Chapter 1748 Liu Qingxiao
An unusual look flashed across Uncle Xiang's face: "Is it the Hidden Moon Palace that was attacked by Guantian Island not long ago?"
The entire Zixu Empire was ruled by the Xu family, and the Guantian Island was quite special, so once the Guantian Island did anything, the royal family would definitely receive the news as soon as possible. So it was nothing strange that Xu Huaqi and the others knew what happened in the Hidden Moon Palace.
"Yes." Yan Ning was not taboo.
"So, Brother Yan Ning is also from Yinyue Palace?"
"I used to be just an ordinary disciple, but now I am the fifth elder of the Hidden Moon Palace."
A complicated emotion appeared in Xu Huaqi's eyes: "To be honest, Brother Yan Ning, I have heard a lot about the Yinyue Palace, and... Tianqing seemed to be in Yinyue Palace a while ago."
Yan Ning nodded: "You mean the ninth prince Xu Tianqing, what is his relationship with you?"
Uncle Xiang said on behalf of Xu Huaqi: "The ninth prince seems to have no interest in power and government, so he does not pose any threat to the seventh prince for the time being. However, this person has always been swaying and may become a hidden danger in the future."
"Since that's the case, I'll be blunt," Yan Ning put away his smile, "I have a grudge with Xu Tianqing."
Xu Huaqi and the other two were surprised: "What happened between you?"
"When the Guantian Island came, Xu Tianqing had already received the news in advance, but he fled with Yuwen Lianxue, leaving Yinyue Palace unprepared and indirectly killed my master. If I were to see him again, I would not dare to say that I would kill him, at least I would let him taste enough pain!" Yan Ning said coldly.
"I see……"
Xu Tianqing nodded slowly: "I don't care about Tianqing's affairs, but I have to remind Brother Yan Ning that although Xu Tianqing is not capable, his mother is not simple."
Yan Ning frowned: "How do you say this?"
"Originally, Xu Tianqing's mother was just a maid in the palace, but she didn't know what charm she used, which made her father interested in her, which made Xu Tianqing come to her. Moreover, because of the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth when Xu Tianqing was born, the father attached great importance to Xu Tianqing a few years ago, and his mother's status in the imperial city also rose sharply. Although Xu Tianqing later acted very mediocre, his mother had enough connections and status in the imperial city, and introduced her sister to the emperor's personal Jinwu Guard as a wife. It can be said that in addition to his father and Prime Minister Yuwen, his mother Liu Qingxiao has the highest status."
After hearing what Xu Huaqi said, even Yan Ning was surprised. Xu Tianqing's mother Liu Qingxiao has such a status as a palace maid in just over a decade, which is enough to show how deep her scheming is.
It’s nothing to mess with Xu Tianqing, but if you mess with Liu Qingxiao, it seems that the consequences will be a hundred times more terrible.
"I understand, thank you for the reminder of A Qi." Yan Ning said slowly, and suddenly he thought about it and asked again: "A Qi, do you know that there is a man named Xuanyuan Potian by the Lord?"
Xuanyuan Potian is Bai Ke's biological father. It has been a lot of days since the incident in Yinyue Palace happened. I believe Xuanyuan Potian must have known what happened in Yinyue Palace. If he did have any conspiracy, it would probably not take long before he came to him.
"Xuanyuan Potian?" Xu Huaqi was stunned, "Isn't he the Jinwu Guard I mentioned? Liu Qingxiao's sister married him!"
Yan Ning was shocked. He didn't expect that this world was so coincidental. After all, the relationship between everyone actually became a big net again.
Everyone has their own secrets. Xu Huaqi observed Yan Ning's expression and saw that he was not ready to continue explaining Xuanyuan Potian's affairs, so he did not ask questions. The two of them talked about other things.
Yan Ning discovered that Xu Huaqi's thoughts were different from some conservatives in the fairy world. He supported reform, liked innovation, was considerate of the people, and cared about the world. If he could take over the position of Zi Xu Sheng in the future, he would believe that he would become a good monarch.
For the sake of Yu Kunpeng, Yan Ning also specifically mentioned Kunpeng's communication with Xu Huaqi. Xu Huaqi was very interested in this matter and promised that Yan Ning would send someone to assist Yu Kunpeng after he returned to Xiandu. Yan Ning was very grateful for this.
The two chatted for a long time until the sun sets and had dinner together. The appointment was about to start the auction, Yan Ning and Xu Huaqi and the other two left Qingzhuju together, and under the protection of Zangfeng, they went to the Vendor Pavilion.
When Xu Huaqi left the city lord's mansion, he wore a mask that could hide his breath. It seemed that his grade was not low. Even Yan Ning's powerful immortal consciousness could not determine Xu Huaqi's identity.
On the way, Yan Ning was a little worried about Bai Ke, but there were many people in the auction of Tianbao Pavilion. He didn't want Bai Ke to come to such a place, so he planned to ask Bai Ke to wait for him in Yinfeng Tower, and wait until he bought the Peiying Ming Dan and helped Lin Beisong compete for the Jiutian Xuanshui before going to find her.
At this time, the sun had completely set, and lanterns lit up in Youliang City, lighting up the dark city. The huge night pearl at the top of the Ventian Pavilion exuded a dazzling light, almost overwhelming the understanding in the sky. It was like daytime at the feet of Ventian Pavilion.
With Xu Huaqi here, the few people were walking on a special passage. At this time, Lin Beisong and Lin Nanzhu were both busy, and the only one who led Yan Ning and the others to the special passage was just a servant.
Interestingly, Yan Ning passed by Teng Yu in the passage, but the two just nodded and smiled without a conversation.
Through the long walkway, four people entered the auction venue. The huge Vendor Tower still could not accommodate so many auctioneers, so Vendor Tower was prepared for it. It had already dug 300 feet to build a giant auction venue under the tower. The auction venue looked like the ancient Roman Colosseum in the human world, with seats 360 degrees surrounding the auction table. There were huge light curtains made of something, and there were more than a dozen immortals standing around them, using their own immortal power to debug the light curtain.
Above the seat, there are multiple private rooms for special auctioneers. Xu Huaqi naturally got the private room with the best angle. Yan Ning glanced at it before entering the private room. The private room on the left was Zhou Tianqi's.
On the surface, except Xu Huaqi, the most noble person who came was Zhou Tianqi. Zhou Tianqi went to the right to the private room of the Shang brothers.
Later, Yan Ning didn't pay much attention, but just vaguely saw the word "六".
At the end of the passage, Mo Jinyu and Liu Zi were slowly walking towards them. Perhaps because they joined the Tiantian Pavilion, Lin Nanzhu also provided them with a separate private room.
Looking around, people were surging around the auction venue, and auctioneers had entered the venue one after another.
