Hong Beimo sent Yang Longyue off and returned to the Qinzheng Hall, telling Qiqi the conversation he had with Yang Longyue on the way. After listening, Qiqi said: "Yang Longyue is definitely not as simple as traveling around the mountains and rivers."
Hong Beimo said: "Yang Longyue is the most capable among the princes of Tianxiang Kingdom, but his origin determines that he will not be successful among the royal family. The ministers got the news that someone spent a lot of money to try to bring him down.
Get rid of him." Qiqi frowned. Yang Longyue was just an ordinary prince of Tianxiang Kingdom. Who wanted to get rid of him? She quickly made a judgment: "Is it King Tianxiang?"
Hong Beimo whispered: "The Queen Mother of Tianxiang Kingdom."
Qiqi was a little puzzled and said: "Her son has already ascended the throne, why does she still attack Yang Longyue?" Long Xuanjiao, the Queen Mother of Tianxiang Kingdom, is the biological sister of Long Xuanen, the old emperor of Dakang. According to her seniority, Qiqi
She should also be called aunt.
Hong Beimo said: "King Tianxiang is cowardly by nature. He usually only likes to dance and write, and is too lazy to interfere in the important affairs of the court. The Queen Mother has always been in power. A group of old ministers of Tianxiang Kingdom are quite critical of this. But this
Yang Longyue is a tough man, good at fighting, decisive in doing things, and is deeply supported in the army, which aroused the Queen Mother's defensiveness, so she originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Her Highness's wedding ceremony to get rid of Yang Longyue."
Qiqi snorted coldly and said, "Aren't you going to put the blame on me?"
Hong Beimo nodded and said: "Judging from various signs, it is indeed possible."
Qiqi couldn't help but feel angry. Dakang had suffered from famine for many years and its national power was constantly weakening. Now even the former subsidiary Tianxiang Kingdom dared to attack them. It really felt like a tiger was bullied by a dog. She gritted her teeth and said: "Before, Hu Bu
I haven't settled the matter with them yet, and now I have a new grudge, do you think Da Kang has reached the point where he can be bullied by others?"
Hong Beimo said: "Wei Chen has spies in Tianxiang Kingdom. I can conclude that Hu Buwei is in Tianxiang Kingdom and has always been under the protection of the Queen Mother of Tianxiang Kingdom."
Qiqi said: "If she, Long Xuanjiao, is unkind, don't blame me for not caring about the same ancestry." But it suddenly occurred to her that if what Hong Beimo told her about her life experience was true and she did not have royal blood in her body, she and Long Xuanjiao would not be the same.
There is no blood relationship between them at all, so there is no sense of having the same clan.
Hong Beimo said: "Dakang's palace changes will inevitably attract covetous views from other places. They will definitely think that there are many internal conflicts in the Dakang court and that power is unstable. Maybe someone will want to take advantage of this moment to harm Dakang."
Qiqi nodded. It was out of such considerations that she postponed her actions against Hu Xiaotian. She must first settle the internal affairs before going outside. The first issue before her was to stabilize the internal affairs and make the gang that had become a gang due to frequent palace changes become
The frightened ministers calmed down.
Qiqi whispered: "It will always be troublesome if Yang Longyue dies in Dakang. Although Tianxiang Kingdom is not a concern, now is not the time to have a dispute with them."
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "If Wei Chen's inference is correct, he is passing through Hu Xiaotian's territory this time. If he encounters trouble in Hu Xiaotian's territory, we can put aside the matter and help him by the way.
Hu Xiaotian has made another enemy."
Qiqi said: "Mr. Hong is really thoughtful."
Hong Beimo said respectfully: "It is the duty of a humble minister to be loyal to the great Kang and to fulfill his responsibilities for His Highness."
Qiqi said: "This morning, Taishi Wen came to report a piece of news. The grain sent to us by Dayong Yun has been increased by 50% from the original price."
Hong Beimo couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. Dayong's proposal to raise food prices at this time was simply taking advantage of the situation.
Qiqi said: "These neighboring countries all have the idea of killing you while you are sick, and they are all ready to bully us."
Hong Beimo said: "This has been the case since ancient times. You must bear with your anger for a while, wait until Dakang recovers his strength, and then go to them one by one to get it back."
Hu Xiaotian originally wanted to ask Qin Yutong about Ren Tianqing, but when he finished all the things and thought of Qin Yutong, he realized that Qin Yutong was not in Dongliang County at this time. After asking Fang Fang, he found out that Qin Yutong was with him.
Shortly after arriving in Kangdu, we left for Dayong. It was said that we were going to Shennongshe.
Liang Dazhuang and Chang Fanqi returned to Dongliang County with the unsent betrothal gifts. Although their trip was in vain, fortunately everyone was safe and sound. The group of subordinates who had been arrested by the court also returned one after another. Hu Xiaotian
I thought Shi Xuedong would come with him. After asking, I found out that Shi Xuedong had returned to his hometown with his father.
Knowing that these people were safe, Hu Xiaotian felt relieved. On the one hand, he sent spies to collect intelligence on all aspects of the surroundings, and on the other hand, he stepped up military training and preparations. In the blink of an eye, summer has arrived, and the weather in the Yongjiang River Basin has begun to become sultry. Since then,
After Hu Xiaotian left Kangdu, the court, apart from listing his crimes and labeling him as a treason and rebellion, did not see any specific measures taken by them. It seems that Qiqi had a thorough understanding of the current situation in Dakang and had a deep understanding of it.
Understanding the principle that one must first settle the internal affairs before fighting against external forces, he is not eager to conquer rebellion, but to consolidate power and consolidate internal affairs.
God has favored us. After years of famine, Dakang has finally ushered in a good season with good weather this year. The wheat in the fields is green. Even a layman like Hu Xiaotian can see the prospect of a good harvest this autumn. It seems that after Dakang changes hands, the national destiny will be better.
Sure enough, changes happened quietly.
Hu Xiaotian stood on the embankment on the north bank of the Yongjiang River, looking northward at the endless wheat fields. He saw the people working in the fields and heard bursts of simple laughter. Food was the most important thing for the people, and the people did not have high demands.
How can we not make these people smile when they want to have enough food and clothing, and finally see the hope of a good harvest after years of famine?
Liang Dazhuang came up behind Hu Xiaotian happily: "Young Master, a distinguished guest has arrived."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Dignified guest? What kind of distinguished guest?"
Liang Dazhuang said: "Yang Longyue, the blessed king of Tianxiang Kingdom."
Hu Xiaotian frowned. He had never met Yang Longyue, and he had never had any official contact with Tianxiang Kingdom. However, the situation in Tianxiang Kingdom had always affected his heart, because not only did they abandon him but
His deceased father, his sworn brothers who betrayed him, and the Anping Princess Long Xiyue who haunted him.
Hu Xiaotian didn’t know what the purpose of Yang Longyue’s visit was? Is it for business or private? After hearing the news about Yang Longyue’s visit, he immediately returned to Dongliang County. In the mansion, the prefect Li Mingcheng was accompanying Yang Longyue to talk. Hearing that Hu Xiaotian had arrived
, the two stood up at the same time to greet each other.
Yang Longyue had been well-known to Hu Xiaotian for a long time and knew that he was a newly emerging young hero in Dakang. He was still a little surprised to see Hu Xiaotian so young.
Hu Xiaotian cupped his fists and bowed, and said with a smile: "I don't know that His Royal Highness Prince Fu is here. Hu is not welcome at a distance, so please don't be offended if he is rude."
Yang Longyue saw Hu Xiaotian being so polite, and felt a little more favorable towards him. He clasped his fists and returned the greeting: "I have never met Mr. Hu before. I am passing through Dongliang County and took the liberty to come to visit you. I hope Mr. Hu won't take offense to the trouble."
."
The two of them laughed at the same time. After sitting down again, Hu Xiaotian asked someone to change the tea and asked Liang Dazhuang to prepare a banquet for Yang Longyue.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I wonder where His Royal Highness Prince Fu is going when he passes through Dongliang County this time?"
Yang Longyue said: "I want to go to Shao Yuan to see my master." His master is Xie Tianyuan, who is known as the Sword Saint of the Southwest. Xie Tianyuan went to Dayong three years ago and has not returned until now. He still lives here.
In Shaoyuan, Yang Longyue came to Dakang to watch the ceremony. Unexpectedly, something happened midway. His mission was also canceled with the cancellation of the wedding between Hu Xiaotian and Princess Yongyang. He simply took this opportunity to have a good trip in Dayong. It happened to be
Then go to Shaoyuan to visit the master whom I haven’t seen for a long time.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Fu must stay for a few more days this time. I happen to have some free time recently, so I can accompany His Highness around."
Yang Longyue smiled and said: "To be honest, one of the reasons why Longyue came to get to know Mr. Hu this time was actually entrusted by others."
"oh?"
Yang Longyue said: "Master Hu and I were supposed to have met in Kangdu. I went to Kangdu on the king's order to watch the ceremony. However, it was only when I arrived in Kangdu that I found out that the engagement between Master Hu and Princess Yongyang had been cancelled."
."
Hu Xiaotian laughed: "So it's really a shame that we met so late."
Yang Longyue said: "I also brought a lot of gifts to this ceremony."
Hu Xiaotian secretly thought, how could he have the nerve to accept your gift after the wedding was cancelled?
Yang Longyue said: "There is a gift that must be handed over to Mr. Hu personally."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "But I don't know who entrusted His Highness Prince Fu?"
"Master Hu will know after reading it." Yang Longyue handed a letter to Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian took the letter and opened it. It turned out to be written by Hu Buwei. He glanced at it and found that the general content of the letter was nothing more than an expression of repentance. The words specifically emphasized that he had no choice but to do so due to the situation.
After making this choice, he finally congratulated him and Qiqi on their wedding, and specifically stated that Murong Feiyan was fine. He also attached a map to the letter. Hu Xiaotian knew at a glance that this map was the Shangshu Mansion. This map
The mark on the picture should be the wedding gift that Hu Buwei wanted to give to him. As for specifically mentioning Murong Feiyan, it was obviously not just to reassure him, but more like a threat.
Hu Xiaotian put the letter away and said quietly: "Who entrusted His Royal Highness Prince Fu to give this letter to me?"
Yang Longyue said: "Mr. Lan!"
Hu Xiaotian took a sip of tea: "I have never seen this Mr. Lan."
