fierce fox

Then he turned his back to the crowd, suddenly shook his head with a smile and sighed, and softly laughed at himself: "If I knew how tiring being an emperor, I would have gone far and far away, made a feudal king, and lived a carefree life, not like today Father is not father and son is not son..."

I had to personally bury the man who thought he would ride a horse and drink all his life.

But the top of the mountain is snow-covered all the year round, even though a hundred flowers bloom at the foot of the mountain, it is like spring all the year round.

To be able to afford the imperial power of life, death and plunder, one must endure the pain of skinning and cramping against one's will.

But hasn't this supreme status come up by stepping on countless bones since ancient times?

"It's just that I didn't expect to have walked so far with my head buried, and done so many things against my conscience."

……

The ministers outside the palace walked in twos and threes, each holding their own opinions, discussing the idea of ​​the emperor's sudden turn, and looking at King Yucheng who did not take the usual path from time to time.

Whether it's the second prince's party who thought they were doomed or the third prince's party who was proud of themselves and was waiting for favors, they were all shocked by this thoughtless King Yucheng today.

Although the Second Prince's Party said they couldn't get any cheap, they were very happy to see the group of bearded and staring old men on the other side.

These idiots, Chen Yide made the case, although they didn't implicate the third prince, and the emperor didn't hold Mo Gong accountable, but how could they be so greedy and want to try to figure out the Sacred Heart to win the game for themselves?Dreaming.

This time it's all right, but this time no one is pleased, and the one surnamed Xue was taken advantage of for nothing.

Lin Huaiyi didn't seem to notice the probing eyes from all sides, humming a little tune and looking at himself leisurely.

Mo Gong was a little bit angry, this was the name of a prince who only had a false position, and that was a general with real power, he went to the frontier to practice for a few years, to pack up his military achievements, and he didn't have to go to the battle himself, there were military advisers in the barracks to advise him, and The emperor needs his identity to win people's hearts.

Obviously, multi-party cooperation can reach the sky in one step, and anyone would gladly accept it. He had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't expect that this soft bone would push away the pie that fell from the sky in public.

"My lord is so generous. Before he has a bright future, he can humbly let the virtuous." He walked to Lin Huaiyi's side and said to him speciously.

Those who spoke gradually stopped talking, those who walked slowed down, held their breath quietly, peeped at the prince from the corner of their eyes, and listened to what he would say about this matter.

"Huaiyi knows very well that morality is not worthy, and he cannot bear this heavy responsibility. He must not be able to wear this hat. After a lifetime, dust will return to ashes. It is better to see yourself clearly earlier, so as not to torture yourself with infinite greed. good."

What he said was like an old monk entering meditation, only to wear a cassock and hold Buddhist beads in his hand to preach Buddhist rituals to all living beings.If not everyone knew that the prince was a frequent customer of various restaurants in the capital, they would all believe this nonsense.

Mo Gong sneered, "It's good to return to ashes, I didn't expect the prince to abandon fame and fortune at such a young age, and my heart is as calm as water, this king is really ashamed of himself.

It's just a pity that General Lin spent his entire life as a soldier, but he didn't cultivate a person who can take over his body. It's a pity that the famous name of the Lin family will be ruined here. "Mo Gong naturally won't be a good person, and he knows how to poke people's hearts.

"The prince has a noble status, he is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and his every move must be for the people of Li and the people of the world. How can he be compared with the humble people such as ministers." Lin Huaiyi replied with a half-smile.

"Nowadays, the surrounding Xiaoxiao are afraid of my great Wei and dare not make any changes. The ministers can wait for the flowers to fall and enjoy the white clouds in the prosperous age. It is all because the emperor governs the country well, and the princes and ministers are dedicated to assisting them.

When the world is in chaos, swords and swords will be used. Naturally, these embroidered pillows like me will pick up iron tools to defend our home and country. "

Four or two strokes of a thousand catties, these words were clearly intended to be disgusting, but they were said so sincerely that Mo Gong couldn't get angry again, so he could only glared at Lin Huaiyi and walked away.

The flames crackling hidden in a conversation were temporarily turned over by the two to whitewash the peace.

Mo Li, who was not far away, also breathed a sigh of relief, at least this time, neither he nor Mo Gong, who had always been with five people and six people in front of people, got any advantage.

"Heh, he also wanted to push King Yucheng up to sell favors, but he didn't expect that people would not accept his kindness and blocked him. It's rare that the proud son of heaven shot himself in the foot with a stone, thinking he's smart."

Thinking about it this way, Mo Li's mood improved a lot, and by the way, seeing this cheap prince who walks like a weak wind and a willow is also very pleasing to the eye.

Although this person is a bit stupid, at least he still has self-knowledge, and he didn't try to stand in my way this time, but he is also sensible.

The person recommended by Ruan Changshi seems to have a good relationship with him, and if he has a chance, he can visit him to make a good relationship.

The more Mo Li thought about it, the more complacent he became, and he went up to exchange a few words with Lin Huaiyi. He first thanked him for not competing with him for the position of commander, and then deliberately said at the end, "Next time, this king will take some time to go to the general's mansion. Please don't close the door, my lord." Thank you." Mo Gong heard what he said, and left happily without hearing what Lin Huaiyi said.

After watching his performance, Lin Huaiyi gave a cold snort and got into the car.

After returning home, Lin Huaiyi couldn't bear it any longer, and simply told Lingqu about the matter in his original form, and told him that he needed to be prepared, so he dragged his hands and feet away from the study, planning to find the token left by Lin Yiqing to bring to Lingqu in the future superior.

As a result, as soon as he jumped on the bookcase, his whole body lost his strength, and he suddenly felt dizzy, and fell straight to the ground in front of his eyes.

It's just that the pain of touching the ground did not hit, as if falling into an embrace, the man carried a leisurely fragrance of books, soaking into Lin Huaiyi's gradually chaotic consciousness from all directions, surrounding him.

☆、Chapter 20

"Brother Xu, if you were born into an ordinary family in the next life, have you thought about what to do?"

"Ordinary people... I want to be an idler in the world, travel mountains and rivers, recite poems and paint paintings, do not seek fame or profit, help those officials and gentlemen make couplet portrait portraits, earn some living expenses, and occasionally write for restaurant singers Writing libretto may be handed down for hundreds of generations."

"Then you live alone?"

"What is Little Fairy thinking? People need someone to share their life with. As for making friends, it doesn't matter whether you are rich or poor. Buy a pot of good wine and drink a few sips together when you are free. The land is the shop, no matter who the royal family is, no matter how many dynasties change, if you are lucky, there will be another person who never leaves, just thinking about it makes me feel happy."

"Do you have to be alone..."

"Huh? I didn't hear what you said. What are you doing so quietly?"

"It's nothing."

"At that time, if you meet me, you are welcome to come and nibble on me again, but the blood raised by the simple food will not be as fragrant as it is now, and the little fox fairy will go to find someone else, right?"

"Well, then I'll look for other blood that replenishes qi and tastes good, and I definitely don't want you."

In the distant time, the night was clear and the moon was bright, he lay on the man's chest, turned his head away angrily, and made a unilateral quarrel, the man giggled and scratched his belly to tease him.

Scratch...scratch...stomach...skin...

Lin Huaiyi woke up suddenly, and found himself lying in a slightly thin arms, the young man's mischievous hands were scratching his belly one after another.

Through the young man, he saw Ling Qu's stiff face, some cold sweat broke out on his forehead, secretly looking at him.

In fact, as soon as Lin Huaiyi went to court in the morning, Lin Xu came. The young man had a pale face, as if he was about to ask something urgent. He had to wait for him, so he arranged him in the study, and Lin Xu just didn't go out. I waited all morning and didn't even change the tea in the middle.

The right-wing leader and housekeeper, who is usually meticulous about everything, forgot about it for a while when he learned that he was going back to the frontier fortress.

He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, Lin Huaiyi didn't change form in the study and was bumped into by Lin Xu, otherwise he would really have to hit the wall to apologize.

"Awake!" The young man smiled when he saw him open his eyes.

The fox smacked his mouth and was almost fainted by the overwhelming sweetness. Sure enough, there was a bowl of brown sugar water that was thick enough to turn black beside it.

"I didn't expect this little fox fairy to be a frequent visitor to the General's Mansion. No wonder he can be so psychic."

In fact, he dreamed last night that Lin Huaiyi stabbed his heart with a sword, bleeding all over the place, and the prince in the dream just watched the blood gurgling from his chest without saying a word, as if he had done it a thousand times proficiently. , the eyes are empty and dead.

After waking up, he clearly knew that this was just a nightmare and it shouldn't be true, but he still couldn't let go, thinking that he should come again to see the prince.

When he came to Lin Mansion with Uncle Liu to visit, he just sat in the front hall for a while, he had never seen this huge and empty mansion inside and out, let alone King Yucheng's study.

It wasn't until today that he walked in here that he felt that the arrangement of the bamboo slips and desks in this room was inexplicably familiar to him.

There is a pot of hibiscus under the wooden lattice window inside, which is lush and lush. This green plant is delicate and cannot be kept alive in the arid and windy Western Regions, and people in the capital like to raise peonies and crabapples to show their luxury, so Lin Xu has never seen hibiscus before. , but I don’t know why he can call this green plant by its name as soon as he sees it.

This scene made him feel more flustered the more he looked at it for no reason, and the more he thought about it, the more palpitations he felt. The blood in his body seemed to break through the blood vessels and rush out, and the scattered fragments exploded in his brain, making him suddenly The headache was unbearable, and he wanted to walk, but the pain gripped him like vines from head to toe, making him unable to take a step at all, so he could only sit on the chair and rest for a while.

When he regained his energy and was about to say goodbye, he saw the white fox come in weakly, as if he was exhausted, and jumped up to the bookcase before he could say hello and rolled down.

He was also really shocked, and hurried to catch the little creature so it wouldn't break.

It's just that he really couldn't figure out why the white fox appeared in the general's mansion, and the prince didn't look like a person who loves animals.

It wasn't until Lingqu came and told him that the white fox was also a frequent visitor to the Lin mansion, and that he had been free to come and go in the mansion, that he really felt relieved and made a bowl of sugar water to feed the troublemaker.

"Maybe it has seen the prince come to the Proton Mansion and remembers the way, so it will visit me occasionally." Lin Xu thought.

The fox wanted to rinse his mouth out of frustration, but at the same time hoped that Lin Xu would scratch him a little longer, unable to make up his mind.This hesitation unexpectedly formed an embarrassing situation where the three parties remained silent.

"Cough...my lord, it looks like the lord is going to the fourth prince's mansion, and I guess he will return late. Normally, the lord will come back after the fourth prince has had lunch. Why don't you go back first, and I'll find someone to go when the lord comes back." Report a letter to your house?"

Lingqu glanced at the prince who was about to stick out his tongue, and thought it would be better to let Lin Xu go back first.

"It's okay, I just came to visit. I stayed in the prince's study and forgot the time. It was Lin Xu who was rude and bothered me for a long time." Lin Xu apologized slightly.

"It's just," Lin Xu seemed to have thought of something before going out, "If it's convenient, I'd like to trouble the general to tell the prince when he comes back. There seems to be some progress in the matter of the second prince Wensu."

The fox raised his eyebrows, and exchanged a glance with Lingqu. After Lin Xu left, Lingqu also went out to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

……

half an hour later

Proton House

"Bingzhicao grows in a cold place, and very few people have actually seen it. It is said that taking a crushed plant and putting it in wine has the effect of relieving internal fire and blood poison, but because it is extremely cold, it should not be taken for a long time, let alone overdose.

And the red puff flower grows in the valley of flames, and it will not wither for a hundred years after picking it off, and it is a great tonic.It's just that the valley of flames is full of miasma all year round, snakes are colorful and insects are poisonous, and the output of red fair flowers is very small, which is very precious.

The two can't be taken at the same time, they are yin and yang mutually restraining substances, no one can bear the coexistence of the most extreme two herbs in the body unless they are the gods of Daluo.

As for the second prince, his throat was pinched and he was gulped straight down. His seven orifices bled, and his internal fluid flowed all over the floor. His death was horrific. "

Not long after Lin Xu returned to the mansion, he heard a servant report that King Yucheng was coming, along with Gongsun Ying and the fourth prince. Thinking that they seemed to be very concerned about this matter, he spoke in more detail.

"Although Wensu is a small country, most of the kings of the past dynasties worked diligently to listen to the government, ate food and clothes, and managed this country in the cracks in an orderly manner.

And the royal family and nobles are not luxurious and corrupt. They all come out with style, and they really have the appearance of the royal family.But now even if the cause of death was found out, the murderer could not be found. The king was furious and had already imprisoned many people. "

"Being able to sneak into the second prince's bedroom and pinch his throat, that is to say, he could have given him a good time but found such a troublesome way, did Yeluchi do something unforgivable to hate him so much. Mo Yunji frowned, a little puzzled.

"This is what is even more puzzling." Lin Huaiyi interrupted

"Yeluchi is generous and hospitable by nature. He has never had any enemies with others, and he is not arrogant to his servants on weekdays. Even when his former bodyguard's mother died of illness, he even found someone to bury the old man and released him. He is a man of love and justice." And most of the news from his spies in the northwest is affirmation of the second prince Wensu.

Even Lin Xu, who had been in contact with him a few times, admired him quite a lot.

"Then why is that? Could it be that someone is deliberately trying to scare the chickens and monkeys to prevent private communication between countries?" Gongsunying was a little puzzled.

"No, although Wensu is a small country, it is also a world fought on horseback. Everyone is brave and good at fighting, and the king is not a coward. Those people made the scene so ugly. If they kill chickens to make an example of monkeys, are they not afraid of backlash? At that time, the old and new grudges will be counted together, and we will fight to the death. No one will be able to please." Lin Huaiyi shook his head.

"Then... which prince was jealous of Yeluchi's talent and achievements, so he did it? If this is an internal struggle, then we outsiders can't control it." Mo Yunji said hesitantly, if it was his king Great Wei shouldn't have interfered in domestic affairs.

"But if it's about seizing power, it would be better for him to die quietly. Such a mobilization of teachers and people should not be done by a family. If someone finds out, I'm afraid they will be nailed to the pillar of shame. It's too dangerous and the gain outweighs the loss." Lin Xu thought said after a while.

Lin Huaiyi was a little surprised. This Lin Xu usually didn't look like a mountain dew, and looked innocent and harmless to humans and animals, but when he analyzed it, it hit the nail on the head.

However, after such a discussion, all four of them found that they had entered a dead end again, so they probably could only continue to wait for news to see if there would be any other new developments.

"I didn't expect that someone would be so reckless that they would take Bingzhicao and Hongxuhua to harm people." Gongsunying sighed "tsk tsk", "this rich and powerful..."

For those who are in the army, Hongxuhua is a dream medicine, but it is too difficult to find, so everyone uses some common medicinal materials such as Angelica Panax Codonopsis to replenish qi and reduce stasis.

Every year, there are many people who go to Blazing Valley to pick red puff flowers, but not many can come back. The bones that fell to death at the foot of the mountain have spontaneously formed a mountain road, so that the red puff flowers are hard to pay in the capital. Please, a small flower can be sold for a sky-high price.

And Bingzhicao is even more mysterious. It is located in an extremely cold place, and it will only turn green once a year, and there is no fixed time.

"If I can have a red polder flower, I will be able to single-handedly kill the Huns and fight him for three days and three nights." Gongsunying looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling blood boiling just thinking about it.

Lin Huaiyi said leisurely, "I still have some in my house, do you want it?"

Gongsun Ying: ...

Mo Yunji: ...

Lin Xu: ...

"The adoptive father left some behind."

In this way, everyone can understand that General Lin has devoted himself to fighting all year round, and what he is doing is the most dangerous and tiring thing in the world, and he must also need the most precious treasure for body protection.

But they didn't know that the flower was actually picked by the greedy fox in order to coax the blood to drink.

What is more dangerous than the Flame Valley is the human heart. He has seen someone who found the Red Fairy Flower and pushed the companion who supported each other up the mountain not long ago to the valley;

I have also seen praying mantises catching cicadas and orioles behind, and after someone went down the mountain after picking the flowers with great painstaking efforts, another team of people who had been waiting at the entrance of the valley had their throats sealed with a sword, and the blood spread all over the ground.

It is also nourished by thousands of resentful souls that make this flower bloom more and more beautiful, grow more and more bewitching.Even though they knew it was dangerous, countless people died for it one after another.Maybe some people do it to save lives, but there are also people who just do it for glory and wealth.

There is no shortage of gamblers in this world.

☆、Chapter 21

As for Bingzhi grass, although the fox has a lot of hair, it is still very afraid of the cold, so it has not been looked for.This is what Lin Yiqing personally went down to Bihai Hanchuan to pick it up on the way to the Xiongnu, in order to save the life of the fox that was about to be scorched by the thunder.

The fox only remembered that someone fed it juice in a daze at that time. After feeding it for several days, the burning pain all over the body gradually subsided.

"Forget it, this kind of treasure should be kept in the general's mansion for physical fitness when necessary, and then it can be used by the princesses to have a litter of little princes." Gongsunying smiled "hehe", pretending that she hadn't let go of her rhetoric just now .

Mo Yunji: "...why do you feel a little weird when you say that?"

In Gongsun Ying's continued "hehehehe", Lin Xu suddenly remembered that there seemed to be dried flowers in the medicinal materials sent by the general's mansion before. Could this be...

He looked at Lin Huaiyi in surprise, only to see that the latter half-closed his eyes and was looking at him with a smile that was not a smile. He put his thin and pale fingers on his lips and gave him a soft "shh", Lin Xu felt his mind buzzing. With a bang, all the birds in the entire spiritual consciousness began to sing.

For a while, it was what he said personally, "the output is very small", and for a while, it was Gongsun Ying's unserious "fitness, and give birth to a little prince". This little researcher felt something burning in his heart. Some flushed.

Although Lin Xu is usually a widow who wants to pay attention to etiquette, and there is no maid in the house, but a man at this age understands everything he should know, and he has thought about everything he should think about. Already preparing for their engagement.

They are all at the young age, and they are not ready to shave their hair and become a monk to escape into Buddhism, so it is not justified that they do not feel a little charming in their hearts.

He saw his figure from Lin Huaiyi's rippling eyes, as if he had put his whole body in his heart, and Lin Xu, who was disturbed, forgot for a moment whether he cared about receiving it or not. The precious flowers he received still cared about the "future princesses".

Gongsunying grew up among men, but a girl's family is not taboo about meat and vegetables, and she can chatter non-stop with her opened mouth.

Mo Yunji is not a pedantic person either. Although he has never married a concubine and would not take the initiative to talk about it, he still laughs at the dirty jokes he occasionally hears from others, just like his usual style, tolerant and tolerant.

And Lin Huaiyi... hangs around all the beautiful sisters in the capital all the year round, so he is probably a real patriarch.

As for Lin Xu, he has always been as thin-skinned as a cicada's wing, and he weighs and weighs all the complicated thoughts in his heart, cherishing and cherishing them.Normally, no one would tease these things in his ear, and this new experience really blew him away.

After all, that flower is lying in the Proton Mansion right now.

"A girl who hasn't been out of the cabinet is out of shape all day long."

Fortunately, Mo Yunji spoke up and reprimanded Gongsunying who kept talking, "General Gongsun asked me before if there is any nanny in the palace who can teach people etiquette. It seems that they should be found sooner." At Mo Yunji's words, Gongsun Ying closed her mouth with an "ow" as if her tail was on fire.

The female general is not afraid of going into the battle and dying, not afraid of soldiers approaching the city and bleeding rivers, but afraid of being restrained by someone to take a few inches, smile a few teeth, make her wear a needle that can't find a hole, and listen to the three obediences and four virtues that can't be patient.

She stuck out her tongue at Mo Yunji, making him laugh with the look of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

"I heard from my father that the emperor ordered Lingqu to be the commander of Shanyan?" She remembered what her father told her today after he came down to court.

"Well, I originally wanted to push me over, but then Ruan Shangshu said that Lingqu is more suitable, but it's only tentative, so I don't have any confidence." Lin Huaiyi responded.

"It's just why Qi Shangshu suddenly proposed you today? What's the intention?" Although Mo Yunji had cooperated with them in acting in court, he was still a little puzzled.

"For them, this is a stable business without losing money." Lin Huaiyi twirled the ivy branches with his fingertips boredly, "If it succeeds, it will not only meet the emperor's wishes but also earn my favor. Not happy?"

"But it's too late, they were too loud in the court, and they ruined this good show." Lin Huaiyi chuckled.

"This person is always greedy. He wants to accept favors and put a nail in the emperor's heart. When the time comes, he can tear out a bloodstain."

There is nothing so cheap in this world.

"However, their understanding of Emperor Father is really deep, and I feel ashamed." Mo Yunji was a little ashamed.

In fact, it wasn't just Qi Shangshu, General Gongsun could react in such a quick time, and began to belittle Lin Huaiyi to the emperor, which was already difficult for Mo Yunji.

Fortunately, he also vaguely sensed that something was wrong at the time, so he followed General Gongsun to destroy the "killing" of Lin Huaiyi by Qi Shangshu and his group.

"They? Some are the emperor's teachers, some have watched the emperor grow up, and some have grown up with the emperor. They are more accurate than you in guessing the holy meaning." Lin Huaiyi glanced at Mo Yunji, "The bones of those idiots who didn't figure it out accurately, rushed forward without hitting the south wall and didn't look back, have turned to ashes."

Mo Yunji's throat moved slightly, but in the end he didn't speak.The son didn't say anything about his father's faults, but on the first day when he went to court, he happened to meet his father who ordered the execution of the former Zhongshu Ling, Mr. Li.

The screams outside the court rang for an entire hour, from shrill to weak and then dissipated, he could only listen to them, and the hall was dead silent, no one spoke.

Later, when he saw Li Zhongshu's bloody state, he really couldn't bear it, so he asked someone to bury the poor man, and knelt and begged for a long time before the emperor to protect the Li family from the fate of female prostitutes and male soldiers. The award dismissed his family members.

Even so, he was still trapped in a nightmare for a whole year, the dream was full of blood, and countless hands stretched out to him to pay for his life.

Because he knew that Li Zhongshu's crime was not fatal, and this thrilling drama was specially arranged by his father to take care of him and his two elder brothers who were in court on the first day.

It's really affectionate.

From then on, the emperor is the emperor, and the minister is the minister. The deep love between father and son is simply a joke in the emperor's family.The harder he tried to assist in government affairs, the further away his heart became.

He saw his father's falsehood through a layer of fog, but his father saw the benevolence of his woman very well.

"My father told me that the mother's family of the Concubine Zhen, whom the third prince loves very much, should have supported the Xue family, but it was their lack of support that made the whole family of the Xue family trapped to death in Daxing. The bloodthirsty owl of the Xianbei king, after occupying Daxing, slaughtered the city, had the heads of the Xue family beheaded, and hung them at the gate of the city..."

Even Gongsun Ying, who is well-informed and well-informed, finds it difficult to continue.Xue's grandfather, grandmother, and younger generations, regardless of gender, had blood flowing into rivers overnight.

"A whole month."

Once the city was destroyed, the eagles and eagles hovered in mid-air, and the cold cry was miserable, just like a purgatory on earth.

Only one granddaughter-in-law was secretly carried out in a dung truck, and she was terrified. When the grandfather of the Lin family found her, he was already insane. There is a tattoo on the back, engraved with "Xue".

I don't know why, but Old General Lin didn't return her surname, but secretly placed his mother in another courtyard. After Ling Qu was born, his mother hanged herself and died. From then on, Ling Qu entered the Lin residence. Others only regarded him as a subordinate of Old General Lin, who died in battle and entrusted him to the old general.

The old general was kind-hearted and treated the child as if he was from his own family, exactly.

When General Lin was seriously ill, he told Ruan Changshi, begging him to give Lingqu a chance to recognize his ancestors one day.Ruan Changshi has seven orifices and exquisite skills. He not only retains a sincere heart but also knows how to assess the situation. He is indeed a rare talent.

When he was young in his early years, he was once convicted of indiscriminate speech. The grandfather of the Xue family tried his best to save him. With this kindness, he is indeed the best candidate to take over this matter.

And Lin Yiqing never told Lin Huaiyi about this, and Lingqu himself never said anything about it. He always said more than he said, and he only regarded it as a trivial matter, because so many people died on the battlefield, and it was the Lin family who raised him. No matter what his surname is, he has long regarded himself as the Lin family.

So when Lin Huaiyi heard about it in court, he was not surprised.

"The Grand Tutor once told us about the Xue family." Mo Yunji said, "It's just that I didn't expect that the Xue family, which was thought to be exterminated, still has a bloodline."

The sockets of Mo Yunji's eyes were slightly hot, just like when he was young when he was ignorant, although he couldn't fully understand what Xu Taifu said, he still had a sour emotion stuck in his chest for a long time.

"Zhen's support is not timely? Where did they start from?"

Lin Huaiyi always felt that something was wrong, and continued, "If it is for support, it will not choose a city that is too far away, and the Xue family is familiar with the art of war, and they are cautious. Even if there is a slight possibility that the reinforcements will not arrive, they will not leave the city. Fight..."

There's so much going wrong here.

"It's not far. The explanation given by Zhen's family at that time was that they encountered a Xianbei army on the way to stop them. Even Zhen's father lost his third son because of this, and he was also in great pain. Hearing this, Emperor Shidi heard that Zhen's father lost his son in old age, and felt sorry for him. I didn't blame the support, and gave some compensation." Mo Yunji said

"Meet Xianbei troops on the way? The support route has always been kept secret, and how did they know it?" Gongsunying was always impatient with matters related to the war.

"Where there are people, there are loopholes." Lin Huaiyi and Lin Xu said in unison.As soon as the words were finished, the two looked at each other. Lin Xu just felt that the words suddenly floated through his mind, and they were a little familiar. It seemed to be something he often said, so he said it casually.Lin Huaiyi suddenly smiled, lowered his head and said nothing.

"You guys really have a good understanding." Mo Yunji smiled and took a sip of his tea, feeling that the suddenly awkward atmosphere was a bit amusing.

"There are too many things that can go wrong. If the enemy army has enough understanding of the terrain of the Great Wei, they can deduce where the support will come from, or someone in their own army has defected..."

Lin Huaiyi suddenly stopped and stopped talking. The other three also thought of a more important question. Where did the Xianbei soldiers who could block Zhen's family come from? If one of the soldiers at the checkpoint survived , and they will not let them come to the territory of Great Wei so easily.

Unless, they were already in the territory of Great Wei.

The four of them suddenly felt a chill behind their backs.

☆、Chapter 22

"At that time, it was found out that the soldiers of Changbai Mountain had neglected their duties, held a big banquet and got drunk late at night, and let the Xianbei people take a small path to come in..." Mo Yunji said with difficulty

"At that time, Mo Que, the commander of Changbai Mountain, claimed that someone had poured sweat medicine into the banquet wine, but the first emperor was so angry that he didn't believe it, so he sent Mo Que to the Tianzi Prison... Mo Que took poison and committed suicide during his imprisonment..."

He spoke more and more slowly, "And Mo Que is the second son of the First Emperor, the second younger brother of the First Emperor..."

Mo Yunji became more and more afraid to speak.

Why did the Changbai garrison who had been drugged with Mongolian sweat survive to be suppressed by the court trial?With Xianbei's always extremely cruel style, how could they stay alive in the face of unconscious and defenseless defenders?

But all the knowledge he learned was taught by the Taifu and his father in their spare time in the palace, and he only listened to the scene, and under the teaching of the Taifu, he came to the conclusion of "knowing people and using them well". The emperor is from the lineage of the former emperor, but if...

Is it not clear that the position of the dragon chair was obtained?

Do you dare to say it?Will father be willing to say it?Or do they know?

Winner and loser, what they know now is only what the winner wants them to know.

A chill ran from head to toe, and Mo Yunji couldn't help shivering slightly.

It is said that the royal family is the most vicious, the most filthy, and the most inhumane. If this whitewashed surface is torn apart, how many rotten and nasty things will be inside?

Isn't it a good deal to exchange a Xue family and a remote Daxing for the power of the world?

And the grandson-in-law of the Xue family who escaped was hidden by the grandfather of the Lin family to prevent her from being shown to others during that period of time, and her hanging herself later, did it show that his thoughts were correct.All possible insiders of the Xue family will eventually escape bad luck.

Only the dead cannot speak.

If this is the case, the whole family of the Xue family, old and young, will all die in vain.

They thought they were loyal to the country, but in fact they just gave their lives as wedding dresses for others.

For a while, the four of them looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one spoke first. There was a lot involved in it, and their views, whether true or not, were enough to shake the heavens and the earth.

Although the ancestors had killed their fathers and brothers before, and their cold-blooded relatives refused to admit it, but when they were in this situation, no one could easily accept it.

But now the blood of the Xue family is extinct, and there is only Lingqu who was raised by the Lin family and knows nothing about the past, and Ruan Changshi, who has grown old after three dynasties. What have you said, if it is just ordinary words, are they just being superfluous?

If you go to inquire rashly and be known by someone with a heart, no matter the prince, general or prince, this is a capital offense.

You don't need to care about your own life or death, and after death, all grievances and grievances will dissipate, but if you ask about the blame, it will inevitably implicate the nine clans, so no one dares to point fingers at the royal affairs.

Mo Yunji thought of another thing.

A few years ago, a folk storyteller made up an interesting story about Emperor Duan Zhenling and General Lin. In order to avoid suspicion, he changed the content to change dynasties.

This storyteller is quite talented, the stories are told vividly, and the price is right, you can sit in a teahouse for a few cups of tea and listen to his eloquent lectures, about how many times the city walls and pavilions have been weathered, and about the emperors and generals who have been crazy for half their lives.

The audience under the Xingmu table are always fascinated by listening to it, until the storyteller slaps the gavel again, they will find that they are either grinning or bursting into tears, as if they are the two people in the book. , with the opening and closing of the paper fan of the husband, Huang Liang walked through the scene in a dream.

Until the emperor’s southern tour in micro-clothes, when Lu met the overcrowded teahouse, he went in curiously to listen to it. After hearing it a few times, his complexion became worse every time. The last time he left halfway, and the next day when everyone came to the teahouse as usual, they found that there was no Go to Loukong, and never see the owner and storyteller again.

And that day, Mr. Storyteller was talking about the two quarreling because of disagreements. In order to make the emperor happy, the general picked up a baby wolf cub from nowhere and put it on the emperor's lap. On the morning, the emperor had no choice but to rock the gray wolf cub in his arms and coax him to sleep.

Before I could tell the rest of the story, the person disappeared.

Only a few attendants knew that the bones of those who were never seen again were fed to wolves on Mount Anzhuo on the outskirts of the city.

Being virtuous and sage is a disguise, while ruthlessness is the true heart.

"If you want to find out about this matter, you have to be more careful." Mo Yunji said, "Don't let people talk about it."

"It's natural." Lin Huaiyi said in a deep voice.Gongsun Ying also nodded seriously.

"Young master, you must not talk too much about today's matter. It is related to your own life and the safety of your own country." Mo Yunji was worried, and asked Lin Xu in a low voice. For Mo Yunji, he would blame himself to the point of unbearable.

"Lin Xu understands, so he won't say too much," Lin Xu said.

What happened today was also unexpected for him. He wanted to discuss the Second Prince Wensu with the three of them, but he didn't expect to bring up another even more shocking event.

"Ah Xu, you have time to repair an urgent letter to the queen, so that she can pay more attention to the border.
