Xiao Zhengguo smiled and stared at Gao Zongxian beside him.
In all these years, he has never seen Xiao Zhengguo look so happy!
At the same time, I felt even more fortunate. Fortunately, I didn't lynch Xiao Xian, otherwise I might have lost the teacher's support!
"Yes, I've grown taller."
Xiao Zhengguo stepped off the four-clawed dragon chair and patted Xiao Xian on the shoulder.
"I heard about your plan. It was very good. It seems that you have not neglected it in these years."
"Then Grandpa Xiao, can I..."
Xiao Xian was excited. If he could follow Xiao Zhengguo, why should he worry about safety issues? I am afraid that glory and wealth would come to him!
"Stay in the East Palace." Xiao Zhengguo looked at Gao Zongxian: "Work harder and help His Highness share more government affairs."
Xiao Xian nodded, yes, if Xiao Zhengguo wanted to become an official, it would not be difficult.
But since he arranged himself in the East Palace, he must have his intentions.
Xiao Xian was calculating in his mind, but he didn't notice the burning gaze in Gao Zongxian's eyes who was looking at him from the side.
"If Xiao Xian is the teacher, it will be much safer!"
On the other side, after seeing Gao Zongxian's reaction, Xiao Zhengguo put his hands behind his back and said:
"In that case, A-Xian, please help His Highness more in the future, and I will leave first."
"Congratulations, teacher!"
"Goodbye, Grandpa Xiao."
Xiao Zhengguo waved to stop the two men sending him off and walked out of the main hall alone.
"Go home."
Sitting on the sedan chair, Xiao Zhengguo looked at Xiao Xian intentionally or unintentionally and murmured:
"As expected of being your child..."
Zuo Xiangfu.
"Everyone, please step back."
Xiao Zhengguoping retired his servants and walked into the study alone.
"Axian..."
Pushing open the bookshelf, he took out a jade pendant from a hidden compartment.
And if Xiao Xian were here, he would be surprised to find:
This jade pendant actually fit perfectly with his!
Its appearance was not very good, but it did not prevent Xiao Zhengguo from holding it in his hands like a treasure.
Touching the jade pendant, Xiao Zhengguo's consciousness gradually returned to the past.
…
"Wow wow~"
"Don't cry, don't cry, daddy gives me a hug!"
"Okay, sir, give it to me. The child is hungry."
"Here you go, this brat, he's fine in your arms, but he cries when I hold him."
In a simple room, a middle-aged man, dumbfounded, held the baby in his arms to the beautiful woman opposite.
"It's not that your murderous aura is too strong. Xian'er is so young, how can he withstand your scare."
The beautiful woman rolled her eyes at the other person, took the child and started coaxing it.
"Beidi is ferocious, and rebels from all walks of life are eyeing it. If I don't fight to bring peace to the world, how can I protect the peace of my Gao family?"
"Besides, when your father agreed to marry you to me, wasn't he also interested in this?"
"You, alas..." the beautiful woman hesitated, "I'm not telling you, but you'd better pay attention. Now your military merit has exceeded that of all the generals combined. Haven't you seen that the way your brother looks at you has changed? ?”
"Madam, you are too worried. Brother, what will he think of me?" The strong man seemed to be amused by the other party. "We have already discussed it. After defeating Ni Zhou and expelling Beidi, we will establish a country and name it Chu. .”
"At that time, we will follow the example of the ancient Yu Dynasty when the two emperors came to the court and ruled the world together!"
"What about the second generation? The second emperor has no descendants, so what will happen to you two?"
"Eldest brother said that when the time comes, both Ah Xian and Xiao Xian will be crown princes, and whoever is capable will be chosen."
"Madam, don't worry. I've done so much for Da Chu, and there's no way that eldest brother will treat me badly!"
"hope so……"
The beautiful woman felt a little heavy and was about to look out the window to relax, but her pupils dilated instantly!
…
"Kill!"
"The dog thief Gao He has killed countless compatriots on our grassland. It's time for you to die today!"
"Break through their fence!"
"..."
"Husband! Husband! Beidi is coming!"
"Ma'am, don't be joking. Brother is planning to build a capital here. How can the protection...really come?"
Seeing that the beautiful woman's expression didn't look fake, Gao He subconsciously looked out the window, and soon saw a burst of dust!
"How is that possible? Could it be that the city gate has been lost? Where is my elder brother! Someone! Escort my wife and children away!"
"Commander He, the Jiedushi led the army to inspect the new capital. These Beidi took advantage of the opportunity and went south, charging all the way!"
"What!?"
Gao He's face was full of disbelief, when did the eldest brother leave? ?
Why doesn’t he have any news at all? ?
But at this moment, he couldn't allow him to think too much, and hurriedly ordered: "Bring me my armor. If I can kill them and form the royal court, I can kill these Beidi Zhujing Temple!"
But the incident happened suddenly. Even though Gao He was extremely brave, there were few people in the camp and Beidi was well prepared, Gao He still died in the battle.
"The Gaohe dog thief is nothing more than that, search it for me!"
"It is difficult to understand the hatred in this king's heart without slaughtering his entire family!"
"Your Majesty! We have found Gao He's wife!"
"Where's their child...forget it, time has changed. I'll burn down the handsome man's house, and he won't survive!"
"yes!"
"set fire!"
…
Xiao Zhengguo will never forget the day when he and Emperor Chu went to inspect the new capital.
On the way, I received news that Beidi was going south. When I returned to the city, I found that both Xiang'er and Gao He had been burned into mummies in the commander's mansion.
No wonder that when I set out that day, my heart felt abnormally tight.
No wonder Gao Sheng insisted on taking him with him that day to inspect the current capital.
It turned out that Gao Sheng was not prepared to rule the world together with Gao He.
He was not even willing to claim the throne, but instead colluded with the Beidi people to go south and directly killed the Gao He family!
I am afraid of being a master of great achievements!
He was afraid that Gao He would compete with him for the throne!
Even killing Gao He wasn't enough, he actually didn't even spare his daughter Xiao Xiang.
But perhaps it was God's favor that allowed him to find his grandson hidden underground by Xiao Xiang in the ruins.
That is Xiao Xian, or Gao Zongxian.
Considering that Gao Sheng was very powerful at the time, and he did not have enough evidence to prove that it was Gao Sheng who did it.
Xiao Zhengguo had no choice but to protect his grandson secretly. After Gao Sheng held a grand funeral for Gao He's family, he raised Xiao Xian as an abandoned baby.
Xiao Zhengguo will never forget the grief in his heart at the funeral.
He will never forget his forbearance when he later lied about his grandson's age and changed his name to Xiao Xian.
Especially later, when he continued to collect evidence and confirmed that the incident was the work of Gao Sheng, he wanted to kill Gao Sheng on the spot.
However, the overall situation was decided at that time, and Gao Sheng had the support of more than half of the thirteen families with five surnames. He could not even fully represent the Xiao family, so how could he talk about avenging his daughter?
So he just arranged Xiao Xian to the East Palace and had no further plans.
Xiao Zhengguo even tried hard to forget what happened back then in order not to behave strangely in front of Gao Sheng.
It wasn't until I went to court just now that I learned about these decrees coming from the East Palace.
