Chapter 245 [The Deceased]

Lin Nan stepped out of the hall like a wind, and when he saw Jieluo's pale little face, he was both surprised and pity, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Loel." Lin Nan opened his hand to hold her in his arms, not daring to touch the wound on her back.

"Your Majesty." Although Jieluo is still very weak, and she can't even lift the strength to speak, her tears have already flowed down, crying like a begonia with rain, which is distressing.

Lin Nan hugged her and asked softly, "The people who saved you are there, and I must reward them heavily." ”

Jieluo gently snuggled into his arms and whispered, "They're outside." ”

Lin Nan hurriedly instructed the guards: "Invite the two people outside in, quickly!" ”

When the two guards heard the word of invitation, they didn't dare to slack off, and slowly agreed to go out and invite the two middle-aged couples respectfully in.

As soon as the two saw the person in the dragon robe, they knew that it was the emperor, and hurriedly bowed: "The grass people and their wives see the emperor." ”

"Get up quickly, you saved my beloved concubine, I should thank you." Lin Nan smiled and helped the two of them up, and the two couples glanced at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Come, and reward them with a thousand taels of silver." Lin Nanchong commanded the guards.

"Thousand ...... Qianliang ...... "The two couples are just ordinary fishermen, and they have never even seen fifty taels of silver, let alone a thousand taels, and they are really surprised and happy at this moment, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing again and again to thank them."

"All right, go and get the money." Lin Nan was in such a good mood for the first time since he entered the city, and he took Jieluo all the way back to the palace and asked some questions, only then did he probably understand.

It turned out that Jieluo fell into the river with an arrow that day, and was rescued by the fishermen when she drifted downstream, but she was too seriously injured to survive. But it just so happened that a strange man came to buy fish, ran into a knot, and rescued her after asking about the situation. and prescribed her negative medicine, which brought her back to life. But when Jieluo woke up again, the strange man was nowhere to be found, and no one knew who the strange man was, only that his surname was Sun, and he often collected medicine in this generation. He also often helps the poor to see a doctor, and is known as Sun Jishi.

"The surname is Sun, could it be the miracle doctor who saved me in the first place?" Lin Nan thought about it for a while, but he wasn't sure, but the most important thing was that Jieluo didn't have trouble, and it didn't matter who the weird person was.

Jieluo was still very weak, Lin Nan personally sent her to the room to sleep, and told her for a while. Then he kissed her on the forehead and returned to the temple.

The ministers were still waiting in the hall, and when they saw Lin Nan coming back with a red face, they knew that he was in a good mood and hurriedly came up to congratulate him. Lin Nan Ha Lu Ha smiled, sat down at the top, and said to the ministers: "The affairs of the rebels will be handled by Zhao Saqing." However, I thought that it should be divided into more than a dozen parts and moved to various places. And the inventory fee is given, so as to be safe. As for the traces of Wang Shijun and his cadres, they have to step up their questioning of Gao Shilian and investigate everywhere. ”

"Your Majesty." Sa Wuji took the lead, and the ministers bowed down in turn.

Lin Nan looked at Wei Zheng again and said, "I don't know who I employ, and I don't listen to my advice." is really guilty, Wei Qing can take me to issue a guilty edict to correct the public and announce it to the world. ”

"Huh?" The officials were shocked, because the edict of the guilty self was generally an extraordinary act in an extraordinary period, except for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in history. Until now, no emperor has ever given himself an edict of guilt.

"Your Majesty, this matter of self-inflicted edict is still open to discussion." Wei Zheng himself also felt that this was too much for Lin Nan, and all the officials also had the same meaning, and no one agreed with Lin Nan's edict.

Lin Nan smiled, stepped forward and patted Wei Zheng's shoulder and said: "I often say: The Son of Heaven has broken the law and is guilty of the same crime as the people, and now I am defying the law, if I don't deal with it, I am afraid it will chill the hearts of the people of the world." ”

"Your Majesty!" Wei Zheng was moved to tears, and bowed deeply, and the hundred officials also shouted long live for Lin Nan's open-mindedness.

"Okay, okay, now that things are clear, let's all go down." Lin Nan smiled, picked up the teacup and took two sips.

"Yes." Baiguan retreated, and Wei Zheng pulled Aguo, but Aguo did not go out with him, but still stayed there.

Lin Nan put down the teacup, raised his eyes and found that she hadn't left, and asked with a little surprise, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Ah Guo bit his lip, pulled his long sideburns with his left hand and slowly knelt down, and said in a low voice: "Ah Guo doesn't want to go back to the east to win, he wants to be a female official here in the emperor, and he is willing to ask His Majesty to take him in." ”

"Female officer? Don't you have any female officials in Dongying, why do you have to stay here? Lin Nan said and walked down the hall.

Ah Guo shook his head and sighed, his eyes full of helplessness.

"Dongying men treat us women as playthings, we are like things, we can be sent back and forth at will, and they will not say anything to us women, because in their hearts they think that we women are waste, useless, just tools for reproduction."

She said so much in one breath, obviously very complaining, although Lin Nan had known Lu Daodongying's attitude towards women, but he didn't expect that this era would be much worse than later. Thinking of this, there was a burst of pity, it stands to reason that there are female officials in the palace of the Sui Dynasty, but those are all old mothers, Lin Nan really can't bear to let her do it. After thinking about it, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled and said, "There is a female official who is most suitable for you." ”

"What?" Ah Guo raised his eyebrows and asked in a lost voice.

"As my concubine, she should also be considered a female official, right?" Lin Nan smiled and pinched her pretty face.

Ah Guo immediately blushed and lowered her head in shame, although she could accept this idea, but when Lin Nanzhi said it, she always felt a little light.

Lin Nan was actually just joking, and when he saw that she didn't answer, he didn't ask her anymore, and walked out of the hall with a smile.

The two Mulan sisters went out to go shopping, Jieluo was still very weak and resting, and all the ministers went back, and there was really no one else in the entire palace except for the guards, internal supervisors and palace maids.

Lin Nan was a little bored, walking around casually, this temporary requisitioned palace was not too big, and Lin Nan inadvertently slipped into the back garden. Coincidentally, I saw a palace maid drawing water with a wheel, and Lin Nan vaguely noticed that the palace maid's face was a little familiar, so he walked over curiously.

"Ahh The palace maid's eyes were misty, and when she saw Lin Nan coming over, she let go of her hands in fright, and turned around eagerly until the rope rolled to the end.

"The Emperor...... The emperor ...... "The palace maid looked very frightened, and knelt on the ground and did not dare to look up at him. His body trembled.

Lin Nan was a little strange, normally she wouldn't be afraid of being like this, unless she made a mistake. couldn't think clearly, Lin Nan was even more curious, and walked over and ordered, "You stand up and take a look." ”

"Yes." The palace maid stood up tremblingly and raised her head very reluctantly.

It was a stunningly beautiful face. is also a very familiar face, although after many years, Lin Nan still recognized her at a glance, she is the concubine Yun Zhaoxun of the former abolished Yan King Yang Zhao!

"Why are you here?" Lin Nan asked in surprise.

Yun Zhaoxun was discouraged, in her heart, Lin Nan was still the one who brutally raped her back then, or the murderer who killed his brother and father, he would never let go of himself no matter what, but he was still ...... Come to think of this. It was both angry and bitter, tears fell down with a click, and the resentment of the young woman did not change because of the passage of time.

"Why don't you speak?" Lin Nan found out that she was aggrieved, and she was really a little reluctant.

"Kill me." Yun Zhaoxun didn't need to be respectful to her at this time, he simply glared at her, his eyes were full of ruthlessness.

Lin Nan didn't expect that after so many years, she still hated herself so much, remembered the events of the past, and sighed softly and said, "Why do I want to kill you." ”

"You...... You don't kill me? Yun Zhaoxun's eyes changed suddenly. I can't believe it.

"There are times when there are people and things that you can't control. I don't know how you became a palace maid, but it doesn't matter, if you don't want to do it, I can raise you and take it as compensation for you. Lin Nan said lightly, his eyes were sweeping over the wheel.

"Your Majesty!" Yun Zhaoxun said and suddenly fell to his knees with a thud. He lost his voice and said: "Ask the emperor to let me out of the palace." ”

"Out of the palace? For what? Lin Nan turned his eyes to her and asked.

"The slave wants to see her child." Yun Zhaoxun was so obsessed with the ghost that she actually said this sentence, and only after she finished saying did she react, how could Lin Nan, the child of herself and the former Yan King, keep him in the world? But it's too late to quibble. A cold sweat broke out in a hurry, and he peeked at Lin Nan's face.

Lin Nan was really surprised when he heard her say that she was going to see the child, and at the same time, he knew that he was longing for him, so he left. So he asked softly, "Is it your and my brother's child?" ”

Yun Zhaoxun's face was red and white, his hands were tightly pinched at the placket of his clothes, he knew that if it was the child of King Yan, this child would definitely die without a place to be buried, and finally made up his mind, looked at Lin Nan and said in a trembling voice: "It's not King Yan's, it's the emperor." ”

Lin Nan smiled slightly, and did not look very surprised, he knew that Yun Zhaoxun wanted to keep the child. I didn't leave any heirs with so many concubines, and I only had one time with her, how could I keep my own children.

Yun Zhaoxun saw that Lin Nan was just laughing and didn't speak, so she began to beat the drum in her heart, she was afraid that Lin Nan would see through her lies, and she was also afraid that Lin Nan would be angry with the child.

"Since it's my child, then you can take me to see him." Lin Nan was still smiling very gently and calmly, but Yun Zhaoxun was frightened, he knew that Lin Nan's smile didn't know how many murderous intentions were hidden in Lu Dao, so he quickly knelt down in front of him and begged: "Please let the emperor let him go, he is only seven years old, he doesn't understand anything, and the concubine will take him away in the future, and he will never let the emperor see him again." ”

Lin Nan sighed and helped her and said, "You think too much, I just want to see this nephew, and I don't mean to kill him." The dead are gone, so why should the grievances of the past be involved in the next generation? ”

Yun Zhaoxun couldn't believe Lin Nan's words for a while, but Lin Nan pulled her and said, "I will never hurt this child, you can rest assured." ”

Yun Zhaoxun pinched his sweat, and then he relaxed a little, and Wanfu thanked: "The emperor's great grace, the concubine is unforgettable." ”

Lin Nan smiled, lifted her chin slightly, looked at the pair of big eyes that had experienced vicissitudes and said quietly: "After so many years, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful, no wonder King Yan was fascinated by you back then." ”

Yun Zhaoxun bowed his head gloomily, not knowing what to say, but Lin Nan didn't mention these anymore, and only asked, "What is the name of my nephew?" Yun Zhaoxun bowed his head and replied, "Yang Guo." "Yang Guo?" Lin Nan is really surprised by this name, although this Yang Guo is not another Yang Guo, but it always feels a little interesting to read.

Yun Zhaoxun didn't know why Lin Nan was so surprised by Yang Guo's name, and then Lin Nan asked again: "Where is the child now, Luoyang?" Yun Zhaoxun knew that it was difficult to deceive, so he could only reply: "Yes." ”

Lin Nan heard that there were more and more questions here, such as how Yun Zhaoxun became a palace maid. And when the child was born, and so on. And these things can't be said in a while, and it's not too early to see the time, so Lin Nan looked at her with a smile and said, "Let's go, go to my palace and talk about it." ”

Yun Zhaoxun's face turned red for a while, and she remembered what happened back then. It's a pity that the personnel have changed, and he could die without hesitation, but now his own life and that of his children are in his hands, and he doesn't even have the confidence to resist.

There was no choice but to follow him to the palace, Lin Nan retreated left and right, sat down with her, and asked all these questions, and Yun Zhaoxun answered them eloquently.

It turned out that after Lin Nan killed the abolished Yan King, his family members also had to be executed. But Yuwensu's younger brother Yuwenyue fell in love with her beauty and kept her as a concubine. Later, Yuwen Suman was killed, and there was a shortage of palace maids in the palace, so the eunuch and Yue filled their pockets with silver, and privately filled some of the female dependents of Yuwen's family into the palace, most of these people entered the Huanyi Courtyard, and they were basically isolated from the outside world, and no one wanted to talk to them.

Later she became pregnant. The manager of the Huanyi Courtyard has a good heart and helped her beg Sa Rongrong. Sa Rongrong took pity on Yun Zhaoxun, so she gave birth to the child and handed it over to a couple outside to raise, and he was also transferred out of the Huanyi Courtyard and became the palace maid in the inner court.

Although Yun Zhaoxun said this bitter past very calmly, Lin Nan knew how bitter she was in her heart. A princess Yan was reduced to the Huanyi Courtyard to wash the clothes of the eunuchs and palace maids, and ordinary people may have committed suicide long ago.

"Hey, life is impermanent, I was sorry for you back then." Lin Nan sighed, personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yun Zhaoxun.

Yun Zhaoxun didn't expect Lin Nan to change so much. didn't dare to pick it up for a while, and the two looked at each other, and they both had a strange look.

Although it has gone through so many years, Yun Zhaoxun's beauty has never changed, and it also exudes a sad pathos, which all of Lin Nan's concubines do not have.

"From now on, you will follow me." Lin Nanyi pulled her arm.

"The concubine doesn't dare." Yun Zhaoxun pulled out his arm and knelt down.

"You're still complaining, aren't you?" Lin Nan leaned up and helped her up with both hands.

Yun Zhaoxun lowered his head and said softly: "The concubine body is no different from the advocate family, if it weren't for the sake of the child, this life would have returned to Huangquan long ago, thanks to the emperor's refusal to abandon it, the concubine only wishes to end up in the barren mountains from now on, and there is no other thought." ”

"You ......" Lin Nan was about to speak, when he suddenly heard several screams outside.

"What's going on!" Lin Nan shouted outside, and at this time, a few people suddenly broke into the door, led by a masked woman with a sword in her hand. The rest of the men were also dressed in night clothes, and each with his sword.

"There are assassins!" At this time, there was a lot of noise outside, and countless guards rushed into the courtyard, and the woman said to a few people in surprise: "Take Yang Yu first!" ”

"Bold!" Lin Nan pushed Yun Zhaoxun to the side, and took out the Longquan sword from the side of the bed, the woman stepped forward with an arrow and the long sword went straight to Lin Nan's eyebrows, and the rest of the people also came up with their own blades to besiege Lin Nan.

"Save the emperor!" At this time, Gao Dehong, Hu Yanzan, and Qin Yi who heard the news also exchanged hands with the assassins outside, although there were many guards, but there were hundreds of assassins, and all of them were masters.

Lin Nan here barely resisted these people, but the sword was not his strong point, and the enemy pressed too tightly, and the card could not be activated for a while, so he gradually fell in the upper hand.

The woman saw the doorway and said in a low voice, "Catch it alive!" ”

"Yes!" A few people had to be ordered to force him up, although they didn't take Lin Nan's vital point, but they also had to break his two heel tendons, so that he couldn't make it stronger.

Lin Nan knew that he would definitely be captured alive if he went on like this, and he could see that this group of people was led by that woman, so he simply rushed to the woman as soon as he jumped over. Several of the assassins were taken aback when they didn't expect him to advance instead of retreating, and the woman was also a little flustered and took a few steps back.

Lin Nan wanted this opportunity, he quickly activated the Bruce Lee card, and used the most commonly used escape move in Jeet Kune Do, the ground rolling style. It was an ugly but useful move, and he rolled right in time to the door, taking advantage of the situation to cut down an assassin and rush out.

At this time, most of the assassins at the gate were dead, and the rest were fighting with the guards, so they had no time to take care of Lin Nan. Seeing that the assassination plan was about to fail, he suddenly heard a man in the room shouting: "Yang Yu, look at who this is!" ”

Lin Nan hurriedly looked up, only to see a Taoist priest holding a knot, and another man with a full beard and a broad waist with a sword across her neck, the situation was very critical. (To be continued.) )
