Chapter 18 Shameless
The bright sun covering Xuchang is a little like broken gold in every corner. At this time, the weather is not too hot. The people in the imperial city are working in the morning. It seems that only the two men in white clothes stand in the crowd.
Feidian intends to ignore King Rui's teasing or flirting, if no one has crossed this human flesh wall and continue to look for the place of the National Normal University.
When he passed by Ruiwang, Feidian saw that Ruiwang's eyes had been looking at him, and there was always a smile on the corners of his mouth that made Feidian unhappy.
Feidian turned his face to look at him with regret and asked coldly, "What are you looking at, stupid mortal?"
"My name is Yin Jiyu." Rui Wang said gently.
"So?" Feidian asked, "Are you telling me to take care of you?"
Huh? Why do you ask that? I'm just telling you my name. Yin Ji is a little puzzled.
"Because your surname is Yin, aren't those surnamed Yin all people who hide knives in laughter?"
"Haha...yes."
"...You admitted it so shamelessly." Feidian took a step back and distanced himself from Yin Ji.
"But... I think 'knife in a smile' is a good word, like those who can't hide a knife in a smile and only know how to express all emotions are the stupid mortals in your mouth, aren't they?"
...Is this an insinuated by him? Feidian was too lazy to argue with him anymore and took a step with a blank face.
"Where are you going?" Yin Ji asked.
Feidian was not willing to talk to him anymore, but after taking two steps, he found that the so-called Guoshifu really had no clue, so he turned around and told Yin Jiyu, "I went to the Guoshifu, but I couldn't find it, you know?"
"Go to the National Normal University?" Yin Ji was a little surprised, but he still kept a warm and peaceful smile and asked, "Hasn't the national master returned the official seal to Yin Sheng, and he has also been ill for retirement and doesn't ask about the affairs of the dynasty?"
"What? Do you think I was sent by Yin Sheng to investigate the relationship between you and the national teacher? Feidian asked coldly, "Well, I'm just here to investigate Wan Ling's death. You don't have to worry."
This answer surprised Yin Jiyu. He suddenly found that the man was just simple and not stupid.
"What do you want to investigate about Wan Guifei? You can ask me. I think I know more than the national teacher. Yin Ji said.
Huh? Really?"
"Why don't we find a place to sit down and talk slowly?" Yin Jixuan proposed.
Feidian thought about it and felt that this so-called Rui Wang must not be too bad to laugh so much. He can't subjectively judge whether a person is good or bad based on what Yin Sheng and his men said, so it should be no problem to find a place to talk to him.
"All right." Feidian nodded.
......
With the elegant seat on the second floor of the railing building, Yin Jiyu poured a cup of pear blossom brew for Feidian, and the fragrant wine cup was reflection of the surrounding carved beams and paintings, which seemed to be more noble than the palace.
"I'm curious about why Yin Sheng hasn't killed you for so long." Yin Jiyu took a sip of wine and asked.
"I'm curious that you are so lazy and don't seem to be threatened at all. Why is Yin Sheng so afraid of you?" Feidian shook the glass and asked.
"What, do you want to hear it?"
"Can't you say it?"
"It's not impossible..." Yin Ji said, "It's just that the story is too long."
"Anyway, I'm free, just say it." Feidian sent the wine cup to his mouth and took a sip of this pear blossom-flavored wine... It seemed to feel good. This Ruiwang is really not a bad guy.
"Yin Sheng hated me and was afraid of me because he robbed the throne that belonged to me," Yin Ji said. "The former emperor was my brother. Before Yin Sheng was born, he was weak and incompetent, and had no children under his knees."
"So it seems that the throne will be yours sooner or later." Feidian said.
"At that time, I was only ten years old. Yin Sheng was born. The royal brother seemed to have changed into a person and began to rectify military discipline, deal with state affairs, change the system, and forced me to hand over the tiger charm, because he wanted to pass the throne to his son."
"This is also understandable. How can it be said that Yin Sheng robbed your throne? It was just to see the joy of the previous emperor."
"Are you talking for Yin Sheng?" Yin Ji smiled and said, "There are countless empresses. Do you know why he has been childless until later that he gave birth to Yin Sheng and Yin Huan?"
"What did you do to his body?" Feidian asked.
"Haha, you're right," Yin Jiyu seemed to be very happy. "The queen of the royal brother is mine. She drugged the royal brother to make the royal brother infertile, but later the royal brother took a woman from Wuguo in the north, that is, Yin Sheng's mother. He was good at using medicine, found the queen's scheme, cured the royal brother, and gave birth to Yin Shenghe. Yin Huan.
"...Didn't you say that you were only ten years old at that time? How could you do such a vicious thing? Feidian frowned and asked.
"Because my surname is Yin," the smile on the corners of Yin's mouth has not been removed. "A man surnamed Yin will calculate when he comes out of his mother's womb."
Feidian nodded, and so is this.
However, at first, Ruiwang felt very good about Feidian. Now he knew how terrible he was, but when he thought about it, he found something illogical. He asked, "You tell me this, aren't you afraid that I will tell Yin Sheng when I go back?"
... Or did Yin Jiyu tell him this, which means that Feidian has come to the end and can never go back?
"Because he already knew these things," Yin Jiyu said indifferently. "Not only does he know this, but he also knows why his mother's concubine died. He also knows that after Yin Huan was born, I have been chasing and killing him until he got the imperial edict and the imperial seal of the emperor before I became the emperor. One life."
"You..."
"Do you want to ask why I once treated Yin Sheng like that, and he still didn't kill me after becoming emperor?" Yin Jihui saw Feidian's doubts and explained, "Because the tiger charm is still in the hands of the king, if he moves me, I have just a reason to send troops to usurp the throne, hahahaha..."
"You said the word ' usurpation' so naturally..." Feidian suddenly felt that Yin Sheng was very pitiful. With his uncle restricting him like this, he was just a puppet emperor who wanted to do nothing.
"In the State of Li, I naturally want to say something."
"But you can't move Yin Sheng, can you?" Feidian squinted at Yin Jiyu and seemed to see the deepest part of his heart. "You are like the yin and yang that make up heaven and earth, forming this state of Li. You restrict each other and balance each other. Ordinary people can't see your secret competition, but the ministers in the court are very clear, so if I guess correctly, The reason why you said you know more than the national teacher and didn't let me see the national teacher is that you think the national teacher is useless and will even drag you back, so kill him!"
Yin Jihui finally took off the smile that had been hanging on his face, and his eyes flashed with the same dangerous breath as when Yin Huan looked at Feidian... He looked at Feidian for a long time. Feidian just looked at him calmly. He couldn't see a trace of fear and the truth on Feidian's face. His face was expressionless and seemed to be more self-righteous than Yin Ji. I still have no scruples.
For a long time, Yin Jiyu finally laughed again. Unexpectedly, he felt that the man in front of him was more and more cute. He had the arrogance of nowhere and insight to judge the situation, but he did not hide these temperaments. He was smart and simple, and was extremely easy to use.
However, Yin Sheng will definitely not let him idle with such an easy-to-use person.
"Yes, you're all right." Yin Ji said.
"Am I right?" Feidian was suddenly surprised, as if he still wanted to guess which part he had guessed wrong. Did you really kill the national teacher?
"I didn't," Yin Jisheng said, "After Yin Sheng visited the national teacher last night, the national teacher handed over the official seal and died violently this morning. Do you think I killed him or Yin Sheng?"
... If Feidian hadn't been with Yin Sheng last night and met Yin Jisheng again this morning, according to normal thinking, he would have thought it was Yin Sheng.
Feidian suddenly worried about Yin Sheng. Although he was the monarch of the State of Li, what would the people in the world think of Yin Sheng's murder in order to recover his rights?
"You are so despicable..." Feidian said coldly to Yin Ji.
"Yes, 'despicable' is really an appropriate word."
The strong anger in his heart shocked Feidian himself. He calmed down and told himself that he was only responsible for seducing Yin Sheng, not for helping Yin Sheng deal with the king of Rui. The main reason why Feidian came out of the palace and met the king of Rui this time was only because he wanted to investigate Wan Ling's death, and there was no need to be angry...
"But you killed the national teacher, how can I continue to investigate Wan Ling's affairs?" Feidian asked, as if this was the real reason for his anger.
"I said that I knew more than the national teacher," Yin Jiyu said, "Wan Ling fell into the water for the first time that day, which was indeed the work of the national master, because she heard that the national master and the ancient fish princess plotted to control Yin Sheng. However, after the national master pushed Wan Ling into the water, she thought she was dead and she also left the palace, but I estimated At that time, Wan Guifei was not dead, but she climbed up by herself. As for the maid said that she fell into the water for the second time, and the purple marks on her neck, I don't know.
"...how do you know about the maidservant and what you just said? Did you also send someone to check it?
"I'm not that bored, but the people I sent to follow you told me these things."
"You sent someone to follow me?" The sound of flying electricity has been improved by one degree.
"Are you angry or do you feel ashamed that I value you so much?" Yin Jiyu continued to laugh, "Don't underestimate yourself. I was full of curiosity about you the first time I saw you."
"Despicable and shameless mortals..."
"Do you think Yin Sheng is not curious about you?" Yin Ji said, "Do you think he didn't send someone to follow you and investigate you? However, it seems that I and the poor nephew can't find anything. You are really a... mysterious man.
