Chapter 599: Burning Fire
Seeing that Situ Wuji didn't pick up, Yu Muchuan said a little hesitantly: "I heard that when Situ Taishi was in charge of the Imperial Capital Academy before, the group of Wenchen in the court were all students from your academy, and they would go to your house every year to pay their respects. 【Full text reading】When the time comes, ......"
Before Yu Muchuan finished speaking, Situ Wuji immediately picked up the conversation and said with a meaningful face: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, we are not outsiders now, so let's tell the truth! At that time, I was the head of the civil ministers, and they all came to talk to me, nothing more than for their official promotion, but what do you think is the situation now?"
"Taishi means ......" Yu Muchuan looked at Situ Wuji with understanding and said hesitantly.
"Lao Chen, to put it bluntly, you see that after I lost power, a few more officials came to visit Lao Chen? Didn't they all turn their heads to slap you? In the same way, now that the military power is in your hands, where do they remember who Lin Hai is?" Situ Wuji finished speaking loudly, but there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows.
Since being removed by Yu Shaoxi, those officials who used to tie up with themselves have turned their guns and changed their targets, either running to hug the thighs of the Lin family, or becoming Yu Muchuan's supporters. Originally, the Situ Mansion, which was full of people and traffic every day, is now just a decoration. Every time Situ Wuji thinks about it, he can't help but sigh that the world is impermanent and people are cold.
"Taishi's words do have some truth! It seems that this palace is too worried, and he is not experienced in this area, so he will have to ask Situ Taishi more in the future!" Yu Muchuan nodded in surrender, and had a little more admiration for Situ Wuji. If he hadn't mentioned it, he would have had to go through a lot of trouble.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won the award, and the old minister just has a little personal experience!" Situ Wuji cheered up, moderated at the right time, and his mood also changed from sadness to complacency: Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, now our Situ Wuji is standing on the Jinluan Palace again, and it is higher than the previous position, you villains who tend to be inflammatory, are you surprised?
The two of them have made a decision, they are in a happy mood, and they all feel that the world is in my hands when they talk and laugh, and they go far leisurely.
However, the two of them invariably ignored one important thing - the military attache and the civilian official are very different, and the friendship cultivated in the army is not comparable to that of the nominal academy master and apprentice.
In addition to Lin Hai, Zhou Weida is currently the head of the Daxia Military Academy. When he was teaching the cadets, he told them that the first rule was to resolutely obey the orders of their superiors, and as for who was this superior commander? Obviously, it was Lin Hai, the dean of the military academy, who was the biggest leader in the military academy.
Not only that, Zhou Weida also preaches brainwashing ideas to students all day long. He imitated the one he had done in the Shenwei Camp at the beginning, and made up a new slogan, so that the trainees kept shouting when they were being trained, and the content was nothing more than playing a sideline game and singing praises to the Lin family.
The result is as expected - those students who are "like a blank sheet of paper" have all been brainwashed, and in addition to leading troops to fight, they are the greatest in the world, and their loyalty to the Lin family has reached the full level.
After the first batch of cadets graduated, Yu Shaoxi assigned them one by one to serve as intermediate or senior generals in the major military camps around the imperial capital. Because the idea of loyalty to the Lin family has been ingrained in their minds, these generals unconsciously instilled this idea in their subordinates and soldiers when they were in the barracks.
When the civil and military officials, including Yu Shaoxi, were completely unaware of it, the Lin family had gradually controlled the military power invisibly, and this kind of loyalty with strong centripetal force was spreading to several counties around the imperial capital at a very fast speed, and there was a tendency to expand more and more.
As for the idea proposed by Situ Wuji, it was precisely for the Lin family, the "fire of military power" that had already burned, and poured a bucket of gasoline, and when everyone didn't know it, this fire was close to the prairie fire!
........................
"Grandpa, what happened to you in the court just now?Why don't you refute it?" As soon as he returned to the Lin Mansion, Lin Yu couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm, refute what?" Old Man Lin was thinking about other things, and he didn't react for a while, so he said casually.
"Refute Yu Shaoxi! What kind of mind does that old thing have? He actually lowered all the official ranks of our Lin family! What else did he say 'accompany the prince to study', he could actually say this kind of high-sounding words! As far as Yu Muchuan's stupid virtue can learn a yarn! I was upset when I saw him!" Lin Yu said angrily, and the more he talked, the more angry he became.
Originally, when he was in the Jinluan Palace, he wanted to contradict Yu Shaoxi for a few words, but when he saw that Old Man Lin received the holy decree without saying a word, he couldn't say anything more, so he could only hold back the fire in his stomach and wait until he returned to the mansion to vent it.
"Nonsense! You are really getting more and more disagreeable, how many times have I told you? You are not allowed to call Your Majesty by his name! Why can't you remember? And insult the eldest prince...... You're too bold to act like a prince now!" Old Man Lin reprimanded in a fierce voice.
Seeing Lin Yu's unhappy face, Old Man Lin sighed, shook his head and said, "Since Your Majesty wants to do this, it naturally has his intentions." As courtiers, the most important thing is to obey the holy commands. If they were all like you, the Great Xia Empire would have been in chaos a long time ago. ”
Lin Tianqing is not a fool, and he also knows very well in his heart the reason why Yu Shaoxi did this - that is, to gradually deprive the Lin family of military power. But the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, he can have today's achievements and family business, all of which are given by Emperor Daxia, even if Yu Shaoxi wants to take it back, he can't have the slightest complaint, let alone commit the next offense!
"Your thinking is too old-fashioned!" Lin Yu protested indignantly: "Yu Shaoxi is clearly taking the opportunity to seize the power of our Lin family! You have worked hard all your life, laying down half of the Great Xia for him, my father led the army to the battle, so far there is no news, Uncle and I have made outstanding achievements for this empire, but this surnamed Yu, not only did not even have a word of thanks, but also made us become a teacher in a few words, I think he is simply an ungrateful faint king!"
Lin Yu wasn't angry with Old Man Lin, but felt that Yu Shaoxi was too unreliable!
