Chapter 65: Summer Solstice

Yuan Hongdao frowned, and listened to the prime minister's soft voice: "I have been in the court for too long, I don't know how many people I have offended, two sons and one daughter under my knees, I originally expected Gong'er to be able to become a weapon, but I didn't expect to suffer this catastrophe, and now there are only Dabao and Chen'er...... They have to be arranged. ”

Yuan Hongdao frowned again: "It's just that such a change seems to have come a little more drasticly." ”

Lin Ruofu's eyes suddenly softened: "As a father, you don't need to be too sorry. If you talk about the matter of seizing the heir, Your Majesty is in the prime of life, but I am afraid that you and I will already be dead by then, so why worry so much. He then asked.

"Are you sure it's the hand of the sword?"

Yuan Hongdao nodded: "Yes." ”

Lin Ruofu took a deep breath of cold air: "Sometimes I find that the power in my hands can't be exchanged for anything...... But since the Fan family and the Supervision Yuan have been secretly communicating for so many years, I think that if the old man is added, they should not refuse. ”

Yuan Hongdao smiled and said: "Fan Shilang has made every effort to promote this marriage according to his relationship with His Majesty, and I think he has long hoped for the boss. ”

Lin Ruofu smiled and said: "In a few days, I will see with my own eyes that person named Fan Xian to see if he is worthy of my daughter." ”

Yuan Hongdao said again: "The eldest princess is ...... there."

Knowing that the prime minister's second son died unnaturally and had an inescapable relationship with the eldest princess's plan, Ai Hongdao was very careful to mention her name.

"Li Yunrui asked Wu Bo'an to plan the assassination of the first decision, it was a three-way strategy, killing Fan Xian, she could regain the power of the inner library. Speaking of the arch, she can use this as a rope to tie my prime minister's house firmly to her body. It's just that she didn't expect that Fan Xian was not so easy to kill, and Wu Bo'an, a cheap dog, was ...... with my child He's dead. Two cold glints appeared in Lin Ruofu's eyes: "But she still has the most important link, that is, she has calculated His Majesty's mind, even if Cheng Jushu and his party can escape from Kyoto, I am afraid that she will be killed by her fake order to let Fang Xiu kill in Cangzhou." In this way, the Northern Qi Dynasty killed people. ”

Yuan Hongdao frowned and said, "It turns out that the eldest princess guessed that His Majesty wanted to use a sword soldier. ”

Lin Ruofu shook his head: "Your Majesty did not compete for the full success of the Northern Expedition back then, and he has always been obsessed with it, and the eldest princess has now given him such a good excuse." Even if His Majesty doesn't like her to make her own opinions, he must accept her feelings. It's just that the matter of the peace treaty was too complicated back then, and His Majesty would at most seize a few small countries this time. Give Northern Qi a little color to see. ”

Yuan Hongdao sighed and said, "The eldest princess is amazingly wise, and it is really difficult to deal with. ”

Lin Ruofu slowly closed his eyes and said, "I never thought of dealing with her...... Leave it to the younger generations. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the study, and I don't know who dared to make such a noise late at night, but looking at the expressions of the prime minister and Yuan Hongdao, it was obvious who was outside. The door was pushed open, and a big fat man in his twenties walked in. The old mothers and subordinates in the back didn't even hold back. Dare to stand outside the study and ask the prime minister for guilt. The rules of the Prime Minister's Mansion are big, and there is no permission from the Prime Minister. Anyone who enters the study without permission will be severely punished. Lin Ruofu waved his hand, signaling that he understood, and then looked at the big fat man with a gentle face and said softly: "Dabao, why are you not well-behaved again?"

This big fat man, called Dabao, has a wide eyebrow between the eyebrows, and his eyes are a little straight, and it seems that there is something wrong with brain development. But when he heard Lin Ruofu speak, he immediately quieted down, and said shyly: "Dabao is good, but my brother hasn't come back yet." ”

This is Lin Ruofu's eldest son, who had an illness when he was a child, and as a result, he became what he is now, and he has always had an IQ of only three or four years old, so he rarely goes out, and everyone in Kyoto sympathizes with the Prime Minister's suffering, and they don't mention this matter much. Dabao Ping Suri is the closest to Lin Hui, but he hasn't seen his brother for the past two days, so he has become irritable.

Lin Ruofu mourned in his heart, and felt like a twist, covered his chest, and stabilized for a long time before softly persuading: "Erbao has gone out, and he will come back in a few days, Dabao is good, go to sleep." ”

Dabao finally quieted down, with a somewhat clumsy smile on his face, and was led to sleep in the backyard by the old mothers.

After a period of silence, Lin Ruofu said coldly: "I only have one son and one daughter, and Dabao is like this, Brother Yuan, what do you think I should do?"

Yuan Hongdao frowned: "For the sake of the eldest prince, it is not a very good idea for Miss Chen to marry Fan Xian, after all, it seems that it is difficult for Fan Gongzi to escape the political opposition, and it is extremely difficult to stabilize his life in the future, and it is not too convenient to entrust the eldest prince to Miss Chen in the future." ”

Lin Ruoyou shook his head, and a chill came out of his words: "As long as his surname is Fan, he is destined to not be able to escape these nets, so I would rather he be a ruthless person, so as to protect Chen'er and her eldest brother for the safety of their lives......"

After saying this, he immediately regained his composure and walked to the back of the book, opened the sand curtain, looked at the general situation of the world behind the scenes, and began to frown silently, his eyes occasionally swept the direction of Dongyi City, but more of them stayed in the north of Qingguo, and the intricate small candidate countries between Qingguo and Northern Qi.

After a long time, Lin Ruofu frowned and said: "You have to come up with a strategy immediately, although it may not be a big war, and the two sides may not be in direct contact, but if the northern counties want to transport grain and horses to those small countries, they must be prepared in advance." ”

Yuan Hong responded, and then listened to the Prime Minister start coughing, coughing so quickly that there seemed to be some water in the corners of his eyes. The prime minister stood in front of the map, frowning and planning, as if he had not lost a biological son today, Yuan Hongdao looked at his back, sighed in his heart, slightly moved and guilty, thinking that although Ruofu was rich and noble in this life, there was no comfortable day, it could really be said that the princess was mistaken for life.

――――――

All of these things happen in one day, and no one knows what the deals or quarrels mean under these undercurrents. The meeting between Sinanbo Fan Jian and Chen Pingping, the private meeting between the prime minister and the eldest princess, the whole court, the people who know these two things will not exceed Fan Xian's ten fingers.

So Fan Xian didn't know that his future had been arranged on a golden strip.

If the past few months after entering Beijing have been like the darkness before dawn, the thick black ink has covered his facial features, making him feel pressured and unable to relax. Then in the following days, it was suddenly like a god brought a basin of water and splashed it on his face, which made him feel extremely refreshed and comfortable, and also made him extremely sober.

These days, he has been hypnotizing himself, and the death of his second brother-in-law has nothing to do with him, only in this way can he face Lin Wan'er, who is the most difficult for him to face at this time. Lin Wan'er has been a little depressed since she knew that her second brother died, although the two brothers and sisters have not met a few times, but they are connected by blood and bones, and they are a little sad after all. Fan Xian saw these in his eyes, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, although the second uncle was the murderer behind the murder who wanted to kill him-he sometimes felt a little cold-blooded and sick, because if he heard that Fan Sizhen in Kyoto had died when he was in Lanzhou, maybe he would not be sad in the slightest

Of course, the current situation is different, the Liu family seems to have acquiesced to the current situation, and the Liu family in Kyoto also smelled a little unusual breath and gave the Liu family enough information for reference, so the Liu family was unusually peaceful, and no longer stopped Fan Sizhen from following Fan Xian to wander around in Kyoto.

What reassured Fan Xian the most was that no one seemed to suspect that the death of the second son of the prime minister's family had something to do with him, including the prime minister. In fact, this matter was a little too much for him and King Jing, Wu Bo'an and Lin Heng were so hidden that they couldn't even be found out by the Supervision Yuan for a while, so who else could find out except for the four grandmasters in the world? As long as no one knew the relationship between Fan Xian and Wuzhu, no one would have thought that Fan Xian would have anything to do with Lin Hui's death.

What was even more unexpected to Fan Xian was that after multiple rumors, he vaguely received the news from the Prime Minister's Mansion that the Prime Minister expressed a certain degree of approval for the marriage in October, just as Fan Xian kept wondering if the old man was sending a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and he was really disheartened, the treacherous Sinan Bo Fan Jian understood the reason behind this matter before anyone in the government and the opposition: the prime minister and the East Palace or the eldest princess don't know why there is a disagreement, this is Lin Ruofu is looking for a new investment direction, and it may be a sign that the political center of gravity of the Prime Minister's Mansion has begun to shift to the second prince。

The two assassinations one after the other shook the sky of Kyoto like two spring thunders, but after the spring thunder, there was no rain left, and gradually things faded, but the prime minister seemed to be sad and died, and became a little discouraged, and rarely went to court under the pretext of illness. The crippled Dean Chen didn't go to court much either, just stayed in the courtyard and occasionally issued a few orders. Thinking of this, Fan Xian always wondered why Chen Pingping didn't summon him after returning to Beijing, he didn't know at this time that in the prison, the old cripple had already played voyeurism. What's even more confusing is that Chen Pingping has returned to Beijing, where did Fei Jie go?

In any case, after this short but tragic confrontation, the various forces in the DPRK and China paid the price of several lives and rebuilt a somewhat fragile balance. Some people accepted the changes they had to accept, such as the change of control of the inner treasury after a few years, and some began to look for another way to protect themselves and their families, such as the prime minister. These changes are undoubtedly extremely beneficial to Fan Xian, at least he doesn't have to worry too much about his personal safety.

It was only at this time that he wrote a letter to his grandmother in Lanzhou, telling the old man that he was doing well in Kyoto and asked her not to worry too much.

Spring is followed by summer, although this is a nonsense, but for Fan Xian, who has finally established himself in Kyoto after a lot of hard work, his life is finally less lewd and rainy, and there are more bright eyes, happy days, and it seems that he is slowly beckoning to him over there.

Summer is coming, will the autumn wedding day be far away?
