Chapter 6: Don't be careless

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a great contribution today."

"If there is a truce, the border between my Zhou State and Yan State can be kept peaceful for ten years!"

Ye Shoufu arched his hand and said with a smile.

"It's really surprising that the eldest brother is so capable all of a sudden."

"That eternal is not even the saint of Yan Kingdom, and no one can understand it in this world."

Lin Yi on the side also opened his mouth meaningfully.

"It's just that the world said before that the eldest brother doesn't learn and can't ......"

"Yi'er ......"

Emperor Zhou frowned unhappily.

"How can you say that your eldest brother doesn't learn and can't learn, and that's how your mother taught you?"

Seeing this, Lin Yi pursed his lips.

"It's me who used the wrong words, and I hope that my father will forgive my sins......"

"But the eldest brother has never been interested in this kind of learning before, and I don't know why the eldest brother suddenly opened his mind."

"Didn't you behave like that before, didn't you deliberately fool us brothers?"

Lin Yi deliberately made a look of grievance.

"Before, my third brother and I held a literary meeting, and I wanted to invite my eldest brother to come forward and compete with those children of the family and ask for advice."

"It's good to help the eldest brother establish his prestige, but the eldest brother has shirked it several times."

"I ...... I thought my eldest brother wouldn't dare ...... Now that I look at it again, it's clear that the eldest brother is unwilling! ”

Lin Yi's voice became smaller and quieter.

That look, like a filial brother who really thinks about his eldest brother.

The smile on Lin Ye's face faded, and he almost wanted to sigh with his palm.

With this acting skill, I think it is the true biography of that Dong Guifei.

Lin Yi's words seemed to be describing the confusion and grievances in his heart, but in fact, he was hinting to Emperor Zhou that he had deliberately hidden it before.

But what if it's clumsy?

He is the crown prince, Emperor Zhou is still in power, if he is too sharp now, Emperor Zhou will not rest assured.

Emperor Zhou didn't care if he had been hiding it.

As long as you have made meritorious contributions, then your merits outweigh your faults.

Lin Ye's gaze swept over the thoughtful Emperor Zhou and slowly spoke.

"Second brother, the group of sons and brothers that you and the third brother are surrounded by are just a group of wine bags and rice bags."

"What's the point of competing and discussing with them at the literary meeting?"

Lin Ye shook his head.

"Father, it's not a secret, the sons did not pay much attention to these Wenhui before."

"But this doesn't mean that there is no pen and ink in the chest of the son, what I really appreciate is a talented man like Lu Lin, who is extremely talented and learned."

"It's just a waste of time to deal with those wine bags and rice bags."

When Emperor Zhou heard this, he laughed.

"Ye'er's words also make some sense."

"As the so-called meritocracy, you can always have understanding by dealing with talented and learned people."

Lin Ye had just made a great contribution, and Emperor Zhou was willing to hold him.

Lin Yi and Ye Shoufu, who were standing under His Highness, frowned lightly when they heard this.

"Your Majesty is right, it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who often deals with talented and learned people, and now he can solve the eternal absolute."

"Let's win against Yan Guo, now Yan Guo is willing to agree to stop the war, think about it, in the past ten years, my Zhou State will no longer have to worry about the border matter!"

"The cost of military salaries can also be saved!"

Ye Shoufu took the initiative to step forward and bowed to Emperor Zhou.

"Your Majesty, there are three months left, and it will be your birthday."

"The remaining 500,000 taels, as well as the military salary for the past ten years......"

"Even if the Yan Kingdom agrees to stop the war for ten years, we can't be careless about extinction."

Lin Ye frowned and interrupted Ye Shoufu's nonsense.

"As a country with a strong military, there are countless small states that are vassals of them, although they promised to stop the war."

"But those small countries don't have them!"

"If they still have their minds set up and want to seize our Sanyang Town, they can definitely instruct those small vassal states to invade!"

"We still can't take this border and armament lightly."

"This military salary, we should be paid, soldiers, we should be trained, and we must not lose Sanyang Town and other important towns because of carelessness!"

Lin Ye's words were loud, and Ye Shoufu and Lin Yi also looked at each other.

Lin Ye paid attention to Emperor Zhou's expression, and at the same time secretly complained in his heart.

This Ye Shoufu is really a mediocre talent!

At this juncture, I don't want to develop armaments and the national strength of the Zhou State, but I only want to come up with this strategy to curry favor with the Zhou Emperor and consume the national treasury!

If he hadn't known that this Ye Shoufu was from the Ye family, a century-old family from the Zhou Kingdom, Lin Ye would have suspected that the other party was a spy sent by the Yan Kingdom!

"Hahaha, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too worried."

That Ye Shoufu saw that Emperor Zhou's face was shaken.

He hurried forward.

"Those vassal small countries, but they are just ants, where can they compete with our Zhou Kingdom?"

"Even if we don't invest troops on the border, those small vassal countries will attack, we can easily deal with them!"

Ye Shoufu shook his head again when he said this.

"Prince, you have to have confidence in our Zhou Kingdom!"

Have a fart!

According to this old guy's proposal, the national power will be consumed, not to mention those small dependent countries.

Those kings with different surnames on the border don't rebel, that's all thank God!

Lin Ye cursed secretly, and he frowned and looked at Emperor Zhou who was sitting on the upper seat.

"Your Majesty......"

After saying that, Ye Shoufu did not give up.

He was about to take the opportunity to belittle Lin Ye, and Emperor Zhou, who was sitting at the top, had already spoken.

"I'll talk about this later."

"You guys retreat first, I just made a false appointment with the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, and I am also lacking."

Ye Shoufu's face turned pale, and he had to answer the words.

He nodded stupidly, and was about to retreat with Lin Yi and the others, but Lin Ye suddenly said.

"Father, I still have something to ask for, and it is related to Lu Lin."

Emperor Zhou was stunned, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Ye.

"This is the private wish of the retainer."

Seeing that Ye Shoufu and Lin Yi stopped exiting the main hall, Lin Ye turned his head and glanced at them.

Emperor Zhou immediately understood what Lin Ye meant, and he waved his hand at Ye Shoufu and the others.

"You guys stand down first, I'll talk to Ye'er."

Although Ye Shoufu and the others were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to say anything.

They bowed in response and hurried back.

The door of the main hall was closed, and Emperor Zhou returned to the dragon throne and sat down.

"Ye'er, you deserve to be rewarded for your good performance today."

"It just so happens that now this hall is only me and you, what you want, you can also talk to me."

Emperor Zhou's expression was relaxed.

Hearing this, Lin Ye raised his head to meet Emperor Zhou's gaze.

He didn't miss the thoughtful look that flashed in Emperor Zhou's eyes.

said that he was rewarded, but if he really kicked his nose in the face and asked Emperor Zhou for something, Emperor Zhou was afraid that he would feel unhappy.

Now that he has just relied on his merits to deal with the envoys of Yan State, he has won the attention of Emperor Zhou, but he can't be too careless.

Lin Ye coughed lightly and shook his head.

"Father, I don't want anything."

"I just hope that our Zhou Kingdom is peaceful and peaceful, and you don't have to worry about Yan Guo, Father."

When Emperor Zhou heard this, the smile on his face deepened a little.
