Chapter 439: Integrity and Cunning
Li Xin himself knows that he is not very easy to meddle in this kind of thing, but for the sake of this affection, if Cui Jiuniang has the heart to enter the palace, he is still willing to do his best to promote this matter, but Cui Jiuniang is unwilling, he can only forget it.
Li Xin nodded slightly: "Okay, the little brother will leave first." ”
Jiuniang saluted.
Li Xin walked out of this alley with his hands in his hands, and there were several guards from the Marquis of Jing'an waiting for him outside.
"Miss is going to stay here for a few days, you bring some people to protect Miss here."
Several guards nodded respectfully.
"Yes."
Many of these guards in the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion were found by Li Xin from the retired Yulinwei veterans, and their quality was very good, and they were very easy to use.
The carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an slowly started and left Qinhuai Fang.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the Pingnan Hou Mansion.
At this time, the Pingnan Hou Mansion is full of white flags, and you can faintly hear the crying inside when you stand at the door of the house, of course, the Pingnan Hou Mansion has no direct descendants on the bright side, and the people who are crying inside now are all invited for money.
So crying is very hard.
Li Xin walked to the gate of the mansion and saw a young man in filial piety clothes, standing at the door, bowing respectfully to passers-by.
Li Xin walked up and asked, "Who is this brother?" ”
"In Xia Li Zhen."
Li Xin glanced at him in surprise: "You are also surnamed Li?" ”
He originally thought that the funeral of the Pingnan Hou Mansion was presided over by Taikang Tianzi, but he didn't expect that it was really the surname Li who was doing it.
This Li Zhen bowed his head slightly, and said respectfully: "My father, Li Ye, is here to deal with the aftermath of the Pingnan Hou Mansion." ”
Li Xin secretly complained.
Li Ye is Li Shen's cousin, Li Shen has no one in the family, and he should indeed preside over this funeral, but now that the Pingnan Hou Mansion is so sensitive in the court, this old man should not interfere in any case.
This old man Li was dismissed some time ago, and he is restless at this time, if he continues like this, he may really be killed by Taikang Tianzi!
Thinking of this, Li Xin bowed his head slightly: "Is Lord Fujun inside?" ”
Li Zhen returned the salute respectfully.
"My father is already a white body, not a prince, and he is dealing with things inside at the moment."
Li Xin stepped in.
To tell the truth, although the funeral of the Pingnan Hou Mansion was very grand, not many people came, and the current Pingnan Hou Mansion has been burned to a ruin, leaving only one or two courtyards in the corner that survived, which looked very desolate.
The funeral was held in this small surviving courtyard.
Jing'an Hou walked directly to this courtyard and saw Li Ye, who was commanding his subordinates to hang lanterns, and the old man Li had a few more gray hairs on his head at this time, but he was still meticulous and serious in doing things.
Li Xin clasped his hands in his sleeves and stood quietly behind the old man.
To be honest, he doesn't have any ill feelings towards Li Ye, the only bad impression is that he once persuaded himself to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
At the beginning, this old man was a high-powered Jing Zhaoyin, and it was just a matter of eyes to kill or force Li Xin, but he chose to sit down and reason with Li Xin, which was not easy.
"Lord Fujun, you shouldn't have meddled in the city."
Li Ye paused, then turned around and glanced back at Li Xin, and let out a long sigh.
"Do you think the old man wants to intervene?"
He found a place to sit down, bowed his head and said: "Even if the family is divided, the old man is Li Shen's cousin after all, his family has suffered, and he can't even have a person to take care of the funeral. ”
Li Xin also sat down, bowed his head and said: "If others say it, let others say it, no matter what others say, it will not cost the life of Lord Fujun, but if you have to intervene in it, in the future, if the Son of Heaven says a word, you may lose your life." ”
Li Ye smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, the old man has been an official for decades, this kind of thing can still be understood, the old man heard that His Majesty was going to hold a funeral for Li Shen, and wrote to His Majesty, and only after getting His Majesty's consent did he dare to come over to deal with the aftermath of the Pingnan Hou Mansion."
Li Xin stroked his palm and said, "The boss is noble. ”
"If you go out of the same door, you can't just ignore it for the sake of your life, right?"
Li Ye raised his head and said, "The old man has been reading books for decades, and he can't live up to the teachings of the sage. ”
To be honest, in the current situation that everyone in the capital avoids the Pingnan Hou Mansion, Lao Li Ye can still take the initiative to come to the door to take care of things, this spirit is very respectable.
At least Li Xin can't do it.
This is not just a matter of life and death for individuals, but a major event that has the potential to affect the entire family.
Li Ye glanced back at Li Xin, and said sullenly: "What is the Marquis of Jing'an doing here, do you see a joke?" ”
This old man is a very traditional person, and in his heart, he has always been angry about Li Xin's refusal to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
Li Xin smiled and said, "Passing by, just come in and have a look." ”
"Just do what you want, go home early and rest, let the court do a big job, don't implicate yourself in the disaster."
He hesitated for a moment and said: "The boss is the cousin of Pingnanhou, and the relationship is very close, if there is a mess in southern Xinjiang, the boss is also in the three clans, try to keep a low profile at this time, and don't show up again." ”
Li Ye snorted and turned his head to look at Li Xin.
"Yesterday, the old man went to see His Majesty, and His Majesty said that it was your kid who took out the old man's Jing Zhaoyin!"
"I'm here to protect you."
Li Xin gave the old man a blank look.
"If you continue to be in Jing Zhaoyin's position, once Li Shen escapes from the capital, you will be the first to die, and now whether Li Shen goes out of the city or not, it has little to do with Lord Fujun, you should put a drink to thank me."
"Li Shen is dead."
Li Ye pointed to the spirit card in the courtyard, his face expressionless.
Li Xin smiled: "What if he cheats the corpse?" ”
The predecessor's Jing Zhaoyin had a serious face.
"People can't be resurrected after death, he can't cheat the corpse, and when the old man buries the couple and the couple, Li Shen will be gone, and the Pingnan Hou Mansion will be cut off, no matter how much trouble there is in southern Xinjiang, it has nothing to do with Li Shen."
"You can't slander a dead person and rebel, Marquis Jing'an, don't you say?"
Li Xin nodded thoughtfully: "What if Li Shen appears in Southern Xinjiang?" ”
"Li Shen is dead, if there is another Li Shen in southern Xinjiang, then it must be fake."
Li Ye's tone was affirmative.
"There are gangsters pretending to be Li Shen with bad intentions."
Li Xin clapped his palms again.
Last time he applauded Li Ye's affection, but this time he was for the old man's wit.
He originally thought that this old man was sacrificing himself like this, and he did not hesitate to bear a big responsibility, but he also wanted to hold a funeral for the Pingnan Hou Mansion, but now it seems that he wants to give his own vein out again.
The old man is right, once Li Shen's funeral is completed, and Li Shen appears in Southern Xinjiang in the future, then it is destined to be a fake Li Shen, and no matter what the fake Li Shen does, it will not involve Li Ye.
"It's worthy of Lord Fujun, amazing."
Li Xin clapped his hands and smiled: "It's just that in a few days, Lord Fujun is afraid that he will hear the bad news again." ”
At this time, a full thousand internal guards had already left Beijing, and their target was the Northern Zhou clan.
Among these Northern Zhou clans, the Li clan of Zhao County was included......
