The Son-in-law of the Lin Family in the Red Chamber

When the rebels arrived at the prince's residence, the prince was fortunately not in the prince's residence.

However, this does not mean that the prince is safe, because the road the prince took when he left the residence happened to be the only way for the rebels to reach the prince's residence.

When Dabo's rebels and the prince were about to meet, there was no guard beside the prince, only a young eunuch—the prince's confidant eunuch, whose surname was Li, and whose name was Li Cai.

Maybe it was God's favor for the prince. Just before the prince was about to be discovered by the rebels, the screams of eunuchs and court ladies came from the front, but it was the rebels who encountered several court ladies and eunuchs. Although the rebels waved their butcher knives, they quickly After cutting down these people, he was still a step too late, causing the eunuch and maid to scream.

The prince was very vigilant, because the emperor was recuperating in bed, the strings in the prince's mind tensed instantly. Although he didn't know what happened in front of him, but for his own safety, the prince took Li Cai and hid among the flowers beside him.

Due to time constraints, the rebel army hurriedly marched towards the prince's residence, taking care of the scenery on both sides flawlessly, and the prince was able to escape.

When the rebels passed by the rockery, the prince secretly poked his head out to take a look at the risk of being discovered. Then, the prince's heart sank, and he knew the seriousness of the matter.

In the palace, there appeared an elite army that was not from the Imperial Forest Army or the Long Jinwei... the prince knew very well what this meant.

As the owner of the prince's residence, the prince knew very well that the guarding force of his residence was definitely not a match for this group of well-trained rebels. In addition, the prince did not know how many rebels appeared in the palace.

For the prince, the best way for the current situation is to just sit and watch. However, the prince's wife, son, and the person he loves the most are all in the prince's residence.

In addition, the prince did not know whether the East Palace where Emperor Chengrui was located, and the Qianqing Palace where Emperor Taishang was located were attacked by rebels.

For a moment, the prince was very entangled in his heart, and the battle between heaven and man was going on in his mind...

Now, the prince is surrounded by only one eunuch, Li Cai, not even a guard. If the prince goes out, whether it is returning to the prince's residence, or going to the East Palace and Qianqing Palace, it is equivalent to "a sheep entering the tiger's mouth".

A sense of powerlessness surged in the prince's heart, he clenched his fists, and hit the rockery hard.

Li Cai, who had been standing quietly behind the crown prince, saw that the crown prince was injuring himself, with blood bleeding from his hands, hurriedly walked to the prince's side, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, you must put your body first, I remember you said , keep the green hills, and don’t worry about no firewood.”

This common saying is really nondescript in the current situation, but Li Cai's concern still made the prince feel better.

There was a wry smile on the corner of the prince's mouth, and he comforted himself: "Yes, you're right, I can't panic... If the green hills are left, I don't have to worry about no firewood... I am the prince, and I should put the overall situation first..."

Now, the prince's heart is suffering. Several people who are very important to the prince are now in the palace, and they may all die under the knife of the rebels, but the prince can't do anything.

The Taishanghuang is the prince's grandfather and even the prince's teacher. For more than ten years, the Taishanghuang has been teaching the prince how to govern the country, and the prince has a deep affection for the Taishanghuang.

The princess is the wife of the prince, virtuous and gentle. Although the prince doesn't love her, he regards her as a relative. The two of them have never blushed. The prince feels very guilty towards the princess.

The grandson is the prince's eldest son and the only son. Although the child is just one month old, the prince attaches great importance to this child, because this is his own flesh and blood, and he has become a father.

Lin Daiyu has nothing to do with the prince, but she is the prince's favorite person. The prince once swore in his heart that he was willing to sacrifice his life in exchange for sister Lin's life of prosperity and well-being.

……

Now, the prince knows that the people he cares about are in danger, but the prince can't do anything. The prince really wants to run home to protect her wife and children, as well as the person she loves the most.

However, the prince did not move, even though the feelings in his heart were like stormy waves, the prince still did not move a step.

The reason is very simple, he is the crown prince, the heir apparent of Ming Dynasty, he should put the world first, and the country and the country as the most important...

It's just that even the prince himself doesn't know whether this is his real thought, or an excuse he made for his "cowardice"...

Just when the prince was fighting between heaven and man, Li Cai tremblingly took out a handkerchief from his bosom, stepped forward to bandage the wound in the prince's hand, the prince's expression was in a daze, and he let Li Cai approach him...

Li Cai was just an ordinary eunuch. He was sent to be castrated by his family since he was a child, and then entered the palace. Li Cai was lucky and was assigned to the Qianqing Palace. Although he was just a handy eunuch, no one dared to bully him.

Later, because Li Cai was very clever, he won the favor of the young prince, and was transferred by the prince to serve him, and he has been on the rise ever since.

Li Cai's life as a eunuch for more than ten years has been smooth and smooth. He has encountered such a severe test there. Trembling, he dropped the handkerchief in his hand to the ground.

The crown prince didn't blame Li Cai, but Li Cai blamed himself very much and bent down to pick it up.

The prince only thought that Li Cai was frightened and didn't care, but he didn't expect...

Li Cai's hands stopped shaking suddenly, and then he pulled out a dagger from his boots and stabbed at the prince who was close at hand.

At this moment, there was no panic in Li Cai's eyes, only calmness and determination.

Seeing his former confidant stabbing him with a dagger, the prince was shocked, but his hands were empty, without a weapon.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in the prince's mind, and he shouted: "You are also a rebel!"

At this time, the prince was supposed to handle government affairs in his own palace. However, because Mrs. Zhao Guogong was talking to the princess in the apse, the prince was restless and had no intention of handling government affairs. His mind was full of Daiyu's beautiful shadow...

The prince knew that this relationship was fruitless, so he hid the secret very well, and only told the secret to his confidant eunuch, Li Cai.

Just now, Li Cai advised the prince that since he couldn't calm down, he might as well go out for a walk.

The prince thought it was a good idea, so he only took Li Cai and left the prince's residence, wanting to go out for a refreshment, and then met the rebels...

However, the prince was wrong about one thing, that is, Li Cai was not a member of Prince Zhongshun, and Prince Zhongshun did not have the ability to hide the truth from the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Chengrui, and put spies beside the prince.

Prince Zhongshun can't, but Jinyiwei can!

This is Li Cai from Jinyiwei, who is the commander of Jinyiwei and Yang Ji. Long before Li Cai entered the palace, he was already a member of Jinyiwei, but Yang Ji did not expect that Li Cai was so lucky that he won The prince's blue eyes.

Originally, Yang Ji originally wanted to train Li Cai to be a great eunuch, so that Li Cai could become Jin Yiwei's eyes in Qianqing Palace. Although Yang Ji was loyal to the Supreme Emperor, he kept his hand.

However, Yang Ji didn't expect that Li Cai was so lucky that he got the prince's favor, so Yang Ji went down the donkey and asked Li Cai to lurk beside the prince and make a secret move.

For more than ten years, Jin Yiwei never used Li Cai's dark move once, until the Supreme Emperor had a stroke, and Yang Ji made up his mind to cooperate with the Lin family.

It was Li Cai who revealed to Yang Ji that the prince loved Daiyu deeply.

Yang Ji is also an old vixen. Although he doesn't know the plan of the Lin family, he can figure out that the Lin family wants the prince to ascend the throne.

However, Yang Ji didn't want the prince to take over. The reason was simple and outrageous. That is, the prince admired Yangmou and looked down on Jinyiwei very much. He even revealed the idea of ​​completely abolishing Jinyiwei in the conversation with the Supreme Emperor.

Yang Ji has been a Jinyiwei for decades, and has a deep affection for the profession of Jinyiwei. Although he wants to cleanse his family, he doesn't want this profession to disappear in the long river of history.

For this "noble" reason, Yang Ji told the Lin family that the crown prince liked Daiyu.

Yang Ji originally had a backup, but he didn't expect that the Lin family excluded the prince from the plan just because the prince liked Daiyu, which made Yang Ji very puzzled.

However, although Yang Ji didn't understand, he still became an ally with the Lin family, because they now have a common goal.

If the crown prince found out, the reason why he was abandoned by the Lin family and excluded from the "heir to the throne" was simply because he was naive in the past, his eyes could not be rubbed with sand, and his eyes were either black or white. I don't know how he would feel...

In addition, the ironic fact is that the now mature prince no longer hates Jin Yiwei as a killer. The prince even imagined in his heart: "It would be great if Jin Yiwei listened to my command."

However, the prince did not reveal this idea, because the prince wanted to confuse some enemies with the "naivety" he showed.

Therefore, Yang Ji's desire to kill the prince, and this carefully arranged assassination, all stemmed from an oolong...

If the prince had retracted this sentence early, maybe Yang Ji would not have been hostile to the prince in his heart. Without the help of Yang Ji and Jin Yiwei, the Lin family's plan might not have succeeded.

Well, maybe there would be no such coup...

Of course, the crown prince doesn't know these things, otherwise, the crown prince would probably slap himself severely!

Alas, life is already so difficult, some things should not be exposed...

The author has something to say:

Maybe I was too willful and wanted to write an oolong in this carefully arranged and interlocking coup.

However, after writing this chapter, I suddenly felt that what I wrote was too nonsense, but I didn't want to change it. I hope the girls can forgive me.
