Chapter 32: The Secret of the High Sect

Looking at Xiao Han in front of him, Gaozong's face suddenly became more and more gentle: How is he like the prince back then?

No, he is by no means the son of the crown prince Li Chengqian, is it that Gaozong's eyes are a little disordered!

Wu Meiniang was in high spirits at this meeting, so she said: "Mr. Xiaohan, have you been in Datang for almost ten days? Have you considered living in Chang'an, our Datang? Or, how about being an official of our Datang?"

"Huh?" as soon as Wu Meiniang said, Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er's eyes suddenly lit up: This is what they hope for the most!

"Haha, that's impossible, Queen Mother, Mr. Xiao Han is our Turkic guest master, the Queen Mother won't dig the foot of our Turkic wall, right?" Prince Mo Ang said unhappily.

"Hey, His Royal Highness the Prince, that's not what I mean, Mr. Xiaohan is not only the guest of your country, but also the foreign minister of our Tang Dynasty, and he is the official of both countries, doesn't it mean that my Tang Dynasty and the Turkic relationship are closer?" Wu Meiniang said.

"Ah, that's okay?" Prince Mo was taken aback, and his eyes looked at Xiao Han and Tie Ying.

"I don't care, as long as Brother Xiaohan is willing, it's done!" Tie Ying said with a slight smile.

"I'm sorry, I will never be an official of the Tang Dynasty, at least, it is absolutely impossible at present!" Xiao Han's attitude was very resolute.

Listening to Xiao Han's words, Gaozong's face changed again, showing a look of pain, as if he had seen something he didn't want to see the most!

"That's the loss of our Datang, alas, it's a pity, it's a pity, I hope that one day Mr. Xiaohan can change his mind, the door of our Datang will always be open for Mr. Xiaohan, come, we toast Mr. Xiaohan and all the Turkic guests with a cup, everyone, please!" Wu Meiniang took the lead in drinking it all.

"Please!" everyone drank.

"Okay, tomorrow let's appreciate Mr. Xiao Han's swordsmanship; Mr. Xiao Han, tomorrow's sword competition with you will be Mr. Tian Lingzi of the Hainan Sword School, I heard that his swordsmanship was only slightly worse than Mr. Sword Saint back then, hehe, I believe that tomorrow's performance of the two will not disappoint us; haha, come, let's respect Mr. Xiao Han again!" Wu Meiniang drank it all again.

"Haha, I don't refuse to come, I just hope that the seniors of Tianlingzi will not disappoint Zaixia, and it will be good if they can take me ten moves!" Xiao Han's eyes were full of contempt again.

"Okay, sure enough, the true character of a first-class master; Mr. Xiao Han really lives up to the demeanor of the first Turkic swordsman; when Mr. Xiao Han defeats Mr. Tian Lingsheng and Mr. Sword Saint, Mr. Xiao Han is the number one swordsman in the world!" Wu Meiniang smiled again.

Gaozong's face showed a look of worry again, and when Wu Meiniang saw it, she said in his ear: "What, I can't bear it? Why? Do you have any ulterior secrets?"

Obviously, she has already pointed out, could it be that she knows something? Gaozong's face was dazed again, and his eyes fell into deep thought again.

Outside the house, the snow is falling again, layer by layer, although the beginning of spring, but she still does not seem to stop, this spring in Chang'an: very cold, very cold!

It was very late at night, and the banquet in the Qin Mansion was dispersed, and when Xiao Han went back, Princess Taiping had already instructed the coachman to send him off in person, as if she was afraid that he would have any accidents.

The sound of wheels rolling through the snow was heavy, like someone deliberately wheezing.

"Brother Han, have you found it, my imperial father is a little unsettled today, I don't know why?" Princess Taiping suddenly spoke.

"Taiping, I don't know about this, you are his sweetheart, you should know!" Xiao Han took a deep breath, as if he was lying in the snow and gasping.

"I don't know, but as far as I can observe, he must have something in his heart, and it's still a very important thing, but obviously he is a little embarrassed to say, tomorrow, I want to ask!" Princess Taiping has always had no reservations about Xiao Han.

"Since it's hard to say, it's too peaceful, it's better not to ask, why make him unhappy?" Xiao Han said uneasily.

"However, my intuition tells me that this matter is very important, and I don't feel at ease if I don't ask clearly!" Princess Taiping said resolutely.

She is most afraid that Gaozong's heart is related to Xiaohan, if Gaozong has a conspiracy, it will be even more unpleasant, it is terrible!

"Then, Taiping, can you tell the result after asking?" Xiao Han's eyes flickered.

"Definitely, Brother Han, don't worry, there are no secrets between you and me, right?" Princess Taiping said bluntly.

"I'm ashamed, Taiping, I'm sorry, actually, at the beginning, I just wanted to use you to get close to Gaozong Li Zhi, I'm sorry, Taiping!" Xiao Han finally told the truth again.

"It's nothing, Taiping is willing to serve Brother Han, Brother Han doesn't have to care!" Princess Taiping smiled slightly.

She didn't know that Xiao Han hadn't given up his plan to assassinate Gaozong Li Zhi, after all, Zhou Changfeng was killed under his orders, and he had to avenge Zhou Changtian!

"Alas!" Xiao Han couldn't help but sigh, perhaps, in the end, he had to be sorry for this beloved sister, at that time, he didn't know what this sister would do with him, would she kill him and avenge Gaozong?

"Brother Han, what's wrong with you, what are you thinking?" Feeling Xiao Han's low mood, Princess Taiping hurriedly asked, she was most afraid that he would be unhappy.

"Ah, no, it's nothing, it's just a little touching, alas, if Taiping weren't a princess!" Xiao Han said sincerely.

"Yes, this is something that can't be helped, Taiping knows, Brother Han likes me, and I like Brother Han, but this is also a helpless thing!" Princess Taiping's mood suddenly dropped.

When Yu'er heard this, she couldn't help touching her head and said, "Taiping is so good, sister-in-law likes you!"

Princess Taiping didn't speak when she heard this, but only sighed lightly, as if the snow outside the car was the voice in her heart: her beauty, her lightness, but so cold, the cold current was flowing through her heart again and again!

Back in the palace, Gaozong Li Zhi's mood was still calm, his thoughts were still in shock tonight, it seemed that Xiao Han had become a weapon that broke his heart, he was a little afraid of seeing Xiao Han again, he didn't even know how to face Xiao Han.

"What's the matter? Afraid to see him? What is there to be afraid of? Isn't he just a child? Why don't you kill him?" Wu Meiniang said teasingly, obviously: I had already seen through him!

"No, no, if it was yesterday, I would have liked him to die, but now, not anymore, alas, can't either!"

"Oh, why, is there any difference between yesterday and today? Look at what you said, just this little child, what's the big deal? We have at least ten thousand possibilities for him to die without resistance!" Wu Meiniang's eyes were like knives.

"No, I said it, no, don't worry about this, I'll discuss it with Taiping tomorrow!"

"Hmph, is he your illegitimate son? Hmph, don't think I don't know, haha, can you hide your business from me?" Wu Meiniang suddenly laughed.

"I didn't intend to hide it from you, don't you already know about it? No wonder! The massacre of Shahe Town, at the beginning, I just wanted them to find out who was the remnant of the crown prince Chengqian, and only kill him; I didn't give the order to slaughter the town, could it be that you gave the order?" Gaozong's eyes lit up.

"Haha, Your Majesty, I never planned to kill him, I just wanted to force him away, best, go to the Turks, sure enough, that kid went to the Turks, and now, he is back, what are you going to do?" Wu Meiniang's eyes flickered again.

"What can I do? You slaughtered the town, he came to take revenge, maybe he was planning to use Taiping's relationship to find an opportunity to assassinate me, of course, his most important thing may be to take Qing'er away, so at present, even if he has the opportunity, he has not attacked me!"

He knew that Xiao Han's swordsmanship was very good, he really wanted to kill them, he had a few chances, and it was so good that no one could escape, but he didn't do it, obviously had other plans.

"So, he has already lost this battle if he doesn't fight, so he can only play chess according to the chess path we set, hehe, I just hope he doesn't be too aggressive, otherwise, I'm afraid that even his life will be lost, even those two old things in Turkic are no exception!" Wu Meiniang said.

"Could it be that you have eyeliner in the Turks?" Gaozong Li Zhi began to be alert.

"Don't worry, aren't my people also yours? Haha, Your Majesty, we don't need to make the relationship too stiff with him at the moment, it's best to persuade that kid to be the foreign minister; even if you want to recognize this son, I completely agree, haha!" After speaking, Wu Meiniang's eyes smiled again, happier than the haha on her lips.

"Hmph, tell me, what do you want to do? The battle between him and the Sword Saint, is it really a life-and-death duel?" Gaozong was a little angry.

"Hey, Your Majesty, this matter is completely controllable, Sword Saint guy, let's just say a word? As for your son, he will definitely not kill the Sword Saint, let's just have a good time, take a look, see what other variables there are, haha, rest assured, Your Majesty, everything is under our control, hehe!" Wu Meiniang's eyebrows jumped again.

"Then, Mei Niang, do you think I can recognize this son?" Gaozong Li Zhi said uncertainly.

"Admit it, why don't you admit it? Anytime, haha, but, wait for the fifteenth most to say, okay? I really want to watch that battle, it should be very exciting, to see if that sword saint will be as powerful as back then, or will our Xiaohan son be more powerful?" haha!" Wu Meiniang kept laughing.

She suddenly felt that Shangguan Wan'er's plan was really good, it was simply amazing, and now, what they lacked was Taiping's one!

"I don't know what else can be hidden from you in the Tang Palace, alas, you are the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and now, the legislature and the will are all you say, so it can be counted!" Gaozong Li Zhi suddenly sighed and said jealously.

"Your Majesty, it's not that you're not in good health, so I'm in charge, right? Besides, what is not the emperor's will?" Wu Meiniang said.

"That's right, okay, don't talk about it, I see that Hong'er, this kid is very safe, after he ascends the throne, you are not allowed to stumble!" Gaozong said uneasily.

"Don't worry, I'll flash as soon as he ascends the throne, I don't want to annoy people, but you have to ask him to respect me, otherwise, I still have to give him a good look!" Wu Meiniang's eyes flashed again.

"That's, that's, it's best, let's give Taiping more power, let him always know to be filial to you, to be honest, Hong'er is really good, I hope he is better than me, he is a good emperor, alas!" Gaozong Li Zhi said, sighing deeply.

"You are also a good emperor, your majesty, you just love beauties too much, you want to play with any beauty, and even the crown princess of Prince Chengqian has got it!"

Li Zhi was suddenly speechless, and his face was full of shame, and perhaps he had some remorse at this time.

The snow outside the house is still flying down piece by piece, and the snowflakes are gradually submerging Chang'an, this cold night is the real color of Chang'an!
