Unparalleled Concubine

It has always been the harbinger of a dynasty change when powerful ministers clean up the clan!

But now that he is living under the fence, Emperor Yankang has no way to resist. He read Li Xin's memorial book in his hand, then sighed slightly, and said to Li Xin: "Everything in the capital is said by the grand master." Forget it, since the Grand Tutor wants to do something, why bother to ask me..."

Taifu Li lowered his head slightly: "Your Majesty is still sitting on the throne for a day, and the dignity that should be given to His Majesty must still be given. The imperial family is not in the national law of the Jin Dynasty, but only in the family law of Your Majesty. Please let Your Majesty decide."

Emperor Yankang remained silent.

After a long time, he picked up the vermilion pen on the table, and with trembling hands, wrote the word "Zhaozhun" on the memorial book. Then the young emperor picked up the jade seal on the table with difficulty, Covered with a bright red red seal.

After this seal was stamped, the death of the Ji family in the capital would be reasonable and legal.

What Emperor Yankang didn't know was that before Li Xin entered the palace, many of the Ji family members who were killed in his memorial had already been killed.

After Li Xin received the memorial with the emperor's seal, he cupped his hands to the emperor and said, "It's already getting late, I will take my leave if I don't disturb your Majesty's rest."

Emperor Yankang got up silently, his voice hoarse: "I... send the grand tutor."

"Don't dare to work Your Majesty."

Li Xin lowered his head slightly: "Your Majesty rested earlier, and the minister is leaving."

After finishing speaking, Li Xin took two steps back, then turned and left Weiyang Palace.

The Son of Heaven sat on the throne, did not get up, silently looked at Li Xin's back, gritted his teeth secretly.

"Today he came to see me in the palace with those memorials that killed my people, and I don't know whose memorials he will bring to the palace in the future..."

Xiao Huai, the great eunuch standing next to Emperor Yankang, bowed his head deeply, and said: "Your Majesty, slave... still has some contacts in the capital. As far as slaves know, Taifu Li was indeed assassinated when he entered Beijing yesterday. ..."

Emperor Yankang turned his head and glanced at Xiao Huai, and laughed at himself: "I am in the deep palace, so of course you can do whatever you say, even Mr. Xiao, you are also the person sent by the Taifu to my side, aren't you?"

Xiao Huai shook his head slightly, sighed and said: "It is true that the maidservant has been allowed by Taifu Li to serve His Majesty by his side, but... the Southwest Army has entered Beijing for half a year, and the maidservant has not sent a word to Taifu Li..."

Emperor Yankang sneered slightly, stood up directly, and went back to the bedroom.

Xiao Huai, who was standing beside the emperor, was silent.

In fact, he didn't lie. The southwestern army entered Beijing for half a year. He, the chief eunuch next to the new emperor, didn't disclose any information about the emperor of Yankang to Li Xin, not even half a word.

It's not about how loyal and courageous this former internal servant and young supervisor is, but because Li Xin... didn't ask.

Now the internal guards in the imperial city are managed by the Anbu under Li Xin's command. The guards of the entire imperial city are firmly in Li Xin's hands. The Son of Heaven cannot escape his palm.

In this case, the Emperor Yankang, who is nominally superior, is actually not very important. What he says and does is irrelevant to Li Xin and the Southwest Army.

After walking out of Weiyang Palace, it was completely dark.

Li Xin held the stamped memorandum in his hand, and threw it to Zhao Fang who was waiting outside the palace, his voice was a little cold: "You take Habayashi Wei to investigate this matter to the end, as long as it involves In this case, if one arrests the other, there is no need to go through the Jingzhao Mansion and the Sanfa Division, and if someone obstructs them, just show them this memorial."

Speaking of this, Li Xin was silent for a while, and said silently: "Whether it's arresting people or killing people, give these royal families some dignity, don't humiliate them."

Zhao Fang took the memorandum with both hands, respectfully said: "Your subordinate obeys!"

After all, he took dozens of Habayashi guards behind him and went down to do business.

In the dark, Li Xin walked alone in the imperial city.

It was already approaching April, and the weather in the capital was gradually warming up, but it was still chilly in the morning and evening. When the night wind blew, Li Xin tightened his clothes tightly, feeling a little cold.

He walked out of Yong'an Gate, only to see Li Shuo still kneeling at the door of Yong'an Gate, without getting up.

Li Xin walked past Li Shuo, and said in a muffled voice, "You don't need to pretend to be pitiful to me, the majestic General Wei."

After finishing speaking, he went straight into his carriage and said to the driver, "Go to the east of the city."

The coachman nodded and said yes. The carriage drove slowly on the streets of the capital under the moonlight. It was only in the middle of the night that it left the East Gate and stopped at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain in the northeast of the capital.

Li Xin got off the carriage and looked up at the mountain in the night.

Here, also called Beishan, is the place where he first came to this world.

At the foot of the mountain, Li Xin found a tomb that was not particularly tall, but it had been well repaired.

This is his uncle's tomb. After Li Enfeng became the Marquis, he personally found the craftsman, cleaned up the original earthen tomb, and buried the charcoal thief nearby.

Li Xin went forward, without any wine, and sat quietly in front of the tombstone, dazed.

This place... can be said to be the place where he was born again, and the person who brought him to the capital is buried in the tomb.

Today, the uncle and the charcoal seller are still lying quietly in the grave.

And Li Taifu sitting in front of the tombstone, and the charcoal seller more than ten years ago, it seems... is not the same person.

Chapter 1150 Do business with partners

In the next few days, under Zhao Fang's investigation, thousands of clans in the capital were implicated in the assassination of the Grand Tutor, and most of them were executed by the Habayashi guards.

When the matter reached this scale, it was obvious that the number of people connected by Ji Lin had exceeded, but as Li Xin's brother-in-law, the new Habayashi Nakaro spared no effort to track down Zhao Fang, but he borrowed everything that had anything to do with the case. Take the prison with the seal of the emperor.

In just a few days, the clans in the capital have already changed their faces when they mentioned Zhao Fang.

In the end, Li Xin greeted Zhao Fang and signaled him to stop here.

After this incident, although there are still tens of thousands of clans in the capital, no one dares to say that the imperial court is wrong. After leaving Yonglefang, he fled far away.

There are also some distant branches of the royal family, who do not have much industrial status other than the surname Ji, simply try to escape from the capital, change their names and surnames, and no longer have the same surname as the emperor.

For these actions, Li Xin did not stop them and allowed them to escape.

The Ji family who changed their surnames is no longer the Ji family.

On the fifth day of the assassination, Li Xin hosted a banquet in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and invited all the three giants of the Southwest to his home.

The banquet was held in the backyard of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and there were only four low tables and four futons, which meant that only the four of them were eligible to eat this meal.

It is not so much a banquet as it is a meeting.

Zhao Jia and the other three arrived early, and sat behind the low table in an orderly manner, waiting for Li Xin.

After this assassination case, the relationship between the three of them and Li Xin became a little rusty. Of course, this is not a good thing, but it is not all a bad thing.

In the past, Li Xin and the three of them had a superior-subordinate relationship, but more of a relationship between friends and brothers. When Li Xin talked to the three of them, most of the time they talked in a soft voice and discussed slowly.

But after this incident, the relationship between their friends became more distant, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates became much clearer. In the past, the four of them were like partners, but now they finally feel a little like "lord and minister".

The three sat beside the low table, waiting quietly for a stick of incense, and then saw Li Xin in a blue robe approaching. The three stood up quickly and bowed to Li Xin: "Subordinate...see you Overlord."

Li Xin walked to his low table and sat down, then waved to the three people: "You're welcome, sit down and talk."
