outside the door, there was a gentle knocking sound very suddenly, it was the executive's family who would definitely come over on time to bring him food every day: "It was a female historian surnamed Lin who came to deliver the message in person, saying that there is something important in the princess's mansion, please be sure to come over when it is convenient for you in the near future." As for the relevant matters, they will arrange them properly, so that you don't have to worry about the future. ”

Zhenguo Princess's Mansion...... Gao Xianzhi's eyes were uncertain, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.

Fortunately, the executive's house was separated by the door, and Ben couldn't see it, but he listened to the lack of movement in the room and cautiously asked: "Childe, ...... you look?"

"I thought you wouldn't come." Princess Taiping took a leisurely sip of the fine cloud tea, looked at the man who was obviously a lot haggard in the opposite seat, and couldn't help but sigh: "I know that the situation in the General's Mansion is not good now, don't worry, no one will know that you are not in the mansion." "No matter how good Wei and Li Bao'er are, it is just a force that has only developed in the past few years. Her layout in the Shendu is not overnight, if you really want to fight her, those people are still a little tender.

"Then thank you, Your Highness the Princess." A black brocade robe made Gao Xianzhi's long body more and more heroic and upright, Rao is he has been sleepless for the past few days, describing him as embarrassed, and only revealing a little bit of Luotuo's atmosphere, not only did not show the meaning of decadence, but rather a little bit of the unruliness of the children of Wei and Jin. I have to say that the Gao family's skin is really good, and it is no wonder that Princess Anle has not been able to let go of Gao She's chicken so far.

"Your Highness, I want to see her, I don't know...... It doesn't fit. Due to the confinement, he has been cut off from Tao Yao for several days. I don't know how she's doing, and I don't know how desperate she will feel after hearing such rumors, Gao Xianzhi feels extremely difficult just thinking about it. Now that he had ventured to the Zhenguo Princess's Mansion, it was a must-do to meet her to make sure. He couldn't wait to see that person, even if it was just to hear her voice.

"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have chosen to contact you at this time, so what's inappropriate." Princess Taiping raised her hand and motioned for Qiu Yuan to take people to the back hall, but she sat in the flower hall and did not move: "Go, make everything clear, just don't leave regrets for each other." "She's from here, and she knows what to say better than these young people.

If she and Xue Shao could have been more honest back then, maybe the final outcome would not have been so tragic. It's a pity that the people and time that have passed away are like a river that never goes back and forth, and after all, it will be over, and no matter how much you regret it, you can't get it back.
