Air castle.
The night breeze blew gently, Xiao Wang leaned against the railing, and his gray hair flew forward.
The two men were silent for a long time.
Yi Xiao never answered Xiao Wang's words.
"Wei Wudao...... His Royal Highness took a deep breath, stared at Xiao Wang's eyes, and said word by word: "There is the truth in him." โ
"I don't know what the old fox said to you before he died. Xiao Wang lowered his eyebrows, raised his hands leaning on the railing, brushed his gray sideburns, and said softly: "But it must not be a good word, he committed suicide, it seems that he used death to dispel your thoughts, but in fact, it played a role in fueling the troubles." โ
His Highness took a deep breath.
He said: "Tianque has done so many unseemly things for you over the years, half of them are under Wei Wudao's instructions, he is dead, you still can't trust him?"
Xiao Wang did not speak.
Yi Xiao said softly: "You can rest assured that Wei Wudao didn't say a word of sorry for you until he died." โ
"Xiao Wang, I want to borrow one night in Lanling City. โ
Yi Xiao said very calmly: "I am not afraid of the people you are afraid of, so I will kill the people you are afraid of, and I will do what you can't do." โ
His Majesty didn't speak, but just looked at Yi Xiao meaningfully.
"I want to use all the case records and documents of the North and South Governors of Lanling City. Yi Xiao lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "You know, I have never asked you for anything, and today is the first and last time." โ
Xiao Wang thought about it for a long time.
He whispered, "What about after dawn?"
His Highness struggled to calm his voice.
"If I find out, then I'll kill the person who should be killed and make a settlement. โ
"If I don't find out, Wei Wudao's death is the final end. โ
Xiao Wang took a deep breath and said, "Okay." โ
He waved his hand, didn't speak again, turned around, and continued to lie back on the jade railing of the pavilion in the sky.
Slightly closed his eyes, and he was happy.
......
......
The Yamen of the Governor of the North of Lanling City ushered in a young man in a white robe.
The Northern Governor's Department Yamen was responsible for dissecting the corpse and testing the cause of death.
The white-robed young man carried the corpse of an old man, covered with sword wounds, and his death could not be more miserable.
The coroners glanced at each other and saw that something was wrong in their hearts.
Such an injury caused death, and the Southern Governor Division had just sent the body of a middle-aged man, which was exactly the same as the old man's death.
The family member still refused to leave at the gate of the Northern Governor's Office, and stubbornly begged the Governor's Department to file a case for investigation, so that he could thoroughly investigate the matter and return his innocence.
And almost everyone knows that the boss of the adult, the boss of the adult, I don't know how many layers of meaning, the news that has been passed down is very clear.
This case should not be investigated again.
And the news...... It is very likely that it is the instruction of those big people at the highest level of Tianque.
This case is basically yellow, even if this woman is crying blind, it is impossible to file a case, at most it is some perfunctory procedures, the shelf life of the body is only a few days, people who have no money and no power cry and beg to solve the case, but the yamen does not perform an autopsy, basically the governor will take it away and take it to the fire and burn it, there are so many such headless cases, and even the ashes will not be able to tell who is who.
How to check?
Who dares to anger the brows of those big people in Tianque?
Several coroners of the Northern Governor's Department could not reach such a high level, they only knew that the young man in white robe carrying the old man's body could not afford his own guilt.
Few people in the entire Qi Liang were offended.
His Royal Highness said that he wanted to investigate this corpse, and he wanted to examine it clearly, even when those big people from Tianque came, they could only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
And the drama is ...... They didn't know that the old man they wanted to test was the so-called one of the best people in Tianque.
"The wound was examined, and the wounds were investigated, and the sword edge, texture, and time of the injuries on his body were all found out. โ
Yi Xiao looked at the old man's corpse very calmly, "The more detailed, the better." โ
The young man in the white robe turned his head slightly, and saw the woman kneeling in the hall and weeping.
Lin Yi's body was about to be lifted by the staff of the Northern Governor's Division, and according to their words to deceive the woman, the body of this middle-aged painter would be sent to the relevant part of the Governor's Division's yamen to wait for investigation, and then come back tomorrow for an autopsy.
In fact, if you lift it, you will be pulled to the fire, and tomorrow it will be a handful of ashes.
The woman gritted her teeth and did not speak, her face was full of tears, and she hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, and the little girl did not understand why her mother was crying so sadly, but she caught a glimpse of the man lying in the white cloth with only his face exposed, and the white cloth on his body was blood-red.
She stood on tiptoe to wipe away the tears for the woman, and asked in a milky voice, "Mother...... Is Daddy asleep?"
The woman choked up and nodded.
His Royal Highness the white-robed young man closed his eyes slightly, and thoughtfully lowered his voice and asked the governor who had flattered him all the way and followed him, "Tianque said that he wanted to suppress this matter?"
The governor's face was a little ugly, and he could only nod in embarrassment.
Yi Xiao pointed to Lin Yi's corpse and said softly: "This person is the same, within an hour, I want the clearest autopsy report, this matter Tianque said or not, if you want to wear the black gauze hat on your head, you should know how to do it." โ
After finishing speaking, His Royal Highness slowly walked to the middle-aged beauty's side.
He crouched down and patted the little girl on the head.
The woman didn't know where the young white-robed man came from, but when he stepped into the Northern Governor's Division, there was a crowd of officials behind him, and no one dared to make a move.
The hall was extremely quiet, and the frequent disgusted glances of those officials could only stop there, helpless.
She knew that this young man was an amazing big man.
So she knew that only by making enough noise to attract the attention of this young man, her husband's case...... It is possible to be set up and thoroughly investigated.
His Royal Highness took a deep breath and said softly, "Some people say that you have been kneeling here for a day because of your grievances. โ
The little girl in the woman's arms kept her eyes wide open, trying to listen to every word.
The woman finally waited for this opportunity, she first wiped the tears from her face, and saw the vague threatening gaze of the big people around her.
She said bitterly, "My lord...... I saw you pointing at my husband, and the other ...... 'adults' immediately carried him away, has the case been opened?"
She paused as she said this, trying to find another word to divide the class in the field, but she could only say the word "adult", and she could not find a more appropriate adjective.
This young man in a white robe who gently crouched down was an adult.
These officials who cast an indifferent gaze at them are also adults.
Yi Xiao hummed softly: "The case has been filed." Murderer...... It will soon be found. โ
When the woman heard this, she said.
She testified for a long time.
The woman hugged the child tighter, she closed her eyes, and more tears welled up in her eyes.
There were more and more indifferent and disdainful eyes around him.
"My man is a very good man, he never quarrels with others...... He can't even kill a moth, how can he have an enemy?"
The woman's voice was getting tougher and harder.
"The lord of the Southern Governor Division said to me, my man went to provoke the big man by himself, I don't know who the big man they are talking about, my man is an ordinary painter, he went to the battlefield back then, and killed the enemy for Qi Liang...... How can you mess with the big guys?"
She couldn't help crying: "You don't know Lin Yi, he said that he only wants the family to be safe, and nothing else is wanted, he doesn't cause trouble, and he won't even say a word outside, why is such a person ...... Why did he provoke the enemy as you said, where did the enemy come from? He is not a wicked person, he is really not a ......."
"So I don't believe ......"
"I really don't believe ......"
The child in his arms seemed to suddenly understand something, and his big eyes moistened.
The little girl sniffed, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mother...... Isn't Daddy asleep?"
The woman's face was full of ugly tears, she stopped crying, and did not answer the question of the daughter in her arms, but looked straight at Yi Xiao.
His Royal Highness suddenly felt a little sad about what happened to this man.
Lin Yi's life is over, even if he didn't kill him at that time, and Wei Wudao didn't kill him, he would be an idiot in the end, crazy and stupid, and spend his life stupidly.
Karma, reincarnation is unpleasant.
He lived the rest of his life so cautiously, so slightly, even humblely...... Maybe it's thinking that you can offset the evil consequences with good retribution?
But there are still people in the world who will commit other evil consequences.
How innocent are the people who have suffered this evil fruit?
Yi Xiao didn't hate Lin Yi, this man was just a team leader of the third group of Tianque back then, and most of the temples and rivers and lakes were involuntarily, where could there be good causes and good results throughout his life?
Even if he is now killing 2,000 people in the Daji Mountain Range, this karma is already entangled, and one day he will suffer retribution.
Everyone is wicked.
Evil for evil.
His Royal Highness lowered his eyebrows softly and gently rubbed the little girl's head.
Lin Yi's daughter turned her head and looked at the white-robed young man in front of her with some confusion.
His Royal Highness pointed to the white cloth and said softly: "He has slept now, he will sleep for a long, long, long time, and when you grow up, he will wake up." โ
Lin Yi's daughter hummed softly, believing it, then thought about it, and asked in her mother's words, "My lord......"
His Royal Highness smiled and corrected, "What are you shouting, my lord?" โ
Lin Yi's daughter was a little entangled.
She couldn't tell the difference between an adult and an older brother.
But she knew that the former was respectful with fear, and the latter with respect and kindness.
She looked at the young man in the white robe with a gentle smile.
She didn't feel the slightest affection.
So she paused for a long time, finally shook her head stubbornly, looked directly at Yi Xiao, and asked very sincerely, "My lord...... My daddy is ...... Is it a wicked person?"
His Royal Highness was stunned.
There is some distance in the world, and if you are not willing to reach out, the other side is willing to lead you.
After all, there is a moat that cannot be crossed.
Yi Xiao laughed at herself, thinking about Lin Yi's death, she was also one of the culprits, and now she helped his wife file a case, what is this? Great compassion or hypocrisy?
Shed crocodile tears.
It's just that sometimes the innocence is not dead, and at that time I look up and look at the world in a confused way, full of flowers and praise, sunshine and beauty.
Only then Naivety was killed.
Lin Yi's daughter has flowers and sunshine in her eyes, but the flower is withering, and the sun is gradually dimming.
It's inevitable for everyone.
Lin Yi sixteen years ago may have been such a person.
The genius man in fresh clothes and angry horses, so young, sat in the position of the leader of the Tianque team, his sword qi was full of his chest, and he poured wine on the block.
Only then his innocence died.
He also died.
Fortunately, the next generation is blooming the stamens and blooming the sun for him.
Lin Yi's daughter pursed her lips, nervously waiting for Yi Xiao's answer.
Yi Xiao said with a smile: "There are many good people in this world, and your father is one of them." โ
......
......
The little girl looked at the white-robed young man and got up.
Then a group of officials held the moon and left here.
There was silence at the entrance of the hall.
She looked at the man with his eyes closed on the white cloth, and someone had carried him away.
The little girl waved at him with a solemn face.
She has two words in her name.
It's called naivety.
This innocent girl waved goodbye very seriously.
Lin Tianzhen whispered to his mother: "Mother, don't cry. โ
The woman looked up, in a trance.
This childish little girl wiped away her tears in distress, and said softly: "Dad said that people can't be resurrected after death, and it's useless to cry for a long time." โ
The woman froze.
Lin Tianzhen said softly: "Mother must be obedient, otherwise my father will be very sad." โ
All innocence will die, but what can be replaced by innocence is not necessarily meanness, cruelty, or indifference.
The little girl closed her eyes, she stood on tiptoe very gently, hugged her mother, and kissed her forehead gently.
When she opened her eyes again, there was a clear calmness in them.
The innocent flowers and the sun are dead.
"Mother, my father once told me...... Dad said that he was a general a long time ago, and he killed people, killed many people. Lin Tianzhen said softly: "Dad said that killing people is to pay for his life, one day someone will find him and make an end to the cause and effect of the past, and then he will think about it, there is nothing that he can't let go, only the two of us." โ
"Dad left a lot of lanterns and painted a lot of paintings, but he was afraid that when that day came, some people would think of him, but they would not see him. โ
Lin Tianzhen squatted down, gently blew out the lantern that the Southern Governor Division had taken to fool him, and put it aside.
"Go home, mother. โ
The little girl said gently, "Go home and see Daddy's lantern." โ
She took the woman's hand.
The woman was weeping.
