Chapter Eighty-Four: All Cannon Fodder
"Miss Lin, little boy, he ......." There was a slight embarrassment on Le Qing's gentle face.
Lin Xingyu interrupted him with a smile: "I know, Le Gongzi doesn't have to care, Xiaotong is like a cactus, whoever comes close to you will be pricked by him." ”
A little smile appeared in Le Qing's warm eyes, making that fairy-like face not far away, but full of vitality.
"By the way, what about General Qu? Isn't he together? She had a hunch that something big would happen at this banquet in Linbu.
Le Qing shook his head as he walked: "Someone from the Wang's Mansion still needs to investigate." ”
It turned out that she went to Wang Yun's side, so it would not be too hasty for the two of them to go to the banquet, if there was any danger, then she would become a burden.
"Otherwise, let the boy accompany you! Or, let's go with the three of us. The more Lin Xingyu thought about it, the more he felt that he had to bring the child, at least the child could also do martial arts.
Le Qing turned to look at her and chuckled: "There are fourteen secretly following, and those people don't dare to come nonsense." After a pause: "Xiao Tong has other things to do, it's not that Jin won't let him follow." ”
Since that little guy has other things to do, why did Le Qing let him go back just now, but he looked like he was going to eat her?
This time, Leqing did not order someone to prepare a carriage, but walked side by side on the street with Lin Xingyu, who was dressed in men's clothes.
With Qu Ziyi's daily food and porridge, and the weather has always been sunny, so there are scattered pedestrians coming and going on the originally empty streets.
Le Qing is handsome and elegant, attracting the people on the street to look at him frequently.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Lin Xingyu deliberately took a step behind and distanced himself from himself, Le Qing asked puzzledly.
Lin Xingyu glanced at the crowd around him and shook his head: "It's nothing." ”
She can say that walking with him is very stressful, and it makes her feel like she is in the spotlight, and this illusion of becoming the focus of attention makes her very uncomfortable.
Le Qing just smiled, and didn't ask, but changed the topic: "What does Miss Lin think about today's events?" ”
His tone seemed casual, but in fact he was seriously asking for her opinion.
Lin Xingyu was a little flattered to catch up with him and said his thoughts: "I think both Lin Bu and Wang Yun are cannon fodder, little minions who were deliberately pushed out to block the gun." ”
Maybe that roster has fallen into the hands of high-level officials, after all, the low-level officials and envoys are all inconspicuous small characters, where to rob the old fox who has practiced for thousands of years.
A hint of surprise flashed in Le Qing's eyes, and he asked, "Oh? How so? ”
Although he had never heard the words cannon fodder and gun blocking in her mouth, it was not difficult to understand the whole sentence she said.
"Le Gongzi, before I answer you, can you answer me a few questions?" Lin Xingyu said in a consultative tone.
Le Qing nodded without hesitation: "You ask." ”
"According to my estimates, there are not thousands of names on the roster, but also hundreds, if the emperor gets the roster, he will definitely not ask these people one by one, at most pick a few inconspicuous small shrimps to open the knife, and give those senior moths a wake-up call, am I right?" Now that they have walked to the end of the street, there is no one in sight, so Lin Xingyu dares to speak so openly.
Le Qing looked at her in surprise, but she didn't expect this Lin girl to be so clear about the affairs of the court: "Yes, the whole body is affected by a hair, the court is unstable, the border is turbulent, and the emperor can't deal with those senior ministers now." ”
Scold! Comparing the imperial court officials to small shrimps and moths, even the prefect Wang and her father are called little minions, and only the Lin girl in front of her dares to describe it like this.
"In other words, if the emperor gets the roster, he will catch the handle of those official corruption, as long as the time is ripe, these people will be found out one by one?"
"Naturally, the emperor will not let the court continue to be corrupt."
I'm afraid that the emperor won't survive that day, if she remembers correctly, the emperor still has a year to live.
As soon as the emperor dies, the Qin State will be in chaos, and his sons and vassal kings from all over the country will fight for the golden throne, who still has time to take care of any corrupt officials, even if someone wants to manage it, they can't manage it, after all, the backstage of those corrupt officials is not the prince but the prince, who has nothing to do to catch their pigtails.
"I'm done with my question, it's time for me to answer your question." Lin Xingyu actually didn't want Le Qing to find any roster, and it didn't make much use if he found it, at most he would punish three or two inconspicuous petty officials, but he took his life to do it.
What's the difference between this and working with your head in vain?
However, her selfishness had to encourage Le Qing to find the roster, because the roster is equal to her task, and the task is equal to her life, so the roster is equal to her life, and life is at stake, can she not be active!
"Look, since people like Lin Bu and Wang Yun with low official positions have found out who the roster is, how can those old foxes with prominent official positions not be found? Maybe every move of those petty officials and envoys is under their control, and even Lord Qincha is not immune to living under their noses. Therefore, I believe that the roster will definitely not fall into the hands of petty officials and petty officials. ”
Le Qing stopped, glanced at the plaque with a few big characters hanging in the distance, and then stared back at Lin Xingyu: "Then Miss Lin thinks that the roster is more likely to fall into whose hands?" ”
Lin Xingyu moved his lips and only said two words.
Le Qing's first reaction was not disbelief, but he was stunned and shocked, so much so that he followed Lin Xingyu into the door of Xiangmanlou and did not come back to his senses.
After entering the Xiangman Building, the shopkeeper nodded and led them into a private room on the second floor.
"Oops! Lord Qincha, you are finally here, the lower officials have already prepared the wine and food, just waiting for you, come on, come on, please take a seat. ”
As soon as I opened the door of the private room, someone greeted me warmly.
There are not many people in the private room, only three people, and it just so happens that Lin Xingyu has seen these three people.
"Ziyun envoy, Lin Zhizhou, Zhao Chang envoy!" Le Qing greeted them one by one.
After greeting each other, the four of them sat down, while Lin Xingyu stood behind Le Qing expressionlessly.
Lin Bu hadn't looked at her again since he had glanced at her when she entered the door, as if he were strangers to her.
The hot wine and food were served on the table, and the aroma was overflowing, almost not hooking out the gluttonous worms in Lin Xingyu's belly.
"Lord Qincha, the lower officials know that you are not good at drinking, so I took out the treasured jade top nectar from my home, you can taste it and see how it tastes." Lord Zhao poured tea for Le Qing with a smile on his face.
"Lord Zhao, my son-in-law is unwell today, so let the villain drink this tea for him." Without waiting for Le Qing to speak, Lin Xingyu reached out and took the teacup in front of Le Qing and drank it all.
