Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 716 Conversation
Chen Zheng stared at the food and wine on the table, as well as the smile on the little emperor's face. Was this already prepared?
Guess I'm coming?
Chen Zheng sat down very calmly. "Your Majesty actually knew that I was coming. It seems that someone pointed me out, but it was easy for me to find it in the imperial garden."

Li Mingcheng was stunned when he heard this, "Huh? No one gave me any advice. Aren't you the distinguished guest who only came here after receiving my news?"

Both of them stared with surprise in their eyes.

What is this operation?

After an exchange, it turned out that there was a problem in the middle.

The little emperor sent someone to invite one of Chen Zheng and the others to meet during the day, but Chen Zheng didn't receive it. If someone like him appeared, Yang Tongtao would definitely not stop him.

The time when the little emperor sent someone happened to be when Chen Zheng and the others were preparing to contact the little emperor. If they came at this time, the relevant personnel would definitely be treated well, but there was no such person.

The problem arose with the poisoned eunuch.

His cultivation is only at the initial stage of Tongmai Realm.The truly loyal father-in-law was almost dead when he was in Germination Sect, and those who stayed were more or less thoughtful.

As for the advanced ones, there is no need to think too much. They were all buried with the royal family before, so the number of masters in the palace is pitiful now. If it weren't for those loyal ministers and their families to gather a few people, the security problem of the palace would be difficult to solve.

This eunuch is considered to be of high cultivation.

Neither of them is stupid and realizes that there is something wrong with the chief eunuch.

Although Li Mingcheng had a look of anger on his face, he soon calmed down a lot. He knew that he was young and could not be exchanged for true loyalty, but he thought he was good to those eunuchs, but now even the eunuchs betrayed him. There is no need to say more about who is behind, it is naturally such a group of loyal ministers.

"It seems that there is a little accident. If His Majesty allows, I will use some small tricks now, can I interrogate?" Chen Zheng asked with a smile on his face.

"No, no problem." Li Mingcheng pursed his lips, agreeing to Chen Zheng's manipulation.

Then there is the traditional method of torture used by the Procuratorate, which is divided into muscles and bones, and tortured with poison.

In short, it is more painful.

In the end, the big eunuch was not able to survive the torture. It stands to reason that he can be a rootless ruthless person, and should have a certain degree of resistance to torture, but after all, the old eunuch is old and was confused for a while.

Li Mingcheng was not afraid of such a bloody scene. Of course, he kept his face on the surface. As for whether the child was really scared, he didn't know.

It's just that there was a hint of admiration in the corner of Chen Zheng's eyes. As expected, although the selected person was a little young, he had good courage.

Chen Zheng was satisfied. If it was a slug, it would be really difficult to deal with. It would be inconvenient to just change it.

Now this is fine.

Then Chen Zheng used the corpse water to clean up the last trace of the eunuch, and then washed the ground with water.

Li Mingcheng didn't say a word during this process, but his face was pale. He had seen many dead people, but this kind of behavior of destroying corpses was too cruel.

It also made him realize that the people in the upper realm are also very ruthless, and he must deal with it seriously, and there must be no mistakes.

Otherwise, the eunuch would be his own end.

The ins and outs of the matter have also been clarified.

On the surface, the big eunuch works for the little emperor, but he is worried about his own safety. If it is a powerful dynasty and a powerful emperor, he can naturally serve him loyally. He may not even be able to completely control the power of the imperial palace, so he is naturally not worthy of the eunuch's trust, so he needs a brand new backer.

And this backer is Lin Xian.

It can be said that he is a loyal minister of the Onishi Dynasty.

It is also a leader-level figure of those loyal ministers.

Lin Xian asked the eunuch to take good care of His Majesty the Emperor, and at the same time protect His Majesty's safety. Now that the situation in the mainland has calmed down, the warriors in the Tongmai Realm have become a force enough to protect His Majesty the Emperor.

The big eunuch hadn't moved much before, and everything was as usual.

Until Li Mingcheng arranged for him to notify the people in the upper world, and asked someone to meet Li Mingcheng.

The eunuch was smart enough to pass the news to Lin Xian instead of contacting him immediately.

Then the answer was to not let people from the upper realm have contact with Li Mingcheng.

Let the eunuch think of a better excuse.

So he didn't notify at all.

In the end, both parties did not know. If Chen Zheng hadn't come, the last little emperor would probably go back to the bedroom angrily, and then think that he is a person from the upper world who looks down on him, and will not have any contact with people from the upper world. A thorn fell.

Li Mingcheng has been listening from the sidelines, but there is no anger in his eyes. He can control his emotions very well.

I don't have anything I want, I'm an emperor in name, can someone really help me?I'm afraid they all have a certain purpose.

Although the Lin family is loyal, but in Li Mingcheng's view, if the Lin family does not seek hegemony, it will never be the target of attack. A good reputation is borne by loyal ministers, but a bad reputation is borne by the emperor. Naturally, the Lin family is willing to do such a good thing. Great loyal minister.

Otherwise, why didn't he really try his best to save the blood of the direct royal family of the Daxi Dynasty?In the end, he kept his collateral lineage. If it wasn't for a group of people who suddenly appeared, Li Mingcheng would not have known that he actually had royal blood in him.

The Lin family is loyal to the dynasty and has made great contributions to the development of Daxi, and has a very good reputation among the people. As for the royal family, it is possible that it is possible to use the hands of the Germinal Sect to weaken the people above them.

Now the Daxi dynasty has the most power to speak, not Li Mingcheng, nor is it someone from any other force, only Lin Xian.

The head of the Lin family has a very good reputation, and the Lin family has a great career. It is hard to guess what he is thinking, anyway, the side he shows is indeed the performance of a loyal minister.

It's just that outsiders don't know the inside story, only Li Mingcheng has a feeling in his heart.

He felt that the Lin family had great intentions, and he even had a bold guess that the Lin family wanted to be the uncrowned king.

Perhaps the first generation of the Lin family was indeed very loyal.

Three generations or so have no other thoughts.But after more than a dozen generations, guarding such a large industry but being just a thug, who can demand from you with a single order, there will always be people in the Lin family who will be dissatisfied. As time goes by, this dissatisfaction may become more and more serious. It is not impossible to change the structure of the Lin family and their policies in the end.

Look at the current results. The Lin family is growing stronger and stronger, and the royal family that was originally on top of them has left little shrimps. It seems to outsiders that there is nothing wrong with the form, but to be honest, who is this country based on? Where is the will at work?

Why did Lin Xian prevent the little emperor from contacting people from the upper realm? Was he afraid that he would betray the country or hurt the interests of the Lin family?

You can't think about it in detail, and you can't stop thinking about it.

"Your Majesty, you seem to be in a bad mood. The food and drink are good. I have checked that there is no problem. If you don't eat any more, it will be cold." Chen Zheng ate and drank very comfortably.

As for whether Lin Xian has any influence, it doesn't have a big impact on their plan, but they need to do more tricks.

The Lin family can't be saved. It's just a matter of time.

Because in the Daxi Dynasty, the influence of the Lin family is too great, and the real movement of the Daxi Dynasty will shake three times, especially now that the imperial power can be said to be unprecedentedly weak, and the Lin family is in full swing at this time.

Shen Feng and Chen Zheng said that if they want to support the forces and directly build the Daxi Dynasty into a force based on their interests, they cannot avoid the Lin family.

Either the people of the Lin family are willing to cooperate, and the two sides work together, but judging from the reaction of the little emperor now, it seems that the Lin family is not active in this regard.

Then if the Lin family doesn't cooperate, it will be a hindrance.

Those who stood in front of them really couldn't stay, they had to use the Lin family, or if they didn't use the Lin family, they had to get rid of them.

There are also some inconvenient reasons for this.

The persecution that Shen Feng suffered before was more or less concerned with the people of the Lin family.

And Shen Feng is really not a magnanimous person. When he has no strength, he will endure it and will not retaliate, but when he has the opportunity, he will not be merciful and has a strong desire for revenge.

Shen Feng also told Chen Zheng about this matter, and Chen Zheng didn't mind this kind of revenge for personal revenge. As long as Shen Feng can be valuable and useful, they won't mind helping.

Don't look at Shen Feng, the national teacher, who only attends the event every day and doesn't speak.

But for such a long time, he has been in constant contact with some people who are not satisfied with the Lin family.

It is impossible for the Lin family to rise peacefully. There are many conflicting forces among them. However, due to the influence of the Lin family, they dare not do anything and can only be trampled under their feet.

The common people will not know these things, and even if they know, they will not think that the Lin family is at fault. Instead, they will preconceive that there are problems with other families, that the Lin family is aboveboard, and so on.

In short, it is very trustworthy.

Perhaps the only people who can compare with the Lin family in terms of prestige are Chen Zheng and the others from the upper realm.

The temptation of the upper world is very great. The Lin family's reputation is good, but that is a spiritual pursuit. They admire the Lin family's honesty and integrity, but when faced with a more superior material living environment, they will undoubtedly choose the latter.

This is the confidence that Chen Zheng and others have to deal with the Lin family instead of relying on pure force.

The little emperor started to move after hearing Chen Zheng's words. To be honest, he just experienced such a bloody scene and was able to eat it. Li Mingcheng's determination is strong enough.

But the little emperor didn't say anything, he always felt that it was meaningless.

"Your Majesty, we have come here by coincidence. Don't say anything. Since you want to see us, you should have something to say." Chen Zheng continued to eat. The food and drink were not bad, and he could even feel the restlessness of a certain cutie in the system space.

This is the temptation of delicious food.

Chen Zheng didn't want her to come out, what if the children were frightened, young people nowadays are not frightened.

Especially after experiencing such an exciting scene just now.

"Oh, I just want to see what's different about people from the upper world. I've heard it from many people, but I haven't understood it in depth. I'm a little curious. Everyone is looking for a chance to go out. Then why do I still stay here like a puppet?" Li Mingcheng didn't hesitate to say what he said.

Chen Zheng nodded but said something like this: "Your Majesty, it always feels awkward to forget it, and you don't want to be forced to stay in this seat. You really think that the outside world will be better than others." How is it here?"

Li Mingcheng nodded. He had heard stories from outsiders about the Upper Realm. Although he thought there might be some exaggerated factors in it, it wasn't all false.

Looking at Li Mingcheng's immature face, Chen Zheng felt that this child was suffering too, so he began to explain it to him.

It is in the process of communication between the two sides that they have a deeper understanding.

Chen Zheng learned the little emperor's real name, Li Mingcheng.It can be regarded as a preliminary understanding of his life.

And Li Mingcheng also learned from Chen Zheng that the upper realm is not as beautiful as those storytellers imagined.

It is indeed huge, but if you want to live a good life, you have to work hard on your own.

If you think about hanging around in the past, that would be really just hanging around and waiting to die.

If people give up on themselves, they will not be able to live anywhere.

Where in this world is there such a thing as a pie in the sky, and it just happened to you.

The Yuanwu Continent is indeed a place where opportunities and risks coexist, but this also means that there are risks, and they may be more severe than the Fengyun Continent.

The battles between warriors and various forces are more intense than Fengyun Continent in terms of scene and degree.

But Li Mingcheng still wanted to go. He didn't like to sit in such a seat, and he didn't say much about it. He just felt lonely. After only a few months, he felt that he was not used to it. It will be like this for many years to come.

Li Mingcheng's young mind was severely impacted.

He desperately wants to leave, even though the upper world is a dangerous place, but I am much better than staying here.

But Chen Zheng also explained that life in the upper world is not smooth sailing. At the same time, you must have corresponding value. Having an extra mouth to eat for no reason, and going through all kinds of ups and downs, has no actual value. The world will not want it.

Li Mingcheng thought about it, and said to Chen Zheng, "Brother Chen, is this good? I will be a good emperor to help you, and I will transfer it to someone you trust immediately after the matter is completed. Then give me a chance to go out, okay? Don't worry. Yes, I can wait." Li Mingcheng had a rare embarrassment on his face when he said this.

It turns out that the little guy will still be shy this month, if he is so calm, Chen Zheng will start to doubt.
