Chapter 222: Doubts in My Heart
"Master, then we can't sue them?" Miao Miao grabbed the candied fruit and ate it, tilting her head and saying.
Qiao'er also said: "The slave is willing to bear witness to the master!" ”
"What's the use of your testimony? Not to mention that those assassins are all dead, even if they are alive, if they can bite the Bai family in the yamen, will the Bai family not be able to suppress this matter? ”
If the Bai family doesn't even have this ability, how could the huge Li family be framed to death, and after his death, there was not even the slightest doubt in the court?
Lizhan thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it all.
She lowered her head lightly, took a sip of tea, turned her head to Duan Changyin and said, "This white crane tea is very good, the buds are golden, and they are covered with silver quill, which is of the highest quality." Five years ago, ten taels of silver could not drink such a good tea. ”
When Duan Changyin heard it, he also happily took a sip and tasted it, it was indeed a good tea.
"That little second saw that you were from the Thousand Mountains Palace, so he deliberately took a good tea to flatter you. I can't complain that Miao Miao wants to mix in your name, it turns out that the people of your Thousand Mountains Hall have such benefits when they drink tea. "Leaving the lamp and saying,
Duan Changyin laughed again.
Qiao'er saw that the two of them were talking eloquently, and did not take the assassin's matter seriously.
But the events of that night made her a little scared as soon as she entered the night, and now she still has a numb scalp when she thinks about it......
If it weren't for the coincidence of Changyin Gongzi that night, now the master would have been drinking soup on the Nai He Bridge, and someone had the intention of harming her, now everyone knows who it is, why is she not in such a hurry?
Qiao'er gritted her teeth and suddenly said behind Lizhan, "They are so arrogant with the Bai family!" Can't even the law take them? ”
Lizhan looked back at Qiao'er with a smile and said, "Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimp." We are small fish, and the Bai family is a giant crocodile. You sue Jing Zhao Yin's mansion, Jing Zhao Yin is just a crab in the sky, just walk sideways in front of the shrimp, the giant crocodile is coming, does he dare to move? ”
Qiao'er Muran.
"Jing Zhaoyin didn't dare to offend the Bai family at all, if he took this case, he would definitely discuss it with the Bai family immediately, and it would not be an official to protect him at that time."
Qiao'er was unwilling, and opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't say anything.
"Bai Zhaoqin is the prime minister. The only person who can be above him is the emperor, and the crown prince can at most be equal to him. But will the prince help us? The crown prince is towards the Bai family. Will the emperor help us? This little thing as big as a sesame mung bean can't alarm the holy driver. No matter how big you make a fuss, the emperor will not leave the palace, who would dare to offend the Bai family and go to the emperor to confess Bai Zhaoqin's state? ”
Lizhan became addicted to preaching, moistened his throat with the teacup and continued, "Even if there are people who are upright and upright, temper themselves and are not used to seeing the Bai family acting and willing to help us, but the emperor may not be able to investigate it when he listens to it." The court wants to employ people and bring down the prime minister, who will be the prime minister? This position is not something that everyone does well. When the pros outweigh the disadvantages, people will choose to turn a blind eye. If the prime minister of a country can be easily replaced, what has become of this country? ”
Qiao'er was guided by her like this, and she was completely transparent, like a fighting being bitten on the crown, and her head drooped.
"Miss is right, the people don't fight with the officials. Being an official has this advantage, otherwise why would everyone have to fight for that official position. The minions just feel wronged, we almost lost our lives, but there is nowhere to complain. ”
"Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Lizhan's tone was flat, but there were dark stings flashing in the depths of his eyes, which made people feel cold and panicked at a glance.
Duan Changyin had never seen such a detachment, and he couldn't help but feel stunned.
The light quickly disappeared again, as if Fang Cai's vicious eyes were just someone else's illusion.
After sitting in the teahouse for a while, she had only been able to inquire about her own affairs, and she asked about the assassin on the left, and she didn't ask about Duan Changyin's illness.
And Duan Changyin himself is like a mystery, she has a lot of doubts in her heart and wants to ask, but last time he left in too much hurry and didn't ask.
Coincidentally, now that there is good tea served, she plans to talk openly.
"Changyin, to be honest, when you were imprisoned in the Qi Palace, I had always doubted your identity, but I didn't dare to believe that you were the overseer of the Thousand Mountains Palace, until the last time I heard your disciple call you that. I'm not saying you're bad at martial arts...... I just always thought that the inspector who could do the Thousand Mountains Hall should be a calm middle-aged man, you are so young, before you recovered your memory, your temperament was very simple, and it was difficult to connect with the inspector of the Thousand Mountains Palace. ”
When Miao Miao heard this, she turned her head in amazement and looked at Duan Changyin.
"Is the immortal the Lingxiao prince who carries the Qinghong Sword on his back and sits in charge of a thousand mountains?"
"Under ...... I only remembered it later, and when I wanted to tell the girl, I was troubled by something. ”
"It's okay, I know your illness, you didn't mean to hide it from me. Besides, you have a special identity, if you hide it from me, it is also a matter of course. But is Changyin's illness better? ”
"I'm almost healed." He bowed slightly, "Thank you, girl, for finding the miracle medicine for you." ”
"So, you remember?" Lizhan was anxious, so she blurted out a question without much thought, and when the words came out, she regretted it again.
For Changyin, she is very indebted in her heart.
The disciples of the Thousand Mountains Hall were killed because she wanted to recover the corpses of her father and brother.
In the end, the Qianshan Hall was crowned with a trumped-up charge of robbing the corpse of the criminal minister, and the head of the Qianshan Hall couldn't hold it back, and sent his disciples into Beijing to find their whereabouts, but he didn't expect that the later batch died inexplicably, and the corpses were still held by the yamen.
At that time, Duan Changyin also went to the gate of the yamen and removed a group of troublesome disciples. The mask in Miao Miao's hand was given by Duan Changyin when he left.
He must have been so merciful that he must have been very sad when he decided to give up on returning the corpse.
It's just that he is the superintendent of the Thousand Mountains Hall after all, and he can't let the Thousand Mountains Hall fall into the infamy of going against the imperial court.
Li Zhan felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know if after he recovered his memory, he would remember the disciples who were under the control of King Qi's Mansion with him before, and find out some clues.
Lizhan rubbed his cup back and forth with his ten fingers, anxiously waiting for his answer.
"Most of them can be remembered." Duan Changyin lowered his head and blew the tea gently.
The hand holding the cup tighter, "A while ago, the disciple of the Thousand Mountains Hall died inexplicably, why didn't Gongzi suddenly pursue it?" Have you scrutinized it secretly? ”
"King Qi did it."
"Changyin, can you find out?"
Lizhan's heart tugged slightly, and he slowly looked at Duan Changyin with his side head, his clear eyes fixed on the tea in the cup, but he couldn't reflect the slightest light, turned into a gray piece, and silently acquiesced to the answer.
Lizhan is becoming more and more unable to figure out the relationship between the two.
It stands to reason that Gu Fuwei sacrificed his life to save him, has been carefully recuperating his body, and has been meticulous to him.
Later, he had a big fight with Gu Fuwei, but Gu Fuwei didn't pursue it, and let him go at will.
In Lizhan's opinion, Gu Fuwei accommodates him everywhere, but why are the two of them like enemies?
That doesn't make sense......
"Changyin, there are some things I have forgotten to tell you, in fact, when you almost died of illness, it was King Qi who crossed half of the frost thorns on your body so that you could survive."
The corners of Duan Chang's mouth twitched slightly.
"It's because he got rid of that half of the frost thorn that his own liver is gone, and if he finds it any later, he should die for you."
Seeing Duan Changyin's reaction, she thought that there was really some misunderstanding in this and was opened by her, so she leaned in and smiled reluctantly.
Duan Changyin also replied with a very warm smile: "He was poisoned by the frost thorn, and it was a lot of uproar, and it is not difficult to know if you inquire a little." I know that he saved me. ”
It turned out that he said a bunch of nonsense. Lizhan was slightly embarrassed, "That's good, that's good, I'...... I'm an outsider, I don't know what entanglements there are between the two of you, but in those days, His Royal Highness King Qi was still very worried about your body. Have you really found out that the disciples sent later also died at his hands? ”
After all, Gu Fuwei once swore that the people who died after him had nothing to do with him.
Duan Changyin took a sip of tea and spit out a word very calmly, "Yes." ”
"But why, he clearly ...... you"
"The poison was caused by his own people, and there were spies in the Thousand Mountains Palace." The white mist rising from the teacup obscured the scene in his eyes, and he couldn't see his emotions when he said this.
