Self-help guide for non-professional young masters

"What are you doing here, this is not the place for you."

Looking up at the slightly red night sky, Li Ying shook his head helplessly, "It's a mistake these days to give umbrellas to passers-by with good intentions in anticipation of rain and snow, the world is getting worse..."

Xiao Beicheng picked up Junziyou who was leaning in his arms, except for that person, his patience with anyone was pitifully low at the moment.

"I'm afraid this snow is not small, Master Xiang should go back to the residence as soon as possible to avoid it."

"My lord was joking. Li is no longer the head of the officials. Now he is just a useless person lingering on his last breath. All he can do is to give you a paper umbrella to protect you from the wind and rain before it rains and snows. gone."

As he spoke, he opened the good oiled paper umbrella in his hand. The surface of the umbrella was plain white paper, with a picture of winter plums drawn with ink and rouge on it.

Li Ying turned the handle of the umbrella in his hand, so that the entire umbrella surface was exposed to Xiao Beicheng's eyes, allowing him to clearly see the picture embellished on it.

"Although the umbrella surface is beautiful, it is paper after all. When it encounters a storm, its life span is only once. If it is damaged, it can no longer be repaired. But for an umbrella, even if it is only once, it can cover the rain and snow for those who care. , There will be no more regrets in this life, right?"

"Umbrellas are too precious. I would rather brave the wind and snow than have a corner of the umbrella broken. Some good things are only suitable to be kept and treasured. If it is broken, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Seeing Xiao Beicheng decline his kindness and pass him by, Li Ying didn't hold back, but just handed the umbrella to the boy who pushed him here, and asked the boy to hold the umbrella to cover the sky close to their heads. .

"Just let him see you off for me. When he left three years ago, I had no chance to see him off. Now that he is back, I have to welcome him."

"Having a relationship with us will not end well."

The man smiled lightly, turned his head, parted his long forehead hair, revealing his right eye with a horrible scar.

"For example, should I also take away my only eye? I am already disabled, sitting in a wheelchair is no different from lying on a couch, and it doesn't matter if you give me more trouble. At least for now , I can still maintain the former dignity of the Prime Minister's Mansion, win over the former staff, don't wait until I really have nothing and nothing before regretting it."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand, and the boy holding the umbrella made a "please" gesture.

Xiao Beicheng couldn't refuse politely, so he had no choice but to embark on the road that Li Ying had arranged for him.

But after walking a few steps, he changed his mind again, turned around and looked at the person with his back facing him with a smile, "This king has changed his mind again."

This time the person who raised his hand became Li Ying, pointing in the direction of the former prime minister's mansion, and said softly: "Please."

"You have really changed a lot. I was really surprised that a person who was so afraid of trouble in the past would come to find trouble by himself."

"The mountain and rain are about to come and the wind is full of buildings. A torrential rain that will sweep the entire capital is coming. How can I stay out of it. I don't like trouble, and I don't like to owe favors. No matter what others choose, the life-saving grace of the year is always I have to pay it back. Only I will repay it twice, there is no reason for me to owe anyone."

Looking at the plaque in front of Xiangfu's gate that had changed the word "Lifu", Xiao Beicheng felt emotional and stood there for a long time before following Li Ying into the door.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Linyuan had already been waiting here, and when he saw Junziyou covered in blood, his eyes were full of worry.

"My lord, the news spread late, which caused you and your husband to suffer."

He was dressed in a red and black flying fish suit, with a saber hanging on his waist. Obviously, he had just arrived from Dali Temple not long ago, and he must have heard the news that King Jin and his party were blocked when they entered the city.

Xiao Beicheng placed Junziyou in a secluded courtyard, and sent someone to call Jiang Yanqing to take care of him. He walked out of the room and talked with him about what happened in the capital recently when he was free.By this time, the sky was already dawning.

Jiang Linyuan said: "I don't have much time to be an official, so I can only make a long story short. In fact, not long after the prince left Beijing, a man who looked like his husband joined the Ding'an Hou Mansion and joined forces with the old Hou Ye, claiming that someone wanted to take him back. Instead, he escaped the pursuit of the enemy when his life was hanging by a thread, and only dared to return to Beijing to tell the truth after three years of wandering. The common people all believe that he is the gentleman Xiao Digong who repeatedly solved strange cases back then, I am afraid..."

In this way, Junziyou's situation is very bad. Junzi'an's trick of the villain to sue first is very powerful. It cleverly explained the reason why Junziyou had to fake his death, and replaced his identity, pushing all the blame to the real The gentleman swims up.

Jiang Linyuan paced uneasily, "If he was disguised, everything would be easy to explain. But the official thought that the other party was coming aggressively, so he must be prepared for it, so he didn't dare to act rashly."

Xiao Beicheng was calm, took a sip of the teacup, glanced over the two of them, and then fell on the reflection of the tea soup in the cup, and asked, "Do you know who is pretending to be a gentleman?"

Li Ying and Jiang Linyuan looked at each other, and the latter quickly looked away. Obviously, he had guessed about this.

"It seems that Mr. Jiang knows his identity very well. He is Jun Zi'an, who died of illness more than 20 years ago, and Jun Zi'an's twin brother. As early as when an empty coffin was dug out from the ancestral grave of Jun's family, this king guessed that their brothers were killed Someone with a heart took advantage of it, and if it is true that Lin Xici is a remnant of the former royal family as the rumors say, and the Jun family brothers are Lin Xici's sons, then there is only one answer that can be drawn."

He put the lid back on the rim of the cup, crossed his fingers, and raised his chin. His eyes were indifferent, and his tone was cold: "It is the Shuobei Jiang clan who gradually penetrated into the capital."

Jiang Linyuan sighed, "It seems that the prince still doesn't believe me."

"This king believes that you have true feelings for him, but from the moment you approached him at the Qionghua Banquet, everything you did was with an unknown purpose. How can this king believe you?"

"You should believe him. Not everyone in Jiang's huge family has the same position. At least what I have planned with him has never been harmful."

Jiang Yanqing, who was supposed to be taking care of Jun Ziyou in the wing room, suddenly appeared in the hall, which made Xiao Beicheng even more headache. Seeing the two singing together, he was a little too lazy to resist, so he simply closed his eyes.

"If you still have a conscience, let's talk about the cause and effect."

Jiang Yanqing glanced at Jiang Linyuan, winked at him, the latter folded his hands and retreated, then Jiang Yanqing sat in his position just now, crossed his legs, and drank his remaining tea in a dignified manner.

"Mr. Jiang is busy with affairs. He has to fight wits and bravery with Dali Temple Secretary Si Ye all day long. It is not easy. If he is not careful, he will be pushed to the bottom of the valley. Please understand, my lord."

He thanked the maid who came to bring the tea, thought about his words, and said: "As a subordinate, I have no right to make irresponsible remarks to the Jiang family, but the fact that the Jiang family is not in harmony, I think the prince has heard of it too. When the former dynasty fell, the Jiang family split into two factions, one was the extreme conservative faction, and the other was the moderate reformist faction, and Master Jiang and I belonged to the latter."

"The so-called conservative faction is planning to find the blood of the former royal family and restore the Jing family?"

"That's right, but the reformers believe that the development of history is normal when dynasties change. You don't have to stick to the past that is doomed to perish. You just follow the ancestral precepts of He Qing Haiyan. No matter who you are, you should do your best to assist the government. In the past hundred years, although there were conflicts between the two factions, there was not much confrontation until one person's life experience was dug out."

Xiao Beicheng raised his eyes, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and said a person's name unhurriedly: "Lin Xi Ci."

"That's right, Mr. Lin was pointed out to be the blood of the former royal family, which led to the next series of events. The court wanted to kill him, but the old-fashioned faction did everything possible to deal with the former emperor, and they did not hesitate to trade a large number of talents just to keep Mr. Lin. life."

"This is taking advantage of the late emperor's desire to love talents, but how could the late emperor have the temperament to let others control him? Once he achieves his goal, he will definitely get rid of Lin Xici."

"My lord had a good idea. The old school was worried that Mr. Lin would be killed by the emperor on the day he couldn't help the late emperor, so he was eager to rescue Mr. Lin from prison, but Mr. Lin himself made a decision after learning the cause and effect. A shocking decision."

Speaking of this, it is not difficult to imagine what the result will be.

Li Ying, who was silent for a long time, opened his mouth, "It seems that Lin Xici's death was his own end."

Jiang Yanqing's eyes were full of regret, with a hint of sadness, which showed that his guess was true.

"Master Lin has a strong temper. After learning of his own life, he declined Jiang's offer to prove his innocence, and committed suicide in prison. Conservative parties have always doubted his death, believing that the former emperor killed him painfully to remove this stumbling block. The killer, after that, did have some extreme behaviors, causing the government to fall into chaos."

"It's like the pox epidemic that pervaded the capital back then."

Xiao Beicheng told the truth in one word, Jiang Yanqing shrugged, unable to explain.

Prior to this, even Xiao Beicheng had never thought that the plague that killed Shenci's father was actually caused by human beings. If this matter were made public, the Shuobei Jiang family would change from an enviable famous family to a famous family. He became a street mouse that everyone shouted and beat.

Jiang Yanqing was also very helpless, "I don't agree with the behavior of the old school, but in Jiang's, I'm just an insignificant person, I don't have the right to speak, and no one cares about my thoughts. All I can do is use It’s my own way to oppose this approach.”

Li Ying asked again: "After Lin Xici's death, did Jiang's conservative faction immediately find his widow?"

"No, after all, Lord Lin's personal bodyguard still had some tricks. It wasn't until five years later, when the two twins grew up, that the conservative faction followed the vine to find Gusu. Not long after, the eldest son, Jun Zi'an, died of illness, and Jun Sigui I also suffered from an incurable disease, and I endured it for several years, but I still couldn’t get over it.”

"According to what you said, Jun Sigui's illness seems to be..."

"Li Xiang had a good idea. Someone did something wrong, including Jun Ziyou."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yanqing took out a delicate porcelain bottle from her sleeve, only the size of a palm, pulled out the stopper, poured a scarlet liquid from it, dripped it into the teacup, and immediately dyed the whole cup of tea into a jet black color .

"Although the asthma is difficult to heal, there is no symptom of vomiting blood. It is obvious that he has been poisoned by someone who has a small illness every two days and a serious illness every three days. In the past three years, I have visited the people and asked After consulting countless doctors in the rivers and lakes, they finally found out that it is a kind of poison called "Bone-Selling". control."

This is the reason why he would have another attack on the day when he reunited with Jun Zi'an.

The author has something to say: I feel sorry for my baby Ziyou, you should be careful and cute. This poison called "Selling Bone" was mentioned by Eunuch Huan at the beginning, and he once gave his biological father Lin Xi a farewell. The poison Master Lin took, that is to say, the person who killed him and the person who killed Daddy Lin are the same.
