When County Sheriff Xiao heard what the housekeeper said, he immediately lost his composure: "Do you know what exactly Liu Ji went to see Xia Haoxuan for?"
"If my subordinates guessed correctly, King Nan sent Liu Ji to find Xia Haoxuan in order to win over Xia Haoxuan!" The steward hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"What did Prince Nan do to me? Does he still have me in his eyes? Has he forgotten how many county guards I have won over for him? Has he forgotten how Xia Haoxuan provoked him?" Xiao
The governor was furious and said angrily with an angry face.
The person he is most unhappy with right now is Xia Haoxuan. If he could, he would kill Xia Haoxuan thousands of times.
But now, it was good that King Nan, as his backer, did not help him, but instead tried to win over Xia Haoxuan. How could he bear this?
"Sir, in fact, it is reasonable for King Nan to win over that Xia Haoxuan!" The housekeeper looked at the angry Governor Xiao and said in a cautious tone.
"What! You also think that Prince Nan did the right thing!" Sheriff Xiao's voice obviously increased a lot when he heard the butler's words.
"It's not that I think King Nan did the right thing, but if he were a subordinate, he would definitely do the same thing as King Nan."
"Why?"
When Sheriff Xiao heard what the housekeeper said, his face was full of confusion!
"Because of Xia Haoxuan's talent!" the housekeeper replied directly.
When Sheriff Xiao heard the butler's words, he immediately fell into deep thought.
The butler continued: "The boy's talent in alchemy and formation today is obvious to all of us and cannot be faked!
As long as that kid is allowed to develop, the future is limitless!
For King Nan, the value of winning over that kid is much greater than the value of killing that kid."
"But Prince Nan doesn't necessarily care about my feelings either!" Sheriff Xiao said although he knew what the housekeeper said was reasonable, but he still looked very unhappy.
"Sir, as the saying goes, an arm cannot twist a thigh. Now we have surrendered to King Nan. No matter how unhappy we are, we can only endure it!" the housekeeper advised Governor Xiao.
Sheriff Xiao also knew that he could not go against Nan Wang, but when he thought about it, if Xia Haoxuan really surrendered to Nan Wang.
By then, with Xia Haoxuan's talent, he will definitely be taken seriously by King Nan.
At that time, Xia Haoxuan was not allowed to ride on his head. How could he ever get ahead?
"You can think of a way for me to make sure that boy doesn't surrender to the Southern King successfully!" Sheriff Xiao said to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper carefully analyzed: "We must not interfere with King Nan's decision, otherwise we will be self-defeating and make King Nan dissatisfied with you!"
"Then what do you think we should do? Are you going to let me, the county governor, just watch helplessly, that Xia Haoxuan is surrendered to the Southern King!" Commander Xiao said in a very anxious tone.
The butler pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, my lord, there is no need to be anxious at all. With Xia Haoxuan's arrogant character, I think the chance of him surrendering to the Southern King is low."
"Even if the chance is low, there is still a chance!" Sheriff Xiao's face was still full of worry.
"This is not something we can decide. We can only wait and see what happens. First of all, sir, you must not mess up your position!"
"Are we really going to do nothing?"
"There is one thing you can do, and that is to go to King Nan and suggest that King Nan subdue that Xia Haoxuan!"
"What? Are you crazy? It would be great if I didn't stop King Nan from subduing Xia Haoxuan. You actually want me to suggest that King Nan subdue Xia Haoxuan? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
When Sheriff Xiao heard the butler's words, he looked at the butler with strange eyes.
It's not like he's mentally retarded, he already had a falling out with Xia Haoxuan.
How sick is he that he would take the initiative to advise King Nan to subdue Xia Haoxuan.
"Sir, please be patient and let me give you my analysis!" Seeing the angry Governor Xiao, the housekeeper quickly continued: "Now that King Nan wants Xia Haoxuan to surrender, it is an indisputable fact and we cannot change it.
Instead of doing this, we might as well follow Nan Wang and push the boat along to show your loyalty to Nan Wang!"
When Sheriff Xiao heard what the housekeeper said, the anger in his heart calmed down a lot, but this also made Sheriff Xiao fall into deep thought.
Although he knew that what the butler said made sense!
But asking him to speak to King Nan and conquer someone he hated so much, he really couldn't do it!
"My lord, don't hesitate, this matter cannot be delayed! In the end, it doesn't matter whether Xia Haoxuan surrenders to the Southern King or not, my Lord, doing this will only benefit you, not any harm!" The housekeeper looked at Governor Xiao, who was obviously deep in thought and full of hesitation.
, he spoke urgently and urged.
He knew the character of Commander Xiao best. If he didn't persuade Commander Xiao to go, given Commander Xiao's character, he would definitely not go to King Nan.
"Okay! Second brother, I will listen to you this time, and I will endure the humiliation and bear the burden for once!" Sheriff Xiao looked at the housekeeper with an anxious expression on his face, and agreed with difficulty!
…
"Huh? What kind of incense is this? It smells very soothing!" Xia Haoxuan followed Prime Minister Qin to the palace of Emperor Da Qi and immediately smelled a soothing fragrance.
The fragrance entered his nose and swept away his mental fatigue, making him feel refreshed.
But the next second, Xia Haoxuan's heart skipped a beat!
He suddenly thought of something!
During the day, I looked at the state of the Emperor of Qi. His face was glowing red and he was in high spirits. He should be resting and there was no need for this kind of soothing incense.
Unless there is a possibility, that is, the rumors outside are true, and the physical condition of Emperor Da Qi is really not optimistic.
The state of Emperor Daqi during the day was most likely an act.
If this is the case, the Emperor of Da Qi didn't take a good rest and still asked him to come. What on earth could be going on!
Of course, this is just his guess, and it cannot be avoided. The Emperor of Da Qi had the habit of using Anshen Incense to rest.
However, Xia Haoxuan still feels that the former may be bigger.
After all, even if Emperor Daqi had the habit of using tranquilizing incense to rest, it would be a bit premature to use tranquilizing incense now when Emperor Daqi clearly wants to see him.
This can only show that the spirit of Emperor Da Qi is very exhausted and needs the soothing incense to support him!
When Prime Minister Qin heard Xia Haoxuan's words, he didn't say anything. Instead, he said respectfully to the palace in front of him: "Your Majesty, Xia Haoxuan is here!"
"Ahem, please invite him in quickly!" The sound of Emperor Daqi coughing came from the palace.
When Prime Minister Qin heard what Emperor Da Qi said, he opened the door and extended an invitation gesture to Xia Haoxuan: "Haoxuan, please come in!"
In Xia Haoxuan's mind, there was only the sound of Emperor Daqi coughing just now, and that sound revealed a sense of weakness. (To be continued)
