After Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu recovered, Zhao Shanfeng came to visit them, thanked them, praised their bravery at that time, and also gave them a lot of things to encourage them, including a long sword, because Lin Tianyang's long sword was cut off, Zhao Shanfeng specially gave Lin Tianyang a high-grade sword.

"These things are always good for swords, but they can only be used now." Lin Tianyang looked at the long sword in his hand and said.

"Satisfied, this is very good, and these supplements, it seems that this Lord Zhao has a lot of trust in us, at least he has accepted us." Chen Susu said.

Lin Tianyang nodded and said, "That's fine, we can also have more opportunities to come to Master." ”

After a pause, Lin Tianyang said: "This matter can't be said again in the future, there are many ears and eyes here, maybe someone will listen to it, and it will be bad to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

Chen Susu nodded and didn't say anything, Lin Tianyang didn't speak again, and both of them took this matter to heart.

Liu Liqin was also very satisfied with the performance of Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu, but he didn't know why the two of them were not poisoned, but he didn't ask this question, but he pressed it in his heart.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu listened to Zhao Shanfeng after they woke up, a total of four people were attacked that night, one died, and the remaining two were seriously injured, this incident shocked the government and the opposition, and the court filmed a special person to investigate this matter, Zhao Shanfeng hid Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu from them, and did not let those people come to them for questioning, and then the matter was handed over to Liu Liqin to deal with.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu have nothing to do, they spend most of their time cultivating every day, although they are in the bustling capital, but their strength is improving quickly.

This morning, after Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu's purple qi in the east dissipated, they stopped cultivating, washed up, and prepared to eat breakfast, and Liu Liqin came to them.

"Lord Liu, your face is not very good-looking, is something wrong again?" Chen Susu asked.

"Hey, it's dead again." Liu Liqin sighed and said, and then continued: "Originally, the matter of the last time the adults were intercepted and killed has come to an end, although the murderer has not been found, but it has passed, but it has just passed less than half a month, and several candidates for the Yandao Yamen discussed at the banquet of the adults were assassinated last night, and all the candidates put forward by the adults were all killed, and the adults were called from above this morning, and this matter is not over." ”

Hearing the news, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu were stunned, who was going to kill these people? Could it be that there is another force involved?

Liu Liqin looked at the two people and said: "You should also know, that night, only the adults did not propose a candidate, so someone framed the adult for something to do with this assassination, saying that he did not propose a candidate at that time, just to protect that person, and now that the people mentioned by the adults are dead, it is the turn of our adults to propose people." ”

Just when Lin Tianyang was about to say something, someone brought breakfast, and it happened that Liu Liqin didn't eat it, so the three of them chatted while eating.

"The adult said before that the final decision on this matter is the ministry, he is the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and he is not suitable for meddling in this matter, and he has already cleared up the relationship, so why do people still want to force the adult to be involved?" Lin Tianyang asked puzzled.

Liu Liqin put down his chopsticks and said, "Do you remember the Taoist priest who intercepted us that night?" When we were injured and unconscious, the master behind the Taoist priest came to find the adult, although the adult did not say who the person was, but he refused to be courted by the person, but the outside world said that the adult had agreed to the master behind the scenes, so that the adult fell into a dilemma, and now it is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of some people. ”

Hearing Liu Liqin's words, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu both understood the truth, but before Zhao Shanfeng met with the Taoist master, someone wanted to kill Zhao Shanfeng, which means that someone had come to woo Zhao Shanfeng before.

"Lord Liu, isn't Lord Zhao Shangshu Zhao very dangerous now?" Lin Tianyang asked.

Liu Liqin nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed very dangerous, fortunately, Lord Zhao has been upright for so many years, for the country and the people, and has made some friends in the rivers and lakes, so he has helped him openly and secretly, and he has been worry-free for so many years, but now it is different, Lord Zhao has reached the point of stepping on the tip of the knife, the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, and there are many times when I am powerless." ”

Hearing this, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu glanced at each other, and Lin Tianyang asked, "Lord Liu, what should we do?" ”

Hearing Lin Tianyang's words, Liu Liqin was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly said: "Oh, it's okay, I was a little absorbed just now, don't be pressured, I'm just a little worried, there won't be a big problem, we just have to be ourselves, hurry up and eat, don't think too much." ”

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu nodded, and began to concentrate on eating.

After eating, Liu Liqin left, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu closed the door and continued to cultivate, they already had some understanding of officialdom through their understanding and experience during this time, they knew that Zhao Shanfeng was in danger, and the same was true for others, who could transcend all the officials in the entire capital, maybe only King Ning was the person who no one in the entire capital cared about; Therefore, if you want to survive in this whirlpool, you can only rely on yourself, and only strength is the only guarantee.

On this day, Zhao Shanfeng came back from the court, his face was very ugly, and he went straight to the study, and the person who was secretly protecting him before appeared in front of Zhao Shanfeng.

"My lord, your face is not good, is there someone in the court who has made another move?" The man asked.

"Several people united to attack me, but fortunately, I didn't have the handle to be caught by them, and I blocked them back, but the emperor's attitude was unclear, which made me a little unpredictable." Zhao Shanfeng said.

"My lord, it will be the Queen Mother's birthday in ten days, and our gifts have been prepared, otherwise we will send them to the palace now, this should be an opportunity for us." The man said.

"Okay, in this way, get ready, tomorrow we will send the gift to the Queen Mother, you have to do this matter in person, you can't make mistakes." Zhao Shanfeng said.

"Yes, my lord, I'll go and get ready." The man said.

The man paused for a moment, then said, "My lord, you can actually consider retiring after completing your work." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shanfeng sighed and said: "I also want to, I mentioned it once before, but the emperor didn't agree, so I didn't mention it again, and now that the situation is so complicated, I have no chance to retreat." ”

Early the next morning, someone came to call Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu to have breakfast with the adults.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu glanced at each other, knowing that something must have happened, so they followed the comer.

The two came to a hall, there were already a few people in it, all of them were good people, Liu Liqin and the arrow figure were also there, and now they knew that the arrow figure was called Yao Yinghua.

"Sit down, eat together, and have something to do after eating." Liu Liqin saw the two people coming, said with a smile, and then continued: "By the way, put all the weapons at home for a while, don't bring them." ”

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu sat on the two empty seats, and ate silently without saying anything.

After eating and drinking, Liu Liqin led everyone to the backyard, where there were two carriages, and there were a lot of boxes on the carriages, including a few mouthfuls escorted by Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu.

Seeing these boxes, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu understood that this was to send these things to the palace, the two of them had not been to the palace yet, and they were still a little excited in their hearts.

Soon, Zhao Shanfeng came with two people, one was Lin Tianyang whom they had never seen, and the other was the master who protected Zhao Shanfeng in the sedan chair that night.

"Let's go." Zhao Shanfeng said, then got into a sedan chair and walked out through the side door.

As soon as Liu Liqin waved his hand, everyone drove two big cars out of the side door.

The convoy walked out for more than half an hour and came to the outside of the palace, two streets away from the palace, the convoy stopped, and Zhao Shanfeng got off the sedan chair.

"Unload the things and carry them away." Liu Liqin said loudly.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu moved together with others, so they lifted the boxes on the car and followed Zhao Shanfeng towards the side door of the palace.

Lin Tianyang didn't know why he didn't just drive the car to the door, but he didn't ask, and walked forward with another person carrying a box and following everyone.

"This is the rule, no matter how big or small the official, when he arrives outside the palace, he can't go directly to the palace, he must get off the horse and get off the car at least one street entrance, and walk to the palace gate, and the adults will get off the horse and park two streets away, which is the respect for the queen mother." Chen Susu whispered beside Lin Tianyang.

Hearing Chen Susu's explanation, Lin Tianyang showed his original expression, the rules of this court are really big, no wonder Zhao Shanfeng is such a big official still trembling and walking on thin ice.

Walking out of a street corner, everyone saw several groups of people coming from other directions, each team was carrying some boxes, they should all be here to give birthday gifts to the queen mother, Zhao Shanfeng was far away and greeted the leaders of those teams.

The line did not go straight to the side door, but went around the side door and ran to the back door, where there was another door, and outside that gate, there were already many people in line.
