I Don’t Want To Be the Emperor

Chapter 538 Calculation

 “I can rest assured that you are doing the work,”

Lin Yi casually swatted a mosquito to death and murmured, "It's not good at all outside the city. There are more mosquitoes than in the city."

Zixia smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I remember you told us when you gave us the hygiene class that these mountains, forests, shoals, and lakes are the most likely to breed mosquitoes. One mosquito can breed hundreds of them, densely packed.

Our place has been completely occupied. I have thought about it. In a few days, I will cut down some trees and weeds in the surrounding old forest and make some open space in the middle. "

“That’s okay. Too many mosquitoes are annoying, and maybe there are snakes, monkeys and the like that come in and cause trouble.”

Lin Yi unconsciously thought of Sanhe's otter again, and he actually missed it a little bit.

Zixia said, "Leave a larger space at the front and back doors. When the time comes, shopping in the house and people coming and going will be more convenient."

Lin Yi warned, "If the open space is too big, you have to be careful of those martial arts enthusiasts and make noise at the door if they have nothing to do."

Many people practicing martial arts on the field, hehehehahaha, make as much noise as a square dancing lady.

Zixia smiled and said, "General Han is very thoughtful. As soon as I told him, he decided to put someone on guard."

"Um?"

Lin Yi turned his head to look at Zixia and said with a smile, "What benefits did Han Deqing give you? Can you say a good word for him?"

 “Your Majesty has a wise eye,”

Zixia covered her mouth and said with a smile, "I know I can't hide this from you. Commander Han is too honest and always does things that are ridiculous. If I don't say something for him, he will die unjustly."

Lin Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, "If I didn't know him very well and just listened to your words, I would have thought he was a good person."

There are no good people here or in the palace!

Han Deqing’s kung fu is mediocre and his brain is average.

He estimated that there was only one reason why Hong Ying asked Han Deqing to be the commander of the guards: he was ruthless enough.

When Sanhe was cracking down on gangs and evil, there was a lack of executioners, so guards such as Wang Xu, Chen Xinluo, Jiao Zhong, and Han Deqing volunteered to go on stage for execution.

 Later Shanqi introduced a group of high-quality executioners with ancestral skills from Yuezhou and Hongzhou.

 These guards are no longer needed as executioners.

However, it is said that Han Deqing has already killed red eyes. If he doesn't kill anyone for a day, his hands will itch.

Furthermore, in order to improve his professional skills, he visited famous teachers from Hongzhou and Yuezhou and learned the art of "peeling".

The level of cruelty is no less cruel than the tortures of removing intestines, filling with lead, running into a basin, and quartering the body with five horses.

 In the end, green comes from blue and is better than blue.

 The skin of the human being was completely peeled off, and the ears, eyes, mouth and nose were all intact.

Lin Yi was shocked after hearing this. He could never connect this honest-looking guard with the cruel executioner.

This is not a psychopath!

However, this pervert is suitable for dealing with habitual criminals who are murderous and extremely vicious.

There are some recidivist criminals who have no conscience and are too numerous to describe. Regarding them, Lin Yi never talks about human rights. In private, when Han Deqing and others want to be skinned, he turns a blind eye and closes one eye, pretending not to see them.

The penalty is still right: severe punishment should be used in troubled times.

 If we don’t kill these people’s majesty, we will really be in chaos.

 “The prince still understands him,”

Zixia rubbed Lin Yi's shoulders and said, "He hates evil the most, and his murderous nature is a bit too strong."

Lin Yi sighed, "How can a human be without shortcomings?"

 There are many perfect "gentlemen" like Chen Yan and Fu Yin, but none of them are willing to be used by him.

 Smart people are the ones who know how to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

Only people like Han Deqing, who are full of shortcomings, are willing to bear the burden for him, and he can only help them live in peace.

Zixia said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Lin Yi closed his eyes slightly and fell asleep unconsciously.

When I woke up, I remembered that today I should have a wedding night.

 Rubbing his eyes, he took the tea cup from Hong Ying and went directly to Guan Xiaoqi's wing.

 The room is still brightly lit.

When he opened the door, Guan Xiaoqi was sitting on the bed wearing a red scarf. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he instinctively raised his head, although he could not see anything.

 “Your Majesty.”

Zixia, who was sitting next to her, stood up, walked out, and then quietly closed the door.

Lin Yi stepped forward and lifted his red hijab, and the two of them immediately stared at each other.

 The room became even quieter, and we could only hear each other's heavy breathing.

 “Are you hungry?

 Eat something first, otherwise you will not have the strength to perform the courtesy of Duke Zhou. "

Lin Yi pulled her to the sumptuous dining table.

 “You scoundrel, a dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory.”

 Guan Xiaoqi became even more angry.

Lin Yi said angrily, "Is it wrong for me to care about you?"

"snort!"

 Guan Xiaoqi ignored him and filled up the wine glass. After taking a big gulp, he devoured the dishes on the table.

Lin Yi held his chin with both hands and just watched her eat.

 “Don’t look at me like that,”

Guan Xiaoqi's face turned red when she saw it. She turned her head away and continued to chew on the leg of lamb. She said incoherently, "No wonder you are so fat. You eat and drink every day."

ˆ “.”

Lin Yi's face turned dark.

 Have you agreed to hit someone in the face but not in the face?

“Oh, if you think what I said is unpleasant, it’s still too late to regret it now,”

Guan Xiaoqi said proudly, "But don't worry, I will repay your one hundred taels of betrothal gift in full, and I won't owe you anything."

 “Why don’t you be so beautiful?”

Lin Yi gritted his teeth, picked up her waist again, and threw her onto the bed.

 One operation is as fierce as a tiger's.

 He lowered his head and looked at the original pestle.

 There was no result after all.

He was a little tired and said to Guan Xiaoqi, "Since you are not happy, just eat well."

He left dejectedly and returned to his bedroom.

Zixia knew the elegance of the strings by listening to them, and was waiting by her side. Lin Yi finally let go of the heavy breath in his chest.

Looking at Zixia in his arms, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Cuteness and beauty are really not worth mentioning in front of sexiness.

 Everything going on in the house is visible to everyone who cares.

On the second day, according to the rules, Zixia led Guan Xiaoqi to greet the princess. After waiting for half an hour, the princess did not let them in.

 Guan Xiaoqi breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I can't say it, you insist on letting me come. Just take a look, it's better not to come."

Zixia said, "Miss Guan, I will send you back to rest. If you need anything, just tell me."

 “Thank you, everything is fine, nothing needed.”

 Guan Xiaoqi turned around and left.

She stayed in Hewang Mansion for three days. Every day, apart from the garden, there was a wing. The huge Hewang Mansion made her feel like a prison.

She finally couldn't help but approached Lin Yi and said, "I want to go home."

“Sure enough, a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle.”

Lin Yi looked at Guan Xiaoqi, who was wearing a satin skirt, and joked, "She is becoming more and more ladylike."

"I want to go home."

 Guan Xiaoqi repeated it again.

“If you want to go home, just go back. The gate is over there, no one is stopping you.”

Whether it was Hu Miaoyi, Jin Xiang, or Du Yinniang, Lin Yi never restrained them and allowed them to enter and leave the mansion.

However, these people have learned the "rules" thoroughly. They never leave the house or take a second step. Even when they take their children out for a walk, they still have to force them themselves.

Lin Yi often has a headache because of this.

"I'm leaving?"

 Guan Xiaoqi said in disbelief.

 “Shall I accompany you back?”

Lin Yi stood up and said, "I'll save you from thinking nonsense."

"no, I'm fine,"

Guan Xiaoqi waved her hands hurriedly and said, "If you follow me, he will think too much."

Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "That's okay. When you want to go home, you can go back at any time, regardless of other people's opinions."

 “This is still human language.”

 After speaking, Guan Xiaoqi turned around and left.

Lin Yi saw Hu Miaoyi from a distance. When she came closer, he took his daughter from her arms. He wanted to teach her to call her daddy, but he didn't expect that the daughter said "Mother Xipi" again.

Seeing that Lin Yi looked unhappy, Hu Miaoyi quickly held her daughter in her arms and looked at Guan Xiaoqi who had already jumped to the end of the corridor and said, "Your Majesty, you are pampering her too much."

 “Childlike innocence is still alive, good things, if it is killed, it will be inhumane,”

Everyone in the palace is submissive to him, like a robot, lacking a lot of humanity. He doesn't like it, "She can do whatever she wants. Just don't talk to her. She won't bother you in any way." thing."

"yes,"

Since she had said this to the prince, Hu Miaoyi naturally would not continue to make trouble for herself. She hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, the mother-in-law said she wanted to see the child."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I have already prepared the carriage. You and Mingyue can take the children into the palace. There may be many rewards. You are welcome, just take it."

His mother wanted to see her grandson and granddaughter, so he had no reason to stop her.

No matter how much he acts like a monster, with his understanding of my mother, he will not harm his own grandson and granddaughter.

 So, just let her do whatever she wants.

Hu Miaoyi said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Yi looked at the field of rose flowers in front of him that looked like dogs gnawing at them, and suddenly couldn't help but ask, "How is your father doing now?

 If it's about the same, let Guo call back. Someone must take care of this garden. "

Those gardeners outside are basically two-swordsmen. They can even keep roses so withered. They are really talented!

Even if these things were entirely self-reliant, they wouldn't grow like this!

 So, he couldn't help but think of Guo Zhao, the gardener in front of the palace.

Not only the flowers, but also the goldfish in the pond must be taken care of.

 “Thanks to the prince, my father is in good health.”

Hu Miaoyi smiled and said, "I just occasionally make mistakes, so I can complain.

Guo Zhao had to follow him all day long to do some unimportant things, which was a sign of humiliation. Anyway, there were a lot of servants over there. It didn't matter whether they were there or not. I would immediately notify him and ask him to come back. "

Lin Yi nodded and said, "That's good."

 At night.

Lin Yi leaned back on Du Yinniang's smooth belly and said with a smile, "You are bored in the house every day, how can you stand it?"

Du Yinniang couldn't help but said, "I think I am a shrewd person, but compared with Miss Guan, I am far behind. I actually envy her a little."

 “Don’t say such weird things,”

Lin Yi's hands were wandering around unconsciously, he was at home in all corners of the world, "Have you heard any news lately?"

Du Yinniang shook her head and said, "There's no news. I'm just worried that I don't have enough money, so I had someone send me some money."

Lin Yi said, "I'm afraid you are the richest person in this house."

Du Yinniang said, "Your Majesty, what you say is too underestimated for our queen."

"Um?"

Lin Yi said disdainfully, "How much money does she have? I still don't know?"

 The Prince of Heshun County is in such a state of desolation, how can he still have money to spend with Hu Miaoyi?

  It’s simply an international joke!

Du Yinniang said, "Your Majesty, although the lineage of Heshun County and Prince has been ruined, over the generations, a few thieves can wipe it out in a few times.

I heard that the empress started making abacus at the age of three, took care of the affairs of the prince's palace at the age of twelve, and took over the shops and villages outside at the age of fourteen, keeping everything in order.

Later, Yueyang was hit by a military disaster, and our queen sold a lot of property, traveling from Yuezhou to Nanzhou, and then to Yong'an. She was not in a hurry. Although she was a little impulsive at times, she never did anything stupid. The prince wanted to squander his family. You have to get her consent, right?

In my humble opinion, she probably had no intention of making the king suffer. "

Lin Yi frowned and said, "Didn't Pan Duo say this?"

“My lord, you are just a fan of the authorities,”

Du Yinniang covered her mouth and said with a smile, "No matter how good Pan Duo is, he wouldn't dare to chew on the Queen's tongue because of a little money, right?"

 “Pando this piece of shit,”

Lin Yi cursed, and then asked curiously, "Then how much money do you think our lady has?"

Du Yinniang said, "I dare not lie about this, but the bracelets, earrings, and headdresses on our empress's hands are not from the mansion. Since I entered the mansion, I have never seen your empress wearing anything else. These are the only things I have seen. , roughly estimated to be hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."

 “She is really a rich woman.”

 After Lin Yi finished speaking, he felt something was wrong again.

　　What's going on when you take your younger wife to plot against your eldest wife?

Thinking of this, he waved his hands and said, "Sleep, don't talk anymore."

In the days that followed, he paid special attention to what Hu Miaoyi was wearing. As Du Yinniang said, this old lady was really a money-lover!

Hu Miaoyi was also stared at for no apparent reason, and even felt angry.

“Your wife is actually so rich.”

Lin Yi turned his head and looked at Zixia next to him, "Don't tell me you don't know?"

Zixia couldn't help laughing and said, "Your Majesty, did this servant remind you?"

 “Have you been reminded?”

Do you really have Alzheimer's disease?

 Amnesia getting worse?

 “That’s what you said then,”

Zixia pinched her throat and imitated Lin Yi's tone and said, "I'm not so poor as to look for peas in the quail crop, chop the meat from the legs of the egrets, or scrape the fat from the abdomen of mosquitoes. What I want is people's fat and people's ointment."

"Why,"

Lin Yi said decadently, "I have decided to start writing a diary from tomorrow."

 “Who is a serious person who keeps a diary?”

 Zixia said something cold again.

ˆ “.”

 It is not very insulting, but the risk of harm is great.

 After Guan Xiaoqi stayed at home for five days, he was sent back by Guan Sheng himself.

Lin Yi stood at the door and greeted him warmly. Guan Sheng refused to come in despite any words. He left Guan Xiaoqi behind and ran away in a panic.

 “This is my biological father”

Guan Xiaoqi drooped his head, without any energy.
