Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Wen Baicao glanced at Lin Jing coldly and sneered, "You don't believe me when I tell the truth, but you consider me when I tell a lie. Lin Jing, I think you are a coward."

Lin Jing's voice was icy but decisive: "Based on what you said, I am willing to believe you, but you probably already expected the Ninth Prince to be stationed a mile outside the city."

Hearing him turn to this topic, Wen Baicao's eyes revealed murderous intent: "It turns out that caring about the queen was fake, and prying into this matter was the real reason."

Lin Jing suppressed his speechlessness and said, "The Eighth Prince deployed his troops today, and then he went to the city wall himself. If I am not a fool, I can guess that the situation is not good."

"What's more, the Eighth Prince is not capable of controlling his subordinates. The matter regarding the Ninth Prince spread like wildfire after he went to the city wall."

"As long as I am not deaf, I will naturally take these rumors into my ears and remember them in my heart."

Upon hearing that it was the Eighth Prince's oversight, Wen Baicao's eyebrows slightly raised, as if revealing a bit of speechlessness, "The Eighth Prince is a man of character. He is different from other princes. I am very optimistic about him."

Lin Jing hit the nail on the head: "It's because he's easy to control."

Wen Baicao smiled and asked, "Isn't this good?"

"That's good, but the Eighth Prince is a human being, not a puppet. I'm afraid your plan will fail." Lin Jing squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.

He was not optimistic about Wen Baicao, and his intention to win her over was thwarted by Han Yi's words. Now, facing Wen Baicao, he became very rational.

Noticing the change in his expression, Wen Baicao curled the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of coldness.

After a while, he smiled and said, "When we first met, you felt a little sympathetic towards me, but when we met the second time, you were wary and suspicious of me. So who said something to you?"

Lin Jing said calmly: "We have different positions."

Wen Baicao shook his head: "You didn't react like this before."

"To be honest, there is not much difference, because your attitude has already explained it all. If I act stupidly, wouldn't that make you unhappy?" Lin Jing pretended to be confused, as if he couldn't understand Wen Baicao's intention.

Wen Baicao chuckled: "When I see an old friend, I don't want to be a fake person anymore. I didn't expect that you could think so much of me just showing my emotions for the first time."

"I really admire you more and more. If possible, I hope you can give up the crown prince and choose me instead of going down this path to the end."

When Lin Jing heard these words, his pupils shrank slightly and his expression changed slightly, "You want to be the emperor?"

Is this what Wen Baicao thought? No wonder he appeared beside the Eighth Prince. He probably thought the Eighth Prince was easy to control and decided to step on him to ascend to the throne.

Wen Baicao was stunned when she heard this. What good is it to be an emperor? He can't even have his own preferences, and he has to work hard for the country until his death.

He doesn't have that much patience, and everything he does now is for revenge.

However, there is some truth in what Lin Jing said. If he is willing, the whole world will be within his grasp.

But his children and grandchildren are all related to Wulan. If he fights for the world, wouldn’t it be a waste of money for the barbarians?

"I don't have such thoughts, don't make random guesses."

Wen Baicao wanted to destroy Dajing, but he was also proud of his identity as a Central Plains person. His children and grandchildren had barbarian blood, and he really didn't want to worry about them.

"You are worried about your child." Lin Jing found Wen Baicao's reaction very interesting. He deliberately observed him, trying to see the changes in his expression. Naturally, he did not miss his entanglement.

"I'm not the emperor. For the throne, I can even sell my conscience." Wen Baicao said meaningfully.

After hearing this, Lin Jing immediately said, "It is precisely because you have such thoughts that I don't think you will be sincere to the Eighth Prince."

The Eighth Prince is the emperor's son, and based on this fact alone, Wen Baicao feels uncomfortable with him.

"Sincerity is not important. What's important is that we can each get what we need." Wen Baicao sighed faintly, "I'm going to see the Eighth Prince. Are you willing to follow me? If not, you can leave now."

He decided to let Lin Jing go and not take his life, just because Lin Jing was right in saying that the crisis brought by the Ninth Prince was more important.

He has to help the Eighth Prince deal with the Ninth Prince. If he can't do it, Lin Jing and Chen Changli will be a breakthrough.

"I thought you would take this opportunity to kill me." Lin Jing looked surprised.

When Wen Baicao had people capture him, he was full of murderous intent. He thought he was dead, but he didn't expect that Wen Baicao would let him go.

"It would be easy for me to kill you, so you should be grateful to me." Wen Baicao took the opportunity to say.

Lin Jing immediately rolled his eyes at him: "You might as well say it was forced by the situation."

Do you really think he doesn't know the reason?

Shaking his head, Lin Jing stretched his arms and legs, then looked in the direction of the city wall.

"I won't go to see the Eighth Prince. Of course, if you reveal my identity and he takes the initiative to come and see me, that's another matter."

After saying this, Lin Jing left carelessly.

Wen Baicao said nothing, but just stared at him for a while before going to see the Eighth Prince.

At this time, Han Yi was disguised as a soldier and staying on the city wall. He noticed the arrival of Wen Baicao, and his eyes were filled with surprise and suspicion, because someone had sent a message saying that Wen Baicao was collecting Li Ye's body.

Because he was standing relatively close to the Eighth Prince, he heard the whole story clearly, so he suspected that Li Ye's death was related to Wen Baicao.

"Where is Li Ye's body?" The Eighth Prince also had some doubts, but he did not show it on his face and just asked.

"I buried him." Wen Baicao said calmly.

He seemed not to notice the Eighth Prince's gaze and continued, "Tu Zhizhi forced Li Ye to death just to clear her suspicion. When I arrived, it was already too late."

Without waiting for the Eighth Prince to sigh, Wen Baicao changed the subject: "What's the situation outside? Did the Ninth Prince send anyone over?"

"No, I suspect that Old Nine is planning to trap me to death here." The Eighth Prince was stunned, and then he clearly realized his situation and suppressed some of his emotions.

After hearing this, Wen Baicao thought for a while and said, "Yongzhou City is originally a self-sufficient place, but the place where the Ninth Prince is stationed happens to cut off the supply area of ​​Yongzhou City."

"And the food in the city can sustain us for two months, so the Ninth Prince has no intention of trapping us to death. He probably wants to wait for us to surrender voluntarily, or for us to give him satisfactory exchange conditions."

When Wen Baicao said this, the Eighth Prince was shocked: "Why do you think so?"

He stayed in Yongzhou for a month, and Lao Jiu spent half a month beating him, and defeated him step by step.

He thought that the next battle would be a life-and-death battle, but he didn't expect Wen Baicao to have such a guess.

He didn't want to take it to heart, but those words drilled into his ears so forcefully that he couldn't ignore them.

Did the Ninth Master really mean this? The Eighth Prince thought uncertainly.

At this moment, Wen Baicao said with a righteous look on his face: "Your Highness, I am willing to make a trip for you, and I hope you can allow it."

The Eighth Prince's expression did not change, but his tone was cold: "You are a businessman. How can a lowly businessman be qualified to meet the Ninth Prince on my behalf?"
