Chapter 52: Pondering
In fact, Lin Suqing is indeed somewhat sure, and it is not difficult for him to fight wits and courage. At least it's much easier than fighting those demons and ghosts when you were in Qingqiu.
Ordinary mortals usually pay attention to ways and means of doing things, and because of this, there is a lot of room for maneuver. Therefore, no matter how powerful the Yingwang method is, at least the Yingwang will not use evil magic and witchcraft, which makes him unable to guard against it. If you have to parry, you have to take a detour, and if you have a detour, you will have a chance to save your life.
When it comes to using his brain, he thinks he's pretty good at coping.
Lin Suqing chatted with King Ping for a short time, and many people came to visit him one after another, coming and going, and in a blink of an eye, it was already dusk.
When they dispersed, Lin Suqing was already exhausted, and he fell asleep.
Next, for several days, Lin Suqing claimed to the outside world that he was recuperating, and no one was seen. But "no one is seen" is actually made for outsiders to see, and he wants to cover up - the emperor has not come to visit him in person.
Imagine that the crown prince was injured and fell into a coma, and the emperor did not go to visit, if this was spread out, how would the civil and military officials think? I am afraid that how many people who originally supported the crown prince will shake their determination because of this.
However, the emperor did not come, and Lin Suqing was indeed puzzled for a long time.
Remembering the last time King Ying was poisoned, the emperor went out of the palace the next day to visit King Ying's mansion. However, as the crown prince of a country who shared the emperor's worries and solved problems, the injury on his head was still smashed by the emperor himself, but the emperor only sent some supplements and precious medicinal materials in the next few days, but he himself could not come. Although the oracle said that it was because the prince was resting and he was busy with government affairs, he did not come to disturb the prince's recuperation. There are a lot of kind words and things to consol, but the meaning is really 108,000 miles away from visiting in person.
Ling Lin Suqing always felt that the emperor didn't seem to like him very much as the crown prince. But after thinking about it carefully, the emperor didn't seem to like any of the three brothers.
As the crown prince, I am afraid that I will be worried, but as an outsider, Lin Suqing can understand the emperor's thoughts.
The true prince is strategic, and he has a far-sighted plan to govern the country, which can be described as well-organized.
King Ying is brave and good at fighting, holding large and small military power, and there is no reason to cut his military power at present.
King Ping is smart and alert, resolute and ruthless. On weekdays, it looks like a loaf kitten, but when it is in a hurry, it is also a tiger and leopard that bites people.
The three brothers of this mother's sibling, for the emperor who still has pleasure and does not want to abdicate, no one is a fuel-efficient lamp, and everyone is a threat to the throne, and it is difficult for him to like anyone.
However, it is said that he is a closed door to recuperate, but he is not actually idle during this period.
He was constantly looking through the records of the real prince and the government affairs that the real prince had handled, so that he could be more familiar with the current situation, so that he could make accurate judgments and come up with foolproof strategies.
Moreover, he specially instructed Liang Wenfu and Chen Shuhua that during this period, the big and small events that happened in the court should be reported to him in turn.
It is precisely because of this that he learned - when Feng Ting happened, the emperor promised King Ying in person that after the matter was clarified, he would abolish the prince and change King Ying as the crown prince. They listened to King Ping.
For this reason, Lin Suqing pondered for a long time, why didn't King Ping directly tell him that he had had this incident? Could it be that he was worried that he should not have mood swings during his injury?
I can't figure it out, King Ping's mind is even more difficult to guess than King Ying.
Fortunately, regardless of whether King Ping is sincere to him or not, they are now allies, and King Ping will not be unfavorable to him, the crown prince, until King Ying's power is completely reduced.
King Ping must know very well in his heart that if the crown prince falls, no one can guarantee that King Ying will not make a move against him, King Ping.
Lin Suqing thought about this problem from the perspective of King Ping, if King Ping also had the heart to win the heir, with King Ping himself, he would not be able to fight against any party's strength.
But a smart person like King Ping, he must also know that King Ying has a soft and hard temperament and can't touch his shortcomings. And the crown prince has obvious shortcomings - and excessive integrity and benevolence.
It's not that he Lin Suqing is possessed, but the real prince is like this. Excessive integrity and generosity are sometimes not a strength, but a weakness that can be easily exploited.
It is estimated that King Ping is either playing this abacus, or King Ping is indeed selflessly supporting him, the eldest brother of the prince, and he Lin Suqing spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
But these are not the most important, the most important thing is that the emperor did not remove the crown prince from the East Palace after all.
The reason for this is actually well known, and it is just a secret.
However, they thought that the emperor would let the whole incident pass as usual, but they didn't expect the emperor to issue an edict ordering all palaces and mansions to dismiss their staff.
In this regard, the East Palace had another small meeting to discuss.
Chen Shuhua said: "Come to think of it, Your Majesty thinks that the reason why King Ying has the intention of seizing the heir is that he was instigated by the staff members in the palace, and he thinks that the staff members are suspected of causing trouble to the court. Therefore, the emperor actually wanted to take advantage of the abolition of various palaces and mansions, mainly against King Ying. ”
"Except for the officials in office, let the rest of the people avoid it first, and when necessary, the palace will summon someone else. ”
The Emperor just wanted their brothers to contain each other in order to secure his own throne. Let him go, anyway, as long as he keeps the position of the prince, and when the emperor goes online, he will go online at any time, and it doesn't hurt.
He then asked: "Are there any of the people who have been dismissed in the king's palace that should not have been laid off, or which ones are suspicious?"
The two looked at each other, and after a small discussion, Liang Wenfu replied: "Looking at all the candidates for dismissal, most of them are people from the rivers and lakes, but all those who have recognized an official and a half position in the court have never really withdrawn, but the meeting is more secret." However, there is one person who is very suspicious. ”
Lin Suqing paused, raised his eyes and asked, "Who?"
"King Ying's soldier Cao joined the army Sun Lu and did not commit any major crimes, but somehow he was exiled by King Ying......" Liang Wenfu pondered as he stroked his long white beard.
Chen Shuhua said: "Many of King Ying's exploits are indispensable to Sun Lu's advice. This time, King Ying exiled Sun Lu in the name of dismissing his staff, which really makes people suspicious. ”
"I don't think there's anything to be suspicious about. Lin Suqing pondered selfishly, "It's probably because this Sun Lu has made a lot of contributions to King Ying, such as some things that are not very glorious and can't stand up to verification? It's a brilliant plan. ”
Lin Suqing's words, Liang Wenfu and Chen Shuhua were stunned for a long time, and Lin Suqing said again: "However, this is just a speculation in this palace, you send someone to secretly check whether King Ying has provided any help to Sun Lu's family while exiled Sun Lu." ”
Liang Wenfu and Chen Shuhua were stunned again.
"What are you stunned about? If the palace is wrong in its inference, you can put it forward, and you don't have to be stubborn. ”
Liang Wenfu and Chen Shuhua looked at each other, exchanged glances, and saw that Lin Suqing didn't know why, but he estimated that these two people were hiding something from him.
Lin Suqing threw away the piece in his hand, pretended to be angry, and said: "What is the matter, why is it hidden." ”
Liang Wenfu and Chen Shuhua hurriedly got up, knelt down with their hands in hand, and pleaded: "Your Highness, there is one thing, please forgive your Highness." ”
Lin Suqing suddenly felt surprised, sin?
"The two of you have always been cautious in your words and deeds, how come this palace doesn't know what mistakes the two have made?"
