Chapter 742: wishful thinking
"I booked a place on the top floor of the Wangfeng Tower in the south of the city today. That place is the best place to see the scenery in Jingling City. Brothers and sisters, let everyone go with me. I also invited many relatives and female relatives. Let's go together, everyone gathers together to have a good talk, and we can watch the lantern festival when it gets dark."
Tang Yulan suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and urged her to go out with a smile on her face.
"Thank you, Mrs. Wang."
Chu Nanzhi remembered that Wangfenglou was not far from Chaoguangmen, so it was convenient for her to have a banquet here.
So Abi and Achun immediately asked Liu Yun and the elders to leave the house with the five little guys, arranged a carriage, and went straight to the watchtower.
Qinghe Prince's Mansion in Beijing is unusually quiet today, as if there is no festive atmosphere.
Lin Jinke was sitting in the living room, and after a while, someone came in to report: "Your Highness, the King of Beibin has arrived."
"Quick please."
Lin Jinke got up happily, and walked to the door to greet her.
When the two met, Lin Tingyan couldn't wait to ask: "How, Jin Ke has arranged everything properly?"
"Don't worry, Liu Huangshu, I will definitely not make mistakes in my work."
Lin Jinke's eyebrows stretched, and he smiled triumphantly: "The Tang family's 50,000 pieces of songs are already waiting in the west and north of the city, only a dozen miles away from where my Qinghe Iron Cavalry is stationed, forming horns with each other, just waiting for me You can directly enter Jingling City with the order."
After thinking for a while, he looked at Lin Tingyan full of concerns: "It's just that the queen mother doesn't want me to directly attack the emperor, but only let me lead the army to frighten the courtiers. This makes me feel embarrassed."
"The queen mother is too benevolent after all."
Lin Tingyan persuaded earnestly: "Jin Ke, don't come when this opportunity is too late. Right now is a great opportunity for you to make contributions. Don't miss it. You and I know the whole story of what happened in Pingning Prefecture. Wait until the imperial envoys come back. Not only will Jinxiao's background be revealed, but even you, the mastermind, will be confessed."
"Sixth Emperor Uncle can rest assured, the son-in-law will definitely not betray me."
Lin Jinke said solemnly.
"Even so, can you ensure that the ancestors won't persuade His Majesty to make Jinxiao the heir apparent immediately?"
Seeing that he became hesitant again, Lin Tingyan reprimanded dissatisfiedly: "Don't tell me you want to sit and wait for death, then no one will sympathize with you, don't take chances, once Ji Rongheng relaxes, it will be a breeze for Jinxiao to enter Beijing thing."
"According to the opinion of the emperor, what should we do?"
Lin Jinke asked hesitantly.
"Naturally, we should immediately enter Jingling City, control the entire palace, take down Nan Zhi's mother and son tonight, use this as a threat, and then accuse the ancestors and His Majesty of deliberately protecting King Pingning."
Lin Tingyan smiled coldly and said: "I have sent someone to intercept and kill the imperial envoy to Pingning Prefecture on the way, then we only need to direct the disaster to Jinxiao, and I also sent a letter to Shita City two days ago , Let Xie Jingzhan of Baiyu Kingdom send troops, he will intercept Prince Xie from returning to the country, once you control the situation in Jingling City, you can send troops to pacify Ningzhou in the name of avenging Princess Yuanxi."
"Prince Xie has disappeared for some days, and I have been worried that he will secretly return to Bai Yu Kingdom."
Lin Jinke frowned tightly, and squeezed his fist: "If you say that I hold 300,000 Qinghe cavalry, I could have entered Jingling City openly, I have long wanted to have a good fight with King Pingning, and let him Having seen the majesty of my Qinghe Iron Cavalry, he would not dare to compete with me, using these shady methods is not what a gentleman would do."
"What time is it, Jin Ke, you are still showing off your prestige."
Lin Tingyan persuaded helplessly: "Even if you have 300,000 cavalry, if you can't immediately stabilize the situation in Jingling City, how can you ensure that the Rongdi tribe will not attack aggressively at this time?"
"They just want money, food, silk and cloth. At worst, I will cede the land north of Hanzhou to them, and it will save me from sending heavy troops for defense."
Lin Jinke snorted coldly with disdain: "Send more gold and silver beauties to make them happy for a while, and I will bring them back after I stabilize the situation."
"You are really confused, how can you give up the inheritance of your ancestors."
Lin Tingyan didn't expect this guy to take his ancestor's foundation so lightly, and sighed softly: "Rong Di is a greedy wolf. If you give it to Hanzhou, they will only become more ambitious. At present, the strength of Jingling City is weak, and the three battalions are still weak. If there is time to supplement it in the future, the 80,000 elite in your hands are enough to conquer Jingling City, although my idea is a bit dirty, it is a once-and-for-all strategy.”
After a pause, he persuaded again earnestly: "The old saying is good, when people see the brilliance of your success, they will forget the darkness of your means. How can there be any bright and upright way for this royal competition? If you want to I am afraid that it is impossible to inherit the throne in a legitimate way in this life."
After hearing his words, Lin Jinke finally stopped hesitating and replied resolutely: "Just listen to the emperor's uncle. I will personally lead the troops into the city tonight."
"That's more or less."
Lin Tingyan nodded in satisfaction, then took his leave and left.
It's just that after coming out of Prince Qinghe's Mansion, he didn't go back to the mansion, but instead went to the palace and appeared in Zhaochun Palace.
Yin Enci was worrying about his granddaughter-in-law's family leaving Beijing at this time, discussing with Lin Jinshu how to ensure their mother and son return to Luyan Port smoothly.
Hearing that Lin Tingyan had come, he led Lin Jinshu to the front hall, sat down, looked at the impenetrable concubine calmly, and asked slowly, "Why does the sixth son want to come to the palace for a big holiday?" to visit Ai's family?"
"Tomorrow the court will be restored. Recently, the son-in-law has noticed that there are secret gatherings of the Tang family's trilogy in the suburbs of Beijing. The son-in-law is worried that something will change, so he entered the palace to play the queen secretly."
Lin Tingyan pretended to be worried.
Yin Enci and Lin Jinshu looked at each other in dismay. They had already expected that the barbarian Lin Jinke would change after the restoration of the dynasty. What he was waiting for was this day, so he pretended to be surprised and asked: "In the opinion of King Beibin, Qing He What does the king want?"
"I'm afraid I want to take advantage of the situation to force the palace."
Lin Tingyan said solemnly: "It's only been a month since the matter of the king of Nandu, and the queen mother has to guard against it."
"He has a heavy army in his hands. If he really wants to rebel, the Ai family really has nothing to do with him."
Yin Enci sighed helplessly.
"My son has a way."
Lin Tingyan suddenly knelt down and begged earnestly: "Please take back the old ancestor's order, leave Princess Pingning's mother and son behind, and King Xuan Pingning personally **** Tang's son-in-law and Princess Qian to Beijing for confrontation. Anger, he is thinking about the brotherhood with His Majesty, and he will also worry about the Rongdi tribe, so he will not make any changes."
"Uncle Liu Huang really has a good plan."
Lin Jinshu looked at Lin Tingyan resentfully, and said with a sneer, "Isn't this in line with King Qinghe's wishes? Brother Jinxiao enters Beijing at this time, and he can go back safe and sound?"
