Chapter 151: The Son of the King of the East
Ximen Zhe believes that there must be someone behind Xia Feng, otherwise how could he do these things now with his identity as a small leader of the border gates? Not to mention stealing the contract quietly, can you still make the people who were sent to the frontier to investigate him not find out anything? So how did he sneak back to the capital and steal the contract? If you want to hide from the world, it is difficult for him to do it alone.
Now it seems that the identity of the Dong family, who has business dealings with the palace, is very suspicious, if it is not controlled by Xia Feng, it must be someone related to Xia Feng.
Now Xia Feng's blatant appearance shows that he is not afraid of exposing these problems at all, the Dong family has been talking about business with the imperial office in the palace for about three years, and the cloth required in the palace in these three years is provided by the Dong family, that is, the bureau involving Xia Feng has been arranged for at least three years, or even longer.
What kind of person is behind the scenes?
"Lord Wang, our wire newspaper in southern Xinjiang has sent back news that the general of the border has discovered the heirs of the king of Dongdong who were left behind by the people, and he has recently sent someone to escort him back to Beijing, I am afraid that it will be there soon." Mo Qinghan came to report to Ximen Zhe.
Because the transmission speed of the line newspaper is faster, it is necessary to arrive in the capital one step ahead of people and transmit it to the Xiwangfu.
"The heir of the East King?" Ximen Zhe recalled the past and had the impression that Ximen Sheng seemed to be the son of a concubine, but it seemed that he died when he dealt with Ximen Sheng, so he never mentioned it.
"Yes, the news is true, and it is estimated that the excerpt for the emperor is about to enter the palace." Mo Qinghan said, "That person seems to have definite evidence as the son of the East King. ”
"If this child is still alive, he should be about twenty years old." Simon Zhe said, "Why was it only discovered now?" ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to figure out all the questions until I see him." Mo Qinghan said, "What my subordinates are worried about is that if he is really the son of the East King, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the prince." ”
Ximen Zhe understood what Mo Qinghan meant, if this person was really Ximen Sheng's son, then his death back then was done by someone with a heart, presumably because he saw that the situation of Dongwang was not good, so he made a means of stealing beams and changing pillars, and deliberately rescued him. If he had this experience, he would inevitably regard Simon Zhe as an enemy and remember the past in his heart. Then, the significance of his sudden appearance now is not trivial.
"What can a milky boy do to this king?" Simon Zhe disagreed. Even if he has secretly arranged something incognito for so many years, can he be shaken?
It's just that if you really want to provoke the events of more than ten years ago again, the Qingyuan Dynasty will inevitably make waves again.
Back then, the East King was destroyed by him, but later learned from Ximen Hao that the East King was violently ill and actually died in the hands of their father, which is an unknown secret, and it is rumored that the East King died in his hands, and he disregarded his brotherhood and cut the grass to the roots. He, the enemy who killed his father, must sit down.
Is it true that someone has come back to collect the debt? Do you want to set off another cannibalism between relatives?
The court has always been the most dangerous place in the world, and Ximen Zhe knows it.
But after practicing Buddhism in Wan'an Temple for so many years, I still can't see through the worldly things. When he woke up from a dream and put down Su Ran's painting, he did not hesitate to return to the capital and return to the West Palace.
He wants to compensate for the people he has left behind for many years, to compensate for the son who has been used as a pawn by him since birth. Although he no longer competes for the emperor, he still grasps the position under one person, because his experience has taught him that as long as the palace is his home and there are family members he cares about, he needs to guard his own power in order to live fearlessly.
He is actually not a person who is suitable for practicing Buddhism, after practicing for so many years, he is still entangled in the red dust, and he also fell in love with Dai Xiao, and he was involved in an affair again, and he was tired.
"Also, Yichen and the prince Yiqi also returned to Beijing with the person named Ximen Wuji, and they happened to meet together." Mo Qinghan added.
"These two children, do you want to come back for the New Year?" Ximenzhe thought of his son, and the corners of his lips curled, he hadn't seen Yichen for two years, he must have grown a lot taller and stronger.
Although it was expected that Dai Xiao let Butterfly Dance go, Xia Feng still pondered for a long time after listening to Butterfly Dance's words.
Dai Xiao was willing to intercede with Ximen Zhe for Butterfly Dance, indicating that her heart had not left Ximen Zhe, she firmly believed that Ximen Zhe would agree, and Ximen Zhe listened to Dai Xiao's words and let Butterfly Dance go, which shows that there is trust between the two.
There is trust between the two, which is a rope that is not easy to cut, and it takes a lot of effort to use.
"Xia Gongzi," Dai Xiao knocked on the door in front of Xia Feng.
Xia Feng got up and walked over and opened the door, not wanting Daixiao to run to him.
"Daixiao, what's the matter?" Xia Feng asked quietly.
Dai Xiao handed a small bag to Xia Feng.
Xia Feng guessed the contents of the bag at a glance, but he didn't answer, his expression was solemn, "Dai Xiao, no matter what you think of me, I treat you as a friend, Dong Feng and Xia Feng are just two names of the same person, if it weren't for the will of God, I wouldn't want to be surnamed Xia, and be disliked by you." ”
"Xia Gongzi." Dai Xiao looked at Xia Feng in a daze, and her rich bookish atmosphere was mixed with a bit of loneliness and pain.
"I don't dislike you." Dai Xiao thought that Xia Feng was suffering because he was the son of a traitor and thief, "You are you, and it has nothing to do with your father, otherwise the emperor will not let you go." ”
"But you care about my identity as the Xia family, I already understood it, so I deliberately concealed my real name, I just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to explain to you, but it was too sudden." Summer Wind Road.
Yes, Dai Xiao thought, if Xia Feng didn't use Dong Feng as Dong Feng at the beginning, but directly told herself that he was Xia Feng, then she probably wouldn't have taken Fluttershy with him, maybe they were still wandering around at this time, and they had no fixed place to live.
In recent days, his own indifference has been too unfair to him. Xia Feng has been treating himself well from beginning to end, and even bought a private school for the sake of the dispute between the children, but he alienated him with just one identity.
"Brother Xia," Dai Xiao slowly raised her eyes, looking at Xia Feng's lonely expression, a little unbearable, "I'm sorry, I'm too stubborn." ”
"Daixiao!" Xia Feng's brows moved, and the Dai Xiao who was friendly with him returned. He believes that time can precipitate everything, and his intentions can eventually be exchanged for returns, which he uses as a sharp weapon against Ximenzhe.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xia, we're still good friends." Dai Xiao said, holding the bag in her hand, there were a few pieces of broken silver in it, which was the salary she had just received from the Li family, and she wanted to give it to Xia Feng as rent.
"Since we're friends, put away what you're holding." Xia Feng didn't want to look at the bag, as if it was very dazzling when it appeared in front of the two of them at this time.
