"How many days have I slept?"
"one day one Night."
"so long!"
Lin Bei looked up with surprise in his eyes.
"Have the remaining rebels been killed?"
"Um."
Lin Bei didn't ask any more questions, Ah Yue stopped talking, and suddenly the only sound left in the quiet room was the sound of Lin Bei eating.
"Lin Bei!"
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded. The two people in the room were slightly startled, and the door was already pushed open.
The door opened wide, and the maids filed in one after another, holding fragrant delicacies in their hands.
Lin Bei put down the empty bowl. When he was stunned, Zhou Jinwei walked into the room and saw Lin Bei woke up, with unconcealable joy in his eyes.
"You are indeed awake! I heard that you were sick, so I asked my servants to make you something delicious."
Lin Bei looked at the large fish and meat placed in front of the bed and felt a little nauseous.
But he didn't show it, he just handed over to Zhou Jinwei: "Miss Zhou, that's not necessary, I can't eat these things now."
"Ah? Are these not to your liking?"
"But these are my favorite foods..."
Zhou Jinwei pursed her lips, feeling a little disappointed. She waved her hands, and the maids took out the table full of delicacies.
"Then what do you want to eat? I'll ask my servants to make it for you."
Zhou Jinwei asked.
Lin Bei glanced at her suspiciously: "No, Miss Zhou, why are you so nice to me now? Are you coveting my beauty?"
"Only ghosts covet your beauty!"
"Did you say something to my grandfather last time on the merchant ship? This was the first time he cared about me!"
Zhou Jinwei was stunned for a moment, then said embarrassedly.
"Hahaha, just because of this, you start to please me? You are an easy guy to bribe."
Lin Bei knew the reason and chuckled.
He just said something casually to General Zhou, but he didn't expect that the girl would take it so seriously.
"Hey! What are you laughing at!"
"It's nothing, I just thought of happy things."
Zhou Jinwei felt her teeth itching with anger when she saw the inexplicable smile on Lin Bei's face.
Why does this guy still deserve a beating?
"I have another bowl here, do you want to eat it?"
At this time, Ah Yue, who was silent on the side, magically pulled out another bowl of meat porridge from behind.
"Yes, yes, Ayue, you are so kind."
Lin Bei felt only five minutes full after eating a bowl, and was still very hungry. He took the meat porridge and wolfed it down.
From an angle that he didn't see, the corners of Ah Yue's mouth slowly curved.
"Seeing that you're okay, I'll leave. Remember what I asked you to help with!"
Zhou Jinwei's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but the next second she raised her chin and said to Lin Bei.
"Inevitable, hurry up and prepare your things."
Lin Bei was full of confidence.
"Hmph, you better hurry up."
The words disappeared outside the door, and Lin Bei and A Yue were left in the room again.
Lin Bei scraped the remaining meat porridge in the bowl and let out a satisfied belch.
"You have a good rest tonight. Your Majesty will let you go to the palace tomorrow."
After Ah Yue said these words, she took the bowl and left the room.
The little emperor is looking for him? Lin Bei was slightly startled, but just as he was about to ask, the latter had already disappeared behind the door.
…
the next day.
Lin Bei followed the palace maid, walking in the palace corridor, and yawned greatly.
After Ah Yue left last night, he slept another night. It was not until this morning that he realized that he couldn't fall asleep.
However, he was still extremely tired and yawned all the way from the mansion to the palace.
"General Lin, His Majesty is waiting for you inside."
"Thank you very much."
Lin Bei nodded and then walked into the imperial study room.
"Xiao Linzi!"
As soon as he walked into the imperial study room, the little emperor's surprised voice sounded. Lin Bei looked at the little emperor trotting towards him with a smile on his lips.
In private, this guy was completely inconsistent with the majestic and inviolable Shang Emperor in the court. He looked stupid and stupid, like the stupid son of the family next door.
"Stop! Your Majesty, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. You don't need to ask anymore."
Lin Bei stretched out his fingers and put them on his palms, predicting the little emperor in advance.
Yin Yuran's ears turned red and he stood there at a loss.
"Your Majesty, Ah Yue said you asked me to come to the palace to find you. Why?"
Lin Bei looked at his retracted hand and asked with a chuckle.
"Nothing serious, I just want to see you."
"Ah? What did your Majesty say? I didn't hear clearly."
Lin Bei looked at Yin Yuran whose lips were moving slightly, tilted his head and said in confusion.
"Ahem, it's nothing. I want to discuss it with you. After the rebel leader was taken to the prison, he didn't say a word. He just said he wanted to see you."
"I summoned you here just to ask for your opinion."
Yin Yuran said seriously.
"Okay, then I will go to Tianlao to see him as he wishes."
Lin Bei nodded.
After burning the incense, Lin Bei's figure appeared in front of the Tianlao.
In the dim corridor, Prison History opened the cell door.
"General Lin, the person locked inside is the leader of the rebels."
"Thank you."
Lin Bei walked into the cell, and the smell of rotten straw hit his nostrils.
A dark figure was lying in a pile of straw. When he heard a noise, he immediately got up, looking alert.
The rebel leader looked at Lin Bei with an extremely complicated expression under his messy hair.
"You, why don't you kill me."
Why should I kill you? It's not too late for me to thank you.
Lin Bei smiled and took out a set of drinking utensils from his arms.
"Is this the last drink? That's fine."
The rebel leader smiled sadly, dragging his ankles and walking to the broken table.
"I will not kill you. I have already interceded for you and pardoned your sins."
Lin Bei filled a glass of wine for him, and the aroma of wine suddenly overflowed in the cell.
Hearing these words, the rebel leader raised his head in astonishment and said absentmindedly: "I designed you to be poisoned by the Heartless Gu. I want to take your life. Why are you..."
"No reason, just because I am happy. I admire you. Don't say more. This wine is a special offer in the capital. Once you leave, I guarantee you won't be able to drink it again."
Lin Bei smiled meaningfully.
How could he kill his nobleman? If the rebel leader could return to Hongyang Country, it would be a big help to kill him. Why not?
The rebel leader lowered his head and said nothing, raised his glass and took a deep sip.
The two of them remained silent until the wine was gone and Lin Bei left the cell. Neither of them said another word.
A few days later, under the warm sunshine, Lin Bei and Ah Yue were riding horses, watching intently as the figure in the distance disappeared.
Ah Yue looked at the genuine smile on Lin Bei's face, her eyes slightly showing doubts.
She also didn't understand why Lin Bei let the rebel leader go, but if Lin Bei didn't say anything, there was a reason, and she wouldn't ask.
"Go back, I should also prepare to go to Jiangbei."
Lin Bei turned his horse's head and looked in the general direction of Jiangbei, his eyes full of hope.
