"It turns out it's Major General Lin, lowered to the rank of Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army, Ye Shuanghe. You're polite."
Unexpectedly, the person who came was Lin Nansheng, who should be thousands of miles away.
Ye Shuanghe's face suddenly turned extremely ugly. Everyone knew that the eldest young master of the Lin family was famous for doting on his younger sister.
Moreover, who is Lin Nansheng? He is not one of those useless pretty boys in the court.
Even if we look at the entire Jin Dynasty, there are very few men like him. Besides, unlike Lin Mengya, the princess who should be in the palace.
He is the real one in power. If Lin Nansheng is angered, it will be even more difficult for him to end what happened today.
However, Ye Shuanghe was still a little unwilling. Before coming, the superiors made it clear that this time, if Lin Mengya's shortcomings could not be grasped, the mother and son must be taken away.
Gritting his teeth, Ye Shuanghe saluted first and still did not make any retreating gesture.
"It turns out that he is the Deputy Commander of the Forbidden Army. I'm rude. However, my sister and wet nurse are just women. I don't know why the Deputy Commander took them all away. Besides, the matter of taking people is naturally done by The government office will do it. If Ye Dutong is like this, isn't he suspected of being an agent?"
Lin Nansheng's rudeness made Ye Shuanghe's expression even worse.
There were rumors in the court that the eldest son of the Lin family was different from his father's elegant and honest temperament.
Lin Nansheng, who has been successful in martial arts since he was a boy, has been known in Kyoto as someone who hates evil.
If Lin Nansheng hadn't marched out with the army, the gangsters in Kyoto would not have had a good life.
His deep gaze locked on Ye Shuanghe so unhurriedly.
His calm and calm posture, even with Lin Nansheng alone, was enough to intimidate this group of forbidden troops.
"What Major General Lin said is, in fact, the purpose of Xianguan's visit this time is to investigate the case of thugs attacking Princess Yu. Tian and her son are the most critical witnesses in this matter. Xianguan also Just drop by and take it to the government office."
Lin Nansheng did not challenge him, but walked up to the gray-haired Tian.
Looking at the wet nurse who had raised him, Lin Nansheng's tough face slowly revealed a gentle smile.
Take off the dark red shawl on yourself. Regardless of Tian's reluctance, it was forcibly tied to Tian's body. Her eyes were the same as those of Lin Mengya, with a hint of guilt as she said softly:
"Nanny, Brother Sheng is here to see you. You have suffered a lot these years. This cloak was given by the current emperor. If you wear it on your body, I don't think anyone would dare to be disrespectful to you."
Mrs. Tian was already in tears, and her withered hands tightly held Lin Nansheng's strong hands.
The children who were nestled in her arms more than ten years ago have grown up to be so outstanding.
My wife passed away so early, and I could only take care of important affairs in the court. She almost raised the Lin brothers and sisters.
Now, seeing these two children, not only have they not forgotten their friendship with him. One or two of them were still protecting themselves regardless of anything, and bursts of relief surged in Tian's heart.
It was as if all the pain he had suffered in order to keep his promise to his wife had completely dissipated.
"Major General Lin, what are you—"
Ye Shuanghe's face was trembling. Needless to say, Lin Nansheng also saw that the outside of the dark red cloak, which was still new and not old, had the pattern of a four-clawed dragon and python.
That is a pattern suitable only for princes and high-ranking princes. The young general in front of him also made it clear that this was a gift from the emperor.
In this way, if anyone dares to touch the Tian family, it will be disrespectful to the royal family.
Although Ye Shuanghe was unwilling to do so, he still understood the importance of this.
"This is my and Princess Yu's wet nurse. Although she is not a prominent person, she has a very good relationship with us and is closely related. If Ye Dutong insists on taking someone, please do so, but I also want to follow you. Let's go together. I just happened to go ask the governor of Kyoto. Under the emperor's feet, thugs hurt people from time to time. Now, they are going to my sister, and they don't take the laws of Jin Dynasty in their eyes. Look. Come on, I have to report it to the court and have a good discussion about what the governor of Kyoto is doing!"
Lin Nansheng grabbed him and glared at Ye Shuanghe.
Suddenly, Ye Shuanghe complained endlessly.
You know, a while ago, for some unknown reason, the former governor of Kyoto was suddenly transferred.
The new one is a selfless master.
Originally, Tian's mother and son were to be kept in the prison of the Forbidden Army. But now, since Lin Nansheng has intervened, he may not be able to do what he wants today.
Lin Mengya had long since recovered from the shock, with a slight smile on her lips.
If someone else came today, things might be easier to handle.
Unexpectedly, the person who came to rescue him turned out to be my brother!
He is also a military general, and his brother is a major general guarding the frontier. Not to mention Ye Shuanghe, a small deputy, even the important ministers in the court had to give some thin noodles to his brother.
Supporting Mama Tian, Lin Mengya patted her hand. No matter what, she must bring Mama Tian and Brother Tian Ning home today!
"It's better not to bother General Lin. Just leave these small matters to your subordinates. Why bother you?"
Ye Shuanghe still wanted to find a reason, but Lin Nansheng looked at him with bright eyes. The general's temperament of killing and decisiveness has already begun to show its edge in this young man.
In desperation, Ye Shuanghe could only grit his teeth. He wanted to take his people away, but he didn't expect that just as he was about to give in, another voice, with a bit of cold anger, sounded from behind him.
"Who was I then? I was just a fourth-grade vanguard general. This is the territory of my Forbidden Army, not your wild land. If you dare to run wild here again, don't blame me for being so merciless!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the person who had just appeared.
Lin Mengya looked at the person in front of her defensively, the rage boiling in her heart almost burning him to ashes.
The person who came had an extremely pale face. Even the lips were devoid of any blood, and therefore looked particularly gloomy and terrifying. The black eyepatch covered half of his face.
But there is always an insidious calculation in the remaining eye.
On his head was a black gauze official hat, decorated with a piece of red jade.
His frail body looked as if he could fall down if the wind blew. However, it was wrapped in a dark purple costume.
A pair of slender hands hung lazily on both sides of the body. He was clearly dressed as a civil servant, but dozens of sturdy soldiers emerged from behind him.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Princess Yu. I am completely clean. Thank you very much for your support."
There was a hint of blood in the cold tone.
Of course, Lin Mengya would not forget the owner of this voice. It was Baili Wuchen who once held her hostage and escaped from the palace.
No wonder she sent many people to look for him but could not find any trace of this scum.
It turned out that Baili Wuchen actually ran to seek refuge with the prince. Now, he has become the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army. There is a reason for being so proud and arrogant.
"The imperial guards are really kind-hearted. A blind wild dog can also find an official position."
Lin Mengya, who was so rude, could not forget the trouble that Baili Wuchen caused to Long Tianyu after his rebellion.
But Baili Wuchen didn't care about her words. Instead, he smiled softly, and his eyes fell on Mother Tian and her son.
"General Lin, as an official of the court, your responsibility is to maintain the stability of the court. Now, the thugs are hurting people, and my people come to investigate. Not only do you not let him investigate the case, you also take away our witnesses privately. Is it possible? , does this thug have something to do with you? Or are you anxious to imprison the hostages, or more directly, do you want to kill people and silence them? "
Baili Wuchen opened his mouth and pressed Lin Nansheng with a charge that could make Lin Nansheng furious.
Lin Mengya was angry, but also aware.
Baili Wuchen is used to confusing right and wrong, and the evildoers will complain first. Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the worse. She frowned slightly, but she still wouldn't let Baili Wuchen take Mother Tian and Brother Tian Ning away.
"Baili Dutong, it's good that you and I are both of the fourth grade. But don't forget that you, the Dutong, are in charge of the education of the Forbidden Army. The patrols and duties outside are arranged by another Dutong. I Although I am just a vanguard general, I am in charge of the external affairs of the imperial court. The people under your command are disrespectful to Princess Yu, and you, the commander in charge of internal affairs, cannot escape the blame."
Lin Mengya looked at her brother in surprise, although she was applauding her brother's wit in her heart.
However, in her memory, her brother did not have such good eloquence.
It seems that my brother has really changed a lot during his military career over the years.
"I originally thought that General Lin has only been fighting on the battlefield these years. I didn't expect that you are also proficient in court affairs. Yes, although I manage the internal affairs, but when it comes to the imperial army, that's me It is also a matter of the imperial court. If General Lin blocks things like this, isn't that because he is disrespectful to the imperial court and wants to rebel?"
Baili Wuchen was still smiling sinisterly, and no one could see through his thoughts. Even Ye Shuanghe, who was on the same side as him, couldn't help but shudder.
It should be said that what they are most afraid of is not the chief minister or the prince. It's this Baili Dutong who was transferred to manage internal affairs not long ago.
You know, if you offend most of the princes, you will be beaten with military sticks and fined with salary. If not, you will be kicked out of the imperial army.
But offending this Baili Dutong was said to be worse than death.
Suddenly, he could only watch Baili Wuchen and Lin Nansheng confront each other with awe.
