Ji Feihua noticed the difference in his expression and whispered, "What are you thinking about?"
Hu Xiaotian did not hide anything and told Ji Feihua his suspicions in a low voice.
Ji Feihua said: "It's very possible, but why did he ask you to accompany him to Tianlong Temple?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm also confused. I haven't had much dealings with the old emperor." He and Hong Beimo were strangers, so why would these two people plot against him?
Ji Feihua said: "Long Xuanen is very cunning in his work. He can't ask you to accompany him here for no reason." After thinking for a moment, he whispered: "If he wants to get out of today's predicament, he must rely on the help of the Xu family of Jinling. Could it be that
When he brought you to Tianlong Temple, his real intention was to send a signal to the Xu family?"
Hu Xiaotian didn't say anything, but he had a general idea in his mind. After Ji Feihua told him this old incident, he suddenly understood that there was a complicated relationship between the Chu family, the Xu family and the royal family, which was constantly being resolved and turned into chaos.
Ji Feihua said: "Long Xuanen is finally going to attack the Xu family in Jinling."
Hu Xiaotian said: "He claimed to borrow grain from the Xu family, and his purpose was to ask the Xu family to provide him with this overseas trade route."
Ji Feihua chuckled and said, "Old Mrs. Xu may not be willing to agree."
Hu Xiaotian was slightly startled, how could Ji Feihua be so sure? Suddenly he remembered that he had asked his mother to return to Jinling before, and also entrusted her to send a letter to his grandmother. Could it be that he had also considered this matter?
Ji Feihua said: "Although I want to destroy the Long family, I have never thought about destroying Dakang. Even if Long Yelin does not usurp the throne, Dakang's country will inevitably decline. Long Xuan'en is obsessed with the way of immortality.
, has no interest in government affairs at all, and appoints treacherous people. He listens to slander, and has squandered all his ancestral family property after controlling the government for decades, and the country is in danger. At this time, he will become desperate and will no longer have any scruples."
Hu Xiaotian said: "You mean he is determined to attack the Xu family?"
Ji Feihua said: "Old Mrs. Xu is an extremely strong person. She was able to lead a group of orphans and widows to create such a huge family business. Her extraordinary ability is evident. After the Chu Yuanhai corruption case, she and the Dakang court
After they parted ways, Long Xuanen coveted the Xu family's property, but because Xu Lingkong was still alive in this world, he never dared to attack the Xu family."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Why did you ask my mother to go back and deliver the letter?"
Ji Feihua said: "It's not just Long Xuan'en who covets the Xu family's wealth, but also Long Yelin. Famine is everywhere in Dakang, mourners are everywhere, and the national treasury is empty. If you want to get rid of this predicament, you can only rely on the Xu family of Jinling, and
Mrs. Xu never said anything from the beginning to the end, and even when Hu's house was ransacked, she never stood up and said a word for your family."
Hu Xiaotian secretly sighed in his heart, his grandmother was really cruel and wise in protecting herself. In order to avoid implicating the Xu family, she even ignored her own daughter and son-in-law.
Ji Feihua said: "Many ministers have proposed to deal with your mother to put pressure on the Xu family. I once promised you to take good care of your parents. But a person's energy is limited after all, and I am worried that there will be an accident
, so I asked Wu Renxing to send Mrs. Hu to the Xu family in Jinling in advance, and help me bring a letter to Mrs. Xu."
Hu Xiaotian was quite curious about the content of Ji Feihua's letter and asked in a low voice: "What did you write in the letter?"
Ji Feihua did not answer, but said softly: "What Dakang wants is not only the Xu family's wealth. What is more important is the Xu family's business routes to overseas. Of course Mrs. Xu understands this. If she agrees to the imperial court's request, she will definitely
It will offend many enemies, such as Dayong and the Li family of Xichuan. In their eyes, Dakang has become a lamb to be slaughtered."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's just that if Dakang is finished, wouldn't the Xu family be finished too?"
Ji Feihua said: "It seems that you don't understand the affairs of the Xu family. The Xu family only has a house in Dakang. Mrs. Xu is far-sighted and has already turned the center of her business overseas. The Xu family's property is also distributed in various countries.
Even if the imperial court ordered the Xu family to be confiscated, they would only be able to obtain a small part of the Xu family's property. The real wealth of the Xu family is not the gold and silver fields, but the business routes and relationships they have developed over the years. Even if the imperial court ordered the Xu family to be confiscated,
Even if all the property in Dakang is taken away, as long as one person from the Xu family is around, they can restore their former glory in a short time. This is the power of the Xu family."
Although Hu Xiaotian knew that his grandmother was powerful, he never thought that she was so powerful. However, judging from the Hu family's experience in the past two years, grandma did not attach too much importance to their life and death. Since she can take the Xu family of Jinling
Being brought to the current situation, her mind and vision must be beyond everyone else. Maybe she has already expected that the court will not dare to kill the Hu family easily. Maybe she is not willing to involve the entire Xu family in Jinling for the sake of the Hu family.
In the midst of turmoil.
At this time, Hu Xiaotian's stomach growled, but he hadn't eaten since he made two steamed buns at noon. In addition, he was forced to do hard work for so long by Bu Wu in the afternoon, so he was already hungry. Hu Xiaotian was a little embarrassed.
He said: "Sorry, I'm so hungry."
Ji Feihua couldn't help but smile and said softly: "I still have some food here." He stood up and walked to the corner, taking out a cloth bag from the niche with steamed buns and a gourd filled with water.
Hu Xiaotian wiped his hands on his body, took a steamed bun and ate it in big gulps. He took two mouthfuls and then drank a mouthful of mountain spring water. When he saw Ji Feihua sitting aside and looking at him, he said a little embarrassedly: "Brother Ji, what are you doing?"
Don’t want to eat?”
"I'm not hungry!"
Hu Xiaotian ate the steamed bun in just a few bites and did not eat the second one. There were only two steamed buns in the bag. If he had finished eating them all, Ji Feihua would be hungry.
Ji Feihua guessed what he was thinking, handed him the second steamed bun and said, "You can eat it, I'm really not hungry."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm not hungry anymore. Are these steamed buns and water brought to you by the evil monk?"
Ji Feihua nodded.
"You knew him in the past?"
Ji Feihua shook his head and said: "I didn't meet him until I came here, and I offered to use my martial arts skills in exchange for him to help me."
"Infinite Jue?"
Ji Feihua smiled and said, "You seem to know a lot of things."
Hu Xiaotian pursed his lips, and after a while he said: "Is there anything you want me to help with?"
Ji Feihua shook his head and said: "You can't help me with my matter, and no one can help me. Just pretend you haven't met me, just pretend I'm dead. After you go back, you must remember Long Xuanen
Hong Beimo is by no means a kind person, and Hong Beimo is even more ambitious. Judging from the current situation of Dakang, their only hope of reviving Dakang lies in the Xu family of Jinling, so..." Clear eyes stared at Hu Xiaotian's eyes
Head: "If you have a chance, go as far as possible. Staying in Dakang will only become their bargaining chip."
Hu Xiaotian was moved in his heart. Ji Feihua really cared about him. Even though he had fallen to this point, the first thing he thought about was still his own safety. Thinking about the many things he had concealed from him before, he couldn't help but feel ashamed. He made up his mind
Determined: "Actually, I also hid things from you in the past."
Ji Feihua said calmly: "In that kind of environment, it's normal for you not to trust me. Let him let the past go. There is no need to mention it again."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I have known for a long time that Li Yuncong is the old emperor's man."
Ji Feihua was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and then showed a faint smile: "He must be coercing you to do things for him."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Do you still remember the secret passages under Siyuan Bureau? One of them leads to the library. I accidentally discovered this secret and was broken into by Li Yuncong. He originally wanted to kill me, but afterwards
But he changed his mind. Instead of killing me and silencing me, he gave me the inner strength and mental skills to help me resolve the ten years of inner energy that Quan De'an forcibly injected into my body. In exchange, he asked me to help him go to Piaomiao Mountain to find out about the old man.
The situation of the emperor."
Ji Feihua narrowed her eyes: "You should have accompanied Princess Long Xiyue of Anping to the Miaoshan Lingxiao Palace on the 30th of the twelfth lunar month last year."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Yes!"
Ji Feihua said: "The inspection at Lingxiao Palace is very strict. Murong Zhan is a shrewd person. How did you hide from his inspection?"
Hu Xiaotian understood that what Ji Feihua was referring to was his pretending to be an eunuch. He smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "Quan De'an taught me the skill of carrying yin and shrinking yang when he sent me to the palace. I have never practiced it."
It worked. But the situation forced me to do it, and I was worried about being exposed, so I gave it a try, and it actually succeeded."
Ji Feihua nodded and said: "Murong Zhan betrayed me probably after that day. I have never figured it out. Why did Murong Zhan betray me, and how did Long Xuanen get in touch with the outside world? It seems that the problem started at the beginning
It just comes from you."
Hu Xiaotian said: "But I didn't send a message to the old emperor at that time."
Ji Feihua said: "Just because you don't have it, it doesn't mean that others have it."
Hu Xiaotian was stunned when he heard this. He had never doubted Princess Anping. How could Long Xiyue, who was so simple and kind, do such a big thing without telling him? Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Impossible, Long Xuanen almost killed her at that time.
Princess Anping is dead, if I hadn't rushed in in time, I'm afraid he would have strangled his own daughter to death."
Ji Feihua said: "Where does that tunnel connect to? You can find it out, but Li Yuncong can't find it out? There is only one person who has the ability to instigate Murong Zhan against me and can hide it from me, and that is Long Xuanen. On the surface, he is...
Lingxiao Palace pretended to be crazy, but it was always waiting for the opportunity. The time when Princess Anping went to visit, he must have conveyed information from outside the palace. Then there was Qiqi. I was always on guard against the rebellion of the princes and grandsons, but I never thought that in the end
It’s still a matter of distance.”
Hu Xiaotian believed that Qiqi would take advantage of the visit to get in touch with the old emperor and collude with each other, but he still couldn't believe that Long Xiyue would do the same, but he knew deep down in his heart that Long Xiyue did do this.
The reason is that Long Xuanen is her biological father after all. Seeing her biological father in jail, how can a woman remain indifferent? But if she really did that in the first place, why didn't she tell herself the truth? Could it be that she had never truly cared about herself?
