Chapter 789 [Bing the candle] (1)
Although Quan Dean had never heard the conversation between Qiqi and Hu Xiaotian, he still saw the clues from Qiqi's subtle changes. It was still early, Qiqi had ordered the idle palace servants to leave, and the rest were all her confidants. He took an opportunity to say to Qiqi: "What are the arrangements for the little master tonight?"
Qiqi looked listless and said lazily: "You are really getting more and more involved."
Quan Dean smiled and said, "Maybe the slave is old and people are starting to become verbose. I hope the little master will not dislike the old slave."
Qiqi looked at him and sighed softly, "I'm old, I'm indeed old." She was talking about Quan De'an on the surface, but she felt a sense of sadness in her heart for no reason. She always felt that the person who was getting older was herself. It's not right. I was under twenty years old, so how could I feel like this?
Quan Dean thought Qiqi was just talking about him, and he smiled bitterly: "It seems that the little master dislikes me, and the old slave wants to leave, but if the old slave leaves, he is worried that no one will really protect the little master."
Qiqi's nose was sore, and almost shed tears. The sourness spread to her heart and evolved into a severe pain of a needle and a bayonet. However, she was not defeated by the pain. She clenched her fists and pursed her seductive cherry lips stubbornly. Her back was subconsciously straightened, and her eyes looked coldly at Quan De'an: "Are you mocking me for not having anyone close to me?"
Quan Dean didn't expect Qiqi to have mistaken his meaning, and said in a trepidated manner: "Little Master, this is not what the slave means."
Qiqi reached out and grabbed his arm so that he would not kneel down. The cold voice suddenly became much gentler again: "I know you didn't mean that, forget it, I'm in a bad mood..."
Quan De'an said with concern: "What do you want to eat at night? I'll make arrangements now."
Qiqi shook his head and said, "I don't want to eat anything."
At this time, the news from the eunuch came from outside the door, but Shi Xuedong from Shangshenjian specially sent dinner. Quan De'an understood as soon as he heard that Shi Xuedong's intention was that the drunkard was not drinking. Who in the world knew his relationship with Hu Xiaotian? Today, Qiqi went to Daxiangguo Temple to meet Hu Xiaotian and reported it to him. This time he came here must be related to Hu Xiaotian. Maybe Hu Xiaotian had already come with him.
Quan Dean said deliberately: "Isn't it a bit unruly to do this?"
Qiqi said: "I have the final say in the palace rules. Let him come in. Eunuch Quan, what should I do and how to arrange it? I don't need to say anything?"
Quan De'an sighed in his heart, clearly that Hu Xiaotian and Qiqi had made an appointment to meet here at night during the day. This guy was really bold in doing things. He dared to sneak into Kangdu alone. Seeing that Qiqi's intention was not hostile to him, he maintained it very well. Although the two had the possibility of cooperation due to the change of the situation, Qiqi's performance was not simply selfless. Could it be that she was still in love with Hu Xiaotian? What should we do if the two had a rekindled relationship? Although all the civil and military officials have already admitted Qiqi's de facto rule, Quan De'an always felt that Hong Beimo was a potential huge threat. He never knew what method Qiqi used to persuade Hong Beimo to support her. Will Hu Xiaotian's appearance cause a crack in the relationship between Qiqi and Hong Beimo?
Seeing Qiqi's firm gaze, Quan De'an knew that it was useless to say more. She was strong in nature and would definitely not change as long as it was decided by her. She could only sigh in her heart and turn around and go out for arrangements.
Shi Xuedong came in with a little eunuch. The eunuch was carrying two food boxes in his hand. He was thin and small, with his eyes rumbling. Qiqi vaguely guessed that this guy was played by Hu Xiaotian. She was too lazy to talk nonsense to Shi Xuedong and said softly: "Stay what should be left, leave what should be left."
Shi Xuedong smiled all over his face. Of course, he knew that he was the one he should have left. He bowed to Qiqi and prayed secretly in his heart, hoping that his sworn brother could tame Qiqi, the fierce horse. If their old love rekindled, then his life in the palace would be easy. Otherwise, I am afraid that the whole family of the Shi family would not be able to save their lives. Thinking of his advice to Hu Xiaotian before coming here, he couldn't help but be proud. Damn, no matter what Princess Yongyang, she would just push it straightforwardly, and make a big deal out of her life, so that you can understand the taste of the marrow and make you understand the taste. From a girl to a woman, you will naturally understand the three and four virtues and keep your wife's way. Now this guy can only imagine occasionally that he will never have the chance to touch a woman in this life.
After the door was closed, Qiqi looked at the thin eunuch up and down. She had also seen Hu Xiaotian's disguise skills before, but this guy must have known his skills and actually changed his appearance and body shape.
The thin eunuch made a crackling sound at the joints of the bones and his face began to stretch. Qiqi watched the guy recover from his true body in front of him. Because Hu Xiaotian's sudden enlargement body burst into pieces, Qiqi snorted coldly and said, "Seeing you like this, I have no appetite."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "I specially asked the imperial chef to prepare some appetizers for you. If you don't eat them, wouldn't it be a pity for me?" He opened the food box, took out the wine and food inside, and placed them on the table.
Qiqi looked at his every move and remembered the days they spent together in the palace in the past. Everything seemed like yesterday. Suddenly, Hu Xiaotian felt close but out of reach in her heart. She got up and walked over, silently helping Hu Xiaotian put the bowls and chopsticks together.
Although it was just a subtle move, I waited to show Hu Xiaotian that he did not show the arrogant attitude of a princess in front of him.
Hu Xiaotian made an invitation move, Qiqi sat facing him, staring at Hu Xiaotian's eyes with clear and deep eyes: "I didn't expect you and I still have a chance to drink together."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Who can tell the things in this world clearly? Just like when I first met you, I would never have thought that you would become a graceful beauty like today."
Qiqi said: "Pleasing to women has always been your strength, and I really don't deserve it for the woman who likes you."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Do you also include this?"
Qiqi said: "You'd better be more restrained when speaking in front of me. Don't forget where you are? Just give me a command..."
"How is it?" Hu Xiaotian not only felt afraid, but instead leaned forward, his scorching eyes as if sparks were about to burst out at any time.
Qiqi sneered, and actually knew in his heart that since this guy dared to come, he had made complete preparations. He and Hong Beimo jointly set up so many ambushes, and he didn't get out of it. He really had no choice but to do anything to him. He couldn't bear it or not, and even she couldn't give a complete answer.
Hu Xiaotian picked up the wine glass: "Please!"
Qiqi Qianqian picked up the glass of wine in front of her with her bare hands, but she didn't immediately put her lips on her lips and said softly: "How can I know if there is poison in this wine?"
Hu Xiaotian sighed with a heartbroken expression: "I feel heartbroken when you say this. Can't people trust more?" Before he finished speaking, Qiqi had already drank it all, and the glass was dripping with wine. He clearly showed his eyes that he was demonstrating to Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian also drank that glass of wine.
Qiqi took the initiative to take the wine pot, filled him with the wine, and said carelessly: "You came to me not just to drink and chat, right?" She knew better than anyone else about the predicament Hu Xiaotian was facing now. If it weren't for the time when the fire broke out, how could he come to him?
Hu Xiaotian said: "I really can't deceive you anything. I came here for both business and private matters. I wonder where we should start?"
Qiqi said: "It seems that I have nothing private to talk about with you."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I once saw a blue skull in the Dragon Spirit Realm. I didn't know what it was at that time, but later I realized that there was a huge secret in that skull."
Qiqi smiled calmly. In her opinion, Hu Xiaotian should have received some news, but he could not have known everything.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I have seen one in Tianxiang Country."
Qiqi's eyes lit up.
Hu Xiaotiandao: "Later I learned that there were some information and words left in the blue skull that ordinary people could not interpret, which only people of certain specific bloodlines could understand."
Qiqi said, "It seems that you know a lot." She took the initiative to touch the wine glass with Hu Xiaotian and said, "Let me tell me, where is the other skull now?"
"Tianxiangguo, in Hu Buwei's hands!"
Qiqi nodded.
Hu Xiaotian continued: "He used his affair with Long Xuanjiao to find the skull from the palace, and asked Long Xuanjiao to take the skull away from Dakang by the opportunity of getting married."
Qiqi said: "Your father is really hidden!"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "He is not my father. Since my mother passed away, this person and I have been ruthless. He has already started to manage the world. He was originally planning to take over Xichuan and Tianxiang Kingdom and integrate various forces in the south, but failed because of the palace change planned by Ji Feihua. He has a deep cunning and even I have been blinded."
Qiqi said: "According to your opinion, was the change in Xichuan planned by him?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said, "Jinling Xu is the greatest support behind him. He has never stopped operating in Tianxiang Country over the years. Tianxiang Country is ruled by Long Xuanjiao on the surface, but in fact, the authority of Tianxiang Country has long been controlled by Hu Buwei. However, this person has never left any trace in his work. Not only has he deceived Long Xuanjiao, but he has also deceived the people of the world." Hu Xiaotian had to admire Hu Buwei's scheming and ingenious plot. If he had not been in business for many years, how could he integrate all parties in the southern region at the right time?
