People's scheming and scheming tend to grow with age. Even if they know that the other person is telling a lie, they still won't expose it to their face. Xue Lingjun has become accustomed to it, being hypocritical and submissive, and her inner sincerity has long been hidden.
Under the charming and affectionate appearance, even she herself had forgotten her sincerity. For various purposes, she had to keep pretending, but she also discovered that it is not a good thing for a woman to be too smart. Men usually
He doesn't like women who are smarter than him, but now even if he tries hard to pretend to be confused, others won't believe him.
"Is this a play directed and performed by Black Hu?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and changed the topic: "Sister Jun, does she have any news about King Yan?"
Xue Lingjun was slightly startled. Does what Hu Xiaotian said mean that the second brother was related to this matter? She slowly shook her head and said: "There has been no news about him for a long time. He murdered his mother and intended to subvert the imperial court. He has long been tolerated by Dayong.
, I don’t know where he fled to at this time." It is true that Xue Lingjun did not know the whereabouts of Xue Shengjing, but even she did not believe these accusations. She witnessed everything that happened in Ci'en Garden, so she naturally knew clearly that Xue Shengjing was not
What a good person, but who is clean here? Including herself, who is not for his own interests? The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. In fact, there is no difference between Xue Shengjing and Li Chenzhou. They are both ambitious.
But Xue Shengjing became the loser.
However, Xue Shengjing's escape did not make Li Chenzhou feel at ease. Until now, he has not given up the pursuit of Xue Shengjing. However, Xue Shengjing is indeed extraordinary. Not only did he successfully escape from Ci'en Garden, he is still at large. Xue Lingjun even
There is suspicion that he is still lurking in the country of Dayong. Ever since Li Chenzhou took power, there have been constant turmoil in the country. Most of them were planned by Xue Shengjing. The potential strength of this second brother was beyond their imagination.
Hu Xiaotian said: "He should be in Heihu."
Xue Lingjun has also heard of this statement, and the first news that came out was that she and Li Chenzhou decided after discussing it. They wanted to label King Yan as a foreigner, so that he would never be able to stand up in Dayong. Xue Lingjun sighed.
He said: "No matter what, he is my second brother after all. From the bottom of my heart, I still hope he lives well."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Besides the master of Black Hu Fanyin Temple, the person who sneaked into the Tianji Bureau, stole the national treasure of Dakang, and burned down the Qiqiao Linglong Tower was a man named Xiang Shancong."
Xue Lingjun frowned slightly, she was not familiar with this name.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Do you still remember what happened in Bohai Country?"
Xue Lingjun nodded, how could she not remember that when Xue Daohong came to power, he pointed the finger at Yan King Xue Shengjing and himself, and used the matter of Jubaozhai to cause trouble. If Hu Xiaotian hadn't come forward, I'm afraid the second brother would have been killed that time.
She had already stumbled, and she was very likely to die in Bohai. Thinking of that past event, Xue Lingjun couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt in her heart. Whether she admitted it or not, she owed Hu Xiaotian a huge favor, and that period in Bohai Country
It was also the time when the two of them put down their guard against each other and cooperated seamlessly. Xue Lingjun even fell in love with him.
Hu Xiaotian was also recalling that Xue Lingjun at that time had no ill intentions towards him. Xue Lingjun at that time was much more lovely than he is now. He whispered: "Everyone in the world knows that King Yan founded Jubaozhai, but few people know about him.
The real core industry is Yan Xitang, and Xiang Shancong is the shopkeeper of Yan Xitang and the most powerful confidant of King Yan."
Xue Lingjun sighed quietly and said, "I know too little about my second brother."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "People are often like this. They think they already know others very well, but it is usually just their own illusion. When I was in Bohai Country, I once thought I knew Sister Jun very well."
Xue Lingjun chuckled and said: "If a woman sees everything through a man, wouldn't it mean that she loses her sense of mystery and her attractiveness, don't you think so?"
Hu Xiaotian found that Xue Lingjun was quite narcissistic, and everything would involuntarily involve herself. He had no intention of getting entangled in this topic, and continued: "There is evidence that after kidnapping Princess Xima and sneaking into the Qiqiao Linglong Building of the Tianji Bureau,
The person who stole the national treasure of Dakang is Xiang Shancong."
Xue Lingjun secretly thought that Hu Xiaotian was basically saying that the mastermind behind everything was his second emperor brother Xue Shengjing. She blinked her eyes and said softly: "Can you tell me what treasure you lost?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "It involves state secrets, so it's not convenient to talk about it."
Xue Lingjun said: "Forget it, my second brother has always liked to collect rare treasures, and it seems that he still has not changed his original intention."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I'm afraid it's not just as simple as collecting rare treasures. Sister Jun, I once heard a rumor that the reason why Dayong was able to expand its territory was because of the help of a mysterious force. These
This mysterious force has been behind the scenes for many years."
Xue Lingjun said: "How come I haven't heard of it?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's just a rumor. Maybe there is no such thing at all. Maybe even Sister Jun doesn't know about it."
Xue Lingjun smiled and said, "When did you start to believe these baseless rumors?"
"The rumors may not be without reason. Sister Jun may not have truly realized the horror of rumors,"
Xue Lingjun sighed and said: "I'm afraid there is no one in the world who understands the horror of rumors better than me." Her fate is inseparable from rumors. In people's eyes, she is a broom star, and she is the one who destroys everyone.
But what a slut, these rumors ruined her youth.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Actually, I didn't expect Sister Jun to come to see me. There have been a lot of rumors about you and me recently."
Xue Lingjun chuckled and said: "You are not afraid, so what do I have to be afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid because the people around me trust me very much. They believe in my character and conduct. But will the people around Sister Jun trust you?"
Xue Lingjun's heart felt like a heavy hammer, and even the rhythm of her heartbeat changed. She knew what Hu Xiaotian was hinting at her. Li Chenzhou's temperament was suspicious and jealous. Now that rumors about herself and Hu Xiaotian had spread all over the city, there was no guarantee that this matter would not spread.
After hearing this from Li Chenzhou, I still don’t know how he will react?
Hu Xiaotian said: "Why did Sister Jun come to see me today?"
Xue Lingjun dispelled the unhappiness in his heart and his expression returned to calm: "Since the Black Hu Mission has left, I think there will be no obstacles to the cooperation between Da Yong and Da Kang."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I have asked the princess about the conclusion of the alliance, and her reply is that Dakang will neither help Heihu deal with you, nor will he form an alliance with you to fight against Heihu."
Xue Lingjun said: "What does the princess mean or what do you mean?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "What I meant is what she meant."
Xue Lingjun shook his head with some disappointment and said, "It seems that I don't have to wait until I meet Princess Yongyang."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Does Sister Jun want to leave?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Since there is no chance of a result, why continue to wait?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Will there be any results between you and Li Chenzhou?"
Xue Lingjun's expression suddenly changed due to his question, and he said coldly: "It seems that it's not your turn to ask about my private matters."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I'm just a little curious. I heard from Rong Xin that Li Chenzhou is capricious and has never known how to show mercy to others, so I'm worried about Sister Jun's future."
"Thanks!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Actually, I never thought that Sister Jun would cooperate with him. From the perspective of a bystander, your choice is not wise."
Xue Lingjun said: "When did you start caring about my affairs?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "We are all friends after all."
Xue Lingjun said: "The hatred for killing his father, the hatred for taking away his wife, there is no greater hatred in the world than this. He will not let go of Jian Rongxin's affairs easily."
Hu Xiaotian laughed loudly and said: "Rong Xin has let go of him. I don't care whether Li Chenzhou does. By the way, when Sister Jun returns to Yongdu, you might as well tell him for me that Rong Xin's revenge for killing his father will come to me sooner or later."
They will all help her clear it up."
After seeing off Xue Lingjun, Hu Xiaotian came to the west courtyard of the Wang Mansion. Ever since he rescued Rong Shi from Yun Shao Mansion, he had temporarily placed him here. In order to prevent accidents, Hu Xiaotian temporarily sealed Rong Shi's acupuncture points. Now he cannot function normally at all.
Using martial arts is no different from that of an ordinary person.
Rong Shi quickly accepted the reality and spent his free time reading and writing. Sometimes when he got interested, he would call his butler Hoover to play chess with him.
When Hu Xiaotian saw Rong Shi, he was playing chess with Hoover. When he saw Hu Xiaotian coming, Hoover stood up in a hurry: "Your Majesty!" There was some panic on his face. After all, playing chess with Rong Shi was a private matter, so he also
I know that Rong Shi is currently under house arrest here.
Hu Xiaotian waved his hand, signaling Hoover to leave. He looked at the end game with a smile and said, "Brother Rong is such an amazing chess player."
Rong Shi said calmly: "It's just to relieve loneliness."
Hu Xiaotian sat down in Hoover's seat, looked at the end game, then picked up the white piece and landed a piece on it.
Rong Shi shook his head and said: "My lord's chess skills seem to be inferior to your martial arts, let alone your scheming."
Hu Xiaotian laughed: "If you don't care about winning or losing, why care about chess skills?" He stared at Rong Shi's eyes and carefully looked at his facial contours.
Rong Shi said: "The prince is unwilling to kill me, and he is also unwilling to let me go. What on earth do you want to do by leaving me here?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Rong, do you recognize Taoist Tiancan?"
Rong Shi shook his head, wondering why Hu Xiaotian suddenly asked this question?
Hu Xiaotian said: "Then you must know Brother Xiangshan Congrong?" (To be continued.)
