Lin Ruo raised his eyes, looked at the prince, and said slowly: "Your Highness thinks that in this world, how many people repay grievances with virtue?" What is the person who repays virtue with resentment? ”
The prince frowned slightly: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Lin Ruo ignored the prince's displeasure, and continued to say to himself: "Repaying grievances with virtue, the actions of saints, looking at the world, but there are few, and you may not be able to pick one in ten thousand miles." You can complain about virtue, but it abounds, and it is not difficult to find. Can Your Highness agree? ”
The prince smiled coldly: "So what? ”
"Since His Royal Highness also thinks so, it is even more important to help Sister Qing seek justice."
Lin Ruo's dark eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky, but she didn't continue to follow her words, and took a step forward, lowered her voice slightly, and asked, "Your Highness, can Minhui really be here, outspoken?" ”
The prince was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and still invited Lin Ruo to the study to discuss in detail. Although this is the East Palace, although his mother promised that the East Palace will not be mixed with other people's fine works, he thinks it is better to be careful.
The door of the study was not shut, lest any gossip spread. But the one guarding the door is the prince's henchmen who are completely relieved, as long as they don't raise their voices to speak, they can't hear anything at this distance.
The prince sat down and said, "Now I can speak." ”
Lin Ruo smiled faintly: "Then Minhui will be blunt, if there is anything inappropriate, please ask His Highness Haihan." ”
The prince did not answer, bowed slightly, and agreed to her request.
The corners of Lin Ruo's mouth hooked, and he said slowly: "Although His Royal Highness is the crown prince, he has always been constrained by King Ye and feels that he is in a dangerous position, so he ......"
"You've been so direct?" The prince interrupted Lin Ruo's words in a cold voice, and there was a fierce killing intent in his eyes. The battle for the throne between him and King Ye, although everyone in the court and harem is well known, no one has ever said it so bluntly in front of him, and it is still a woman. The woman in front of her is really daring! Was she really as straightforward as she said she was, or was she sure that he wouldn't dare kill her?
Looking at the prince's gaze as if he was facing a great enemy, Lin Ruo sneered and laughed: "Didn't Your Highness agree, will Hai Han be outspoken?" ”
The prince's deep gaze stared at Lin Ruo: "You're too outspoken, aren't you?" ”
"Wise people don't speak dark, do they?" Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, "You are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appointed by the emperor, you have sacrificed to the Taimiao, announced to the world, he will ascend the throne as the emperor one day, and his name is justified, what is there to be afraid of talking about these?" It's King Ye who should be afraid! ”
The crown prince shook his head helplessly, although what Lin Ruo said was true, but when Emperor Mingzong was in power, he talked about these things wantonly, which was also a big disrespectful thing. But looking at Lin Ruoqing's eyes, it seemed to be saying a very obvious fact.
The prince didn't know how to answer her for a while, so he could only frown and be silent.
Lin Ruo didn't care either, and said to himself: "Your Highness is in the position of the crown prince, so he naturally knows better than anyone that this road to the highest position is full of thorns and reefs, and if you are not careful, you will be crushed. So you are cautious and suspicious, and there are understandable circumstances. But has Your Highness ever thought that the same is true for others? ”
"What you said ......" The prince didn't fully comprehend the meaning of Lin Ruo's words for a while, and asked questions.
Lin Ruo didn't hide it, and said calmly: "Jingping Hou Su Mansion." The reason why His Royal Highness Liqing's sister is the crown princess is that the military power in the hands of Marquis Su of Jingping and Su Muchen, the former son, right? It's just that the son died young in the previous life, Bo Yu was cynical again, there was no successor to the Jingping Marquis's Mansion, although the old marquis was still relied on in the court, but His Royal Highness had already given birth to a contemptuous heart, so he set up Shen Shangshu's concubine as a side concubine. ”
"What did Su Boyu tell you?" The prince raised his eyebrows, he didn't believe that Lin Ruo, a woman, could see his mind so thoroughly, Murong Chong would not say this to her, Lin Qian is a businessman, and the Lin family has never been involved in political affairs, the only possibility is Su Muyu, who knows both the Su family and the news of the prince's mansion, and the most important thing is that Lin Ruo and Su Muyu have a close relationship, which is well known to everyone in Bian'an City.
Lin Ruo didn't deny it, anyway, she didn't want to show too much in front of the prince, making him feel that he was instructed by Su Fu to say this, and it was not a big deal, after all, Su Fu also had some complaints about the prince's approach.
"Your Highness, to tell you the truth, you are justified in doing this. But before you became the great treasure, you first allowed Concubine Shen to be contemptuous of the crown princess, which made people have a handle to criticize. Even in ordinary people's homes, the matter of spoiling a concubine and killing his wife will be blamed by someone poking his backbone, let alone being the crown prince of the dynasty? ”
The crown prince sighed: "Minhui, since you confide in me directly, I don't have to hide anything from you. You are Brother Chong's concubine, and you don't have to call me 'Your Highness', just like Brother Chong, just call me second brother. ”
Lin Ruo was stunned for a moment and bowed slightly, but finally called out "Second Emperor Brother".
The prince nodded: "Minhui, you are still young and don't understand the complexities. I know that if you do this, Marquis Jingping will feel uncomfortable, but the Shen family is not a fuel-efficient lamp! Besides, I owe something to Wanyi, so I ......"
The prince's voice was a little helpless, Su Muqing had lost a child, and Shen Wanyi had also lost a child. It's just that the difference is that Su Muqing's child died unexpectedly, while the child in Shen Wanyi's womb was beaten down by his young presumptuous and avoidant son! Thinking of that day many years ago, the blood clot floating in the basin made him feel uneasy.
But just when the prince was in mourning, a clear voice of inquiry came from his ears:
"Second Emperor Brother thinks that the Rongwang Mansion, the Su Mansion and the Lin Mansion together are no match for the Shen family?"
The prince's eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
Rongwangfu, Sufu, Linfu......
Although Li Chang fell into the grief of the past, it was not that he did not hear Lin Ruo's words clearly. But for Lin Ruo's expression, which was still as calm as water, he was not sure for a while whether what he heard and what Lin Ruo wanted to say was the same meaning. There are some things that can only be said once, and Li Chang, as the crown prince, certainly understands this. How credible is a promise that can be easily made from the mouth of a woman? Regardless of whether Murong Chong and Marquis Jingping were determined to stand on his side, even if it was the Lin family, it would not be Lin Ruo's turn to call the shots.
Lin Ruo still looked calm and composed, indifferent to the prince's scrutiny and judgment, his eyes were calm and fearless, which made the prince even more unable to distinguish the truth and purpose of her words.
The prince's eyes were deep, but his mind kept circling:
Shen Di is a scholar of the household department, and he has been dealing with the wealthy businessmen in Bian'an City all the year round, although the risk is higher, it can still be regarded as the prince's money bag, but if it is compared with the Lu family under King Ye, he is inferior.
Although Shen Di's eldest son and youngest son were not outstanding in the court, his second son was one of the most outstanding young generals under Zhennan Hou, brave and good at fighting, and was deeply appreciated by Emperor Mingzong, of course, compared with Murong Chong, there was still a difference of thousands of miles.
In terms of the status of the court, the three fathers and sons of Shen Di's family are no match for a Marquis of Jingping.
