Chapter 358: Dead Ring

"Huh? So is Mr. Guo here to see us off? That's really a shame!" Tang Mao looked surprised. Needless to say, he was obviously pretending. If Guo Jia really said anything, this person would be a bit easy to deceive.

"Haha, what did Mr. Tang say? Everyone has such a good relationship, so naturally they have to come and give it away." There is no way. Since Tang Mao pretended to be crazy, Guo Jia could only hold on. Anyway, Guo Jia was not in a hurry at all. Guo Jia didn't believe that it would have any meaning to Tang Mao if he kept using it like this?

"But I just saw that everyone else seemed to be here to see Lord Guo. Why? Isn't Lord Guo leaving?" Tang Mao couldn't help but say, and directly brought the situation back.

"Of course I have to leave, but I'd better send Mr. Tang and his party to you." Guo Jia insisted on insisting.

"Since that's the case, Lord Guo, don't be polite. Everyone is traveling with each other anyway, so why don't you give it to me?" Tang Mao said suddenly.

Guo Jia's eyelids twitched.

“Walk together?!”

In other words, Tang Mao didn't come to see him off at all, but wanted to go with Guo Jia? Whether it was true or false, Tang Mao had never said this in advance! Of course, there was no need to explain to Guo Jia specifically about other people's affairs. But Tang Mao chose such a day and got together with Guo Jia, which was definitely intentional!

"Yes, after all, I am from Yingchuan. I had to come out to be an official at the beginning. Now I have no official position and I am getting older. I should consider the return of my fallen leaves." Tang Mao said.

In other words, he did not come to see Guo Jia off. Did Tang Mao plan to move his family back to his hometown Yingchuan to live?!

"But Yingchuan's current situation is not safe!" Guo Jia couldn't help but say. Because it is located in a sensitive area, it is the intersection of several major vassal forces. Therefore, Yingchuan can be said to be in a state of no-council status. It is definitely very dangerous to move back at this time!

Only after Cao Cao welcomes Emperor Xian to Xudu in the future will Yingchuan become a safe place and even be more prosperous than before! Tang Mao is planning to go back now. What exactly did he think?

"Is Yangzhou safe now?" Tang Mao asked back. He was keen and obviously knew very well. Because of Yuan Shu's arrival, Yangzhou would definitely become a place of right and wrong in the future and would no longer be peaceful.

"Of course, I didn't want to go back to Yingchuan directly. It seems that Yingchuan will be occupied by Cao Gong soon, so I plan to stay in Yanzhou for a while before talking about it." Tang Mao said.

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows, and now he fully understood. Tang Mao was not here to see him off or to travel with him. He was completely dependent on Guo Jia! It seems that he is going to move to Yanzhou to be a neighbor with Guo Jia!

As a result, Guo Jia subconsciously glanced at the carriage over there, and Tang Ji was back? Perhaps as an ancient woman, even a neighbor, Guo Jia would never meet as casually as before. And now Tang Ji's identity has been exposed. If Guo Jia had no legitimate reason, it would not be possible for him to run to Tang Ji's house all the time. But whether he could meet or not, he would live next door next door, which was completely different from living thousands of miles away!

But I just said that if Guo Jia went back to Yanzhou directly on this trip, there was nothing to say. The key is that Guo Jia still had a confidential task this time. Although Guo Jia could completely trust Tang Mao and brought Tang Mao with him, is Guo Jia the only one in charge this time?

OK. Maybe Guo Jia is easy to deal with as a person named Xi Zhicai. But don’t forget that Cao Song’s whereabouts can be speculated to be exposed. Although everyone can think of the reason, if Guo Jia happened to pull an outsider at this time, it would be easy for some people with ulterior motives to suspect that Tang Mao leaked the secret. This is very unfavorable to both Tang Mao and Guo Jia!

Thinking of this, Guo Jia suddenly felt a sudden heart, and immediately came forward enthusiastically, holding Tang Mao's hand and smiling,

"Welcome, warm welcome! I'm familiar with the place in Yanzhou. Mr. Tang wants to find a temporary place to stay, so I can do it for me!"

Before, Guo Jia could not find an excuse to refuse Xi Zhicai. Now Tang Mao's sudden appearance gives Guo Jia a very suitable reason to avoid such a dangerous journey!

"Haha, then I'll bother Lord Guo." Tang Mao smiled ambiguously. Obviously, he read a different meaning from Guo Jia's enthusiasm.

Tang Mao has always firmly believed that Guo Jia likes her daughter Tang Ji; and Tang Mao also firmly believed that his daughter Tang Ji had feelings for Guo Jia. Therefore, this time Tang Mao moved was due to the fact that the situation in Yangzhou was gradually wrong, but that was just a motivation to decide Tang Mao’s move. As for moving to Yanzhou and as for traveling with Guo Jia, it was obvious that Tang Mao was trying to match Guo Jia and Tang Ji.

Although Tang Ji is now looking determined not to remarry, Tang Mao believes that as long as Guo Jia is willing to marry, this matter may gradually ease. Therefore, Tang Mao must first do the job of connecting Guo Jia.

However, because he did not know Guo Jia enough, Tang Mao made a fundamental mistake. That is, Tang Mao thought that the reason why Guo Jia refused to marry Tang Ji and refused to let Tang Ji marry others was because Guo Jia was a full loyal minister of the Han Dynasty! Therefore, he had an inexplicable awe towards Tang Ji, the princess, and did not dare to blaspheme!

To give an "inappropriate" example, it is like Brother Guan's respect for his two sisters-in-law, which is a manifestation of absolute loyalty. (Are you hinting at what is it? Give me a pure childhood!)

Unfortunately, Tang Ji knew very well that Guo Jia was not a loyal minister in the Han Dynasty. Even Guo Jia was a arrogant and unrestrained person who was very weak in the idea of ​​imperial power. Therefore, Tang Ji and her father had completely different views on Guo Jia's actions. It was precisely because Tang Ji felt an inexplicable emotion that could not be suppressed! Because Tang Ji knew very well that Guo Jia was not respecting the imperial power, but respecting her Tang Ji!

This kind of respect for women's personality is something Tang Ji never experienced even when she was a royal concubine!

Therefore, there has been a dead ring between Guo Jia and Tang Ji. This ring cannot be untied, whether it is Tang Mao or themselves. If Guo Jia is willing to marry Tang Ji, then he will completely violate his principles; and once Guo Jia is willing to marry Tang Ji, it means that he has lost respect for Tang Ji. Will Tang Ji still be willing to marry him?

Tang Ji values ​​the Guo Jia who will never marry her, and Guo Jia cares about the Tang Ji who will never marry anyone! Sometimes, the feelings between people are so subtle. Once this balance is broken, the relationship between the two will completely collapse.

"That's great!" After learning the news, Diao Chan was so excited that she ran to the carriage behind and went to "talk about love" with Tang Ji.

Cao Xi's face was obviously dissatisfied.
Chapter completed!
