The Son of Heaven left Li Xin to eat in the palace, and Li Xin did not refuse, and sat with the Son of Heaven generously.

For ordinary courtiers, it is not easy to see the Son of Heaven alone, but for Li Xin, it is already commonplace for him to enter the palace as if he was going home.

But that's not something to be proud of.

Companion Jun is like a companion tiger, and if he gets too close to this tiger's moody tiger, no one knows what will happen next, but it is certain that at least for now, this tiger is not dangerous to Li Xin.

There is a high platform in Weiyang Palace, you can see a lot of scenery in the palace, Taikang Tianzi likes this high platform very much recently, so this meal is set here, it is not particularly gorgeous, there is only a low table, seven or eight small dishes.

and a small jar of toast.

Li Xin sat down, stretched out his hand to pour wine for Taikang Tianzi, and then poured himself a glass, and the two of them touched it, and they both drank it all.

After drinking, Taikang Tianzi glanced in the direction of Changle Palace and sighed faintly.

"In a blink of an eye, it's been almost a year since we started last year."

When they started last year, it was the month of the eighteenth year of Chengde, and it was already in the middle of October of the first year of Taikang, and it had been ten months since the thrilling palace change.

Ten months have passed, and the people and things in the capital have undergone earth-shattering changes, Taikang Tianzi is no longer the original His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and Li Xin has also changed from a small Yulin Wei Youlang general to a major figure in the Jin Dynasty military today.

Both of them are no longer who they once were.

Li Xin smiled and poured wine for the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty has worked hard this year, in comparison, the minister is much lazy, and in the past ten months, more than seven months have been hiding in his hometown."

"You're thoughtful."

The Son of Heaven drank a glass by himself and sighed: "So you always think too much, if it weren't for you in Chang'an, I wouldn't have been able to sit in this position anyway, and the amount of this capital will not be too much for you, where is the reason for you to hide outside for more than half a year?" ”

"It's not hiding."

Li smiled bitterly: "The minister had a miserable early life, and he and his mother depended on each other, and later made a fortune, so it was inevitable that he wanted to go back to his hometown to see his mother." ”

As he spoke, he let out a long sigh.

"In this life, the most regrettable thing is that my uncle and mother are gone, otherwise I can take both of them to the capital and enjoy the blessings."

The Son of Heaven poured Li Xin a glass of wine, and the two of them touched it.

"Don't say these unhappy things, come and drink."

Li Xin accompanied a cup.

"I'm not having a good time."

The Son of Heaven has a few glasses of wine, and he is a little upset.

"Since I ascended the throne, I haven't even slept once, and after moving out of Changle Palace, I haven't dared to go back to see it once, I always feel that my father is watching me ...... in Changle Palace."

"Your Majesty is too careful."

Li Xin bowed his head and said: "Since the first emperor left that edict, it means that His Majesty acquiesced to the throne of the first emperor, otherwise with the sage of the first emperor, we would not even have a chance to do it." ”

Taikang Tianzi was silent for a while, then took a sip of his own and let out a long breath.

"Listening to Chang'an, I feel better."

The two of them touched the cup again.

The Son of Heaven said in a deep voice: "Since I met Chang'an, I have encountered countless troubles, and each time I have turned evil into good fortune, I hope this time, it can be the same." ”

He was talking about the affairs of southern Xinjiang.

Li Xin smiled: "Your Majesty, rest assured, evil will prevail over good." ”

"I have already issued an edict to Ye Ming to return to Beijing."

Drinking and drinking, the Son of Heaven suddenly popped out such a sentence.

Li Xin was stunned, then lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise." ”

He had expected this, but at this time he had to pretend that he didn't know anything.

The two of them, the monarch and the minister, pushed the cup and changed the lamp on the high platform of this Weiyang Palace.

Eunuch Xiao was waiting on the side.

This scene was actually very common a year ago, when Li Xin often drank in the Wei Palace, but now that everyone's identities are different, this rarely happens anymore.

At least for now, the two of them are still having a good time.

………………

In the afternoon, Li Xin returned to the Jing'an Hou Mansion with some drunkenness, Zhong Xiaoxiao trotted out all the way to help her brother, and after helping Li Xin to the seat, she walked on her short legs and ran to fetch water for Li Xin to wash her face, and she was very busy.

After Li Xin washed his face with a smile, he reached out and touched her head.

"What about your seventh sister, isn't she with you?"

Zhong Xiaoxiao shook her head: "At the beginning, my sister went back with her mother, saying that there was still autumn harvest grain to be dried at home, and she couldn't live in the city all the time." ”

Li Xin shook his head, also a little helpless.

The peasant family's obsession with the field is very heavy, and the aunt of the Chen family will not be able to give up a few acres of land at home no matter what, and no one can persuade her.

Chen Chuqi naturally wanted to go back with her mother.

The little girl Zhong is a little person, and she can't go out at home, so she is very lonely.

He held the little girl in his arms and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are so well-behaved, I will take you to see Sister Cui tomorrow, okay?" ”

The little girl smiled and nodded again and again.

"Okay."

Li Xin stood up, ran outside to breathe, the smell of wine dissipated a little, he ran to the study to write a letter, and then relieved a general, sent to the palace.

There is nothing else in this letter, that is, Zhong Xiaoxiao thinks about Cui Jiuniang and applies to the emperor.

This procedure didn't have to go, but now His Royal Highness King Wei is no longer His Royal Highness King Wei, so I have to give him a little face.

After sending someone to deliver the letter, Li Xin went back to his room and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, after eating at home, Li Xin led Zhong Xiaoxiao out of the door and walked towards Qinhuaifang.

Delivering a letter to the emperor is just a procedure, in fact, in the current situation, don't say that he wants to see Cui Jiuniang, that is, he wants to marry Cui Jiuniang, and the Taikang Tianzi will nod without hesitation.

But that never happens.

Li Xin has no love for Cui Jiuniang, but simply misses her kindness.

As soon as the two of them came out of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, they heard the sound of gongs and drums, Li Xin glanced over and found that it was the Pingnan Hou Mansion, which was holding a funeral with great fanfare.

In other words, Li Shen is "dead",

The Son of Heaven is very efficient, and what he said yesterday, he started to do today.

Li Xin sat in the carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an, looked at the Pingnan Marquis Mansion full of white flags through the window, and the corners of his mouth showed an arc.

From this moment on, as long as the Great Jin Dynasty is still there, Li Shen is legally "dead".

Seeing Li Xin probing outward, the little girl Zhong Xiaoxiao also showed two big eyes from the curtain of the car and looked out of the window curiously.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Li Xin patted her head lightly and said with a smile: "It's nothing, two people I know are dead, and when I send you to Sister Cui, I still have to attend their funeral." ”

When it comes to the word "death", Zhong Xiaoxiao is a little low, although her understanding of the concept of death is not very clear, but after the charcoal seller died, she knew that after a person died, he would be buried and never come back.

"Does my brother know them?"

"Acquaintance."

Li Xin took her into his arms and smiled.

"But it's not very familiar."
