Tao Li'er and Qin Lao Yao glanced at each other, they were summoned so soon? This emperor is inevitably too calm.

Qin Lao Yao smiled, "It must be because of the barbarians." ”

Tao Li'er asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with the barbarians?" ”

Qin Laoyao explained, "In the past few days, your mind has been on the king of Li, and you don't know the rumors outside, I heard that the people who came from the ground are saying that the barbarians are about to move, and they want to attack the eastern border, winter is approaching, the barbarians have experienced a war, and the losses have been heavy, and this winter has passed, and the barbarian population is probably not much left." ”

Tao Li'er understood, and Qin Lao Yao continued: "It must be the barbarians who put some pressure on Donglin, otherwise the emperor would not be in such a hurry to summon General Tong. ”

"The emperor also summoned the little general." Xiang'er interjected on the side, Tao Li'er didn't take this matter to heart, and suddenly her heart sank, if it was really as Xiang'er said, I'm afraid things would be different.

"Hasn't my eldest brother returned home yet?" Tao Li'er looked at Xiang'er with a serious expression, and Xiang'er nodded, "The slave has been sending people to guard the gate of the mansion for a few days, and there is no figure of the little general." ”

Tao Li'er was a little anxious, "This is not good, the emperor summoned the eldest brother, if the eldest brother didn't know anything, it would be fine, but he heard my conversation with General Tong, and he must have begun to doubt the royal family in his heart, and he may have a lot of resentment in his heart, if this is to enter the palace." ”

Qin Laoyao also frowned, "If the court makes a mistake, I'm afraid he will be arrested, General Tong is loyal to Donglin, and it is unknown whether he will protect his son at that time." ”

After Qin Laoyao finished speaking, Tao Li'er was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked Abei to find Tong Yimeng, and wanted to send all the little people in the house to find it, but was stopped by Xiang'er, "Miss, it would be bad if you let Young Lady Zuo know, didn't you say that you want to hide it from her?" ”

Tao Li'er came back to her senses at this time, yes, it seems that she can only do it secretly, "Okay, be careful, if you find someone, bring someone back, just say that I have something to find him." ”

Tao Li'er carefully told Ah Bei, but she didn't expect Ah Bei to go this time, and there was no news all day, but she would still send someone back every two hours to report the situation.

"Miss, I've looked for the inn restaurant in the north of the city, but I haven't."

"Miss, the north guard took everyone to the south of the city and the west of the city to look through it carefully, but there was nothing."

"There is no east of the city, and Abei has led people out of the city."

……

As soon as the results of the search during the whole day came out, it only clearly showed that Tong Yimeng might not be in the capital, Tao Li'er regretted a little why he didn't let people arrest him back at that time, and where to find him when he went out of the city?

Just when Tao Li'er was at a loss, Xiang'er suddenly ran in excitedly, "Miss! Miss! The little general is back! ”

Xiang'er's face was full of joy that she couldn't hide, and Tao Li'er was also very happy to hear it, "Where?" ”

Xiang'er directly pulled Tong Yimeng outside, and just happened to bump into Tong Yimeng who was about to come in at the gate of the West Courtyard.

Tao Li'er frowned and pulled him in, and told Xiang'er to prepare clean water and food, and before Tao Li'er could say anything, Tong Yimeng spoke first, "You have something to do with me?" Say it as soon as possible, I still have something to do. ”

Tao Li'er frowned, seeing the bloodshot in Tong Yimeng's eyes, the reproach she wanted to say was stopped, Tong Yimeng couldn't accept it for a while, it was reasonable, Tao Li'er and General Tong didn't have a deep relationship, but Tong Yimeng grew up beside General Tong since he was a child, and now he suddenly learned that his father might stand by his mother's family, or even be an accomplice, and he would definitely not feel good.

But now the form does not allow the two of them to think too much, Tao Li'er can only quickly persuade Tong Yimeng to wait for Xunfeng Lou's letter with her.

"If you have nothing to say, then I will go back to see Rongrong, and I will enter the palace tomorrow." Tong Yimeng spoke again, and Tao Li'er was surprised, "Are you crazy?" What do you want? ”

Tong Yimeng looked at Tao Li'er, "Of course, I went to ask the emperor whether Tao's treason in person was true, since there is a hidden secret, I want to ask for the case to be overturned!" ”

Tao Li'er was about to be laughed at angrily, "You have no evidence, who listens to you, besides, if this matter is really related to the royal family, do you think you can get out of it?" I don't want the emperor to make an excuse to say that you will be arrested for the next offense! ”

Tong Yimeng was very persistent, "I was young before, and I don't know why my mother was sad, but now that I know that my mother's family has suffered this kind of grievance, I naturally want to seek justice for her!" ”

Tao Li'er sighed, "Big brother, what I said that day should be clear enough, the guess is good, the Tao family's treason back then was planned by the Mo family, and now you want to let the murderer overturn the case, do you think it's feasible?" ”

Tong Yimeng said, "At least let people know that the Tao family was wronged in front of them, and it was worth it for me to enter the palace." ”

After speaking, Tong Yimeng got up and left, Tao Li'er knew that she couldn't be persuaded to do so, so she could only think of something else, and after thinking about it, she could only go to General Tong, after all, it was the two of them who would enter the palace tomorrow.

Tao Li'er went to General Tong's study again, and the housekeeper was also there, this time she didn't stop her, but stepped forward and asked, "Why hasn't Miss come over these days?" I heard that Miss is sick? Is it okay now? ”

Tao Li'er gave a perfunctory smile, and then pushed the door in, General Tong was not surprised to see her, his expression was a little stiff, "You are here." ”

The relationship is like this, Tao Li'er can't get the false concern, and gets straight to the point, "The eldest brother is back, you will enter the palace together tomorrow, the eldest brother wants to overturn the case for his mother, I hope you can save him." ”

General Tong's body was stunned, and he glanced at Tao Li'er coldly, "In that case, why don't you persuade him?" ”

Tao Li'er smiled, "Your own son, you should know his temper, it's a fact that you're sorry for your mother, her son, you must keep it even if it's to make amends, isn't it?" ”

Tao Li'er didn't speak politely, and General Tong was a little embarrassed, "You hate me so much?" When confronted with this, I really didn't know about it, and your mother didn't mention it to me. ”

Tao Li'er smiled, "Don't know? Okay, even if you don't know, but your mother definitely didn't greet you with a smile at that time, even if you care a little more, we won't get along like this today, you are ashamed of your mother, it is true to turn a blind eye, and now let you make up for it, it is also what you should do, of course, you can also choose to continue to turn a blind eye. ”

General Tong was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, as if he was ten years old all of a sudden, "Don't worry, I will try my best to keep him." ”

Tao Li'er got the answer she wanted, and then nodded, "Then thank you General Tong." ”

Hearing that Tao Li'er called General Tong back again, he must have denied him as a father, but as Tao Li'er said, he was indeed responsible for what happened back then......
