Seeing Tao Yao again after a few days, Gao Xianzhi couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in.

She has lost a lot of weight, and she is also a lot haggard, and her little face, which has been raised with great difficulty since the beginning of winter, is now as pale as paper, just looking at it like this is enough to make people feel distressed.

"Huai Jin, you can accompany the little county lord more here, I still have something to go to meet Your Majesty." Gao Sheji thought he was an iron-clad man, but even the mountains of corpses on the battlefield failed to make him change his face. But now, seeing this little girl who he regarded as his own daughter hovering on the line of life and death, he couldn't stop feeling pity and hatred. I pity her for suffering so much at such a young age, and I hate that the person who did it was so cruel that he refused to let go of a little girl who could not hinder them at all. Of course, what annoys him the most is actually himself.

Obviously promised King Yong that he would protect his only daughter, Ming Ming Tao Yao believed in his uncle so wholeheartedly, and obviously saw that the county lord of Anle was plotting against him, but he still couldn't prevent this from happening. If Tao Yao really never wakes up, what face does he have to return to Chang'an, and what face does he have to say goodbye to His Royal Highness King Yong?

"Okay, I'll wait here, father, you go and get busy first." Mu Mu nodded, Gao Xianzhi stared at Tao Yao with good eyes, until the footsteps behind him slowly disappeared outside the door, he blinked, and two teardrops the size of beans fell.

It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, Gao Xianzhi has been rubbed and grown up in the barracks since he was a child, and he has never shed tears when he sweats and bleeds. However, for some reason, Tao Yao seems to be born with the softest place in his heart, and it hurts slightly even if he touches it. Such a situation in front of him may seem like a blessing in misfortune to others, but when it rests on him, it is a sharp pain in his heart like a knife. He couldn't imagine that the person he was holding in his hand would never be there, and he couldn't imagine that the laughter at the banquet that night would be the last conversation in their lives.

"Do you remember, we said we would go back to Chang'an together." Holding her slightly cold palm, Gao Xianzhi's voice was lowered very low, as if she was afraid of waking up the sleeping girl and making her miss the best dream in her life: "As soon as the New Year is over, spring will soon begin." You said that Chang'an in spring is the most beautiful, the peach blossoms in the city are blooming into a piece, like the sunset and like clouds, and when you ride a horse through the long street, you bring down countless petals, and they are rolled and floated in the wind, and you smell it, as if even the air is fragrant......"

Princess Taiping stood at the door and listened quietly for a long time, a pair of well-maintained slender hands clenched slightly, but quickly retracted into her sleeves. Turning around expressionlessly, she said lightly to Akihara, who was standing behind her, "Let's go." ”

"Yes." Akihara responded respectfully and immediately pulled his legs and followed. Although she didn't know what it was for, she could feel that Her Royal Highness was angry.

And in the inner room, Gao Xianzhi's soft whisper continued: "As soon as spring arrives, your birthday is coming, I promised to give you a gift, the most unexpected and unique kind." And your third brother, when he wrote last time, he said that it was ready for you, and it took him several days of hard work, just wait for you to return to Chang'an and you will be able to see it. You say, what ingenuity can you come up with with Chenghuan's brain? Let's laugh at him together when we get back......"

"Mr. Gao." Hongfu didn't know when she walked in, and her eyes were swollen like peaches: "The slave maid has brought medicine to the little county lord, you ......"

"I'll do it." The young man's body has not yet grown, but there is already a compelling momentum between his words, even if Hongfu is not at ease to let him do this work of serving people, but when she saw Gao Xianzhi's eyes, she still subconsciously handed over the medicine bowl in her hand.

Helping the girl who had almost no weight up and half-leaning in his arms, Gao Xianzhi picked up the medicine bowl and fed it carefully spoonful: "You don't like to drink medicine since you were a child, and every time you are infected with a cold, the princess and the old lady have to chase after you with the medicine, which is really heartbreaking." At this time, the second son will go to Fuxing Fang to buy his favorite candied fruit and hu cakes......"

"Gao Gongzi ......" looked at the warm scene in front of her, which seemed to be a common gossip, Hongfu's nose was sour for some reason, and her tears couldn't be stopped anymore.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, she just saw that it was too cold in the Guanfeng Hall, so she temporarily went back to get a thick cloak for the little county lord. Who would have thought that before she walked away with a pillar of incense, the little county lord had this incident. If she had been more cautious, I am afraid she would not have let the villain take advantage of it. She really failed the trust of the prince and the princess.

The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and Hongfu couldn't hold back and began to sob. In the past few days, she has been by Tao Yao's side day and night, but she is actually worried and frightened to the extreme. Now Gao Xianzhi's words have pulled her heart up, and her emotions have collapsed, and where can she restrain herself.

Who is it, who is it...... I'm crying...... What a familiar sound...

Medicine, why do you want her to drink medicine...... It's too bitter to drink ......

The long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and the bitter taste in her mouth made her even numb on the tip of her tongue, which made her frown involuntarily: "Sister Hongfu...... Don't, don't cry......"

In an instant, Hongfu, who was already a little silent, was like a duck stuck in the neck, not only stopped crying, but even held her breath unconsciously. She heard her right, right? That's ...... The little princess is calling her? Did she hear herself crying?

"Yao'er, are you awake?" was also stunned in disbelief, Gao Xianzhi pinched himself hard, and this was barely coming back to his senses. He hurriedly put down the medicine bowl, turned his head and became at a loss with excitement: "How are you, do you feel uncomfortable?" Hungry or not, painful or not? Forget it, I'm going to ask the Imperial Doctor to come over......"

"Slave go! The slave maid will go to the doctor immediately! Hongfu ran out as she spoke: "Son, you accompany the little county lord, and the slave will bring the imperial doctor back soon!" ”

"Brother Huaijin...... I'm fine. The consciousness has not fully recovered, but looking at the extremely poor complexion of the young man in front of him, as well as the faint tear stains in the corners of his eyes, Tao Yao can probably guess something: "I'm sorry for worrying you." ”

Fingers trembled lightly and stroked her somewhat messy sideburns, Gao Xianzhi suddenly held the lost treasure in his arms, and his eyes were full of joy and could bloom: "You don't need to talk to us about this, you're fine." ”

"Hmm." Obediently rubbed his hand lightly with his head, Tao Yao's voice was particularly soft because of his too weak body: "What you said, I heard it dimly......"

"So what?" Gao Xianzhi smiled, that was what he wanted to talk to her early on, but unfortunately, there was never an appropriate time. This time, it was a crooked hit.

"So, I'll get better quickly." Slowly closing her eyes, Tao Yao pulled the corners of her lips, revealing a pure smile: "Let's go back to Chang'an early." ”
