"No gift."

Li Chen looked at the wet clothes and pants, and frost could be seen between his eyebrows and hair. Duan Jinjiang was very embarrassed and said lightly: "There are so many things that Lord Duan has been waiting for a long time."

Duan Jinjiang lowered his head and bowed, "Your Highness is responsible for everything every day, and the old minister can wait."

"Mr. Duan understands the truth so well, so I feel comforted."

The smile on Li Chen's face gradually calmed down, and he looked at Duan Jinjiang and said, "There is no need to play more maneuvers between you and me. Are you here for your son Duan Changmian?"

Duan Jinjiang immediately pressed his knees on the ground and said tremblingly: "The old minister has no choice but to teach his son. The rebellious son has hit Your Highness. It is not an exaggeration to die. I just ask Your Highness to see that the old minister Duan family has passed down three generations, and only one son has been passed on to the family line. For the sake of this, open the net."

"It's okay to bump into my palace. He doesn't know his identity. The so-called "no knowledge" is not guilty, so I won't cure his sins because of this."

Li Chen's tone was indifferent, and he said, "But he took his servants and forced his way into the inn, and he acted in such a rebellious way. He said that he was too small to be incompetent, and said that he was too big to trample on the majesty of the empire. The son of an important minister of the Great Qin cabinet, he broke into a foreign country. Inn, if this matter is spread, how can the power of the Great Qin Dynasty remain?”

Duan Jinjiang knocked heavily on the ground, and he said sadly: "The mistake of the rebellious son is really unforgivable, but please forgive the rebellious son for his decades of hard work. , to fulfill the old minister’s heart as a father.”

"If you say this, if I don't let you go, will it hurt your old minister's heart and your father's heart?" Li Chen said indifferently.

"The old minister dare not."

Duan Jinjiang gritted his teeth and said, "The old minister is willing to return home in order to ask His Highness for forgiveness."

Li Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Duan Jinjiang and said lightly: "Retirement and return home? The current situation is difficult now. Lord Duan is the humerus of the imperial court. It is inappropriate for you to return home at this time."

Duan Jinjiang lowered his head and replied, "The old minister has no choice but to teach his son. I am ashamed of the emperor and his highness. I also ask your nobles to be kind to him. I want your nobles to retire and return home to live their old age. I only ask your nobles to be kind to him. If you can spare the life of the dog son, the old minister will be a good life. Teach it so that it will no longer cause disaster.”

"I believe this."

Li Chen slowly rubbed the hand stove in his hand and said calmly: "But today's Japanese Palace plans to restart the investigation of the tragedy of the Yumenguan Empire that year. Lord Duan was the Minister of War at that time, and was one of the few core figures. If Duan was missing, With the help of my elders, this case is probably more difficult to investigate. Therefore, Master Duan still needs to work hard for a while."

Li Chen's words suddenly raised Duan Jinjiang's heart.

"What does your highness mean?" Duan Jinjiang said calmly, "The tragedy that year has been more than ten years ago. It involves a series of personnel and people who should be killed have been killed. All the offenders should be punished. Why did Your Highness suddenly bring up the old story?”

There was no joy or anger on Li Chen's face, and he said, "When the incident was in anger, my father killed a group of people, the government and the people should understand that the so-called sinners who were punished were just some secrets. To put it bluntly, those who are irrelevant are scapegoats.”

"Those people, the highest position is just the former Yumen Pass guard who had just completed the task of guarding Yumen Pass. After returning to Beijing to report his duties, he was named the Right Minister of War. However, he could not know in advance whether it was his position or before the appointment was transferred. Therefore, Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the real culprit is still hidden in the court.”
