Your Majesty, I know I was wrong

Chapter 22

Yu Xiao announced Dong Yuan's falsified accounts in the hall, dismissed him from the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials and exiled him to the frontier, so that all the officials in the court took warning, and the matter came to an end.

Because no one participated in the meeting, the court meeting ended earlier. When Yu Xiao returned to the palace, he happened to see Lin Zijin practicing sword in the courtyard, which aroused his desire to play, so he took Qingyan's sword and quietly went forward to meet Lin Zijin. Come on.

Suffering a sudden attack, Lin Zijin stabbed at the opponent's life gate with his backhand. After seeing that it was Yu Xiao, he had no time to stop. The sword approached Yu Xiao's neck inch by inch. When he thought it would hurt him, Yu Xiao quickly blocked it. He fired his sword, and then attacked Lin Zijin's weak point.

It turned out that he wanted to practice swords with him. After Lin Zijin realized it, he unceremoniously used all the sword moves he had learned in the past 20 years. Although every move was coherent and powerful, in front of Yu Xiao, all the moves were cracked , had no opportunity to take advantage of, and was completely guided by him to make a move.

Lin Zijin felt a little reconciled, and fought back and forth with Yu Xiao for dozens of rounds, hitting the branch from the ground. Lin Zijin was ready to use the power of the branch to rush towards Yu Xiao, but he didn't want to cause the pain from last night So he staggered on the tree and couldn't stand firmly. Fortunately, Yu Xiao had quick eyesight and quick hands. He immediately went forward to support Lin Zijin, grabbed his waist, and brought him to the ground.

"Are you all right?"

"No... nothing."

Lin Zijin quickly avoided Yu Xiao, as soon as he smelled Yu Xiao's scent, he would recall what happened last night, his face flushed again, and he quickly changed the topic.

"By the way, today is fifteen, the street must be very lively."

"Yes, there are lanterns tonight, let's go and see them together?"

"OK!"

Seeing Lin Zijin's happy expression, Yu Xiao smiled fondly at him.This time the lantern invitation is like a feast that has been arranged for a long time, which makes people look forward to it.

As the sky was getting darker, Lin Zijin couldn't wait for Yu Xiao to wear it. After all, he was an emperor, and he had to go out of the palace in modest clothes to watch the lanterns. Yu Xiao was wearing a black python robe with narrow sleeves, with gold thread auspicious clouds embroidered on the cuffs, and a red and white jade belt around his waist. A white jade exquisite waistband was hung on it, and an ink-colored cloak was put on. The collar of the cloak was made of fox fur, which could not conceal the imperial demeanor at all.

Lin Zijin couldn't help being a little dazed, no wonder the beauty in the harem went out of her way to meet Yu Xiao, not as a favor, but because of the fateful meeting in these three lives.

"Then let's go!"

"Wait, put this on."

Yu Xiao put the same cloak on him.This kind of emperor is the only one who is gentle with himself, even though there is still light snow falling outside, Lin Zijin doesn't feel the cold at all, the luckiest thing is that he was born at the right time, and the luckiest thing is to hold his hand.

The streets tonight are much more festive than usual. Red lanterns are hung on the eaves and bridges, and lotus lanterns are placed in the river.The crowds on the street were crowded, and the noises filled my ears, which made me happy too. Lin Zijin saw the children chasing each other in the street with their own lanterns in their hands, and remembered that he and Lin Xiangyao were doing the same in the past. The two sneaked out to play, and after being discovered by Lin Shujiu, Zijin protected his younger sister, and was punished to kneel in the courtyard alone, Xiangyao was by his side, crying for a long time, recalling the past, Lin Zijin couldn't help laughing.

"So happy?"

"You can't participate in the Lantern Festival crying."

"Then how about I decorate Qixiao Hall with lanterns everywhere in the future?"

Lin Zijin ignored Yu Xiao's teasing, smelled the sweetness of candied haws, and heard the cries of street vendors.Can't help but be attracted by the juggling on the side, there is a scene of swallowing a knife, Lin Zijin is surprised to see it.

"Yu Xiao, look!"

Lin Zijin subconsciously wanted to pull the people around her, but found that the surroundings were full of unfamiliar faces, and there was no sign of Yu Xiao beside her.

Are you separated?

He wanted to go back, but because everyone was crowded to watch the juggling, it was difficult to move in the crowd, so Lin Zijin had to look for Yu Xiao with his eyes, so he didn't notice his feet, and accidentally stepped on the man beside him.

"Feel sorry!"

Because his eyes were low, when Lin Zijin was apologizing, he happened to see someone take something from the man.

"Where's your purse?!"

"what?"

Although the man didn't react, he searched himself according to Lin Zijin's instructions, but as Lin Zijin expected, he didn't find the money bag.

"Little thief, don't run!"

Lin Zijin reached out to catch the thief, but was trapped in the crowd because of the crowd, but the thief nimbly escaped from the crowd. In desperation, in order to catch up with the escaped thief, Lin Zijin took off the mask that hindered her movement. Cloak, stepped on the shoulders of the predecessors and flew away with light work.

He grabbed the pearl necklace sold on the street vendor, tore it apart, and popped pearls one by one with his fingers to hit the thief's leg, causing the thief to kneel down and fall to the ground.

"Forgive me! Forgive me, hero!"

The thief knew that he had encountered an expert this time, so he knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Give me back the purse!"

"I'll pay it back!"

"Stop stealing like this from now on!"

"I know, never again, never again! Please let me go!"

"Let's go!"

Lin Zijin let the thief go, and after getting back the purse, he was about to go back and return it to the man just now, but he was stopped by someone, the owner of the shop.

"Don't go! You have to pay me for the silver of my pearl necklace!"

"This... I... that... can I pay on credit? I'm too anxious to go out today, and I don't have any money with me."

When he went out, he didn't expect to be separated from Yu Xiao, so he left all the money with Yu Xiao, and he was penniless.

"Don't you have a purse?"

"This is not mine, I have to give it back to someone else."

"I don't care, anyway, you must give me the money today!"

"I……"

"How much? I'll give it."

Looking for the reputation, it is the man whose money bag was stolen just now.

"A tael of silver."

The man gave the people around him a wink, and the people around him took out a piece of silver from their pockets and gave it to the boss. Hawkers have always been in small businesses, and it is rare for them to earn a piece of silver. Seeing so many All the money belonged to him, thinking in his mind how many pearl necklaces he would have to sell to earn so much, he was so happy that he let go of Lin Zijin with nods and bows.

"Thank you."

After Lin Zijin thanked the man, she handed him the money bag embroidered with gold thread in red color.

"I am, thank you."

The man handed him the black cloak that Lin Zijin had taken off, but Lin Zijin completely forgot about the cloak. The feeling of exchanging items made him feel a little funny. Lin Zijin took the cloak, and the man said He made a gift.

"May I ask what your name is?"

"Lin Zijin."

Zi Jin wanted to ask the other party's name, but at this time someone patted his shoulder, he turned his head and found that it was Qing Yan.

"Young master is waiting for you by the river."

"Well, I'll go right away." Knowing that Yu Xiao was waiting for him, Lin Zijin hugged the man and left with Qingyan.

But he didn't know that the man behind him was looking at him and smiled inexplicably, and whispered a few words to the people beside him.

"Help me investigate him."

"Yes!"

By the river, you can see lotus lanterns flowing down the water. The small lanterns carry the wishes of the people who put them up. Whether it is blessing, marriage, or well-being, they can be passed to heaven as the lanterns burn out.

Xiao Zhuyin followed far away,

Pity the spear and have a heart.

An Neng meets again,

It seems that people go back.

Lin Zijin looked at Yu Xiao holding a lantern in his hand, holding a pen in his right hand, and putting the written lantern into the water, causing ripples as it drifted away with the waves.

"What did you write?"

"you guess."

"The world is peaceful?"

"In your eyes, do I only have the world?"

"That's what you should do."

Yu Xiao smiled, although Lin Zijin's idea of ​​not putting himself first in other people's hearts made Yu Xiao very helpless, but he was also very grateful, grateful that Lin Zijin could understand him, after all, he is a king and cannot abandon the people of the country Regardless.

"What do you wish for?"

Yu Xiao handed the lantern to Lin Zijin, but Lin Zijin took it and put it directly into the river.

"Why don't you make a wish?"

"I'm done."

"..."

"The world is peaceful~"

"Hahaha."

Yu Xiao laughed out loud, his wish was "Xiao Jin is safe", and he understood that only in a prosperous age, two people can love each other with peace of mind, if the world is in chaos, then Lin Zijin will lead the troops to defend the battle as a general , and the two will also be separated from each other, worrying about each other's safety. At that time, will there still be a leisurely scene of watching lanterns?This unfulfilled wish was actually discovered by Lin Zijin.

"You can always get me into your groove."

Yu Xiao hugged Lin Zijin, in the dark corner by the river, the faces of the two could not be seen clearly in the night, only the sound of the heartbeat was heard, and the world was also shaken.
