Chapter 187 Counterattack? This is just the beginning!
Ximen Hao glanced at the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, and based on the dead ghost's memory, he also knew their approximate names and positions.
Then, he cast his eyes upward, first looking at the expressionless Ximen Guang, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth without noticing.
Then he glanced at the queen again, and was a little surprised as to why the queen had been released in advance.
Then he glanced at his fourth brother Ximen Wen. This young man saw that he didn't show anything.
Originally, the two of them were not familiar with each other.
Finally, set your sights on Ximen Potian.
He and Ximen Potian looked at each other for a long time at the entrance of Qingyang Hall. Neither of them had any expressions, and neither could tell what the other was thinking.
The ministers in the main hall looked left and then again, but no one dared to speak.
Ximen Hao is back, and his whole person has changed! It also indicates that the world of Qing Kingdom is about to change!
"Wow!"
Ximen Hao moved, took firm steps, walked into Qingyang Hall with his head held high, and stood in the center of the hall.
Hold your fists, bow, and salute:
"My lord, I pay my respects to my father! I'm sorry that I'm wearing armor and can't salute you!"
Ximen Potian looked at his eldest son who was neither arrogant nor humble. Although he understood that the armor on his body was intentional and he was unwilling to give him a big gift, he was not angry!
Because the other party's crown prince was fucked by his own order, and even when he was about to die, he rarely looked at it.
Therefore, he can understand that the other party has some resentment in his heart.
But he understood that the Queen, who was ready to put Ximen Hao to death at any time, did not understand!
"Hmph! Your Highness, this is the royal palace, why do you need to wear armor? You even wear a sword to go to court! Do you not want to salute His Majesty, or do you have other motives."
The queen will never let go of this opportunity. If she can, she will suppress her. If she can't, she will also test it out.
After all, for seven months, all I heard were rumors.
"brush!"
The air in Qingyang Palace solidified again, and everyone looked at Ximen Hao, including the silent Ximen Potian.
Among the civil and military officials, two people paid special attention to Ximen Hao at this time.
One is Pan Shimei, the prime minister of Qing Dynasty and the former father-in-law of the eldest prince.
He stared at Ximen Hao, with not only the imperceptible hatred in his eyes, but also deep vigilance and scrutiny!
There is also Di Hu, the future father-in-law of the eldest prince who came back from Huainan.
He could only look at his son-in-law and see how he could take over his sister's first move!
The other civil and military ministers also had their own thoughts. His Majesty did not say anything, which meant that he tacitly allowed the Queen to go mad.
Ximen Hao slowly raised his head, stared at the Queen, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up:
"Queen, don't you know why I'm wearing armor?"
"Hmph! How do I know what you are thinking!"
The Queen snorted coldly, her eyes a little evasive.
Because the other person's eyes and playful smile made her feel a little uneasy.
"Haha~ In seven months, from the moment I woke up to now, I have been assassinated five times! So, for the sake of my life, I never leave my armor!"
Ximen Hao fought back, and the first move revealed the assassination of Ximen Guang.
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials of the entire court fell silent again, but none of them could figure out the other party's approach.
It's really not convenient to say this kind of thing in front of so many people.
"Your Highness, do you think the palace is not safe?"
The Queen put her hat down.
"Haha~ Doesn't the Queen know whether An is safe or not?"
Ximen Hao kicked the ball back.
The queen narrowed her eyes and said secretly: This boy wants to settle an old score!
Of course, there is no evidence, Pan Yinlian is also dead, she has nothing to fear.
"Your Highness, are you questioning His Majesty's Golden Guards and the Royal Palace's Imperial Guards?"
The queen continued to give her hat.
Ximen Hao's face straightened up and he bowed to Ximen Potian:
"Don't dare! Your Majesty's golden guards are the strongest Ouchi guards! The Royal Palace's imperial guards are the strongest army! No one doubts this! But it's easy to hide from open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. What if I walk?
Wouldn't it be unfair if someone stabbed you in the back while you were walking?"
"Empress, only those who have died once can know how precious life is! I don't want to be plotted against anyone again without knowing it! Please give me a sense of security, Queen."
"..."
The queen was silent. She could not take this move.
After all, Ximen Hao's fate was a tragedy in the Qing Kingdom.
But now the tragedy has turned into a comedy. It would be inappropriate for her to use the incident of the other party's almost death to attack him again.
"Hahaha! Da Lang! Come on, come up and let me see if it's strong or not?"
Ximen Potian suddenly stood up, opened his arms, and showed a kind smile.
"Yes, Father."
Ximen Hao saluted and then walked up the stairs.
He knew that he had a slight advantage in this round, but this was just the beginning!
"Yeah! Not bad! It's really good, the skills are good, and the body training is also good! I didn't expect that more than a month ago it was the early stage of God Training, and now it's the middle stage! Not bad!"
Ximen Potian grabbed Ximen Hao's shoulders and said a series of "not bad", which made Ximen Guang's heart sink to the bottom.
He lowered his head and glanced sideways at Ximen Hao, with a poisonous light flashing in his eyes.
Ximen Hao rolled his eyes, glanced at Ximen Guang, and then said with a smile:
"Without the care of my father, my son would not have reached this point. Besides, like father, like son!"
"Hahaha! Like father, like son!"
Ximen Potian laughed heartily, this invisible flattery was the most comfortable.
"Come on, you haven't seen the ministers for many years since you were bedridden, right?"
As he spoke, he used a little force with his hands to turn Ximen Hao's direction.
"Your Majesty, please wait and welcome His Highness back to the palace!"
All the civil and military ministers saluted at the same time. If anyone didn't have the vision to confront the eldest prince at this time, he would probably end up in a bad end.
Ximen Hao hurriedly took two steps down and bowed his hands:
"My lords, you have devoted your whole life to the Qing Dynasty. There is no need to be more polite. It is the juniors who should be polite."
His attitude is very low. Yes, it is not difficult to be a prince, but to be an emperor, without the assistance of civil and military ministers, even if you give him a country, he will be finished soon.
His words made many ministers feel a lot more comfortable, and Ximen Potian also nodded in appreciation.
Because many of these ministers were veterans of the previous dynasty and contributed greatly to the Qing Dynasty!
The Queen and Ximen Guang looked at each other and frowned at the same time.
Now it seems that this Ximen Hao is getting more and more difficult to deal with.
At this time, Di Hu suddenly came out of the queue, first bowed to Ximen Potian, then looked at Ximen Hao and asked:
"Your Highness, my dear daughter, no, has the princess come back?"
Ximen Hao quickly returned the gift:
"Father-in-law, Yingying is following behind. It will take about seven or eight days to reach Tianqing City. At that time, my son-in-law will go to the house with Yingying to say hello."
