Chapter 93: Old Friends Meet
On this day, Shen Lingxi was wandering boredly on the streets of Jianye, and in a few days it would be the day when she would go to study at the Xuanwu Kingdom Royal Academy, so Shen Lingxi decided to hurry up and come out to play.
While strolling on the road, Shen Lingxi suddenly saw a familiar figure at the corner of the street, and looked at it, isn't this the cheap girl Shen Ziyan and the Lin Feng who disappeared for a long time.
This discovery made Shen Lingxi both happy and a little incredible.
The cheap lady Shen Ziyan went to Donghua County with her at the time, but two years have passed, and there is no news from the cheap girl, which makes Shen Lingxi very worried, but helpless.
After asking Zhang Xueqin a few times, the secret guards of Fengguo did not know Shen Ziyan's specific whereabouts, but they didn't expect that Shen Ziyan would appear in this Jianye City with Lin Feng today.
Although there is a danger of revealing his identity, Shen Lingxi still can't care about it so much. sent Wangcai and a few other dogs to buy a few foods, and immediately walked two or three steps to the tea stall on the street corner.
Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng were sitting at the tea stall talking and laughing, of course, they would still look at Shen Lingxi from time to time.
Of course, Shen Lingxi knew what they meant, so he hurriedly took two steps to the tea stall, and sat down at the tea table of Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng without thinking.
Shen Lingxi still had some experience, so instead of sitting directly at the same table with Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng, he sat at the table next to them.
I ordered two pastries and ordered another pot of tea.
Shen Lingxi just pretended to take a sip of the teacup leisurely, and then ate the pastry unhurriedly.
"Mother, Lin Feng, why did you appear here. This is Jianye, the capital of the Xuanwu Kingdom. It's too dangerous for you to come here. ”
Shen Lingxi didn't wait for Shen Ziyan to speak, so he couldn't wait to remind.
Shen Ziyan looked at Shen Lingxi with her spare eyes, her eyes full of relief.
"Xi'er, in fact, Wei Niang has been observing and protecting you in the dark for the past two years, but I just saw that you were doing well in the Xuanwu Kingdom Ping Peking University General's Mansion, and you also had the trust of Tuoba Jun, so Wei Niang did not show up, so as not to bring you unnecessary trouble. This time I came to Xuanwu Kingdom, I didn't expect to meet you, Uncle Lin Feng! Haha, it's really providence!"
Shen Ziyan faced Lin Feng, but she kept telling Shen Lingxi about her situation in the past two years.
Shen Lingxi heard Shen Ziyan say this, her eyes were a little moist, she sometimes felt that someone was secretly peeping at her in the past two years, but she didn't expect that this person was the cheap girl Shen Ziyan.
"Mother......
Shen Lingxi was a little moved, and a thousand words could only be turned into this "mother"!
"Your Highness, we just want to show Your Highness that you are not alone in Jianye. If necessary, come to this tea stall or leave a cross scratch on this seat, and we will find a way to find His Highness when we see it. ”
Lin Feng saw that Shen Lingxi and Shen Ziyan had finished talking about the past, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain the matter, but for Shen Lingxi, Lin Feng could not change the title of His Highness.
Shen Lingxi also felt strange about being called His Highness, and he felt a little strange when he heard Lin Feng still call himself His Highness, but from this point of view, Lin Feng's loyalty to himself had not changed.
"Uncle Lin Feng, I know the relationship between you and your mother, so I will call you Uncle in the future! Uncle Lin Feng, don't call me Your Highness in the future, after all, the throne of the Feng Kingdom is too far away from me, and now I just want this war between the Xuanwu Kingdom and the Feng Kingdom to end as soon as possible." Then we went back to Fengguo together to live a peaceful life. ”
Shen Lingxi didn't look at Lin Feng, but said what he had suppressed in his heart for a long time to say to Lin Feng without reservation.
In Shen Lingxi's heart, Lin Feng and Shen Ziyan are her only relatives in this world.
"But Your Highness ......"
"Okay, don't waste any more time, I also have a few followers who will come out this time, and they may be coming over soon. I'll talk about my plan now, Uncle Lin Feng, mother, you can see if my plan is feasible. ”
Lin Feng originally wanted to say something, maybe he was still a little reluctant to give up on the throne of the Feng Kingdom, but at the moment, it was indeed the most important thing to let the Xuanwu Kingdom end the war with the Feng Kingdom as soon as possible, so he didn't say anything more, but wanted to see Shen Lingxi's specific plans.
Shen Ziyan didn't expect that Shen Lingxi was undercover beside Tuoba Jun, the general of Xuanwu Guoping, and now he was able to have a way to end this war, so he also sat down and listened carefully.
"That's right, this time I returned to Jianye, and the emperor of the Xuanwu Kingdom, Tuoba Tian, summoned me into the palace. From the tone of the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom, I knew that the emperor hoped that this war would end as soon as possible, and the emperor could not be the master of this matter, and asked me to go back to lobby the general of Pingbei Tuoba Jun. ”
Shen Lingxi deliberately paused when he said this, allowing Lin Feng and Shen Ziyan to fully analyze the situation they wanted.
"So, the Emperor of the Xuanwu Kingdom is a puppet!"
Shen Ziyan was surprised.
Lin Feng on the side nodded, as if clarifying his conjecture.
Shen Lingxi continued: "I promised the emperor, but as soon as I left the palace, I learned from the housekeeper of the Pingbei General's Mansion that it turned out that the Pingbei General Tuoba Jun also wanted to withdraw the army to Jianye, but he couldn't find a suitable excuse. Now with the emperor's instructions, the Pingbei General's Mansion has a reason to transfer the army back to Jianye City, and the Pingbei General Tuoba Jun has long had the idea of plotting to move to the throne. They Pingbei General Mansion felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”
Seeing that Lin Feng and Shen Ziyan were shocked, they wanted to say something, but Shen Lingxi already had his own ideas, so he told his plan without waiting for them to speak.
"Uncle Lin Feng, mother. I think this matter can be done by Tuoba Jun, the general of Pingbei, but we can't let him complete the matter of staggering so smoothly, otherwise once someone with such ambition becomes the new emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom, it will be a catastrophe for our Feng Kingdom. So we have to wait until Tuoba Jun transfers troops back to Jianye, and find a way to inform Prime Minister Li Cheng. It is best to let Prime Minister Li Cheng and Tuoba Jun fight well under Jianye City. ”
Lin Feng still agreed with Shen Lingxi's plan, so he hurriedly said: "This plan is very good, since Xuanwu Guoping Beida General Tuoba Jun wants to rebel, then let him transfer troops back." As for Prime Minister Li Cheng, in fact, I can remind the Prime Minister in time that His Royal Highness doesn't know anything, and now I am a guest in the Prime Minister's Mansion. And Prime Minister Li Cheng treated me with great courtesy. At that time, I will tell Prime Minister Li Cheng that the Pingbei General Tuoba Jun is going to rebel, and when the time comes, Prime Minister Li Cheng and Pingbei General Tuoba Jun will only be able to fight each other and lose both!"
Lin Feng had fully understood Shen Lingxi's plan, and he could be said to be very impressed by Shen Lingxi's idea.
Shen Lingxi didn't expect that Lin Feng was now a guest at Prime Minister Li Cheng's place, and he felt that it was really effortless to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to go, with Lin Feng's help, his plan to make Xuanwu civil strife basically complete.
Now wait for the general of Pingbei to transfer troops back to Jianye, and then find a suitable time to make public the matter of Tuoba Jun's rebellion.
"I'll have to look at the specifics, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I'll come to this tea stall as soon as there's new news. See my signal, let's get in touch again!"
Shen Lingxi felt that she had almost finished talking about the matter, so she didn't dare to stay longer, she was afraid that the doglegs of the Pingbei General's Mansion would find out about the relationship between Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng and herself.
After all, this is not only related to the safety of Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng, but also to the outcome of the war between Xuanwu Kingdom and Feng Kingdom.
Shen Lingxi had witnessed the slaughter of hundreds of Fengguo soldiers on the battlefield, and hoped that this cannibalistic war would end as soon as possible.
So Shen Lingxi didn't dare to take risks now, she hoped that her plan could be successfully completed.
"Mother, Uncle Lin Feng, you continue to drink tea, I'll go first. My retinue will be back soon, so I can't stay long. ”
After speaking, Shen Lingxi didn't wait for Shen Ziyan and Lin Feng to answer, he immediately stood up and threw down a tael of silver, and left without looking back.
Shen Lingxi had actually seen Wangcai who was running towards this side after buying something, so he pretended to wait impatiently and got up and walked towards Wangcai.
Wangcai saw the unhappy face of the young master, and knew that most of them were a little unhappy after waiting for a long time, so he hurriedly ran over with a lot of things, nodded respectfully, and was afraid that Shen Lingxi would not give him a holiday to go back to visit his relatives if he was unhappy.
Shen Lingxi is actually very clear about Wangcai's thoughts about him, after all, he has been back to Jianye for a while, and he has not given Wangcai a holiday for a long time, so that he can go back to see his family.
"You are really slow to buy these things, do you think these things are all needed by Young Master Ben? It's not for you to go back to visit your relatives, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to buy so much. There are still 1,000 taels of silver here, and now Young Master Ben doesn't have that much input, so he will take it away. Tomorrow Young Master Ben will take your vacation, and you will go back to visit your relatives and rest for a few more days. There are other guards in the house, so you don't have to rush back. How's ......"
Shen Lingxi actually needs to send this inseparable dog-legged man Wangcai out for a while, so he just let him go back to visit his relatives.
The main thing is that Shen Lingxi also saw from the eyes of Wangcai's longing that he had returned to his heart like an arrow.
As expected, Wangcai heard that these things were for him to go back to visit his relatives, and the young master wanted to give himself another thousand taels of silver, which made Wangcai almost cry without gratitude.
"Thank you, young master, thank you so much...... Woohoo......"
Wangcai was caught by Shen Lingxi's weakness, so the whole person couldn't help crying.
It may indeed be that he has been away from home for too long, and the feeling of missing his family's hometown can no longer be controlled, and Niu Gao Ma Wangcai really can't control his emotions, so he was moved to tears in front of the pedestrians on the street.
Shen Lingxi patted Wangcai, trying to comfort this loyal dog.
"Okay, they're all such big people, and they're still crying, I really don't look at so many people on this street!"
Shen Lingxi pointed to the pedestrians who turned their heads from time to time around him, and reminded Wangcai with some amusement.
Wangcai quickly wiped his tears and bowed again to Shen Lingxi for giving him a holiday to go back to visit his relatives.
"Well, what if you're going to go back when you?"
Shen Lingxi was actually thinking that after Wangcai left, she would have some free disposal opportunities.
"That, when does the young master think it will be better for me to leave? I heard the housekeeper say that the general may retire and return to Jianye, will it not be good for me to leave the young master during this critical period?"
Wangcai was still a little afraid that the general of Pingbei, Tuoba Jun, would not see him when he came back, so he would not be able to eat and leave.
Shen Lingxi felt a little amused by Wangcai's concern, so he waved his hand.
"You are just Young Master Ben's guard, even if your father-in-law comes back, how can he take care of your affairs. Besides, it may not be possible for the stepfather to come back so soon for a while, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem for you to go to visit your relatives in a hurry and play for three or five days. And you have to keep the matter of your father-in-law coming back secret, if it leaks out, I won't spare you then. ”
Wangcai knew that the transfer of troops back to Jianye by the general Tuoba Jun of Pingbei was still in the planning, and only a few people knew about it in the Pingbei General's Mansion, which can be said to be the most confidential matter in the Pingbei General's Mansion now.
Knowing that he seemed to have slipped his mouth, fortunately it was in front of the young master, if it was someone else, or the housekeeper Tuoba Hao, Wangcai knew that he might really be in trouble.
"I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and this matter will rot in the belly of the lowly in the future. No matter who it is, the lowly will not say half a word. ”
Wangcai hurriedly assured Shen Lingxi.
Shen Lingxi actually didn't care, the news of Tuoba Jun's return to Jianye would be known sooner or later, but he didn't know that he was the general of Pingbei Tuoba Jun who was going to usurp the throne when he came back this time.
"Well, you know. Well, you'll leave tomorrow to visit your family. Just before my father-in-law comes back, you know what I mean! This is the safest, lest I have to explain to my father-in-law that you are going back to visit your relatives. ”
Shen Lingxi actually knew that Tuoba Juncai would not care about Wangcai's whereabouts, or even about Wangcai's life and death, but Shen Lingxi said this, just wanting Wangcai to feel that he was a person who was valued by General Pingbei.
"Okay, young master, then I will go back to visit my relatives tomorrow. During this time, there is no prosperous wealth around to protect the young master, the young master must be careful when he goes out, it is best to bring more guards, although this Jianye is the capital, but assassinations still often happen, so we have to guard against it. ”
Now Shen Lingxi can be said to be grateful to Dade, and the consideration of Shen Lingxi's safety is the first thing he attaches importance to.
"I know, I know that you are loyal! Don't worry, Young Master Ben is not a big man. No one is going to assassinate me, so you can put 10,000 hearts at that. ”
Shen Lingxi said a little angrily, feeling that this prosperous wealth is really endless for her mother-in-law today.
Wangcai knew that he was a little too cautious, so he had to touch his head and follow Shen Lingxi with a lot of things.
