Chapter 115: The meeting of the wind and clouds, who is Wang Kou
Somehow, Zhu Yan's heart calmed down suddenly, and he sneered and said to himself: "It's time to say it? Haha, can you come to demonstrate to me?"
"Let them come in!" Zhu Yan said loudly, shook his sleeves and sat down.
After a while, Hu Yihu and two old men walked in. Hu Yihu looked grim, while the two old men looked peaceful, as if they were asleep.
Prince Yong Zhu Fei and Prince Rong Zhu Yu, they are Zhu Yan's second uncle and third uncle respectively. They have a very high status in the Tianhuo Empire and are also two people that Zhu Yan must face.
"Why are the two emperors and Aiqing Hu suddenly come to find me together? Is there something big happening? Please sit down quickly, don't be tired of your body, the two emperors." Zhu Yan's emotions had calmed down, and there was always a faint smile on his face.
Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu nodded slightly and sat down, while Hu Yihu stood there without any movement.
Zhu Yan stared at Hu Yihu in surprise and asked with a smile: "Why don't Hu Aiqing sit?"
Hu Yihu smiled indifferently and said, "Your Majesty asked the two old princes to sit, but I don't dare to sit."
Zhu Yan smiled and said, "Hu Aiqing is really good at joking. With your status in our Tianhuo Empire, if you are allowed to stand, it is really my fault. I also have to rely on Hu Aiqing's loyal ministers to protect the country. I should understand."
Zhu Yan's words obviously had something in his words. Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu both closed their eyes slightly, as if they didn't hear Zhu Yan's words. Hu Yihu didn't say much and sat down. The situation in the imperial study room had clearly told him that Zhu Yan had been furious because of Ju Chunyang and the others' words.
Seeing that he was silent, Zhu Yan did not continue to play. He leaned against the animal leather chair and looked at Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu. He was very puzzled. Why did these two old men who usually ignored everything come to find him with Hu Yihu? Moreover, Hu Yihu deliberately chose this time. His most direct idea was that Hu Yihu was provoking him!
Thinking of this, he felt so angry that he couldn't vent his teeth, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Two emperor uncles, just say anything if you have anything to do." Zhu Yan said with a very humble smile.
"Haha, let Old Man Hu say that he is just looking for His Majesty and bring us two old men to join in the fun." Zhu Feiman said carelessly. He is about the same age as Hu Yihu, and is even a few years older than Hu Yihu. But he is not a warrior, so he looks much older.
Zhu Yu also nodded and agreed with Zhu Fei's words. As a result, Zhu Yan felt even more confused. He didn't know when Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu had such an intimate relationship with Hu Yihu.
Zhu Yan nodded and said, "Since the two emperor uncles said that, then Hu Aiqing said it."
Hu Yihu stood up, walked to Zhu Yan, and said directly: "Your Majesty, how many real loyal ministers do you think do you have?"
Hu Yihu was so sharp that he was hit by the nail on the head. Zhu Yan's face immediately became gloomy. He sneered and said, "Hu Aiqing, your words are a bit strange. Although I am in the 95th century, I know that loyalty and flattery is not easy to distinguish. Can you know who is loyal and who is flattery? Haha, then please give me some advice."
Zhu Yan's emotions were unstoppable, and it was not easy to dissipate that anger.
Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu just leaned on the chair without saying a word. As they said, they seemed to be just here to join in the fun.
Hu Yihu ignored the resentment in Zhu Yan's tone, smiled slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, what you are right is that loyalty is not so easy to identify. Sometimes, it is not necessarily a loyal minister, but vice versa. Your Majesty, do you think the old minister is a loyal minister?"
Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu raised their heads slightly, although their eyes were not opened, they were both attracted by Hu Yihu's words.
Zhu Yan frowned slightly, feeling very angry. He really didn't know what Hu Yihu was playing. At such a storm, he suddenly came to him and asked such a sensitive question. What was his intention?
In the past, although he was a little suspicious of Hu Yihu, he still did not classify him as a slander. However, since he learned that Hu Mo was so hiding so deeply, he had great suspicion about Hu Yihu. Now he has regarded Hu Yihu as the most slanderer.
"Haha, Hu Aiqing is joking. The Hu family is a tiger general and three generations of loyal ministers. How could you be a slander? I also rely on you to defend the territory for me and kill the enemy and control the outside world. Who said you are a slander? I will directly kill his head!" Zhu Yan slapped the chair and shook the best chair out of the crack.
Zhu Yan was full of anger. After venting this, he got better, but how could he hide this anger like a slander and scolding Hu Yihu's eyes? He smiled without saying a word and looked at Zhu Yan very calmly.
After Zhu Yan's anger calmed down a little, Hu Yihu's tone changed and he asked with a smile: "So, Your Majesty, don't you care about the crime of the old minister concealing the truth? Ju Chunyang and the other three should tell His Majesty everything, and they have added a lot of vinegar."
"You!" Zhu Yan suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Hu Yihu. He didn't expect Hu Yihu to say such words in front of him so directly. What's the difference between this and making a decision in person?
Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu opened their eyes at the same time, looking at Zhu Yan who showed their fierce appearance, Zhu Fei said in a plain tone: "Your Majesty, don't get angry first. Old Man Hu has told us a lot of things. The reason we came here is to solve this problem."
Zhu Yan's face calmed down a little, but his anger remained the same. He glared at Hu Yihu and said viciously: "Hu Yihu, say whatever you want to say! Listen!"
Hu Yihu's expression remained unchanged and said lightly: "Your Majesty, I know that you must not trust me from the bottom of my heart now. I think our Hu family has ulterior motives and ill-conspiracy. However, I want to tell Your Majesty that the old minister does not mean to go against Your Majesty. You should know how much power the old minister has in the Tianhuo Empire. If the old minister really wants to rebel, do you need to wait until today? Your Majesty is superior to the heavens and men, and you should be able to understand what the old minister means."
"Hmph! It means you have no intention of rebellion? Hu Yihu, my father valued you so much back then and regarded you as a brother, but you have concealed the facts for so long. What do you want me to think? Do I still think that all you did is for my good? Joke! It's extremely ridiculous!" Zhu Yan shouted without hesitation, his entire aura rising to a terrifying level.
Zhu Yan's white hair was blown by a strong wind, but his face did not change at all.
"Your Majesty, I tell you the truth. In the year when my son Hu Meng disappeared, I was ready to burn all the jades and stones. At least I killed all the suspects and buried my son with me!" Hu Yihu's breath suddenly became heavy, and his whole person's breath changed a lot.
Zhu Yan's face changed and he immediately took two steps back. From Hu Yihu, he felt a threat of death.
Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu did not come forward. They watched coldly, as if they had seen through all this.
"But, the old minister's heart is not that narrow! My Hu family's loyal and strong starts with oneself, but cannot end with oneself! As long as I, Hu Yihu, stay alive for one day, I must defend the royal family and our Tianhuo Empire! So, your Majesty, you can rest assured, and there is no need to doubt it!" Hu Yihu's voice became louder and louder, and the house was shaken slightly.
Zhu Yan was stunned and suddenly became nervous, especially when Hu Yihu talked about Hu Meng, his expression was obviously not right, as if a knife had hit his heart.
All of this was in Hu Yihu's eyes. Hu Yihu calmed down a little and continued, "As for why my grandson has changed so much, I can only say, I don't know. I only discovered this fact in recent months. If I had to explain it, it was very simple. He did this just to protect himself. If he was too tough, his Majesty should be able to understand."
Hu Yihu talked with Zhu Yan this time completely openly. Except for not mentioning Hu Mo's master, he said everything else he could say. Hu Yihu also said the same in front of Zhu Fei and Zhu Yu, and expressed his most serious oath that he would not attack the royal family.
Although the two princes seemed to live in chaos, they all had a clear mind, so they naturally understood what Hu Yihu meant. Therefore, they supported Hu Yihu very much.
"What's wrong with Hu Aiqing coming to find me today? Since everything has been said, let's just say it." Zhu Yan suppressed the uneasy and nervous mood and tried to make his voice normal, but the slight tremor was captured by Hu Yihu. To be honest, Zhu Yan's guilt made him feel very conflicted. If he had followed his previous personality, he would have taken revenge and killed everyone.
After thinking for a moment, he still suppressed this idea. This time he came here for Hu Mo's plan, and some things could only be solved later.
He looked at Zhu Yan and said directly without any concealment: "Your Majesty, the old minister has received information. The Situ family of Fire City and the Xu family colluded with the enemy country to rebel. The old minister knows that your master definitely does not believe this news, so the old minister just wants to bring the news. As for whether you believe it or not, the old minister cannot control it."
