After Long Xuan'en came back to power, Hong Beimo seemed to be the first contributor to the restoration. The Tianji Bureau under his command had restored its former glory in a short period of time, and even exceeded it.
Hu Xiaotian has passed by the gate of Tianji Bureau more than once in the past, but he has never entered. Today he came here to find Bao Bao, but the banner he set was to see Hong Beimo. Hu Xiaotian and Hong Beimo had never dealt with each other.
, although there have been several confrontations, they were all in the dark.
Hu Xiaotian came today and specially brought two boxes of tea.
Hong Beimo was a little surprised when he heard that Hu Xiaotian took the initiative to ask for an audience. He was also full of curiosity about this boy. Only after Hu Xiaotian of Tianlong Temple killed many of his subordinates did Hong Beimo pay enough attention to him.
Hong Beimo asked someone to invite Hu Xiaotian to the Star Observation Pavilion. Hu Xiaotian came to the highest place in the Star Observation Pavilion and saw Hong Beimo making tea with his own hands in the Star Observation Pavilion. Judging from his appearance, this middle-aged man with a pale appearance
There is no trace of domineering in the person, but instead makes people feel the gentle and graceful demeanor of a gentleman.
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "Commander Hu, please take a seat."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and put down the two boxes of tea in his hands: "It's your first time visiting, so small gifts are not a sign of respect."
Hong Beimo smiled calmly and said, "Commander Hu is really polite."
He poured the cooked tea soup into a blue and white porcelain tea cup. The clear yellow color of the tea was pleasing to the eye, and a scent of tea quietly spread in the stargazing pavilion, making people feel refreshed and refreshed.
Hong Beimo handed one of the cups of tea to Hu Xiaotian with both hands. With his current identity and status, doing so showed enough courtesy and attention to Hu Xiaotian. Hu Xiaotian hurriedly reached out to take it and smelled the fragrance of the tea.
, he closed his eyes in some intoxication and said: "Good tea!"
Hong Beimo said: "For good tea, you need to see its color and smell, and the most important thing is to taste it in the mouth. If the first two are done, the expectations of the tea drinker will be too high, but after entering the throat, it will be nothing more than that.
You will definitely be disappointed.”
Hu Xiaotian took a sip of the tea, and a faint fragrance quietly penetrated into his throat. The aroma completely evaporated to the extreme, and he felt that his internal organs were immersed in the rich aroma of the tea. It was so comfortable that the pores all over his body seemed to be opened.
, Hu Xiaotian had to admit that he had never drunk such delicious tea in his life. After tasting it for a long time, he praised it again: "Good tea!"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Hong Beimo's lips. Even if he was on the opposite side, he still wanted to hear praise. Sometimes, praise from enemies is more credible than praise from friends.
Hu Xiaotian opened his eyes and said: "Mr. Hong's tea art is the first one Xiaotian has ever seen in his life."
Hong Beimo said: "How can there be any number one in the world? Things in this world are complicated and endless. The places we see do not represent the entire world. Sitting in the stargazing pavilion, we only see each other.
But apart from you and me, there are still millions of people in this world. It’s not that they don’t exist. It’s just that our vision is limited.”
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Mr. Hong's words are profound. Listening to his words is worth reading ten years of sages' books."
Hong Beimo said: "Commander Hu, you are so proud of me." He slowly put down the tea cup and said calmly: "Commander Hu, what do you want to ask for when you come to visit me this time?"
Hu Xiaotian was about to speak but stopped.
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. You and I are ministers in the same palace. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong, can you let me meet Bao Bao?" For a smart man like Hong Beimo, it's better to put forward your ideas directly.
Hong Beimo said: "Okay!" Then he raised his voice and said: "Go and find Baobao."
Hu Xiaotian did not expect that Hong Beimo would agree so happily, and was quite surprised. However, thinking that he was about to see Bao Bao, who had been away for a long time, he couldn't help but get excited.
Hong Beimo said casually: "Princess Yongyang came to see me two days ago. She said some things, but Hong is still confused until now."
"What's up?"
Hong Beimo said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess accused me of sending someone to assassinate Commander Hu."
It should be said that this meeting with Hong Beimo was quite unexpected. Hu Xiaotian originally thought that Hong Beimo would avoid this matter. After all, the assassination was planned by him. He should have avoided it with a guilty conscience, but he did not expect that Hong Beimo would take the initiative to mention it.
about this.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "There has been such a thing. Several people wanted to plot to harm me. Fortunately, I discovered it. Otherwise, I am afraid that Xiaotian will never have the opportunity to sit with Mr. Hong and drink tea. I wonder if they were influenced by
Where is Mr. Hong’s instruction?”
Hong Beimo looked at Hu Xiaotian with a smile and said, "It's a long story. They were indeed sent by me, and I ordered them to eradicate you."
Hu Xiaozhen was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Hong Beimo would dare to admit it in front of him. He nodded without any anger on his face: "Why did Mr. Hong do this?" It seemed that he was talking about someone who had nothing to do with him.
Like everyone else, Hu Xiaotian has become calmer after experiencing so many storms.
Hong Beimo secretly praised that this boy is very unusual. He calmly refilled the tea for Hu Xiaotian, poured another cup himself, took a sip of tea and then said: "Because I didn't fully realize Commander Hu's abilities in the past.
Important, I think you are just a dispensable figure."
This reason was once again beyond Hu Xiaotian's expectation. Hong Beimo is really a person who can create surprises for others.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Just because of this reason, you want to kill me?"
Hong Beimo said: "Although you received a reward from the emperor for your mission to Dayong, you should know whether the mission was successful or not. Although you protected Princess Anping and arrived at Yongdu, there were heavy casualties on the way. Even Taishi Wen
My precious son was also killed in the Yongjiang River. You should bear some responsibility for these things. When you arrived in Yongdu, did you think you could hide what you did from the world? You first treated the Queen Mother of Dayong, and then cured her.
The Emperor of Dayong, Xue Shengkang, was in an emergency. If you hadn't taken action, Xue Shengkang would have been in grave danger, right? If he died, the country of Dayong would be in chaos, and the northern border of Dayong would not be endangered in a short period of time. What you do is tantamount to harming the country.
Kang’s interests.”
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong thinks so and I can't help it." He said in his heart that the old emperor didn't blame me. What do you think? But the fact that this matter spread to Dakang so quickly proved that it was most likely leaked by Dayong.
After hearing the news, they wanted to use the hands of Da Kang to eradicate themselves.
Hong Beimo said: "As for the murder of the princess later, it was your responsibility. Although you can blame it on Dayong, do you think the emperor would really be so confused?"
Hu Xiaotian sighed and said: "According to what Mr. Hong said, I really deserve to die. In that case, why don't you go to the emperor and just ask the emperor to order me to die? Why do you need to use such a shady method?"
Hong Beimo said: "Please forgive me for speaking frankly, but you are not old enough to attract the Emperor's attention."
Hu Xiaotian's face became a little hot because of these words, "Hong Beimo, Hong Beimo, I have deceived you, you are too arrogant."
Hong Beimo said: "These things I just mentioned, no matter which one of them is enough to condemn you to death, if Princess Yongyang hadn't come forward to protect you, do you think you can be your deputy commander of the imperial guard with ease?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "In Mr. Hong's eyes, I am a gangster with no redeeming qualities."
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "I used to think so, but now..." He shook his head and said: "I have to say that Commander Hu has created many surprises for me!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Is it a crime of deceiving the emperor by letting Chi Feixing pretend to be the emperor?"
Hong Beimo smiled and said: "If the emperor doesn't nod, how can I dare to do that?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "The emperor won't know that you sent people to look for "Qiankun Kaiwu" everywhere in Tianlong Temple, right?"
Hong Beimo said: "It seems that you don't understand me. The existence of Tianji Bureau is to protect the interests of the Kang Dynasty. Hong is loyal to the emperor and has no doubts. Everything Hong does will be reported in advance.
emperor."
"Including killing me?"
Hong Beimo looked at Hu Xiaotian with deep eyes and said, "You really don't know that the Jinling Xu family has rejected the emperor's request?"
Hu Xiaotian was startled in his heart. He did not know about this. Long Xuanen had always hoped that the Jinling Xu family would help them when the Dakang Dynasty was in danger of life and death, and would lend overseas trade routes to the royal family for use through overseas trade.
To alleviate the food shortage in Dakang. If what Hong Beimo said is true, then grandma Wuxin has rejected the emperor's request. Who gave her such confidence? Didn't she think about the consequences of rejecting the emperor? Didn't she think about her
The life of his daughter, son-in-law, and grandson? Hu Xiaotian was confused for a moment. How could this old lady he had never met be so cold-blooded?
Hong Beimo sighed and said: "According to the emperor's wishes, both your father and son should be dead now."
Hu Xiaotian's expression remained unchanged, and he thought to himself, why did Qi Qi not tell him about such a big thing? Was it because she didn't know or it had never happened at all? Could Hong Beimo be alarmist and deliberately intimidating himself? Thinking of this, he smiled and said:
"So Mr. Hong staged an assassination show?"
Hong Beimo said: "I have to give some warning to those who are disobedient, but I didn't expect Commander Hu to have practiced martial arts to such an extent. It's really surprising."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong still wants to kill me now?"
Hong Beimo shook his head and said: "The Emperor has changed his mind again." Although he did not directly deny it, he mentioned the Emperor in every sentence, which was equivalent to telling Hu Xiaotian that the person who wanted to kill you was not me, and the person who doesn't want to kill you now is not him.
not me.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Then I really want to thank Mr. Hong."
Hong Beimo stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Hong has always wanted to find an opportunity to clear up the misunderstanding, but I didn't expect it to come so soon." He stood up slowly: "Baobao is here, let's talk!" (To be completed.)
