Just like now, Lin Yi's evaluation of Emperor Zhou was already two points lower.

Lin Yi replied sternly: "I have not had much contact with Marquis Wu, and the information I know is limited, so it is inconvenient to comment."

Emperor Zhou looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Wu is a loyal minister of the royal court. He has served me through life and death, and has made numerous meritorious deeds. The inner court cannot live without him, and I will not give up on him."

Lin Yi listened quietly.

Emperor Zhou continued: "The Seven Kings will definitely not let go of this incident. Marquis Wu has been imprisoned. The next step is to kill him. He cannot die."

Lin Yi remained silent.

The frankness of this puppet emperor was surprising, but he would not underestimate him because of it.

Sitting in the position of the emperor, no matter how much he is ignored by others, he is still a political animal in his heart. Everything he says and does has elements of acting. The other party's actions may be pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

What's more, regarding Wu Wudi's matter, Lin Yi, as a new outsider, had no need to get involved rashly.

The water for Wu Wudi was too deep, and he would not easily enter the water until he had tested it clearly.

Emperor Zhou observed Lin Yi's expression and saw that he remained calm, so he said: "I hope that you and Marquis Wu can become my right-hand men. If you can help Marquis Wu get out of trouble, I will recommend you to be given the title of Marquis." Break your promise.”

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched and his expression moved slightly.

As a puppet emperor, the actual resources that can be provided are very limited, but if it only involves status, he still has this authority.

In other words, Emperor Zhou really couldn't support a real powerful prince, but it was within his ability to be just an empty prince.

For Lin Yi now, even the name of a Marquis is priceless.

Emperor Zhou continued: "If you have any requests, you can make them."

Lin Yi was silent for a moment and said: "I don't have much clue about the matter about Marquis Wu yet. Your Majesty, please allow me to think about it carefully."

Zhou Tianzi pondered for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, he is being held in the prison now. I will give you a warrant. When the time is right, you can go see him."

After saying that, he handed Lin Yi a quick token, which was quite heavy and had a touch of emperor's aura attached to it.

Lin Yi's heart moved. This emperor's aura was a bit weaker than Xu Anshan's. It seemed that the influence of this puppet emperor was indeed limited.

Sinanjie had previously shown an influence value of ten points, which was just right.

"If you have any other needs, you can ask them now and we will try our best to satisfy them."

Emperor Zhou seemed to have an open and honest attitude.

Regardless of whether he is such a person himself, at least in front of Lin Yi, he must create such an image.

Lin Yi immediately said, "I wonder if I can participate in the subsequent rule reconstruction of the Baizi Project?"

After the rules of the gods are purged, the Inner Court will inevitably concentrate its efforts on a large-scale reconstruction of the rules.

The benefits involved are so huge that they are definitely worse than the Hundred Sons Plan itself!

It is no exaggeration to say that the Hundred Sons Project is just an appetizer, and the rule reconstruction is the real big cake.

From the seven major royal palaces to the local forces, everyone must be keeping a close eye on this area at this moment.

Lin Yi has no doubt that preparations by all parties are probably already in full swing!

If you can participate in it, even if you only get a share of it, it will be an astronomical huge benefit.

Whenever there is a chance, Lin Yi cannot miss it.

Emperor Zhou looked embarrassed: "Rebuilding the rules is a major matter, related to the future of the entire inner court and the interests of all the princes. Even if I am the emperor, I cannot decide it with just one word."

This was said very tactfully.

In fact, not only could he not make a decision with a single word, but as a puppet emperor, he had no say at all in such matters, not at all.

As long as he can get involved in such a crucial matter, his influence value will not be a pitiful ten points.

Lin Yi added: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. I am self-aware and do not dare to ask for much reconstruction resources. I just want to ask for a letter of approval from your Majesty and gain a status that can participate in the reconstruction of the rules."

Emperor Zhou suddenly understood and nodded immediately: "That's fine."

As the puppet emperor, what he lacked was never the status, but the lack of resources at hand.

As long as you don't ask for resources from him, especially those core resources that are being watched by all parties, he can satisfy them.

After all, the only cards in his hand are these nominal credits.

However, Emperor Zhou finally had some conscience and reminded him: "There is no problem in giving you approval, but if you can't raise enough manpower and resources yourself, even if you have the approval, it will be difficult to really participate. You have to be mentally prepared."

Lin Yi nodded: "Yes."

Zhou Tianzi thought about it for a while, but finally felt that it was a bit difficult to save face, and asked again: "Are there any other requirements?"

The difficulty of rescuing Wu Wudi is put here. If Lin Yi takes the risk to get involved, he is taking a huge risk and is very likely to completely turn against the Seven Kings. If he only gets a bad check in the end, Emperor Zhou is afraid that he will turn back. Taste to regret.

Now Lin Yi is almost his last life-saving straw. He doesn't want to have any quarrel with Lin Yi because of this kind of thing.

Lin Yi heard this and said: "There is indeed another unkind invitation."

Emperor Zhou perked up and said, "Say."

Lin Yi said: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the Lord Protector's wife?"

Zhou Tianzi recalled for a moment, and his tone was uncertain: "The one who was expelled a while ago?"

Lin Yi nodded: "Exactly, she is now in the Kingdom of God on land. If it is convenient for Your Majesty, can you grant her an amnesty?"

"It's not difficult to grant amnesty..."

Emperor Zhou smacked his lips for a moment, and then reacted: "Are you trying to sell a favor to the Protector?"

Rule 151 bound by Lin Yi is the core asset of the Protectorate, and he still knows this.

Lin Yi did not hide it: "I just happened to meet him. If your Majesty is merciful, I will take advantage of your Majesty and sell him a favor."

Emperor Zhou couldn't help but feel a little funny: "You're welcome."

Speaking of which, although the emperor was a puppet, at least in the eyes of outsiders he was considered superior. On the scene, even the seven kings still maintained a minimum of etiquette.

Lin Yi's attitude of not treating himself as an outsider was quite novel to him.

Emperor Zhou thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. The Protector is not deeply involved with the Seven Kings. If you can win over him, it will be a moderate help."

After saying that, he immediately gave me a pardon.
