The father and son were like mirrors in their hearts. Hou Dieyi was not worried about his son, but worried about his own interests and whether the Hou family could gain a foothold in the court in the future.
As for Junfeng, he didn't see how worried Hou Dieyi was.
If he was really worried, he wouldn't have listened to his servant's coaxing and thought of coming to him to inquire about his attitude towards Xia Junfeng, his son.
"Her attitude makes her look more realistic, doesn't it?" Xia Huafeng reminded with a smile.
"well."
Master Xia sighed heavily.
The wife he married would continue to pamper her even if she had a headache. Who allowed her to give birth to the child Junfeng?
"I can't get out of this situation now. Send the news to Junfeng."
"I see."
Xia Huafeng nodded, had already changed into his servant's clothes, and left the study.
…
That night.
In a ruin-like house in the West City, under a dark night sky, a man was sitting, holding a green lantern in his hand.
"scare!"
Xia Huafeng flew from outside the hospital and saw the green face at one glance. He was so frightened that he almost couldn't lift himself up in mid-air and fell down.
Fortunately, his Qinggong was good enough, and he managed to stabilize his body after falling to the ground, preventing him from falling into a dog's mouth.
"Xia Junfeng, who are you trying to scare to death?"
After taking a deep breath, he clutched his thumping chest and came to Luying.
Fortunately, it was him who came. He really doubted that if their father came over, he would be frightened and die on the spot. This is not the way to pretend to be a ghost, right?
"Today is not the Lantern Festival. I happened to see someone selling lanterns outside, so I bought one." Xia Junfeng said quietly.
Xia Huafeng: "..."
You damn well know that today is the Lantern Festival, why are you so embarrassed to buy a lantern that only people buy during the Ghost Festival?
But he didn't say these words, and he didn't bother to argue with his biological brother.
"Brother, how is your investigation going?" Xia Junfeng blew out the lantern and asked him softly.
Xia Huafeng shook his head.
"I didn't dare to investigate further, but the death of the Queen Mother was not simple. Perhaps it can be said that it is not certain whether the Queen Mother is dead or not, because no one has seen the body of the Queen Mother except the emperor and the attendants in the Queen Mother's Palace.
As for the attendants in the Queen Mother's palace, because they were not in a good position to take care of the Queen Mother, they were all ordered by the Emperor to follow the Queen Mother."
"Kill them all and leave no one alive?"
Even though he had long thought of how cruel the old emperor was, he did not expect that the old emperor could actually kill everyone in Hegong.
You know, the number of attendants in the Queen Mother's Palace is the largest in the palace after the Emperor. Even in the Queen's Palace, there are not that many.
There were so many attendants who were killed as soon as they were told. How could life and death be decided just by the opening and closing of the old emperor's mouth?
"It would be strange to have one left."
Xia Huafeng sneered, who doesn't know about their emperor?
"Although I couldn't find out anything about the Queen Mother's side, I found clues about the Great Prince. Wasn't the Great Prince in charge of the Suxi Army? It is said that the Tiger Talisman of his Suxi Army was lost."
"lost?!"
Xia Junfeng almost shouted.
Fortunately, he remembered that he was wanted now, so he suppressed his voice.
