Is this the prince?
The great talent is still a little confused, and I don't blame him. He doesn't regard himself as a prince at all, but the current situation...
Find a chance to make it clear to Lao Zhu?
Lin Bai really didn't care about the prince, but it was really a headache to know what happened twenty years ago and what was hidden.
He is now a little unsure about whether Zhuiyue is a princess or not. Will it be reversed when the time comes?
As far as the current situation is concerned, that's not necessarily the case.
have to! forget about it.
If I try to trick Yang Guozhong another day, wait until Zhuiyue comes back and see what her attitude is.
"Father-in-law, Your Majesty hasn't announced it yet! Besides, a prince or something, why don't you do that?"
Lin Bai said casually.
Yan Zhenlin said: "Hurry! The Dali Temple Procuratorate of the Ministry of Punishment is already stepping up its efforts. It's just a process."
"As for the prince, that is naturally different. Even if you don't want to do something, others will think you do, and the people who depend on you will push you forward."
"What's more, among the princes, who would dare to go up if you don't? Who can convince the public? The civil and military officials of the whole dynasty will not agree, and neither will the people of the world."
Comrade Lao Yan looked proud.
Things in the world are so strange. He had already given up on participating in the fight for the heir, but in the end, he went around and around again.
Of course, it doesn't count as going back, because in his opinion, this is not difficult at all.
Looking around, there really is no one who can fight.
There is no way, my uncle is too outstanding, no matter whether he is talented or capable, no one dares to question him.
Lin Bai curled his lips, naturally understanding what his father-in-law was saying, and said, "Is it too early?"
Yan Zhenlin said: "It doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later. My father is telling you this. I just want to remind you that from now on, you can no longer just think about things from the perspective of a minister like before. You must learn to cultivate your own people and know how to make good use of them."
"For example, Yang Guozhong, what do you think of this person?"
Lin Bai was vomiting in his heart, but he knew that his father-in-law was doing it for his own good, so he could only say: "Not bad! He is quite capable, but he is also very courageous. He actually..."
Yan Zhenlin said: "This is not important. For you, there are only two criteria for hiring people, whether they are capable and whether they are loyal enough."
"In fact, people who are unfaithful also have unfaithful uses. We won't discuss this for now."
"Talk about Yang Guozhong alone. Not only is he capable, but his management over the years has been intricate and powerful. He spared no effort for a fake prince. He will definitely do his best for you, a real prince."
"Although he is not necessarily loyal to which prince, but to his own power, it is not important. Everyone has something to ask for. There will be many people attached to you in the future. They..."
Brother Keyuan is also a fake!
Lin Baixin said.
However, my father-in-law taught me kindly, so the talented man could only listen obediently.
royal palace.
Royal Garden.
The eunuch and the palace maid have prepared a table of wine and food, which is not too rich, just ordinary home-cooked dishes.
Zhu Tianzheng sat in front of the table with a flourish, looking very happy.
On the side, the Queen's face did not show much fluctuation.
Zhu Ziyan's face looked a little ugly, maybe she still couldn't let go.
At this time, several guards came in with Yang Guozhong. After being held in the prison for two days, he looked obviously haggard. When he saw these people, he quickly begged for mercy.
Zhu Tianzheng snorted, "Your death is not a pity, I wish I could cut you into pieces."
"However, Yan Xiang is right. The Queen and Qingfeng are the biggest victims in this matter. Whether you live or die, we will wait until Qingfeng comes."
While talking, Eunuch Cao and Lin Bai had already arrived.
Lao Zhu summoned him, saying it was a family banquet, but in fact he just wanted to meet the queen. The talented man really didn't want to come, but he had no choice...
Moreover, he also wanted to see the queen's attitude.
Zhu Ziyan cast her eyes over first, with a trace of sadness in her eyes, but she still said: "I've seen the emperor brother!"
Although it has not been officially announced yet, Lao Zhu's family banquet has already made the problem clear.
Lin Bai was helpless and smiled.
A good wife turned into a younger sister. This was a big deal. Even though I knew it was fake, I couldn't stand it.
Of course, the talented man just sighed and didn't care at all whether he had one more wife or one less wife.
"I have met Your Majesty, the Queen!"
Lin Bai saluted respectfully.
"well!"
Zhu Tianzheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Isn't it too strange to still call you Your Majesty now?"
? ?
Do you want me to call you father? Lao Zhu, that's enough for you. I'm not your son.
its not right! Not a son but also a son-in-law.
The empress said: "Don't embarrass the child. I'm afraid Qingfeng won't be able to adapt to it for a while. Don't talk about him, I, my concubine..."
She looked a little confused.
Mother and son have been together for twenty years, and it is normal for them to suddenly become a different person, and it is difficult to accept it for a while.
However, Lin Bai vaguely saw something else, but the queen looked at him with very soft eyes, indeed like a mother looking at her child.
it is true? Or do you think of yourself as chasing the moon?
"Thank you for your understanding, Queen. I have lost my memory and have no idea about my past, so..."
Zhu Tianzheng said: "It's a good thing that you have lost your memory. Otherwise, if you just think that you are the prince of the former dynasty, then the Red Lotus Sect will really succeed. The Red Lotus Sect deserves to die. I will definitely wipe them out."
As he spoke, his sharp eyes glanced at Yang Guozhong again, "There is also this bastard. I can't wait to kill him immediately. Queen, Qingfeng, please tell me how to deal with it."
Yang Guozhong quickly begged for mercy, "I deserve to die. I beg the Queen to spare my life, Lord Lin, spare my life..."
"You still have the nerve to beg for mercy?" Zhu Tianzheng cursed.
The queen glanced at Yang Guozhong and said, "As a sister, I naturally hope that my brother can live, but I am a queen, and the country has national laws. No matter what your majesty does, I will support your majesty."
"Empress!"
Hearing this, Yang Guozhong was obviously panicked.
Zhu Tianzheng glanced at the queen with relief, then looked at Lin Bai, "What do Qingfeng think?"
Lin Bai also wanted to push back, but thinking of Yan Zhenlin's words, he looked at the queen again. She definitely wanted to protect her brother.
But the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so I can't say anything more.
The talented man no longer had any scruples in this regard. He paused and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Yang indeed deserves to die, but he did not rebel in the end, which shows that he has no intention of harming Your Majesty."
"In that situation back then, he had to either die or cooperate. If he chose to die, he might not be the only one who died. If it were revealed later, I would probably be gone."
"I am in a different place, and I don't know how to make a decision."
"..."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your understanding. Thank you very much..."
Yang Guozhong kowtowed his thanks repeatedly.
The queen also glanced at Lin Bai with an incomprehensible expression.
"Listen!"
"You have harmed Qingfeng for twenty years, and Qingfeng is still putting himself in your shoes. Are you ashamed? Get out of here right now..."
Zhu Tianzheng vented his anger, and it was not until the guards took him down that he felt a little better.
"Father, please calm down. Finally, your brother is fine. You should have a happy family dinner today," Zhu Ziyan said.
The dinner was quite harmonious and Zhu Tianzheng was very happy.
The queen also served Lin Bai with a lot of dishes.
Lin Bai felt uncomfortable all over, and just wanted to end it quickly. It was finally over.
The queen suddenly said: "Your Majesty, can you let Qingfeng stay? I want to talk to Qingfeng alone."
