Unparalleled Concubine

"I tell you, you have done a lot of evil!"

Li Shen frowned, and said, "No matter how much karma there is, Li Shen will only have one Li Shen, and it's just death, so what's more?"

Li Xin gave Li Shen a cold look, and said with a sneer, "You're still so self-righteous."

"You came to the capital to seek death, thinking that you are righteous and like a hero, don't you?"

The former Great General of Zhu Kingdom was silent.

After a long time, he said, "What do you mean?"

"Remember Li Ye, Li Ye, the former Jingzhao Yin of the Jingzhao Mansion, should be your cousin, the general."

"In the first year of Taikang, Pingnanhou's mansion was flooded, and Pingnanhou and his wife were killed in the fire. At that time, there was almost no one in the capital. Risky, bring your son to Pingnanhou's mansion, and deal with the funeral affairs for Pingnanhou and his wife."

Li Shen is a smart person, he doesn't need Li Xin to speak clearly, just hearing such a name, he already roughly understands what happened, so he frowned deeply.

"What happened to him?"

"General Li thinks something should happen to him?"

Lord Jing'an sneered and said: "Your family fled to the southwest, and everyone who had to go, even you, General Li, died two years ago. There is no chicken to warn you about this rebellion case." What does General Li think His Majesty will do about those monkeys?"

"Li Ye's family was imprisoned two days ago, and soon everyone will be publicly beheaded!"

Li Shen closed his eyes in pain.

To be honest, although Li Ye was his cousin, the two families were not very close because of their civil and military affairs. They were so far apart that when Li Shen decided to rebel, he even forgot that he still had such a cousin in the capital. .

After a long time, Li Shen opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

"I am sorry for them, but at this time, there is nothing I can do."

"If there is a next life, I will repay them."

Li Xin gave the middle-aged man a disdainful glance, then glanced at Mrs. Yu who was peeking not far away, and said coldly, "What should you do, your original wife?"

Li Shen looked calm and said, "If I leave, she will go with me."

Li Xin didn't speak, just stood up directly, and was about to leave with his hands behind his back.

"When you go underground, no one will burn paper for you."

"If Huang Quan really exists, don't go to see my mother, she will be angry when she sees you."

Having said this, Lord Jing'an turned around and was about to leave.

Li Shen didn't move at first, but in the end he couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Can you...can you save them?"

Li Xin stopped and didn't look back.

"Who do you think I am, how can I save them, rob the court?"

Li Shen took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Li Xin.

"Even if I can leave an incense seed for their family..."

Chapter 626

The people of Zhu Xia have a very strange consensus, that is, their individual lives are often integrated into a collective life, and the "identity" of this collective is generally the family.

People in the family sometimes don't value their own lives too much. As long as the family can benefit, or can continue better, these people will go through fire and water seriously, and will not hesitate.

Even in the eyes of outsiders, even if a family is completely dead, as long as there is only one incense descendant left, then this "collective life" will not die, at most it will just decline.

Because of this "consensus", there was even a tradition of "survival and extinction" among countries in the Spring and Autumn Period. It would not be easy to cut off the blood of a family, and even after personally destroying a country, it would help the descendants of this country to re-establish the clan. temple.

Therefore, in Li Shen's eyes, even if Li Ye's family died, there should be a little incense left behind, which cannot be completely extinguished.

This is the bottom line.

Therefore, self-esteem is the most important thing in his life. Even if he made a big mistake at the beginning, Li Shen, who did not bow his head to Li Xin and admit his mistake a few years ago, now begged Li Xin to help Li Ye's family leave a bloodline in an almost pleading tone.

Li Xin stopped walking towards the gate of the yard, and finally continued to walk, without responding, but went back to the princess's yard to rest.

Early the next morning, Li Xin deliberately got up half an hour earlier. After standing for an hour, the sky had just dawned. He asked Chen Shiliu to prepare a carriage and waited at the back door, and then he personally Go to the gate of Li Shen's courtyard and pick up the former general of the Zhu Kingdom.

When leaving the courtyard, Madam Yu followed. Although she didn't speak, she looked at Li Xin with pleading eyes.

Li Shen patted her on the shoulder, and said in relief: "Don't worry, I just went to see my old friend, and I will come back to accompany you later."

Madam Yu's eyes were slightly red, but she finally nodded feebly.

Now, they live under the fence, and they are the fish and meat on the table. Whether they are willing or not, it is the difference between thumping on the chopping board or not.

Meaningless.

Li Shen easily got into the carriage that Li Xin had prepared for him, and then, under the protection of twenty or thirty Habayashi guards, left the city from the east gate of the capital and rushed to Zhaoling.

Zhaoling is about 20 miles northeast of the capital, and it will take more than an hour for a horse-drawn carriage to drive there.

The father and son were sitting in the carriage, Li Xin closed his eyes and said nothing, but the former General Zhu Guo looked relaxed. When he was about to leave the city gate, he suddenly said: "I am here to see friends, no How about going empty-handed and buying me a jar of wine and some paper money for incense sticks?"

Li Xin didn't open his eyes, but said lightly: "Sixteen, take someone to buy for him."

Chen Shiliu only had one arm left, so it was very inconvenient to do things, so he had to take someone with him when shopping.

After a while, he and a Habayashi guard bought the things back and put them in the carriage. The carriage started slowly again and drove towards the east city gate.

This carriage was the carriage of Jing'an Marquis Mansion, and the soldiers guarding the city were the most colorful, so no one dared to stop it. The carriage went out of the East City Gate smoothly, and Li Xin didn't say much along the way.

On the contrary, Li Shen spoke first.

This serious middle-aged man who had always kept a straight face was surprisingly relaxed at this time.

"Guess how many people are staring at us from behind the carriage?"

Li Xin closed his eyes and did not answer.

Li Shen was not embarrassed, but continued to ask.

"You made such a great contribution this time, what kind of official did the emperor give you?"

Li Xin opened his eyes and glanced at Li Shen.

"Prince Taishi, Minister of the Ministry of War."

Li Shen took a deep breath and said slowly, "The emperor treats you so favorably, do you feel uneasy?"
