Chapter 741 Fulinan’s power tactics
"Does that need to be said? Even if what happened last night was not the emperor's will, it was still the emperor's tacit approval! As for the Queen Mother... she was probably frightened by Lin Yun's desperate tactics!"

"Oh, it turns out that the Eighth Prince is not confused! Since you know so well, why don't you take this opportunity to make the most correct choice?"

The Eighth Sage King smiled contemptuously: "The right choice? Is he to be Lin Yun's douchebag?"

"Why did the Eighth Prince speak so harshly? This is an officialdom, not a fighting arena. Even if he kills people, he uses a soft knife! What's more, under the current situation, if the Eighth Prince still can't let go of his dignity, he may die more than The fifth prince is even worse! Moreover, I am a living example!"

The Eight Wise Kings looked at him with a complicated expression and said, "Fu Lin'an, did he, Lin Yun, give you the ecstasy soup to make you so determined?"

"Haha, I am not dead-set! I just know how to assess the situation! I was really confused at the beginning, I was on the wrong team, and chose the path of disobedience to the holy way! But after half a year of reflection, I have realized it! Politics is never about life and death, but about trying to find ways Have the last laugh!”

Such a philosophical voice made the Eight Wise Kings fall into deep thought.

"Live and die... have the last laugh!!"

Suddenly, he raised his eyes to look at Fulin'an and said playfully: "Thank you, Lord Fu, for the reminder! I will definitely keep it in mind! However, your sudden visit this time is definitely not meant to enlighten me, right? If you have anything to say, just tell me. alright!"

Fulin'an said: "In a word, Lin Yun's bloodbath in Prince Gong's Mansion last night, the Emperor's reaction, and the Queen Mother's reaction have shown that the division of the imperial court has reached the brink of collapse! In other words, the Daduan Dynasty is at its weakest in history. Time, now is the time for us old people to show their value! If we make the right bet, we can still stand! As long as we support Lin Zhongtang and work in step with him, we can restore the original situation of checking and balancing the emperor!"

At the beginning, the emperor was afraid of these powerful ministers, so he supported Lin Yun to join the cabinet and become the prime minister against all opinions.

But as time went by, Lin Yun had turned into a person like these powerful officials, who could not only threaten the emperor, but also threaten the Li family.

"Moreover, I also know something about the Eighth Prince's thoughts. Don't you just hope that the Crown Prince can successfully inherit the throne in the future without being controlled by the Queen Mother? I have a plan that will definitely make the Eighth Prince get his wish!"

Fulin'an said a lot, but the Eight Wise Kings didn't really listen. But when the prince was mentioned, the Eight Wise Kings immediately became energetic.

"What's the plan? Tell me!"

"As far as I know, the emperor secretly assigned Princess Fuyao to ask Lin Zhongtang to assist the second prince Li Daozong in competing with the prince for the crown prince! The eighth prince should have known about this for a long time! Right?"

"That's right! You don't need to talk nonsense, just get to the point!"

Fulin'an smiled and gently stroked his beard and said: "This time Lin Yunruo defeated the forces behind the Queen Mother. On the surface, he was helping the Emperor consolidate his power. It seemed to be of no benefit to all of us, but in fact, he also cleared the Queen Mother for the Prince. This is the biggest obstacle! If the Eighth Prince thinks about it carefully, if the situation in the court is stabilized and the prince can not be exploited by all parties, is it necessary for the emperor to let Lin Zhongtang train the second prince? "

The Eight Sage King's eyes lit up and he murmured to himself: "That's right! Why didn't I think of this!"

The reason why the emperor planned to give up the prince was because the queen mother was causing trouble and made the emperor afraid?
If the power of the Queen Mother collapses, what else will the Emperor be afraid of? The prince is already justified, and even if Lin Yun supports the second prince, he will definitely face opposition from the civil and military officials of the court.

As long as he secretly guides him a little, the prince can regain the emperor's trust.

Fulin'an said with a proud look on his face: "How is it? Does the Eighth Prince still have any doubts? You can tell me, I will definitely satisfy you!"

The Eighth Sage King took a deep breath and said: "Fu Lin'an, you are indeed an old fox! I thought that your Fu family would be the first to fall, but I didn't expect that there would be a day when it would rise again! Okay, I will listen to you just once!"

Fulin'an stood up and said, "Eighth Prince, there is no need to say thank you now! If the Crown Prince can really be honored as a great treasure in the future, and the Eighth Prince can speak a fair word for my Fu family, I will be satisfied!"

The Eight Wise Kings nodded and said: "This is natural! However, have you ever thought about it, if Lin Zhongtang has evil intentions and covets the throne?"

Fulin'an joked: "If that day comes, I will turn around and say something fair for the Eighth Prince! With that said, I will take my leave now!"

Afterwards, he turned and left. After all, Fulin'an came out to do things secretly, so he couldn't delay for too long. Once discovered, he would not only be suspected, but it would also affect his son's career.

The Eight Wise Kings said nothing and watched him leave.

But all the previous worries disappeared.

It is said that those who are obsessed with the authorities understand clearly, but after Fulin'an prompted him like this, he finally came to his senses.

Ever since Meng Yuan's accident, he has lost his backbone. Even though he can think of many things, he will make wrong judgments because of confusion.

In today's chaos, you must stay calm.

Moreover, Fulin'an was right. He could take advantage of the situation and join Lin Yun. With the help of Lin Yun's talent, he could completely defeat the Queen Mother, help the Prince clear the obstacles, and let the Emperor recognize the Prince again.

If Lin Yun really wants to covet the throne, he can just wait until he regains control of the situation before telling the emperor about it.

In fact, there was no need for him to say anything more. The emperor had already been mentally prepared.

At this time, the Eight Wise Kings shouted: "Here comes someone!"

Soon, a guard walked in the door and bowed.

"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Send an order to have Shi Bao, the governor of Peixian County, secretly come to Beijing. Tell him that I have something important to do with him!"

"As ordered!"

Yun Mansion.

The battle at Prince Gong's Mansion last night brought Lin Yun's vicious reputation to its peak.

But even though everyone knew that Lin Yun was audacious and despised the imperial power, no official dared to speak nonsense.

It was only today that the emperor sent someone to announce the cancellation of the morning court unprecedentedly, which allowed the civil and military officials to see the clues.

Therefore, Yun Mansion was crowded with people early in the morning.

Many officials from the imperial court, big and small, sent their housekeepers and servants to come and give gifts.

There are countless gold, silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings. In order to please Lin Yun, some officials actually put their thoughts on his three wives, and the gifts they sent were all rare things that women like.

What left Lin Yun most speechless was that someone actually brought him perfume that flowed out of his hand.

In the past, Lin Yun would have refused, but this time since the emperor wanted to build momentum for him, there was no need for Lin Yun to be polite.

If he could take the opportunity to establish a good relationship with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, it would be of great help to him in the next step of proposing military reforms or fighting against vassal kings with different surnames.
