The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 214 Farewell
Ji Lingchuan lifted the curtain and took a look, his eyes instantly heated up.

"Oh, my uncle, no, there are two more on the other side!"

Pei Xiao pointed to the side, "It's not too late for you to cry when you see them both."

"Fuck off."

Ji Lingchuan jumped out of the carriage with difficulty, straightened his clothes, and limped to the pavilion. He was about to kneel down when Zhao Yishi stopped him.

"There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite."

"Your Highness, please let me kneel down again!"

Ji Lingchuan pushed Zhao Yishi's hand away, fell to the ground, and kowtowed three times seriously.

After knocking down, he got up with difficulty, turned around and gave a deep salute to Xie Zhifei who was standing aside. Xie Zhifei was so frightened that he quickly supported him.

"What are you doing, Uncle Ji?"

"First, thank you for traveling all this way for the Ji family; second, thank you for me, Miss Yan, she..."

Ji Lingchuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out. He just held Xie Zhifei's hand tightly and wouldn't let go.

Xie Zhifei had seen him in just a few days, and he had become so thin that he was no longer human-like. There was not a single black hair on his head, and many words were stuck in his throat.

"Lingchuan doesn't have to be sad."

Zhao Yishi: "In a few days, a new magistrate will take office in Nanning Prefecture. When the time comes, I will ask him to take care of you secretly."

When Xie Zhifei heard this, he glanced at Pei Xiao pretending to be unintentional.

Pei Xiao stood behind Zhao Yishi and looked at him.

Their eyes met, and the two of them confirmed one thing: news of Zhou Ye's death had reached the capital.

Ji Lingchuan let go of Xie Zhifei's hand, turned around and said, "Lingchuan thanks your highness."

"You can rest assured, Jingzhong."

Zhao Yishi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hibernate for a few years, and one day you will be proud and proud."

Ji Lingchuan smiled lightly when he heard this.

"Your Highness doesn't need to be too concerned about the Ji family. Being idle may not be their blessing."

"After a journey of life and death, Lingchuan has thought of everything."

Ji Lingchuan looked at the distant sky, as if talking to Zhao Yishi, or to himself.

"In the past, I was busy working hard, and all I wanted to do was to get ahead, have a wife and a son, and honor my ancestors. Later I realized that in life, in the end, I only have myself.

I didn't know what sadness meant before, and I thought crying heartbreakingly meant sadness. Later I realized that true sadness means being unable to express, scream, or cry. "

Zhao Yishi didn't know how to answer for a moment.

“The water of the Yangtze River carries boats but also capsizes them; the waves of the Yellow River ferry people but also ghosts.”

Ji Lingchuan's voice was as low as a bell.

"Your Highness, Lingchuan is going to say something outrageous. No matter how high the temple is or how far the rivers and lakes are, the power cannot be exhausted, the blessings cannot be enjoyed, and the things cannot be done."

When Zhao Yishi heard this, he was secretly horrified.

"You three, please take care of yourself!"

Ji Lingchuan smiled, clasped his hands into fists, and limped back to the carriage, never looking back.

In the dust, the carriage gradually moved away.

After a long time, Zhao Yishi sighed: "Has he realized it?"

Pei Xiao: "I think I've realized it."

"Not only is it enlightened, but it is understood thoroughly, which is a good thing."

Xie Zhifei smiled faintly and looked back at Zhao Yishi, "Huairen, we have met the prefect of Nanning Prefecture. His name is Zhou Ye. Where has he been transferred?"

"He set himself on fire."

"Self-immolation?"

Xie Zhifei and Pei Xiao almost said the same thing, their faces full of shock, but they let out a long sigh of relief in their hearts.

Self-immolation is good!

Everything was reduced to ashes, and there was no way to investigate, so everything ended up clean.

"I heard that he is seriously ill. I have already arranged the candidate to take over."

When Zhao Yishi said this, he suddenly turned a corner and asked, "How are the two lawsuits going?"

Pei laughed and said, "When I look back at my grandson, I have to call him Eunuch Xu!"

Zhao Yishi smiled, then stopped immediately: "Fifty."

"Ok?"

"When you touch Xu Sheng, take care of Xu Lai too!"

Xie Zhifei was startled and subconsciously looked into Zhao Yishi's eyes.

"A mad dog. I have tolerated him for too long. It's time to pull out his teeth and break his legs."

Zhao Yishi's dark eyes showed no emotion at all.

……

The prince's Duanmu Palace is in the east of the city, and the Han Dynasty's Chonghua Palace is in the south of the city.

One is to the east and the other is to the south. The level of status is clear at a glance.

In front of the Chonghua Palace, the chariot of Han King Zhao Yanjin stopped, and suddenly a guard came in, "Your Majesty, Lord Xu has been waiting for a long time."

Come again?

Zhao Yanjin's face darkened slightly: "Take the people to the side hall first, and call Boren to the study."

"Yes."

Get off the carriage and change into a sedan chair.

The sedan was carried to the entrance of the study, and the chamberlain hurriedly greeted him, "Your Majesty, sir, you are already waiting in the study."

Zhao Yanjin strode in.

A middle-aged man with white hair in front of the window turned around and saluted Zhao Yanjin. He was Dong Xiao, also known as Boren, the most trusted staff and military advisor of the King of Han.

"Bo Ren doesn't have to be polite."

Zhao Yanjin gave him a hand, "Xu Lai is here again. Can you tell me what the rules are for this matter?"

Dong Boren sneered, "Your Highness, do you still remember what I said about Xu Lai three years ago?"

Can you not remember?
Three years ago, he wanted to place Xu Laian in the position of Minister of Justice. Dong Boren did not object, and only said lightly:
"This person is too indulgent, which is not a good thing."

Over the years, Xu Lai, as the dog of the King of Han, has indeed done his duty impeccably; but his son Xu Sheng is really not a worry-free person.

Who is Xie Daozhi?

He, Zhao Yanjin, was the one he wanted to win over.

Fortunately, this Xu Sheng was looked down upon by so many women in the capital, but he actually fell in love with Xie Daozhi's newly adopted daughter.

Not only did he fall in love with it, but he still wanted to grab it in broad daylight...

Calling him a beast felt like an insult.

"Bo Ren, let's not talk about the past. Let's see how we deal with this matter." Zhao Yanjin moved the lid of the tea and sighed.

"The matter of extinguishing children and grandchildren will be a disaster for anyone."

Dong Boren was silent for a long time and suddenly asked: "How to deal with it depends on the prince's wishes."

"How to say?"

"The matter involves the Xu and Xie families. It is certain that Xu Sheng kidnapped people, and Xu Lai personally admitted it to the prince. However, Xie Laosan's murder has no basis and no evidence. It is just the inference of Xu Lai and his son."

Dong Boren: "If the prince still wants to win over Xie Daozhi, then he cannot let Xu Lai mess around and order him to endure this tone; if the prince has no hope of repaying Xie Daozhi..."

"Thank you."

Zhao Yanjin snorted coldly, "I have been holding out my hand for more than three years. This person is just pretending to be deaf and mute, which shows that he is not of the same mind as me."

"Since it's not the same thing, let Xu Lai go ahead and do it. Even if it doesn't end in the end, Xu Sheng's life is in the way, and the prince can't be blamed no matter what."

Dong Boren: "If Xu Lai can unseat Xie Daozhi and there is a vacancy in the cabinet, we can take advantage of the opportunity and insert Du Jianxue. In this way, the situation will be greatly beneficial to the prince."

"Wonderful!"

Zhao Yanjin clapped his hands and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Come here, invite Xu Lai in!"
