As soon as Xiao Mubai finished speaking, Du Hanfei's lifeless eyes suddenly opened, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he stared at Xiao Mubai.
After all, Du Hanfei was no longer a young boy. Although he stared at Xiao Mubai, he sneered disdainfully: "What kind of secrets can I have with Concubine Li?"
Xiao Mubai looked at him, with an even more disdainful look on his face: "The group of people who assassinated His Royal Highness Seventh Prince, one wave were private soldiers you raised, and the other wave were people from the world, and they were not brought in by Concubine Li. of."
Du Hanfei's expression changed slightly, but he was still noticed by Xiao Mubai, who looked at him tightly, seemingly unintentionally. A trace of sneer curled up at the corner of his lips: "Du Hanfei, now you are in trouble. , but she is still the most beloved concubine in the palace, and you have become a prisoner, but she is still well-dressed and well-fed. Are you really willing to do that? "
Du Hanfei spat in his direction, and Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai deftly dodged to both sides at the same time.
Xia Chu said "tsk" while dodging back: "After all, you were a top scholar before, why are you so vulgar?"
Xiao Mubai echoed in cooperation: "If you don't tell me, I have forgotten that Du Hanfei was a young scholar with good looks, rich knowledge, and talent... "
Xia Chu glanced at the miserable Du Hanfei, his face full of disbelief: "Is this true or false?"
Xiao Mubai looked certain: "That's not true, otherwise would Grandpa Huang have to marry Princess Yirou to him?"
Xia Chu suddenly nodded: "The Number One Scholar, the Prince Consort, is indeed a proud young man."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then looked at Du Hanfei and shook their heads in unison.
"Who cares about being that consort!" Du Hanfei's face became even more resentful when he heard Xiao Mubai talking about Yirou.
"But you did it anyway for the sake of power." Xiao Mubai's tone was full of ridicule.
Du Hanfei remained silent. He had indeed become the consort and surrendered to authority. The only person he had failed as the consort was Xiu Xiu. Xiu Xiu was his regret in this life.
Xiao Mubai looked at his touched face and said bewitchingly: "Since you seek kindness and get kindness, but now you have lost everything because of Concubine Li's harm, are you still willing to defend her?"
Du Hanfei suddenly laughed after hearing his words. What he was most afraid of and worried about was that Xiao Mubai and the others knew that Li Fei planned to rescue his son, but now it seemed that they didn't know.
Du Hanfei looked at him bitterly: "Xiao Mubai, don't forget who caused me to kill everyone in my family, and now you still want me to drag Concubine Lali into trouble?"
Xiao Mubai's face turned cold and hard, and Du Hanfei's attitude suddenly changed as he recalled what he had just said.
Xia Chu also discovered this, but after thinking about it, he felt that there were no flaws in what Xiao Mubai said, but the situation could not be deadlocked here, so he said to Du Hanfei: "Even Princess Yirou hanged herself yesterday. Now that you are in Ci'an Palace, what else can you expect from Concubine Li to help you?"
Du Hanfei's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly rushed over, grabbing the iron railing and asking a little uncontrollably: "Yirou hanged herself?"
Xia Chu thought she had touched the softness in his heart, so she added more force: "Yes, she hanged herself. She only left a last note and wanted to be buried with you."
Du Hanfei suddenly burst out laughing, laughing so happily that his breath was a little unsteady: "She deserves it, she died well, she died so well!"
Xia Chu was startled and turned to look at Xiao Mubai, but Xiao Mubai had been stern since just now. He looked at Du Hanfei who was almost crazy and suddenly asked softly: "Do you think your son can escape? "
Du Hanfei instantly became quiet. He took a few steps back until his body was pressed against the iron railing behind him, and then he stabilized his figure. After a moment of silence, he laughed at himself: "They are all on death row now, how can they escape?"
Xiao Mubai stood up, dusted off the dust on his hands, and said nonchalantly, "It seems that Concubine Li is going to stage a show of Li Daitao for you."
Du Hanfei's face turned ferocious. He shook his head and denied desperately: "No, no! You are talking nonsense..."
Xiao Mubai was too lazy to argue with him anymore. He already had the answer in his heart. He walked up to Xia Chu and said warmly: "Let's go."
Xia Chu'ah? After making a sound, Xiao Mubai grabbed his wrist and walked towards the door.
Han Sa saw them coming from a distance and opened the door. Hu Yingmao was guarding the door farther away and kept watching what was going on here. Seeing that they finally came out, he hurriedly greeted them.
"Master Hu, no one is allowed to visit Du Hanfei in the future." Xiao Mubai looked at Hu Yingmao with a cold and solemn expression: "I am talking about no one."
Hu Yingmao responded quickly: "I understand."
Xiao Mubai took two steps forward, leaned close to his lowered ear, and said in a soft but commanding voice: "There are Du Kun and Du Ming, please keep an eye on me."
Hu Yingmao's expression changed: "Yes, I will replace him with a group of more capable people to keep strict supervision."
Xiao Mubai patted him on the shoulder: "Whether Mr. Hu can do the job depends on how well you do your job this time."
Hu Yingmao saluted solemnly: "I will do it personally this time."
Xiao Mubai nodded with satisfaction and said nothing more. Although Xia Chu was full of questions, he remained patient. It was not until he left Dali Temple and Xiao Mubai was sending him back home that Xia Chu asked him He said: "Is Concubine Li really going to save his two sons?"
Xiao Mubai was very sure: "Looking at Du Hanfei's reaction, he should be inseparable."
Xia Chu looked at his determined look and was very curious: "How did you guess it?"
"I dug around Du Hanfei and found out that Du Hanfei had an engagement before he married Yirou. Although he eventually broke the engagement for power, his affection for the woman was genuine and he secretly sent someone to When she arrived in the capital, she was unexpectedly killed by Princess Yirou on the way, and only received a corpse.
Therefore, Du Hanfei has no feelings for Princess Yirou, only resentment. You told him the news of Princess Yirou's death today, which further confirms the truth of this news. Since he has no feelings for Princess Yirou, his only thought is his son. .
At this point, Empress Li Fei could only make use of this only thought, so the only thing she could agree to was to rescue his two sons. It was impossible to ask the emperor for forgiveness, so only Li Daitao was left alone. I just made a bold guess to test his reaction, and it seems that this is indeed the case. "
Xia Chu didn't expect that Xiao Mubai would dare to think about Li Daitao, nor did he expect that Li Fei actually planned to do this. This trip was really not in vain. He raised a smile and said happily: " There really is a big surprise in this Dali Temple."
