"Did Master Qiao ask you to come?" Lord Lin frowned, and for some reason, he was a little apprehensive.

Pei Xin lifted the curtain of the carriage and stuck out her tongue mischievously when she heard the words: "Are there still a few adults surnamed Qiao in the court?" Of course, it was Qiao Fengqi and Master Qiao who asked me to come. My name is Pei Xin. ”

Lord Lin's eyes widened, and then he nodded knowingly.

It turned out that the one in front of her was not a girl at all, but Qiao Fengqi's fiancée, no wonder she didn't call herself a slave, but called "me" directly. Qiao Fengqi asked his fiancée to come, there must be something important, he didn't hesitate, quickly boarded the carriage, and couldn't wait to say: "Let's go, don't let Qiao Gongzi wait." ”

Pei Xin nodded, with a smile on her face: "Don't be impatient, Lord Qiao said, everything is with him." ”

"Okay, how is he hurting?" Lord Lin calmed down a little before asking.

Pei Xin said: "Master Qiao is fine, the injury looks heavy, but in fact, there is no fear for his life. ”

Master Lin breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself: "That's good, that's good......"

The carriage rolled forward, and soon arrived in front of the Qiao family's compound. Pei Xin jumped out of the car and wanted to reach out to help, but he hurriedly pushed her hand away and whispered, "Don't bother the young lady, the old man can." ”

Pei Xin stood aside with a smile, and when he got out of the car, she took him to the Qiao family's compound. The courtyard is deep, surrounded by woods, and the Qiao family's compound under the cover of the nine-song corridor still seems to have the shadow of the past. This is also the first time that Master Lin has come to Qiao's compound, walking through the familiar flowers and grasses, scenes and things, endless emotions surging in his heart, and his old eyes gradually moistened.

Qiao Fengqi wore a warm mantle of mink and stood under the porch, holding his hands and waiting for Lord Lin to approach.

Lord Lin walked through the path, he couldn't help but step forward to meet a few steps, Lord Lin saw this scene, his eyes were even more moist, and he hurriedly strode forward to stop him: "Young boy, it's cold, don't blow the wind!" ”

Pei Xin, who led the way, suppressed the doubts in her eyes and walked behind Qiao Feng to get up. She was only responsible for bringing people over, but she didn't know that Qiao Fengqi and Master Lin still had such a relationship.

Qiao Fengqi grabbed Lord Lin's wrist, and there was a hint of warmth in his usually cold eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Uncle Lin, it's really sorry to bother you to come over on such a cold day." ”

"In a blink of an eye, the young man has grown so big." Lord Lin was surprised and delighted, his face changed several times in succession, and he hurriedly pressed down the choking in his throat, and followed Qiao Fengqi's strength into the room together. The warm air in the room was agitated, and his stiff face gradually eased, and the flesh on his face was almost wrinkled: "I think back then, when you were just born, you were still a small lump." Your name was still given by me, but unfortunately, it has only been a few days since the name was made, and the Qiao family ......"

"Uncle Lin, your kindness to save our mother and son back then, Feng Qi will never forget!" Qiao Fengqi helped him sit down in his seat, lifted the hem of his clothes, and kowtowed respectfully three times.

Lord Lin nodded with tears in his eyes and praised him for his politeness, and when he got up, he asked, "What about your mother, how are she okay all these years?" ”

"My mother fell into the water and has been bedridden to recuperate all these years, and I have asked someone to tell Uncle Nianglin that she is here, presumably my mother is on the way over." Qiao Fengqi said in a low voice.

Master Lin sighed: "It's hard for her." ”

"Uncle Lin, my father witnessed that incident and was the first to tell Uncle Lin. Now no one who knows about this will survive, Uncle Lin, you escaped in the past, and you can be regarded as narrowly escaping death. You must not enter the palace, let alone mention this matter, otherwise you will definitely be implicated. Qiao Fengqi said and looked at him: "If Uncle Lin wants to help Fengqi, please ask your uncle not to mention the old things." When all the dust settles, do Feng another favor. ”

Lord Lin was sad in his heart, and when he remembered the events of the year, he could only sigh.

Many years ago, he and Qiao Zhenlin were close friends, and after Qiao Zhenlin commanded the Royal Forest Army, when he encountered any troubles, he always liked to bring two jars of wine to talk to him.

That night, Qiao Zhenlin told him what he had seen in the Imperial Garden, and Lord Lin was so frightened that he covered his mouth and warned him that nothing had happened, but he also knew in his heart that it was too difficult to escape the truth, so the two of them made two preparations.

Qiao Zhenlin continued to work as if nothing happened, and at the same time, Lord Lin secretly deployed to find a way to take Mrs. Qiao and the newborn out.

At that time, the two were just glad, fortunately the two didn't know each other, in the eyes of outsiders, the two have always been incompatible, and they don't know their real relationship, so no one will notice Lord Lin's actions, and really let Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Fengqi successfully escape with Mrs. Qiao.

However, for so many years, every time he thought of his best friend dying in Huangquan, his heart was extremely uncomfortable, especially a few years ago, when he heard that Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao, and Qiao Fengqi also died at the hands of Zhao Yilong, his heart became more and more desperate. It wasn't until Qiao Fengqi was thirteen years old that the name of "Reincarnation Zhuge " became louder and louder, spreading all over the world, and Lord Lin's depressed heart was slightly unraveled. Others don't know this name, but he knows it, this is the name he personally gave to Qiao Zhenlin's son, and there is no similarity. Knowing that the son of the deceased is still alive, there is inevitably a glimmer of hope, and one day in the future, friends can also avenge their grievances!

Later, when Qiao Fengqi entered the imperial court, he knew that the day of his friend Zhaoxue was coming!

He's waited long enough for this day!

Lord Lin's eyes were resolute: "You say, what do you want me to do?" ”

"On the ninth day of today's new month, tomorrow evening, Feng Qi wants to invite his uncle into the palace and send the first letter to His Majesty." Qiao Fengqi looked at him and smiled: "I have already written the excerpt, Uncle Lin can copy a copy." ”

As he spoke, he took out the fold in his arms and held it to Lord Lin with both hands.

Lord Lin took it, opened it and looked at it, his body trembled, and he was already very shocked. His face kept shaking, and it took a long time before he said coldly: "Okay, I will definitely hand over the fold to Your Majesty." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Lin!" Qiao Fengqi stood up, shook his head to the end, and kowtowed again.

Qiao's mother also rushed over from the backyard at this time, and as soon as she saw the old man, the eyes of both of them turned red, and Qiao Fengqi retreated, leaving time for the two elders to talk.

Pei Xin stood under the porch and saw him come out, her face was pale, and her round eyes blinked curiously: "What is written in that fold, so magical?" ”

Qiao Fengqi grabbed her hand and said with a faint smile: "It's just some old things, it's just that human words are a sharp weapon for killing." It's okay if you don't know that. Pei Xin, do you know that this mansion was built according to the pattern of the old courtyard of the Qiao family? ”

"And what about the small courtyard we went to last time?" Pei Xin was interested: "The one with the secret passage." ”

"That's not." Qiao Fengqi took her hand and used a little force, took her with him, and walked towards his courtyard. Facing this lively and lovely fiancée, Qiao Fengqi couldn't lift those intrigues, his fingers were clasped tightly, his palms gradually warmed, and he couldn't help but feel good: "Yunge asked you to take care of me, you will be mine in the next few days, be obedient!" ”

"Huh?" Pei Xin was still confused: "Miss didn't say that I belong to you!" ”

The words made Qiao Feng laugh, accidentally touched the wound, and immediately bared his teeth in pain.

Peixin was startled and hurriedly pulled his collar to check on his injuries. Qiao Fengqi only felt that his breath was hot, and he immediately held her fingers that were moving wildly, and his cheeks were hot.

Unconsciously, the two of them were so close that they could feel each other's breath. Her heart was beating faster, her soul seemed to be bewitched, Qiao Fengqi reached out and grabbed her shoulder, and slowly lowered her head......

Emperor Wu gave Qiao Fengqi three days, but it didn't take so long for the imperial capital to set off a storm.

Wei Quan had an old case that had not been revealed before, and it was naturally easy to turn it over. Now that the Zhao Mansion has fallen, as the saying goes, the tree is scattered and there is no one to defend the position of Wei Quan. Many of the officials implicated in the boy's corpse case are Wei Quan's faction, and Wei Quan's reputation is already bad; The attack on Mu Yunge's Anshan was revealed, and the Zhao family secretly had collateral officials to correct Wei Quan, annex land, disregard for human life, usury, and form a party for personal gain, which immediately caused a sensation in the government and the opposition.

At the same time, that night, the water of Jinghu Lake was rolling, and a black stone rolled out of the water, and there was an ancient book covered with moss on it, which read: "The chicken eats the dragon, and the four are in the middle; The dragon broke its claws, intending to seek heaven".

Emperor Wu was uneasy, and immediately summoned Qin Tianjian into the palace to solve his doubts.

Qin Tianjian Qi said: "Your Majesty, there is a saying in ancient times that Si Chenyi refers to women in power, stealing power and messing with government. It can be imagined from this that the chicken eats the dragon, which means that there are women who hinder the dragon, making it difficult for His Majesty's child to continue. The four of them are in the middle of the court...... Your Majesty, the imperial city is divided into east, west, north and south, and the court naturally points to the middle palace. These two sentences are connected, who are they talking about, Your Majesty doesn't need to say more, right? ”

"Then how to interpret the last two sentences?" Emperor Wu frowned.

Qi Dadao: "If the dragon breaks its claws, it has no prestige, which naturally refers to the immorality of the prince." Since he has lost his morality, he is afraid that he will overstep the sky. And this eight-character proverb has a power word, and the minister thinks that it should be directed at King Li. Li Wang ...... Great, when the Inner Court proposed the title, I am afraid that it has already met today's pattern! ”

"One of their mother and son is in chaos in the palace, and the other is rebellious outside the palace, so they had such thoughts!" Emperor Wu pinched his eyebrows, and his face changed.

Lord Qi made persistent efforts and said: "Your Majesty, the heavens have given a foreshadowing, which shows that this matter has already reached the heavens and is angry with the heavens. Although the middle palace is noble, but if it is found that he has committed a heinous crime, he should not be worthy of the world, and he should obey the way of heaven, obey the will of heaven, and punish and punish. Although King Li is the king of the county, but now the people are full of grievances, and there are rebellious thoughts, Your Majesty can not think of the relationship between father and son, and he is indecisive, which not only provokes the people's injustice, but also displeases the heavens! ”

"I see." Emperor Wu closed his eyes tiredly, patted the music on the table in front of him, and asked Lord Qi to retreat.

Lord Qi understood, quickly retreated, and turned around and walked out of the palace gate.

As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, he bumped into Lord Lin in a regular uniform, and everyone was an official in the same dynasty, so they had to shout and ask for warmth.

"My lord is in a hurry, I don't know what is urgent?" Lord Lin asked with a smile.

Lord Qi told him about the strange stone falling from the sky and Emperor Wu summoning him to interrogate.
