At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and then Cheng Yi's laughter was heard approaching. Looking up, he saw Cheng Yi striding towards him alone.
Li Huan stood up, cupped his hands towards Cheng Yi and said, "See Cheng Baihu."
Cheng Yi waved his hand and said: "Okay, why should you and I be polite? After today, your position in Jinyiwei is no longer under mine..."
Li Huan couldn't help but was stunned for a moment and looked at Cheng Yi in confusion. What did this mean? Could it be that Jin Yiwei wanted to promote him?
Seeing Li Huan's reaction in his eyes, Cheng Yi said sternly: "This matter is very big, and those elders are determined to remove you from your post and put you in jail, and you will be punished..."
Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but muttered: "What a bunch of dog officials!"
Cheng Yi glanced at Lin Pingzhi and twitched the corner of his mouth, but he didn't pay attention to Lin Pingzhi. Instead, he stared at Li Huan and said: "In the end, in order to protect you, Master Qianhu decided to give you the quota to enter the capital.
It kind of made those elders shut their mouths."
As he spoke, Cheng Yi looked at Li Huan with envy and said, "Congratulations to brother Li Huan for being promoted to a hundred households, and also getting the opportunity to enter Beijing."
On the contrary, Li Huan had a strange look on his face and looked at Cheng Yi. Suddenly Li Huan said: "Master Qianhu, doesn't he feel guilty? Master Cheng, did you say that with my twenty thousand taels of silver?
, Mr. Qianhu can help me solve all my troubles, now..."
Cheng Yi smiled and said: "Isn't the problem solved? Li Huan, you have been promoted to Jinyiwei Baihu, and you can enter the capital, and the elders will no longer pursue the matter. Isn't it wonderful to have the best of both worlds?"
With a sneer, Li Huan said: "Master Cheng, we have not dealt with each other once or twice. Don't you feel bad for saying this? I guard Langqi Island and serve as the official of the Hundred Households of my guard station. If you want money, you can do it."
I have a lot of people, not to mention how carefree my life is, but it’s good now. I was sent to the capital thousands of miles away with just one sentence. As the saying goes, people are humble when they leave their hometown. In the capital, my so-called Jinyiwei Baihuan can be regarded as one.
What a sesame official!"
Cheng Yi coughed lightly, didn't he know what Li Huan said, if this was a good thing, it might not be Li Huan's turn.
Sighing slightly, Cheng Yi looked at Li Huan and said, "Tell the truth to Brother Li. The previous brothers went to destroy pirates and Japanese pirates at sea, and one of them was a relative of an old man. The old man refused to give up.
Master Qianhu spent a lot of effort and asked the commander to come forward to make that man a little afraid, but just in case, he specifically asked for the quota to enter the capital and gave it to Brother Li."
Seeing that Li Huan didn't say anything, Cheng Yi said again: "Now I can only feel wronged, brother. You can temporarily go to Beijing to avoid the limelight. After a few years, the person will be transferred or become an official. He will have thousands of households and a commanding officer to take care of you. Brother
You can’t come back anytime.”
It would be good to believe half of Cheng Yi's words. Even the reason why this matter was so big, Li Huan suspected that the person who was eyeing their Langqi Island was behind it, and that person was the boss Cheng Yi said.
people.
But one thing Cheng Yi didn't lie to him was that it was true that he caused trouble by suppressing bandits. Originally, if he had spent most of the money he earned to go around, he wouldn't have been so passive.
Li Huan's purpose was to make money. He didn't even have enough money to spend. He was really unhappy if he was asked to take out the money he got. In the end, he simply gave up the little one to protect the big one and asked Zhao Zhi to give two coins to Jin Yiwei.
Ten thousand taels.
Now it seems that Jin Yiwei's people are paid to do things. No matter what the result is, they at least saved him.
After glancing at Li Huan, Cheng Yidao said: "Brother Li, think about it carefully, either stay and resist the anger of the old man, or go to Beijing to avoid the limelight."
As he spoke, Cheng Yi seemed to have thought of something. He coughed lightly, glanced at Lin Ping and whispered to Li Huan: "Brother, don't even think about using off-board moves to deal with that old man. The death of a third-grade official can definitely be done."
I heard it from Datian, but we don’t want to personally lead people to arrest you when the time comes.”
Li Huan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes. To be honest, for a moment, he really thought about finding out the other party's identity, and then secretly killing the pirate who was raising pirates, hooking up with Japanese pirates, and pretending to be a high-ranking member of the party.
.
But as Cheng Yi reminded, this is not the end of the dynasty. Killing officials and rebelling is nothing. The residual power of Hongzhi Zhongxing is still there. Generally speaking, the world is peaceful. In this kind of dynasty Zhongxing
In such an environment, the death of a third-grade official will definitely shock the world. Even if the hatred for killing his father is irreconcilable, even if he is not weak in self-restraint, he does not want his family to be hunted down by Jinyiwei people all over the world, then
It's definitely not what my father's spirit in heaven wants to see.
Taking a deep breath, Li Huan said: "Let me think about it."
Cheng Yi laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "I knew Brother Li was a smart man. Three days later, when you have made your decision, you will come to Fuzhou Baihu Office to look for me."
Watching Cheng Yi leave, Li Huan suddenly smiled and said: "Xiao Linzi, don't you feel very aggrieved? Facing those high and powerful people, our destiny is like a chess piece on a chessboard.
The future has been arranged no matter what."
Lin Pingzhi, who had a young mind, heard this and said: "This is simply too much bullying. We are just destroying some pirates. How could we offend someone like him?"
Li Huan murmured softly: "It's wrong to be powerless. Maybe we really should visit this capital!"
Li Huan thought of the current emperor who ascended the throne at the age of sixteen. It had only been a year since he ascended the throne. There had been a lot of commotion right after he ascended the throne. Even in the far southeast, he had heard about it.
But he is a very interesting young emperor.
Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but said anxiously after hearing this: "Cousin, have you really decided to go to the capital?"
Li Huan smiled slightly and said, "Let's go, follow me to see Uncle Zhi."
For such a big matter, even if he has made up his mind, he still needs to discuss it with others. After all, once he comes to Beijing, the affairs of his family and Langqi Island must be arranged.
In the hall, when Zhao Zhi arrived, several Li clan elders and stewards had been waiting for a long time.
Glancing at Li Huan sitting there, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but said curiously: "Brother Huan, you are so anxious to summon me here, but what's the matter?"
Even if Li Huan told the news brought by Cheng Yi, the result can be imagined. Whether it was Zhao Zhi or several clan elders, the stewards' faces showed surprise and hesitation.
After pondering for a while, Zhao Zhi looked at Li Huan and said, "Brother Huan, what do you mean?"
Li Huan glanced at the elder stewards and said with a smile: "Actually, we have no choice. If I enter the capital, that person will naturally not be able to pester me anymore, otherwise what awaits Li will be that person's thunderous methods."
Listening to the meaning of Li Huan's words, several elders of the clan could not help but breathed a sigh of relief even though they were unwilling to do so. The Li family was not even ranked high in Changle County, so how could they withstand a third-grade noble?
