Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty Five [Unshared] (Part 2)
Hu Xiaotian looked at Li Mingju with some sympathy. From the first time Hu Xiaotian saw Li Mingju, he knew that this man was a smart man. His inference was close to the truth. If Li Changxing was not the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and if King Bohai had not handed over this case to him
, If he hadn't been so serious about his work, he might not have ended up in this situation. Li Changxing had no enemies, and he didn't do anything wrong. His fault was just that he was in the wrong position.
Li Mingju said with emotion: "My father is loyal to the emperor, patriotic, self-denying and devoted to the public service. I didn't expect that it would end like this. He arranged for me to leave Bohai a few days ago. He had already expected that someone would be detrimental to him... This foolish emperor is so vicious!"
"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Although he doesn't care about your father's life or death, he is definitely not the one who did it himself. According to the information I have, Mr. Li's death was not directly caused by him."
Li Mingju's handsome face became distorted due to pain. He wanted to avenge his father and repay the blood debt from all his enemies, but it was impossible for him to do it with his own strength. Li Mingju wanted to avenge his father.
His eyes turned to Hu Xiaotian, and his instinct told him that the person in front of him could help him realize this wish. Li Mingju said: "Did you come to Bohai Country to thwart their conspiracy?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Li, your wisest choice now is to leave Bohai as soon as possible. Mr. Li has been killed, and you will not pose any threat to them for the time being. I believe Mr. Li also hopes that you can spend your life safely.
"
Li Mingju's mood suddenly became excited: "As a son, if I can ignore the revenge of killing my father, then I am worse than an animal. What qualifications do I, Li Mingju, have to live in this world?" His chest heaved violently.
He stood, his eyes burning with angry flames.
Hu Xiaotian looked at Li Mingju calmly. He could understand Li Mingju's mood at this time.
His gaze angered Li Mingju even more, and Li Mingju growled: "I know, in your eyes, I'm just a helpless scholar, I'm just a waste, without any value!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Li has misunderstood. I appreciate Brother Li's character and understand your mood. However, when taking revenge, you must consider the long term and never be impulsive. Otherwise, you will only lose your life innocently."
Li Mingju said: "I know, I will be patient, but I will not let go of any opportunity. Since they want to use Yuan Tianzhao's case to create an article, I will not let them do it. The entire Bohai State, when it comes to the criminal code,
There are few people who are more familiar with it than me. I know every case my father examines. I know every plant and tree in the Criminal Department. There are some people in the Criminal Department who owe my father a favor.
, I can get it back from them."
Hu Xiaotian's eyes lit up. He understood what Li Mingju meant.
Li Mingju took a step forward and said, "You must want to rescue them, right? I can help you!"
Hu Xiaotian reached out and patted Li Mingju's shoulder gently, and whispered: "Thank you for burying Master Li. When the time comes, I will find you!"
Li Ming lifted his weight and nodded, pressing his lips tightly to suppress the tears that burst out of his eyes. He would not hesitate to sacrifice his life, he wanted revenge!
When Hu Xiaotian returned to Zhichun Garden, the manager Xiao Lizhi hurriedly greeted her and said in a low voice: "Master, the eldest princess went out early this morning and she hasn't come back yet."
Hu Xiaotian nodded. Everything is under his control. If everything goes well, Xue Lingjun should have been taken away by Yan Tianlu's people. Also taken away with her was Yan Dongqing, the eldest princess of Bohai. However, the treatment of the two of them must be inevitable.
It's a world of difference.
Xiao Lizhi said: "What should I do?"
Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "Wait a minute! Where are those Golden Scale Guards?"
Xiao Lizhi said: "I said I went out to meet the princess, but I haven't come back yet."
Hu Xiaotian said to Xiao Lizhi: "Let the brothers eat and drink enough. There is a play to be performed tonight."
Xiao Lizhi smiled and said: "Master, just give me orders, we all obey your orders."
At this time, the sound of cars and horses could be heard outside the door. However, it was an old friend who came to visit. The person who came to visit was Hu Zhongyang, a businessman from Dongliang County who had just arrived in Wanghai City. He had already contacted Mangjiao Island in advance, so he learned about it
The whereabouts of Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Zhongyang admired Hu Xiaotian's elusiveness and set off first, but in the end he still fell behind Hu Xiaotian. The city lord of Dongliang County was really unpredictable.
Hu Xiaotian had people prepare food and wine, invited Hu Zhongyang to take a seat, and after everyone had retired, Hu Zhongyang stood up in a hurry, bowed deeply to Hu Xiaotian and said, "Zhongyang, please see me, my lord!" He sincerely admired Hu Xiaotian, and this sentence showed his true feelings as soon as he said it.
His attitude is that the only hero in his mind is Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Brother Zhongyang, why are you so polite? Sit down quickly and let's have a drink."
Hu Zhongyang just sat down and drank a glass of wine with Hu Xiaotian. His eyes fell on the table and saw a gilt hollow flying phoenix. His eyes widened and he exclaimed: "This is not Dayong's phoenix dance."
Nine-day token?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and nodded: "Brother Zhongyang is really knowledgeable."
Hu Zhongyang said: "This is the token of the Empress Dowager Dayong! Seeing this thing is like seeing the Empress Dowager in person. Where did my lord get it?" After asking, he immediately realized that he was a bit talkative and said with a smile: "It's not convenient for my lord to say so.
Already."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's nothing inconvenient. This thing was temporarily entrusted to me by Princess Dayong for safekeeping. I, Hu Dafu, am just an ordinary businessman. I don't have any hard goods to back me up. How can I let these officials from the Bohai Kingdom
Do they buy it?"
Hu Zhongyang said: "This phoenix dancing in the sky token was specially made by Xue Shengkang of the Great Yong Dynasty for his mother. I have only heard that I have never seen it. It is said that the Empress Dowager Jiang of the Great Yong Dynasty has never used it."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Of course the Queen Mother didn't need it, so she gave it to her precious daughter." There are limitations in any era. A token can scare many people. Hu Xiaotian understands that it is not the token itself that can scare people.
But imperial power.
He hooked his fingers at Hu Zhongyang, and Hu Zhongyang approached him: "What are your orders, my lord?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Wanghai City will soon fall into turmoil. I want you to arrange an escape route as soon as possible."
Hu Zhongyang nodded and said: "Don't worry, Lord, I will do it as soon as possible."
Hu Xiaotian added: "You must not let anyone know about your retreat arrangement, including the Mangjiao Island side."
Hu Zhongyang was slightly startled. Wasn't Hu Xiaotian cooperating with Yan Tianlu now? Could it be that he didn't trust Yan Tianlu?
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's not that I'm worried about Island Master Yan, but he has so many people that not all of them can be trusted. We must be fully prepared."
Hu Zhongyang said: "My lord, I admire your foresight and foresight!"
There was a rush of footsteps outside, and Hu Xiaotian said casually: "It's time!" He picked up the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Token from the table, stood up and opened the door. Xiao Lizhi appeared outside the door: "Master
, the Golden Scale Guard who went to inquire about the news is back."
Hu Xiaotian said: "How to say?"
Xiao Lizhi said in a low voice: "They said that the eldest princess went out early in the morning to attend an appointment with Zou Yong, but she has not come back until now. I went to Jingshui Xingyuan to ask, and Zou Yong has not returned yet from going out for business."
Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "I'm afraid it's not that she didn't come back, but that she deliberately concealed the whereabouts of the eldest princess, Manager Xiao!"
"exist!"
"Call the brothers from the Golden Scale Guard. I want to go to Jingshui Garden in person to see if the eldest princess is there!"
Hu Xiaotian led more than 20 people, including the Golden Scale Guards, to the outside of Jingshui Garden. From a distance, he saw that the door was closed. Hu Xiaotian winked, and one of the Golden Scale Guards got off his horse, came to the door, and grabbed the door knocker.
Knocking loudly.
Not long after, the door opened a small crack, and a warrior revealed an eye and said coldly: "It's dark at night. Who is making noise outside?"
The golden-scaled guard said: "We are here to see Mr. Zou!"
Before he finished speaking, the door was closed tightly, and a voice came out from inside and said: "My young master is not here."
Jinlinwei was rejected and turned to Hu Xiaotian helplessly.
Hu Xiaotian snorted coldly, got off the horse, and walked towards the door step by step. He glanced at the mighty bronze lion in front of the door, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips. He stretched out his hand, channeled his inner strength, and used both arms to lift the heavy lion.
He picked up the thousand-jin copper lion and slowly raised it above his head. A group of Golden Scale Guards and his family were stunned by the scene in front of them, but when they saw Hu Xiaotian raised his hand and exerted force, the copper lion flew away towards the door, Peng!
With a loud sound, the heavy gate of Jingshui Garden was burst open by the bronze lion. The few warriors who were originally hiding behind the gate to eavesdrop on what was going on outside were so frightened that they ran away from each other. Fortunately, they escaped in time, otherwise they might have been killed.
Smashed to pieces.
Hu Xiaotian appeared outside the broken gate like a god. Under the moonlight, his eyes were as cold as frost, and his blade-like gaze passed over the warriors swarming in the Zou Mansion, making these warriors shudder from the bottom of their hearts.
The first warrior pointed his finger at Hu Xiaotian and shouted angrily: "Bold maniac, do you know where this place is? You dare to force your way into Jingshui Garden and smash the gate of Zou Mansion. Don't you have any royal law in your eyes?"
Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "Ask Zou Yong to come out and hand over Her Royal Highness the eldest princess wisely!"
"The eldest princess is not in our house at all."
Hu Xiaotian snorted coldly and said, "Search for me!"
"Let's see who dares!" The leader of the warriors had already half-drawn the long sword from his waist, and all the warriors followed him. Zou Yong was favored in the Bohai Kingdom, and his group of warriors were also extremely arrogant. They usually didn't bully others.
Okay, I didn’t expect that someone would dare to come and provoke me today.
Hu Xiaotian strode forward. Two samurai waved their swords in an attempt to block his way. A bolt of cold lightning shot out from Hu Xiaotian's waist. With a clang!, the swords in their hands were cut off, and then they felt a chill on their faces.
Then there was burning pain, but Hu Xiaotian hit them hard on the face with the blade of the knife.
