Jiang Zining is best at calculating people's hearts. He has been through so many years and has experienced the Ming family and the Wei family in the past, as well as the Feng family and the Fang family later. The foreign relatives and powerful officials have been constantly changing, and even the standing firm Xia Song has fallen. However, he still stands firmly in the court, and now he has finally begun to cover the sky with one hand.
But he probably didn't expect that those who are good at calculating people's hearts will one day be calculated by others.
If Prime Minister Jiang was capable of guessing other people's thoughts, he might not have expected that there would be a weirdo like Shen Chen among the younger generation.
Young Master Lin has known Shen Chen for so long, and he has never seen Shen Chen lose to anyone in this regard. No matter whose thoughts someone has, or how deeply they hide them, he can always tell whether others are sincere or not.
This is probably because he has too many experiences since childhood and has developed this ability, which others cannot learn even if they envy him.
Lin Sanshao glanced at the cup and said woodenly: "Are you sure?"
This question was really out of character. Normally, it was not something a decisive and ruthless person like Young Master Lin would ask, because there are some things that you should not do just because you are sure of them.
But Shen Chen looked at him and didn't think there was anything wrong. He was silent for a moment before saying, "I will do my best in what I can control and try not to make mistakes."
The implication is that one should do one's best and leave the rest to fate.
In fact, most things in the world can only be done in this way. Otherwise, unless everyone becomes a god, there will be nothing else to be desired.
Young Master Lin put his hands behind his head and closed his eyes. He sat there for a while before straightening up again and said inexplicably, "My sister said that even though the emperor has many faults, he is good to her and Xiaoliu."
This Emperor Longqing is really not a good person.
He should bear most of the responsibility for Princess Changle's death.
He was biased towards listening to one side of the story and was extremely suspicious. None of those who followed him to the top or supported him had a good ending.
This is true even for relatives by marriage.
From Empress Ming to Empress Fang and then to Concubine Feng, each of them had given him their true heart, but in the end, each of them died extremely miserably.
He doesn't even trust the person next to him.
Shen Chen's disgust, which he had always concealed very well, finally showed a little at this moment. He smiled sarcastically and said mercilessly: "That's because the Sixth Prince has not grown up yet. Fortunately, he was born when his body could not support it, which satisfied his need to pass on the family line. Otherwise, look at the Fifth Prince and the Fourth Prince. Could it be that he could not foresee his future fate?"
The emperor is already in his old age, but his suspicion still ruins one son after another.
He said that the Fifth Prince had bad intentions and was influenced by Concubine Peng De, but how old was the Fifth Prince
Who has bad intentions
It's just that he feels guilty, so he thinks everyone has bad intentions.
As for the Sixth Prince, it was not because Emperor Longqing cared about him so much, but because he had no other choice and this was the only available son who had never offended him.
But even so, it is only temporary.
If Emperor Longqing was in better health and could hold on for another ten years, and if another little prince was born afterwards, the Sixth Prince would have suffered the same fate as his brothers.
Young Master Lin pursed his lips. Although his face was expressionless, his eyes showed a hint of sarcasm like Shen Chen's. He said softly, "Yes, he just put away his claws because he knew that his time was coming."
Although Concubine Lin Shufei entered the palace for the future of her siblings and had an alliance with Prince Linjiang, she also saw the coldness of Emperor Longqing, but people have feelings after all. After being together for such a long time, no matter whether it was because of her good calculations, Emperor Longqing treated her well.
The Sixth Prince was also cherished and cared for.
Everyone knows those truths. She can see what kind of person Emperor Longqing is. She also knows that he is heartless and disloyal, but in the end, everyone thinks they are special.
It was because of this special thing that Concubine Lin Shu felt a little bit reluctant.
But Young Master Lin immediately persuaded him to stop.
Women are emotional animals and are easily soft-hearted, but men are not.
Emperor Longqing was already powerless.
Jiang Zining seems to be in high spirits now, but he is actually tying himself up in knots - if he is really expected to have the merit of following the dragon and assisting the new emperor to ascend the throne by doing such evil things, then what role will other court officials have
As officials in the same dynasty, no one serves only for one term. So if one offends Jiang Zining in the future, wouldn't that be just waiting for death
The example of Du Ziling is still vividly before your eyes. You are all officials, and you have always followed the rule of leaving a way out for others so that you can meet again in the future. However, it is different for Jiang Zining and his son. They want to kill anyone who offends them.
The Chen family’s affairs, the Du family’s affairs, one after another, who wouldn’t feel sad when reading them
Shen Chen and King Linjiang plotted against Jiang Zining and his son. They thought they were invincible and had gained benefits, but they didn't know that from the moment they raised their tails, they had fallen into the net set by Shen Chen and King Linjiang.
How could a man who had planned for the throne for so many years and even outlasted the previous King Cheng and King Chu, be defeated so easily
Prince Linjiang had already taken advantage of the affairs of the Chen family and the Du family. On the one hand, he had fought and attacked so that the father and son of the Jiang family had lost the support of the people. On the other hand, he had shown weakness and expressed his grievances. He then took the opportunity to win over the people's hearts and look at the enemy and ourselves. This was a three-pronged approach that Prince Linjiang had accomplished so easily.
Others still think that he is powerless to fight back and is at the mercy of others, but they don't know that everything is under his control. He is the pair of eyes behind everyone.
With such a tiger and wolf lurking behind you, how can you have any other thoughts
Young Master Lin sighed inwardly.
If the Sixth Prince had been born a dozen years earlier, he might have been able to compete for the throne.
But if it had really happened a dozen years earlier, the Sixth Prince might not have lived to this day.
He was a very insightful person. After Concubine Lin Shu said that, he told her all these things. Finally, he said: "We have come so many steps. We can't think about things that we shouldn't think about at this time. Otherwise, it will not only hurt others, but also ourselves..." Concubine Lin Shu was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.
She has always been a very smart person. Once others talk to her, she understands everything and never gets stuck in a rut.
After testing Shen Chen's attitude, Lin Sanshao knew that he had made the right suggestion. He smiled and said, "You always see things very clearly. Everything is in your eyes. When you say this, I know it." (To be continued)
