Chapter 390 [Without Warning] (I)
Princess Anping's funeral was not a big deal, and even Hu Xiaotian didn't get any news, and when he learned about it, the princess's ashes had been buried, and they were buried next to her mother's tomb.
Hu Xiaotian was suddenly summoned into the palace, without warning before, when he came to the Heart Cultivation Palace, he had already seen a group of inner guards neatly prepared, and Murong Zhan, who had rarely appeared in public recently, was actually on the scene, and he whispered something to Qi Danei there.
Hu Xiaotian went over to say hello to the two, he was a deputy position, of course, he had to be more active, Hu Xiaotian bowed and saluted: "Good commander!" ”
Murong Zhan turned around and glanced at him, mumbled, didn't say a word to him, turned around and left. In front of a group of imperial guards, Murong Zhan did this tantamount to openly expressing his displeasure with Hu Xiaotian, which made Hu Xiaotian quite embarrassed.
Most of the imperial guards were not convinced by Hu Xiaotian, thinking that this guy He De could actually ascend to the sky in one step and mix up the position of deputy commander, seeing Murong Zhan giving Hu Xiaotian a cold face, everyone secretly applauded in their hearts.
Hu Xiaotian didn't take Murong Zhan's cold reception to heart, and deliberately said loudly: "Congratulations to Lord Commander!" "I secretly thought in my heart, if you are not Feiyan's father, how can I spare you, forget it, for the sake of your daughter who will serve me for the rest of her life, I don't care about you in general.
Qi Danei smiled at Hu Xiaotian, and arched his hand to Hu Xiaotian and said, "Why did Lord Hu arrive at this time?" ”?
Hu Xiaotian said: "I received the summons and came over non-stop for a while, you have already received the news?" Why didn't you send someone to inform me? ”
Qi Danei said: "Master Hu, we don't know what is going on. ”
Hu Xiaotian was suspicious, and said in his heart that all of you guards treat me as an outsider, just now Lao Tzu obviously saw you and Murong Zhan talking to each other, and I don't know what to mutter? Now you're playing dumb with me.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I asked the emperor to know." ”
Qi Danei nodded and said, "Master Hu, hurry up!" Don't delay. ”
Hu Xiaotian knew that there was no news from the mouths of these guys, and walked quickly to the gate of the Heart Cultivation Palace. In front of the door, he was stopped by an old eunuch, Hu Xiaotian recognized that this old eunuch was Wang Qian, who had accompanied Long Xuanen in the Ethereal Peak Lingxiao Palace to share weal and woe, but he didn't expect this old eunuch to keep the clouds open and see the moon, and he actually saw the light of day again, and he seemed to be much more energetic than the last time he saw him.
Wang Qian put the whisk on his shoulder with a whisk in his hand, and said with a smile: "Lord Hu, right?" ”
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said, "It's me!" Princes. We've met before! ”
Wang Qian said with a smile: "Miscellaneous family remembers!" Last year, on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Lord Hu accompanied Her Royal Highness Princess Anping to visit the emperor. ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "The prince really has a good memory. Since Wang Qian remembers it so clearly, he should not forget the scene when he rushed into the palace to rescue Long Xiyue from the old emperor, if the old emperor also remembered it, wouldn't it be troublesome, thinking that he pushed the old guy to the ground because he was eager to save people, thinking of this Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel weak in his heart.
Wang Qiandao: "Lord Hu, please come with me, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside." ”
Hu Xiaotian followed Wang Qian into the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, and when he walked into it, he smelled the smell of cigarette smoke, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs stood on both sides without saying a word. Looking particularly solemn, Hu Xiaotian whispered to Wang Qian: "Does the prince know what His Majesty summoned me for?" ”
Wang Qian smiled: "You'll know later." ”
There was a hazy figure behind the bead curtain in front, and Hu Xiaotian secretly guessed whether it was the emperor. Wang Qian glanced at him, and Hu Xiaotian quickly knelt on the ground: "Weichen Hu Xiaotian greets His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
An old and deep voice came from behind the bead curtain: "Excuse me, come in!" ”
The two palace maids opened the bead curtain with golden hooks, Hu Xiaotian got up and bowed down and walked in, but saw the old emperor Long Xuanen sitting there. On the offering table in front of him was an incense burner with three incense sticks inserted into it. Cigarette smoke.
Long Xuanen's profound gaze swept over Hu Xiaotian's face, his gaze fixed on the multicolored dragon gold medal on Hu Xiaotian's waist, and then nodded and said, "Do you know what I asked you to do?" ”
Hu Xiaotian said respectfully: "I don't know! ”
Long Xuanen said: "I will go to Tianlong Temple tonight, and you will accompany me over." ”
Hu Xiaotian was shocked, what? The news of the old emperor was too tightly covered, and there was no news leaked out before. Didn't he say that he would leave for Tianlong Temple after Princess Anping was buried, why did he suddenly change his mind? Or has Princess Anping been buried quietly? Even if Hu Xiaotian had a thousand questions in his heart, he didn't dare to raise them lightly.
Long Xuanen said: "Yesterday, I have buried Xiyue's ashes. His voice was full of loneliness.
Only then did Hu Xiaotian know that Long Xuanen had buried his ashes, and Princess Anping was also a princess of a country after all, why was she buried so quietly? Didn't gather the princes and nobles to attend? I haven't even heard of it, it seems that Long Xuanen intends to deal with this matter in a low-key manner. At this time, Hu Xiaotian found that there was an embroidered image of a woman on the table, and the embroidered statue should be three points similar to Long Xiyue.
Long Xuanen said: "The most painful thing in my life is Xiyue, if it is according to my will, I will never marry her into the country of tigers and wolves." ”
Hu Xiaotian secretly sneered in his heart, you don't want to marry Xiyue into Dayong, you want to marry her into Sharjah, Dayong is still the land of the Central Plains, that Sharjah is a wild place, you are more ruthless and cold-blooded than your waste son.
Long Xuanen said: "Hu Xiaotian, I ask you, is Xiyue in pain before she dies?" ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "The princess was assassinated, and it happened suddenly, but the princess did not suffer much before she died. ”
Long Xuanen nodded: "Hearing you say that, I feel a little better." ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "When is Your Majesty going to leave?" ”
Long Xuanen said: "Let's go when it's time!" ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "The minister is going to prepare!" ”
Long Xuanen said: "There is nothing to prepare, the Murong Commander who should be prepared has already been arranged." ”
Hu Xiaotian finally knew why Murong Zhan appeared outside the Heart Cultivation Hall just now, and after a long time, these inner guards were ready, but he was the only one who left him, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little depressed, he really regarded Lao Tzu as an outsider!
Long Xuanen waved his hand and motioned for Hu Xiaotian to step back.
Hu Xiaotian followed Wang Qian to the outside of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and said with a wry smile: "Is the prince also going?" ”
Wang Qian shook his head and said: "Originally, I wanted to follow the past, but Your Majesty sympathized with the old slave and was afraid that I would not be able to endure hardship, so I was asked to stay in the palace, and Lord Hu must take care of His Majesty when he goes." ”
Hu Xiaotianxin said that you still want me to take care of it? The old emperor didn't know what the purpose of getting himself to Tianlong Temple was, thinking of what his father had said to him before, the old emperor was now at the time when he was at the tightest time, and he wanted to pit the Xu family in Jinling, was it to put some pressure on the Xu family through this matter? If the Xu family doesn't have some blood, they will never be able to leave Tianlong Temple?
The more Hu Xiaotian thinks about it, the more likely this is it, don't look at himself as the deputy commander of the imperial guards, but this time he went to Tianlong Temple to protect the more than 100 guards of the old emperor, I am afraid that no one will be convinced of him, let alone listen to the command, if the old emperor gives an order, these guards will be able to rush up and cut themselves.
I was in a hurry when I entered the palace just now, and I didn't know what was going on, so I didn't have time to explain to my family.
Hu Xiaotian said to Wang Qian: "Princess, there is still some time before the unitary time, I want to go back and talk to my family first, so as not to worry about them." ”
Wang Qian still smiled and said: "No need, Lord Hu's mansion will send someone to explain, the reason why Lord Hu was not informed in advance about coming to the palace is because the emperor's itinerary must be kept secret, except for these people who accompanied His Majesty to Tianlong Temple, no one else knows, and the news cannot be spread, this is also for the safety of His Majesty, Lord Hu thinks right?" ”
Hu Xiaotian secretly complained in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face and said: "It should be, it should be, it is still the prince who is thoughtful." ”
Wang Qiandao: "Lord Hu is also young and promising, otherwise His Majesty would not have chosen you to lead the team to be responsible for his safety, although it is the honor of Lord Hu, but Lord Hu must also know the responsibilities that need to be borne on his shoulders, so the miscellaneous family does not need to emphasize it to Lord Hu, right?" ”
Hu Xiaotian heard the threat in Wang Qian's words, nodded and said, "I understand my humble position!" ”
Wang Qian saluted Hu Xiaotian and said, "The miscellaneous family goes to serve the emperor, and Lord Hu is at his own convenience!" ”
Hu Xiaotian looked around at the group of imperial guards standing straight below, and was really angry in his heart, Mary next door, don't tell me such an important thing, and still treat me as your boss? At this time, Qi Danai greeted him with a smile on his face: "Deputy Commander, did Your Majesty tell you anything?" ”
Hu Xiaotian looked at Qi Danei with a sneer, this guy was still pretending to be stupid with himself, and he didn't break it, he stretched out his hand and put it on Qi Danei's shoulder, pulled him aside and said, "Your Majesty is ready to leave for Tianlong Temple." ”
Qi Danai pretended to be surprised: "Really? ”
"Of course it is!"
Qi Danei said: "My subordinates are going to prepare!" ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "What is there to prepare, I think what you guys lack is not weapons, but courage, the courage to die for the emperor!" He hooked his finger at Qi Danei and whispered in his ear: "Let them stand by the wall, I have something to say to them." ”
Although Qi Danei was unconvinced, Hu Xiaotian was the top boss after all, so he could only gather a group of guards to stand by the wall.
Hu Xiaotian came to the front of the team with his hands behind his back, and told them their tasks, in fact, these guards all knew before Hu Xiaotian that they wanted to protect the emperor's travel, and everyone hid it from Hu Xiaotian.
