Chapter 670 The scruples of Princess Chu
Hong Ling stepped down and the Princess Chu who had been sitting quietly in the room spoke: "Prince, can this Fuyou County Lord really restrain Xiao Jingchen? Can a woman have such a great influence on Xiao Jingchen?"
To be honest, Princess Chu felt that this plan was not reliable. Just a woman, Xiao Jingchen could not change any decision for her, let alone the emperor's order.
The King of Chu sneered, "If it is someone next to me, I am not sure, but Xiao Jingchen is fully sure. He seems to be cruel and ruthless, but in fact his personality is very similar to his short-lived mother. With her around, Xiao Jingchen will never dare to act rashly."
"What's more, the purpose of this king's kidnap her was not to threaten Xiao Jingchen."
The Princess Chu was stunned and then realized, "The prince's target is the Shen family?"
The King of Chu smiled happily, "Yes, the Shen family is the king's goal. As long as the Shen family agrees to cooperate with me, the matter of breaking Kyoto will be more than half successful. A few days ago, the border generals escorted the Shen family and the Northern Di envoys into the capital and brought back thousands of troops. Although the number is not large, these people are all elites. In addition, the city-confed generals in Kyoto are also Chen Lin's original subordinates, and they have always respected Chen Lin. As long as he comes forward to speak, the generals will naturally agree to surrender to me."
The Princess Chu smiled: "With Chen Lin, our great cause will not be unsuccessful. But Chen Lin has always been stubborn. Will he obey us for the sake of Lin Ruan? The Shen family now knows the truth about Chen Mengjun's death. Now Shen Lin hates us so much. He is afraid that he won't let us do it so easily."
The King of Chu was very confident: "It is precisely because they knew why Chen Mengjun died that they cared more about Lin Ruan's life and death. Princess, rest assured, I have a way to make Chen Lin willingly agree."
The Princess Chu was not so optimistic, but she had already reached this point and had nothing to say.
She had said it more than ten years ago, but she still couldn't stop the King of Chu from wanting to ascend to the throne. Since she couldn't stop it, she could only pull the whole family to support him.
Anyway, they had been tied to a boat, and even if she did nothing, the emperor would have long since taken her and her parents' home to the King of Chu's camp. If the King of Chu's plan failed, then she and her parents' home would not have a good idea.
Since this is the case, it is better to fight and pull my mother's family to support the great cause of the King of Chu. If it succeeds, she will be the mother of a country and her son will be the next monarch.
Although the risks are high, it can be said that wealth and honor are in danger.
What's more, the King of Chu may not lose.
They have been preparing for many years. They have their own troops in several prefectures around Kyoto. As long as the King of Chu gives the order, they can attack Kyoto immediately.
If Chen Lin's help is also available, it will only be a matter of time before the emperor is taken down.
Princess Chu thought about this and felt a little more stable. "Would Lin Ruan be inappropriate to live in Lin's yard?"
Lin Xiang'er was not even a concubine, so it was inappropriate to arrange Lin Ruan in her yard.
And she was a little worried that Lin Xianger's low-key embryo was very shameless in seducing the King of Chu. The King of Chu has been going to her yard many times these days. Lin Ruan is as beautiful as a flower. The King of Chu is in and out of that yard. If he thinks about her, it will be troublesome.
When the Princess Chu thought of what King Chu said just now, her heart couldn't help but feel tight.
Lin Ruan has a special identity and a grandfather family like the Shen family. It is hard to guarantee that the King of Chu would not accept Lin Ruan in order to win the support of the Shen family.
No, it’s not just a cap. I’m afraid that in order to satisfy the Shen family, a fair wife is indispensable.
She has been trying her best to accompany the King of Chu to conquer the world over the years. Seeing that victory is in sight, how could she bear it when a flat wife emerged?
What's more, she is old and has no longer a look. Lin Ruan is young and beautiful, and has strong backing. In addition, she is also a capable person, so it is hard to guarantee that she will not surpass her status.
Therefore, she had to put Lin Ruan under her nose.
I have to say that the Princess Chu still knows her husband very well. The King of Chu did have this idea in his heart, but he was not easy to say something, and then said: "Lin has a grudge with Lin Ruan. If you put Lin Ruan there, Lin will definitely keep a close eye on her every move."
The Princess Chu lowered her eyes and laughed: "Prince, the man Lin is too stupid. I just heard that she had an unhappy relationship with the county lord Fuyou, so she almost let the county lord take it naked. Continue to let the county lord stay with her, it will inevitably make the county lord unhappy. If something happens again and makes the Shen family unhappy, it will not be beautiful."
The King of Chu bit his cheek and thought about it, and felt that it made sense. Lin Xianger's yard was too small, so it was inconvenient. So he asked, "Can the princess make good arrangements?"
The Princess Chu said seriously: "From my opinion, let's put the county lord in my yard. The conditions in this mountain are difficult, and the other sisters' yards are not spacious enough. In addition, they have a lot of staff, so they can feel uncomfortable when they arrange the county lord. My yard is quite large, and my identity is here, so I will take care of the county lord myself. I think the Shen family will also enjoy it."
After thinking about it, she said, "Since we want to cooperate with the Shen family, it is better to use soft ones than to use hard ones. I will first establish a good relationship with the county lord. If the county lord is moved, she will come forward to talk to Shen Lin about the cooperation, so as to ensure that it will be twice the result with half the effort."
After letting go of this, the King of Chu could not refuse, and nothing was as important as his great cause for a thousand years.
So he nodded and said, "Then let the Princess arrange the Princess Fuyou in your yard as the princess said. The princess will worry more about the next day. If she can persuade her to come forward and persuade Shen Lin, that would be the best thing. If she can't, I will find another way."
The Princess Chu turned to him and then breathed a sigh of relief after he walked far away.
She must keep a close eye on Lin Ruan during this period and must not give the King of Chu any chance to approach her alone.
It was already evening when Lin Ruan woke up. Hong Ling and Biluo heard the movement, pushed the door and came in. Just as they were about to speak, Lin Ruan said coldly: "I'll let you in? Get out!"
The two of them relied on being the one sent by the King of Chu, and thought Lin Ruan was just a prisoner, so they did not take Lin Ruan seriously. They said with a bit arrogant expression: "County Lord, the princess, send someone to invite you over."
Lin Ruan sneered: "I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
The two of them were still standing still, looking silently urging.
