Duan Tian's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Although his relationship with King Bei had not broken down and turned against each other, it was not very friendly. Moreover, with Qing Tian's participation, the relationship between the two parties had undoubtedly become tense.
At this juncture, King Bei suddenly came to the door, which seemed a bit difficult to understand.
"Did he say something?" Duan Tian said loudly to the guard outside.
"No!" the guard replied, and after thinking for a while he added: "Since the general has an honored guest, can you refuse to see him?"
"No, just tell him to wait in the main hall!" Duan Tian said immediately.
The majestic King of the North came to visit him, but if he refused to see him, it would show that he was a great general who was too petty.
At this time, Qingtian also stood up, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Father, do you feel that this King of the North is here for me?"
Duan Tian frowned, then shook his head slightly: "It doesn't look like that."
After saying this, he shut his mouth. In fact, he still had the second half of the sentence left to say, that is, the majestic King of the North, there is no point in coming here for a nobody like you.
Although Duan Tian also admitted that Qing Tian was by no means an ordinary person, before tonight, he was still an unknown person. Whether it was the generals in Tianyong Pavilion or the General's Mansion, not many people knew about Qing Tian's true direct lineage.
"Then foster father, do I need to avoid him?" Qingtian asked.
"What do you think?" Duantian threw the question back.
Qingtian smiled slightly, and then said: "I have wanted to meet this legendary Northern King for a long time. It is said that in the North some time ago, this man once said that if the general does not act, he will replace him. I am very happy.
Like to see if he is really as powerful as the legend says!"
After saying this, Qingtian walked out. In fact, he did not finish the second half of the sentence. That is, if he avoids it at this moment, wouldn't it appear that he is afraid of him, the King of the North? This kind of thing is detrimental to his ambition.
He would never do it.
Duan Tian didn't say anything. Of course, not saying anything would be acquiescence. The two of them walked out of the study and walked through an exquisite corridor to the main hall in front.
At this time, Ye Feng was leading Xiao Chuanqiu, Sima Zhantian and Leng Wuming through the pavilions and walked in.
"I didn't know that the King of the North was coming. I missed the reception at a distance and the reception at a distance. Please forgive me!" Duan Tian Da Ma Jin Dao walked up quickly, his face full of enthusiasm.
Of course, this is just polite talk. If the relationship between the two parties is really close and friendly, and given the status of the Northern King, General Duantian should come to the door to greet him in person, instead of just talking verbally.
Of course, Ye Feng would not tell the truth, and said with a smile on his face: "The general of Zhenguo is being polite. He came uninvited late at night, so please don't take it personally."
"Where are you, please come in!" Duan Tian said, waving sideways to welcome him into the main hall, and then everyone sat down according to their seniority.
At this time, the servants had already brought good tea one after another. Ye Feng picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then slowly put it down without opening his mouth.
Duantian, a tall man with a tall figure and a face as heavy as a jujube, was impatient, so he couldn't help but ask: "King Bei came to visit late at night, so he definitely didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but what's the matter?"
Ye Feng smiled slightly and said: "The general is quick to talk to others, so I will tell you directly."
"King Bei, it doesn't matter if you say so!" Duantian laughed, and from beginning to end he made no intention of introducing Qingtian who was sitting beside him.
Of course, Ye Feng didn't ask. He said straightforwardly: "I came here tonight just for one thing. The Zhang family, the Lu family, the Liang family, the Zhong family... of course, there are many families that have not yet surfaced."
Duan Tian frowned and asked, "What does King Bei mean by this?"
Ye Feng did not answer. He always only asked questions and seldom answered, even if the person sitting across from him was General Zhenguo. He said in a deep voice: "General Zhenguo should know what I mean."
Duan Tian was stunned and looked at Ye Feng intently. The expression on his face changed uncertainly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. During the whole process, Qingtian, who was sitting next to him, just watched coldly and did not interrupt.
After a long time, Duancai said: "I know what you mean, but do you know that if you really decide to do this, the entire imperial capital will probably start a bloody storm, and even shake the foundation of Xuanyuan Kingdom."
Ye Feng laughed loudly and said: "The general's words are serious. As long as there is a general in the imperial capital, there will be no chaos, and there will be no turmoil in the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Besides, those are just insignificant little characters to the general.
, to say they are small roles is an exaggeration, they are simply worms in the country!"
Duantian fell into silence, thinking about the powerful relationship between this, while Qingtian on the side was also watching quietly, watching the game between these two important figures of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Qingtian knew very well that the families that Northern King Ye Feng mentioned just now, such as the Zhang family, the Lu family, and the Zhong family, all follow the general secretly. In other words, they are all people in the general's circle.
The purpose of Ye Feng's coming tonight has been made clear, that is, to disturb these families, and at the same time to ask the general to express his stance!
Duantian thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Ignore the other families for now, but the Zhang family is a very important figure in Zhengtiansi. You have to think clearly about the consequences."
Ye Feng raised his head and stared straight at Duan Tian, saying word by word: "I don't want to talk in circles with you anymore. I came here tonight just to ask what the general's attitude is!"
Duan Tian did not answer, but said directly: "King Bei really insists on touching them?"
Ye Feng sneered: "With the defeat of the capital a year ago, the outcome is doomed."
"What if I, the general, don't agree?" Duan Tian suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Feng meaningfully.
Ye Feng chuckled and said: "Come tonight, I just know how to say "General", I don't really have to agree with you. In other words, it doesn't matter to me whether you agree or not!"
After saying this, Ye Feng stood up.
Duan Tian's eyes suddenly condensed, and two cold rays shot out in an instant. The temperature in the reception hall immediately dropped a lot, and the atmosphere became tense.
At this time, Qingtian suddenly sneered and said: "The King of the North is really arrogant, but don't forget, this is the imperial capital, not your northern territory!"
Ye Feng suddenly raised his head, stared at Qingtian, and said word by word: "I was talking to the general, and other people dared to speak. If it weren't for the great contribution that Zhentian Guozhu had to Xuanyuan Kingdom in the past, I would kill you now!"
Qingtian's face suddenly sank and he clenched his fists tightly. He was so hard that his palms even made a banging sound.
When Duan Tian saw this, he was worried that the situation was going to be bad, so he quickly stood up and said: "Since King Bei is so candid, I will also ask Bei King a question. If you want to attack the Zhang and Lu family, do you plan to use my identity as the king or your private identity?"
?”
Ye Feng sneered and said: "If I wanted to use my identity as the Northern King, I would not come tonight. At this moment, my millions of northern troops must have been assembled outside the imperial capital!"
After all, the other party is the general who governs the country, so Ye Feng changed his tone at this point and softened: "After all, you and I have special identities, and private hatred is private hatred after all. If the method of national hatred is used, then I am still qualified to be the general."
This King of the North."
Duantian nodded after hearing this and said: "Northern King is righteous. In this case, I can promise you not to act in an act of national hatred, but the Zhang and Lu family have old friends with me after all, so I can't do anything about it."
Ask, does the King of the North understand what I mean?"
Ye Feng didn't answer, turned around and left. Anyway, his intention had been conveyed, which was tantamount to politeness first and then attack. As for what the other party did and to what extent it was done, it was not his concern, and of course he didn't care either.
In the rainy night, Ye Feng and his entourage came and went as fast as they could. It wasn't until Ye Feng completely disappeared from sight that Duan Tian regained his composure and turned around and said, "What, what do you think of the Northern King who is currently in the prime of Xuanyuan Kingdom?"
how?"
Qingtian said in a deep voice: "Yes, he is indeed unparalleled in domineering. Even the current general who governs the country dares to speak directly. It's a bit interesting. I suddenly feel a bit interesting."
"Interesting?" Duan Tian frowned.
Qingtian sneered and said word by word: "Because only such a person is qualified to be my opponent, otherwise it will be meaningless at all."
Duan Tian smiled and nodded in acquiescence. He was already old and no longer ambitious, so naturally he wanted to train a successor. It was obvious that the person in front of him was the most ideal candidate.
Qingtian asked: "Father, what are you going to do next? Are you going to have a complete showdown with the guy from the north?"
Duan Tian waved his hand and said: "No, it's not yet time. Since both sides have made it clear just now that they are only treating each other with personal hatred and not hatred of the country, then I can't take action, and neither can you."
"Why, it's not time for me yet. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to test how capable the other party is." Qingtian joked.
"Don't worry, now is not the time. You can take this opportunity to take a look at this person's trump card. When your adoptive father makes some plans, you will be able to take over and change your name."
Duan Tian snorted slightly, and then said: "Although I can't take action directly on this matter, I still need to work on it a little bit. If it can be solved smoothly, it would be best. If not, at least he will lose his arms and legs.
.”
When Duan Tian said this, his expression completely darkened, and even his eyes were filled with frost.
