Unparalleled Concubine

As he spoke, he was about to give an order with a wave of his hand. Li Xin put his hands in his sleeves and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty wants to arrest the minister's family?"

The emperor was expressionless and did not answer.

Li Xin continued to smile and said, "Your Majesty didn't realize that today's New Year's Eve, did I enter the palace alone?"

"Your Majesty also knows that I am a cautious person. After Dali Temple suffered a loss last time, how could I be unprepared? At this time, all the members of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, except for some servants, other family members are no longer in the capital. gone."

Companion is like a tiger.

Li Xin has known this for a long time, so since the day he became a high-ranking official in the capital, he has not let down his vigilance for a day. In order to save himself a way out, he has done a lot of tricks in the huge Jing'an Hou Mansion. .

For example, authentic or something.

For nearly eight years, Li Xin dug more than a dozen tunnels under the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, several of which could leave Yongle Square and lead to other workshops.

It is worth mentioning that when Li Xin was digging these tunnels, he found a lot of dug tunnels under the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, which reminded him that this Marquis Mansion used to be the fourth prince's Qi Wang Mansion. His Royal Highness is also in the same mind as Li Xin.

Today, the capital is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The group of people in the power center are very nervous because of Li Xin's imprisonment, but the lives of ordinary people in the capital are not difficult. All the nine gates of the capital are open, so as long as they can leave Jing'anhou Mansion, or leaving Yongle Square, if you want to leave the capital, you don't want to do anything difficult.

In fact, when Li Xin returned from Dali Temple to the Jing'an Hou Mansion, the eldest princess and others had already been transferred one after another, so on the day Li Xin returned home, no family members from the Hou Mansion came out to greet him.

Having said that, Li Xin showed a bright smile on his face.

He tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes.

"If Your Majesty feels that the minister's crime is extremely heinous, you can do it now."

Chapter 778 Sealing the King of Different Surnames!

To be honest, it was not easy for the family of Jing'an Houfu to leave the city, at least it was not as easy as he said.

During this period of time in the capital, not only the Tianmu Supervisor, but even the people from the Plum Blossom Guard were staring at the Jing'an Hou Mansion. Even if he had a tunnel to get out of Yongle Fang, it would be difficult for him to leave the capital.

Fortunately, in the past few years, these people under Li Xin's subordinates all have a clear identity, spread all over all walks of life, more than 100 people worked together, and it took ten days to get the eldest princess and Li Xin. Xin's son and daughter were sent out of the capital.

During this period, Li Xin kept it from everyone. In order to keep it secret, even the servants of the Jing'an Hou Mansion did not know that his mistress and young lady had left the mansion. They still thought they were still living in the backyard. , just sick, do not want to see people.

Meals are delivered as normal every day.

As for Li Xin, he cannot go out of the city with the eldest princess. He himself is the biggest target of the imperial court. I don’t know how many people are staring at him. Face, to "cover" his wife and children out of the city.

After his wife and children leave the city, there are many places they can go. The forces Li Xin cultivated in the past five years are capable enough to protect them.

And they are not in the capital, not under the control of the emperor, so Li Xin's weakness does not exist.

He raised his neck, waiting for Emperor Taikang's butcher knife.

It seems to be asking for death, but it is actually a provocation.

He was sure that the emperor would not dare to kill him.

He is a hero of the country, and even a representative figure among the generals of the Jin Dynasty. If he is killed for no reason, not to mention how the government and the opposition will discuss it, it will even cause dissatisfaction in the military.

Especially the Ye family's dissatisfaction.

At this time, the Southwest was already in chaos, and the emperor was not even sure that he would take back the Southwest soon. Under such circumstances, if Li Xin died for no apparent reason, the entire Jin Dynasty would be in chaos. It plummeted.

The country will even turn from prosperity to decline!

At that time, Emperor Chengde refused to kill Li Shen because he was afraid of damage to the national strength, but now if Emperor Taikang kills Li Xin, it will not only damage the national strength, but even shake the foundation of the country!

In the face of such important family and country affairs, unless the emperor is stunned, he will soon make the right decision.

The emperor finally fell silent.

He waved his hand and signaled all the courtiers in the study to retreat, then he moved a chair himself and placed it beside Li Xin, then turned around and moved a chair for himself, placed it opposite Li Xin, and took a deep breath Afterwards, he sat down on the chair.

The Son of Heaven looked up and looked at Li Xin.

He was silent for a moment, and let out a breath with some difficulty.

"Well, what do you want?"

This is to negotiate with Li Xin.

The emperor knew very well that at this time, as long as Li Xin said a word, Southwest would be stabilized. He asked this sentence, which meant what conditions would allow Li Xin to take action to pacify Southwest.

Li Xin was not pretentious either, he sat down opposite the emperor, and looked at the emperor in front of him with a calm expression.

"Your Majesty may have misunderstood it. It was never what the minister wanted to do, but what His Majesty wanted to do?"

"If His Majesty doesn't send people to attack Hanzhou, there won't be anything to happen afterwards."

Speaking of this, Li Xin paused, and continued: "Even after the incident in Hanzhou, there is still room for change. Hanzhou is willing to recruit security and surrender, and the minister did not pretend that nothing happened, and set off to return to Beijing to reconcile the situation." Mediation, at this time the imperial court turned a blind eye and recruited Mu Ying, and the matter was over, but His Majesty did not choose to turn a blind eye, instead he insisted on haggling with his ministers."

The emperor was expressionless.

"Without that thing, I can naturally turn a blind eye to it, but you have such a sharp weapon, but you have cheated me for five years, how can I not care?"

"Five years."

The Son of Heaven let out a foul breath, and said in a muffled voice: "Five years ago, you handed this thing over to me, and now let alone the Yuwen tribes in the north, even Tubo in the west, I should have brought it down!"

"I have always regarded you as a brother before, but you have treated me like this. It's fine if you don't want to be with me. You actually gave this thing to those rebels in the southwest!"

Lord Jing'an lowered his brows and said, "Your Majesty, if you don't treat the people of Hanzhou as rebels, they are the people of Jin Dynasty. If you want to talk about it, it is the imperial court who forced them to rebel."

Emperor Taikang's face was a bit unsightly, he said with a gloomy face, "I don't want you to preach to me, this game was won by you, Li Chang'an, and I also conceded the defeat, just tell me, what do you want, Southwest can do it Calm down?"

Li Xin shook his head.

"Southwest can't go back to what it used to be."

He was silent for a while, then continued: "Say a few words from your heart to Your Majesty. Your Majesty said that I raised Hanzhou's army as a private soldier. This is wrong. I do have contacts with Hanzhou, but It's limited to travel, no one can remotely control an army thousands of miles away."

"The army in Hanzhou is managed by the Mu family, and it is also the Mu family who have the final say. They may listen to what I say, but they will never listen to everything."

"At this time, the chaos in the southwest has already occurred. Unless the imperial court is willing to use the forbidden army to suppress the rebellion in the southwest, it will be difficult to calm down in the southwest."

At this point, Li Xin paused, and then continued: "Even if the imperial court intervenes, it will only be in a quagmire. The Mu family in Hanzhou is very different from the Pingnan army. The Pingnan army entered Shu from outsiders. And the Mu family is an out-and-out Shu people, and the people in the southwest will agree with them very quickly."

The emperor looked at Li Xin and smiled coldly.

"Speaking of the Pingnan Army, you Li Houye deliberately let go of tens of thousands of Pingnan Army, probably just waiting for today?"

Li Xin stood up, bowed to the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter, you can hate me and blame me, but the Western Expeditionary Army back then never had any dissatisfaction. Chen and General Ye took them to the right battalion of the Forbidden Army in the southwest, not to mention the casualties, at least ten to seven or eight!"

"That's why I agreed to let the Southern Army go out of the city."
