Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "His Majesty asked Weichen to go to Xichuan to congratulate Li Tianheng on his birthday, and the minister did as he was told, and His Majesty asked Weichen to pass the decree in person to canonize Li Tianheng as the king, and the minister also did so, and the two things that His Majesty handed over to the minister, the minister did not dare to say that he was satisfied with all of them, but the minister asked himself to be conscientious and conscientious, and there was no disobedience, as for the result, it was not the minister who could control it, if His Majesty blamed the Weichen for this, the minister had nothing to say. ”

"You're not convinced?"

Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "Surrender or disobey!" ”

Long Xuanen walked down a few steps, stood in the middle of the steps, looked down at Hu Xiaotian who was kneeling below, the corner of Hu Xiaotian's eyes swept to the location where Long Xuanen was, the old emperor had already entered the range of his killing, as long as he was ruthless, he would definitely let the blood of the old turtle that had plagued the country and the people splash five steps, and he would die for the first time, Hu Xiaotian had the idea of killing Long Xuanen for the first time in his heart, but reason told him again, and it was not good for him to kill Long Xuanen now.

Long Xuanen said: "Okay, then I ask you, why didn't you read the holy decree in public at Li Tianheng's birthday banquet when you went to Xichuan to be crowned king?" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Your Majesty just let Weichen go to Xichuan to seal the king, and did not let the minister necessarily read the holy decree at the birthday banquet, the minister has not yet arrived in Xichuan, the matter of the king has been spreading, the minister does not know the content of the holy decree, let alone disclose the purpose of this trip, dare to ask His Majesty, who leaked the content of the holy decree?" ”

Long Xuanen said angrily: "Do you suspect that I leaked this matter? ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "The minister doesn't dare to doubt His Majesty, of course His Majesty disdains to do such a small thing, but the people around His Majesty may not all be reliable." His words attracted the palace people around Long Xuanen to look sideways, and secretly scolded Hu Xiaotian for involving them.

Long Xuanen said: "Okay, let's stop this matter for the time being, and I'll ask you after Li Tianheng's assassination." Your life is in danger, why do you want to save it? ”

Hu Xiaotian was stunned in his heart, he rescued King Zhou, but not Li Tianheng, why did the old emperor ask like this? If you want to conspire and frame, you can't excuse the crime you want to add. Hu Xiaotian said: "Weichen doesn't know where this news came from. When the minister went to Dayong as an envoy, there were rumors that the minister rescued the emperor of Dayong, and now there are rumors that the minister saved Li Tianheng when he went to Xichuan. ”

Long Xuanen said coldly: "There will be no mistake in my news. ”

"It turns out that His Majesty doesn't trust Wei Chen, in that case, why do you entrust me with such an important task?"

Long Xuanen said: "I have high hopes for you, but I can't imagine that you will disobey the yang and the yin, and what you have done is really disappointing to me!" He took another step forward: "And your father." Hu Buwei is using the name of opening up the sea route, and now he has escaped without a trace of the fleet, are your father and son playing tricks? ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "The minister doesn't dare, I believe that the minister's father doesn't dare to do this, we serve His Majesty loyally and passionately, if the minister dares to have a different heart, and don't say I'm sorry for His Majesty's weight, I'm sorry for the Hu family's loyalty." Generations of wise, if the minister has a different heart. Why bother to return to the capital, wouldn't it be better to stay in Xichuan to be Li Tianheng's son-in-law. ”

"You!" Long Xuanen was a little speechless by this guy's sharp teeth.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, before the minister left Xichuan, Li Tianheng once reminded the minister of the past marriage contract and persuaded the minister to stay in Xichuan, but the minister Yizheng rejected his conditions. In order not to live up to His Majesty's kindness to our Hu family, but I didn't expect His Majesty to be suspicious of Wei Chen, Wei Chen's heart is like a knife, please give me a death, and the minister can only prove his innocence by death. ”

Long Xuanen sneered: "Do you think I really dare not kill you? ”

Hu Xiaotian's heart sank. Long Xuanen wanted to kill himself in Xichuan, and now that he has returned to Kangdu, he does not rule out the possibility of killing himself in anger to vent his anger, Hu Xiaotian secretly thought in his heart, as long as you dare to give an order, Lao Tzu will not care about anything, kill you old turtle first. Quietly accumulating strength, ready to go.

An angry voice suddenly came from outside the palace gate: "Get out!" Let me in! But Qiqi received the news and hurried over.

Hu Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, fortunately, Qiqi came in time, if he was one step later, maybe he and the old emperor would have to meet each other. Although he was sure to kill Long Xuanen, he was not sure enough to escape from the palace, Murong Zhan's martial arts were unfathomable, plus the group of masters around him, although he was strong inside, he was still lacking in actual combat, and he was outnumbered, and the chance of winning was very small.

Qiqi rushed in from the outside, followed by a group of imperial guards stationed outside the door, Long Xuanen's face darkened, and he glared at Murong Zhan fiercely, Murong Zhan lowered his head a little ashamedly, in fact, with the strength of their group of people, there would be no problem at all if they wanted to stop the little princess, obviously because of Qiqi's might, so they didn't dare to take it seriously, of course, it was not ruled out that Murong Zhan deliberately sent a favor to Hu Xiaotian.

Qiqi came to Long Xuanen and said angrily: "Your Majesty, why is this? ”

Long Xuanen rarely lost his temper at Qiqi, and roared angrily: "Without my order, you actually trespassed into Xuanwei Palace, do you still have me in your eyes?" ”

Qiqi didn't have the slightest fear on his face, and didn't give an inch: "Hu Xiaotian is my fiancé, if you want to kill him, kill me with him, so you can be a real loner!" ”

"Presumptuous!" Long Xuanen was furious, and Su Fa rose up because of his anger, Long Yan's anger was really extraordinary, and the shock made a group of palace people tremble, and they knelt down one by one.

Long Xuanen looked at Qiqi, but pointed his finger at Hu Xiaotian and said: "Do you know that Hu Buwei led the fleet to Luozon at all, and after going to sea for three months, there was no news of their arrival on the Luosong side!" ”

Qiqi's expression was stunned, although Hu Xiaotian had been prepared for this qiē, he still felt a shock in his heart, his father didn't go to Luozon, so where did he go? Even if he had a plan, but there were still Xiao Tianmu, Zhanpeng and Murong Feiyan on the ship, others didn't say it, the second brother Xiao Tianmu was a pedantic and wise person, how could he be lightly accused by his father? Where the hell did they go? What's going on here?

Qiqi said: "Is this serious? ”

Long Xuanen nodded slowly: "There will be no mistake in the news. ”

Qiqi said: "Even so, what does it have to do with Hu Xiaotian?" ”

Long Xuanen said: "Their father and son are clearly colluding with each other, intending to be unfavorable to Dakang. ”

Qiqi said: "If Hu Xiaotian really knows the inside story, why did he come back from Xichuan?" Your Majesty, don't listen to other people's slander, Qiqi is willing to use his life to vouch for Hu Xiaotian, if he has the slightest disloyalty, I am willing to apologize with him! She knelt down beside Hu Xiaotian.

Although Hu Xiaotian knew that Qiqi had her purpose in defending herself, she was still a little moved in her heart, Qiqi, Qiqi, it is not in vain that I am engaged to you, and I still know how to protect my family at a critical moment.

Long Xuanen's gaze stared at Qiqi for a long time, and after a while, he said, "I hope he is worthy of your maintenance." He waved his hand a little tiredly and said, "Stand down, I'm a little tired." ”

Hu Xiaotian left Xuanwei Palace with Qiqi, came outside, and saw that there was no one around, so Hu Xiaotian said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Princess, for saving your life." ”

Qiqi looked at Hu Xiaotian, sighed and said, "I'll send you back." ”

Sitting in Qiqi's carriage and leaving the palace, Hu Xiaotian's heart was quite uneasy, not only because he had escaped death just now, but also because he was worried about his mother's illness. A slippery and soft little hand covered the back of his hand, but it was Qiqi who held his hand and comforted him: "You don't have to worry, Mrs. Hu will be fine." ”

Hu Xiaotian smiled reluctantly and said in a low voice: "There is something I have to tell you, my mother's illness may be related to my father." ”

Qiqi said: "Is Master Hu gone and never returned?" She Bingxue is smart, and she has already guessed the clue from Hu Xiaotian's words.

Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "I don't know, I hope nothing happens at sea." "There is no news from the fleet so far, there are two possibilities, one is that Hu Buwei led the fleet to change the course to another destination, and the other may be that the fleet encountered wind and waves at sea, compared with the two, Hu Xiaotian would rather be the former.

Qiqi said: "If this passage on the sea can't be opened, I'm afraid that Dakang will be finished......" It was the first time she expressed such pessimism in front of Hu Xiaotian.

Looking at Qiqi's pretty face that suddenly became pale and his sad and helpless eyes, Hu Xiaotian suddenly felt a burst of pity from the bottom of his heart, and he said in a low voice: "It is actually a trap for the emperor to let me go to Xichuan to crown Li Tianheng as king. ”

Qiqi nodded and said, "I guessed!" ”

"Then why don't you stop it?"

Qiqi said: "I thought he was pretty good to me, but I couldn't be sure if he would plan such a conspiracy behind his back, and ......" Qiqi paused, her hand left the back of Hu Xiaotian's hand, and her ten fingers were entangled, looking a little guilty: "At that time, I also thought that only by recovering Xichuan could Dakang be saved, so ...... So ......"

"So you just let it happen without reminding me?" Hu Xiaotian's tone was very calm.

Qiqi nodded, bit Sakura's lip and said, "Will you blame me?" ”

Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "You are thinking about Dakang, I remember you once said that even if you sacrifice your own life for Dakang, it is not a pity, let alone my life?" ”

Qiqimei's eyes showed an apologetic look, and she quietly observed Hu Xiaotian's face: "Actually, I regretted it after you left, but I can't convince myself, whether you believe it or not, deep in my heart, I hope you come back safely." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Believe! ”

His answer made Qiqi feel stunned, and he raised his beautiful eyes and looked at him suspiciously: "Do you believe it?" ”

Hu Xiaotian nodded: "Because in this world, you have almost no friends except me." ”
