Chapter 300: Exoneration

The door opened, You Yan poked her head out, and when she saw that it was Luo Yi, she quickly dragged it in, and then closed the door. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Why are you only here now, it's been two days." You Yan complained.

Luo Yi smiled, sat down and said, "Xiaoyan, I'm sorry, I have something at home in the past two days, so I delayed it." ā€

You Yan thought about it, Luo Yi said a few days ago that Luo Yi's eldest lady was about to give birth, and now that she thinks about it, this should be the case.

You Yan was a little disappointed, but still said, "Congratulations, is it a boy or a girl?" ā€

"Boy, I'll name him Luo Can."

You Yan said: "What a nice name." ā€

After all, it's not his own, and it's Luo Yi's wife, You Yan, who wants to marry Luo Yi, is not very comfortable in his heart, but he didn't show it, everything was pressed in his heart.

Luo Yi also knew You Yan's thoughts, but Wang Yan had just given birth to Luo Can, so it was a little inappropriate to say this at this time.

"Xiaoyan, don't worry, we will have a good result..."

"Seriously?"

"Uh-huh."

Luo Yi nodded seriously.

Thinking of Li Shimin's holy decree, Luo Yi felt a little uneasy, and he didn't know how to tell You Yan, he tried for a long time, but he still didn't say it.

"Xiaoyan, you can stay here for the time being, our business, let's talk about it later."

You Yan responded: "Okay." ā€

...........

Early the next morning, Luo Yi received a message from the palace and was summoned by Li Shimin.

It was the little eunuch in the palace who sent the message, Luo Yi didn't dare to slack off, and after a simple tidying up, he set off to follow to the palace.

In the imperial study, Li Shimin waited anxiously.

Originally, when Luo Yi returned to Chang'an, he was going to summon him, but considering that Luo Can had just been born, it was not appropriate to alarm Luo Yi, so he suppressed it first and did not summon it until this time.

"See the Emperor."

"Luo Yi, you're finally here, give me a seat."

Li Shimin smiled, and after giving the seat, he said: "This time you went to Huainan, although you did not completely solve the matter of the salt merchants, but you obtained 500,000 taels of silver, which can be regarded as solving the urgent needs of the imperial court, and you have contributed a lot." ā€

Luo Yi sat down and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to ask for, and I hope that the emperor will approve it." ā€

"What?"

Li Shimin smiled: "No matter what happens, I will answer you." ā€

Luo Yi took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the imperial silver was intercepted by Heifeng Village that day, there is really another hidden secret, they don't know that the robbery is the imperial silver, but they are just confused for a while, and after being dissuaded by the ministers, they have changed their ways, took the initiative to send the silver two out, and also apologized to the ministers." Your Majesty, for the sake of their ignorance, can you bypass their lives? ā€

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I have already issued an order to level the Black Wind Mountain, and now I am afraid that I have already succeeded in it." ā€

"I am the emperor, and the king has no jokes, even if he has given the order, how can he return; Moreover, even if they don't covet the imperial silver, as bandits, they are also a disaster, so eradicating them is also a good thing to protect the territory and the people. ā€

Luo Yi retorted: "But the emperor, as far as the ministers know, they are not causing trouble, just a group of poor people, farming the land by themselves, at most when they are not used to being rich and unkind, or corrupt officials, they will teach a lesson, and they will never accumulate the common people." ā€

These words, of course, are Luo Yi's nonsense, although Heifeng Village is not a big traitor, but it has also done a lot of bad things, but if you want to save Heifeng Village, you must say this.

In fact, Luo Yi also knew that if he wanted Li Shimin to change his mind, he was afraid that it would be a little difficult, so he took 10,000 steps back and said, even if he changed his attention, Niu Yanjin and Zhao Wenxian were afraid that they would succeed, and it would be too late in time.

But Luo Yi still wanted to give it a try, perhaps, You Sandao and Zheng Wu could hold up to Li Shimin's second grace.

At this time, Li Shimin was very puzzled, frowned, and said, "Luo Yi, why are you so interested in this gang of bandits?" What is your relationship? ā€

Luo Yi said: "Don't dare to deceive the emperor, You Sandao, the big boss of Heifeng Village, has a life-saving grace with me, and You Yan, the second master, is the concubine of the minister, so..." ā€

"Wait, concubine?"

Li Shimin asked: "With my understanding of you, you only have one wife and one concubine, and the main wife is the queen Yan of Wang Buchao, who just gave birth to Luo Can, and has a concubine... I don't remember it very clearly, but it's not like a thief, how could Mrs. Luo agree? ā€

"The emperor is really omnipresent and omniscient, but this You Yan of Black Wind Mountain is a minister who has just been strong, and he is grateful for You Sandao's life-saving grace, so he wants to be accepted as a concubine."

"That is, you haven't taken a concubine yet?"

Luo Yi raised his head and said calmly: "Your Majesty, it is being handled." ā€

In this way, Luo Yi is iron-hearted.

Li Shimin thought about it again and again, and hesitated, if the crime of Heifeng Mountain is pardoned, then what rules will there be in the future, and the holy decree will not be empty talk, but if the crime of Heifeng Mountain is not pardoned, how can Luo Yi explain this, after all, Luo Yi has just made a meritorious service.

"This matter... We need to think about it in the long run.... ā€

Luo Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there won't be much time, the holy decree has already been delivered, I'm afraid now..." ā€

Li Shimin thought about it, yes, even if he promised Luo Yi now, he couldn't save the Black Wind Mountain Cottage, instead of chilling Luo Yi's heart, it was better to give Luo Yi a grace.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin nodded with a smile and said, "Well, then let's play it accurately." ā€

"I immediately drafted a holy decree, and you sent someone to Black Wind Mountain to deliver the order, but... Whether it can be saved or not depends on the will of God. ā€

Luo Yi was overjoyed, got up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ā€

Although it can't save You Sandao and Zheng Wu, it is worth it to let the You family clear their charges, so that You Yan can stand up and be a man in the future; However, Luo Yi still held on to a glimmer of hope, and after leaving the palace with the holy decree, he immediately sent Zhao Wenyong out and went to Heifeng Mountain to deliver the decree.

"I hope I can catch up."

With a sigh, Luo Yi returned to the Guogong Mansion.

That night, Luo Yi fell asleep in Wang Yan's house, holding Wang Yan in one hand and Luo Can in the other.

"Yan'er, is my father still in Xiliang?"

Wang Yan asked in surprise: "Husband, do you mean my father?" ā€

"Hehe... How confused are you, and my father too. Is he still in Xiliang? ā€

Wang Yan nodded and said: "Well, I also received a letter from home last month, he is in good health, and he said that he will come to Chang'an in a while, and I have been waiting." ā€

Luo Yi smiled: "He must be missing his grandson, I expected it." ā€

Although he was indifferent on his face, Luo Yi was very worried in his heart, and he was also worried about You Yan. The reason why he asked Wang Buchao about it was to test it, but he didn't expect Wang Buchao to really come to Chang'an, so it seems that it is a little difficult to give You Yan a real name.

For You Yan, Luo Yi felt a little guilty; The matter of intercepting the emperor's silver, on the surface, was the fault of Heifeng Village, but among them, Luo Yi persuaded You Yan to make Black Wind Mountain suffer this catastrophe, in other words, it was Luo Yi who harmed the You family. At the beginning, I swore a promise not to pursue the interception of silver, but now it seems...

"Husband, what are you thinking?"

Luo Yi came back to his senses and smiled: "I didn't think about anything." ā€

"Yan'er, if I want to take another concubine, will you agree?"

A tentative sentence made Wang Yan stand up: "Husband, are you going to take a concubine again?" ā€

"I'm just saying it casually, you don't have to be nervous."

Wang Yan sighed, lay down and said, "If I marry another room, I will be nothing, but Jia Yu... Alas, I'm just afraid she's going to be unbalanced, and it stands to reason that she came in before me, but now.... Husband, I think you should go and meet her and appease her. ā€

Wang Yan's tolerance made Luo Yi a little surprised, and vaguely, he seemed to understand something.

She is already a big lady, and she has given birth to a boy, is it necessary to fight with anyone? Speaking of status, her father is Wang Buchao, a fierce general in Xiliang, and Jia Yu is the daughter of a small general, which cannot be compared at all.

Luo Yi said: "Jia Yuna, I will tell her, as long as you agree." ā€

Wang Yan sat up again and exclaimed, "So, does the husband really want to take a concubine?" ā€

"What? You just said that it was okay, and you are going to regret it again? ā€

"No... No.... ā€

Luo Yi hesitated and chuckled: "Forget it, I won't hide it from you." ā€

"Yan'er, when I went to Huainan this time, I actually met a woman, and I think I should take her as a concubine."

Immediately afterwards, Luo Yi told Wang Yan the story of Heifeng Mountain, especially You Yan's insistence on leaving the cottage in order to be with him, and persuading the cottage to return the silver taels.

Luo Yi just wants to show one thing, You Yan is infatuated with him, and has paid a painful price, maybe he will be lonely in the future, and he will not even have a relative.

Luo Yi believes that as long as Wang Yan is kind-hearted, he will not fight with this kind of person.

Sure enough, as soon as Luo Yi finished speaking, Wang Yan's heart softened and said: "If my husband said so, then what happened to this woman is too sad..." Since he likes her husband so much, and she is so pitiful, then her husband will marry her, as for Jia Yuna, I will tell her, Jia Yu's sister has always been kind, and she will not have any opinions. ā€
