Chapter 656 Conversation in the other courtyard
Outside the city of Chang'an, outside a courtyard, Ding Yi brought a team of [-] to visit an old friend!
Liu Yi fell into the hole he dug for him in the past few days, and Ding Yi didn't have the nerve to disturb him.

And...maybe...maybe...Ding Yi will end up destroying flowers with his hands!

This other courtyard belongs to a pair of mother-in-law and grandson, I really don't know if it should be called coincidence or fate!

The people guarding the door are You Xiaowei's people, they were ordered to guard here, the purpose is not to block the people in the mansion from contacting the outside, but to monitor.

The housekeeper asked the master for instructions, and welcomed Ding Yi in. Walking in this empty courtyard, he felt a sense of desolation.

The scenery of the other courtyard is still good, but because there are few people to take care of it, it looks a bit dazzling!
Walk through the long corridor, pass through the front hall, and come to the garden in the backyard.In this small garden, the scenery is very different from the front.

The neatly trimmed trees, a sea of ​​colorful flowers, and the row of potted plants cut out in various shapes on the steps are obviously carefully taken care of by someone.

And this person, with a bamboo hat on his head and a hoe in his hand, was digging the soil beside the sea of ​​flowers.

"I didn't expect you to have such a hobby now!" Ding Yi didn't go out, he was under the roof now, and he didn't experience roasting people!

The man who looked like an old farmer didn't stop, but a young but unenthusiastic voice came out: "Haha~ so what if I don't? You're so chic, the world is as big as you want!"

Although he said it with a smile, he could hear the helplessness and hatred in the other party's words. At such a young age, he could only stay in this yard and wait to die.

"The general trend is beyond your control." Ding Yi sighed, he couldn't feel the other person's feelings, but he could see the man's dullness and depression from the scene in front of him.

bang ~ bang ~
In the silent garden, there was only the sound of the hoe colliding with the ground. After a long while, the man straightened up and walked towards Ding Yi. He picked up the teapot on the step table and took two sips. He stretched out his arm and didn't care. Wiping his mouth, he asked, "Are you here to see me?"

The other party's words were full of sarcasm, obviously the other party did not think that Ding Yi had such kind intentions.

Ding Yi didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "You think too much! I came to see you for something!"

The other party didn't expect him to be so direct. He was obviously stunned for a moment, and then laughed at himself: "That's right, how can a person like me deserve to be visited by you, the hot Mr. Shi Ping. Tell me, what can you do with me!"

Ding Yi pondered for a moment, as if he was making a final decision. He was not sure whether it was right to seek this person, but this method was the fastest, most effective and at the same time the most dangerous!
"I need you to do me a favor!"

"Huh?" The man looked at Ding Yi suspiciously, feeling that he was deaf.

Ding Yi guessed that the other party didn't believe him, so he directly offered his own conditions: "You heard me right, I need your help! You can refuse, but before you refuse, you should listen to my conditions!"

The man was very reluctant, looked at the sea of ​​flowers in the garden, and said temptingly: "I don't think I have anything to help you! Could it be that you are dissatisfied with your emperor? Although I failed to rebel , but I also have some experience, do you want to listen to it?"

The butler standing in the front hall trembled when he heard these words, and almost fell to the ground in fright.

Ding Yi said with a smile: "Don't use such useless means, promise to help me, and I will let Elder Sun come once!"

The man was silent, obviously he knew why the other party asked Mr. Sun to come.He pinched the lid of the teapot and knocked it up and down. Finally, he stood up, looked directly at Ding Yi, and said with emotion: "I have to say, you can catch my weakness every time! But I don't seem to have any." What is the reason to reject you!"

Ding turned around and left. When he reached the door, he turned around and said, "Mr. Sun will come tomorrow, and someone will tell you what to do at the same time!"

……

This other courtyard was used by the emperor to imprison those who could not be directly killed or imprisoned, and their identities were very special.There are several other courtyards like this outside Chang'an City.

The one behind him was used to imprison Yang Zhengdao!
The reason why Yang Zhengdao agreed to Ding Yi was because the Empress Dowager Xiao had been in poor health since she came to Chang'an, especially after meeting Li Yuan in Da'an Palace, she was even worse!
Maybe it's because the two old people recalled the things when they were young, and they were extremely sad and caused symptoms.Perhaps seeing that the former retainer turned into an old man who was in charge of the family but locked up by a foolish son, he thought of ridiculous things, pulled those loose threads, and the desire to live became less strong. Only then fell ill.

Therefore, when Ding Yi asked Sun Simiao to come, he immediately agreed!If there is anyone in the world who can save his grandmother, only Sun Simiao!
And the one in the palace obviously didn't care about the life and death of a former empress dowager, and even hoped that she would die quickly.

As for what Ding Yi wants him to do, this is beyond his consideration. He is already an insider, hopeless all his life, what else can he lose?
Therefore, he wanted his grandmother to live even more!

……

Sun Simiao went to the other courtyard the next day, and brought what Ding Yi asked him to do, but he hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed at himself.Now that it looks like this, do you still care about what those people do?
This incident reached the emperor's ears that night.If Yang Zhengdao can live there with confidence, he must have monitored it.

It's just that he couldn't figure out the reason why Ding Yi did this for a while, even though it was in his interest!
But it was the old eunuch beside him who reminded him.

What Ding Yi did seems to be related to the incident three years ago!

But he couldn't figure out why Ding Yi did this!

……

New city
Li Tai has already returned to his post, but Xue Jian has not returned. She was left in the palace by Empress Changsun, perhaps because she wanted to see her future daughter-in-law, or perhaps because of the overflowing maternal love.

It's just that these are not very important to Ding Yi!
On the night of the fight with Li Tai and Li Chengqian, Ding Yi and Xuejian had a long talk. Although the girl was a little vague, it could be seen that she still had a good impression of Li Tai.

Despite the frustration, Ding Yi still chooses to support this matter.

It was Ding Yi's wish to let him be just such a younger sister and support her for no reason!
Everyone is busy with their own work, and Ding Yi is also busy.

Busy with that matter, busy with the 5 people rushing to the new city!
After these people are settled, he has to find a way to get another 3 people from other places, so as to ensure that one day a year later, he will not collapse on the bed!

Just want to get 3 people, and they will definitely not be prisoners of East Turks or Goguryeo. Chang'an will definitely not agree.
