Chapter 140: Suspicious
Wu Qitu said that the purpose of the test was to starve his body and skin, empty his body, and act chaotically.
But Xu Changan felt that there was something missing in Wu Qitu's words, or it could be said that there was something more in the test he had received.
The two of them had been discussing and chatting all night by Wangqiu Lake, and Bai Ma slept very sweetly except for being woken up once in the middle of the way.
Xu Changan thought of those broad palms, thought of the tall figure, and said for a moment, "I think your father should know a lot of things that we don't know." ”
Lin Ying looked at his expression, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said mockingly, "You want to ask my father?"
Xu Changan licked his lips, did not hesitate, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't dare, don't dare."
Then he turned his head to look at the Wangqiu Lake, and suddenly found that there was also a little boy squatting on the opposite bank.
The young man was good-looking, quiet, and was doing what Xu Changan was doing before, that is, looking at the lake and thinking about something.
Xu Changan felt that the young man was a little familiar, and he didn't have to think about anything carefully, because in this city, the only thing that made him somewhat familiar was the young man who squatted next to the big tree and quietly looked at the flowers last autumn, and the young man who made him gnash his teeth.
At this time, the boy seemed to be no different from last year, still squatting, but at that time he was looking at flowers, and now it has been replaced by a lake.
Xu Changan said with a smile: "That person seems to be a little like me." ”
Lin Ying followed Xu Chang'an's gaze, also recognized the other party, and asked a little puzzled and speechless, "You mean the same action of squatting by the lake?"
I don't know why Xu Changan suddenly said this, speechless is the same as squatting by the lake, what is a strange thing?
Xu Changan shook his head slightly, smiling without saying a word.
The boy now had time to crouch by the lake, which meant that it was time for supper when he had finished feeding the horses.
The two of them didn't stay any longer, and they didn't want to go to the young man opposite to say a few words, after all, these two were not people who could be born to know anyone like that monk.
I bought some dry food at random in the city, and after leaving the city, I ran all the way.
The route is not unfamiliar, out of the Jing Dynasty, and then through Yangguan, you can return to your own country.
I can't talk about homesickness, but I don't want to stay longer.
Especially Lin Ying, I don't know how much ridicule and ridicule will be received if I stay in this vase-like city for a long time, Xu Changan is also afraid that Lin Ying will become the first student in this city to hurt people to participate in the entrance test, with the idea that more things are better than less, the two of them went out of this city.
The doubts that Xu Changan said in his mouth naturally couldn't be understood by just thinking about it, after all, they didn't know much about the situation in the world, and they didn't know much about Wangshulou.
However, it is not that there is no breakthrough point at all, because in this series of events, there is a party who is still alive, escorting the Zulong Emperor, and the person who killed so many strong people is Lin Pinggui.
It stands to reason that the other party should know a lot of things that most people don't know, but for this person when he was in Sifang City at that time, Xu Changan didn't expect to ask him anything, and he still won't.
As for Lin Ying, he had asked, but when the other party seemed to be involved in state affairs, he seemed to have forgotten that Lin Ying was his daughter.
So I can't ask anything if Lin Ying asks again.
In fact, not only these two couldn't ask, but on the table in the main account of Wanqiu City, there were two letters, one red and one black.
Neither letter has yet to be opened, but a mere guess suggests that the contents of the two letters must be identical.
What he didn't accept when he returned to the capital will not accept it now, and what he hasn't said still won't speak.
Everyone thinks it's an iron mouth that can't be pried open, and that's exactly what happened.
"Lord Commander, those two letters," said an adjutant with a frown and some hesitation in the dimly lit main ledger.
The frown was not because he felt that those two letters were a little difficult for the city, but because he heard some voices that made people speechless.
Lin Pinggui listened to the crying sound coming from the city, and also rubbed his fingers and frowned, his mind was not on the two letters.
After a long time, he remembered the adjutant's words, and said calmly, "Zhang Ling, do you know what is written in these two letters. ”
The adjutant named Zhang Ling fell into deep thought, and even the noisy cries in the city could not disturb his thoughts, and after a while, he replied, "The two letters should be an invitation to the commander to return to the capital. ”
Lin Pinggui smiled, "Then you might as well guess why His Majesty the Emperor and the eldest prince want me to return to the capital?"
Zhang Ling frowned slightly, obviously puzzled, although Wanqiu City was far away from the court, but this adjutant still knew that the eldest prince and His Majesty the Emperor were opposed, if it was just one person who invited Lin Ping to return to the past, but what did both of them want to do with his return, it would be difficult for people to understand.
Lin Pinggui laid the two letters stacked together on the table, one with the word "Spring and Autumn" written on it, and the other with only a black seal-like pattern.
Looking at the two letters, he shook his head slightly, and explained, "The eldest prince and His Majesty the Emperor, both of them are thinking about the chaos in the capital, but they are afraid that the situation in the city will be out of their control after the chaos, guess what, how can the capital be in chaos?"
Why do those two people want to cause chaos in the capital? Actually, this is not the case, but some of the things they want to do will inevitably cause chaos in the capital, which is no different from wanting to cause chaos in the capital.
Zhang Ling woke up suddenly, and frowned, "His Majesty the Emperor has died?"
If others heard this kind of words, they would probably be punished, but Zhang Ling didn't look around and lowered his voice when he said this, because this was in Wanqiu City.
Lin Pinggui nodded slightly, shook his head again, and then asked, "His Majesty the Emperor died, this is something that the eldest prince has the ability to do, but what does His Majesty the Emperor want to do when I go back to the capital?"
Zhang Ling opened his mouth and said, "The courtiers have been purged, and many people will die. Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor wants the Commander to return to the capital to stabilize the situation, and then to escort him. ”
Lin Pinggui stood up, looked at the spear erected next to him, walked to the side and raised a hand to brush it gently.
Thinking of the young man who was still crying in the city, he couldn't help but smile, and then said, "You guessed right, many years ago, when I entered the palace, I was hiberning the hidden dragon for His Majesty, at that time, I felt that this person was mediocre, and I thought that the Zulong Emperor was right to appoint the eldest prince as the prince, but it was only now that I really felt that it was really wrong to look at people on the surface."
Our emperor has endured it for many years, and I originally thought that the slaughter of the city in Sifang City was only a preliminary action, and participating in the entrance test was a further action. Although I had never been in the palace, I could guess that his two moves would have had little effect.
I thought I thought I had a high opinion of our emperor, but now I realized that my eyes were not enough to see each other. Those actions are not co-optation, but just a little mercy on the part of the lord of a nation to give those people a chance. Therefore, if I go back to the capital, there will indeed be many deaths in the city. ”
How could the emperor go to great lengths to win over others? The emperor should not try to win over others, this is what only the people in the audience have to do. The emperor needs to tolerate with a broad mind, and when he can't tolerate it, he will fall into the abyss with monstrous anger.
Zhang Ling didn't wonder why those actions could only be implemented after Lin Ping returned to the capital.
Because the other party has explained that whether it is the death of His Majesty the Emperor or the purge of the court, there will be chaos in the capital.
Not to mention whether these unrest can be calmed down, the negative impact alone will shake the rule of the incumbent. And at that time, if there was a strong martial artist of the Dachang Dynasty in the capital, the situation would be much better.
The position of Captain is vacant, and the generals and guards of the city must give orders first to this person when they do not know who to obey.
And Lin Pinggui and Zhennanjun are the same as the Spirit Academy, but they are a little different from the Spirit Academy.
The Zhennan army will not care about the fight between the two of them, but will only ensure the safety of the city and calm the turmoil, which is exactly what His Majesty the Emperor and the eldest prince need.
Zhang Ling suddenly thought of something, and said with some worry: "Since you mean that His Majesty the Emperor will not tolerate those people, then you, my lord?"
Lin Pinggui laughed heroically, and said indifferently, "There are not many people in power like me who can tolerate it, so I admire Emperor Zulong's strict order that the royal family does not allow the royal family to stretch out his hand to the national army, which really requires a long-term vision and a lot of courage." ”
Zhang Ling was deeply impressed by this commander, and the other party only said what the decision and vision of the Zulong Emperor was, but he did not say a word about his own destination. In Zhang Ling's opinion, no matter which letter on the table is opened, this commander can ensure that future generations have no worries about their lives, but he must be careful to support it here.
Zhang Ling suddenly thought of the doubts in these things, and wondered, "But the lower officials don't understand, where does the turmoil come from?"
Lin Pinggui looked at the wisp of spear hidden in the dim main account, and explained, "Turmoil can only come from within, the Spirit Academy does not participate in the affairs of the court, and the Imperial Spirit Division alone can't make any big waves, but the officials can only do this, the pen can't be used as a gun, those two people have their own ways to deal with this, what they are afraid of is the chrysalis army." ”
Zhang Ling was shocked, "The army left by Emperor Zulong during his lifetime?"
Lin Pinggui nodded, "No one knows where that army is hiding, and it is no longer a secret that the Sword Casting Hall will be a secret after the death of Emperor Zulong, everyone has begun to use the ore consumed in the Sword Casting Hall to deduce the size of that army, guess what the result is?" Lin Pinggui asked with a smile.
Zhang Ling frowned, and replied, "The lower official is stupid, I can't guess." ”
Lin Pinggui walked outside the account, looked at the dark sky and said, "According to the equipment of one person, one spear and one armor, that army can easily destroy a city. ”
Zhang Ling was shocked to the extreme, he asked himself that he had been fighting with this commander for many years, and his mind was already extremely stable, but he was still shocked by what he said, and when he came back to his senses, he hesitated a little and said, "This is impossible, so many people can't hide quietly." ”
Lin Pinggui nodded slightly appreciatively, "Yes, this is what everyone is curious and afraid of, no one knows what the Ancestral Dragon Emperor is going to do." ”
