bright sheath

The two went back to the main hall together, and before they arrived, they heard Wang Ningzhi's giggles from a distance, and Chen Nian's exaggerated cries from time to time.

"It's amazing, Xiao Ningzhi, who taught you how to kick shuttlecock, how can you kick so much, I can't even kick it."

"No one taught me. My father is busy all day long. No one plays with me. I learned this from watching Dongxiang Xiaonan and the others play. It's very simple. Shall I teach you?"

"Okay, later on, after you have taught Sister Cuiyan and me, someone will play with you. Then we can play relay!"

"What is a relay?"

"Uh...you kick me and I kick sister Cuiyan..."

"Okay! Okay! Then you learn quickly!" He clapped his hands excitedly.

When Chen Yunyu and the other two entered, they saw the old prince sitting on the sidelines, holding a cup of tea on his mobile phone, fidgeting on the carved wooden chair, and kept glancing at the few people who were having fun.

He pretended to cough inadvertently, and the old prince glanced over, sat up straight and said with a sullen face: "Don't even think about that, I'll leave tomorrow, you can take a good look at the house in the mansion, everything that suits you will be done." I will leave it to you to take charge, and if something goes wrong, I will not break your leg when you come back."

"..." Chen Yunyu's face darkened quickly, so many, is he shameless?

"Father, we need a long-term plan for going to Beijing..." After finishing speaking, he motioned for Cuiyan to glance at him. Cuiyan nodded, and soon coaxed Wang Ningzhi to go to the side hall. Rushing back with short legs, Cuiyan chased after her with her skirt blushing and apologetic.

The little guy was not slippery, he broke free from the hand that held his arm, and rushed to the old prince like a small pinball, grabbed his sleeve and raised his head, saying: "Uncle, uncle, your house is so big! , can you avenge my father?"

The old prince was a little astonished, looked at Chen Yunyu and said angrily: "What's going on?" How many things did this little bastard not tell him?

Chen Yunyu raised his forehead, and Ling Yanchi picked up Wang Ningzhi and pinched his face, saying: "Xiao Ningzhi, be good and we will help you avenge you, you know, it's time to go to school and read, go with sister Cuiyan How is the study?"

Wang Ningzhi glanced at him half-understood, then looked at the old prince, then reached out to Cuiyan to hug him, Cuiyan was so excited that she was about to cry, she kept nodding at Ling Yanchi to thank him.

When she left, Ling Yanchi whispered to her: "Miss, don't be cautious, the prince doesn't eat people."

Cuiyan lowered her head, her face was a little red, Ling Yanchi left Chen Nian inadvertently, seeing that the man puffed up his cheeks and looked aggrieved, he clenched his fists, covered his mouth and smiled, walked to Chen Yunyu's side with peace of mind.

As soon as the little guy left, the old prince said with a straight face: "Tell me, I'll listen with my ears. If you don't make it clear today, don't talk about going to the capital. Don't leave the palace. You ran away from home a few days ago and I thought you were upset." It's good to go to relax, and I didn't blame you when I came back. What's the matter with this child now, if there is any grievance, let him solve it. When did I teach you to tolerate adultery when I raised you so old?"

Chen Yunyu was scolded bloody, couldn't help but said stubbornly: "I didn't condone traitors!" Ling Yanchi saw that there was a faint quarrel between the big and the young, and it seemed that this matter couldn't be hidden, so he hurriedly told him Yitao stopped behind him and saluted: "My lord, please calm down. This matter has nothing to do with the son. He saved the child when he was passing by Qingzhou. He happened to visit and brought the son with him."

Only then did the old prince turn pale, he took a sip of the tea and said, "What's going on, what happened in Qingzhou?"

Only then did he tell the story of what he had seen and heard all the way in detail. After hearing this, the old prince said with a sullen face: "Who is this new governor of Qingzhou?"

"Father, it's inconvenient for us to interfere no matter who it is, we can only report this matter to the imperial court."

Unexpectedly, the old prince trembled angrily when he heard this, his mustache flew around, and he said angrily: "I'm afraid he won't succeed! These dogs are good people, if they don't deserve it, they must be dogs. See if I don't find someone to clean him up! "

Why is he acting like a bandit when he is obviously a prince?

"..." Ling Yanchi was obviously stunned for a while, and couldn't help but look at Chen Yunyu behind him, and saw that this person had a blank face, which was obviously commonplace.

He couldn't help deliberating and said: "My lord, do you think this is good? Everything is based on evidence. Officials in Qingzhou are looking for Wang Ningzhi precisely because he has an account book in his arms, which records everything in detail. The details of these people accepting bribes, as long as these things are presented, they can uproot all the people..."

"There is such a thing, hurry up and let the child hand it over, and tomorrow I will take it to Beijing and go directly to the emperor." The old prince's eyes were bright, and he was obviously much more excited.

"Father!" Chen Yunyu couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted directly, "Did you forget that you are the king of Liao, and Qingzhou is the fief of King Qi, do you think it's not enough for you to extend your hand to someone else's fief like this?" Duo, have you forgotten your mother!"

Although he knew that his father was the one who suffered the most from his mother's death, but countless times, countless times, an idea would always pop up in his heart: If his father could be more tactful back then, he could find a way to make up a reason to make up the trip to Suzhou. After a while, will his mother not have to die... He knew it was wrong to think so, but he couldn't help it every time.

He immediately yelled at the old prince, stopped drinking the tea, drooped his head like a defeated rooster, and murmured: "Why are you still talking about your mother..."

Ling Yanchi tugged at his sleeve, Chen Yunyu turned her face away and said, "I'll go to the capital this time, I don't want to receive an imperial edict to confiscate the house when I come back."

Ling Yanchi pretended not to hear these words, and walked behind him. He hesitated for a while in the corridor and said: "What you just said was a bit serious."

Chen Yunyu smiled wryly, leaning on the side of the corridor, staring at the branches that had all given up flowers and said: "You know what? My father is good in every way, but he has a fatal weakness. He has an upright personality and doesn't know how to deal with others at all. , let alone think about the various forces around him... Every time he goes to Beijing to meet with me, I panic, lest the next time he comes back will be an imperial decree. To do things, the necks of the hundreds of people in the Liao Palace can't just hang on his mouth."

A few words express how much panic and grievance, Ling Yanchi can almost imagine what Chen Yunyu felt like when he was a child, but he really understands the feeling of walking on thin ice with rich clothes and fine food.

"These years...you have worked hard." He patted his shoulder lightly.

Chen Yunyu sat still and asked him, "Are you determined to go to the capital?"

"Go, the two of you have a discussion, don't worry, I will never hold you back, you just need to concentrate on dealing with it."

After taking a nap in the afternoon, Ling Yanchi slipped to Wang Ningzhi's residence in the side hall. There were a few green bamboos planted in the yard, which were reflected by the window and surrounded by small fences. It was refreshing and pleasant. The faint fragrance, he saw that the little guy looked like he had just woken up, he was still dazed sitting on the bed, the incense was still burning on the table, but the emerald smoke went to nowhere, the little guy moved down when he saw him enter the room The bed hugged his legs and said: "Big brother, I dreamed about my father again, and he bought me cloud cakes to eat, but I woke up before I could eat them."

Ling Yanchi half squatted down, patted his back and said softly: "That's a pity, but it's okay, if you want to eat, go to the front and ask uncle to buy it for you, it's enough!"

"Really?"

"Really, Lagou doesn't lie to you." He stretched out his little finger to hook the little guy, and the little guy stretched out his hand with peace of mind. Ling Yanchi said again, "Now the big brother is going to avenge you, let me ask you a few questions." Question, answer truthfully, do you know, did your father give you a ledger?"

Wang Ningzhi shook his head and said: "That's not the account book, it's the book I usually read. Uncle Wang gave it to me when he brought me out. I don't know why he brought this, because he was afraid that I would be bored in the cellar. Why, but there is obviously no light in the cellar?"

Ling Yanchi was a little dumbfounded. Although he discovered the existence of this thing at the beginning, he didn't let the child take it out. He was afraid that he would be hurt by the scene, so he just made a simple guess based on the attitudes of the officers, soldiers and people around him. Could it be that he was wrong? up?

"Where is the book, show it to brother, and see what words you have recognized?"

"Here, here you are." The little guy took out the crumpled paper in his arms, and Ling Yanchi flipped through it casually, and found a bunch of numbers and Chinese characters written on it in a jerky but serious handwriting. It's confusing.

Ling Yanchi then asked him: "Why don't you write it page by page, your father won't scold you for writing such a mess?"

"You won't scold me! My father said that every page has to be written to look good, so he taught me to change the place for every word. I have a good memory. Look, I can recognize this character. This is the character Liu. After finishing speaking, he turned a few pages and said, "This is the character Min. My father taught me these two characters that afternoon. Look at the character Yang again..."

It turned out to be the case.

Soon Wang Ningzhi named a dozen or so names, and Ling Yanchi wrote down the order one by one, and asked him softly, "Do you still remember what words you wrote without this notebook?"

"I remember, I remember, I said I have a good memory."

Father's love is boundless. In fact, there is no difference between whether there is this account book or not. Everything is in Wang Ningzhi's head, but this thing has become his amulet. Those who have it in it dare not arrest people blatantly, lest this so-called His book was exposed in broad daylight. Presumably this lord had already foreseen his fate when he investigated these dirty things, and he found a way out for his son early on. Even the servant knew the inside story. The existence of the account book was revealed at the right time, which led to a drastic change in the attitude of the officers and soldiers...

Isn't it just that God has no eyes, and all good people are dead.

He patted the child's back to reassure him: "Big brother is leaving, and brother Yunyu is leaving too. Don't be afraid if you stay in the mansion. Everyone here will protect you. If you need anything, go to sister Cuiyan. Look for brother Chen Nian, that uncle this morning is the most capable person in this house, remember to coax him well at home, and he will buy you a lot of delicious food, you understand?"

The little guy nodded. Ling Yanchi scratched his nose and carried him out to find Cuiyan. When he walked to the window, he saw Chen Nian and her stepping into the yard together. He chuckled and joked: "I see How about taking a good and auspicious day tomorrow to handle your matter?"

"Mr. Ling, what nonsense!" Chen Nian muttered awkwardly, and took the opportunity to glance at Cuiyan beside him.

"Oh... how nice to be young~" He sighed in a sour tone, and stuffed the little meatball Wang Ningzhi into his arms, and then he disappeared.

There is still a tough battle to fight, and I have to look back to see how much medicine is left...
