Chapter 567 [Go back to Nanjing, see Hong'er again] six
Hearing this, Gao Mingheng quickly knelt down to Mu Linfeng again, kowtowed and said, "Thank you so much for your trust, Your Majesty, for serving me, Gao Mingheng, both front and rear, and I will swear to serve you, Your Majesty, to the death!"
Mu Linfeng helped Gao Mingheng up, and then led Gao Mingheng into a secluded room, and then said: "Now I give you a secret order to secretly inspect all officials in Nanjing..."
Gao Mingheng said quickly: "These matters have always been the affairs of Jinyiwei and Dongchang. I am just the prefect of Nanjing!"
Mu Linfeng smiled and said: "The imperial court has just been established, and there are still many things that have not been fully considered. Jinyiwei and Dongchang were both institutions of the previous dynasty, and they were banned in this dynasty... Could it be that, Mr. Gao, you are afraid of offending these powerful people?"
Gao Mingheng's expression changed when he heard this, and he immediately knelt down to Mu Linfeng and said seriously: "I am only loyal to the prince, and I am not afraid of any powerful person!" |
Mu Linfeng patted Gao Mingheng on the shoulder, and then said: "I am not loyal to my king, I am loyal to the emperor and the court!"
Gao Mingheng knew that he had made a mistake and immediately said: "Yes, yes, yes, I made a mistake!"
After Mu Linfeng signaled Gao Mingheng to stand up, he said to Gao Mingheng, "No one else knows about this except you and me. Can you guarantee it?"
Gao Mingheng immediately nodded in agreement. Mu Linfeng laughed, patted Gao Mingheng on the shoulder and said, "Do one thing for me first. Go to the cell and bring Li Xin!"
After hearing this, Gao Mingheng immediately retreated to the cell, but he was thinking in his heart: "This is the first time that the prince has met me today, why did he ask me to handle such an important and confidential matter?"
Gao Mingheng was thinking all the way, but he still couldn't figure out why he came here. He thought to himself: "It seems that I still need to discuss it with the teacher!"
After Gao Mingheng left, Mu Linfeng sneered, looked at Gao Mingheng's back and secretly said, "Will you inform Wang Zhizhen?"
After a long time, Gao Mingheng took Li Xin to the door of the room. Mu Linfeng ordered Li Xin to be brought in, so that no one could enter at will outside the room.
Today, Li Xin is covered in pain, his face is swollen and has lost its original appearance, and the prison clothes on his body are stained with blood. Apart from the resentful look in his eyes, Mu Linfeng is really not sure that the man kneeling in front of him is the handsome man in the past.
The dashing Li Xin.
Mu Linfeng looked at Li Xin now, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his heart, but when he thought of how Li Xin deceived Hong'er and dealt with Hong'er, his anger immediately surged up, and the trace of sympathy and compassion that he had had disappeared immediately.
Mu Linfeng saw Li Xin kneeling on the ground with shackles on his hands and feet. Although he was kneeling on the ground, there was an unyielding and unyielding attitude in his eyes. Mu Linfeng sighed and said to Li Xin: "Mr. Li, if it weren't for you and me,
If there is Hong'er between us, maybe you and I can become friends!"
Hearing this, Li Xin looked at Mu Linfeng, suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled, saying: "Stop being so hypocritical in front of me, kill or behead me as you please!"
Li Xin could not speak clearly at this moment. Mu Linfeng knew that he must have insulted him when he was imprisoned, and that was why he was tortured like this by the government officials, but he could still vaguely hear what Li Xin said.
Mu Linfeng looked at Li Xin and said after a long time: "Hong'er has returned to Nanjing!"
Li Xin's face changed when he heard this, and he looked a little surprised, and seemed to be a little unbelievable, and he hesitated to speak.
Mu Linfeng sneered when he saw this, and then said: "Hong'er asked Mu to say hello to you! She said she was grateful to Mr. Li for taking care of her when he was in northern Shaanxi, and she will never forget it in her life!"
Li Xin snorted coldly when he heard this, and said calmly: "You don't have to be weird. Since Hong'er has already come to Nanjing, you naturally know everything. Why do you need to be pretentious here? Since you already know everything, you must come here to kill me.
Bar?"
Li Xin closed his eyes and said coldly: "Let's do it, no need to talk nonsense!"
Mu Linfeng looked at Li Xin, and suddenly thought of Hong'er's words to plead for Li Xin. Looking at Li Xin's miserable appearance at this time, he really couldn't bear to do anything. After a long sigh, he said: "You are right, Mu.
I came here this time to take your life..."
As Mu Linfeng spoke, he looked at Li Xin and saw that Li Xin could not help but tremble when he heard that he was really here to take his life.
Mu Linfeng sneered in his heart. After all, he was still a scholar, and he was still greedy for life and afraid of death. He then said: "But you have a good life. Although you are sorry for Hong'er, Hong'er still begged for you. Hong'er cried and asked me to plead for you, saying
No matter how you treat her, she will remember your kindness to her in the past and ask me to spare your life no matter what..."
When Li Xin heard this, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at Mu Linfeng. The look in his eyes was also very strange. This book was first published on paó8.Сom сΝ
Mu Linfeng sneered and said: "Go away. Originally, I would never let you live until tomorrow, but seeing your appearance now, killing you would be dirty on my hands..."
Li Xin suddenly burst into laughter and said, "You actually let me go...it was Hong'er who begged for mercy..." He laughed again, and even started to cry while laughing.
Mu Linfeng opened the door, stood at the door and hesitated for a while, turned to look at Li Xin, and then said to Gao Mingheng: "Let him go!"
After Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he left the government office without looking back, but he could still hear Li Xin's crying, and sighed in his heart: "I hope today's decision will not make me regret it in the future!"
Back at Mu Mansion, Hong'er was waiting for Mu Linfeng. When she saw Mu Linfeng returning, she immediately stepped forward and took Mu Linfeng's hand. She hesitated to speak, as if she wanted to ask something, but she never said it.
Even if Hong'er didn't ask, Mu Linfeng knew what Hong'er wanted to ask. After looking at Hong'er for a long time, he sighed and said: "Finally solved!"
As soon as Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he felt Hong'er's hand holding his arm tremble, and it held her tighter. If he hadn't known Hong'er's feelings for him, he would have been a little jealous, so he quickly said: "He won't do it in the future.
Now it’s between us!”
Mu Linfeng was deliberately vague, mainly because he wanted to tease Hong'er, but when Hong'er looked at Mu Linfeng for a long time, he let go and said: "You should kill him..."
Mu Linfeng pretended to be surprised: "Kill him? Kill who?"
Hong'er turned to look at Mu Linfeng and asked, "Didn't you kill him?"
Mu Linfeng continued to pretend: "Who? I can't understand Hong'er anymore!"
Hong'er stamped her feet and said, "You clearly know who they are talking about!"
Seeing Hong'er's appearance, Mu Linfeng was even more moved. Then he laughed, hugged Hong'er tightly and said, "I've already let him go!"
Hong'er heard the words and said happily: "Mu Lang, are you serious?" She still seemed a little unconvinced and said: "Then you just said that he will not appear between us in the future?"
Mu Linfeng nodded and said: "Yes, I let him go back to northern Shaanxi. He is no longer in Nanjing, so naturally he will not appear between us!"
Hong'er immediately said: "Mu Lang, you are so bad and scary!"
Mu Linfeng smiled slightly, held Hong'er's hand, kissed her lips, and then said: "Hong'er let me do it, how could I not do it? Yesterday I just knew that Hong'er suffered so much tears in northern Shaanxi,
Just angry words said in a moment of anger!"
Hong'er snuggled into Mu Linfeng's arms and said softly: "I knew you, Mu Lang, are not the kind of person with a small belly and a chicken heart!"
Mu Linfeng chuckled and said, "That's not necessarily the case. If he falls into my hands next time, he won't be so lucky. The so-called three things can only happen!"
