Chapter 674  Collapsed (2)



Xiao Shoufu stopped talking and pursed his lips tightly.

That was right, there was definitely no mistake about this.

Xiao Shoufu retracted his gaze and met Madam Xiao's eyes. A confident smile appeared on his lips as he continued, "Feng Yang doesn't have much time left, so she has to establish a Crown Prince before her lifespan ends."

"Feng Yang is anxious, and so is the Emperor. They're even more anxious than us, so we can push the boat step by step… When the conditions are right, everything will fall into place."

His tone became more and more certain, and a sharp light shot out of his eyes, showing his ambition.

Madam Xiao smiled in relief and leaned against the big pillow behind.

The expression on Xiao Shoufu's face gradually relaxed. He walked back to the bed and sat down, then patted his palm gently on the coffee table twice and sighed with emotion. "I'm still old in the end, that's why I'm worried about personal gains and losses."

When he was in his prime, he was bold and decisive. Only then could his Xiao family return to its current prominent position and have a status side by side with the Yuan family.

And last night, he couldn't sleep. He thought about it repeatedly and didn't sleep much the whole night.

As the person beside her, Madam Xiao naturally knew that it hadn't been easy for her master.

She personally replenished Xiao Shoufu's tea and even sent the teacup to him. She comforted him gently, "Master, you're planning before deciding. For the future of the family, this is how it should be."

"It's never wrong to be cautious."

To be very disrespectful, the previous Emperor was too rash back then. In order to strike first and take down Feng Yang, he planned the whole thing alone without discussing it with the aristocratic families. In the end, he was restrained by Feng Yang.

If the previous Emperor had done it 21 years ago, why would they take the risk again!

Xiao Shoufu took two sips of tea and calmed down before covering the red-lacquered wooden food box again.

He had already made a decision in his heart. The arrow was on the bow, and it was time to release the bow.

Clap! Clap!

Xiao Shoufu clapped twice, and Madam Xiao temporarily hid behind the screen.

Soon, the door curtain leading to the outer room was lifted from the outside, and a middle-aged man dressed in a plain blue straight robe quickly walked in.

The night gradually deepened. That night, the huge palace was very calm, but not very 11:40

calm. The mountain wind was strong, and the sound kept blowing for the entire night. His figure was lean, and his face was ordinary. There was a kind of strength in his footsteps.

"Master." The middle-aged man cupped his fists respectfully at Xiao Shoufu.

Insect cries could be vaguely heard from outside the window.

Xiao Shoufu shook his sleeves gently and gritted his teeth secretly. His heart tightened, but on the surface, he pretended to be calm and indifferent. He instructed indifferently, "Ah Fu, return to the capital immediately."

As he spoke, he took out a Kirin-shaped bronze token from his sleeve and handed it to the middle-aged man named Ah Fu with a meaningful gaze.

This small token was as heavy as a mountain rock.

Ah Fu raised his hands high and took the bronze token relatively cautiously. He looked up and looked at Xiao Shoufu in front of him. His eyes were as sharp as swords as he replied simply, "Yes, Master."

Ah Fu put away the token and bowed again before turning to leave decisively.

The curtain was raised and lowered. Madam Xiao walked out from behind the screen, and only the couple was left in the room.

Looking at the shaking door curtain, a trace of coldness flashed in Xiao Shoufu's eyes, but there was more determination.

Madam Xiao slowly picked up the stream bead bracelet in her hand and looked at the moon in the night sky outside the window. She felt a faint fishy smell lingering in her nose.

"Master, I think it's going to rain tonight?" Madam Xiao frowned. Her expression was extremely tired as she pursed her lips and almost sighed.

Everything depended on tomorrow!

"Don't worry." Xiao Shoufu picked up his beard elegantly. The tense lines around his body clearly relaxed a little, and a smile slowly appeared on his lips. "The Imperial Astronomy has long been over. The weather has been good these three days!"

His tone was a little enthusiastic and impatient.

Outside the window, a bird flapped its wings and flew past. Its wings inadvertently brushed against the treetops, and the branches swayed gently in the night wind.

The night gradually deepened. That night, the huge palace was very calm, but not very calm. The mountain wind was strong, and the sound kept blowing for the entire night. Many people didn't sleep the whole night.

The entire palace was brightly lit, and the lights didn't go out until dawn. The sun rose slowly among the mountains, and a new day began.

Just as the Imperial Astronomer had calculated, today was a sunny day!
