Di Ying, lying on the bed, didn't know how to face that face. When she met Li Lingge's eyes, she felt a little guilty.
When she thought about the other person seeing what she said, her toes curled up involuntarily.
In fact, she knew she was not qualified to say that.
A fatherless and motherless homeless child, who was trained as a personal assassin since childhood.
It would be impossible for me to truly step into the palace in my lifetime, and the lady would never agree.
Ugh.
Di Ying sighed softly and suddenly felt that it would be better to die in the Ascension Map.
She let out a long breath, sat up suddenly, grabbed the pillow and threw it at the end of the bed.
Li Lingge, who had just closed his eyes, looked confused.
"what happened?"
Di Ying raised his hand and said: You sleep on this side and I'll sleep on that side.
Li Lingge: ( ̄ー ̄)
This night seemed very long to Di Ying, and he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
She didn't know how much time had passed until her eyelids began to twitch and she closed her eyes drowsily.
Sleep until dawn.
Feeling the heat coming from the soles of his feet, Di Ying suddenly woke up.
She suddenly retracted her feet and sat up immediately like a frightened rabbit.
At this time, Li Lingge on the other side was sleeping with his head tilted to the side.
And her feet were just next to his mouth, and her toes still retained the burning warmth.

Chapter 79 Di Ying Calls Dad
Capital.
As soon as Li Lingge returned to the mansion, he was greeted by the suffocating embrace of Yun Yourong, the great container.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that only one out of ten martial artists who entered the Immortal Ascension Map survived. You scared me to death."
"I'm sorry to have worried my sister-in-law. I'm back safe and sound."
A silent voice came from Yun Yourong's arms.
Li Lingge has given up resisting his sister-in-law who has a global vision.
As the Tianshu Secret Realm was about to open, he felt more and more reluctant to leave his only family in this world.
He treated every hug as the final farewell.
As if he remembered something, Yun Yourong let go of his hand.
"The Second Prince sent someone a few days ago, saying that you should go find him immediately when you return."
Li Lingge took a deep breath of fresh air.
"Liu Quan, prepare the sedan chair."
……
The Second Prince’s residence is not as magnificent as Prince Wei’s residence, but it is elegant with winding paths leading to secluded places.
In the back garden, there is a rockery and a pond with clear water. The rockery has undulating peaks and the dark green glazed tiles set off the rippling water, making it look like a fairyland.
Under the pavilion.
Li Lingge sat down, and all the servants in the back garden were dismissed, leaving only him and the second prince.
"Your Highness asked me to come here, but there was a problem with the trade negotiations?"
Jiang Yin shook his head.
"The trade talks are going smoothly, but Lingge, you are in trouble."
"I?"
Li Lingge pointed at himself in confusion. According to the plot in the book, after the end of the storyline about the Saint's Relics, until he entered the Tianshu Secret Realm, nothing should have happened to him.
Jiang Yin took out a memorial and placed it on the stone table.
"This is the impeachment letter from Yanzhou Governor Fei Huanzhi. I ordered someone to copy it. Please take a look."
[Prince Wei Li Lingge brutally killed innocent people. His crimes are obvious and cannot be tolerated by heaven. The families of the people who suffered at his hands have jointly submitted a memorial...]
After reading the contents of the memorial, Li Lingge was puzzled.
What is Fei Huanzhi going to do?
He did kill someone in the Taoist temple.
But in that situation, people's hearts were bewitched, and he could not break the deadlock unless he killed people.
Jiang Yin said with a headache.
"Lingge, did you really kill someone in Yanzhou?"
Li Lingge did not deny this. There were many witnesses to the murder in the Taoist temple.
Apart from anything else, it is impossible for those people in the Supervisory Council to help him lie.
Seeing him nod, Jiang Yin felt his temples throbbing.
"The memorial was sent out clearly. Even if I wanted to protect you, the Crown Prince insisted on this matter, and I couldn't suppress the ministers' request.
This Fei Huanzhi is Shen Yike's disciple, and the prince wants to use this incident to take your life."
Killing someone is not scary, what is scary is to be caught by someone.
This matter can be big or small.
But the problem is that the situation has gotten so bad that he can no longer control it.
Once Li Lingge died, even if the peace talks were successful, he might not be able to compete with the prince in future trade between the two countries.
However, Li Lingge looked indifferent and did not care about the contents of the memorial.
“What happened that day was that we had no choice but to draw our swords and see blood, and we killed those who deserved to be killed.
Shen Jin from the Overwatch Council and the Qilin Guards are both present, they can——"
Having said this, he seemed to have thought of something and stopped talking.
Jiang Yin also saw that he had figured it out, so he just made it clear.
"Shen Jin is Shen Yike's grandson. When the three courts hold a trial, does Ling Ge expect him to speak for you?"
Li Lingge nodded. Given Shen Jin's character, he would at most not kick someone when he's down, but he would not help him under pressure from Shen Yike.
"Your Highness, I have my own way to resolve this matter. Even if it is a joint trial by the three courts, I can make Fei Huanzhi speechless by myself."
"really?"
"really."
Hearing this, Jiang Yin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lingge, you don't know that during the time you were away from the capital, I didn't encounter a single satisfactory thing."
It seemed like he had finally found someone to talk to, and he told him everything that had happened in the capital recently.
“The emperor’s uncle is the chief examiner of this imperial examination. Before the examination even started, the examination questions were leaked and the streets were full of people selling the examination questions.
Fortunately, this matter was discovered in time before the exam and no major disaster occurred.
Now that all the officials have impeached me, even if the emperor thinks of the brotherly love, he cannot reject all the petitions."
Jiang Yin stood up and looked at the leisurely koi in the pond.
"Lingge should also know that if the uncle is gone, the prince will rely on Shen Yike, and his power in the court will be far greater than mine."
Li Lingge was waiting for the missed questions in the scientific examination. Now everything was going according to plan, except for the small accident of Fei Huanzhi.
"The leak of test questions is a serious case. Who did your majesty assign this case to?"
Perhaps feeling that the koi in the pond were too comfortable, Jiang Yin threw the teacup in his hand heavily into the pond.
"The presiding judge has been hanging around for days."
"Your Majesty does not want the Crown Prince's people to preside over the trial because he is worried that the Crown Prince will find a pretext to accuse him of a crime.
His Majesty wanted to find out what was going on, so he didn't want to let His Highness's people preside over the trial, so as to avoid letting it slip away." Li Lingge could probably guess what the Majesty was thinking.
"Yes." Jiang Yin nodded. "I have been worried about this for several nights and haven't slept yet, but my uncle seems to be fine. He just says that a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear."
Seeing that everything had been laid out, Li Lingge began to talk about his plan.
"Your Highness can ask His Majesty to let Fei Huanzhi preside over this case."
"What?!" Jiang Yin suspected that he had heard it wrongly, "He is the prince's man."
Li Lingge stood up, walked to Jiang Yin, grabbed a handful of bait by the pond, and threw it into the pond.
In a moment, the pond was full of koi.
If there wasn't enough bait, how could the prince take the bait?
Of course, he wouldn't say this directly to Jiang Yin.
"It is because Fei Huanzhi is the prince's man that the prince will not object to this candidate.
After the case is investigated, His Highness can also avoid danger, after all, the chief judge is Shen Yike's disciple. "
"Can--"
Jiang Yin wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Lingge.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I have leverage over Fei Huanzhi. He will definitely obey me."
Jiang Yin was silent, his eyes flickering, obviously wondering whether what Li Lingge said was true or not.
After all, the King of Qin was too important to him and he couldn't afford any mistakes.
Although Li Lingge agreed to cooperate with him, if he secretly betrayed the prince, wouldn't he be in a passive position?
"What is the handle that Lingge is talking about? Can you tell me?"
Li Lingge shook his head.
"If Your Highness doesn't believe me, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
Jiang Yin now has no choice but to trust him.
If the stalemate with the crown prince continues, the balance will eventually tip in his favor.
After all, the group of people in the court who have always remained neutral on this matter also stand on the side of the prince.
The missed questions in the scientific examinations must be thoroughly investigated, otherwise we will not be able to explain to all the students.
Since Fei Huanzhi dared to impeach him, he should come to Beijing and save his life.
Jiang Yin frowned slightly, feeling doubtful.
"What's the reason for transferring Fei Huanzhi to Beijing?"
Li Lingge had already thought of a reason, and he picked up the memorial on the table.
"Fei Huanzhi was once the Minister of Justice. He was promoted by Shen Yike and then became the Governor of Yanzhou.
He is very familiar with criminal law and is fully qualified to be the chief judge.
And since he has impeached me, we can confront each other in court after the examination of the missing questions case is over."
When Jiang Yin came to his senses, Li Lingge had already turned around and left with the memorial.
"My sister-in-law is waiting for me to have dinner. Your Highness, please stay."
……
After eating the dumplings made by Yun Yourong, Li Lingge lay comfortably on the recliner, staring at the starry sky in a daze.
