Chapter 442
In the restaurant, Prince Xia was standing in front of the window with a smile and looking down at the dispute between the Xifeng brothers in front of him. His eyes were complicated to sweep over Queen Yue who was standing behind him without making a move. His eyes finally fell on the extremely majestic white horse, and he also praised softly: "It's a good horse!"
Although Xifeng Yao did not express his plan just now, the prince could confirm that this guy was robbing the obviously useful BMW under his own banner. So after pondering for a moment, he turned around and ordered: "Let Xifeng Yao send the horse here later." Since he borrowed his name, the benefits are naturally his own.
Xi Fengyao didn't know that his intention had been seen through by the prince. Now he was threatening Xi Fengchang like a tiger's power: "Eighth brother, the prince is the future king of my Xia Kingdom. Do you want to make enemies with him and harm the entire Xi Feng clan?"
Xi Fengchang's breathing at this time also became extremely heavy, and he stared at the other party: "Third Brother, you have to know that this is the main birthday gift for my Xi Feng family to celebrate the emperor's holy birthday. Once you pay it out, the weight of the birthday gift will be greatly reduced, and the emperor will definitely blame it! How can I explain to my father and his tribe members at that time?"
That's your business, and it's the result I hope to see! Xifeng Yao was thinking about this in his heart, but he said with a stern word: "It's not too late for us brothers to discuss this issue after we go back. Anyway, the horse will be given to the emperor in the end. Is it a difference whether you send it to the prince or the prince pays tribute? Hand over the horse quickly, otherwise it will anger the prince, and the crime will be quite serious!"
Xi Fengchang was a little confused about how to deal with this kind of coercion, and subconsciously turned around and wanted to ask Sun Tu for help. Sun Tu had helped him through the difficulties several times before, which naturally made him feel a little dependent on this subordinate. When encountering a problem again, the first thing he thought of was to see what countermeasures he had.
But at this time, Sun Tu was about to disappoint him, and he just frowned and stood there without much reaction. Then, Xi Feng Chang's eyes swept to the King of Yue who was also standing there. His heart suddenly moved and he became calculating: "Third Brother, I will not give it to you. In fact, half of this horse is considered Uncle King of Yue. If the prince really wants it, let him discuss it with Uncle King of Yue!"
In a hurry, he actually pushed King Yue out to resist the pressure from the prince. Because in Feng Chang's opinion, King Yue is also a prince, and even if he is not as noble as the prince, it is not much worse. At least the prince may have a rift with King Yue for this little thing.
But he didn't know that the prince would appear here today, and he was willing to let Xi Feng Yao take advantage of his own power, because he wanted to suppress the King of Yue. So it would be fine if he didn't pull the King of Yue out. This made Xi Feng Yao feel more and more excited. He immediately urged the horse to take two steps forward, bowed to the King of Yue, and then said loudly: "Uncle King of Yue, my eighth brother said that there is half of your horse. I wonder if you are willing to give up the prince?"
King Yue looked at Xi Feng Chang with a wry smile. Did this kid really treat himself as a one-on-one existence? Not to mention that this is Xingqing Mansion, even in Dingzhou City, he was not so arrogant that he dared to compete with the prince! But it was a bit inappropriate to give in at this time, so he could only say vaguely: "It's just a horse, there's no need to have a dispute over it." This is a disguised attempt to give in. After all, this horse really has nothing to do with him, so why bother to wade into this muddy water and become enemies with the prince head-on? At least he does not have the ability to fight with the prince now.
Xifeng Chang felt a chill in his heart, and then he realized that he had the intention of shooting himself in the foot. This time, when the King of Yue nodded, he couldn't insist on not handing over the horse. But he was unwilling to accept this. This was not only a matter of momentum, but also a matter of his future!
At this time, the Xifeng clan members who came with him were still watching. Once he really handed over the horse, the prestige he had finally obtained in Shunjun City would be greatly reduced. When he returned to the mansion and asked Xifeng Yao and his elder brother Xifeng Yun to win over and suppress him, I am afraid that he will have no authority among the clan members in the future.
It can be said that this BMW is not only a horse, but also a matter of his face and confidence.
Moreover, after he really handed over, once he could not give out any considerable birthday gifts on the emperor's birthday, the Xifeng family would inevitably be looked down upon in the court, and even caused the emperor's dissatisfaction. In that case, as the envoy to celebrate the birthday of this time, he would inevitably be blamed, and the outcome would be difficult to imagine after returning.
But... at this time, he did not face the pressure and refused to fight with the prince at the risk of offending the prince, which really made Xi Fengchang completely fall into a dilemma.
Xi Feng Yao was not in a hurry to force him to express his opinion, just waited so leisurely and smiled. Because he knew that his eighth brother dared not reject the prince, so the longer he delayed, the greater his face would be!
Sun Tu, who was sent by Xifengchang, had already seen everything at this time, and he felt that it was easier and more crude than the brothers who were Dangxiang. If this were placed on the Song people, he would have been despised by everyone for such blatant difficulties. Not only Xifengchang, but Xifengyao and the prince would have lost fruit.
In fact, Sun Tu had a long time ago in this matter - that is, Xi Fengchang told Xi Feng Yao very bluntly that since he was a mission, he had no chance of handing over the horse. If they wanted to seize the horse, they would take their own life first. As long as they were tough enough, they would not dare to come forward. This not only saved the horse, but also won a good reputation who was not afraid of power. However, I don’t know if this reputation is useful in Xia State.
In addition, he could also directly pull the emperor out as a shield and say bluntly that this horse was sent to the emperor by Xifeng instead of the crown prince. In his mind, the emperor is far more important than the crown prince! This can also block the other party's mouth.
Anyway, as long as he has a strong attitude, he is not afraid of the other party not making concessions. But Xifeng Chang really has no experience in this area, so he fell into this seemingly dilemma. Of course, Sun Tu couldn't help him calm down the trouble so easily, because he had already seen the clue that this was not a snatching BMW, it was clearly a secret fight between two pairs of brothers.
With this opportunity, how could Sun Tu, who was already afraid that the world would be in chaos, quickly calm down? Since you want to make trouble, let me make the matter bigger and let everyone break their face!
After making up his mind, Sun Tu moved. He shook the reins, controlled his horse and quickly came to the side of the brother Xifeng who was facing each other. He looked at Xifeng Yao with a faint look: "Young Master, is he going to steal the horse?"
"Bold! Is there room for your words for my brother?" Xi Feng Yao immediately scolded annoyed, and the subordinates behind him also came forward subconsciously, as if they were going to encircle Sun Tu. However, the people behind Xi Feng Chang had hesitated at this moment. After all, Xi Feng Yao had already established prestige in the clan, and this time he came under the banner of the prince, so he really didn't dare to offend him.
Xifeng's face became increasingly ugly, but also a little relieved. At least Sun Qianli was looking at him, the person who was truly loyal to him! However, Sun Tu, even when facing seven or eight good men, did not see any panic. He just glanced at the white horse and said, "This horse was bought by my young master who spent a lot of effort and money. It was the one who offered the emperor on behalf of my Xifeng. How could he hand it over so easily?"
Then, without waiting for the others to refute, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Young Master, handing over the horse is the biggest insult to you and the Xifeng clan! The villain can't bear to see you be humiliated, so he can only risk his life to offend him!" Before he finished speaking, the sword on his waist was pulled out by him-!
"Bold, you want to assassinate..." The guard behind Xi Feng Yao was shocked when he saw it. He quickly pulled the reins of his master and retreated. Xi Feng Yao also looked unbelievable. What was the fateful existence of his eighth brother's subordinates?
In fact, it was not just him. The subordinates of the Xifeng clan and the King of Yue in the rear, including the King of Yue himself, were also surprised and wanted to shout and ask him to stop, but it was obviously too late, because Sun Tu's knife had quickly slashed out: "It would be better to break the jade than to make the whole thing!"
With this silence, Sun Tu's sword had hit the target - but it was not Xi Feng Yao or any guard beside him who was facing a great enemy, but the white horse that had been standing there, somewhat confused!
This top-class horse, captured by Huangfu Duan, has caused many changes since he arrived in Nanjing, Liao. Sun Tu once took the defense map back. It was because of its existence that Sun Tu and Xifengchang had today's relationship. Coupled with the dispute in the capital of Xia Kingdom today - but no one expected that anyone would attack such a completely innocent BMW!
So, in a burst of exclamation, Sun Tu's knife directly chopped the majestic horse to the ground. The horse fell in his pool of blood, struggling and screaming, opening his confused and innocent eyes widened. He didn't know why he would have suffered such a disaster, but his death could no longer be changed!
Under the shocked and inexplicable eyes of everyone, Sun Tu calmly put his knife in his mouth and sneered, "Third Young Master, don't you want this horse? Just take it now!"
"You..." Xi Feng Yao's face turned pale, but when Sun Tu exuded a strong murderous intent, he didn't dare to scold him anymore, and even his body was still trembling gently. He was really scared.
Xi Feng Chang also came back to his senses from the shock just now. Although his face was not good-looking, his expression was much stronger than before. He had already understood that this approach could indeed protect his face and prestige, and completely lost his third brother's face. Of course, he no longer cared about these things at this time.
