Qiqi said: "I know you are greedy. You can't go empty-handed when you go to Hongbei Mo as a guest. Take the skull there and ask him to keep it for you. There is a Qibao Exquisite Tower in the Tianji Bureau. Let him store the skull in
in."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Aren't you afraid that Hong Beimo will swallow the skull?"
Qiqi said: "I'll go there with you. Although he presided over the construction of the Qibao Linglong Tower, all the design drawings were drawn by me. No one except me can enter it freely."
Only then did Hu Xiaotian know that Qiqi had other plans. He thought that she was just happy to give the skull to him, but he didn't know when she built such a small building in Tianji Bureau?
Qiqi said: "Some things are not suitable to be stored in the royal family. You are right. A common man is not guilty of harboring a treasure. In order to reduce my risk as much as possible, I can only build a safe place elsewhere. I
After thinking about it, only the Tianji Bureau is the most suitable. I got this Qibao Exquisite Building from the skull, drew it, and asked Hong Beimo to build it in the Tianji Bureau to store some important things. Although it is located in the Tianji Bureau, Hong Beimo
But there is no way to open it."
Hu Xiaotian secretly praised this girl for her scheming, but when dealing with an old fox like Hong Beimo, she really had to be careful about everything. It seemed that her worries about Qiqi were unnecessary. Even without his help, she would not
Easily controlled by Hongbei Mo.
Qiqi threw the skull to Hu Xiaotian, and Hu Xiaotian reached out to catch it. However, the moment he grabbed the skull with both hands, the skull suddenly glowed with blue light. Hu Xiaotian's mind went blank for a moment. After the blank, a green-faced creature with fangs like a hill appeared in front of him.
The giant beast flew toward him. Hu Xiaotian was so frightened that he dropped his skull to the ground.
Qiqi's expression was full of surprise. She also saw the blue light emitted by the skull after Hu Xiaotian grabbed it. The skull, which even she had no reaction to, actually felt in Hu Xiaotian's hand. Could it be that he, like herself, has destiny?
The person’s ancestry?
Hu Xiaotian broke out in a cold sweat. This was not the first time he came into contact with this skull. He had no reaction at all before, but what happened this time? Even Hu Xiaotian was a little confused. Could it be that he also has the blood of the Destined One? Then he thought
When I think about it, it seems that there is no possibility.
He took a breath, bent down, and carefully picked up the skull. This time he learned a lesson and touched it with his fingers, but there was no reaction. Then he grabbed the skull. The strange thing was that there was no reaction at all this time.
None, Hu Xiaotian secretly thought, why is this thing so evil? Could it be because of the picture of heaven and man? Because he had that kind of relationship with Qin Yutong, he also got it from Qin Yutong.
Some kind of mysterious power, such as reacting to the skull? But the reaction just now was fleeting, and now the skull was lying quietly in his hand, not even a little bit of light could be seen.
Qiqi's eyes were full of suspicion, but she didn't ask questions. She knew Hu Xiaotian's temperament fairly well. As long as it was something that this guy didn't want to talk about, he wouldn't speak no matter how much he asked. In fact, the matter had been made clear. Hu Xiaotian was very sure.
Like myself, we are all descendants of the Destined Ones.
Hu Xiaotian had already guessed from Qiqi's expression what she was suspecting. This kind of thing was really hard to explain. He couldn't tell her that the flash of inspiration he had just now was due to the little ability he gained after having an affair with Qin Yutong.
She wouldn't believe it, and might even offend Qi Qi. She might as well just make the mistake and make her think that she is the descendant of the Destined One. At least, Qi Qi would mistakenly think that they have the same origin, and it would be easier for them to get closer in their hearts.
Closer.
If Hu Xiaotian's arrival was planned, Princess Yongyang's arrival was unexpected. Hong Beimo did not expect Qiqi to come, and also sent a hot potato. After many twists and turns, the one sent by Ren Tianqing
The skull was finally sent to the Tianji Bureau, but Qiqi only used it here for safekeeping, not to hand it over to him.
When Qiqi went to Qibao Linglong Tower, Hong Beimo invited Hu Xiaotian into Guantian Tower. The banquet was ready. A charming girl in a red dress was waiting quietly at the table. Hu Xiaotian recognized it from a distance.
Baobao.
Hong Beimo's arrangements tonight are obviously full of deep meaning. He is actually clear about the past relationship between Bao Bao and Hu Xiaotian. It is precisely because of Hu Xiaotian that he asked Bao Bao to serve here, but he did not consider Yongyang.
The princess will come in person.
Hu Xiaotian looked at the charming Baobao and said with a smile: "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time. You have become more and more beautiful."
Bao Bao smiled shyly and naturally did not dare to express her true feelings in front of Hong Beimo. Just seeing her lover, her heart was already overflowing with happiness.
Hong Beimo said: "I don't know when Her Royal Highness the Princess will come back." His eyes turned to the Qibao Linglong Building in the front right. Although he was responsible for the construction of that small building, all the organs were set up by Qiqi, and even he did not
The ability cracking mechanism entered it. Qiqi sent the skull here this time, obviously considering that the common man was not guilty of the crime, and she wanted to divert possible dangers elsewhere.
Hu Xiaotian said: "No need to wait for her, she said let us drink as much as we want. If I drink too much, she will be responsible for sending me back."
Hong Beimo smiled and nodded. He had already understood the meaning of Hu Xiaotian's words. It seemed that Hu Xiaotian had settled his differences with Qiqi this time he came to Beijing. Perhaps the two had rekindled their old relationship. He glanced at Bao Bao.
Understanding, he came over and filled the wine glasses for the two of them.
Hong Beimo picked up the wine glass and said, "Your Majesty can come tonight and make Tianji Bureau flourish. I will express my joy and encouragement with this thin glass of wine."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Mr. Hong is too polite, I will do it first as a courtesy!" He was happy, raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.
Bao Bao immediately came over and filled up their second cups.
Hu Xiaotian looked at Baobao with a smile: "Sister, why don't we sit down and have a few drinks together."
Bao Bao shook her head and said, "I don't dare!"
Hong Beimo said: "Since the prince has said it, Baobao, just sit down and have a few more drinks with the prince."
"Yes!" Baobao then came to sit next to Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian looked at Baobao and said with emotion: "My sister and I met in Da Nei back then. My sister took good care of me at that time. Xiaotian never dares to forget the benefits her sister has given me." He picked up the cup.
Take the initiative to hold a glass of wine.
Bao Bao looked at Hong Beimo with a pretty face. Hong Beimo smiled and stroked his beard, telling her to just do what she wanted. Bao Bao drank the glass of wine with Hu Xiaotian, then stood up and said, "Bao Bao doesn't dare to delay my adoptive father and me."
While the prince is chatting, I’d better take my leave first.”
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "Go ahead, the prince and I do have something to talk about alone."
After Bao Bao said goodbye to the two of them, he left in a hurry. Hu Xiaotian's eyes followed Bao Bao's beautiful figure, showing a somewhat disappointed look.
Hong Beimo looked at him meaningfully and said, "Your Majesty seems to treat my goddaughter differently."
Hu Xiaotian chuckled and said, "I won't hide it from Mr. Hong. In the past, when the King of Japan was working as a fake eunuch in the palace, he and Sister Baobao were very close. Hehe, they were very close..." Anyway, their relationship couldn't be hidden from this old fox, so they simply
She made it clear to him that she would ask Baobao to leave when the time was right, but she had to come up with a reason that would make it difficult for the old fox to refuse.
Hong Beimo also laughed: "Your Highness is coming to the capital this time. What important matters do you have?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "For the sake of Xichuan." He slowly put down his wine glass and said: "Xichuan earthquake, hundreds of thousands of refugees poured into the territory under my jurisdiction, there are too many monks and too few people. Mr. Hong should understand my dilemma, so I can only come to the court to report
Asking for help."
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "What did the court say?" He cursed in his heart. Previously, Hu Xiaotian was basically independent. Although he accepted the title of Zhenhai King, he was actually not under the control of Dakang at all. Now he is in trouble but he
He thought of asking for support. But he also understood that whether Hu Xiaotian could get support depended on Qiqi's attitude. Judging from the current situation, there was a good chance that this guy would get what he wanted.
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has not given me an answer yet. If she refuses to help me, I will really be at my wits' end."
Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty's mission to Xichuan turned out not to be ideal!"
"Isn't that right? Not only did this mission fail to achieve its goal, but it almost cost its life there. In fact, Xichuan is already in the hands of Tianxiang Kingdom."
Hong Beimo said: "My vision is not as good as the prince's. I don't dare to speak nonsense about national affairs."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong is a veteran of three dynasties. Looking inward, there is no other person who can sit on the Diaoyutai despite the ups and downs like Mr. Hong."
Hong Beimo smiled calmly and said: "That's because the court knows that Hong is indifferent to fame and fortune. How can a minister with no ambition be suspected by the court?" He changed the topic and said: "The prince is also an extraordinary person. He respects his father as he does.
Such a big thing happened, but instead of being implicated, the prince rose through the ranks and became a very popular minister!"
Hu Xiaotian secretly scolded this guy for not opening the pot and lifting the pot, but he did not show the slightest anger on his face. He said with a smile: "Then we must all rely on the emperor's sage to distinguish the loyal from the traitor and the right from the right."
Hong Beimo nodded: "I heard that the incident in Xichuan seems to have something to do with my respected father."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Since my mother passed away, I have severed ties with him. This matter is known to the whole world, and Mr. Hong must also know it, right?"
Of course Hong Beimo knew. He sighed and said: "Blood ties are connected, but flesh and blood ties are not so easy to cut off."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It sounds like Mr. Hong is a person who values feelings very much!"
Hong Beimo heard something in his words and sighed softly: "Everyone has their own feelings."
Hu Xiaotian said: "When my grandmother came to attend my wedding, she once mentioned Mr. Hong."
Hong Beimo suddenly became expressionless because of these words.
