Unparalleled Concubine

But he knocked around just now, but didn't find any secret door.

He sat down, his voice calm.

"I don't know if you can hear it or not, it's all as if you can hear it."

Li Xin closed his eyes, and said in a clear voice, "Today, the higher-ups are holding your funeral. That is to say, from today onwards, you and your wife are already dead."

"Don't worry, whether you are here or not, I will not find someone to dig this cellar."

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Li Xin's mouth: "If you are really here, then today I will spare your life and give back the life you gave me. From now on, you and I will have complaints and grudges. revenge."

"Whether you can escape from the capital depends on your ability, and I won't stop you."

After saying these words, Li Xinxin felt a lot better. He stood up, glanced left and right at the empty cellar, and smiled: "Li Shen, you..."

"Life is really boring."

After saying this, Li Xin climbed up along the same path.

After he left the cellar for a stick of incense, somewhere in the cellar, there was an unharmonious sound.

It was as if a jade pendant had been smashed into pieces.

Chapter 433

Among the three imperial guards of the emperor, the one closest to the emperor will always be the inner guard guarding Miyagi. After reorganizing the inner guard, the new emperor still chose to trust the inner guard more.

That's how the ass decides the head.

Therefore, this time the emperor Taikang sent to the north to arrest people was still the inner guard.

The Zheng family of Xingyang, the Cui family of Boling, the Yang family of Hongnong, the Li family of Zhaojun, the Lu family of Fanyang, etc., were all arrested this time, and a full third of the three thousand inner guards were sent out. , rushed to various families to arrest people.

However, Li Xin didn't have any good expectations for this operation, because he knew very well that these people were determined to overthrow Emperor Taikang.

Every aristocratic family is the local emperor, and they have the final say on a continent or even a county. These people live together and raise private soldiers openly and aboveboard in the name of village bravery.

It is obviously not enough for a thousand people to catch them.

But this is not about Li Xin's business. It will take at least one or two months or even longer for the inner guard to go back and forth to the north. What he has to do now is to wait and see what happens, and secondly, to control as many imperial troops as possible.

In this world, everything is fake, only fists and swords are fake, and if you have strength in your fists, others will be able to convince you.

In the next ten days or so, Li Xin often went back and forth between the capital and the imperial army. During this time, he replaced two Zhechong captains. People who use the forbidden army to the right battalion.

After all, if Li Xin wanted to lead them, he had to consider their own ideas.

In a blink of an eye, it was November of the first year of Taikang.

It's getting colder.

In the past half a month, Nanjiang sent news one after another, saying that Li Shen had been active in Nanjiang, which made Emperor Taikang quite annoyed, but the inner guards sent to those aristocratic families to arrest people have not yet returned.

At this time, Li Xin was returning to the capital from the Forbidden Army camp for "vacation". He was reading and drinking tea in the study of the Hou Mansion of Jing'an. So he got into the study and refused to come out.

Li Xin's Marquis' Mansion was originally Qi Wang's Mansion, His Highness Qi Wang was a good reader and also liked to collect books, so there were so many books in the study that Zhao Jia almost forgot to sleep and eat.

The dark-faced Mu Ying knocked on the door.

Li Xin glanced back at Zhao Jia, who was unresponsive, and had no choice but to stand up by himself, and went to open the door.

Mu Ying walked in, spit out a mouthful of white mist.

It is already winter now, and white water vapor will be spit out between breaths.

Li Xin took him to the fireplace in the study, threw a piece of animal charcoal into it, and said with a smile, "Brother Mu, what's the matter?"

Mu Ying sat by the stove and warmed her hands, then took out a letter from her sleeve, bowed her head and said, "A letter from my old man to Lord Hou."

The last time there was news about Li Shen in southern Xinjiang, Li Xin asked Muying to ask his family members. It was only half a month ago. In just half a month, Li Xin was quite surprised by the reply. .

You know, it takes nearly a month for people to travel from the capital city to Shu County, let alone a round trip?

Seeing Li Xin's eyes, Mu Ying chuckled: "The three horses ran alternately, for fear of missing the Lord's business."

Li Xin shook his head slightly.

He had already guessed that Li Shen was probably still in the Pingnanhou Mansion, so the reply from the Mu family was actually irrelevant, but this matter could not be revealed, so he lowered his head and opened the letter without saying a word.

After briefly reading the letter, Li Xin nodded.

"I guessed correctly, Li Shen is indeed not in Southern Border."

The Pingnan General's Mansion in Southern Xinjiang has a cooperative relationship with those survivors of Southern Shu. If Li Shen really returned to Southern Xinjiang, it is impossible for the Mu family not to know.

After reading it, Li Xin casually threw the letter into the stove, and with an orange flame, the letter sent to the capital at a great cost was turned into fly ash.

"I'll write a letter to Uncle Mu, and you can find a way to send it to Mu's house."

Mu Ying patted her chest.

"no problem."

He can be regarded as a moderate official in Dajin now, no matter what he says or does, he is much tougher than before.

Li Xin returned to his desk, rubbed the ink to write a letter, dried the ink, and handed it to Mu Ying, then looked back at Zhao Jia who was still watching, and sighed helplessly: "I If you want to go out for a trip, you should be more careful and don't let outsiders intercept this letter."

Mu Ying lowered her head and said, "Don't worry, who dares to intercept Yu Linwei's messenger?"

Li Xin glanced at Mu Ying, and asked in a low voice, "Have you brought the Mu family into the Habayashi Guard?"

Mu Ying chuckled: "Didn't Lord Hou agree to this matter?"

At the beginning, when Li Xin had a long talk with Mu Qing, he mentioned this matter, that is to slowly transfer the Mu family in southern Xinjiang, and find a job for the Mu family's children in the Yulin Guard. Now Mu Ying can say He is the top speaker of Habayashi, of course he can bring people into Habayashi.

Emperor Taikang didn't allow Habayashi guards to guard the gate, probably for this reason.

Li Xin shook his head and said in a low voice, "Be careful yourself, don't make too much publicity,"

"Don't worry, I know."

Mu Ying bowed her head and said: "The humble staff knows how to measure, and only brought three brothers from the clan into the Habayashi Guard, and they are all ordinary Habayashi soldiers. The purpose is to facilitate communication. Otherwise, it will never be trustworthy to use outsiders."

Li Xin patted Mu Ying on the shoulder.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want you to pay attention."

With that said, Li Xin put on a thick robe and was about to go out. As soon as the door opened, a chill came over his face.
