I don't want to be king

Chapter 299

After it was completely dark, the snow drifted up again.

The road was eerily quiet, and the occasional wailing of an owl would make one's hair stand on end.

He Hong, who had just been promoted to be the commander of the palace guards, said cautiously, "My lord, it's cold outside, why don't you go inside?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "This is nothing compared to Ankang City, it's not worth mentioning at all.

This king has forgotten where you are from? "

He Hongdao, "Returning to the lord, the villain and Pan Duo are from the same hometown, and their home is in Yongzhou, and the neighbors are not more than fifty miles away."

"Anyone else at home?"

Lin Yi asked one after another.

He Hongdao, "My parents died young, and there is still a younger sister in the family. I received Sanhe the year before last, and now I have a family and a business in Sanhe."

This is Shen Chu's request.

And the people around the prince can't leave anyone with a handle.

"Yet you're still an old bachelor,"

Lin Yi teased, "I don't have anything here for you to guard. If you need to find a wife, look for it. Don't delay yourself."

He Hongdao, "Humble job understands."

Lin Yi then asked, "Has anything interesting happened in the city recently?"

He Hong pondered for a while and said, "Actually, what happened next night, Ye Qiu's younger brother Ye Chen waited in the chief secretary's office all afternoon before Ye Qiu came out.

Knowing that Ye's family was robbed by water bandits from Yong'an Wuhu, he was very angry, healed Ye Chen's injuries, and just went to the manager to ask for leave, and went directly to Wuhu to find Ye's enemies. "

Lin Yi smiled and said, "This guy still has a bit of conscience, but he is not as cold-blooded as he imagined."

The reason why he couldn't trust Ye Qiu all the time was that this guy has no "humanity", even the most beautiful girl wants to sacrifice the sword with flesh and blood to stabilize the sword's heart.

Now that he heard that Ye Qiu was willing to stand up for his family, not only did he not blame him for being unruly, but he was also a little relieved.

He Hongdao, "Also, as soon as Hong An and Tao Yingyi entered the yamen, they borrowed officers and soldiers from the guards to start patrolling the streets, beheading three people on the street."

Lin Yi sighed, "In troubled times, heavy codes should be used, but there is nothing wrong with it."

He was very surprised that he had turned into a heart of stone now, and his heart could no longer make waves when it came to things like dead people.

Normal mind.

Is it because I have seen more?
After nightfall, I drank some wine and fell asleep peacefully.

The chief secretary's yamen is still brightly lit.

Xing Keshou and Peng Guishou, who had just arrived in Jinling City, sat facing each other.

Xing Keshou picked up the warm wine, and Peng Guishou hurriedly stood up and picked up the wine glass to continue, saying incessantly, "Don't dare, don't dare."

Xing Keshou smiled and said, "If you count your fingers, you and I haven't seen each other for more than [-] years. When old friends meet again, why should Mr. Peng be so polite."

Peng Guishou sighed, "Don't dare."

Xing Keshou shook his head and said, "Maybe Mr. Peng has forgotten that the old man is still wearing a crime?
The official career is too laughable to be sad, yesterday's prosperity is declining today.

It turns like an autumn canopy with no fixed place, longer than a spring dream. "

"My lord is too modest,"

Peng Guishou and Xing Keshou drank it down after toasting, and said with a smile, "Now my lord is close to the prince, everyone knows everyone."

Xing Keshou smiled and said, "Master Peng, you are a smart person, why bother to speak politely to the old man?"

After Peng Guishou heard about it, he drank the wine in his glass again, and said with a sneer, "This old man has lived in court for decades, avoiding fierce tigers and long snakes at night;
Grinding teeth and sucking blood, killing people like hemp.

Master Xing thought, what should the old man do in front of him? "

"Official warehouse rats are as big as a bucket, and they will not leave when they see someone open a warehouse.

Healthy children have no food and the people are hungry, who will send Chao Chao to the king's mouth.

The world has been corrupted to this point, is there any good home for Mr. Peng? "

Xing Keshou snorted coldly, "If Mr. Peng is willing, he can naturally climb the Qingyun Ladder."

"Why did Master Xing teach me?"

Peng Guishou stroked his beard, he was not polite, he was no longer as cautious as before.

"The prince now occupies the land of eight states,"

Xing Keshou raised his glass again and said, "Mr. Peng, how can you be trustworthy with your hypocrisy?"

After speaking, he took out a note from his pocket and threw it directly on the table.

Peng Guishou didn't unfold the note, but his face was ashen at this moment.

"Master Peng is indeed a good method."

Xing Shoushou also admired Peng Guishou very much. In the chief secretary's yamen, where there are so many masters, he can actually pass the news to the outside.

If Pan Duo hadn't discovered it in time, the note might have entered the palace by now.

"The matter has come to this, I have no choice but to make such a bad move, I hope Master Xing will understand."

Peng Guishou sighed, "I don't know how Mr. Xing should deal with this official?"

Xing Keshou shook his head and said, "Master Peng, don't you understand what the old man means?

Why did the old man tell you so much? "

Peng Guishou said, "I am already at such an age, life and death have long been ignored, I just ask the prince to show mercy, spare my wife and children, and leave an incense for the Peng family."

Xing Keshou smiled and said, "He is kind to the prince, even if Mr. Peng wants to retire and return home, the prince will not make things difficult for you."

"I still have the strength to spare, and I am willing to do my best for the prince until I die."

Naturally, Peng Guishou would not believe what he said.

According to the current situation, it is really possible that I and my family will be imprisoned for life.

Now I have to compromise.

"From now on, the old man and the adults will support each other."

Xing Shoushou laughed happily.

After that, the two continued to drink, recalling the past.

into the night.

Hong An, who had been rushing all the way, still didn't feel sleepy, sat on the rockery, saw Fang Pi approaching, and said expressionlessly, "Why don't you sleep?"

Fang Pi smiled and said, "I heard that you are here, so I came to see you."

Hong An said angrily, "Your kung fu still hasn't improved, how dare you maintain this temper?"

"who said it!"

Fang Pi blushed and said, "My qinggong is almost catching up with Wang Tuozi!"

"You don't have the truth in your mouth,"

Hong An said contemptuously, "I can't even catch up with Wang Tuozi's lightness kung fu."

"Talking to you is getting more and more boring."

After Fang Pi finished speaking, he fell into the darkness.

As soon as he opened the door of his room, he saw Pan Duo sitting inside.

"I know you must want to drink."

Pando smiled.

"How dare you peep,"

Fang Pi said angrily, "The blind man's room is right next to it, let him find out, you must have no good fruit to eat."

"Are you jealous of him?"

Pan Duo asked while pouring wine for him.

"It's all my own incompetence to blame, what has it to do with others."

Fang Pi poured the wine down his throat.

Pan Duo patted him on the shoulder and said, "A man is a real man, why worry about not having a wife?

Take it easy. "

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Fang Pi said unhappily, "You don't have a wife yourself, how can you have the face to talk about me."

Lie on the bed and stop talking to Pando.

Pan Duo shook his head, closed the door, and left directly.

The heavy snow outside is still flying all over the sky.
