Chapter 455 Fanning the flames (2)
When Sun Tu's sudden return was immediately surprised by the three people in the hall. Of course, what was shocked was Xi Fengyun and Helian Jinshi, and only Xi Fengchang was happy.
Xifeng Chang was so happy that he hurriedly got up and greeted him. After looking at Sun Tu for a while, he asked with concern: "Qianli, you are back, have you been deliberately targeted?"
Seeing that he cared about himself sincerely, Sun Tu felt warm and ashamed, but soon he smiled again and said, "Thank you for your concern. I have not suffered any hardship. On the contrary, Ning Ling was quite respectful to me. And if he hadn't appeared in time, I'd probably died outside Chengtian Temple and wouldn't have come back." After saying the next few words, his eyes had already fallen to the other two, especially Helian Jinshi, who obviously should be the lobbyist of the prince, and his attitude was not concealed at all.
This made Xi Fengyun and Helian Jinshi feel tight. The former immediately coughed dryly and said, "Sun Qianli, you are back at the right time. The eighth brother is asking you for something." As he said that, he winked at his younger brother. Xi Fengchang remembered what happened just now, and looked at Sun Tu and said, "You said you were attacked outside Chengtian Temple, do you know who the other party is? But Xi Fengyao sent?"
Sun Tu nodded slightly: "According to their first explanation, it was Xifeng Yao who ordered them to kill me, but..." Speaking of this, he glanced at the other two with some fun: "Later, after Ning Ling's interrogation, they admitted that all this was actually the order of the prince, in order to seize me, Xifeng, and the birthday gift of the emperor."
While speaking, Sun Tu took the package he had always carried with him and held it over with his hands: "Young Master, this is the Buddhist treasure I asked for from Master Jiesang today."
Hearing his statement, Helian Jinshi's face was so gloomy that it could drip into water. He immediately snorted: "Sun Qianli, do you know that this is a serious crime? Prince Xiande, how could he do such a thing? Brother Xifeng, is your Xifeng clan disciplined his subordinates like this?"
Xifeng Yun's face also darkened, and then rebuked, "Sun Qianli, don't talk nonsense! You can't tell the truth about this matter!" Even Xifeng Chang and the other two were a little angry and couldn't help but say, "Qianli, is there any misunderstanding in public? How could the prince do such a thing..."
Facing the questioning of the three people, Sun Tu was not afraid and just sneered: "I really have the final say about the truth, but it is not yours. It should be determined by witnesses and evidence! Now all the people who killed me in the street have been taken. The blood on the package and the wounds on my body are evidence. Isn't it enough to prove it?" As he said that, he even took off his clothes and turned around and showed the wound on his back at them: "This is the wounded by them with bows and arrows, and the previous ones are also the wounds left when fighting against those who were fighting..."
"Even so, you can't insist that it was the prince's instructions to them! This is just something that Xifeng Yao did because of his jealousy, and it has nothing to do with the prince!" Helian Jinshi immediately retorted. After pausing for a moment, he thought of something: "Brother Xifeng, you have promised me!"
Xi Fengyun nodded and said solemnly: "Sun Qianli, in my opinion, this matter has nothing to do with the prince. Don't be used by others. At that time, not only you, but also my entire Xi Feng clan will be implicated! So in my opinion, this matter will end here. You will leave the capital immediately and return to Shunjun City!" He actually decided to send Sun Tu away immediately.
Sun Tu didn't expect the other party to be so decisive. He frowned and then looked at Xi Feng Chang: "Young Master..." Although the latter looked entangled, he nodded after hesitating for a while and said, "Qianli, I also feel that it is not easy to get involved in this matter too much. After all, the prince is my crown prince of Xia Kingdom. If he offended too much, he will only bring us endless trouble!"
When Xifeng often said this, with the hidden movements in Xifeng Yun's hand, the guards guarding in front of the hall had already walked in quickly and had a vague momentum of double-teaming against Sun Tu. Obviously, once he refused to obey orders, these people would attack him.
When Sun Tu saw this movement, he felt even more nervous. Although he was confident that the few people in front of him could not keep him at all, it would be hard to say if he really started. Maybe these people would doubt their motives. If the king and minister of Xia were both suspicious, then his plan to take the opportunity to disrupt Xingqing Mansion would be completely failed.
Such a risk is not enough, so I have to start with Xi Feng Chang! After quickly making up my mind, Sun Tu looked at Xi Feng Chang: "Young Master, I have a few words that I want to say to you alone, I don't know..."
"No, time is tight, you have to leave the capital immediately!" Xi Feng Yun didn't want any more changes, so he immediately ordered very toughly. As he said, he waved his hand and signaled his subordinates to come forward to take Sun Tu.
Sun Tu was really annoyed now and shouted immediately: "Xi Fengyun, I am not your subordinate, but my son's person. What do you mean? Young Master, don't fall into the trap of some people!"
Xifeng was very dissatisfied with this. He looked at a few people who wanted to do it and shouted loudly, "Get out. You can't be too presumptuous here! Brother, since Qianli has something to say to me, so what if he asks him to say it?" With his few loud shouts, several other subordinates who had no movement before also quickly entered the hall, blocking the way for the people brought by Xifeng Yun. The situation in the hall suddenly became more and more nervous.
"You..." Xi Feng Yun was furious, but it was not easy to get angry for a moment, so he could only hum, "If you have anything to say, just say it here, will I harm my eighth brother?"
Sun Tu was silent for a moment and replied: "The eldest son is naturally trusting, but there are people from the Xifeng clan here, so..."
Xi Feng Yun had a headache, and finally said to Helian Jin Shi, who looked ugly, "Brother Helian, please go to the side hall for a while, I will give you a satisfactory answer." Now it seems that he can only meet Sun Tu's request first and see what he said to him and the two of them.
Helian Jinshi looked at him for a while, and finally could only snort, get up and walk out: "I hope Brother Xifeng can be trusted, and I also hope you can know that the prince's identity is precious, but you cannot easily offend your Xifeng family."
As Helian Jin Shi withdrew, his subordinates went out to close the door and guarded outside. Only Sun Tu, Xifeng Yun and Xifeng Chang were left in the hall. At this time, Xifeng Yun said angrily: "You can express your thoughts now, right? But I have to say things in front. My Xifeng family will not be enemies of the prince just because of you!"
"Young Master, I can see that you were already moved by that person before you came here, right?" Sun Tu looked calm, but the words he said made Xi Feng Chang's expression tighten. Xi Feng Yun was stunned and hummed again, which gave him a promise.
Sun Tu smiled: "Then let me guess what reason he used to convince the eldest son. Just because the prince's status is precious? This is probably not enough. Although I have not been in Xia Kingdom for half a year, I also know that the prince's status in the court is not very high, at least it cannot threaten the Xifeng family. So you should have other concerns, such as Xifeng Yao is under the control of the prince at this time?"
Xi Fengchang responded in cooperation at this time: "You are right. Xi Feng Yaozhen has fallen into the hands of the prince early in the morning. He is the eldest brother who threatens this!"
"It's not only Xifeng Yao, but also the entire Xifeng family. Do you know what it means to me Xifeng family once the crime is really fulfilled?" Xifeng Yun said with a dark face: "The person who conspires with the prince to send someone to rob and kill the birthday gift. This crime alone is enough for countless people in my Xifeng family to fall to the ground, and it will also give the emperor the opportunity to reduce my Xifeng family's rights. But if the matter is just Xifeng's robbery of his brother's things because of a momentary aura, it will be just a dispute within my Xifeng family, and even the emperor will not be able to deal with us at will." This is the key to Helian Jinshi's convincing him, and it is also what he attaches most importance to.
After hearing this, Sun Tu only thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Young Master, you have thought things too simple. Now that things have been reported to the emperor, even if it is really a dispute within the Xifeng clan, isn't it considered disrespectful to the emperor? Could it be that the emperor cannot interfere in the Xifeng clan's internal affairs? I'm afraid that this will give the emperor a chance? After all, who dares to say that Xifeng Yao has no deeper intention to make this decision? And then, without the prince's commander's serious crime, the Xifeng clan's situation will only become more and more dangerous!"
This analysis made the Feng Yun brothers stunned. The incident happened suddenly, and the two of them had never thought about it deeply. Now that they thought about it carefully, there is really such a possibility.
Seeing this, Sun Tu continued, "In addition, you only talk about the prince, have you forgotten Mo Gorgehe? If we stop at this time, we will not offend the prince anymore, but we will also offend him. Now the power of the prince in the court is probably not as powerful as the Ning Ling Zhongshu Ling?"
"Brother..." Xi Feng Chang's face changed at this time, and he looked at his brother with some suspicion. It was obvious that Sun Tu was moved. Even Xi Feng Yun was in deep thought at this moment. He had to admit that he was indeed a little lacking in consideration before and threw the threat from Mogohe directly behind his mind. But now, if he stopped Sun Tu from testifying, he might offend Mogohe to death. At that time, the situation of the Xi Feng family in the capital would be worrying.
