Chapter 727 Winning over the Fu family, taking the wrong approach

"Hey, Mr. Fu didn't mention that matter at the beginning, so I completely forgot about it! This time I came here, I just want to repair the relationship with Mr. Fu! By the way, I want to talk about some official business!!"

Fulinan nodded and immediately turned sideways and said: "Please take a seat in Lin Zhongtang!!"

Lin Yun was not polite and sat directly on the Grand Master's chair. He looked at Fu Tianchen, who was a little uneasy, and said with a smile: "By the way, I have just returned to Beijing. I heard that Brother Tianchen has already joined the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister. It's really gratifying. Congratulations!"

Fu Tianchen had approached him privately at the beginning, with the purpose of lobbying Lin Yun, hoping to join the cabinet, but Lin Yun blocked him.

Fu Tianchen clasped his fists and said, "Lin Zhongtang is now the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department. I hope Lin Zhongtang can take care of him in the future!"

Fulin'an also echoed: "That's right! Lin Zhongtang is now the leader of all officials, and has gained the emperor's trust even more. Our Fu family will definitely follow Lin Zhongtang's lead in the future!!"

Lin Yun looked surprised. On the way here, he was still thinking about how to persuade the Fu family father and son.

But I didn't expect the other party to be so proactive.

"Well... these are all trivial matters! Mr. Fu is a smart man. You should be able to guess the purpose of my visit, right?"

How could Fulin'an be so scheming and talk nonsense? He turned to look at his son and said, "Tianchen, now that Lin Zhongtang is here, you still won't apologize, right?"

Fu Tianchen glanced at Ma Ji awkwardly and said, "I believe Lin Zhongtang already knows what happened in Ma's Mansion last night, right? I can't disobey the emperor's orders, so I'm unreasonable to Master Ma and Master Qi, please." Lin Zhongtang, please bear with me!"

Ma Ji would not be discouraged by his insincere apology, but in this situation, he did not dare to be arrogant, so he could only be patient and nod to Fu Tianchen with a smile.

At this time, Lin Yun said meaningfully: "Sir, I'm talking about such a trivial matter? I'm here this time to give you the chance to change the fate of the Fu family! Especially now that Mr. Fu is still leading The body of sin…”

Fulin'an's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Don't blame Lin Zhongtang. I just can't figure out what you and the emperor are thinking, so I don't dare to draw any conclusions! Therefore, if Lin Zhongtang has something to say, you might as well say it directly. I will definitely give my due due diligence." Sincerity!”

Lin Yun put his right arm on the table, leaned forward, and suddenly said: "The emperor wants to declare war on King Chu Jiang..."

As soon as these words came out, Fulin'an and his son were dumbfounded.

I didn't expect Lin Yun to be so direct, nor did I expect the news to be so explosive.

Fulin'an was surprised and said: "Lin Zhongtang, this joke is not funny at all! Are you making fun of me?"

Lin Yun rolled his eyes and said: "It's not that I, Lin Yun, speak harshly. There is nothing for me to worry about in the Fuji family now! My coming here this time is also the intention of the emperor. I hope that we can unite and jointly resist internal and external troubles! If If Mr. Fu can make amends this time, maybe the emperor will be able to forgive you for your treason!"

On the side, Fu Tianchen was ecstatic in his heart. Although he had been holding back, he still couldn't help but smile.

If his father could be pardoned, it would be of great significance to the future of the Fu family.

However, Fulin'an would not be fooled by Lin Yun's words and could not find Bei. He said solemnly: "I know that the foreign troubles Lin Zhongtang mentioned were the King of Chu Jiang, but what are the internal troubles?"

Having been a powerful minister for most of his life, he knows very well that fatal traps are often hidden unintentionally.

Needless to say, Lin Yun knows the so-called benefits better than anyone else, but the more tempting something is, the greater the risk it takes.

He would not be so naive as to think that Lin Yun would show his kindness for no reason, let alone forget about the pain after his scar healed.

Lin Yun showed an intriguing smile, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said: "Well... Mr. Fu, I didn't expect that you could still drink such good tea after being under house arrest here? Could it be the best gift from the palace?" Fulin'an frowned and said, "It won't be too late to talk about the tea later. If Lin Zhongtang likes it, I will send someone to deliver the tea to Yun Mansion later~! Let’s talk about internal worries first, shall we?”

He was very eager to know the current situation. Although his son had joined the cabinet, his foundation was too shallow and he could not enter the first echelon. If the emperor had anything to do, it was impossible to tell him.

Lin Yun put down his tea cup and said in a deep voice: "The relationship between the Emperor and the Queen Mother has become very tense!"

Fulinan's heart skipped a beat and fell into silence.

Fu Tianchen on the side had a surprised look on his face, his thoughts written all over his face.

On the contrary, Ma Ji had already heard Lin Yun mention it during the day, but had no reaction and just lowered his head and remained silent.

At this time, Fulin'an said: "The emperor wants us to unite and fight against the Queen Mother?"

Lin Yun nodded: "For now, the emperor hopes to stabilize the situation for the time being! Then slowly take care of King Chu Jiang!!"

Fulinan shook his head and said: "This is almost impossible! Lin Zhongtang may not know the relationship between King Chu Jiang and the Queen Mother, right?"

"I know! Aren't they just brothers and sisters?"

Fu Tianchen suddenly interrupted: "I heard that the Queen Mother is ill and has not recovered yet. If the Emperor takes action now, wouldn't it be..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fulin'an scolded: "Don't talk nonsense! Did you see the Queen Mother sick with your own eyes? Also, there are many secrets in the palace, how much do you know? If it was so easy, how could the emperor wait until today?"

Lin Yun also said: "The emperor cannot take action easily, otherwise it will only force King Chu Jiang to rebel in advance!"

In fact, Lin Yun secretly instigated the current pressure on the court to be so great.

It is just paving the way for the next military reform.

He not only wanted to seize the wealth of King Chujiang, but also wanted to use this opportunity to weaken the national power of the Daduan Dynasty.

Therefore, we can only provoke their relationship, and it is best to fight until both sides lose.

However, the feud between the Emperor and the Queen Mother had nothing to do with Lin Yun, they just happened to catch up.

Fulin'an raised his eyes and looked at Lin Yun and asked, "Lin Zhongtang will tell me how the Fu family can cooperate?"

Lin Yun said playfully: "Mr. Fu, have you ever heard of Dongjishi Factory?"

Fulin'an was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course, ordinary officials may not know about the power that the Queen Mother has supported, but we old guys know it all!"

Lin Yun raised his eyes and looked at Fu Tianchen, wondering: "How much funding does the Ministry of Household Affairs allocate to Dong Jishi Factory every year?"

Fu Tianchen pondered for a moment and said: "About ten million taels per year! Lin Zhongtang must be thinking about this matter, right? Back then, the emperor had decreed in front of the Queen Mother that no matter what the circumstances, this money could not be withheld. , must be allocated to the Dongjishi Factory!”

He was only qualified to know the existence of Dongjishi Factory after he became the Minister of Household Affairs. He was quite afraid of this hidden force.
