After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

Seeing the Crown Prince's Consort and her family members reunited and reunited happily, Lu Linzhi was happy from the bottom of his heart. He stood up silently and said in a gentle voice: "My Lord Minister and the Crown Prince's Consort have not seen each other for nearly two years. They must have a lot to talk about. I will not disturb you."

After saying this, he clasped his fists respectfully, then walked out.

Lu Linchu always felt that the fourth brother was now much more distant from him. He didn't know what he had noticed. It seemed that he had to test him.

"Guiyun, you stay with your father-in-law and have a good chat. I'll go out with the fourth brother to see what's going on outside."

After giving the instructions, he immediately stood up and followed Lu Linzhi out.

The two walked to the side of the ship. Lu Linchu dismissed the soldiers first, stared at the surging river for a long time, and then said, "Old Four, thank you for what you did today."

Knowing that he was talking about protecting the Crown Prince's wife and getting out of this situation safely, Lu Linzhi replied in a lukewarm tone: "Third brother, you are too polite. It is only my duty as a humble disciple."

Lu Linchu nodded, his eyes slowly turned to him, and asked in a light tone: "Old Four, do you have any opinion on the disappearance of the jade seal?"

"view?"

Lu Jin's whereabouts are still unknown. Although this person is not a blood relative, he is still a brother in the clan and is loyal to the palace. He didn't want to think of the worst, but all the clues now point to the prince, so he had to think more about it.

Lu Linzhi smiled at him meaningfully and asked in a gloomy tone: "What do you mean by the third brother's opinion?"

Seeing this, Lu Linchu immediately understood.

It seems that he already knew everything.

"Fourth Brother, I know that my father and mother think highly of you, and I also care about our brotherly relationship."

Lu Linchu said solemnly: "However, the founding of the country is imminent, I still hope that you can abide by the rules of monarch and subject, and don't do something disappointing like my elder brother one day."

"Third brother is the future ruler of Daning. I will obey you without any second thoughts."

At this point, Lu Linzhi changed the subject: "But I also hope that Third Brother will not let down those who should not be let down."

With all the rumors about him and the Crown Prince's Consort, Lu Linchu was very sensitive to his words and said coldly, "Don't worry about this matter, Old Four. I know what to do."

Lu Linzhi said nothing more and turned and left.

Obviously, he had a very narrow understanding of his own words. The people he said should not be let down were not limited to the Crown Prince's wife, but also included the meritorious people who were loyal to the Lu family and even the common people under his rule.

Watching him gradually walk away, murderous intent suddenly appeared in Lu Linchu's eyes.

Jiurong City has already produced a man named Lu Linfeng who has ulterior motives. He can no longer allow this man's power to grow step by step, and he can't tolerate him snatching away his Crown Prince's Consort.

Inside the cabin, Fu Guiyun was still chatting with his father and several cousins.

"Ayun, you are really taking a risk this time."

Thinking about his eldest daughter going into danger to save him, Fu Ping still felt a lingering fear in his heart: "Song Weizhao is no longer the same beast as before, you must not be deceived by him."

"Things have passed. My daughter has no ties to him. Father doesn't need to worry about it anymore," Fu Guiyun comforted.

She has always been rational, which made Fu Ping very happy. However, when he thought of his second daughter, he couldn't help but sigh several times: "If your sister had been half as clear-headed as you, the entire Fu family wouldn't have suffered such a disaster."

When Fu Guiyun heard his father mention his younger sister, he didn't know how to describe her.

Come to think of it, I have to be grateful to her this time. She took a gamble and let Chen Lin arrange the assassination of herself and Nalan Yiqing. This idea was extremely stupid and it was probably exactly what Nalan Yiqing wanted.

The eldest sister and Song Weizhao have no foundation at all. They conquered the world entirely with the help of the Alkh Cavalry. Now that they are still not fully grown, they want to eliminate dissidents, which is tantamount to digging their own graves.

Chen Lin had just returned to Dayan, and Nalan Yiqing would certainly do everything he could to guard against him. Fu Yuanshu should have thought of this.

The best way to deal with it is to keep a low profile, help Chen Lin consolidate his position in Dayan, help him and Alhe's group of brave generals form an opposing force, make them fear each other, and use them for one's own benefit. This is the best way to balance the forces of the two sides.

Fu Yuanshu didn't even have that much patience. She was given a good card, but she tore it into pieces by herself.

There was only one possibility that allowed Nalan Yiqing to allow Chen Lin to successfully mobilize the army, and that was that she had already prepared a countermeasure and was hoping that Chen Lin would make a desperate effort so that she could get rid of this person with a legitimate reason.

Well, she had been persuading the prince to try to win back Chen Lin, and now the opportunity has finally come. Even if Chen Lin is not used by the Lu family, it will be difficult for him to be tolerated by Song Weizhao.

But the eldest sister was completely defeated this time, and there is probably no chance of her turning things around.

He did not tell his father about this suspicion. When the boat docked, Lu Chen and his men were already waiting for him at the riverside.

Seeing his daughter-in-law return safely, he was overjoyed. He first asked about Fu Ping's injury, and then said, "Yun'er, Linchu said that he treated you coldly when we got married, and wanted to make some compensation to you during the founding of the country. Father agreed."

Looking at Fu Ping, he smiled warmly, "It just so happens that your father and cousins ​​are still in Wengcheng, so you can watch the ceremony together. Your father has already sent people to prepare for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and the ceremony of enthronement. The auspicious date chosen by the ceremonial officer will be half a month later. You should prepare well these days, and it won't be too late to return to Liyang City after the ceremony of enthronement."

Fu Guiyun had already promised Lu Linchu about this matter, so he said, "Thank you, father."

Lu Linchu was satisfied with this and silently held her fingers together.

After glancing at Lu Lin, he smiled and said, "Old Fourth mentioned the idea of ​​establishing the capital earlier. Although Dongyi City is impregnable, it is a place that the military must fight for after all. And since we are at the front line, it is not good to let the civil and military officials take risks. It is better to temporarily establish Liyang City to contain the entire southern border."

His words were so convincing that neither Lu Linzhi nor Lu Chen could refute them.

"What the prince said is very true."

Lu Linzhi only glanced at him from the corner of his eye and said: "The southern border is related to the foundation of Daning. It is because I was so ignorant before."

Lu Chen had already seen that there was a rift between the two brothers. This was what he and the princess feared the most.

His eyes lingered between the two brothers, and he thought for a long time before responding, "In that case, I will follow Linchu's advice."

When the Crown Prince withdrew his troops from Dali and Tuoyue, he left trusted confidants in the two kingdoms to lead the garrisons. Lu Chen knew this clearly in his heart and knew that the Crown Prince was already on guard against Lin Zhi.

He couldn't let the prince kill Linzhi in the future, so he took the opportunity to say, "Linzhi, you have spared no effort in protecting the southern border over the years. This king is very pleased. After the founding of the country, the old lands of Darong, Dali and Tuoyue will still be your fiefdom."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately instructed Lu Bing: "Send someone to draft an imperial edict immediately, set up the Nanling Governor's Office in Dali, promote Zeng Ye to the position of Nanling Grand Governor, appoint him as the Protector of the Country Duke, lead the southern border's naval and land forces, transfer Lu Yan and Lu Hui to the north, and help the prince choose a date to attack Dayan."

"Yes," Lu Bing responded and left.

Lu Yan and Lu Hui were both Lu Linchu's confidants stationed in the fourth brother's fiefdom. His father's move of cutting off the source of the problem seemed to be a precaution against the fourth brother, but by having his uncle Zeng station troops in Prince Zhong's fiefdom, he was actually protecting the fourth brother.

He was very dissatisfied, but found it difficult to speak.

Fu Guiyun didn't know why the prince suddenly proposed to change the capital, but it was indeed a safe strategy to make Liyang the capital for now.

After all, the north is still in turmoil, and it is quite risky to establish the capital in Dongyi.

When Lu Linzhi mentioned this matter, she had no objection. On the one hand, she trusted Lu Linzhi, and on the other hand, he was the only one who could maintain the situation in the southern border.

He probably realized that the prince wanted to weaken Lu Linzhi's fiefdom, but he still agreed with his idea in his heart.

No matter how much you trust someone, it is better to keep the power firmly in your own hands.
