Chapter 406 I speak very straight

After calculating by fingers, this should be Li Xin’s third time to come to Pingnan Marquis’ Mansion.

The difference is that when he came the first two times, the official master, Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, was not at home, but this time, he was at home.

Soon, the side door of Pingnan Hou Mansion opened.

It is normal for them to not open the middle door to welcome Li Xin. With the current status of the Marquis of Pingnan, there are probably only Emperor Taikang and Li Shen in the entire court, so they are qualified to open the middle door to welcome him.

The person who came out to greet Li Xin was Li Shen, a Marquis of Pingnan in blue clothes.

Not seen each other for half a year, Li Shen has lost weight compared to before, his cheeks are full of shrunk and no flesh. Obviously, in the past six months, he has been under pressure that ordinary people cannot imagine.

After walking to Li Xin, he first looked at Li Xin, then smiled and said, "Why is Jing'an Hou free? He came to my mansion?"

Li Xin said calmly: "I heard that the parents of Zheng's family in Xingyang arrived in the capital. Your Majesty ordered me to come and meet me. Another thing is that Li Shangshu has been ill for more than half a year. Your Majesty asked me to come and see Shangshu..."

Speaking of this, Li Xin paused.

"Is the health good?"

Li Shen coughed naturally.

"Old diseases, and I can't die."

Li Xin smiled.

"Don't Li Shangshu invite the officials in and sit down?"

Li Shen is the Minister of War, and now Li Xin is the Minister of War. In this world, the two of them are actually in a superior and subordinate relationship.

Li Shen made a way out.

"Marty Jing'an, please."

Li Xin was not polite either and took Chen Shiliu straight ahead.

Along the road, Li Xin and Li Shen walked side by side.

Marquis Jing'an smiled and said, "Why didn't you feel uncomfortable when you see the Marquis's wife come out?"

Mrs. Yu is in a very bad state now. She often sees Li Chun coming back to find her. She is a little dazed and has to drink medicine to sleep. She treats Li Xin as her enemy, so she naturally can't stand Li Xin.

Li Xin knew all of these through Tianmujian. He said this just to disgust Li Shen.

"The person who is not in good health will not come out to see Marquis Jing'an."

A playful smile appeared on Li Xin's face.

"Mr. Li, the lord has not been in the capital for more than half a year and has been staying in his hometown in Yongzhou. Does the lord know?"

Li Shen's face was calm.

"have no idea."

Li Xin laughed and said, "When the Xiaguan was in Yongzhou, he saw a young man. He said his name was Li Shuo. I wonder if the Marquis would recognize him?"

Li Shen changed his face slightly.

He really didn't know that Li Shuo had been to Yongzhou, nor did he know that Li Shuo had met Li Xin.

The Marquis Jing'an smiled and said, "If Mrs. Li knew that there was such a young man in southern Xinjiang, how would the Marquis say Mrs. Li react?"

The Marquis of Pingnan was finally moved.

He turned his head to look at Li Xin, who was about the same height as him, and even slightly taller, with a cold voice: "You'd better not do such meaningless things."

Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled happily.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter whether Mrs. Li knows it or not, but the current emperor still doesn't know. If I told him, there is another person named Li Shuo in the southern border. Marquis Li guess whether Li Shuo will repeat the mistakes of Li Chun."

Li Shen stopped.

He looked at Li Xin coldly.

There is a special institution in the palace. No one knows what it is. He only knows that it is commonly known as the Plum Blossom Guard, which is the ninth prison outside the Eighth prison, which specializes in killing activities. The little marquis Li Chun died at the hands of the Plum Blossom Guard.

The Pingnan Marquis Mansion has not been found yet. Who was the one who attacked the attack? In other words, the person who killed Li Chun was likely to be still hidden in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

Therefore, Li Shen is very afraid of the people of Meihuawei.

It is conceivable that if the current emperor knew that Li Shen had a son in southern Xinjiang and knew his name, he would definitely do his best to kill Li Shuo, and he would not live for half a year by then.

Li Shen's face moved, and then he laughed sarcastically: "So, Marquis Jing'an concealed Li Shuo's affairs from His Majesty."

"It's not just a concealment, but just leave a little more chip in your hand."

Li Xin turned to look at Li Shen and smiled: "After all, Marquis Li has been in southern Xinjiang for more than ten years. If there is a Li Shuo, maybe there will be a Li Fang and Li Yuan. Even if you can't kill him, do you think he is?"

"yes."

Li Shen nodded and had recovered from peace.

"Originally you were one of them."

Li Xin originally had the upper hand in this intrigue battle, but as soon as Li Shen said this, he was furious in an instant.

The Marquis of Jing'an turned around and looked at Li Shen fiercely.

"Mr. Li, say one more thing, I can guarantee that Li Shuo will die within three months!"

Li Shen closed his mouth very tactfully, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Young man, don't be too angry."

Li Xin had no expression on his face.

The two marquises, one and one small, soon arrived at the main hall of the Marquis’ Mansion of Pingnan.

In terms of scale, the place of Pingnan Marquis Mansion is much smaller than that of Jing'an Marquis Mansion. After all, the predecessor of Jing'an Marquis Mansion was the Prince of Qi, and the regulations are much higher than that of Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

Zheng Gui, the head of the white-haired Zheng family of Xingyang, sat in the main seat. When he saw Li Xin coming, he slowly stood up and bowed to Li Xin, "Zhenggui, Xingyang, have met the Marquis of Jing'an."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Mr. Zheng is a great scholar of the world. If he doesn't enjoy his fortune in Xingyang, why do he come to the capital to die?"

Zheng Gui was stunned for a moment, then smiled silently, "Marty Li was joking. I haven't broken the law, and I'm not sick. I came to the capital to visit relatives. How could I die?"

Li Xin naturally found a seat and sat down, picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and then looked at Zheng Gui with a smile.

"Mr. Zheng, I'm not a joke. If you don't believe me, please ask Mr. Li. You Zheng's family members can still go to the capital if you can't leave."

Li Shen sat in the second seat and smiled and said, "I heard that Marquis Li was following His Majesty's order to visit his father-in-law. Why did he speak threatening words? Does Your Majesty want you to threaten an old man?"

Zheng Gui smiled.

"I am over 60 years old this year. I have seen countless people in my life, but this is the first time I have seen someone who speaks as straightforward as Marquis Jing'an."

After Zheng Gui paused, he continued to smile and said, "It is even rarer to be able to live well when speaking so straightforwardly."

"Speak straight because there is no need to beat around the bush."

Li Xin put down the tea and said calmly: "What is the situation in the capital now? He can tell the old man if he can just take any official to the grade. The Pingnan Marquis Mansion is suspected of assassinating the late emperor and has been surrounded by people from the court. Not to mention the family of the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, even the servants of the Pingnan Marquis Mansion cannot leave Yonglefang. This is a place where the imperial prisoners are under house arrest, but the old man bumped into his head. Do you think this is a death sentence?"

Zheng Gui stretched out his neck very barely and smiled, "Since that's the case, please ask Marquis Jing'an to take action now and kill me."

Li Shen's expression remained unchanged.

He looked at Li Xin lightly.

"Marquis Jing'an is wrong. Who in the court said that Your Majesty was harmed by me? I am still the Minister of War. If I had not been infected with the disease, I would still be your superior. Do you know what the charge is to slander the general of the Pillar State of the Dynasty?"

Li Xin put down the teacup in his hand and still looked smiling.

"What does that matter? If I leave this door, I will not admit it."

As he said that, Li Xin glanced at Zheng Gui.
