After returning home, Li Xin took a cold bath, and then hugged the eldest princess and slept beautifully, the next morning he got up, stood for an hour after the fist pile, sweated, he wiped his body with a towel simply, changed into a court clothes, and prepared to enter the palace to see the Son of Heaven.

When changing clothes, the ninth princess helped him sort out the folds on his court clothes, and slowly spoke: "After you came back from outside yesterday, you seem to have something on your mind..."

Li Xin straightened the crown and said with a smile: "If Da'an is today, the troubles in the capital are almost solved, what can I worry about?" ”

The eldest princess sighed and said, "What about the two people in our backyard?" ”

"Early yesterday morning, Pingnanhou was taken out by you, and he didn't come back, this morning before dawn, that Jade Lady was also taken out by Yu Linwei and disappeared, I don't know what you want to do, but Pingnanhou is your biological father in Chang'an after all, and there is nothing ...... in the house."

Speaking of this, the eldest princess glanced at Li Xin with some hesitation, and said, "If you don't like him, let's ignore them." ”

Li Xin sighed slightly and said, "Where is it so easy?" ”

"Li Shen's crime, you also know, although His Majesty threw him in our house, but I don't know how many people in the capital are staring, this is a big trouble."

"But His Highness is right, he is my biological father, I can't kill him is against human morality, and I won't kill him, yesterday I led him to the spirit of the first emperor, and he committed suicide by taking poison himself."

The eldest princess was helping Li Xin sort out the court clothes, but when she heard the sound of "ah", she took a half step back and looked up at Li Xin.

"Pingnanhou...... He's dead? ”

Li Xin patted her on the back and said with relief: "Don't worry, with me, it's fine." ”

The eldest princess sighed, fell into Li Xin's arms, and said, "Forget it, I'm not as smart as you, what do you want to do, just let it go, and I will take care of it for you at home." ”

The Marquis of Jing'an took her into his arms with both hands, and after hesitating for a moment, he said: "There is one more thing, I didn't want to tell you, but I thought about it seriously, how should I tell you." ”

Li Xin looked at the Ninth Princess and said, "His Royal Highness King Qin died yesterday. ”

Qin Wang Ji Yu, who is also the elder brother of the eldest princess, although he is not a sibling, but he is the biological brother of Zheng'er Bajing, after hearing Li Xin's words, she was not too surprised, but said softly: "I knew that the seventh brother would not let him go." ”

She glanced up at Li Xin and asked, "Chang'an, can I go to King Qin's Mansion to have a look?" ”

"Just go."

Li Xin smiled: "That's your eldest brother, you should go and take a look." ”

The eldest princess shook her head and said with a wry smile: "In the past, I didn't like my eldest brother, I thought he was fat, greedy for money and lustful, but a few days ago he lived in our house, I went to see him a few times, but I didn't think it was so annoying." ”

While the two of them were talking, Li Xin's court clothes had been put on, Li Xin lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and said with a smile: "Then I will go to the palace, you want to go to the Qin Palace, and you will go by yourself, don't forget to bring some guards over, it may not be safe there." ”

The ninth princess bowed her head.

"Be careful..."

……………………

Chen Sixteen, who had a broken arm, drove, and soon the carriage arrived at the gate of Yong'an Gate, Li Xin walked down from the carriage, and after a few words of Chen Sixteen, he walked into Yong'an Gate with his hand and walked in the imperial city.

Because of the delay for a lot of hours, it was close to the end of the hour, and it was almost noon, Li Xin walked to the gate of Yong'an Gate, and after explaining to the official eunuch of Weiyang Palace that he wanted to see the Son of Heaven, he was led by this eunuch to a side hall to wait.

The emperor does not have to go to the morning court every day, the rules of the Great Jin Dynasty, there will only be a large-scale court meeting every ten days, and the rest of the time the emperor generally receives important ministers and arranges his own time to deal with political affairs, and ministers of this level like Li Xin can go directly to the imperial city to ask for a meeting.

In this side hall of Hou Jian, Li Xin met an old acquaintance.

This person has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his skin is darker than Mu Ying, and he is a whole head taller than Li Xin, because when the Hou Zhi is sitting in the side hall, the courtiers generally only have one bench, and they don't dare to sit on the whole seat, only dare to sit on half of the buttocks, so this big man, a little aggrieved, sat on half of his butt on a small pier, which looked quite funny.

Li Xin stepped forward and smiled at the big man.

"Brother Hou, I haven't seen you for a long time."

This big man is naturally a former colleague of Li Xin in Yulinwei, the former general of Yulinwei Zuolang, and now the general of the left battalion of the forbidden army, and the loyal and brave Marquis Hou Jingde.

Hou Jingde was sitting in a regular manner, looking at his nose and nose, and after hearing Li Xin's voice, he suddenly opened his eyes, so that the last general hurriedly got up, returned the salute to Li Xin, and smiled reluctantly: "It turned out to be Li Houye." ”

When Hou Jingde first started to be the general of the left battalion of the forbidden army, Li Xin talked to him a few times and told him that he couldn't get too close to him, and it was best for the left battalion and the right battalion of the forbidden army to have a disagreement.

So much so that now that he sees Li Xin, he is a little embarrassed.

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled dumbly, stepped forward and whispered: "Brother Hou, now that I am no longer in the forbidden army, there is no need for us to pretend anymore." ”

Hou Jingde took a deep breath and smiled at Li Xin.

"Now Brother Li, you are developed, and Hou Mou of the Southwest War has also heard about this great achievement, the people in the left battalion of the forbidden army, everyone is red-eyed, and many people even come to me to make trouble, saying that my old Hou did not give them the opportunity to go to the west, and he complained to me very much."

Li Xin shook his head at him, and said with a wry smile: "Don't say such cool words, the 140,000 people in the right battalion of the forbidden army marched westward, and it is estimated that less than half of them can return to the capital safe and sound, and they are all fighting with their lives. ”

The two of them exchanged a few words of greeting, and both sat down on the buttocks, Li Xin asked with a smile: "Brother Hou is waiting here early in the morning, seeing that Your Majesty has something important to discuss?" ”

Hou Jingde shook his head.

"It was summoned by His Majesty."

Li Xin smiled: "Is it convenient to say?" ”

Hou Jingde looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he whispered in Li Xin's ear: "I didn't come alone, Your Majesty summoned two people in the forbidden army." ”

"Brother Li, you listened to Mo Qi, the person who came with me should be the one who is going to temporarily serve as an errand for Brother Li, the right battalion of your forbidden army..."

Li Xin nodded and said in a low voice: "Okay, don't say it, it's not good for Brother Hou." ”

The two of them talked a few more words and talked about the old things of Yulinwei in the past, and at this time, Xiao Shaojian of the inner attendant suddenly trotted all the way into the side hall and bowed respectfully to Li Xin.

"Marquis Li, Your Majesty invites you to come over."

Li Xin got up and smiled at Hou Jingde.

"Brother Hou and wait here, the younger brother will go to face the saint first."

Hou Jingde nodded helplessly, muttering to himself in his heart.

In this palace, I don't pay attention to a first-come-first-come-first-served, obviously my old marquis came here first and waited......
