As soon as Xiao Jie arrived at the door of the imperial study room, the little eunuch who was in charge of the transmission at the door couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, you can be counted as coming. There is a decree from the Holy Spirit. If you come, you don't need to announce it. See you immediately." Come on, Your Highness, please follow me in!"

Xiao Jie nodded, followed the little eunuch into the imperial study room, bowed his head as soon as he entered the door: "I will see my father."

"The emperor doesn't need to be so courteous." Xiao Ji smiled and waved his hands, then winked at Lian Yi, the guard at the side, Lian Yi understood, and immediately called the other eunuchs and maids in the imperial study room to leave the imperial study room.

As soon as the palace servants retreated, the smile on Xiao Ji's face disappeared instantly, and he said slowly, "Have you heard about the Dihu people?"

Xiao Jie nodded lightly: "I have heard about it."

Xiao Ji smiled faintly, his eyes fell on the thick stack of memorials on the imperial table, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know what is said in these memorials?"

Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "Presumably, I want to persuade my father to hand Dihu's prince Heliantuo and Dihu's princess Ayili to Dihu's envoys and bring them back to the royal court in Mobei, so as to prevent Daning and Dihu from fighting each other and fighting again. fighting."

"I want to know what you think." Xiao Ji didn't seem surprised that his son was able to guess the content of the memorial, but he took a deep look at Xiao Jie and asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Jie shook his head without hesitation, and said decisively: "Reporting to the emperor, I believe that Heliantuo and Ayili must not be returned to the Dihu envoy."

"Tell me your reason!" Regarding Xiao Jie's resoluteness, Xiao Ji did not comment, but continued to ask calmly.

Xiao Jie pondered for a moment, then asked: "Father, do you know how Dihu's Yida Khan died?"

Xiao Ji couldn't help frowning: "The Dihu people said that they died of old age... From what you mean, is there something else wrong with it?"

"Father is right!" Xiao Jie nodded heavily, "Yida Khan was poisoned to death."

"what?"

No matter how calm and calm Xiao Ji was, his face could not help but change slightly at this moment, "Helian Luo is Dihu Khan, who is so bold, dare to poison his life."

"Father might as well think about it, who will benefit the most after Yida Khan's death?" Xiao Jie didn't answer Father's question directly, but asked again rhetorically.

Xiao Ji's heart sank suddenly, his eyes were full of disbelief: "You mean, He Liantao killed his father?"

Xiao Jie nodded, and said in a deep voice: "He Liantao is only Yida Khan's fifth son, and his mother is from the Huyan tribe of the Helian tribe, so he had no chance of succeeding Dihu Khan. "

"But first Khan Yida died in a mysterious way in his prime of life, and after his death, Ke Dun and his three sons also died in a strange manner. In addition, Helian Tuo was far away in the Central Plains, and Helian Tao was logically inherited as Khan ...Such a variety of things, doesn't Father think it's too much a coincidence?"

"Therefore, Yida Khan and his three sons must have been killed by Heliantao. If Heliantuo and Ayili were handed over to him, they must also die!"

Xiao Ji frowned: "Even so, it doesn't prove that the deaths of Helianluo and his three sons are related to Heliantao."

Xiao Jie seemed to have thought that Xiao Ji would ask this question a long time ago, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "My father doesn't know something. Ye Qiu's mother, Rong, is proficient in the art of Qi and Huang, and is well versed in the way of seeing, hearing, asking, and knowing. She has long seen that Yida Khan The poison in his body is very poisonous, but he has not told others about it, but privately told the people sent by the minister to Dihu Wangting, and asked them to pass it on to the minister."

"Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter earlier." Xiao Ji was startled and angry, and couldn't help snorting, his eyes clearly dissatisfied.

"Father, calm down." Xiao Jie hastily confessed, with a look of fear and sincerity on his face, "I didn't intend to deceive my father, it's just that Mrs. Rong just told my son Yi Da Khan that he was poisoned, but he didn't know who did it. Therefore, the minister did not dare to disturb the emperor at will. He wanted to send someone to find out the authenticity of the matter and the person who poisoned him, and then report it to the emperor... But I didn't expect that the minister hadn't found out the truth yet. Da Khan died unexpectedly, and his Ke Dun and three sons also died violently, so that the person who poisoned him is clearly exposed."

"Nian you are the first offender this time, I will forgive you for the time being, if there is another time next time, I will never forgive you lightly." Xiao Ji's face turned pale at this moment, but then his face sank, a little puzzled, "Since Rong knew someone was poisoning, why didn't he tell Helian Luo earlier, but just watched him die unexpectedly?"

"My father didn't know something. Rong told the servants that although she had been in Dihu for many years, she had always cared about Daning. From his point of view, if Yida Khan was poisoned and killed by someone, his several relatives would be killed." His son must fight to the death for the title of Khan, and Di Hu will be greatly injured by this. In this way, they will no longer be able to invade the Central Plains... But no one would have imagined that He Liantao would be so ruthless, not only He killed his father by poison, and also killed the three elder brothers who stayed in the royal court, and took the position of Khan in one fell swoop, avoiding a civil strife in Dihu, but wasted all Rong's thoughts in vain." Mr. Xiao Jie He let out a long sigh, as if he really regretted the matter.

Xiao Ji was silent for a while, and then said with emotion: "In this way, this Rong family is a strange woman with a strong heart. If she is in the Central Plains, I can give him a first-rank wife as a reward."

Xiao Jie seemed to have been waiting for Xiao Ji's words for a long time, and he couldn't help but smiled slightly: "If the emperor allows it, I can send someone to rescue this Rong family back to the Central Plains."

At this moment, Xiao Ji suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

This is simply an absurdity in the world, where is Mrs. Rong, Mobei royal court!That is the old lair of the Dihu people, and it is simply impossible to rescue a living person from there.

Besides, although Rong has a deep heart for the Central Plains, his heart is lamentable, but if he needs to pay a heavy price and sacrifice a large number of elite people in order to rescue her, then he has to reconsider whether it is worth it.

Xiao Jie seemed to see through Father's doubts, and reminded in a low voice: "Father, the Rong family is Heliantuo's biological mother, and Heliantuo is a dutiful son, if Daning can rescue the Rong family..."

Xiao Jie didn't continue talking, he knew that his father would understand what he meant.

Xiao Ji fell into silence again, he stood up and paced back and forth for a long time, finally stopped, looked at Xiao Jie quietly, and said in a deep voice: "You are almost certain that you can rescue Mrs. Rong unscathed."

Xiao Jie did not avoid Xiao Ji's gaze: "At least [-]%!"

Xiao Ji didn't speak, but just stared firmly into Xiao Jie's eyes, as if trying to see through his heart.

Then, Xiao Ji suddenly said, "What do you need me to do?"

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, but his words were startling: "Father needs to declare war on Di Hu!"
