I don't want to be king

Chapter 571 Capital City

Chapter 571 Returning to the capital

In the snow, the carriage was galloping fast, under the bumps, Lin Yi's butt could not stand it, he leaned on the railing of the carriage, and lay down obediently, and then put a thick quilt under his buttocks and head .

When we got there, it was already dark.

The few lanterns on the street swayed like will-o'-the-wisps in the wind and snow. When the residents heard the roar of people outside and the neighing of horses, they poked their heads out curiously. After seeing that they were officers and soldiers, they closed the door with a bang. .

The only inn in Shaguan Town was closing the door in a hurry. The young man babbled and was only short of the last piece. Suddenly the door couldn’t be closed. He suddenly raised his head and found a man standing in front of him like an iron tower. The palm is against the door panel.

Lei Kaishan said, "Why?

Out of business? "

"Do it, do it, Mr. Jun, please,"

The shopkeeper ran out quickly, and pushed the boy who was dazed aside, "Why are you standing there, hurry up and feed the horse to Jun Ye."

"You don't need to worry about feeding the horses. Hurry up and take out all the food you have here. We are the Sanhe Army, not bandits,"

Lei Kaishan said as he threw a piece of silver over and said, "It's good to serve you, there is another reward."

It was windy outside, and the shopkeeper pressed his black cap, stretched his head to look at the mouse flag waving in the wind, and let out a long sigh of relief, "It turned out to be the Sanhe Army. I thought it was passing by somewhere else."

Without hesitation, he put the silver into his pocket, and then took off the door panels one by one with his own hands.

As we all know, the Sanhe army has strict discipline, and Qiu has committed no crimes in what it has gone through, and the officers and soldiers are generous with the money, and the nearby villagers often make a fortune along with it.

Lin Yi got off the carriage, his head was still dizzy, and after sitting down in the lobby of the inn with his forehead supported, he felt much more comfortable after drinking a pot of tea.

Tan Fei said with concern, "My lord, why don't you go into the room and rest for a while?"

"no need."

Lin Yi disliked the bloated jacket, and after taking it off, he only wore an inner jacket, and he didn't feel too cold.

He didn't know if it was because of the heat from the snow or because his physique had strengthened.

He was more inclined to improve his physique, which was verified in the greenhouse yesterday, and he was not overwhelmed like before.

Even though I got motion sickness today, I am still full of energy and feel like I can eat three more bowls of rice.

I heard that it was the Sanhe Army outside, and the residents on the street opened their doors one after another, selling snacks, cotton cloth, shoes, haircuts, everything, and not taking out some money from the team of 500 people , I guess I can't sleep at night.

After Mei Jingzhi patted the snorting horse in front of her, she didn't rush into the inn. She stood at the door, looking at the suddenly brightly lit street, and sighed, "The old man didn't deserve to lose."

The King of Nanling asked in a low voice, "Why did grandfather say such a thing?"

Mei Jingzhi said slowly, "There is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, and the bones are exposed in the wild. What do you think you are talking about?"

King Jin couldn't help but interjected, "It's about the bones exposed in the field after the battle. There is no one living there, and you can't even hear the crowing of chickens."

Mei Jingzhi said, "Those are the bones of the common people. But when a large army crosses the border, it is like locusts, plundering everything, and there are countless casualties and blood everywhere."

The King of Nanling seemed to be emotional, "Even Brother Sanhuang claims to have done nothing wrong in the autumn, but sometimes after a long attack on the city, the losses are heavy, and in anger, he has done a lot of things to massacre the city."

The one that impressed me the most was Pingcheng, which was besieged by Shen Chu for three months. After the lack of food and grass, they could only plunder, demolish and loot the houses, and the people were destitute.

The king of Jin said, "When a man acts like a man, he should be informal."

"But the righteousness is lost because of the small details, but the gain outweighs the loss,"

After Mei Jingzhi handed over the horse to a school lieutenant, she said with her hands behind her back, "He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, honesty does not deceive me."

Lin Yi waited for the dishes to be served, and then started drinking on his own.

While drinking, he said to Cheng Duo'er, who was pouring wine, "You don't need to serve here, you go and see the family members of King Jin, don't neglect them."

Cheng Duo'er hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates have already arranged them in the wing room upstairs. After washing up, they are eating now."

The only thing I'm not sure about is how to place Su Xin, I don't know if I should send it directly to the room with the prince,
However, in the end, he still didn't make his own claim.

Rarely confused.

This is what his master Hu Shilu taught them. Sometimes people who think they are smart will not end well.

Lin Yi raised his head, looked at the empty lobby, and said, "Please invite General Mei in."

"Yes."

Only then did Cheng Duo'er walk to the entrance of the hall, and said to Mei Jingzhi and the others who were standing not far away, "I invite you to my lord."

"Thank you."

The King of Nanling bowed his hands politely to Cheng Duoer.

Cheng Duo'er smiled and said, "Your Highness is polite."

No wonder I told the prince that the Nanling King has become smarter.

Headed by Mei Jingzhi, the three stood in front of Lin Yi respectfully, Lin Yi raised his hand and said, "You're welcome, sit down, it's cold, drink some wine to warm up."

"Thank you, Regent."

The three said in unison.

King Nanling didn't sit down in a hurry, picked up the jug, and poured wine one by one, starting with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said with a smile, "Brother Seventh Emperor, you are a man of wisdom. After you return to the capital, you can work in the Clan Mansion with Old Twelve and Brother Sixth Emperor."

"what"

Happiness came so suddenly, King Nanling was a little caught off guard.

Pu Tong knelt down and shook his head three times, "Thank you Regent for your kindness."

Is this a blessing in disguise?

"I'm a straight-talking person, so don't worry about it. A thousand pieces of gold buys a horse bone. I hope you don't turn into horse dung."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Right now, he has completed the formal unification of the Liang Kingdom, and the most important job has become economic development, sorting out the political relations that are unclear and chaotic. , but also to win over, give a date with a stick.

It's still the previous idea: unite all forces that can be united.

If you don't want to unite with him, you have to try his iron fist.

"."

King Nanling couldn't laugh or cry.

Do you want to thank you?

Finally, after hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will never disappoint the Regent!"

King Jin eagerly said, "I am also willing to ruin my heart for the regent!"

"you?"

Lin Yi gave him a disdainful glance, but then he thought of his eloquent spirit of sharing, so he softened his words and said soothingly, "You, after returning to the capital, take a good rest, don't worry about anything, take your time, In the future, there will be plenty of places where I can rely on you."

"Thank you, Regent."

King Jin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Lin Yi looked at Mei Jingzhi again, "It's the same with General Mei, it's the best way to take care of your grandchildren."

"I am very grateful."

Mei Jingzhi cupped her hands.

The snow stopped during the night.

As a result, when everyone was on their way the next day, heavy snow arrived unexpectedly again.

It was not until Ankang City that I saw the bright sun.

After Lin Yi returned to the mansion, he slept straight into the next night.

"But I'm exhausted,"

Lin Yi rubbed his shoulders against Mingyue, "From now on, I will never go out if I have nothing to do."

Mingyue smiled and said, "It's really rare for the prince to persuade you to surrender Pingcheng. The whole world sings about your benevolence and righteousness."

"What about the child?"

Lin Yi ignored him, "I haven't seen it since I came back."

Mingyue smiled and said, "I sent them to the palace with the princess yesterday, and the empress didn't like them, so they all stayed overnight."

Lin Yi frowned, "Did the old lady know about my return?"

Otherwise, why would you take the child into the palace at a pinch?

Mingyue hurriedly said, "My lord misunderstood, since the princess can speak, the empress likes it more and more, and has already entered the palace several times."

"Can you talk?"

Lin Yi said in surprise.

"Teach one sentence and learn one sentence, you are very smart,"

Mingyue smiled and said, "If you are willing to get close to your empress, your empress will naturally be happy."

"I see,"

Lin Yi continued to ask, "My son is just the age of recognition. Would he be happy if you weren't by his side?"

Mingyue said, "This servant also stayed in the palace last night, but today I heard Xiao Xizi say that you are back, so this servant came out of the palace on purpose."

Lin Yi stood up, stretched his waist and said, "Then let's go into the palace together, take a look at the old lady, and bring the child back."

After leaving the mansion, he got into the carriage and went straight to the palace.

The high-walled courtyard is clean and white, and the entire palace is wrapped in white.

The Ci'an Palace was filled with joy and laughter, and a group of concubines, Yingying and Yanyan, were not so much surrounding the two children as they were surrounding Concubine Yuan Gui.

"See the Regent!"

"No need to be polite,"

Lin Yi glanced at Concubine Tang Gui next to her, and then saluted Concubine Yuan Gui, "See Mother Concubine."

Following Yuan Guifei's wave, all the concubines retreated one after another, and even the two children were carried away by the maids.

For a while, there were only mother and child left in the house.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Mother Concubine is becoming more and more prestigious."

Concubine Yuan Gui snorted coldly, "I heard that you let King Yong go?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "You are quite well informed."

"Everyone in the world knows, do you still want to hide it from me?"

Concubine Yuan Gui stared.

"It doesn't mean that,"

Lin Yi stepped forward, took an orange, peeled it and said, "I just don't want you to worry about me."

"Yes, I am worrying blindly, but you are not worrying about this child,"

Concubine Yuan Gui sighed, "If you let King Yong go, aren't you afraid of letting the tiger go back to the mountain?
He is not easy to mess with. In the future, when his wings are full, he may not be able to miss you. "

Lin Yi said, "The concubine mother wants her son to bear the reputation of murdering his brother?"

"I think back then, it's not like your father didn't do it, so who still mentions it now?"

Concubine Yuan Gui didn't care and said, "You listen to my palace and make a decision early, so that you won't lose anything in the future."

Lin Yi shook his head and said, "The son naturally has his own considerations, and it's better for the concubine mother not to ask."

"Okay, I don't care,"

Concubine Yuan Gui asked tentatively, "Then let me ask you, when are you going to ascend the throne?"

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and said honestly, "Son hasn't thought about it, at least not for the time being."

Concubine Yuan Gui said, "Are you worried about your father?

As long as you are willing, it doesn't matter if he sits in Zen!

Wasn't it the same for the prince back then? "

"So the crown prince failed,"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Concubine Mother, my son is not a fool, so let him follow his own rules, you, just take good care of him in the palace."

Concubine Yuan Gui said angrily, "Anyway, I don't understand your rules.

Everything is ready in front of you, why are you hesitating? "

Lin Yi said casually, "I'm really enthroned, and I have to go to court early every day. It's not like you don't know how lazy my son is, and I'm sure I can't get up so early."

"Is what you said true?"

Concubine Yuan Gui thought of many reasons, but she never thought of it because of this and this!

Because I don't want to go to the early court, I don't want to be the emperor!

What a reason!
"Not only that, but you have to review the memorials every day. You know how tired the father is,"

Lin Yi wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then said, "My son doesn't want to follow in his footsteps."

"Bastard!"

Concubine Yuan Gui gritted her teeth.

Lin Yi stepped forward to comfort him, "Mother and concubine calm down, since you asked, I will tell the truth. If I tell the truth, if you are angry again, it will be too boring."

"You back off,"

Concubine Yuan Gui still said angrily, "I am exhausted."

"The son is gone?"

After Lin Yi finished speaking cautiously, seeing that his old lady still ignored him, he left Ci'an Palace helplessly.

"My lord."

Xiao Xizi hurried over to greet her.

Lin Yi asked, "How is my father's health at this stage?"

Xiao Xizi hurriedly said, "Your Majesty had a cold a few days ago, but now he has recovered, and practice sword every day when he has free time."

"Then go and have a look."

Lin Yi walked towards Qilin Palace again.

Inside the Qilin Palace.

The father and son looked at each other, Lin Yi finally couldn't bear the dullness, and said first, "I heard that the father caught a cold a few days ago, and my son was very worried, so I came to see it."

Emperor Delong said lightly, "I have already written the edict of the Zen position, you can use the seal yourself."

"Ok?"

Lin Yi was surprised.

Why are so many people looking forward to their enthronement today?

"how?"

Emperor Delong snorted coldly, "Do you have to let me drink poisoned wine before you can ascend the throne?"

Lin Yi waved his hands and said, "Father misunderstood, son didn't mean that, son really doesn't want to be emperor, you, relax, you still live in this Qilin Palace."

Even if he does become emperor one day, he will not live in the palace.

Living in such a big place is suffocating.

"Now that you have unified Kyushu, what are you waiting for?"

Emperor Delong was also puzzled.

"With the royal father around, the son can be protected by the royal father's wings, so why go out and experience the storm?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "My son is telling the truth."

Emperor Delong frowned and said, "I can't understand you more and more, what are you going to do?"

"My son doesn't want to do anything. He really wants to be lazy. He doesn't want to go to the morning court, he doesn't want to approve memorials, and he doesn't want to listen to people's noise,"

Lin Yi sighed, "I just want to sleep until I wake up naturally, and count the money until my hands cramp."

Of course, it would be even better if I could spend the spring night in the Furong tent, and occasionally write novels.

His novel about the son-in-law of the soldier king seems to be broken?
The sales of that novel in the imitation are very good, and it was once expensive in Ankang City.

Hey!
This time I can no longer be salted fish, I have to continue to update!
The people of Ankang City in the province called him a dog eunuch!
