Chapter 450: Scarlet Court
"Master, there is someone in the palace, shall we see it?" The housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion bowed his head tremblingly and asked for instructions.
As the king of Caiyun and the lord of the Xiao clan, Ke Zaihou also knows the secret method of the Xiao clan that "people die like lights out". No, Ke Zaihou, who received the news, immediately sent someone to inquire about the news.
At present, the Xiao clan and the Caiyun King are still in a state of cooperation and defense, and they cannot take the temptation of their allies lightly.
"Ask him to come in. ”
Xiao Feng's voice couldn't hear the color of emotion, but this was what made everyone even more afraid.
Can you endure the pain of losing a child? I'm afraid it's just the calm before the storm!
"Uncle and grandfather, great-grandson greets you!"
"Get up. Xiao Feng didn't raise his eyelids, he still looked like the old god was there.
Everyone in the Xiao Mansion also looked cold, ignoring the enthusiasm of the people who came.
The man didn't care, just saluted Xiao Feng again, and said slowly: "Father learned that Xiao Da's "Illumination Lamp" was extinguished, and specially sent his nephew to come to condole. ”
Xiao Feng's body trembled, obviously the blow to him from this incident was not as insignificant as he appeared, but immediately he forcibly held it again, and even his tone did not change: "The king has a heart." ”
It was Ke Tianyan, the third son of King Ke Zaihou of Caiyun who came in the most, who was only twelve years old this year. As soon as this ghost kid entered the door, he played the emotional card. In terms of generation, he is indeed Xiao Feng's great-grandson's generation.
However, since the death of the "tyrant" Ke Renfeng, there has been an invisible barrier between the Caiyun royal family of the Central Court and Xiao Feng, and it is conceivable how many feelings are left.
Ke Renfeng has no queen, and the successor to the throne of Caiyun King is his younger brother Ke Renhai.
This is a very smart master, much stronger than his brother Ke Renfeng. And he also knows how to forbear, and when he changes to the human world, he is a world-famous hero like Gou Jian and Liu Bei. Taoguang is obscure, balances the court, and sits on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, he plays that is called a slippery.
In order to fight against Xiao Feng and Xiao Taishi, who leaned towards the government and the opposition, Ke Renhai supported a large group of political enemies such as Zuo Prime Minister Ding Chunqiu, Murong Fu, the secretary of the military department, and You Tanzhi, the hussar general, and went to the front to fight with Xiao Feng cruelly. also secretly rebelled against Xiao Feng's sworn brother, the national teacher Xuzhu and Duan Yu, the head of the Duan family.
The Xiao family had no intention of going to court, and the patriarch at that time, Xiao Feng, was even more disheartened because of the betrayal of his relatives. Under Ke Renhai's intentional or unintentional suppression, the Xiao family gradually moved away from the core of power. After Xiao Feng resigned from the position of the commander of the Central Wangting Wangcheng Guards, the Xiao family was even more defeated, and the whole family was full of false positions, without any real power in his hands, and became a nominal military family.
However, what Ke Renhai didn't expect was that he so painstakingly expelled Xiao Feng and the Xiao family from the Caiyun Dynasty, but as a result, he created the "Gate Valve Era" of the Central Royal Court.
The fall of royal power is the beginning of troubled times.
The Ding family, the Murong family, the You family, the Duan family...... Originally, it was a tool he used to deal with the Xiao family, but in the end, it couldn't be lost, and it became an existence a hundred times more dangerous than Xiao Feng.
When he was alive, he was able to balance the forces with his superb political skills, but when he was a hundred years later, these gatekeepers would definitely turn against his children and grandchildren!
Ke Renhai didn't solve this problem until he died, and his son Ke Zaihou couldn't.
After the originally trusted courtier helps him defeat the old gatekeeper, this trusted courtier will become the new gatekeeper against him. This is a strange circle that neither kings nor ministers can jump out of, and it is also a terrifying reincarnation that will forever entangle the Caiyun royal family!
The former Ding family, the Murong family, the You family, and the current Dugu family are all like this.
And now, this reincarnation has turned between these family gate valves, and it has turned back to the original point.
Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.
Xiao Feng looked at the well-behaved little prince in front of him, and there were only these emotions left.
"Did your father call you here just to ask for peace and condolences to the old man?"
Although Xiao Feng is old, he is not old and confused.
Ke Tianyan got up from the ground and straightened his waist, at this moment, he was no longer Xiao Feng's great-grandson, but the third prince of Caiyun Kingdom, the third heir to the throne of Caiyun. He does not represent himself, but the Caiyun King Ke Zaihou behind him!
"My uncle Mingjian, my father ordered his great-grandson to come, but he actually wanted to confirm one thing. ”
Ke Tianyan's eyes were sharp and aggressive, as bright as an eagle flying in the sky.
"The Great Commander's lights are out, if he really can't come back, then my father wants to know, can the agreement between the Ke and Xiao families be done?"
Ke Tianyan went straight to the point, explained his intentions, and went toe-for-tat with Xiao Feng in terms of momentum, but he did not fall behind at all.
Xiao Feng closed his eyes, and seemed to be a little unable to support it.
"I haven't seen Qiang'er's corpse yet, so the king is a little too anxious, right?"
"Father is just worried that the relationship between the Ke and Xiao families will be affected, and he also asks my aunt not to misunderstand. ”
Ke Tianyan's words are not leaky, and he doesn't look like a twelve-year-old boy at all.
Ke Zaihou, that bastard boy, gave birth to a good son!
Xiao Feng sighed and said, "The old man knows what your father wants. You go back first, and within three days, the old man will give your father a satisfactory answer. ”
"Uncle, the great-grandson retired. ”
Ke Tianyan gave a salute and got up to leave.
He knew that Xiao Feng had promised a thousand dollars, and he would definitely do what he had promised.
Xiao Qiang's disappearance instead became an opportunity to change the power of the central royal court. As long as Xiao Feng is willing to make a move, it is no longer just a luxury to disrupt and reorganize the current situation.
The purpose of coming here this time has been achieved, so don't go too much to stimulate this old man. After all, the pain of losing a child is not so pleasant!
After Ke Tianyan left, Xiao Feng waved his hand and asked those subordinates to go out as well.
Everyone was relieved and retired. Xiao Feng looked at these families who were scrambling to flee from him, there was no sadness or joy in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking......
......
Caiyun Historical Records: In the year 2222 of the Caiyun calendar, the fifth winter solstice of November in the 22nd year of Longxing (Ke Zaihou's year), Xiao Feng, the Taishi of the Central Royal Court, set up a banquet to invite hundreds of civil and military officials, and killed Dugu Yueguang of the Ministry of War and Dugu Yueyun of the Ministry of Rites, and 222 officials of his party and his henchmen, and returned to the king. Wang Yuezhi wanted to crown Xiao Feng as the king of the vassal with a different surname, but Xiao Feng did not accept it, and invited himself to be the envoy to the south of Caiyun. Wang Yunzhi added Xiao Feng as the supervision envoy of the Southern Continent and inspected the south on behalf of the king.
