Hu Xiaotian said: "It seems that everyone's experiences are similar. My cousin is well-informed. Has their king been found?"
Xu Mubai shook his head and said, "It can't be that easy. I think there is a high probability that this time it will be worse." As he spoke, he quietly observed Hu Xiaotian's expression.
Hu Xiaotian's expression remained as usual, without any change, and he said: "The wind is so tight now. My cousin came to see me. What's the emergency?"
Xu Mubai lowered his voice and said: "The manager is here, she wants to see you."
Hu Xiaotian frowned and asked with some confusion: "Who is this manager? Why do you want to see me?" He had not been interested in the affairs of the Xu family in Jinling before, and had not deliberately learned about it in the past. He also passed by Nanjin Island this time.
At that time, I felt that there might have always been a close relationship between the Xu family and Hu Buwei, so I began to pay attention to the Xu family. However, it was only a short time ago and I still knew very little about the Xu family in Jinling.
Xu Mubai said: "She is the manager of our Xu family, and she is also my sister-in-law. Over the years, grandma has lived in seclusion, and all orders are announced to the outside world through her."
Hu Xiaotian was startled in his heart. He didn't expect that there was such a powerful figure in the Xu family in Jinling. Xu Mubai's sister-in-law was not his own. Hu Xiaotian vaguely remembered that there was such an aunt. She seemed to be named Xu Fengmei. Hu Xiaotian asked: "When will we meet?"
Xu Mubai said: "Go over now, she is already waiting at Yuqing Baozhuang."
Hu Xiaotian decided to meet the general manager of the Xu family. He had always had too many confusions about the Xu family. During this trip to the Tianxiang Kingdom, Hu Xiaotian discovered that the Xu family's power was deeply rooted here. Hu Buwei should not have chosen the Tianxiang Kingdom when he chose it.
It's not just Long Xuanjiao's fault, it can be inferred that the relationship between Hu Buwei and Xu is much closer than what he sees. Xu's ruthlessness and coldness towards Hu Buwei may just be superficial.
Hu Xiaotian even began to doubt whether this mysterious old Mrs. Xu existed? Maybe there was someone else controlling the huge Xu family behind the scenes, and Mrs. Xu was just a cover.
It was inevitable to encounter interrogations when going out at this time. During the short three-mile journey from Cuiyuan to Yuqing Baozhuang, they encountered five interrogations. During this period, they saw many suspicious people being arrested. The disappearance of King Tianxiang has caused uproar in the city.
The celebrations that originally started yesterday were also suddenly interrupted. No one dared to take to the streets at this time. Almost every house was closed, and the streets and alleys were deserted, making it particularly deserted.
When they arrived at Yuqing Baozhuang, as Xu Mubai said, the place was in a mess. Xu Mucheng was directing the men to clean up. When he saw the two people coming in, Xu Mucheng greeted them with a bitter smile and sighed: "These soldiers are just like bandits, barbaric and rude.
!Almost overturned Yuqing Baozhuang."
Xu Mubai said: "Did you lose anything?"
Xu Mucheng said: "It's just some damage, they don't dare to steal it openly." He smiled at Hu Xiaotian and said: "The manager is in the backyard!"
Xu Mubai took Hu Xiaotian to the backyard, and saw that the backyard had been tidied up, but the changes here could still be seen. The damaged flower pots and fish tanks had been removed, and the entire backyard seemed much emptyer.
A woman in a green robe sat quietly in the pavilion. Night had fallen at this time, and because she was facing away, her true appearance could not be seen clearly.
Arriving at the pavilion, Xu Mubai said respectfully: "Auntie, I've invited my cousin here!"
The green-robed woman slowly turned around. When Hu Xiaotian saw her appearance clearly, he was stunned as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt. The steward looked almost exactly like his wife, Xu Fengyi, but upon closer inspection,
.She looks much younger than my mother. Xu Fengmei smiled at Hu Xiaotian, her smile was kind and gentle, and said softly: "You are Xiaotian, right? I am your aunt!"
Hu Xiaotian cupped his fists and saluted. When he saw Xu Fengmei for the first time, he suddenly thought of his mother. He couldn't help but feel confused. Before her death, her mother said that she was born to Xu Lingkong and an outsider. But why did she and Xu Fengmei look so similar? It seems that
The information that my mother learned may not be true. Hu Xiaotian sighed in his heart, but it was a pity that my mother left so early and everything could not be verified. He said respectfully: "Auntie, please accept Xiaotian's greetings!"
Before Hu Xiaotian could kneel down, Xu Fengmei grabbed his hand, pulled him up, and said with a smile: "I can't bear your gift. I have always wanted to see you. It was not until today that I had the chance to meet you. Xiaotian,
You are the pride of our Xu family." She took Hu Xiaotian's hand and looked at it carefully, and praised: "You are indeed a talented person." She glanced at Xu Mubai.
Xu Mubai immediately understood and quietly retreated.
Xu Fengmei took Hu Xiaotian's hand and asked him to sit down. The more Hu Xiaotian looked at Xu Fengmei, the more he felt that she was similar to her mother. After all, they were siblings. But what was the purpose of her mother's words before her death? Why did she believe those nonsense?
But if I am indeed a descendant of the Xu family, then who is Hu Buwei? Why is he so interested in that blue transparent skull?
Hu Xiaotian asked: "When did aunt come?"
Xu Fengmei let go of Hu Xiaotian's arm, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Hu Xiaotian, and handed it over. Hu Xiaotian took it respectfully, smelled the aroma of the tea, and tasted it. He was wary of the Xu family. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xu Mubai invited him to
When we get together in De Yue Tower, I just want to tamper with the food. Although my body is almost immune to all poisons, after all, there are no absolutes in this world. If I meet a master like Ren Tianqing, I will inevitably be attacked.
Xu Fengmei said: "Do you think your mother and I look very similar?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "It's very similar, but you are much younger than my mother."
A faint smile appeared on Xu Fengmei's lips: "Actually, we are only three years apart."
Hu Xiaotian said: "My mother has lived a very hard life, and she has dedicated herself to the Hu family and died."
Xu Fengmei nodded, sighed softly and said, "It's really not easy for my sister. Is she still going peacefully?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Before my mother died, my father was not around, and no one in the Xu family was around her."
Xu Fengmei said: "The Xu family does owe my sister a lot, and you are right to be angry. I came to you today, and I have no extravagant hope of regaining our family ties with you. I just have something to say to you."
Hu Xiaotian nodded: "Please tell me!"
Xu Fengmei said: "Why don't you take your people and leave as soon as possible?"
Hu Xiaotian raised his head and stared at Xu Fengmei's eyes for a long time. Then he suddenly laughed: "I don't understand this! Is it a threat? Or is it advice?"
Xu Fengmei smiled calmly and said: "You are my nephew, how can I threaten you? I just care about you and don't want you to stay here and take risks."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Even if I want to leave now, I have no chance. The king of Tianxiang Kingdom is missing, and the Queen Mother has issued an order that no one is allowed to leave the country without permission before the king is found. If I leave, wouldn't I become the biggest suspect?
What's more..." He paused and said: "My grandfather was controlled by the beggar gang. You don't know this news, right?" Xu Lingkong should be Xu Fengmei's biological father. His biological father is in trouble. Isn't this daughter the daughter of Xu Fengmei?
Worry?
Xu Fengmei said softly: "The Xu family's affairs will naturally be handled by the Xu family, so you don't have to worry." The implication was that Hu Xiaotian was obviously regarded as an outsider.
The smile on Hu Xiaotian's face suddenly faded: "If we count on the Xu family, I'm afraid the old man will escape alive."
Xu Fengmei said: "The Beggar Gang is the largest gang in the world, and its power is enough to compete with any kingdom. You will not gain anything by becoming an enemy of them."
Hu Xiaotian said: "You don't have to worry, even if I provoke the Beggar Gang, it's my own business and has nothing to do with the Xu family!"
Xu Fengmei said: "Some things don't matter just because you say it doesn't matter."
Hu Xiaotian laughed: "You seem to be inconsistent in your words."
Xu Fengmei said: "Today you deliberately provoked disputes in the palace and targeted Shangguan Yunchong of the beggar gang. Is this all intentional?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "So what?"
Xu Fengmei said: "With your wisdom, you would not use such low-level methods to deal with the Beggar Gang. It happened that King Tianxiang disappeared today. What is the connection between this?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "It does sound like there is some connection."
Xu Fengmei said: "I have heard some unconfirmed news that you have a half-brother in Tianxiang Kingdom. Back then, your father ignored the safety of your mother and son and chose to leave Dakang. What was in your heart?
Isn’t it still impossible to untie this knot?”
Hu Xiaotian remained calm as ever, Xu Fengmei was indeed an unusual person, she was obviously suspecting that she had kidnapped Yang Longjing.
Xu Fengmei said: "If I were you, I might really do something that would make some people regret it. If some people kidnapped Yang Longjing, got rid of him, and then blamed the Beggar Gang for the incident, then wouldn't it be right?
Isn’t it possible to kill two birds with one stone and take revenge?”
Hu Xiaotian secretly sighed in his heart. Xu Fengmei was so smart that she almost guessed every step he took. Unfortunately, she had no evidence, even if she made the most reasonable guess. Hu Xiaotian suddenly reached out and touched Xu Fengmei's smooth forehead.
After a moment: "You don't have a fever, do you? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Xu Fengmei did not expect that this boy would act so boldly and calmly, but her expression did not change at all, and she remained calm and calm.
Although Hu Xiaotian was suspected of being disrespectful, his move had a profound meaning. Xu Fengmei did not dodge or evade, and the whole process was extremely calm, without even a normal person's avoidance reaction. This shows that Xu Fengmei's mentality is strong.
Xu Fengmei said: "I will not allow anyone to destroy the interests of the Xu family, even you."
Hu Xiaotian said: "If you have evidence, just go and testify against Tianxiang Kingdom. If you don't have evidence, please don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, even if we are relatives, I will not give you face." He stood up and smiled at Xu Fengmei.
He smiled and said, "We'd better not meet each other again. I really don't want to ruin my mother's image in my heart."
Xu Fengmei looked at Hu Xiaotian's back and slowly shook her head. When Hu Xiaotian's figure disappeared from the courtyard, she turned around and walked into the small building behind her.
