Chapter 541: Unloading the mill and killing the donkey is different
Lu Fengbai, Ye Dangting and others, who were still discussing in the main hall, naturally knew about the summons earlier than Lin Manliu, and they were consistent with Mo Wuyan's arrangement, so that Ye Chengzhu personally took Lin Manliu into the imperial city.
After the two of them entered the carriage together, Ye Chengzhu glanced at Lin Manliu meaningfully.
He asked out loud: "Little Brother Lin, do you have any guesses in your heart about the purpose of this revisit to the Imperial City?" ”
Lin Manliu replied: "As long as Jun Feiyu didn't intend to arrange it, if he just discussed some things with Yan Lin, most of the time it would be fine..."
After Ye Chengzhu heard this, he raised his hand to lift the corner of the car curtain, so that the laughter on both sides of the street poured into the carriage, accompanied by a chill in winter.
At this time, he was like a rich boy on a trip, watching the people on the street with a leisurely expression.
Ye Chengzhu said leisurely: "When you were in your hometown in the early years, did you ever see those poor families after the autumn harvest? ”
Lin Manliu nodded silently, he didn't need to look at other people's homes, his own family was the poor family in Ye Chengzhu's mouth.
Ye Chengzhu asked out loud: "Then do you know that if a farmer can't afford to support his livestock, such as a donkey that has just finished grinding... What will they do? Hold on until next autumn, and let the loyal old donkey continue to grind? ”
Lin Manliu was stunned for a moment and did not reply.
At this moment, both of them have an answer in their hearts...
Unload the mill and kill the donkey!
Ye Chengzhu slammed his mouth at the scenery outside the curtain, and motioned for Lin Manliu to follow him to look at it.
"These days... Every house is full of lights and joyful scenes, do you think it is lively? ”
"I think... Not always so! ”
"Some people actually look forward to their own Qing official and old man dying in the hell, no matter which side wins, they can get a good reputation..."
If the three armies are defeated and the demon queen returns victorious, they can kill their relatives in righteousness and criticize their own masters, showing their loyalty and sincerity.
In this way, in the pattern of a hundred wastes waiting to be revived, as the former gate valve, they will not have a chance to turn over?
Now that the three armies have won a complete victory, the demon queen ambushed the Great Zhen Palace, and as a result, his master had already died in the dark prison with hatred, and it was best to criticize a masterpiece on the wall.
Even if you fight to pieces, you are not afraid, you want to return your bare courage and innocence to heaven and earth...
Words like these, the more words in their minds, the better!
Even if their master doesn't have charcoal next to him, they will try their best to get someone to send one in, so that their master can express his "heart".
As long as these are all prepared, they can sing praises to their masters, set up an archway in front of the old house, and cry in front of the new house...
As long as you earn enough fame from a dead person, the future career will be a smooth and stable road!
Ye Chengzhu saw that Lin Manliu did not react, so he had to continue to speak softly.
"Barren as Fengcheng in southern Xinjiang, the farmers are so... Rich as the western capital of Gyeonggi, there are also people who suck human blood... Lin Manliu, even if you think you are close to someone, you need to beware of one or two! ”
After a long time, Lin Manliu finally responded.
"The kid was taught!"
After Ye Chengzhu heard this, he lowered the curtain of the car in front of him, and the wind and snow on both sides of the street were blocked.
......
The speed of the carriage was neither fast nor slow, and there was an evil warrant to open the way, and Lin Manliu and Ye Chengzhu quickly entered the imperial city.
Led by a former father-in-law, the two of them were ushered outside the imperial study.
Even Ye Chengzhu was a little stunned by this arrangement, even if this King of Chu was subject to Xiao Baoli and Jun Feiyu, he shouldn't have used these pomp and circumstance so early.
Taking advantage of the gap when the father-in-law entered the house to report, Ye Chengzhu whispered a reminder to Lin Manliu.
"You also need to remember that at this moment, in addition to the identity of the King of Chu, the people in the house also have the title of a prison country..."
Lin Manliu whispered softly, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Jiang Yanlin walking out of the imperial study with his father-in-law.
When the latter saw that Lin Manliu was really here, his face suddenly showed a look of joy that could not be concealed.
Jiang Yanlin didn't care about the opinions of the eunuchs around him, walked quickly towards his eldest brother Liu, and grabbed the other party's arm when he raised his hand.
"Brother Liu, come with me!"
Lin Manliu lowered his voice and cautiously reminded him.
"Yanlin, let's pay attention..."
Jiang Yanlin shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, these fathers-in-law are the first time I entered the palace, and my mother has already done something for me, and they can all be trusted!" ”
As he spoke, he nodded to the eunuchs beside him, and the eunuchs behind Jiang Yan's eyes all saluted with a gentle and respectful face.
Even the father-in-law in front of the emperor was also kind-hearted, Lin Manliu was a little relieved about this, and let Jiang Yanlin drag him into the imperial study.
Ye Chengzhu stopped in place, he watched the two of them disappear at the entrance of the imperial study, and then moved his gaze to the face of the father-in-law in front of the palace.
The father-in-law also noticed his eyes, and immediately spoke.
"What is Lord Qingzhu doing when he looks at our family? Could it be that our family's clothes are not decent enough today? ”
Ye Chengzhu didn't respond, just shook his head to signal that it was okay, and he quietly began to wait for the discussion in the imperial study with his hands behind his back.
Seeing this, the father-in-law of the imperial front made a look at the eunuchs around him, and then turned around and left.
"If Lord Qingzhu wants to wait outside the door all the time, you can ask someone to find a chair to rest, and our family will deal with other matters first..."
Ye Chengzhu tilted his head slightly, looking at the vermilion robe that was gradually moving away.
"Ye still has three legs, so he can naturally stand longer... Let the father-in-law bother! ”
When the father-in-law heard this, the whole person almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, there was a little eunuch by his side, so that he did not embarrass in front of outsiders.
He turned his head and stared at Ye Chengzhu's figure, gritting his teeth as if he wanted to say some foul words.
Ye Chengzhu's head tilted a little again, and he happened to look at the former father-in-law.
"Ye can't get away now, so he won't send his father-in-law! Walk slowly! ”
"Ye Chengzhu... You wait for our family! ”
The father-in-law who put down the cruel words shook his sleeves, and all the little eunuchs with red lips and white teeth beside him retreated, and strode away alone.
The noise outside the door of the imperial study did not affect the two people in the room in the slightest.
Jiang Yan was in a very good mood at the moment, he first led his eldest brother Liu to sit down in front of a Taishi chair, and then picked up a hot tea from the table and handed it to the other party.
Lin Manliu looked at the strange behavior of the person in front of him, and felt a little puzzled and confused in his heart.
What's wrong with Yanlin... Why is it so much different?
Jiang Yanlin stuffed the hot tea to Lin Manliu, and the smile on his face was like a child playing on the street.
He said excitedly: "Brother Liu! I'm done! I'm finally done! I did what I promised you! ”
Lin Manliu's face still showed a trace of surprise after all.
Jiang Yanlin raised his hand and swept around the entire imperial study, and his face became even more joyful.
As he took a step forward, his tone changed, becoming confident and proud.
"On that day, when the bamboo forest outside the city was righteous, Yan Lin said to Brother Liu that he would share what he got with Brother Liu when he saw each other in the future, and appreciate these glory and wealth!"
Lin Manliu didn't want Jiang Yanlin to be immersed in the wealth in front of him, so he had to break his beautiful illusions.
"Yan Lin, you know the danger in this imperial city best, but it is only a temporary stability at the moment, and it will not last long... Give me some more time, and I'll get you out of here!" ”
Lin Manliu wanted to continue to persuade, but was stopped by Jiang Yanlin raising his hand.
The latter sighed and said: "Brother Liu, what you said is dangerous, Yan Lin understands and knows it!" As for the future, Yan Lin has already planned, you don't have to worry! ”
As soon as these words came out, Lin Manliu understood that Jiang Yanlin at this moment would not listen to what he said.
Just as Lin Manliu sighed, Jiang Yan knocked on the table in front of him, and the bookshelf behind the two suddenly moved.
Click-
The bookshelves, which are lined with famous calligraphy and curios, are divided into two and begin to move slowly to the sides.
Lin Manliu followed the sound and saw that behind the bookshelf was a small dark compartment, which could probably accommodate two people to enter it.
Jiang Yanlin said with a smile: "Brother Liu, come with me!" ”
After Lin Manliu hummed briefly, he followed Jiang Yanlin and walked in the direction of the dark grid.
When the two approached, Lin Manliu saw the things clearly, which were a celadon vial, a pitch-black wooden box, and a book with a yellowed cover.
Jiang Yanlin first picked up the wooden box, and without waiting for Lin Manliu to stop it, he opened the wooden box with his bare hands.
There was nothing in the wooden box, but looking at the size of the depression in it, Lin Manliu remembered for no reason... The silver bell on Su Ji's wrist.
Jiang Yanlin grinned and looked at his eldest brother Liu with a happy expression.
He said out loud: "Brother Liu, this is the wooden box containing that pair of silver bells, I saw Queen Nasu use it when I was in the palace before, and it can drive the emperor to be the son of heaven..."
When Lin Manliu heard this, he immediately reached out and pressed Jiang Yanlin's shoulder.
"Yan Lin, don't learn from Queen Nasu! You didn't see what happened to her! ”
Jiang Yanlin casually put the wooden box back in its place, and looked at his brother Liu helplessly.
He explained aloud: "Brother Liu, don't worry, Yan Lin will definitely not learn from Queen Su, and besides, that silver bell alone can't be driven..."
Jiang Yanlin said as he pointed to another object, a celadon vial with a faint medicinal fragrance.
Lin Manliu then paid attention to the celadon vial, and the moment he smelled the medicinal fragrance, Lin Manliu had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
He had only smelled this special medicinal fragrance not long ago!
The water pavilion in the lake behind the Great Zhen Palace, the black box thrown by Xie Gan!
After the incident in the Imperial City was over, Yue Hanzhi also mentioned to him again that these "leftovers" hidden in the cracks of the box...
With only those fine powders, simply mixed with water and given to the poisoned person, the kung fu of half a pillar of incense can force the toxin out of the wound, and even the speed of the wound scabbing is much faster than that of ordinary injuries.
Lin Manliu seemed to have thought of something, Jiang Yanlin looked at his expression, and there was a faint golden light flashing in his eyes.
The former asked aloud: "In that vial, is the ancient medicine you said before?" ”
The latter immediately responded: "Hmm! However, this celadon vial is already empty, otherwise it can be taken directly to Master Ye Zhuang to try! Maybe we can really continue to connect the veins..."
At this moment, Lin Manliu was not annoyed by the news that the celadon bottle was empty, because he had already vaguely guessed Jiang Yanlin's thoughts.
During his trip to southern Xinjiang, Jiang Yanlin once said that this ancient medicine was a funeral gift sent to the Yanyang Emperor's mausoleum, and at this moment, he took out an empty bottle that appeared in the imperial study, obviously for a reason.
Lin Manliu then looked at the last thing, the book with a yellowed cover.
Jiang Yanlin's face was even more joyful, and he reached out and grabbed the book.
Lin Manliu vaguely saw the name of the book between his fingers.
"Heavenly Craft"!
The old liar has mentioned this book before, and it is dedicated to some of the most ingenious equipment, among which the most powerful vehicles are used in battlefield attacks.
However, according to the old liar, just the collection of instruments for more than 100 years before and after the Yanyang Dynasty is enough to produce as many as twenty-four volumes.
The yellowed cover of the book in front of me is one of the volumes?
Jiang Yanlin looked at the puzzlement on Lin Manliu's face, and then explained to him while flipping through the book.
"This volume is the twenty-fifth volume of "Heavenly Craft", and Yan Lin has only known about it recently, and the entire Yanyang is only this volume!"
When he finished speaking, he put it on the page where he had made a footnote.
Jiang Yanlin pushed the book in front of Lin Manliu, and a passage of text outlined by him with a red pen was clearly visible.
It took a total of 17 years to make 4,090 copies from the third year of the Emperor's reign, all of which were included in the Imperial Tomb......
Jiang Yanlin said loudly: "Danger is the name of this ancient medicine, even if it has been consumed over the years, these more than 4,000 copies... Maybe there are many more in the Imperial Tombs! ”
Lin Manliu raised his hand and patted Jiang Yanlin's shoulder, ready to dispel his ridiculous thoughts.
"Yanlin, I know your mind... But this Imperial Tomb is not something we can enter if we want to, even if you are..."
Without waiting for Lin Manliu to finish speaking, Jiang Yanlin held his arm, and his face looked extremely excited.
"Brother Liu! We only need to send a message to the outside world, saying that the defeated Dark Night Rider fled to the vicinity of the imperial tomb, and in order to protect the thieves from disturbing the emperor's sleep, we sent people to encircle and suppress..."
When Lin Manliu heard this, his body stiffened slightly, and he looked at his peers in front of him in disbelief.
Jiang Yanlin's words did not end there, he looked at the entrance of the imperial study with an indifferent face.
"At that time, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, you can let Li Yanhe, Guan Xiao, and other generals who are trusted by Brother Liu lead the troops to search in the imperial tomb at will, and Brother Liu can take this dangerous mountain out of the imperial tomb!"
At this moment, Lin Manliu only felt that Jiang Yanlin in front of him had changed into a different person, and he had become a little strange and unpredictable.
