At noon, a message came from the outer court, and Lin Ruhai left in a hurry.No need to ask, Lin Yan also knew that it must be Situ Ling's edict.However, what he didn't expect was that on the second day, Situ Ling actually went to the door of Lin's house, and the reason was to visit Lin Yan who was recovering from his injuries.

At that time, Lin Yan asked someone to lift the rattan chair and place it under the grape arbor, and spread a blanket on it to lie on it.Next to it is a four-corner round table with various fruits and melons, and there are servants who are responsible for peeling and feeding.It's simply corrupt.

Even Situ Ling, who was born in the royal family, was stunned for a while when he saw it, his eyes wandered around the delicious food on the table and the beauty in front of him, "You really enjoy it. The golden jade case, the gentle township, this king will walk with you for ten years." In the future, why didn't I see that you still have such a habit, didn't it just provoke Mr. Lin to use the family law? Are you not afraid of doing it again?"

Lin Yan was inconvenient to salute because of his injuries at the moment, so he pleaded guilty first, and then said: "My lord doesn't know anything now. My father is like that. When he hit me, it didn't matter how serious he was. It hurts me. He is trying to coax me right now! If I don’t take advantage of this moment to be presumptuous, what time are I waiting for!”

Situ Ling was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but think of himself.Born in the royal family, you are the king first, then the father.Over the years, the emperor has several sons, who was beaten and who was coaxed?

He was a little envious, if he could get a trace of ordinary father-son affection, it wouldn't matter if he was beaten up?

But the emperor didn't, even if they did something wrong, he never beat them, just scolded them.Sometimes even without saying a word, without even reprimanding, suddenly the attitude becomes cold.Let them not know why, all kinds of speculation.

Then there is this seizing the throne.If it weren't for the emperor's acquiescence, how could their brothers make it into today's situation?

He pushed them to fight openly and secretly, hoping to see what they were like and who was most in line with him.But he himself walked up this road, didn't he know that in this way, they could only be in a situation of endless death?

Has he ever thought about the fate of the loser?

Can't we choose a crown prince and cultivate him well?Breaking other people's wings, but also breaking other people's minds?

He is afraid that the prince will be too powerful in the future and threaten himself?For example, Prince Yizhong during the Xiandi period.

Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Situ Ling's mouth, but it disappeared in an instant.Because he understood that even though the emperor pushed him, this path was chosen by himself, and it was what he wanted.From this point of view, he should thank the emperor for this opportunity.

Lin Yan looked around, waved away the servants, with a solemn expression, "Your Highness shouldn't have come."

Situ Ling naturally knew what he was talking about. At such a time, it was not appropriate for the emperor to feel that he was getting too close to the Lin family.

"Yesterday, I met Master Lin."

This is nothing unusual, Lin Yan waits for the next article.

"I'm coming, it's Mr. Lin's intention!"

Lin Yan opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a while.

Situ Ling stood up, "Everyone knows the position of the Lin family in the south of the Yangtze River. If we can get the full help of the Lin family, we will get twice the result with half the effort. That's why the elder brother, the second brother and the fifth younger brother will make frequent moves to form an alliance with the Lin family. Only I have never made a move. In the past, I could He said it was because I was in the capital, and there were no family relatives or direct officials in the south of the Yangtze River, so it was difficult to get in touch with the Lin family.

But now?I am already in the south of the Yangtze River, how can I let such a good help from the Lin family do nothing?If this is the case, what will the father think?Then contact you to find out about the performance of the old nine after entering Beijing.Would father think that I had a covenant earlier than the Lin family, so I tacitly kept the surface unfamiliar to avoid his eyes and ears?

The situation in the south of the Yangtze River is not impossible for me.But the emperor chose me, maybe he had this in mind. "

Lin Yan shuddered, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.It turned out that the emperor's temptation was to test this.Instead, he thought the opposite.

Situ Ling said again: "The more I work hard, the more I want to bring the Lin family under my command, the more beneficial it is to me and the Lin family. The actions of the eldest brother, the second brother and the fifth younger brother are the first. If I don't act, the inaction itself will be a failure." The problem is that it is eye-catching to the emperor. And I am not stupid, and it is not that I am not interested in the throne.

Therefore, regardless of whether I have this tacit understanding because I formed an alliance with the Lin family earlier, it will make my father think about it.The emperor would not want to see something out of his control appear. "

Lin Yan frowned, Situ Ling didn't make it clear in his words, but he knew that a small part of what he said was Situ Ling's own thoughts, and the other half was probably reminded by Lin Ruhai.

No wonder Lin Ruhai said that he knew better than himself how to grasp the emperor's attitude.

that's the truth.

Lin Yan's palms oozed layers of sweat.Fortunately, fortunately!

********

Royal Palace.

A secret report was submitted to the imperial court.

The emperor looked at the first one first, and when he learned that Lin Yan had been beaten, he chuckled, "My junior brother, I still know a little bit. He wrote to me to pray for his son's safety, and his words were sincere, just because he wanted to Let him stay away from the turmoil. I didn't expect that my son would push himself into the whirlpool with all his efforts. With such a temper like the sea, how could he not be angry, and it would be fine if he didn't beat him to death."

Dai Quan lowered his head and responded in a low voice without saying a word.The emperor trusted him and did not shy away from it, but his eyeballs could not read the secret report.

Then came the second one.The major case in the south of the Yangtze River was handled by Prince Kang, and Lin Ruhai assisted.In the area of ​​Gusu and Jinling in Yangzhou, most of the officials were sacked.Prefect Yang, Ge Hongchou and a dozen officials from the Zhen family lineage took him into custody. King Kang advocated sending him back to Beijing, but Lin Ruhai stopped him for various reasons and executed him on the spot.What a ruthless method.

The emperor slid his fingers over the names of those dead officials one by one, his eyes flashed, and he shook his head, "If there are no heirs in the sea, Lin Yan is regarded as the lifeline. How dangerous Lin Yan was back then, which one of these people didn't intervene How can there be no hatred in Ruhai's heart. Forget it, they are just a group of beetles, and it's okay to just treat Ruhai's anger. It's just..."

The emperor paused, and frowned slightly. Situ Ling's persuasion was fruitless, but he went with the flow. I'm afraid he was thinking of currying favor with Lin Ruhai, right?

The emperor picked up the last piece of paper, and mentioned that Situ Ling had sent a lot of things to the Lin family because of Lin Yan's injury, and even visited twice in person.It's a pity that Lin Ruhai is not in the mansion and has never met.

The emperor frowned and smiled.His fingers tapped on the table, as if he was thinking about something.

A small yellow door came in, "Your Majesty, Princess Mingyu has fallen into the water!"

********

Whoa!

The teacup in Jia Mu's hand fell to the ground, and her body began to shake, "You...what did you say?"

Mrs. Wang knelt down, crying tears streaming down her face, "Old lady, save sister Yuan, save her!"

Mother Jia gritted her teeth, "Princess Mingyu has won Princess Qinghui's eyes, and now she is in full bloom. Sister Yuan, what are you going to do to provoke her!"

"Sister Yuan is innocent. She was set up by Concubine Zhen. But now all the evidence found is that Sister Yuan did it. Sister Yuan just acted as a middleman for Concubine Zhen and found an excuse to make an appointment. Princess Mingyu is going to the lotus pond!"

Mother Jia glanced sharply at her, "How could Sister Yuan be a middleman for Concubine Zhen?"

Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, but now the situation is beyond her ability to solve, she can only tell the whole story.After hearing this, Mother Jia threw another teacup with a splash, pointed at Mrs. Wang, and trembled with anger.

"You...you stupid woman! Sister Yuan is ruined in your hands! Why don't you think about it, Sister Yuan is a member of the Queen's Palace, if the queen decides to let Sister Yuan serve the emperor, that's all. Zhen The noble concubine made a move. To the queen, sister Yuan was a betrayal to her. The harem phoenix seal was in the hands of the queen. Even if she succeeded, what good could sister Yuan do? How could the queen let her go?

Besides, Concubine Zhen, the enmity between the Su family and the Zhen family!How could Concubine Zhen propose to see Su Jin, settle the suspicion with her, and apologize to her on behalf of the Zhen family?If this is the case, this is not something that cannot be known to others, and if you want to wait for the Zhen family to ease the relationship with Su Jin, you can put it on the bright side.Why do you need to do these little tricks!

Sister Yuan is not so stupid, just believe it!Say, but you blur the point in the middle of the message? "

Mrs. Wang shook her figure, her complexion was pale, she sat on the ground slumped, she was the one who killed Sister Yuan!

There is no need to ask about this situation. Mother Jia already knows the answer.She hammered the cane loudly.

"roll!"

The old lady closed her eyes, finally managed to get over the breath, thinking secretly in her heart, let's see.No matter what, Sister Yuan was also brought up by her, and the Jia family must not be charged with such a crime of murdering the princess.

If... If there is no turning point in the palace, she can only use her trump card.

I hope that the emperor can forgive sister Yuan for the sake of the person they sacrificed. It would be even better if she could keep sister Yuan by his side because of this.
