Chapter 45: Don't Get Too Close
As soon as Yue Jinyan's foot injury improved, he left the house in a hurry.
The assassination of a giant who holds more than half of the country's wealth is naturally not as light as the assassination of an ordinary son of a family.
Dugucheng heard the news of Yue Jinyan's injury from the depths of Zhou Yu, and he was also anxious, he has now been on the throne for more than half a year, violently usurping power, military spending has surged, and the treasury has been depleted day by day.
If you want to continue to maintain it, you must win over Yue Jinyan and get enough silver to support the new dynasty, so as not to eyeing other princes and trying to usurp the throne and seize power.
Yue Jinyan's injury was slightly lighter, and he was announced into the palace by Dugucheng to show his care and attention, and the emperor's grace was mighty.
Although Dugucheng is a ruthless and ruthless person, he will never hesitate to care for anyone who is beneficial to him to consolidate his position, and he is often as kind as a spring breeze.
Yue Jinyan entered the palace this time, and he also deeply understood.
As soon as he entered the emperor's palace, Dugucheng got up in person, welcomed him into the palace, and saw that he was inconvenient to walk, and even personally supported him.
"Who was Aiqing injured by! Do you have a clue? The two of them sat down separately, and Dugucheng looked angry and patted the mahogany carved dragon table in front of him.
Zhou Yushen was also among them, but he was silent, and the four of them besieged Yue Jinyan and Huo Lingxi, but they only suffered some skin injuries, which was a little strange.
But Dugucheng is suspicious by nature, and if he expresses this concern, he will be questioned by him for his bad intentions.
"Weichen expected that it should be the Liu family in the capital." Yue Jinyan was humble on his face, but he was disdainful of Dugucheng in his heart, he was able to ascend to the throne largely because of the woman named Zuo Ying.
Yue Jinyan once had a relationship with her, and that woman was indeed not comparable to ordinary women, but after Dugucheng became emperor, the Zuo family disappeared, and Zuo Ying, who was originally the original wife of Dugucheng, was nowhere to be found.
Yue Jinyan had buried spies around various princes, and it was said that as soon as Zuo Ying captured the capital, he was surrounded and suppressed by 3,000 elite soldiers led by this Dugu City, and the bones did not exist.
With such a vicious heart, he still doesn't let go of his wife, how can he be entrusted to Mingjun?
"The Liu family?" Dugucheng has heard that the Liu family has coveted Yue Jinyan's wealth for a long time, and he is always looking for a way to completely destroy this Yue Jinyan and seek benefits from it.
"The minister has always been reluctant to form a grudge with others, if you talk about it, this Liu family is the only possible murderer." Yue Jinyan's face did not change, and he looked very sincere.
The Liu family naturally would not do such a thing, Yue Jinyan has always been cautious, otherwise he would not have managed this huge family property more and more after the death of his parents.
It's just that recently, there are always some people in the Liu family who are ready to move, and they don't know what kind of ghost ideas they are playing, and they are even killing several shops under Yue Jinyan.
However, if he took action to get rid of them, it would be too ostentatious, and there would be more incidents, and Yue Jinyan would never venture at will.
It is a good choice to win over the hands of Dugucheng, Dugucheng was originally ascended to the throne by force, and now the form is turbulent, so it is understandable to deal with some restless wealthy families.
Dugucheng changed his mind, if the Liu family was destroyed, although it was not as good as Yue Jinyan, there was always some family background, and it was a good deal to kill two birds with one stone.
Immediately, a holy decree was made.
It is alleged that Liu Jiaping forcibly looted the people's fat and ointment, expropriated and extorted violently, and now he is trying to buy murder and hurt people, and all the men are sent to the frontier, and the female dependents are accepted as official prostitutes, and all the family property is confiscated.
For a while, the huge Liu family disappeared without a trace overnight.
Huo Lingxi lives in the backyard of the Huo family, but he can also listen to the porters and talk about some major events in the capital.
I can't help but think that Japan is a mortal situation, if it weren't for Yue Jinyan suddenly didn't know what spell he used to drive away all the black-clothed people, and now he wouldn't have the life to be leisurely here.
Could it be that the black-clothed people that day were all placed in advance by Yue Jinyan?
Huo Lingxi is so smart and clever, just her vision is not comparable to ordinary women.
But she didn't know what it was like, she was holding to save Yue Jinyan's life, so as to protect herself from leaving a way back when she was in danger in the future.
However, if all this was painstakingly arranged by him, Huo Lingxi couldn't help but smile bitterly, his good intentions were probably just a joke in Yue Jinyan's eyes.
She didn't know that Yue Jinyan had been working since he came back from the palace, and he ordered someone to find the best secret medicine in order to heal the scars on her hands.
Yue Jinyan was full of joy, although his face was still calm and kind, he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
He missed her so much.
Since that day, her delicate but touching face has made him feel very missed.
Finding something that would cure her, it was as if he had a reason to visit.
Forsythia was very surprised, when did Yue Jinyan care so much about his own miss, in her impression, his friendship with his own young lady was just Er'er, why did he come to his own young lady when he returned to the house, he didn't even see the old lady.
Huo Lingxi heard this, but she didn't have any extra emotions, she had already made up her mind, and between Yue Jinyan, whether he was using it or having something else, she would not respond.
After all, the bitter lesson of her previous life told her that if she casually trusts a man, she may not end up well.
What's more, Huo Lingxi's face was dark and uncertain, and he was able to find an assassin to assassinate him and get rid of the enemy, such scheming methods were not much better than Dugu City.
Huo Lingxi couldn't help but have some doubts, it was difficult to say whether such a man with a deep city government could be grateful for her sacrifice of his life that day.
Yue Jinyan took the secret medicine and waited anxiously, but he didn't know that Huo Lingxi was already unable to trust him.
"Brother Jinyan, Lingxi was unwell yesterday, and it was too late, forgive me for my neglect." Huo Lingxi is still the same as before, cold and polite.
But Yue Jinyan, who was sitting on her side, always felt that something was wrong with her, as if she was even more alienated.
This made him feel some unspeakable discomfort.
"Sister Lingxi's body is important, this box of medicine was specially obtained by me from the witch doctor over there, and it will have a miraculous effect on the scars on your arm."
Yue Jinyan presented the box with both hands, and there was a rare wavering in his eyes.
"Lingxi, thank you Brother Jinyan for your kindness." Huo Lingxi still lowered his eyes, but he just took it respectfully, and he didn't have much intention to talk.
In the past, although she was an indifferent person, she would never be so rejecting people thousands of miles away, Yue Jinyan was puzzled in her heart.
Could it be that she already knows the inside story of that day?
Yue Jinyan's heart froze, and the secret way was not good.
