Xu Lingkong did not answer Hu Xiaotian's question. He turned around and left, leaving Hu Xiaotian with a desolate and lonely back.£∝,
Hu Xiaotian shouted from behind him: "Senior!"
Xu Lingkong did not look back.
"Grandpa! Take care!"
Xu Lingkong paused for a moment, nodded, and whispered: "I'll give you a piece of advice, stay away from Hongbei Mo."
Yang Lingqi's operation was very successful, but he couldn't use his hands for a few more days. Hu Xiaotian asked him to stay in Fengyi Villa temporarily to recuperate. Yang Lingqi was obviously a little worried. Hu Xiaotian was afraid that he would face pressure from all aspects when he returned to Kangdu this time.
Although he can't move his hands, his brain is still very useful after all, and can help Hu Xiaotian analyze the situation and come up with some ideas.
Hu Xiaotian knew what Yang Lingqi was thinking, so he comforted him with a smile and said: "I didn't go back this time to be an official, nor to take revenge. I just wanted to visit my home. I was in a hurry when I left, and I left a lot of things there."
Yang Lingqi said: "Master, can you tell me clearly whether you will take over the Shence Mansion when you return this time?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Shence Mansion is just a name, and now only Brother Zhou is in charge. Although Princess Yongyang is ambitious and wants to recruit talents, in the current situation in Dakang, who has the ability?"
If you are still willing to come, who is still willing to assist a dynasty that is about to collapse?" The Shence Mansion has been established for a while, but the establishment situation is not ideal. When it was divided into the five wind, rain, thunder and lightning stars, its backbone was still them, and there were no
Recruit truly capable people.
Yang Lingqi said: "Princess Yongyang wants the master to go back because she wants you to assist her and continue her unfinished business."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Although she is very ambitious, she is still a girl after all, and her vision is lacking after all. Looking back now, it was not wise to be an enemy of Hong Beimo."
Yang Lingqi said: "The master of the palace may wish to consider my suggestion."
Hu Xiaotian laughed. Yang Lingqi had repeatedly encouraged him to marry Qiqi and confirm his identity as the consort as soon as possible. Hu Xiaotian said: "If I bring it up now, not only will the emperor think that I have ulterior motives, but even the princess will look down on me.
Brother Qi, just rest in peace and recuperate, it won’t take long for me to return to health this time, and I will be careful in everything and never get involved in intrauterine disputes.”
Hu Xiaotian only brought Wei Sa and Liang Yinghao with him when he returned to Kangdu this time. It took half a day to travel from Fengyi Villa to Kangdu. After arriving in Kangdu, Hu Xiaotian was not in a hurry to see Qiqi, but returned to Shangshu first.
In the house, he came to Boxuan Building, where his father usually lived for a long time, and asked Liang Yinghao to carefully investigate. Is there anything unusual inside the Boxuan Building? Hu Xiaotian thought that since his father had planned it in advance, he would definitely leave some clues in the house.
Lingkong had clearly told him that Hu Buwei went to Tianxiang Country, but other than that, he did not reveal much information to him. Why did his father choose Tianxiang Country? Since he chose Tianxiang Country as a place to stay, then what happened to him before?
They should have contact with the powerful people in Tianxiang Kingdom.
Hu Xiaotian suddenly thought of Long Xiyue, remembering that after she left without saying goodbye in Haizhou, his eldest brother Zhou Mo once analyzed that she was likely to go to Tianxiang Kingdom to join her aunt, Long Xuanjiao, the Queen Mother of Tianxiang Kingdom. Hu Xiaotian was heartbroken because of this news.
, he never thought that someone as gentle and kind as Long Xiyue would betray him, but looking back now, there were too many doubts about Long Xiyue's leaving without saying goodbye. She, a weak woman, actually used drugs to restrain Zhou Mo.
Martial arts masters like Peng.
Zhan Peng and Zhou Mo are brothers who have gone through life and death. In order to save himself, Zhan Peng did not hesitate to risk beheading. Zhou Mo is his sworn brother. He and Xiao Tianmu were sworn brothers with him in Qingyun and came all the way from Xichuan
Kangdu rescued him and accompanied him to Dayong.
During the more than a month of keeping filial piety for his mother, Hu Xiaotian recalled every bit of what happened in the past almost every day. He realized that he had overlooked one thing from the beginning. He did not know Zhou Mo and Xiao Tian
Everything he knew about the origins of the two sworn brothers, Mu, was through them. They were sworn brothers from the beginning to take advantage of each other. Hu Xiaotian began to think about why they would find him when he first arrived in Qingyun. With Zhou Mo's martial arts
Why did he lead 200 Hutou camp warriors to suffer such a complete defeat at the hands of the Tianlang Mountain horse bandits? Why did Zhou Mo conclude that Long Xiyue fled to Tianxiang Kingdom? Why did Xiao Tianmu take the initiative to ask Ying to accompany Hu Buwei?
Going to Luosong to open up a sea route? Each of these questions formed doubts one after another, and Hu Xiaotian's heart had already been shaken.
Visa knocked on the door, interrupting Hu Xiaotian's contemplation. She said softly: "Master, the food and wine are ready. Liang Dazhuang has also gone to invite Master Zhou. They should arrive soon."
Hu Xiaotian nodded: "Visa!"
Visa said: "Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Looking back, when my eldest brother and I are drinking, can you play the flute for us?"
Visa lowered his head in embarrassment: "As long as the master likes it, of course Visa is willing. I wonder what music the master likes to listen to?"
Hu Xiaotian put his hands behind his back and turned around, whispering: "Instead of playing it for me, I want you to play it for my big brother, and play a piece of music that you are best at."
Visa blinked her beautiful ice-blue eyes, her gaze filled with disbelief. In her impression, Hu Xiaotian and Zhou Mo were brothers who shared life and death, but she didn't know why Hu Xiaotian would use such a method on his sworn brother.
Is there something wrong with their friendship?
Hu Xiaotian said: "I suspect that he has hidden something from me, so I want you to help me prove it."
Visa said: "Master Zhou is a loyal and honest man, so he should..."
Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "I used to think that my father was the person who cared about me the most in the world, but the facts gave me a loud slap in the face."
Visa said: "The master's business is Visa's business, and Visa will try his best to do this well."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Visa, you must use your best skills and try to control his mind. It will only take a while."
Visa nodded.
Hu Xiaotian secretly said to himself: "I hope you are wrong!"
After receiving the notification from Liang Dazhuang, Zhou Mo immediately followed him to the Shangshu Mansion. Hu Xiaotian hosted a banquet in the back garden. In the back garden, the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, and the autumn wind blew through, making the ground golden.
Zhou Mo strode to Hu Xiaotian with golden petals, stretched out his arms and patted Hu Xiaotian's broad shoulders, pursed his lips and said, "Third brother! You are finally back!"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Although my mother is gone, I still have to continue to live after all. I can't let you brothers worry about me."
Zhou Mo said happily: "I feel relieved to hear you say that. It's time for you to shave your beard. It's thicker than mine. If we two brothers go out like this, we won't know who is the eldest brother."
Hu Xiaotian laughed, but his smile quickly faded and he said, "I wonder how my second brother is doing now?"
Zhou Mo also sighed.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Let's not talk about this for now. Brother, we haven't had a drink together for a long time. I asked someone to prepare some food and wine. Let's have a few drinks today."
Zhou Mo nodded, and the two brothers came to the pavilion and sat down. Hu Xiaotian took the initiative to pick up the wine pot and filled the wine bowls in front of them. Zhou Mo had a large capacity for drinking, and he always used big bowls to drink with him. Hu Xiaotian picked up the wine
The bowl said: "Do it!"
Zhou Mo picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Hu Xiaotian also raised his head and drank the wine. He couldn't help but think of the scene where Zhou Mo accompanied him to Dayong and accompanied him through life and death many times. There was a complicated and unspeakable feeling in his heart. The mellow wine had arrived.
My mouth also became bitter and difficult to swallow.
Zhou Mo put down the wine bowl and rushed to pour the wine: "What are your plans for the third brother? Are you planning to come back and take charge of the Shence Mansion?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "There is no news about my father so far. Second brother and Fei Yan were all on the ship. Fifty warships disappeared without a sound."
Zhou Mo said: "During this period, I carefully studied the navigation chart. According to the information collected so far, maybe the fleet turned back to the waters of Tianxiang Kingdom."
Hu Xiaotian said: "My father wouldn't do that!"
Zhou Mo said: "Third brother, don't forget, in addition to Uncle Hu and our people, there are a total of 10,000 elite sailors on the ship. They are the ones who play the key role on the vast sea."
Hu Xiaotian nodded: "It's been so long and there's still no news."
Zhou Mo said: "I plan to go to Tianxiang Kingdom in person to find out what happened."
A gust of cold wind blew by, bringing with it the fragrance of chrysanthemums. Hu Xiaotian quietly looked at the chrysanthemums in the garden and recited in a low voice: "When autumn comes on September 8, I will kill hundreds of flowers after they bloom!"
Zhou Mo praised: "What a poem. Although Brother Yu has no ink in his chest, this poem sounds heroic and very enjoyable."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Let's not mention these things for now. Let's relax tonight and drink, drink!"
Zhou Mo said: "Yes, it's time to relax. As long as Third Brother is willing, Brother Yu will sacrifice his life to accompany you tonight and get drunk with you."
Hu Xiaotian said: "That's natural, but it would be too monotonous for us to drink bowl after bowl like this. Why don't I ask Visa to play a song for us to help us enjoy the wine."
Zhou Mo said with a smile: "Brother, please don't bother this little girl. I don't understand the music. Even if you ask her to come over, you are just playing the piano to a cow."
Hu Xiaotian had already raised his voice and called for Visa.
Not long after, I saw Visa walking over with a jade flute and saluted the two of them.
Hu Xiaotian asked her to sit aside and said with a smile: "I told my elder brother that you are very good at playing the flute, and asked you to come over and play a piece of music for us to cheer us up."
Visa looked at Zhou Mo with his beautiful ice-blue eyes and said, "I wonder what song Mr. Zhou wants to listen to?"
Zhou Mo smiled bitterly and said: "I don't understand music at all, so I'd better let my brother speak."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Then play a piece of your local music."
Visa said: "Then I will play a piece of "Autumn Thoughts in the Desert" for you to listen to!"
The second update is here, please! (To be continued...)
