In the Taishi Mansion, Yi Hongyuan walked back and forth in the courtyard of the study with a scroll in his hand, walking back and forth at a slow pace, looking thoughtful. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he is dressed in simple home clothes, and there are no other luxurious accessories on his body except for the jade pendant around his waist. At first glance, although the upright facial features lack the majesty of the court, they still reveal an existence that is impossible to ignore.

"Taishi is really good Yaxing. ”

The cold words sounded behind him, Yi Hongyuan stopped, turned to look, and saw Lin Xiaoyu walking in with Siya in white clothes, sitting down in front of the stone table calmly. "Say, what does the Taishi summon command?"

Siya was not as casual as him, and when she saw Yi Hongyuan, she immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "I've seen my godfather." ”

"No need to be polite, sit down. Yi Hongyuan nodded, paced over, threw the book on the table, and sat down. Turning to Lin Xiaoyu, he asked, "How are things going?"

"Everything was planned. Lin Xiaoyu responded casually, turning her gaze into the distance with an indifferent expression, and did not look at him.

"Gone?" Yi Hongyuan frowned slightly, obviously not satisfied with such a brief answer.

The corners of Lin Xiaoyu's lightly raised mouth did not show half a smile, but with a little mockery, and said casually: "Taishi, this is not a believer?"

Yi Hongyuan's face flashed a dark cloud, and he quickly changed to a light smile in the blink of an eye, "Where is it, Lin Gongzi is at ease when he does things." I came to you today to discuss other important matters. "Lin Xiaoyu's temperament is very clear to him, although he is doing things for him, but in the end, he is a person from the rivers and lakes, different from the people he personally cultivates, many things and attitudes should not be too tough and urgent. What's more, he still has use value now, no matter what aspect is a good chess in his hand, of course he will not give up because of this little thing.

Siya's lowered eyes flashed, and she raised her eyes and asked, "What does Godfather command?"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiaoyu said, "Xiahou Yichen's matter, right?" The words were questions, but the meaning was already quite certain and clear.

This made Yi Hongyuan, who had not yet spoken, a little surprised, he knew Lin Xiaoyu's means and ability to deal with things, but he didn't know that he was so keen, and he had already seen the prophet before he said anything. At this time, he looked at Lin Xiaoyu, the expression in his eyes was extremely deep, and he couldn't tell what it was like to have a complicated mood, he was emotional, and he was even more afraid. If such a person is an enemy, I am afraid that it will be another enemy as difficult to deal with as Xiahou Yichen! He pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "It seems that Lin Gongzi already knows.

Siya's heart tightened, and she glanced at Lin Xiaoyu worriedly, a little unsure why he, who had always been low-key, wanted to show his edge in front of his godfather, which was not like his style at all.

Yi Hongyuan's rapidly changing expression couldn't escape Lin Xiaoyu's eyes, but he didn't care, because only he knew that he did it on purpose. Compared with the previous obedience and low-key, the reason why he deliberately showed his edge was to let Yi Hongyuan understand: even if he is using him, he must always remember to be jealous of him, so as not to always carry him behind his back and have some thoughts that he shouldn't have. Moreover, for a particularly conceited and arrogant person like Yi Hongyuan, the more people he fears, the more he has to control and reuse, in order to highlight his extraordinary ability. And he can just take advantage of this to get closer to everything about Yi Hongyuan. "I am on the same path as the Taishi, and how dare I ignore the people and things that the Taishi is concerned about. Lin Xiaoyu's calm expression no longer has the initial superficial pretense, and the cold and clear seriousness is a kind of incomprehensible profundity.

If Xiahou Yichen was so easy to solve, it wouldn't have dragged on until now, Siya always felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it, he still expressed the doubts in his heart, "Godfather, will the persecution of Xiahou Yichen be too tight?" From the incident of Yan Li to the present, we have never let go of even the slightest opportunity, but haven't you seen the final result of each action?"

When she mentioned it like this, Yi Hongyuan couldn't help but think of the shame of the previous failures, whether it was to Xiahou Yichen or Leng Xuran, his painstaking calculations finally collapsed, and he didn't hurt a single hair, but he was bitten. He gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Presumptuous, are you laughing at the old man's incompetence or questioning the old man's decision?"

"My daughter doesn't dare, I just don't understand, how could the godfather, who has always been calm and serious, suddenly hurry up his actions against Xiahou Yichen? We have been planning for a long time, and most of our godfather's protégés are pillars of the DPRK and China, and they are in important positions. Today, why can't you hold your breath?" Siya calmly met his gaze, and was not timid because of Yi Hongyuan's anger.

As the so-called authorities are fans, her words are a word to wake up the dreamer. Yi Hongyuan's slippery mind immediately comprehended, thinking about what he had done, although it seemed to be step-by-step, calculating layer by layer, but looking at everything together, it was indeed as Siya said, many things became hasty and impatient unconsciously. Yi Hongyuan's tense old face was at an impasse, and his cautious expression didn't know whether he was reflecting or re-calculating.

Siya moved her gaze slightly to Lin Xiaoyu, hoping that he could say something. The latter lowered his head at the right time, without the slightest response to her meaning.

Yi Hongyuan's impatience Siya didn't understand, but he knew. This pressure is not so much from Xiahou Yichen, but from Yueyin Kingdom, which is good friends with the Dragon Shadow Kingdom, or more directly, from Leng Xuran. At present, only the national strength of the Dragon Shadow Kingdom of the three major countries is the most stable and calm, the reason is that the emperor only has two sons, Xiahou Yixuan and Xiahou Yichen, one ascends the throne and the other assists, there is no complicated internal struggle between the dragon and the tiger to weaken the national strength, and the two brothers are dedicated to managing external troubles, so to a large extent, they have won the first opportunity, and they are naturally much stronger than other two countries with internal and external troubles. Although the Yue Yin Kingdom and the Tianjin Kingdom are strong, the internal fighting has always been in dire straits.

The most headache for Yi Hongyuan is the recent Yueyin Kingdom, since Leng Xuran returned to the disaster relief has won the hearts of the people, and his status in the court has soared, coupled with the old emperor's own grace to him, so that he stands out among all the adult princes and won the jackpot, although it has not yet been canonized, but who is the crown prince, people with a little vision can see that the situation of Yueyin Kingdom is a foregone conclusion from this. It's no wonder that Yi Hongyuan is anxious to quickly solve Xiahou Yichen, Yueyin Longying has a good relationship between the two countries, and Leng Xuran has always advocated good relations, among which he takes it for granted that he has made a lot of efforts, coupled with his lifelong friendship with Xiahou Yichen and Xiaoyu's relationship, if he succeeds to the throne one day, it will naturally be a big obstacle to Yi Hongyuan's ambitious cause.

Leng Xuran and Gu Ruoyao's wedding two months later, it seems that he got the news.

"What does Lin Gongzi think about this?" After a while, Yi Hongyuan had come back to his senses, reached out and took the book on the table, his eyes were on the book, but his mind was paying attention to Lin Xiaoyu's movements.

Lin Xiaoyu pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Siya is right, things can't be rushed for a while. The net has been cast on the Lin Mansion's side, we just need to add fire and borrow my junior sister's hand to stay until Lin Lanhai is cornered, and he, a fish who refuses to submit, will ask for the Taishi's door, and he will be caught in the bureau. As for the rest, there is always a chance to come step by step, so why worry about big things. ”

At the mention of Lin Xiaoyou, Yi Hongyuan looked up at him vigilantly, and he didn't see anything on his face before he was secretly relieved, "You found the woman who looks like her mother?"

"That's right. Lin Xiaoyu didn't understand what he meant, "It's inevitable for my junior sister to deal with Lin Lanhai, and I just want to speed up her movements." ”

Afraid that Yi Hongyuan would be suspicious of Lin Xiaoyu, Siya also hurriedly said: "It is indeed such a godfather, the person has been successfully placed by Lin Lanhai's side, just wait for a suitable time, and we can release the news to the Wu family." ”

Yi Hongyuan nodded, but didn't say anything, just briefly advised, "If things go well, don't relax, so as not to have too many complications." After speaking, while Lin Xiaoyu was not paying attention, he secretly gave Siya a look.

Siya remained silent, the matter was discussed, and the two left together. After walking for a while and waiting for the surroundings to be calm, a figure suddenly climbed over the wall and entered, it was Siya who went and returned.

"Godfather, I don't know what else to order?" she was quite curious in her heart, why did her godfather, who had always trusted Lin Xiaoyu, leave her alone, and what could not be said in front of Lin Xiaoyu.

Yi Hongyuan looked at her and sighed slowly, and said in a deep voice: "What you just said does have some truth, but you can't just do nothing, there is a good opportunity to clean up Xiahou Yichen right now, you should know how to arrange it." Don't reveal the news, even Lin Xiaoyu, understand?"

Siya opened her mouth, hesitated for a while, but finally didn't say anything, and took the order to retreat.

After eating a meal early in the morning, Xiahou Yichen went out after a few simple words, and didn't say when he would come back. There is no need to take care of his diet and daily life, nor does he have to pretend to act in front of everyone, it is rare to get back his own space and freedom, Lin Xiao is happy in his heart.

After reading the book for a while, there was nothing to do, and suddenly she felt idle, and she couldn't help but think that the two shops in the Lin Mansion had never been seen since Xiahou Yichen found someone to help her take care of them.

Although Lan Yu and the three of them were worried, they didn't block her as much as before when they thought that there were secret guards by her side to protect her, and they served her to comb her hair and change clothes, and the woman dressed as a man went out quietly through the back door.

As she left, a cowering figure appeared from behind the rockery next to her, but it was a little girl who was no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. I saw her stretch out her head and look around, and turned around and walked quickly towards Yin Qiumeng's courtyard in the mansion.

Since she took over, the two shops have maintained their original business, but the names of the signs have been changed. Hongfutang Tea House was changed to Ning Zhizhai, and Jin Xiangrui Inn was changed to Linxiang Building, the reason for this is to consider that public places are mixed, and the most effective use is to collect information from the outside and establish her own intelligence network.

Lin Xiaoyou went to Ning Zhizhai first, and after confirming that everything was worry-free, he went to Linxiang Tower. The people who work in these two shops, from the shopkeeper to the junior servants, are all people who Xiahou Yichen arranged for her to be very trustworthy. It's much easier to have a trustworthy manpower, she doesn't need to come forward if she has nothing to do on weekdays, she just needs to check the income of the account book on time every month, if she really needs to take an idea, the steward will also come to the door to report in person, how to arrange it They understand it themselves, and she doesn't have to worry about it at all.

However, today Ning Zhizhai is too peaceful, but Linxiang Tower is not so smooth. Before Lin Xiaoyu approached, he saw that this side was very lively, and a large group of people were gathered at the door of Linxiang Building for some reason, and everyone pointed and didn't know what they were saying, it seemed that someone didn't want her to worry.

"Linxianglou has beaten people, Linxianglou has beaten people, everyone come and comment. What Linxiang Building is nothing more than that, the dishes are not allowed to be said by others, and if the boss is changed, he dares to bully the guests, if he has no ability, don't come out to mix. Obviously, the food here used to be delicious, but the boss changed even the taste. You don't taste it yourself, what kind of cod soup, the entrance is tasteless and even ordinary cold water is not as good, there is no special at all, the prosaic craft is still closed early, we spend money to eat not to drink cold water, let alone to be humiliated. Just a few comments, you rushed up and beat them up, which was too deceitful. If it weren't for the delicious food made by Jin Xiangrui Inn before, who would want to come up here, right?" At the door of Linxiang Tower, a man with a blue nose and swollen face pointed at Linxiang Tower and scolded loudly, inciting the emotions of onlookers while talking.

With his words and actions, the onlookers discussed, "It's so hateful, how can there be such a business." ”

"That's it, even if this son is picky, he can't hit people at will. ”

"Reason goes all over the world, and unreasonable is difficult to move an inch. It's so rampant at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and I don't know how to bully us ordinary people in other places!"

Everyone talked about it one by one, and they all held grievances for the man, and pointed the finger at Linxiang Tower. Lin Xiaoyou squeezed into the crowd and didn't make a sound, just secretly paying attention to the crowd's every move. Seeing that the number of onlookers is increasing, the reputation of the store will inevitably be affected if it continues.
