The General's Mansion is as usual.

Yu Die'er has been ordered by Xiao Tiantu to dress up as a village girl, and secretly escort her south.

In the secret room, Xiao Tiantu slowly walked to the piano that Yu Die'er did not take away, and stood still for a long time, Xiao Tiantu slowly raised his hand and plucked the piano twice, the sound of the piano was melodious, echoing in this empty secret room for a long time.

Xiao Tiantu closed his eyes, and a trace of Jade Die'er's elegant figure in the attic that day flashed in his mind, such a beautiful woman, she had such light skills, to be honest, Xiao Tiantu's heart was moved at that time.

Xiao Tiantu fought all his life, and when he was young, he fought with Xiao Shifeng, and later after the establishment of the new dynasty, he was entrusted with important tasks by Xiao Shifeng at a young age, he worked day and night, Xiao Shifeng had the idea of introducing him to some princes and nobles, Xiao Tiantu politely declined.

He has no sweetheart, only the affairs of the world in his heart.

Even for Yang Feng, the righteous son, he only hurt him for two or three years when he was a child, and then slowly, gradually, faded away, because there were too many government affairs that he needed to deal with, and he sometimes didn't even return to the house for a month.

He and Xiao Shifeng are actually not related by blood, Xiao Shifeng just simply trusts him, after all, Xiao Tiantu desperately fought to save him by killing him in a bloody way several times.

And Xiao Tiantu is just simply grateful, he is grateful to Xiao Shifeng for giving him the power above 10,000 people under one person, he regards himself as a member of the Xiao family who rules the world, so every time he thinks about one thing and does one thing, he will consider the Xiao family, he is far-sighted, and it has reached a hundred years later, how the descendants of the Xiao family hold the power and how to deal with themselves.

He regarded these as his life.

For the love of children and the love of men and women, he is as ignorant as a child, but he sees through the red dust like an old man.

Isn't it the same with Master's selection? Maybe people have different missions and different ways to live a lifetime. Ordinary people marry wives and have children, and people who do great things often have to sacrifice themselves to become benevolent, and they don't know who should envy whom.

Xiao Tiantu couldn't help but put the hand that had touched the strings close to the tip of his nose, and there was still a trace of residual fragrance.

Behind him, a soldier came to report, and everything was ready.

Xiao Tiantu just woke up from a dream, Yu Die'er had already left, and next, it was his turn.

According to the previous plan, he also had to leave here, and he was alone, just like a charlatan, the difference was that he would eventually have a home.

In the General's Mansion, except for this cronie, no one knew that Xiao Tiantu was also leaving.

Xiao Tiantu told the people in the General's Mansion that he was going to enter the palace to participate in political affairs in the next few days, and he might not come back to live.

These people are very accustomed to Xiao Tiantu going out for ten days and half a month, so they didn't feel anything unusual.

This cronie was a little stunned when he saw Xiao Tiantu, and he didn't react for a long time, so he said softly again: "General, everything is ready." “

Xiao Tiantu suddenly asked, "Xiaoma, how many years have you been with me?"

The cronie thought for a moment and said, "It's been five years, General. ”

Xiao Tiantu asked, "Have you been happy by my side for the past five years?"

Pony thought for a moment and said, "Happy." ”

Xiao Tiantu frowned: "In the past five years, you have left your hometown and waited for me every day, why are you still happy." ”

Pony thought for a moment and said, "The general is not the same, he is dedicated to the country and has no concept of home. Xiaoma admires the general, the general is a great example, Xiaoma is an ordinary person, and he is fortunate to be able to benefit the country and the people, and he has not lived in vain in this life. ”

Xiao Tiantu was a little shocked that this pony had such thoughts, so he said, "I remember you once said that there is a young brother and an old mother at home. Your brother must be fifteen or sixteen by now. ”

"Yes. The pony replied crisply.

Xiao Tiantu took the jade pendant he was carrying from his waist and threw it back to the pony.

The pony hurried to catch it, but he didn't know what it meant.

Xiao Tiantu said: "This jade pendant was rewarded by His Majesty back then, blessed from all directions, its workmanship is exquisite, the original jade is rare, and it can be described as priceless." Now that the world is in chaos, it is inconvenient for you to go back to your hometown and take the money. This jade pendant is regarded as my compensation for all these years, and I will give you another book to repair and send to your local governor Xu Jinnian, who used to be my subordinate and can be trusted. When you arrive, show him this jade pendant, and he will arrange a position for you in the mansion, and your brother will also be safe. In the future, you can also eat and drink without worrying with your money, and this jade pendant can be left for the peace of the world or when the family is in great trouble. ”

Xiao Tiantu's words were thoughtful, but he listened to this pony stupidly.

The pony man is honest, but from Xiao Tiantu's words, he has already guessed something, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "General, are you going to drive the pony away?"

Xiao Tiantu closed his eyes, a little tired: "Pony, the general still has a lot of things to do, you can't go if you don't go." The general's way south is long, and staying with you will only get in the way. ”

The pony didn't care about the left and right, and said, "General, the pony will stay in the mansion and wait for you to come back!"

Xiao Tiantu shook his head and said, "You are honest by nature, you can't keep this secret." I let you go for your own good. I will tell others that I want to go to the palace to report on my work, and you didn't help me arrange the itinerary, so I drove you away. ”

"General. When the pony looked up again, it was already in tears.

"Let's go, you go now. Xiao Tiantu waved his hand, and the pony was still kneeling there, with no intention of leaving.

Xiao Tiantu was a little impatient: "If you don't leave, General Ben is really going to drive you away." If you don't leave, General Ben will take some time to drive you away, and when the time comes, neither side will be able to get along. “

The pony stood up tremblingly: "General......"

"Let's go, you're still young, and you'll have a lot to go through in the future. Xiao Tiantu waved his hand again, the pony cried and knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Tiantu three times, and stood behind Xiao Tiantu and looked at Xiao Tiantu's back for a long time before turning to leave.

After the pony left, Xiao Tiantu sighed and looked at the ceiling, he had thought of killing him for a moment, but in the end he couldn't bear it, he thought about it all night, and decided to let him go the way he arranged for him today.

This young man, they didn't know each other before, but Xiaoma knew how to be grateful, his eyes were pure, which was also the reason why Xiao Tiantu let her go, so Xiao Tiantu also trusted him very much.

Since ancient times, people with clean hearts will never be too difficult to encounter.

......

Those powerful ministers in the court, also Su Yongjin let Xiao Tiantu look at it twice, and the rest of the people, more or less, selfishness occupied half of their hearts, and tended to be inflammatory. But Xiao Tiantu didn't embarrass them, because Xiao Tiantu also knew that these people could also do something, and as for those shortcomings, they were undoubtedly the shortcomings of ordinary people.

You can't ask everyone to be selfless, but you can ask them to do their part. Simply this team, most of them are also veterans since the establishment of the new dynasty, and after a few years of running-in, there has been such a prosperous era.

Although it is not long, on the whole, it greatly exceeds Xiao Tiantu's expectations.
