Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 666 No Conscience

   After leaving Weiyang Palace, Li Xin's complexion was as gloomy as water.

   In fact, he can understand why the emperor is so sensitive to that incident in those days. Now that Taikang is in the state of peace and prosperity, the only dark spot of the emperor is the palace change that night, so it is reasonable to avoid others mentioning this matter.

   But Li Xin didn't want to take credit for what happened that night, he just wanted to give the old Yulinwei brothers a reasonable treatment.

   In this matter, there was no political element in it, but it was decisively rejected by the Son of Heaven.

To be honest, although the emperor has treated Yu Linwei's people badly in the past few years, he has not treated Li Xin badly. He has given almost all the things that should be given to Li Xin, and even a little more. This emperor is also very old-fashioned.

   But today's conversation made Li Xin a little bit cold.

   Reason tells him that the emperor is just doing what the emperor should do, but emotionally, he is still a little uncomfortable.

   After getting into Chen Shiliu's carriage, Li Xin sat in the carriage with a blank expression and said nothing.

  Chen Shiliu drove the carriage and left Yonganmen Gate. After arriving at Yonglefang, he asked, "Master Hou, should I go home or go..."

   Earlier Li Xin told him that he would be busy working in the Ministry of War for a while these days, so Chen Shiliu only asked this question.

  Li Xin was expressionless and said lightly, "Go to Qinhuaifang."

  Chen Shiliu was stunned for a while, then nodded and drove the carriage towards the Qinhuai River.

It's still afternoon, and it's spring again. The Qinhuai River is full of romantic teenagers who are "young and thin in spring clothes". There are many literati and poets on the Qinhuai River who sing poems and make pairs. Although there is no bustling lights in the evening, you can still see them. Some of the fireworks in the capital are gone.

  Li Xin got out of the carriage, dressed in black, walking alone on the banks of the Qinhuai River, expressionless.

   Although he didn't speak, and was only followed by a servant, he had an inexplicable aura around him, and no one dared to approach him for a few meters.

  Li Xin strolled all the way and walked straight into the most famous Dayi Building on the Qinhuai River. He kept walking and walked towards the backyard of the Qinhuai River.

  This place was originally the property of His Royal Highness King Wei. Later, His Royal Highness King Wei became the emperor. These shady transactions are no longer suitable for control. Therefore, His Royal Highness King Wei gave the Deyi Lou to Li Xin.

   Of course, the price is 20% of Zhurongjiu's dry shares in Li Xin's hands.

   Although Li Xin was at a loss for this transaction, the scale of the business of Deyi Building is not small. In recent years, it has generated a lot of income every year, which is one of the economic sources of Jing'an Houfu.

   After Li Xin entered the backyard of the Deyi Building, he disappeared and never came out for a long time.

   But half an hour later, at the door of an inconspicuous alley in Qinhuaifang, a young man in cyan clothes gently knocked on the door of a small courtyard.

   This person is naturally Li Xin.

When he came out of the palace, the people of Tianmu prison would definitely stare at him, but Li Xin has not been a scumbag in the capital in recent years. He has a complete set of "anti-reconnaissance" methods. At present, it should be possible to Get rid of Tianmujian's stalking.

   According to Tianmujian's information, he should have been in the Deyi Building at this time, and he had called out a gentleman who had never sold himself to vent his displeasure.

   But in fact, he changed his clothes and a hat. In this era of no surveillance, he could easily escape the eyes and ears of the Tianmu prison.

   After a while, the courtyard door was slowly opened.

   A very thin and gentle woman who can still see a bit of beauty at first glance, stood behind the door, glanced at Li Xin, and said with a smile: "How come Li Da Shangshu has time to come to the little girl?"

   This woman, of course, was the former chief shopkeeper of Dayi Building, but now Cui Jiuniang, who has been "missing" for eight years.

   Li Xin also showed a smile on his face, and said, "I haven't seen Sister Cui for a long time, so I came over to have a look."

For the past eight years, Cui Jiuniang has been living in this yard. Because of the need to avoid suspicion, Li Xin could not come to see her openly, otherwise he would be suspected of cuckolding the emperor, but Li Xin is a very gracious person. He took great care of him, he kept it in his heart, and occasionally came to see this poor woman over the years.

   At this time, Cui Jiuniang was not as charming as Li Xin when she first met her, and there was not a lot of heavy makeup on her face. After all the powder was removed, she looked a little sick.

   Counting with his fingers, the former big shopkeeper of the Deyi Building is already thirty-four years old this year.

   Her appearance reminded Li Xin of layman Yi An in another world.

   Hearing Li Xin say this, Cui Jiuniang stepped aside and said with a smile, "Is there something to worry about, Mr. Li Hou, come in and have a seat?"

  Li Xin shook his head and exhaled slowly: "It's not convenient for my little brother to enter, so just say a few words at the door."

   Cui Jiuniang nodded and said with a smile, "Then say it."

  Li Xin stood with his hands down, as respectful as Cui Jiuniang's younger brother. After being silent for a while, he said, "Sister Cui, there is something I don't understand, little brother."

"you say."

   Li Xin let out a sigh of relief and asked slowly, "Sister Cui, can Enda become enemies?"

   Cui Jiuniang frowned and asked, "You and Your Majesty..."

  Li Xin shook his head and frowned, "It's not me."

What Li Xin said was indeed not himself. He was talking about Yulinwei. Yulinwei was undoubtedly kind to the emperor. Without Yulinwei, the current emperor of Taikang should be a vassal wherever he is, and he would even be like Like the King of Zhao and King Qi, he was ordered to be confined at home, unable to move.

   But this kindness was not remembered by the Son of Heaven, but followed by deep fear.

Hearing Li Xin's words, Cui Jiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, and after frowning for a while, she said, "My concubine is just a little girl, and I don't understand many things, but this is what Li Houye asked about. The problem, the concubine thinks that if the kindness really turns into hatred, then that person has no conscience."

   "The woman's opinion, Li Houye just listen to it."

  Li Xin stood at the door, spit out a turbid breath, and cupped his hands to Cui Jiuniang: "Thank you Sister Cui for your guidance."

   "Your Majesty is very polite."

   Cui Jiuniang smiled softly: "Isn't that little girl doing well? I haven't seen her for a month or two."

   "She's doing fine."

When    mentioned Xiaoxiao, Li Xin's confidence became brighter. He smiled and said, "Little brother gave birth to a son not long ago. Xiaoxiao is busy taking this little nephew at home and is very happy."

   Jiuniang nodded: "I forgot to congratulate Li Houye on his happy marriage."

  Li Xinlian said no.

   After chatting about Zhong Xiaoxiao for a while, Li Xin looked around the inconspicuous alley, hesitated a little, and said, "Sister Cui, have you thought about leaving the capital?"

   "Leaving the capital?"

   Jiuniang glanced at Li Xin in surprise and asked with a smile, "Where are you going after leaving the capital?"

  The Marquis of Jing'an said solemnly, "Go to Danzhou."

   "Danzhou is overseas, the ends of the earth, and no one can get there. I can arrange for Sister Cui to quietly go to Danzhou. When the time comes, Sister Cui will change her name and surname, and maybe she will be able to live a normal life."

   Jiuniang heard the words and thought for a while, then shook her head and smiled.

   "Forget it, don't implicate others."

   "This is the life of the concubine, and the concubine recognizes it."
