Chapter 107 Xuanwu's Identity
Chapter 107 Xuanwu's Identity
"We will talk about your father in detail later."
Qiao Feng said this and asked Shi Qingxuan to go back into the house.
Then, he and Dongfang Bai waited for Li Shimin and others in the yard.
"Brother, you, hey... once this happens, I'm afraid the peace of Chang'an will be broken."
As soon as Li Shimin came in, he winked at Qiao Feng and looked heartbroken.
The others around him echoed.
"Yes, Mr. Qiao's actions this time were a bit too ostentatious."
"Now the East Palace blames and even alarms the emperor, which will be troublesome."
……
A group of people sighed repeatedly, but their words became much more restrained.
If it were someone else, they would probably point at him and scold him.
Most of those who can come here are from the Qin King's camp.
Who could have thought that just after Qiao Feng became sworn brothers with the King of Qin, he would turn around and cause chaos in the Eastern Palace.
Qiao Feng bowed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with the King of Qin. I will handle it myself and there will be a result soon. Please wait for a moment."
People like Li Jing and Li Ji, who were more stable, immediately looked between Qiao Feng and Li Shimin.
Although others with short tempers grumbled, they did not dare to question openly.
Qiao Feng asked Xiao Zhao to serve them tea first and arranged for them to sit down and calm down.
"Second brother, this matter is indeed a bit unexpected.
"I wanted to meet my friend, but when I went to the East Palace, I found that the Crown Prince was attracted by her beauty and wanted to imprison her in the East Palace. I had no choice but to force her out."
Qiao Feng pulled Li Shimin and said.
"what?"
"Is the prince such a person?"
"It is said that the prince is gentle and modest, unlike this kind of lustful and hungry person."
……
Upon hearing this, several people slammed their tables and stood up, shocked.
The other people also looked shocked and confused.
They had never thought that this would be the reason. If this was the case, this matter would not have much impact on them.
But Qiao Feng asked them to wait, so they waited.
Sure enough, after just a moment, several servants came to the courtyard, and after informing, they whispered something to the masters of each family.
Li Shimin sat with Qiao Feng with a sad face, and no one knew what they were talking about. After hesitating for a while, the ministers walked over.
"Young Master, there is news." Cheng Yaojin's eyes rolled and he hurried over.
Li Shimin asked, "Oh? What's the reaction from the East Palace?"
Cheng Yaojin said: "The Eastern Palace has not reacted for the time being. No one has come out since the blockade, but there seem to be a lot of rumors in Chang'an City."
"What are they spreading?"
"When the Crown Prince first met Lady Shi, he was attracted by her beauty and conspired with the King of Qi to keep her in the East Palace. This was discovered by the hero Qiao, so for the sake of his friend, Qiao Feng was forced to intervene..."
Li Shimin was surprised and said, "So the friend you are talking about is Mr. Shi."
Qiao Feng said, “That’s right. It’s a pity that there was a general at the peak of the Grandmaster level beside the Crown Prince to stop him. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have caused such a big commotion.”
Li Shimin was shocked: "Grandmaster peak?"
He looked at the ministers and generals in front of him who were equally shocked, and asked, "Do you know this news?"
Everyone shook their heads, but their faces were heavy and they were lost in thought.
After a brief greeting, Li Shimin took everyone away.
Dongfang Bai was stunned and asked, "How could there be such news? Was it arranged by the leader?"
Qiao Feng shook his head: "No, it was arranged by Li Shimin. We have an agreement. If I return peacefully, everything will remain the same. If I come back in a fight, this rumor will spread throughout Chang'an within a quarter of an hour."
Xiao Zhao was surprised and said, "So the leader had already made preparations. No wonder he dared to go to the East Palace. But I heard that this prince is not bad."
Qiao Feng shrugged, "Perhaps other aspects are good, but this rumor is at least half true. If we don't go, Miss Shi will probably be forced to stay in the East Palace."
Dongfang Baidao: "The Tang Dynasty doesn't look very good. With the prince like this, the Tang Dynasty may be the first to be eliminated in the future."
Qiao Feng smiled and said, "Anything is possible in the future, we won't get involved."
After briefly finishing things here, he invited Shi Qingxuan to the living room.
"Master Qiao, may I ask where my father is now?"
Shi Qingxuan heard everything that had just happened. She was not worried about Qiao Feng and the others, but she still wanted to know about her father's affairs urgently.
"Do you know the new deputy leader of the Ming Cult?"
Shi Qingxuan was stunned, "He is my father?"
But immediately, she nodded to herself: "That's right, with his strength, he can definitely intimidate the heroes of the Ming Cult, but nearly twenty years have passed, and his strength seems to have not improved much."
Dongfang Bai was thoughtful.
A master in the late Grandmaster stage whose surname is Shi?
Qiao Feng watched Shi Qingxuan calm down and said, "Looking at your attitude now, do you not hate him anymore?"
Shi Qingxuan was slightly surprised, "Does Hero Qiao also know about what happened between us?"
"Have heard a little bit."
"Alas, after so many years...it has faded a lot. I just hope he can be safe."
Qiao Feng said: "Perhaps you didn't know something back then, which led to the father and daughter not being able to recognize each other."
Shi Qingxuan looked at Qiao Feng in confusion.
Qiao Feng said, “Back then, he had problems with his training and developed severe schizophrenia. Although he suppressed it, after your mother passed away, he blamed himself and completely collapsed, so he often fell into madness.
"Although he protected you in secret for many years, his madness became more and more serious, and he was awake less and less. He had no choice but to freeze himself to avoid hurting you. This is also the reason why he has not recognized you for twenty years..."
Qiao Feng recounted the details, Xiao Zhao sighed, and Dongfang Bai roughly guessed who this person was.
Shi Qingxuan was silent for a moment, his body trembling slightly.
"So... the past was so cruel. I hated him for more than ten years. I hated him for killing my mother and for leaving without saying goodbye to my young daughter.
"I didn't expect the truth back then to be like this. Now he..."
Qiao Feng said, "If his madness is not cured, how dare I let him become the deputy leader of the Ming Cult?"
Shi Qingxuan wiped the tears from her face and said with a smile: "Thank you, Hero Qiao. If you hadn't saved my father, I don't know how many years he would have been frozen. I would have lived with resentment forever."
Seeing her tearful appearance, Qiao Feng sighed, "This is also a coincidence. Otherwise, who would have known that the evil king who once dominated the martial arts world would end up like this? But how did you end up in the Prince Qi's mansion and even in the Eastern Palace?"
Shi Qingxuan looked slightly solemn, "They said they could help me find my father."
Qiao Feng frowned when he heard this: "Have you told them your father's true identity?"
"Not yet. I just arrived in Chang'an when someone came to see me. I think they probably know who my father is. Fortunately, Hero Qiao rescued him in advance."
Qiao Feng asked: "Do you know who they are?"
"I don't know, but from what I've observed, even the Crown Prince and the King of Qi are very wary of them."
Qiao Feng smiled and said, "It looks like it's the Azure Dragon Society again. Do you know the identity of Xuanwu? There are a number of powerful people at the peak of Grandmaster level in the world. This person is very strange. I was not able to find out his background."
Shi Qingxuan shook her head: "I don't know either. Xuanwu was brought to the prince by those people to protect him, but Xuanwu seemed to have a relationship with the prince, the prince of Qi and the others. I saw them often staring at Xuanwu in a daze."
Qiao Feng was silent for a while, but had no idea, so he gave up.
"Once the rumor spreads, coupled with the Qin Palace's manipulation, the Eastern Palace will be in a state of panic. We should just focus on preparing for the Huashan Sword Contest."
Shi Qingxuan hesitated and said, "Master Qiao, my father..."
"Don't worry, he will arrive in Chang'an tomorrow at the latest, otherwise he won't be able to make it to the Huashan Sword Contest."
