Yuan Hongdao frowned, and listened to the prime minister's soft voice: "I have been in the court for too long, I don't know how many people I have offended, I have two sons and a daughter under my knees, and I originally expected Gong'er to become a weapon, but unexpectedly I suffered such a disaster. Only Dabao and Chen'er...we have to make arrangements for them."
Yuan Hongdao frowned again: "It's just such a change, it seems to be a little more violent."
Lin Ruofu's eyes suddenly softened: "As a father, you don't need to cherish yourself too much. If you talk about seizing the throne, your majesty is in his prime, I'm afraid you and I will be dead by then, so why worry so much." He continued Asked: "Are you sure it's Si Gu's hand?"
Yuan Hongdao nodded: "Yes."
Lin Ruofu took a deep breath: "Sometimes I find that the power in my hands can't be exchanged for anything... But since the Fan family and the Overwatch Council have secretly communicated with each other for so many years, I think that if the old man is added, they should not refuse."
Yuan Hongdao smiled and said: "Fan Shilang, relying on his relationship with His Majesty, made every effort to facilitate this marriage, presumably because he has long expected the boss."
Lin Ruofu smiled and said, "In a few days, I want to see that Fan Xian with my own eyes to see if he is worthy of my daughter."
Yuan Hongdao said again: "The eldest princess..."
Knowing that the chancellor's second son died abnormally and had an inescapable relationship with the Eldest Princess' plan, Yuan Hongdao carefully mentioned her name.
"Li Yunrui asked Wu Bo'an to organize the first assassination, which is a strategy that kills three birds with one stone. If she kills Fan Xian, she can regain the power of the inner treasury. If she moves Gong'er, she can use this as a rope to secure my Xiangfu. It's tied to her body. It's just that she didn't expect that Fan Xian is not so easy to kill, but Wu Bo'an, a bitch, died with my child." Lin Ruofu's eyes flashed two cold lights: "But she still has The most important part is that she has calculated His Majesty's thoughts. Even if Cheng Jushu and his party were able to escape from the capital, she would have falsely passed on my order to let Fang Xiu be killed in Cangzhou. Northern Qi killed people."
Yuan Hongdao frowned and said: "It turns out that the eldest son has guessed that His Majesty wants to make a big move."
Lin Ruofu shook his head: "Your Majesty didn't complete the Northern Expedition back then, and he has always been brooding about it. Now that the princess has given him such a good excuse, even if His Majesty doesn't like her to make her own decisions, she still has to accept her love. It's just that back then The peace treaty is too complicated, His Majesty will at best seize a few small countries this time, and show Bei Qi some color."
Yuan Hongdao sighed, "The Eldest Princess is astonishingly clever, it's really hard to deal with."
Lin Ruofu slowly closed his eyes, and said, "I never thought of dealing with her...Leave it to the juniors."
"Yes, my lord."
At this moment, there was a noise outside the study room. I don't know who dared to make such noise in the middle of the night, but looking at the expressions of the prime minister and Yuan Hongdao, it was obvious who was outside. The door was pushed open, and a fat man in his twenties walked in. The old women and servants behind him didn't hold back. They dared to stand outside the study and plead guilty to the prime minister. Allowed, anyone who enters the study privately will be severely punished. Lin Ruofu waved his hand to signal that he understood, then looked at the big fat man tenderly and said softly, "Dabao, why are you being so misbehaving?"
The big fat man named Dabao has wide eyebrows, his eyes are a little staring, and he seems to have some problems with his brain development. But when he heard Lin Ruofu's words, he immediately calmed down, and said shyly, "Dabao is good, but my younger brother hasn't come back yet."
This is Lin Ruofu's eldest son. He suffered from an illness when he was a child, and he became what he is now. He has always had an IQ of only three or four years old, so he rarely goes out. Everyone in the capital sympathizes with what happened to the Xiangfu, and they don't mention it much. . Dabao was usually the closest to Lin Gong, but he hadn't seen his younger brother for the past two days, so he became irritable.
Lin Ruofu groaned in his heart, felt a pain like a wrench, clutched his chest, calmed down for a long time before persuading softly: "Erbao is going out, and will be back in a few days, Dabao, go to sleep."
Dabao finally calmed down, with a somewhat naive smile on his face, and was led to sleep in the backyard by the old mothers.
After a while of silence, Lin Ruofu said coldly: "I only have one son and one daughter, and Dabao looks like this. Brother Yuan, what do you think I should do?"
Yuan Hongdao frowned: "For the sake of the eldest son, it is not a good idea for Miss Chen to marry Fan Xian. After all, it seems that it is difficult for Mr. Fan to escape political strife, and it will be extremely difficult to live a stable life in the future. If the eldest son is entrusted to It's not too convenient for Miss Chen."
Lin Ruofu shook his head, and there was a chill in his words: "As long as his surname is Fan, he is doomed to escape from these nets, so I would rather he be a cruel and merciless person, so as to keep Chen'er and her elder brother safe forever..."
After saying this, he immediately regained his composure and walked to the desk, opened the veil, looked at the big picture of the world behind the scenes, and began to frown in silence. His eyes occasionally glanced in the direction of Dongyi City, but most of them stayed there. In the north of Qing Kingdom, there are those intricate little vassal states between Qing Kingdom and Northern Qi.
After a long time, Lin Ruofu frowned and said, "I have to come up with a strategy right away. Although it may not be a big battle, and the two sides may not have direct contact, if the northern counties want to transport food and horses to those small countries, they must be prepared in advance. .”
Yuan Hongdao responded, and then he heard the prime minister start to cough, coughing too fast, it seemed that some water was coming out of the corner of his eyes. The prime minister stood in front of the map with his hands behind his back, frowning and planning, as if he did not lose a biological son today. Yuan Hongdao looked at his back and sighed in his heart. Although he was rich and powerful in this life, he didn't have any comfortable days. It can be said that he missed his whole life when he saw the princess.
———————————————
All of these things happened in one day, and no one knew what these undercurrent transactions or quarrels meant. The meeting between Si Nan Bo Fan Jian and Chen Pingping, the private meeting between the prime minister and the eldest princess, and the entire court, the people who knew these two things would not exceed Fan Xian's ten fingers.
So Fan Xian didn't know that his future had been arranged on a golden road.
If the past few months after entering Beijing were like the darkness before dawn, thick black like viscous ink would smear his facial features, making him feel stressed and unable to relax. Then in the following days, suddenly it was as if a god brought a basin of clear water and splashed it on his face, which made him feel extremely refreshed and at ease, and also made him extremely sober.
These days, he has been hypnotizing himself that the death of his second brother-in-law has nothing to do with him. Only in this way can he face Lin Wan'er, who is the most difficult for him to face at this time. Ever since Lin Wan'er found out about her second brother's death, her spirits had been a little low. Although the siblings hadn't seen each other a few times, they were connected by flesh and blood, so they felt a little sad after all. Fan Xian saw these things in his eyes, and felt a little uncomfortable, although the second uncle was the murderer behind the scenes who wanted to kill him—he sometimes felt that he was a bit cold-blooded and sick, because if he heard about the Fan Sizhe died, maybe he wouldn't feel the slightest bit of sadness.
Of course, the current situation is different. The Liu family seems to have acquiesced in the current situation. The Liu family in Kyoto also smelled something unusual and gave the Liu family enough information for reference. Stop Fan Sizhe from wandering around the capital with Fan Xian.
What reassured Fan Xian the most was that no one seemed to suspect that he had something to do with the death of the prime minister's second son, including the prime minister. In fact, he and Prince Jing were a little worried about this matter. Wu Bo'an and Lin Gong hid it in such a hidden way that even the Overwatch Council couldn't find it out for a while, so who else could find it except for the four masters in the world? As long as no one knew the relationship between Fan Xian and Wu Zhu, no one would have thought that Fan Xian would be related to Lin Gong's death.
What was even more unexpected to Fan Xian was that after multiple messages, he vaguely received a message from the prime minister's mansion that the prime minister expressed a certain degree of approval for the marriage in October, just as Fan Xian kept wondering if it was the old man with gray hair. When someone gave away a black-haired man and was really disheartened, the old treacherous Sinan Bo Fan Jian understood the reason behind this matter before anyone else in the court and the public: the prime minister and the East Palace or the eldest princess did not know why. There was a suspicion for some reason, this was Lin Ruofu looking for a new investment direction, perhaps it was a sign that the political center of the prime minister's mansion began to shift to the second prince.
The two assassinations, one after the other, shook the sky of Kyoto like two spring thunders, but there was no rain after the spring thunders, and things gradually faded away, but the prime minister seemed to be heartbroken and became sad. Some are disheartened and lazy, and seldom go to court due to illness. The crippled Dean Chen didn't go to court very much, he just stayed in the yard and occasionally issued a few orders. Thinking of this, Fan Xian always wondered why Chen Pingping didn't summon him after returning to Beijing. He didn't know at this time that the old cripple had already played voyeurism in the dungeon. What was even more puzzling was that since Chen Pingping had returned to Beijing, where did Fei T go
In any case, after this short but tragic confrontation, all parties in the DPRK and China paid the price of a few lives and rebuilt a somewhat fragile balance. Some people accepted the changes that had to be accepted, such as the change of control of the internal treasury after a few years, and some people began to look for another way to protect themselves and their families, such as the prime minister. These changes are undoubtedly extremely beneficial to Fan Xian, at least he doesn't have to worry too much about his personal safety. Until then, he wrote a letter to his grandma in Danzhou, telling the old man that he had a good life in Kyoto, and asked her not to worry too much.
After spring comes summer. Although this is nonsense, for Fan Xian, who has worked so hard to get a foothold in the capital, his life has finally become less rainy and more sunny and happy. It seemed that he was slowly waving to himself over there.
Summer is here, will the day of big wedding in autumn be far behind
