Li Yingjie said in a deep voice: "The minister's heart was like ashes at that time. In the vast sea of people, an orphan girl, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky. The old woman said that four years later, the child came back to see her. Hope was kindled in his heart, and he quickly found a local painter, so that the couple could recall the child's face and paint a portrait. Then he took the portrait and looked for a man named Futaki everywhere. ”

Li Yingjie said, took out a piece of rice paper from his arms, and sighed deeply: "Queen Mother, look at it, it doesn't look like it!" ”

Empress Dowager Li opened it with trembling hands and took a look, as if it was a lightning strike. The woman in this painting, this eyebrows and eyes...... It's clearly ......

In a trance, a tear fell on the paper and smudged.

Li Yingjie couldn't hide his sadness, and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother...... Was...... Same! The minister still remembers decades ago......"

In an instant, Empress Dowager Li raised her head violently, and her eyes were sharp.

Li Yingjie realized that he had missed his mouth, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "The Queen Mother atonements!" ”

Empress Dowager Li eased her expression, looked at Li Yingjie deeply with her eyes, and said, "Get up and speak, can you find someone?" ”

Li Yingjie was frightened by the Queen Mother's glance, and secretly regretted it in his heart, and swallowed his saliva heavily.

At first, the minister was aimless, only holding a portrait and asking people, like a sea probe. Later, Xu Gang analyzed that the couple entered Yao's house in the middle of the night, and if they were ordinary people, they would definitely alarm the neighbors, unless the man had some kung fu. The minister thought it made sense, so he asked people to inquire among the people in the rivers and lakes. Queen Mother, God bless, the emperor lives up to the painstaking people, and finally let the ministers inquire about some news! ”

When Empress Dowager Li heard the highlights, her heart went up and down, and she only felt that the six gods had no master.

Li Yingjie took a few sips of tea, turned his back and wiped his face, and said, "On the rivers and lakes." There is indeed a lone swordsman, known as Mr. Erki. ”

"Mr. Futaki?" Empress Dowager Li muttered.

"That's right. At the age of this weak crown, he is already very famous, but he has no fixed residence. Fortunately, Xu Gang is a capable person, and he has a lot of thin noodles on the rivers and lakes, so he finally found one or two people who had a relationship with Mr. Ermu, and inquired a few times. It was not easy to find the place where Mr. Futaki stayed. ”

"What happened?" Empress Dowager Li asked.

Li Yingjie let out a long sigh: "The Queen Mother will never think of it." The place where this person settled was in Shanyang City, four hundred miles away from the capital, a village with beautiful mountains and rivers. The ministers hurried to the whip. I found it overnight, and I didn't know ......."

Li Yingjie's eyes fell on the face of the Queen Mother, and he paused: "Queen Mother, the minister only found a piece of ashes!" ”

"A piece of ashes?"

Empress Dowager Li was disappointed and picked up the tea cup at hand. sighed: "Could it be...... Is it the wrong one? ”

After Li Yingjie smiled miserably, his expression was full of dead silence.

"The minister is not mistaken. Fourteen years ago, there lived a couple in this house, and the woman's maiden name was ......"

Empress Dowager Li was about to bring the teacup to her mouth, and listened to Li Yingjie's words halfway. He took his mouth and said helplessly: "What is your name?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's called - Yao Wan!"

There was a crunch. The teacup shattered!

……

Chunyang looked at the sun, and was faintly worried.

Hou Ye returned to Beijing. didn't even change a piece of clothes, and came to see the Queen Mother with a sloppy beard. It's been more than half an hour since I went in, and there has been no movement except for a loud noise, which is unprecedented in the past, and it really makes people feel a heart.

Xia Dong on the other side was also puzzled in his heart, raised his eyes and whispered: "Why is it so long this time?" What happened? ”

Chunyang shook his head truthfully, and said in a low voice: "Don't ask, you be careful, don't cause trouble, I can't save you!" ”

Xia Dong bowed slightly, coughed lightly, and said: "After a while, the emperor should go to court, I'm afraid that someone will come to invite the queen mother to drive ......."

Chunyang glared at him, turned his face away, and said in a deep voice: "There is no one waiting on the road yet!" ”

Xia Dong pursed his lips and smiled: "I still need you to confess, I have already sent someone to guard the road." ”

Chunyang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, the two looked at each other and smiled, then lowered their heads again and guarded silently.

After a long time, the door of the main hall creaked open, and an awe-inspiring momentum came to the face, and the two of them stood with solemn faces.

Empress Dowager Li stood elegantly with a solemn expression, a pair of phoenix eyes slightly flushed under the spring light, and a cold voice without a trace of heat came out faintly.

"Xia Dong!"

"The minions are here!"

"Yao family 18 ......"

Xia Dongjiu waited for the Queen Mother to be silent, and hurriedly looked up. Empress Dowager Li raised her hand lightly and made a gesture gently.

Xia Dong's heart jumped suddenly, a shudder and coldness rose under his feet, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said: "Don't worry, the queen mother understands." ”

"This matter needs to be done cleanly, if there is a hint of leakage, bring up and see you!" Empress Dowager Li's tone hardened.

Xia Dong hurriedly said, "Yes!" ”

"Wait......"

Xia Dong's back stiffened: "What else does the Queen Mother command?" ”

"Buried in mass graves, no one is allowed to collect the body!"

Chunyang looked at Xia Dong's departing figure out of the corner of his eyes, and a dense cold sweat oozed behind his back.

The Queen Mother rarely kills, even if she does, she will not even let go of her children. Chunyang didn't dare to think about it further. In the deep palace, if you want to save your life, you only need to remember one thing - the less you know, the longer you live.

"Master Hou!"

"The minister is here!" Although Li Yingjie looked tired, he was full of energy.

"This matter is annoying for the Hou Ye to run for the mourning family again, be sure to find the person, the mourning family wants to see the person, and the dead want to see the corpse."

Empress Dowager Li's sad but not sad voice came out faintly, but when she heard it in Chunyang's ears, she was frightened.

She has followed the Queen Mother for so many years, and only after the collapse of the mountain tomb has she heard the Queen Mother speak in such a tone.

It is a kind of indifference after the extreme sadness and pain, and it is also the self-suppression of patience and anger to the limit.

Chunyang's hands and feet were cold, thinking of the eighteen lively mouthfuls, and his heart was faintly uneasy.

……

On the wide official road, three or two black carriages moved forward unhurriedly.

Lin Bei leaned lazily in the carriage with his eyes half-closed.

The carriage was extremely spacious, with a thick fur blanket in the car, and a small pear blossom carved wooden table in the middle, two wine cups and a few plates of snacks.

Zhao Hui holds the pot in one hand. Pinch the cup in one hand and pour it yourself. The wine entered his throat and he let out a sigh of comfort.

"Xiaobei, how does it taste like the pear blossom white of the past twelve years?"

Lin Bei opened his eyes and glanced at him, and said lightly: "With your body, drink less." Wine and wealth. You're getting too much! ”

Zhao Hui poured another glass casually. The ruffian smiled and said: "People live for a lifetime, plants and trees for a lifetime, and they need to be happy in time." Don't touch women. Don't drink fine wine, don't make money, Lao Tzu is fucking alive, and there is a bird! ”

Lin Beizhi stood up. took the wine jug in King Jing's hand, and poured himself a glass with a face as deep as a lake. took a shallow sip and sighed: "The taste is good, the entrance is soft, and the aftertaste is mellow." Wine! ”

Zhao Hui threw an expression of knowing the goods to Lin Bei, and said with a smile: "After entering Beijing, call your two senior sisters out." Give Lao Tzu a good look, Lao Tzu will stay in Beijing for some time. Those civil and military officials, royal relatives and nobles are all boring people of his mother, and getting two little girls is just to relieve Lao Tzu's boredom! ”

"Bore?"

A touch of beauty appeared in Lin Bei's eyes, and he said with a smile: "My little senior sister can make you angry and come back to life." ”

"Wonderful!"

Zhao Hui clapped his hands and appreciated: "Lao Tzu likes people who can make me angry to death and come back to life, Lao Tzu has no choice but to take this bite!" ”

Lin Bei snorted lightly, clinked glasses with him, and said, "To be honest, what is your intention in buying these mines and hiring so many blacksmiths?" ”

Zhao Hui laughed and laughed heartily: "Xiaobei, after holding back for so many days, you still asked, pretending to be as light as a breeze on your face." Guess what? ”

"Why should I ask?"

Lin Bei pinched the empty wine glass and sneered: "Rebellion? You don't have the guts yet. ”

"That sounds interesting."

Zhao Hui's smile became deeper and deeper. This child has always been cold-hearted and warm-hearted, never talking about everything, never asking more, but paying attention to everything everywhere.

Then he quipped: "I've asked all the questions, and I said why do you need to ask more, Xiaobei, which one are you singing!" ”

Lin Bei smiled slightly: "I'm afraid that you will drink too much, your brain will be confused, and you will do stupid things." ”

Zhao Hui's pupils narrowed slightly, his eyes flashed lightly, and he said with a smile: "Lao Tzu got a message two months ago, do you want to hear it!" ”

An inexplicable sentence made Lin Bei have a feeling of incomprehension for the first time to King Jing, and he lowered his eyes and said, "If you are willing to speak, I am willing to listen!" ”

The corners of Zhao Hui's mouth were slightly raised, and he said meaningfully: "Lao Tzu heard that in the territory of Wei, the price of iron is soaring, and he bought a few mines to see if he can make some big money." ”

Lin Bei's heart sank, and he looked at Zhao Hui with an inquiring gaze.

"Xiaobei, don't look at Lao Tzu with this kind of eyes, there is no one behind Lao Tzu, if you want to have it, who the hell is willing to shrink in that cold place...... Compare your heart to your heart! ”

The sentence "comparing hearts to hearts" that dragged the tone made Lin Bei stunned for a moment.

Zhao Hui didn't seem to notice it, and laughed at himself: "What's more, the general trend of the world, if you join for a long time, you will be divided, and if you divide for a long time, who the hell can say it accurately?" Lao Tzu heard that Wen Ruibo's kid is by no means a good stubble. Li Yan, the old lady of the ruined family, only stared at the one acre and three points of land in front of her. Lao Tzu is also a member of the Zhao family, so I can't watch my Zhao family's country fall into the hands of others! ”

Zhao Hui patted Lin Bei's body with his big hand, and said with a smile: "If you kid is willing to enter my vein, Lao Tzu will create that old lady's rebellion for you, what?" ”

The earth-shattering words, Zhao Hui said casually, like a joke, the truth and falsehood are unclear.

Lin Beijian frowned deeply and did not say a word.

Zhao Hui raised his chin, which only had skin and no flesh, and said with a smile: "How about it, Lao Tzu has been chasing behind your kid's ass for ten years, you can think about it again!" ”

When the words fell, a light whistle was heard, and the horse raised his head high and let out a neigh, which shook the body slightly, and the fine pear blossoms fell to the ground in white, and the aroma of wine overflowed.

Zhao Hui was furious and was about to scold, when the curtain was suddenly lifted, and Qi Hui's murderous head came in.

"Childe, news from Beijing, the southern shopkeeper has been imprisoned; Miss Linsey - Whereabouts unknown. ”

Lin Bei suddenly changed color.
