Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Emperor's Heart
Li Wanfeng's affair is a mixed blessing for the Li family, the joy is for those who covet the position of the head of the Li family, and the worry is for the Li family's troubles and not one-sided servants. And Li Wanfeng really has nothing to do now except smash the saucer and smash the vase.
At this time, the peach was quiet and rainy, the red felt curtain was hung high, and the daylight hit her face before she opened her sleepy eyes. He glanced at the visible marks on his body and pursed his lips. He moved his sore arm and rolled over lazily.
I don't know if it's the punishment of dissatisfaction or the joy of the naked pair, or both, Qing Yezhuo has lost those gentlemanly spirits after the whole thing, and has turned into a jackal beast, which seems to be full of fanaticism, but she is the one who attracts the mold. said that it was transferred without the power to resist, but in fact it was the fascination of the heart, Tao Xiaoyao couldn't help but think about it, and there were bursts of heat in his ears.
"Xiao'er-" Qing Yezhuo's eyes were tender, and the soft words in her ear were warm, as if she was inseparable from Qing.
"I was wrong, can't I?" Tao surrendered, moving back little by little until there was no way back to the wall. She didn't mean to hide it, it's not that people want to grow up, she has to protect herself.
"I'm sorry." Qing Yezhuo said this sentence that he wanted to say a long time ago, and he said it at this moment.
Tao Yao was stunned for a while, such a high-ranking and cold person would say such a thing one day. She didn't have a trace of joy, but she was a little distressed, how could she have this.
"If I don't have myself, if I cut the grass and eradicate the roots, Xiao'er will not lose Jasper, lose our ......" Qing Yezhuo's eyes were already full of guilt, which was the pain of his life.
Tao Yao listened quietly to him slowly, and only stopped his lips with his fingers when he said this: "Let it pass, even if it is not you, what should happen will still happen." ”
Tao Yaoyao shook her head, she hated, forgotten, and escaped. However, she couldn't. She still has people around her who she needs to protect, and she can't throw in the towel very quickly. Besides, even if it weren't for the Nightburn, that child wouldn't have survived.
"Child...... I ......" Qing Yezhuo looked at Tao Yaoyao's sparkling eyes, what kind of woman would have such a heart and vision, and what kind of woman would have such a width.
In this world, there is only one person in front of him.
Qing Yezhuo looked at Tao Yaoyao's soft and delicate beauty, and couldn't help but touch her face, and Tao Yao was ashamed.
"Xiao'er, I miss you so much-" Qing Yezhuo said softly, I don't know if it was because his voice was getting weaker, or if Tao Yaoyao was fascinated for a while, and he didn't hear it clearly, but he missed the last word, and his face instantly turned red.
Qing Yezhuo saw the other party's appearance again, half of them were all in the house, and they really had a bit of a meaning of holding the pipa and half covering their faces, so they suddenly rushed to their brains, and tossed with affection and longing for a night. It wasn't until the sky was slightly brighter that the peach who was half-begging for mercy fell asleep with his head covered.
"Mother, mother?" Tao Yaowu was stunned spontaneously, and Biyun inevitably shouted on the side.
"Huh?" Tao Yao came back to her senses, she had already put on her underwear, and Biyun was waiting for her with water.
"Mother, are you going out today?" Biyun had already practiced a good skill of automatic shielding, and helped Tao Yaoyao choose a gown, so he asked if he was dressed properly.
"Nature." Tao Xiaoyao nodded, this is a good show that has been prepared so hard, and I haven't gone to visit the teammate who died in battle.
"The mother looks so good in this dress!" Biyun straightened his gown and praised.
"Huh?" Tao Yaoyao glanced in the mirror, don't you remember that she has ever made such clothes?
"Niangniang, when you are not in the palace, the emperor will ask people to make some clothes with the best satin every once in a while and put them in Taoyuan Residence. Not only that, but the usual use has never been broken, and some palace people have the intention to come here to touch it, but they are all found out by the people sent by the emperor, and they don't know how to deal with it, but they don't see each other again. Therefore, although there are few people in this paradise residence, it is quiet. Biyun was talking to Tao Yaoyao in front, and somehow it was a little like talking to himself.
"Hmm." Tao Yaoyao's mouth responded, but her heart was moved.
On his body, he wore a short coat with a narrow cinnamon coat, a pleated ankle-length emerald skirt, and a beaded hairpin on his head. On the night of the peach's death, Chunmu looks like a peach and an apricot, the swallow is jealous and ashamed, bright and fresh, and self-inflicted, which makes people can't move their eyes.
And the place where Tao Yao went was Li Wanfeng's residence, and the guard at the door had a cold face, and it said that no one should enter, but he was only allowed to go after seeing Tao Yao.
Tao Yaoyao entered the door very smoothly, and the winding path of the three-spring grass wisp corridor in this courtyard now seems a little indifferent and lifeless, and after these dead things, it is a door that is firmly guarded, presumably it is Li Wanfeng inside.
"Niangniang, the noble man treats you like this, are you still coming?" Biyun was a little puzzled when he saw where the peach came.
"There are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends." Tao Yaoyao only replied with one sentence.
"But Biyun ......" Biyun said casually after listening to it, thinking that she was not an eternal friend.
"You—my relative." Tao Yao turned her head suddenly, stared at Biyun's eyes, and answered carefully, but she didn't let her finish her words.
Biyun was stunned for a long time before hurriedly chasing his footsteps.
"What are you going to do!" It was an imposing sentence, which made the current Li Wanfeng look depressed when she said it.
"In the early years, when I heard that Wan Guiren was in a bad mood, I liked to toss these dead things. Tsk, this is a good Hui kiln worth a thousand gold! Tao Yaoyao saw Li Wanfeng sitting alone on the eight-treasure chair facing her, shouting at her but looking powerless.
"You're here to see the joke?" Li Wanfeng looked at Tao Xiaoxiao, and there was a lot less arrogance in her eyes.
"I mean, if I were you, I'd polish these things and at least sell them for a good price." Tao Yaoyao seriously admired the fragments on the ground, and this eldest lady likes to throw money to play when she has nothing to do?
"Hmph." Li Wanfeng tilted her head.
"I'm afraid that's what you look like." Tao Yaoyao looked at her for a long time, found a seat that was still upright, and sat down.
"Why are you here today?" Li Wanfeng pursed her lips, did not admit it, did not refuse.
"I'm here today, definitely not for you, don't worry, I'm not a good person of the tenth world, I'm for myself." Tao Yaoyao said lightly.
"Who the hell are you?" Li Wanfeng only asked this sentence for a long time.
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I can save your Li family from disappearing, and I can also let your father return safely." Tao Xiaoyao replied with a smile.
"What can be trusted? Didn't you say that my father was in misfortune......" Li Wanfeng sneered, would she not know the situation of the Li family now? She just wanted to hide her ears and steal the bell, and deceive herself.
"I have never deceived you, but you have repeatedly led me into injustice. Your father should have died, but someone saved him and prevented him from coming to life. Tao Xiaoyao said nonchalantly.
"What? You mean...... My father...... It's true...... Alive? Li Wanfeng asked cautiously, and couldn't help but stand up straight, looking at Tao Yaoyao for fear that Tao Yaoyao was lying to her.
No matter how much Li Wanfeng tried, she couldn't find out her father's whereabouts, a few doors in the side room were eyeing her, the Li family seemed to be scattered, and she couldn't rely on it at all, except for her father's old subordinates who could be trusted, there was no one to be trusted.
"Otherwise, why do you think you're still sitting here?" If it weren't for the fact that his father didn't see anyone alive or dead, would those people still be able to let such an eldest lady show off her power in the Li family?
"You lied to me! Then why hasn't my father ever sent me a letter, not even a single message?! Li Wanfeng's eyes suddenly turned red, but her gaze staring at Tao Xiaoyao did not deviate at all.
"Because of you!" Tao Yaoyao also stood up, and faced her with some hatred for iron and steel.
"For me?" Li Wanfeng couldn't help but point at herself, a little incredulous.
"Self-sufficient. If your father does not obey, then death awaits him. But what do you do? Without the identity of the eldest lady of the Li family, without gold and silver, you are nothing. Don't say that there is no taboo in this palace, even if you die tragically, no one will collect your body! Do you really count on the Li family's sidelines? Their mouths say that you are good, but in their hearts they wish that you would disappear sooner. Why don't you really expect a man who doesn't love you to stand up for you and give up such a big piece of fat as the Li family? Wake up! You're nothing, and without that title, you're going to die! Tao Yaoyao said these words coldly, hitting the nail on the head, leaving no room for anything.
Li Wanfeng just stood so stupidly, no one had ever told her this, and no one dared to talk to her like this, she grew up under her father's wing since she was a child, and the first time she saw that man, she was appointed to marry this man, and she never thought about her father's situation. And now, her father is in danger, but she finds herself useless, and even a good home is being torn apart in an instant, and even swallowing her.
Those days and nights of pain, but she had to taste it alone, she didn't know what was waiting for her? But she can't do anything, and now she has nothing.
"What, so you admit defeat?" Tao Yaoyao said sarcastically.
Li Wan's eyes turned to her blankly.
"Are you willing to be Jiang Shaoqing's knife, willing to carry the black pot for her, but are you unwilling to save your father and save yourself?" Tao Xiaoyao continued to stimulate.
"What do you mean?" Li Wanfeng licked her dry lips, and there seemed to be no blood yet.
"Isn't it that you are so naïve that you think Jiang Shaoqing is helping you? What obligation does the Jiang family have to help you, the only thing they hope for is for the Li family to be torn apart and then let them eat it up. Tao Xiaoxiao said, this way is so shallow, but it's a pity that Li Wanfeng is blind, blinded by her own jealousy.
"I'm gone, how can I save it?" She doesn't care anymore, she just wants to know her father now, how can she be safe?
"So what do you have?" Tao asked again.
yes, what did she have? He had nothing but what her father gave her.
"You still have these things that you have smashed to pieces, the so-called money can make ghosts grind, you have your father's loyal subordinates, and you have the title of this nobleman. If you continue to be in vain, there is really nothing! Tao Yaoyao came closer, she didn't sympathize with Li Wanfeng, everyone has their own fate, this is her own choice.
However, for her own sake, she can be given a chance to choose again.
"What should I do?" Li Wanfeng was not a stupid person, but she just lost her mind in this huge cage.
"You should think about who your enemies are, and only by defeating them can you be your own master. Without your father, you will be the master of the Li family. Tao Xiaoyao said, as if he had prepared a rhetoric that had been prepared for a long time.
"I guess you have something to do. Say it, listen up. Li Wanfeng sorted out her thoughts, laughed quietly twice, and then sat down again.
Tao Yaoyao looked at her sitting like this, it seemed to have changed, where has it changed? It doesn't seem to be the original Li Wanfeng with eyes on the top of her head and her heart full of confusion, this is her. That treacherous, cunning, self-serving businessman?
"Now all the business paths in your house are in the hands of Li Mingtao, so others will want to take this opportunity to swallow you with a small and big way. I want the Li family to go to Ximo, you will have Linglong Pavilion in Beigao and Nansu twenty new shops, as long as you are Li Mingtao's daughter, you will naturally be able to turn the tide. Tao Yaoyao said with a smile, she knew that Li Wanfeng would never refuse.
With a stick of incense, the two of them sat quietly like this, Biyun stayed outside the door, and no one could hear these words except for the two of them.
"Good! I answered you! Li Wanfeng breathed a sigh of relief for a long time, her eyes were shining with a strange light, this light was different from usual, Tao Xiaoxiao just smiled.
