Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 967 Don't worry

   No need to go to Jimenguan to serve, Ye Mao simply stayed in Ningling, guarding his father's grave, he built a shed in front of his father's grave, lived in it every day, and asked his son to bring him meals every day.

   And Li Xin didn't have any big business when he returned to the southwest, so he simply stayed in Yejiazhuang. After all, at this time, most of the people in Meihuawei were looking for him all over the world.

It is worth mentioning that after this incident, Shen Gang strictly checked the Anbu personnel who followed Li Xin back to Beijing this time. There were only 20 or 30 people in total, and the scope was not very large. The court has spies who communicate.

   This is a horrible ratio.

There were no more than twenty or thirty people in the entourage who followed Li Xin from the southwest to the capital, and these were all Li Xin, or the most trusted people of Shen Gang, and 10% of these people were bought by the imperial court. This Anbu under Li Xin has been infiltrated very seriously, and there will be many problems in the southwest.

Faced with this kind of problem, naturally there is no kindness and mercy. Li Xin didn't even see each other, so he let Shen Gang deal with these two people. In addition, all the people in the Anbu who had friendship with these two people will be imprisoned. After checking it inside and out, the entire Anbu will also conduct a thorough inspection.

  To be honest, when Shen Gang knelt down in front of Li Xin and put the result in front of him, Li Xin was still somewhat angry.

This Anbu was raised by him in secret from Taikang for three years. Although it was later handed over to Shen Gang to take care of it, when it was not yet formed, he personally formed it. Most of the selected personnel were Buying some children from Jamhang, or adopting orphans from Shantang, everyone in Anbu, except Shen Gang, before entering Anbu, they were all between eleven and fifteen years old.

  Li Xin raised them for three or four years, and they barely had some use.

Up to now, it has been more than ten years since the establishment of the Anbu Ministry. During these more than ten years, at least three to five hundred people have grown up in the Anbu Ministry. It is no exaggeration to say that Li Xin raised them, but even so, The hand that Li Xin hid behind his back was seriously corroded by the imperial court.

Shen Gang half-kneeled in front of Li Xin, bowed his head and said, "Master Hou, the more than 20 people who accompanied us have all been sent back to Jincheng by subordinates, and subordinates will redeploy staff from Jincheng to guard Hou. Father's safety."

The Marquis of Jing'an had an expressionless face and snorted: "Most of them are the children you raised with your own hands, and the people who came to Ningling with me were also selected by you, and there are actually a full 10% of them, you leader. , very well done."

  Shen Gang immediately knelt on his knees and said in fear, "This subordinate is negligent."

   "After today, the subordinates must investigate the traitors in the Anbu in detail. There is another spy from the imperial court, and the subordinates come to see you!"

  The Marquis of Jing'an was expressionless, and said slowly, "Tell them that if you take the initiative to file a complaint, there is still a way to survive. Otherwise, I can buy them from the Yaxing, or I can kill them."

  Shen Gang immediately lowered his head.

   "Subordinates understand."

   "You go."

  Li Xin closed his eyes and said slowly, "Keep your eyes on the capital. If there is something important in the court, send it to me immediately."

"Yes."

  Shen Gang said this and slowly exited Li Xin's room.

   After the big man walked away, Li Xin also got up and left the room, simply combed his hair, changed into a commoner, carried a pot of wine, and walked towards the Ye family's ancestral tomb.

  The ancestral tomb is not very far from Yejiazhuang, and it didn't take long for Li Xin to see Ye Mao's reed.

   Li Xin walked over, sat opposite Ye Mao, and said with a smile, "My little grandfather back then knew that he was serious about his studies, and Master Ye has a spirit in the sky, so most of them would be happy about it."

  Ye Mao put down the military book and exhaled slowly.

   "It's just to relieve loneliness."

Ye Mao was a little bully when he was a child. When he was in his teens and twenties, he could never be idle for a while, and he was very detached. Basically, no one could control him except Ye Sheng. It was even more difficult. Although he was in his thirties now, it was still a little embarrassing for him to sit here for three years.

   "You don't need to force yourself to live here if you're not used to it."

  Li Xin sat down and stretched.

   "Sitting here, Brother Ye may not be able to live better in the sky. You should be filial, but you don't have to stick to the rules."

   Ye Mao sighed slowly.

   "As my uncle said, just ask for peace of mind. I didn't spend much time with my father before his death. Now that I have nothing to do, I'm here to spend more time with his old man and grandfather."

   Li Xin put the wine in front of Ye Mao and said, "It's getting cold in winter, can you take a sip?"

   Ye Mao shook his head.

   "You can't drink alcohol while mourning."

   Li Xin rolled his eyes at him and took a sip by himself.

At that time, when Li Xin first came to Ningling, Ye Mao accompanied him for a drink, which was considered a drunken solution to a thousand sorrows, but since then, this black-faced big man still strictly abides by the rules of filial piety and does not drink or eat. Meat.

While the two were chatting under the reed awning, a group of more than a dozen fast horses rushed over from Ningling County. The first one was a thin man in his forties. A horse lives in the place where he is walking, and then he walks towards the ancestral tomb of the Ye family.

  Ye Mao stretched out his head and glanced outside Lu Peng, then got up and walked out, and greeted the middle-aged man.

  Li Xin had his back to the door, and when he saw it, he looked back, got up from the futon, and greeted him.

   Ye Mao respectfully bowed his head to the middle-aged man.

   "Fourth Uncle."

   Li Xin also cupped his hands and said, "Senior brother."

The person who came was naturally Ye Lin, the general of Hanzhong, because he was in command of the army in Hanzhong and could not escape, so even after receiving the news of his eldest brother's death, he did not come back from Hanzhong. It has been almost two months since Ye Ming passed away. , the fourth eldest of the Ye family, finally came back from Ningling.

   He bowed back to Li Xin, then looked up at the grave behind the two, his eyes were a little red.

   "The eldest brother is seriously ill, and I couldn't come back to see him. Until the eldest brother left, I didn't come back to see him for the last time."

   Ye Laosi had tears in his eyes.

   "I'm sorry bro."

   He staggered and walked slowly towards Ye Ming's tomb.

   Both Li Xin and Ye Mao stepped aside and did not block his path. They both looked at Ye Lin's staggering back and felt a little bit in their hearts.

  Ye Mao was silent for a while, and then asked, "Uncle Shi, shouldn't the fourth uncle lead the troops in Hanzhong..."

   "You ask me, how do I know?"

  Li Xin looked at Ye Lin's back and sighed slowly.

   "Mostly it's the Son of Heaven, so I'm not worried about Brother Ye anymore."
