The beginning of Tianlong is second to Murong Fu

Chapter 170 Loyalty?
on the official road.

Roadside teahouse.

Xiao Jun and his party stopped. They had already traveled tens of miles and planned to take a rest after seeing the teahouse.

In front of the tea table, Xiao Jun and Chu Fei sat facing each other.

Originally, Chu Fei was somewhat resistant to sitting at the same table with Xiao Jun, but he finally sat down under Xiao Jun's persistent request, but he still followed the etiquette of respect and inferiority, appearing a little cautious.

Those who came out of the palace seemed to have been engraved in their bones with caution about respect and etiquette.

"Your Majesty really wants to see me?"

Xiao Jun took a sip of tea, looked at Chu Fei, and asked indifferently.

After hearing Xiao Jun's question, Chu Fei couldn't help but smiled wryly.

"Sir, why bother to ask what you know?"

Chu Fei shook his head and said slowly.

"Falsely preaching the imperial decree is a capital offense!"

Xiao Jun glanced at Chu Fei and said calmly.

Chu Fei froze for a moment, then smiled wryly again.

"No way, the Second Highness suddenly invited Mr. to the border town for a talk. I was worried that something bad would happen, so I had no choice but to make a bad move, but this was also the Prince's intention."

Chu Fei said seriously.

Xiao Jun smiled after hearing Chu Fei's answer.In fact, he already knew that Chu Fei was lying to deceive Zhao Yi, but he didn't expose it.

And he also knew that Zhao Yi's sudden enthusiasm must have something in his heart, even if Chu Fei didn't find an excuse to smooth things over for him, he wouldn't go.

"It seems that you are already the prince's man."

Xiao Jun looked at Chu Fei and said with a smile.

"A good bird chooses a tree to live in. Compared with the Second Highness, it would be better for the country of the Song Dynasty to be governed by someone who sincerely cares about the people. I just chose a relatively correct path."

Chu Fei said slowly, although he didn't answer directly, the meaning of the words was already very clear.

But Xiao Jun couldn't help sighing after hearing Chu Fei's words, who will know what will happen in the future?What is the difference between the ownership of the imperial power and the struggle in the rivers and lakes?
A king is like a tiger, how many people who can be emperors don't have blood on their hands?

"You choose the road yourself. I don't comment, let alone give you advice. But if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to Tianmen to find me at any time. I will keep you safe."

Xiao Jun thought for a while and said lightly.

In fact, he and Chu Fei did not have a deep friendship, they only got along for a while in the case of the kidnapping of the prince, but he admired Chu Fei's conduct in the world, and he risked his beheading at Yanmen Pass to make things right for him, it was worth it. He owes Chu Fei a favor.

"Thank you sir!"

Chu Fei cupped his fists respectfully and said.

"No. How is the palace recently? Is it still peaceful?"

Xiao Jun waved his hand, changed the subject, and suddenly became curious about the affairs in the palace.

Chu Fei froze for a moment, hesitated a little, turned his head to look at Zhou Zhou, then lowered his voice and opened his mouth.

"The prince has already found out that there may be a connection between the Second Highness and the Changshengmen, but there is no evidence, so there is no way to report it to His Majesty."

Chu Fei said softly.

Hearing these words, Xiao Jun couldn't help frowning.

It seems that Zhao Yi's heart is not dead, and he is still thinking about the position of the crown prince.

"Also, Li Rong, the chief eunuch, was probably related to the incident of being kidnapped last time. Otherwise, the killer of the Longevity Gate would not have sneaked into the palace so easily and kidnapped the prince."

Chu Fei lowered his voice again and said.

Listening to what Chu Fei said, Xiao Jun couldn't help frowning even deeper. It seemed that this matter was more complicated than he imagined.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jun couldn't help shaking his head.

"The prince also gave me the opportunity to tell my husband that the Longevity Gate should not have been born out of thin air. Everything was planned for a long time. It seems that they have been lurking in the arena for a long time, but they have not shown up in the arena. They are good at Please be more careful if you are playing tricks."

Chu Fei looked at Xiao Jun and said seriously.

"Okay, I see, thank you His Royal Highness for me."

Xiao Jun nodded, smiled and said, and didn't say anything else.

Although he has some affection for Prince Zhao Jingxuan, he still wants to keep a certain distance from the Emperor's House, and doesn't want to get too close.

Since ancient times, have there been few tragedies between monarchs and ministers?He didn't want to turn himself into a pawn that could be used at any time and discarded at any time.

Loyal ministers, sometimes they just say it to themselves.

After resting for a while, Chu Fei bid farewell to Xiao Jun and returned to the capital alone.

And Xiao Jun took his own people to Qingzhou, where there is the nearest branch of Tianmen.

Qingzhou.

The first floor in the world.

When Fan Bailing received the news that Xiao Jun and his party had returned to Qingzhou, they rushed to the gate of the city to greet them immediately.

Ever since Xiao Jun was ambushed because of his dereliction of duty last time, Fan Bailing has been sitting on pins and needles. Although Xiao Jun has expressed that he will not pursue it, he himself has always refused to forgive himself. Since then, he has been cautious and dare not make mistakes again.

And he has found out a piece of good news that he thinks is excellent, at least for Xiao Jun.

"Fan Bailing, my subordinate Qingzhou branch, see the Holy Master!"

As the Humvee slowly stopped at the gate of the city, Fan Bailing knelt down on the ground and said respectfully.

Xiao Jun slowly pushed the door of the carriage and came out. Seeing the big commotion Fan Bailing had made, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

Isn't this clearly telling his enemies that he has arrived in Qingzhou?

"Get up."

Xiao Jun said lightly, motioning Fan Bailing to get up, but he didn't express his dissatisfaction.

He also seemed to know that since he blamed Fan Bailing last time, Fan Bailing had been trying to make up for his mistakes, but it seemed that the more he made up for it, the more loopholes would appear.

"I have seen Second Senior Brother."

"Fourth Junior Brother."

At this time, Wu Lingjun also rushed over and greeted Fan Bailing.

"Okay, let's go back to the building first, the commotion here is a bit loud."

Xiao Jun said something lightly, interrupted the greetings of the two senior brothers, and then walked into the carriage again.

Fan Bailing and Wu Lingjun looked at each other, did not speak again, and immediately walked towards the city with their own people.

Although Xiao Jun only mentioned a word lightly, Fan Bailing had already understood it, and couldn't help but fell into self-blame again, knowing that he had made a mistake again.

After returning to the No. [-] Tianxia Building, Xiao Jun first called Zhao Zilong and his subordinates to him, introduced them to Fan Bailing and Wu Lingjun, and then explained that he had told Kang Guangling to train a group of personal guards for him, the captain of the guards , he has decided to let Zhao Zilong take over.

Wu Lingjun also met Zhao Zilong in Shangjing, and he had a good impression, so he couldn't help but praise him.

So, under Fan Bailing's arrangement, Zhao Zilong left Qingzhou City early the next morning, and took his own people directly to Xiaoyao Mountain to participate in the training of the guards.

But as for how many of him and his subordinates will be selected into the guards in the end, we can only see the outcome after the training camp is over.
