Chapter 431 Meeting in the Imperial Palace
Nie Tian caught the weirdness in Yao Feike's eyes and frowned.
The junior sister in Yao Feike's mouth was, of course, Weng Haoxuan's mother.
Nie Tian was so smart that he could tell from Yao Feike's eyes that there must be a story between the latter and Weng Haoxuan's mother.
Yao Feike looked calm and cautious, but the more such a person was, the more deeply in love he was.
"If Master wants, Xuan'er can accompany Master to visit the mother." Weng Haoxuan obviously guessed what Yao Feike was thinking and said with a smile.
Maybe others didn't know, but Weng Haoxuan knew very well that Yao Feike had a relationship with his mother Jingfei when he was young, but was later separated by the Great Chu Emperor.
But Yao Feike was a very affectionate person. Even if Jingfei had become the imperial concubine of the Great Chu Emperor, he still didn't forget her. Until now, there is still a trace of fantasy in his heart.
Of course, Weng Haoxuan didn't go to the palace to see his mother this time, but if it could make Yao Feike happy, it would be fine to go and see her by the way, and it would also show his filial piety.
Unfortunately, Yao Feike has always been unwilling to get involved in the vortex of secular power struggles. Otherwise, with him, Weng Haoxuan would not have to be afraid of the national teacher behind the prince.
Now he can only invite Yao Feike occasionally, and the latter still comes for the sake of Concubine Jing.
Weng Haoxuan has always wanted to worship Yao Feike as his teacher, but the latter did not agree. In fact, this is Yao Feike's expression of rejecting secular power struggles.
Yao Feike certainly understands that if he really becomes Weng Haoxuan's teacher, he will have to participate in the struggle for the throne of Da Chu.
"Yeah." Yao Feike nodded.
At this time, Murong Ziying and Yao'er appeared, obviously invited by Weng Haoxuan.
"Teacher."
"Master."
The two walked in front of Yao Feike, both with their heads down, and their voices were as small as mosquitoes and flies.
These two people ran out privately, and of course they were guilty.
Yao Feike didn't mean to blame, but just nodded slightly and said, "I'm glad you're all right."
A light sentence, without any extra reaction, revealed Yao Feike's love for his disciples.
"Thank you, teacher." Murong Ziying finally raised her head and smiled.
When Weng Haoxuan saw this scene, his eyes changed when he looked at Murong Ziying, just like a wolf seeing a little sheep. Although it was only a moment, it was perfectly captured by Nie Tian.
Nie Tian didn't say anything or show it, just sat quietly, sipping the tea in his hand.
"Master, let's go to the palace now." Weng Haoxuan said and stood up. He also wanted to know why Nie Tian had to see the emperor.
"Okay." Yao Feike stood up, thinking of Concubine Jing in the palace, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Nie Tian also stood up and prepared to leave.
In fact, Nie Tian's desire to see the emperor is not so strong now. Compared with the emperor, he wants to see the legendary mysterious national teacher more.
A moment later, a carriage drove out of the Xuanwang Mansion and headed towards the palace.
There were only three people on the carriage, Weng Haoxuan, Yao Feike, and Nie Tian.
The current emperor of Dachu lives in the harem and rarely sees outsiders. It is already the limit to bring Yao Feike and Nie Tian with him.
Nie Tian asked Goudan and Duanmu Lu to wait in the palace.
At the same time when the carriage drove out of the Xuanwang Mansion, a figure lurking near the palace appeared, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.
This face was none other than Zhou Yuyao who greeted Weng Haorui at the National Master's Mansion that day.
She followed the order of her master Hu Xiaoli to take Nie Tian back to the National Master's Mansion.
Unfortunately, Nie Tian entered the Xuanwang Mansion. No matter how arrogant she was, she didn't dare to force her way into the Xuanwang Mansion, so she lurked nearby.
"The direction of the carriage is the palace. Does the Xuanwang want to see the emperor? Go back and report to the teacher." Zhou Yuyao frowned slightly, and her figure flashed away.
Soon, the carriage arrived outside the palace.
Nie Tian and the other two got off the carriage and walked into the palace.
"The palace gate is as deep as the sea." Nie Tian looked at the majestic and magnificent palace gate in front of him and couldn't help but sigh softly.
The palace hall looks magnificent and golden, but who knows how much unknown dirt is hidden inside.
With Weng Haoxuan leading the way, the three people traveled smoothly all the way and soon arrived at the palace hall.
However, it was not the emperor who was waiting for them in the hall, but the crown prince Weng Haorui and the national teacher Hu Xiaoli.
Knowing that Nie Tian and Prince Xuan were going to enter the palace, Hu Xiaoli actually went ahead of them and waited in the hall early.
"Weng Haoxuan, see my brother." Walking into the hall, Weng Haoxuan did not perform a big ceremony, but just bowed slightly to Weng Haorui next to the throne.
The emperor retreated to the harem, and the crown prince was the regent. Unfortunately, he was not the emperor after all, so he could only get another chair and put it next to the throne.
Weng Haoxuan looked at Weng Haorui, who was only one step away from the throne, with extremely complicated eyes.
In his eyes, that position should belong to him, and only to him, but the person closest to the position now is Weng Haorui.
"Prince Xuan, why did you come to the palace when you were not summoned by your father?" Weng Haorui sat beside the throne. Although he was talking to Weng Haoxuan, his eyes were always fixed on Nie Tian beside the latter.
He did not expect that Nie Tian would dare to appear in the palace openly after killing Lu Zhenyuan, breaking into the Tianlao, and making a scene in Wanchunyuan.
If Hu Xiaoli had not told him to be patient, Weng Haorui would have asked the palace's secret guards to chop Nie Tian into meat paste.
Nie Tian ignored Weng Haorui at all, and his eyes were always on the national teacher Hu Xiaoli who was standing next to him.
At this time, Hu Xiaoli was wearing a black robe and a black gauze mask. There was a faint red halo flowing all over her body. The halo seemed to have a very strange power, and even Nie Tian could not see her face clearly.
"It seems that you are the legendary mysterious national teacher." Nie Tian was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the legendary mysterious national teacher would be a woman.
What surprised Nie Tian even more was that Hu Xiaoli seemed to have the aura of the innate heterochromatic eye Xihen Eye!
Xihen Eye, ranked ninth among the ten innate heterochromatic eyes, is called the ninth heterochromatic eye! It ranks after Ruoyu Qianye's seventh heterochromatic eye, the nine-color pupil, but before the tenth heterochromatic eye, the purple extreme demon pupil, of Ziwei Emperor, one of the nine emperors of the heaven.
Nie Tian did not know the true function of Xihen Eye, but he had seen people with Xihen Eye, and the aura was exactly the same as Hu Xiaoli's.
Hu Xiaoli was also observing Nie Tian at this moment. Her pair of charming eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, but she could not see through Nie Tian. She only felt that there was a very terrible power hidden in Nie Tian's body. This power made her innate eye Xihen Eye inexplicably excited.
"Nie Tian, the Lord of Tianluo City, who was favored by the God of Death, can actually live to this day. There is indeed a power in your body that can open the Xihen Eye!" Hu Xiaoli was extremely excited, and even her body trembled a little.
She had sensed the mysterious power from Nie Tian's sword energy before. At this moment, she was less than a few dozen meters away from Nie Tian. She was more convinced that the power in Nie Tian's body was the key to her opening the Xihen Eye!
