Chapter 295 Two Roads

"Reason? Maybe I want to give an explanation to the Yin family, maybe I want to give an explanation to the courtiers, or maybe I want to give an explanation to the Song family. After all, Song Yunan, the lieutenant general of the Royal Forest Army, is the only adopted son of Song Xiquan, the veteran general of the country. , since the person arrested by the Royal Forest Army, how could he let him go just as he said? Wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the Song family? Minghe knows how to weigh the pros and cons best, and he will definitely not do such a stupid thing, even if the person arrested is Yin Jielin's daughter. "Ming Zhidu raised his eyebrows, emphasized his tone, and then said: "This is what I hate most about Minghe. Only trash can weigh the pros and cons and want to maintain a balance between the two sides. This world is supposed to be about the weak and the strong, but he wants to make a concession. How is it possible for everyone to live well? It is simply a daydream!"

Meng Zaishi lowered his eyes and said nothing, silently digesting King Yuanjin's angry words in his heart.

Unexpectedly, the next second I heard my master change the subject: "It is said that Lord Hongying has been summoned to return to the Northern Liao Palace?"

"Yes," he quickly replied after coming back to his senses: "The chess leader said that they would leave directly after attending the Daliang Full Moon Banquet and would not come to the East China Sea to say goodbye to you. He estimated that they might have left the capital and headed north by this time. ."

"The new emperor of Northern Liao couldn't hold himself back anymore," Ming Zhidu squinted his eyes and looked far away, "I don't know whether Wan Ruotan's trip will lead to life or death."

Tingxian Building, fifth floor, Zhifeng Pavilion.

"Master, when the four subordinates arrived at the South Street of the Imperial Palace, they did not find the whereabouts of Miss Yin and her companions. There were only six teams of imperial guards who surrounded the residence of the governor Shijia on the inside of South Street. In addition, there were Many people from the Antai Division and the Jiufu Division came in and out, and before we came back, we saw the carriage from Dali Temple going straight to the house." Ye Er said first.

Ye San, who was hiding in the dark, also answered: "And there are no signs of fighting in the entire Imperial Palace South Street. Miss Yin and the others must not have been captured. I don't know what happened to the Yin family's house. When I got close, there was a strong smell. The stinky smell of corpses and blood is coming, and I think there are many casualties."

"Yes, we also heard from the Antaisi people that they wanted to invite the couple to come over!" Nie Lu agreed.

Nie Yuan thought for a while and met Chi Linjing's gaze. "My subordinates were careful before coming back. When they were crossing South Street, they went to Yin Mansion to take a look. There was indeed no one in the courtyard. Only Xu Da was sitting in the main hall. The master and Mr. Qingyue are probably waiting for Miss Yin and the others."

Chi Linjing nodded slightly to Nie Yuan, and then looked at Nie Lu. His eyes had long since returned to calmness, and he no longer had the anxiety that he had when he first heard about this. At this time, he leaned back on the chair calmly, tapping his fingers on the tea table rhythmically from time to time, as if he had some realization.

Nie Renxi gritted his teeth and scratched his head. Hearing this clueless news, he cursed inwardly that it was useless and sighed.

"There are two ways now." Chi Linjing raised his eyes, stared at Nie Renxi, and suddenly said something nonsensical.

"What?" Nie Renxi's eyes became more and more confused, "What two ways?"

Seeing Chi Linjing regaining his usual calmness, he cursed again: He is really anti-human and has no emotions. But I still don't understand what Chi Linjing said about the two roads.

"First, you can go into the palace, start from Emperor Chongwen, and with the idea of ​​claiming credit after holding the full moon banquet, go and observe what the atmosphere is like in the palace now, and then make insinuations to test whether Emperor Chongwen knows. The whereabouts of Yin Luo and the others. But this method is somewhat risky. Something happened to the Shi family, the third-rank governor of the palace, and Emperor Chongwen must be upset and unhappy at the moment. If you go to ask for credit and reward when he is upset, it is very likely that You will be beaten out. And even if you ask about Yin Luo's whereabouts, Emperor Chongwen may think that you are overstepping the rules and will be designated to have some grudges against Tingxian Tower in the future. Second, you can also go to Palace South Street and the Yin family. Under the guise of going to see Xu Lanyun to admire the moon, you might be able to find out the whereabouts of Yin Luo and the others by talking to the imperial guards. If the imperial guards asked you how you knew Xu Lanyun, the imperial envoy, was here, you would just make it up. It's a lie, saying that you can count, or that you saw her leaving Dali Temple in a carriage and following her all the way here. But this method is also somewhat risky. Just listen to the meaning of the secret agent's words, and something must have happened to the governor's family. It's very bloody and terrifying, and Xu Lanyun should be worried about this matter now, but the playboy and dissolute young master of the Nie family went to the scene of the murder to invite her to admire the moon. From then on, your image in her mind will most likely become very bad. .”

Chi Linjing raised two fingers. After calmly but seriously analyzing the pros and cons of the two methods for Nie Renxi, he calmly asked again: "Which one do you choose?"

Nie Renxi opened his mouth wide, revealing two rows of neat white teeth.

"No, Chi Ye, are you my brother? How could you push your brother to jump into the fire pit? Both of these paths are obviously stupid. Didn't you wake up? How could you come up with such a stupid idea? Something happened to the Governor Shi's family, so I went to the palace in such a big way, wasn't I looking for death? Also, although I am happy with the beauty Xu, I am not the one who will interfere with other people's business, just because she was wearing that pink dress at the state banquet today. The gauze skirt is as beautiful as a fairy, so I chased her to the scene of the murder and asked her to admire the moon. Am I mentally ill? If I really do this, how can I meet Xu Da in the future? Why is Tingxianlou still in Beijing? develop?"

Chi Linjing was a little calmer than before, "Don't worry, whether you go to the palace or the Yin family today, it will not affect the development of Tingxian Tower in Shangjing, because something happened to the Shi family, Emperor Chongwen Or Dali Temple will definitely conceal this news together, so that it will not spread to the public and disturb the hearts of the people. Therefore, after this case occurs, whether you go to meet Emperor Chongwen or go to your Xu Damei, there will be no Many people know about it, so naturally it won’t affect Tingxianlou’s business.”

Following Chi Linjing's calm tone, Nie Renxi couldn't help but be lost in thought, and this picture gradually emerged in his mind -

Emperor Chongwen sat on the dragon chair with anger on his face, raised his hand and waved all the memorials on the table to the ground: "Young master of the Nie family, do you have this much ambition? In less than six hours after the full moon banquet, you will enter the palace in person Did you come to me to ask for a reward?"

Nie Renxi answered bravely: "Aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will forget it in two days?"

"How dare you make sophistry after disturbing my sleep?"

"Your Majesty Caomin looks sad, and he doesn't look like he can sleep. Moreover, Caomin is not here just to ask for rewards. Did something happen to the governor Shi Jia who was absent from the full moon banquet tonight? Caomin has just entered the palace. When I was passing through South Street, I saw that the Imperial Guards had blocked that place. When I was passing by Yin Mansion, I came to visit and was told that Yin Luo had gone to South Street and had not come back. The common people were a little worried. I wonder if Your Majesty could tell the truth? It would also help the common people. The knot in my heart.”

"Bastard!" Emperor Chongwen was furious. He stood up, pointed at Nie Renxi, and shouted: "When did a young owner of a small inn dare to be so presumptuous in front of me? Come here - drag him out and kill him -"

Nie Renxi shuddered and his thoughts were brought back to reality. He looked at Chi Linjing and sniffed unconsciously, "That..."
