Chapter 396: Mother
Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
After the eldest princess returned to the mansion, the door of the mansion was closed, and there was no movement.
Only in the afternoon, the vehicle purchased in Fuchu went out and went to Suzaku Street. When they went, there were a few people, and when they came back, there were still a few people, and on the way, the slaves and maids who had been purchased were separated, and each went to buy what he wanted in the house. Because there were not enough people sent to monitor, they followed a few closely, and saw that these people were all in order, and they were not out of line with what they should buy, and the people who followed them were also relieved.
When Chen Zhao heard these words, he always felt that there was something wrong, and there was no definite evidence, so he could only make people pay more attention to the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
After dark, Chen Zhao's carriage stopped at the back door of the princess's mansion.
In the night, the carriage was very inconspicuous, neither rich nor luxurious, and after three long and short doors, two people came out of the room, both covered with black robes, and quietly entered the carriage.
Chen Zhao saw that the eldest princess was tightly covered, so he also paid attention to her expression.
She was still dismissive of herself, and her eyes only looked eagerly at the road outside, not at herself. Everything was the same as before, Chen Zhao couldn't help but think, could it be that he really thought too much?
The carriage stopped at the back gate of Dali Temple.
There was already someone waiting at the door, and after the carriage stopped, the man reached out to help Chen Zhao down. Chen Zhao came back to his senses and helped the eldest princess, but the eldest princess ignored him and got out of the car. Chen Zhao followed her depressedly, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. What did he care about with the woman?
He led the way and led people into Dali Temple, but he did not enter the prison, but he made a mistake after entering Dali Temple, and went to the office of Dali Temple. When I moved a book in the office room, I heard a click under my feet, revealing a hidden dungeon. In order to prevent Pei Xie Tang from coming to rob the prison, he still put a lot of thought into it.
Xu is cowardly in her hometown, and the eldest princess feels a little trembling at this time, and she can't lift her strength.
Mama Zhang knew what she was thinking, and stepped forward to help her: "Miss, let's go quickly, the son is still waiting." ”
The eldest princess nodded and took the lead in going down the dungeon.
The light in the dungeon is not dim, the torches are lit, and everything is clearly visible. This is not a real dungeon, in fact, it is a dark room used to hold people, and there are locks and iron cables, but those who can be held here are also confidential criminals, so they are afraid that these people will die, and a couch is also set up. Afraid that the eldest princess would be uncomfortable when she saw it, Gao Xingzhi still let people take the lead in cleaning up, he was caught with a lot of injuries on his body, and after bandaging, many wounds were still stained with blood. Especially his left hand, which hung down at his side, was covered in blood because of the lack of a little finger.
He lay there with his eyes closed, his face pale, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
Hearing the movement, his eyelashes trembled slightly, so that people knew that he was alive.
"Stop."
In this situation, the eldest princess's heart was very painful, and she could bear it, so she rushed over and hugged him and cried.
Mama Zhang couldn't bear it either, tears rolled down, ran to Gao Xingzhi's side, carefully held his arm, and called: "Childe, childe, how did you become like this?" ”
She is the eldest princess's personal girl, accompanying the eldest princess and her relatives, and also accompanying the eldest princess to the marriage. In the years in Qinling, she also watched Gao Xingzhi grow up. When Gao Xingzhi was a child, he couldn't go down to the ground for more than a year because the eldest princess gave birth to him and injured his body. This child is well-behaved when he is young, and when people tease him, he will laugh, which is particularly painful. When she was forced to return to Beijing, the eldest princess was reluctant, so why was she reluctant?
At this time, seeing Gao Xingzhi's miserable appearance, Mama Zhang was angry, jumped up and went to beat Chen Zhao: "You villain, I will fight with you!" ”
It's just that she is old, and as soon as she raised her hand, she was grabbed by the jailer next to her.
The jailer scolded: "Presumptuous! This is Taibao! ”
As she spoke, she pushed her with her hand, Mama Zhang stumbled and almost fell on Gao Xingzhi, she hurriedly stabilized her figure, but she still flashed her waist and couldn't move for a long time. Holding his waist and inhaling, only a pair of eyes were still staring at Chen Zhao resentfully.
Chen Zhao was stung by her gaze, folded his hands and drank the jailer away, and without speaking, he stood aside and watched.
With such a big movement, the eldest princess shouted again and again, Gao Xingzhi's eyelids trembled again, and finally opened her eyes with great effort. His eyes were silent, and his eyes stayed on the eldest princess for a moment before he had a focal length. His lips were chapped, and he opened and closed for a long time, and a few words came out of his throat vaguely: "Mother, mother, mother......"
This title made the eldest princess stunned.
Gao Xingzhi hadn't called her that in years.
That year, she abandoned him and returned to the capital, and before leaving, at the gate of Qinling Mountain, Gao Xingzhi was held by his father, and he held down his determination to rush over. The valley is full of children's heart-rending cries: "I want my mother, I want my mother, don't go, mother, don't leave it, don't leave it, don't leave it......"
She cried several times until she fainted.
But if she doesn't leave, it will bring disaster to Qinling, the ultimatum of the official government is in the hands of the head of the family, at that time, Gao Xingzhi and their branch are only the third room of the Gao family, and they can't overpower the big house, and they can't be the head of the Gao family. She is a young lady from a big family, and she is also clear about these ditches. She knew very well that even if she didn't leave, the Gao family would send her out sooner or later in order to curry favor with the government and protect herself. At that time, Gao Xingzhi's father and son had to be forced to die by the family in order to protect her.
If she leaves, or their father and son die, she naturally understands the severity.
She loved them, and she couldn't bear to embarrass them.
So that day in her own room, she sat on her knees with Gao Xingzhi's father, Gao Mian, and she still remembers what she said that night: "Brother Mian, I know that you are good to me, but you are reluctant to give up on me." But Qing Lian is not an ungrateful person, and when you bought me and my girl from Ya Po, I made up my mind to repay you. I won't embarrass you, when I go back, you're still young, and you're still young, you can marry someone else. I know you're reluctant, but that's okay. Our husband and wife fate in this life is short, and I am so tired that you have been beaked by the family for me, so far I have not married a wife, and only raised me a noble concubine in the house. I'm grateful. If there is an afterlife, I am willing to be a woman from a white family, wearing clean clothes, and going to the Bodhi tree to wait for you to marry me. Brother Mian, I make a covenant with you in the next life, and you remember that in the next life, when you pass under the Bodhi tree, the person who has a small mole under his ear is me. ”
As she spoke, she picked up the hairpin and stabbed it hard under her earlobe.
Beads of blood poured out, and Gao Mian burst into tears.
He was still reluctant to give up on her, but he knew that he couldn't keep her anymore.
It's just that he still doesn't know how to talk to his son.
He bid her farewell in silence, and at the gate of the mountain that day, his figure remained motionless, remaining in her heart for decades. It's just that she didn't expect that in her lifetime, she would be able to see her son again.
In the seventeenth year of Xuanqing, the Gao family was shocked.
After she left, Gao Mian knew that she couldn't protect her wife and children, and she became more and more thoughtful. He precipitated for ten years, and in the sixteenth year of Xuanqing, he seized the power of the Gao family and sat on the top of the Gao family. I don't know what he thinks, but in the seventeenth year, he expelled his son from Qinling, gave him some silver, and took his son out to wander.
Gao Xingzhi missed his mother in his heart, and learned from his father that his mother's hometown was in the capital, so he found the capital.
Not long after he entered Beijing, Chen Zhao knew.
Because the token in Gao Xingzhi's hand was the eldest princess's portable jade pendant, the jade pendant, Chen Zhao had also worn it for a while, he looked at the things sent to the pawnshop by the thief, and was silent for a long time.
Then, he secretly helped and sent Gao Xingzhi to him.
When Gao Xingzhi saw his mother in the eldest princess's mansion, he couldn't accept it, and took several steps back.
Gao Xingzhi said: "I don't believe it, I don't believe ......"
He didn't believe that his mother was the eldest princess of the dynasty.
He didn't believe that his mother had abandoned him even though she was in a high position.
She couldn't explain it.
His existence is to announce to the world that the Changgong Dynasty has fallen among the people and has been defiled by others, and the royal family naturally cannot admit it. This is also the reason why Emperor Xuanqing only brought back the eldest princess, but did not let Gao Mian and Gao Xingzhi return to Beijing together.
He cried and asked her if she had abandoned him and her father because they were a stain on her, and she cried and shook her head. Gao Xingzhi finally understood why his father drove him out of Qinling and asked him to come to the capital to find relatives. Not only to find a support for him, but more importantly, his father missed his mother too much, but his father knew that his mother would never come back to them. If Gao Xingzhi was not the Gao family, maybe Emperor Xuanqing could still remember the love of the eldest princess and reunite their mother and son.
As for the father...... I can only look at them from afar in this life!
Father's heart is bitter!
Gao Xingzhi couldn't bring his mother back in the end!
Since that day, he ran out of the eldest princess's mansion in embarrassment, and never called her mother again. He would go to see her from time to time, but every time he visited, he always shouted distantly: "Eldest princess", or, just "You." ”
She has wanted to hear this sentence for many years......
The eldest princess was sad in her heart, and her hatred for Chen Zhao was a little deeper, she held Gao Xingzhi in her arms, and tears fell in his hair: "Zhi'er, my mother is here, my mother is here." ”
Gao Xingzhi looked slightly stunned.
He hadn't been awake until now, and he thought he was dreaming. In his dream, he saw the eldest princess, who was disabled and fragile, so he subconsciously shouted that sentence.
Suddenly, someone answered, and the body fell into the warm embrace, only to know that it was not a dream.
The eldest princess is really here.
There was a warm liquid rolling down Gao Xingzhi's hair, and he didn't have to look back to know that it was the tears of the eldest princess.
There were countless emotions surging in his heart, and he struggled to stand up, wanting to raise his hand to wipe away the tears of the eldest princess, his voice was very hoarse, and his voice was very low: "Don't cry, son...... It's okay. ”
