437 Fifth Highness, you really don’t believe in the full moon?(1/2)
The emperor has always intended to gradually take back the rights in Lin Guo Gongzhi. This time, no one can say no to Lin Donghe!
The second prince has made such great sacrifices for the safety of the dynasty. If Duke Lin still doesn't know how to advance or retreat, the emperor will naturally have something to say.
The queen had always been watching jokes, but suddenly her own interests were involved, and the queen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
The emperor and the queen mother loved the prince, but they only used her natal family for a few years. In the past few years, the world was at peace, and the emperor trained Li Jingtian and others. The Nalan family who had helped the emperor naturally lost their biggest support.
Use value.
Over the years, Duke Linguo and Nalanyan secretly pocketed a lot of benefits. The emperor and the queen mother just turned a blind eye, but it was not time to take it back.
If we really want to attack the Nalan family, we must wait until they relax and feel at ease!
The emperor and the queen mother were just trying to paralyze Duke Lin. When it is time to take action, they will never be soft!
Duke Lin Guo and Nalan Yan have been accustomed to living a stable life these years, and they rely on the identity and status of the prince. Just because the emperor won't touch the prince, doesn't mean he won't deal with them!
Living in peace without thinking about danger is their current fate!
Duke Linguo was given a hard slap by the emperor and was now on pins and needles. But if he left immediately, his dissatisfaction with the emperor would be too obvious.
"Dad, doesn't this make it clear that you don't trust us? Even if you want to take it back, it should be given to the deputy general! Even if it rains or winds, it won't be Lin Donghe's turn!"
Nalanyan was young after all, so he couldn't help but complain. Although his voice was not high, he was the center of attention at the moment.
Duke Lin Guo frowned and glared at his son fiercely.
Does the Emperor want to temporarily take back their rights?
He was obviously looking for an opportunity early! On the surface, it seemed like it was to make up for Lin Donghe, but Lin Donghe was the emperor's son after all. After going around in circles, the defender was back in the hands of the emperor!
It's hard to think of the fact that he made great contributions to the capital of the Celestial Empire in the early years. The rebels rebelled twenty years ago, when the emperor had just ascended the throne. It was he who defended the city for ninety days before reinforcements finally arrived! In the most difficult time, he was a great general.
I survived by eating wild vegetables with the soldiers!
It’s only been twenty years!
In order to help the prince stabilize his empire, the emperor treated him like this?
Even though he is the prince's grandfather, the emperor still can't believe him!
Although Nalan Yan stopped talking, the expression on his face was even uglier than before.
Duke Lin Guo glanced at his panicked daughter, and then at Concubine An, who was calm and peaceful. No wonder the emperor had favored Concubine An for so many years and was always lukewarm towards his daughter. If today's matter were to happen to Concubine An,
I'm afraid my daughter's smile has already been revealed on the surface!
Although Duke Lin is a military commander, he understands these principles thoroughly!
The emperor now has Linghu Hongxi and An Jie in civil affairs, and Li Jingtian and the king of the Western Regions in military affairs. They all restrict each other but do not interfere with each other. Moreover, there will be an election for the military champion next month, and then the emperor can elect generals for the prince. In this way
Come, the Nalan family will have no place to stand!
For the emperor, if there are more useful ministers, the old ones will naturally be eliminated!
Lin Donghe was already on his knees to thank him, and the expression on his face was as cautious and serious as ever.
But at this moment, the Queen Mother felt that Lin Donghe was terrible! It was not simple!
Is this grandson too well hidden?! He doesn’t even feel the least grievance or embarrassment, unless he really has the intention of not fighting for anything, or the city is so deep that even she and the emperor cannot see through it!
If it's the latter, wouldn't it be dangerous for the emperor to give him the position of guarding the city?
The Queen Mother’s worries are naturally also Full Moon’s worries!
On the premise of protecting his own interests, the emperor tried his best to make up for Lin Donghe, but in the final analysis, the identity of the general and the prince is just an illusion, and real power can speak for everything!
In the emperor's heart, he underestimated Lin Donghe!
If the position of city defense is given to Lin Donghe, for Lin Donghe, in addition to the humiliation of the secret marriage, it will actually give him the opportunity to fight back in the future! But the emperor thinks that everything is under his control!
In time, the emperor will regret his decision today!
It's a done deal, even the Queen Mother has stopped talking, even the Queen Mother doesn't agree with it in her heart!
A luncheon made everyone frightened.
The luncheon ended, but because of Lin Donghe's incident, the emperor and the queen mother decided to continue holding the dinner party in Chengqian Palace. Everyone dispersed tiredly, thinking that there would be a dinner party in a few hours, but they were all trembling and did not dare to say anything. I didn't know that it would happen again in the evening.
Something weird and scary happened!
Not to mention seeing ghosts in broad daylight, but it might be even worse at night——
——
Before Shang Moxin left Man Yue's side, she whispered,
"Sorry, I was abrupt."
"The matter has come to an end. It's useless to talk more. Please take care of yourself." Man Yue lowered her head and whispered a few words.
"You should also be more careful."
After saying that, Shang Moxin hugged the little princess and left surrounded by everyone.
Ningjing finally had the opportunity to stand next to Man Yue, and her hands holding Man Yue were trembling.
"Miss, shall we go to Weiyang Palace to rest now?"
Just now, the Queen Mother arranged for all the female family members to have tea and rest in Weiyang Palace, while the courtiers followed the Emperor for a walk in the Imperial Garden to enjoy the scenery.
Man Yue nodded and raised her hand to hold Ning Jing's hand. Suddenly, she held a big, cold and rough hand.
Man Yue's eyes froze for a moment.
She and Ningjing had a secret message. No matter what angle she raised her hand, Ningjing would support her, but how could it happen?
Just when Man Yue was about to let go of the other party's hand, he held her back instead.
"Miss, slave—" Ningjing stopped talking.
She really didn't see when the Fifth Highness arrived behind her. As soon as the eldest lady raised her hand, she was ready to help him, but the Fifth Highness was obviously one step ahead of her.
In the main hall, most of the people dispersed.
Very few people paid attention to this scene.
Man Yue could not speak for the time being. She was not sure whether it was Lin Dongyao or not! Because she could not see clearly, if she made a mistake, Lin Dongyao would be able to understand it with just a little thought.
"Your Highness, please come here."
Ningjing saw Man Yue's hesitation and spoke softly.
Man Yue blinked, lowered her eyes, and said coldly,
"What is your highness doing? The wedding is only ten days away, so your highness is so anxious?"
"To me, ten days is too long, because in just a few hours, you can still do earth-shattering things! Can't you?"
There was no blame in Lin Dongyao's voice, but rather teasing and appreciation.
"Man Yue doesn't understand what His Highness means. Can Your Highness let go?" she asked coldly.
"No! Let your maid wait outside Weiyang Palace, and I will take you to meet your mother-in-law."
Concubine An has returned to Xuanji Palace. Lin Dongyao said this, naturally he wanted to create an opportunity to be alone with Man Yue.
But in this way, things that Man Yue can't see clearly will be exposed. Without Ningjing by her side, there will be no one to give her a signal. She hasn't finished her drama today! There is still one last step to make her blindness a matter of course.
Push it out!
And the last step is to break off the engagement!
"Ms. Linghu, please!"
Nian Zheng had already separated Man Yue and Ning Jing and made a gesture of invitation.
Man Yue stood still and frowned.
"Linghu Manyue! Where are you going? Have you not finished what I told you last time?"
At this time, the prince's somewhat impatient voice sounded in front of Man Yue.
Lin Dongyao's hand holding her hand suddenly tightened, with no intention of letting go.
"His Royal Highness, Man Yue is about to explain to His Highness the Crown Prince today." Man Yue understood that Lin Jian was trying to save herself.
"Of course you have to give me an explanation in the near future. During the few months when you were an errand in the Prince's Mansion, you also interfered in many affairs of the Prince's Mansion. Now you have left, leaving a mess for other people, and
There are a lot of things that are not explained clearly!”
"Your Highness, I'll go right now!"
Man Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but it was indescribably difficult to pull her hand out of Lin Dongyao's iron-like palm.
Even if you can't see the expression on someone's face clearly, Man Yue can still guess how cold and livid he looks!
Obviously, a strong attack will not work, and it may even anger someone!
Then we can only change to a gentle policy!
"Your Highness, Fifth Prince, can you let Man Yue finish her work in the Prince's Mansion first, and then go to Xuanji Palace to visit Concubine An?"
"Can't!"
