The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and Jinyiwei argued, but instead put Li Xin aside, and both sides had to take people away and not give in to each other. Zhang Liang, the pacification envoy, relied on the fact that there were many brocade guards in the courtyard, and they all started with a whistle. The people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were armoured and inconvenient, and they were immediately at a disadvantage when they were in hand-to-hand combat, and they were almost powerless to fight back by a few hand-to-hand brocade guards.

Outside, the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division heard a fight in the courtyard, and wanted to rush in but were blocked by the Jinyi guards, and wanted to jump into the courtyard on the wall, but found that there was almost no open space inside and it was extremely difficult to settle.

If Li Xin would never miss this kind of excitement in normal times, but the current situation is that his eyebrows are burning, his brother Lu Jiu's life and death are uncertain, and he himself is difficult to protect, he would have taken up the post of chief soldier of the three guards in three days, who would have thought that he would encounter this unfortunate thing again. No, not bad luck! It is a person with a heart who deliberately targets him. If you walk away and sit on the grave crime of plotting a rebellion, you may be in the hands of those behind the scenes.

If this matter is over, there is only one person who can help him, and that is Zhu Youzhen, the son of the Great Tomorrow. The key is not to cite evidence that he did not rebel, but to depend on whether Zhu Youzhen still trusts him. Li Xin decided to take a gamble, and he bet that Zhu Youzhen's trust was still there.

However, Li Xin immediately became worried again, he did not have the qualifications to enter the palace at any time, and if he wanted to see the emperor, he had to be summoned by the emperor. Now that Jinyiwei wants to arrest him, there is a chance that he will be locked up in the edict prison, and the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division will also arrest him, do they want to hand him over to Shuntianfu?

Speaking of Shuntianfu, Li Xin suddenly thought that the day after the attack, Gao Keng had told him that the people from Shuntianfu had come to Taiji Factory to search, which means that Shuntianfu had an inseparable relationship with the mastermind behind the scenes. Compared with falling into the hands of Shuntianfu, it is better to fall into the hands of Jinyiwei. But who can guarantee that Jinyiwei has no connection with the mastermind behind the scenes?

The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division were finally outnumbered and beaten to the ground by the Jinyi Guards, but after all, they were all their own family members who had concerns even if they did it, so both sides kept their hands, but injuries were inevitable, but not a single life was injured.

The calming soothing made Zhang Liang laugh fiercely.

"I don't think I can do it, and I don't look at the identity of our masters, Jinyiwei is the emperor's pro-army, can any cat or dog be provoked?"

The generals of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division suffered a loss and were captured, but they didn't argue, they snorted and turned their heads.

Zhang Liang's arrogance could not last, and he soon became worried, although he subdued the soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in the courtyard, and even Li Xin was in his control, but the crowds outside were all people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and one person could tear them apart with a single hand. Another glance saw Li Xin standing at the door of the room with a Yanling knife horizontally, and there was a whistle.

"Take down the rebels first!"

Keeping him is unstable dìng factor, and this yard must be completely under his control.

Li Xin secretly said that it was not good, and the Yanling knife given by the emperor did not work, what should he do, fight, or not?

was hesitating in doubt, only to hear the commotion outside again, the footsteps were chaotic, maybe there was someone coming again, and then there seemed to be the sound of weapons fighting. The chaos lasted for about a cup of tea, and then it was calm again.

"Please open the door, brothers, it's too late!"

Zhang Liang was overjoyed, it was the reinforcements that arrived, and with a wave of his big hand, the brocade guards who blocked the door withdrew, but the door fell to the ground with a bang. But seeing that the soldiers and horses of the five cities were all confiscated and listed in the two compartments, the brocade guards were majestic and high-spirited.

Li Xinxin said, Jinyi Weiguo is the mountains and rivers are declining, and now even the soldiers and horses of the five cities dare to oppose them.

Zhang Liang glanced at Li Xin again, "Does General Li still want us to use force?" ”

Li Xinchang sighed and put down the Qinci Yanling knife.

"I'll go with you!"

Zhang Liang sneered.

"It's still good to lift, let's go!"

In the end, these brocade guards did not embarrass Li Xin, nor did they use force on him, or use restraints, but only pressed him out of the Taiji factory. As Li Xin expected, they went straight to the edict.

The conditions in the Imperial Prison were far better than expected, and because Jinyiwei lost the favor of the emperor, there were not many people arrested, and only a few insignificant officials were kept in a few cells. Li Xin was taken to one of the rooms, and the Jinyi guard neatly locked the cell door, and it seemed that he had no intention of arraignment.

"What are you going to do with me?"

The Jinyi guard who locked the door had a good attitude, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "If you enter the edict, you will naturally let the emperor decide!" ”

Li Xin also said that he has a good temper, in fact, this is the professional habit of the Jinyi guard, the edict is not an ordinary person is qualified to enter, and the people who can be locked up here are registered in front of the emperor, and they may be reactivated one day. Therefore, the brocade guards who guarded the edict were extremely polite to these special prisoners, and only Zhang Liang's arrogance was an outlier.

"General Li, General Li?"

As soon as Li Xin fell on the bed, he heard his name called. Li Xin wondered, this voice was so familiar.

"Who?"

The doors of the cells were made of iron bars three fingers thick, but the partitions between them were stone walls, so he could only hear the sounds, but not see each other.

I only heard another voice gloating and said: "Isn't General Li a popular man in front of the emperor, how did he also go to the edict?" Now that his eyes are above the top, even Liu Ge doesn't recognize him? ”

Li Xin suddenly realized that the familiar voice was Liu Yuliang. Needless to say, the schadenfreude voice must have been Xiong Kaiyuan. I can't help but sigh, fate is really tricky, and I became cellmates with them.

"It turned out to be Lord Liu and Lord Xiong, why did you two go to the Imperial Prison?"

Li Xin's question was equivalent to when this man said a short word, Xiong Kaiyuan's yin and yang strange voice came from the other end of the wall.

"Not because of you!"

After the city of Gaoyang was broken, Liu Yuliang and Xiong Kaiyuan escaped by luck, and returned to the capital after a lot of hardships. It wasn't until later that Yang Sichang asked someone to bring in the words that he knew that the reason for his imprisonment was that he had tampered with Li Xin's merits.

Now that Li Xin has been arrested, the two of them are surprised and relieved.

Unlike Xiong Kaiyuan, Liu Yuliang smelled an unusual smell from Li Xin's imprisonment, and it seemed that he was involved in the wrestling of various forces in the Jingshi. Liu Yuliang did not ridicule Li Xin verbally, but asked a few questions.

Although Li Xin was disgusted that he had tampered with his own merits, there was no need to confront him in words, after all, he had already received the punishment he deserved, so he answered truthfully one by one. Liu Yuliang pondered for a moment, and actually laughed out loud.

"Li Xin, Li Xin, what a poor man, do you want to know who harmed you in prison this time?"

Xiong Kaiyuan said on the side: "I was sold and I am still helping to count the money!" ”

Li Xin just wanted to ask Liu Yuliang who directed Lu Jiu's rebellion and brought himself to prison, but he heard the sound of the door opening outside, and then someone came in and opened the door after Li Xin's cell was located.

"Follow me!"

only said three simple words, Li Xin followed out despite being puzzled. Turning around to a room, the man stopped and motioned for Li Xin to go in by himself.

Li Xin pushed the door in inexplicably, only to see a middle-aged man sitting in it, who else was Zhu Youzhen, the son of the great tomorrow? There were two eunuchs standing beside Zhu Youzhen, one of whom was his old acquaintance Gao Keng, and the other was a fresh face. Li Xin hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Long live the minister's Li Xin!"

"Get up, you have been wronged!"

The door was closed from the outside, and Zhu Youzhen helped Li Xin, looking up and down before spitting out a sentence.

"I believe in you!"

Li Xin said, do you believe that I also arrested Lao Tzu and brought him to the edict where this bird doesn't.

"But the cabinet doesn't believe you, so I made a bet with them, if you don't have a ghost in your heart, you will obediently follow the Jinyi guard to the edict, and wait for me to give you justice!" Now, I've done you justice! ”

Hearing Zhu Youzhen say this, Li Xin secretly said that he was lucky, and he almost had the idea of escaping. Rebellion requires a big punishment, how can an outlaw be willing to wait to be killed, and he may still have a way to survive if he fights, so the cabinet thinks that he must not dare to come to prison with Jinyiwei. But Li Xin just came, and he didn't even resist, but just showed the Yanling knife given by the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen was very satisfied with Li Xin's appearance, thinking that he was not wrong, as for the rebellious Lu Jiu, it was obvious that he was not a person from Li Xin.

"I'll go out with me in a while, hurry up and prepare to go to work, don't delay the trip!"

Emperor Chongzhen was notoriously suspicious and sensitive in history, and Li Xin's subordinates were suspected of rebellion, and he even felt relieved to let him out of the town, and he couldn't help but be greatly moved by this trust, and he felt that it was still necessary to say a few words for Lu Jiu.

"Long live, the minister thinks that Lu Jiu has no reason to rebel in his senses, isn't there any misunderstanding?"

Zhu Youzhen didn't care about whether Lu Jiu's rebellion was misunderstood, he only cared about the lucky general in front of him. If Lu Jiu's rebellion was really related to Li Xin, would the fool stay in the city, and wait to follow Jinyiwei back to the edict? There is a more important point, a warrior who dares to stand up in the midst of the siege of ten thousand armies to help defend the city against the Tartars, and then rebels out of the camp under the condition that the enemy chieftain is extremely courteous, and finally takes the head of the enemy chief in the midst of the encirclement of ten thousand troops, and gallops thousands of miles to the aid of the Beijing division, will never do such a betrayal of the master.

Zhu Youzhen trusted his instincts.

"Well, I have already investigated this matter with Fang Zhenghua, and if there is a misunderstanding, he will definitely be cleared."

Li Xin dared not to avoid suspicion and speak for his subordinates, which showed that he had a clear conscience, Zhu Youzhen was very satisfied, he suddenly remembered something and asked: "How is Zhou Jin, the teacher of Gaoyang County?" ”

The emperor's thinking was very jumpy, and Li Xin couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"Loyalty, integrity, justice, and single-mindedness for the country are a bit pedantic!"

Zhu Youzhen laughed.

"This is an interesting review, how about I give you a general sentence?"
