Chapter 865 [Gathering of the Storm] (I)


Since she was engaged to Hu Xiaotian, Xiao Nizi has been much more low-key, and in the eyes of the outside world, she is also a lot lazy about the government affairs.

Hu Xiaotian didn't believe that this girl could really let go completely, and she would be a good wife and mother from now on Walking into Chuxiu Palace, seeing Shi Xuedong with two little eunuchs just coming out of it, Shi Xuedong saw Hu Xiaotian and hurriedly came over to say hello, and said in a low voice: "Her Royal Highness the princess just asked us to send some seasonal fresh fruits, I think it is to receive you, the prince." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled slightly.

Shi Xuedong saw that there was no one around, and lowered his voice again: "Make a decision immediately, the opportunity must not be lost, and the loss will not come again, my brother must take her down as soon as possible" Although this guy was cut off, he still did not lose his romantic nature in his words.

Hu Xiaotian smiled: "Big brother is too worried, and he is still satisfied with his recent errands."

Shi Xuedong nodded again and again: "Satisfied, satisfied, the princess also takes special care of me, and it all depends on the face of the prince." ” Hu Xiaotian patted him on the shoulder and said, "What is there to be polite about your own brother?"

Shi Xuedong felt even more glorious when he heard him say this, he was also a very discerning person after mixing in the palace for so long, so he didn't dare to delay Hu Xiaotian's time longer, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Hu Xiaotian came to Chuxiu Palace and saw Qiqi drawing on the case, her hair was shawl, she was bare, she was bare, her eyebrows were raised, she stopped writing from time to time, and fell into deep thought, because she was so engrossed that she didn't even notice that Hu Xiaotian came to her side.

Hu Xiaotian didn't immediately alarm her, he looked down at the top of the painting, but saw that the pattern on it was extremely strange, twisting and turning, like a maze, seeing that his scalp was a little numb, he took a breath and looked into the distance.

Qiqi sensed that he was beside him because of his breathing, pursed his lips, put the sheep on the pen stand, and said softly: "These minions were all bought by you, and they didn't even say hello to me when they came in." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled: "That's because they know that I have no ill intentions towards you." ” Seventy-seven beautiful eyes circulated: "That's not necessarily" Hu Xiaotian stretched out his arm to hook her slender waist, and wanted to take it into his arms, but Qiqi reached out against his chest: "I called someone."

Hu Xiaotian said: "It's useless for you to call now, even if they hear it, they won't come in, and no one dares to spoil our good deeds."

Qiqi sighed and said: "Hu Xiaotian, Hu Xiaotian, you are really the demon star of my life, I really don't know what I owe you in my last life" There was a faint melancholy in his beautiful eyes, even if it was not obvious, he was still grasped by Hu Xiaotian.

Hu Xiaotian saw that she was in a bad mood, let go of her, and said softly: "Tell me, who made my baby princess angry, I will help you get angry" Qiqi said: "Who else but you" His gaze returned to the painting, and his brows furrowed again.

Hu Xiaotian said: "This painting has a bit of an abstract flavor, and I really can't understand this bit of artistic skills." ” Of course, Qiqi didn't know anything abstract, and said softly: "In the past two days, I have always had some strange dreams, and some strange patterns will appear in my dreams over and over again, I have drawn them, some of them remember, but some of them can't remember." ” "If you can't think of it, you don't need to think about it."

Hu Xiaotian began to worry about Qiqi's state, she was obviously a little immersed in it and couldn't extricate herself, if this situation continued, it would not do her any good.

Qiqi closed his eyes vigorously, trying his best to expel the chaotic thoughts from his mind, and only after a while did he say: "On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, will Liu Yuzhang come as promised?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "Definitely, he shouldn't miss this opportunity" Qiqi opened his eyes, looked at Hu Xiaotian, and suddenly took the initiative to stretch his arms and hug him, Hu Xiaotian hugged her delicate body tightly, and felt her tremble slightly in his arms.

Comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, I am by your side." ” Qiqi's pretty face was attached to Hu Xiaotian's shoulder, and he whispered: "Promise me, never deceive me" Hu Xiaotian smiled: "Silly girl, apart from beauty, what else are you worthy of me to deceive" Qiqi raised his head from his arms, his eyes were already teary, Hu Xiaotian had never seen her show such a vulnerable side, he stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from her face, and smiled: "Let people think I'm bullying you when they see it." ” Qiqi also laughed embarrassedly, stepped aside, picked up Luo Pa to wipe the tears off his face, calmed down a lot, and said softly: "Recently, it has been rumored that there is a Miao treasure under Yongdu, did you get this matter?"

Hu Xiaotian smiled: "This has nothing to do with me, in short, the more chaos in Dayong, the better it will be for us." ” Qiqi said: "Hei Hu sent envoys to negotiate peace, this time it is still a good face, you should be old acquaintances." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "I have received this news, the Black Hu delegation will arrive in Kangdu tomorrow, and I will hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow night to entertain Yan Liexin and his entourage, and wash the dust for him." ” Qiqi said: "But I don't know what they are doing when they come over this time" Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "Peace talks only, Hei Hu Xinjun is on the throne, it should be stabilized, Dayong's previous power disputes have made the world see the disadvantages of civil strife, since Xue Shengkang's death, Dayong has been in a slump, and it has not been alleviated so far, although Xue Shengjing has taken control of Dayong's authority as he wished, but Dayong's illness is difficult to return, the people are not happy, and the people have risen up in order to survive, and now Dayong is already on fire everywhere. ” Qiqi said: "It seems that we should take action to take advantage of his illness and ask for his life" Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Having said that, but now is not the best time to deal with Dayong, first, we have a contract with them, and soon after we sign it, we take the initiative to turn our backs, and we will lose morality in front of the world, and secondly, if we take advantage of the weakness, Heihu will not be willing to be monopolized by us, and will definitely send troops and horses to seize territory from the north.

Then Dayong's situation will only get worse and worse, and when the time is ripe, we will complete the layout and take Dayong in one fell swoop, wouldn't it be easy. ” Qiqi said: "Or you are insidious enough" Hu Xiaotian smiled, only when she was praising herself with this sentence, and continued: "The most important thing in front of us is to take Xichuan as soon as possible, the land around Xichuan Xizhou and Xiezhou is not only fertile, but also surrounded by mountains, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Li Tianheng supported the army and stood on his own, and cut Xichuan out, and now Li Tianheng is dead, Xichuan should have returned to Dakang, but was occupied by the Tianxiang Kingdom and forcibly occupied the past, although I took advantage of the earthquake to seize some territory, However, it is still not comparable to the land actually occupied by Tianxiang Kingdom, the longer it is delayed, the more stable Tianxiang Kingdom's control over this land will be, not to mention that they still have the Hongmu River in the south, and Tianxiang Kingdom will connect the south together, if they do not break the connection between each other, once a solid defense line is formed in the future, it will be difficult to break it to the sky. ” Qiqi nodded and said, "But with our current national strength, I'm afraid we can't support such a protracted war." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "The war does not have to be protracted, and it does not necessarily have to be fought on all fronts, the biggest problem in Xichuan is the people's hearts, most of the people have always regarded themselves as people of great health, and when Tianxiang Kingdom controlled Xichuan, they slaughtered the old Li family, and the Xichuan army was unstable, not to tell you, I have never stopped my activities in Xichuan over the years, and even their army has cultivated a team with extraordinary strength. ” Qiqi didn't show too much surprise when she heard the news, nor did she show any excitement, she didn't know why, for a period of time, it seems that she is not as enthusiastic about power as she used to be, can feelings really change a person said lazily: "You just have to let go of these things, I don't bother to care." ” Hu Xiaotian also noticed her change, and reached out to touch her forehead: "Are you okay?"

Qiqi shook his head and whispered: "Life is too peaceful, but it is not as novel and exciting as in the past."

Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "Is it possible that you and I have to fight to the death, fight and break the blood, and only then can life be colorful, and life has a different meaning."

Qiqi sighed and said, "I don't know why, I suddenly lost interest in everything, and I felt that I couldn't lift my spirits for anything. ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Or I'll stay with you tonight" Qiqiqiao blushed and said, "What do you want to do, we haven't held a big wedding ceremony yet, what kind of system do you stay in?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "I care about you, I never mean to take advantage of you, when to get married, I don't wait for you to say a word." ” Qiqi said: "You go back first, I need to think about it, and after the seventh day of the seventh month of July passes, let's set the date as soon as possible."

Hu Xiaotian nodded, always feeling that Qiqi's current behavior was a little abnormal, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

Wanyan Liexin came as scheduled, as Hu Xiaotian expected, this time he came for peace, and it was impossible to ignore Dakang, a big country in the Central Plains.

Hu Xiaotian held a banquet in the Zhenhai Palace, and ceremoniously entertained Yan Liexin's delegation and his party, as the saying goes, there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies in this world, when Wan Yan Liexin fled from Kangdu in a hurry, he didn't think that he would return to Dakang soon, although both times he claimed to have come with the purpose of peace, but this time the sincerity was more sufficient.

Full of wine and food, Hu Xiaotian invited Wan Yan Liexin to come to the garden to drink tea, and during the banquet, Wan Yan Liexin had already explained the purpose of this visit, and the conversation between them at this time was more of a personal relationship.

Both of them were extremely intelligent people, and neither of them mentioned the fact that Gangbado's gang had stolen the skull in the first place.
