Chapter 371: Action
☆★☆★☆★
The third prince, Xiao Ke, was also worried at this time.
He was really worried, in a dilemma, and he didn't know how to choose.
The staff's accounts are mixed.
Some people advised him to forbear, and those who seek great things must hold their breath.
Someone persuaded him to give it a go, but the second prince and the party were pressing step by step, if they continued to forbearance and retreat, I am afraid that there would be no possibility of turning over.
They all made sense, each with its own reasons, and he didn't know who to listen to.
"Third prince, now everyone is waiting for the emperor's punishment of Concubine Jing to determine the direction of the court, but you can't sit still, if you really have to wait until the emperor makes a decision, we will lose completely."
"The third prince, Wei Chen feels that there is something strange about this matter, these things that have happened recently are by no means a coincidence, it is likely that someone deliberately forced you to make a move, now the enemy is dark and I am clear, and it is the best policy to brake quietly, you can't be led by the nose!"
"Three princes, in this situation, those people in the He family have long been eyeing each other, Weichen heard that the emperor has been exhausted and sick in bed recently, Concubine Jing was beaten into the cold palace, and the queen has no weight, this whole harem is not the world of Duan Guifei, if she takes advantage of the name of serving the illness to be unfavorable to the emperor, or even forces the emperor to make an edict, what will you fight for at that time? Taking advantage of the fact that the palace is not yet controlled by the forces of the He family, taking the initiative to attack is the king! ”
As soon as these words came out, the face of the third prince Xiao Ke really wavered.
Seeing this, the staff member took advantage of the victory to pursue, "Besides, you have been holding back all these years, but what is the result in the end?" It's not that he was forced to lose generals one after another, but fortunately, this military has not been shaken in the slightest, but it has attracted several waves of forces, which also shows that the third prince is the true dragon son of heaven, and even the heavens are blessed, such a good time. If not, when will you wait? ”
"Wen Yu! What is your heart? actually instigated the three princes to commit such a thing as heaven and earth destruction, and disregarded human ethics! Even if the third prince wants to ascend to that high position, he should be above board, otherwise he will only be scolded by the world in the future! ”
Wen Yu is the one who replaced Cao Zhijing's household department.
When he heard this, he smiled disdainfully, "Mr. Zeng is very good-natured, but I don't know if you can continue to say these words when someone puts a knife on your neck!" ”
"You!"
"The third prince, people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves, now is not the time to hesitate and relent! Moreover, Weichen recently heard a message from Lingyun Temple. If this reaches the ears of the emperor, the storage position of the second prince will be a sure thing! Wen Yu threw another punch.
Sure enough, Xiao Ke's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "What words?" ”
Wei Chen doesn't remember the specific words, but the general meaning is ...... The unmarried wife of the second prince, that is, the fourth girl of the Marquis of Jian'an, is the destiny of helping the dragon to fly to the sky, whoever she marries, who can ascend the throne! ”
"What?" The faces of the three princes and the other staff members present all changed.
Wen Yu said in a deep voice: "The prophecy of Lingyun Temple has always been extremely effective, can the third prince still remember the landslide in the east a year ago?" Isn't it because the Mingyi Master of Lingyun Temple saved the Queen Mother's life because he knew it too much? ”
Who knows if this sentence is a deliberate rumor. Disturb the Sacred Heart! ”
"Yes, you also said that it disturbed the Sacred Heart, so whether this sentence is true or not, the emperor knows. There must be some consideration, and it gave Duan Guifei an excuse to plot wrong! What's more, as far as I can see, it's even worse if this sentence is false. It shows that the second prince is not as indifferent to the storage position as he shows, he has long been eyeing that high position, so he will buy the Mingyi Master of Lingyun Temple at this juncture to create this public opinion to help him! ”
Xiao Ke was furious. Standing up, he scolded: "I already knew that Xiao Huan was not a good thing!" On weekdays, he pretends to be high and disdainful, and it turns out that he is also a chaotic minister and thief who harbors evil intentions! ”
These words scolded him himself, and the staff couldn't help coughing.
Xiao Ke also ignored it, and the case was concluded, "Just follow what Wen Qing said!" Take action now! ”

Lin Zhaoyan was lying on the door panel and listened to the movement outside, feeling that the guards and maids guarding them had disappeared, and knew that the time was ripe.
It had been seven days, and she had waited too long, and if this moment did not come again, her faith would be shattered.
"Father, mother, we can escape."
Lin Chen and Xu Wanru didn't show joy, but said worriedly: "Zhao'er, are you sure?" Don't do it again like last time. ”
The last time they said was five days ago, Lin Zhaoyan expected that the emperor would come to her according to the day agreed with Master Jingyi, and was about to arrange for Lin Chen and Xu Wanru to hide first, but they were caught by the leader of the Praetorian Guard, but he didn't deal with them, only glanced at her deeply and left.
However, the guards outside the gate were strengthened.
A whole Praetorian Guard.
Lin Zhaoyan didn't know how he could work so many elite guards, but he broke off the idea of running away again.
She thought that when she could escape, the man would naturally let her go safely.
Since then, she has stayed in Huanyue Xuan in peace, and there are maids to bring food every day, and she has lived quite comfortably.
Lin Chen and Xu Wanru were different, they didn't know what was going on, when they thought of so many Praetorian guards guarding the door, they felt that the road ahead was gloomy, especially when they heard that the emperor was angry and fell ill in the court, they were even more panicked.
After all, Lin Chen had been dealing with Prince Xiao secretly for nearly ten years, and when he felt the strange atmosphere in the palace, he knew that things were not good.
He kept his face calm all day long, Xu Wanru saw it, and his mood was heavy, and he didn't smile anymore.
She is not afraid of death, she is afraid that she will affect Lin Zhaoyan.
Lin Zhaoyan knew what they were thinking, and he didn't want to explain more, so he just nodded firmly, "Well, I promise, there is no one outside, let's not leave, and when the people come, it will be too late." ”
What she was referring to was Su Wen, but Lin Chen and Xu Wanru thought that they were sent by the emperor to kill them, so they immediately changed their faces and nodded again and again, "Okay!" ”
Lin Zhaoyan smiled at them reassuringly, "Don't worry, it's okay." After saying that, he helped them out one by one.
As he walked to the door, the door, which had been closed tightly for the past few days, was suddenly pushed open.
A low "squeak" sound sounded in the empty room, Lin Zhaoyan's heart tightened, and he looked up in a panic, only to see a dazzling red, dazzling in the backlight.
"Fourth sister, where are you going?" The soft and soft voice sounded softly, but the tone was as emotionless as a pool of stagnant water.
It's Lin Xingyan!
Lin Zhaoyan's heart jumped, and an ominous premonition rose from the bottom of his heart.
Intuition told her that Lin Xingyan came over at this time, and there must be nothing good.
She subconsciously took Lin Chen and them back a few steps.
"Fourth sister, what are you hiding?" The red also stepped forward after him, and the dazzling sunlight faded, and Lin Zhaoyan saw her appearance clearly.
I haven't seen her for a long time, she has faded away from her childhood, her facial features are becoming more and more delicate and bewitching, her oblique eyes, her pointed chin, her whole person is much thinner, and she is wearing a wide red silver embroidered hundred butterflies and sixteen heald skirts, which looks weak and charming, and vulnerable.
Lin Zhaoyan knew that these were just appearances, because she saw the bitter hatred in her eyes, the hatred that wanted to crush them all.
Her heart tightened.
Lin Chen was also stunned.
He hadn't seen his young daughter for a long time, and now he saw him again, as if he didn't know her.
Is this charming and seductive woman in front of him still the clever and likable, delicate and lovely little daughter he used to be?
Obviously, he was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, but the darkness in his eyes made his scalp tingle and his heart tightened.
How did his daughter become like this?
"Okay, okay......" Lin Chen said in a trembling voice.
Lin Xingyan turned his gaze to him, and a little smile finally appeared on his face, which had been expressionless, but it was even more penetrating, "Father, you have finally come to see me." ”
Lin Chen didn't know why his nose was sour, and subconsciously stepped forward, "Okay, you are good, this palace is not a good place, will my father take you with you?" ”
"Let's go?" Lin Xingyan was stunned, as if he couldn't react to Lin Chen's meaning, "Can I still go?" ”
"Yes, naturally!" Lin Chen nodded again and again, and reached out to pull Lin Xingyan's hand, "Okay, don't be afraid, it's okay, there is a father." ”
Lin Xingyan looked at Lin Chen in a daze, and only after half a sound did he withdraw his hand and smile sadly, "I can't go, father, I can't go, I ...... There's no going back. ”
Lin Chen was stunned.
Lin Xingyan looked at him again and "giggled" and laughed, smiling and smiling, tears oozed from his eyes, "Father, why are you only here now?" Xing'er lives so hard, Xing'er has always wanted you to save me, but you forgot me, you forgot my daughter, you abandoned me, you don't want me anymore, I waited for a long time, but no one wants me, father, it's too late, it's too late now. ”
Lin Chen was startled, thinking that Lin Xingyan was a demon barrier, so he stepped forward to grab her hand, "Okay......"
"Father, be careful!" Lin Zhaoyan quickly pulled Lin Chen over.
I saw that between the lightning and flint, a sharp dagger shining with cold light was taken out of Lin Xingyan's sleeve and pierced into the air in front of him without hesitation.
And that position was exactly where Lin Chen was standing.
Just a little bit, just a little bit......
Lin Xingyan glared at Lin Zhaoyan angrily.
Lin Zhaoyan was stunned, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Lin Xingyan, you are crazy!" ”
(To be continued......)
