Chapter 571 Lin Yun protects his shortcomings

Lin Yun forced out a smile, stood up and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Don't take it to heart! As long as I'm here, Master, the sky won't fall! Give me that letter!"

He also didn't expect that Fulin'an would arrange for his son to assassinate Zheng Lili.

But even if he knew in advance, it would be impossible for Zheng Li to show mercy. If Zheng Li died, Lin Yun's situation would be even worse.

Zheng Li was obviously panicked. He lowered his head and took out the secret letter in his arms.

Lin Yun said in a deep voice: "Li Yi, thank you for your hard work this time! Go down and rest!"

Zheng Li nodded, cupped his fists and saluted Lin Yun and the Eight Wise Kings, and then left uneasily.

Without the outsiders, both people in the room fell into silence.

At this time, the Eight Wise Kings looked up at him and said, "Lin Zhongtang, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Lin Yun said numbly: "What should I do? Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor. If Fulin'an dares to arrange for his son to assassinate one of my own confidants, he must be prepared to be killed!"

Seeing that his attitude was so tough, the Eighth Sage King said in a deep voice: "Lin Zhongtang, you have to think carefully! Fu Tianyong is Fulin'an's favorite son! In order to treat this boy, he alarmed countless pharmacists and doctors in the country. ! There is no one in the civil and military circles who does not know how protective he is! Once Fulin'an knows that his son was killed by one of your henchmen, this matter will probably become a big deal!"

Lin Yun sneered: "It's better for his son to die than for him to die himself, right? If you ask me, it's already an advantage for him!"

"Hey, it's useless for you to say this now! This matter must have an outcome!"

Lin Yun looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Then the prince said, what should I do to satisfy him Fulin'an!"

The Eight Sages King said: "I know that Lin Zhongtang attaches great importance to Zheng Lili, but he killed him, so Lin Zhongtang should push him out as a scapegoat! At least he can continue to maintain his current state. No matter how much he hates Fulin'an, he You won’t overturn the table!”

"boom!"

Lin Yun slapped his hand on the table, startling the Eight Wise Kings.

This was the first time he was so rude in front of the Eight Wise Kings.

Even the last time they had a violent quarrel in Yucheng, it didn't reach this level.

Lin Yun continued: "Impossible! If he, Fulin'an, protects his shortcomings, won't I, Lin Yun, protect my shortcomings? If word spreads, where will I, Lin Yun, put my face? Who dares to sacrifice his life for me?"

The Eight Wise Kings said bitterly: "If you don't do this, Fulin'an will definitely retaliate against you crazily!"

"Then come! Anyway, we have been fighting for a long time! If I, Lin Yun, were afraid of trouble, I would not come to the capital to be an official!"

The Eighth Prince still wanted to persuade, but Lin Yun raised his hand and said: "Okay! Thank you to the Eighth Prince for your kindness, but I also have principles! I was the one who ordered Zheng Li to find this letter before, and I also said that when I met him on the way If you encounter any resistance, you will be killed without mercy! So, if Fulinan really wants to take revenge, just come! I, Lin Yun, will hang my eyes on the wall and wait for him to come!"

With that said, he took out the letter, read the contents, and then placed it lightly in front of the Eight Wise Kings.

"Eighth Prince, take a good look at him! He is a person who wants to usurp the throne, why should I bow my head?"

The Eighth Sage King looked livid after reading the letter. He knew best how chaotic and dangerous the court was when the emperor first ascended the throne.

Immediately, he put the letter into his sleeve and said in a deep voice: "Since Lin Zhongtang has made up his mind, I won't say more! I'll take my leave now!"

Originally, he wanted to enter the palace with Lin Yun to meet the saint.

But there is no need for this now. Fu Tianyong's death will definitely anger Fulin'an completely, and the Eight Wise Kings must discuss countermeasures with the emperor.

At least we need to stabilize both sides and not fight in the capital. Lin Yun watched him leave, immediately got up and went to a side room in the backyard.

Zheng Li and Ye Wanqing had been waiting for a long time, and the ten surviving elite cavalry were still standing around them.

They all looked cautious, because it was their first time in Beijing and they came to seek refuge with Lin Yun, so they felt a little nervous.

Especially when they learned that the man in black who had exchanged fire with them a few days ago was Lin Yun's political enemy, they felt even more unsure.

When everyone saw Lin Yun approaching, they quickly bowed and knelt down: "I've seen Master Zhongtang!"

Lin Yun nodded with a smile and asked: "It's beneficial, these people are..."

Zheng Li explained: "They are Master Ma's gift to the Fourteenth Master! All of them are strong, good at riding and shooting! If it were not for the escort of these brothers, I may not be able to come back this time!"

Lin Yun suddenly realized it and praised: "What a good Ma Ji! It seems that I have underestimated his ability!"

Zheng Li smiled bitterly and said: "Master Ma wanted to take refuge with the Fourteenth Master. He stayed in Haocheng for one night under his humble position and heard him talk about it many times..."

Lin Yun knew Ma Ji's thoughts without asking. He raised his hand and interrupted: "Okay, let's not mention this in advance! Then why did Lin Jinbiao take him back to the capital?"

"Hey, Beizhi had no intention of bringing him back! It's just that he was accidentally injured by the killers led by Fu Tianyong. Beizhi couldn't ignore death, so he brought him back. Please forgive me, Master Fourteenth!"

As soon as these words came out, the ten elite cavalrymen all raised their heads and looked at Lin Yun.

If Lin Yun blamed him for this, then they should be careful.

But Lin Yun was so sophisticated and said with a smile: "What do I blame you for? If you don't save me, I will punish you! By the way, how is Master Lin's situation now?"

At this time, Ye Wanqing said: "Ms. sir, I have just asked the imperial doctor in my house to help with diagnosis and treatment. Lin Jinbiao's life is not worried. It's just that the journey was bumpy and he lost too much blood, so he fell into a coma! He will be able to recover after a while. Get well!"

Lin Yun nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Second Madam!"

"Tch! What's the trouble for me! My husband, you'd better think about our next situation! If it's helpful to kill Fu Tianyong, Fulin'an will definitely take advantage of it!"

Lin Yun looked up at Zheng Li and said, "Let's go to the study!"

Afterwards, he left with his hands behind his back.

Zheng Li was a little nervous and glanced at Ye Wanqing subconsciously.

Ye Wanqing said with a smile: "Commander Zheng, don't be nervous, even if you break the rules, my husband will settle everything for you! Go!"

Zheng Li cupped his fists and saluted, then chased after him.

When he walked into the study, he saw Lin Yun with his back turned to the words, staring at Daduan Shenchao's map, fascinated.

Zheng Li could no longer hold back, and knelt on the ground with a bang: "Fourteenth Master, that Fu Tianyong was shot and killed by his humble position, and he is willing to bear all the consequences!"

Lin Yun then turned back to look at him and said in a cold tone: "You bear it? Can you afford it?"

At this moment, Zheng Lili was a little confused about Lin Yun's true intention. He lowered his head and said, "I can't afford it! Since Fu Tianyong is the second son of Fu Zhongtang, his life must be much more valuable than a humble position! But as long as he doesn't destroy The Fourteenth Master’s plan, I would rather sacrifice my life for my life!”
