Back in Shifang City, Yu Xiao led his troops to the Ji Mansion to arrest the mastermind without any delay.

After arriving at the Ji Mansion, three thousand soldiers obeyed orders and surrounded the mansion, while Yu Xiao walked in alone.Stepping into the front hall, he saw the Taifu sitting at the reception table, holding a teacup in his hand, tasting it calmly, still looking like a big family.

"Your Majesty, please sit down."

There were also teacups on the other side of the reception table, obviously for Yu Xiao.In the face of great difficulties, only the Taifu can be so calm.

"How long has it been since you drank tea with the teacher like this?"

"The emperor is busy with court affairs, so he certainly doesn't remember my little courtyard."

"No, I remember. I remember that the teacher once taught me the Four Books and Five Classics, the righteousness of heaven, how to govern, how to be a person, how to worry about the government and the people, how to protect the family and the country." Yu Xiao took a sip of tea, "Yes Teacher, you forgot."

"Forgot? Oh, I have been here for more than fifty years. I have been here for half a lifetime. What I have brought to the court is a lifetime of talent, but what has the court given me? On the surface, the ministers of the court respect me, but Everyone knows that I just have a position of dignity and no real power!"

"Teacher, when did you become so chasing fame and fortune?"

"It is the world that has betrayed me, and I will certainly fail the world."

In fact, the Taifu just wanted to prove his talent to the world, because he was unwilling to be lost in the crowd, so he tried to usurp the throne, ascend to the highest position, and let the world witness his brilliance with his own eyes.

He just felt lonely half his life.

Yu Xiao sighed and stood up.

"Teacher, it's time to hit the road."

The Taifu didn't argue or struggle, as if he had seen through the doom of the world, and decided that this fate was right. After all, there are three thousand generals around the mansion, so how can they resist?

He got up without moving the dust, and when he was about to follow Yu Xiao out, a woman rushed in from outside the mansion through the guard of the general, and knelt down in front of Yu Xiao.

"Your Majesty, please read it for the sake of what your father taught you, and please forgive me!"

After Ji Qiu heard in the palace that Yu Xiao was leading the army, she hurriedly ordered her servants to prepare the carriage and drive over. She knelt down and kowtowed heavily at Yu Xiao, her forehead was already bleeding a little.

"Queen, why are you bothering? I won't punish you for this matter. Go back."

"Your Majesty! The concubine is willing to step down as the empress, enter the ancient Buddhist temple to worship devoutly, and repent with my father for my mistakes in this life. Please forgive me!"

"Ji Qiu! Don't mess around!"

"Father, I have already figured it out, what does not belong to us may not be obtained by force."

"Has the queen thought it through?"

"Think twice."

Yu Xiao looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, his eyes were as clear as when he entered the palace, and he couldn't help feeling compassionate.

"...Well, I promise you, but there is only one condition."

"Please speak, Your Majesty."

"Not only do you have to accompany the Taifu, but you also have to bring Linchi to think about the past together."

Ji Qiu understands that Yu Xiao was pardoned together with Lin Chi, and Lin Chi grew up with her, although he has no love for him, but he loves him as a brother and sister.

In an instant, Zhu tears welled up, and Ji Qiu kowtowed.

Such is the case in this life, and it is enough for Yu Qiu. Although he is not accompanied by the king every year, the couple's time in the past few years is enough to be unforgettable...

After that, due to the many affairs of the remnant party, Yu Xiao got up early and returned late to get busy, which coincided with the period of good relations with other countries.

That day, it was late at night when Yu Xiao returned to Qixiao Palace, but Lin Zijin was still waiting for him, falling asleep without sleep.

"Why aren't you sleeping?"

"I heard about the queen."

"Well, she's a nice girl."

"I know, I hope Mr. Lin can treat her well."

"Why do you look sad?"

Yu Xiao approached and gently stroked Lin Zijin's hair.

"I'm just thinking, this harem owner is afraid that there will be another disturbance."

"Jin'er is afraid that some concubine will snatch me away?"

"brazen."

Lin Zijin glared at the glib Yu Xiao, but Yu Xiao didn't care, and pulled him to sit down with him, his expression suddenly became serious.

"Jin'er, if I say that I want to make you queen, would you like it?"

"What?! How can this be? I'm a man, how can I be the empress? It's so nonsense!"

"Why can't men?"

"This will cause dissatisfaction and shame among the people of the world!"

"I will let the world know how good you are, so that they will never say anything right and wrong."

Lin Zijin looked at Yu Xiao's determined eyes, but couldn't say a word, just lowered his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a while, finally shook his head.

"As long as I can be by your side is enough, I don't need to burden you with a lot of speech. Besides, fighting enemies on the battlefield is more suitable for me."

"But this is about to send troops to foreign affairs, and I don't want you to go."

"Diplomacy came back in just a few months."

"but……"

"Okay, it's late at night, you've been busy all day, it's time to rest."

Lin Zijin interrupted Yu Xiao, took off his outer clothes for him, and deliberately drew Yu Xiao's attention.Because if Yu Xiao said a little more, he was afraid that he would not be able to stand the persuasion and stay.

In fact, Lin Zijin didn't want to go to another country to leave Yu Xiao, but this was his duty after all, just like Yu Xiao also had his affairs to deal with, so it would be a good thing if he could share some of the burden for him.

The next morning, when Lin Zijin woke up, there was no sign of Yu Xiao on the couch.

Why didn't Yu Xiao wake himself up when he went to the morning court?Lin Zijin was very strange.After quickly getting dressed, he wanted to open the door to go out, but found that the door was locked from the outside.

Under house arrest? !who did itYu Xiao?

Lin Zijin knocked on the door vigorously, like a tiger attacking.Sui'an, who was guarding the door outside, took a few steps back in fright.

"Open the door! Open the door for me!"

"General Lin, the emperor said that he will let you out after the morning court."

Lin Zijin was very surprised, what was Yu Xiao's plan this time?

But no matter how Lin Zijin asked about the beating, Sui'an didn't give too much explanation. After being tired of beating, no one answered after all. In desperation, Lin Zijin had to wait. , You must question Yu Xiao carefully!

At Sishi, the door was finally opened by the guards waiting outside, and then Suian walked in and unfolded a bright yellow scroll, Lin Zijin knew that it was an imperial decree.

"By God's favor, the emperor ordered that because Lin Zijin was not well protected during the turmoil of the Taifu, and he did not perform his duties as a general, and he was absent from the early court today without a reason, so he was dismissed as a general and demoted to a guard, stationed in the Qixiao Palace, hereby ."

"what?!"

Lin Zijin exclaimed in surprise, did Yu Xiao come up with such an idea, to deprive himself of his position and abuse his power to keep people in the palace, thinking of this, Lin Zijin suddenly felt angry.

"Yu Xiao——!!!!!!!"

This roar seemed to resound through the entire palace, and Yu Xiao, who was in the imperial study, felt a slight chill seep into his back.

He knew that today's actions would definitely arouse Jin'er's anger, but it was hard to settle down, and Jin'er wanted to leave him again, Yu Xiao would never allow it, but the person he liked had a very stubborn temper.Since persuasion is useless, it can only be abusing his private power and keeping him by any means. For the sake of his sweet love with Jin'er in the future, it is worth enduring the beating and scolding this time.
