Chapter 144: Confidante
Emperor Qingfeng naturally hadn't made up his mind to bring down Lin Zhongchao.
As the only son left by the crown prince, Lin Zhongchao is obviously not inferior to Lin Feng in talent.
In the battle with the Southern Barbarians, Lin Zhongchao and Lin Feng were both newcomers who had never been on the battlefield, but Lin Feng was defeated in a hundred battles, while Lin Zhongchao won a hundred battles.
This is exactly what Emperor Qingfeng values the most.
There are still crises around the Great Ming Dynasty, and there are not many people who can win the war for the country, and Emperor Qingfeng doesn't want to kill all the good generals, and finally end up being killed by foreign races.
Besides, it was obvious that Lin Feng wanted the throne.
Without Lin Zhongchao's containment, Lin Feng would be the dominant family, which was not the result that Emperor Qingfeng wanted.
Emperor Qingfeng also knew that Concubine Xiao Guifei wanted Lin Feng to be the crown prince.
So, he smiled and hugged the beauty's shoulder, his eyes as dark and deep as ancient Tan, "I know how to do it." However, after all, Zhong Chao is my grandson, and I want to punish him first, and then observe it later. ”
This emperor has said so, what else can Concubine Xiao Guifei say?
After going back, Concubine Xiao asked Lin Feng to come over to discuss.
Xiao Guifei said: "The emperor has already seen those twists and turns, and the palace has tried its best to say it, but the emperor still has no intention of getting rid of Lin Zhongchao." ”
Lin Feng said: "If my father knew that Lin Zhongchao had the intention of forcing the palace, he would definitely get rid of him. If we don't want to, we haven't done enough. At the beginning, the crown prince was the biological son of his father, and he offended his father, and his father did not show mercy. ”
Xiao Guifei said: "What help do you need from this palace in this matter, just say it." It's just that Wen Yan, this palace still hopes that you can marry, if there is a daughter-in-law of Imperial Physician Wen in this palace, it is equivalent to having a quality, and this palace can pull Imperial Physician Wen to deal with the slut Sun Guifei. ”
Lin Feng said: "Mother, the child still doesn't understand, Imperial Doctor Wen has no power, so what's the use of the concubine pulling the Wen family?" ”
Xiao Guifei said with a smile: "Don't you know, Imperial Doctor Wen has superb medical skills, and he has won the trust of all the imperial concubines in the harem, and Sun Guifei is even more every time she diagnoses, she can't do it without Sun Guifei." If you can join forces with Imperial Physician Wen, you say, will Concubine Sun Guifei be defeated in the hands of this palace? Also, Imperial Physician Wen's daughter is Concubine Wen, don't look at Concubine Wen as just a concubine, the rank is not high, Concubine Wen has a gentle personality, and she is deeply loved by the emperor. And this Concubine Wen is said to be the most filial, if this palace succeeds in wooing Imperial Doctor Wen, is it equivalent to winning over Concubine Wen? All this seems to be the right to win over Imperial Doctor Wen? ”
Lin Feng said: "The concubine is reasonable, but the son has also been to the Wen family, and Imperial Doctor Wen doesn't seem to be willing to marry the child. There is nothing a child can do. ”
Xiao Guifei said, "Feng'er, why can't you even do this?" The concubine is very disappointed in you. The last time you fought with the Southern Barbarians, you lost every battle and lost most of the people's hearts. This is the emperor, but it is right to have both ability and political integrity! Especially in combat, either don't fight, or if you want to fight, you have to win. ”
Lin Feng was stunned, what does Xiao Guifei mean by this?
Observing Xiao Guifei's expression carefully, Xiao Guifei seemed to dislike him.
Lin Feng smiled coldly, he had long known that Concubine Xiao Guifei was unreliable, and the so-called deep mother-son relationship was just for outsiders to see.
Xiao Guifei united with him, nothing more than valuing him among the princes, and he was the most liked by Emperor Qingfeng. If Emperor Qingfeng doesn't like him anymore, maybe, the first one to turn his back on him is Concubine Xiao.
Fortunately, he has never fully believed in Xiao Guifei, and he has secretly accumulated his own strength over the years, so even if he loses Xiao Guifei's help, he is not afraid now. Especially the men and horses of the Nanda Battalion, Xiao Guifei's younger brother was killed by Zhou Bin, and the Nanda Camp is equivalent to Lin Feng's men and horses. What else can Xiao Guifei dare to fight him.
Thinking like this, Lin Feng smiled faintly, pretending that he would definitely go to the Wen Mansion again, and would definitely make Imperial Doctor Wen agree to marry Wen Yan to Lin Feng, but in fact, in his heart, he didn't take this seriously at all.
The next morning, under the instruction of Lin Feng, Wang Zuowen proposed in public that the emperor should appoint Lin Zhongchao as the crown prince, and also said that the king of Yu was virtuous and popular with the people, and united several military attaches to kneel together.
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.
Emperor Qingfeng was furious on the spot, and he didn't even open the early dynasty, and walked away.
Emperor Qingfeng has not yet expressed his position on this matter, but because he is not in a hurry to express his position, the ministers have begun to stand in line.
Because, if Emperor Qingfeng agreed to make Lin Zhongchao the crown prince, then the ministers would succeed if they followed Lin Zhongchao, and if they didn't follow Lin Zhongchao with Lin Feng, then the result would be suppressed by Lin Zhongchao.
The reverse is also true.
It's up to them to see if they're right or not.
In any case, in this way, the originally calm court has become more and more intense, and there is quite a posture that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.
And soon Zhou Zhengzheng also heard about it from Zhou Jinxuan's mouth.
So, on a breezy morning, Zhou Zhengzheng wore a water-blue Luo skirt with a cuckoo bird on the skirt and came to the door of Yuwang's mansion.
Lin Zhongchao was playing the piano quietly, and when he heard that Zhou Zhengzheng was coming, his eyes lit up.
Others took the initiative to come to the door, and out of politeness, he would not be absent.
Especially her.
When Zhou Zheng came in, he heard the sound of a piano.
Low, like a stream of water, splashing into a deep valley. Like an eagle, reborn before spreading its wings, a sharp pain like cracking bones, and a dull roar.
Zhou Zheng listened for a while and applauded.
Lin Zhongchao raised his eyes.
The applause didn't startle him by a single note, but his heartbeat quickened.
The woman with the blue lotus in her eyes jumped into the corner of her eye, and even his heart warmed a lot.
"I see hope in the sound of your harp, as if I saw the night before dawn." Zhou Zhengzheng said, "It's so good. ”
"Passing the prize." Lin Zhongchao wanted to get up to greet him, but Zhou Zhengzheng said, "Don't get up, you continue to play." ”
Lin Zhongchao was puzzled, but he continued to play obediently.
Zhou Zheng took out a Xiao, put it to his lips, and blew it.
The sound of the piano and the sound of Xiao sounded together, like a double flying swallow, flying freely in the sky.
The burst of music is like two strands, inseparable.
If you didn't understand him very well, you wouldn't have been able to play such a sound as his piano.
Lin Zhongchao couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhengzheng.
Such a girl, in front of his eyes, he can no longer control the movement in his heart, and he can no longer tell himself that he doesn't love her.
He felt his heart sinking, sinking.
Looking at her beauty, he suddenly felt that it was better to live like this for the rest of his life. It's good not to leave her for the rest of your life.
It doesn't matter if he can't take revenge, as long as you are by your side and show a smiling face every day, it's good.
However, the piano stopped.
It was his hand, which cut the strings, and the strings broke.
Blood, from his fingers, dripped on the strings.
All of a sudden, his heart returned to reality.
Zhou Zheng also stopped his voice.
The air is coming to a halt.
