"Father, that boy is really too much! He's just too much of a bully!"
In the prime minister's house, Li Jin, who had just returned home, couldn't help but complain.
Li Yan didn't even raise his head and asked: "What's wrong? I want you to be calmer when things happen. Why are you so impatient every time?"
"Father, it's still Lin Yiqiu. I feel like he is deliberately going against me!"
Li Jin then told Li Yan carefully about Xiangyue Tower.
After listening, Li Yan rolled his eyes at him.
"Just for this?"
"Father! I'm feeling depressed!"
"So what if I feel depressed? As long as I can't die."
Li Yan said calmly: "Let that guy be arrogant as long as he is arrogant. He will pay the price one day anyway."
"But my son can't bear it anymore. I want to see him die now!"
Li Jin's anger surged.
Ever since Lin Yiqiu rose to prominence in the court, not only himself, but also his father had suffered a lot.
Coupled with what happened today, how could he, as the prime minister, swallow his anger so easily?
Li Jin's expression was still very calm.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to bounce around for long. He will soon face his own death."
"Father, you mean you already have a plan?"
Li Jin suddenly felt pleasantly surprised.
Li Yan stopped talking and uttered a sentence after a long while.
"You will know soon. Let him be arrogant for now. It doesn't matter."
....
Lin Yiqiu had already gone to the Archguard Division again, and Cang Hong had just returned.
After the two of them bumped into each other, Cang Hong spoke with concern.
"Is your injury healed?"
"Of course, nothing's wrong. That poisonous needle can't do anything to me! What about you? Have you found anything?"
Cang Hong nodded.
"I found traces of the Holy Fire Cult in a ruined temple outside the city. According to the old man in black and the old man in the green hat, it should be the meeting point of their Holy Fire Cult."
"But unfortunately, I didn't see anyone."
"This proves that the other party has already anticipated our actions."
Lin Yiqiu said calmly: "It seems that the other party is also very careful and knows the news about our trip to Beijing."
"What are you going to do next? Continue the trial?"
"Well, that's for sure, I want those two people to spit out all the information!"
"Even if we can't find the whereabouts of the military pay, we still have to find the whereabouts of their Holy Fire Cult activities! Then uproot them!"
Cang Hong's words showed some harshness.
Lin Yiqiu did smile after hearing this.
"I think they are likely to come back to Beijing again."
"Going back to Beijing again? That's not the case, they have already lost two people, and coming back is tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap!"
Cang Hong didn't believe it.
But Lin Yiqiu just put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "This is just my intuition. Although there is no basis, I always feel uneasy."
"These days, we need to continue to strengthen our vigilance when going to Beijing."
"Well, that's natural! But you have to be careful. If they come back, I'm afraid they will target you again!"
Cang Hong reminded me.
In any case, Lin Yiqiu was the one who designed and captured two grand masters.
Those thieves from the Holy Fire Sect would most likely target Lin Yiqiu if they took action.
Lin Yiqiu didn't care about this.
As long as he is careful at all times now, with his master-level cultivation, there is generally no danger.
Besides, he is still working as an errand at Cining Palace, and rarely goes out unless he is investigating a case or doing business in the store.
If the other party wants to attack, they can't attack directly into the palace, right? That would be tantamount to throwing themselves into a trap.
After asking about the details of the case, Lin Yiqiu had already returned to the palace.
I first went to visit the Queen Mother and told her that the tasks assigned to her had been completed.
At night, Lin Yiqiu quietly sneaked into Xiao Meiniang's bedroom.
Seeing Lin Yiqiu come in, Xiao Meiniang was like a frightened bird and quickly knelt on the ground.
"Master, you are finally here."
After not seeing each other for several days, Xiao Meiniang was surprised, scared, and happy to see Lin Yiqiu again!
Lin Yiqiu stepped forward and lifted her chin.
"I've been seriously injured these days, so I haven't been here much. You probably didn't do anything stupid when I wasn't here, right?"
"Mei Niang doesn't dare! Mei Niang only listens to the master's words. Mei Niang will do what the master says."
Xiao Meiniang was so frightened that she quickly explained.
Lin Yiqiu was very satisfied with her performance and said with a smile: "In that case, please comfort me a little. I just miss your skills these days."
As he spoke, Lin Yiqiu lowered his head and looked down.
How could Xiao Meiniang not understand?
Two days passed quickly, and it was time for the poetry meeting in Xiangyue Tower to begin.
In the afternoon, sitting on the sedan chair, Lin Yiqiu rushed towards Xiangyue Tower.
He put on the attire of a noble prince and looked elegant, completely losing his original temperament of a eunuch.
Just after turning a corner, Lin Yiqiu saw an old man setting up a street stall through the curtain.
A piece of linen cloth was spread on the ground behind the old man, and many items were placed on top of the linen cloth. The old man also held a bundle of bamboo rings in his hand.
There were quite a few people standing around, all watching the man inside making a circle.
“There is actually a ring game, which I miss a lot.”
Lin Yiqiu suddenly remembered that in his previous life, he liked to play this kind of ring game on the street stalls.
Although the things are not precious, they are really a lot of joy.
"Stop the sedan!"
He waved his hand and the little eunuch quickly put down the sedan chair.
At this time, the old man on the stall also noticed him sideways.
"You guys go back, I'll just go there by myself later."
After dismissing the young eunuchs, Lin Yiqiu concentrated on watching others play.
"Damn it! Missed again!"
At this time, a middle-aged man scratched his head angrily.
He threw ten circles, and they all fell into the open space next to him.
But none of the porcelain, bracelets, Buddhist beads and other items on the linen cloth were found.
"Damn it, if you throw this kind of game around, you won't come back empty-handed."
Lin Yiqiu complained in his heart that people were already crowded inside.
"Get out of the way, or let me come!"
Another wealthy businessman in brocade clothes laughed and then bought ten bamboo hoops.
But his skills were also poor, and after a while he still didn't catch anything.
"Damn! It's so annoying! How much do these things cost? I bought them all!"
Good guy, he was so angry that he was ready to buy them all with money!
Normally, the stall owner would have laughed from ear to ear after hearing this.
But after hearing this, the old man shook his head.
"Sorry, this small business is not worth your expense,"
"Fifty taels! Buy these for fifty taels!"
The wealthy businessman shouted.
The old man continued to shake his head, still not agreeing.
"One hundred taels! One hundred taels is enough, right?"
