Chapter 14

Yu Xiao followed Lin Zijin to the mansion in the mountain forest, no matter what Yu Xiao shouted behind him, Lin Zijin just walked forward without even looking back.In desperation, Yu Xiao grabbed Lin Zijin's right hand and made him stop.

"Zijin, are you hating me?"

"I don't hate, there is love to hate."

The eyes that should have been clear became sharp at that moment. These words were more uncomfortable than admitting hatred directly. It seemed that Yu Xiao almost didn't know the person in front of him. It was the first time he saw him in men's clothing. The first time I heard him talk to me in his original voice, the first time I realized that his heart was actually more seriously hurt than I thought.

Lin Zijin withdrew his hand, but didn't want to disturb the wound, so he let out a muffled snort.Only then did Yu Xiao realize that his hands were also covered with Zijin's blood, and that he had hurt him again, and his heart ached. He had promised to protect him forever, but all the pain on his body was caused by himself.Yu Xiao caught up with Lin Zijin who was walking forward and stopped him.

"Your wound needs to be bandaged!"

"Don't worry about it."

Lin Zijin walked to the bedroom, closed the door after entering, and kept Yu Xiao out.But how could a mere door stop Yu Xiao, he took the gold medicine and gauze and entered the room from the roof. After all, he was injured by himself, and he wanted to treat him himself.

Yu Xiao's qinggong was so good that he barely made a sound, while Lin Zijin was pouring wine on the wound alone in the room, sweating profusely from the pain, and had no time to care about other things.

Seeing this appearance, Yu Xiao felt extremely painful in his heart. He didn't even dare to think about how Lin Zijin got through when he was seriously injured and fled out of the city alone, so he quickly stepped forward to embrace Lin Zijin and hugged him in his arms.Lin Zijin was frightened by the sudden embrace, and pushed Yu Xiao away forcefully, and hurt the wound again during the struggle, Yu Xiao had no choice but to let go.

"Let me see the wound and I'll bandage it for you."

"I said no need, you go out!"

Yu Xiao ignored Lin Zijin's scolding, took his hand, and sprinkled Jinchuang medicine on the wound, Lin Zijin was so painful that he couldn't speak.

"Bite me if it hurts." Yu Xiao patted his shoulder, indicating that he could bite there.

Lin Zijin shook his head, he no longer wanted to have any dependence on the man in front of him.

"You know I'm alive, are you going to kill me?"

Lin Zijin endured the pain and asked, Yu Xiao knew that in Lin Zijin's heart, he was just a cruel man who didn't miss old feelings.

"Zijin, I know I was wrong. I have regretted it so much this year. When I found out that you were not dead, I was so happy! You can forgive me and come back to the palace with me."

"I won't go back. The palace belongs to Lin Xiangyao, and the imperial court belongs to Lin Zijin. Both of them died a year ago. I'm just Nanfeng, the head of Yumen Hall."

Yu Xiao didn't answer any more, because of self-blame and guilt, he didn't even dare to look into Lin Zijin's eyes, he could only look at the bandage where the gauze was gently wrapped around.

"Since you don't intend to kill me, then we will go our separate ways. You should return to the court to be your emperor, and I will continue to be my hall master here."

"Did you know that the few officials you killed were in collusion with Liu Dan from the Ministry of Industry?"

"I know, they all want to use Liu Dan's hand to climb up, but they don't know that they are just being used by Liu Dan."

"Then if you continue to act like this and attract Liu Dan's attention, won't you be afraid that he will attack with his own army?"

"Then you know, when I was in the palace, because I cut off Liu Dan's fortune, he sent people to hunt and kill me everywhere. How difficult it is to avoid the killer sent by Liu Dan! He wants me to die, so I will start by cutting off his money in the south of the Yangtze River, slowly lure him over, and then kill him."

"Zijin, you have changed, you were obviously more gentle and more..."

"That's because I didn't experience the feeling of despair at that time. I'm tired, Your Majesty, please go easy."

Lin Zijin lay on the bed with her back to Yu Xiao, unwilling to speak any more.Yu Xiao had no choice but to leave the room and stop disturbing him. He was the one who turned him into what he is today. He could have been a high-spirited general on the battlefield instead of a mere bandit leader. How can I make up for his heart? missing part?

After returning to the room assigned to him in Yumen Hall, Qingyan was already waiting in the room.

"Your Majesty, I just learned from Xu Rengao that there is Liu Dan's secret army here in Suzhou. As long as we break through it, there is no need to worry about Liu Dan's strength."

Xu Rengao was deeply grieved because his father was killed by him. Qingyan told him that as long as he can confess the evidence of collusion with Liu Dan, he and his mother can be protected.Xu Rengao left the Xu Mansion, but he was just a worthless cripple. He had no choice but to cooperate with Qingyan's request, so he handed over to Qingyan the account books that he had colluded with the Ministry of Industry for many years and stolen people's tax money, and told Qingyan He took the position of Liu Dan's private soldier.

"However, if we wait for our army to arrive, the first is that there will be too much movement, and the second is that the delay will be too long. So judging from the current situation, we cannot use our own troops."

"The emperor, isn't this opportunity going to be missed?"

"No, there is another way, but first we have to sleep first."

Early the next morning, Yu Xiao went to Lin Zijin's room to look for him, but there was no one there, because Lin Zijin went to deal with Xu Wei's family property after his death, so Yu Xiao had to wait in the room for him to come back.

This wait is one day, Lin Zijin was tired all day, and when he returned to his room, he saw Yu Xiao sitting at the table waiting for him, just like when he proposed to sleep with him that day, in order to avoid him, he insisted on staying behind. After wandering around the garden for several hours, Yu Xiao did not return to the palace as he wished, and still waited for him for a long time like today.

"What do you want me for?"

"I want you to do me a favor."

"what?"

"Liu Dan's private soldiers are in Suzhou. I want to borrow your Yumen Hall's men to attack there."

"Why do I borrow from you?"

"I didn't attack Liu Dan for a long time in the court because I didn't know how many private soldiers he had and how strong he was. But this time, as long as he wiped out his barracks, I can use him to collude with Xu Wei and corrupt Let him behead you for the crime of common people's money, and besides, that Liu Dan has harmed you like this, I will let him die without a whole body."

"I can obviously wait for him to come slowly, and then assassinate him, why send so many brothers to attack the barracks?"

"This is the most secure way. If Liu Dan doesn't come to Suzhou for a day, you will wait for him for a day? What if he doesn't come for a lifetime?"

Although Lin Zijin understood that what Yu Xiao said was not unreasonable, but he resisted in his heart to cooperate with him, because he kept telling himself not to have anything to do with Yu Xiao.Seeing that Lin Zijin didn't agree, Yu Xiao still didn't accept any of his intentions, so he had no choice but to show his last hole card—threat.

"There are hundreds of people in this Yumen Hall, all of whom are important criminals arrested by the government. As long as I notify the local officials, will the people in this Yumen Hall escape?"

"You!" Lin Zijin immediately pulled out the saber from his waist and swung it towards Yu Xiao's neck. Although the artery was not injured, but because of the sharp wind of the sword, the skin around the knife was traumatized and a little blood flowed out.Although this Yumen Hall is all desperadoes, they are all a group of people who were framed by the government and forced to become bandits. Perhaps because of the feeling of sympathy, he has always regarded the people of Yumen Hall as his relatives. Now being threatened by others, Lin Zijin suddenly became angry.

"Don't forget, you are now on my territory, and I can kill you anytime!"

"Yes, you can kill me at any time, but once you do, Qingyan will definitely notify the imperial court as soon as possible, and the Yumen Hall will still be unable to escape."

Lin Zijin's chest kept rising and falling, restraining his anger. He should have known that Yu Xiao stayed here just to use him. The government, I will definitely not allow it.

"Okay, I promise you. But! After the matter is done, you must promise to let any of them go."

"I promise."
