Xiahou Zheng didn't wait for Dong Xu to answer, so he directly opened his mouth and continued: "The Xiahou clan has been said to be rotten in the Shang Kingdom, even if there are really any words coming out of the mouth of that jade brocade, it will only be drowned in the crowd. Moreover, that jade brocade seems to be ordinary, and he also speaks of himself as ordinary, but in fact, I feel that this person is extremely deep, and he is definitely above me, and his identity is probably not as simple as he said. At least, I never saw the slightest inappropriateness in his performance, and even in the face of me, the eldest son of the Xiahou family, I did not show any fear or timidity. ”

Dong Xu hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but ask out loud: "Since the adults have so many doubts about this jade brocade, why don't you let your subordinates kill him directly, so that even if he really has any problems, then he is already a dead man." ”

Xiahou Zheng shook his head, a pair of eagle eyes were sharp and compelling, and he said, "No." We don't know the identity and circumstances of this person, if you do it now, if he is really an ordinary person, then forget it, but if he is not...... I'm afraid that we will fall into the trap set by others. Now that the situation in Shangguo is complicated, it is enough headache for me to solve the current problem, so you better not go and cause me new trouble. ”

"It's the subordinates who don't think about it." Dong Xu nodded.

Xiahou Zheng sighed and said, "Besides, if this person is really a talented person with no background, wouldn't it be a pity to kill him now?" He has now made it clear that my status is only temporarily obtained by the Xiahou clan, and the world of the Shang Kingdom is still the Nangong clan, so he has no intention of joining our scuffle, and feels that he may break himself. If that's why he turned me down, then I won't have to try again until I've gone higher and seen farther. ”

Dong Xu also understood, he put away his murderous intent, "My lord is right. ”

Xiahou Zheng was silent for a moment, and then said to Dong Xu: "You go and get the eldest lady back first, don't let her run around anymore, lest she cause new trouble." ”

Dong Xu leaned over, "Yes, my lord." And my lord, about the matter of the jade seal of the country......"

"Do you have any news on this?" Xiahou Zheng's eyes suddenly froze.

"Lord Hui, our people have searched through most of the corners and corners of Haotian Sect, but they still haven't found anything. Right now...... Only the place behind the mountain has not been searched. However, the back mountain is the retreat place of the head of Haotian Sect, and no one inside or outside is allowed to enter on weekdays, and we have no right to enter. Dong Xu's face was puzzled.

Xiahou Zheng's eyes were a little gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "I also asked Shizun before if he could integrate into it, but Shizun immediately refused. ”

"Why is this head of Haotian Sect so mysterious, he doesn't go out on weekdays, and he doesn't let others in. My lord, I think there is a problem in the back mountain, and this head is also very suspicious. Dong Xu said suddenly.

Xiahou Zheng pondered for a moment, his eagle eyes flickered, and he said: "After all, I am still a disciple of Haotian Sect now, if I send a large number of people to break in and search for it, I am afraid that I will not be able to gain a foothold in Haotian Sect in the future." "There are many sons of powerful people from the four kingdoms in Haotian Sect, so if possible, he still wants to get closer to Haotian Sect as much as possible.

"But this time, the adults can't stay in Haotian Sect for a long time, if the people who split up the family or the people of the Wang family know the whereabouts of the adults, then the adults are afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the future."

Xiahou Zheng flicked his long sleeves and frowned. After a moment, he suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes were sharp and shining, he sneered, as if he had made up his mind in his heart, "It seems that this time I still have to go to the back mountain by myself." ”

When Dong Xu heard this, he said anxiously: "My lord, this is too dangerous, in case he ...... in charge."

"When he was twenty years old, he took the position of the head of Haotian Sect, and now thirty years have passed, at best, he has become an old man, even if he is above him, will I still lose to him?" Xiahou Zheng waved his hand impatiently at Dong Xu and said, "Okay, you can let your subordinates come back first." I'll take a few people to the back mountain tomorrow, and you don't have to say more. ”

"Yes, sir." Dong Xu left immediately after receiving the order.

After walking away from the gazebo, Tamazen went all the way back. Just as she had just walked some distance, she suddenly stopped.

Yuran didn't look back, as far as her eyes could see, there was a stone road that was not wide and a patch of flowers and trees around her, she smiled slightly, and said out of thin air: "Since you have come with me all the way, don't you want to come out?" ”

As soon as Yuran's words fell, a person walked out not far behind Yuran. The man walked to Yuran's side, and Yuran turned his head slightly sideways, and saw a man with an awkward face. The person who has been following Yuran is none other than Takera.

Zhu Liang crossed his arms around his chest, turned his head away from looking at Yu Ran, and asked in a muffled voice, "When did you find out that I was following you?" ”

"Not long after I walked out of the courtyard with Xiahou Ni, the sunlight broke your shadow, and I happened to catch a glimpse." Yuran looked like a smile.

Takera was also powerless to be ashamed, and he sighed silently. He slowed down with Yu Ran, and after a long silence, he spoke: "Then Xiahou Zheng's return to Haotian Sect this time is obviously ill-intentioned, why do you have to get involved?" ”

"Can't you understand?" Tamarin asked with a smile.

Zhu Liang's eyes flashed slightly, "It's really a good way to let Xiahou Zheng's spearhead point at Shang Jun with just a little effort." ”

"Let the Xiahou family's own family and the division have contradictions, and constantly fight and entangle, this is the way of checks and balances of the Shang Jun, so the dominant person is the Shang Jun, and the Xiahou family is passive. In this way, even if the Xiahou clan is huge, it will not be able to directly shake the Shang Jun after all. Jade Ran said.

Zhuliang paused, looked sideways at Yu Ran, who was still smiling lightly, and after a moment, he said: "You want to let the hand of the Xiahou family turn to Shang Jun, and this time it will change from the internal strife of the Xiahou clan to the civil strife of the Shang Kingdom, this move is really to the point, and it is extremely ruthless." What about the Xiahou family? What do you think about Xiahou Li's lineage? ”

Hearing this, Yuran raised her chin slightly, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she said with this look of smiling rather than smiling: "It's still those four words - the way of checks and balances." ”

"The way of checks and balances......" Zhu Liang lowered his head and read the word to himself, and after a while, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes were suddenly awakened, he looked at Yuran suddenly, and said: "The reason why you don't move the Xiahou family, but move the Xiahou family first, is because you want to let the Xiahou family's spearhead be aimed at Shang Jun, and let the people of the Xiahou family continue to be hostile to the family, so as to achieve the Xiahou family's containment of the family." ”

"You don't think you're stupid." Yuran will not be stingy with beautiful words.

"I also grew up with Shizi, so naturally I will learn a lot." Zhu Liang first muttered a few words, and then said: "Then the purpose of your visit to the Shang Kingdom this time is to stir up the situation in the Shang Kingdom?" Come to think of it, after all, you are Helian Yu. ”

Yu Ran exhaled softly, Feng Yun smiled lightly, she tilted her head to look at Zhu Liang, and said with an innocent face: "Why don't you believe that I really just came to Shangguo for a walk?" ”

"Then I guess no one wants you to go there." Isn't this where to go, where to go, where to go!

Yuran took out the folding fan from her sleeve, she raised her hand and gently tapped the back of Takeliang's head with the tip of the fan, and finally smiled and brushed her sleeve like a nobody.

"You're almost healed?" Yu Ran asked suddenly.

Takera nodded subconsciously at first, and only after a moment did he react and glance at Yu Ran with disdain, "You don't want me to do anything for you, do you?" ”

Yu Ran turned his head and grinned at him, "Help me keep an eye on Xiahou Zheng as much as possible." Of course, this is paid. ”

"I knew it." Takera pursed his lips.

"How's that, promise?" Tamarin asked with a smile.

Zhuliang was silent for a while, and then said: "I want a high salary for this kind of trouble, you can't cheat." ”

"Of course." Tamazen nodded.

When the two of them were about to return to the courtyard, Takera seemed to suddenly think of something, and he quickened his steps to Yuran and stopped Yuran.

He asked a little solemnly: "I suddenly remembered that you spoke so explicitly in front of Xiahou Zheng just now, so when he reacts, wouldn't he have murderous intentions towards you?" ”

"He's not going to kill me now. It should be said - he did not dare. Tamarin chuckled.

"What do you mean by that?" Takera asked rhetorically.

Yuran looked gentle and smiled, "It's always easy for people to scare themselves. ”

In this kind of very sensitive period of the Shang Dynasty, the more relaxed and natural her performance in front of Xiahou Zheng is, and the more sharp and explicit her words are, then Xiahou Zheng will think that her identity is not as ordinary as it seems. In order not to cause more trouble at this special time, Xiahou Zheng will definitely not choose to act rashly.

"Insidious, too insidious!" Zhuliang also understood it, so he sighed again and again.

Yuran smiled and said nothing.

"Hey, what are you both doing standing here?" Murong Anlan happened to come back and met Yuran and Zhuliang who were standing at the gate of the courtyard. He asked curiously, "What were you talking about?" What insidious? ”

"We are saying that the world is insidious, and people's hearts are sinister, so we have to guard against it!" Zhu Liang Xianyu Ran took a step to speak, he raised his head and sighed, his words were sincere.

"You're right...... It seems to make sense. Murong Anlan was stunned, but he still raised his hand and touched his chin, and then replied intermittently.

"Don't make sense, you two should go in quickly." Tamarin smiled silently.
