They all say I'm a tyrant

Contrary to everyone's expectations, You You, who has always been sensitive and uneasy, trusts Lin Xiu, who has never met before, and falls asleep curled up in her arms not long after.Lin Xiu gently brushed the broken hair off her face, and beckoned to her court lady, signaling her to take the child to rest.

You You moved uneasily in the maid's arms, but still couldn't resist the drowsiness, and fell asleep again after raising his eyelids.Gao Yong followed behind Lin Xiu, and said softly, "The little princess has been guarding Your Majesty's bed for the past few days, neither talking nor sleeping, and always wiping tears quietly when we can't see her. Now she finally slept for a while, Otherwise, the maidservant is really worried that she will get sick again at such a young age."

Lin Xiu sighed softly: "He is a caring child." As she spoke, she tucked the quilt up for the sleeping Lin Ce, "I heard that there is a younger child?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Gao Yong replied, "The excuse is that the little princess is sick and is afraid of infecting the young master, so I asked the nanny to take him to live in the side hall. There are people taking care of him in daily life, and the servants will also go to watch him every day. , you don't have to worry."

"How long has it been since the secret letter was sent out?" She lowered her head and fiddled with the beads on her wrist, "Is there any movement from General You?" She suddenly raised her head as she spoke, "Although I sent those people away just now, I'm gone, but if Brother Huang stays awake like this, even if I'm here, sooner or later I won't be able to hide it."

Speaking of this, she glanced outside: "Although the figure and voice of Mr. Lin are somewhat similar to the emperor's brother, they are not the same after all. The scene just now, if he hadn't deliberately lowered his voice to pretend to be After waking up, those few people have average ranks, and there are not many opportunities to get in close contact with the imperial brother on weekdays. In addition, this palace is deliberately intimidating, so that they don't have time to think about it. I'm afraid they have already exposed their trap. Although temporarily fooled Yes, but the person who poisoned him will definitely find a way to test it out, once he confirms that the emperor's brother has indeed been tricked, and take the opportunity to make trouble, I am a woman, and there is no way to resist."

"On the day when His Majesty was poisoned, the secret letter was sent to the southwest. In order to be on the safe side, His Majesty, in addition to sending a courier to go the official route, also sent another secret guard to travel secretly, so as to avoid encounters on the road. Unexpectedly, the secret letter could not reach the southwest smoothly." Gao Yong thought, "According to the time estimate, it should have arrived long ago. As for whether General You can receive the letter and whether he can come back smoothly, it really depends on the destiny."

"Destiny? My Lin family is the master of this world, and the destiny is in our hands." Lin Xiu smiled slightly, and then the smile slowly faded away.She sat down on the side of the bed again, and looked intently at Lin Ce on the bed, "How's the investigation of the poisoner going?"

"Your Highness, according to the imperial doctor, the poison His Majesty suffered was not acute, and it was not poisoned within a day or two, so it is impossible to find out when and what food was eaten that poisoned His Majesty. All the slaves and servants have personally tested the poison of what His Majesty said. In particular, General You wrote a secret letter earlier, saying that someone in Beijing intends to do something wrong to His Majesty, reminding His Majesty to be more careful. And recently, Your Majesty and Xiao The princess eats together every day, if there is really something wrong with the food, there is absolutely no reason for His Majesty to be poisoned." Gao Yong frowned and said, "This servant feels that this matter is full of doubts, and I want to investigate it further, but His Majesty's current situation, I am afraid that the servants will leak the news if they act too aggressively, so they can only hold back and discuss this matter after His Majesty wakes up."

"The more this is the case, the more it means that the people behind this scene have all-hands and eyes, and under such strict guards, they can still poison the emperor." Lin Xiu raised her head and looked around the entire bedroom, "How many people are there in Changle Palace? Believe me, how many people have already become someone else's internal support."

Gao Yong saluted Lin Xiu: "No matter what, it's the negligence of the slave girl. The slave girl will investigate secretly in the palace first, and control anyone who is suspicious."

Lin Xiu nodded lightly: "Don't move too much, first investigate secretly." Speaking of this, she sighed softly, "That's all we can do. I don't know when Brother Huang will wake up. , I can only hope that General You can receive the secret letter smoothly and come back soon."

As twilight gradually approached, the sky gradually dimmed, night enveloped the imperial city, all the hustle and bustle of the day dissipated, leaving only endless loneliness.

Gao Yong brought a cup of hot tea to Lin Xiu who was still guarding in front of the bed: "Your Highness, it's late at night, you have been guarding for a whole day, it's time to go back and rest."

Lin Xiu glanced at You You who was curled up at the foot of the bed, hugging her gray rabbit. She slept in the daytime, and after waking up, she stood by the bed again, didn't say much, just hugged the rabbit, He looked at Lin Ce eagerly.Lin Xiu stretched out her hand and patted her head: "I'll wait a little longer, but it's time for Youyou to go to sleep."

Gao Yong carefully looked at Lin Xiu's face, and said in a low voice: "My servant knows that Your Highness is worried about His Majesty, but you must also pay attention to your health. After all... I don't know how long this kind of life will last."

Lin Xiu lowered her eyes, stretched out her arms to hug You You, who was sleepy and drowsy but still trying to keep her eyes open, You You approached Lin Xiu's arms, and said vaguely, "Aunt?"

"Well, my aunt is here, go to sleep." Lin Xiu patted her on the back lightly, carried her to the outside, and said to Gao Yong as she walked, "I naturally understand what you said, but today's Such a scene, I really don’t feel sleepy. Just looking at Yoyo, I can’t help but think of my childhood, when I was only her age, and my father was still alive, everyone knew that I was the apple of his eye, please let me coax me , to make me happy. But where I thought I didn’t know, it turned out to be a different face. Especially my favored elder brothers, in front of the father, looked like they pitied the younger sister, turned their faces, but laughed quietly I am a child without a mother. But only Brother Huang is different. With his taciturn personality, he will not please his father at all, and he can't say a few words to me, but he left school one day. When Brother Huang laughed at me again, he stopped him with words, and was beaten by them in the end."

As Lin Xiu spoke, her eyes shone brightly: "It is said that the Tian family has no family ties. I saw my elder brothers who killed each other for the throne believe this, but when I turned around and looked at the emperor brother, But I feel that there are still some. At least in his eyes, I am not some princess who needs to please, but his sister. Many things have happened this year. I... because of my own selfish desires, I made a big mistake, I never knew how to face him, but I never thought that we would meet again at this kind of time."

"Since they are brothers and sisters, the princess should know that His Majesty will not blame you."

A clear male voice suddenly sounded, waking Lin Xiu up from her thoughts. She turned her head suddenly and saw You Yan standing at the window. The window that blows cold air inward, walked in front of Lin Xiu, his eyes fell on her face, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Princess, don't come here without any harm."

"General You!" Gao Yong could be said to be ecstatic, after all, in the eyes of everyone, You Yan has always been omnipotent, as long as he is there, the predicament in front of him will definitely be solved.He hurriedly stepped forward to wait for You Yan to take off the sable fur, and poured another cup of hot tea, "It's dark and slippery today, why did you come in through the window?"

"I don't know what's going on in the palace now, and I dare not disturb anyone." You Yan took the hot tea and took a sip, "What's going on now?"

"The news of the poisoning of the emperor's brother has been concealed for the time being. Except for the people in this palace, no one knows about it. Today, a foreign minister asked to see him, and he was also temporarily bluffed." Lin Xiu glanced at You Yan, then lowered her eyes, not thinking about it. Looking at him, "It's also thanks to Mr. Lin, the general's best friend."

You Yan nodded slightly, and turned his gaze to Lin Jue who was standing beside him with a smile on his face.Seeing his eyes fall on himself, Lin Jue raised his lips again, and cupped his hands towards You Yan: "Brother You is finally back, I'm still waiting to drink tea and have a heart-to-heart talk with you."

You Yan took a few steps forward, and when he came in front of him, he suddenly bowed down and made a deep bow: "Brother Lin, today's kindness is unforgettable."

"Brother You's words are too far-fetched," Lin Jue stretched out his hand to help him up, "As a citizen of the Southern Wei Dynasty, some people tried to overthrow my court and deceive the king, and I can do my best. It's an honor. Besides, the Holy Majesty can trust me as a commoner in times of crisis, so how dare I let him down."

You Yan put his arm on his shoulder and said in a low voice: "Don't talk too much, when this matter is settled, the court will be safe, I will drink with you for three days, we will not return when we are not drunk!"

"Lin is looking forward to it."

After exchanging pleasantries with Lin Jue, You Yan looked at the people beside him, and finally stopped his eyes on Lin Xiu: "Although I have returned to the capital, I still cannot reveal my whereabouts. Someone tried every means to lure me to the southwest, and then Waiting for an opportunity to make trouble, so I can only hide in the dark to find out this person. Therefore, if there is any movement from the courtiers, the princess will still be in charge."

Lin Xiu nodded lightly: "Okay." After finishing speaking, she hesitated a little, "Then in the southwest..."

"The battle in the Southwest is over. Fan Kingdom has suffered the consequences and ended up in a state of subjugation. But the army still has to stay there to clean up the mess. As for me, they all think that I have caught the cold and am recuperating in the Southwest." You Yan said Here, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, "Only in this way, the people behind the scenes dare to act recklessly."

Only then did Lin Xiu raise her head and look at You Yan carefully. She hadn't seen this person for a long time, but she didn't remember him being so thin, especially his face, which was almost out of shape, obviously still sick. A pair of eyes, still bright.Lin Xiu felt a little worried: "Then, your body, General..."

"It's okay, I've survived the journey of thousands of miles, and I won't collapse at this moment." After speaking, You Yan covered his lips and coughed twice, and looked lovingly at Lin Xiu, who was sleeping soundly in Lin Xiu's arms. You You said to Gao Yong, "It's getting late, take your two Highnesses, and Brother Lin to rest."

As he spoke, he retracted the finger that was stretched out to touch Youyou's face, and finally turned his head and glanced at a direction he hadn't seen since he entered the palace: "I want to stay with Your Majesty alone .”
