Ye Li's heart skipped a beat, "You're thinking of …"
Mo Xiuyao gave a sinister smile, "Isn't it said that the one who obtains the Imperial Jade Seal will obtain the world? Then let's see who will be able to obtain the Imperial Jade Seal and who will be able to obtain the world. " Ye Li lowered her brows and pondered for a moment, "If the Imperial Jade Seal were to leak out from the Prince Ding Mansion, it wouldn't be a good thing. I've got it … "Thinking of the bright yellow silk that she had brought out from the Imperial Mausoleum, Ye Li suddenly smiled. Looking at Mo Xiuyao, she said, "I had forgotten that I had brought out a treasure map from the Imperial Mausoleum."
The birth of the Ding Kingdom's little heir had spread throughout the world in an extremely flamboyant manner in a short period of time. Furthermore, Prince Ding had decided to hold a one-month-old banquet for the little heir, inviting all the influential and famous people of various countries. Adding on to the news that the Imperial Jade Seal and the previous dynasty's treasure had appeared in the Northwest, countless people had rushed to the Northwest of Da Chu State.
Chu Capital Xu Residence
Xu Qingyan looked at the letter in his hand with a surprised and happy expression. Even the hand that was holding the letter couldn't help but tremble. Xu Qingbai sat at the side and looked at Xu Hongyan's uncontrollable excitement. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Second Uncle, did something happen on second brother's side?" Xu Qingyan handed over the letter and said, "Li 'er gave birth to a boy …" After training outside for a long time, Xu Qingbai was obviously much more mature than before. Hearing this news, he couldn't help but have a hint of joy on his lips. In the end, Xu Hongyan carefully read the letter that he handed over and smiled, "This is great. Grandfather will definitely be very happy when he hears this news." Xu Hongyan nodded repeatedly. Last year, after Li'er had met with danger and disappeared, his father's health had become extremely poor. It wasn't easy for him to get the news that Li'er was safe and sound. Now that Li'er had safely given birth to a son, his father would definitely be very happy when he heard this good news that he had become a great grandfather.
The housekeeper standing at the door looked at the old master and fourth young master who had lost their composure and reminded, "Old master, fourth young master. The person who came to send you off is still waiting outside the door. " Although he was also very happy that Miss Li 'er gave birth to a child, he still had to have the proper etiquette. He couldn't let the messenger wait there for nothing.
Xu Hongyan came back to his senses and nodded, "Reward … No, quickly invite the person who delivered the letter in. This Old Master still has some things to ask him."
The head steward responded and hurriedly went out to invite him. Not long after, a young man in ordinary clothes walked in. He cupped his hands and smiled at Xu Hongyan, "Lord Xu, Fourth Young Master, long time no see." Xu Hongyan was taken aback. Seeing the young man raise his head and reveal his handsome face under his slightly messy hair, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Young Master Feng San?" The young man was none other than Feng Zhiyao, who was supposed to be in the northwest. Without waiting for Xu Hongyan to invite him to take a seat, Feng Zhiyao walked to a chair at the side and slumped down. He let out a long sigh and complained, "In order to return before the news was sent back to the capital, this young master ran three fine horses to death along the way. I'm so tired … "He had set out the day after the little heir was born and had only used three days to rush back to the capital. Compared to now, the news of the little heir's birth was still on the way.
Xu Hongyan was stunned and looked at Feng Zhiyao in a daze. It was Xu Qingbai who asked, "Young Master Feng San, other than the matter of Cousin Li 'er and little nephew, is there something else?" Feng Zhiyao jerked the corner of his mouth and forced out a smile, but it was more like a bitter smile. "If there's nothing else, how could the Prince be willing to let me return to the capital to be carefree at this time?" Although, returning to the capital might not be as easy as staying in the northwest. Xu Hongyan also came back to his senses. Hearing Feng Zhiyao's words, he hurriedly asked, "Did something happen?" Feng Zhiyao didn't have time to ask for water. He grabbed a pot of herbal tea from the side and poured it into his mouth. Then he looked at Xu Hongyan and said, "The Prince and wangfei hope that Official Xu and Fourth Young Master will leave the capital with me and head to the northwest."
Xu Hongyan's expression froze. He and Xu Qingbai were the only members of the Xu clan left in the capital. In other words, they were hostages of the court. Once they left without the Emperor's permission, then the Xu family and the imperial family would be completely at odds. Seeing Xu Hongyan's expression, Feng Zhiyao knew that Xu Hongyan was in a difficult position. He said in a heavy voice, "I won't hide it from Official Xu. The Prince Ding Mansion and the court's relationship is irreversible. If Official Xu and Fourth Young Master remain in the capital, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous for you two. " Xu Hongyan frowned and said, "It's fine if we leave. There's only our family in the capital. But the Xu clan has been in Yunzhou for a hundred years. If the Emperor wants to find trouble, where can't he find it? " Feng Zhiyao took out another letter and handed it over, saying, "This was written by the Prince and wangfei. I have personally delivered the same letter to Mister Qingyun in Yunzhou. But I have no time to stay in Yunzhou for long. Mister Qingyun and Mister Hongyu must have made a decision by now. "
Xu Hongyu took the letter in confusion and opened it. He frowned and read it. Soon, his expression changed greatly. His usually calm face was filled with anger. After a long time, he said angrily, "Absurd! There's such a thing … the Emperor actually …! It's really … "Slapping the letter on the table, Xu Hongyan raised his head and stared at Feng Zhiyao, saying," Third Young Master Feng, is the letter true? "Feng Zhiyao smiled bitterly and said," Does Official Xu think this is something that can be casually made up? " Xu Hongyan was speechless. Everything in the letter was shocking. Which one of them could be casually made up? But this kind of matter was too hard to believe. Xu Qingbai looked at his clearly angry second uncle. He quietly stood and walked to the table to pick up the letter on the table. He didn't read it. Even though Xu Qingbai felt that he was mentally prepared, he was still frightened. The people of the Imperial Family … were they really this crazy? At the same time, the young Xu Qingbai was extremely disappointed and angry at the person on the dragon throne and the court.
He looked down, folded the letter, and gently put it back on the table. Xu Qingbai laughed in a low voice and said, "Second Uncle … for this … is it worth it?" His father had the talent to help the world, but could not become an official. He could only stay in Lishan Academy to teach students. His second uncle was also a true talent, but for more than a decade, he was forced to stay in the position of imperial censor and watch the intrigue in the court. The five brothers could only suppress their talents and temperaments. Yet, how long would this suppression last? Their generation or until the Xu family was destroyed? No wonder his eldest brother was not willing to become an official in court. He probably already saw that this kind of life would never end. Xu Hongyan gritted his teeth and did not speak. But his tightly clenched hands made it clear that he also found it difficult to calm down. The Prince Ding Mansion and the Imperial Family were of the same bloodline. For generations, they worked hard for the Da Chu State and still ended up like this. There was no need to talk about the Xu family. In the Da Chu State, the Xu family had no other choice but to quietly die.
Feng Zhiyao sat silently in the chair and looked at the two people in front of him. The Xu family was not the only one bitterly disappointed by this matter. Even someone like Feng Zhiyao couldn't help but be filled with coldness and anger.
Xu Hongyan put away the letter and raised his head to look at Feng Zhiyao. "Presumably, Third Young Master Feng has other matters to attend to in the capital. Please allow me to consider for a few days before giving you a reply." Feng Zhiyao did indeed have many matters to attend to. He stood and nodded. "Of course. After Official Xu has made a decision, you only need to have someone send a message to me. I still need to stay in the capital for a few more days. This matter is not urgent. I will take my leave now. "Seeing Feng Zhiyao walk out, Xu Hongyan frowned and said," Third Young Master Feng. "Feng Zhiyao turned his head." Official Xu has other orders? "
