Chapter 31: The Lonely Shadow
Lin Kecheng hadn't gotten such news before, but now when he heard Lin Tianxiao talk about it, his eyes immediately lit up, and he said happily: "So Feng'er has already told Zhan'er about this, and an understanding has been reached between the two of them, so Feng'er will have such a change." It's a great event. ”
The hidden cats behind the royal marriage, Lin Kecheng, can also see it clearly. As worried about Lin Feng, Lin Zhan's resentment of Lin Feng was the last thing Lin Kecheng wanted to see.
Now Lin Kecheng was naturally quite happy to hear the news, but after a while, Lin Kecheng's smile slowly disappeared, and was replaced by a deep confusion: "No, my father and second brother went to Zhan'er and told him about it." According to you, Zhan'er seems to be quite dissatisfied with this matter. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his attitude was very bad. The father and the second brother also persuaded Zhan'er many times for this matter, but it seems that the effect is not obvious. ”
"This is also a point of confusion for me, and it wasn't until I saw Zhan'er's performance today that I had a preliminary judgment. ”
Lin Kecheng immediately asked, "Please ask my father to solve his doubts." ”
"There is no doubt that Zhan'er and Feng'er have reconciled. At that time, there were only two people at the scene, Zhan'er and Feng'er, and this matter came suddenly, Zhan'er had no need or possibility to deceive Feng'er, and the changes in Feng'er after that were definitely not pretended. ”
Lin Kecheng is also a smart person, and after Lin Tianxiao's little push, he immediately thought of a possibility: "Father, are you saying that Zhan'er's reaction after that was deliberately pretended." ”
Lin Tianxiao nodded and said, "Zhan'er is the heir of our Lin family. There is no need for him to deliberately deceive us, so that it is very likely that he will pretend to be shown to outsiders. In addition, Zhan'er suddenly proposed to put a group of guards first. Combining these two things, what do you think is the most likely thing?"
Royal house.
This answer doesn't need to be said at all, Lin Kecheng can guess it immediately.
Lin Zhan's only target in doing so could only be the royal family. Because the whole thing is a trap set by the royal family, and the core of the trap is Lin Zhan and Lin Feng.
pretended to be dissatisfied with this matter, and played a good show of brothers against their goals, so that the royal family thought that their plan had succeeded and paralyzed their carelessness. Lin Zhan took this opportunity to quickly build up his own forces as a means to fight back against the royal family in the future.
Lin Zhan's action today is just the first step.
Lin Kecheng quickly calmed down after the initial surprise. His expression also became solemn.
If that's the case, then things get complicated.
"We all underestimated the war before. Lin Tianxiao sighed: "I'm afraid that Zhan'er has already seen the problem in this marriage. As a result, Zhan'er also made a decision to fight back against the royal family. I even suspect that there was not just a reconciliation between him and Feng'er, but some kind of agreement. Only in this way can he sing the play of brothers turning against each other. Feng'er has also been extremely dissatisfied with the suppression of the royal family over the years, and this marriage is very likely to be a fuse, pushing Feng'er to Zhan'er's side. ”
Listening to Lin Tianxiao's words, Lin Keluo's brows gradually wrinkled together, and he asked another question: "In that case, why didn't Zhan'er come out earlier." You must know that the royal family's suppression of us is not just now. Why was Zhan'er silent before?"
"Because the royal family has not touched Zhan'er before, Zhan'er is too lazy to care about these things. But this time, they put their ideas directly on Zhan'er's head. Lin Tianxiao sighed: "I was also surprised by the gap between the front and back of the battle, and then I thought about it, is there such an explanation." ”
Lin Tianxiao said slowly: "There is such a person in this world, who is born with strange talents and extraordinary talents, and can easily guide the country and stir up the wind and clouds left and right. With such high talents, they themselves are unambitious, unwilling to fight with others, and disdain to drift with the mortal dust, only willing to stay in their own world to entertain themselves. ”
Lin Kecheng was amazed, and asked a little incredulously: "Father thinks Zhan'er is this kind of person." ”
Lin Tianxiao said affirmatively: "We all know that Zhan'er has not had much interest in things in the outside world since he was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is disdainful, and from these two things, it can also be seen that Zhan'er is not a useless waste. In addition, the direct reason for stimulating Zhan'er to do this was that the royal family hit the idea on his head. So it is reasonable to infer that Zhan'er did not bear the humiliation and decided to fight back. ”
Lin Kecheng's heart jumped, and his face immediately became ugly. Although Lin Tianxiao's words used an inferential tone, Lin Kecheng, who knew Lin Tianxiao's temperament and temperament, understood that since Lin Tianxiao said this, it showed that he was already eighty or ninety percent sure of this matter.
And with Lin Tianxiao's experience and wisdom, he is eighty or ninety percent sure that he can basically make a conclusion on this matter.
Lin Kecheng asked worriedly, "Father, can he do it according to your opinion?"
Hearing this question, Lin Tianxiao said with some pride: "If it were before today, I definitely didn't believe that Zhan'er could succeed. But now, Zhan'er is at least sixty percent sure that he can do what he wants. ”
Lin Tianxiao's evaluation of Lin Zhan was so high. Lin Kecheng was greatly surprised by this.
You must know that Lin Zhan wants to deal with the most powerful royal family in the Heavenly Star Empire. It's that the entire Lin family is a big difference compared to the royal family, where did Lin Tianxiao get so much confidence.
And didn't Lin Tianxiao just say that Lin Zhan may not be as good as Lin Feng?
Lin Kecheng's reaction Lin Tianxiao knew what he was thinking at a glance, and said with some annoyance: "What kind of expression do you have, do you doubt what the old man said? Zhan'er may not be as good as Feng'er, but when did I say that Feng'er couldn't do these things." Don't forget, Feng'er has been pressed by us all these years, so we haven't taken any action. ”
scolded angrily, and scolded our General Lin so much that he didn't dare to speak.
"Don't think I'm exaggerating. You just said that Zhan'er is calm and decisive in killing. But you didn't point out the really powerful point of Zhan'er. ”
Lin Kecheng's face stiffened, and he couldn't help but think. There's something I've missed.
"Think about it, how did Zhan'er deal with the second team?" Lin Tianxiao reminded.
After thinking about it for a while, I went through every detail in my head. Lin Kecheng's eyes slowly lit up: "Zhan'er's reaction seems to be too fast. ”
"That's right, it's fast. It's a little abnormal. Lin Tianxiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were calm and wise: "Almost when the second team just took a step, Zhan'er had already spoken. This not only gives me ample excuses, but also prevents the team from following behind. To put it simply, Zhan'er was designed from the beginning to use the people of the second team to make an example. The order he gave was a bit vague in itself, and the people of the second team would naturally subconsciously follow it when they saw the first team passing, and Zhan'er was waiting for this opportunity. ”
"As a manager, you should understand how rare it is to be someone who can make it to the end in that kind of selection. But Zhan'er used nearly ten such people to deter others. And the last oath forced everyone to have no way out. Either you swear allegiance to me, or you admit that your loyalty to the Lin family is fake. ”
Putting these things together little by little, I thought about the whole process today. Lin Kecheng's eyes involuntarily revealed a trace of jealousy.
"Zhan'er, in order to achieve the goal, he will do whatever it takes, and he doesn't care about sacrifice. All he wants is results. ”
As soon as these words came out, the two people in the secret room fell silent instantly. The two veterans who have experienced many ups and downs naturally understand how terrible such a person is.
The forty-seven people selected by Lin Zhan may be even more terrifying than they imagined in the future.
What Lin Kecheng and Lin Tianxiao talked about in the secret room could not be known to outsiders, even Pang Tian, who had been waiting outside the door, did not know anything about it.
Similarly, Lin Zhan, who had already returned to his small courtyard, didn't know about it.
How much impact will today's incident have on the Lin family, and Lin Zhan has a rough estimate. But no matter how serious Lin Zhan's estimation was, he didn't expect that the two core people of the Lin family would actually discuss themselves in the most secret place of the Lin family for a night.
Lin Zhan, who didn't know anything about these things, would have arrived in his small courtyard early. Lin Yu waited patiently outside the door for Lin Zhan's arrival as usual.
After Lin Zhan came back, he exhaled lightly, turned his head and looked at Lin Yu solemnly, but did not speak.
Lin Yu, who already knew Lin Zhan's mind well, naturally knew what Lin Zhan wanted. With a shallow smile, he stretched out a pair of Qianqian jade hands, revealing a lotus arm that deceived frost and snow.
Lin Zhan, who was puzzled, turned a blind eye to the pair of Hao wrists that would make countless women blush, and stared at the cold air that shrouded Lin Yu's hands.
Lin Zhan's reaction naturally made Lin Yu's eyes show a trace of dissatisfaction and resentment, but Lin Yu didn't show it, let alone say anything. Just holding up his almost perfect jade hands, Lin Zhan looked at it more carefully.
After half a ring, Lin Zhan finally nodded with satisfaction, and without saying anything, he walked straight back to the room. Leaving only a lonely shadow and letting the moonlight shine all over the body.
watched Lin Zhan walk into the house without looking back. Lin Yu's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled a little.
This smile is called poignant, a kind of beauty that no one will appreciate.
Lin Yu didn't know if this was a punishment for Lin Zhan himself, because Lin Zhan had been like this before.
What Lin Yu understood was that if Lin Zhan was really ready to punish himself in this way, then this would undoubtedly be the most cruel punishment for himself.
