Chapter 81: Lin Changhai
"Lin Changhai is Chu Qingyan's person."
Li Yuan, who didn't know about the changes in Kyoto at the moment, was talking to Liu Yanxin of the Lieyan Sect.
Bo Lin Changhai, the lord of the capital, is really him!
Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, staring at Liu Yanxin who was smiling and moaning opposite.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, do you remember the case of the theft of the granary, Liu Lei's sudden death in prison, it was Lin Changhai who took Chu Qingyan to extinguish the mouth."
Liu Yanxin's enchanting face, a faint smile, a hand supporting his chin, looking at Li Yuan's slightly wrinkled expression with interest, and said in a seductive tone:
"Your Highness, the little woman came to help get rid of your long-standing heart disease, I don't know if it's sincere enough."
"What do you Flame Sect want?" Li Yuan didn't believe that Liu Yanxin told him this news for no reason.
"Our Lieyan Sect dealing with the second lady of the Zhenguo Mansion and helping His Royal Highness the King of Chu are two different things, so they can't be confused."
Liu Yanxin stroked a strand of hair with her green and jade fingers, tilted her head and squinted, and answered the question.
"Then thank you Miss Liu for your kindness."
Li Yuan thanked him, his mind turned, he didn't know what he thought, and showed a cordial smile to Liu Yanxin:
"I don't know why, this king and Miss Liu hit it off at first sight, and there was a reluctant request, I don't know if Miss Liu can agree."
"Oh? Your Highness, please speak. Liu Yanxin's eyes widened slightly, revealing an expectant look.
"This king has been in the capital city for a long time, and he has not traveled to the counties.
Three days later, the king plans to leave the capital city and go to the counties to have a visit, I don't know if Miss Liu is willing to go with him! ”
When Liu Yanxin heard Li Yuan's invitation, her eyes flashed with surprise:
"Okay, the little girl also wants to see the scenery of Lingyang Mansion."
"Okay, with a beautiful woman by your side, you won't be bored along the way."
Li Yuan smiled with joy.
The two saw each other happily, and laughter sounded from time to time in the Lake Center Pavilion.
…………
An hour later, Li Yuan watched Liu Yanxin leave, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally sent her away.
It's time to get down to business.
"Xiao Yezi, you now send someone to the Lin family to invite Lin Changhai to come over."
"Whoa!"
Xiao Yezi saw Li Yuan's serious expression and left quickly.
Another hour passed, and dusk fell, and it grew dark.
In the Huxin Pavilion, Li Yuan quietly waited for Lin Changhai's arrival.
Lin Changhai was dressed in an official uniform with a serious expression, and finally came to Li Yuan.
"Weichen, meet Your Highness!"
"Lord Lin Bo is exempt from courtesy, take a seat."
Li Yuan smiled and motioned for Lin Changhai to sit on the stone bench.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Lin Changhai saw that there was only one King of Chu in the Huxin Pavilion, and he felt a little nervous in his heart, and during this time, he could feel that the people of King Chu had been continuing to investigate the theft of the granary.
From his original composure to his heart beating now, he knew that as the King of Chu took control of the capital, the sooner he would be exposed, and the time waiting for exposure was extremely torturous.
"Master Lin has worked hard this time."
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's within the minister's duty."
Seeing the teacup handed over by Li Yuan, Lin Changhai hurriedly caught it with both hands.
Li Yuan took a sip and looked at Lin Changhai's cautious expression through the teacup.
Lin Changhai saw King Chu drinking tea, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, held the tea in both hands and handed it to his mouth, and suddenly heard Li Yuan speak.
"Master Lin Bo, how many years have you been on the job?"
Lin Changhai hurriedly put down the teacup and said:
"Report to Your Highness, Weichen has been in the position of Lord Bo for more than ten years."
"It's been more than ten years, and Master Lin Bo has worked hard."
Li Yuan saw Lin Changhai put down the teacup, raised his palm slightly, and signaled that Lin Changhai did not have to be serious and continued to drink tea.
Lin Changhai nodded, just handed the tea to his mouth, and when he heard Li Yuan's words, his hand shook, and the hot tea fell out.
"More than 20 years ago, General Zhenguo passed by Lingzhou, I don't know if Lin Zhubo witnessed the demeanor of the general?"
The hot tea was poured on his clothes, Lin Changhai didn't feel it at all, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Li Yuan.
He understood what Li Yuan meant, and finally came, for some reason Lin Changhai was really relieved in his heart.
Li Yuan ignored Lin Changhai's expression, picked up the teapot and got up in front of him, and filled the teacup he was holding in both hands!
"This king has checked, for more than ten years, the forest master Bo has been conscientious, conscientious, and has made outstanding contributions to Lingyang Mansion.
In the past ten years, only a while ago something went wrong, 100,000 stones were stolen from the Xicheng granary, and Liu Lei, the grain officer at that time, suddenly committed suicide in fear of crime.
This incident impressed the king! ”
Lin Changhai trembled, looked at the teacup in his hand full of tea, immediately got up, lowered his head and said loudly:
"The granary was stolen, as the chief is thin, and he is seriously derelict in his duties, and he is ashamed of his trust in His Highness and the people!
Wechen is willing to resign from his official position! ”
Li Yuan's expression was a little heartbroken, and he closed his eyes slightly:
"Lin Zhu Bo has been in office for many years, and there is no merit and hard work, if this king takes this opportunity to let you return to your hometown, it seems that this king is too unkind."
Lin Changhai's heart moved, looked down at Li Yuan, and was silent.
Li Yuan swam a few steps, looked at the swimming fish competing for food in the lake, and continued:
"Lin Zhu Bo, now Huiyang County is a little chaotic, Lu Changming just went to Huiyang County, I am afraid that I have the heart and lack of strength, why don't Lin Zhu Bo also go to help Lu Changming govern Huiyang County, you two colleagues have been colleagues for many years, and it is easy and comfortable to cooperate."
Li Yuan turned around abruptly and looked at Lin Changhai with blazing eyes.
"That's it, the princess is in the east of the city, Lord Lin, how about you go to the west of the city?"
Lin Changhai's eyes widened, he raised his head suddenly, met Li Yuan's smiling eyes, and finally bowed his head and saluted, and said in a low tone:
"Thank you, King Chu!"
Holding the overflowing teacup in both hands, drink it all!
"Okay, with the city lord of Lin here, this king is at ease."
"The officials who belong to the Lin family in the mansion, this king will not treat them badly, in order to reunite your Lin family, this king will transfer them to the five cities in the east of Huiyang County one by one, how about it?"
Li Yuan smiled and poured Lin Changhai a cup of tea again.
Lin Changhai slowly closed his eyes and drank the tea again:
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"
…………
After Lin Changhai left in despair, Xun Yu came slowly.
"Your Highness, this is the list of officials of the Lu family and the Lin family in the capital city, and there are now a total of fifty-eight official vacancies."
"Then fill in all the people who have observed it before and who are credible."
Li Yuan waved his hand, the Lu family and the Lin family left, which family in the capital city dared to take the lead.
In addition to these civil officials, their two families also have clansmen in the protectors, and they are also transferred out.
Then let Yuwen Chengdu and Fan Jianqiang control these military positions.
Li Yuan looked up at the sun that had set, the sky had become dark, but the moon had slowly risen, although it was not as radiant as the sun, it was also the most dazzling existence in the night sky.
The breeze blew across the lake, the pavilion in the center of the lake was quiet, and the lake reflected Li Yuan's tall and handsome but lonely figure.
The two shadows on the lake looked at each other for a long time, and finally they both smiled indifferently, and their eyes were clear and bright.
