When he left the cell door, there was a dim candlelight, and Pei Xuan followed the cell head forward nervously.

"My lord, the people brought it. ”

Under the candlelight, there was a person sitting in front of the square table, and when he heard the words, he raised his head, with an unfamiliar face with Chinese characters, looking like he was in his forties.

"Pei Gongzi, please sit down, I'm tired of Zhao Tou. As he spoke, he handed a purse to the cell boss.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Zhao Tou took it and checked it in his hand, bowed down with satisfaction.

After that, there were only two people in the whole room, him and Pei Xuan.

There were two cups on the table, and the national character face poured tea for Pei Xuan, and said with a smile: "Pei Gongzi, don't stand, please sit." ”

Pei Xuanhu looked at the face of the national character suspiciously for a while, frowned deeply, and finally sat down.

He didn't speak, and he didn't touch the tea, the other party was not good, but he was just a scholar and really didn't know what else to do.

"Pei Gongzi is afraid that he doesn't understand, why are the talented people on the list, but you are the only one on the list?"

The national character face didn't seem to care about Pei Xuan's coldness, but just said it with a calm expression.

Pei Xuan's heart moved, but he still didn't speak.

Guozi face said with a low smile: "Lord Lin is high-spirited and bright, and his righteousness is admirable, but it is Pei Gongzi who is more admired below, if it weren't for you, how could His Royal Highness King Liang have the last laugh, and how His Royal Highness the King of Shu fell short, I want to come to His Royal Highness the King of Shu because of the lack of righteous people like you to destroy relatives." ”

Having said that, there was a thick sarcasm in Pei Xuan's ears, and as soon as he lifted his fig leaf, his daily guilt was directly exposed to the sun.

His face was blue and white for a while, and finally turned red, Pei Xuan said fiercely: "Yes, I am indeed arrogant and arrogant, and I am also to blame for today's ending, did Your Excellency deliberately come to ridicule me?

Guozi Face laughed out loud when he heard this, waved his hand and comforted: "Pei Gongzi is a little calm, don't be impatient, I didn't come to the well today, but to help Pei Gongzi." ”

"Help me?"

"Exactly, Pei Gongzi is brilliantly written, even if he doesn't cheat, he can be at the top of the high school list, if it weren't for the Huaizhou incident involving His Royal Highness King Liang, he would not have been arrested and put in prison by the Criminal Department, which shows that he was wronged. ”

Pei Xuan glanced at him and said nothing. Guozi face disagreed, and continued, "King Liang has always protected his shortcomings, and Wei Qian, who really cheated, has already been released on bail, but he is just grounded in the Wei Mansion, Pei Gongzi thinks about how he would have such treatment if it wasn't for King Liang's wife and uncle." Poor Pei Gongzi is also a matchmaker for King Liang, and he also has the name of a betrayer, and now he is in prison, but King Liang turns a blind eye, it's just a sentence, it's really chilling, isn't it?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" Pei Xuan's heartbeat gradually accelerated, these three sentences did not leave King Liang, and suddenly a thought came to his mind, "You are the person of King Shu." ”

"Haha...... Pei Gongzi has good eyesight. ”

Guozi's face smiled happily, and when he saw Pei Xuan's face sank, he said: "My master likes your talent, and this prison disaster is really wronged, so I let you come over." ”

This kind of nonsense is that Pei Xuan will not believe it no matter how naïve he is, but he said lightly: "There are many talented people in the world like carp crossing the river, Pei Xuan is a scholar, I don't know how to get into the eyes of the King of Shu, if it is because of the Huaizhou incident, I can't wait for me to die." ”

"Huh...... Pei Gongzi's words are wrong, His Royal Highness the King of Shu is not an unreasonable person, you and I are our masters, and there is no grudge. Because Pei Gongzi is loyal to King Liang, it is not good to snatch love with a knife, but now that he looks at it coldly, King Liang has no intention of making a move, so he sent me to visit Pei Gongzi, can you choose a good tree to live on?"

Change the course and change the tone, but Liangmu is so easy to live in?

"What does the King of Shu want me to do?"

Guozi slapped his hands and shouted, "Pei Gongzi is refreshing, let's talk about it next." In the case of Huaizhou, His Royal Highness the King of Shu worked hard in vain, but the King of Liang was safe and sound, and even more prosperous, if he was innocent, it was just the same thing, he was greedy for money, and even because there was no suppression of the officials of the King of Shu, it became even more intensified, and the name was not good, and the King of Shu was unhappy or secondary, but he was worried about this Great Xia Dynasty. Prince Rui is about to lead his troops to the north, but the treasury is still empty. Pei Gongzi is Gao Yi, and he must be able to understand that even if the King of Shu is selfish, it is also a matter of benefiting the country and the people. ”

Pei Xuan is no longer an ignorant young man, he looked stunned, and admired this person's skillful tongue, but no amount of words could hide the strong ambition behind the King of Shu.

"Pei Gongzi knows that Master Lin left an account book before he died, and the pen and pen are all evidence, if Pei Gongzi can get it......"

Pei Xuan's hand under the table gradually clenched, and said softly, "I don't know where it is." ”

"Pei Gongzi said with a smile, that day when I saw Gongzi enter the Rui Wang's Mansion for a short time, I guess the relationship with Lin Xi's senior brother is still there......"

Before the national character face was finished, Pei Xuan suddenly stood up and said sharply: "Don't pull Xi'er in, he doesn't know anything!"

This dim place suddenly echoed with that categorical warning, Guozi's face was slightly stunned, then squinted, gradually retracted his smile, looked at Pei Xuan's heroic and righteous appearance and sneered, and asked rhetorically: "If you don't know, how can you not find clues in the Lin Mansion? If you don't know, how can Lin Gongzi get that notebook? It's still in the travelogue folder? If you don't know, Qin Cha will go to Liangzhou as soon as he leaves? If you don't know, how can Pei Gongzi feel guilty in the face of Lin Gongzi's criticism?"

Pei Xuan opened his mouth, unable to refute, he thought of Lin Xi's words when he knelt outside Lin Qing's study in the scorching sun, and the resolute look when he handed over his handwritten notes to himself, the conversation of King Rui's mansion...... His junior brother doesn't seem to know anything, but in fact he knows it clearly!

"This Lin Gongzi is not simple, we have searched through the Huaizhou Forest Mansion, and even the Yongning Hou Mansion has not found a shadow of the account book. ”

"So you came to me......" Pei Xuan's mouth was bitter.

"Yes, to each according to his needs. If Pei Gongzi can get the account book from Lin Gongzi and let the King of Shu present it to the emperor, it will be a great help. I will help you get out of this prison, and the identity of the Jinshi will be retained as before, if you regret not wanting to be loyal to the King of Shu in the future, you can also participate in the temple examination in a dignified and positive manner, and be a neutral official in the future, how about it? ”

Pei Xuan's face turned pale, and it was even more pale in this dim candlelight.

"How do you know...... The ledger must be in Xi'er's hands...... He was not in good health, and the teacher never let him worry too much...... How could you give him this hot thing...... Instead of ......"

After all, the words are stuck in the mouth, who can believe it, who can't believe it, no matter how the student can't be a son.

"It must be on Lin Xi's son, if he is not there, he also knows where it is. Guozi said categorically.

Although Pei Xuan said that he didn't believe it, he had confirmed it in his heart, and then he asked self-deprecatingly, "What if I don't want to?"

The national character face lifted the tea that Pei Xuan had not drunk, and smashed it to the ground with a "pop".

"Then I can't do it, so I have to ask Lin Gongzi to shut up, and don't open my mouth again for the rest of my life, and we can always find the account book. ”

The crisp sound seemed to explode in Pei Xuan's heart, and he looked at the debris on the ground in a daze, "You guys...... How dare he, he is the grandson of the Marquis of Yongning!"

Guozi smiled contemptuously, "Hehe, what is the Marquis of Yongning, it's just a declining Hou Ye, for the sake of a young master under the fence, can you still make trouble with our prince?" Originally, I was still afraid of Prince Rui, but this Royal Highness is about to go north, even if I have the heart to protect it, I am afraid that it will be beyond my reach. ”

That's all settled!

Pei Xuan's palms broke out in cold sweat.

And in Lanyue Xuan

Since Zhao Jingyi said that there was something important to discuss with Lin Xi, Chongjintang naturally didn't put more beaks, and Mrs. Tai could think of it naturally because this prince was about to leave Beijing, and there was always something to explain about Zhao Yuanrong, so she ordered the small kitchen to send some food over to let the two of them enjoy themselves.

But she never thought that it was Mrs. Intai's question that would not stop her, and her well-behaved grandson was being eaten and taken down by Lord Rui little by little.

Then a wind and waves came, pushing Lin Xi directly into Zhao Jingyi's arms, and in the face of the coming wave, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up.

And Zhao Jingyi, who stayed for lunch, was also thinking about this problem.

He can not care about gossip, but about Lin Xi, he can't always make people feel wronged.

Looking up at the young man who was eating at ease, Zhao Jingyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if he was a man, he could get married, and if he married directly, there would be nothing to do.

But no matter how much you think about it, it's still too early, although she slowly grabbed Lin Xi, but Zhao Jingyi knew that the relationship between the two was not stable, and if it was a little more difficult, it would be difficult for Lin Xi to retreat immediately.

Of course this is not allowed, but the damn thing is that he is going to the north!

When Zhao Jingyi thought of this, he felt very sorry for not catching Samul that day, and he felt helpless against a group of cowards in the DPRK and China!

"Xi'er. ”

Hearing a call, Lin Xi put down his chopsticks and bowl, took a sip of soup, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

That innocent expression made Zhao Jingyi scratch his ears and cheeks in his heart, but he said sternly: "The matter of the account book needs to be solved as soon as possible, this kind of thing cannot be prevented, since there are already people in the Hou Mansion who are eyeing you, then the Hou Mansion is no longer safe, have you ever considered moving out...... Come to the palace?"

Zhao Jingyi was reasonable, but Lin Xi couldn't help blushing and said, "I'll think about it, but I believe that my grandmother and two uncles won't use such unscrupulous means to spy on me." Since I came, there is no reason to move out immediately, otherwise how can my uncle raise his head and behave, and even the poor and lonely nephew will not be allowed? Moreover, the opening of the Bai Family School is imminent, and I am afraid that I will not live in the Hou Mansion for many days. The prince doesn't have to worry, he still has the ability to protect himself. ”

It seems that it is important to send his son over and pick it up.

"Well, I will leave a team of secret guards for you, if there is an urgent matter for them to do, remember, you can't leave the house without the only son. Now is the time to be nervous, the account book, I will think about how to deal with it, and don't act rashly until then, but remember. ”

"Don't worry, I understand. ”

Speaking of this, the four eyes looked at each other, and after a long time, Zhao Jingyi whispered: "Can you call my words? Don't call the prince anymore?"

Hearing this, Lin Xi blinked with a red face, and Zhao Jingyi looked at him directly, as if he was saying that he could make him feel at ease.

Lin Xi lowered his head slowly, and after a while he whispered, "I can't remember your words......"

The embarrassed voice became smaller and smaller, and Zhao Jingyi closed his eyes, "Be cautious, take it from the meaning of prudence and prudence." ”

"......" Lin Xi's eyes flickered.

Zhao Jingyi stared at it, making Lin Xi feel pressured.

After opening his mouth for a long time, he spit out the word "respect", and heard someone shouting at the door: "Young master, the concierge said that there is a scholar who calls himself Pei Xuan and asks to see him." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Jingyi's face suddenly darkened by half, and when he saw Lin Xi, who was "lucky not to say any more", the other half also darkened.
