Although Lin Xi did not come to the main hall in person, he could slowly piece together the scene from Zhao Jingyi's words.

Arrogant envoys, soft courtiers, helpless generals, angry emperors...... It should have been far away from him, but it was close.

Suddenly, Zhao Jingyi asked Lin Xi: "What do you think of this?"

Hearing this, Lin Xi put his hand into his cloak and looked ahead.

Such a dynasty occupies a large space in the history books of later events, and historians, military strategists, and critics can each analyze its causes, consequences, and endings from different aspects.

It's just that he is just a grass people, discussing the government in vain...... Lin Xi glanced at Zhao Jingyi, smiled but did not speak.

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"What is an official without a people, how can there be a home without a country, and the prestige of the country does not exist, just like a family without face, and people will always bully it. ”

Zhao Jingyi stopped, looked at Lin Xi, and slightly hooked the corners of his lips: "The words of scholars, before hundreds of officials became officials, they were often hung up. ”

Lin Xi thought for a while, and suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, sending this group of lords and officials to the Northland for a year, and their families will also go with them, if they come back, they can still value peace, well, it must be really a saint." ”

Zhao Jingyi looked at Lin Xi's smile, and suddenly wanted to ask, if there is a real fight, are you willing to go to the Northland together?

It's just that with this thought, Zhao Jingyi himself smiled and shook his head, this weak Lin Gongzi should stay in the capital peacefully, with him, he will always not let Hu Nubing come to the national capital.

Zhao Jingyi took Lin Xi around and finally arrived at the place, standing outside the courtyard door, and could vaguely hear the tinkling sound inside.

"Blacksmith?"

"Seen?" Zhao Jingyi pushed open the door and turned around and asked Lin Xi in surprise.

The Lin family is a scholarly family, and they are not martial, and they don't look like Lin Xi is often mixed in the market. The sound of striking iron is loud, and it spreads far and wide during evening classes, because the ordinary craftsmen's shops are in the depths of the market or in remote places.

However, the flood of costume dramas in later generations, Lin Xi is naturally no stranger, so he nodded, he was more curious about why Zhao Jingyi brought him here.

When I entered the courtyard, the sound of striking iron became clearer.

Zhao Jingyi walked into the workshop familiarly, and saw a shirtless man holding a hammer and beating a reddened knife, the long arm muscles were knotted, the dark skin was shiny, and each blow was extremely heavy and heavy, but he was one-armed.

"Third Brother Xie. ”

Lin Xi heard Zhao Jingyi call the big man like this.

Hearing this, Xie Hong looked up and saw Zhao Jingyi, and then after a few more beatings, he put down the hammer and threw the knife into the sink next to him.

"Why did the prince come in person, yo, and brought a child. ”

Xie Hong was surprised when he saw Lin Xi behind Zhao Jingyi, it was rare that Zhao Jingyi would bring a stranger over, but what made people wonder was that he still looked like a powerless little boy.

"By the way, this is Lin Xi. Zhao Jingyi introduced, and said to Lin Xi, "You can also call him Third Brother Xie." ”

Lin Xi naturally called obediently: "Third Brother Xie." ”

"Oh, little brother Lin, you sit down first, and I'll go in and get something. But after turning his gaze and not finding a place to sit, Xie Hong couldn't help but scratch his head, "You guys should stand for a while, I'll come out in a while, do you want to drink water?"

Zhao Jingyi shook his head, "No need." ”

Xie Hong turned around and entered the back room.

At this time, Lin Xi took a good look at the blacksmith shop, and his eyes fell on the knives that were still immersed in the sink, but if he looked closely, it was not a weapon, but a machete for farming, and then looked at the side, there were plowshares, and rough embryos of nail rakes, this is just a blacksmith shop, specializing in farm tools.

Lin Xi looked at Zhao Jingyi suspiciously, just when he found that the latter was also looking at him, his eyes were focused, so he said, "Lord Wang......"

He was about to ask why, but he heard Zhao Jingyi say: "Third Brother Xie was once a general stationed in the northern border, and later a deputy general of the Northern Expedition. I wanted to take him in, but he refused. ”

He also opened a blacksmith shop.

Such an iron-blooded man is naturally admirable, and Zhao Jingyi also respects him.

Lin Xi said: "If you enter the palace, although you don't have to worry about food and clothing, but after all, you will become a waste, it is better to fend for yourself, as long as the prince takes care of it, it will not be difficult to live in the future." ”

Zhao Jingyi bowed his head, "Third Brother Xie also said so, his skills are good, and he is also maintaining my gun in the north, but the imperial court explicitly prohibits the private opening of weapons shops." ”

So in addition to repairing a weapon for Zhao Jingyi, he made farm tools on weekdays, Lin Xi nodded, which can be explained.

As he spoke, Xie Hong walked out, a little confused by the strange atmosphere here. Lin Xi's eyes were immediately attracted by a long spear in his hand.

The dark golden body of the spear does not know the texture, the head of the gun is diamond-shaped, and the edges are sharp and glowing with cold light and cold air.

"Oh, take it. Xie Hong raised his hand and threw it.

"Go away, be careful. Zhao Jingyi turned his head sideways and instructed Lin Xi, then reached out and took it, firmly holding the gun.

Lin Xi hurriedly walked away a few steps, Zhao Jingyi played a few flower guns, suddenly his eyes narrowed, his face was solemn, and the divine light in his eyes exploded, Lin Xi saw Zhao Jingyi's body moving quickly, and the dancing spear dotted with red tassels was good-looking, and subconsciously held his breath, and finally heard a muffled sound, but it was the whole gun head inserted into the wooden door.

Lin Xi was finally able to take a long breath.

Xie Hong asked, "How is it?"

"Fabulous. Zhao Jingyi pulled out the gun and threw it back.

Xie Hong took it and looked at it carefully, before he was about to wrap it in a green cloth, and when he saw Lin Xi looking at the gun curiously, with eagerness in his eyes, he stretched out his hand to him.

"Little Brother Lin likes it, do you want to take a look, our prince has excellent marksmanship, and the one who □□ play right away is called a stick, and the Hunu people will be defeated under his gun, touch it, the prince will not be stingy." ”

Lin Xi looked at Zhao Jingyi, only to see the latter coming over, holding his hands horizontally to his chest after taking the gun, facing Lin Xi and saying, "It's a little heavy." ”

Xie Hong touched his chin with one hand and slurped.

The body of the gun is slightly cool in the hand, not cold, and there are rough fine lines on the touch, which is extremely beautiful in appearance and excellent in hand. Looking at the gun again, Lin Xi didn't dare to get started, for fear of accidentally pulling out the opening.

It is men who always have a love for cold weapons, and Lin Xi is naturally no exception. Since childhood, he has never touched an ordinary sword, let alone the spear of the main general who has been full of blood and baptized by war.

Excited, he grabbed the spear and lifted it up......

Lin Xi immediately decided to eat two more bowls of rice in the future.

Zhao Jingyi raised the corners of his mouth, with a smile in his eyes, put the gun up, Lin Xi glanced at it, and then continued to study with great interest.

Xie Hong watched in silence for a while, smoothed the corners of his twitching mouth, and then shouted: "Lord Wang, your spear is extremely hard, but it took me a lot of time to polish it, and it also broke a sharpening knife, fifteen taels of silver can be used?"

Zhao Jingyi naturally had no meaning, glanced at Lin Xi, who was having a good time in front of him, and then turned back to Xie Hong and said, "That pair of cicada wing daggers has been repaired, and I bother Third Brother Xie to send them to my house." ”

"Okay, give it to Xiao Shizi, it's enough in three days. ”

Zhao Jingyi didn't say yes or no, "Then don't bother Third Brother Xie." ”

Lin Xi withdrew his claws and said goodbye together, but before he went out, he suddenly heard Xie Hong ask, "Is the emperor going to war again?"

Zhao Jingyi replied: "I don't know." ”

"You're still leading the troops, aren't you?"

Zhao Jingyi didn't answer again, holding the gun wrapped in green cloth and took Lin Xi out of the courtyard.

When he went out, the spear in Zhao Jingyi's hand was handed over to the guards who were secretly following.

"Lord, someone has come to the palace, and I have been waiting for some time. Wei Yi took the spear and whispered.

Zhao Jingyi signaled that he understood, and said to Lin Xi: "Send you back to the Hou Mansion first." ”

Lin Xi saw that the familiar big black horse was led to Zhao Jingyi's side, and the horse seemed to remember him, and sneezed loudly at him and stretched the horse's head over.

Zhao Jingyi touched the horse's back to appease.

Lin Xi took a step back and shook his head, "Don't bother you, I still want to go again." ”

Seeing that Lin Xi was really unwilling, Zhao Jingyi was not reluctant, and saw that the Lin family's little servant was coming to the carriage not far away, so he turned over and got on the horse and whispered, "Be careful yourself." Then he was gone.

Gu Hai followed from a distance, and only dared to come over when he saw that Zhao Jingyi seemed to have the intention of leaving.

"Let's go, find a restaurant to rest. After walking with him for a long time, and sitting in every place, Lin Xi's feet were really a little sore.

Even though there was an assassination in Fenglaiju not long ago, it is still in and out, and it is lively.

At this time, the spring is coming, many students gather in the capital, and the place of this restaurant and teahouse is their gathering place, so most of the people who come into view are plain shirts and white scarves, and they are reading people with folding fans.

At this time, it was past the meal, it was the time of afternoon tea, Lin Xi didn't care, just sat in the lobby and listened to the storytelling, there was not much time in this way, no one disturbed him, and he could be at ease.

This is exactly what Prince Rui led his troops to go out and captured Prince Hunu, this was originally a joke that arose two or three months ago, and the people in the capital were already familiar with it, but Lin Xi listened to it for the first time, but he also felt fresh, and after listening to it, he felt that it was exaggerated and far from the truth, especially Zhao Jingyi, who had completely changed.

Rui Wang Ye is nine feet tall, with a thousand pounds of strength, he can easily kill a tiger with one palm, and the double axe dances to the ground and the tiger is mighty, and entering the Hunu army is like a no-man's land, and he can retreat from the danger of the siege with his own strength, like the reincarnation of the god of war.

Lin Xi took a sip of tea and settled down.

However, suddenly there was a startling sound, and I only heard the storyteller shouting, "Well, I am the son of Prince Rui of the Zhao family, and I will swear today that I will not expel and annihilate you, and I will not return to the dynasty, but come and die!"

Lin Xi almost squirted the tea in his mouth.

I finally swallowed it, and then I shook my shoulders and lay on the table panting.

He felt that he should pull Zhao Jingyi to listen to it together, I don't know what expression will appear on the face of this Rui prince, it must be more interesting than this storyteller.

It's just a pity that the palace is in a hurry, if there is a chance next time......

Lin Xi shook his head secretly with a smile, and was about to get up to give a reward, when suddenly a person sat next to him.

"Xiaoyou doesn't mind if the old man takes a place. ”

Lin Xi looked over and saw an old man looking at him with a smile, his gray hair was neatly combed, he was good with hostas, and his beard was the same color, but he was obedient and obedient, and he was not young when he looked at his hair color, but his eyes were clear and his face was less wrinkled, and he was wearing a clean and tidy gown, he was an elegant old gentleman, which made people feel very good.

Lin Xi didn't mind, "The old gentleman is casual." ”

So I called Xiao Er to come over, add tea cups, and eat some snacks.
