crime of heart

Still holding his chin, Ji Yin watched Lu Mingshan's face change several times, and finally seemed to have made up his mind.

One by one, although I don't know what the determination is, it will not be the determination to go back with Ji He.Ji Yin shook his head slightly in his heart. It seemed that his younger brother had to pay some price for his arrogance when he was young.I'm afraid this little genius doctor won't be taken back so easily.

But that was all done by himself.What does it matter to him if he pays his own account?

"Don't say that."

Ji Yin changed the subject,

"You asked me why I came here this time. I wanted to see what plans they, Yuyao and the royal survivors have in mind?"

"Yuyao is dead! Where are the survivors?"

"Dead? I don't think so."

"Tudu City has fallen! Even my cousin has been reduced to a prisoner. If it wasn't for the fact that he met Ji Ning, I'm afraid there would be no bones left... Your Majesty, you say that, is it true?"

What's the meaning? "

Lu Mingshan blushed, but Ji Yin smiled unhurriedly,

"Ayan did end up tragically, but it doesn't mean that Yuyao is completely dead. Yuyao's biggest secret is still hidden in the hands of you royal family. Given time, it will not be known whether it will make a comeback."

Although Luming Mountain left Yuyao when he was very young, it is his homeland after all.He still felt humiliated to be talked about the subjugation of the country so frivolously, even if the other party was noble.Lu Mingshan looked at Ji Yin with some hostility.Ji Yin laughed,

"You don't have to look at me like that. I know you came to our Daxie when you were a teenager, and you couldn't get into the real circle of the Yuyao royal family at all. The same is true for your cousin. He may know more than you, but in these things Actually, he's just a scapegoat."

"Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean."

"Haven't you ever thought that Yuyao Kingdom will collapse at the first touch, where are all the elite soldiers and generals? Yuyao has been established for hundreds of years and is so rich, where are all these treasures now? When Tudu City fell, apart from Bai Qingyan, other royal families unexpectedly None of them were caught, where did they all escape?"

"Your Majesty! You mean?"

Lu Mingshan was even more surprised.

Ji Yin almost told him clearly that not only did the Yuyao royal family not perish in that war, but they might have gone into hiding, or even had other plans!And Bai Qingyan, and even the millions of people in Yuyao, are nothing but their abandoned sons!

"This is impossible. I have lived in Yuyao for more than ten years, and I am considered a member of the royal family. How come I don't know anything about these things?"

Although Lu Mingshan categorically denied it, he actually believed it eight or nine percent in his heart.After all, the person opposite is Daxie's emperor, so how could he talk nonsense?

Especially when he saw Ji Yin's calm gaze, he couldn't help but not believe it.

"But if what you said is true, Your Majesty, even if I don't know, my cousin shouldn't know! He is Prince Yuyao after all!"

"Ayan, he really doesn't know, or was calculated, or even willing to be abandoned - I'm not sure. But what I told you today is true.

Qingyu, in the royal room of Yuyao Kingdom, it is definitely not as innocent as you imagined. "

Ji Yin smiled slightly, but Lu Mingshan felt the back of his neck tighten.

"Your Majesty, did you come to Langye for this? You also want to get something from my cousin? Do you want to use him too?!"

"Qingyu, don't make your words so harsh. I really want to save his life. After all, we were together when we were young, and I don't want him to fall into Langye. But as the monarch of Daxie, I really care about Yuyao Where are those secrets, and what waves will they cause? I have to be responsible to my subjects, and even more so to my country. Besides, Ayan was murdered so badly, and you lost your homeland. If they really You are all treated as abandoned children, you don't want to know the truth? Don't you want to ask for an explanation?"

"What statement! What truth! Your Majesty, I have always respected you, but you must not take advantage of my cousin. He really..." Lu Mingshan felt a little embarrassed

However, it is even more sad.But Ji Yin didn't comment on his words.

At this time, Ji Ning had also returned to his study.He sat behind the desk, with a pen and paper in front of him, and scribbled down the words "Lang Ye Iron Cavalry__Long Ye" and "How Much Money?"

There is not much time, Ji Ning wants to sort out the things that can be done in these ten days - of course, Ran Yi may not give him a full ten days at all, so he has to hurry up even more.

Last night, he had reached an agreement with Tatsuno, and Tatsuno would secretly come forward to connect with the officers and soldiers of the Lang Ye cavalry in private.Which generals are trustworthy, the two of them actually know quite well.But just in case, in the first two days, we could only find the most infallible among them, and then asked them to connect most of them the day before the action.In this way, even if someone has the idea of ​​betrayal, there is no time to report it to Fu Yan.

But doing so also determines that until the last moment, the number of troops they can use is still unknown.

On Bai Qingyan's side, even though his eyes had changed color, Fu Yan had changed his face for him.Regarding Fu Yan, Ji Ning has always been worried, so he had to change Bai Qingyan's human skin mask again.

But Ji Ning has never done this because he still has selfish intentions—if he wanted to teach the exercises, Bai Qingyan would probably not agree.But since changing the mask requires Lu Mingshan's action, Bai Qingyan will definitely let go of her guard.So Ji Ning wanted to ask Lu Mingshan to use some medicine to make him lose consciousness.Only then can I pass on the practice to him.

__I just don't know how Bai Qingyan will react when she wakes up and sees her dead body.

Ji Ning thought blankly, Bai Qingyan hated herself for lying to him the most, she must be furious when she woke up, and even disappointed in herself.But at that time, he was probably already dead, so...forget it.

It's just that when he is angry, does he still have a trace of nostalgia?

Presumably it will.After all...there was that hug in the cave.

Ji Ning felt as if his heart was being torn apart.After fighting on the battlefield for ten years, he is really not afraid of death.But when he thought that he would never see Bai Qingyan after death, fear mixed with reluctance attacked his heart.Ten years, if they can do well!Why... Finally, there was a turning point,

Is it time to part with life and death?

If only I had some more time... and some chance...

However, there are never ifs in the world.

Ji Ning laughed at himself.Before he died, he had to make plans for the rest of Bai Qingyan's life.Although that person can follow the Daxie people, but after all, he is dependent on others.

How could a person as pure and innocent as Bai Qingyan live on the pity of others?

Even if he wanted to, but thinking of this, Ji Ning feared that he would die in peace.

"Come on, call me the housekeeper!"

Soon, the housekeeper waited in the study obediently, listening to his wishes.

"How many property and banknotes are there in the house now?"

"In terms of property... it's only a few thousand taels."

"How could it be so little?" Ji Ning never pays attention to the accounts, and was taken aback at this moment, "How big are the expenses in the family?"

"That's not true. We originally had few people in the general's mansion, and you don't like socializing, and you don't spend too much money, so the expenses are not big. But, have you forgotten, general? You usually support the parents and parents of those casualties, and replace them It costs a lot for them to raise orphans."

"That's right." Ji Ning frowned, "What about the others? Jade jewellery, antique calligraphy and paintings?"

"..." The housekeeper looked at Ji Ning inexplicably, "General, do you usually buy antique calligraphy and paintings, you don't have any idea...cough, do you count?"

"I don't like to buy those flimsy things! But in the past, His Majesty rewarded you with all these things. Where are these things? Is it because you didn't keep them well and lost them all!"

Hearing his arrogance, the butler shrank his head and argued aggrievedly,

"General! It's not that every time you take a look at it, you tell me dismissively, this kind of thing can't be eaten or eaten, it's useless to keep it, just burn it! So I..."

"Can you really burn it?! You prodigal bastard! You..."

"It's something that His Majesty bestowed upon you! Except for you, General, who has such courage! So I hid it in the small warehouse."

"Say it early! It's such a big detour."

Ji Ning looked at the housekeeper with disgust, but felt relieved.Those calligraphy and painting antiques are of extremely high value and are quite sought after by everyone in the officialdom.On the surface, it is all antique collection, trading and appreciation, but in fact it is collusion between officials and businessmen, bribery and party formation.Ji Ning couldn't understand their superficial artyness, secretly taking advantage of the opportunity to make money, and was even bored with these works of art.

But now that he needed money, he suddenly realized that these things were somewhat useful.

"General, those antiques, calligraphy and paintings can sell for tens of thousands of taels of silver. If you tell those pawnshops that they belong to you, General, maybe you can sell more. After all, these shops have official backers behind them. Anyone who wants to cling to the general suffers from no chance, so he will definitely not let this opportunity go." The butler was full of confidence, but Ji Ning let out a grin.

The butler still doesn't understand at this moment that the news that his general has been imprisoned by His Majesty for several days and has completely fallen out of favor must have spread throughout the officialdom.It would be nice if those people didn't add insult to injury.

What's more, now he is His Majesty's key surveillance target.He was afraid that if he stepped into the pawnshop with his front foot, the news that he wanted to escape with his back foot would reach Ran Yi's ears.

"No. You pick some small items and pack them into luggage. Don't let outsiders know that our family is raising money, understand?"

Although the butler was confused, he still nodded in agreement.Ji Ning asked again,

"What about the house deed and land deed?"

"General? You want to sell even the house deeds and land deeds?" The steward finally realized something was wrong, "What are you going to do? If you sell the property like this, you don't want to be an official in the capital anymore?"

"You don't need to worry about these. I just ask you... How much is the house deed and land deed?"

"In addition to this general's mansion, there are hundreds of acres of fertile land that His Majesty once rewarded, and there is only one farm and some fields outside the city." The steward's voice hesitated, "But general, if you sell all these, you In the capital, you really have nothing to lose!"

"Don't touch the fields rewarded by His Majesty. It would be bad if people found out."

Ji Ning mused, "I'll write you a note for that farm, and I'll consider it a gift to you. We've done a good job as master and servant, and we've done our best."
