Tao Yaoyao was stunned, and came without a reaction for a while, Gu Zhiqi also smiled and waited patiently for her to come back to her senses.

Tao Yaoyao looked at the thing in his hand, this little golden pimple is so powerful? She retracted her hand and shoved it back.

"I don't want something so valuable, and it would be a sin to lose it." She still understands Huaibi's guilt.

"If I lose it, I'll find it again." Gu Zhiqi laughed heartily, and came with incomparable confidence.

Tao Yaoyao looked at him like this, calmed down, and said softly: "Outsiders say that you have no intention of ruling and are weak. In my opinion, your body is very good, and it is not difficult to live for 180 years. But I'm afraid it's fake—"

This sentence is a temptation, because the answer is yes, just to test the other person's attitude.

"It's a bad thing, that's right! Exactly as it is. Gu Zhiqi also admitted it very happily, without the slightest hesitation.

So refreshing? That's it? Whether or not there is a mistake, the lines she prepared are useless.

On the surface, it seems that the people of Nansu have enough food and clothing, and the merchants and farmers are extremely developed, but in fact, the struggle for the rights of the aristocracy is fierce, the government is turbulent, and countless people have died for it, but it is not known. My royal brother, just because he was born earlier than me, just because his mother is high and powerful, can be respected by the world, if he really is dedicated to the people. Gu Zhiqi clenched his fists when he said this.

"Isn't the eldest prince deeply popular with the people?" Tao Yao is suspicious, Gu Zhixian's reputation is very good.

"Won the hearts of the people? Hahahaha! In a flood last year, he sent a million taels of silver for a good reputation, and the world said that he was a great good man, and if he became the emperor, the world would be peaceful! But do you know where the one million taels came from? Gu Zhiqi looked at Tao Xiaoxiao with red eyes.

Tao Yaoyao subconsciously shook her head, she was not a local and didn't know much about Nansu at all.

"It's not the donations of those corrupt officials, nor the extravagant gifts of those corrupt officials, but the taxes of the border people have increased tenfold, the exploitation of small businessmen everywhere has been wiped out, thousands of miles of fertile land have been occupied, and those peasant households have been exterminated!" After saying this, Gu Zhiqi had completely lost his usual gentle and elegant posture, but became arrogant and out of control.

Tao Yaoyao was shocked at first, then annoyed, then indignant, and finally quieted down.

"How about we make a deal?" The two were speechless for a while, and neither of them spoke. For a moment, Tao Yao broke the strange silence first.

"Let's talk about it." Gu Zhiqi smiled and returned to the elegant man.

"I will help you win the great rivers and mountains of Nansu, how about you help me escape from Beigao?" She needed a backer before her wings were full, and the man in front of her was just right.

"Okay." Gu Zhiqi didn't hesitate at all, so he agreed.

Tao Yaoyao also smiled, and the two of them high-fived as an alliance, without any paper deed, and no paper deed.

"I'll give Xiaoxiao a new identity, let's rest early." After Gu Zhiqi finished speaking, he got up and left.

Tao Yaoyao looked at his back, one side full of sunlight, and the other side in the dark. Just like the sunflower, the world thinks that this flower is towards the sun and towards the light, countless praises and praises, but they do not know that this flower is a spirit covered in darkness, and the huge flower plate is just an umbrella for the flower to seek shelter from the sun. Only darkness can make it grow against the light!

After Tao Yao saw that the people were gone, he gently put down the pastry in his hand, pulled out the hairpin on his head and tried the poison.

"I didn't change color, it seems that this person has no intention of harming me. But it is also important to be guarded against. Tao Xiaoyao muttered to herself.

It's a wonderful thing in the world, two people who trust and love each other have to separate the sky, and two people who don't trust each other and use each other get together.

After Tao Xiaoxiao tried non-toxic, he was relieved to put this jade cake in his mouth, and the taste was really perfect!

Suddenly, there was a stirring in her head.

"I specially made some pastries today, do you want to try them?"

"Delicious!"

"Have you eaten enough?"

"Well, it's full."

"But—I'm still hungry—"

"Xiao'er, this is your favorite jade cake."

"You scared me, why are you on the roof? I thought you were gone! ”

"I—I'm not going to leave my child behind."

"Did you see that? The person just now was the third man's subordinate. ”

"Well, I'm afraid the last time the Salt Gang happened because of his greed."

"If the guess is correct, the third child should not know what he did, but it's okay, if it weren't for his greed, how would we have found out about the problem with the Salt Gang."

"In half an hour, they'll be trading at the docks."

"So early? No wonder he ventured to check it out. ”

"I've already arranged the rest, just leave it to me."

"How could this show be without me!"

"You! If you want me to take you how it is, it's good! ”

There were many fragmentary shots in Taoyao's mind, and those clips were irregular and unprepared. Tao Xiaoyao only felt a splitting headache, as if she had fallen into endless darkness, but she was not the one in this darkness, she could not see or touch but could feel the other party's breathing and heartbeat.

"Who is it!?"

"Come out! Who is it? ”

Tao Yaoyao stood up on the table, tearing aimlessly, but her body went weak before she took two steps.

"Young, young?" Gu Zhiqi, who had just gone out, heard the voice behind him, and hurriedly opened the curtain, but saw Tao Yao fainting on the ground.

"Someone!" Gu Zhiqi only felt shocked, and picked up the peach and put it on the bed. He frowned when he picked up Taoyao's body, but he didn't know that this woman was so light, and it was distressing.

Because everything was arranged in advance, there was also a retinue of imperial physicians in this team, and only after taking the pulse of Tao Xiaoxiao did he say: "If you go back to the second prince, this girl should have thought too much, and she had been injured in the head before, so she fainted." However, the old man just checked the pulse, and saw that her meridians were peculiar, as if she had been poisoned, but if she did, she would not have lived until now. The old man first prescribed some medicine for her to condition her body, and asked the second prince to ask a master to diagnose and treat her. ”

"There is labor." Gu Zhiqi replied gently, his voice soft.

"The second prince is serious." The imperial doctor followed the person to boil the medicine, and only Gu Zhiqi and Tao Yaoyao were left.

"Death, God is sometimes so unfair." Gu Zhiqi stroked the broken hair on her cheeks and continued: "I know that you have suffered and sinned, and we are the same people. If I hadn't been so weak, how would I have survived to this day? And you, just a woman, have to carry so many earthly complexities. What do you want me to do? Gu Zhiqi muttered to himself.

Tao Yaoyao kept groping and wandering in that darkness, as if after a few reincarnations, time and space had stopped running, and the only thing around her was darkness, and the only thing that could support her was that familiar breath and heartbeat. Suddenly, she saw a fire, and then the fire became more and more raging, and the red glow rose from it, and the sorrow of the sky was soaked in it.

Tao Yaoyao was inexplicably sad, the fire seemed to want to say something to her, she couldn't hear clearly, she felt confused, she felt helpless. In this lonely and desolate world, she couldn't hold on to anything, she missed her mother. She misses the dumplings made by her mother during the Chinese New Year, the nursery rhymes snuggled in her mother's arms, the taste of her mother, and she wants to go home.

Tao Xiaoyao left tears, and just when she was crying, Gu Zhiqi looked at her complicated eyes, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. He gently wiped away the few crystal tears and put his index finger in his mouth. Bitter, overflowing.

When Tao Xiaoxiao woke up again, the sky had just dawned, and she moved the muscles and bones on her body, as if her whole body was falling apart. It was as if she had had a long dream, in which she returned to where she used to be. Tao Yaoyao has never been more clear than now, she was originally helpless and careless in this world, those who loved her and those she loved came and went in a hurry, Xiaoshan will also have someone to take care of it, Tao Xiaoyao remembered the shy but cold-faced man and smiled.

Her determined eyes seemed to have been reborn, and she was determined to have one goal - she wanted to go back! Since she can come here, there must be a way to go back. Even if it doesn't work, even if the odds of success are slim, she has to give it a try. She didn't know if she had let go of that past, she just wanted to see her mother again, that's all.

Gu Zhiqi had been in the room all the time, and he didn't leave, just sat on a chair in the hall. The sound made by Tao Xiaoyao alarmed him, and he hurriedly entered the back room, and was relieved to see that Tao Yaoyao had woken up, but he felt that something was different. The woman in front of him seemed to have something more, he couldn't say it clearly, but it was so shining.

"You've been here?" Tao Yaoyao was stunned at first, she didn't expect this man to care so much about herself.

Gu Zhiqi's throat was dry, but he nodded slightly.

"Thank you." Tao Yaoyao thought she could say more, but when she came to her mouth, she realized that she could only say this sentence.

"Are you feeling better?" Gu Zhiqi asked in a calm voice.

"I'm worried about you, I've broken my head twice and I haven't fallen stupidly, am I considered a blessing? However, this lost memory is always inexplicable, and sometimes I don't know why I get dizzy. Tao Xiaoxiao smiled, and said that the cloud was light and light, but in Gu Zhiqi's opinion, it was a pool of secluded pool water, which could not fluctuate.

"Master—" At this time, someone outside reported it.

"What?" Gu Zhiqi stood up and came to the door.

"Spy report, there is a team of people chasing all the way behind."

"How far is it?" Gu Zhiqi raised his eyebrows, so fast? It deserves to be him.

"Ten miles to go."

"The whole team is in line and marches in two ways." Take the opportunity to make a decision.

"Yes!"
