Chapter 961: Concessions

"Grandpa, you're looking for me. ”

Lin Ze smiled and walked into Lin Renquan's room, he thought that Lin Renquan wanted to talk to him about the 10 million gambling money.

The Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng lost 10 million gold coins to himself in yesterday's martial arts competition, such a large sum of money, let the Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng take it out, it will definitely be very heartbroken, so Lin Ze thought that Lin Renquan was looking for himself now to talk about the matter of this 10 million gold coins.

It's just that Lin Ze has already made a decision in his heart that he must get this 10 million gold coins, because he needs this money to resettle the millions of displaced people who appeared because of the Qingzhou rebellion, and he needs this 10 million gold coins to develop industries and find a way for these millions of displaced people to survive.

Besides, Lin Ze didn't believe that Yan Yucheng, the seventh prince of the Seventh Prince, would not be able to take out the 10 million gold coins, so he had already made up his mind in his heart, and he was going to make up his mind for the 10 million gold coins.

Lin Ze couldn't have imagined that six million of the nine million gambling money he had obtained in the gambling house before belonged to Yan Yucheng, the seventh prince, so now it was really difficult to let Yan Yucheng come up with another 10 million gold coins.

Yan Yucheng really wants to come up with another 10 million gold coins, he will really have to cut back on food and clothing in the next few years, and his strength can maintain his current appearance, which is considered the best.

If he hadn't been forced to this point, Yan Yucheng, the Seventh Prince, would not have been bold enough to assassinate Lin Ze directly.

Yan Yucheng knew very well what the consequences would be after he assassinated Lin Ze, but he had no choice.

If he didn't kill Lin Ze, Yan Yucheng would have to pay Lin Ze 10 million gold coins, even if he wanted to repay the debt, because Emperor Yan Hao was a witness to this gamble, and before leaving, he specially instructed Yan Yucheng to compensate Lin Ze in full.

Yan Yucheng compensated Lin Ze for 10 million gold coins, then in the next two or three years, his strength will be greatly limited, there is not enough money to maintain, the strength of Yan Yucheng's subordinates will drop significantly, not all of them are willing to work for Yan Yucheng for free.

A large part of the strength of Yan Yucheng's subordinates is maintained by relying on a large amount of money.

The best example of this is the current Yellow Dragon Legion.

Why did the Yellow Dragon Legion listen to Yan Yucheng, one is that most of the commanders and generals in it were born in Confucianism, and the second reason is that Yan Yucheng paid a lot of money.

Without a large amount of money invested, even the commander of the Yellow Dragon Legion and most of the generals still obeyed Yan Yucheng's orders, but the soldiers below were not good.

As a soldier eats food, since he has participated in the army, it is a matter of course to receive a salary, not to mention that these soldiers are all quasi-warriors or warriors, so their salaries are even higher.

Yan Yucheng did not pay the salary for a month or two months, or only paid half of the previous salary, or two-thirds of the salary, and there would be no problem.

However, if in the next two or three years, the salary of the Yellow Dragon Legion will be like this, and most of the soldiers in it will definitely be gone.

They came to join the army because they were paid a lot of money, but now you can only give them a very low salary.

If this matter is like this for all the armies of Chu State, then most of these soldiers will not say anything, and they will just endure it, but only their Yellow Dragon Legion is like this, and it is strange that the soldiers inside can endure it.

At that time, there will definitely be large-scale turmoil in the Yellow Dragon Legion, and then, other princes and emperors will reach out, so where can Yan Yucheng still be able to control the Yellow Dragon Legion.

You must know that the Yellow Dragon Legion is the most powerful trump card in Yan Yucheng's hand, if this card is lost, then where is it possible for Yan Yucheng to get on the throne in the future.

Therefore, in order to maintain the Yellow Dragon Legion, Yan Yucheng definitely did not want to give this 10 million gold coins.

Kill Lin Ze, all these worries will not exist, although Yan Yucheng will face the full force of Emperor Yan Hao and the Hou Mansion at that time, and the other princes will also inherit the beating of the water dogs, but his Yellow Dragon Legion will be saved.

And as long as the Yellow Dragon Legion is still in the hands of Yan Yucheng, coupled with the strength of Confucianism, Yan Yucheng will not have a chance to turn the tables in the future.

On the one hand, he lost the Yellow Dragon Legion after paying Lin Ze 10 million gold coins, and it is impossible to get involved in the throne in the future, and on the other hand, he killed Lin Ze, although he will be targeted by the emperor, the Hou Mansion, and other princes in the future, and he needs to shrink his head to be a turtle for many years, but he still has the bargaining chips to turn the tables, and he will have a chance to ascend to the throne in the future.

Of the two choices, as long as you are not a fool, you will know how to choose.

"Sit down!" Lin Renquan looked at Lin Ze with a smile on his face, he was now more and more satisfied with this grandson.

Not only in terms of military ability, it is stronger than him, but also stronger than him in terms of his own cultivation, which makes Lin Renquan very satisfied in his heart, even when he is sleeping, he is still smiling.

For Lin Renquan, what could be better than having an heir who is more promising and capable than him.

"Thank you, grandpa. Lin Ze quickly found a seat and sat down.

In this room, in addition to Lin Renquan, there are two brothers, Lin Yizhi and Lin Yiqing.

Seeing that these two people were also there, Lin Ze thought in his heart that his previous thoughts were not wrong.

However, soon, Lin Ze was slapped in the face.

"Xuan'er, did your mother tell you about the He family?" Lin Renquan said on the side.

The content of the words was not expected to be a matter of 10 million gold coins, but a matter of the He family.

"What family?" Lin Ze's face was full of doubts, and he really couldn't remember it for a while.

"It's the He family that you married since you were a child. Lin Yizhi on the side couldn't help but remind.

"Oh, it's this He family!" Lin Ze suddenly thought about it.

A few days ago, Shi Fangying told him about related things, and He Yuting, the third lady of the He family, was indeed married to Lin Lixuan from a young finger.

"No, grandpa, isn't this He Yuting already engaged, mother said, there is still a month to get married, is there something wrong now?" Lin Ze asked speechlessly.

He also thought that after seeing his strength, the He family regretted his engagement with the Liu family who was engaged before, and wanted to marry He Yuting to himself here.

"Grandpa, let me first affirm that if this He family regrets marriage again and wants to marry that He Yuting to me, I will never agree. Lin Ze said categorically.

The marriage of the He family is Lin Lixuan's, not his Lin Ze's, if the He family has been waiting for Lin Lixuan before, then everything is okay, Lin Ze's is after all to take Lin Lixuan, although it was taken after Lin Lixuan's death, but Lin Ze still has to be responsible for everything Lin Lixuan has in this world, so at that time, Lin Ze will definitely give the He family an explanation.

Even if you can't give He Yuting the identity of a wife, the identity of a flat wife is still okay.

However, what is terrible is that this He Yuting is already engaged, and the He family has been in conflict with the Hou Mansion before, so Lin Ze doesn't want to marry the third lady of the He family.

"Don't worry, do you think grandpa is such a person who is easy to be fooled, the He family wants to abide by the marriage contract from the beginning, but the anger in grandpa's heart has not disappeared!" He Wenquan said angrily.

"No, then after you are angry, you are still ready to let me marry the third lady of the He family. Lin Ze would not be fooled, and immediately heard the hidden meaning of He Wenquan's words.

"Cough cough cough ......." He Wenquan was choked directly, and then looked at Lin Ze helplessly.

Before, he was still happy that he had such a smart grandson, but now, Lin Renquan felt a little self-inflicted.

"Grandpa, you really think like this!" Lin Ze asked with a look of disbelief, Lin Renquan's embarrassed appearance just now had already explained the problem.

"This ...... , this ........" Lin Renquan's face was very embarrassed.

"Xuan'er, you also know that He Wenquan is the head of the household department, and he is in charge of the money of the entire imperial court, so if he can fall to our side, it will help us a lot. Lin Renquan said with a sincere face.

The household department can be said to be the most important department in the imperial court, don't look at him below the official department, but when it comes to the importance of the imperial court, the household department is more important.

In the past, the household department was also in the emperor's control, but now the emperor can only control less than half of the rights of the household department, so if He Wenquan can be brought over, then the emperor will be able to control all the household departments, which is extremely important to the emperor.

As a diehard loyalist of the emperor, what Lin Renquan will do, it is obvious.

"Grandpa......." Lin Ze looked displeased, and wanted to say something.

However, Lin Renquan shook his hand at Lin Ze, preventing him from continuing.

"Xuan'er, I have already discussed with your mother, the sixth lady of the He family will only become your equal wife, the identity of the main wife, just as you said, give it to Shaman, Xuan'er, grandpa has already given in. "Lin Renquan looked at Lin Ze with a look that I had already given in, and you Lin Ze should also give in.

"This ........" Lin Ze really hesitated at this moment.

"Xuan'er, grandpa did this for the sake of your reputation. Grandpa knows that you have an opinion on the He family, not only if you have an opinion on the He family, but also if you don't agree to the marriage of the He family, Xuan'er, your marriage will have a big problem.

Xuan'er, after all, you have been marrying Miss He Family Sixth since you were a child, if you marry Shaman directly, then the He family will directly tell this matter, saying that you, Lin Lixuan, abandoned Miss He Family and married someone else for the sake of wealth and wealth, Xuan'er, your reputation will be completely ruined. Others won't know the details of this, they will only know that it's you Lin Ze who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and doesn't want to marry the young lady of the He family, and when the time comes, Xuan'er, you will be notorious. Xuan'er, reputation is very important!" Lin Renquan said with a serious face.
