Rebirth of the Phoenix

Chapter 77

Speaking of it, I don't know whether Du Yuncheng was lucky or unlucky. Because he had self-knowledge, he knew that he was not valued by saints, and anyone could be made a prince. He had the least hope, so he didn't get involved in the matter of abolishing the prince. .But who knows, it's time for him to come forward!
The more serious the saint's desire to control power, the more he can't tolerate others coveting his throne, even his own son.Almost all the princes got involved in the matter of abolishing the prince before, only Du Yuncheng was alone, and in the eyes of the sage, this youngest son, who has never been taken seriously, was suddenly highlighted ?
Then the saint cleaned up those dishonest sons one by one, leaving only Du Yuncheng.It directly made Du Yuncheng, who was originally the weakest among the many princes, become the most powerful person.I have to say, this is really a black humor!
It is impossible to say that Du Yuncheng is not excited, but what is more in his heart is fear!As we all know, Du Yuncheng has never been valued by saints, so let alone being a prince, even a qualified prince is not so good.Now that he was suddenly pushed to the cusp of the storm, Du Yuncheng certainly felt elated and excited, but at the same time, he also felt uncomfortable being roasted on the fire!

Du Yuncheng himself felt that he lacked energy, let alone other people.The ministers were dissatisfied, and at most they murmured a few words in their hearts. After all, there are saints watching!But Du Yuncheng's brothers were not so polite.

If you lose to the deposed prince, oh no, it's King Yan now, so it's fine if you lose to King Yan. After all, they are stronger than them in terms of status and favor, but you lose to Du Yuncheng?What's the matter? !A little transparent who has never been looked down upon by them also wants to be the prince?Could it be that in the future they will still honor Du Yuncheng as a monarch and minister?Even thinking about it feels unacceptable!He must be pulled down!
The elder brothers made trouble according to the frequency of three meals a day, but Du Yuncheng was alone, and it didn't take long before he couldn't hold on anymore.

The saint was still quite hesitant about making Du Yuncheng the crown prince. After all, Du Yuncheng's ability is really beyond his reach!But looking at this situation, it strengthened his determination.Although the saint himself cleaned up his brothers cleanly at the beginning, it doesn't mean that he can accept that his sons also kill each other and fight each other to the death.

Now that Du Yuncheng is doing well, there are people who refuse to let him go. If another son succeeds him, wouldn't his own bloodline be slaughtered? !No matter how bad Du Yuncheng is, at least he has no trouble with the other brothers. Only by letting him succeed to the throne can he save all his sons!
If Lin Yuchan knew the saint's thoughts, he could only give him three words, dreaming!No one knows better than Lin Yuchan what Du Yuncheng has done since he ascended the throne.

It's just that the sage didn't have the ability to predict the future, so he still acted according to his own beautiful vision.Although that is just an unrealistic fantasy of a silly father.He made up his mind to keep all his sons safe. Of course, the sage could no longer just watch those stupid sons offend Du Yuncheng thoroughly, so he stopped them when they tried to make trouble again.

The saint had good intentions, but he was misunderstood unexpectedly. In the eyes of many princes, it strengthened their determination to kill Du Yuncheng.Originally, he was just looking for trouble in the government, but after this incident, he sent dead soldiers directly to destroy Du Yuncheng humanely.

Of course it was impossible for Du Yuncheng to sit back and die, but he really didn't have any useful people around him. He tried his best, but he only dragged a few backs, buying time for Du Yuncheng to escape.Du Yuncheng ran fast all the way, but he was really out of his way.

On this day, it happened that Lin Chengmao took Yang Shi, Lin Yuhui and Lin Yuwan to Zhuangzi to see Lin Yuchan's work.Ever since the matter of Yang's parents happened that year, the masters of the Dingguo Mansion have attached great importance to safety when they travel, which is why Du Yuncheng took advantage of it.

Naturally, it was impossible for Lin Chengmao not to recognize Du Yuncheng, but he couldn't help but be surprised to see him in such a mess.However, Lin Chengmao's IQ and EQ are both bathed in problems. In addition, although he is keeping his filial piety, he is not ignorant of what happened in the court, so he quickly guessed the whole story. Once he saw the dead soldiers chasing after Du Yuncheng, he became more sure of his guess.

After thinking about the reason, Lin Chengmao didn't weigh the pros and cons at all, and chose to help Du Yuncheng directly.This is undoubtedly a big gamble!If you win, you will be able to rise to the top in the future, and if you lose, you will be decapitated immediately.

But Lin Chengmao still gambled!After all, the saint is old, and Lin Chengmao himself is not without ambition.Now there is such an opportunity in front of him, to show his presence in front of the prince who is most likely to become the next saint, Lin Chengmao is so stupid that he doesn't grasp it!And even if Du Yuncheng failed in the end, but seeing the saint's current behavior, the maintenance of Du Yuncheng should last for a while, at least it can help Lin Chengmao recover after the end of his filial piety!
Facts have proved that Lin Chengmao is really betting right!Although he suffered some injuries and lost some manpower because of this, it was nothing compared to the rewards he was about to receive.After Du Yuncheng escaped from danger, he immediately expressed his gratitude to Lin Chengmao, Lin Yuhui and others for their help, and also made his promise in a disguised form.

As for Lin Yuchan, it was originally not suitable for her to meet Du Yuncheng.But when I heard that Lin Chengmao was injured, it's understandable for her daughter to do something inappropriate in a hurry, isn't it? !Sure enough, neither Lin Chengmao nor Du Yuncheng blamed Lin Yuchan for her disrespectful behavior, but thought her filial piety was commendable!
But that's all there is to it!It's understandable to be anxious for a while, but Lin Yuchan didn't dare to go too far.After confirming that Lin Chengmao's injury was fine, he immediately left with a blushing face.

After such a thing happened, Zhuangzi naturally couldn't live anymore.Lin Chengmao took his family back to the capital the next day, and escorted Du Yuncheng by the way.Du Yuncheng was out of danger, of course he didn't say nothing, he came to the door to thank him not long after, and the gift was very generous.After learning that Lin Yuchan had saved her a few years ago, she specially increased her thank you.

This trip is naturally a feast for the guests and hosts!Lin Chengmao didn't value Du Yuncheng's thank you very much, but it was mainly because of his attitude.Now it seems that his sacrifice was worth it.

On the other hand, Lin Yuchan, after receiving the gift from Du Yuncheng, just glanced at it before being put away.She has seen a lot of good things, and the things Du Yuncheng sent over are not enough to make Lin Yuchan's heart flutter.But these things are not completely useless, after she enters the palace, these are all bargaining chips!
Lin Chengmao's injury was not serious, but his arm was cut. After two months of rest, he recovered.Under Mr. Qi's skillful hands, not even a scar was left.

Maybe God couldn't see Lin Chengmao being so leisurely, so he immediately found something for him to do!But this time, it wasn't that something happened to Duke Dingguo's mansion, but his in-laws, Lin Yuting's father-in-law, King Jian Jun, passed away.

When this kind of thing happened, Lin Chengmao originally wanted to visit the door in person to express his condolences, but he himself was still in the period of filial piety, so he was afraid that it would be unlucky to go, so he just sent someone to send a funeral ceremony there.If only this is the case!After all, it's not my family's business, it's enough if you want to.

But who made Lin Chengmao have an uneasy daughter to be the concubine in Jianjun's mansion?As soon as King Jian passed away, one thing had to be put on the agenda after the funeral was over.That is separation!

King Jianjun doesn't just have one son!There are three legitimate sons alone, let alone concubines.The concubines are easy to deal with, but the two younger brothers who were concubines are a headache for Prince Jianjun.The pressure and calculations from her sister-in-law also made Lin Yuting overwhelmed. As a last resort, Lin Yuting could only ask Lin Chengmao for help.

To be honest, Lin Chengmao doesn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, after all, it's not nice to say it!It seems that their Dingguo Mansion is greedy for the family property of Jianjun Wangfu, but Lin Yuting came back to Dingguo Mansion to make a big fuss, which also caused Lin Chengmao a headache, so Lin Chengmao still helped the two sons of Jianjun Wang Shizi. The younger brother exerted some pressure.

The matter was resolved, but Lin Chengmao was completely disappointed with Lin Yuting's daughter, and he had no more feelings for her.This daughter, since she was a child, has never done anything to satisfy Lin Chengmao except for making trouble for him.Anyway, the prince of Jianjun has inherited the title, and he is already the Duke of Jianjun. Lin Yuting has also become Mrs. Jianjun logically. She has a status and status. In the future, it will still be up to her.As a father, I can't follow her forever!
Lin Chengmao is busy recovering now!The filial piety period is over, and this time is different from when Lu Shi died. It is impossible for a saint to let the seat of Minister of Rites be vacant for three years, just waiting for Lin Chengmao to go back.So of course, when Lin Chengmao's filial piety ended, his seat had already been taken by others.

At this time, it can be seen that Lin Chengmao's investment in advance is correct.In the past six months, Du Yuncheng has gradually gained a firm foothold in the court, after all, he has the support of a saint.He is also a nostalgic, not to mention that the Dingguo government rescued him twice in distress. After learning of Lin Chengmao's predicament, he immediately extended a helping hand. When he was about to retire, Du Yuncheng turned around and arranged Lin Chengmao to the Ministry of Punishment.Although this is a flat tone, compared with the Qingshui Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment can undoubtedly be regarded as the real power department.
