Lin Ye didn't expect to meet the lost young man in the capital, but fortunately, he led him to the right path in the end.
However, An Zisheng's words about a first-grade bachelor made him unhappy all of a sudden.
"I have to thank Mr. Lin for this. If Mr. Lin didn't wake me up, how could I be where I am today."
An Zisheng thanked Lin Ye. Although An Zisheng's expression was very sincere and did not seem to be hypocritical, Lin Ye still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
I am still a commoner, but this guy has become a first-class bachelor.
"This is all your own creation. The so-called master leads you in, and cultivation depends on the individual."
Lin Ye said lightly, and An Zisheng had a strange expression. Sure enough, after so many years, Mr. Lin has not changed at all, his appearance has not changed, and his way of speaking has not changed either.
"That's not right. Didn't your uprising fail? My senior brother died in the battle. How come you are still alive? Could it be that you betrayed me?"
Lin Ye's eyes darkened and he stared at An Zisheng. An Zisheng quickly explained: "Master Lin, when we were encircled and suppressed by the officers and soldiers of the previous dynasty, General Qiao asked people to take us scholars to evacuate, while he took other soldiers to cut off the rear.
"
"What do you mean? Please tell me carefully. If you miss something, I will cut you off."
Lin Ye was not polite at all when facing a first-grade bachelor, and An Zisheng was not angry at all. Mr. Lin was such a sweet-tempered person, wasn't this how he treated himself in the first place?
On the contrary, when the sedan bearers heard this, they glared at Lin Ye angrily, but An Zisheng didn't say anything, and they didn't dare to interrupt.
Lin Ye listened to An Zisheng's story and finally understood what happened.
After the eldest brother and the others crossed the river, the uprising did not go very smoothly and they were surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers. When the crisis came, the eldest brother asked An Zisheng and other scholars who had no fighting ability to evacuate first, while he was responsible for breaking up the rear and attracting firepower.
It was this operation of the senior brother that kept the hope of the uprising alive. After An Zisheng and others escaped, they dispersed to various places incognito. After learning the lessons of this uprising, they secretly began to develop their strength. When the time was right,
Only then did the second uprising break out, overthrowing the previous dynasty and establishing the Hua dynasty.
An Zisheng was one of the earliest veterans of the uprising. Now that the new dynasty was established, he naturally wanted to be rewarded for his merits and be named a first-class bachelor.
"Yes, I didn't educate you in vain. What are you doing here now?"
Lin Ye patted An Zisheng on the shoulder, as long as he wasn't a traitor.
"I'm here to see old man Zhuxian... Mr. Lin is no outsider either..." An Zisheng said halfway, and said to the servants and several guards carrying the sedan behind him: "You guys should retreat first."
After the servants retreated, An Zisheng whispered: "Mr. Lin, I just happened to meet you. I have news about General Qiao. General Qiao was not dead that year."
"Elder brother is not dead?"
Lin Ye also became excited. His senior brother was kind to him, and he had always felt very sorry for his death.
"Well, I just got the news. The previous emperor imprisoned a person in the forbidden area of the palace. That person was General Qiao. Although I can't figure out why the previous emperor didn't kill General Qiao, the person who revealed the news to me didn't.
He will admit his mistake, he was also with General Qiao back then."
An Zisheng was confused, but Lin Ye probably guessed the reason. The eldest brother and the former emperor were related by blood, and the eldest brother also had half of the royal blood in his body. Because of this, the former emperor did not kill the eldest brother, but instead killed the eldest brother.
The senior brother was imprisoned in the forbidden area of the palace.
"Old Zhuxian is a wise and reclusive scholar. After I entered Beijing, I came here several times by chance. I discussed some strategies for governing the country with the old man, and I was deeply enlightened. When I came to Zhulin this time, I originally wanted to ask Old Man Zhuxian
I would like to ask for advice on how to rescue senior brother."
Listening to An Zisheng's words, Lin Ye frowned. The previous dynasty had been overthrown. Does the senior brother still need to be rescued?
Seeing An Zisheng hesitate to speak, Lin Ye's heart skipped a beat, and he understood what the problem was.
His great achievements shocked the Lord.
The eldest brother was one of the earliest rebels, and many of the officials and generals of the Hua Dynasty were probably his subordinates. If the news that the eldest brother was not dead spread and appeared in front of others, the new
The emperor may be restless.
Thinking that the senior brother was still in the forbidden area of the palace, Lin Ye probably knew why An Zisheng came to see the old man Zhuxian for advice.
If this matter is not handled well, the world may be in chaos again.
But for Lin Ye, no matter whether the world is in chaos or not, he only knows that he has received favor from his senior brother.
What's more, several of them are related to the eldest brother. Knowing that the eldest brother is alive and imprisoned in the palace, they must have entered the palace without saying a word.
"You come with me."
Lin Ye led An Zisheng into the bamboo forest, and when they arrived at the bamboo house, they found that the ghost of the thirteenth princess had disappeared, leaving only the old man and the old man staring at each other.
"Why did you bring someone over when you were out for a trip?" Jiu Zuixian glanced at An Zisheng and asked Lin Ye.
"Two seniors, I want to tell you a great thing. Senior brother is not dead. He is in the palace."
Lin Ye spoke excitedly, but what surprised him was that both the old man Zhuxian and the old man looked calm, as if they had already known the news.
"Third Sister has just informed us that when Qiao Yuannian was captured and taken to the palace, the previous emperor had summoned the spirit of Third Sister..."
Jiu Zuixian explained it, and Lin Ye understood what was going on.
The previous emperor learned of the identity of the eldest brother, and probably wanted the eldest brother to surrender to the court. To this end, he summoned the soul of the thirteenth princess. The royal family could still do this. As for the thirteenth princess's
There must be some belongings from his lifetime in the palace.
But obviously, either the Thirteenth Princess did not dissuade her, or the eldest brother did not listen. In the end, the former emperor had no choice but to imprison the eldest brother.
"Senior, the problem now is that the senior brother is so great that the current emperor may have murderous intentions."
"Master Lin, Your Majesty is not such a person."
After listening to Lin Ye's words, An Zisheng quickly defended himself. Lin Ye glared at him, "If you talk too much, I'll kill you!"
Power can change a person. Lin Ye has verified this from countless allusions in history books.
"I haven't used my sword for many years. I'm afraid everyone in the world has forgotten that there once was a wine swordsman."
Jiu Zui Xian looked towards the direction of the imperial city. He must keep the third sister's only bloodline in this world.
"You know how to use violence as a big boss. Some things cannot be solved by force alone. After staying in this bamboo forest for decades, it's time to go out for a walk."
Old Man Zhuxian first insulted the old man, and then looked in the direction of the palace.
