"I think so too!" Lin Hui took a stool himself and sat in front of Shen Zizhuo.
"Even if His Majesty the Seventh Prince and several princes and concubines possess martial arts and can protect themselves, it is certainly impossible to kill these wolf-like and tiger-like warriors."
Lin Hui evaluated Chu Tian and the several princes and concubines based on what he knew, and said, "Even a battle-hardened general like me, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill those rebels."
"What if there is someone protecting His Majesty the Seventh Prince?"
Lin Hui stared at Shen Zihuo fiercely.
Shen Zizhen looked at Lin Hui doubtfully, "You mean, His Highness Seventh Prince is protected by experts?"
Lin Hui nodded fiercely and said, "There must be a lot of help in the right way, but little help in the wrong way. Huo Du rebelled in the peaceful and prosperous times and made Da Chu very uneasy. There must be some hidden masters who can't stand it anymore and stand up to help His Highness Seventh Prince."
Lin Hui wanted to say that for example, his master Meng Huo might be able to stand up and help His Highness Seventh.
He was just guessing and didn't have accurate information, so he didn't dare to say it.
However, it is certain that His Highness Seventh Prince, Wan'er and the others are surrounded by experts to help them.
Shen Zizhen finally had news about His Highness the Seventh Prince and his Yan'er, and he felt a little relieved.
Immediately, the eyes he looked at Lin Hui became sharp, and even his tone of voice became much colder.
"General Lin is now a popular figure around Huo Dou. Why did he come to our Shen family? Isn't he here to tell me that Huo Dou's people were killed? Does the Seventh Highness have someone to help him?"
Lin Hui saw that Shen Zizhen was very concerned about him doing things for Huo Dou, so he quickly said, "Shibo, let's be honest, I met His Highness the Seventh Prince a few days ago. He ordered me to contact the ministers of the court, pretend to submit to Huo Dou, hibernate, and wait. Fight him back!"
Shen Zizhuo stared at Lin Hui in disbelief.
Lin Hui continued, "I have contacted many colleagues who are loyal to Da Chu. While everyone is dealing with Huo Du in the court, we must protect ourselves and our families. When His Highness the Seventh comes back, we can help His Highness govern Da Chu!"
Shen Zizhen slowly sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Have you really met His Majesty the Seventh Prince?"
Shen Zizhen remembered that Lin Hui had always been loyal to the imperial court. In order to show his loyalty to the imperial court, after the eldest princess entered the royal family, he immediately handed over the military power to the emperor and withdrew all his lieutenants from the army.
With such fierce loyalty, Shen Zizhao never thought that Lin Hui could seek refuge with Huo Dou.
But the facts are there. Lin Hui not only defected to Huo Dou, but also helped Huo Dou win over many courtiers to support Huo Dou.
A man who was loyal to the imperial court turned his back and loyal to Huo Du, which puzzled Shen Zizhao.
If Lin Hui was ordered by His Highness Seventh Prince and had to deal with Huo Dou in order to protect the officials of Da Chu, then this would make sense.
Lin Hui nodded fiercely and said, "Now, all six princes have died at the hands of Huo Dou, and there is only one seventh prince left in the royal family of Da Chu. And my daughter Wan'er, and your old granddaughter Yan'er, as well as several other princes and concubines, are fleeing with His Highness Seventh. They will all become His Highness's people in the future. We will be a family from now on. I, Lin Hui, swear here that every word I say is from my heart. From the bottom of my heart, if I deceive Shen Shibo even one word, I, Lin Hui, will die without a burial place!"
I made this solemn oath just for him, Shen Zihuo.
Shen Zizhen couldn't help but feel moved, nodded and said, "I believe that General Lin, with General Lin's character, will not come to deceive the old man."
"Before, it was because I didn't understand why General Lin turned to Huo Dou that I made sarcastic remarks to General Lin! I hope General Lin won't argue with me!"
Seeing him arriving late at night, Lin Hui was so happy that he was able to talk things through to Shen Zizhu. He immediately said, "What did Shen Shibo say? From now on, we will all work for His Highness Seventh. In the future, when His Highness comes back, we will all belong to His Highness." A loyal minister and good general."
Shen Zizhuo nodded.
Suddenly, Shen Zizhen turned his face and shouted out the window, "Shen Fu!"
Shen Fu, who was standing outside the window, came in immediately, "Master!"
Shen Zizhen signaled to Shen Fu, "Take this medicinal soup out and throw it away!"
"This?..." Shen Fu looked at Mrs. Shen.
These days, the master is relying on these medicinal soups to survive. What if the master doesn't even drink the medicinal soup?
Shen Zizhen said sternly, "Master, I'm hungry, why don't you go get me something to eat!"
He hadn't eaten in a long time, and he couldn't get rid of the heavy breath in his stomach. Today, he finally figured it out.
He wanted to wait for His Majesty Seventh Prince to come back, and for his Yan'er to come back.
Shen Fu was stunned, "Master?...Yes!"
Shen Fu picked up the medicine bowl and left happily.
Got outside. , and quickly ordered the boy guarding the door, "Go and tell the cook quickly to bring the rice porridge prepared for the master! The master is hungry!"
"Ah?...Yes!" The boy ran away quickly.
They all depend on the Shen family for their survival. If the master is gone, they may be sold.
The master has not been alive for many days. Today, the clouds of loyalty have cleared and the fog has cleared.
The Shen family became lively as if celebrating the New Year.
Lin Hui continued, "Shibo, without Shibo's consent, I wrote a letter privately to the two brothers who were guarding Southern Xinjiang, asking them to still guard Southern Xinjiang and temporarily obey Huo Du's orders. Let His Majesty Seventh Prince come back! Shibo won't blame me, right?"
Shen Zizhen's heart tightened.
It's not that he hasn't thought about his two sons these days, it's just that he doesn't even know where to go, so how can he care about the whereabouts of his two sons.
Shen Zizhen nodded slightly, "General Lin did the right thing. This is what my Shen family owes to General Lin. I thank General Lin!"
Lin Hui waved his hand and said directly, "Uncle Shi, although we were all relatives of the emperor before, after all, we each support our uncle, and we each have our own little calculation in our hearts."
"Now, we are all ministers of His Highness Seventh, and we are all loyal to His Highness Seventh. We will be a family in the true sense from now on."
"Yes! We are all a family from now on." Mrs. Shen said with emotion.
"General Lin, sit down quickly and tell me how you met His Highness Seventh Prince, and how you saw Jiang Gan and his men killed by His Highness Seventh Prince and the others?"
Shen Zizhen was curious and stared at Lin Hui fiercely.
Lin Hui told him how decadent he felt when he heard that the emperor was killed by the rebels, the princes were killed by the rebels, and his daughter was missing, and how life was worse than death.
Then, Lin Hui made a sharp turn and said, "His Majesty the Seventh Prince is like a god descending to earth, standing in front of me!"
"At that time, I was still thinking that those who could evade the secret guards I trained must have some skills. Maybe they were criminal thieves who wanted to take advantage of the chaos in Kyoto and take advantage of it."
