Lin Ze believed that if he said this, Lin Renquan would lock himself up for a few days even if he didn't kill him.

Therefore, Lin Ze hesitated for a while, and finally held back a sentence: "Grandpa, rest assured, the child's injury has already healed, and now the child is refreshed and energetic, and he will never lose your face grandpa." ”

Lin Renquan nodded with satisfaction, looking at Lin Ze's current appearance, he also knew that Lin Ze was not in serious trouble, so at that moment, Lin Renquan called Lin Ze to enter the palace with him.

Lin Renquan took Lin Ze to explain to him the official positions, preferences, temperament, and positions of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee while walking, Lin Renquan did it in such detail, and he was indeed ready to cultivate Lin Ze as his only descendant.

Suddenly, Lin Renquan, who was still introducing the minister, stopped, turned his head to Lin Ze beside him and said, "Xuan'er, your trouble is coming, you can't hide this time." ”

Lin Ze's face was stunned, and when he looked up, he found that not far in front of him, a brocade-robed boy in his thirties was striding towards them, and the whole person was very imposing.

This person Lin Ze had already met on the Yanwu University before, but at that time, he was sitting behind Emperor Yan Hao, Yuanwu Emperor, and he knew at a glance that he must be a relative of the emperor.

Maybe this person's identity is unspeakably precious to the people of the ninth layer of the Chu State, and he will be stammered in words and actions, but Lin Ze doesn't care in his heart.

It doesn't matter if you are a relative of the emperor or a prince, Lin Ze doesn't care at all, if you really provoke Lin Ze, Lin Ze will be 100% killed.

If you use modern words to describe Lin Ze's mentality, that is, he and these people are two parallel lines that do not intersect with each other, not to mention, now Lin Ze's body has been branded with the emperor's mark, so of course Lin Ze will not go to these imperial relatives to take the initiative to talk.

It's just that with Lin Renquan's current identity, he seems to be very skeptical of this person, Lin Ze knows in his heart that things are by no means that simple, and this person's identity is definitely very high.

Sure enough, Lin Renquan's greeting at the next moment confirmed Lin Ze's guess.

"The old minister has seen the Seventh Highness. Lin Renquan waited for this person to approach his side, and took the initiative to step forward and salute.

"The last general has seen His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince. It turned out that this person was actually Yan Yucheng, the Seventh Prince, and Lin Ze's heart suddenly froze.

He knew that this Seventh Prince was extremely hostile to him, and he wanted to kill himself in his heart, but now seeing this Seventh Prince, Lin Ze was really surprised in his heart.

To be honest, Lin Ze doesn't actually seem to have any friendship with these princes, nor does he have an enmity with them.

Thousands of years of ancient history in China have fully shown the world the fierceness of the struggle for the throne, with these examples, Lin Ze really didn't want to get involved in the whirlpool of the throne struggle, so whether it was on the road before, or after he arrived in Kyoto, Lin Ze has been keeping a low profile, closing the camp gate, except for the people in the Hou Mansion, there are generally no outsiders.

Lin Ze did this not to get into the big trouble of fighting for the throne, but from the current situation, Lin Ze took it for granted.

Since he has become a courtier of the Chu State, and has such a powerful army in his hands, the battle for the throne of the Chu State is not something that Lin Ze can avoid if he wants to.

Even, he has now become an extremely important part of the struggle for the throne of the Chu State.

Because, as long as the prince has ambitions for the throne, he will not let go of the powerful army in Lin Ze's hands.

Although there is no such thing as power coming out of the barrel of a gun in the Chu State, the Shenzhou Continent respects martial arts, so the people here are more focused on military power than in ancient China.

"There is no need to be polite, both of them are loyal ministers of the court, and there is no need for such courtesy. Yan Yucheng said with a smile, there was no hatred in his eyes when he looked at Lin Ze, but with a hint of appreciation, as if the news that Lin Ze had found out before was wrong.

"What a hypocrite who can pretend!" Lin Ze muttered in his heart.

Seeing Yan Yucheng's appearance, Lin Ze knew that he was pretending.

Maybe Yan Yucheng thought that he would be deceived by the way he pretended to be now, but Yan Yucheng would never have imagined that their calculations had already been known to Lin Ze.

The conversations between Kong Yu and the Yu brothers in the garden, Lin Ze heard them clearly through the killer bee, and at the same time, at that time, Lin Ze really knew why this Yan Yucheng hated himself so much.

Also, if he was Yan Yucheng, after learning that someone had ruined his chance to ascend to the throne of Chu State, he would also hate this person in his heart and want to break this person into pieces.

Therefore, although Yan Yucheng pretended to greet Lin Ze with a smile on his face, Lin Ze was still wary of Yan Yucheng in his heart.

At this time, I heard Lin Renquan reply: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Seventh Prince!"

Yan Yucheng nodded, and then, his gaze suddenly bypassed Lin Renquan, and directly turned to Lin Ze and Xu Qiang and others beside him and said: "General Lin is really heroic, and the soldiers around him are even more brave, the battle on the martial arts square before, this king is very admired when he sees it, with General Lin, the frontier of our Chu State will be more stable in the future, this is all the credit of General Lin!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, ...... humble position" Lin Ze was about to say a word of humility, when suddenly, a rough voice mixed with a hint of arrogance interrupted his words.

"The Seventh Emperor Brother is not waiting for his father in the main hall, what is he doing here. ”

Lin Ze looked up and saw that a young man who was also in his thirties was standing on the high step and spoke to them.

This person is somewhat similar to the Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng in terms of appearance and dress, the only difference is that this person is a little older than Yan Yucheng, so Lin Ze guessed that the two should be brothers of the same clan.

"Big brother, the younger brother just came out to hang out, but he taught the eldest brother to worry about it. Yan Yucheng nodded to the young man and smiled.

As soon as Lin Ze heard this, he knew that the person in front of him was His Royal Highness Yan Yubin, one of the other protagonists who competed with the Seven Princes.

Seeing the eldest prince Yan Yubin appear here, Lin Renquan, Lin Ze and the others immediately saluted again and saw His Royal Highness, and then in order to avoid further embarrassment in the atmosphere, Lin Renquan preemptively said: "Two Highnesses, Your Majesty is almost here, let's enter the palace first and wait." ”

"Well, okay!" The two princes agreed with Lin Renquan's decision very much, but for some reason, Lin Ze subconsciously felt a little dissatisfied in their hearts. Lin Ze believed in his hunch very much.

"It seems that the strength shown in the Yanwu Square before did play a role, no, these two princes came here in person to make friends with me!" Lin Ze was very proud of his previous decision not to leave his hand in the Yanwu Square, if he hadn't done the scene on the Yanwu Square again, where would Lin Ze have been treated by the two princes who came out to greet him in person.

Soon, several people entered the main hall.

At this time, several ministers of the court had already arrived, saw Lin Renquan and others, and stepped forward to greet them at the same time.

The two princes beside Lin Ze also showed a harmonious appearance, and the two of them were also very skilled, and greeted the ministers around them warmly.

If Lin Ze didn't know that the two of them were already fighting in secret, he really thought that they were a pair of good brothers.

It's just that the most eye-catching thing in the court is Lin Ze now, don't look at Lin Ze is just a general soldier now, and the official rank is many knots worse than the people here, but as long as you understand people, it is clear that Lin Ze's official title is only temporary, and when this court meeting is over, Lin Ze's official rank will be rocket-like, and maybe it will not be a problem to become a second-grade general.

What's more, just by virtue of the fighting soldiers at the previous martial arts conference, even the powerful city guards, and Yu Jie himself on the field, it was still easier to defeat, such strength made Lin Ze's status in the hearts of these courtiers improve rapidly.

In the impression of these powerful people, Lin Ze is no longer an eighteen-year-old immature young man, but a young talent who is indeed talented and knowledgeable, wise and brave.

With such a powerful army in hand, Lin Ze already has the qualifications to play on the chessboard.

As for whether you have the qualifications to become a chess player, it depends on your future performance.

The corner of Yan Yucheng's eyes has been paying attention to Lin Ze, to be honest, Yan Yucheng's heart is indeed eager to kill Lin Ze directly, but the performance of Lin Ze's army in Yanwu Square has made Yan Yucheng have to let go of the hatred for Lin Ze in his heart.

The combat effectiveness of the army in Lin Ze's hands is too strong, if Yan Yucheng can get Lin Ze's support, then the possibility of him ascending to the throne is higher than the previous plan of Confucianism.

Although Yan Yucheng had never heard of the phrase that power comes out of the barrel of a gun, he understood that as long as he had an incomparably powerful army in his hands, even if the other princes had a high reputation and status in the court, the throne of Chu State would still be his, because he had military power and could threaten the lives of those princes at any time.

Because of this, although Yan Yucheng still hated Lin Ze in his heart for destroying his plan, Yan Yucheng still had to temporarily let go of his hatred for Lin Ze, and he also personally recruited Lin Ze, hoping to increase the bargaining chips for ascending to the throne.

It's just that now seeing that Lin Ze is very popular among many ministers, and there are many people from other princes, Yan Yucheng understands in his heart that it is extremely difficult for him to recruit Lin Ze.

"I can't go on like this, now Lin Lixuan's foundation in the court is still very weak, I have to take this opportunity to kill Lin Ze's sharp energy, so that I can recruit Lin Lixuan more easily in the future, so ........" Yan Yucheng had an idea in his heart..... 10
