Chapter 16: It seems to have been calculated
"So what now? Another dead end? Ling Xi sat down on the chair, sat on his knees with a sad face, and buried his face in his clothes: "So many people, where can they get food?" ”
"Lonely thoughts, borrow!"
"Borrow? Who to borrow from? Ling Xi wilted: "That's a lot of grain, you haven't seen that big granary." ”
[You are the supreme in the world, it is estimated that you can't even distinguish between a pound and a hundred pounds, do you know what the concept of astronomical numbers is? ] 】
"Lone is not as straw as you think," Chen Qianzhi knocked on the corner of the table: "Lone has already thought of a way, but I just need your help." ”
He asked Grandpa An to bring a wooden box from the bookshelf and open it.
Inside was a bunch of letters with the seal of the royal jade seal and dozens of official seals of all sizes.
Ling Xi was stunned: "What is this?"
"Official position."
“……”
"There are some official positions set up in the lonely void, all of which are vacant positions and have no real power, but for those businessmen and people, what they lack is such a false name without real power to consolidate their family status."
Ling Xi suddenly said: "You want to sell your official!" ”
"Don't say it so ugly," Chen Qianzhi obviously sank his pupils: "Lone and them, but each takes what he needs!" ”
"Clever!!" Ling Xi raised his hands and praised: "Agriculture, industry, business, learning, soldiers!" The status of the businessmen is not high, they have money but no power, and they can only study and take the road of official careers to improve the lintel. ”
Chen Qianzhi nodded: "But studying is too hard, and talent is also needed, even if the family of merchants is rich enough to rival the country, it may not be possible to produce an official's talent in a hundred years, so buying an official is the easiest and most effective way to change the family." ”
Ling Xi came to the spirit: "What do you want me to do?" ”
"Gu can't leave this palace city, and there is no credible person who can use it, only you can help Gu and borrow food for Gu out of the city."
Tatsu Qianzhi opened the drawer and took out a cyan turquoise-embedded token, with a black-gold dragon coiled on the back.
"This is the identity token of the imperial history of the royal family, hold it, like a lonely relative!"
"Oh, that's what Shang Fang's sword means, right?" Ling Xi excitedly picked up the token: "If you hold it, will you be able to cut it first?" ”
"You can understand it this way."
"That's cool!"
[This thing looks like it's made of jade, and it's a royal thing, so it should be worth a lot of money, if you sell it......]
Suddenly, she looked up in embarrassment.
"I'm just thinking about it, and I don't really want to sell."
He put down the token in a daze, and his toes were about to pick out the Demon Immortal Castle.
[I'm going to die, why am I starting to think nonsense again? 】
[It's over, I'm still thinking about it!] 】
[But my braincase is not under my control! 】
[I'm not an idiot, I always want to write something in my head]
[No matter, so be it! 】
【……】
Glancing at Jun Shuzhu, he found that he didn't seem to hear his complaints, but was rummaging through a pile of files.
In order to avoid embarrassment and to stop thinking nonsense, Ling Xi rubbed his stomach exaggeratedly: "Ah Weng, do you have anything to eat here?" I am hungry. ”
Grandpa An was stunned.
Ah Weng has always been His Majesty's name for him, and it is also the emotional sustenance between them, but I didn't expect Ling Xi to call him like this.
But he quickly smiled calmly: "There are a few pieces of sugar cake here, I don't know if it suits the girl's taste." ”
Ling Xi has immunity to the pastries in the palace, as long as he can eat them, he doesn't want to taste them.
She tasted a piece and was unsurprisingly disappointed: "It looks good, but it tastes good, bad reviews!" ”
Chen Qianzhi handed her a dossier: "You have to find this person and find a way to let him accompany you to borrow food, with this person's protection, you should be safe and sound along the way." ”
Ling Xi bit the sugar cake, opened the file, and asked vaguely, "Who is it?" ”
"He is a prisoner of the imperial court, a prisoner on death row, and he is imprisoned in Tianzi Prison."
Ling Xi's whole person is not good.
[Death row prisoner? 】
[You let me use a death row inmate? 】
[Did he protect me, or did he cut me?] 】
Chen Qianzhi pointed to the file: "Since Lone chose him for you, there is naturally a reason to choose him, his wife and children are in exile, and using his wife and children can restrain him for our use." ”
[Death row prisoners in Tianzi Prison? 】
[Wife and children exiled? 】
[Wouldn't it?] 】
Ling Xi stumbled and asked, "He, is his surname Qian?" ”
Chen Qianzhen slightly: "His name is Qianxizhong...... How do you know it's him? ”
Rosecake fell to the ground.
"Of course I know ......"
[Because of the person who cut off our heads...... That's him!! 】
Tatsuchizu: "......"
Ling Xi suddenly thought of something, and suddenly picked it up: "It's over, it's over...... The reason why Qian Xizhong killed us was because his wife and children died in exile, and he was resentful, so he killed us......"
In the original author's setting, the force value of the hidden loyalty can be said to be the ceiling of the whole text.
He studied at the age of three, learned martial arts at the age of five, became a martial champion at the age of sixteen, but at the age of twenty-seven, he was imprisoned for life by a tyrant for unjust, false and wrongful convictions, and his wife and children were exiled to death.
But Qian Xizhong used the turtle breath Dafa to fake his death and get out, looking for the whereabouts of his wife and children incognito, and when he found it, he happened to see his wife and children sick and dead, so he blackened and directly killed the tyrant and her.
Thinking of this, Ling Xi felt that something was wrong again: "If you calculate the timeline, he should have escaped from the Tianzi Prison by now, and he is about to see his wife and children, are you sure he is still in the Heavenly Prison?" ”
"Awen!"
"Your Majesty!"
"You go to the Tianzi Prison to check the life and death of Qian Xizhong."
Father-in-law An soon returned, bringing back the results that made the tyrant and Ling Xi's scalp tingle.
"Miss Ling is right, about half a year ago, Qian Xizhong died of illness and was buried, and the matter was also reported to the prison department at that time, but I don't know if it was reported or not."
Ling Xi opened the file: "Where are his wife and children?" If we can find them before the hidden loyalty, save them, and resolve the hatred and resentment of the hidden loyalty, there may still be room for maneuver. ”
The file of the hidden loyalist was collected by the tyrant himself in the library, and no one knew where the hidden loyalist wife and children were.
When Ling Xi saw the address, he couldn't help but be stunned: "This is ...... Exile? ”
The exile she understood to be, if not 3,000 miles, had to be a barbaric place 1,500 miles away.
But the wife and children of the hidden faithful are all in the capital.
She suddenly understood something: "Your Majesty, you have always cultivated Qianxian Zhong as a potential stock, right?" That's why he kept his wife and children for future use? ”
Chen Qianzhi didn't explain, and said indifferently: "You can't show up in this matter, but I will send someone who knows about the palace and the court to accompany you, Ling Xi, the heads of the two of us will be handed over to you." ”
I don't know why, at this moment, Ling Xi inexplicably felt like he had been calculated by the tyrant.
It's an indescribable intuition.
It seems that the things he did and the words he said before were just to fool her into helping him sell his official position and borrow food!!
[This tyrant is a fox, right? I always feel that he is cunning and cunning, and he has 800 hearts. 】
"The lone dragon, the dragon of the true dragon of the Son of Heaven!"
