The river breeze in the golden autumn is as clear as the unpolluted river water in front of you, with a hint of grassy smell peculiar to the water village, patting the river bank and arousing small white foam.

Princess Gao Yang sat on a rock on the bank of the river, using her pair of pink jade-like tender feet to tease the cool water of the river, with her head lowered, she quietly listened to Qin Mubai finished this. What happened in two days.

"In short, it means that my brother intends to murder the prince brother, wants to blame the fourth brother, and even conspiracy, right?" After listening, Princess Gao Yang frowned and said softly.

"Whether he wants to rebel, I don't think he has a very clear idea." Qin Mubai sat beside her, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, and said peacefully, "He just wants to clear the obstacles. Prince, King Wei Is the enemy in his eyes."

"It turns out that my brother is also ambitious." At this time, the princess Gao Yang is quite different from the usual mad and naughty image. With a touch of sadness shrouded in her face, and a bit of confusion and puzzlement, she asked, "Then why did he imprison you in advance?"

Qin Mubai smiled slightly, turning the grass leaves in his mouth, and said: "Perhaps because I arrange the security guards for the Crown Prince's court and Emperor Yang's tomb. They are worried that I will harm them. Thing!"

"Mubai, you don't have to cover up for my brother." Princess Gao Yang's voice suddenly revealed a little sadness. He hugged Qin Mubai's arm, leaned his head gently, and said, "He put You grabbed it because you were afraid that you would not be able to get out after the incident was leaked, right? You are in charge of all the soldiers and horses in Xiangzhou. With you in your hands, he and your uncle will be more likely to get out. Moreover, they are in trouble. Detaining you before sending out, you can plant a false accusation against you, saying that you are also accomplices with it. In this way, if they fail, there will be a helper like you in the end. My brother is just a newly appointed governor of Dengzhou. There is not much strength in soldiers and horses. But you are different. You are in complete control of Xiangzhou soldiers and horses, and you are very capable and have a wide network of contacts. Even my father and the emperor also value you. When it comes to the last resort, they don’t care about you. It’s a good deal to be a helper or threaten you..."

Speaking of this, Princess Gao Yang closed her eyes in pain, and muttered: "Mu Bai, am I right?"

For a time, Qin Mubai was speechless. He didn't expect that Princess Gao Yang, who had never asked about this kind of military current political affairs, could actually see such a complicated problem sharply.

It's really worthy of being a child born in the royal family and growing up in political misery! Even if she doesn't catch a cold and is not good at military and political things, she still has a superhuman insight and insight.

Seeing Qin Mubai not speaking, Princess Gao Yang's expression became more painful, her lips trembled, and there seemed to be some crying in her voice: "Brother, uncle, why are you so cruel, wanting to drag Mu Bai into the water?" /

"Don't think too much, Ling'er." Qin Mubai hurriedly took her into her arms, patted her on the back and whispered in comfort, and said, "Anyway, their strategy was killed in advance. Okay. When there are savvy figures like your uncle Jiangxia Wang and Wang Wu, your third brother, they detected the change in advance and made arrangements to smash the conspiracy of King Qi and others. Now, things have not evolved to the point where they are out of control. We are all here. Try to minimize the impact of this incident."

"There is no impermeable wall, such a big thing, there are many people in the know, how can I hide it?" Princess Gao Yang frowned and said worriedly, "Actually, I think it's better than hiding. It’s better to let my brother admit his mistakes honestly, and go to my father’s emperor to sincerely regret it. I understand my father’s character, and it’s best not to play tricks on him. If you make a mistake, it’s best to admit it honestly. It's impossible. If he is discovered by his active detection, the consequences will be more serious!"

Qin Mubai shook his head embarrassedly: "I don't know how to act like this? But the problem is, your brother is still stubborn. He keeps saying that he doesn't regret it, and he takes all the blame In my own head, I said that I don’t want to betray your uncle. Hey! My third brother and I persuaded one after another, but it was useless. Now it’s a headache!"

"Let me go!" Princess Gao Yang said softly, but firmly.

Qin Mubai was silent for a moment, and thought: Li You, a person who is hard and hard, does not eat water and rice. The only weakness in his heart is his mother and sister. Perhaps the persuasion of Princess Gao Yang would be really useful. At this point, it is impossible to exonerate Li You. The best result is that Li Youcheng felt contrite and pushed more guilt to Yin Hongzhi's head. In that case, he still has a chance to survive. Li Shimin’s behavior is indeed just like what Princess Gao Yang said, the emperor is majestic and can allow others to make mistakes, but cannot tolerate others' deception and concealment. If Li You can take the initiative to admit his mistakes as early as possible, there may be a silver lining.

"Okay, let you try it." Qin Mubai said, "but you have to promise me, do what you can, don't do stupid things."

"What stupid thing can I do?" Princess Gao Yang murmured, "My heart is almost broken now. My brother standing on the edge of the cliff, the brother who once wanted to drag you into the water, to him, I really don’t know if it’s sad or angry. Mu Bai, do you know how sad I am now? I really want to cry, but I just can’t cry."

"Hey...this matter is tossing, the most hurt is you and Concubine Yin De. Remember, don't let your mother know about this matter, otherwise..."

"I know." Princess Gao Yang became extremely depressed, nodded gently, and said, "Shall we go back now? Where is my brother now?" "It's at your third brother's house. Go away. Come on!"

The two returned to the carriage and headed for the Governor's Mansion. Princess Gaoyang remained silent along the way, nestling tightly in Qin Mubai's arms like a wounded bird, motionless.

When we got off the car at the Cishi Mansion, Princess Gao Yang looked at the tall door lintel and took a deep breath, as if she had gathered courage, and said, "Go, go in!"

Qin Mubai lightly embraced her waist and walked in with her. At this time, he had a feeling - this young and weak woman had a strength and resilience in her heart that ordinary people couldn't match. Maybe it was inherited from her mother, maybe it was the experience of the past two years that made him mature beyond age.

In short, Qin Mubai looked at her with admiration in just one day. In his eyes, the princess Gao Yang at this moment was no longer the naughty little girl who used to be. Her wisdom and courage were deeply buried in her heart, and it was not easy to notice, but she did not lose much to Wu Meiniang.

Li Ke was eating dinner, and when he saw Qin Mubai and Princess Gao Yang approaching embracing each other, he was stunned when he wrapped a mouthful of rice in his mouth, and almost forgot to chew.

Because he saw Princess Goyang’s "peculiar" expression, it was far from usual. He vaguely realized... this girl, perhaps already knew!

"You are here! It just so happens to have dinner together!" Li Ke said warmly.

"Okay, I am hungry." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "Gao Yang, shall we eat first?"

"My brother should be eating now, right?" Princess Gao Yang smiled and said, "I know him, I can’t eat anything in my heart, so he has always been thin. Mu Bai, you accompany the third brother to eat Okay, how about going to eat with my brother?"

Li Ke's expression suddenly changed, and he said in amazement: "Gao Yang, do you know all about it?"

"Yes!" Princess Gao Yang nodded and said sincerely and seriously, "Brother, please allow me to see my brother, okay?"

Li Ke glanced at Qin Mubai, sighed lightly, and said, "Since he has already brought you here, can I refuse? I will send a maid to guide you, go!"

"Thanks three brothers!" Princess Gao Yang gave a bow and walked out quietly with a maid.

"Mu Bai, what did you do? How can you let her know?" Li Ke said with some annoyance as soon as Princess Gao Yang left.

Qin Mubai sat down, sighed, shook his head and sighed: "We all seem to underestimate her. I'm not that stupid. I want to take the initiative to tell her these things."

Li Ke also shook his head helplessly, and said, "That's right. This girl is big and clever! If she smells something, she has a way to find out. Forget it, no blame. You. Actually... Maybe she can really persuade Li You?"

"As far as this is concerned, I can only hope so much..."

"Forget it, don't say it. Let's eat first. Later we two will go to see what will happen."

After the meal, Qin Mubai and Li Ke went to the back house where Li You was under house arrest, but Princess Gao Yang still did not come out. The two of them stuck to the door and listened for a while, and they heard their low voices from inside. So they waited patiently outside.

After a long time, it was dark before Princess Gao Yang opened the door and walked out.

Her face is very haggard, as if she was seriously ill. Qin Mubai immediately walked to her shoulders in distress, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay..." Princess Gao Yang smiled pale with a hint of joy, and said, "I persuaded my brother!"

"Really?" Qin Mubai and Li Ke were overjoyed.

"Yes." Princess Gao Yang nodded gently, motioning for the two to go further, before saying, "Actually, my brother is also hard-hearted and soft-hearted. Even now, he is still worried about his uncle's safety. I just Tell him, if you regret your mistakes and beg your father to be gentle, maybe everyone's results will be better; if you continue to be so stubborn, he and your uncle will be a dead end, and it will hurt my mother and my concubine. He agreed."

Li Ke nodded and asked: "How did he agree?"

"I said, I will accompany him to Beijing and confess his mistake to his father. He is willing." Princess Gao Yang said.

Qin Mubai frowned: "But now your uncle is still missing. It's just your brother to admit his mistake...I'm afraid it won't work. Unless we can arrest Yin Hongzhi as soon as possible!"

"No need..." Princess Gao Yang's face became paler, her lips quivered and she murmured, "Such a big thing, it must be deadly... If you must choose, I hope it can be less Die. After all, they are all my dearest relatives!"

As soon as these words were said, Qin Mubai and Li Ke couldn't help but trembled in their hearts. The meaning of what Princess Gao Yang said was that she had already figured out that she wanted her uncle to bear all the guilt, thereby alleviating Li You's fault... For a long time, Princess Gao Yang and her uncle Yin Hongzhi have a very good relationship. Since childhood, she will spend a long time in Yin Hongzhi's home in Bingzhou every year, even more than in Chang'an.

The decision she made now seems... tragic!

Qin Mubai gently patted Princess Gao Yang on the shoulder, not knowing what to say for a while. She just shook her head gently, showing a strong smile: "I'm fine, don't worry about me. In fact, my brother understands in his heart, but he just doesn't want to accept this fact. No matter what he does, there are only two in the end. One is that my uncle died and he was born, and my mother and my concubine were less involved; the other was that he and my uncle died together, and my mother and my concubine only had pain in the second half of their lives. Comparing the two, he chose the former. Not because he was afraid of death or unfeeling, but...the reality is so, there is no other choice."

Li Ke looked at Princess Gao Yang in surprise and nodded: "Go Yang, you are really grown up."

Princess Gao Yang looked up at the gloomy sky and murmured: "Actually, I have grown up a long time ago, but you didn’t pay attention. Now I only hope that I will not be like my mother and concubine. I'm getting old..."

Qin Mubai has never faced such a choice-two loved ones, at least one must die.

Actually, everyone knows how to choose, that is, it is best to have one less death.

But at this time, how should I cool my heart like a knife? How can I comfort it? How can the pain left be healed?

And this matter is happening to the weak and young Princess Goyang.

At this moment, she didn't even cry. Perhaps the sentence was justified, and the grief is no greater than the sadness. How will her immature heart endure this inhuman torture and harm?

Qin Mubai and Li Ke both fell silent. The eyes that looked at Princess Gaoyang were full of pity and sadness.

Princess Gao Yang smiled calmly and said, "What's wrong with you? You are all big men, aren't you as rational and strong as I am? This is the end of the matter, and there is no choice. That's it. You give me Make proper arrangements, I want to set off as soon as possible and accompany my brother to Chang'an!"

"I will accompany you." Qin Mubai said firmly.

"No." Princess Gaoyang refused, saying, "Xiangyang is holding a sacrificial ceremony. You are shouldering heavy responsibilities. How can you walk away? The same is true for the third brother. You can send some capable people to **** you, trust me, There will be no problem."

Qin Mubai and Li Ke looked at each other, but nodded helplessly.

"We will arrange for you."

Later, Qin Mubai sent Princess Gaoyang back to Jiangxia Wang Xingyuan. Along the way, Princess Gao Yang was still taciturn, as if she was extremely tired, and fell asleep in Qin Mubai's arms.

When I arrived at Jiang Xia Wang Xingyuan, Qin Mubai sent Princess Gaoyang in. She didn't say much, but said hello to Li Daozong, and went back to the room early to rest.

Li Daozong’s eyes are so hot. Before Qin Mubai could speak, he said: "Does Ling'er know all about it?"

"Hmm..." Qin Mubai nodded, and told Li Daozong about the causes and consequences of what had just happened.

"Hey...the one who should have come can't escape. God's will is like this. How can people do it?" Li Daozong sighed and said slowly, "Ling'er, in fact, is much smarter and more mature than she looks. Many. In contrast, Li You’s shameless elder brother is not as good as his sister’s in case. In fact, the king had expected earlier that perhaps only Linger could persuade Li You to admit his mistakes. In that case, the situation would still exist. With room for relaxation, at best, let that **** Yin Hongzhi be a dead son to eliminate this disaster. But if you do this... it would be too cruel for Ling'er."

"Yes! In fact, everyone knows that Yin Hongzhi is bound to die; Li You will not die, but there is still a discussion." Qin Mubai said, "No matter what the outcome, the most injured party will be Gao Yang. The princess and the concubine of Yinde."

"I have pity for the mother and daughter, hey..." Li Daozong sighed helplessly and shook his head, and said softly, "Mu Bai, in the future, be kind to Linger."

"I will." Qin Mubai nodded, feeling heavy.

"Right. Going to Beijing must be properly and carefully arranged." Li Daozong said, "Yin Hongzhi has always been at large. This old fox is not so incompetent. Also, don't ignore his ability to influence Li You and Gao Yang. Actually speaking, these brothers and sisters spent more than half of their time with Yin Hongzhi since they were young. It is not an exaggeration to say that they were raised by Yin Hongzhi since childhood. Chi’s status in the minds of their siblings is extraordinary."

"Yes, I understand." Qin Mubai nodded and said, "The prince means that I am a little worried that Yin Hongzhi will appear halfway, and the demon will make trouble?"

"Precautions are of course the best." Li Daozong said, "Actually, it is safest and safest to **** Ling'er. But at this juncture, you can't get away. Then you have to choose and dispatch. Some of the most capable people are responsible for escorting along the way."

"Okay. I'll handle this matter carefully." Qin Mubai nodded solemnly.

Li Daozong cut his back and cut his hands, and said with a solemn expression on his thick eyebrows, and said leisurely: "His Majesty the Emperor has always hated most of his next generation of brothers who are not in harmony with each other... Li You, Li You, you are really crazy! It’s not a pity for you to die, so why do you hurt these poor people and follow you?...Hey!"

Qin Mubai's heart couldn't help but tightened, thinking of his previous father, Qin Shubao, and seemed to have said something similar to himself: After the change from Xuanwumen, the four words'cannibalism' almost became Li Shi A haze and taboo in the hearts of the people. From then on, he was extremely worried and hated that his children followed the "Xuanwumen"......

Does that also mean that this time Li You's visit to Chang'an is not optimistic?
