The lucky little prince's doting wife

Chapter 131 The Heart of a Politician
The Lin family and his son waited for a day and lost one killer. At least one of the Wei party members who was in charge of the Zhenfu Division did not move. Even when the Zhenfu Division began to mobilize personnel on a large scale, no one from the Wei party came out to say a word.

"Tomorrow's slave market is the key," Father Lin sighed softly while sitting in the study after nightfall.

At this moment, the eldest son, Lin, has not returned from Zhenfusi. The second son, Lin, is sitting in the study. Since the eldest brother is not here, he has to stay with his father.The third young master could not count on his Confucian teacher, and the fourth young master, Lin Deyi, had never been counted on.

There are several officials present here, all of whom are cadres of the Lin Party.The tea in front of them has been changed several times, but no one can say a definite word about what Wei Shengwen and his group will do next.

In the eyes of those in the Lin Party, the current silence from the Wei Party was the calm before the storm.

"Master," the voice of Manager Wang beside Father Lin came from outside the study.

Father Lin: "Come in."

Manager Wang entered the room and reported the news that Mr. Lin had sent back. Wen Dong passed away half an hour ago.

After waving his hand for Manager Wang to retreat, Father Lin sighed softly after a while.Father Lin didn't say anything about General Wen's death. The thing was done and the man died. If he said any words of exclamation, sympathy, or pity, besides disgusting the dead soul and making himself look hypocritical, what's the point?
"There are only four children left," someone whispered.

In fact, a hundred and ten people from the Zhou and Wen families were dead, so what did the lives of the four remaining children mean to others?

"I want to protect these four children," Father Lin said in a gentle voice, but the meaning of his words was unquestionable.

No one came forward to say that the lives of four children were not worth saving.This is not to say that everyone here is a gentleman and feels pity for these four children. People who have been in politics for a long time have cold hearts.Zhou Guangyi and Wen Dong died for the political interests of the Lin Party. In this matter, the Lin Party sacrificed the small to protect the big, using the lives of Zhou Guangyi and Wen Dong to maintain their control over the military and political affairs of Liaodong.Father Lin wanted to protect his four children to the death, and he had to deal with people in Wei's party, but the reason was that he wanted to give an explanation to people in Lin's party.

If you died for me, then I will take care of your family at all costs.If Father Lin doesn't do this, it will not only depress people's hearts, but when encountering this kind of situation again, who will step forward and take this life?Moreover, you are chasing potential allies. You can’t count on anything, so what are they doing with you?
Whether they can keep these four children in the face is another test of the ability of Father Lin and the Lin Party, or it is another proof.

"But we can't make arrangements now," Second Young Master Lin said.

If you don’t know what the other party is going to do, how can they make corresponding arrangements?
"If the other party is definitely going to make a fuss in the slave market," said He Qingyan, Lin's junior brother and the regular servant of Zuo Sanqi under his sect, "then why not sell those four children another day?"

Father Lin: "Wei Shengwen can also wait for another day."

Master He: "Then the only way to protect these four children is to prevent them from going to the slave market."

If they are not betrayed, then nothing will happen. The trouble will come back to them, and these four children will be safe.

Xiang Yun, a member of Zhongshushe, immediately shook his head and said: "This is not possible. We have managed to suppress the Liaodong matter. If Wei Shengwen seizes the opportunity and causes trouble on this matter, the two generals Zhou and Wen will be in vain." died."

After a few words, things were back to square one.

Second Young Master Lin was upset after hearing this, so what should he do?Wen Dong was already dead in Zhenfusi's dungeon, and they couldn't even come up with an answer on whether to protect his children.

"Maybe we are just disturbing ourselves," Father Lin said to comfort everyone present at this time: "Maybe the Grand Master is waiting for us somewhere else. After all, the youngest son is innocent."

The translation of Father Lin's words is that if Wei Sheng and he were still the same person, he would not kill the child.

However, I am afraid that Chief Wei will not be a good person!
"Mo Ting will go to the slave market tomorrow," Father Lin said again.

Several people present looked at each other. Are they really going to fight with Wei Shengwen?

"Then if Wei Yu comes there tomorrow," Master He said halfway. After shaking his head, Master He stopped talking.Mr. Lin and the elders of the Wei family are all here, so the slave market will be busy tomorrow.
The study became quiet. Everyone was worried, but they had to stay calm. They even forced a smile to pretend to be peaceful.

"Let's see tomorrow," Father Lin said, "I told Mo Ting that if we have to do so tomorrow, we will stop the trading in the slave market."

"Master Lin!"

There were shouts in the study, and no one agreed with what Father Lin did.You have finally escaped the dirty water thrown by the Wei Party through the Liaodong incident. Hundreds of lives have been lost. Do you want to jump into this mud hole again?
Father Lin waved his hands to everyone and said, "Don't worry, I said it was not a last resort. No matter what, I want to save the lives of the four children."

Master He and Father Lin are brothers in the same sect, so they have less scruples when talking, so Master He directly asked Father Lin: "What can we do to save the lives of these four children?"

Father Lin: "We can't let them fall into the hands of the Grand Master, nor can we let them fall into a dirty place like Fireworks and Willow Alley."

After thinking about it, Father Lin added: "A family with a reputation for abusing slaves cannot let those four children pass."

"Have you made arrangements to buy them tomorrow?" Lord He asked.

According to Father Lin, apart from their own people, they can't rest assured that the four children will go to anyone's home.

Father Lin: "It's been arranged. I just hope there won't be any accidents tomorrow."

The sound of the midnight watch passed through several courtyard walls and entered the study.

"Let's all go back," Father Lin said, "You can just wait for the news tomorrow. Don't make any moves."

Nothing can be discussed if we sit down again, and Father Lin has obviously made up his mind and won't listen to the advice. It's useless to talk anymore. What else can he do if he doesn't leave?Now no one is in the mood to talk about poetry and appreciate paintings.

After seeing Master He and others back, Second Young Master Lin glanced at his somewhat tired father and whispered, "Will eldest brother call for a halt to the slave market tomorrow?"

Father Lin: "This matter will be handled by the Capital Palace."

The capital government is in charge of all affairs in the capital and has the power to stop the slave trade.

Second Young Master: "Shen Qiao is actually willing?"

Shen Qiao, the governor of the capital, is a solitary minister, that is, a minister who does not join any political party, has no allies in the court, and only concentrates on doing things for the emperor.

Father Lin: "The Holy Spirit will issue the decree."

The second young master muttered: "Since the Holy Spirit wants to intervene, it's better to just absolve the four children of their sins."

Father Lin: "What did you say?"

The second young master shook his head, "It's nothing."

If the Holy One decreed that the four children of Zhou and Wen should be pardoned, would the next step be to pardon the sins of General Zhou and Wen?Don't underestimate the madness of the mad dogs of the Wei Party. If they were given the chance, they would even dare to curse Emperor Xuan Jing.After all, what the Wei party wants to do now is to have the third prince ascend the throne as an emperor as soon as possible. They have long wanted Emperor Xuan Jing to get out.
