006 Praying mantis catches cicadas
In the next few days, except for patrolling the palace three times a month, Li Mo spent the rest of his days in the capital as an inspector. One day, an old guest in his fifties came to the Kingoin Temple. "Zhou Zhan's matter?" Li Di, who was learning calligraphy, raised his head and put aside the wolf's hair, "Why don't you stay in Zhan Shifu, what kind of wind blew you to my side." Zhou Xinchu's face was flustered, and he arched his hand and said: "My lord, the old man is no longer Zhan Shi, the king is in trouble, the hidden bow is imminent, and it is difficult for the Qinggong to protect his position!" Li Yi smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, you can first take a look at my "Twilight Spring Post", I pride myself on being a little more handsome than Yang Gong." Li Yi looked at his pen and ink with satisfaction, as if his mind was completely absent from the matter. Zhou Xinchu wiped a handful of sweat and said: "My lord, the emperor not only demoted the old man's official position, but all the mansions and master books of the Zhan Mansion have replaced the newcomers, and the prince's cronies have almost nothing left, and the palace is full of the emperor's eyeliner......" Li Yuan put down the rice paper, and then frowned and said: "Who is the new Zhan Shi?" "Yu Jing Gong." Zhou Xinchu reported the names of several new mansions and the main book. Li Yi has heard of these people, in addition to being the emperor's eyeliner, they are also friends of King Cheng, King Cheng has a wide range of connections, and there are many things about corruption and perversion of the law, and they rely on Han Bingquan to do bad things to him in private. Li Mo asked, "What does the prince say?" "The prince has sent a minister to invite you to enter the East Palace quickly." "Don't, I have a lot of dealings with the prince on weekdays, and I am a staff member of the East Palace on the surface, but the emperor is suspicious, since he has changed the people of the Zhan Mansion, it shows that he will also suspect me, if I rush into the palace at this time, I will definitely cause disaster." Zhou Xinchu wanted to cry without tears and said: "That...... So what do you say? "In this case, in ten days I will have to go into the palace to make my rounds, and then I will find an opportunity to meet the prince in the east palace." And tell the prince that you should not act rashly these days, and that you should be honest. Zhou Xinchu said "yes" and cautiously retreated.
Li Yi squinted at the sleepy Song Xingyue and said, "It's easy to get sleepy on dog days, if you really can't hold on, go back and rest." Xingyue woke up, wiped the saliva that flowed out, and said with a smile: "I'm not sleepy, I'm not sleepy, I can hold it." Li Yi turned around and walked back to the case, waved his hand and said, "Then come and study ink." ”
Jin Hui swam to the eaves, mottled and fine spots of light leaking through the dense shadow sieve. The clouds flow and the sun shines. Li Mo suddenly said: "You write two words and I'll take a look." Song Xingyue looked confused, took the wolf's hair, and wrote a few words on the post, she studied medicine with A-Niang since she was a child, and she has copied medical books and classics, although she can't understand it, but she has copied it for so many years, and the words are also correct. Li Yi didn't have any expectations for her, who was upright, but she couldn't match the skeleton demeanor. He couldn't help but ask, "How many years have you been studying?" "It's probably only four or five years." Li Yu smiled: "You are like this, I am afraid that you will be punished by Mr. to be soft." He suddenly recalled Master Jiang's word-by-word admonition when he was young, and he couldn't help but feel a little softer between his eyebrows. Xingyue captured this moment and found that there was a little less coldness in him. Li Yi said: "I'll teach you." He pasted Xingyue from behind, picked up the pen and licked the inkstone, and then let Xingyue hold it, while he wrapped her hand around her. Such a skin-to-skin kiss, hot and hot, through a thin layer of clothing, you can feel the temperature transmitted from each other. Xingyue's whole body was frozen, his palms were wide, there were many calluses of different thicknesses, and his face rubbed slightly against her sideburns.
The boy listened to the rain song upstairs. Li Yi wrote according to the pen, his words are round and handsome, and there is a smart atmosphere. Li Mo let go of his hand, his body pulled away a little, and Xingyue also put aside his pen and ink, with a shy face. Just as Kou Lu came in with a basin of ice, Xingyue retreated to the side to study the ink. Li Mo was a little annoyed for some reason, straightened his clothes, took another one, and walked on the paper. Kou Lu held a fan on one side to fan the wind, and the cold mist on the ice slightly dispelled the heat, and the two of them secretly became hot.
The fragrance of flowers outside the house suddenly wafted in, covering the faint fragrance of ink. The divine light is clutched, and the yin and yang are at first glance.
On this day, Li Duo was inspecting the capital, and his mind was suddenly and a little absent-minded. Zhan Shifu has changed a new person, and it is absolutely impossible for the emperor not to suspect him. But now it is beneficial to him that the prince has completely trusted him, and it is not in vain that he has worked hard for many years to manage the relationship with the prince. Every time he enters the East Palace, the long road that extends from the outside of the hall to the inside, the flying pavilion above the main hall, the Hongtu Huaguo, and the koi fish that he once raised in the waterhole in the palace are all very familiar. This mediocre and incompetent prince only wants to stabilize the position of the prince, he must not know that the desert is thousands of miles, and the young man who fled in a hurry is about to come back. Thinking of this, Li Yuan tightened his fists.
Chen Feng said: "My lord, there is turmoil over there. When Li Yan heard this, he saw that the outside of a square was full of people, and some people were arguing inside. Suddenly, a stool was smashed out and scattered on the ground. Li Di dismounted, walked through the crowd and entered the workshop, and saw an angry, red-faced man holding a small group of people roaring. Isn't that what it means to become a king? King Cheng let go of his hand when he saw Li Yuan, and said in a thick voice: "Lord Jinwu came just in time, Cheng Can, the son of this king, died violently in this gambling house opened by General Zhenguo, what do you think?" King Cheng looked disdainful, his nostrils were soaring, as if he didn't take him in his eyes at all, and his tone was full of ridicule, King Cheng thought that Li Nai and Li Nai were brothers, so he thought that Li Nai would definitely bend the law for personal gain. Li Yi bowed his hand and said: "Don't worry, Chengwang, this matter will be handed over to you, and you will definitely be given justice in the future." "If this matter can't be solved, this king will definitely not give up! Walk! So he led the crowd behind him and went away in a rage.
Li Yi stepped forward and asked the little guy: "How did the prince of Cheng die violently?" Xiao Zhanzhan took out a bronze medal and said, "Small...... I don't know if it's a little one.,It's the murderer who stayed.,Adult, take a look.。 Li Mo took it, and it turned out to be the trick of the Senluo faction, who was behind it? Could it be that Li Nai has dealings with the Senluo faction? Li Nai shook his head, although Li Nai was bent on ascending to the position of a general, but with his understanding of Li Nai, he would never have anything to do with these bloodless people who killed people without seeing blood. Li Yi and Chen Fei left the gambling house and sent people to surround the gambling house. Chen Feng was puzzled: "My lord, the Senluo faction is so arrogant, every time he acts, he will leave a secret message, and now he can avoid the watchtower and commit murder in the capital, behind it is really as Tang Gongzi said, he must have the right to be the minister, but what is his intention to do these things?" "This person should be pretending to be the hands of the Senluo faction to create chaos in the royal family and eradicate dissidents," Li Mo said without hesitation, "Big brother is going to suffer some trouble recently." Let's go, since we already know that it was the Senluo faction that did it, then staying here is just a headless fly. "Whew."
Li Yi informed Captain Qin and all the archers on the watchtower to step up their precautions.
He chose a day to meet in the box of a restaurant and became king. King Cheng looked much haggard, as if he was still immersed in the pain of losing his son. Li Mo took out the bronze medal after a few words of greeting, and told him what the Senluo faction had done and the purpose behind it. King Cheng clasped the wine glass, rubbed the rim of the glass, and thought: "You mean, this person is calculating the king and the general of Zhenguo?" Li Yi said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "That's right, this person intends to divide the relationship between my eldest brother and King Cheng, so as to benefit from it, if you really fulfill his wish at this time, it will not benefit you." The Senluo faction is like a straight hook, whether you become a king or not, it all depends on the will of the king. King Cheng drank it all, lowered his head, his eyes became fierce, the two beards under his nose trembled slightly, and he suddenly sneered: "How can this king know that if you are not interceding for your eldest brother?" Li Yi replied: "I, Li Yuan, am not a person who bends the law for personal gain, and you don't know about the battle for military power in our Li family." "Then what do you say, Cheng Can's death can't end like this!" King Cheng drank another glass of wine. "I would like to ask you a question, do you have any suspicious political enemies?" King Cheng squinted at Li Yuan, touched his chin with one hand and thought about it, and suddenly patted his head and said: "I almost forgot Yan Sicheng, a few days ago, the king of Japan went to the town government to discuss the law, then Li Nai actually said that Yan Sicheng instigated him to build a gambling house, and also drove away a group of people in the east of the city. And this king has long suspected what he is doing with Yi Ansi, and Cheng Can's death must have nothing to do with him! King Cheng slammed the table.
Li Yi suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he saw on the street that a group of people's homes had been demolished and left homeless. I didn't expect it to have something to do with Yan Song, this person is really not as simple as he seems. "King Cheng, there is only one person who can help you now." "Say." "The prince is affectionate and righteous, and he is good friends with Cheng Can. The emperor can't control these things, the prince is different, as long as he wears a python robe, right and wrong, right and wrong, it doesn't matter at all. If you let the new Zhan Shi of the Zhan Mansion and the princes and the chief bookkeeper of the Zhan Mansion take care of it more, the prince will be grateful, and it will be easy to find out the initiator with the authority of the prince. King Cheng said: "Lord Jinwu is really loyal to the crown prince, and he learned from Zhan Shifu that this king is here so quickly." Li Mo said with a smile: "I'm just a staff member, but you and the prince can take what they need, and this is the joy of everyone." Besides, if the crown prince really ascends to the throne in the future, then you will inevitably follow the additional officials and become knights, why not? King Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and the two parted ways after exchanging a few words. Li Yi took a sip of wine, half smug and half ruthless.
Everything is within his range, and success or failure is only beneficial to him.
That night, Song Xingyue, who was lost, was caught by Qin Duwei, the surrounding flames were soaring, the soldiers raised their swords to surround her, and she was escorted by two soldiers. Xingyue didn't know what mistake she had made at all, and only listened to Qin Duwei shouting: "The day is over, haven't you heard six hundred closed-door drums!" According to the "Palace Guard Order", you have committed the crime of committing a night crime, and you will be punished with 20 lashes, and the law will be corrected on the spot! Immediately, someone brought it to knock, and Xingyue shouted, "Hey! I'm a member of Kingoin, so if you're not afraid of Kingo-sama, then you'll let the horses come!" Qin Duwei glared at the round angry eyes, pointed at her with a charcoal black hand, and said, "Messing around with the dead girl, give me a beating!" ”
A clear young man's voice sounded: "Slow down-" Seeing that the person who came was Li Di, Qin Duwei immediately surrendered his hand, and did not forget to expose Xingyue's charges again. "She is really a member of my Jinwu Academy, and she will be punished by herself, so she doesn't have to bother everyone." Xingyue hid behind Li Yu and made a grimace at Captain Qin. Captain Qin was so angry that he could only lead a group of soldiers away. Xingyue was worried that Li Yuan's suspicious temperament was about to attack again, so she hurriedly explained while walking: "I...... I didn't know that there was still such a rule, today I was going to go out shopping with Koro, and I said that I would go separately, but I forgot how to go back......" She said more and more quietly, like a gnat. Li Yi put his hand behind: "Pay attention next time." "Then you won't punish me!" "If you want me to punish you, it's not impossible." "No, no, no, I don't want to, I don't want to, hehe......"
