Lie Junhou [Rebirth]

Emperor Yongguang made great efforts to rule the country and was diligent in government affairs. He never stayed out for unnecessary things, let alone neglected everything because of sightseeing. The party only stayed in the palace on the outskirts of the imperial capital for one day, and drove back to the palace in a mighty manner.

As soon as I returned to Jinling City, all the conflicts that had been temporarily put aside and eased suddenly became sharper. The imperial capital and the imperial court were like an invisible wall. After entering here, everyone was full of energy, and the breath of intrigue was raised in their throats. Put your guns anywhere to block the arrows in the dark, and no one wants to stay out of it.

Lin Yi felt this atmosphere, and felt bored, fighting back and forth for a lifetime, so it's not good to do something.

He didn't hang out in Wanyue Hall as much as before, he would go to the death row every day, under the banner of arraigning the criminal Shao Chongyou, to bring people out to get some air, and by the way, confirm that the death row jailer didn't make things difficult for him.

Shao Chongyou had doubts about Lin Yi's preferential treatment. Neither of them had complete trust in each other. In the dark cell, his thin plank bed was covered with thick and clean bedding, and the supply of lamps and candles was constant. The clear soup lacks water, and hot tea is always served.

Lin Xiaohou wanted to take special care of him, so he would never discount it or cover it up, which is a bit arrogant to say the least.

"If it's me who killed the abbot, aren't you afraid that someone will make a fuss about it in the future?" Shao Chongyou and Lin Yi sat face to face at the low table, dressed in prison uniform, still handsome and cold.

Lin Yi smiled, and opened the food box he brought, which contained snacks made by Master Dongyang: "You deserve this treatment just because of your swordsmanship, not to mention that the sword wound on the abbot was definitely not caused by your shot."

Lin Yi knew Shao Chongyou's habits very well, and gestured with his hand: "If you want to kill him, you will definitely pierce the heart with a sword, not the abdomen."

Shao Chongyou was silent for a moment, and said: "You come every day, why don't you try the case, and don't ask me why?"

Lin Yi took a sip of his tea, the crimson robe was darker under the light of the death cell, and his flying and handsome eyebrows were much deeper: "It's not yet time, I have a hunch that something big will happen recently, if I'm not in Jinling, Nie Yanli will Take care of this side, and be careful in everything."

Shao Chongyou evoked a mocking smile: "What kind of tricks did Xiao Fang use these days?"

Lin Yi laughed when he heard this: "It seems that you know him very well. On the first day, you were poisoned enough for three meals a day. In the next few days, there were five jailers who were bribed and dropped."

Shao Chongyou Duanzhan and Lin Yi gestured to each other: "I haven't seen any disturbances in prison these days. I think it was Lord Hou who took the trouble to stop those methods one by one."

Lin Yi remained silent and did not answer. He is a person who values ​​friendship. In his previous life, Shao Chong still blocked open and hidden arrows from his left and right sides. In this life, he only takes what he does as part of his duty.

Lin Yi picked up the wick with his lowered eyes, and asked bluntly: "Shao Chongyou, you went to that inn to find me that day, and asked me to avoid the Jiangliu Pavilion assassin. Who was it entrusted by?"

"If it's Xiao Fang, are you trustworthy?" Shao Chongyou's voice was low and emotionless.

"I see." Lin Yi nodded, "If you didn't fall out with him, and he asked you to hide by my side for a few years, would you do so?"

Shao Chong thought for a while, then tightened his fingers holding the teacup slightly: "Yes."

Lin Yi lowered his head and smiled, with a three-point self-deprecating smile and three-point understanding: "Okay, so that's how it is."

Lin Yi didn't say a word until he returned to the palace, and his expression was a little cold. The palace people felt that he was in a bad mood. The cat on the corridor asked him to stop for a while. On the top of his head, the soft and warm touch of fur made him relax a little.

Shao Chongyou was sent by King Jingyang Xiao Fang from the beginning. It took Lin Yi a lot of time to treat him from being dubious at the beginning to becoming a friend later. This dark chess has never been used. Lin Yi didn't know that Shao Chongyou No matter what I thought at the time, I didn't know if I was wrong to trust.

I used to think that there was at least one trustworthy person, but today I was sure that during those days in northern Xinjiang, he was really surrounded by an isolated city, with no one around him.

It's obviously a thing of the past, but I'm still a little worried.

Xiao Huan came back late at night. He didn't want to disturb Lin Yi's rest. Hearing that Lin Yi was in a bad mood today, he quietly went to see him. Brows, and then turned back to the Highness to rest.

At dawn, Lin Yi's bad mood disappeared quickly, and he was alive and kicking when he opened his eyes. He told Xiao Huan about Shao Chongyou, and even joked a few words about himself.

At the court meeting, the Fourth Prince Xiao Fang, who had been in trouble recently, finally lost his composure.

Song Xingfang was killed as soon as he brought up the memorial, and was buried with Xiao Fang's [-] hidden guards. Fortunately, there was no clue left. So far, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has not found him, but the Zhaowu army's ordnance hidden under the Song residence The military armor was temporarily sealed in the dark room, which became a taboo that could not be moved.

In Yundu Temple, Shao Chong was not surrounded and suppressed on the spot as he wished, nor was he fled away and was convicted and wanted. Now he is about to be interrogated by Lin Yi from the death row, but Lin Yi is just like teasing him. He always goes to the death row these days Dangling, wandering around only said that some progress has been made, and there is no formal arraignment.

Shao Chongyou was not dealt with for a long time, Xiao Anxin was still restless, and the people he sent failed to succeed, Shao Chongyou had already become a heart problem for him.

"What do you want to play?"

After all, Emperor Yongguang was getting older. He went out of the city to Yundu Temple and then to the palace. After tossing around, he couldn't sleep well. He was a little tired, but his spirit was never slack.

Hundreds of officials stood in the Fengtian Palace, King Jingyang Xiao Fang stepped forward and saluted: "I heard that a month ago, the little prince of the Yuezhi Kingdom was injured by a fleeing rebellious army. Not to be underestimated."

Emperor Yongguang frowned: "The rebellious army? The gang from Yinping County?"

Xiao Fang nodded: "Exactly."

Lin Yi wanted to laugh a little, Xiao Fang actually found out about the little curly-haired Ulanka, but Xiao Huan dealt with it in a timely manner at the time, Xiao Fang couldn't find out the details, so he could only talk about it roughly.

Emperor Yongguang looked at Xiao Huan again: "I remember that the chaos in Yinping County was finally resolved by Jiangzhou Camp."

Xiao Huan nodded slightly, and said lightly: "That's right."

Xiao Fang said again: "Yinping County is still under the jurisdiction of Dingyuan Army, so it doesn't matter. The chaos has dragged on for too long, the state government is responsible, and Dingyuan Army can't get away with it."

When Lin Yi heard this, he knew that it was difficult for Xiao Fang to determine who was against him recently, so he started with Dingyuan Army, who had the most suspicion and the most clear grievances.

The prince was listening with a complicated expression, feeling something.

Emperor Yongguang said in a deep voice: "It's not unreasonable to have to end the affairs of the Dingyuan Army with the presence of the Jiangzhou Camp."

Xiao Fang looked sad, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty, according to Erchen's opinion, the copper talisman laws are very special and are not easily enforced, but now it is time to use the copper talisman to rectify the army. If you want to fight outside, you must first settle inside. I don't know clearly, what would it look like if foreign enemies invaded?"

Lin Yi and Xiao Huan were played by him, but the prince remained silent for a while. He always followed the will of Emperor Yongguang to support the copper talisman law, and Xiao Fang agreed with his position this time, but the prince really didn't want to speak like this take a stand.

The hall was silent for a while, Emperor Yongguang didn't expect that something happened to Song Xingfang, and someone in the court dared to mention the bronze amulet so soon, and this person was his son who had never supported this order.

"That's right. Dingyuan's army has accumulated evils for a long time, and this matter can be seen." Emperor Yongguang said after pondering.

Xiao Fang looked calm, and then said: "Then take the lead in promoting the Sparrow Talisman and rectify the Dingyuan Army, it should be the top priority."

The courtiers talked in low voices, and many secretly looked at the expressions of Lin Yi and Xiao Huan, and saw that the two were calm and calm, as if the Sparrow Talisman and the Dingyuan Army had nothing to do with the Zhaowu Army and Ghost Army in their hands.

Some courageous ones knew that this was a good time to gamble, and immediately stepped forward to support King Jingyang Xiao Fang: "The minister seconded the proposal, and once the sparrow talisman is released, the Dingyuan army can gather their hearts, and they will no longer be scattered and disorderly."

Lin Yi turned a deaf ear, his eyes wandered on the intricate carvings on the jade steps, and he thought to himself that if it hadn't been for the right to withdraw troops a while ago and use the Dingyuan army to take the knife, why would the Dingyuan army have anything to do with the word "scattered".

However, several generals of the Dingyuan Army had just left, and no one spoke up to refute, the voices gradually increased, and the opinions were unanimous, like a tide.

Under the rush of the tide, Emperor Yongguang finally raised his hand: "That's it, cast the sparrow talisman, the Dingyuan army is not allowed to order the sparrow talisman, and you must not arbitrarily move more than a thousand soldiers."

The Three Bronze Orders have finally come true since the beginning of the rumors, but they are just a sparrow charm aimed at the Dingyuan Army. Marquis Liejun Lin Yi and General Fengdu didn't say anything, and the ministers who wanted to oppose had to keep silent.

With the conclusion of this matter, the atmosphere in the court suddenly sank a bit.

After the court was over, the palace servants came up and said, "Master Hou, General, Your Majesty has a request."

Lin Yi and Xiao Huan looked at each other, and followed the palace people to see Emperor Yongguang.

"There are two reasons for staying with you. One is about the sparrow talisman. The two lovers have not spoken, so what are they thinking?" Emperor Yongguang motioned them to sit down.

Lin Yi smiled brightly: "I have always said what I said, and I didn't say anything because all the adults are very reasonable, so I don't need to say anything."

Xiao Huan said calmly: "Your Majesty knows more about the Dingyuan Army than I do."

Emperor Yongguang was very satisfied with this answer, and said with a smile: "The Dingyuan army needs to be rectified urgently, and this is imperative."

Lin Yi still did not express his position, and nodded with a modest smile. Some detours must be taken, because persuasion is useless, and everyone can only stumble and eat a few mouthfuls of mud before they understand that food is better than muddy water.

Emperor Yongguang looked at Lin Yi: "The second thing has to do with you. Lin Yi, the widow and Concubine Luo have always regarded you as their own child. Now that you have entered the court, the so-called marriage and career, Qi Shangshu has mentioned to the widow these days. In other words, the only daughter in his family is the only one in Jinling, Concubine Luo feels appropriate after hearing this, what do you think of this matter?"

Emperor Yongguang's words were considered tactful, one was because Xiao Huan was present at the side, and the other was that it was Qi You's father who mentioned it first after all, so at least we couldn't make the meaning of the girl's family too straightforward.

The matter of the sparrow order put a heavy atmosphere on the whole palace. As soon as these words came out, Lin Yi couldn't laugh or cry. Xiao Huan was by the side to watch the excitement. Lin Yi glanced at the peach blossom eyes under his mask, There was a faint glimpse of a smile in his eyes.

Qi You is rumored to be the best candidate to marry Seventh Prince Xiao Huan, but now Qi Shangshu wants Lin Yi to be his son-in-law.

Lin Yi immediately declined with a salute: "Your Majesty and the ministers who care about you understand, but this is impossible. I already have a sweetheart."

Emperor Yongguang said strangely: "Oh? That's strange, the Qi family's affairs will not force you, who is it, tell me, do you need someone to marry you?"

Lin Yi shook his head, bowed his head and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, I... cherish it so much that I dare not speak nonsense."

He thought to himself, if Emperor Yongguang knew that he was looking for his son, he would definitely regret the word "referring to marriage".
