Lin Yi looked at Cui Xiaoli's expression and thought for a moment.
"Then why didn't you come to the house earlier? I thought we were already friends." Lin Yi said with a smile. He didn't know what the Cui family was like, but the person in front of him was still friendly.
A feeling of emotion came to Cui Xiaoli's heart. He understood better than anyone else that Lin Yi was trying to relieve his embarrassment, and the price Lin Yi paid might be that he would be entangled with the Cui family. "Friend!" is a word that is too complex.
Cui Xiaoli calmed down her mood, then stood up and bowed deeply to Lin Yi.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for recognizing me as a friend. I cannot do anything to harm my friend for my own selfish reasons. Your Majesty will not hear any requests from the Cui family from my mouth. If the Cui family comes to visit me in person, please
As long as the prince refuses." Cui Xiaoli had a determined look on his face and spoke every word sonorously and forcefully.
This was his promise, and he would do it no matter what the cost. Just because Lin Yi gave him self-esteem, he recognized him as a friend even when he might be in trouble.
A scholar will die for his confidant! Cui Xiaoli deeply understood the emotion in this sentence for the first time. Lin also understood him, his pride, his self-esteem, and his stubbornness not wanting to bow to anything.
How could he do anything to hurt such a person!
"Just call me Xiao Yi. Even if we are friends, of course we should come and visit often, don't you think? Brother Cui." Lin Yi felt that this man was really a man, because his shoulders were willing to carry a lot of things.
He appreciates such responsible people.
Cui Xiaoli smiled, feeling very pleased that his sincerity was rewarded with the same treatment, and it was worth it! No matter what happens in the future, having such a friend is worth it.
With tears in his eyes, he nodded to Lin Yi, straightened his body and walked out of the hall. He felt as if he was reborn, but he still had to make preparations. He had to guard against the Cui family.
.
This guy is good! Lin Yi thought, it seems that if there is anything he can do to help in the future, he can still help, as long as he doesn't make excessive demands from the Cui family's standpoint.
Officials above the fifth rank who could participate in the early court, whether they were civil servants or military attachés, began to take turns visiting Lin Yi, with different attitudes, some were humble and some were arrogant. But the purpose was just to get to know him and mix with him.
He looks familiar. The famous Lin Caishen, and he can also make such magical things. The most rare thing is that he is still very young, and there will be a lot of room for development in the future. The problem is that there are too many officials in Datang.
And as an official, they must pay attention to the direction of the officialdom. When all the important officials ran to the Zhongshan Palace, those low-level officials also began to follow the direction of the wind and come to their door.
The Lin family consumed a lot of tea, and poor Lin Yi had to accompany him all the time to drink tea soup, which made him feel nauseous. He did nothing for almost three days and stayed in the main hall to receive guests. Go around
Another group came, and they were all ranked according to official rank. Could it be that they had negotiated?
Three days later, Lin Yi almost went crazy. He lied about being sick and thanked guests behind closed doors. Then a lot of tonics were sent to Lin's house, leaving Lin Yi speechless for a while.
Jing'er has been very busy these days. She hasn't seen her brother Zhuzi for several days. She misses her for sure, but she really can't leave. And Li Tiezhu can't get any news from Lin Yi's courtyard. Recently, the house has been
There were too many people, and he seemed more low-key and honest. Even though there seemed to be people from all over the Lin Mansion, and it looked like it was easy to get into, in fact, there were more than one or two people helping Lin Yi check, and the emperor would definitely check it.
Again and again, Qin Mansion and Cheng Mansion will also check the details of Lin Mansion's servants from time to time, and sometimes Fang Mansion and Changsun Mansion will also go through the sieve on their own initiative.
Li Tiezhu knew that he must have fallen into their eyes, but it was only because he had been honest up to now that he was safe, so he had to be careful.
Li Chunfeng stayed well in the palace, and was provided with good food and drink. He would lie on the rocking chair and bask in the sun when he had nothing to do. Occasionally, the children would come to talk to him out of curiosity, and then he would start telling fortunes to the direct descendants of important ministers.
Wealth is certain, and good luck is continuous. Of course, even if the result is not like this, he dare not say it. He can only choose something nice to say. Those children also like to listen, so Lin Yi doesn't care about their days, but they
Mixed up.
Li Chunfeng no longer said that Lin Yi was a monster. No one believed him even if he was a monster. What's more, after he was caught in the palace, his life obviously started to get better. Maybe Lin Yi was his lucky star.
But in the dead of night, he was still gazing deeply at the stars in the sky. Those weird and bright stars occupied the position of demon stars. Will they really be okay?
"Master, there are two suitable young men at Donggua's place. Do you want to meet them?" Butler Zhang lowered his body slightly and asked Lin Yi, who was lazily leaning on the sofa. He and the two men who signed the contract of sale
The deputy housekeepers discussed it, and they all felt that those who work well are not as good as those who sell themselves to the palace without any worries, so they asked Donggua to keep an eye on him, as it was difficult to find a suitable servant.
"Take a look. If it's okay, buy it. I'll do some odd jobs in the house first and observe it for a while." Lin Yi didn't want to move at all. It wasn't because he was physically tired, but because his mind was tired from being tortured. It was really hard to talk to those officials.
It is rare to have two or three meanings in one sentence. But it is a good way to cultivate mental power. During those three days, Lin Yi's mind kept racing, and his mental power also improved slightly.
While Li Chengqian was laughing at Lin Yi, he was also tortured. Those magic circle requirements were very strict. If he made a small mistake, he would be completely charged. Now he was just practicing drawing on white paper. When Lin Yi thought he could pass the test,
They would give him various stones or branches and ask him to draw the same magic circle on them, which made it more difficult for him.
After so many days, he learned a magic circle, which is still the simplest, and can only be drawn on white paper. Now he is holding a crooked branch, squinting his eyes, like embroidery, bit by bit
A dotted painting. Although this kind of magic circle full of countless breakpoints is definitely not usable, but... get used to it first. Li Chengqian does not expect that he can succeed overnight.
Those naughty boys were beaten a small amount every three days and a large amount every five days. The more they beat each other, the better their feelings became, so Lin Yi didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Fang Jundao was very patient and played with Xiao Wu every day. He had a lot of fun playing with various building puzzles made by Lin Yi.
Lin Ying occasionally played a role of comforting those boys when they were fighting. But Changsun Chong was playing the opposite role, lecturing a few words on this and scolding a few on that. As a result, the more they fought, the more energetic they became.
The two sides in the conflict are always dominated by the Cheng family brothers and the Yuchi family brothers. They are both children of military commanders and there is no such thing as humility. Qin Wei and Du He are completely useless. They can't help anyone. It all depends on their mood that day.
Already.
Among these children, Changsun Chong is the most cunning. He is not involved in every fight, but it is always because of him that the fights between these children become more and more lively. He is completely a character who is not afraid of trouble and is responsible for adding fuel to the fire.
.
Lin Yi only had one feeling: This boy really looks like his father!
As far as he knew, there were several conflicts between civil servants and generals that were provoked by Changsun Wuji's few words. Then he hid aside to watch the fun, and occasionally added a few words to make the scene more heated. After that, the emperor came out to lecture.
, both parties turned into unreasonable sophistry. In the end, the emperor won!
