Qi Yuan nodded and sat on the floor with a chuckle.
Lin Zhi stared at Qi Yuan angrily the moment he opened his mouth.
"Okay, you liar, thanks to my kindness in saving you, you actually pretended to be deaf and dumb and lied to me!"
Lin Zhi couldn't hide his anger as he spoke. He felt that all the heartache he had suffered just now was fed to the dog.
Lin Jing patted Lin Zhi on the back, and Lin Zhi came back to his senses and sat down next to Lin Zhi, feeling short of breath.
The young man lowered his head without even looking at Qi Yuan. He clenched his hands into fists on his knees and was obviously very angry.
But Qi Yuan didn't really listen to Lin Zhi's words.
Lin Zhi said that he was angry because he misunderstood Qi Yuan as being deaf and mute, and because he was angry that he did not recognize people well and brought a dangerous person here who did not know good or bad, but in fact it was not necessarily the case.
Judging from Lin Jing's attitude toward Qi Yuan, Lin Zhi knew how dangerous the young man in front of him was. They were a bunch of cripples. If he was really someone with evil intentions, he would have lured the wolf into the house.
Especially when Qi Yuan revealed their identity when he opened his mouth, Lin Zhi became more and more vigilant.
What he said was just a test, he was gambling.
But now that Qi Yuan didn't answer, Lin Zhi also understood that this was not someone he could deal with.
Lin Jing's performance was even more mediocre. Even though he was dressed in rags, it was impossible to hide the romantic look in his movements.
It gives people the feeling of being in a shabby room but still living in a luxurious room, sitting quietly with friends.
Qi Yuan was even more satisfied with the young man in front of him.
The only son of General Lin, the defender of Ancheng, and the nephew of Lin Li.
General Lin died on the battlefield after Ancheng was lost. The border troops retreated under Lin Li's order. General Lin's family members died when the city was breached.
It was also because his eldest brother died in battle that Lin Li took the position of border general with the comfort of Emperor Anjia.
This information was revealed by Qi Yuan after sorting out the memories of the original owner Ye Xichen. Most of the books in the East Palace were sent in by Uncle Wang.
Lin Jing heard about it from the palace people.
After all, before the fall of Border Pass, Lin Jing was already a young genius who could compete with the prince.
Qi Yuan made no secret of his satisfaction with Lin Jing, and Lin Jing naturally saw the burning ambition in Qi Yuan's eyes.
But there is more of a playful and teasing attitude in those eyes, a disregard for the world.
But Lin Jing soon understood that the boy in front of him was far more dangerous than he showed, and what he could see might be things Qi Yuan wanted him to know.
He couldn't see through the young man in front of him.
Lin Jing frowned slightly after realizing this.
"I haven't asked for a title yet."
Qi Yuan smiled. It was impossible not to use this talent now that he was at hand.
"My surname is Ye, you can call me Young Master."
Lin Jing frowned even more when she heard Qi Yuan's surname. Ye is the surname of Guo. The young man in front of her is a relative of the emperor, so how could he be reduced to such a state?
Could it be that the second uncle completely lost Daxuan and died?
Although the young man in front of him was precocious, he was trapped in this dark underground and could only make guesses about the outside world based on the words of his younger brother.
Therefore, speculation about the general trend of the world still remains at the level of ten years ago.
Qi Yuan's smile became more casual, his figure straightened up, and his aristocratic temperament was naturally revealed.
Lin Jing saw the imperial temperament between Qi Yuan's brows and remained silent.
Could it be the prince?
Is Daxuan really dead?
Qi Yuan's tone was still normal and he continued:
"My name is Xichen, the former Prince of the East Palace and the new Emperor of Daxuan. If you like, you can call me His Highness, Your Majesty or..."
Qi Yuan saw the shock in Lin Jing's eyes and paused before saying three words one by one.
"Death, country, slave."
Lin Jing's expression was in a daze. After being introduced by Qi Yuan, the defense line was broken, and tears suddenly fell from her eyes.
Lin Jing's tranquil mood completely dissipated. The impact of the word "subjugated slave" on him caused the inner defense he had always maintained to instantly collapse.
His father died in the battle, and his mother and sisters were humiliated to death! His legs were cut off by the Mongol's scimitar. Only his younger brother managed to escape and dragged the unconscious man out of the pile of dead people.
His ability to survive to this day is all due to his faith, hoping that one day Daxuan's army will defeat the Mongolian army and avenge them. In order to witness this day, he gritted his teeth and survived.
But now Qi Yuan told him that Daxuan was dead. Did the country that he thought was so powerful just die?
Lin Jing's expression gradually went crazy, "You lied to me! You lied!"
There was a second uncle guarding the border in Daxuan, and Prime Minister Wang was in charge of the court in Beijing. Daxuan will never die!
If you were really His Highness the Crown Prince, you would never be here as the new emperor of Daxuan!
This is all fake! "
The tranquility and gentleness in Lin Jing's body disappeared completely, and her whole belief collapsed and fell into a nightmare. Her eyes were filled with the ridicule of the Mongolian people, and her ears were filled with the calls of her mother and sisters.
"No, no, no! Kill them, kill them!"
Lin Jing couldn't laugh or cry. Tears kept falling from her eyes and she spoke illogical words. She was obviously delirious.
Qi Yuan frowned slightly at this, and when he met Lin Zhi's angry eyes, he pushed the boy away with one hand and hit Lin Jing on the back of the neck with his other hand.
Lin Jing also fainted as she raised the knife and dropped it.
Qi Yuan looked at Lin Jing who was being held in Lin Zhi's arms and sighed.
The promising talents cannot be used immediately and must be stimulated to cure the madness. They are worthy of the talents he can attract.
"Is everything you said true? Are you really the prince Ye Xichen? Is Daxuan really dead?"
Qi Yuan stood up, his tone still calm.
"If you believe it, it's true. If you don't believe it, it can be false."
As he spoke, Qi Yuan turned his head and looked at Lin Jing, "It depends on whether you want your brother to live in the past or the present, whether you want your brother to live in the past or in the present, whether you want to rely on the dead An Jiadi or follow me."
Lin Zhi looked calm, but in fact he was far less fragile than Lin Jing imagined.
A person who can dig out his brother from the dead is not a stupid boy. You must know that Lin Zhi was only four years old at that time.
Lin Zhi was just gambling. He thought Qi Yuan was a spy in the border army, but he never expected that he would have such an identity.
The Prince of the East Palace is such an amazing genius. When he was three years old, he heard that his brother wanted to be the Prince's companion and planned to return to the capital with his mother.
But everything happened too fast.
My father and the Mongolian army attacked back and forth. In the end, because there were no reinforcements, he was killed outside the pass and not even dead in the capital. Anseong was destroyed and fell into purgatory overnight.
He hid in the tunnel and listened to the screams of his relatives, and all he could do was cover his mouth to keep from making any sound.
He was able to cut off both legs and save Lin Jing, who was still alive, and take good care of her until now. How could Lin Zhi be such a simple person?
"What proof do you have that what you say is true? How could the deep-rooted Wang family allow His Royal Highness to fall to this point? Even if Prime Minister Wang is gone, the Wang family still has the eldest son.
Even if the border pass fell, the second uncle could still guard Yangguan and rely on natural dangers to defend it. The Yangguan military field was rich and there was plenty of food and grass, and the Mongolian army would never break through the pass! "
Qi Yuan looked at Lin Zhi and nodded, "The border pass has indeed not been broken, and General Lin Li is still at Yang Pass."
Lin Zhi's expression did not waver, waiting for Qi Yuan's explanation.
