Chapter 123 Sleepless Night

Li Xin and his many generals successfully returned to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, but the Qianniu Guard outside the Jing'an Marquis Mansion did not withdraw. Not only did they not retreat, but some inner guards in red clothes rushed over and guarded the Jing'an Marquis Mansion with Qianniu Guard on this snowy night.

Although Yonglefang is precious, it is not particularly large. The Jing'an Marquis Mansion is full of noble officials and nobles. The Jing'an Marquis Mansion is surrounded, which will naturally alarm these people. In almost an hour, the news that Li Xin returned to the capital and was "locked" in the Jing'an Marquis Mansion spread throughout Yonglefang.

Of course, some people are happy and some are worried about this news.

Li Xin entered the officialdom from Long and became an jealous step. In addition, he offended many people in the early years of Taikang. Although he was low-key for five years, he did not make friends much, so his popularity in the capital was not very good.

At this time, the Jing'an Marquis Mansion was in trouble, and the people in Yonglefang were more happy and less worried.

This news quickly alarmed Duke Chen's mansion.

The Ye family lost their backbone at this time. Ye Ming, who was the head of the family, was still guarding the grave for his father in his hometown of Ningling. However, after three months of mourning, Ye Lin, the fourth young man from the Ye family, returned to the capital. After receiving the news, he set off for the Jing'an Marquis Mansion without hesitation.

At this time, the sky was already dark. Ye Lin, wearing a thick fur, rushed to the gate of the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion in snow, but was stopped by Qianniu Guard at the door.

The General of Qianniu Guard stepped forward and smiled bitterly at Ye Lin.

"Mr. Ye, Your Majesty has given him the order. Without His Majesty's order, no one is allowed to enter and exit the Marquis of Jing'an. It's so cold this night. You go home and rest, don't get involved again..."

When Ye Si Shao was born, the Ye family was in its heyday. He was the most arrogant group of people in the capital from childhood to adulthood. However, when he got older, he restrained his temper, so he was not afraid of this so-called uncle. He heard that, his hands were placed in his sleeves, and his face was expressionless.

"May I ask General Xie, what mistake did Marquis Jing'an make? As for the two imperial guards Qianniu Guards and Inner Guards, they surrounded his Hou Mansion and could not be fully covered?"

From the perspective of the situation, Li Xin did not have any guilt. When the Battle of Hanzhou occurred, the person who was the general of the North Frontier in the open was nothing to do with him. Even if he disappeared from Jizhou City for no reason, it would be a crime of leaving his post without reason. After returning to Beijing, he would be treated like this.

The uncle smiled bitterly.

"Mr. Ye, I'm just listening to the task. Why do you make things difficult for me? If you have any opinions, I'll just go to the palace tomorrow and ask Your Majesty."

Ye Lin took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "It means, I can't enter the Li family's gate tonight?"

Xie Jing took a deep breath, took two steps back, and bowed deeply to Ye Lin.

"Marty, we are also working for the court. Please don't make things difficult for me..."

Although Ye Lin has no official position now, he is also one of the "three heroes" of the Renchen Palace. Everyone in the court knows that after this time, this Ningling Marquis would probably climb to the second-rank stairs and become a real tycoon in the court. Therefore, even if Xie Jing had a sister who was the queen, he was very respectful to Ye Lin.

After all, the status of the two people is very different, and although the Hou tribe is a royal relative, it is still a bit worse than that of the Ye family.

Ye Lin groaned, looked up at the gate of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, and left with his hands behind his back.

At this time, the military newspapers in the southwest were only delivered to the emperor, and most people in the capital did not know what the relationship between the Hanzhou army and Li Xin was, nor did they know what Li Xin did. Otherwise, no matter how good the relationship between Li Xin and the Ye family was, Ye Lin would not have come to force this tonight.

Before he left, he opened his mouth to say something unfair to Li Xinming, but after thinking about it, he finally didn't speak and left with his hands behind his back.

On this night when the Jing'an Marquis Mansion was surrounded by the imperial guards, except for Ye Lin from the Ye family, he came to take a look, no one came to the entire capital.

Of course, Li Xin's popularity is not that bad. Apart from the Ye family, most of the people who have good relationships with him are his old subordinates in the Yulin Guard or in the Imperial Guard. The places where these people live are very far away from Yonglefang, and some of them don't even live in the capital, so they naturally cannot receive the news.

…………………

The cold wind whistles.

That night, the wind outside blew a lot of noise. Li Xin, who returned home, did not alarm his family too much, but just quietly returned to the backyard. After seeing his wife and children, he took a hot shower and lay next to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess held Li Xin's rough palm tightly, suppressed the fear in her heart, and said tremblingly: "Husband, what happened...what happened?"

She naturally knew nothing about the southwest at home, but she knew very clearly that this afternoon, the people from Qianniuwei suddenly came to surrounded the Jing'an Marquis Mansion for no reason.

This had already made her feel uneasy, but she didn't know that in the evening, Li Xin suddenly came back from the northern border, without any noise in advance. The two situations combined together. Even if the princess is stupid, she knew that something must have happened.

Li Xin stretched out his hand, hugged the eldest princess in his arms, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, our family is a relative of His Majesty, how could something happen?"

The Ninth Princess slapped Li Xin’s chest and gritted her teeth and said, “You always hide everything from me. Now it’s this time, you still refuse to tell me…”

She felt a little aggrieved and said in tears: "We are husband and wife. If you have any problems, you should tell me. Even if I can't help you, I can still have a plan in my heart..."

Li Xin sighed, reached out and patted the back of her hand without saying anything.

The things behind it are not only complicated, but also complicated. Even if they say it, it will cause trouble. In addition, Li Xin himself is sure to deal with it, so he does not intend to tell the princess.

The eldest princess wiped her tears with Li Xin's sleeve and choked and said, "Husband, is it the emperor's brother who is going to attack our family?"

Li Xin smiled and shook his head: "What are you talking nonsense? Don't worry, there is nothing wrong. I came home this time to just accompany Xiao Ahan and Ping'er for the New Year. As for the guards at the door, it was also a misunderstanding. I will go to the palace early tomorrow morning and everything will be solved."

The eldest princess didn't believe it.

"If something hadn't happened, how dare Xie Jing and the others surrounded our family!"

Queen Xie is the eldest princess' sister-in-law. If we calculate it carefully, Xie Jing is still a relative of Li Xin's family, so they naturally recognize him.

Marquis Jing'an half lay on the bed and squinted his eyes.

"Yes, why did they dare to surround our family?"

When he said this, anger flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't help but be angry.

The old and young family in the capital city are what he cares the most, but before he returns to Beijing, the emperor has controlled his old and young family. In other words, if something really happens, he will probably have something wrong with the old and young family in the capital city!

This anger was well concealed by him. Soon he reached out and held his wife's little hand and comforted the frightened princess.

That night, the candlelight in the backyard of Marquis Jing'an was bright.

At the same time, the Weiyang Palace in the imperial city is also brightly lit.
