Chapter 10: Why Fear
Everyone was silent and looked at each other.
"Let's go."
Shangguan Shuangwu snorted lightly, glanced at the envoys present, and everyone turned around together, intending to leave the city.
"The ten-year cessation of the war has been decided, and I also hope that my Zhou State and Yan Guo will always be together!"
Lin Ye's clear voice came from afar, and Shangguan Shuangwu's eyes lit up.
A look of annoyance and fear flashed across her face, and there were many people present who noticed the look on her face.
The salute officials who came to congratulate each other looked at each other, and there was a little thoughtfulness on their faces.
Why did this princess of Yan Kingdom show such a fearful appearance when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spoke out?
Someone remembered what happened last night, his eyes flashed, he leaned to his colleague's side, and whispered.
Could it be that something happened last night that they didn't expect?
However, I heard that the princess only went to the palace of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for dinner, and was released by His Royal Highness the Prince.
The prince doesn't seem to be as ...... as he joked before.
Everyone's eyes moved lightly, and when they turned their heads to look at Lin Ye, there was some meaning in their eyes, and a subtle sense of respect.
can suppress this princess of Yan Kingdom, this prince's Royal Highness is amazing!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really clumsy, he looked like he was addicted to wine and didn't care about state affairs before, and we were already disappointed in him."
"I heard that there are still people who have begun to contact the second prince."
"Looking at it now, we can keep Sanyang Town, and we can make Yan Guo agree to stop the war, thanks to the prince!"
An official said this in the crowd.
The official did not hide his words, his voice grew louder and louder, and his tone was full of flattery.
Lin Ye stopped as he was about to turn around and get into the carriage, and he turned his head and glanced at the official.
The official hurriedly pulled out a smile and bowed to Lin Ye.
Because of the sound of this sycophant, he was able to win the favor of the prince, but he didn't expect that Lin Ye, who was standing in front of the carriage, had a sinking face.
He waved his hand.
"Royal business, are you qualified to judge the merits?"
"You dare to slander my second brother in front of me? I think you're tired of being crooked! ”
"Someone! Put him in jail! I want to see who else will dare to stir up a relationship between our two brothers in front of me in the future! ”
The official was stunned, then turned pale.
He fell to his knees with a pop and bowed to Lin Ye repeatedly.
"Prince...... His Royal Highness the Prince! I definitely don't mean to stir up the relationship between you and the second prince! ”
"I just...... I'm just emotional! ”
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't get me wrong! The minister knows that he is wrong! Please spare me this time! ”
Lin Ye snorted coldly, he ignored the official's pleas, but turned his head to look at the second prince standing behind the crowd.
The second prince's face was gloomy, and when he noticed Lin Ye's gaze, he quickly adjusted the expression on his face.
"Thank you, big brother, for standing up for my brother."
The second prince bowed to Lin Ye.
Seeing this, Lin Ye waved his hand generously.
"It's all a family, you don't have to be polite, you and I have a very good relationship, and our affection can't be provoked by others."
"I also hope that second brother, you don't take that official's words to heart."
"I don't care."
When the second prince heard this, he responded again.
Seeing this, Lin Ye nodded with satisfaction, turned around and got into the carriage.
There was another murmur in the crowd.
Some people lamented that this royal relationship was not as tense as the legend, and this prince was indeed a model of his brother.
Even if the courtier slapped all the sycophants, the prince had to stand up for his younger brother.
Everyone praised Lin Ye a lot, but only the second prince knew that Lin Ye's performance just now was just a show.
He said that the official would be put in prison, but he did not convict the official.
He was just going to lock the official for a few days and then release him.
Pretending.
But then again, his eldest brother didn't have such twists and turns in the early days, why did he suddenly have such a city......
Or is he finally unwilling to continue pretending?
What is the reason for this reluctance to continue pretending?
The second prince narrowed his eyes slightly, and heard a sound of footsteps behind him, the second prince turned his head to look behind him, and Ye Shoufu glanced at the second prince.
The second prince nodded quietly.
He followed Ye Shoufu into the carriage, and the sound of rolling wheels sounded.
The second prince and Ye Shoufu were the first to leave, followed by the crown prince and the third prince.
The third prince has been sitting in the carriage and has not shown up.
However, he had heard the six roads and looked in all directions, and he had already seen what was happening outside the carriage clearly.
The third prince's face was gloomy, and he couldn't figure out Lin Ye's thoughts for a while.
Is this intended to vote for the two emperor brothers and unite the forces of the two emperor brothers, or is it ......
"Chunyun, you said that the eldest brother is doing this now......"
"I guess the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is like this should just be trying to pretend in front of the civil and military officials and the people."
"With so many people watching, he can't condone that official to say something rebellious."
"Let those people listen to it, wouldn't it confirm the rumors that the relationship between the royal brothers is anxious."
Now that this performance can still make a reputation for himself, this prince is becoming more and more capable.
The third prince nodded, and although Chunyun had such a guess, he still felt uneasy.
He pondered for a moment, opposing Chun Yundao.
"No, I still don't think it's a point."
"In this way, you ask my grandfather to send someone into the palace to take a look, and see if Concubine Dong and Ye Shoufu show their intention to surrender to the prince."
"If these two forces are connected in one place, then we will be at a disadvantage."
"We can fight against those two forces alone, and we can still fight them, but if we ......"
Chunyun nodded quietly.
The second prince and the third prince each had ghosts, but Lin Ye didn't think about it so much.
He did this as Chunyun and the others expected, just pretending.
The official slapped himself in front of so many people, if he didn't react, wouldn't he seem stupid.
Those courtiers are watching, and only by doing so can they satisfy those courtiers.
The carriage crossed the long street, and the personal attendant sat outside the carriage and asked Lin Ye.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, shall we go back to the Prince's Mansion next, or ......"
Lin Ye was stunned when he heard this.
Is there any other option?
The attendant was worthy of taking care of Lin Ye for a long time, and he quickly guessed Lin Ye's thoughts from Lin Ye's hesitation.
He explained.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, General Xu's only daughter held a literary competition in Chunxiu Building, although His Majesty's marriage decree has been issued, but this literary competition has not ended."
"Now the courtiers have a lot of discussions about the performance of General Xu's daughter, and General Xu talked about it with His Majesty when he went to the morning court today."
