[System] The emperor can't do it

When Lin Xi woke up, she found that she was lying in a dilapidated house with a thin quilt covering her body. As far as the eye could see, there were coffins one after another all around her, which seemed even more strange in the middle of the night.

"Ah-"

Hearing the sound, Lin Xi looked up and saw a beggar with scars all over his face looking at him attentively with a bowl of something unknown.

"What does this mean?" Lin Xi frowned, pushing away the bowl handed over by the beggar.

This incident is really too weird, he just heard the knock on the door and walked over to open the door, then lost consciousness and appeared here again, and now there is a beggar who wants to drink strange things for himself.What a strange thing happened!

"Ahhh——" the beggar with the scar face couldn't speak, but just kept passing the bowl to Lin Xi, and then a few meaningless syllables came out of his throat.

"I'm talking about Dao Scar, don't rush to him if he doesn't accept your favor, have you taken a liking to him, usually you don't even want to give us an egg, today you just slaughtered the chicken, look You look like you value sex over friends." At this time, another beggar came in, he was tall and looked quite fierce, staring at the bowl of chicken soup in the hand of the beggar with scarred face, he even drool flowed out.

Lin Xi finally understood the kindness of the scar-faced beggar, but he is not in the mood to drink chicken soup now, he just wants to know why he is here.

"Thank you for your kindness, you should keep the chicken soup for yourself, but does anyone of you know why I am here?" His memory has been blank since the moment he opened the door, and he is sure He has no habit of sleepwalking.

"It's lucky for you kid, you were buried in the soil as a corpse. If it weren't for our brothers to dig the grave today, your little life would probably be gone." The beggar who came in later took it away The chicken soup in the scarface beggar's hand gurgled down his stomach, but the scarface just clenched his fists and didn't object.

Being buried in the ground?

Lin Xi finally understood what happened tonight. It seems that some people jumped the wall because they saw that their deeds were about to be exposed.It was thanks to Zhao Minglou that he was able to kill people and silence them. If it wasn't for his great fortune and fate, he might have already met the King of Hades at this moment.

The corner of Lin Xi's mouth twitched, revealing an extremely cold smile.Zhao Minglou, I didn't want to pursue this matter, but since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!

Lin Xi, who was concentrating on his inner world, didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in a place he couldn't see. Those eyes were full of longing, admiration, and concern...

After thanking all the beggars in the Yizhuang, Lin Xi ignored his still weak body and began to walk slowly back to the Wuming Temple. His child was still sleeping, and he didn't want Xiaoshu not to see himself after getting up in the morning.

"Don't follow me."

Lin Xi said impatiently to the shadow behind him, he was very grateful to the beggars for saving his life, and he would also pay a certain amount of money to express his gratitude, but this did not mean that he had to endure his stalking .

"Ahhh-"

Scarface was not angry when he was reprimanded, he still followed Lin Xi closely, limping forward.

Lin Xi couldn't help but want to speed up his pace, but he just woke up from the drug, and the consequence of the sudden violent movement was that he fell to the ground without standing still.

Seeing that Lin Xi had fallen, Scarface quickly stepped forward to help Lin Xi up, his face covered with scars covered his heartbroken expression.

"Let me go!" Lin Xi not only didn't appreciate it, but threw away Scarface's hand angrily. It wasn't because this person was sneaking behind him that he fell, so he was very angry.

Scarface seemed to understand that Lin Xi didn't want to see him, so he withdrew his hand embarrassingly, watching Lin Xi struggling to get up by himself in a daze.

"I told you not to follow me, otherwise I will be rude to you." Lin Xi warned directly, regardless of whether this person was a lifesaver or not.

Scarface stood on the spot and watched Lin Xi move forward slowly, and then continued to follow behind him when he was sure that Lin Xi would not find out that he existed. Only then did Scarface feel relieved and limped and continued to walk back, but at this time, the sky had already begun to dawn.

Above the court, the officials debated fiercely.

Sitting on the phoenix seat, Shu Yilan watched the courtiers argue coldly, while she casually picked up the teacup in her hand and took a sip, thinking that the court was getting more and more boring.

But at this moment, there was a burst of beating drums outside the court hall where Ansheng had always been, and everyone was shocked, because no one dared to beat the imperial drum for a long time.

There was a slight smile in Shu Yilan's eyes, it seems that going to court today will not be too boring.

"Who is outside the hall beating the drums to complain?"

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, it is a young man holding a child and beating the drums. It is said..." The guard looked at the courtiers in the hall, and hesitated to speak.

"Bluntly speaking." Shu Yilan's eyes lit up, who would the guards dare not mention?Taishi, prime minister, or the Long family?It's getting more and more interesting.

"Yes, he said that he wanted to sue the grand master of the court, and Mr. Zhao Minglou, the servant of the Ministry of officials." The guard who got the empress dowager's special permission reported the truth.

Taishi and Taishi's son-in-law, this combination is really refreshing. Everyone who heard the news exploded immediately, as if ten thousand flies were buzzing around Shu Yilan's ears, it was extremely annoying.

Shu Yilan frowned and patted the gavel tree, and the bottom finally settled down.

"Since you want to sue the imperial court, you have to follow the rules of the imperial court."

Shu Yilan's fluffy words caused the quiet court to explode again, complaining about the rules of the imperial court, that would be nail-biting!

All the ministers waited with an expression of looking forward to the show, but before the nail board was ushered in, an unexpected person was ushered in.

"I heard that today someone was beating drums outside the Golden Luan Hall to complain about grievances, so I came here to join in the fun. Will the Queen Mother not allow it?" Wen Xiaonian walked in from outside the hall with a smile on his face, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. , stepping on dragon boots, it really looks like that!

"Oh, the emperor wants to go to court, but it's too late for the Ai family to be happy, so why not allow it." Shu Yilan gave the emperor a meaningful look, and said with a smile.

Wen Xiaonian didn't care whether he was really happy or fake, and went straight to the long-vacant dragon seat in the Golden Luan Hall, and all the officials reacted one after another, shouting long live the emperor, long live, long live.

"Everyone loves to be flat."

Wen Xiaonian said while thinking, it feels really good to be an emperor, no wonder so many people want to be an emperor, he should have experienced this feeling a long time ago, although he is just an empty emperor now That's all.

"What are you waiting for, nail the board." Shu Yilan issued an order.

"The empress, I feel that it's better to forget the nail board. If the nail board rolls over, I'm afraid others will lose half their lives." Wen Xiaonian hurriedly pleaded.

He learned early in the morning that Lin Xi actually ran outside the Golden Luan Hall with Xiao Shu in his arms to sue the imperial court. He applauded in his heart and broke into a cold sweat for Lin Xi. Come here, fortunately in time.

The only thing he was puzzled about was that yesterday Lin Xi had said that he would not pursue the matter any longer, why he wanted to sue for grievance today, which is really puzzling.

As soon as his words fell, His Highness Long Aotian also echoed: "I think so too."

Although Wen Xiaonian's words have no weight, Long Aotian's words carry a lot of weight. As soon as he spoke, the entire Long family's power moved and all stood up to intercede for Lin Xi.

"What the emperor said makes sense." Shu Yilan nodded first, and before Wen Xiaonian became happy, he poured a bucket of cold water on the second half of his sentence, "But state-owned and state-law families have family rules. Follow it well."

Shu Yilan's words were like a needle that stabilized the sea, causing the other two groups of forces in the court to coalesce into one. Under the premise of three to two, Wen Xiaonian was unable to turn the tide, and could only watch the guards move out with a piece of paper. A wooden plank about two meters long, covered with sharp iron nails...

After a long time, Lin Xi appeared in front of everyone with the little tree in his arms. Seeing the shocking nail board, Lin Xi was also shocked, but quickly regained his composure.

He dared to beat the drums, and he had already expected this to happen, but if he could expose Zhao Minglou's true face, he could still bear the pain.

"You can regret it at any time if you want." Seeing that Lin Xi was still with a child, Shu Yilan inevitably felt a little pity in her heart.

"No, Cao Min is willing." Lin Xi said firmly.

Xiao Shu timidly looked at the courtiers above the court, his face was pale and he didn't say a word, he held his father's hand tightly, but he felt his father let go of his hand, and he grabbed his father's hand in fear. Clothes corner, whispered: "Daddy, don't."

"Little tree, Daddy will be right back."

Lovingly touching Xiaoshu's limp hair, Lin Xi resolutely walked towards the terrifying nailboard...
