Chapter 718 Everyone Goes to the Iron Eagle Guard Camp (1, 2)
After hearing what his old rival said, Wang Cheng put the portrait on the table and made another comment.
"It seems that this person's title of Chess Attendant must have some secrets behind it."
Before he finished speaking, he changed the subject and said with emotion: "I just didn't expect that Master would have any dealings with such people. If fate would favor us a little more, we wouldn't have to stay in Jiang Tingsong's hands now."
Lin Yuzan glanced at him dimly, and then revealed: "Jiang Tingsong also mentioned something inadvertently. A month before Gu Shinian passed away, the old man played chess with him and jokingly asked him to assist the prince in the future."
Wang Cheng heard the implication and sighed softly: "It seems that those people discovered Master and his wife and killed them because of Gu Shinian."
Lin Yuzan's sad memories were brought up again. His mood suddenly became low and even his eyes became wandering.
Just at this moment, he saw the unfilial daughter stealthily stretch out her chubby little hand, grab the corner of the portrait and pull it towards herself.
Lin Yuzan: ...
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help but frown and shouted, "Qing Jie'er, you are not listening again!"
Little Yining was frightened by the sudden words, and quickly withdrew his hand, pretending to read a book, then glanced at the old man quickly and quietly, still muttering to himself in a serious tone.
Lin Yuzan: (*￣m￣), what’s going on, my hands are itchy again!
Wang Cheng couldn't help laughing and shaking his head when he saw the little girl trying to cover her ears and steal the bell. He placed the portrait on her book and asked, "Qingjie, after listening to the whole morning's conversation, what do you think?"
Xiao Yining: (▼へ▼メ)
What a cunning old man. He was suppressed by her mother during the day and dared not resist, and now he is waiting for her here!
The two old men looked at the little girl in unison, as if they were ready to beat her up if they couldn't express their dissatisfaction.
The little girl gave them a look that said "you two can't succeed" and replied with a shake of her head, "Uncle, Qingjie didn't understand what uncle and aunt said! But Qingjie knows that uncle does whatever he thinks of, and his words are in line with his actions."
After saying this, she looked at the two of them proudly, wondering how they responded to the "Wang Yangming" theory she had brought up.
Unexpectedly, the two old men were stunned when they heard the words, and they thought for a moment, exchanged a tacit look with each other, and then pushed her and the "Records of the Grand Historian" out of the study like crossing a river and destroying the bridge, depriving her of the right to eat melons, and also told her the schedule for tomorrow.
"Qing Jie'er, tell your mother that your father and I will go to the Iron Eagle Guard Camp to visit your second uncle tomorrow."
Wang Cheng called Zhao Ya and led the little girl out of the study. Seeing her accusing look as she looked back every few steps, he reminded her, "Remember to ask your mother to prepare clothes for you. Don't wear this tomorrow."
Having said that, he closed the study door, ruthlessly blocking the kid's sight.
Little Yining looked at the closed door, raised his little fist, and finally left helplessly.
The two old men stood behind the window, watching the little boy's figure gradually disappearing, and they couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Cheng glanced at his old rival and said, "I met Leng Qingyin today and found that he is extremely sharp-minded. Gun Gun and Qing Jie'er showed a little difference from ordinary children, so he became alert. Qing Jie'er was frightened by his appearance during the day."
Lin Yuzan shook his head without commenting, "Qing Jie'er didn't react when she saw Ma Chao, how could she be scared by his appearance?"
Then, he sighed helplessly: "Knowledge and action are one... She must be thinking of something else. Sister Qing is too smart and too different. If she is careless, she will be remembered."
Then, he changed the subject and asked in a cold voice, "You showed the peace lock to this person. Is there anything unusual?"
Wang Cheng was puzzled when he heard this. He shook his head hesitantly, "No reaction at all. I don't know if you and I are wrong in our speculation, or if this person has forgotten the past like Master's wife."
Lin Yuzan was deep in thought and sat down again after pondering for a moment.
He looked up at the lazy 66 and said firmly, "Since the old man is sure that the former crown prince is still alive, let's continue this game slowly. When everyone is united and thinks there is an opportunity to take advantage of, he will naturally surface."
"Even if he has lost his memory, so what? When a person is surrounded by lies, when he finds the slightest clue, he will be in so much pain that he would rather die than live."
At this time, Wang Cheng seemed to be worried and asked: "If the former prince really shows up, what will you do?"
A strong murderous intent suddenly burst out from Lin Yuzan's gradually cold eyes, and even the air around him froze.
"kill!"
66 couldn't help but turn his head and look down at the man below who seemed to have a blood feud with him. He took out a perfunctory version of "Lin Yuzan's Observation Diary" and wrote a line of scribbled words: Having a tryst with a man late at night, wanting to kill him, but not having sex, whether to castrate him or not is up to the master to decide.
The study also fell into silence because of these decisive words. Only the occasional fluttering sound of a night owl outside soothed the mood of those in the room.
The night is as dark as ink, wrapping the city of Yanjing in thick silk. Lights dot the dull curtain, emitting a warm glow.
冷府
Several beams of light followed the swaying of lanterns and came to the front door of the main house. The leading woman took off her cloak, and her originally indifferent face was replaced by a gentle smile.
"Husband, how did the conversation go today?"
The woman asked gently, then walked slowly into the main room and stared at the man drinking tea in the room.
This person was none other than Leng Qingyin whom Xiao Yining had met during the day. At this moment, he had taken off his mask, revealing a hideous and terrifying face that was marked by the years.
He raised his eyes slightly, glanced at the person who was approaching, then returned his gaze to the teacup in his hand, and ordered slowly: "Tomorrow, I will go to the Iron Eagle Guard Camp, Lan Yin, you prepare the things."
Song Lanyin nodded meekly, as if she had already gotten used to his coldness and irrelevant answers.
She glanced at the maid beside her, and then everyone retreated, leaving the couple alone in the main room.
Leng Qingyin glanced at the empty main room, then stood up and spread his arms.
Seeing this, Song Lanyin's charming face flushed with shyness. She gently helped him take off the slightly heavy coat and said softly, "Husband, you don't have to wait for me next time. You are busy during the day, and you should rest early at night."
Leng Qingyin did not take the woman's concerned words to heart, and just said: "You will complain again then, I don't want to argue with you about these trivial matters."
"I was being willful. My husband, please don't hold it against me." Song Lanyin explained, turned to him, and began to help him untie his belt.
However, at the moment she took off her belt, something slipped off Leng Qingyin's body without warning, fell to the ground, and made a crisp bell sound.
This sudden scene made the woman stunned.
When Leng Qingyin saw the safety lock, he couldn't help but sigh: "I've grown old and actually forgot that I still have this thing on me."
As he spoke, he bent down, picked up the safety lock, and brushed off the dust on it.
He didn't notice at all that the woman in front of him was staring at the safety lock with her fingers frozen in the air.
Leng Qingyin subconsciously stroked the raised patterns on the lock surface and casually placed it on the table.
He suddenly raised his eyes, just in time to meet his wife's gaze, which she couldn't retract in time: "What's wrong with you?"
Song Lanyin suddenly woke up and hurriedly covered up, "This thing looks familiar, so I took a few more glances at it."
Leng Qingyin frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with what he said. His voice was still calm, but it contained a sense of oppression that could not be ignored: "Where have you seen this thing?"
Song Lanyin's eyes were in a panic for a moment, and then she replied calmly: "I seem to have seen this thing in a handkerchief friend, but she passed away more than 20 years ago. Husband, it's unlucky to carry this dead person's thing with you, so why not get rid of it!"
Leng Qingyin's eyes, as calm as a deep pool, slowly swept across his wife's face, and then he threw the safety lock on the table to the ground without saying a word.
With a crisp "bang" sound, the safety lock broke into pieces.
Leng Qingyin put on an intriguing smile and said gently to comfort her: "Madam, you are absolutely right!"
Song Lanyin's heart trembled violently as the safety lock broke. She raised her head and looked at her husband. But he had already turned around and walked towards the bed, taking off his clothes piece by piece, revealing a well-maintained upper body that was as strong as that of a young man.
Leng Qingyin noticed his wife's gaze, turned his head slightly, and said indifferently: "I need to get up early tomorrow, you should also rest early!"
Song Lanyin forced a gentle smile, responded softly, and then walked towards the side room without hesitation, where there was also a bed.
The woman turned around slowly, appearing a little stiff, unaware that the eyes behind her were filled with inquiry.
The next morning, the morning mist was still lingering, and the black iron gate of the Iron Eagle Guard Camp slowly opened in the morning light, accompanied by the sound of passionate drills. It emitted a heavy metallic sound, and a majestic man in heavy armor, riding a horse, showed his badge condescendingly.
As the man appeared, the surrounding soldiers immediately stopped their training and shouted in unison: "Meet the Marquis Xuanping!"
The man nodded slightly, dismounted gracefully, stepped on the frost on the ground and walked into the Iron Eagle Guard Camp. His hawk-like eyes casually scanned the surrounding training situation and finally landed on the observation deck.
There was a man leaning comfortably, standing with his arms folded, looking into the distance.
The subordinate beside him saw where his boss was looking and smiled disdainfully. He stepped forward and reported, "Marquis Xuanping, General Zhenbei has been serving as a sentry up there since early in the morning."
Xuan Ping Hou retracted his gaze and moved it to the person beside him, "Where is the person on the observation deck?"
The subordinate quickly replied: "He's coming down. After General Zhenbei leaves, he will go up to guard."
"Abandoning your post without permission will result in twenty military sticks."
Marquis Xuanping gave an order indifferently and strode towards his office.
As soon as he sat down, he showed a trace of illness from a serious injury. He coughed a few times, and then he swept his sharp eyes to the subordinate officer who came in with him, asking: "Who took the lead in the past two days, calling the family members to stay outside the Iron Eagle Guard camp and watch, disturbing the morale of the army."
The subordinates' hearts tightened, and one of them hurriedly stepped forward to report: "It was Commander Huang who brought two thousand households to ask for instructions from General Zhenbei, and they got approval."
When Marquis Xuanping heard this, a hint of sneer appeared on his face: "Although General Zhenbei and I are in charge of the Iron Eagle Guard Camp together, he is not familiar with the system here. And you, you dared to disregard military orders when I was away from the camp!"
The subordinate official was so frightened by these words that his legs went weak. He immediately knelt on the ground and apologized in a panic: "I failed to fulfill my duty of reminding you. Please punish me, Lord Xuanping Hou."
Marquis Xuanping coughed heavily a few more times, and a series of punishment orders were passed down. Soon, screams and pleas for mercy were heard in the Iron Eagle Guard camp, and the sounds echoed over the camp for a long time.
When Wang Lin heard the noise, he lowered his eyes slightly and looked downward. Then he raised his eyes calmly and continued to stare into the distance.
Soon, a line of carriages gradually appeared on the path in the distance.
Xiao Yining and his companions finally came to the Iron Eagle Guard Camp to visit Wang Lin as Wang Lin wished.
But their visit was different from the previous family visits. Wang Cheng met with the emperor overnight yesterday and asked for a token from him that would allow him to pass through unimpeded. Of course, the token was only valid for one day and had to be returned that night.
He placed the token with dragon pattern in the hands of Xiao Yining's little fat boy and reminded him, "Qingjie, please remember that we are not here to see your second uncle. We are here to deliver something on behalf of the Ministry of Works under the order of the Emperor. Do you understand?"
Little Yining stood in front of the old man, tilted his head, and looked at the convoy of winter supplies behind him. He couldn't help but sigh: The eldest uncle is really a good brother. He is willing to go through so much trouble to prevent the second uncle from being criticized.
I just don't know what my eldest uncle used to exchange with my great uncle. I guess it was all in vain more than a dozen times.
The little girl straightened her head, nodded heavily, and threw her high ponytail high.
Afterwards, she imitated the scholars, placing her chubby hands in front and behind her body, and taking small square steps to perform her official duties.
Lin Yuzan was speechless when he saw this scene. He complained to his wife who was laughing beside him, "Qingjie, this is so weird. If you want to dress up as a man in the future, I'm afraid you'll be recognized as soon as you go out."
Wan Niang, who was dressed in men's clothing, glanced at him and nodded in agreement: "My husband is absolutely right."
After she finished speaking, she stepped on the old man's instep without hesitation.
Lin Yuzan: ...
The old man lifted his foot in pain, not daring to make a sound. Wan Niang had already followed her daughter and came to the Iron Eagle Guards guarding the gate.
"Iron Eagle Guard Camp, no outsiders are allowed to enter, leave quickly."
When the Iron Eagle Guard saw the two men, one big and one small, who were clearly emitting the scent of rouge, he frowned and drove them away impatiently.
小以宁：?2?9?2?5?0?6?1?2?0?6?1?2?0?7)?7?7，她耀武扬威的时候到啦！
The kid clenched his fist and coughed lightly like an adult, then showed the Dragon Token and held it high: "Where is the person in charge here? This princess is sent by her uncle to deliver something to you. This princess' uncle is the emperor."
The Iron Eagle Guard was silent for a moment as he looked at the little kid who was not even as tall as his thighs. Then he reacted, bowed, and said respectfully, "Please wait for a moment, Princess. I need to report to the Marquis of Xuanping."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Lin's voice came from behind him: "No need, just leave this matter to me, the general."
Wang Lin smiled happily and bowed to Xiao Yining, saying, "Thank you, Lord Le'an, for your sympathy."
However, the kid didn't even glance at him, and continued to play the role of a public official. With his hands behind his back, he swayed as he stepped into the Iron Eagle Guard Camp, pretending to be calm and said, "General Zhenbei, don't be so self-indulgent. This princess wants to negotiate with the Marquis of Xuanping. Humph..."
王林：=?0?1?0?1?0?0?0?0(?6?7?4?0?6?7?6?4?0?1?0?3?0?3)，晴姐儿不是来看我的吗？
小以宁：(?7?2＞?7?0＜?7?2)，果然狐假虎威的感觉就是爽歪歪！！！
