Chapter Eighty-Seven: An Undercurrent Swells

Han Kui, who was at the end of his sight, was also stared at by Lin Yuyan's almost malicious eyes, and when he was about to ask Lin Yuyan what he meant, he was asked by Lin Yuyan in advance: "Does Han Zi know Lao Tzu?" ”

Han Kui's eyebrows were slightly raised, as if he was puzzled by what the sixth son of the emperor said about Lao Tzu at this time, but Han Kui still replied seriously: "Lao Tzu is the founding master of the Taoist school, and the Confucian sage Confucius has greeted Lao Tzu several times and asked for Taoism. ”

When Lin Yuyan heard Han Kui's answer, he also smiled maliciously: "Then Han Zi has ever heard a sentence in "Lao Tzu": The wood of the hug is born in the end of the millennium; The nine-story platform starts from the soil; Great oaks from little acorns grow.. ”

Han Kui nodded, indicating that he knew.

Lin Yuyan asked again: "What is your opinion?" ”

Han Kui thought for a while, and then replied: "The true meaning." ”

Lin Yuyan couldn't stop smiling on his face, and looked at Han Kui with a straight look in his eyes and said: "Han Zi, I think that Wuguo is the wood of this hug, the nine-story platform, and Han Zi's journey of a thousand miles, why can't he start with a single step in this thorny sun that is not tired?" Although Thorn Yang is not able to satisfy Han Zi's ability to govern the country, it is also a stage that Han Zi can use as a stage, so as to reach the court of Wuguo! ”

Lin Yuyan's words were heart-wrenching, even Han Zi had to say that he was a little moved by what he said, but Han Kui has always been cautious and thoughtful, although Lin Yuyan said it movingly, it was not able to make Han Kui agree immediately.

Seeing that Han Kui was in a state of thought, Lin Yuyan was not in a hurry, let Han Kui think enough.

"This matter must be discussed again when we go back to Wancheng." After a long time, Han Kui said this.

Lin Yuyan nodded, Han Kui is a virtuous person, Lin Yuyan has his own ideas about Thorn Yang, if he persecuts Han Kui too much, it will not be beautiful.

Lin Yuyan immediately saluted Han Kui with a bucket of wine, which was considered to be the case.

At the celebration banquet, although Lin Yuyan said that he would be held accountable along with the reward for his military exploits, but now the old clan at this celebration banquet can be regarded as following Lin Yuyan to quell the bandits, and there is no merit and hard work.

Therefore, at this time, Lin Yuyan is not good at pursuing anything, and all he can do now is to promise a reward for the Shuyang Army, and as for the rest, Lin Yuyan will also let the Thornyang City Order manage it again in the future.

Today's Thorn Yang Ling City Order should be difficult to renew because of the loss of the bandits, and Lin Yuyan is optimistic about Han Kui, who is about to seek help from Wu Guo.

After figuring it out, Lin Yuyan was not entangled, and immediately faced the soldiers with a smile, and drank a few wines.

These drinks were dug out of the cellar of the old clan in Jianyang, and the pale yellow taste was slightly bitter, but the strength of the wine was not small, Lin Yuyan was not strong enough to drink, and after drinking a few wines, he was a little drunk.

……

This time, the battle exploits of the thorny yang bandits to quell need to wait for the Yang Ling Yingde to hand over together, and then sort it out to report to Wancheng.

As for what Lin Yuyan promised, it will also be handed over along with the battle report, and then these war exploits will be rewarded in the name of the court in Wancheng.

What Lin Yuyan didn't expect was that Wancheng was conspiring a weakening strategy against the sixth son of the emperor with the Zongfu as the core.

The chief eunuch Gao Jin took the book from the people under his hand, spread it out and glanced at it, his face changed greatly, he walked to Emperor Wu's side, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, those people want to take action against His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince......

Hearing this, Emperor Wu put down the ink pen in his hand, raised his head, looked at the gate of the Xuanzheng Palace, and asked, "Has there been any movement in Wancheng recently?" ”

Gao Jin shook his head and said, "There is a general guarding Wancheng, and those people are not good at messing around......"

Emperor Wu nodded: "Since they sent someone to secretly contact the Zongfu, I am afraid that they have no intention of dying, the old clan is the pillar of the Wu Kingdom after all, even if it is jealous, it cannot be put on the surface, the old clan believes in the patriarchal law after all......"

Gao Jin shook his head, relieved Emperor Wu and said: "Your Majesty, even if it is the princes of the Central Plains, it is also the collapse of etiquette, and the patriarchal system is not the patriarchal system of Ji Zhoushi after all, besides, haven't they also left the Wu Kingdom for nearly thirty years, and the clan has sealed their imperial records, and it is difficult to say whether the old clan can remember them......

Hearing this, Emperor Wu leaned back on his chair and said slowly: "After all, it was I who robbed him of the throne......

When it comes to such royal secrets, even if Gao Jin is the chief eunuch who has accompanied Emperor Wu for decades, it is not easy to say anything, and then he stands quietly around Emperor Wu, smiling and silent.

Emperor Wu finally said: "Keep an eye on the clan and the old clan, and if the situation changes, notify the general to act cheaply." ”

Gao Jin on the side also nodded and responded.

At the end of August, Lin Yuyan returned to Wancheng with the guards, and the influence of the bandits in Jianyang gradually disappeared.

As for the truth, it is known to the scholars, who were originally a little excited that the sixth son of the emperor would be able to calm down the bandits, but he was indeed gradually worried because of the rumors in Wancheng in recent days.

His Royal Highness, the sixth son of the emperor, will actually suppress the old clan!

The scholars who learned the news had no intention of expecting the sixth son of the emperor, and were replaced by a strong sense of jealousy.

Even Lin Yuyan's second brother Gongzi Xin also had thoughts about these rumors, and he would rather believe them, but not believe them.

Is this crazy?! Dare to confiscate the land of the old clan of Thornyang?!

Gongzixin also got the exact news, and prepared to say that the "letter party" that supports Gongzixin is the majority of the old clans, and the power and relationship of the old clans in the clan are complicated, even if the news that the old clans don't want to be known by Gongzixin will be transmitted to Gongzixin's desk through various channels.

Bian Ji, as Gongzixin's most trusted guest now, also dealt with various thorny issues for Gongzixin: "Your Highness, after all, this matter involves the interests of the old clan, if Your Highness is too partial, I'm afraid it will chill the other party's heart......"

The implication of Bian Ji's words is to promise to Gongzi that he must not be too partial to the sixth son of the emperor, otherwise the old clan may deviate from Gongzi's faith.

Gongzixin didn't understand the pros and cons, and immediately waved his hand to Wang Meng, a staff member in the house, and instructed: "The congratulatory gifts for the sixth don't have to be sent in a hurry, and besides, the people on our side don't have to rush to get too close to the sixth during this time......"

Gongzi Xin paused, as if he felt that it was inappropriate, and after thinking about it, he said again: "Write a brief copy of the pros and cons of this matter, give it to the sixth child, and send someone to send it secretly!" ”

Wang Meng responded.

Seeing this, Gongzixin also put down a boulder in his heart, but then he sent a very bad news, that is, several doctors in the court, Shangqing went to the house of the eldest son, Lin Yuren.

Suddenly, Gongzixin's face fell.

Since the deliberations of the Xun Dynasty were yin by the second and sixth children, and all the hole cards were lost, the life of the eldest son Lin Yuren was not easy.

Not to mention that the filial piety outside is gone, even the mansion is facing an embarrassing situation where no one is available, and I never expected that early in the morning, several doctors who have some right to speak in the court came to the mansion.

Although these people are not as good as the three ministers of the inner court and the six doctors of the outer court in the court, they have real power in the local area. But it's not too much, because most of them are from the old clans of the Wu Kingdom.

These people, in the past, Lin Yuren didn't want to win over, but there was no need for people to participate in the struggle for the throne to gain benefits, and being born in an old clan is enough to explain everything.

Even the eldest son, Lin Yuren, did not dare to persecute these people too much.

Lin Yuren was surprised, and naturally asked these people about their intentions, but he never expected that it would be because the sixth whale swallowed the land of the old clan of Jianyang.

The land of the old clan of Jianyang, Lin Yuren roughly calculated, millions of acres of land output, the sixth child's appetite this time is really not small.

However, I am afraid that the things of the old clan will not be so easy to occupy, the sixth has not returned to Wancheng, these old clans are jumping up and down, and when the sixth comes back, I am afraid that the old clan will have to make trouble.

However, Lin Yuren didn't care at all, who let the sixth child be the second person, the current matter just made Lin Yuren make a big fuss, thinking of this, Lin Yuren said to the old clans with a look of gains and losses: "I look at this matter, there must be the instructions of the second child......"

Lin Yuren was just right to lead the trouble, and the old clans present were chattering.

"I'm afraid that the fertile land of Thorn Yang, without Gongzixin behind him, the sixth son of the emperor will not be able to eat it!"

"The old man thinks that it was Gongzi Xin who fell in love with the old clan Tian Property of Thorn Yang, so he pushed the sixth son of the emperor out!"

"Anyway, the sixth son of the emperor is a "believer" in the party after all......

"This matter is indispensable to the shadow of Gongzi's letter, so I and the other old clans jointly ask the eldest son for his life and give justice to the old clan of Jianyang!"

Listening to the old clan once again lead the topic to himself, during this time, Lin Yuren has also learned a little smarter, and will no longer simply use these old clans as gunmen, and then looked at the old clan, and said with a slight turn of his eyes: "The princes don't know, since they were framed by the second child and lost their ministers, above the court, the words of this son have no weight." ”

Hearing this, the old clans who came to the eldest son all looked at each other, and then saluted Lin Yuren and said, "Our old clan is willing to make a strong name in the court for His Royal Highness!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuren didn't seem to be listening, and his right index finger kept tapping on the table.

Seeing this, everyone in the old clan also understood that the eldest son did not see the rabbit and did not scatter the eagle this time, and then one of them thought about it, and then stepped forward and said to Lin Yuren: "Your Highness, we are willing to persuade the clan elders to ask the sect to return the staff and guards of the eldest son to His Highness's mansion......

Sure enough, the eldest son, Lin Yuren, who heard this, was moved, and then said: "Since the princes treat this son like this, how can this son not repay the favor?!" ”
