Regret Records of Cultivating a Tyrant

"So what if you don't speak Yong'an very well?" Han Shiqing was puzzled, "Just because of the accent, we can't be friends anymore?"

"Young master misunderstood." Lin Shicheng hurriedly defended, "Because I met many young masters in Yong'an City along the way, and most of them don't like to talk to me, so I think young master..."

"I'm different from them." Han Shiqing waved his hand, "I'm because I see you're a nice person, so let's get acquainted. If you find it troublesome, just ignore me."

"No, I really want to make friends with the young master!" Lin Shicheng answered hurriedly, Han Shiqing was taken aback and laughed.

"I think I should be two or three years older than you. In the future, don't call me a son, just call me..."

"Brother Shiqing." Before Han Shiqing could say "Brother Han", the words were blocked by Lin Shicheng's address.

This intimate name made him frown, but seeing Lin Shicheng's eyes were clear and looking at him sincerely, he couldn't say anything to refuse, so he had to acquiesce in this name.

After the two exchanged names, they made an appointment to have lunch together.

After chatting for a whole afternoon, Han Shiqing found out that Lin Shicheng was still a young genius, and he passed the examination of scholar at a young age, and now he is only 15 years old when he enters Beijing for the examination of Juren.

During the period, Lin Shicheng confessed to Han Shiqing that his family was doing business in the south, so he carried so many banknotes with him.

Han Shiqing secretly sighed richly, and asked casually, "What business?"

Lin Shicheng just laughed, changed the subject skillfully, and didn't answer him.

Han Shiqing didn't ask further.

Back at the inn, after the two said goodbye, Han Shiqing lay on the bed, wanting to take a nap.

He recalled what happened today, searched the name Lin Shicheng in his mind for a while, and sat up suddenly.

He remembered!

Lin Shicheng is no ordinary person!

He didn't know much about the court in his previous life. Although he followed Jiang Yu to the northern border as a soldier for a period of time, the sky was high there and the emperor was far away, and there were still a group of iron-blooded men who only knew how to fight barbarians. There are not so many twists and turns, so he really doesn't know what the names of those civil servants are.

But after Jiang Yu became emperor, he reshuffled the court and cleaned up the influence of the left minister, and made an exception and directly promoted a fourth-rank official to the position of left minister.

It is said that Wenchen was the number one scholar in the imperial examination in 79 years of the old calendar. He became a fourth-rank official through hard work step by step. Because he secretly helped Jiang Yu in his most difficult time, he was so reused.

And the name of that civil servant is Lin Shicheng.

It is now the 78th year of the old calendar. If Lin Shicheng wins the Juren examination this year, then he will be able to take the Gongsheng examination next year, and participate in the palace examination in the same year...

Definitely a person!

Thinking of this, Han Shiqing scratched his hair irritably, feeling unhappy for a while.

He thought Lin Shicheng was a good kid, so why did he like Jiang Yu?

Lin Shicheng said that he wanted to be a good official, a clean official, and work for the poor.

Such a person chose to support Jiang Yu, which surprised him.

At night, Lin Shicheng did not fall asleep, but quietly hid the dagger under the quilt, closed his eyes and listened to the movement in the house.

He exposed his wealth during the day, and there would be trouble at night, so it was right to make some preparations.

About half an hour later, the windows in Lin Shicheng's room creaked slightly, and then there were footsteps that were so soft that they were almost inaudible.

Lin Shicheng clenched the dagger tightly, and the moment the visitor walked to the bedside, he threw the quilt in his hand at the person. When the thin quilt slid down, the sharp dagger was already close to the thief.

It's just that his knife didn't hurt anyone after all. Instead, someone grabbed his wrist and stopped firmly in the air.

"Young master, the reaction is good." The man with slender phoenix eyes raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I've made progress."

"Uncle Liao." Seeing Liao Yunfan, Lin Shicheng loosened his wrist, "Can I knock on the door next time? I thought it was some thief trying to get rich and kill me."

"Who is so blind and dares to attack you?" Liao Yunfan knew Lin Shicheng's skill well. If he hadn't been prepared, the dagger might really be able to stab himself.

"It's always good to be careful when you go out."

"Let me guess." Liao Yunfan teased him, "Could it be that your poor scholarly attire fooled them all? Taking the opportunity to humiliate you, you couldn't get angry after all, so you dumped him with a bank note?"

Lin Shicheng frowned, "Uncle Liao, you sent someone to follow me again."

"Following or not, don't say it so harshly." Liao Yunfan pushed the person on the stool and sat on the other side, "I also care about you."

After chatting a few gossips, Liao Yunfan poured himself a cup of tea, pointed to the wall of the next room, "Have you met Shi Qing?"

"Ah."

"How about it?"

"He is very nice and good-looking, and we can chat very well."

"do you like him?"

Lin Shicheng choked on Liao Yunfan's blunt question, and said after a while: "I like it a little bit."

After speaking, the tip of the ear was still red.

"That's fine." Liao Yunfan took a sip of herbal tea, knocked the quilt on the table, and said seriously to Lin Shicheng, "I want you to help me protect him."

"Huh?" Lin Shicheng didn't understand for a while.

"It means that you can probably understand that no matter what happens around him in the future, you must protect him, and if possible, protect him and his family as well, so as not to make him sad."

"The General's Mansion..." Lin Shicheng's eyes flickered, "That's from Emperor Yuan'an."

He paused, and then said: "It's hard for the Ninth Prince to explain."

Although the Ninth Prince now wants to expand his power and recruit troops, he must rely on their Xuanjinlou's financial support, but Jiang Yu is a royal family after all, and if he insists on standing by the General's Mansion, it may not be good.

"I just need a promise from you. I will tell you how to do it." Liao Yunfan smiled. "If something happens, you can confess me. That kid won't hit me too hard."

"I understand." Lin Shicheng nodded, "I promise you, Uncle Liao."

Liao Yunfan got up and rubbed the top of his hair, "What a good boy."

After that, he jumped out of the window and landed firmly on the side of the inn. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Yu standing directly under the room where Han Shiqing lived, staring at the window with his neck up, without moving.

This time he wanted to come alone, but Jiang Yu asked to follow him, but he didn't go in when he arrived at the place where Han Shiqing lived, so he just stood below and watched silently, his eyes lost in thought.

He still remembered his conversation with Jiang Yu a year ago.

For the first time, Jiang Yu asked him with a confused expression, "Uncle, do you also think I did something wrong?"

Liao Yunfan originally wanted to say that he did something wrong, but he swallowed the words again.

Because, he knew that everything that happened between Jiang Yu and Han Shiqing was due to the two people's different positions, different positions, and different thinking things, which led to differences and enmity.

In his eyes, the fall of the General's Mansion and the resignation of Emperor Yuan'an are inevitable.

Jiang Yu is undoubtedly the talent of the emperor. If he does not claim the title of emperor and implement the New Deal, the suffering of the people will continue forever. This is his responsibility.

And Han Shiqing just didn't understand this.

Shi Qing was a carefree young master, he stretched out his hands to eat and opened his mouth. All he saw was the good side of the dynasty, and he didn't know what kind of carrion was covered under this layer of prosperity.

I have to count right and wrong, the only mistake is that both of them have given their feelings.

Ruthlessness is the strongest, but unfortunately few people can do it.

"Jiang Yu, it's time to go." Liao Yunfan patted Jiang Yu's shoulder to bring him back to his senses, "If you don't leave, you will be in trouble if you are discovered by the Silver Armored Army."

"En." Jiang Yu closed his eyes and followed Liao Yunfan to leave.

But after walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head and stared straight at the window that opened slowly.

Liao Yunfan hurriedly covered his face with a black cloth.

The gazes of Jiang Yu and Han Shiqing met in mid-air.

In the dark night and bright moonlight, Han Shiqing stared at Jiang Yu quietly for a while, then opened his mouth, cleared his throat, and shouted to the place where the two were standing on the street.

"There's a thief—catch the thief—the kid is stealing—"

Jiang Yu & Liao Yunfan: "..."
