Hu Xiaotian said: "To be honest with the emperor, I was engaged to Li Wuyou, the daughter of the Li family, and was implicated in the Li family's independence in Xichuan. I feel that I am not a suitable candidate to go to Xichuan as an envoy."
Long Xuan'en said: "I know this. The reason why the Li family of Xichuan established themselves in the first place was to send troops to serve the king. Li Tianheng has always been loyal, how can he be willing to be a reviled traitor?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "In that case, why is he still unwilling to return to Dakang?"
Long Xuanen smiled and said: "It's just because he has doubts and worries that I will hold him responsible for separatizing Xichuan in the past." He took out a letter from his sleeve, waved it in front of Hu Xiaotian and said: "I have decided to send you to go out.
The reason is because he received his secret letter, in which Li Tianheng clearly expressed his willingness to join Dakang."
Hu Xiaotian was startled, but he had never heard of this matter. Li Tianheng actually took the initiative to write a letter expressing his willingness to surrender.
Long Xuan'en said: "Looking at all the officials in the dynasty, there are not many that I can really trust. This trip to Xichuan has a heavy responsibility. To make Li Tianheng king, I need a candidate with appropriate status. After much thought, you are the only one I can trust."
It’s just the past that’s appropriate.”
Hu Xiaotian cursed in his heart, "It's weird to believe you. Who knows if the letter in your hand is true?"
Long Xuan'en said: "Xichuan is not only the southwest gateway of Dakang, but also an important granary of Dakang. Having Xichuan can alleviate Dakang's "Chang"Feng"Wen"Xue, w☆≯wx grain shortage, Hu Xiaotian, you
Are you willing to serve Dakang, and are you willing to be loyal to me?"
Hu Xiaotian said loudly: "I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty even if I die!"
Long Xuanen's face was filled with joy and he stroked his beard and said, "I knew you would not let me down."
After coming out of the old emperor's place, Hu Xiaotian went straight to the library, hoping to get some information from Li Yuncong. The relationship between the old eunuch and the old emperor was extraordinary. Perhaps he could learn about Long Xuanen's true purpose.
Li Yuncong's complexion was obviously much better than before. Just because he lost one eye, his expression was no longer as kind as before, and looked a little ferocious. When he saw Hu Xiaotian coming, Li Yuncong said with a sinister smile: "It turns out that this is the future.
My consort, I don’t know what kind of wind brought you here today.”
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "You are always making fun of me!"
Li Yuncong said: "Don't dare. The Zajia is just a servant in the palace. Commander Hu is now the emperor's consort. How dare the Zajia ridicule the future prince-in-law."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Who knows what will happen in the future? Just like people don't know when they will get sick or when they will die."
Li Yuncong's single eye flashed with an extremely complicated light: "What you said seems to be very pessimistic."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Others don't know it, but you still don't know it. I only have half a year to live. Even if I am engaged to Princess Yongyang, I may not be lucky enough to live to marry her." He paused and said: "
All this is thanks to you, old man."
Li Yuncong sighed and said, "I didn't expect you still hate me in your heart."
Hu Xiaotian said: "You can't blame others for your miserable life. Xiaotian came here specifically to bid farewell to Eunuch Li."
Li Yuncong said in shock: "You want to leave?"
Hu Xiaotian saw that his expression did not look fake. He probably did not know that the old emperor sent him as an envoy to Xichuan. He nodded and said: "The emperor sent me as an envoy to Xichuan to congratulate Li Tianheng on his fiftieth birthday and by the way, make him king.
What? Eunuch Li doesn’t know?"
Li Yuncong frowned and said: "It has been many days since the emperor returned to the throne. Li Tianheng not only did not lead his troops to submit, but he did not even show the slightest expression. What's the matter? This time, the emperor actually took the initiative to canonize him as king? And he also sent you.
Congratulate him on his birthday?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I don't understand either. The emperor said that Li Tianheng had sent a letter to express his willingness to submit to Dakang and re-integrate Xichuan into Dakang's territory. That's why he sent me there."
Li Yuncong shook his head and said: "Everyone doesn't understand political matters, and I never ask about it." He also guessed that Hu Xiaotian's purpose of coming here was to get information from him.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Eunuch Li is very loyal to the emperor. If he hadn't risked his own life, the emperor would not have returned to the throne."
Li Yuncong said: "The Za family dare not take credit. The emperor is able to achieve this today because of himself."
Hu Xiaotian said: "The emperor's heart is unpredictable. It is hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse that the emperor sends me to Xichuan this time."
Li Yuncong looked at Hu Xiaotian and said, "Do you suspect that the emperor will be unfavorable to you?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's not that I'm over-concerned. It's that I'm afraid that the emperor is over-concerned. I'm worried that the emperor will be angry with our Hu family because of the Jinling Xu family's refusal to borrow food."
Li Yuncong said: "It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that cannot be avoided. If the emperor is really angry, there will be nothing the Za family can do to help him."
Hu Xiaotian suddenly asked: "Does Eunuch Li know that the emperor and Chu Fufeng were sworn brothers back then?"
Li Yuncong was startled when he heard this: "What?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I heard this news from a blind monk in Tianlong Temple."
Li Yuncong said with a gloomy face: "Why didn't you say it before?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Eunuch Li didn't tell me his true intention of sneaking into Tianlong Temple. If you want others to be sincere, you must first show sincerity yourself, don't you think so?"
Li Yuncong snorted and said nothing, but he knew in his heart that this boy must have discovered some secrets in Tianlong Temple, and there must be many things he was hiding from him.
Hu Xiaotian said: "The monk's Dharma name is Buwu, he is the weirdo I told you. He asked about the missing three secret books in the Sutra Pavilion of Tianlong Temple and then killed the false emperor and left. It was he who told
When I mentioned these things, I also said that there was another Xu Lingkong who was sworn sworn brother to the emperor back then."
Li Yuncong said: "Zhajia has never heard of these things."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Then "Qiankun Kaiwu" is really so magical? The emperor and Hong Beimo actually spent so much energy to find the missing Alchemy Cauldron. Does it really record the way to immortality? Otherwise, why would they search for the whole book?
Forty years?”
Li Yuncong said coldly: "What else have you heard?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Bu Wu is very good at martial arts and almost killed me. It was he who discovered that I was practicing void martial arts instead of some formless magic."
Li Yuncong couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, and whispered: "What else did he say?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "He said that the reason why he was trapped in Tianlong Temple for thirty years was all thanks to his brother. Back then, his brother killed his family and deceived him into Tianlong Temple, causing him to be imprisoned.
The monk was trapped, but his brother took the opportunity to steal several secret books from Tianlong Temple." Now Hu Xiaotian is completely sure that Li Yuncong is the person who killed Bu Wu back then, and he is Bu Wu's brother.
Li Yuncong's one eye was fierce, looking at Hu Xiaotian with murderous intent and said: "What did you say again?"
There was no fear on Hu Xiaotian's face, and he said with a smile: "He told me that his brother was called Mu Yuming, and asked me if I had ever seen this person? But at that time, he didn't know what secret book Tianlong Temple had lost, let alone
Among them is "Void", otherwise I might not be able to leave Tianlong Temple alive."
Li Yuncong said: "Very good..."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Muzi is Li, and rain comes from the clouds. He is extremely smart. If he is really smart, he will not give such a simple name, so that people can think of his true identity after a little thought."
Li Yuncong gritted his teeth and sneered.
Hu Xiaotian said: "He also said that his brother's crotch has a very big thing. It may not be easy to hide such an obvious thing, but if a person wants to save his life, he can do anything.
, maybe he will kill himself with a knife and end everything, Eunuch Li, are you right?"
Li Yuncong squeezed out two words from between his teeth and said: "Not bad!" He already understood that Hu Xiaotian knew his identity very well.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Do you really want to kill me and silence me now?"
Li Yuncong nodded and said: "I really want to think about it, it's just extremely thought-provoking."
Hu Xiaotian sighed and said: "It's a pity that you were injured by Ji Feihua. Not only did you become a one-eyed dragon, but your martial arts were greatly reduced. Although I only had half a year left to live, by chance, I went to Tianlong Temple and my internal martial arts increased several times.
The Tao is that boxing is afraid of young people. If you want to kill a person who is not afraid of death, you must first not be afraid of death." At this point, he shook his head again and said: "If you are not afraid of death, why have you endured the humiliation and stayed in this palace for thirty years?
"
Li Yuncong smiled and said: "You have forgotten one thing. A lot of things can be changed in thirty years. The Za family might have been afraid of death back then, but now they have nothing to fear."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's easy to change the situation, but it's hard to change the nature, but you don't have to be afraid. Although you tricked me and harmed me, I still repay evil with kindness in the end. When Bu Wu asked me where I learned the knowledge of Kong Kong, I told him..."
When Li Yuncong heard the sudden interruption at the key point, the expression on his face suddenly became anxious and his breathing became rapid. This was really inappropriate given his cultivation level.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I said it was Hong Beimo!"
Li Yuncong whispered: "Seriously?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "If I had said your name, do you think you would still be alive until now? Bu Wu can come and go freely in Tianlong Temple where there are so many masters, and even the imperial palace can't stop him."
Li Yuncong fell silent. The secret that he had hidden for thirty years was exposed by a young man in front of him. At this time, he felt all kinds of emotions in his heart. Hu Xiaotian was right about what he said. In his current situation, even if he wanted to kill Hu Xiaotian and silence him, he would
The intention is powerless. Hu Xiaotian is well versed in attacking the heart. Only by holding the secret in his hands can it be used as a weapon to threaten the other party. He did not make this matter public. In fact, Li Yuncong's secret was of no concern to him.
Li Yuncong pondered for a long time, and the murderous aura in his body had disappeared. He sighed and said, "So the Za family owes you a favor."
Hu Xiaotian said: "There's more than one, you owe me too much." (To be continued...)
