Kyoto.
Lin Hui left the palace with Huo Du's oral instructions and went straight to the residence of the Minister of War.
Li Moyan, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Lin Hui were brothers in the same school. In normal times, the two families had close contacts.
Lin Hui received an order from Chu Tian to unite the ministers in Kyoto, protect himself wisely, and leave Chu with the talents to govern the country, so the first person he would definitely look for was Li Moyan.
In addition, he also wanted to know why the ministers in the court did not retreat to the palace with the emperor at the critical moment, but chose to abandon the emperor, hide in their own homes, and let the emperor be killed by the rebels.
Lin Hui arrived at the door of Li Moyan's house and was stunned when he saw the white sail hanging on the door.
"Open the door!" Lin Hui slapped the door of Li's house hard.
There are not only white sails hanging outside the door, but also white lanterns.
An old voice inside asked, "Who is it?"
"Me! Lin Hui!"
"Who in the house died?"
No one answered inside.
Lin Hui quickly knocked on the door and asked, "Are you Butler Cao? Tell me who is gone?"
Even though Lin Hui clapped his hands, no one inside responded.
After a long time, when Lin Hui thought that there was no one else in the Li Mansion except Butler Cao, the door creaked and opened a crack.
A big hand stretched out and pulled Lin Hui in.
Before Lin Hui could recover, a huge fist hit him head on.
"How dare the seller come out to the world for something he seeks for glory!"
From the sound, Lin Hui knew that the owner of the fist was Li Moyan, and quickly grabbed Li Moyan's arm with both hands.
"Are you crazy?"
"it's me!"
"I'm Lin Hui!"
Li Moyan's other fist hit him immediately, "You're the one I'm hitting!"
"The seller wants to be honored, but he still dares to come to see me! Let's see if I don't beat you to death!"
Lin Hui knew as soon as he heard that Li Moyan had misunderstood, and quickly grabbed Li Moyan's other arm, "Junior brother! Listen to my explanation!"
"What's there to explain? They all called Huo Dou Emperor in the main hall! What else can you explain?!"
Li Moyan punched him one after another, not giving Lin Hui a chance to explain.
Lin Hui had to fight back. While fighting, he asked, "I also want to ask you, weren't you guarding the emperor that day? Why was the emperor killed by the rebels when you were alive and well?"
It was better not to say this. After hearing this, Li Moyan's blood suddenly surged and he fainted.
Lin Hui stopped quickly and stepped forward to hug Li Moyan, "Junior brother!..."
Butler Cao came over in a hurry, "Sir!..."
"Junior brother!..."
Lin Hui stretched out his hand to pinch Li Moyan's body and said, "Steward Cao, hurry up and call the doctor over. Junior brother, what's wrong with him?"
Butler Cao rubbed Li Moyan's heart beside him and replied, "The doctor has been sent away by my lord! Alas! My lord, he is feeling miserable!..."
The two of them were at a loss when Li Zhi came from the backyard.
"Father!……"
Li Zhi squatted next to Li Moyan, took Li Moyan from Lin Hui's hand, and called out repeatedly.
"Father!……"
"Father!……"
"Ah!..." Li Moyan finally took a breath and shouted.
"Father! Let's go back to the room!" Li Zhi picked up Li Moyan and left.
"Put me down!" Li Moyan pushed Li Zhi away.
"I'm going to kill this seller for glory!..." As soon as Li Moyan's feet landed on the ground, he rushed towards Lin Hui.
Li Zhi quickly hugged Li Moyan from behind, "Father, we have something to talk about! If Uncle Lin really defected to the rebels, there is no way he could escape from the hands of our father and son today!"
Li Zhi glared at Lin Hui angrily.
Lin Hui didn't feel that Li Moyan and Li Zhi were going too far at all. On the contrary, this attitude made him more candid with each other.
"Let's go in and say, I have something important to discuss with you. It just so happens that my nephew is also at home. This is better!"
Lin Hui explained and walked into the main hall of the Li family first.
"Hmph!" Li Moyan snorted coldly and shook his sleeves, "I want to see how you can say that black is white!"
In his heart, he also wanted Lin Hui to have a reasonable explanation.
He also didn't want his fellow apprentices to turn against each other.
Lin Hui went in and sat down. Li Moran didn't care and sat down on the seat next to him.
"Say!..." Li Moyan sat down, reached out and patted the table, glaring at Lin Hui angrily.
Lin Hui raised his lips and smiled, "Junior brother! I am not your prisoner!..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Moyan stood up immediately, "If you have nothing to say, we will fight to the death!"
Seeing that Li Moran was really serious with him, Lin Hui quickly said, "I'm seeing His Highness the Seventh Prince!"
"Ah!..." Li Moyan stood on the floor of the main hall and immediately paused.
Li Moyan had already received the news that the Seventh Highness and the six princes and concubines had escaped from the palace.
Could it be? …
"His Royal Highness Seventh said that he was with the six princes and concubines, and ordered me to unite with the courtiers loyal to Da Chu to lurk and wait for him to come back!"
"..." Li Moyan remained silent, as if he was considering whether what Lin Hui said was true.
Who doesn't know that His Highness is as cowardly and incompetent as a rat? Even if he escapes, he can only live in an ignoble existence and will he be able to come back one day?
Li Moyan looked at Lin Hui with doubt in his eyes.
"Junior brother, do you think His Majesty Seventh Prince doesn't have the ability to come back?"
"Then you are wrong!"
"When the Seventh Prince went to my house, he jumped from the roof of my bedroom."
"Being able to evade the secret guards I personally trained and enter my bedroom is something that neither you nor I can do!"
After Lin Hui finished speaking, he looked at Li Moran.
Not to mention the secret guards trained by Lin Hui himself, even the soldiers trained by Lin Hui were equal to one for a hundred.
Being able to avoid the secret guards in Lin Hui's house and enter Lin Hui's bedroom directly made Li Moyan feel surprised.
Li Moran's tense body relaxed a little, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Do I need to lie to you?" Lin Hui said, "At that time, His Highness Seventh Prince suddenly appeared. If I hadn't known His Highness Seventh, I would have thought it was a visit from an expert from outside the world."
Li Moyan sat down slowly and asked, "Have you really met His Highness the Seventh?"
Lin Hui nodded heavily, "If I deceive my junior brother with one word, let me be struck to death by thunder!"
Lin Hui swore such a heavy poison, so Li Moyan nodded silently.
In fact, even if Lin Hui did not swear a poisonous oath, Li Moyan still believed Lin Hui's words. He just doubted whether what Lin Hui saw was the real Seventh Prince.
Li Zhi, who had been standing beside him, said, "His Seventh Highness has always kept a low profile. We don't know much about His Highness. Based on His usual performance, His Highness cannot be killed just by killing him."
Lin Hui nodded and said, "Usually, we all mistakenly look at His Highness Seventh. If His Highness Seventh is standing in front of us at this time, you will know that His Highness is always hiding his capabilities and biding his time. This is the day he has been waiting for!"
