Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1154

   Chapter 1154 Talking to himself

It was Li Xin who showed his attitude towards this so-called “auspicious”, and Zhao Jia did as Li Xin said, but this Zhao Xiang invited Zhou Youyi into the house for dinner before he did this. a meal.

   Originally, a speculative villain like Zhou Youyi, Zhao Jia was reluctant to make friends anyway, but now Zhao Jia or the Southwest Group needs someone like Zhou Youyi to stand up and drive the wind in the court.

   In addition, the Jing’an Houfu’s attitude towards this matter is also quite ambiguous.

As long as you are selected, the landlord will naturally come to your hometown and put the land in your name in person. Therefore, except for some serious stubborn people or scholars who disdain the group of squires and landlords, other The number of scholars who can get a lot of income from the property under their name every year, Zhou Youyi, who is speculative to this level, naturally cannot give up this wealth.

   Therefore, the punishment of being fined for half a year can only be regarded as a small warning, and it is not harmful at all.

The Marquis of Jing’an gave this ambiguous result. When Zaifu, who was in power in the courtroom, invited Zhou Youyi into the house for a meal. Together, these two things have been given to the courtroom. The officials have enough hints.

It is foreseeable that in the next period of time, the “auspicious” similar to this kind of white ganoderma will appear frequently. will start to persuade.

   Either way, Zhao Jia and Mu Ying and other forces in the southwest are happy to see it, so Zhao Jia even made it clear in his identity as Saisuke.

Sure enough, in the three months after Zhou Youyi’s first auspiciousness, the imperial court has received more than ten pieces of “auspicious auspiciousness”. Some of these auspicious auspices are gigantic tortoises, and some are strange stones that emerge from the water, most of which represent God’s will. Most of the content of the seal script is similar to the prophecy of “The destiny is in the Miao”. Of course, some of them are more clever, and some simply write “Eighteen sons, rule the world”, which is simple and easy to guess. the riddle.

Regarding these “auspicious”, the vast majority of officials in the court kept silent. Although the emperor was angry, he could only pretend that he did not see it. It’s as if you never knew these things existed.

   However, the undeniable fact is that most of these officials who made offerings to the “auspicious” were not punished except Zhou Youyi who was fined for half a year.

   So these people seemed to see a long blue sky and became more fanatical.

   At this time, it was the late autumn of the first year of Yankang, and it had been nearly a year since the new emperor ascended the throne.

Li Da, who lived in a secluded place, also came out of Jing’an Hou’s mansion. He was wearing a thick cotton coat. He first walked around the capital’s various squares, then went to the Yulinwei camp in the south of the city to have a look, and finally sat down. Taking the black carriage of the Marquis of Jing’an’s mansion, he left the city from the east gate and walked towards a small hill in the east of the city.

   The carriage had gone for less than an hour before it stopped at the destination. Li Xin got off the carriage and looked up at the hill in front of him, which was not very high but not too short.

  The emperor used the hills as his mausoleum. Here is the mausoleum of Tai, the seventh emperor of the Jin Dynasty and the mausoleum of Emperor Jing.

   Now is the first year of Yankang, and six years have passed since the death of Emperor Jing.

   What happened in the past six years is much bigger than what happened in the entire ten years of Taikang.

  Li Xin raised his head and looked at the long Shinto at the foot of Changchang Mountain, carrying two jars of wine in his hand, and walked up the stairs silently.

   The Shinto is very long, and he walked for almost half an hour before he reached the Tailing Hall of Tailing.

  The so-called Tailing Hall is the hall of the emperor’s mausoleum, where the tablets and portraits of Emperor Jing are enshrined, and the emperor’s life-long achievements are written here.

  Because Emperor Jing passed away not long ago, the incense in Tailing was very prosperous. There were more than a dozen eunuchs in the Xiangdian Temple every day. The whole Xiangdian Temple was not only clean, but also the spiritual altar before the tablet was always full of incense.

  Li Xin carried a jar of wine in his hand, stepped into the palace, and said silently to the dozen or so eunuchs in the palace, “You all, go out.”

At this time, Li Xin had been in the capital for nearly a year. Even these eunuchs guarding the imperial tomb knew who had the final say in the court, so after hearing Li Xin’s words, they quickly respectfully responded. Then exited the Hall of Enjoyment of Tailing.

   Outside the gate of Xiangdian, there are dozens of guards from the Jing’an Houfu, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.

  When there was only one person left in the hall, Li Xin silently raised his head, looked at the portrait of Emperor Jing for a long time, and finally sighed silently, sitting on the futon in front of the spiritual seat, looking up at Diyan.

   “I haven’t been back to the capital for several years. I should have come here to see you as soon as I came back, but…”

  Li Xin sat on the futon, sprinkled the spirits from the wine jar in front of the Taikang Emperor Ling, and then smiled bitterly: “But after all, I didn’t come back seriously, so I was a little embarrassed to come here.”

   “I didn’t believe that there was a spirit after death, but then I thought, since I have a spirit after death, you should also have a spirit after death.”

   “Before the Southwest Army entered Beijing, you came to see me, didn’t you?”

Li Xin raised his head and glanced at the Emperor Taikang in the portrait, and laughed at himself: “It’s useless for you to come and see me, I’ll fight the capital if it’s time to fight the capital, and when the time comes, let alone your son on the throne, it’s you. I am on the throne, and I will also grit my teeth and pull you down.”

  Li Xin poured about half a jar of Zhurong wine on the ground, then raised his head and took a sip, his face flushed from the strong drink.

   He managed to slow down, and he was already a little embarrassed.

   “I’m actually not very suitable for being a big man.”

Li Xin put the wine jar in front of him, wiped the wine on his face with his hands, and said silently, “If I were a big man, I would probably have demolished your ancestral temple by now, and the people in the capital with the surname Ji. , there are not many left, at this time the world has long been surnamed Li, and it has nothing to do with your Ji family.”

   “In my bones, I am still a small person.”

  Li Xin sat in the Tailing Hall without any image, and laughed at himself: “So until now, I’m still a little embarrassed for your family.”

   He seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be talking to someone in the dark.

   “Actually, when I first met you, I knew very well that if you want to use me, I will also use you. You and I are at best allies, not friends.”

   “Until the entire Taikang Dynasty, I couldn’t figure out whether I was your friend or not.”

   “until you go…”

   “You didn’t take me with you.”

Li Xin closed his eyes and said silently: “At that time, I was already a threat to the imperial court, you can take me with you, but you didn’t. Since then, I think the two of us may have been friends for many years. .”

   “Since you treat me as a friend, I also treat you as a friend.”

  Li Xin sat on the futon and muttered to himself.

   “At this point, neither I nor the Southwest Army can look back. You are my friend, and so are theirs.”

   “I will leave a bloodline for your eldest son.”

   “Now they’re pushing me so hard…”

   Governor Li’s face was flushed and his voice was a little vague.

   “Everyone in the world is for themselves, so am I…”

   I’ve been out of town for the past few days, I came back by train today, and I’m preparing a new book, so I’m missing a chapter, I’ll try to make it up tomorrow…
