Hu Xiaotian said: "Your Excellency, you are too generous. It is our duty to escort the princess to Yongdu to get married at your Majesty's order. I thought that after the princess got married, she would have a happy life, and that Dakang and Dayong would always be friends."
, but I didn’t expect that the princess would encounter an unprovoked misfortune in Yongdu..." At this point, he looked sad and put down the wine glass he had picked up. Although he did not take credit, he did not take responsibility for himself, as far as this mission was concerned.
, should be regarded as a successful completion. As for the death of Princess Anping, it happened after arriving in Yongdu, and Dayong should bear full responsibility.
Zhao Dengyun said: "It is said that Dayong general Huo Shengnan killed Princess Anping out of jealousy and hatred?"
After the assassination of Princess Anping, Dayong announced the results of the investigation to the public, and now it is known to the whole world.
Hu Xiaotian said: "All the murderers of the princess were killed on the spot, but Huo Shengnan had already escaped without a trace."
Zhao Wusheng said at the side: "This Huo Shengnan is the number one female general of Dayong. She once made great military exploits for Dayong, but I didn't expect that her heart would be so vicious that she dared to murder Princess Anping."
Zhao Dengyun sighed and said: "The princess was kind-hearted, but had a bad fate. She ended up with such a miserable end. It's really sad to think about it."
Zhao Wusheng was full of grief and anger and said: "If I catch Huo Shengnan, I will definitely cut her into pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart."
Hu Xiaotian secretly sneered in his heart, you mean, if you really dare to go against Shengnan, I will not let you go first, but this Zhao Wusheng should be very important, since Ji Feihua values him no less than
I originally asked him to support me here and did some tricks in secret. He was the culprit that caused the shipwreck. I was very wary of Zhao Wusheng and Hu Xiaotian. After all, this person probably knew that Wen Boyuan's death was related to me. He picked up the things in front of him.
After drinking a glass of wine, he said: "Since what happened, it is irreversible. The Zajia family now only wants to escort the princess's ashes back to Kangdu as soon as possible and report to the emperor. No matter how the emperor punishes me, the Zajia family will not have any complaints.
"
Zhao Dengyun said: "If Master Wu, the Minister of Rites, was also on the mission with Eunuch Hu, why was it that only Master Hu came back?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "This matter is difficult to explain. I will explain it to the emperor when I return to the capital." The implication is that you, Zhao Dengyun, are not qualified to know about this matter. However, he has already asked Wu Jingshan and others to return to Dakang in advance. Judging from Zhao Dengyun's question
, Wu Jingshan may still not have come to Wuxing County, or he may have arrived but did not dare to make it public. Wu Jingshan is such a sophisticated person. Before the situation becomes clear, he may hide his identity, fade out of public view, and quietly wait for news about himself.
Zhao Dengyun said: "Eunuch Hu doesn't know yet?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "What do you know?"
Zhao Dengyun slowly placed the wine glass in his hand on the table and said: "Something big has happened in the capital!"
Hu Xiaotian was most concerned about this matter. He wished that Zhao Dengyun would take the initiative to mention this matter, so he pretended to be nervous and said: "What's the big deal?"
Zhao Dengyun lowered his voice and said: "The emperor has lost his mind and gone crazy!"
Hu Xiaotian had already heard the news. Naturally, he was not surprised, and even pretended to be extremely concerned: "How could it be like this? How could it be like this!"
Zhao Dengyun said: "It's not like I was harmed by someone."
Hu Xiaotian took a breath and said, "Who dares to be so bold and dare to murder the emperor?"
Zhao Dengyun said: "Who else? Besides Ji Feihua, that ambitious eunuch, who has such courage?"
Hu Xiaotian's heart sank. Zhao Dengyun openly insulted Ji Feihua in front of him. If something had not happened to Ji Feihua, he would never have had the courage. Thinking of the news he heard on the deck of the merchant ship yesterday, he had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be that something really happened to Ji Feihua? In Hu Xiaotian's mind, Ji Feihua has always been regarded as an almost invincible existence. Not only because Ji Feihua has a martial arts that has reached the realm of perfection, but also because he has a mind that is almost as intelligent as a demon and a ruthless heart.
With iron-blooded tactics, it is not easy to deal with such a person.
After Zhao Dengyun finished cursing these words, he quietly observed Hu Xiaotian's expression from the corner of his eyes and scolded Ji Feihua as an eunuch and Hu Xiaotian as well. And almost everyone knew that Hu Xiaotian was Ji Feihua's popular man.
The person who entered this marriage history was personally sponsored by Ji Feihua. Ji Feihua was Hu Xiaotian’s backer, but now his backer has fallen. Let’s see where you, the little eunuch, will go?
Hu Xiaotian's face was indeed ugly, and there was no need to hide it. There was no point in pretending to be calm. He pursed his lips and said, "What do you mean, Lord Admiral?"
Zhao Dengyun smiled and said: "It is said that Mr. Hu is well-versed in everything in the palace, so he can have both sides. He can stand out in the palace in such a short time. He not only wins the trust of Ji Feihua, but also the trust of the emperor. Haven't you heard yet?
Do you understand what I mean?" His words didn't sound like a compliment, they were obviously sarcastic.
Zhao Wusheng said: "Ji Feihua conspired to rebel. Fortunately, the Queen and His Royal Highness discovered it in time and united with the important officials in the court to crush his plan. Now Ji Feihua has his head displayed outside the Meridian Gate as a warning to others."
Hu Xiaotian was now certain that Ji Feihua was defeated, but he still did not believe that Ji Feihua would die so easily, let alone be defeated at the hands of Queen Jian and Long Tingsheng. Hu Xiaotian said: "As long as the emperor is fine!
"At this time, he was in a state of confusion. Ji Feihua, the most powerful person in his heart, was defeated so suddenly. This news completely disrupted Hu Xiaotian's originally planned response plan. If Ji Feihua was really dead,
Then my future was uncertain, and I didn't know what fate I would face when I returned to Kangdu. Thinking of this, I suddenly lost my mood to drink, and after a few perfunctory words, I left the table and said goodbye.
Zhao Dengyun did not try to persuade him to stay. He looked coldly at Hu Xiaotian's leaving figure, drank the wine in one gulp, then placed the empty cup heavily on the stone table, and said to Zhao Wusheng: "Don't let him leave Wuxing alive!"
"Yes!" After Zhao Wusheng said this, he remembered something again: "But the princess's ashes are still in his hands."
Zhao Dengyun said calmly: "What's the difficulty? Just say that I want to keep vigil for the princess all night to fulfill my duty as a minister. I don't think he will refuse."
Zhao Wusheng said: "Uncle really has a clever plan. Let's have people ambush in the mourning hall in advance. As long as he puts down the ashes, we will arrest him."
Zhao Dengyun nodded with a sneer on his lips.
Huo Shengnan was a little curious when he saw Hu Xiaotian coming back so early, and said softly: "Why are you back so soon? How many more drinks did you have without your colleagues?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Something seems to be wrong, let's leave immediately!"
"What?" Huo Shengnan was deeply puzzled, but since Hu Xiaotian made such a decision, he certainly had his reasons and immediately started packing his luggage.
When Huo Shengnan was packing his things, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door. Hu Xiaotian was startled. He didn't expect it to come so soon. He was secretly annoyed. Zhao Dengyun was also a two-faced villain. He had just had a drink with him and had a good time. In the blink of an eye,
He was about to attack himself, could it be because of Ji Feihua? He was arrested as an accomplice of Ji Feihua and sent to the court to receive a reward? Judging from the footsteps outside, there were at least twenty people ambushing around the courtyard.
Zhao Dengyun still underestimated himself, thinking that he was just a powerless eunuch.
Returning to the room, Huo Shengnan had already packed his luggage: "How is the situation?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's been surrounded outside."
Huo Shengnan said: "In the worst case, let's kill him!"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head, thinking to himself that this Zhao Dengyun is so strange. Even if I am Ji Feihua's confidant, there is no need for him to deal with me. After all, I still bear the identity of Dakang's remarriage history, and I still have the ashes of Princess Anping in my hand.
, are you treating me like this just to express your loyalty to the court?
At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and Zhao Wusheng's voice was heard: "Is Mr. Hu here?"
Hu Xiaotian was startled. He didn't expect that Zhao Wusheng would dare to come over. Did he really think that he was unaware of what was going on outside? He winked at Huo Shengnan, got up and went outside again, opened the door, and saw Zhao Wusheng standing at the door with a smile.
outside.
Zhao Wusheng clasped his fists and said, "I'm really sorry to disturb Mr. Hu's rest so late."
Hu Xiaotian said: "The Za family always sleeps late, so it's not a disturbance. I wonder what General Zhao wants to see me for?"
Zhao Wusheng said: "The Admiral has specially set up a mourning hall in the mansion to house the ashes of His Highness the Princess. Her spirit has come to Wuxing County. As a minister, it is the duty of a minister to keep vigil for Her Highness the Princess. I hope Master Hu will fulfill his wishes."
Hu Xiaotian understood what he meant. He wanted to ask for Princess Anping's ashes from him. After taking away the ashes, he could attack him unscrupulously. He sneered secretly in his heart and was about to refuse.
But I heard Zhao Wusheng use a voice transmission to enter the secret passage: "Master Hu, Zhao Dengyun wants to kill you!"
Hu Xiaotian was shocked and stared at Zhao Wusheng's eyes. Zhao Wusheng did not avoid his sharp gaze and looked at Hu Xiaotian openly and said: "He was entrusted by Grand Master Wen Chenghuan to kill you on the way back.
Die. According to his instructions, I have already ambushed twenty archers outside. Mr. Hu, don’t panic, he won’t take action yet. You send the princess’s ashes to the mourning hall, and he will take it with his own hands. Then it will be your capture.
The best time to capture him, take him as a hostage when he is not prepared, and then have a chance to escape from Wuxing County."
Hu Xiaotian used voice transmission to enter the secret passage: "Why do you want to help me?"
Zhao Wusheng said: "Eunuch Ji has saved my life. I will tell you the details later. There are 50,000 soldiers stationed in Wuxing County. Unless you capture Zhao Dengyun, you two will never escape."
Opportunity."
Hu Xiaotian still had some hesitation in his heart. He didn't know that Zhao Wusheng didn't deliberately set a trap to paralyze him.
Zhao Wusheng said: "Time is running out. Now the four gates of Wuxing County are closed tightly, and all major intersections leaving the Admiral's Mansion have been completely blocked. This is all Wu Sheng can do."
Hu Xiaotian pursed his lips, and Dang Duan continued to be disturbed. If Zhao Wusheng wanted to set up a trap, he didn't have to go to the trouble of coming in person. He came alone. He and Huo Shengnan had every chance of capturing him and using him as a hostage. At that moment He nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go with you!"
