The group pets the little fisherman, she has a lot of happy events

"Yes."

Two Black Lin Guards appeared from the darkness and bowed to take orders.

Lin Fuxi closed her eyes in despair and allowed the two of them to drag her out of the hall.

Liu Qingni stood outside the hall and witnessed this scene with his own eyes, a complex and difficult-to-discern expression flashed through his eyes.

Lake Island.

Lin Jingcheng received a message from the palace, and his good mood disappeared instantly.

"what happened?"

Ye Xiuyan frowned slightly and had a bad premonition: "Did something happen to Fuxi again?"

Lin Jingcheng was worried: "She made my aunt angry and was imprisoned in the ancestral hall."

Ye Xiuyan looked worried: "Why this time?"

Lin Jingcheng sighed sadly: "My aunt asked her why she forced Xiao Ji, but she refused to tell."

"Isn't she feeling guilty?"

Ye Xiuyan's eyes were shocked: "You don't want Xiao Ji to continue to be decadent. Do you want him to cheer up as soon as possible, practice hard, and improve his cultivation?"

Lin Jingcheng shook his head sadly: "Since my aunt is forcing her to question her, it must not be that simple."

"Why didn't you ask before?"

Ye Xiuyan was suspicious: "It happened after the big fuss in Zuixianglou."

"Is it possible that there is a hidden secret between her and Xiao Ji, as you guessed?"

Lin Jingcheng suddenly had an idea and had an epiphany: "This time the riot in Zuixian Tower was too obvious and was seen by others. Even my aunt knows about it now."

"a?"

Ye Xiuyan frowned and looked at him: "You see something fishy, ​​can you tell your majesty?"

"Brother Lian."

Lin Jingcheng sighed sadly and told the answer that both of them knew well.

"Why did Young Master Mei do this?" Ye Xiuyan became a little angry: "What good will it do to Fu Xi if he is punished?"

"Brother Mei is my aunt's confidant."

Lin Jingcheng frowned slightly and deliberately defended his sworn brother: "He is loyal to my aunt wholeheartedly. He will never fail to report what he knows or hide anything from her."

"Does he really like Fu Xi?"

Ye Xiuyan was dissatisfied: "Or, it is only because of obeying His Majesty's orders that I will love and protect her."

"Brother Neem's heart is as heavy as the sea."

Lin Jingcheng pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "No one can understand his thoughts, including me."

"Your Majesty would actually value such a person?"

Ye Xiuyan was stunned and looked at a loss: "Since she likes him as the future emperor, she is not worried that such a scheming person will evade the empress and subvert the government?"

"Uh."

Lin Jingcheng smiled bitterly, not knowing how to argue for a moment.

"Isn't he your adopted brother?"

Ye Xiuyan continued to ask: "You actually don't understand him? It's really puzzling. If you don't understand him, how can you trust him and let him shoulder the important task of protecting Fengqi with you?"

"Brother Mei is different from the other three sworn brothers. After the new emperor came to the throne, Brother Li took charge of the finances, Brother Bing took over as the chief minister of the cabinet, and Brother Feng commanded the secret guards. The responsibilities of the three of them were clear and clear, and they were all approved by the father. It’s all arranged.”

Lin Jingcheng smiled bitterly: "Only Brother Mei, he has a beautiful appearance, an unparalleled mind, is good at controlling people's hearts, has extraordinary methods, and is favored by my aunt."

"He joined the army at the age of 16. He only stayed in the army for a year, and his aunt recruited him back by teaching Fu Xi."

"That year, when Fuxi was only nine years old, my aunt hinted to my father that she hoped that my father would release her and let Brother Mei stay in the palace and accompany Fuxi for a long time."

Ye Xiuyan frowned: "Your father agreed?"

"My father has always loved my aunt and loved her in every possible way."

Lin Jingcheng admitted frankly: "Don't say he is an adopted son, even if he is his biological son, if my aunt wants him, he will agree without hesitation."
