Chapter 91: The Gift
Li Jin didn't know if he would anger the emperor by doing this, but this was the only way in Li Jin's heart not to betray the emperor and to protect his own family. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The unfinished chess game that he saw in the dormitory of the old princess of Huaiyang, Li Jin had no clue at the time, but looking at the attitude of being treated carefully, the way of playing chess on both sides of black and white was very far from that of the old princess, and the state of glue was not inferior to what Li Jin had seen in any chess book, but because of the peculiar layout, Li Jin remembered it deeply.
And the old princess has only just arrived in Beijing at this time, and Jing Yu, who has lived in the palace for a long time, is rumored to be particularly good at archery and horse archery, but she has never heard that she likes to play chess. Therefore, it is conceivable that in this undecided game on the chessboard, the party playing chess must be the owner of this mansion, Huaiyang Wang Jingxi, who has been in Beijing for almost a year.
Although Li Jin has guessed that the other side of the chess game has too few clues and can't guess at all, I don't know who it will be, and I am afraid that it will be a vigorous and resolute big man looking at the trend of chess. But the whole feeling of walking in white chess is very familiar to Li Jin, just like the sandalwood accompanied by the smell of medicinal incense that the person in front of him has been remembering Li Jin since the first meeting, it feels very similar to Li Jin, which is similar to waiting for an opportunity under forbearance.
People who make such a plan and then act will naturally seek the stability of their own minds as much as possible, otherwise they will not be able to stand firmly in heaven and earth. Therefore, Li Jin dared to gamble on this, that is, he did not give Jingxi any substantive promise, and even clearly informed him of his intention not to help him, but he also revealed his intention that he would not cause harm.
At the same time, he gave Jingxi a dispensable additional benefit, which can be said to be completely beneficial, but also a disadvantageous proposal, which can be regarded as a proof of Li Jin's neutral position.
Just after staring at Li Jin's mouth so deeply, Jing Xi seemed to have figured out something, stretched out his frowning brows, and said with a smile: "Okay, what to write can be decided by you, but sometimes you have to go to some specific places as I request." ”
At this time, it was Li Jin's turn to frown, "I won't sneak into the camp tent of the Chinese army." Even if you do it reluctantly, it will be in vain, and if you don't enter, you will definitely be exposed. ”
"Of course, it's all places you can go to, and most of them are places you should go. Jing Xi smiled fascinatedly.
"I won't be a bridge for you to deliver messages. Li Jin said categorically.
Jing Xi also nodded happily and said, "You are not suitable either, I think, even if I give you the news, I probably haven't sent it out yet, and your fox tail is about to be exposed?" After finishing speaking, Jing Xi didn't forget to smile at Li Jin.
Li Jin glared at Jing Xi fiercely, noncommittal.
In fact, Jing Xi is very entangled at the moment, Jing Xi knows very well that Li Jin is showing that he will not report himself, but he also made it very clear that he will not join him, although such a person can remain neutral for a while, but it is a time bomb. The only constant in the world is change, and the reason why she can maintain such a neutral position at this time is only because of the delicate balance of power between the DPRK and China.
If there is a situation that is enough to tilt the scales and threaten Li Jin's most important thing, I am afraid that she will change her position the fastest. It's just that at this time, Jingxi also hopes to have one more pair of eyes on the frontier, a pair of eyes of a guest officer.
At that moment, both of them heard steady footsteps coming from the stone steps, and the occasional crunch of the saber against the scabbard. Li Jin felt that this slight sound could almost echo in the courtyard where no one was there and no wind.
A moment later, under the gaze of the two people in the pavilion, the white-clothed attendant appeared behind the gauze curtain at the entrance of the pavilion, Li Jin took a closer look and found that it was the masked man who had just danced the sword in the hall, and he was also the personal attendant of the King of Huaiyang, only to see him stand behind the curtain and bow down to Jing Xi and say: "Your Highness, the county lord has returned home safely, Her Royal Highness the old princess invites you to move to Woyun Pavilion, and the guests are here at this time." ”
"Good. Jing Xi got up and looked at Li Jin, so that the two of them would be together.
But this made Li Jin embarrassed, he disappeared out of thin air for so long, and at this time he appeared with the king of Huaiyang, and if he was not criticized, it could only be his own idiot's dream.
Li Jin said with a smile: "Your Highness can take the first step, and Li Jin will go there in a while." ”
"Do you know the way?" Jingxi still said in that joking tone.
"Don't worry about it, since you know where to go to, Li Jin will look for it in a while. Li Jin insisted.
Looking at Li Jin's side face that was as immobile as a mountain, but getting colder and colder, Jing Xi also put away his thoughts about teasing Li Jin, and said with a gentle smile: "You wait here for a while, and let him pick you up later." With that, he left on his own.
Li Jin watched the two of them until they disappeared behind the rockery in front of the courtyard gate, and finally relaxed the tense nerves in his body. Looking at the direction in which the two disappeared, Li Jin couldn't help but get up again after sitting down again.
Such a result was beyond Li Jin's expectations, not only the appearance of King Huaiyang, but also the agreement between the two later, looking at the empty courtyard, Li Jin didn't know how much the emperor would know about today's events, and how much he should say when he saw the young son of heaven again. But at the very least, you can't say the inevitable look in King Huaiyang's eyes just now, this is a certain thing. But what is going on with me at this time?
It is not only the eyes arranged by the emperor in the side of the plug, but also the eyes and ears of the king of Huaiyang in the north of the plug. Do you want to write the same letter to both of them?
Li Jin smiled bitterly in his heart, but he was afraid that his life would be difficult after his eyes and ears.
After Jing Yu hurriedly left the palace, he took his men and horses straight to Yanshan outside the city, where there was the most prestigious temple in Jingshi, Yunju Temple, and the gift that Jing Yu had prepared for the old princess was there.
At this time, he hurried back, and the two red clouds on his face hurried to the courtyard where the old princess was.
"Mother, mother!" Jing Yu was as happy as a child who had not yet reached the end of her life, and she was not flying in front of others. It's just that at this time, no one else behaves, but she can also see the shadow of her arrogance.
"You kid, you are really formless, and you are not afraid of the jokes of many guests. Although the old princess said the words of reproach, there was no reproach in her eyes, and it was a completely doting smile. and beckoned Jing Yu to come to his side.
has been blamed by his mother countless times, even his father has taught himself several times because of his perverseness, but Jing Yu still does his own thing, so Jing Yu doesn't pay attention to such an innocuous evaluation. Laughing and coming to the old princess, Jing Yu offered a treasure, took out the treasure he had just invited from the temple, took it out of his arms, and presented it to the old princess.
Jing Yu said like a treasure: "Mother guess, what is my gift to my mother today?"
