spring and autumn officials

"You...what is your name Tianzi?" Wu Man was completely shocked by Qi Lu's words, and looked at Qi Lu in a daze.

When the emperor heard the Taifu calling him "Lin'er", his sour mood calmed down a lot in an instant. Sure enough, "Lin'er" can cure all diseases.

Qi Lu smiled and said, "Lin'er."

Qi Lu repeated it so calmly, Wu Man almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and looked at the emperor in shock.

You must know that there are not many people in this world who can call the Son of Heaven "Lin'er". Of course, the one who shouted the most in the past was the eldest father of the Son of Heaven, that is, the deceased King Zhou Ping. Since the Son of Heaven came to the throne, no one dared to do that Call the Son of Heaven.

Qi Lu smiled and said to Wu Man: "Why, aren't Da Sima and the Son of Heaven the childhood sweethearts? Have you ever called the Son of Heaven that way?"

Qi Lv simply asked the question knowingly, although Wu Man and the emperor had a small relationship, even though they were brothers, they had never called the emperor like this.

Wu Man said hesitantly: "I..."

Before he found a chance to smooth things over for himself, Ji Lin smiled and held Qi Lu's hand, and said, "It's true that Da Sima has never called a widow like this, Taifu, let's go."

After finishing speaking, the emperor took Taifu Qi and left, leaving only a dazed Da Sima in place.

Qi Lv promised to teach Da Sima how to make Qiuli Gao, so he asked Yang Yangjian to write a recipe for Qiuli Gao, which was very detailed, and gave it to Da Sima.

Early the next morning, before Qi Lu got up, he heard "bang bang bang" knocking on the door.He rested at his Grand Tutor's mansion yesterday, so he didn't have to go to the court today, Qi Lu didn't enter the palace in the morning, but he had his life, Ji Lin sent Qi Lu to Da Sikong Yinzi's mansion today, to formally marry him.So last night Qi Lu came out of the palace and spent the night in his mansion.

Qi Lu was still asleep when he heard the sound of knocking on the door. The sound was very urgent, like a drum beating on a battlefield. Qi Lu was so frightened that he immediately opened his eyes and stared at him. The sky was bright and gloomy, and it happened to be a cloudy day today, Qi Lv just got up from the couch, "Gudong" fell back again, it was too early to get up at all.

Qi Lu fell back on the couch, the knock on the door like a drum quickly subsided, it should be the sheep shoulders to answer the door, Qi Lu then heaved a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, pulled the quilt, ready to continue Go back to sleep.

Unexpectedly, Yan Yangjian came in and said softly, "Teacher, Da Sima is here, I want to see Tai Tu."

Qi Lu said "Huh?", thinking he didn't hear clearly, this early in the morning, Da Sima Wuman suddenly ran to his mansion?Isn't this something out of the Arabian Nights?

Qi Lv closed his eyes again, as if he didn't hear it, thinking that he was dreaming and was going to sleep for a while, at this moment, he heard Wuman's loud voice outside: "Teacher? Are you up, Tutor? Taifu Qi? Taifu Qi!"

Qi Lu: "..."

Qi Lv got up from the couch with his dull hair on his head, only then did he realize that he had heard correctly just now, that the Yangjian indeed said that Da Sima was coming.

Qi Lv asked himself if his relationship with Da Sima was not so good?Early in the morning, Da Sima didn't enter the palace, but ran to himself instead?

Qi Lu pulled his hair and said, "Little Yang, go and ask about..." something.

Qi Lu hadn't finished speaking, "Bang!", Da Sima Wuman was impatient, he pushed the door in from the outside, saw that Qi Lu hadn't woken up yet, he strode over immediately, and took off Qi Lu's quilt , and throw it aside.

It is autumn now, the weather is getting colder, especially in the morning, when Qi Lu's quilt was taken off by Wu Man, he felt a little cold for a moment, and then he woke up from the dream, and quickly said: "Da Sima, you come here early this morning. What is the law's mansion doing?"

Wu Man came over, not only took off Qi Lv's quilt, but also snatched the work of the sheep's shoulders, took all the clothes, and said: "Teacher, it's getting late, get up quickly, don't you want to hand it over to me?" How to make autumn pear cream?"

Qi Lv looked confused and said, "Didn't Xiao Yang give the recipe to Da Sima yesterday?"

It is true that Lu Yangjian was handed over to Wu Man, and he was very stable on weekdays, and Qi Lv never worried about his work.

But Wu Man said: "I handed it over to me, but your recipe is so raw and awkward, I followed the recipe again, the pears were mushy, the pear juice was cooked, the pot was burnt through, and I didn't do anything. come out."

When Qi Lu heard it, what?Burnt through the pot?Could it be that Da Sima, like his brother Tianzi, is a kitchen killer?Then Da Sima came to his house at this moment, did he set fire to it?

Da Sima said without blushing, "It must be that your recipe is not detailed enough. It's just right. I'm going to take a rest today. You can teach me how to make autumn pear paste."

Qi Lu had a headache, and said, "But today, Lulu doesn't stop taking baths."

Da Sima smiled and straightened his chest. He didn't wear official robes today. He was dressed in regular clothes, which set off his tall figure and fine waist. He said proudly: "I knew you didn't take a bath today, so I came here early on purpose. You teach me It's just right for me to go to class again!"

Qi Lu: "..." Thank you Da Sima for your thoughtfulness.

Qi Lu likes lazy beds and can't get up from the couch at all, but Da Sima is full of energy, wishing he could get up from the couch with Qi Lu on his shoulders.In the end, Qi Lu had no choice but to compromise, and got up yawning. Just as Yi Yangjian was about to comb Qi Lu's hair, Da Sima said, "No need, I'll do it."

Qi Lu looked at Da Sima in surprise. One must know that Wu Man is Da Sima and the young suzerain of the Wu Clan. With his halo after circle, he must always be served by others. How could he serve others? Qi Lu seriously suspects that Wu Man is not here to comb his hair, but to cut his own hair, and it is the kind that pulls down one by one...

Qi Lu sat on the table "tremblingly", facing the mirror, Wu Man half knelt behind him to comb his hair, Qi Lu realized that he was worrying too much, although Wu Man was a martial artist, his hair combing movements were quite He is quick and careful, so he won't hurt Qi Lu's scalp.

Qi Lu was surprised and said, "Da Sima's combing skills...?"

Wu Man still said proudly: "How is it? Not bad? I learned this from the servants on purpose. I just learned it well. Later, when I marry my wife, I can comb his hair like this. Now let's practice my hands."

Qi Lv was even more surprised, it turned out that Wu Man learned this hair combing skill for his future wife, it seems that Da Sima loves Miss Yin Si very much, so it seems that Da Sima is still a very good man.

Wu Man combed his hair and said: "Hurry up, where is your dining room, I will wait for you first."

After Qi Lu washed, Wu Man entered the dining room and waited. After Qi Lu finished washing, he rushed to the dining room and saw Wu Man peeling pears. In time, Wu Man had already peeled a large basket of pears "shua, shua, shua", and all the white pears were lying in the basket.

Wu Man was agile, seeing Qi Lu, he immediately said: "Come on, teach me quickly."

Qi Lu cleaned his hands, rolled up his sleeves and robe, and taught Wu Man to make Qiuli ointment.Wu Man is good at practicing martial arts and has good hands and feet, but except for peeling, Da Sima is useless in the dining room. In comparison, the kitchen killer, the lamb shoulder, instantly becomes cute.

Wu Man let out a "hiss!", and for the first time his hands were scalded, he rinsed his fingers with cool water, and said, "It's even more difficult to make Qiuli paste than practicing martial arts and fighting."

Qi Lu said with a smile: "After all, there are specialties in martial arts. It is impossible for everyone to be as good at practicing martial arts and fighting as Da Sima, and it is impossible for everyone to know how to cook, right? Just like the Yin family is in charge of Sikong Civil Engineering, and the Wu family In charge of Sima soldiers and horses, why bother to compete so much?"

Wu Man was cutting pears, when he heard Qi Lu say this, he knew that Qi Lu meant something else, and said: "I don't want to compete with Yin, but Yin's people are too deceitful. Yin Zi is old. Not his disciples, his disciples are usually arrogant and domineering in Luoshi, if I see them but don't teach them, I will only feel itchy."

Qi Lu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Is that so? At Yinzi's birthday banquet that day, Lu saw an arrogant and domineering person, but he was a member of the Wu family."

Wu Man's face turned hot, and he said: "I mean, accident, I have always been strict in discipline, it is definitely an accident."

Wu Man cut up all the pears, and glanced at Qi Lu several times. He has always been a straight talker, but today he hesitated a bit. Qi Lu's eyelids twitched when he saw it, and said: "If Da Sima has something to say, then I will let you go." To put it bluntly, with such hesitation, Lu might think that Da Sima secretly admires Lu."

"Who, who secretly admires you?" Wu Man immediately denied, saying: "I heard...you are going to Yinzi's mansion today to bestow a marriage for the emperor? Can you take me with you?"

Qi Lv nodded and said: "It was this day, but today Da Sima came to look for Lv, and he is not interested in making Qiuli ointment."

Wu Man quickly said: "I did ask you to teach me how to make Qiuli Gao, it's true, but... I also want to go to Yinzi's mansion to see, you go to give a marriage today, take me with you, Isn't it just right?"

Qi Lv said: "Where is the groom official going to give the marriage together?"

Wu Man said again: "I'm just following along to see. When you go to give the marriage, it's okay for me to stay in the cart for a while? I won't wander around..."

As Wu Man spoke, he used all his hands and feet, and said, "Teacher Qi, there is a happy event in the house of Da Sikong Yinzi, and your gift is not ready yet? If you take me to give the marriage today, I will give you your gift." Already!"

Qi Lu's eyes lit up, all his money was used to buy peppercorns, and he didn't buy enough ingredients on weekdays, so he couldn't afford the servants. He was worrying about the gift, thinking how to squeeze out some money to exchange for a gift.

Now Da Sima rushed up, Qi Lu stared at Da Sima as if he was staring at a little sheep, and immediately said: "Deal."

Da Sima, who was taken advantage of, didn't feel at all disadvantaged, and said happily: "That's great, you are not allowed to go back on your word."

Qi Lu didn't need to enter the palace in the morning, but went to Da Sikong Yinzi's mansion, Qi Lu got into the carriage, Da Sima Wuman personally drove Qi Lu's car, and then went to Da Sikong's mansion.

After arriving at the mansion, Wu Man parked the cart next to the horse shed of Da Sikong's mansion. Qi Lu got off the cart and told Wu Man, "Don't walk around carelessly, just wait here. Now Wu and Yin are still here." If there is no marriage, if there is any accident, it will be Da Sima who will suffer."

Wu Man nodded vigorously, and said: "Okay, Taifu Qi, go quickly, I will wait here."

Qi Lu left quickly, and the housekeeper led the way and led Qi Lu to meet Yin Zi. Yin Zi and others were already waiting for the marriage gift, and when they saw Qi Lu, they immediately bowed and saluted.

Qi Lu smiled and said, "Da Sikong, congratulations."

Although there was a smile on Yin Zi's face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, instead he was a little sad, and said politely: "Please trouble Taifu Qi for a walk."

Qi Lu glanced at the Yin family who came to receive the order, and said, "Why didn't you see Miss Yin Si?"

Yin Zi said: "The fourth girl is weak and has a cold today, so she can't get up on the couch and can't come out to meet her."

Qi Lu said with a smile: "It's okay, it's serious to let Miss Fourth recover from her illness."

When Qi Lu left, Wu Man poked his head around the stable to have a look, he rarely came to the Yin's house before, and he had visited the Yin's house a few times when he was a child, so he was not familiar with the layout of the Yin's house.

Wu Man came with Qi Lu, in fact, he also knew that he would definitely not see Miss Yin Si, but Wu Man still wanted to come. Hearing that Qi Lu unexpectedly came to give a marriage, he felt like he was holding a furry rabbit in his heart. I want to come and have a look, just in case, thinking in my heart, what if I can meet Miss Yin Si?

Wu Man walked around with a look of disappointment on his face, he didn't see Miss Yin Si, and he didn't even see a female family member, so he prepared to go back to the stable and waited for a while to drive Qi Lu back.

Wu Man walked back a few steps, and heard the sound of "rustling, rustling", it didn't sound like the wind blowing the vegetation, but it seemed to be grinding something.

Following the voice, Wu Man pushed aside the nearby flowers, crossed a small path, and saw a path behind the flowers, a figure squatting on the ground, polishing a piece of wood.

The figure was slender and slender, revealing an invincible attitude, thousands of gentleness, a slender waist, and long black hair falling down the shoulders. Looking from the back, he was definitely a stunning beauty.

Wu Man's eyes lit up when he saw the figure, isn't this Miss Yin Si?

Miss Yin Si was squatting behind the flowers alone, and there was no maid to serve her. She was actually doing carpentry work. Wu Man took a closer look and saw that Miss Yin Si was holding a small crossbow in her creamy and slender hands. The small crossbow of the past can fire three arrows in a row. In this era, the attainments of the small crossbow are very advanced.

Wu Man saw that Miss Yin Si was very happy, and then saw the little crossbow, he couldn't help walking over and said: "This little crossbow, was Miss Si made?"

As soon as Wu Man opened his mouth, Fourth Miss Yin didn't seem to hear Wu Man's footsteps, she was taken aback by his voice, "Um..." she frowned slightly, and fell to the ground.

"Are you all right?" Wu Man didn't expect to frighten Fourth Miss Yin, and rushed over to help Fourth Miss Yin up from the ground.

Wu Man stretched out his hand to touch Miss Yin Si's waist, although he didn't intend to be blasphemy, but Wu Man felt the flexible waist, as thin as a willow, and smelled the fragrance of Miss Yin Si's hair on the temples, he was a little bit distracted shake.

Just when Wu Man's mind was shaken, he also discovered that although Miss Yin Si's figure is slender, she is very tall. It's a big one, and now Wu Man is standing next to Miss Yin Si at a close distance, and suddenly feels that Miss Yin Si seems to be very tall, even taller than himself...

Wu Man quickly straightened his chest and waist to make himself look taller, but Wu Man found that even if he was straight, he was still a bit shorter than Miss Yin Si.

Wu Man coughed, helped Fourth Miss Yin, quickly suppressed the dirty thoughts in his heart, and said: "Is there any pain from the fall, may I help Fourth Miss find a medical officer?"

Just as Wu Man was about to turn around, he felt that his hand was being pulled suddenly. There was a touch of coolness, flexibility and silky touch in the palm of his hand. When he looked down, it was Miss Yin Si's palm.

Fourth Miss Yin held Wu Man's palm with both hands, her face was very shy, she shook her head, signaling that Wu Man should not go to the medical officer.

Feeling the gentle touch in his palm, Wu Man's mind was even more shaken immediately, his face flushed, his mind was even more shaken, and he said: "No, don't you need to find a medical officer?"

Miss Yin Si still didn't speak, she shook her head, her fair and translucent cheeks revealed a faint redness, like peach blossoms in spring, her body trembled slightly, she raised her hand to cover her mouth and coughed twice, the coughing Their appearances are all so beautiful and glamorous.

Wu Man was even more stunned when he saw it. He only felt that Miss Yin Si was like a fairy descended to earth. Although Wu Man and Miss Yin Si had not met a few times, he was even more certain that he would never fall in love with anything other than Miss Yin Si in his life. anyone.

When Qi Lv returned to the carriage, he found that Da Sima was gone, so he waited where he had agreed to, but Da Sima ran away. .

As Wu Man walked back, he looked down at his palm, and kept giggling "hehe", he had already reached the side of the luggage cart, he didn't notice the luggage cart at all, and hit the luggage cart again with a "boom!" This time he didn't hit his nose, because he lowered his head slightly and looked at the palm of his hand as he walked forward, so Da Sima hit his forehead directly, his forehead was red, the pain caused him to cover his head, and hissed several times Voice.

Qi Lu's eyelids twitched, and he said, "Da Sima, why is your heart fluttering?"

The corners of Wu Man's lips curled up, he couldn't help laughing, but he said in his mouth: "No, nothing."

Qi Lu was ordered to give the marriage, and Yin Zi had to bring Fourth Miss Yin into the palace to thank him, and Yin Zi brought Fourth Miss Yin into the palace the next day.

Ji Lin and Qi Lu had just had their breakfast when the eunuch came to communicate and said: "Son of Heaven, Da Sikong Yinzi and Miss Yinsi have come, and they are outside the hall, waiting for an audience."

Ji Lin nodded and said, "Summon."

Soon, Yin Zi came in from the outside, Miss Yin Si supported Yin Zi, Yin Zi was old, and walked in tremblingly.

Ji Lin was dressed in a black court robe of the Son of Heaven and wore a crown on his head. He sat on the table and said, "You don't need to be too polite, Zi Yin, let's go to the table."

Yin Zi was trembling, but insisted on kneeling on the ground with a groan, and Miss Yin Si beside him also knelt down.

The emperor frowned slightly. Today is the day when Yin Zi and Fourth Miss came to worship and thank you. Why did they kneel down on the ground as soon as they came in? It didn't look like kneeling to thank. Yin Zi's vicissitudes of face were full of worries, and he knelt down Then he put his head on the ground and said: "The emperor please back away from the left and right, the guilty minister has something to say!"

Ji Lin frowned even tighter, raised his hand, and said, "Let's all step back."

The eunuchs and maids left in response, and Qi Luben wanted to leave too, but Ji Lin said, "The Tai Tuo stays."

Qi Lv stood there and did not retreat, and Yin Zi didn't seem to care about it. After all the palace people retreated, Yin Zicai said again: "Son of Heaven, the sinful minister is guilty of death! He has committed a serious crime of deceiving the emperor! It has been a big mistake, please The Son of Heaven punishes! Punishes!"

Ji Lin said "Oh?" and said flatly, "Da Sikong, what is your crime?"

Yin Zi glanced sideways at Miss Yin Si, Miss Yin Si nodded slightly, Yin Zi then said: "Son of Heaven, please borrow the small room for a while. Please let the Son of Heaven witness it with his own eyes, and everything will become clear."

Ji Lin became more and more confused, not to mention Ji Lin, Qi Lu was also a little confused, what kind of medicine does Yin Zi sell in this gourd?Why borrow a small room?

Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay, I agree."

Miss Yin Si kowtowed her head, then stood up slowly, coughed lightly while standing up, exited the imperial room in the Lu bedroom, came to the small room next to her, walked in, "squeak—" Close the door, don't know what to do.

Qi Lu's eyes moved slightly, staring at the door of the small room, full of curiosity in his heart, this Yin Zi and Fourth Miss Yin are mysterious, and they didn't come to thank you today, but to plead guilty.

After a while, with a sound of "squeak--", the door of the small room was pushed open, and someone came out from inside, but it was not Miss Yin Si, it was clearly a man!

Just now the emperor has dismissed all the people in the Lu bedroom, there is no one in the Lu bedroom, let alone in the small room, just now it was clearly Miss Yin Si who entered, but at this moment, the one who came out turned out to be a man.

The man was dressed in a moon-white robe, with a jade crown on his head, and was dressed very simply and neatly. He had a beautiful oval face, and his face was extremely delicate, like a crown jade, without any blemishes on his face. His handsome appearance can be compared with that of Gongsunzi , and combined with Gongsun Hua's coquettishness.Tall and slender, with an elegant and weak aura, there is an aura of weakness and invincibility in his bones.

As he came out, he raised his hand to cover his lips and coughed lightly.

Qi Luzai looked at the man who came out carefully, and said uncertainly, "Miss Yin Si?"

When Fourth Miss Yin entered the small room, she was clearly a weak woman, but when she walked out of the small room, she turned into a handsome man?

Although Qi Lu was surprised, his mind was spinning rapidly, no wonder... I thought that Miss Yin Si was born too tall, and by visual inspection, Miss Yin Si's height may be about the same as that of the emperor, and taller than Da Sima Wuman some.In fact, there was also a tall girl among the women, so Qi Lu didn't take it seriously.

Later, at the flower-appreciating swallow drink, Yin Zi repeatedly rejected the marriage between Da Sima and Miss Yin Si, and even used Guo Gongji's father as a shield. Later, he also proposed that he could marry Wu, but not Miss Yin Si. Qi Lv was a little surprised by these repeated obstacles.

Now, this strange truth has finally surfaced, that is...

After "Miss Yin Si" came out, she lifted the hem of her clothes. He had a weak and handsome face, a tall figure and a flexible waist, but his demeanor was surprisingly crisp. He knelt on the ground and said, "See you, the Son of Heaven."

Otherwise, Qi Lu never heard Fourth Miss Yin speak, and thought that Fourth Miss Yin was shy, so she didn't like to speak in front of strangers.

Now Qi Lu understands, because unlike this handsome man's face, his voice is unusually low and hoarse, definitely not a woman's voice, and he can't pretend to be a woman's voice, as soon as he opens his mouth, he will definitely reveal his secrets.

Moreover, "Miss Yin Si" always covers his mouth and coughs. On the one hand, he really has deficiencies and coughs frequently. On the other hand, he raises his hands, and the sleeves are wide enough to cover the protruding Adam's apple. .

Ji Lin was completely surprised, but kept his face calm and said, "Yin Zi, what does this mean? Where is Miss Yin Si? Who is this son?"

Yin Zi bowed to the ground and never got up, saying: "The guilty minister is guilty of deceiving the emperor, and the emperor should punish him!"

When Yin Zi said this, he obviously admitted that Miss Yin Si is a man!

Qi Lu said: "Da Sikong, what is the reason for this? Lu privately thinks that the identity of Miss Yin Si is probably not simple?"

Yin Zi never agreed with Miss Yin Si and Wu Man's marriage that day, but after Yin Zi and Miss Yin Si had some words, Yin Zi agreed. In the eyes of others, Yin Si Miss may also like Wuman, so she persuaded Yin Zi.

But in Qi Lu's eyes, thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be the case, because Yin Zi's attitude is very strange.

Yin Zi is the elder of the two dynasties, he assisted Ji Lin's grandfather, and assisted Ji Lin, it can be said that Yin Zi's status is very noble, and Miss Yin Si is Yin Zi's granddaughter to put it bluntly. Being so cautious, Qi Lu felt that there was definitely a "ghost" in it.

Yin Zi really said: "Qi Taifu's eyes are like a torch, what he said is right, the sinful minister is punished with death, this son is not from my Yin family, let alone the granddaughter of the criminal minister, but... he is the son of Li Guo. "

Mr. Li Guo?

There were more than 100 countries in the early Spring and Autumn Period, and many people only knew a few of them, such as Qi, Lu, Jin, Zheng and so on.In fact, during the Spring and Autumn Period, there were still many little-known small countries, and Li Guo was one of them.

The country of Li is only a tiny piece of land, and the country is surrounded by the huge territory of the country of Jin. Not only is it facing the harassment of the country of Jin, but also the people of Beidi are to the north of the country of Jin, and the country of Li also lives on the northern defense line of Dazhou. .In this way, what Li country has to face is Jin country's aggression and Beidi people's harassment.

Although Li Guo's land and reputation are not big, he was once extremely strong.Li country has a strong army and a large population. Because of the strength of Li country, even the word Li has evolved into many meanings. Many countries will be frightened when they hear the name of Li country.

But the prosperity of the Li country can be traced back to the period of Ji Lin's ancestors King Wen of Zhou and King Zhou Wu.At that time, the State of Li was extremely powerful, but the strength of the State of Li existed as the right-hand man of King Zhou. When King Wen of Zhou crusaded against the mediocrity and tyranny of Shang Zhou, the first thing he wanted to cut off was the State of Li, the right-hand man of King Zhou. The incident of "Xibo Kanli".

Since then, the Li country has been destroyed, not only that, but also ushered in a huge catastrophe.There is a line in the Book of Songs, "There is Li when the people are overwhelmed, and disasters turn into ashes." It is not difficult to see that the Li country once suffered a massacre of the city, and the Li family was almost wiped out. The remaining descendants of the Li family did not dare to call themselves the Li family. , fled outside one after another.

Later, after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Li Kingdom was restored, and the descendants of the Li Kingdom were recruited to continue to manage the fief. Unfortunately, the Li Kingdom was no longer strong in the past, and was constantly bullied by the surrounding countries, and was soon destroyed by the Jin Kingdom again.

The Li country is struggling to survive in such constant destruction, restoration, destruction, and restoration, but now the Li country is only a small piece of land, and the capital is moved to be surrounded by the Jin country. The situation is already very critical.

Neither Qi Lu nor Ji Lin expected that Fourth Miss Yin was actually the son of Li Guo.

Ji Lin frowned and said, "Yin Zi, what's going on? Why is the son of Li Guo in my Luoshi City, and why is he hiding in Yin Zi's mansion."

It is not uncommon for the sons of various countries to flee. Some sons who are related to Luo Shi will also flee to Luo Shi and ask for the protection of the emperor. However, Ji Lin has not heard of any sons of princes from the Li country who have come to flee.

Yinzi "harbored" Young Master Li, if it was spread, it would be a death penalty.

Yin Zi said tremblingly: "Son of Heaven, guilty minister..."

At this time, Young Master Li Guo interrupted Yin Zi's words, he covered his lips and coughed lightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "Son of Heaven, let Zi Yi make it clear."

Li Guonai is the Marquis, the Li family, and this man who pretends to be Miss Yin Si is the youngest son of the present Marquis Li, named Ziyi.

Li Ziyi's face was calm, she took off the disguise of the little white rabbit, she looked indifferent and calm, she cupped her hands and said, "My Son, Ziyi entered Luoshi because of her own will..."

Li Ziyi, as the son of Li Guo, escaped and entered the Luo division.Obviously, Li State ushered in another catastrophe, Jin State once again sent troops to invade Li State's territory, Li Hou poured out troops to resist, but unexpectedly, Jin State joined forces with Lu State, attacking Li State from both sides, Li State was overwhelmed, Now Lu State's army has marched into the capital of Li State and killed Marquis Li. Li Ziyi's elder brothers were all killed by Lu State. Li Ziyi desperately left the capital and fled.

The state of Jin was a big country in the Spring and Autumn Period. Needless to say, the state of Jin surrounded the state of Li, annexing it early and annexing it later must have the intention of annexing it.Although the territory of Li State is not large, Li State seems to be a hub in the north. From Li State as the center, it is very convenient whether you go to Jin State, Xing State, or go north to the territory of Beidi people. So the state of Jin has long been ready to make a move against the state of Li.

And this Lu country sounds completely unfamiliar.If Qi Lu didn't do his homework, he might not know what country Lu is.But it just so happens that the Lu State in the north is about to move around these days. Qi Lu heard some things about the Lu State mentioned by Guo Gongji's father and Da Sima Wuman, and he generally knows something about the Lu State.

Lu State is not the feudal state of the emperor, but a branch of the Di people, and it is the most powerful one.The state of Lu has always been active within the borders of the state of Jin, and it is very arrogant. Now the state of Jin is facing civil strife, and there is harassment from the state of Lu, and it is also very worrying. Therefore, it came up with the idea of ​​forming an alliance with the state of Lu to invade the state of Li together and divert attention. method of strength.

The state of Li was overwhelmed, and Li Ziyi fled from the state of Li, and was hunted down by the Di people from the states of Jin and Lu. When he came to Luoshi, he couldn't enter the city gate of Luoshi because he had no identity.

At this time, it happened that Miss Si in Yin Zi's family was recuperating in the countryside all year round because of her frailty.

Li Ziyi has some in-law relationship with the Yin family. He wanted to join the Yin family. He entered the Luoshi city gate grandly.

Because Li Ziyi was born with a distinctive personality and looks, no one noticed when she pretended to be Miss Yin Si, but Li Ziyi was taller than ordinary men, and her voice was deep and magnetic, so it was inconvenient for her to go out and talk.

At Yin Zi's birthday banquet, Fourth Miss Yin did not come out to attend the birthday banquet. It was not because she was weak and sick at all, but because Li Ziyi might reveal her secrets if she appeared in front of everyone.

Miss Yin Si has always been in poor health, and often lives in the countryside to recuperate from illness. She has always been very withdrawn and not close to her sisters. Yin Zi also changed all the maids and servants around Li Ziyi, but it was perfect and no one noticed. .

how do you know...

Yin Zi shook his head and said, "I don't know... I don't know that Da Sima has misunderstood him, and he won't marry anyone other than Mr. Li."

Speaking of this, everyone frowned, that's right, no wonder Yin Zi refused in every possible way when Wu Man proposed marriage, Li Ziyi is not Miss Yin Si at all, he is still the son of Li Guo, how could Yin Zi agree to this marriage.

Not to mention that the idea of ​​Mr. Li marrying Wu Man is too absurd, but once Wu Man knows that Miss Yin Si is a man, I am afraid that according to his temperament, he will definitely explode on the spot and be torn apart.

Yin Zi originally wanted to tell the emperor about Li Ziyi. After all, this involved the affairs of Li, Jin, and Di people. Jin was strong and swallowed up Li, and even colluded with Di people. The emperor had just ascended the throne, so he must not allow Jin With Lu Guo, all of this was well calculated, so it was impossible to imagine that something would go wrong because of Wu Man.

Qi Lu moved his eyes and said, "Even so, why did Mr. Li agree to marry Da Sima?"

Li Ziyi knelt on the ground, coughing slightly, the corners of his lips curled up like nothing, so small that Qi Lu thought he had misread it.

Li Ziyi cupped her hands and said: "Go back to the emperor, go back to the Taifu. The reason why Ziyi asked Yin Zi to agree to marry Da Sima is true. Please also ask the emperor and Taifu Rong Ziyi to report in detail."

When Li Ziyi escaped from Li State, he also got an inside story that Lu State not only united with Jin State to destroy Li State, but also had ambitions to invade Luo Shi.

Lu State is the country of Beidi, the most powerful branch of Chidi people. A few days ago, because they heard about the young Zhou emperor's pacification of Huaiyi, they felt very anxious.Huaiyi's victory lies in the complex terrain, and such a complex geographical advantage was broken by the Zhou people. Luguo felt that if Zhou Tianzi continued to grow stronger, their Luguo might also be destroyed.

Li Ziyi said: "Lu Guo intends to act first to embarrass the emperor and warn the emperor."

Ji Lin sneered, and said: "Lu State is really overestimated. Lu State is deep in the north, north of Jin State. Mr. Li said that Lu State wants to embarrass the widows, so how can this Lu State cross the northern country? How about extending your hand into the Central Plains?"

Li Ziyi seemed to have known that the emperor would ask such a question a long time ago, and cupped his hands and said, "Lu Guo has secretly bribed the emperor's royal family doctor, and wants to use the royal doctor's troops to severely injure Luo division."

Ji Lin immediately narrowed his eyes and said, "Who is the doctor of the royal family?"

Li Ziyi started to cough again, he seemed unable to speak too much, he started to cough after talking for a long time, he coughed for a while before he stabilized, his breath was a little weak, but his white cheeks that were almost transparent were flushed due to the severe coughing Slightly Yin Hong, that appearance is so handsome, no wonder Da Sima Wuman fell in love with Mr. Li Guo at first sight.

Li Ziyi chuckled, and said quietly: "The Son of Heaven can't help but think about it, who among the Luo masters is the one who fights the most?"

A few days ago, Duke Zhou Heijian's clansmen had been pushing Duke Zhou Heijian to fight for it because the position of Qingshi had fallen on the head of Duke Ji's father. Feeling that the emperor's wrists were too harsh, he didn't dare to stretch his head too much, so they all calmed down.

Duke Zhou's clansmen don't come out on top, but there are other people coming out, those are the Yin family and the Wu family. Today the Yin family burns the Wu family's wheat, and tomorrow the Wu family cuts the Yin family's seedlings. When they quarreled, it turned into a war of dudes.

Qi Lu narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean..."

Li Ziyi smiled slightly, and said: "Teacher Bingxue is smart, you must have guessed it, Yin Zi is old, and has no intention of competing with Wu Clan, and Wu Clan's young suzerain, Wu Man..."

When he said this, Qi Lu clearly saw that Li Ziyi smiled again, it was definitely a smile, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, that smile really made people shudder, as if Li Ziyi instantly changed from a little white rabbit to a A big wild wolf, the kind that eats people without spitting out bones.

Li Ziyi continued: "Wu Man, the young suzerain of the Wu family, is a fellow apprentice of the emperor. He studied under Guo Gong. Although he is more irritable, he is more loyal. Heavy punishment is inevitable, and the two suzerains tried their best to avoid the battle, why is there such a situation of life and death?"

Indeed, Qi Lu had seen Wu Man punish the Wu family who provoked trouble before, at Yin Zi's birthday banquet
