However, after doing all this, Empress Ji Handan couldn't hold on any longer.

Not long after, the empress Ji Handan passed away, and the Daqian Empire was directly torn apart and plunged into more intense wars.

What's ridiculous is that the Wei State, which has been invaded by the tribes of the grassland every year and has been weakened by the great cadres, took this opportunity to live for more than [-] years before it perished.

However, he knew all this, so how should he explain it to Zhao Yuehan?

Such a big job is not only unsafe in the sky, even if you hide in the countryside, you may be affected by military disasters.

Lin Xuan smiled: "The King of Beijiang wants to rebel, but he will never rebel. He has the Northwest Frontier Army on his side, and the State of Wei to the north. If he wants to rebel, he must go south, and if he goes south, his headquarters will be empty. Revenge, or to regain lost ground, will take the opportunity to attack."

"In this way, the king of Beijiang will face the attack from both sides of the Wei State and the Dagan court, and he will definitely die."

"As for the State of Wei, they can take advantage of this time to make a move. They can completely copy the negotiation strategy between Dagan and Wei State not long ago, return some of the counties and counties of Dagan, regain or even occupy some of them, and benefit the most."

"As long as King Beijiang is a little smarter, he will be able to see this, so he will not rebel."

Zhao Yuehan nodded, the situation is indeed like this.

The king of Beijiang was forced to such an extent last time, and the king of Beijiang did not resist.

This is mainly due to the precedent of Wei Guo cutting off the head of a surrendered King of Jin and giving it to Dagan. The King of Beijiang would never surrender to Wei Guo unless he was forced to.

Lin Xuan went on to say: "As for the king of Shu, he eats and sleeps in Shuzhou every day, and eats and sleeps. Except for the Nanman who occasionally fights and makes trouble, he would never want to rebel against such things."

"Of course, this is mainly due to the dangerous geographical location of Shuzhou. No matter whether it is to send troops or return, it needs to pay a very high price. The kings of Shu did not want to toss."

"..."

I really don't know what the king of Shu would think when he heard such an evaluation.

The King of Shu is the sixth elder brother of the Empress Ji Handan. He met him a few times in the palace before. He was either reading a book quietly or sleeping. He often slept even in the school. He didn't seem to care about anything.

However, the king of Shu treated her little sister well. In the process of pacifying King Zhao and King Jin, and attacking Wei and Chu, a lot of food and grass were supplied by Shuzhou.

It can be said that without the support of the sixth brother, it would be difficult for her to settle down so quickly.

"With me in Shuzhou, your granary will always be there."

This is what was written on the bamboo slips sent to Ji Handan by the King of Shu later.

It is worth mentioning that because Shuzhou produces bamboo, the output of bamboo is very rich. After hearing that the papermaking technology obtained by the imperial court needs bamboo, he was the first to express his support, and he was willing to build more papermaking workshops in Shuzhou to provide the imperial court with paper.

Without any doubt, Zhao Yuehan directly sent a copy of the copied papermaking techniques to the King of Shu.

At present, it is said that the papermaking workshops have already started production, and it will not take long to support the entire imperial court with paper.

After talking about the starling King Beijiang and the sixth brother King Shu, it is time to talk about King Chen, King Sui, King Yue, King Xu, and King Zheng.

In order not to make Lin Xuan suspect, Zhao Yuehan looked a little uncertain, and simply asked: "Brother Lin, are you sure that it is King Chen, King Sui, King Yue, King Xu, and King Zheng who will rebel? I don't know Brother Lin What evidence can there be?"

Lin Xuan lowered his voice: "It's not certain, it's certain! As for the evidence, if someone can dig up the treasuries of these princes and kings and find out one or two dragon robes, it shouldn't be a problem."

As for the dragon robe, what Lin Xuan was sure of was that King Chen had one and King Zheng had one.

As for the other princes and kings, Lin Xuan didn't dare to be sure, so he adopted such a vague way of answering.

"So, Brother Zhao, even if we, the remnants of the nobles of the former dynasty, become the people of great power, the blood flowing will not change. As long as we stay in Tiandu for a day, in the next few years, the princes and kings will take advantage of the empress Ji Handan's critical illness. The rebellion, entering Tiandu, will definitely kill us first!"

"Therefore, it is still necessary to run!"

"We have to prepare with both hands."

Lin Xuan persuaded again, trying to bind Zhao Yuehan to his escape plan.

Zhao Yuehan nodded: "Brother Lin, I admit that what you said is reasonable, but all of this seems to be based on the premise that the empress may be seriously ill. According to what brother Lin said, the cause of the empress' serious illness is due to overwork and worry. Illness, and taking alchemy pills, am I right?"

Lin Xuan nodded, more and more sure that Zhao Yuehan knew the empress very well.

However, the reason why he explained it this way is more or less a reminder.

If the Empress changes these reasons, she might be able to change the future a little bit.

After all, the Empress Dowager Li Ningyan has not died yet, perhaps because his travel time has been partially changed, but this also proves that the future can be changed.

However, it would be too difficult for the empress to change!

Even if Zhao Yuehan is familiar with Empress Ji Handan.

This is what Lin Xuan is really worried about.

Zhao Yuehan put away the folding fan, and continued: "If the empress doesn't take the alchemist's pill, but she's too tired and worried, wouldn't the things Brother Lin said wouldn't happen?"

As expected of Zhao Yuehan, she can see through.

It would be great if Zhao Yuehan and the empress really knew each other and could remind them.

In any case, it is very good for Empress Ji Handan that he was able to lift the birth restriction of the remnants of the nobles of the previous dynasty so quickly.

What's more, according to the existing plan, there is no doubt that the healthier the Empress Ji Handan can live, the better.

Of course, the premise is that Zhao Yuehan and the empress know each other and can talk.

Zhao Yuehan continued: "Besides, Brother Lin, you just said that Sima Zhao was the hidden danger that caused the Empress to become ill from worry, and Sima Zhao wanted to kill Lin Xuan. Why didn't Brother Lin think of a way to get rid of Sima Zhao?"

ha?

Lin Xuan never thought that Zhao Yuehan would say that.

Who is he, but he is the Prime Minister of Honglu Temple, at most he has the title of Uncle Le Xian, how can he kill Taiwei Sima Zhao?

The magnitude gap between the two sides is too big!

This is a completely unequal contest, otherwise why would you say it here.

It's just assuming that Zhao Yuehan and the Empress knew each other, and trying to get Zhao Yuehan to pass it to the Empress through her channel, and trying to kill Taiwei Sima Zhao.

Who would have thought that Zhao Yuehan wanted him to take the initiative instead?

This idea is very dangerous!

Could it be that he was going to rush into the Taiwei's mansion with his sword in hand, and said in a sentence: "Sima Zhao, come here and lend me your head."

This appearance may be handsome, arrogant and impressive, but it will definitely be cool in the first place.

In addition, what should I do, find evidence that Sima Zhaoli has connected with foreign countries?

He is not a master of martial arts, it is very difficult to do it.

unless……

Wait, it's not a question of exceptions, it's just that the gap is too big and it's too difficult.

Lin Xuan said: "Brother Zhao, I'm the prime minister of Honglu Temple. Wouldn't it be fantastic to get rid of Sima Zhao, unless Sima Zhao took the initiative to stick his head over and let me chop with a sword, maybe it would be possible."

Zhao Yuehan nodded: "Brother Lin, what you said is reasonable. But in this case, if Brother Lin stays in the capital, he might be in danger if he is targeted by Sima Zhao. Do you want to apply to the higher authorities and find a way to transfer to a place other than Tiandu?" A job? By the way, planning a runaway plan?"

The old servant Li Mu looked at Zhao Yuehan with a strange expression.

I remember yesterday that a bamboo slip document from Xiangzhou was sent, saying that the policy of working for relief was not implemented well in some counties and counties, and even had problems in implementing it in some counties and counties.

Could it be that His Majesty wants Lin Xuan to go to these places?

Lin Xuan waved his hand: "No, I will only give Sima Zhao more opportunities and die sooner if I go to a place other than the capital now. Brother Zhao, what I just said, don't say it, so as not to lead to a murderous disaster , we still find a way to escape is the right way.”

Zhao Yuehan looked at Lin Xuan, a little dumbfounded, but didn't say anything else: "Okay, brother Lin, I'll think about it. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

The old servant Li Mu quickly picked up the food box, which contained fish for the old lady to eat.

Lin Xuan got up and saluted: "Okay, Brother Zhao, go slowly!"

There was a lot of doubt in Zhao Yuehan's eyes, obviously what he said just now was too shocking and it took a while to digest it.

However, from the look in Zhao Yuehan's eyes, Lin Xuan was sure that she had listened to it and believed it to a certain extent, and that was enough.

The only uncertain question is whether Zhao Yuehan really knows the Empress, and if they do, it will be easy.

Maybe it can prevent Empress Ji Handan from taking the elixir offered by the alchemist so foolishly, so that she can maintain a healthy body for a long time, so that even if she is tired and worried, she can persist for a longer time.

Besides, maybe Sima Zhao could be killed without him doing it!

……

Taining Palace.

The Empress Ji Handan arrived with the braised fish made by Lin Xuan, and the Empress Dowager Li Ningyan retreated to the left and right, leaving the mother and daughter in the house.

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan held a large bowl of white rice in front of her, picked up a piece of braised fish and took a bite, the frown on her face completely relaxed at this moment: "Sure enough, we still have to have braised fish made by Lin boy!"

Empress Ji Handan smiled: "The queen mother likes to eat, so I will go there a few more times for my daughter."

Li Ningyan smiled: "Daughter, there's no need to do this. If you go too many times, it will bring him danger instead."

There was no one else here, so Empress Dowager Li Ningyan would directly call Ji Handan's daughter.

If there were other people, no matter whether they were trustworthy or not, they would call him Emperor Ji Handan.

"Let's talk, this time you granted him Uncle Le Xianbo, and pardoned all the survivors of the former nobles in Yongle Lane for him, so you don't want to run away?"

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan picked up another piece of braised fish, ate it in her mouth, and skillfully separated the fishbone inside.

This……

Seeing the empress Ji Handan hesitated for a moment, the queen mother Li Ningyan put down her chopsticks: "Why, does he still want to run away?"

It may be that the braised fish is too delicious, so the queen mother continued to pick up the chopsticks and eat the fish.

"Could it be because of the last assassination that Lin Xiaozi felt that Zai Tian was not safe?"

Regarding this incident, both the queen mother and the empress were actually somewhat surprised.

Because no one thought that Lin Xuan was a master of swordsmanship.

According to the investigation of the people who arranged it, it was found that the four killers killed by Lin Xuan were also well-known figures among the killers, but it was such a master who was killed by Lin Xuan with a single sword.

It's just that there were extra scars on the corpse, probably because Lin Xuan was worried that someone would find out that his sword skills were superb, so he changed the sword and stabbed the corpse a few more times.

It's a pity that Lin Xuan is sometimes sloppy, not knowing that such a technique can often be seen through at a glance when it encounters a clever workmanship.

For this reason, they directly ordered the body to be cremated, as a secret for him.

To put it simply, Lin Xuan's swordsmanship is so superb, there is no need to worry about being targeted.

Empress Ji Handan replied: "Yes, he said Sima Zhao wanted to kill him!"

"Sima Zhao?"

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan was a little surprised. Kid Lin was playing a trick to kill someone with a borrowed knife?

"Boy Lin started to doubt your identity?"

"Probably not yet. Based on the loopholes her daughter intentionally left behind, at most Lin Xuan would think that Zhao Yuehan is her daughter's friend, but he can keep a secret for him, which is credible enough."

Regarding this matter, the Empress Dowager Li Ningyan and the Empress Ji Handan had already discussed it.

After all, the internal reform of the imperial court has been basically completed, and the system of the cabinet, Fengbi department, and military government has begun to be implemented. In addition, there are foreign strategies, the implementation of the imperial examination system, etc., and Lin Xuan has entered the Honglu Temple. Variations inside and outside.

Once or twice, it can be said to be a coincidence, it can be fooled, but the number of times is too many, it is definitely not a coincidence.

That's when you need a backup identity.

At that time, in order to gain more trust, Ji Handan can show his cards and say: "Brother Lin, to be honest, I know the Empress, and I am also her friend!"

When Lin Xuan doesn't want to run away, she can have a real showdown: "Lin Xuan, I am the brother Zhao you have been calling to run with!"

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan put down her chopsticks, and pondered: "Sima Zhao is not the real reason why Lin Xiaozi wants to run away. What else did he say?"

Empress Ji Handan frowned and said, "He said, my daughter won't live for ten years!"

……

Chapter 66 Asking Lin Xuan in case of indecision 5K

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan's expression froze: "What's the reason? Kid Lin probably won't be aimless."

Although I have only been to Lin Xuan's small courtyard a few times, what Lin Xuan said may be a bit unpleasant, and even made the listeners want to find someone to beat me up, but there was never a single lie.

However, even so, Empress Dowager Li Ningyan never thought that Lin Xuan would say that Empress Ji Handan would only have less than ten years of life in the future.

She stared into Ji Handan's eyes, and heard Ji Handan repeat Lin Xuan's reason.

After hearing these reasons, Empress Dowager Li Ningyan breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that while Lin Xiaozi was in Honglu Temple, he didn't know that the imperial court had completed the reform, reorganized the cabinet, served as the pen department, and destroyed the military mansion."

Empress Dowager Li Ningyan picked up the chopsticks again, seemingly relieved.
