Chapter 721： declare war

Lin Tingyan's heart is full of mixed feelings at this moment. He has lost his confidant, but he has watched all the old members of the Yang family being taken over by Chu Nanzhi, but he has nothing to do.

If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Right now, he can only endure the humiliation and bear the burden, waiting for the times to change.

Thinking of Yang Runchen's previous advice, he couldn't help turning his gaze to the indignant Empress Dowager Tian Yuchan.

These people are narrow-minded and don't know how to work around at all. When the news of tonight is spread, the disciples of Yang's old party will naturally only be grateful for Chu Nanzhi and King Ning, and they will only hate King Qinghe's party.

But right now, he has to find a way to make friends with these short-sighted people.

After all, they hold 300,000 Qinghe cavalry in their hands, which is enough to shock the Quartet.

After thinking about it in his heart, he had no choice but to agree with Chu Nanzhi's intention: "Your Majesty is indeed a benevolent king of the generation. After this incident, the old Yang Clan will definitely appreciate your kindness and return from the wrong way."

After hearing this, Tian Yuchan realized belatedly that Princess Pingning was trying to attract people's hearts.

Sighing secretly, she had to admit that this woman was really a tough one to deal with.

After bidding farewell to everyone resentfully, he led his daughter-in-law Tang Yulan and the palace staff back to Yong'an Palace in a hurry.

At this moment, Yin Enci had a better impression of Lin Tingyan, and seeing that it was almost dawn, he immediately ordered: "Tingyan, there has been a huge change in the palace, and Nanzhi's residence may not know the situation in the palace yet, so Aijia will work hard." You personally escorted her back home."

Looking at Lin Jinsheng, who looked so pale, he shook his head and sighed: "I'll leave it to you to preside over tomorrow's year-end ceremony. The emperor was frightened and needs to rest in the palace."

Lin Jinsheng wanted to refute, but he was the one who knew it best, so he didn't dare to be brave.

He is still thinking about lingering for a while longer, waiting for the queen mother to die, so he can only follow Yin Enci's wishes: "Since the late emperor left, the only one left that the kings in Beijing can rely on is Uncle Wang. , it’s hard work for Uncle Wang.”

Lin Tingyan was overwhelmed by flattery. He never thought that his ancestors would entrust him with hosting such important events as the year-end ceremonies. It might be a sign of a new monarch. It seems that it is wise for him to abandon Yang Runchen.

In order to make everyone believe in him, he suddenly thought of someone, and said with awe-inspiring righteousness: "It is the duty of the minister to share the worries of your majesty. When mentioning the late emperor, the minister thought of the eldest princess Luo Tong. I heard from the palace people that she was the one who brought people together." Release the King of Nandu from Youting Palace, and ask His Majesty to severely punish this unfaithful and hypocritical Taoist."

"These two sisters are really better than the other, which is not worrying."

Yin Enci shook his head helplessly, but he couldn't bear to think about the friendship of the late emperor.

He fled into the Daoist sect disheartened back then, and would rather let the old King Qinghe kill his own son than take away the three young eldest princesses. It is only because the three sisters refused to keep their duty and let him down. painstaking efforts.

Chu Nanzhi was listening, and suddenly had a new understanding of the sixth emperor uncle.

I thought he was a man of flesh and blood before, but now it seems that he is really a sanctimonious hypocrite.

The old people in Weilan Palace, coupled with Yang Runchen's words just now, and the expression of Nandu King's death, he didn't know until his death that Yang Runchen's subordinates were all loyal to people from Weilan Palace.

Presumably, he guessed that he was cheated, so he chose to die in despair.

If Yang Runchen really wanted to assist the King of Nandu with all his heart, how could Feng Yue expose his adultery with Concubine Yue?

It can be seen that what Yang Runchen really wants to protect is the despised King of Beibin.

Although she doesn't have enough evidence to support her conjecture, all the signs from her encounter with Lin Tingyan show that this guy is the mastermind behind the scenes.

In terms of strategizing, I am really inferior to him.

Being able to quietly and cruelly abandon all his confidantes who are desperate for him, his rock-solid heart is absolutely unmatched by others.

Looking at Lin Tingyan who looked very calm with a smile, Chu Nanzhi asked meaningfully: "The third uncle committed suicide, and now there are only two aunts and the sixth uncle left in the blood of the late emperor. I wonder how the sixth uncle thinks how to deal with this matter?" Two outrageous people?"

Lin Tingyan gritted his teeth secretly, and said firmly: "My niece and daughter-in-law are kind-hearted, and begged His Majesty to forgive the old party of the Yang family, but my two imperial sisters are not easy-going lamps. Die the two eldest princesses."

Yin Enci sighed sadly. If all the descendants of the late emperor were slaughtered, how would he meet the heroic spirit of the late emperor after a hundred years? After thinking about it, he finally couldn't bear to look at the emperor, shook his head slowly and said: "It is your aunt after all, It is also the most important thing of the late emperor, so let the two princesses be abolished and sent to the imperial tomb to guard the mausoleum for their father and previous emperors for the rest of their lives."

"According to the emperor's grandmother's will."

Lin Jinsheng nodded in agreement.

Lin Tingyan felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Although my three imperial sisters have lived in seclusion in Nanhuaguan for many years, relying on their status as eldest princesses, they have lived happily and happily all these years, no worse than in the palace. It's better to have a good time if the disciples guard the imperial mausoleum together.

"That's all, Nan Zhi, you should go back to your home quickly, lest your mother and elders worry about it, and the Ai family won't keep you any longer."

Yin Enci urged, but he was a little bit reluctant, thinking about the little ones, and immediately ordered: "Have a good rest for the night, the Ai family and the emperor will prepare a family banquet in the palace tomorrow night, and send someone to pick up your family again in the evening." Come into the palace."

"Yes."

Chu Nanzhi responded, bid farewell to the emperor and empress dowager, and followed Lin Tingyan out of Chengqian Palace.

Sitting in the carriage, Lin Tingyan led the imperial guards to **** her all the way back to the mansion. From time to time on the road, he could meet several groups of soldiers running in a hurry.

The cries of women and children crying for help came out of the alley one after another.

All this made Lin Tingyan very worried.

He began to regret that he didn't heed Yang Runchen's advice and killed Chu Nanzhi on the way to Beijing. Now he can only find the right time to get rid of this serious trouble.

Arriving at the gate of the mansion, Chu Nanzhi slowly got off the carriage, seeing the half-hidden mansion gate, she knew that Liu Yun must be waiting for her again.

By the light from the dim lantern, she turned her head to look at Lin Tingyan who was sitting on horseback.

The cold wind was blowing, and there seemed to be endless loneliness on that charming face.

After this incident, she deeply realized that she might break with this ally who had reached a short-term alliance.

The two of them looked at each other tacitly, and Chu Nanzhi took a long breath: "Once you succeed in everything, the Sixth Emperor Uncle is now favored by His Majesty and the old ancestors, and he will rise to the top in the future. Uncle Huang and these innocent souls awakened?"

"Nephew and daughter-in-law are serious. This king is only for the sake of the country forever. As for the lives and deaths of others, although I feel heartbroken, they deserve what they deserve, and death is not a pity."

Lin Tingyan looked up at the pitch-black sky, and heaved a long sigh, then turned his horse's head and rode away.
