Hu Xiaotian didn't think Qiqi would have any urgent matters, but he couldn't resist her summons. He entered the palace with Yin Zheng and it was already nightfall when they arrived at the Zilan Palace. Qiqi asked people to
The food and wine were ready, just waiting for him to come and dine together.
Seeing Hu Xiaotian's arrival, Qiqi smiled, waved her hand to signal the palace people to leave, came to Hu Xiaotian, and said softly: "Are you tired? You haven't eaten all day, right? Are you hungry?"
Hu Xiaotian had never seen her be so considerate to him before. He felt a little unusual, so he smiled and said, "It's okay."
Qiqi said: "Come and eat."
Hu Xiaotian thought to himself, what on earth is this little girl planning? Who cares about her, he has been hungry all day long, so he will eat first. He didn’t say much, sat down to eat, and Qiqi poured him a glass of wine.
: "How is the progress with the Tianji Bureau?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "There is no progress." He drank the wine in the glass, and then said: "Xiao Yinzi said that you have something urgent to do with me, but it doesn't seem like it!"
Qiqi giggled: "If I didn't say that, how would you be willing to come here obediently?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "You are the princess, how dare I turn a deaf ear to your summons?"
Qiqi said: "If something happened, it did happen. Grand Master Wen came over again in the afternoon."
Hu Xiaotian frowned. This Wen Chenghuan was really lingering, and he actually haunted him: "Come to impeach me again."
Qiqi shook her head and said, "Just tell me one thing."
"What is it? Does it have to do with me?"
Qiqi said: "I heard that the Black Hu man gave you a big gift!"
Hu Xiaotian laughed: "Big gift? What big gift? Why didn't I know?"
Qiqi said: "Why pretend to be confused? Aren't they going to give the Black Beard Princess Sima to you as your little wife?"
Hu Xiaotian almost spit out the food in his mouth, coughed, and finally swallowed the food in his mouth, but his face was already red from holding it in. After taking a breath, he said: "Where did you hear this news?
?It’s just nonsense.”
Qiqi said: "That's not the case?"
"Of course it doesn't happen. I have always kept a clear distinction between public and private affairs. How could I make such a mistake? Don't listen to people's nonsense."
Qiqi said: "It may not be without reason."
Hu Xiaotian looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water: "Believe it or not, Wanyan Liexin said it, but I gave it to him immediately."
Qiqi looked at him suspiciously and said: "Princess Xima is one of the most beautiful women in Blackbeard. When you see her, you are like a cat seeing a fish. How can you not eat the fat meat in your mouth?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Another piece of ribs has been dangling in front of my eyes all day long, but I couldn't bear to move it."
Qiqi was so angry that she raised her chopsticks and hit him hard on the top of his head: "Who are you calling Paigu?"
Hu Xiaotian glanced at her chest: "Actually, I like to eat ribs."
Qiqi picked up a piece of ribs and stuffed it into his mouth: "I'll choke you to death, and I'll eat the bones too!"
Hu Xiaotian was really hungry. After filling his stomach, he took Qiqi and handed him a cup of Longjing tea. Only then did he feel much more comfortable. Being able to be taken care of by Princess Yongyang, who had all the power in the world, gave him an extraordinary sense of satisfaction.
Qiqi was obviously in a good mood, and actually showed unprecedented consideration for Hu Xiaotian, saying softly: "You are right, Wen Chenghuan is indeed speaking to Dayong." Wen Chenghuan came to impeach Hu Xiaotian twice in one day.
, the second time was not just to criticize Hu Xiaotian, but also to offend Heihu.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Between Black Hu and Dayong, this old fox obviously prefers the latter." He realized that Qiqi's mood was not greatly affected by the burning of Qiqiao Linglong Building, and said somewhat strangely: "Qiqi
Are you not angry anymore about the Qiao Linglong Building?"
Qiqi said: "Why are you angry? It's just a skull. It's not mine in the first place. If you throw it away, just throw it away."
Only then did Hu Xiaotian realize that Qiqi's announcement to the Tianji Bureau was just a show to show to Hong Beimo, and that Xiao Nizi was so scheming that even he was deceived by her.
Qiqi said: "Comparatively speaking, I am more concerned about the whereabouts of the skull stolen by Meizhuang." She originally thought that only she could understand the information in the skull, but since she met Ji Feihua at Tianlong Temple
, her concept began to waver.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Don't worry, I will find out the whereabouts of the skull as soon as possible."
Qiqi said: "If Black Hu really wants to give Princess Xima to you as his little wife, do you want it?"
Seeing that she was still entangled in this matter, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "This matter must be used by people with ulterior motives to create articles. I never said that, and Black Hu's side should not take the initiative to expose this matter.
, it is probably the Dayong side who deliberately exposed this matter behind the scenes."
Qiqi said: "How do you conclude that it is Dayong?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "As far as I know, today the eldest princess Xue Lingjun went to the Taishi Mansion to visit Wen Chenghuan. Wen Chenghuan came to see you right after and told you this. If a person remains unchanged in response to all changes, he will be invulnerable.
, They think they are smart and take the initiative, but it is easy to expose their flaws." Both Wen Chenghuan and Xue Lingjun and Hu Xiaotian are under surveillance, so if there is any movement on their side, Hu Xiaotian will know it immediately.
Qiqi said: "Are you spying on them?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's disrespectful to come and go without reciprocating. My every move is also under the surveillance of others."
Qiqi said: "So, there is indeed something wrong with this Wen Chenghuan. As a minister of Dakang, he actually does everything for other countries. It seems that we really need to check him out." After a pause, he added: "He still has
Acting Princess Xue Lingjun sent a message saying that she wanted to meet me."
"Did you promise her?"
Qiqi nodded and said, "It's unreasonable not to agree."
Hu Xiaotian said: "That way I am liberated."
Qiqi said: "I promised her to meet in five days. I hope she has enough patience."
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help laughing, Qiqi was clearly delaying on purpose.
Qiqi said: "You should be able to find out the details of both of them in five days."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Not only do we need to find out their details, but also" he paused and lowered his voice: "I'd better explain something to you first."
Qiqi said: "It's not a good thing to see you looking so bad."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm going to let people spread some rumors around."
"What rumor?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Treat others in their own way. Firstly, they spread rumors that Wen Chenghuan colluded with Da Yong to sell out the interests of Dakang. Secondly, they spread rumors that I and the eldest princess Xue Lingjun had an affair in Kangdu."
information."
Qiqi's beautiful eyes widened: "You are so shameless!"
Hu Xiaotian sighed and said: "I am not sacrificing my reputation for the sake of prosperity. Do you think I want to have a relationship with Xue Lingjun?"
Qiqi said: "She is just a slut who can do anything she wants. You are really willing to let yourself down."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's just a rumor and it's not true. Are you jealous?"
Qiqi pouted and said: "I won't be jealous of you, Hu Xiaotian, you are really insidious. This move is not only to treat others in their own way, but also to divide Li Chenzhou."
The relationship with Xue Lingjun."
Hu Xiaotian secretly praised her mind and nodded: "Yes, the eldest princess Xue Lingjun came for peace talks, but she did not represent the Yong court, but represented the interests between her and Li Chenzhou. The Emperor Xue Daoming of Dayong now treats them
The two hate each other deeply, and the forces in Dayong are also divided into two factions. Even if we negotiate for peace, we must find the right target."
Qiqi said: "Although your idea is sinister, it is still a good idea. Just do what you say."
Hu Xiaotian said: "One more thing. I think there are a lot of doubts about Hong Beimo about the Qiqiao Linglong Building today. Since he is still full of fear of you, we might as well rebuild the Shence Mansion."
Qiqi blinked her beautiful eyes. Before Hu Xiaotian left Kangdu, they had rebuilt the Shence Mansion. At that time, the old emperor Long Xuanen was still alive. However, when Hu Xiaotian went to Dongliang County later, this matter also disappeared.
Nothing has come of it, and the Shence Mansion is still in name only. Hu Xiaotian now proposes to rebuild it, and the timing is good. However, in doing so, he has set up an opposition to the Tianji Bureau.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I will take care of this matter. You don't have to worry. Hong Beimo shouldn't say anything. In his opinion, the establishment of the Shence Mansion is just your need to balance the forces of Dakang. What's more, he is now entrenched in
On top of the imperial mausoleum, there is no time to take care of other matters."
Qiqi nodded.
Being able to get the support of Qiqi is a good thing for Hu Xiaotian. There are too many things that happened today, from the burning of Qiqiao Linglong Building, to Wen Chenghuan impeaching himself twice, and Bao Bao being injured.
Things seem to have no connection on the surface, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that everything may be directed at you.
After Hu Xiaotian left the Purple Orchid Palace, he did not return to the palace, but went straight to the post house where the Black Hu mission was located. He wanted to meet Wanyan Liexin, and also found the Black Hu State Master Gang Baduo, and wanted to find out who they were and who they were as soon as possible.
Whether the incident of Qiqiao Linglong being burned has anything to do with it, and more importantly, it is necessary to find out whether Bao Bao was injured by Gambardo.
Hu Xiaotian came to the post house, but heard that Wanyan Liexin was not in the post house. Wanyan Liexin has not been idle these days, busy visiting Dakang officials and managing all aspects of relations.
Hu Xiaotian asked about Gangbaduo again. The guard in front of the door only said that the imperial master was not here. Hu Xiaotian couldn't force his way in. He left a message for Wanyan Liexin and then left the post house. How could he just give up and stay outside?
After going around in circles, he took out a mask from his pocket and covered his face. Although he was already proficient in the art of changing his face, it was still not as convenient as wearing a mask, and it did not consume any internal energy. Hu Xiaotian came to the back wall of the post house, making sure that there was no one around.
He climbed over the wall in the air and landed quietly in the post house.
