Xue Lingjun did not expect, and Hu Xiaotian did not expect that although he had not seen who the assassin was, he could conclude that the assassin came from Luoying Palace, and flew up with Xue Lingjun in his arms, still wary of the surrounding movements in mid-air.
A feather arrow suddenly shot towards Xue Lingjun.
Hu Xiaotian drew out Zhan Feng and slashed at the feather arrow with his sword. With a bang!, a surge of potential spread along the feather arrow to the blade. Hu Xiaotian took advantage of the momentum of the arrow and landed on the roof. He raised his eyes and looked up.
But he saw a white figure floating away in the distance.
Hu Xiaotian did not catch up. Xue Lingjun's beauty was already pale at this time, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Who is it?"
Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "The people of Luoying Palace, didn't expect them to be so restless?" Convinced that no one was ambushing him anymore, he took Xue Lingjun back to the ground, only to see that all three Golden Scale Guards were dead.
Xue Lingjun said angrily: "I must seek justice from them."
Hu Xiaotian said: "There is no justice in this world." The person who came to assassinate them should not be Tang Jiuzheng. With Tang Jiuzheng's archery skills, he would definitely not leave so quickly.
When Zou Yong heard the news that Tang Jingyu had assassinated Xue Lingjun in front of the palace, he was shocked. He said angrily: "Jingyu, how can you be so impulsive? Where is the palace? Then Hu Xiaotian is by Xue Lingjun's side again, and you are
How can they get what they want? How can they give up?"
Tang Jingyu said: "Brother, don't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige. Even if I can't kill Hu Xiaotian and Xue Lingjun, I have taught them a lesson. They designed to frame you for injustice. If we don't respond, they will only
He is getting worse and more arrogant!"
Zou Yong smiled bitterly and said: "Jingyu, what does it mean to kill a few Golden Scale Guards? They won't care at all. Don't forget that the eldest princess Yan Dongqing is still in their hands. If they are angered, they don't know what they will do.
"
Tang Jingyu said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? Because they got rid of the Banlan Sect? How can the strength of the Banlan Sect be compared with our Luoying Palace?"
Zou Yong said: "Jingyu, you must not underestimate the enemy. Now we are not dealing with one force. Hu Xiaotian, Mangjiaodao, and Xue Lingjun have joined forces, but we have lost the help of the Banlan Sect. One is declining and the other is rising, and it cannot be tolerated.
optimism."
Tang Jingyu secretly sighed in his heart, his eldest brother was still afraid after all, he comforted Zou Yong and said: "Don't forget, Li Chenzhou is on our side, he represents the wishes of Emperor Yong, Xue Lingjun is just an eldest princess of Dayong
.Does she dare to compete with the emperor?"
Zou Yong was speechless, not because he was persuaded by Tang Jingyu, but because he couldn't agree with Tang Jingyu's ideas. Things began to change after Xue Lingjun and Yan Dongqing were kidnapped. The other party's counterattack was not only decisive but also effective. Xue Lingjun disappeared,
Kou Zisheng was killed, exchanged hostages, and attacked in the east and west. He took the lead in eradicating the old monster in Beize, and carried out the attack steadily and in an orderly manner, but the balance of strength between the two sides changed unknowingly.
What makes Zou Yong feel even more uncertain is the attitude of King Bohai. From the beginning, King Bohai resolutely dealt with Yuan Tianzhao and thoroughly investigated Jubaozhai. Now he seems to have forgotten about this matter. If he loses the support of King Bohai, then things may be in trouble.
Big. He has explained the relationship between Jubaozhai and Yanxi Hall to Li Chenzhou. As for how Li Chenzhou plays this card and what effect it can achieve, Zou Yong is not sure at all. In fact, he is not the only one who made the mistake.
One, they originally had the advantage, but since Hu Dafu appeared, the situation that was originally beneficial to them was reversed step by step by the opponent, and they saw a handful of good cards being played into bad ones. Li Chenzhou always stood behind him, and he was in this situation.
It did not play a big role in the process.
Zou Yong sighed and said: "Li Chenzhou is too rich and too cautious in his work. If he hadn't pursued excessive perfection in his work, maybe the situation would not be as bad as it is now."
Tang Jingyu said: "Since this is the case, let's just stop doing nothing and ask my father to take action to eliminate Hu Xiaotian's trouble!" Tang Jingyu and Hu Xiaotian have fought several times, and he has a complete assessment of Hu Xiaotian's force.
He knew in his heart that he would not be able to defeat Hu Xiaotian on his own, and Hu Xiaotian had also rescued Li Mingju and Xue Lingjun from him twice. If there was a head-on confrontation, maybe he would be defeated by him.
Zou Yong said: "Jingyu, you must not act rashly. I will discuss it with my father. You must not ask him to take action without authorization."
Tang Jingyu said: "Brother, I do everything for your sake!"
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, but it was his warriors who came to inform the Dayong merchant Hu Dafu.
When Tang Jingyu heard that Hu Dafu was coming, he gritted his teeth and said: "He came just in time, I will look for an opportunity to shoot him with one arrow!" Although the words were harsh enough, he also knew that even if he took action secretly, he might not be able to guarantee victory if exposed.
The relationship between him and Zou Yong was in trouble.
Zou Yong winked at him and signaled Tang Jingyu to stay away for the time being, and went to the front hall alone to see Hu Xiaotian. He had already expected that Hu Xiaotian's coming this time must be about an assassination in front of the palace. The last time Hu Xiaotian forced his way in
The powerful force shown in Jingshui Xingyuan is still fresh in his memory. If his father had not been present at that time, I am afraid that he would have suffered a loss. Now his father is not at Jingshui Xingyuan, but Hu Xiaotian has come again, this time.
The purpose was probably to raise an army to hold people accountable, so Zou Yong couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Hu Xiaotian seemed to be very calm on the surface, and did not come to accuse him aggressively. When he saw Zou Yong walking in, a smile appeared on his lips: "Hello, Mr. Zou, Hu has taken the liberty to come to the door today, hoping not to disturb you."
Zou Yong was also very calm and said with a smile: "Hu Caidong came to the humble house and made the humble house shine. Zou was very happy."
Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "I hope Mr. Zou really thinks so in his heart."
Zou Yong smiled and said: "Hu Caidong doesn't believe in Zou's sincerity?" He sat down next to Hu Xiaotian and raised his voice: "Tea!"
"No need! Mr. Hu is here this time. He just wants to say a few words and will leave after that. Mr. Zou, don't bother me."
Zou Yong glanced at Hu Xiaotian and said, "I wonder if Hu Caidong has any advice?"
Hu Xiaotian placed three bloody arrows on the coffee table. Zou Yong glanced at them and saw that there were no signs of Luoying Palace on the three arrows. Although Tang Jingyu was a little impulsive, he
He is quite cautious in doing things, and will not leave any obvious traces for people to trace whenever he makes a move. Zou Yong said deliberately: "What does Hu Caidong mean?"
"It's not interesting. I just want Mr. Zou to help return these things to their original owners."
Zou Yong frowned and said: "Hu Caidong is wrong to say that. I have never seen such feather arrows, let alone know anyone who uses such feather arrows!"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I always thought Master Zou was a sensible person, and you don't need to beat around the bush when talking to a sensible person. Just now, the eldest princess and I were assassinated when we left the palace, and three Golden Scale Guards were killed."
Zou Yong said nothing and looked at Hu Xiaotian quietly. He was right. He understood that people don't need to mince words when speaking.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I came here this time to protect the eldest princess. The life and death of other people has nothing to do with me. The last time I came to Jingshui Xingyuan to ask for someone, I had a conflict with Mr. Zou. It turned out that I was rude first, but you also
You killed one of our Golden Scale Guards, and you haven't given an explanation yet, and now you have lost three more lives!" At this point, Hu Xiaotian looked at Zou Yong coldly, his sharp eyes like a pair of flying knives shooting into his eyes.
Zou Yong said: "Why does Hu Caidong believe that the deaths of these three people are related to me?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Many things in the world do not require evidence, especially when you want to kill someone. I can roughly guess what Mr. Zou's purpose is. What Mr. Zou wants to do has nothing to do with me, as long as it does not cause harm
My interests, I would rather turn a blind eye, but once my interests are violated..." Hu Xiaotian handed a letter to Zou Yong.
Zou Yong took the letter and opened it. The handwriting on the letter was very familiar. It was clearly written by the eldest princess Yan Dongqing. The content of the letter shocked Zou Yong even more. It told how they had an affair and what it said.
The details of how to bring him into the palace to present him to the Queen Mother were written clearly and clearly. Even where they were sleeping was specifically marked. Zou Yong broke out in a cold sweat. Yan Dongqing, Yan Dongqing, you stupid woman,
This kind of thing actually came out all at once. If it spread, wouldn't it become a huge scandal that shocked the Bohai Kingdom, and his head would not be saved at all. Zou Yong held the letter and didn't know what to say for a while.
, his heart was in turmoil, and he truly realized what a powerful person he was facing. As long as the other party was willing, not only could he be ruined, but all his hard work for many years could be wasted.
Zou Yong finally calmed down the confusion in his heart, tore up the letter in front of Hu Xiaotian, and said calmly: "Hu Caidong wants to deal with me, it can be considered as deliberate. If the king knows that the eldest princess has been
I’m afraid it will be difficult for you to escape from the truth about the prisoner.”
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "To each other!" He looked at the letter Zou Yong tore up and said: "There can't be only one copy of this thing."
Zou Yong refused to give in, "Do you think the king will believe it?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "If you really want to know, then I might as well ask the eldest princess to send another letter to King Bohai to see his reaction."
Zou Yong swallowed and laughed.
Hu Xiaotian also laughed.
Zou Yong said: "Tea!"
Hu Xiaotian did not refuse this time. When the servants brought the tea, Hu Xiaotian picked up the teacup and smelled the tea. He seemed to say casually: "Li Chenzhou can't give you anything. Yan Dongsheng doesn't have the guts to offend King Yan, let alone
It is not good for the eldest princess. The most he can do is to help both parties. If you think you can use him to achieve your goals, I'm afraid there is no possibility." (To be continued.)
