Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Fortunately, there are no outsiders now. If other family guests waiting for you to entertain arrive, and they continue to be so unscrupulous and wanton, it will only make people laugh. Brother Zhongxiao, do you think I should discipline them?"

Sima Zhongxiao was depressed and was speechless by Lin Yi. He could only smile reluctantly: "They should, indeed should be disciplined!"

If he dares to say that he shouldn't, it would appear that he is too low-minded and does not care about the Sima family's face.

How could such a person have the nerve to help participate in the fight for the crown prince?

"Brother Zhongxiao really understands the general situation and is different from those naughty kids who lack discipline!"

Lin Yi praised without sincerity, and then glanced around at everyone present with a sarcastic look: "Today's atmosphere has been ruined by the two of them. I don't have the appetite to taste the delicacies of Tianweixuan, so I'll take my leave now." ! Please invite Brother Zhongxiao to dinner another day!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Yi casually cupped his hands to Sima Zhongxiao, turned around and walked out of the hall: "Tzuyu, let's go! Do you still want to stay here to eat?"

"Oh, okay! Cousin Zhongda, wait for me!"

Liu Ziyu really admired Lin Yi in his heart. This simple and crude method made Sima Zhongxiao so angry that he couldn't get out.

And although Lin Yi said it was polite, in fact he didn't save any face for Sima Zhongxiao.

Today's banquet was held by Sima Zhongxiao in the name of entertaining Sima Zhongda. Now that the protagonists are gone, is it necessary to continue the banquet?

The most embarrassing thing is that Sima Zhongxiao, the front leg member, has just sent the invitations to everyone. Now maybe someone has received the invitations and is on their way. What will happen next?

To retain Lin Yi?

Sima Zhongxiao really couldn’t say it!

Neither Sima Zhongyi nor Sima Zhongli are efficient. If Lin Yi stays, the possibility of continued conflict is more than 90%.

Sima Zhongxiao couldn't afford to make a big fuss and lose the Sima family's face!

So...if it's over, let's do it!

"Cousin Zhongda, the two boys just now, one is the son of the eldest prince and the other is the son of the third prince. If they fight like this, there will be trouble, right?"

Liu Ziyu followed Lin Yi with a worried look on his face: "None of these two boys are good. They lost face in the hands of their cousin today and they will never let it go!"

Having said that, Liu Ziyu was actually quite happy. She had wanted to beat them up for a long time, but she never had the chance.

And he wasn't really too worried. After all, compared with his aunt Su Lingxin's instructions to kill him, cousin Zhongda just slapped him twice, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

"It's best if they don't want to give up. I'm afraid they'll give in and never dare to trouble me again!"

Lin Yi smiled lightly and shrugged nonchalantly: "They are just two naughty kids. I really didn't take them to heart. I was originally thinking about how to integrate into the Sima family, but they took the initiative to send them to my door. Liwei, what a good person!”

Liu Ziyu was speechless. If he integrated into the Sima family, he would just beat up the sons of the eldest prince and the third prince?

Use these two princes to establish your authority?

No wonder I was always ostracized by the younger generation in the capital. It turned out to be because I didn’t beat up a few princes to establish my authority!

Liu Ziyu scratched the back of his head and couldn't help but fell into deep thought...

Lin Yi didn't say anything more, he just slapped each of the two bastards. He was really merciful. In fact, what Lin Yi wanted was that all the people present, including Sima Zhongxiao and his group, would jump out to find trouble.

The same is to establish prestige, but the effect of beating two people and beating a group of people is definitely very different!

The reason why he wants to establish his authority is naturally to compete for the right to speak in Hongshang County, so that he can use the power of the royal family to investigate the whereabouts of Wang Xinyan.

Sima Yunqi's Second Prince's Mansion certainly has considerable strength, but Lin Yi has just returned, so it's hard to say how much it can utilize.

What's more, Sima Yunqi is much worse than the entire Hongshang County.

All in all, in order to gain the important status of the Sima family and the accompanying right to speak as soon as possible, Lin Yi does not intend to develop slowly and in a regular manner, so he cannot take the ordinary path!

"Ziyu, it's my first time to come to the Royal Capital of Hongshang County, and those two boys ruined my mood. I didn't even eat. How about you accompany me around the Royal Capital and find a better place to eat?" "

Lin Yi saw that it was already dark. Since he had gone out for a banquet, he definitely couldn't go back and eat again.

So I decided to walk around the capital and get familiar with the environment.

"Of course it's no problem. Don't worry, cousin Zhongda. I know exactly where to find delicious food in the capital!"

Liu Ziyu was very happy. He regarded his uncle and aunt who raised him as his parents. Now that Lin Yi has returned, he is not jealous, but full of joy.

Therefore, being able to get along happily with Lin Yi and build a closer relationship is a great thing that one can only hope for.

The two of them left Tianweixuan, chatted and laughed with Buyu and a few guards who were waiting at the door, and began to wander around the capital.

Liu Ziyu is a little transparent in front of other people, but when chatting with Lin Yi, she is quite talkative.

While walking and talking, he briefly introduced the general situation of the royal capital to Lin Yi.

The group of people found a small shop to sit down and eat. The environment here was not comparable to Tianweixuan, but the taste was quite good. Lin Yi was satisfied with it.

Liu Ziyu said that he knew all about the delicacies of the royal capital. It seems that he was not bragging!

After chatting for a while, a palace guard found Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu.

"Young Prince Zhongda and Mr. Liu, the king wants to summon you two now, so he sent a servant to Xuan to summon you!"

This guard was well-mannered and respectful. He did not appear arrogant just because he was with the prince. He obviously knew Lin Yi's position in Sima Zhengxin's heart.

"I just met Grandpa Wang. Why do you want to meet him again just now?"

Lin Yi knew full well that it was probably because Sima Zhongli and Sima Zhongyi couldn't swallow this breath and went to complain to Sima Zhengxin.

Strictly speaking, these two boys are both the grandchildren of Sima Zhengxin!

Now I'm looking for Sima Zhengxin with half a pig's head on his head. No matter how partial the old man is, he still has to make some gestures!

Of course, Lin Yi believed that Sima Zhengxin was just making a gesture and would not do anything to him.

To put it bluntly, those two boys were both sons of concubines, and their status was incomparable to Lin Yi's.

Especially since Sima Yunqi finally found his son who had been separated for twenty years. If Lin Yi beat those two boys to death, Sima Zhengxin would look at Sima Yunqi and give Lin Yi a lenient sentence.

"Then I'll help you lead the way!"

Lin Yi's thoughts changed in his mind, and with a smile on his face, he turned to Liu Ziyu and said: "Tzuyu, it seems that we are destined not to have a good meal today. Let's go out for a late night snack later."
