"Did Qin Shizi say when Lord Qin would return home?" He Linwan asked He Lan.

"He only said that his father was going to run an errand for His Majesty, and when he came back......," He Lan leaned over and whispered very much, "Father's position can be moved up again." ”

He Linwan thought for a moment, "Lord Qin has won the trust of His Majesty over the years, I heard that it was because he had the skill of being a dragon back then?"

He Lan said with a smile, "I have heard the prince mention this matter, and I don't know about it outside, and my father and His Majesty have known each other earlier than everyone thinks." At that time, His Majesty was still a prince who had not been sealed, and his father was still the Black Dragon Guard of the former emperor......"

"Black Dragon Guard?" He Linwan was stunned and said with some surprise, "Lord Qin was once a Black Dragon Guard?"

He Lan nodded, "Yes, I just don't know why not many people know about this." ”

He Linwan didn't speak, she remembered something.

The Black Dragon Guard under the current emperor is in the same vein as the Black Dragon Guard in the period of the first emperor, but the Great Zhou Dynasty was only established during the first emperor's period, and the court situation was still a little unstable, and the assassination encountered by the first emperor continued, so many of the Black Dragon Guards responsible for the safety of the emperor were masters of martial arts, and although the current Black Dragon Guard had also undergone rigorous training, most of them were only better than ordinary soldiers.

And the Black Dragon Guard in the period of the first emperor was also brave because of his outstanding ability and courage, and I heard that among them, there were a group of top martial arts people called "Shadows", who were responsible for doing some private things for the emperor.

Qin Dingqu has gone from the Black Dragon Guard of the first emperor to the current high position, logically speaking, this experience is a very rich political capital, which can be bragged about from time to time, but very few people know about it.

Then there is only one possibility, Qin Dingqu is the "shadow" in the Black Dragon Guard, because only the "shadow" who needs to act secretly needs to conceal his identity.

He Lin still didn't understand a little before the night, Qin Dingqu had been exiled as an official most of the time, and he had no opportunity to work hard in front of the emperor all the time, it stands to reason that such a person should not be the emperor's most trusted confidant, but Qin Dingqu just was, no matter how long he left Beijing, the emperor did not forget this henchman.

Now it seems that Qin Dingqu must have only been released on the surface, but in fact, he is still secretly working for the emperor, and this thing must not be able to see the light of day.

In this way, what else could the emperor send Qin Dingqu to do related to Li Yu?

"Big sister, what's wrong?Is there something wrong?" He Lan looked at He Linwan's face and asked carefully.

He Linwan smiled at He Lan, "It's fine." ”

At this time, He Lan's maid came back and said that Qin Hengyuan was a little drunk from drinking in the outer courtyard, and the steward arranged for him to rest in the outer courtyard.

"Who is guarding in front of the prince? Has the hangover soup been served? Have you explained ......" He Lan asked again and again after listening to the maid's report.

He Linwan interrupted her with a smile and said, "Okay, if you're really worried, just go over and take a look." ”

He Lan blushed, but still got up and said, "Then I'll go over and see him." ”

He Linwan nodded and got up to send He Lan out.

Waiting for He Lan to leave, He Linwan immediately asked Chunxiao to guard the house, explaining that if someone looked for her, she would say that she had drunk some wine at noon and wanted to sleep for a while, and she went over the wall to the courtyard across the road from the He family to find the fox.

Since Li Yu left Beijing, Hu Yao has been stationed in this small courtyard, and he was very surprised to see He Lin suddenly come over in the middle of the day.

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Although He Linwan looked no different from usual, Hu Yao, who had always been meticulous, found that Miss He had just rubbed the corners of her skirt when she climbed over the wall, and the hair on her sideburns was also a little messy, although this subtle difference may not be visible to others, but it still made Hu Yao alert.

He Lin didn't say a word of nonsense in the evening, and said directly: "Send a letter to your family quickly, the emperor is afraid that he is going to do something to him, and he has sent a group of masters to Donglin." ”

The fox was shocked, "Where did the girl get the news?"

He Lin said lately: "Uncle Ning, the person sent by the emperor is very likely to be him. ”

"Yes, the subordinates will arrange it immediately. ”

Qin Hengyuan is still in Hefu today, He Linwan is afraid that he will find something, and it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time, so after explaining, he plans to go back, he took two steps and remembered something, stopped again, and turned back and said: "Tell your family son, I will wait for him in the capital." ”

After saying this, He Linwan left.

Hu Yao couldn't help but be moved again: What a good girl! Master, you must come back alive to marry her! Otherwise, you will be cheaper than others.

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, this day is the day of the stove.

According to what Mama Wang told Chun Nier to their little maids, this day is the day when the Lord of the Stove goes to the Heavenly Court for a banquet, and his old man wants to tell the Emperor of Heaven what happened in the mortal world this year, and the purpose of sacrificing to the God of the Stove is to let the Lord of the Stove say good things to them in front of the Emperor, bless them with safety and success, and have more than one year in the coming year.

He Linwan doesn't know if the coming year will be safe and smooth, but this year is not destined to be a smooth year.

On this day, news came from Donglin that the prince of Hengyang was assassinated in Donglin, but fortunately, there were a few soldiers from the Wendeng camp at that time, and Li Yu was only slightly injured in the end.

It is said that two days before the assassination of the prince of Hengyang, when he was drinking with others outside, he made a limerick poem to mock He Guanglie, the commander of Dengzhou Guard, who was afraid of the inside, but he didn't want to be heard by He Guanglie, who happened to have dinner with his colleagues.

Commander He was furious, if someone hadn't stopped him, with Commander He's violent temper, Li Yu would have to lie down and leave the restaurant that day. Before leaving, Commander He let go of cruel words, saying that he must teach Li Yu on behalf of King Hengyang to know and know, and the truth that disaster comes from his mouth!

Because of this dispute between the two, after Li Yu was assassinated, the people in the Wendeng camp believed that He Guanglie instructed him, and of course Commander He refused to admit this pot, and when the people in the Wendeng camp came to the door to ask for an explanation, Commander He continued to speak ruthlessly with great disdain: "Beat Li Yu's kid, Lao Tzu can use it to find someone else to play assassination? Lao Tzu can't wait to beat him on the street and make him kneel and shout Dad!"

Commander He thought he was above board and disdained to take revenge on Li Yu with selfish means, but no one believed him!

Even Du Cheng, the deputy commander he single-handedly promoted, secretly asked him, "My lord, why don't you call me to kill your son?" As long as you give an order, your subordinates will copy the guy and do it with you!"

On the other side, Li Yu beat Gao Feng with a blue nose and swollen eyes.

Gao Feng cried wolf: "Spare your life! spare your life! Senior brother! Senior brother! If you have something to say! I am the only baby egg of the Gao family left by your master's three generations, and I am also responsible for the inheritance of the Gao family!! little junior brother, don't look at the excitement, stop your senior brother!"

Cui Yan sat on the branch of the tree, clicking and biting the apple while shaking and fading, and rolled his eyes when he heard the words: "Didn't I stop me? I want you to change the poem, you have to change it." You dare to let your senior brother and his future father-in-law misunderstand him and sarcastically mock him, the old man is afraid of guilt, and I can't stop you from sending you to death. ”
