Chapter 489: Sprouts to Grow

The emperor originally wanted to stay and stay with Lin Yan all the time, but Lin Yan didn't want to see him at all now, so he drove him out directly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The emperor didn't dare to provoke her now, so he had to go out first.

Lin Chengzheng was a little embarrassed in the tent, walked over and sat in front of Lin Yan's bed gently, and said to Lin Yan cautiously: "Sister, are you still angry with your brother?" ”

Lin Yan snorted: "Shouldn't I be angry? ”

Lin Chengzheng said: "I know that my younger brother is wrong this time, and I didn't persuade the emperor, but my sister herself also knows the emperor's temperament, and it is so easy to persuade there." And when he went out this time, his younger brother sent enough people to protect the emperor and Huan'er, and the enemy couldn't even get close to Huan'er by half an inch. ”

Lin Yan said: "Even if you can't persuade this kind of thing, you have to persuade it, if you can't persuade it, you won't let people come to me." He said again: "If something really happens to Huan'er, will your sister live?" ”

Lin Chengzheng saw that she was excited, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's all my brother's fault, sister, don't be angry, take care of the little highness in her belly." ”

Lin Yan took a few deep breaths and said to him: "Okay, you can go out first, I want to be quiet now." ”

Lin Chengzheng sighed deeply, had to stand up, and said to Lin Yan: "That sister has a good rest." ”

As he was talking, the curtain outside the tent was lifted, and Lin Ying appeared at the door.

The father and son glanced at each other, and then Lin Ying gestured to Lin Chengzheng to let him out, and then walked in by himself and sat next to Lin Yan.

Lin Ying put down the sword in his hand and said to Lin Yan who was lying on the bed: "What's the matter, I'm also angry with my father?" ”

Lin Ying has not spoken to Lin Yan in such an intimate tone for a long time, and most of the time on weekdays, Lin Ying will abide by the courtesy of the monarch and call Lin Yan "Niangniang", calling herself "minister", and will not use the word "father".

But despite this, Lin Yan still turned her face away.

Lin Ying motioned for all the people in the account to go out, and then personally hugged the little prince Huan in his arms, and said to Lin Yan: "I know that you are very angry that the emperor brought Huan'er to the battlefield regardless of the danger this time, and the emperor has expectations for Huan'er to become a talent, but he is too anxious." ”

Lin Ying paused, lowered his head and shook the white and tender little hand of the little prince Huan, looked at him lovingly, and then continued: "But you also have to understand why the emperor is in such a hurry. ”

Lin Yan turned her head to look at Lin Ying, then slowly sat up, looked at Lin Ying, and waited for him to continue.

Lin Ying said to Lin Yan: "Our Lin family has been entrenched in the northwest for many years, and its power has been deeply entrenched. With so many troops in the four directions of the Great Liang, the strength and military power of the northwest are the largest and strongest. The emperor seems to have a lot of trust in the Lin family, but it is impossible to watch the Lin family's military power grow until it threatens the imperial power. ”

The position under the throne determines that whoever is the emperor will be suspicious, and the current emperor is already suspicious compared to the first emperor and Emperor Taizong Taizu.

Lin Ying continued: "The Lin family is loyal to the royal family, and the emperor also needs the Lin family to sit in the northwest for him. What should I do in this situation, which can weaken the influence of the Lin family on the military power in the northwest, but will not cause the Lin family's dissatisfaction. It would be best if a figure who was linked to the royal family and the Lin family was in charge of the military power in the northwest. And this person is no more suitable than Huan'er. ”

The emperor may not believe in the Lin family, or he may not believe that the descendants of the Lin family will still be as loyal to the emperor as Lin Ying and Lin Chengzheng, but he will not distrust his son.

And even if this son has an antipathy in the future, the world will still be his Xiao family in the future, but it is just a change of son and grandson to be the emperor, not a change of dynasty. You must know that Emperor Taizu was in charge of the army back then, and then launched the Baqiao Mutiny, and the yellow robe was added to the body and established the girder. He did not guarantee that there would be others who would follow Emperor Taizu's lead in the future.

So after Yuan Yuan entered the palace, he understood that the emperor would definitely let Yuan Yuan have a son.

Lin Yan was silent, she could guess some of the emperor's thoughts, so he knew what Lin Ying said.

But Lin Yan was still dissatisfied and said: "That's too eager, Huan'er is only a few years old, can't he wait for him to grow up a little more?" ”

Lin Ying looked at Lin Yan and said, "You have to think about it, how old is the emperor now?" ”

Lin Yan said strangely: "Forty-two, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Ying asked again, "How old is Huan'er?" ”

Lin Yan said: "I just turned four years old. ”

Lin Ying said: "Yes, there is a thirty-eight year gap between the emperor and Huan'er. You and the emperor are originally old husbands and young wives, and the age between the emperor and Huan'er is like a generation. The emperor is now forty-two, but the first emperor only lived to be fifty-four years old, Emperor Taizu lived to fifty-one, and Emperor Taizong died before he was fifty. According to the average age of several previous emperors, the emperor may think that he has more than ten years left. ”

On weekdays, the ministers and the people shouted long live to the emperor, but in fact, how could anyone live it, even if the emperor couldn't, the emperor could naturally see it clearly.

Lin Ying continued: "Huan'er is only four years old, I'm afraid that the emperor will ......" Lin Ying paused, did not say the remaining words "death", and continued: "...... At that time, Huan'er was only in his early twenties, and the emperor had to let Huan'er sit firmly in the northwest while he was alive, because when the new monarch succeeded to the throne, the new monarch may not have such a mind to let Huan'er hold the military power. Therefore, the emperor will feel that there is not enough time, and he must let Huan'er grow up quickly, so that he can hold the military power as soon as possible. Because of this, the emperor seemed to be a little reluctant to Huan'er. ”

Lin Yan's face became silent, and after a long while, she said: "Will the emperor think too far, the emperor is just in his early forties, and he is in the prime of life, so he thinks about the future." The first emperors only lived to be in their fifties, and not necessarily the emperor could only live to be in their fifties. ”

As far as Lin Yan is concerned, of course, she hopes that the emperor will live as long as possible, not to mention anything else, being the queen mother and being the queen must be more relaxed and comfortable. When she is the queen, she only needs to please the emperor, and when the queen mother shows that she already needs to see the faces of her son and daughter-in-law to live.

Now she is told that she will be a widow in about a decade, and she almost feels like the sky is going to fall.

Lin Ying didn't speak, but the expression on her face told her that the emperor would have such worries. If the little prince Huan was as old as Princess Rui, the emperor might not be in such a hurry. But after Yuan Yuan married the emperor, he first had two princesses before he had the prince Huan'er.

The little prince Huan in Lin Ying's arms hung his head, looking as if he was playing his own business, but his ears were pricked up, and he listened to Lin Ying and Lin Yan's words word for word, and then fell into his own contemplation.

Lin Ying glanced down at him and gently touched his head.

Lin Yan frowned and pondered, and after a long while, she asked Lin Yingdao: "If the emperor really plans to let Huan'er take over the military power in the northwest in the future, what does the family mean?" ”

Lin Ying smiled and said, "Don't worry, there will be no opinions at home." The Lin family just wants to be a good courtier, worthy of the king and worthy of the people. The Lin family has no intention of rebellion, no matter who holds the military power, as long as it is someone who can take on this responsibility, what does it matter. ”

said and said: "Although the emperor prevents the Lin family's military power from being big, he still likes to use the Lin family, so the Lin family's military power will not be completely lost in the future." What's more, Huan'er's blood also has half of the Lin family's blood, and in the future, the military power will be handed over to Huan'er, and it will not flow into the fields of outsiders, whether it is me or your second uncle, we will strictly obey the emperor's wishes. ”

All he worries about is whether the future crown prince, or the generation of the emperor and grandson, can tolerate the little prince of Huan holding military power.

Lin Yan sighed and didn't say anything more.

These national affairs will never be something that a woman like her can interfere with.

Lin Ying hugged the little prince Huan, shook his hand, and said: "Huan'er is very smart, and he is also interested in martial arts and warfare, teach it well, and he will become a great weapon in the future." ”

Lin Yan sighed and said, "I'd rather he be dull." ”

As he spoke, he touched his belly, not knowing if this one was a prince or a princess, and what he would look like in the future. (To be continued.) )
