Chapter 133 A dog will bite when it is in a hurry

"Does Ning Yuan know that today's court seems to be divided into three factions?"

He nodded and said with a smile, "I know a thing or two. 【】"

He knew a thing or two, and naturally learned some things from his elder brother Su Yi's reply.

In his letter, he once asked about the current situation of the court and the foundation of Lin Hailu's reign.

When I wrote the letter, nothing happened to the Li family, so I sent a second letter later.

Due to missed time, the second letter did not arrive, but the first letter came back, so the reply did not mention anything about the Li family, but mentioned Lin Hailu's background in detail.

To sum up, there is actually nothing worth writing about, except that Lin Hailu has a close relationship with someone, and he has a good relationship with someone, and there is nothing special about it.

After reading the whole letter, it was only when he came to the word 'princelings' that he realized something.

There has been no shortage of princes competing for the heir apparent in all dynasties, and the current feudal dynasty is naturally no exception.

The current emperor has been in power for 17 years, and several princes have gradually grown up.In addition to the prince, there is also a second prince who can participate in the competition for the throne.Even if Su Yi didn't mention these things, he could probably hear some market rumors.

After all, Wuling is only more than 100 miles away from Jinling. If there is any news in Jinling City, some rumors can be heard in Wuling City.

The young and promising second prince, who was not convinced by the weak prince, had some conflicts, which were then deliberately exaggerated and spread to the people. He had heard such things more than once.

The princelings and the second princelings seem to be born with each other, and they are enemies.

The two parties each hold a vote of power, and they often quarrel in court proceedings.In the past few years, the princelings had the upper hand, but in the past two years, the second princelings have come from behind.

Most of the scenes that come and go are brothers facing each other and brothers fighting each other. From the perspective of history, this cannot but be said to be the tragedy of the royal children.

Speaking of which, this is also impossible.

There can be many princes, but there is only one throne. As a prince, even if you put all your heart into fighting for the throne, you will be put on the cusp of fighting for the throne.

If you don't go up, you go down, and the end of 'down' is miserable.

If you don't want to be miserable, you have to force yourself, sharpen your head to squeeze and grab.And when you squeeze and grab, people behind you start to follow you, rely on you, and push you hard. At this time, even if you want to retreat, you can't retreat.

In addition to the two parties, there is another faction, which is actually the Qingliu of the court.

In fact, they cannot be called a faction, at most they can only be regarded as an independent force with relatively scattered forces. They are very loose.

These people disdain to be attached to a prince.They are free and unrestrained, provocative words all day long, criticizing the current situation, most of the time, they will talk about topics such as strengthening the army and strengthening the country, going north to recover lost land and so on.They are all young, and more like a group of fighters, with simple ideals, straightforward temperaments, and skeptical attitudes towards everything.

When Mr. Ji raised these three factions, he naturally wanted to point out the fact that Lin Hailu's 'leader' was the princeling.

"Since you know something, the old man doesn't say much. The old man is curious, how are you going to pinch this head?"

He just smiled and said nothing.

This is the difference between an old pedant and a schemer.Old pedants are always used to thinking of problems as complicated and difficult, but they forget that practical problems are actually very simple and simple.

Lin Hailu is a member of the princeling party, which is not bad.But this does not mean that he wants to target the entire princelings.All he had to do was to break Lin Hailu's connection with the princelings.

A Lin Hailu who has been proven to be a piece of rat shit, no matter how strong he is, will be abandoned by the princelings.

He doesn't need to have any contact with the princelings, he just needs to prove that Lin Hailu is a piece of rat shit with his heart, and he doesn't really have to pinch his head.

"Oh. This end seems to be a bit big. If you can't pinch the end, just remove the end." He smiled so-called and didn't explain in detail.

Seeing that Su San was so casual, Elder Ji couldn't help scratching his head a little. Since Su San was already involved, he shouldn't be so casual.

"I'm afraid it's not easy to go with this tail. Lin Hailu stayed in Wuling for so many years, did he make it in vain? The poisonous snake knows how to coil up and hide its tail under its body, not to mention that Lin Hailu is still a big living person Woolen cloth?"

"Even about the Li family matter, you have some clues in your hands, but have you ever thought about it? If Lin Hailu insists, this whole matter is just the result of Lin Zixiang's collusion with the bandits!!! how?"

"At that time, even if there are some rumors, who can compete with him in this Wuling City? If you go down with this stick, if you don't kill him, he will give you clues and break your travel possession. , he can put you to death. Do you understand?"

He nodded.Naturally I understand.

Otherwise, why did he hide Lin Zixiang, why did he ask Mr. Li to live in the Zhou Mansion temporarily?And why set up Lin Zixiang's scheme of greedy for money and ransom to attract the attention of the Lin family?

Isn't it just waiting for the opportunity?

"According to what Elder Ji said, you can't pinch this end, and you can't break this tail. So what does Elder Ji mean?"

"Difficult. If outside forces help, we are only trapped in Wuling, and it is not easy to deal with Lin Hailu, who is the guard of the city. If you are not careful, you will be wiped out."

Seeing the ease in Su San's words, Mr. Ji explained the consequences carefully.When a dog is in a hurry, it will bite. When Lin Hailu is not in a hurry, he dares to set up a plan to rob the Li family, set fire to them, break into the house and kill and rob him. If Lin Hailu is in a hurry, there is nothing he can't do.

When that time really came, even a powerful idler like himself would have the strength to protect Su San.

Seeing Ji Lao's concerned eyes and slightly worried expression, he couldn't help but smile softly.

When people get along for a long time, they always have feelings.Although he clearly knew that Ji Lao's worries were completely superfluous, but Ji Lao's intentions, he couldn't ignore them.

In fact, Mr. Ji's worries cannot be completely said to be his fault. It is not easy to think so deeply and look at the overall situation.

But after all, Mr. Ji is a scholar, not a manipulator. He has overlooked a very crucial point, which is change.

Move with the trend, guide in response to the trend, the reason why a good planner is good plan is not to take advantage of various changes in the situation, to lead the development of the situation that is beneficial to him.

There is an improvisation here.

Ji Lao has a big picture view, but he has not grasped the essence of adapting to changes, so the problem will naturally become rigid.If you really want to listen to his analysis, dealing with Lin Hailu was a mistake from the very beginning.

But in fact, far from it.

Things are changing, people's hearts are flexible.The interior of the princelings, as well as the Wuling City run by Lin Hailu, are not monolithic.

Maybe it doesn't come out on the surface, but if you look inside carefully, there are cracks intertwined.

The officials are at odds, and Zhang He has different ambitions.There are as many resentful people as there are forests and seas in the city.

As long as these are uncovered one by one, the Lin family has been operating in Wuling for a hundred years, so what?

After taking off the mask, he is just a skeleton, and there are always times when he can't look at each other from head to tail.

The only thing that made him agree with Ji Lao was that he needed external force.

An external force that can check and balance Lin Hailu is needed.

And this external force is the medicine that urges Lin's demise.

It's not easy for him to explain these words to Ji Lao, in fact, he can't explain clearly.

Somewhat similar to "Summer insects can't speak ice", explaining these intrigues with Ji Lao is basically equivalent to talking to Niuqin.

If Mr. Sheng was here, he could explain a thing or two.However, if Sheng Lao is here, Sheng Lao will not ask "where is the head and where is the tail", most likely, when he breaks the dead branch, he will be able to understand what his sword is pointing at.

It's also a matter of left and right, since Elder Ji must ask, then he will try to talk, whether he can understand and turn clearly, it is not something he can control.

So he pointed to the gently swaying branches by the lake and said, "Ji Lao and that branch."

Ji Lao turned his head sideways and looked at the branches.

It was a weeping willow by the lake, and its branches are now bald.Only dead branches are left, swaying in the breeze.

Elder Ji didn't understand why Su San changed the subject suddenly.

"I don't understand something, I want to ask Mr. Ji for advice." He smiled softly.

"Oh." Not knowing what kind of medicine Su San was going to sell, Elder Ji simply stopped talking.

"There was a gentle breeze, and the willow branch swayed gently, but I didn't know: Is it the wind? Is it the branch? Or... the heart?" He said softly, thinking with his heart.

Hearing this roughly, Mr. Ji felt a little chatty, but when he thought about it carefully, he became a little crazy.

Whether it is the wind, the flag, or the heart, this allusion has been widely spread in the previous life.In fact, the allusion itself is really thought-provoking.
