Chapter 12: Preparing to join forces
The assassin was already recruiting, and Wang Lin was finally able to give the emperor an errand, but at this time, the forbidden army in the palace also came.
"It turned out to be Jiang Shilang, what's the matter, is this because I'm afraid that the miscellaneous family won't be able to ask anything?" Wang Lin didn't know what he meant, generally speaking, this kind of thing was done by him, and at this time, the forbidden army would come, which made people have to think.
"There are assassins in the palace, and our forbidden army is also responsible, so naturally we have to come to check, since the nine thousand years old have already heard about it, let's discuss it together." Jiang Shilang said that he didn't admire such a eunuch who was nine thousand years old and achieved such a high position, that eunuch was a eunuch after all, and it was true that he looked down on him.
"In this case, let's go and sit down at the miscellaneous house over there." Wang Lin saw that the words that he spit out had been written on paper, so he ordered someone to take them with him.
"Nine thousand years old, what should this assassin do?" The father-in-law on the side hurriedly stopped.
"Just keep it for now, just like the other prisoners." Wang Lin glanced at the assassin, thinking that the assassin who could confess was not a loyal person, so it was better to keep her as a bait.
Wang Lin took Jiang Shilang to the study, Jiang Shilang didn't have much contact with Wang Lin on weekdays, and it was naturally the first time he came to his study.
Look carefully, it is very elegant, outside the window is a bamboo forest, the wind blows between the bamboo leaves, rustling, and there is a little bamboo fragrance.
It looks like the residence of a literati and scholars, and it doesn't look like a nine-thousand-year-old study with a strong government and opposition at all.
"Jiang Shilang have a cup of tea, this tea is this year's new tea, the tea fragrance is light, very pleasant." Wang Lin's slender white hands came over with a plate, but he heard his voice first.
It's just that Jiang Shilang looked at Wang Lin, but he didn't answer for a long time.
Wang Lin couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh, "Is Jiang Shilang afraid that this tea is not in tune, or does he think that this tea is not as good as the miscellaneous family?" Wang Lin was amused by Jiang Shilang's awe-inspiring appearance and looking like a suspect.
Jiang Shilang knew that he was rude, so he couldn't help coughing dryly and turned his face away.
"Now that these words have been recorded, there is no hurry, whether it is true or not, there are naturally traces to be found, and it is better to report to the emperor as soon as possible." Wang Lin took a sip of tea and made it calmly.
Jiang Shilang was surprised, Wang Lin didn't seem to be so anxious about this matter, and wanted to find out.
"Nine thousand years old, this tea is good, but the fragrance can't compare to the bamboo fragrance outside." Jiang Shilang knew that Wang Lin was not a simple person, and if he wanted to talk about the assassin, he could only wait until the other party was willing to talk.
Wang Lin looked at the bamboo forest outside, "When this residence was completed, the miscellaneous family took a fancy to the bamboo forest outside, and thought that if there was no such thing in the palace, the miscellaneous family would order someone to plant a piece." ”
"Nine thousand years old is such a big deal, the courtyard in this palace, except for the emperor, belongs to nine thousand years old."
"That's all thanks to the emperor's love, it turns out that the emperor still thinks that this courtyard is not big enough, but the miscellaneous family thinks it's too big and tired to walk, so they just give up." Wang Lin's voice was thin, just like singing on the stage, and it didn't sound annoying.
"But this time about the assassin, Jiu Qiansui doesn't seem to be in a hurry, but he wants to report it to the emperor, which is really a bit perfunctory." Jiang Shilang put down the teacup, and finally got to the point.
"Don't hide it from Jiang Shilang, the assassin this time was sent by the Ink Shadow Sect, and the miscellaneous family has also confirmed that the assassin's words are true." Wang Lin knew that the Ink Shadow Gate was a few years ago, but at that time, the Ink Shadow Gate was not as rampant as it is now.
"Ink Shadow Gate? I've heard that these are the remnants of the previous dynasty. Jiang Shilang asked tentatively.
"Jiang Shilang is worthy of being the commander of the forbidden army, but if the news of the remnants of the previous dynasty vainly trying to overthrow the new dynasty really spreads, wouldn't it be panicked, and let the Ink Shadow Gate have a chance?" Wang Lin knew that the emperor would know about this matter sooner or later, and the emperor seemed to be silent, but in fact, sometimes even he didn't know what he was thinking.
"What do you want to do with this?"
"It's better to wait until the remnants of the former dynasty are almost cleared up, and then report the truth to the emperor." Wang Lin stroked his sideburns, and he had a unique style. "But this matter is a bit tricky, the miscellaneous family still hopes to join forces with Jiang Shilang, otherwise it may be difficult to do it alone." Wang Lin raised his eyes to look at Jiang Shilang, and with a flash of light in his eyes, he knew that Jiang Shilang would definitely agree.
Now that the two have reached an agreement, the next words will be much smoother, even if you don't know what else the other party is thinking, you can always know it in the future.
And Jian Yao saw that the lights were still on Wang Lin's side, thinking that it was for the assassin again. I can't help but be a little annoyed, I make up for him every day, how do I know that he doesn't care for his body.
Seeing that there was no one at the door, Jian Yao had a fire in her heart, so she broke in directly, "I said Princess, you have been working day and night, but I am the one who works hard!" ”
Jian Yao thought that Wang Lin was the only one in the room, how did she know that there would be other people, and she looked at it.
However, the moment Jiang Shilang saw Jian Yao, he immediately stood up and made a gesture of drawing his sword.
Wang Lin's eyes narrowed, and he held Jiang Shilang with one hand, "Madam, why are you here, and you don't notify the miscellaneous family in advance." ”
Jian Yao could still feel the coldness of the atmosphere, thinking if it was they talking about something confidential, and it happened that she broke in. I can't help but feel a chill on the back of my neck, I shouldn't be killed and killed, I obviously don't know anything.
"That, the concubine made some pastries for your father-in-law, but I didn't expect that my father-in-law happened to have a guest here, so the concubine left first." Jian Yao put down the pastry and wanted to slip away, but was stopped by Wang Lin.
"Since Madame is here, let's stay." Wang Lin paced to Jian Yao, took Jian Yao's hand, and was stunned that Jian Yao couldn't move.
"This is Jiang Shilang, but he is the commander of the forbidden army, he is strong in martial arts, young and promising." Wang Lin slightly hooked the corners of his mouth and looked at Jian Yao.
Jian Yao bowed her head at Jiang Shilang a little embarrassed, "Jiang Shilang, hello." ”
"I've seen Madame." Jiang Shilang made a salute, according to the palace rules, Jiang Shilang's official position is lower than that of nine thousand years old.
"Now that the matter has been said, the general will take his leave first."
Jian Yao looked at Na Jiang Shilang with a bit of a straight look, and he looked upright and serious, but he was actually quite upright and could go out in time.
"Don't be so reckless in the future, you know?" Wang Lin thought that if Jiang Shilang's hand was faster just now, Jian Yao would definitely be injured.
"How do I know you still have guests, it's always up to you alone." Jian Yao vaguely knew that she was almost in danger just now, "Okay, it's not okay to listen to your father-in-law." ”
"What did you just hear?" Wang Lin looked at the pastries on the plate and raised his eyes to Jian Yao.
"I hear everything, I don't see anything, don't think I'm going to kill you, at least I'm ...... I can cook for you. Jian Yao really felt that she didn't have any bargaining chips to spare her life.
"You're afraid of death." Wang Lin snorted coldly with some disdain, and put his hands behind his back, "Don't worry, as long as the miscellaneous family is still in this palace for a day, no one will dare to touch you." ”
