Chapter 69: The Events of the Year
"What cup of two hundred taels?"
Lao Zhang was completely blown up, staring at the shattered skin on the ground with some astonishment.
Lin Niannian simply added another fire: "If I'm not mistaken, it is an antique from the first dynasty, and there are only three sets in the entire Central Plains!" β
"You broke this one, and you can't get that one."
This time it was Lao Zhang's turn to sweat profusely, he looked at the debris on the ground, and then at Lin Niannian, who was full of pity, and suddenly said humbly:
"Does that mean I'm going to have to run too?"
Two hundred taels of cups, he can't afford to pay for them, and so is this Lord Qincha, what are you doing with such an expensive cup?
"Lao Zhang, for the sake of you being my colleague, I will carry this black pot for you." Lin Nian raised his head year by year, looking like he was going to be heroic and righteous, "Anyway, one hundred taels is also a compensation, and three hundred taels is also a compensation, so it's better for you to push these things on me." β
"When the time comes, I will run away directly on horseback, and it is impossible for Lord Qincha to really send officers and soldiers to chase me!"
"Don't worry, Lao Zhang, I will never betray you!"
Lao Zhang was moved by her "heartfelt" remarks: "Xiaolin, you are really my good brother!" β
He stepped forward and patted Lin Niannian's shoulder vigorously, with such force that the wound on Lin Niannian's body almost broke open.
"No thanks!" Resisting the urge to vomit blood, Lin Niannian smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, Xiaolin, I'll ask you now. When are you leaving, this horse is ready for you! β
Lao Zhang was resolute and played a package ticket.
"Lao Zhang, you can go quickly." Lin Nian always smiled and didn't feel anything wrong at all.
Just do it, after the two reached an agreement, Lao Zhang left non-stop.
And after Lin Niannian saw the figure disappear in front of him, the strength in his body suddenly relaxed, and he lay back on the bed, staring at the position above his head. There is no verve.
She really wanted to leave Fengcheng, but she didn't go for a few months, and the murderer of her father had not been caught, so she was unwilling to die like this.
And Yan Chenghuai...
Lin Niannian's eyes flashed, in her opinion, this person was very dangerous, and her mind reading skills couldn't guess the other party's thoughts.
On the contrary, it is himself, every time he stands in front of him, there is always a feeling that he will be seen through.
Following him to the capital, she couldn't even think about it.
β¦
The other end.
Linshui Xuan, Yan Chenghuai sat on the long court, feeling a little chill on his body for no reason.
His eyes were lowered, and his gaze was always on the brocade box in his hand.
This was searched by him and Lin Niannian from Wang Zhihui's house before.
The top position, as Lin Niannian said, should be holding something, but the thing has been taken away, and only the letters inside remain.
The content of the letter, Yan Chenghuai has roughly read it.
It's all familiar clichΓ©s, and the content in them is similar to what I have mastered, and it's useless.
Only the confession, Yan Chenghuai raised his fingers slightly, and put the thing back in front of him.
There was something strange about the ink marks on it, as if something had been smudged.
Although he is ancient, some words have a hint of ghosting, and if you don't look closely, you can't find it.
frowned, and his cold eyes swept it carefully.
Yan Chenghuai finally brought the thing close to the incense on the side of the road, and it was ignited in an instant.
Mutilation is like a flying butterfly wing.
Yan Chenghuai's brows furrowed even tighter, and it wasn't until the green smoke receded that the remaining part was revealed.
The ashes were removed, and the remaining handwriting came into view.
A hint of surprise appeared on Qingjun's face, and then it became more and more solemn.
Until the end, the green tendons on Yan Chenghuai's hands appeared, and it was obvious that he had been forbearance for a long time.
"Chen Qi!" Yan Chenghuai couldn't bear it anymore, and a black shadow suddenly appeared, kneeling on the ground.
"Master!"
He said that today he had brought half a silver mask, and the silver helmet was cold in the light.
Yan Chenghuai didn't speak, but just put the thing in front of Chen Qi.
The latter was surprised at first, and when he finished reading the handwriting, his eyes were red.
There was a scar as ugly as a centipede on his left wrist that snaked to his entire shoulder, and now it was obscured by the suit, and only a faint point of the wrist was visible.
The scar was the result of a battle he had received years earlier, and his only brother had died on the battlefield in that battle.
And he survived, and now the scar doesn't hurt anymore.
However, after reading the handwriting on it, the whole person trembled uncontrollably.
ββ¦ I thought it was the great general who surrendered to the country. After a long time, Chen Qicai muttered, tears rolling down and smashing to the ground, his eyes were scarlet.
It really describes the whole process of the battle at the border pass.
In addition, there are some scandals that have only seen the light of day until now.
"The first emperor handed over the battle of the border pass to His Royal Highness, but I didn't expect it to be wrong."
Yan Chenghuai looked into the distance, his eyes were cold.
The defeat of the border pass that year was inseparable from the three princes.
The Lin family has been a general for generations, and because he angered the brows of the three princes, he was put in small shoes.
First of all, there was a shortage of food, and the troops led by Lin Mukun fought desperately to temporarily push back the people.
After many urgings, the grain was finally delivered, but most of what was delivered was gravel.
At the same time, the third prince was also belated, and came to the border with his subordinates.
The prince is in charge, and the Lin family army has a backbone.
Lin Mukun wanted to sue someone for swallowing the army's salary before, but before he could hand over the fold, the enemy counterattacked, and due to the lack of food and grass, this battle was difficult.
The three princes are cunning by nature, and they have long seen that the Lin family is not pleasing to the eye, and they actually fire with the wolf clan, hook up with the chain, and deliberately use tricks to make Lin Mukun lose a few cities in a row.
In the end, the soldiers came to the city and made a killing move.
The wolf clan and the prince conspired, Lin Mukun could not avoid it, defended the city, and finally fell.
And the three princes directly charged him with "rebellion", and his subordinates took over the scattered Lin family army that was washed down by the wolf soldiers.
The tips of Chen Qi's fingers oozed red, and the green tendons on his neck burst out, and he said for a long time:
"When I escaped death, my subordinates wanted to get rid of the Lin family as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that they would fall for the tricks of others."
"Now that my subordinates have woken up, the Lin family is long gone."
He was a witness to the battle of the border pass back then, and now he is the secret guard under Yan Chenghuai, and the truth has finally appeared in front of him after many years.
Chen Qi only felt that it was outrageously wrong back then.
ββ¦ At that time, the last girl of the Lin family listened to the announcement in the court, and her subordinates were eager to eat her flesh raw, but now it seems that it is I who should be imprisoned..."
"General Lin, he was wronged..."
Chen Qi finally raised his eyes, sighed, and gritted his teeth: "I... Not worthy of being the Lin family's army! β
