Why are you so anxious?

Zhuang Lin was silent for a moment, then said with a smile: "Probably because I think Shaoyou is elegant and elegant, with the qualities of a fairy. So the repulsion in my heart has decreased a little?"

"But looking at His Majesty's attitude today, it doesn't seem to be the slightest bit of reluctance. If I talk about it seriously, I think the concubine Chen's thoughts are more natural and reasonable." Jun Shaoyou smiled casually, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "I have very little acquaintance with the lord, so naturally I can't talk about heart-to-heart. But in the current situation, you and I are grasshoppers on the same rope. It is understandable that the lord has something to hide. But it is best to pick some important ones." Tell me, lest I be negligent for a while, and ruin the prince's plan."

Zhuang Lin was silent for a while, and then sighed, and said: "In the past few years, this king has made many achievements in the southern and northern wars. One is to help His Majesty calm down the world, and the other is to gain more and more prestige in the army. I He is the first prince in this dynasty to be crowned king with military exploits, and he is also supported by his grandfather who is the great general of the town. With one word, he can mobilize millions of troops in the army."

Jun Shaoyou sat up slightly, feeling dumbfounded in his heart, only feeling that he understood what Emperor Yongqian was thinking.

Sure enough, Zhuang Lin let out a long sigh, and said, "Last year to pacify the chaos in the northwest border, the emperor Zhao Jian once privately advised His Majesty, saying that this king has great achievements and is a prince, and he has no seal. Only by making me the crown prince can I make up for this effort."

Jun Shaoyou gasped. The point of Zhao Jian's words was not "canonize the prince", but on the four characters "canonize nothing to seal".Zhuang Lin is only 20 years old this year, and he has already reached the point where his achievements are so high that he can't be sealed.What if Zhuang Lin continues to make contributions in the next few years?At this time, he was named the prince, how should he be rewarded in the future?

Zhuang Lin said again: "Since Zhao Jian's private remonstrance, there have been a group of storytellers in teahouses and restaurants in Beijing. They compiled all the battles that the king has fought since he joined the army at the age of 12 and spread them in the market. But three For five days, gossip spread all over the capital, and the Sacred Heart was silent."

When Jun Shaoyou heard the words, he smiled and remained silent.

He made great achievements in battle, and his achievements were so high that the army and the people in the army only knew King Yong'an but not the emperor.Even if Emperor Yongqian reused and appreciated Zhuang Lin, the heart of the emperor is arbitrary, and the prestige of the emperor is the only one in the universe.How can I bear the light of firefly candles overwhelming Haoyue.The father of the king, the father of the king, the king is the father, the king is always before the father, even the son of a direct relative, when it comes to the struggle for imperial power, he will instantly become a political enemy until the death.Throughout the ages, it has been said that the Tian family has no family ties, and this is the reason.

Jun Shaoyou blinked suspiciously.This estrangement plan was originally dedicated to Zhuang Zhou by Jun Shaoyou of the previous generation after he studied the character of Emperor Yongqian with great concentration. After careful planning, Zhuang Lin, who had returned from a big victory, really made Zhuang Lin feel ashamed. .Not only did it prevent him from being crowned prince, but it also planted a seed of estrangement and suspicion in Emperor Yongqian's heart.With this, he became one of Zhuang Zhou's most valued advisers.

Unexpectedly, with the changes in the world, he has only been reborn for a few months now, and someone else has come up with this strategy of taking the bottom out.I don't know who took the lead in this life, and he proposed this plan first.

Zhuang Lin smiled and said: "Shaoyou is meticulous in thinking and does not stick to one pattern. How can ordinary counselors have such insights. Only this king picks up people's teeth and wisdom, playing mysteries and pushing the boat along the way. I hope Shaoyou doesn't care about the omissions."

Jun Shaoyou was extremely surprised, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You made it yourself, why?"

Zhuang Lin said with a smile: "Through a pitfall, you will gain wisdom. Since some conflicts are inevitable, it is better to break through them at the earliest time. In this way, the initiative is in my hands, and it will be easier to deal with it in the future. What's more -"

When Zhuang Lin said this, he deliberately lowered his voice, swam up to Jun Shaoyou slightly, bared his white teeth and smiled flatteringly: "If I didn't have this plan, how could I have married Shaoyou as my concubine so smoothly. Counting birds with one stone, this king is very satisfied."

Jun Shaoyou rolled his eyes, feeling that Zhuang Lin's words still had something to say.Then he raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then the matter of Zhao Jian's secret report to His Majesty was also instigated by the prince?"

Seeing that Jun Shaoyou was indifferent to his confession, Zhuang Lin twitched his lips a little bored, and said indifferently: "It's not an instigation. It's just that each has what it needs, and it's just an exchange."

Zhao Jian was a man of extraordinary talent and thoughtfulness, full of knowledge and experience, he was the emperor's teacher of the three dynasties, and he was born in the Zhao family of Boling, and he always regarded himself as a noble family.The most important thing is that this person will still be the father-in-law of the second prince Zhuang Zhou in the future. What motivation can he have to cooperate with Zhuang Lin?Or to put it another way, what did Zhuang Lin catch Zhao Jian, so that Zhao Jian had to cooperate with him?

Jun Shaoyou groaned to himself.Seeing this, Zhuang Lin waved his hand, and said straight to the point: "The Zhao family in Boling has always had few descendants, and most of them have been passed down in one line for several generations. In Zhao Jian's generation, it is even more desolate. Only the first wife gave birth to a daughter. As a man to educate, talk to comfort the heart of looking forward to a child."

Jun Shaoyou listened quietly for a while.He suddenly remembered an anecdote he had heard in his previous life.It is said that the emperor Zhao Jian, who was nearly sixty years old, accompanied the prime minister Xiao Qingjue to Pingkang Fang to recruit a prostitute, but after the spring breeze, the prostitute was shot.After conceiving in October and successfully giving birth to a baby boy, Zhao Jian was ecstatic, and resolutely ransomed for the prostitute regardless of the family rules and personal face.And the baby was adopted under the name of his first wife. A mere child of humble origin unexpectedly became the sole descendant of the Zhao family in Boling overnight. All lost here.

Thinking of this, Jun Shaoyou asked tentatively, "Did you find that prostitute?"

Although Jun Shaoyou didn't speak clearly, Zhuang Lin understood immediately.Immediately, he smiled and said: "Shaoyou is really thoughtful and thoughtful, and he can see through it at a single point."

Jun Shaoyou blinked, and immediately asked gossipingly, "The child that that prostitute is carrying really belongs to Emperor Master Zhao Jian?"

"It should be no problem. Because after Zhao Jian went to Pingkangfang, I directly ransomed for that prostitute."

"That's not necessarily true." Jun Shaoyou said disapprovingly, "Perhaps the child was conceived before that, and I don't know."

Zhuang Lin: "..."

Understanding the trickery between Zhuang Lin and Zhao Jian, Jun Shaoyou continued rubbing his chin and muttering silently.

Zhao Jian was ordered by Zhuang Lin to secretly admonish Emperor Yongqian. This move was undoubtedly a drastic move, piercing the emperor's heart with the most fundamental and irreconcilable contradictions.Although it was a risky military operation, it successfully aroused Emperor Yongqian's suspicion of Zhuang Lin, but it also left an impression in Emperor Yonggan's heart that "the second prince secretly slandered and framed his brothers, so he cannot be trusted".So retreating as advancing, although it seems that Zhuang Lin has suffered a great loss at the moment, in the long run, it will gradually wipe out Zhuang Zhou's chance to get close to His Majesty.

The most successful and insidious part of this trick is that Zhuang Lin directed and acted out a snipe and clam fight in front of Emperor Yongqian, and the fisherman benefited.Those who watch the play may not be clear, and the performers may not understand everything.

He first asked Zhao Jian, who seemed to be a die-hard supporter of the second prince Zhuang Zhou's line, to make a secret remonstrance, and after the secret remonstrance, he urged Zhao Jian to immediately come up with "Beijing Storytelling". probability.And the first time Emperor Yongqian suspected him, he asked for a decree to marry a male concubine, acting upright and innocent.After a moment of doubt, Emperor Yongqian believed even more in the magnanimity of the elder son and the temperament of the younger son.Although he has great military exploits and is suspected of arrogance, he did not turn his military exploits into more political capital to seek interests for himself. Instead, he wanted to use these military exploits to do some absurd things.Although he showed his sincerity, it also showed that Zhuang Lin was not a mature politician.Let Emperor Yonggan feel more at ease.

Of course, he also succeeded in putting eye drops on Zhuang Zhou who really didn't know anything at the moment and was really innocent.

After all, no one likes someone who is too deep in the city and would frame even his closest relatives for the sake of benefit.Although Zhuang Lin's threat is great, all the uncertain factors are on the bright side.However, for a fierce general, being able to play on the battlefield may not necessarily be able to play in the temple.Emperor Yongqian had a scheming mind and had been ups and downs for many years, how could he be seriously afraid of a young man with a straightforward personality but some meritorious deeds.Especially this young man or his own son?

At most, he was a little more afraid of Zhuang Lin, and reminded himself to pay attention to the scale of Zhuang Lin's experience.It is necessary to let the cubs who have not grown up fight alone, but also not to make the tiger a threat.At least, when he is a fierce tiger, he must not let the little tiger grow up to a situation that threatens his status.

Even if the conspiracy was revealed in the end, Zhuang Lin only had to shirk that it was a bad strategy to marry a male concubine.Even if Emperor Yongqian was angry, he probably smiled even more.He must be more at ease with Zhuang Lin, a son who doesn't even care about the country for the sake of beauty.

But it was different for Zhuang Zhou.

First of all, Zhuang Zhou was originally the result of a compromise between Emperor Yongqian and the aristocratic family, representing the influence and threat of the aristocratic family on the imperial power.Secondly, since Zhuang Zhou was able to conspire to frame Zhuang Lin at this time, there is no guarantee that he will not do more dangerous things for the throne in the future.Even if the conspiracy is revealed in the future, as long as Zhuang Zhou doesn't make a clean break with the emperor Zhao Jian, it will be difficult to get rid of the suspicion of knowingly pushing the boat.

Any forbearance and clever calculations are the best before they are paid to the surface, but once the too dark scheming is revealed to others, it is the most dreadful existence.

Presumably Emperor Yongqian was much more dissatisfied with Zhuang Zhou than Zhuang Lin at this moment.That's why Emperor Yongqian continued to trust and indulge Zhuang Lin after he hired a male concubine, but he was even more calm about Zhuang Zhou, who was suspected of being behind the scenes.

While Jun Shao Youruo was pondering, his slender fingers subconsciously tapped and placed on the edge of the barrel, making a slight noise.Half a day later, Jun Shaoyou suddenly asked: "I remember that the second prince is here this year. Does your majesty intend to send the second prince to the household department for training?"

Zhuang Lin smiled and said, "Is that so, I've never heard of it."

Jun Shaoyou confirmed the thoughts in his heart and chuckled unconsciously.

Even if his meritorious deeds are outstanding, if his personal morality is deficient and his heirs are weak, he will still be criticized by the officials of etiquette and law.If Zhuang Lin wants to covet the throne, he must first solve the problem of not having an heir before he can plan for the next step.But now that Zhuang Lin has cut off the way out and married a male concubine, and he insists on refusing to take a concubine, then his position is firm and clear.But Zhuang Zhou is different, unless he can decisively dissolve his marriage with Zhao Mingxuan, the eldest daughter of the emperor's teacher, maybe it can reduce the suspicion in His Majesty's heart by two points.Don't say that Zhuang Zhou doesn't know anything at the moment, even if he knows, can he be willing to give up the help of the Zhao family in Boling?

Jun Shaoyou just felt stunned, no wonder Zhuang Lin had repeatedly emphasized "a couple for a lifetime" before, and it turned out that it was really out of sincerity, and it really was a strategy to kill birds with one stone.At least for a few short years, Zhuang Lin did not lie.

Jun Shaoyou thought he was thinking clearly, so he smiled and said: "It turns out that I was used as a cover to sing a big show."

Zhuang Lin smiled, and said to Jun Shaoyou: "I know you don't believe me, so I must find a reason to deceive others. It's just that I, Zhuang Lin, if I don't mean anything to you, I don't have to take risks to recruit this strategy .If you don't believe it, just keep watching. Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and he can see people's hearts over time."

Jun Shaoyou followed with a chuckle, and then said, "From tomorrow onwards, I will also practice martial arts diligently."

He has always been brooding about Zhuang Lin's perfect figure.

Zhuang Lin was taken aback for a moment, fixedly glanced at Jun Shaoyou, and chuckled softly.
