Chapter 11160

Emperor Zhou looked at King Han.

Based on his performance just now, King Han must have stood up for Lin Yi, but he didn't.

After hesitating for a moment, Emperor Zhou couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid what King Chu said is not appropriate. Lin Yi has made great contributions to our imperial court, and he is naturally one of our own."

Everyone couldn't help but be a little surprised.

King Chu's eyes flashed with disdain, and he retorted unceremoniously: "You know people but not their hearts. No one can say what the intentions behind his actions are. Your Majesty is still too young."

"..."

Emperor Zhou's face suddenly turned red, but he did not dare to retort.

At this time, Lin Yi smiled lightly and said: "It seems that King Chu is really a roundworm in my belly. It's just the first time I've met him, but he can figure out my plans clearly."

King Chu's face darkened and he immediately cursed.

You are a roundworm! Your whole family is full of roundworms!

However, Lin Yi then said: "In that case, I might as well add a little more to the bet just now. Not only will I not choose these rules you have drawn up by King Chu, I will just wait until the end."

King Chu's eyes lit up: "You said this yourself."

Despite his aggressive appearance, he looked like he wanted to beat Lin Yi into a traitor in public, but in reality he knew very well that this was completely impossible.

If Lin Yi is really accused and imprisoned today, it will not be Lin Yi himself who will be ruined, but the reputation of the entire Inner Court.

At his level, he knows that he must act in moderation. Once he goes too far, he will inevitably suffer disaster.

After all, there is God's will in the world.

Now that Lin Yi took the bait, he certainly wanted it.

"I haven't finished speaking yet."

Lin Yi said calmly: "If you lose, King Chu, you must apologize to the emperor and kowtow in public!"

Everyone was stunned.

King Chu subconsciously retorted: "Why?"

Lin Yi said seriously: "Just because you are disrespectful to the emperor."

This sentence brought tears to Emperor Zhou's eyes on the spot, and his eyes suddenly became much more eager when he looked at Lin Yi.

O loyal minister! This is the true loyal minister!

Over the years, from the seven kings to the princes and ministers, almost all the carnivores in the court have treated him as a puppet like the Clay Bodhisattva.

Especially among the important figures in the court, there were only a handful of people who truly respected him as the emperor.

Wu Hou Wu Wudi is one, but unfortunately he is now in prison.

Although Emperor Zhou was optimistic about Lin Yi and wanted to win over Lin Yi to be his confidant, he could not figure out Lin Yi's attitude after all.

What if Lin Yi is like people like King Chu and treats him as a puppet emperor?

Fortunately, it seems like it’s going both ways now!

Emperor Zhou's heart suddenly relaxed.

Now, it was King Chu's turn to be embarrassed.

He really despised the Emperor of Zhou from the bottom of his heart, and he never tried to hide it in front of others and behind the scenes. From him, he could never see the etiquette of his subjects towards the Emperor.

But it's one thing to do this kind of thing, but it's another thing to point it out in public.

This kind of thing only weighs two ounces before it goes on the scale. Once it goes on the scale, it won't weigh a thousand kilograms.

The key is that King Chu's rudeness was so obvious that he couldn't even deny it in public. That would be an insult to everyone's intelligence and would be an extra crime.

Finally, King Chu snorted coldly: "Okay, I'm waiting to see you go to jail and be unlucky!"

Lin Yi glanced at him, then turned to Emperor Zhou and gave him a serious look, receiving a grateful look from Emperor Zhou.

This scene fell into the eyes of others, and many people secretly laughed.

Lin Yi's intention of doing this naturally could not escape their eyes.

When entering the inner palace for the first time, as an outsider with no foundation, it is normal practice to find a thigh to hug.

But hugging Zhou Tianzi's body by his thighs was indeed a bit funny to discerning people like them.

After the Hundred Sons Plan, the remaining reputation of Emperor Zhou will be further weakened, and the King of Qin may take action at any time to change the dynasty.

In this case, whoever gets closer to Emperor Zhou will be more unlucky.

As everyone knows, this is Lin Yi's true intention.

Although there are considerable risks in burning the cold stove of Emperor Zhou, there are also huge benefits behind it.

Lin Yi looked at the reactions of the ministers and was unconvinced: "The allusion of using the emperor to control the princes seems not to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people here."

In fact, the Inner Court is full of smart people and careerists. There are definitely more than one or two people who think of this.

But in the end no one dared to put it into practice.

Without him, the heat of this cold stove is really difficult to control. If you are not careful, you will get burned.

Lin Yi is an exception.

With Si Nanjie in hand, he can see the future trends of Emperor Zhou and the seven princes at any time, and naturally he can accurately grasp the situation. This is a unique advantage!

After reaching an agreement, Lin Yi immediately stepped aside and let Bai Shizu and others take the lead.

The result was no surprise at all. The rules chosen by these people had already been determined.

All the core rules that apparently belong to the Seven Kings have been prioritized.

King Chu glanced at Lin Yi provocatively.

Lin Yi's previous words were unequivocal, predicting that he would be in bad luck. Although he scoffed, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

It was precisely for this reason that he insisted on not giving priority to Lin Yi, because he was afraid that Lin Yi would deliberately stumble and ruin his planned plan for the Chu Palace.

Now, the plan has been executed perfectly, and he no longer has any worries.

Bad luck? hehe.

As a result, Lin Yi looked at him with eyes full of pity.

From beginning to end, the people of the Prince of Chu's Palace chose a total of seven core rules, second only to the nine rules of the Prince of Qin's Palace.

As far as the overall operation is concerned, it is indeed beyond reproach and can even be said to be a complete victory.

However, from Si Nanjie's perspective, the seven core rules chosen by King Chu all have little prospect. To be precise, there is no prospect at all.

None of them can escape the gods' next rules purge!

With his face so dark, even if Lin Yi was in a hostile position, he couldn't help but feel sad for him.

On the other hand, although the core rules chosen by the other seven kings were also flawed, none of them was as shameful as King Chu, so shameless that his entire army was annihilated.

When the results come out, it is really hard to imagine what the scene in Prince Chu's palace will look like.

Lin Yi shook his head secretly.

Even if all the core rules were wiped out, the influence value would only drop from eighty-five to seventy-five, instead of falling to the bottom, which shows the profound foundation of the Chu Palace.

"Haha, isn't it too late to shake your head now?"

The King of Chu never thought that Lin Yi was expressing pity. He thought that he finally saw the situation clearly and was just feeling sorry for himself.

On the other side, King Han looked at Lin Yi with complicated eyes.

Lin Yi's move of voluntarily giving up the right of choice forced him to activate his plan.

Although judging from the results, the core rules of Prince Han's Palace basically fell into the hands of his own people, and overall there was no danger, but after all, there were visible cracks between him and Lin Yi.

A disobedient chess piece is not a good chess piece. (End of chapter)
