"Then Lin Ruo, you can be stupid too.;.ggdown." Li Yuanji narrowed his eyes. Under his body were several layers of soft and white fox fur. In the baby's cradle, he felt that he was about to fall asleep comfortably, but he was not satisfied, thinking that if there was a young man surnamed Lin playing the piano for him or drinking a few glasses of wine with him, maybe he really had nothing else to ask for. .

Thinking of this, he couldn't help raising his eyes to look at the window, and then looked away bored.

Someone was playing the piano outside the window. A young man in Confucian uniform with a cold temperament turned his back to the cabin, lowered his head and raised his wrist, stroking his fingers, but brushed half an inch above the strings, without making a sound.

Li Yuanji drank a glass of fine wine with the beauty's catkin, and continued: "He thinks that if he can set up a unparalleled killing situation, he will really be invincible? But he doesn't know that the most powerful thing in this world is always power. Even if he is extremely smart and martial arts is world-class, isn't he vulnerable in the face of power?

"Put on the appearance of seeing fame and wealth like floating clouds, but forget that he himself is just lingering under the mercy of his father."

Sitting across from him was a middle-aged scribe, who also leaned comfortably in the beauty's arms, and said with a smile: "Your Highness said so."

"It's already precarious, and I don't know how to live in peace and contentment," Li Yuanji sneered, and said, "It's not good to provoke anyone, but to provoke Yin Hongfei. Who doesn't know that the emperor's ears are soft, especially on the bed, because Concubine Yin De has more people fawning over Yin Hongfei than this king—I played enough prestige that day, and now the retribution will come."

The middle-aged scholar said with a smile: "If Lin Ruo heard about it, he might complain about it. He just wanted to listen to her play the piano in the name of Mu Ke'er. Who would have thought that your highness 'just happened' to invite Mr. Yin to swim in the lake, and then 'It just so happened' that someone saw Ke'er and a young man in a Hu suit on the boat, and he 'slipped' and told Mr. Yin?"

Li Yuanji laughed loudly, full of pride in his laughter, and said: "He doesn't even think about it, how many people want to make him unlucky, and dare to go out to make public-even if there is no king, I am afraid that there will be a 'coincidence' that day Yin Hongfei's."

"Extremely extreme." The middle-aged scribe laughed for a while, and finally said: "I don't know what the situation in the hall is like now."

Li Yuanji lazily said: "What else can I do? It's nothing more than kneeling down, smashing my forehead, and forcing me to die! It depends on how much Lin Ruo is in Father Huang's heart—even if Pei Ji's weight is not enough, Plus so many courtiers, it should be almost the same? But it doesn’t matter if it fails today, with Lin Ruo’s temperament, it will be a matter of time to annoy the emperor again, and if we mention this matter again at that time, are you afraid that he will lose his head?”

After finishing speaking, he sighed again: "Such a beautiful head... What a pity. If he is a little more well-behaved, let alone the father and the second brother, even the elder brother and I, I am afraid that we will hold him in the palm of our hands... ..."

He was already a little drunk: "Chen Jia, you don't know, I have thought about it, as long as he is willing to play the piano for you, what's the point of being petty? What's the point of killing Pei Ji? I can pick the stars from the sky for him... I really thought about it, I don’t know how to be funny! He played the piano for his dead slave, but he refused to listen to him, and even kicked me... At that time, I wished I could dig that dead slave out of the soil, and I was so depressed. Ashes!"

"Forget it! It doesn't matter if you die, it's fine if you die! No one should worry about death!" Li Yuanji waved his hand boredly, and said: "Make trouble, make trouble, make trouble whatever you want, after all, it has nothing to do with you, if you don't pay back Are you 'grounded'? You can't get involved with anything! Come on, drink, drink!"

After several cups of drinking, Li Yuanji cheered up again, and said, "But I'm curious, who did the boat digging, and what kind of painting is that person looking for?"

Everyone knows that there is such a painting, but no one knows what kind of painting it is.

Chen Jiadao: "Who knows? Even the chief steward of the Pei family is confused. Among the things hidden by Mr. Pei, there are too many words and pictures. Except for Mr. Pei, even the chief steward has not read them one by one. Who knows which one is talking about? And the person only said that there is no frame and no signature, and there is no other word. In the eyes of the officials, it is likely that whoever fell into Mr. Pei's hands, seeing that Mr. Pei is gone, wants to take the opportunity to get it When I came back, who knew that I accidentally made a big mess, so I had to be a shrinking turtle."

After drinking a glass of wine, he suddenly smiled and said, "But speaking of unframed and unsigned paintings, there really is one."

"Oh?"

Chen Jiadao: "Your Highness forgot, didn't Lin Ruo draw a painting in the teahouse on the day Pei Ji died? After he left, Mr. Pei asked someone to confiscate the painting... Isn't it because it was not framed or signed?"

Li Yuanji scolded with a smile: "Damn, why can everything have something to do with him!"

Chen Jia also laughed, no one took what he said just now to heart: What is the value of stealing that painting?At most, in the name of Lin Ruojing's number one talented person, it's just a few dollars.

-

It was sunny and sunny outside, and the blue high sky was cloudless, but inside the Tai Chi Hall, it was like black clouds were overwhelming the city. It seemed that in the next moment, there would be an overwhelming storm that swept over the sky, making it difficult to even breathe.

Zhao Huaide, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, knelt on the ground, with blood stains on his forehead, his expression was agitated, and his words were fierce, full of tragic meaning: "Your Majesty, Lin Ruo's evil is obvious and appalling! Your Majesty! If you kill him in full view, The founding ministers cannot be brought to justice, how can there be any law and justice in this world? Isn’t the law of the Tang Dynasty a dead letter! Your majesty, the ministers know that your majesty loves this son’s talent, but the more talented he is, the more evil he is What's more...Your Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Hearing the loud voices around him, Zhao Huaide's expression became more and more intense, but his heart was determined. Zhao Huaide was not the only one kneeling here. His Majesty would not want to cover up that kid in such a situation, would he?

Don't say they don't believe in the dead people's dreams, even His Majesty knows it well, so they are correct and just!That ignorant kid, he deserves to die!

Thinking of the letter from Yin's family, and thinking of the little grandson who came back from the lake tour with Yin Hongfei that day and was so scared that he dared not go out for a few days, Zhao Huaide was furious!

They were born and died on the battlefield, or studied hard for dozens of years regardless of cold, heat and cold, and they got their status today because of their poverty. They are powerful and powerful, they are the people above others, and they can look down on the common people!

What is that kid, a commoner, an ant-like existence, but he is trying to shake their authority!If he relied on His Majesty's favor to obtain an official position to bully others, they wouldn't say anything, but no, that kid obviously didn't want anything, nothing!

There was Pei Ji in the front, and Yin Hongfei in the back, the existence they all looked up to and wanted to please, but one was killed and the other was threatened.

Reality made it impossible for him to turn a blind eye to Lin Ruo's existence. He killed Pei Ji as a personal grievance. After all, Pei Ji wanted to kill him first, but what about Yin Hongfei?

Yin Hongfei, who was invincible in Chang'an City, was scared out of his wits by his words... He had to be afraid. Even if he was powerful and wealthy, he only had one life. If his life was gone, everything would disappear. How could he not be afraid?

Yin Hongfei was scared, what about them?

They also only have one life, and they are only flesh and blood...so it is even more unbearable!

They are a hierarchical world divided by power and status. They finally climbed to the top of the tower, but they have to be cautious and humble in front of that powerless kid who should have been trampled under their feet?

So what are all the hard-earned things they have earned?

Will anyone with a knife in the future be able to lash out at them?

Lin Ruo must die!

Zhao Huaide kowtowed again: "Your Majesty, I beg you to put state affairs and righteousness first!"

Li Yuan didn't speak. He hadn't spoken for a long time. He looked at the group of people kneeling down with heavy eyes, watching them knock his forehead bloody, and even an old official cried Passed out, he didn't speak.

Li Jiancheng didn't say a word. He stood with his head down a few steps higher than the officials, with a stern look on his face, but a vague expectation arose in his heart: He didn't expect that these people would be so determined this time, as if they had been injected with chicken blood. He rushed forward regardless of everything... He originally believed that Li Yuan would not be willing to kill Lin Ruo, but now he is not so sure... With so many people remonstrating, maybe the emperor is not so firm anymore?

Work harder!Kowtow a few more heads!It's best to kill one or two, so maybe the father will kill him?

kill him!Yes, kill him.

He once signaled Dali Temple Minister to give him some trouble and let him slander Li Shimin, but he also personally found water for him in Dali Temple, and he even rode a horse to see his school boy off outside the city... As a prince, Isn't he doing enough?As a family member of his vassal, what is it to suffer so little grievance?What is a dead book boy?But he didn't know what's good and what's wrong, he was relentless, he turned a blind eye to his overtures, and he insisted on killing Dali Siqing and Pei Ji!

Such a wolf-hearted, unfamiliar kid, he deserves to die!

According to Wei Zheng's plan, it was time for him to kneel down at this time, say a few "fair words" to Lin Ruo, and give Li Yuan a step down, but he didn't say a word: Wei Zheng is very good, but he is Lin Boyuan's friend, he regards him as If Lin Ruo is his nephew, he naturally faces them!Moreover, they didn't know that the situation would develop like this before, and they didn't expect that these ministers would die together... If they really gave the father a step, wouldn't it be a pity to miss the best time to kill Lin Ruo?

If Ruolin is a person who knows how to be grateful, he doesn't mind saving his life at this time. After all, Pei Ji is already dead, so if the kid is on his side, he can support half of Pei Ji, right?But he is clearly a white-eyed wolf, what are you doing to save him?

Li Shimin also stood a little higher than the others, standing opposite Li Jiancheng on one left and one on the right. He looked at the minister kneeling and shouting excitedly, and secretly sighed: These people are doomed to fail.

Not counting the things he sent to Li Yuan when he entered the palace last night according to Lin Ruo's request, it was impossible to get things done just based on their attitude at the moment.

He knows about Yin Hongfei and understands why these people are so excited... They are rich and powerful, competing for power, power, and favor, to win over, frame, and pull pigtails... This is the rule of the game between them, but Lin Ruo , but ignores the existence of the rules and directly threatens their lives. More importantly, Lin Ruo has no power and power, and is a commoner who should be trampled under their feet!

So they united as one, and wanted to eradicate the person who broke the rules, but unfortunately, the emperor would not understand their thoughts: they thought they were nobler than Lin Ruo, so they couldn't tolerate Lin Ruo's existence. In the royal family, no one is more noble than anyone else, and Lin Ruo, whom he admires and loves, is more important than them, so Lin Ruo bullies them... nothing wrong!What's more, Li Yuan thought he knew Lin Ruo, that innocent and harmless young man was forced to bite someone at most, how could he bully others?

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Yuan's expression became more and more ugly, he was a little puzzled: let alone there is no hard evidence, so what if there is hard evidence, he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, even if he made it clear that he was protecting someone, so what?It was as if if he let Lin Ruo go, Datang would be destroyed!Back then when Pei Ji ran away from the enemy and lost the land of Longxing in the Tang Dynasty, he was spared the crime of confiscating his family and exterminating his family, why didn't he see these people die for a while?

Why can't these people tolerate Lin Ruo?

Such a wonderful child, as long as he thinks about it, he will smile knowingly, soften his heart, and feel distressed... Why can't he tolerate him?

He was originally shocked and angry at Lin Ruo killing Pei Ji, but now, this anger has long since been tossed away by these people.

An indignant voice echoed in his mind again: "My lords want to kill Lin Ruo, is it out of personal anger or the national law?" That was Lin Boyuan's questioning to them ten days ago.

Is it for personal indignation, or national law?

Personal anger, or national law?

Glancing at the box placed in the corner of the dragon case that Li Shimin just presented last night, Li Yuan sneered: He originally thought that Pei Ji was dead, and let those things pass, but now it seems that those who want to be relentless are simply not him.

Dou Chengji was also kneeling, but he was not among the group of people begging for his life. He looked a little anxious: the painting was in his sleeve, but he didn't find a chance to speak. Li Jiancheng should have kept silent at this moment, so he had no choice but to continue to wait.

"Father," finally a different voice sounded, Li Shimin strode up to Li Yuan, and knelt down a few steps closer to the others: "I think this case has not been solved yet, so let's talk about punishing the real culprit now." , it is too early to say."

Exactly the same rhetoric as Lin Boyuan!Zhao Huaide's expression turned serious, before he could say any impassioned words, Li Shimin said again: "I know that all the adults think Lin Ruo is like a murderer, but in fact, this king... also thinks he is more like a murderer."

Everyone was taken aback. Which side is this King Qin on?

However, he couldn’t be happy. Thinking back, Lin Boyuan was like this. He seemed weak when he spoke, but when he changed his voice, everyone was speechless. Sure enough, His Royal Highness King Qin spoke again after a pause for a while, with a sonorous voice. Youli: "However, no matter how similar it is, there is no solid evidence. Resemblance is resemblance, not 'yes'! The laws of my Tang Dynasty are like a mountain. If even such a shocking case is involved, whoever is more like the murderer will be convicted. What's the use? If this trend spreads in the future, officials will do whatever they want, and our Tang Dynasty will be in danger!"

He clasped his fists and said: "I am willing to invite my father to choose a capable minister. I will thoroughly investigate this case and find out the real culprit so that the law of the country can be brought to light! Don't let things go hastily, causing endless disasters."

Li Yuan still didn't speak.

Li Shimin used "Great Tang Jiangshan" as a cover, and no one dared to answer for a while, Li Shentong snorted coldly and said: "Since King Qin also thinks that Lin Ruo is the murderer, shouldn't he be taken to the prison for interrogation according to the law?" ?”

Li Shimin asked back: "When did the father say that Lin Ruo is not allowed to be interrogated? In the past ten days, has Mr. Dou never questioned Lin Ruo? Or did the interrogation mentioned by the emperor refer to torture? If so, there is no need to go to it deliberately." If Lin Ruo is arrested, he simply locks up some of the ministers in the hall at random, and after several severe punishments, it is impossible for everyone to confess that Mr. Pei was killed by him."

Li Shentong snorted coldly: "How to interrogate without punishment? If His Royal Highness Qin thinks that I look like a murderer, you can arrest me for interrogation!"

Zhao Huaide couldn't help but secretly sighed: This Li Shentong is good at fighting, but other superiors... the last time they lost, they were defeated by his mouth. They are really pig teammates. This time, someone led the conversation to the trial again!If this continues, the result will only be exactly the same as last time, nothing will happen!

In fact, even His Majesty has decided in his heart that Lin Ruo is the murderer, what a trial!What we want is Fa-rectification, Fa-rectification!

What is there no hard evidence?As long as you don't mention the damn dream, just because Lin Ruo knew that Pei Ji died of hemp rope, and because he paid homage to his bookboy at the place where Pei Ji died before everyone knew what happened, that's all. Condemn him!

King Qin can use "Great Tang Jiangshan" as a cover, so can he: If whoever kills someone in the future will push the murderer to the dead, then the world will really be in chaos!

Zhao Huaide was about to speak when he was ready to speak, but he saw Dou Chengji took two steps forward, knelt beside Li Shimin, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Li Yuan turned his gaze to him, and finally said, "Say."

Dou Chengji kowtowed his head and said: "I am incompetent. I have not been able to solve the mystery of Mr. Pei's death. The case of looting at the pier has already been figured out." He can't wait any longer. It's time to "select another capable minister".

Zhao Huaide thumped, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart—everyone knew the key to the looting. Now that Dou Chengji brought up this matter, could it be that he was going to burn the boat?

-

The Taiji Palace is full of swords and swords, but some places are peaceful.

Although the Lin family's yard is not big enough to attract running water, there is also a small rockery pavilion, where Lin Ruo sits and throws copper coins.There are many thin ropes tied to the tree three feet away from the gazebo, and a copper plate is hung under each thin rope. The long thin ropes flutter in the wind, like wicker. Lin Ruo’s goal is these thin ropes. No, the accuracy is good, but it's still too early to cut the string with an ordinary copper plate—it's okay to use a sawtooth.

"Master," Lin Chuan's sawtooth copper plate made a contribution, but he had something on his mind, and he didn't even feel complacent: "Why don't the subordinates go to investigate again?"

Lin Ruo shook her head and said, "The news from the palace is not so easy to inquire about. I'll ask after we're gone."

If you break up, you might lose your life!Lin Chuan didn't dare to say this, so he could only sigh: "Master, don't you care?"

"Concern!" Lin Ruosu flew out a copper coin and said, "Actually, I'm really curious whether the story Dou Chengji tells is wonderful or not."

Lin Chuan was taken aback: "Tell a story?"

Lin Chuan was at a loss: Did he and his young master say the same thing?

"That's right," Lin Ruo said, "If he didn't tell the story, could he have told the emperor that this painting was given to me by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? If so, the Crown Prince was the first to kill him."

"But in fact, there is nothing to look forward to. As the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, the stories I tell must be very boring, as if they really happened." Lin Ruo smiled and said: "Of course, this is why I gave the story to him. The reason for making it up!"

Making up stories is also very tiring, okay, who else can "make up" stories better than the person in charge of the prison?
