A few days later, we set up camp in Nushan.
Lin Ye was sweeping the yard with a broom when he saw Monk Hua appearing at the door. He cautiously poked his head in and grinned when he saw Lin Ye.
Lin Ye motioned for him to come over, and then Monk Hua ran up to Lin Ye.
"Master, everything is done."
Monk Hua said: "According to the instructions of the sect leader, our people have all withdrawn from Geling City."
Lin Ye hummed: "You must have a tail following you all the way."
Monk Hua said: "Yes, the people who watched us go all the way north. When I turned back quietly, those who followed us were still there."
He asked: "Master, we have evacuated everyone from Geling now. It will not be so easy to come in again in the future."
Lin Ye said: "If you think it's not easy to come in, then don't come in. There will be times when it's easier."
Monk Hua said: "But we worked hard to get here. If we all evacuate because of such a trivial matter, I would feel a little unwilling."
Lin Ye said: "The emperor knows how much effort we put into entering Geling City."
Monk Hua was slightly stunned, not understanding what Lin Ye meant by this sentence.
Outside the door, Ning Zhu led Xue Tongchui and followed him in. As soon as he saw Lin Ye, Xue Tongchui trotted away.
Xue Tongchui opened his hands for a hug. Lin Ye looked at his round figure and shook his head slightly, indicating that you should have some idea.
Xue Tongchui didn't care about that and jumped up directly. Lin Ye had no choice but to hug him. Lin Ye even misunderstood that this guy was now worse than Zinai's axe.
Monk Hua said: "What the sect master means is that when we came in with so much hard work, we deliberately showed it to the emperor, and when we leave now looking a little embarrassed, it is also for the emperor to see."
Lin Ye nodded: "If our people don't enter Geling City and the emperor doesn't believe it, he will definitely think that we have greater strength, strength that even he can't detect, and he will increase his efforts to search."
After being reminded by Lin Ye, Monk Hua immediately woke up.
He said: "I understand. Regardless of whether we come to Geling or not, the emperor will feel that we have come. So we should simply enter Geling in a way that is acceptable to the emperor, and then leave Geling in a way that is acceptable to the emperor, so as not to cause trouble to the emperor." Doubt again.”
Lin Ye said: "How can a person like the emperor not doubt it like this? He just won't be as suspicious as before."
Monk Hua sighed: "Being an official is really tiring. If you don't have eight hundred tricks in your heart and eight thousand twists and turns in your head, whoever becomes an official will be unlucky."
He asked: "Master, what should we do now?"
Lin Ye said: "You can't avoid the emperor's eyes even if you turn back halfway."
Monk Hua was startled: "Then... what should I do?"
Lin Ye smiled and said: "No matter what, just stay with me."
After thinking for a while, Monk Hua asked tentatively: "Just like when we were in Yunzhou, the emperor knew that we had something, but he didn't know how much we had, so he took out the cobwebs and dried them for the emperor to see. , we came back this time, we also want the emperor to see it."
Lin Ye nodded: "That's almost the truth."
Monk Hua said: "Sect Master, you are indeed more ill-intentioned than others, and every one of you has the ill-intentions of others."
Lin Ye: "Thank you for complimenting me."
Monk Hua said: "When the emperor's people see a few of us coming back, they will report it to the emperor. The emperor will think that Lin Ye still wants those people to come back to him at this time. It seems that there is really no other helper, otherwise It wouldn’t be that risky.”
Lin Ye: "If you were less discerning, you wouldn't realize it so quickly."
Monk Hua said: "My scheming is all acquired."
Lin Ye: "Huh?"
Monk Hua: "I'm going to take a rest first..."
After saying that, he ran to the side and sat down.
Lin Ye looked at Ning Zhu: "He's strong again."
Ning Zhu chuckled.
With his current appearance, who can still tell that he was once the skinny, petite and frail twenty-third senior brother in the martial arts school?
Ning Zhu said: "Senior Brother Mo hasn't come back yet. He said he wanted to see Senior Brother Chen before he left. After all, we haven't seen him for a long time. We told him that we would come back after seeing him. He said he would come back if he figured it out. , couldn’t figure it out and went back to Yunzhou.”
Lin Ye could probably guess what Mo Wutong was confused about. Mo Wutong seemed to have many eyes, but he was actually simple.
He felt that they were all brothers. There was something we couldn't talk about, and there was something we couldn't work together.
He has grown up, but he still has the same mentality as when he was in the martial arts school. He just stubbornly believes that a family will always be a family no matter what time it is.
If he still can't figure out why the family became estranged after meeting Chen Weiwei, then he probably doesn't want to stay in Geling, even if there is his favorite Qingyu River in Geling City.
"It's better for him to find an answer, otherwise he'll get into trouble and it won't be easy for him to get out of his temper."
After Lin Ye said this, he took Ning Zhu's luggage and walked in and said, "I have packed up all your rooms, and this courtyard is just for you to live together. It is convenient for you to live together. "
Ning Zhu nodded vigorously and smiled.
Lin Ye said: "Leaving Yunzhou all at once and coming to this strange place may take a long time to adapt."
Ning Zhu said: "I'm not afraid."
Xue Tongchui: "I'm not afraid either."
Lin Ye then remembered that he was still holding Xue Tongchui and carrying several people's luggage, so he glanced at Xue Tongchui.
Xue Tongchui pretended not to see it.
He said: "Senior Brother Twenty-Third is not afraid, and I am not afraid either."
Lin Ye asked: "Why aren't you afraid? You left home at such a young age, and you don't know how long it will take to go back."
Xue Tongchui said: "I don't know, but I'm just not afraid. Let the twenty-third senior brother say that I am the stupidest."
Ning Zhu said: "At that time, before leaving Yunzhou, my parents and other senior brothers' parents went to ask our master and his wife together."
"My parents asked Master and Master, if you follow the general to Geling, you will definitely have a good future, right? Master and Master said, you will definitely."
"My dad said that actually, he doesn't care how big his future is. After all, his biggest dream in life is to have his eldest son have enough food and clothing. Considering the conditions at home, it's not difficult to have food and clothing."
Ning Zhu looked at Lin Ye and said seriously: "My father said that he just wanted to ask, following the general, you will do big things, serious things, and be a good thing for the people of Dayu, right?"
"Master said, yes."
Ning Zhu said: "My father said, yes, then our martial arts skills, Ning Zhu's, will not be in vain."
Lin Ye wanted to raise his hand and pat Ning Zhu on the shoulder. He had the luggage in one hand and Xue Tongchui in the other. He decisively put Xue Tongchui aside.
Patting Ning Zhu on the shoulder, Lin Ye said seriously: "I promise you, I will not let you do anything harmful to nature, and I also promise you that no matter what I do, it will be for the future. Those serious things, those big things that your father has in mind."
Ning Zhu nodded vigorously: "I believe it."
Xue Tongchui: "Me, me, look at me."
Lin Ye looked at him: "What do you want to say?"
Xue Tongchui: "Brother Xiao Si, what are you going to eat later?"
Lin Ye: "You are already a ball and you are still eating. I think I need to control you these days."
Xue Tongchui pulled Ning Zhu and said, "Let's go back to Yunzhou. What a shabby place this is. What a shabby Wuwu."
Five-five-twenty-five, no one calls Lin Ye that except him.
The group packed up their things and moved into the company camp located at the foot of the mountain. This is where they will live for the next few years.
Geling City, Zhenyuan Palace.
The emperor listened quietly to Gu Xiujin's report. He nodded and said, "Tell people to take it back. There is no need to follow him all the way to Yunzhou. Lin Ye is not stingy, and I can't be stingy anymore."
Gu Xiujin responded and turned around to tell the little eunuch next to him to get the matter done.
The emperor asked: "How do you think Lin Ye handled this matter?"
Gu Xiujin said: "The general may have thought that the saint would not like him bringing people here before he came to Geling."
The emperor smiled and said: "Of course he knows that I don't like it, but he still asked people to prepare in advance. Why?"
Gu Xiujin thought for a while and had an answer in his mind, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, so he shook his head and said, "My thoughts are still far from the truth."
The emperor said: "Even if you think of it, you don't dare to say it. Lin Yeming knew that I didn't like it, but he still brought people here because he knew that even if he didn't bring people, I wouldn't believe it."
Gu Xiujin said to his heart, sage, sage, you and the general are really tired. He is tired too, sage, you are tired too.
Why bother?
He even saw it in the emperor's eyes. The emperor was very happy about this kind of battle-like behavior with Lin Ye.
enjoying the moment.
This is what Gu Xiujin can't understand. Why is there such a behavior of constantly testing each other, but still having to trust each other?
Just for fun?
He didn't believe it. He had been with the Emperor for so many years, and he had never seen the Emperor do anything just for fun. The Emperor's self-discipline was terrifying.
"what's on your mind?"
At this time, the emperor suddenly asked Gu Xiujin, which shocked Gu Xiujin. He was really distracted.
"Back to the saint, it's just random thoughts."
"Bullshit, anyone who is distracted can be said to be thinking wildly, but you can't, because you have served me for so many years and rarely get distracted. When you are distracted, you must be thinking about something that you can't figure out."
The emperor looked at Gu Xiujin: "Tell me about it."
Gu Xiujin had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "I am thinking that the saint has deep faith in the general, and the general is loyal to the saint, but..."
The emperor said: "But why do I always test him again and again?"
Gu Xiujin leaned over and said, "I deserve to die for my crime. I dare not speculate about the Sacred Heart."
The emperor smiled and said: "I said that there are only two people who will not make me angry no matter how they try to guess my thoughts. One is the imperial concubine and the other is you."
His fingers tapped on the table lightly, which sounded rhythmic, which was enough to show that the emperor was in a good mood.
The Emperor said: "There are two reasons why I want to test him again and again. The first and most important reason is that I want to see where Lin Ye's upper limit is."
This answer is ancient and modern.
Before Lin Ye appeared, the emperor only had appreciation for General Liu Jigong, but it was far less than his appreciation for Lin Ye.
So His Majesty tested Lin Ye either to doubt Lin Ye or to know where this young man's upper limit was.
How much brains does he have? He can always cope with the emperor's temptations without appearing to be too far behind.
The emperor has almost no opponents. Now that Lin Ye is here, the emperor will indeed find it very interesting.
Gu Xiujin asked cautiously: "Then, what about the second reason?"
The emperor replied: "The second reason is because I don't want to test and find out that he has an upper limit."
Gu Xiujin was stunned.
The emperor closed his eyes, exhaled slowly and said: "I don't even hope, he has a lower limit."
This time, Gu Xiujin didn't understand again.

[Recently, I feel that my body has finally recovered. Although my heart rate can reach over 100 every now and then, I am not as tired as before. So I hope everyone is healthy. Maybe it was because my physical fitness was a little worse before, so it took me so long. I have just recovered. There have been fewer typos in the past two days, right? Hahaha, I apologize to everyone for my perfunctory behavior before. 】
[The second thing is that I saw a friend say that he hopes to have more updates. I have been in good shape these days. I have three or four chapters saved, but it is obviously not enough for more updates. But what I mean is that I will continue to save the manuscripts to ensure that I celebrate the New Year. Updated continuously during this period. 】
