Text Chapter 1799: The Tiger Is Dead, but Its Might Remains

"Yes!" Tang Henian nodded in response, then raised his head and asked: "I'm afraid this matter is a fraud. Maybe the news that Qingzhu told Zhan Ruyi may not be true."

Kou Lingxu pondered and said: "From the current situation of the Xiahou family, it seems that only this explanation can fit. Ying Jiuguang is also worried that there is a fraud. He means that we old guys should go to visit and meet Xiahou Tuo in person to know the truth."

Kou Zheng hurriedly said: "No! What if Qingzhu and Xiahou Tuo are working together? Wouldn't it be dangerous for my father to go? I am willing to go to visit on behalf of my father."

Kou Lingxu waved his hand, "It's useless for you to go. You are not qualified enough. If you go, You may not be able to see Xiahou Tuo, Xiahou Ling can send you away, can you still force your way in? Even if you can see him, you can only look at him from a distance, and there is no way to contact Xiahou Tuo. Only a few of us can contact him in person to find out the truth. "

Kou Zheng said anxiously: "But this is too dangerous."

Kou Lingxu walked to the door and looked into the distance, "Don't worry, we won't run together, we will take turns to go, and the other three families will be prepared to meet us. I believe Qingzhu and Xiahou Tuo will not dare to mess around! "

Tianweng Mansion, Ying Jiuguang was the first to arrive. There was no news before he came. It was not until he arrived at the gate of the Xiahou family that the Xiahou family knew the news.

Xiahou Ling came out to greet him personally, "Why didn't you let me know in advance that King Ying was coming? I hope you will forgive me for not welcoming you."

Ying Jiuguang shook his head, "My dear nephew, I just heard some bad news and came here to verify it in a hurry. I forgot to make any preparations. I hope you won't mind my visit!"

Xiahou Ling secretly despised him in his heart. How could someone of your status forget to make any preparations when traveling? Do you keep so many people here just to eat?

Of course, he also knew the other party's intention, and quickly extended his hand to invite him: "Heavenly King, please come in!"

Ying Jiuguang grabbed his wrist, walked in together, and said solemnly: "Is it true that the time for Tianweng to die is coming?"

The news of the Xiahou family has been strictly blocked so far. Xiahou Ling didn't know where he heard the news, but he had a judgment. No one came when the news was blocked before. After Qingzhu came, this person knew the news《＄《＄《＄《＄, m.≯.o≈m, nine out of ten times, the news was leaked from the Heavenly Palace.

"Hey!" Xiahou Ling nodded.

"How could this happen?" Ying Jiuguang looked distressed and pulled Xiahou Ling, "Hurry up, take me to see your father!"

Meeting this old rogue, Xiahou Ling was speechless, making this place like the other party's home, and he was almost dragged to the forbidden garden by Ying Jiuguang.

"Brother, I see you are here."

After entering the bedroom, seeing Xiahou Tuo sitting cross-legged and looking listless, Ying Jiuguang immediately cried out in grief, as if he hated himself for coming too late.

"King Ying is here." Xiahou Tuo smiled slightly and was about to return the greeting, but Ying Jiuguang immediately rushed over, supported him with both hands, and respectfully asked him to sit down and rest. He also took Xiahou Tuo's pulse and cast a spell to check, saying: "I really can't believe the news!"

He looked like he was concerned about Xiahou Tuo's health and helped him treat the disease.

Xiahou Ling cursed inwardly, how shameless!

"This...this...is it true?" After letting go of Xiahou Tuo's pulse, Ying Jiuguang looked shocked and unbelievable.

"It's human nature to come empty-handed and leave empty-handed." Xiahou Tuo replied with a faint smile, and then sighed: "There is something that needs the help of the Heavenly King!"

Ying Jiuguang almost patted his chest to make a promise, "Brother, just go ahead. As long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation!"

Xiahou Tuo raised his chin towards Xiahou Ling, "My health is declining, and it is difficult for me to take charge. The second son has inherited the position of the head of the Xiahou family, and His Majesty has also agreed to let him inherit the title of Tianweng, but I am afraid that I will not see that day. I am worried that something will happen to this matter. I hope that the Heavenly King will help me in the court with the title!"

Ying Jiuguang patted the back of Xiahou Tuo's hand and assured with great certainty: "Brother, keep your heart in your stomach. Even if blood is spilled three feet, I will definitely recommend this matter to the end, and there will be no ambiguity!"

"Thank you very much!"

"Brother, this is too polite."

Of course, Ying Jiuguang can't live here for a long time. It's too dangerous!

Finally, he said goodbye. He had to ask Xiahou Tuo to take care of himself. Before he left, he left a valuable gift for his visit.

After he went back, Kou Lingxu came again. The four kings came to visit him in turn.

The key point is that even though Ying Jiuguang confirmed that Xiahou Tuo's life span was really coming to an end, Kou Lingxu didn't dare to believe it completely. He had to come and check it out in person before he could feel relieved.

Kou Lingxu was like this, and so were Hao Defang and Guang Linggong. Even if the last one heard the words of the three families, he didn't dare to trust it. In such a matter, none of these people could just listen to hearsay and let it go. They had to confirm it clearly.

After they came, they all helped Xiahou Tuo check his condition with great concern. Xiahou Ling, who was accompanying him, had seen the shamelessness of these so-called kings. Usually, they looked decent and dignified, but now they understood that any one of them could be thrown on the stage to act.

Xiahou Tuo also asked several people one by one to entrust Xiahou Ling with the inheritance of the title. None of the four kings refused, and almost all of them patted their chests and made promises, and they were almost sworn. For the four kings, this kind of favor is a waste. Whether Xiahou Ling can inherit the title of Tianweng has little impact on the real situation. In this case, everyone really has to give Xiahou Tuo face.

Xiahou Ling had just taken over the Xiahou family and had a lot of things to do. It was just that these people came and he couldn't refuse to accompany the guests. Finally, after sending them away, Xiahou Ling quickly arranged the family affairs.

When he came to visit his father again, he found that his father had come out of the house and moved to the big tree he liked the most. He was lying on a recliner with a blanket on his body. Xiahou Chengyu was talking to him and peeling food and feeding it to Xiahou Tuo's mouth.

Xiahou Tuo, with his eyes half closed, seemed to enjoy this taste. Wei Shu stood silently beside him with his hands folded.

"My queen!" Xiahou Ling stepped forward and saluted.

"Second uncle!" Xiahou Chengyu, with red eyes, quickly stood up and gestured to sit down again. She didn't dare to be arrogant to Xiahou Ling now. He was already the new master of the Xiahou family, and she would have a lot to rely on in the future.

"Father!" Xiahou Ling then saluted Xiahou Tuo.

Xiahou Tuo ignored him and stared at Xiahou Chengyu, who was bowing his head sadly. He was still chewing the food Xiahou Chengyu had just fed him. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he suddenly raised his hand slowly, motioning Xiahou Chengyu to send his head over. He reached out and gently stroked the back of her head, sighing softly, "Girl, I have wronged you all these years."

It was the first time that Xiahou Chengyu heard his grandfather say this, which really touched his heart. He immediately lost control of his emotions and lay on Xiahou Tuo's chest and cried loudly, venting all the emotions he had been holding back for all these years. She came out, crying heart-wrenchingly, choking and saying, "Grandpa, Chengyu can't bear to leave you. It was Chengyu's fault before. It was Chengyu who made you angry. Chengyu doesn't want you to die..."

"Silly girl, Grandpa has lived for so many years and has never seen anyone who can't die. It's just a matter of how long you live. No one can escape when disaster comes." Xiahou Tuo patted her back gently and comforted her, "Girl, don't cry, don't cry! Raise your head, Grandpa has something to say to you."

Xiahou Chengyu raised his body and wiped his tears and choked.

Xiahou Tuo said, "Grandpa said to you before, I will say it to you again today, remember! As long as the Xiahou family doesn't fall, you will be fine. Do you understand?"

Xiahou Chengyu choked and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Granddaughter understands."

Looking at her mood, he didn't know if she really heard it. Xiahou Tuo didn't talk to her anymore. He shook his hands and said, "Your second uncle and I have something to talk about. Go!"

Xiahou Chengyu didn't dare to interfere with their business, so he had to leave.

Without other people, Xiahou Ling hesitated for a while and said, "Those people who came to visit father may have bad intentions."

Xiahou Tuo snorted coldly, "Everyone knows what they are thinking. Why, are you afraid?"

Xiahou Ling hesitated again, and finally said bluntly, "It's not that my son is afraid, but I don't know many current situations at home, and I'm afraid I can't deal with them properly."

Xiahou Tuo said, "I'm not dead yet, no one dares to touch you. Even if I die, they won't dare to act rashly for a certain period of time, leaving you enough time to prepare."

Xiahou Ling: "I'm afraid they also know this and won't let me make adequate preparations."

Xiahou Tuo closed his eyes and said, "You worry too much. Although the tiger is dead, its power is still there!"

Seeing that he was so confident, Xiahou Ling also felt confident.

After the two chatted for a while, Xiahou Ling left. He hadn't walked a few steps when he heard his father shout, "Second brother!"

Xiahou Ling stopped and turned around, only to see Xiahou Tuo staring at him with a slit of eyes, "Promise me one thing."

Xiahou Ling hurried back to obey, "Listen, son."

Xiahou Tuo said slowly: "No matter what happens in the future, no matter what Chengyu does in the future, the people of the Xiahou family must remember one thing, they must try their best to save her life. If it's really impossible, take her back home, find a good place to settle her, treat her well, and ensure that she lives to the end of her life. Rest in peace! Can you do it? "

Xiahou Ling was stunned for a moment, then said seriously: "My son will remember this in his heart!"

Xiahou Tuo said calmly: "There is one more thing. After I die, my concubines, those with children, let them go with their children, and those without children, let them go with me. Wei Shu will handle this matter and will not let you bear any crime."

This is undoubtedly to let hundreds of people be buried with him. Xiahou Ling was shocked. He looked at Wei Shu with a calm expression, suppressed the words he wanted to ask, and nodded, "Yes!"

"Well! Go." Xiahou Tuo closed his eyes again.

Xiahou Ling bowed and left, and after walking away, he couldn't help but look back.

He didn't know if it was his illusion. His father's spirit seemed to be better than when he was in the house. When he was talking in the house, he was really sick. Although he was also sick at this time, he felt the momentum of his father. (To be continued.)
