Hong Beimo looked at the Lingxiao Palace in front of him, and unconsciously saw the thrilling battle in front of him, gathering the strength of himself, Li Yuncong, and Murong Zhan to defeat Ji Feihua with difficulty, and the three of them also paid a heavy price, they lost five years of longevity because of the use of blood transformation like a skill, Li Yuncong also lost his right eye in this duel, Murong Zhan was seriously injured, in fact, the three of them have not fully recovered until now. What really worries Hong Beimo is not these, but ......

His eyes unconsciously fell to the Yao Chi at his feet, Ji Feihua jumped down from the waterfall on the day of his defeat, and in the past month, he mobilized all the forces that could be mobilized in the palace, searching the entire Yao Chi and the Ethereal Mountain, but still found nothing, Ji Feihua did not see anyone alive or dead. Hong Beimo had an ominous premonition in the depths of his heart, Ji Feihua was not dead!

Long Xuanen's old voice sounded in his ears: "Do you think he will still be alive?" ”

Hong Beimo asked knowingly, "Who is Your Majesty talking about?" ”

Long Xuanen glanced at Hong Beimo, sighed and said: "You don't have to hide it, in fact, I can guess that for more than a month, I have not stopped searching for Yaochi, and it seems that Ji Feihua's body has not been found." ”

Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty Mingjian, it is true that you haven't found it yet, but your Majesty can rest assured that Ji Feihua should be dead." ”

Long Xuanen sighed, he heard that there were too many uncertain factors in Hong Beimo's tone.

Hong Beimo didn't want to continue on this topic, and his eyes fell on the collapsed Lingxiao Palace: "When does Your Majesty plan to rebuild?" ”

Long Xuanen shook his head and said, "Never rebuild!" "Lingxiao Palace, the highest palace in the imperial city, standing on it can overlook the scene of the entire palace, I remember when the Lingxiao Palace was just built, he used to stand here, there is a feeling that all beings are under my feet, but since he was placed under house arrest in the Lingxiao Palace, what has been left here is the most painful experience and memory in this life, and he does not want to recall what happened here.

Hong Beimo said: "It's okay." ”

Long Xuanen said: "You have already started to rebuild the Heavenly Machine Bureau?" ”

Hong Beimo said: "The Tianji Bureau has always existed, but it has been silent for a while. ”

Long Xuanen said: "Mr. Hong is a scholar of heaven and earth, do you know if there is really an immortal art in this world?" ”

Hong Beimo said: "I have heard countless people mention the art of immortality, but I have never seen a single person who can achieve immortality. ”

When Long Xuanen heard him say this, his face showed a look of despair, and he sighed softly and said, "I also understand, in fact, there is no such thing as immortality in this world, and I don't know how much time there is left in this world. He paused, looked at Hong Beimo and said, "Is there a whereabouts of Ren Tianqing of the Xuantian Pavilion?" ”

Hong Beimo said: "There has been no news of him in the past two years. ”

Long Xuanen said: "If there is really someone in this world who can find the secret recipe of immortality, that person must be him." ”

Hong Beimo smiled: "It is said that Ren Tianqing can come back to life, but he didn't even save his wife back then." ”

Long Xuanen said: "If it weren't for that, how could he become the number one divine doctor in the world!" ”

Hong Beimo didn't speak, the first in the world, if a person really becomes the first in the world, then how lonely should he be in his heart!

Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan traveled day and night, and finally returned to Kangdu with stars and moons, thinking that because of this palace change, Kangdu was going to become rumorous again, and the chickens and dogs were restless, but they didn't expect that except for the inspection of the city gate when entering and exiting the city, it was stricter than in the past, and there was no special change, Hu Xiaotian did not dare to return to the palace directly to resume his life, but came to Baofeng Hall first.

According to the agreement between him and Xiao Tianmu, Xiao Tianmu had already returned to Kangdu before him to arrange his parents' affairs in case of accidents.

Xiao Tianmu was also very surprised when he heard that Hu Xiaotian was back, and led Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan to the inner house.

Hu Xiaotian didn't care about resting and came directly to the courtyard where Xiao Tianmu lived, and saw Xiao Tianmu sitting in the shade of a tree, and a pot of good tea had been made on the stone table beside him, just waiting for Hu Xiaotian to come over. Hearing Hu Xiaotian's footsteps, the corners of Xiao Tianmu's lips showed a knowing smile: "The third brother is back!" ”

Hu Xiaotian walked forward quickly, grabbed his arm and said, "Second brother! I am back! ”

Xiao Tianmu held his hand and shook it, "It's good to come back safely!" Fast! Have a cup of tea first! He fumbled with the teapot and wanted to pour tea for Hu Xiaotian.

Hu Xiaotian picked up the teapot first, helped him fill the teacup first, poured a cup himself, drank it clean in one go, felt the fragrance of tea in his heart, and his whole body was comfortable, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said: "The tea leaves in my hometown are delicious." ”

Xiao Tianmu smiled and said: "Water is sweet in my hometown, and Dayong is not without good tea, you can't drink the same tea there, it's nothing more than nostalgia in your heart!" ”

Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "The second brother always contains such a big truth when he speaks, and following you has made me gain a lot of knowledge." ”

Xiao Tianmu smiled: "You must be thinking of me nagging." ”

"How dare you!" The two brothers laughed at the same time.

Hu Xiaotian drank another cup of tea, and then he felt the thirst in his throat decrease, and said in a low voice: "Second brother, what's the situation in the palace?" In fact, he also heard a lot of news along the way, but these news could not be confirmed after all.

Xiao Tianmu briefly explained what he had learned.

After hearing this, Hu Xiaotian unconsciously tightened his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Are you saying that the old emperor has returned to the throne, and now he still follows the previous qiē and has not made any changes?" ”

Xiao Tianmu nodded and said, "Not bad!" Except for the killing of Ji Feihua, Empress Jian and the crown prince, this political turmoil did not affect too many other people. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "The old emperor has always been cruel and cold-blooded, why did he suddenly change his personality this time?" Actually let go of these courtiers who betrayed him in the past? ”

Xiao Tianmu said: "Maybe he has experienced this twist and turn, and finally understood some things, and also recognized the current reality, maintaining the status quo is the most feasible strategy at present, if he kills on a large scale, I am afraid that his dynasty will face the danger of overturning immediately, proving that he is not old and confused, and he is not so mediocre as to completely destroy the ancestral family business." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "How is my father now?" In his opinion, when the old emperor ascended the throne, his father should be the first group of people to be rehabilitated, after all, his father was once a favorite minister in front of Long Xuanen.

Xiao Tianmu said: "I still live in Shuijing'er Hutong, Mrs. Hu is not in Kangdu, I heard that I went to my mother's house in Jinling." He obviously understood what Hu Xiaotian meant when he asked about his family, and said in a low voice: "At present, the imperial court has not made any personnel changes, all officials have been used, and the old emperor has also released rumors, he will not be responsible for anything before, even Wen Chenghuan and Zhou Ruiyuan have not been affected in any way." ”

Hu Xiaotian was amazed, picked up the teacup and poured it again: "It seems that the old emperor has really changed his temper after this twist and turn." ”

Xiao Tianmu said: "Princess Anping is his biological daughter!" He was obviously reminding Hu Xiaotian that Long Yelin may not care about the death of Princess Anping's sister, but Long Xuanen is different, Long Xiyue is his biological daughter, and he may be furious because of this matter, and it may not be known whether Hu Xiaotian will be held responsible.

Hu Xiaotian is worried about this matter, the royal family has little feelings, even the father and daughter will not have any true feelings, he once accompanied Long Xiyue to visit the old emperor Long Xuanen in the Lingxiao Palace of the Ethereal Mountain on Chinese New Year's Eve last year, when Long Xuanen choked Long Xiyue's throat like a fierce god, and almost put his own daughter to death, when Hu Xiaotian heard the movement and rushed into the Lingxiao Palace in time, pushing Long Xuanen to. I don't know if the old emperor still remembers that incident, and if he remembers his appearance. It's just that at that time, I didn't expect that the old emperor would still have the day of restoration. But I'm not afraid, isn't there still a card of Li Yuncong? At least Li Yuncong can prove that he also contributed to the old emperor at the beginning.

Xiao Tianmu said: "What are you going to do?" When will I return to the palace? ”

Hu Xiaotian didn't answer his question, but said in a low voice: "Has Wu Jingshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, come back?" ”

Xiao Tianmu said: "He hasn't returned to Kangdu yet, and he is still waiting for your news in Tianbo City, and it is estimated that he is not sure of the old emperor's attitude, so he deliberately delayed the trip, first, to wait for your news, and secondly, to wait and see how things develop." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "I will see you sooner or later, but this time my trip to Dayong is not a fault even if it is not a great achievement, and this time I came back from Dayong and brought a good news." ”

Xiao Tianmu smiled: "What good news? ”

Only then did Hu Xiaotian tell the news that Xue Shengkang had sent Dongliang County to Dakang as compensation.

Xiao Tianmu frowned unconsciously after hearing this: "It sounds like a good thing, but in fact, it is a hot potato thrown to Dakang." If Dakang wants to garrison Dongliang County after taking over, he is afraid that how much he sends it will be equivalent to sheep into the wolf pack. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "No matter what his purpose is, he has finally helped Dakang to save face, I have this city in hand, and I can explain it to the court." ”

Xiao Tianmu said: "Although the old emperor regained the authority of Dakang, I heard that he rarely cares about the government now, and it is the King of Yongyang who governs on his behalf!" ”

Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard King Yongyang, he had been in the palace for a long time, and the prince and county lord had also come into contact with a lot, but he knew everything that was famous and famous, but this King Yongyang had never heard of it, could it be the illegitimate son of the old emperor? He scratched his head and said, "King Yongyang, why haven't I heard of it?" ”

Xiao Tianmu said: "This King of Yongyang can be called the most special prince of Dakang since the founding of the country. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "What's so special? ”

Xiao Tianmu lowered his voice and said, "This King of Yongyang is a woman!" ”R1152
