This favor that Hu Xiaotian gave to Xue Daoming was a big favor. Xue Daoming had always been in a situation of being coerced since he came to the throne, but now Xue Daoming can finally walk out of the palace in an upright manner and do something he wanted to do but never dared to do.
It must be admitted that Xue Daoming is still very courageous. Not only did he dare to go out of the palace, but he also personally visited the homes of the ministers who were infected one by one, and took the imperial doctors to diagnose and treat them in person. Not only that, he also went among the people to express his condolences in person.
The people, as the king of a country, can be so considerate of the sufferings of the people. In the eyes of most people, his behavior is commendable.
Xue Daoming's behavior initially seemed to Li Chenzhou to be sensational and seeking death, but things did not develop as Li Chenzhou expected. The situation in Yongdu was improving and the epidemic was quickly under control. Li Chenzhou began to feel that this matter was not
So simple, he even suspected that this time was not the plague, but just a panic caused by the Black Hood.
What troubles Li Chenzhou the most is that in a short period of time, Xue Daoming has gained unprecedented support. His benevolent and righteous actions have successfully captured the hearts of the people. Not only ordinary people, but also many ministers in the court have quietly changed their minds.
In my heart, I quietly stood on Xinjun's side.
In fact, most of the ministers in the DPRK just dared to be angry with Li Chenzhou but did not dare to speak, and they owed a debt to the Dayong royal family. This time Xue Daoming came forward and cured many people, and their hearts were full of flesh, which made many ministers feel ashamed.
Especially the group of officials who were treated by him were so grateful to Xue Daoming after this incident that they were even willing to sacrifice their lives for him.
The eldest princess Xue Lingjun was sitting alone under the lamp drinking. So many things happened in Yongdu in the past two days. First, rats and bats attacked in groups, and then the plague broke out. But someone came out to refute the rumors, Xue Lingjun
Feeling that she was overwhelmed, she followed Li Chenzhou's advice and did not go out for the past two days, and did not even dare to go to the palace. Although news of the emperor's visit to the palace came time and time again, Xue Lingjun still did not dare to act rashly. She
Waiting for news about Li Chenzhou.
However, Li Chenzhou never came. Xue Lingjun guessed that Li Chenzhou had not been having a good time in the past two days. His light had been completely overshadowed by the new king Xue Daoming. Li Chenzhou had adopted strict control measures against the epidemic, but Xue Daoming had taken measures to let him go.
In an unexpected way, he actually dared to go deep into the epidemic area and visit the front line to express condolences to the people.
The wine glass in Xue Lingjun's hand was about to be brought to his lips. The candle in front of him flickered and went out.
Xue Lingjun suddenly became nervous. She panicked and said: "Someone is coming!"
A familiar voice said: "It's no use even if you scream, they all fainted."
The fire suddenly appeared, and the candle was lit again. By the candlelight, Xue Lingjun saw the uninvited guest in the room.
Hu Xiaotian looked at the candlelight quietly, seeming to completely ignore her existence.
Xue Lingjun bit her lips. She had already foreseen that this day would come, but when it came, she was still a little scared.
Hu Xiaotian asked: "How are you doing, Sister Jun?" He called Sister Jun, but his tone was not cordial at all.
Xue Lingjun sighed quietly and said: "It's not good. It's very bad! These days, people are always concerned about your news. I don't know whether you have gone back or are still in Yongdu. How do people think about you?
Don't you understand now?" Bo Nu was slightly angry, still charming, but what he saw in Hu Xiaotian's eyes was coquettishness, which made him feel disgusted.
Hu Xiaotian said softly: "Liu Changsheng is a person I respect, and Liu Yucheng is my friend. I originally thought we were still friends."
Xue Lingjun's pretty face showed an expression of shame: "I know, I'm sorry for you, but I can't help myself and am forced to do nothing."
Hu Xiaotian came and sat down opposite her, looking at her calmly, without hatred or murderous intent, but such a plain gaze made Xue Lingjun feel as if he had seen her heart. She did not dare to look face to face with Hu Xiaotian. His eyes dropped and he whispered: "Why are you looking at people like this? It's not like you've never seen him before?"
Hu Xiaotian gently pushed a letter in front of her.
Xue Lingjun said: "What? For me?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Please help me deliver this letter to Li Chenzhou!"
Xue Lingjun pursed her lips and looked jealous: "You actually wrote him a letter?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "The person who wrote the letter is Jian Rongxin!"
Xue Lingjun was startled when he heard this. From Hu Xiaotian's words, he could infer that Jian Rongxin should be with him. Although she had already guessed it, she still asked: "Are you with her?"
Hu Xiaotian pointed to the letter and said: "Here is the document for severing the marriage between Rong Xin and Li Chenzhou. From now on, they will have nothing to do with each other."
Xue Lingjun keenly noticed that Hu Xiaotian used the word "Rongxin" when he called Jian Rongxin. With this guy's wisdom, he must have done it intentionally. He should be deliberately hinting at something. Xue Lingjun picked up the letter: " I would rather demolish ten temples than destroy one family. Isn't it unkind of you to do this?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Tell Li Chenzhou for me, by the way, that Jian Rongxin is my woman. Anyone who dares to hurt her hair in the future will be my enemy!" Although he said these words with a smile, he was decisive. Full of power.
Xue Lingjun felt as if he had been pricked by a needle in his heart. Is Hu Xiaotian going to attack Li Chenzhou in this way? Or he wants to attack more than just Li Chenzhou." She said coldly: "Why don't you go find him yourself and deal with this person yourself? Give him a letter?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm worried that if I can't control my emotions, I might accidentally kill him."
Xue Lingjun discovered that Hu Xiaotian's whole person seemed to have changed completely after not seeing each other for a few days. Compared with the past, he was more domineering, decisive and confident. Even though he was on opposite sides, Xue Lingjun still did not hide his feelings for Hu Xiaotian. With admiration, her beautiful eyes were gleaming, hot and charming, and she said delicately: "There are many things in this world that are easy to say, but difficult to do."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Yes, just as you used me to kill Jian Rongxin, although I once thought about doing it, when I actually saw her, I still couldn't do it."
Xue Lingjun sighed and said: "Because she is beautiful, and you are always too lustful. I knew from the beginning that choosing you was a mistake."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Because she is kind, do you know that when I met her, she walked out of the Jingguo Palace alone in thin clothes."
Xue Lingjun said coldly: "I'm not interested in her affairs."
Hu Xiaotian said: "A lot of things happened that night. You have experienced everything from beginning to end, so you should understand in your heart."
Xue Lingjun said: "You and my second emperor brother have done a lot of things together. He asked you to come to me about the matter of Liu Changsheng and his son."
Hu Xiaotian said: "You are so smart and understand everything, but I don't understand why Empress Dowager Jiang has been such a failure in her life and why her children hate her so much?"
Xue Lingjun said nothing. No one would know the pain involved, and she would never tell anyone.
Hu Xiaotian said: "When Xue Shengjing escaped, he took off a piece of skin from Empress Dowager Jiang's back. I'm afraid you don't know about this, right?"
Xue Lingjun looked at Hu Xiaotian doubtfully.
It can be inferred from her blank eyes that she probably knows nothing about this matter. Hu Xiaotian said: "Xue Shengjing has too many secrets. I have no intention of getting involved in Dayong's affairs. I just think of you and my friend."
, let me remind you, even if you gather all your strength, you may not be Xue Shengjing's opponent."
Xue Lingjun laughed. In her opinion, Hu Xiaotian was simply alarmist. She leaned forward and stared at Hu Xiaotian's eyes with her charming eyes: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. No matter how powerful my second emperor brother is,
It cannot hide the fact that he is a loser."
Hu Xiaotian stood up and said: "I'm leaving. Can you please give this letter to Li Chenzhou for me? If Xue Shengjing is not eliminated, Dayong will never have peace."
Xue Lingjun bit his lip and finally asked, "What is your relationship with Jian Rongxin?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Master Jian betrothed his daughter to me before he died. It's that simple!"
Xue Lingjun said in astonishment: "How is it possible? How can one woman be married to two families?"
Li Chenzhou read the letter that Xue Lingjun gave him, reading it from beginning to end without missing a word, and then calmly put the letter down.
Xue Lingjun thought he would get angry, but Li Chenzhou showed a calmness that surprised her, and whispered: "What's in the letter?"
Li Chenzhou said: "If I were you, I wouldn't ask!" He put the letter against the candle and lit it slowly, and then said slowly: "What else did Hu Xiaotian say?"
"He said that all of us combined may not be the opponent of my second emperor brother."
Li Chenzhou said: "What else?"
Xue Lingjun shook her head. She really couldn't bear to irritate Li Chenzhou any more. If the relationship between Jian Rongxin and Hu Xiaotian was really as he said, then Li Chenzhou would never be able to bear such insult.
Li Chenzhou said: "This epidemic should have been planned by Xue Shengjing."
"But why was Dao Ming able to resolve this crisis?"
Li Chenzhou said coldly: "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell."
Xue Lingjun said in surprise: "You mean my second emperor brother helped Dao Ming?"
Li Chenzhou nodded slowly and said: "He is very scheming and is using this matter to enhance the emperor's prestige and help him win over people's hearts."
Xue Lingjun said: "Why did he do this?"
Li Chenzhou said: "He is not really trying to help the emperor, but he wants to create obstacles for me. To strengthen the emperor's power is to weaken ours. He wants to make the emperor capable of competing with me. He wants to make the emperor have the ability to compete with me."
Let us fight with the emperor so that we both lose, and only in this way can he reap the benefits!"
