"Grandfather, uncle, aunt!"

After Li Yi entered the house, he first greeted the three who were silent.

Inside the room, Li Jing sat upright, one hand on a half-person-high red lacquered wood table, the other hand on an armchair that was also lacquered mahogany, his back was straight as loose, his eyes were squinted, and he did not speak.

Next, Li Dejian was dressed in a robe, also sitting upright, holding Buddhist beads, his face was not shocked, as if he had an epiphany.

On the other side, Aunt Cui's face was sad, her eyes were red, tears overflowed from time to time, and the silk cloth in her hand was already soaked, but she was only sobbing and didn't dare to speak.

As for the remaining two, Li Yesi is better, after all, after going through the officialdom, he still has the strength to be calm, but the hand holding the handrail exposes the anxiety in his heart. And Li Yexu was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks on the side, and he was in a hurry.

Finally, there is Bingyu, who is standing aside, holding a teapot, ready to wait at any time.

Li Yi greeted the three of them, raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "Where's grandmother?" ”

Cui Shi sobbed, and when he saw Li Yi coming back, he was immediately overjoyed, stood up, gave Li Yi a seat, and said: "Mother is resting in the hall, she has gone to bed early, she has been getting worse and worse recently, so I didn't dare to let her know about it!" ”

Li Yi frowned when he heard this. "Grandmother's health is fine, right?"

"It's not a big deal, it's all old problems!" Li Jing suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were very complicated, angry, sad, and endlessly desperate. Looking at Li Yi, Li Jing sighed, stood up, walked to Li Yi's side, patted Li Yi on the shoulder, and said, "I'll go see your grandmother, I'll leave it to you here, just do your best!" ”

Obviously, Li Jing has no hope for his son, visiting the Red Whisk Girl is just an excuse for him, the main thing is that he is here, he can't say something, it is better to leave and wait for the result, he believes that in this regard, Li Yi is more capable than him.

Li Yi nodded and sent Li Jing out.

After Li Jing left, Li Yi returned to the house, stood directly in front of Li Dejian, and said straight to the point: "Uncle, we are all a family, and my nephew will not be polite to you, I think you also know that our family hopes that you can come back, and I also want to persuade you to come back; This persuasion is nothing more than a combination of soft and hard, and the little nephew is no exception! ”

Li Yi paused, and saw that Li Dejian had no reaction, so he continued: "Uncle, since you came back today, it means that you still have this family in your heart, then you still have to think more about this family, you just heard that your grandmother is old, and she can't be stimulated at all, your business, we have been hiding it for so long, once the stuffing is revealed, the consequences are really unimaginable, and no one knows if your grandmother's current physical condition can survive it."

Moreover, do you have to think about your grandfather, who is old, and during this time, because of your departure, your grandfather's gray hair has increased by 30%, and he is almost no longer able to see black hair. My aunt also washes her face with tears every day, and my two younger brothers don't think about tea and food all day long, I don't know how many things have been wronged, and even because of your business, the reputation accumulated by our Li family for decades has been shattered, during this time, the entire Chang'an City does not know how many people are gossiping behind their backs, saying that our Li family is gossiping, grandfather is so old, he must be heartbroken when he hears this, uncle, do you not care about these? ”

Li Dejian listened, but he still didn't open his eyes, but his hands were really trembling, obviously his heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface!

Seeing this, Li Yi took a deep breath, knowing that it was useless to know that it was useless, and put away the sour emotions in his heart, Li Yi turned around suddenly, walked on the main seat, and sat down with a golden sword.

"Uncle, since this is the case, then don't blame your nephew for not saving face for you! Heir! ”

Li Yesi stood up with a brush, and responded expressionlessly, and when he looked at Li Dejian, he was deeply disappointed.

"Heir, tomorrow you will notify the county orders of Chang'an and Wannian counties, ordering them to seal up all the monasteries in Chang'an City, take all the monks into custody, and not let anyone go!"

Li Yesi was stunned for a moment, and then resolutely responded, he had long been full of hatred for the temple, and now that he saw that Li Yi had given the order, he didn't care anymore!

However, Li Dejian was shocked, stood up suddenly, looked at Li Yi in shock, and said in a lost voice: "Nonsense, what reason do you have to seal the temple?" ”

Li Yi replied lightly.

"Collaborating with the enemy and treason, hiding filth and dirt!"

"Nonsense, this is just a matter of the Wuxian Temple, what does it have to do with other temples?"

"I don't care about this, it's a matter of treason, who dares to be careless, don't check, who knows if they are innocent?"

"This ......"

Li Dejian took a deep breath, helplessness appeared on his face, thought for a moment, and sighed: "Alas, you are not a person who does anything wrong, presumably the closure of the temple is only temporary, since it is related to treason, check it!" ”

Li Dejian accepted his fate because he thought that Li Yi was not an abuse of power, and if it was sealed in time, there would definitely be a day when the seal would be lifted, but he thought Li Yi was too simple.

"Hehe, grandfather, if you weren't there, I would really just have a routine check-up, you know, I'm lazy, I really don't want to cause trouble if I don't have to. But, because of you, I decided to investigate to the end, hehe, I want to see, this temple in Chang'an is really clean, according to the information I have, the temple in Chang'an, although there is no treason, most of them have done a lot of things to defraud the people, and they can't stand the investigation at all, once I have the evidence, uncle, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless! ”

"You ......"

Li Dejian pointed at Li Yi, his face full of anger.

"Yi'er, what are you going to do?"

"You know!"

Li Dejian shook his head.

"Impossible, the poor monk's heart to the Buddha will never waver, it's a big deal, I'll leave Chang'an!"

"Then I'll keep checking, I'll check wherever you go, hehe, uncle, if you don't want all the temples in the world to disappear, it's best not to do it!"

"Li Yi, do you still have my uncle in your eyes?"

"Li Dejian, do you still have our family in your eyes?"

The two of them stared at each other with red eyes, and neither of them would budge.

Seeing this, Cui Shi couldn't help but shed tears, and Bingyu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him.

Li Yexu had a fierce temperament, and he couldn't get used to Li Dejian's appearance, so he brushed his sleeves and left.

Li Yesi sighed and sat down dejectedly, they all persuaded him, before Li Yi came back, they had already said everything they could say, but Li Dejian was unmoved, so he was a little disheartened now.

Li Dejian and Li Yi were in a stalemate for a long time, and in the end, it was Li Dejian who took the lead in defeat.

"Alas, Yi'er, why are you doing this?"

Li Yi's face was resolute, he held back the tears in his eyes, looked at Li Dejian, and said word by word: "Uncle, I won't let you become a monk no matter what, either let the temples in the whole world be destroyed because of you, or, you will return to the vulgar from now on, be a lay disciple, you can eat fast and chant Buddha in the house, we will never stop you, you choose one!" ”
