But she quickly withdrew her attention and did not waste her energy on such trivial matters.
Besides Xiao Yiqing and Xiao Wujiu, she also ignored one person.
That is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Tianchen Kingdom, Xiao Yuzhi.
This person is probably the only one who can survive under their hands.
If Lin Yunshu wants to cooperate with the prince and solve the Lin family's dilemma, he will probably pay a certain price.
What she needs to do is keep the cost within her control.
Lin Yunshu sat in the carriage and slowly tightened his hand.
When will she be able to completely escape this restricted situation?
In my previous life, I didn't wake up, so I didn't feel that I was restricted by others. Now that I have woken up, I actually feel that I am restricted everywhere.
So in my previous life, I was still protected very well by my mother and grandpa.
So much so that the wind and frost outside didn't bother her at all.
Nowadays, it seems that the outside world is very rough, but I am just a drop in the ocean.
Lin Yunshu knew that when people no longer regard themselves as mountains and trees, their entire mentality will change, but she did not expect that her mentality would change so completely, from being careless to being cautious now.
Such a cautious look made it impossible for her to see the shadow of her former self.
Wearing stars and wearing the moon, she paraded in this silent street, facing the bright moon.
The curfew is not particularly important to the powerful. As long as Lin Yunshu still carries the token around her waist, the guards will let her in.
Lin Yunshu didn't appreciate the rare silence along the way. She just sat on the carriage intently, looking at the mansion getting closer to her, thinking about countermeasures.
What do you have on your body that can be traded at the same table as the prince?
Could it be that just relying on the relationship between her brother and His Royal Highness over the years, she could achieve her wish?
Lin Yunshu is no longer the Lin Yunshu he was before, so naturally he won't believe these words.
There are no fathers and sons on the battlefield, let alone in this world full of power. The person she wants to seek refuge with is just her brother who she grew up with and has no blood relationship with her. What should she do?
But even if Lin Yunshu was thinking this, she still insisted on walking up.
She had no retreat, no retreat at all.
When the guards of the Prince's Mansion saw Lin Yunshu, they took the initiative to open the door for her and invited her in.
Even in such a quiet night, the Prince's Mansion was still brightly lit, and the diligent Prince was still on the desk, reviewing the memorial.
Hearing Lin Yunshu's footsteps, he didn't seem to be surprised at all, but pointed to the seat in front of him and asked Lin Yunshu to sit down.
Lin Yunshu looked at the prince who was so calm and composed, and knew that today's matter was not so easy to solve.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Yuzhi, who was a brother-in-law at the beginning, would now be sitting across from him, waiting to be pronounced on the Lin family's sins.
Xiao Yuzhi looked at Lin Yunshu in front of him and sighed, then said: "You should know that we are a country where imperial power is supreme."
"How can anyone else sleep on the edge of the throne?"
"Not to mention that my father is not a suspicious person by nature, but your actions this time are indeed a bit excessive."
"Decades, we have been friends for decades, and now you treat us like this. Where do you put our trust?"
Lin Yunshu knew that the prince's words were not meant for him.
There are many emperor's spies out there.
The emperor probably knew that he would come to ask for help, so he arranged these people around many princes and wanted to hear their voices.
This was the first time for Lin Yunshu to be scolded by the prince so harshly.
But there is no way, this matter is the fault of Lin Mansion, even if she is dissatisfied, she has to accept it, and she has to show some sincerity.
So Lin Yunshu said: "His Royal Highness is right."
"This matter is because the Lin Mansion is sorry for Tianchen, and I am willing to use my own efforts to exchange for the Lin Mansion's chance of survival."
Xiao Yuzhi did not expect that Lin Yunshu, who used to be hot-tempered and straightforward, could now understand the meaning behind his words.
He raised his eyebrows with interest, put down the brush in his hand, and asked, "How do you want to atone for your sins?"
Lin Yunshu has not forgotten that the situation at the Tianchen border at this time is actually very pessimistic.
If his grandfather was still alive in his previous life, then the regent could go to the border to guard the border without any distractions.
But now that Grandpa has left, the generals of Tianchen Kingdom have lost their backbone.
They are leaderless and will definitely feel a little restless if they want to compete for the top position.
The regent's role now is to stay here and try to suppress them.
The situation on the border is even more severe.
At this time, you can take action, and you can take out the Lin Mansion, show your determination, and prove that you will always be on the emperor's side.
Secondly, it can also temporarily keep the Lin Mansion away from the dangers in the center. At this time, they should not appear in front of Tianchen Emperor and make him upset. They only need to lie dormant for a while and return again after achieving military merit.
These are all things that come naturally, and they are also the best retreat and the best choice.
Xiao Yuzhi was really surprised this time. Looking at Lin Yunshu in front of him, he felt that Lin Yunshu had really grown up.
But looking at Lin Yunshu, who was so mature and considerate, he felt a little heartache.
Lin Yunshu, who always looked for him when he got into trouble, finally grew up to be able to shoulder heavy burdens.
They have all grown up into adults in this turbulent era, but they seem to be getting farther and farther away.
Xiao Yuzhi knew that his father had spies outside his room, so he deliberately told his father such things.
This is the best option and the only way out.
If Lin Yunshu's speed was any slower, the next big knife would definitely fall on Lin Yunshu's head.
Xiao Yuzhi sighed, with a complicated expression, and then said: "I will report to my father tomorrow and wait for him to make a decision."
Xiao Yuzhi paused for a moment, and his tone was a little changed: "You are serious."
Lin Yunshu knew that this matter was already a done deal.
All he had to do was wait for the imperial edict, and then take his mother and brother to the border.
As for Lin Yunjiao, Mrs. Lin, and those blind elders, Lin Yunshu could only let them seek their own blessings.
If they wanted to, they could naturally leave with him, but I didn't know if they, who were used to living a wealthy life, could endure the poverty on the frontier.
But if they don't leave, they can stay in Kyoto, but at that time they are no longer nobles that everyone respects, but traitors that everyone shouts to beat.
