Chapter 369: The Xiao Family

Guo Zhengfan turned his face and glanced at Xiao Ge, there were many things he wanted to say in his heart, and the corners of his mouth spit back, staring at Xiao Ge, Xiao Ge did not have the mentality of Guo Zhengfan, he hated him very much, and his fists were already clenched.

The emperor dissuaded and said: "Xiao Ge, say everything well, there is no need to investigate what happened more than 20 years ago, the first emperor was also an unintentional mistake back then, which caused such a result, if you want to atone for your sins, please let me atone for your sins instead of the first emperor."

Xiao Ge said: "How to do it according to the emperor's wishes, is it just like that, thousands of lives are just counted", the emperor explained: "No", the emperor doesn't know how to decide, on the one hand is Guo Zhengfan, on the other side is Xiao Ge, one is the court official, the other is a famous chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes, and he is also a person who wants to serve himself.

"Then let the mourning family make it clear", a woman's voice came from outside the hall, listening to the voice has passed the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, the emperor heard the voice and hurriedly walked down from the throne in the hall, a person who can make the emperor so respectful, and this is a woman, only the queen mother has such great ability, the emperor hurriedly greeted him, bowed and said: "The queen mother."

A kind old man appeared in front of Xiao Ge, whether it was his body shape or appearance, he could see that he was rich and elegant, Guo Zhengfan turned around and said: "Queen Mother", Xiao Ge also arched his hand and said: "Queen Mother", although I don't know what the purpose of this queen mother is, who is it to help, out of courtesy, Xiao Ge still calls her 'Queen Mother', which is not an exaggeration, the Queen Mother is also very polite, waved her hand and said: "Get up."

At this time, Xiao Ge, Liu Yuxiang, and Guo Zhengfan said in unison: "Thank you for the Empress Dowager", the Empress Dowager came to Xiao Ge with the support of the emperor, carefully looked at Xiao Ge's appearance, and sighed: "It's too similar, it's too similar."

Xiao Ge was surprised by the Queen Mother's look like this, and he didn't know what she was talking about, so he asked: "I don't know what the Queen Mother said is too similar", the Queen Mother said: "Guo Qingjia, is this person very much like a person", Guo Zhengfan nodded and replied: "Hui Yu Queen Mother, it's too similar, Wei Chen can guess who he is when he meets him for the first time, but there are many people in this world who are very similar."

Xiao Ge and Liu Yuxiang were confused when they stood aside, when they met Guo Zhengfan for the first time in Guo's mansion, Guo Zhengfan felt very strange about his appearance, and the Queen Mother said: "He is Xiao Hailong's descendant, can't you see it."

Guo Zhengfan said: "It may be that Weichen is clumsy, and he can't see it at a glance, he is still too far behind Xiao Hailong", the Queen Mother nodded slightly, and the emperor asked: "Queen Mother, General Xiao Hailong was a powerful Quartet back then."

Xiao Ge looked at everyone with strange eyes, the Queen Mother and Guo Zhengfan connected their fate with Xiao Hailong, they were able to guess some things, when Xiao Hailong died, the body was still left in the Xiaoyao faction, his master Li Tianlong used to be the best friend with Xiao Hailong, and naturally thought of some things, but he was not sure, the Queen Mother said to Xiao Ge: "Xiao Ge, if the mourning family guesses correctly, your master is Li Tianlong."

Xiao Ge said: "People in the rivers and lakes know that my master is Li Tianlong, which is not surprising", the Queen Mother said: "But the mourning family also knows that your master and Xiao Hailong are very good friends", Xiao Ge said: "Xiao Hailong", this name has not appeared once, since the beginning of the treasure, the name Xiao Hailong has always been with him, but Li Tianlong has never said this to Xiao Ge, the Queen Mother said: "That's right, Xiao Hailong is your father."

Xiao Ge was surprised and said: "What evidence do you have to prove that Xiao Hailong is my father, my master said that my parents have died a long time ago, where is the father, the queen mother wants to use Xiao Hailong's reputation to suppress Xiao, although we all have the same surname Xiao, but we are not our own family."

The Queen Mother then took a painting from the palace maid behind her, and said to Xiao Ge: "You don't believe my words at all, let you see what your father looked like", a painting slowly unfolded, I didn't expect that the person in the painting looked very similar to herself, Liu Yuxiang also felt very curious, and stepped forward to take a look, whether it was the figure or the appearance, it was very similar to Xiao Ge, looked at the portrait, and looked at Xiao Ge, the more I looked at it, the more I looked like it.

The Queen Mother said: "The mourning family knows that Xiao Daxia doesn't believe it, and the painting is signed with the year and month of the portrait, not to mention that the age of the paper can be seen, and it can be guessed with ink, and it is impossible for the mourning family to draw it in such a short time."

Xiao Ge was not surprised and touched it with his hand, and felt that the paper did have some years, and the signature time on the portrait was the eighth year of Emperor Ming Xiao, that is, two years before the incident in Yinyi Village, Guo Zhengfan said: "What do you believe now, I won't let you find out about this matter", Xiao Ge was very bad in his heart, and he didn't know where to start for a while, and after ten thousand thoughts, Xiao Ge said: "What do you mean."

Guo Zhengfan said: "Maybe you don't know Lu Dao, your father Xiao Hailong and I were good brothers back then, and your father was among the people who carried out the order back then", the Queen Mother also nodded and agreed, Xiao Ge said: "I don't believe it, how can my father be Xiao Hailong, you are a show that you are working together", the Queen Mother said: "I don't believe it, you can ask your master when you go back, he knows all this."

Xiao Ge said: "My master is no longer alive, but the thing I question is how the Queen Mother knows that my master and Xiao Hailong are close friends", the emperor said: "General Xiao Hailong can be regarded as a first-class martial arts master in the court, punching treacherous villains, leading the army is even more powerful, and has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, although I was not the emperor at the time, but I have known Xiao Hailong's prestige since I was a child, and the loyal ministers in the court respect him, and the corrupt officials are afraid of him."

Liu Yuxiang said: "It seems that what they said is not a lie, I have also heard Xiongfei talk about Xiao Hailong, but the general, the martial arts are one of the best masters in the rivers and lakes, do you still remember the treasure."

Xiao Ge thought about it, and in retrospect, the person who buried the treasure back then was headed by Xiao Hailong, Xiao Ge nodded, and Liu Yuxiang said: "Thirty years ago, the person who buried the treasure was planned by General Xiao Hailong, with the Sword Sect Sect Master Sword God, the prefect of Nanjing City, Tong Yanming, Huang Zijun, and Guo Zhengfan." , Xiao Ge suddenly turned his eyes to look at Guo Zhengfan, the person in front of him didn't seem to look like the Guo Zhengfan back then, the person who could become a brother with General Xiao Hailong must also be a brave and benevolent person, but the Guo Zhengfan in front of him was completely different, he wanted to kill himself as soon as he met, but fortunately, the emperor was there, so he avoided death.

Guo Zhengfan said: "I didn't have my share in the treasure back then, it was the four of them, there was no me at all", I felt very angry when I thought of what happened thirty years ago, Liu Yuxiang said: "But there is your name in the place where the treasure is buried, what can you explain about this, the evidence is conclusive", Guo Zhengfan said: "If I participated in the burial of the treasure back then, how could I still let Zhao Delin order to go down and try my best to find the treasure, isn't this a superfluous move."

Xiao Ge thought to himself: "The thing that spread the treasure news last year was Zhao Delin, Zhao Delin didn't look like a liar at first glance, maybe it was really Guo Zhengfan's ignorance at the beginning, Xiao Hailong wrote his name on the inscription, maybe there is another mystery in it", thinking of this, Xiao Ge may be able to finish this matter and figure it out, but I didn't expect Zhao Delin to come to the hall, just now I heard the things in the hall outside, I was very shocked by the news, I just wanted to hear it more clearly, and said:" I can prove this matter, if Lord Guo really knows the burial place of the treasure of the Dao, why bother the people in the rivers and lakes, the treasure can be found directly in the court."

Liu Yuxiang said: "It makes sense", Xiao Ge arched his hand and said: "I have one thing I want to trouble the emperor and the queen mother now", the emperor said: "Please speak."

Xiao Ge said: "I want to go to Xiao Hailong's house, I don't know if it's okay", the emperor thought for a while, and said: "Yes, since General Xiao Hailong left, Xiao Mansion has been kept, if you want to find out, I can send someone to take you over to see", Zhao Delin bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen can take Xiao Ge to take a look, I want to see the breath of General Xiao Hailong, and I want to learn more from his heroic deeds."

The emperor said happily: "Okay, then bother Zhao Qing's family", Zhao Delin bowed his head and replied: "Yes, Weichen will say goodbye first", turned around and left the hall, Xiao Ge arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the grass people will say goodbye first", and the emperor said: "Okay".

After Xiao Ge left, Guo Zhengfan bowed and said: "Thank you Queen Mother", the Queen Mother said: "Guo Qing's family is serious, you are the pillar of my Ming Dynasty, how can you let such a thing be entangled, the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty is still counting on you."

Guo Zhengfan said: "How can Weichen He De be appreciated by the Queen Mother, but Xiao Ge already knows his life experience, will he find out to the end."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Don't worry."

The horses had already left the palace gate, and at this time it was already light, and three horses and three people galloped away, and Xiao Ge said, "Where should we go?"

Zhao Delin said: "The southeast direction, the Xiao Mansion is in the southeast direction", three horses, two hours have come to the Xiao Mansion, the door is sealed, and there are guards guarding the Xiao Mansion, decades have passed, and there is still no change here.

Xiao Ge immediately dismounted, staring at Xiao Mansion with both eyes, although he has experienced thirty years of wind and rain, but the majesty of Xiao Mansion still exists, Xiao Ge has in his mind the Xiao Mansion in the mouth of the people, solemn, standing alone.

The guard at the door saw Xiao Ge approaching this side, stopped and said, "Stand still", Xiao Ge reacted that he had come to the door of Xiao Mansion and said, "I want to go in."

The guard said: "This is the Xiao Mansion, no idle people are allowed to enter", Zhao Delin hurriedly dismounted and came to the door of the Xiao Mansion, and walked quickly to Xiao Ge's side.
