Chapter 25: The Four Princes of the Transparent People
Xia Ao continued to walk forward, and when he passed by a young man with big ears who was ordinary-looking and of medium stature, the other party turned his head and smiled gently, and nodded in greeting.
"Sixth brother, don't come unharmed."
"The fourth brother is still in style, haha......"
Xia Ao subconsciously smiled and nodded in response, walking non-stop.
It's just that after walking three steps, the smile on Xia Ao's face suddenly stiffened, and his pupils shrank slightly.
Wait, this is the Four Princes' Summer Decision?
No, what's going on with your own side?
How could he be in a happy mood for a while, as if he directly chose to ignore this person in his heart?
Xia Ao was a little confused, and after being confused, a cold color suddenly flashed in his eyes.
According to his temperament of making trouble to harvest domineering value, how could he let go of the four princes so easily?
Instinct is against will, and he almost doesn't realize it, if there is no ghost, then it is really a hell!
Thinking about the fact that in the past, almost the entire court habitually ignored the four princes, and today no one paid attention to Xia Du, who only came back once in a long time, which is a little strange.
The two corroborates each other, and Xia Ao immediately came to a conclusion - there is definitely something wrong with this fourth prince!
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Ao became cautious, and turned his head and walked back.
"Huh? Fourth brother? When did you come back? β
Xia Jue squinted, and a puzzled look flashed in the depths of his eyes, but the smile on his face was still there.
"Just came back last night."
Xia Jue replied softly, followed by a look of concern in his eyes.
"By the way, I heard that the sixth brother was assassinated two days ago, and he was not injured, right?"
"It's not hurt, it's just scared."
Xia Ao replied, then tilted his head and looked at Xia Du with a suspicious expression.
"By the way, this matter, it shouldn't be your fourth brother's handiwork, right?"
Xia Jie's face changed slightly, and he glared at Xia Ao angrily.
"What is the sixth brother talking nonsense! The fourth brother has no grievances with you, why do you want to harm you? β
"Besides, fourth brother, I'm just a bastard who eats and eats pleasure, not to mention that I can't recruit a strong person in the real realm to work for me, even if I can recruit him, how can I take a big risk to fight in the same room?"
Xia Ao narrowed his eyes and questioned with a sneer: "Isn't it?" Then why do you know that it was a true realm powerhouse who assassinated me? β
At this moment, everyone's attention couldn't help but be drawn to the two of them.
Originally, everyone didn't care, but listening to the conversation between the two, some people gradually frowned.
Xia Jie's face darkened, and he said speechlessly: "This matter has been spread all over the imperial capital, although ordinary people don't know the details, but which of the Manchu Dynasty magnates doesn't know?" Fourth brother, I can know this, what's so strange? β
"Sixth brother, I know your feelings, but this kind of thing really can't be thought about or talked about, no matter how bastard the fourth brother is, it is impossible for people to assassinate you!"
"What's more, what motive does the fourth brother have to harm you?"
"Motivation? Hey! β
Xia Ao sneered again and again, holding his arms around Xia Jue and constantly looking up and down.
"Everyone in the world knows that Lone is not on good terms with the crown prince, King Feng and King Wei, if Lone is assassinated, the murderers behind the scenes are none other than the three of them."
"If Lone really dies, I'm afraid that the entire court will already be in chaos, you attack me, and in the end, only you, King Anlie, who is far away from the imperial capital, can get the benefits of the fisherman!"
"Yes and no?!"
As soon as these words came out, all the people in the hall changed color, and many of them frowned and stared at Xia Jie, and for the first time there was doubt in their eyes.
Originally, everyone didn't take Xia Jue in their eyes, because no one thought that Xia Jue had the strength and confidence to compete for that position!
But listening to Xia Ao's analysis, it is not unreasonable.
It's just that although everyone has doubts, this suspicion is still shallow, and in the final analysis, it still involves a fundamental issue......
On the other side, in the face of Xia Ao's aggressiveness, Xia Jie's face turned pale with anger, and his eyes were full of innocence and anger that had been wronged.
"Sixth brother! You're just a strong argument! β
"Okay, since you have to think like this, then the imperial brother will ask you, the imperial brother and I have no background at all, and I can be described as poor and white! All the civil and military officials present are clear about this! β
"Don't say that I don't have that mind at all, even if I have, what am I fighting for?! If you are as weak as a mustard and get involved in such a dispute, isn't that looking for death? No matter how stupid I am, how can I be so stupid?! β
"Good! You can say that again! β
Xia Ao clapped his hands and praised, and then sneered again.
"Over the years, you have been far away from the imperial capital, like a transparent person. This seems normal, but when you think about it, it's not normal at all! β
"You are also a dignified fourth prince, even if you only get a reward from the king of the county, but in terms of status, you are not a few points worse than ordinary princes!"
"In this case, everyone still subconsciously forgets you, as if you don't exist at all, do you say normal?"
"Humph! This is clearly what you did on purpose! Because only then will no one pay attention to what you are doing and what kind of henchmen you are cultivating in secret! β
Xia Ao said loudly, and at the same time turned his head to look around at the hundred officials in the hall.
"Look at the solitary look, the ministers in this hall may belong to other factions or remain neutral on the surface, but in fact, they have long been your people!"
Listening to Xia Ao's increasingly lofty words, and facing many suspicious eyes, Xia Du's eyes flashed away.
But he hid it well, and his facial expressions didn't show anything unusual.
"The imagination of the sixth brother really amazes the imperial brother! That's it, just imagine it. β
Xia Jue sighed violently, revealing a bitter and self-deprecating look, and turned his head to stop paying attention to Xia Ao.
At this time, the third prince Xia Feng suddenly spoke.
"I heard that the Dayue Dynasty intends to marry my Daxia, and today's Da Dynasty meeting, my father also specially called the fourth brother and the sixth brother to participate......
"Think about it again, the assassination of the sixth brother also happened two days ago, well... When you think about it, that's a coincidence......"
Xia Feng said in a flat tone, although he didn't point it out directly, but who of the people present couldn't understand the meaning of the words?
For a moment, the gaze and atmosphere became strange.
Xia Ao raised his eyebrows, took a deep look at Xia Jie's side face, then sneered, walked directly to the front, and sat down on a rattan chair next to the door.
Seeing this, many people's faces turned dark again.
Although there is no clear division of positions in the Houxuan Palace, everyone stands in accordance with the order of the trains in the previous dynasty.
But these six princes are good, they appeared directly in the front of the civil and military officials, not to mention, they even sat down without scruples, this is too arrogant and domineering, right?
It's just that, in view of Xia Ao's obscenity before, no one has come forward to accuse him now, so as not to provoke a commotion if the accusation fails......
γDing! Before you sit alone in the hundred officials, the domineering value is +80]
After more than 100 breaths, the inner door opened, and an inner attendant stood outside the door and shouted loudly.
"Xuan: Hundred officials enter the court and ascend to the palace~"
