Chapter 453: The Price
Xu Mo frowned, hurriedly helped him up, grabbed his hand to check the pulse, and found that he was only relieved to be taken the pill that had been temporarily hidden for cultivation.
"Xu Mo, Feng Xiu ......" Xu Rui grabbed Xu Mo's wrist, looking a little anxious.
Xu Mo hurriedly reassured him and said, "Feng Xiu is fine, it's just where he is temporarily imprisoned." Presumably you have also figured it out, it was actually a bureau set up by His Majesty that you would be so easy to get out before, and the purpose was just to pull out the last hidden stake of the Xu family in the capital. ”
Xu Rui was silent for a while, and then nodded lightly, "It's me who underestimates him, and I'm too confident." ”
Xu Mo didn't answer this, "After that, Your Majesty ordered someone to pull out all the hidden stakes of the Xu family in the capital, and none of them were missed." ”
Xu Rui took a deep breath, looked at Xu Mo and said, "Say whatever you want to say directly, no need to beat around the bush." ”
Xu Mo glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty let you go with Feng Xiu." ”
"The price?"
"Xu Family"
Xu Rui's face changed, let go of the hand that was holding Xu Mo, and looked ahead in a daze.
Seeing this, Xu Mo didn't force him, went back to the stone chair, and was silent.
After a long while, Xu Rui spoke: "There are thousands of people in the Xu family, but there are ...... of them."
Xu Mo lowered his head when he heard this, and said softly, "For some people in the Xu family, Your Majesty will not punish all of them. ”
Xu Rui closed his eyes fiercely, then looked at Xu Mo, and said with a light expression, "If I betray the Xu family, do you think Feng Xiu and I will have a peaceful day for the rest of our lives?" ”
"Don't worry about this," Xu Mo said with a serious face, "Since Your Majesty said so, I will definitely protect you and Feng Xiu." ”
"It's not that I don't believe it, but the Xu family is a family that has been around for hundreds of years, and the root system is huge, if they know that I betrayed the Xu family, they will definitely not let me go, and when I still have Feng Xiu, how should I deal with myself?"
"Cousin, you should believe in Your Majesty's ability, the important thing is that she will do it if she agrees. Besides, for the power of the Xu family, His Majesty will definitely not let go of the slightest. ”
"Then my father still has ...... What about grandparents and grandparents? What do they do? ”
Xu Mo pursed the corners of his mouth, his face was gloomy, and said, "I don't want to hide it from you, grandfather and grandmother Yunchen may look at my mother's face, but second uncle, Your Majesty will not let him go no matter what." ”
Xu Rui closed his eyes fiercely and didn't say a word.
"Cousin, you should know that no matter whether you do this or not, this ending will not change, the court and the Xu family are knots that cannot be untied, your approach is just to end early, and some endings have long been decided, and no one can change them."
"Xu Mo, that's my father, even if he has always treated me as a pawn."
Xu Mo also lost his voice when he heard this, he understood Xu Rui's entanglement, after all, he was his father, so some things were really difficult to decide.
Neither of them spoke, and the scene fell silent all at once.
After a while, Xu Rui suddenly looked up at Xu Mo and said, "Xu Mo, what if I exchange everything from the Xu family for my father's life?" ”
Xu Mo looked at him with a shock in his heart and did not speak.
"You should know that the families are rich in heritage, and they are not as simple as they seem. If there is no one to guide you in some things, it will not help you even to send thousands of troops. ”
Xu Mo was silent for a while, and said, "I need to know Your Majesty about this matter before replying to you." ”
