After leaving Weiyang Palace, Li Xin's face was already gloomy as water.

In fact, he can understand why the Son of Heaven is so sensitive to that incident back then, and now that the Taikang Dynasty is peaceful and peaceful, the only black spot of the Son of Heaven is the palace change that night, so it is reasonable to taboo others to mention this matter.

But Li Xin didn't want to use that night's events to ask for credit, he just wanted to give the old Yu Linwei brothers a reasonable treatment.

There was no political component in this matter, but it was decisively rejected by the Son of Heaven.

To be honest, although the emperor has treated Yu Linwei's people a little badly in the past few years, he has not treated Li Xin badly, he has given almost everything that should be given to Li Xin, and even a little more, Li Xin also had some old feelings for this emperor before.

But today's conversation made Li Xin a little cold.

Reason told him that the emperor was just doing what the emperor was supposed to do, but emotionally, he was still a little uncomfortable.

After getting into Chen Sixteen's carriage, Li Xin sat in the carriage expressionlessly and said nothing.

Chen Sixteen drove the carriage and left Yong'an Gate, and only after arriving at Yongle Fang did he ask: "Master Hou, go home or go to ......?"

Li Xin had told him earlier that he would probably be busy in the military department for a period of time in the past few days, so Chen Sixteen asked this question.

Li Xin's face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "Go to Qinhuai Fang." ”

Chen Sixteen was stunned, then nodded, and drove the carriage towards the Qinhuai River.

It's still afternoon at this time, and it's spring again, the Qinhuai River is full of "young and thin-shirted" merry boys, there are many literati and chanting poems on the banks of the Qinhuai River, although there is no prosperity of ten miles of lights at night, but you can also see some fireworks in the capital.

Li Xin got out of the carriage, and he walked alone on the bank of the Qinhuai River in black, his face expressionless.

Although he didn't speak, and there was only a small guy around him, there was an inexplicable momentum on his body, and no one dared to approach a few meters around.

Li Xin strolled all the way and walked straight into the most famous proud building of the Qinhuai River, and walked towards the backyard of the Qinhuai River without stopping.

This was originally the property of His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and later His Royal Highness the King of Wei ascended the throne as the Son of Heaven, and these unsightly transactions are no longer suitable for holding in his hands, so His Royal Highness the King of Wei was very happy to give the proud building to Li Xin.

Of course, the price is 20% of the dry shares of Zhurong wine in Li Xin's hand.

Although Li Xin suffered a loss in this transaction, the scale of the operation of the proud building is not small, and there has been a lot of income every year in recent years, which is one of the economic sources of the Jing'an Hou Mansion.

After Li Xin entered the backyard of the proud building, he disappeared without a trace, and he never came out for a long time.

But half an hour later, at the door of an inconspicuous alley in Qinhuai Fang, a young man dressed in blue clothes gently knocked on the door of a small courtyard.

This person is naturally Li Xin.

When he comes out of the palace, the people of Tianmu Prison will inevitably stare at him, but Li Xin has not been in vain in the capital in the past few years, he has a complete set of "anti-reconnaissance" means, and at present, he should be able to get rid of Tianmu Prison's tracking.

In Tianmu Prison's information, at this time, he should have called a Qingqi man who had never sold himself in the proud building to vent his unhappiness.

But in fact, he changed his clothes and hat, and in this era without surveillance, it was easy to jump out of the eyes and ears of Tianmu Prison.

After a while, the courtyard door was slowly opened.

A gentle woman who was extremely thin and could still see a little bit of her appearance at a glance, stood behind the door, glanced at Li Xin, and said with a smile: "Why did Li Dashangshu have time to come to the little woman?" ”

This woman is naturally the big shopkeeper of the proud building in the past, and now Cui Jiuniang, who has been "missing" for eight years.

Li Xin also showed a smile on his face and said, "I haven't seen Sister Cui for a long time, so come and take a look." ”

In the past eight years, Cui Jiuniang has been living in this courtyard, because she needs to avoid suspicion, Li Xin can't come to see her openly, otherwise she will be suspected of cuckolding the emperor, but Li Xin is a very grateful person, Cui Jiuniang took great care of him at the beginning, he has always kept it in his heart, and he will occasionally come to see this poor woman over the years.

At this time, Cui Jiuniang is no longer as amorous as when Li Xin first met, and there is not a lot of heavy makeup on her face, and after removing all the fat powder, she looks a little sickly.

Pinch your fingers and count, the former big shopkeeper of this proud building is thirty-four years old this year.

Her appearance reminded Li Xin of Yi'an Jushi in another world.

Hearing Li Xin say this, Cui Jiuniang let go of her body and said with a smile: "There is Lao Li Hou Ye worried, come in and sit down?" ”

Li Xin shook his head and exhaled slowly: "It's not convenient for the little brother to go in, just say a few words at the door." ”

Cui Jiuniang nodded and said with a smile: "Then you say." ”

Li Xin stood with his hands down, as respectful as Cui Jiuniang's own brother, and after he was silent for a while, he spoke: "Sister Cui, there is one thing that my little brother can't understand. ”

"You say."

Li Xin let out a breath and asked slowly, "Sister Cui, can Enda become an enemy?" ”

Cui Jiuniang frowned and asked, "...... you and Your Majesty?"

Li Xin shook his head and frowned, "It's not me." ”

What Li Xin said is indeed not himself, he is talking about Yu Linwei, Yu Linwei is undoubtedly a great favor to the Son of Heaven, without Yu Linwei, the current Taikang Son of Heaven should be a vassal somewhere, and even like King Qi of Zhao, he was ordered to be confined at home and couldn't move.

But this kindness was not remembered by the Son of Heaven in his heart, but followed by deep jealousy.

Hearing Li Xin say this, Cui Jiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, she frowned and thought for a while before she spoke: "The concubine is just a little woman, and the concubine can't figure out many things, but when Li Houye asked this question, the concubine thought that if he really became an enemy, that person had no conscience. ”

"What the woman thinks, just listen to it from Hou Ye Li."

Li Xin stood at the door, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and arched his hand at Cui Jiuniang: "Thank you Sister Cui for your advice." ”

"Master Hou is polite."

Cui Jiuniang smiled gently: "Is that little girl okay, I haven't seen her for a month or two." ”

"She's so good."

Speaking of Xiaoxiao, Li Xinxin brightened up a little, and he smiled: "The little brother gave birth to a son not long ago, and Xiaoxiao is busy at home with this little nephew, and he is very happy." ”

Jiuniang nodded: "I forgot to congratulate Hou Ye Li on his happiness." ”

Li Xinlian said no.

After the two of them chatted for a while about Zhong Xiaoxiao, Li Xin looked left and right at this inconspicuous alley, and after a little hesitation, he said, "Sister Cui, have you ever thought about leaving the capital?" ”

"Leaving the capital?"

Jiu Niang glanced at Li Xin in surprise, and asked with a smile, "Where do you go after leaving the capital?" ”

The Marquis of Jing'an said in a deep voice: "Go to Danzhou." ”

"Danzhou is overseas, at the end of the world, no one can get there, I can arrange for Sister Cui to go to Danzhou quietly, and when the time comes, Sister Cui will change her name and surname, maybe she can live a normal life."

When Jiuniang heard this, she thought for a while, then shook her head and smiled.

"That's it, don't implicate others."

"This is the life of the concubine, and the concubine recognizes it."
