After hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Xu Nantian was shocked.
"how do you know?"
At this moment, Xu Nantian looked at Zhang Yifeng with shock in his eyes. He was a little curious. He had never told Zhang Yifeng this, so how did Zhang Yifeng know this secret?
Seeing the shocked and questioning look on Xu Nantian's face, Zhang Yifeng chuckled lightly and said, "I guessed it."
After he came to Tianzhou, he spent some time with Xu Nantian, and he knew Xu Nantian somewhat.
People like Xu Nantian would never help King Dali do dirty things. Even if the original crusade against Qingyi Marquis was due to King Dali's order, Zhang Yifeng knew that Xu Nantian might not go all out.
He found that when Xu Nantian mentioned Qingyi Hou just now, his eyes were full of admiration and regret. Under such circumstances, how could he use all his strength to deal with Qingyi Hou?
At this time, Qiu Lin's voice suddenly came: "My nephew, you are really smart. You are right. The successful escape of Qingyi Hou has a lot to do with Brother Xu, because the one who blocked Qingyi Hou's way was
It’s Brother Xu.”
Having said this, Qiulin paused and continued: "Although Qingyi Hou is strong, he was seriously injured at the time. With Brother Xu's strength, he can naturally be defeated, but at the critical moment, Brother Xu
But I let him go."
Hearing this, Zhang Yifeng had a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Is it possible that the king's removal of his adoptive father's title had something to do with this incident?"
Qiu Lin nodded with a wry smile and said: "After returning from Yong'an City, His Majesty saw that Brother Xu and the others had not captured Qingyi Hou. He was furious. At the same time, he also became suspicious, because according to his calculations, Qingyi Hou was not
Might have escaped."
"Later, His Majesty summoned every prince who participated in that battle separately. From that time on, His Majesty's attitude towards Brother Xu immediately changed."
"Although Brother Xu was still one of the three princes at that time, His Majesty no longer allowed Brother Xu to participate in many important matters."
"Qiu Hou, do you mean that someone tipped off the king?"
Qiulin nodded and said: "Only this reason can explain the reason why Your Majesty suddenly alienated Brother Xu."
"The informant is Wanyan Xiarong?"
Qiu Lin nodded and said: "Because of the sworn relationship between the three of us, although Wanyan Xiarong was suspected, Brother Xu and I did not doubt him, but now it seems that he has long been suspicious of the three princes.
I have been coveting the position for a long time, and the person who made the whistleblower was probably him."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yifeng's expression became colder, and his murderous intention towards Wanyan Xia Rong became even more intense.
"But, what does this have to do with the king's abnormality today?"
Zhang Yifeng pondered for a moment, and then asked the doubts in his heart.
Although he learned a lot of secrets from his previous exchanges with Qiu Lin and Xu Nantian, the doubt in his heart has never been eliminated.
After hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Qiu Lin said: "The reason why His Majesty behaved abnormally is probably related to the Qingyi Marquis. After the Qingyi Marquis escaped, he said that he would come back in the future."
"Although there has been no news about the Marquis of Qingyi in these years, His Majesty has never let go of this matter in his heart. After all, if the Marquis of Qingyi appears again in the Dali Kingdom, it will pose a huge threat to His Majesty's dominance."
Zhang Yifeng suddenly realized.
"The King of Dali is so abnormal. Could it be that the Marquis of Qingyi has returned?" After Zhang Yifeng finished speaking, a ray of light shot out of his eyes.
If it was really Marquis Qingyi who came back, he would like to see what kind of person Qingyi Marquis is.
Qiu Lin shook his head and said: "Even if His Majesty learns of this kind of news, he will not let us know it. I only speculated like this when I saw you mention His Majesty's abnormality."
Zhang Yifeng nodded secretly. Indeed, King Dali had no time to cover up such a scandal, so how could he tell others.
"Father, Lord Qiu, it's getting late. You should go to bed early. We'll discuss it tomorrow if you have anything to do."
Zhang Yifeng spoke again, but by the time he finished speaking, he had already left the room.
The amount of information Qiu Lin and Xu Nantian told him was too huge, and he had to digest it carefully.
After Zhang Yifeng left, Xu Nantian looked at Qiu Lin, and saw a deep doubt in his eyes.
"Brother Qiu, tell me, what is the relationship between Miss Hongling and Feng'er?"
Qiu Lin was stunned for a moment, and said with a strange expression: "Brother Xu, don't you know that Miss Hongling calls her nephew master, so they must have a master-servant relationship."
Xu Nantian shook his head, took a deep breath, and said: "I'm not saying that, I mean, Miss Hongling is too mysterious. Not only is she powerful, but she is also elusive. I feel like she is very mysterious.
"
After hearing Xu Nantian's words, Qiu Lin was silent for a long time, and then he took a long breath and said, "When you put it like that, she seems to be quite mysterious."
But then, Qiu Lin changed the subject and said: "Brother Xu, don't worry about this. Haven't you discovered yet? Miss Hongling listens to her nephew very much. No matter how mysterious she is, she can't harm her."
A good nephew, isn't he?"
After listening to Qiu Lin's words, the worry in Xu Nantian's eyebrows disappeared.
"That's right. Okay, let's go to bed early. I'm going back to the room too."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then went to rest.
At the same time, Yangxin Palace.
Yangxin Hall is a large hall not far from Zijin Hall. This is also where King Dali sleeps.
Normally, the king would have gone to bed at this point.
But today, the king was not sleepy at all. He only saw a blood-stained letter in his hand, looking worried.
Opposite him, a figure stood with a bow. It was Wang Yanzhao who had fought against Hong Ling before. At this moment, Wang Yanzhao's face also looked a little ugly.
"Yan Zhao, Yu Wenxin and the others, is there no news yet?"
After a short silence, King Dali interrupted the tranquility with a voice.
Wang Yanzhao cupped his hands and said with a worried look on his face: "Your Majesty, ever since Lord Yuwen sent someone to deliver this letter, we have completely lost his message."
After hearing Wang Yanzhao's words, King Dali's expression became more solemn.
"Tell me, will something happen to Yu Wenxin?"
King Dali seemed to be asking Wang Yanzhao, and he also seemed to be asking himself.
Wang Yanzhao's expression suddenly changed, he shook his head and said: "Impossible, Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Lord Yuwen has a strong cultivation level, and it is not easy for Marquis Qingyi to kill him."
