Su Jianyue was not curious about how Xiao Yuqi knew about this.
She just nodded.
"He said he was from Taojialing, Jinzhou, and his name was Taozhou. But I think he was just a charlatan. He always spoke nonsense and was not a reliable person."
Su Jianyue said as she spoke.
He held a dry biscuit in both hands and nibbled it in small bites.
Don't look at him when you talk?
And he looked extremely busy.
There is no credibility in saying this again.
He poured a bowl of hot water and pushed it in front of Su Jianyue.
"Who is Tao Zhou, Yue'er, I know better than you."
...
...
Taojialing is not an ordinary place.
It is the stronghold of one of the most prestigious families in the entire Jinzhou.
Tao Zhou is the only legitimate grandson of the Tao family in the hundred-year history.
He is both the legitimate son and the eldest.
He is the next patriarch of the Tao family.
The entire Taojialing is the territory of the Tao family.
In fact.
This is just appearance.
Actually.
In the entire Jinzhou, the Tao family has at least half of the say.
What if you say he is a charlatan?
If people in Jinzhou heard this.
Su Jianyue was afraid that once she entered Jinzhou, she would never be able to escape safely.
"The Tao family has lasted for a hundred years and has produced two imperial masters. The ancestors of the Tao family once made great contributions in the battle of Tianyu to repel the Turks. Although the Tao family has long retired and no longer cares about worldly affairs, Yue'er, mastering the basic trends of such a large Pang family is a task that a qualified emperor cannot fall behind."
An emperor.
If you don't care about your own country or the distribution of power in your country.
Then, that emperor must not be a good emperor.
The reason why he was able to nurture his own power in the cracks and gain a foothold in the political power that had already been distributed was that he
It is because he thoroughly understands the strengths and weaknesses of each family.
Accurately capture every available person.
Gradually, without anyone noticing, he established the Tianji Tower.
After he officially came to power, he established the Black Armor Army with lightning speed.
Officially and openly, it broke the pattern that had been formed and stabilized for many years under Tianyu's father's rule.
Therefore, those who have lost their interests because of him will rack their brains to kill him.
Yes.
When everyone realized that he was not a puppet emperor, it was no longer so easy to kill him.
"So, Yue'er, if you have something to say, just say it. Such lies won't fool me."
He was not angry.
Instead, he was telling Su Jianyue a fact.
No matter how big and glorious a dynasty is, it will collapse one day.
Two thousand years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.
There are many historical truths that have been buried in the dust of history and cannot be verified or trusted at all.
At least, Su Jianyue had never heard of Tao Zhou's family background.
So, when Tao Zhou formally introduced himself to her for the first time.
Is it a test for her?
Su Jianyue took a big bite of the hard corn cake fiercely and almost broke her teeth.
It’s worthy of the ancient times.
The average person has eight hundred thoughts!
In the end, the clown turned out to be herself?
Xiao Yuqi quickly reached out and took a large piece of biscuit out of her mouth.
"Eat slowly, aren't you afraid of choking?"
He carefully wiped the crumbs from the corners of Su Jianyue's mouth.
"So, he was waiting for me there on purpose from the beginning?"
Xiao Yuqi brought the bowl of water to Su Jianyue's lips.
After feeding her a sip of water, he said, "The Tao family has not been involved in government affairs for many years. This time, Tao Zhou came here, and I really can't guess what he is thinking."
He didn't understand why it happened at this moment.
Su Jianyue had a flash of inspiration.
"By the way, his jade pendant is still with me. He didn't ask me for it when he saw me just now."
Su Jianyue said this and took out the jade pendant from his pocket.
The jade pendant is not big, but the water content is very good.
There were some winding patterns carved on it, and Su Jianyue couldn't understand what they were.
"After hearing what you said just now, I just remembered that he kept this jade pendant on purpose and asked me to pass it on to you, right?"
The warm yellow jade pendant was handed to Xiao Yuqi's palm.
Xiao Yuqi took a look.
His eyes settled.
Suddenly smiled.
"This is the order from the head of the Tao family."
"ah?"
Even though Su Jianyue didn't quite understand how the heads of these families were selected, she had to know that the Patriarch's Order must be a very important item in every family.
"Where is the Patriarch's Order written here?"
How come she didn't see that?
Xiao Yuqi patiently explained to her: "The carvings on this jade pendant are not flowers, birds, fish or insects, but characters, the Tao character of the Tao family. This character was written by the Yuanzu Emperor himself, and it is unique in the world."
"No wonder I couldn't tell what pattern was carved on it."
It turns out that it’s because she can’t read!
As expected, being uneducated is the most terrifying thing.
"I think I understand what he means."
Tao Zhou personally took the patriarch's order out of the Tao family and handed it to him.
The implication of surrender is obvious.
The Tao family extended an olive branch to him at this time, which was a hundred benefits and no harm to him.
Obviously.
Su Jianyue also understood what Tao Zhou meant.
A huge rock suddenly pressed down on my heart.
Su Jianyue held the bowl of water in both hands.
Asked: "He is very useful to you now, right?"
Xiao Yuqi hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
"yes."
"So, do you still want to listen to what I say?"
"Of course I will listen to what you say."
Su Jianyue took a deep breath.
He said: "No matter what happens in the future, you must remember that there are no gods in this world, no elixir of life, and no one can achieve immortality."
Su Jianyue saw through his thoughts.
Xiao Yuqi asked tentatively: "Why are you saying this for no reason?"
"Xiao Yuqi, I have studied history."
Just one sentence.
Xiao Yuqi was silent.
His silence represented his consent.
In fact.
He had no intention of giving up his search for the legendary elixir of life.
There is no other reason.
He has never been a lucky man.
What you fear will always become reality.
Therefore, Xiao Yuqi has become accustomed to imagining everything in the worst possible scenario.
He still doesn't understand why he and Su Jianyue met.
Witnessed the journey across time and space with my own eyes.
This made him, who had always been able to plan and strategize, completely lose control for the first time.
He was not sure that he could keep Su Jianyue.
What if what he worried about became a reality again?
Then, he must find her in her world in his own way.
Whether it is two thousand years or twenty thousand years.
As long as she is still in the future, he will definitely find her.
Su Jianyue still didn't understand how paranoid Xiao Yuqi was.
In fact.
In front of Su Jianyue.
Xiao Yuqi has always disguised himself very well.
The occasional display of arrogance was also within Su Jianyue's acceptable range.
He curled his lips.
Warm hands covered Su Jianyue's hands holding the tea bowl.
The water in the bowl is cold.
Xiao Yuqi's palms were burning hot.
Cold and hot intertwined and overlapped, Su Jianyue lowered his eyes.
Her worried face was reflected in the water.
"Okay, I understand."
Xiao Yuqi took the tea bowl away from Su Jianyue's hand.
"Hurry and eat."
Su Jianyue looked at him.
There was a faint smile on his lips as always.
"I remember it, really."
Su saw the moon and didn't know what it tasted like.
Had dinner.
Xiao Yuqi forced her to lie on the couch and rest.
"Have a good rest, then we'll go together."
After traveling all night, Su Jianyue was indeed extremely tired to be able to hold on until now.
After a while, he actually fell into a deep sleep.
She didn't know that after she fell asleep, Xiao Yuqi walked out of the tent holding the patriarch's order.
"Where is Taozhou?"
The patrolling general said, "I have arranged for him to stay in Commander Chen's tent."
Chen Gang is a calm and rigid person, and Tao Zhou lives with him.
I'm afraid I'll suffocate.
Xiao Yuqi walked away.
Before I got close, I heard bursts of shrill wails.
"Ouch! My butt crack!"
"What do you want?"
Chen Gang's angry voice came.
Another voice sounded again.
"I want to eat soup noodles, not dry corn biscuits."
Chen Gang was furious.
"This is a military camp. Even if you are His Majesty, you are the same as us. You only have corn cakes to eat. Who do you think you are? You came to the military camp and ordered food?"
"I don't care, I don't care, I don't care. I just want to eat soup noodles."
"Look at my temper. I'm going to drag you out right now. A noisy person like you is only fit to live in the same nest with rats."
The heavy curtain was lifted.
Xiao Yuqi stared at the cold wind as he entered.
Tao Zhou, who was originally very noisy and could fight as hard as an entire battalion, covered his butt crack, lay on the hard wooden stick, and reached out to Xiao Yuqi.
"Awoo, Your Majesty, I finally see you! You must make the decision for me!"
"Chen Gang, wait outside. I want to talk to this young master alone."
"yes."
Chen Gang saluted, glared at Tao Zhou, and then retreated.
…
Su Jianyue didn’t sleep for long.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Yuqi sitting in front of the bed, looking at her.
Su Jianyue rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up.
"Why aren't you asleep?"
Xiao Yuqi threw Tao Zhou's cloak aside.
He picked up his cloak and tied it around Su Jianyue's neck.
He raised his hand again and tidied her messy hair.
"It's about time, shall we go now?"
Xiao Yuqi handed a pistol to Su Jianyue.
Before that, Su Jianyue had done three things in Pei Heng's room.
There is one in Su Jianyue's home.
There were two more, which Su Jianyue put into the grenade backpack and gave to Xiao Yuqi.
Several grenades were kicked into Xiao Yuqi's body.
He also took Su Jianyue's high-power flashlight with him.
According to Su Jianyue's description.
It was a very bright, pure white room.
Su Jianyue's high-intensity flashlight can turn the darkness into day once it is turned on.
"Well, okay, let's go."
Su Jianyue rubbed his face.
A moment of clarity.
Xiao Yuqi hugged her.
The two of them went directly from the military camp to...
