The only time he mentioned it was because of those old brothers in Habayashi Weiri, but he was rejected miserably.

But today, there is finally a huge crack between the monarch and his ministers who have been in love for nearly ten years, which is so big that it can be clearly seen.

Lord Jing'an sat in his black carriage, and slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced back at the imperial city behind him, and let out a faint breath.

"His Royal Highness, it seems that we have all grown up."

………………

After returning home, it was already evening, Lord Jing'an was in a bad mood, and sat drinking alone under the pavilion in the backyard.

Zhao Jia, who was still dressed in white, walked over slowly, sat down opposite Li Xin, and sighed.

"What happened?"

Li Xin was thinking about something and didn't notice Zhao Jia. After hearing the voice, he looked up at Zhao Jia, and then laughed at himself: "It's a small matter, I had an argument with a friend."

Zhao Jia is a very careful person. Hearing this, his face changed slightly, and he asked tentatively, "...that friend?"

Li Xin didn't speak.

This white-clothed scholar who had been in the Southwest for five years poured himself a glass of wine and drank it down with his head raised.With a bitter smile, he said: "Li Changan, you are so dishonest. I have been with you for so many years, and I finally have to go out to be an official. You just quarreled with that person at this time. Then I will not have a good life in the future. ?”

"Maybe he was killed by bandits before he took office."

Li Xin was in a better mood after being disturbed by him, and laughed and scolded: "It's so serious, you should be your official, so just be your official, and it won't involve you."

Zhao Jia also made a joke with Li Xin. Seeing that Li Xin had returned to normal, he picked up the wine glass and clinked with Li Xin, and asked with a smile, "What happened?"

After Li Xin drank the glass of wine, he didn't mean to hide it from Zhao Jia, and spoke directly.

"Li Xing has come to the capital."

Zhao Jia frowned.

He has been in the Southwest for the past five years, and he did not live in Jincheng, the core of the Southwest, but in Hanzhou Mansion. Of course, he knew about the situation in Hanzhou Mansion, but when he left Hanzhou Mansion, Li The news of Xing's escape has not been spread yet, and he only now knows that His Royal Highness from Nanshu has arrived in the capital.

Zhao Jia was silent for a while, then took a deep breath, and asked cautiously, "Who... invited Li Xing into the capital?"

Li Xin nodded.

Zhao Jia smiled wryly and said: "Even so, we can sit down and think of a way, for example let this Li Xing die in the hands of bandits on the way back, etc., Hou Ye, you don't want to go with... that Are you arguing?"

Li Xin gave Zhao Jia a white look.

"I didn't go to fight with him."

Lord Jing'an poured himself a glass of wine, and said lazily, "I'll go and kill Li Xing."

Zhao Youan was dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at Li Xin, and asked in disbelief, "You...what did you say?"

"I said I'm going to kill Li Xing."

Seeing Zhao Jia's appearance, Li Xin said with a smile: "I went to kill it early in the morning. I did it myself. The clothes were still stained with Li Xing's blood. I came back at noon and changed my clothes." , Brother Youan, don’t you remember?”

As he spoke, Li Xin pointed to the court clothes he hadn't taken off, and said with a smile: "Did you see, I just came back from the palace."

Zhao Youan was dumbfounded.

In his impression, this Marquis of Jing'an has always been a very bold person, but he never thought that Li Xin could be so bold!

The emperor invited people into the capital, and he just blatantly killed them?

Not only did he not run away after killing him, but he also took the initiative to enter the palace to meet the emperor?

After a while, the Zhao family recovered from the shock. He glanced at Li Xin in awe, and took several deep breaths.

"Master Hou, I don't think I should go out to be an official anymore."

Zhao Jia said with a bitter face: "You hit the emperor's face like this, how can I get along in the court?"

"I didn't hit him in the face."

Compared to Zhao Jia's trembling, Jing'an Hou Ye looked calm and breezy, and he said lightly: "I didn't know that Li Xing was invited into the capital by him beforehand. The royal family, who also participated in the assassination of the late emperor, is a serious traitor, and as a minister of the Jin Dynasty, it is my duty to kill the traitors for the court."

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Jia let out a long sigh: "Master Hou, you can't deceive people with your bright words."

"believe it or not."

Lord Jing'an narrowed his eyes, and snorted: "Whether they believe it or not, they have to accept this statement. Do you want His Majesty to tell the world that he has never met the rebel who once plotted to assassinate the late emperor?"

The assassination mentioned by Li Xin refers to the fact that Li Xing once appointed his younger brother Li Fu to go to Beijing to assassinate the Chengde Emperor.

Although Li Xing used a knife to kill his younger brother, but it was indeed his mastermind who wanted to assassinate the late emperor.

Zhao Jia didn't know what to say, he poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it down.

The white-clothed scholar didn't drink very well, and his face turned red after a few glasses of wine. He sighed, hiccupped, and mumbled a sentence of emotion.

"A troubled autumn."

Chapter 685

After all, the matter of Li Xing did not cause too much trouble in the capital. At least on the surface, it was calm. After the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice came to take over the matter, they went to Jing'an Hou Mansion to find Li Xin to confirm the identity of the deceased. identity, and then this matter was sent to the desk of Shen Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, and it was left alone.

The Ministry of Punishment just didn't continue to ask about this matter, but it didn't really identify Li Xing as a "rebel", so the matter passed.

The yamen in the capital are all in tacit understanding, and everyone pretends nothing happened.

As a result, calm was restored in the capital, and everyone was supposed to do what they were supposed to do. The yamen of the Ministry of Households was still busy collecting money and managing accounts, the Ministry of Punishment was arresting thieves and murderers, and the Jingzhao Mansion was still busy.

Even the Ministry of War is busy every day.

The entire imperial court, from top to bottom, was busy. Only Li Xin, Marquis of Jing'an, was leisurely at home with his youngest son, who was still in confinement, and accompanied by the eldest princess who was still in confinement. Go to Chen Guogong's mansion to have a look.

Of course, there is also the somewhat annoying His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The prince is Li Xin's only student in name, so he is really not easy to stop the prince from going to Lord Jing'an, but Li Xin doesn't have the heart to teach him anything, he only takes him to play occasionally, most of the time, it is Let the eldest daughter, Ahan, play with His Royal Highness the Prince.

However, the eldest princess still loves this nephew very much, and makes some clothes for him when she has nothing to do.

The conflict between Li Xin and the emperor this time did not cause any movement on the surface, and it did not even affect His Royal Highness the prince's frequent visits.
