Now Qin Dingfang relies on Prime Minister Lu, and he has to rely on Feng Liancheng.
Feng Liancheng smiled and introduced Mr. Lu to Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, this is the world-famous Prime Minister Lu. He is several years younger than me, but he has become the prime minister admired by everyone. His ability is comparable to that of the famous prime minister Guan Zhong Xiaohe in ancient times. Moreover, Prime Minister Lu is also proficient in martial arts.
Learning, this is something that Guan Xi and others can hardly match."
After hearing Feng Liancheng's flattering words, Mr. Lu showed an unpredictable smile and remained silent.
Lin Yi said: "I have met Prime Minister Lu."
Prime Minister Lu nodded slightly towards Lin Yi but said nothing.
The four of them stood outside the palace, each thinking their own thoughts and not communicating with each other. The scene seemed a bit awkward.
They waited for the emperor to summon them.
After a cup of tea, a thin man walked out of the hall.
It was the thin man who fought with Wang Hui back last night.
The lean man said to Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng: "Thank you for keeping the Prime Minister and the general waiting for a long time."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Master Teng, you always protect the emperor and worry about the emperor. That's why you work so hard."
Feng Liancheng also smiled and said: "Mr. Lu is right, we can't work as hard as Master Teng. Master Teng, just send a eunuch out to call us, why don't you come out and greet us personally."
Lin Yi saw that both Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng were very polite to Master Teng. He thought that Master Teng must have a high status, at least he was a famous person in front of the emperor.
Master Teng said: "The emperor has woken up from his nap and calls you in."
So Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng went in front, and Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang followed behind and entered the palace.
Except for a few gold-belted guards and two eunuchs and maids, there was no one else in the palace.
Several people were led to the side hall by Mr. Teng.
Entering the side hall, Lin Yi saw a man standing in front of the east wall.
Turn your back to them.
He has white hair and a slight stoop.
Wearing a golden robe with several golden dragons embroidered on it.
The man is admiring a piece of writing on the wall.
Feng Liancheng and Mr. Lu knelt down at the same time.
"Your Majesty, Lu Choumin, pays homage to your Majesty."
"My lord, Feng Liancheng, pays homage to His Majesty."
Of course, Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang had been warned a long time ago. They both knelt down and said almost in unison: "The common people pay homage to your majesty. I wish your majesty long live long live!"
The man turned around and said to Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng first: "My dear friends, please rise."
Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng stood up and stood aside.
Since Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang knelt down and bowed their heads, not allowing them to raise their heads or raising their heads without permission, they were both curious about what the king of the world looked like.
The emperor said to the two men again: "Get up."
Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang stood up and then slowly raised their heads.
The emperor's face also caught their eyes.
Lin Yi looked at the emperor with surprise in his eyes, and he was even more shocked in his heart!
Because this emperor turned out to be the old man who came back to steal the treasure last night!
Then last night he and Wang Hui were offending the current emperor.
If the emperor punishes me, it will be all over.
Lin Yi cried out inwardly.
The emperor looked at Lin Yi and said calmly: "Looking at your surprise, could it be that you have seen me?"
Lin Yi saw that the emperor remained calm and immediately understood that the emperor did not want to publicize what happened last night.
Lin Yi said cautiously: "When I first saw His Majesty's dragon face, he was so majestic and majestic that the common people were so frightened that they looked shocked."
The emperor smiled.
Feng Liancheng also laughed.
Lin Yi's improvisation made Feng Liancheng very satisfied.
The emperor looked at the two of them. He pointed at Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang with his finger.
"Are you the King of the North? Are you the King of the South? Haha, all the kings in the world are crowned by me. I really didn't know you were the King of the North and the South."
When Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang heard this, they each felt shocked. Could it be that the emperor was dissatisfied with their names.
Lin Yi said: "Your Majesty, this is a title given by friends in the world. In fact, I am just a martial artist. Who dares to call himself 'king'? After the common people returned, they changed this title. I hope your majesty will forgive me."
"
Qin Dingfang also hurriedly said: "Common people never dare to call themselves kings. They are all titles given by friends in the world. I will change it when I go back..."
The emperor smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. The imperial court has court rules, and your world also has its own rules. It's not a big sin to have a 'king' in your name. Aren't those strong men who occupy the mountains all called themselves kings?"
.I can’t even care about it.”
Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang felt relieved, the emperor was quite generous.
They both thanked the emperor in unison.
The emperor sat down on the carved dragon chair, and the eunuch beside him was busy pouring tea.
The emperor took a sip of tea and said to the two of them: "I heard that you, the kings of the north and the south, are half brothers. Since we are brothers, why do you have any deep hatred? Each of you has gathered people from all over the world to frequently provoke bloody killings. You wish you could put the other party at risk."
Where is the place of death?”
Lin Yi and Qin Dingfang looked at each other.
Does this emperor want to put an end to their "household affairs"?
The emperor said to Lin Yi: "You go ahead and speak more clearly. I am very interested in your affairs."
Lin Yi started from the time when his mother had no choice but to send him to Beifu as an infant, and his grandfather Qin Jin exchanged Lin Datou's son with himself out of consideration for his reputation...
Lin Yi told the story one by one. When it came to Qin Dingfang's rebellion and his mother Lin Honge's collusion with his uncle Lin Tianshu to massacre Beifu, Qin Dingfang became anxious.
Qin Dingfang was worried that the emperor would listen to Lin Yi's one-sided words and get himself into a situation of betrayal. In desperation, Qin Dingfang interrupted and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Lin Yi is slandering me with his bloody words..."
The emperor frowned.
Next to him, Prime Minister Lu yelled at Qin Dingfang in a sullen voice: "How brave! You spoke without permission before the Emperor asked you a question, why don't you apologize to His Majesty!"
Feng Liancheng personally consulted with Lin Yi in advance and gave instructions to the Emperor to pay attention to many matters, including the fact that the Emperor must not speak without asking questions.
However, Prime Minister Lu did not have too close contact with Qin Dingfang.
Qin Dingfang came to Beijing for a visit with a large amount of money, and Prime Minister Lu only met him out of courtesy.
Prime Minister Lu has a long-term plan and just wants to take this opportunity to overthrow Feng Liancheng, his political enemy. He is not interested in Jianghu affairs and Jianghu people, so he keeps a distance to avoid causing trouble.
So Prime Minister Lu just asked his subordinates to convey some of the face-sage's notes to Qin Dingfang.
It's not comprehensive either.
Qin Dingfang was so rude, making Mr. Lu very embarrassed.
Qin Dingfang was shocked and realized that something bad had happened. He knelt down and said, "I hope your Majesty will forgive the common people for their ignorance."
Feng Liancheng laughed and said nothing when he saw Qin Dingfang making a fool of himself.
The emperor said: "It is not a crime for those who don't know. Get up."
Qin Dingfang stood up and did not dare to speak casually again.
Lin Yi then went on to report the whole story to the Ming Emperor.
But there is no mention of the fact that Lin Tianshu and the others are descendants of the Linghu clan. Firstly, there is no conclusive evidence. Secondly, no matter which clan they are, it is the same to the emperor.
After the emperor listened to Lin Yi's story, he was also amazed by Lin Yi's twists and turns.
The emperor said: "You are originally a descendant of the Qin family, but you have been the son of a horseherd for more than ten years. You originally wanted to avenge your master, but you did not expect that you are also a descendant of the Qin family, and in the end you became incomprehensible with Qin Dingfang, the direct descendant of the family.
injustice?"
Lin Yi said: "Your Majesty is wise."
The emperor said to Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng: "My dear friends, this matter is so bizarre that it could be compiled into a book."
Prime Minister Lu and Feng Liancheng also echoed the emperor, saying that this incident was indeed a twist and turn that was rare in the world.
After the emperor asked Lin Yi, he said to Qin Dingfang: "Now, tell me."
