The expression on Tang Jiucheng's face was extremely complicated, Hu Xiaotian forced himself to use condensation as an arrow, and his trick of pressing the bottom of the box still couldn't put him to death, Hu Xiaotian's purpose was to tell him the fact that even if he tried his best, Hu Xiaotian could still escape from his men.
Tang Jiucheng didn't continue to make a move, Hu Xiaotian slowly returned the knife into the sheath, and said unhurriedly: "The martial arts of my predecessors have opened my eyes, no one wants to have an enemy like you."
His words were very tactful, although he took the initiative to show goodwill, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, if it wasn't for the competition just now, his words would definitely be considered by Tang Jiucheng to take the initiative to show weakness, but now Tang Jiucheng no longer thinks so after fully realizing his strength.
Once you treat the other person as an opponent, then you will not despise the other person's respect for you.
Tang Jiucheng said in a low voice: "Whoever has an enemy like you must have a great headache. ” Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "It is better to have one more friend in this world than one more enemy." ” Tang Jiucheng said: "I'll invite you to drink" The invitation was very sudden, and even after Tang Jiucheng became the master of the Falling Sakura Palace, there were few such invitations, especially for a junior.
Hu Xiaotian didn't hesitate at all, nodded and said, "Okay" Walking into this dilapidated tavern, Hu Xiaotian knew that Tang Jiucheng had already prepared, the dishes had been served, and the wine had been warmed.
There were only two of them in the tavern, and the hunchbacked shopkeeper left the room in amusement to go outside to tease the birds.
Hu Xiaotian took the initiative to pick up the wine jug and filled the wine glass in front of Tang Jiucheng.
Tang Jiucheng said: "I have only one condition. ” Hu Xiaotian picked up the wine glass and touched it with him.
Tang Jiucheng was not in a hurry to drink this glass of wine: "Let Zou Yong go." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "The road that Ling Gongzi wants to take is not Yangguan Avenue. ” Tang Jiucheng drank the glass of wine in front of him: "Everyone has their own choice, the child is older, I can't control it." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Even if you want to manage it, you can't manage it for a lifetime." ” Tang Jiucheng sighed, looked at Hu Xiaotian and filled the wine glass in front of him: "He admires you very much, saying that you are a wise and brave person." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "He's not bad."
It's just that there are some things that I have just talked to him about, and I hope that if I can't be friends with him, I won't become enemies. ” Tang Jiucheng's eyes looked a little confused: "I'm not interested in politics. ” Hu Xiaotian said: "If the predecessors were too distracting, they would not have today's martial arts achievements." ” The corners of Tang Jiucheng's lips flashed with a wry smile: "I didn't believe it in the past, but after I saw you, I believed it."
Talent really matters.
In his opinion, Hu Xiaotian is undoubtedly one of those who has made extraordinary achievements in politics and martial arts, and everything Hu Xiaotian has in front of him is exactly what his son has always wanted to work towards.
Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "My predecessors don't know how much bitterness and bitterness I have tasted behind my back. ” Tang Jiucheng said: "I can't persuade him to change his mind, I can only support him." ” Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "I give a suggestion to my seniors, although Ling Gongzi is temporary, there are endless hidden dangers under the surface scenery, and it is always not practical to build his fate and ambition on the shoulders of others." ” Tang Jiucheng's eyes lit up.
"Although Dayong's national strength is very strong, the court is not very peaceful, Xue Daohong's actions in Bohai this time have offended King Yan and the eldest princess, and it is difficult to say who will kill the deer in the future."
Tang Jiucheng said: "You really should say these things to him." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Even if I am willing to say it."
He may not be able to listen. ” Xue Daohong came to the Garden of Mercy for the first time since he ascended the throne, and the Empress Dowager Jiang summoned him, and he decided to come over in person after careful consideration, and when he arrived at the Garden of Mercy, he found that the Empress Dowager Jiang not only called herself, but also called Xue Shengjing, the king of Yan.
Xue Daohong had already guessed the purpose of the Empress Dowager Jiang letting him come, and he couldn't help but regret a little in his heart, if he knew the purpose of the Empress Dowager calling him over.
She said that she wouldn't come over anymore, could it be that the matter of Bohai Country had reached her ears.
Xue Shengjing was forced to persuade Empress Dowager Jiang to reconcile with her Although Xue Shengjing is Xue Daohong's own uncle, after all, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and he said respectfully: "Your Majesty is here."
Xue Daohong snorted, and reluctantly said: "Uncle Huang is also here" and then said to Empress Dowager Jiang: "Is grandma's body okay?"
Empress Dowager Jiang smiled and said, "Okay, very good."
There's nothing special about it today, I just miss you, so I asked people to invite you over, but I didn't expect you to come, after all, your current identity is different.
The king of a country has too many official affairs to deal with, how can he take care of me, an old woman. ” Xue Daohong heard her displeasure and said with a smile: "Grandma, don't say that, no matter how important things are, they are not as important as your old man's family, aren't I here?"
Xue Shengjing complimented on the side: "Your Majesty has been very filial since he was a child, Queen Mother, you can't let everyone be idle and idle like Erchen." ” Empress Dowager Jiang laughed: "For the old disrespect, I am embarrassed to scold you in front of Daohong's mourning family, look at yourself, how can you still be an uncle, Daohong is busy with political affairs all day long, since ascending the throne, he has lost a lot of weight, not only do you not help him, but you are more idle than in the past, you let the mourning family say what is good about you" Xue Shengjing took the opportunity to say: "Erchen is ashamed, but Erchen is not fond of political affairs by nature, and when the imperial brother was alive, he said that I was not diligent and had no ambitions, but I was actually a waste of wood." ” Empress Dowager Jiang said: "Yes, you are a waste of firewood" Xue Daohong listened to their mother and son singing and harmonizing, but his heart was unmoved, Xue Shengjing must have been panicked because of the things in Bohai Kingdom, and this time he took the initiative to let the Empress Dowager Jiang move, it seemed that he was already afraid, Xue Daohong said: "Grandma, in fact, the imperial uncle is not as useless as you say, the imperial uncle is just useless in the right place, and the imperial uncle's mind is actually inferior to me." ” Xue Shengjing scolded in his heart, stinky boy, you have only been on the throne for a few days, if it weren't for my full support, you might not have been able to ascend the throne smoothly, I didn't expect that you would turn to me as soon as you sat on the throne, and you turned your face faster than your old man.
Empress Dowager Jiang said with a smile: "The emperor is not wrong in what he said, Shengjing's mind is also smart, but it's a pity that it is not used in the right place, there are so many princes and grandsons in Dayong, who doesn't want to be in the heart of the country, but you only know how to collect rare treasures all day long, if you know your personality, know that you just like these things, it is for us Dayong to accumulate wealth, if you don't understand those people who don't understand you, don't you think that you take the opportunity to accumulate wealth and fill your pockets" Xue Shengjing pretended to be frightened and said: "Don't say that, the queen mother, the child has never been so greedy." ” Empress Dowager Jiang said: "What kind of person are you, the mourning family still doesn't know when your imperial brother is alive, didn't you just say that all your wealth is Dayong's, when your imperial brother wants to use it, when can you take it." ” Xue Shengjing said: "The child thinks the same way now, and he never dares to forget his original intention" When he spoke, his eyes quietly looked at Xue Daohong.
As if he hadn't heard it, Xue Daohong looked away, as if everything that was happening in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The mourning family called you over today for another purpose, recently the mourning family has heard a lot of rumors, Shengjing, although our own family knows your personality, but outsiders are not clear, many people say that you use public weapons for private purposes, damage the public and private, over the years have collected countless treasures, rich and rival the country." ” Xue Shengjing smiled bitterly: "Queen Mother, the child has never thought of taking it for himself. ” "In that case, you can hand over all the properties in your name to the emperor."
Xue Shengjing was stunned in his heart, the queen mother didn't say it in advance when she called herself over, in fact, now the situation in the Bohai Kingdom has begun to reverse, everything is developing in its favor, and it seems that she has the capital to argue with Xue Daohong, the old queen mother actually let herself hand over the property under her name at this time, what kind of medicine is sold in her gourd, whether she is on her side or on Xue Daohong's side, she openly puts herself together, and now, if she doesn't pay, doesn't it mean that she is disloyal, it means that she has other intentions, But after handing it over, Xue Daohong may not be able to let go of the idea of dealing with himself.
Empress Dowager Jiang put on a face and said: "Why don't you want to?"
Xue Shengjing hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, the sons are willing, the sons are willing, I will go back and let people count the treasury and hand over all the property wealth to the emperor for control." ” Empress Dowager Jiang smiled and said, "You know the general situation."
Xue Daohong said: "No need, those things are not the same as those placed here by the imperial uncle, as long as the imperial uncle can treat me like my father, I am absolutely at ease with the imperial uncle." ” Xue Shengjing said respectfully: "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust" Empress Dowager Jiang said: "According to the opinion of the mourning family, it is better to do it according to the meaning of the scenery, the plaything is demoralized, if you are not obsessed with those jewelry and antiques all day long, you will not become like this, Your Majesty, you will follow him once." ” Xue Shengjing scolded secretly in his heart, are you my mother, are you helping me, you are clearly cheating me Xue Daohong nodded slowly and said, "Okay, since Uncle Huang is bent on proving his innocence, then I have no choice but to agree." ” Xue Shengjing hated to knock down Xue Daohong's front teeth with one punch, your uncle, this is to pit my old book, he was in a bad mood, and at this time he heard Empress Dowager Jiang say: "Shengjing, there is nothing for you here for the time being, you go back and deal with this matter as soon as possible." ” After Xue Shengjing left, Xue Daohong said: "Grandma, in fact, you don't have to do this, and I don't want to make it difficult for others." “ Empress Dowager Jiang sighed softly and said: "Daohong, although the mourning family is old, they are not confused, and there are some things that the mourning family can see clearly." ” Xue Daohong said: "Grandma, you might as well say something in your heart."
