royal husband

Palace? ? ?

Although Wang Jinhua didn't have much knowledge, she heard Wang Facai say what the palace was.

all of a sudden.

Wang Jinhua froze, and her face gradually turned pale.

"Jinhua, did you hear that, he...he said the palace just now..." Wang Facai's complexion was also very ugly, and his feet trembled subconsciously.

"Forgive me, my son, but I was also deceived by them."

The magistrate is flexible, although what happened to Chen Manzhou made him extremely angry, but compared with his own official position, it is not worth mentioning at all.So from the moment the magistrate knew Li Jin's identity, the magistrate immediately lowered his stance and did not continue to pester her.

at the same time.

The magistrate also signaled his subordinates to arrest Wang Jinhua's three brothers and sisters.

The three Wang Jinhua brothers and sisters suddenly felt that the disaster was imminent, and subconsciously wanted to escape, but they were caught by the magistrate first, and their mouths were blocked with cloth balls, so they could not escape at all.

Furthermore, after the three brothers and sisters of Wang Jinhua were arrested, they inadvertently saw the end of the four people who were sentenced to death on the ground, and their legs became weak.

Regarding the fate of the three Wang Jinhua siblings, Li Jin did not intend to interfere.

After all, people are responsible for their actions, right?

"deceive?"

Li Jin raised his eyebrows, and looked at the magistrate meaningfully.

"Yes." The magistrate's back stiffened immediately, and then he pretended to be calm and turned his head to look at Lan Mingzhou and said, "Brother Mingzhou, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect them to lie."

Lan Mingzhou replied with a half-smile, "It's as long as the magistrate knows that the subordinate officials did not commit crimes."

"Naturally, naturally." The magistrate smirked and said goodbye, "My son, the seventh prince, I'm really sorry, I have important matters to attend to, so I'll leave first."

The magistrate was also very cunning, and he was already prepared to retreat before he came. Therefore, even if Lan Mingzhou knew that the magistrate had a close relationship with Chen Manzhou, he couldn't touch the magistrate.

Back to the Yamen.

Lan Mingzhou used the excuse of inviting Li Jin and Ying Yuan to discuss the matter. As soon as the two of them came in, Lan Mingzhou bowed to them, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince, this time the officials have successfully dealt with these scourges." , thanks to your help.”

Lan Mingzhou knew very well that, let alone dealing with Chen Manzhou, even if he dealt with Zhang, Chi, and Lu's three patriarchs a little worse, he was more than capable.

Li Jin shook his head, "Let's let the past go, Lord Lan, the most important thing now is the people's food and clothing, and the price of salt."

Lan Mingzhou clasped his hands and said, "My son, Cheng Qingwu will take care of the salt price issue tomorrow, and will never let the common people continue to bear the high price of salt. As for the sweet potato issue, the lower officials have already explained it. There are results."

Li Jin nodded in satisfaction, "Okay."

That night.

Zhou Yunting quietly entered Li Jin's room, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, according to what you said, I will go to the north to investigate and find that there are spies sent by Qianluo Kingdom. They are afraid that they will attack Zhuzhou .”

Li Jin stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Did Qianluo's spies find any trace of you?"

Zhou Yunting shook his head, "No."

"Yeah." Li Jin nodded, and continued, "Yunting, you continue to follow Qianluo spy, I will tell Lan Mingzhou and the others about this, so that they can prepare."

"Yes, son."

Zhou Yunting nodded and immediately backed out.

"Is there going to be a war?"

Li Jin looked at the tea in the cup and couldn't help muttering to himself.

Yes, not bad.

Li Jin secretly sent Zhou Yunting out to investigate, just to prevent Qian Luo's attack.

last life.

Zhuzhou also had this catastrophe. At that time, Lan Mingzhou was also fighting against the enemy together with the people of Zhuzhou. However, the strength of the two sides was very different. Lan Mingzhou's temporary recruits were quickly defeated by Qianluo. Fortunately, Lan Mingzhou held on and waited for reinforcements from the Dingbei Army.

only……

The arrival of the reinforcements was still too late, Zhuzhou had already been devastated due to repeated wars, and Lan Mingzhou, the county magistrate who had successfully defended the city, was also questioned.

So in this life, Li Jin asked Zhou Yunting to investigate first.

the next day.

Perhaps because of Lan Mingzhou angrily beheading the four major culprits yesterday and the return of salt prices to normal, Lan Mingzhou officially promoted sweet potatoes this time, and many people agreed.

Hearing the news, Lan Mingzhou couldn't help temporarily heaving a sigh of relief.

"That's great. In this way, as long as the sweet potatoes are planted, the problem in Zhuzhou can be truly solved."

"This is just the beginning." Li Jin shook his head, and said solemnly, "Perhaps soon, Zhuzhou will be involved in the war/war. Master Lan, it's better to plan early."

war?

Lan Mingzhou's eyes widened in disbelief.

If this kind of words were changed by another person, Lan Mingzhou would never believe it, but now the person who suddenly said that was Li Jin, whom he worked for, and Lan Mingzhou's heart suddenly lifted.

"It's true." Li Jin turned around and met Lan Mingzhou's gaze, "I accidentally discovered Yun Ting when I sent him out to do some errands."

Lan Mingzhou didn't want to believe it, "How could it be like this...Zhuzhou obviously found peace with great difficulty..."

Li Jin pressed on every step of the way and did not give Lan Mingzhou a chance to back down, "Master Lan, since spies have appeared, it will be a matter of time before the other party will send troops to deal with Zhuzhou."

Lan Mingzhou smiled wryly, "But...the officer doesn't have any soldiers at all, and even with the soldiers brought by Mr. Tao, they are far from enough to deal with the enemy."

Although it is not yet known how many troops the enemy will send to deal with Zhuzhou, it cannot be guessed that the number of troops sent by the enemy is set to be more than 1.

"Then find reinforcements." Li Jin said coldly, "I will write a letter to the emperor with the Seventh Prince later, and what you have to do is to strengthen Zhuzhou's defense."

"Yes."

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Lan Mingzhou nodded to Li Jin and left quickly.

……

"Ajin, why did you prepare two letters?"

Yingyuan looked at the two letters on the table and was dumbfounded.

Looking at the cover, one is for Ying Zhengjing and the other is for Li Shiyun.

And what confused Ying Yuan was the letter to Li Shiyun.

Ying Zhengjing is suspicious by nature, and there must be Ying Zhengjing's spies beside them. If Li Jin wrote two letters to Ying Zhengjing and Li Shiyun at the same time, it is hard to guarantee that Ying Zhengjing would not think too much.

Li Jin shook his head, "I'm afraid it's too late."

There was nothing Li Jin could do about it.

Because in his previous life, the [-] troops sent by Qianluo would arrive in a month. If he only wrote a letter to Ying Zhengjing, and then waited for Ying Zhengjing to agree, and then sent a letter to Li Shiyun, it would definitely be too late.

Sometime.

Zhuzhou will also repeat the tragedy of his previous life, causing countless casualties.

This is also the reason why Lan Mingzhou was finally arrested and questioned in his previous life.

The city was defended, but two-thirds of the people in the city died. With Ying Zhengjing's temper, how could he not pursue it?And the Lan family, longing for Lan Mingzhou to die, will naturally beat the dog in the water.

Ying Yuan still disapproved of Li Jin's doing so, "But if Father knows, he will definitely be suspicious."

"A Yuan, the emperor will understand."

Li Jin said that's what he said, but he didn't think that Ying Zhengjing would really understand.

To put it bluntly.

Li Jin dared to do this because he relied on his image of dying in front of Ying Zhengjing. Even if Ying Zhengjing was really angry because of this, he would have some scruples.

"But……"

"Ah Yuan, it will be fine."

Li Jin smiled back and made another promise.

……

as predicted.

At the same time that the letter written by Li Jin arrived in Ying Zhengjing's hands, the spies said that Li Jin had written two letters, so they also arrived.

Ying Zhengjing looked at the news sent by the spies, and suddenly his face darkened, "What a prince of Dingbei, how dare he make decisions without authorization."

however.

Before Ying Zhengjing could make another move, Yang Shaochuan walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Empress has come down and said that she has something to discuss with you."

Ying Zhengjing thought for a while before saying, "Let him in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After receiving the order from Ying Zhengjing, Gu Rushuang walked in alone.

As soon as Gu Rushuang came in, he saluted Ying Zhengjing first, "Cheng Jun sees the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

"Queen, get up, don't be too polite."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Why is the queen here at this time?"

"Back to the emperor, Cheng Jun personally cooked the food, I want to invite the emperor to come over and have a taste."

"Next time, I have no appetite."

"Yes, then Chengjun will take his leave first."

Ying Zhengjing suddenly stopped Gu Rushuang, "Wait."

Gu Rushuang stopped in her tracks, "Is there something wrong with the emperor?"

"En." Yingzheng nodded, then told Gu Rushuang what Li Jin had done, and then deliberately asked, "Queen, what would you do if you were Zhen?"

"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

Gu Rushuang shook her head calmly, not intending to answer.

"No problem." Ying Zhengjing said indifferently, "Tell me, it's just gossip with me, it's not considered meddling in politics, even if I make a mistake, I won't blame you."

Gu Rushuang listened, blessed her body, and said, "Cheng Jun feels that Jin'er did nothing wrong."

Ying Zhengjing laughed back angrily, and his words were full of coldness, "The empress means... Li Jin wrote a letter asking Li Shiyun to send troops without authorization, is it reasonable?"

Gu Rushuang asked without answering, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten what you said when King Dingbei was stationed in the north?"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

Gu Rushuang's words instantly awakened Ying Zhengjing.

Yes.

How could he have forgotten.

When he asked Li Shiyun to guard the north, he promised that if there was any change in the north, Li Shiyun could send troops there without his consent.

Now that there is a change in the border of Zhuzhou, isn't it in line with his original promise?

Thinking of this, Ying Zhengjing fell silent.

In my heart, I was very glad that I told Gu Rushuang first, otherwise, once he issued an order to punish Li Jin and Li Shiyun, who was famous as a teacher, wouldn't it be tantamount to slapping himself?

"Your Majesty understands now, so Cheng Jun won't bother you." Gu Rushuang smiled, and retreated contentedly.

"Queen..."

Seeing Gu Rushuang's back gradually moving away, Ying Zhengjing wanted to call out, but he couldn't get the words out of his throat, so he could only watch Gu Rushuang leave helplessly.
