Li Jinzhong used the prison army as his own guard, and in this regard, several well-known imperial historians who were not afraid of death impeached him to the emperor and asked the emperor to punish Li Jinzhong for the crime of trespassing and bullying the king, but they were all forcibly suppressed by the emperor.

After a long time, and Li Jinzhong was honored by the emperor as "Shangfu" because of his meritorious service in Jinggong, gradually, no one in the civil and military ministers above the court pointed fingers and commented on this.

It was precisely at the moment when everything was calm that Li Jinzhong sensitively noticed that although the emperor was obedient to him on the surface and more respectful in etiquette, in fact he seemed to have strengthened his vigilance against him.

Three days ago, at the palace banquet when King Mu returned to Beijing, the emperor also personally promised him to gather a number of yamen people and horses to rectify the security of the capital as soon as possible, but in a blink of an eye, Wu Bi followed the emperor's order and assigned all the 200 prison guards who were his guards into the sequence of Yulinwei under his command, and then, most of them were naturally replaced.

On the first day, Lai Xing'er followed Lao Huang to the gate of the Jin State Mansion on duty, and was bumped into by Li Jinzhong, who left the mansion early in the morning to go to the court.

"Yo, boy. The old man mentioned you to the emperor yesterday, so why don't you ask the first secretary of Yanying Hall to guard the lives of hundreds of dead people. Therefore, I advised the emperor to transfer the people back to the city as soon as possible. I don't want to, I was transferred to the old man so quickly......"

Li Jinzhong was about to turn over his horse outside the gate of the mansion, and at a glance he saw that the sergeant standing next to the door was actually Lai Xing'er, and he couldn't help but make up a story to tell Lai Xing'er, but he was shocked and uneasy in his heart.

Lai Xing'er couldn't tell Li Jinzhong whether he was annoyed or hated: it was the ugly-looking old eunuch in front of him who was smiling at him and took him out of the stable courtyard with his own hands, and transferred him into the East Palace as an eyeliner for Empress Zhang, which directly led to his mother's short-sightedness in order to make him less concerned and threatened; is also the prime minister of the dynasty who claims to be his uncle, but he has repeatedly deceived himself, so that he has traveled thousands of miles to find his mother; Similarly, it was this ruthless eunuch who washed the Daming Palace in blood and forced the concubine's mother and daughter to death, when he jumped outside the Xingqing Gate and saved him from Nayu's flying knife, he not only did not save himself, but instead of saving him, he made clever words with suspicion, intending to assassinate himself.

At this time, when he listened to Li Jinzhong's insincere deception, he couldn't help laughing angrily, tried his best to restrain himself, and did not expose his lies on the spot.

"Your Majesty, the General. It was a great honor to be at the side of the general on an errand and to be at the side of the general. Lao Huang, who was standing on the other side of the door, saw his original boss and hurriedly stepped forward to clasp his fists and salute.

"Oh, you're in the Prison Army?" Li Jinzhong turned his head when he heard this, looked Lao Huang up and down, obviously couldn't remember who he was.

"Back to the general, Huang was originally on an errand under Captain Qin, and on the day of the Qingming Palace change this year, the general ordered Captain Qin to lead people to kill Zhang, and the small one was among them." So far, Lao Huang is still difficult to change, and everyone will mention his exploits, and today in front of Li Jinzhong, he will naturally not let go of the great opportunity to show his merits.

Sure enough, when Li Jinzhong heard him say this, his attention immediately shifted from Lai Xing'er to Lao Huang, and while nodding at him frequently, he said: "Okay, good, good, when the old man's business is finished tonight, invite the two of them to the house to talk about the past in detail. After that, he stared at Lao Huang with dead eyes, as if he wanted to keep this person's appearance firmly in mind, and then went to the direction of Daming Palace under the urging of his family.

Lai Xing'er heard that Lao Huang was deliberately clinging to Li Jinzhong, and suddenly felt disgusted with him in his heart, and wanted to ignore him, but he heard Lao Huang spit viciously at Li Jinzhong's distant back, and scolded: "Old immortal gelding, you still expect your lord to believe your nonsense, go dream!" ”

Lai Xing'er felt strange and asked: "Huang Tou'er, I remember a few months ago next to Yanying Palace, I heard you speak to General Li, and you called him very kindly, why do you seem to hate him today?" ”

Lao Huang was beaten by Jinping, and was coerced and lured by her, especially after learning that Jinping was the daughter of Jing Yuncong, the first general of the dynasty and the first palace person to be used by Jing Xuan, the head of the harem concubines, he suddenly admired her, so she prostrated and pasted her eyeliner in the "Wild Fox Fall" military camp. On the night that Lai Xing'er was arrested, he ran to the outside of Daming Palace early in the morning to ask for someone to report the news to Jinping, Jinping had affection for Lai Xing'er, and he had always looked at it, so he became much closer to Lai Xing'er.

"If General Wu hadn't kindly informed me of Captain Qin's final fate, I'm afraid that Lao Tzu would still think that this old gelding is a good person." Lao Huang said angrily, "Although Captain Qin was recommended by the old gelding dog for his meritorious work in eliminating the Zhang family, and was given a knighthood by the emperor, he died violently at home soon after, and it is very likely that he was killed by this old gelding......

Although Lai Xing'er didn't quite understand why Li Jinzhong wanted to kill the captain surnamed Qin, it could also be seen from Lao Huang's gritted teeth, obviously this incident gave Lao Huang great stimulation.

It turned out that Wu Bi was sent here on an errand because Lao Huang and himself both had grievances with Li Jinzhong. Lai Xing'er secretly speculated in his heart.

"Dare to ask the two military masters, is Master Li in the mansion today?"

An inquiring voice suddenly came from her ear, interrupting Lai Xing'er's thoughts. Only then did he discover that outside the gate of the Jin State Mansion, a red-robed official who was over fifty years old and had a good figure had come to him.

"Lord Li entered the palace early in the morning, please come back another day." Lao Huang has been fighting in the forbidden army for a long time, and he can see at a glance that this is a fourth-grade master from the robe he is wearing, so he has a little politeness in his words.

When the official heard this, he didn't feel surprised or disappointed at all, he took out a piece of Shu brocade from his arms, went to the steps in front of Lao Huang and Lai Xing'er, sat down, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to the two: "Then the official won't leave, just sit here and wait for Lord Li to return home, and you can also be a companion with the two military masters, chattering." ”

Lao Huang and Lai Xing'er had never seen such an official, and they were curious for a while, and Lai Xing'er asked first: "Don't hide it from your lordship, the two of us are the first to return to the gate of the Jin State Mansion today, and when we entered Deli Fang, we saw that there was also a sentry at the gate of the Fang, I don't know how the adults came to the gate of this mansion?" ”

Lao Huang was on the side, listening to Xing'er's question, he was like a melon egg who didn't know the world, for fear of attracting the official's shame, so he rushed to answer for the official self-righteously: "This still needs to be asked, and I don't look at what the identity of the adult is, he must have an official certificate on his body, how could those boys outside the gate dare to stop him?" Besides, if you come in a hurry early in the morning to see Master Li, you must have very important official business, and if you can't even enter the door, it will be too funny. Do you say?
