Chapter 221: Suspects don't need to
Lin Moyu was stunned, and almost didn't react, isn't the people of the Murong family who can see anyone who wants to see it? Sima Tai actually said that he wanted to take her to meet such a powerful character, which caught her off guard!
She bit her lip, "Sir, I... Isn't it too casual to dress today? I'm afraid it's inappropriate, and it's abrupt to the nobles! ”
In order to let Lin Miaoxin really let down her guard, even if Lin Moyu entered the palace, she was mainly dressed in simple and plain clothes, so that Lin Miaoxin really believed that she was not a threat now.
Sima Tai just smiled, "The eldest lady is very good like this, there is nothing wrong?" ”
Lin Moyu followed anxiously for a while, turning the clean town of Bianjing and coming to a riverside, at this time there was a slender figure standing on the green space by the river, a man in a black robe inlaid with gold silk faintly glowing with fine silk under the refraction of the sun.
Sima Tai made a gesture for Lin Moyu to stand in place and wait, and then went up respectfully and said, "Lord Murong, Lin Moyu has been brought!" ”
Murong Xi turned around slightly, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, he walked slowly towards Lin Moyu with steps, "You are the prime minister's daughter, Miss Lin?" His tone was full of politeness, and he did not disrespect Lin Moyu at all.
Lin Moyu was shocked by this innate aristocratic atmosphere, even if she was not born low and saw countless nobles in the palace, but for the first time, she inexplicably felt an invisible sense of oppression in front of this man.
"I've seen... Lord Murong! At this moment, Lin Moyu was a little nervous, and even a simple sentence was stammering.
The corners of the man's mouth rose slightly, and he said like a humble gentleman, "The eldest lady is too polite, outside, just call me Murong Xian!" ”
"How can this be?" Lin Moyu was a little flustered.
Murong Xi showed a fascinated smile, "Why not?" The eldest lady is the prime minister's daughter, with a noble status and a beautiful person. You can take the time to see the next side, it is a blessing in the next three lives! ”
Lin Moyu looked at Murong Xian's narrowed eyes, the mole under the corner of his eye was even more special, unlike previous men, Murong Xi belonged to the kind of person who was born noble but not arrogant, he was polite and humble in his speech, which was very different from what Lin Moyu imagined before.
Lin Moyu smiled shyly, gradually eliminating the sense of defense in his heart and giving birth to a hint of goodwill.
"Lord Murong, where are these words? This time, Lord Murong has traveled thousands of miles from the Liang Kingdom to Daxun, what can Mo'er help just ask! ”
Even if Lin Moyu has a good impression of Murong Xi, he knows his current situation very well, and with Sima Tai helping her behind his back, it won't be so simple, everything is gathered for profit, isn't it?
An imperceptible smile flashed in Murong Xi's eyes, "Miss, this time I came to Daxun to visit the mountains and rivers, I wonder if Miss Daxun can be a guide in the next place and imprint the best scenery of Daxun on the heart of the next?" ”
Lin Moyu looked at him in some surprise, and then nodded slightly, "Of course you can, it's just that Lord Murong doesn't dislike Mo'er's rough benzene!" ”
Murong Xi smiled slightly, "How could it be?" ”
A few days later, news came from Bianjing, in addition to Fengyang City being attacked by the Turks, even Yingcheng and Hucheng in the east have also suffered heavy losses, not only that, several small cities on the border of Daxun have been harassed by the alliance army, two of which have been occupied by the Patriotic State.
When the news reached Bianjing, it was August 25, exactly ten days after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Only Fengyang City and Luocheng, which were garrisoned by Xiahouyan himself, were still safe and sound, and the rest of the cities were in dire straits.
On this day, he asked people to call Lin Jue to meet in a teahouse in Fengyang City.
Lin Jue was wearing armor and a sword at his waist, and when he saw Xiahou Yan who was sitting leisurely drinking tea with the silver armor removed, Lin Jue walked over with a little boredom and hugged his fists.
"What is the important matter for His Highness to call his subordinates?"
Xiahou Yan said slightly, "Sit!" ”
Lin Jue glanced at him suspiciously, but still sat down.
Xiahou Yan put the teacup in his hand on the table, "General Lin seems to be indifferent to the Turkic attack?" ”
Lin Jue's forehead jumped, and he laughed unnaturally, "How come?" Your Highness must have mistakenly believed other people's rumors, and his subordinates are just newcomers, so they don't know what to do? ”
Xiahou Yan fixed his eyes on Lin Jue's face, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes,
"Really? General Lin's means... This king has already learned in the battle of Los Angeles, and you, a newcomer, are more powerful than the generals under this king! ”
Lin Jue narrowed his dangerous eyes and forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, "My subordinates don't know what His Highness meant?" ”
"Don't know?" Xiahou Yan leaned forward slightly with a smile, his eagle-like eyes staring at his obviously dodging eyes, "Don't think that this king doesn't know who the person who really fanned the flames in front of Lord Tuoba who harassed Los Angeles that time?" This king doesn't want to demolish you, he is giving you a chance to make a contribution! Since you don't know how to cherish...", the words are not finished.
Lin Jue panicked, subconsciously stood up, and looked at Xiahou Yan again, his eyes were full of hostility,
"Why does Your Highness want to slander your subordinates? Is it because his subordinates are the sons of the prime minister? He thought, anyway, Xia Houyan didn't have any evidence that he deliberately did it in order to get angry.
Xiahou Yan raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Lin Jue, "The reason why this king didn't kill you after returning to Bianjing is completely because I think you still have some wisdom, and now it seems that this king has taken a high look at you!" ”
Lin Jue's face had long been calm, and a pair of peach blossom eyes glared at Xiahou Yan angrily, he felt that all this was a conspiracy designed by Xiahou Yan.
"Your Highness... Since you already knew that I had teamed up with the Turkic Tuoba Jue to design you, why did you have to ask me to come to Fengyang City with you? Aren't you afraid that I will betray you again? ”
His tone was furious, even revealing murderous intent.
He really wanted to kill Xiahou Yan for Luo Ling, so he asked Tuoba Jue to cooperate, but at that time, he just wanted Xiahou Yan to die alone, and he didn't really want to betray the country.
It wasn't until later that he understood that even if there was no Xiahou Yan, Luo Ling would not belong to him!
Xiahou Yan looked at him indifferently, "Because your father is the prime minister, even if you don't want to help the king, but the king won't ask the prime minister to be behind the king!" Otherwise, he knows that as soon as he makes a move, you will be the first to die! ”
"Hehe, why do you say it when you know all this? What's in it for you? Lin Jue never understood what Xiahou Yan wanted to do?
The man still sat firmly at the tea table and took a cup of tea and drank tea, "Because now there are not enough generals around this king, so I have to take risks, Lin Jue, this king can ignore what happened last time, but now that the national disaster is at hand, at this time, is it time to put down the grievances?" ”
"Can you still trust me?"
Lin Jue said this sentence with little confidence, and suddenly felt that his previous self was really despicable and shameless, he never expected that Xiahou Yan was much more generous than he imagined, but he became a villain!
"Don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people! You are not for this king, but for Daxun, in order to keep the glory of the Prime Minister's Mansion, otherwise he will suffer in the future, how will the Prime Minister's Mansion be well? ”
After saying this, he stood up and walked calmly towards Lin Jue's side, and he stopped just two steps, "This king has now promoted you to the right general of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, what to do, you know it in your heart!" ”
After saying this, Xiahou Yan left the teahouse without looking back.
In Bianjing, he had just received countless eight-hundred-mile urgent battle reports, and Xiahou Jie looked at it and had a headache.
Except for a few well-defended cities, the people in the rest of the places are living in dire straits.
Regarding the battle report on the front line, Luo Ling also knows a little bit, what Xiahou Jie promised her last time, I don't know what to think about now?
was about to leave the Furong Palace to ask, but Shy Hua hurriedly ran in, "Princess, Prime Minister... The prime minister is here! ”
"What is he here for?" Luo Ling squinted and thought for a moment, then he knew what was the reason?
"The slave maid doesn't look very good at the prime minister's face, maybe she is looking for trouble with the princess!"
Shy Flower looked at Luo Ling with some concern.
Now Luo Ling's position in the palace is unstable, but the prime minister is becoming more and more powerful, so that Bianjing is dominant, and he wants to be the second king of the Great Lord.
"It's okay, I'm still a princess anyway!" Luo Ling walked out slowly, just in time to see Lin Zhentian who was waiting impatiently in the courtyard.
She showed a polite smile, walked over and shouted, "Father-in-law, what kind of wind is blowing you here today?" ”
Lin Zhentian turned around and raised his eyebrows, "Princess, the minister can't afford your father-in-law, the minister came today to ask the princess for a thing back that day!" ”
Luo Ling pretended not to understand, "What does the righteous father mean...?"
Lin Zhentian glanced at her coldly, "Of course it's the ancestral dagger of the Lin family, Princess Luoling, if you know the image, let's hand over the things!" ”
"Father-in-law, how can you call this princess?" Luo Ling showed an anxious expression, which completely confused Lin Zhentian.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Zhentian also looked at her anxiously, he knew that this Luo Ling had always loved to play tricks, maybe what kind of excuse he wanted to find this time?
Luo Ling looked at him apologetically, "On the way to Turkic peace, this princess lost it in Sunset Mountain!"
"What? How could Princess Lorling leave it on Sunset Mountain? Huh! ”
Lin Zhentian flicked his sleeves, if it weren't for Luo Ling being the princess, he really couldn't help but slap her.
He told her to take good care of it, but when he asked for it later, Luo Ling refused to return it, and now he said that it fell on Sunset Mountain?
"Father-in-law, the situation was critical and chaotic at that time..."Luo Ling was about to describe the scene at that time, but was roared by Lin Zhentian.
"Enough! Princess Lorraine, you're going to pay for it! Do you know what you've caused your nature to lose? ”
Lin Zhentian wanted to speak and stopped, his angry beard trembled, and he almost vomited blood.
