Chapter 608 A good son is like a father

The Eight Sage King knew Lin Yun very well, so he deliberately showed weakness just now and let Fu Tianchen take the blame.

But with Lin Yun's character, how could he be manipulated by him?

In the end, it was the Fifth Prince who bore the consequences.

In this way, even if Lin Yun stabs the emperor, it has nothing to do with his Eight Wise Kings.

When the time comes, the fifth prince will have no choice but to eat coptis. He cannot really be sold, otherwise the impact will be even greater.

If he could take this opportunity to deal with the Fifth Prince, it would do him more good than harm.

Lin Yun walked out of the military aircraft with his fists clenched and his face ashen.

The Eight Wise King had just admitted everything, but he still had to help him cover it up.

But there was nothing he could do. The Eight Wise Kings were difficult to deal with. Even if he brought him out and reported it to the emperor, the emperor could not take action because of a second-grade official for the sake of the overall situation.

After all, Fulin'an is a lesson learned from the past.

Moreover, the Eight Sages invited Ye Wanqing to the palace last night, which was the biggest warning to Lin Yun.

He could ignore all threats except his own woman, which showed how powerful the Eight Wise Kings were. He choked Lin Yun's life with one move.

On the contrary, it was the Fifth Prince who was hated by Lin Yun and the Eight Wise Kings at the same time, so he had to take the blame.

Soon, Lin Yun arrived outside the imperial study, and the eunuch in charge, Cao Shaoqing, greeted him enthusiastically.

It is said that eating people is soft-spoken and short-handed. He was forced to accept Lin Yun's 10,000 taels of silver last time, so he naturally wanted to please him.

"Hey, why is Lin Zhongtang here?"

Lin Yunhan said with a smile: "Eunuch Cao, is the emperor inside? Could you please inform me that I have something to report!"

Cao Shaoqing grabbed Lin Yun's arm, came to a corner, and whispered: "Lin Zhongtang, you better not disturb the emperor today!"

As he spoke, he looked back at the window of the imperial study room.

Lin Yun frowned and said, "Why? The Emperor is not feeling well?"

"No! It's a few princes who are listening to His Majesty's instructions!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up. He had never met any prince since he came to Beijing as an official.

"The prince is also in there?"

Cao Shaoqing nodded: "That's right! So Lin Zhongtang should come back to see the emperor another day!"

Lin Yun sneered inwardly, how could he miss such a good opportunity? Without saying a word, he lifted up the hem of his official robe and knelt directly on the ground.

"Oh, why are Lin Zhongtang doing this! Your Majesty summoned several princes early in the morning, and they have been there for several hours! If you kneel here, you don't know how long it will take!"

Lin Yun looked serious, glanced at him and said, "So, please help Eunuch Cao to report it! Just say that Lin Yun has something important to report!"

Cao Shaoqing sighed: "Okay! I will go and report it now, but if Your Majesty doesn't see Master Zhongtang, please don't blame me!"

Lin Yun joked: "I believe Eunuch Cao must have a solution, right?" Cao Shaoqing was completely speechless. He knew that the ten thousand taels of silver were not so easy to get, so he could only turn around and leave.

Even though he was just a eunuch in charge, he had served the emperor for many years and was deeply trusted. If ordinary officials dared to force themselves like this, they would go crazy.

But this was Lin Yun, whom he couldn't afford to offend.

When the emperor and Du Sheng were talking alone before, he waited outside the door. However, after hearing many things about Lin Yun, the emperor spoke highly of Lin Yun and was even more afraid of Lin Yun.

Even the emperor loves and hates such a powerful minister. How dare he, a eunuch and chief eunuch, dare to provoke him?

In the royal study, the emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the folds in his hands, his face uncertain.

Under the stage, the two princes stood on each side. The young man in yellow robe was the current prince Li Daozhen.

At this time, the emperor put down the secret fold and sighed: "Second brother, you sent someone to deliver this secret fold in Jiangxia County. Don't you have nothing to explain?"

It turns out that Jiangxia County has always been under the control of the imperial court, but recently, a force among the people suddenly emerged. In just a few months, it has grown to a large scale and has become a confrontation with Jiangxia County's Shenji Camp.

The second prince Li Daozong clasped his fists and said: "Father, as far as I know, these rebel thieves are well-equipped with weapons and equipment, all wearing silver helmets and silver armor with bamboo guns. Although they only have a few thousand people, their fighting power is amazing. The gods under my command are The machine battalion fought against them many times and suffered a lot!"

On the side, Prince Li Daozhen kept his head lowered, but when he heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up intentionally or unintentionally.

The emperor sneered: "So, you suspect that Lin Zhongtang secretly planned everything?"

Now the bamboo gun has become Lin Yun's signature brand. No matter where it appears, outsiders will think of Lin Yun first.

Li Daozong was shocked and quickly explained: "I don't mean that! I know that Lin Zhongtang is loyal to the court, and he will not betray his father. I just report to my father truthfully!"

The emperor looked incomprehensible, looked at the prince below and said, "Daozhen, since you are the prince, what do you think about this matter?"

Li Daozhen pondered for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "My son, I think Lin Zhongtang is very suspicious! It is understandable that my father values ​​Lin Zhongtang, but the actual situation should also be considered. He now has two identities. One is the Minister of the Ministry of War and a military aircraft." The minister is the actual controller of Fengyang County, and Lin Xuan is just a pawn he pushed out! If he has the intention to rebel in the future, it will be very harmful to the court, not to mention Jiangxia County! A group of well-armed rebels appeared out of thin air, which at least proves that this matter is not as simple as the second brother thought! "

Originally, he and Lin Yun had no grievances in the past and had no enmity in recent times, but after he listened to the instigation of several powerful officials from the princeling party, Lin Yun had become a thorn in Li Daozhen's side.

Especially when he learned that Lin Yun had secretly had a tryst with Cui Hongyu a few days ago, he was even more furious.

In his heart, Cui Hongyu is his forbidden love, and anyone who touches her will die.

But Lin Yun is a person with real power, and Li Daozhen has no good solution. He didn't expect that his second brother would bring such a good opportunity this time, so he naturally wouldn't miss it.

Li Daozong suddenly looked up at the prince and explained: "Father... I dare not agree with the prince's statement! As far as I know, Lin Zhongtang was doing arms business privately in Fengyang County before he became famous. Whether it was Fulin'an , or both princes have bamboo guns in their hands, it’s hard to tell who is the real culprit behind this matter, so please think twice!”

The emperor glanced at the prince with a sinister look, then smiled happily.

It is said that a son is better than his father, so the emperor naturally understood the thoughts of these two sons.

He knew everything that happened in the capital these days.

Including Lin Yun secretly going to Yichun Tower to meet Cui Hongyu, which led to Cui Ming's sudden assassination.

Behind this series of events, they all point directly to the princelings.

And the reason why he has been allowing the princelings to grow and develop is not because he deliberately allows those old guys to do whatever they want, but because he wants to see the prince's true ability.
