Chapter 178 Conspiracy and trickery (2)
Now he did not support the idea of ​​neutrality that he proposed at the beginning. Now that the emperor is pressing every step of the way, they are not without resistance.They also didn't want to seek refuge with Prince He, and they didn't want to overthrow the emperor's rule. After all, the Ziyuan dynasty had been very prosperous under the emperor's rule in recent years.But the recent actions of the emperor really touched their interests. If they continue to indulge in this way, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Now Prince He also wants the teacher to support him. As long as the teacher supports Prince He, Prince He's grand plan will be realized as soon as possible, and then their prosperity and status in the Ziyuan Dynasty will be preserved.There is nothing wrong with them being the emperor's subjects, and it is not wrong for them to share the worries of the emperor, but the premise is that the emperor cannot touch their fundamental interests. The relationship between kings and subjects has been a very delicate one since ancient times. Once the balance point is out of balance, No one knows what will happen at that time, either the emperor will be overthrown or they will be wiped out.

When the current emperor came to the throne, Prime Minister Lin could be considered to have contributed a lot. If Prime Minister Lin hadn't been there to mediate, perhaps Zi Qingcang would not be on the throne now.At that time, the Lin family did not have a woman of the right age to marry the emperor. Otherwise, the current emperor's position would not be empty. That position must belong to a woman from the Lin family. Now that the emperor has ascended the throne, the court has gradually stabilized. There have been few wars even on the frontier in the past two years.Now the Ziyuan dynasty is peaceful inside and out, but now the emperor wants to kill the donkey, they will never wait to be slaughtered so obediently!
Prime Minister Lin glanced at Wang Yanbin, "It's true that Prince He wanted me to support him, but we haven't given him an answer since the news of him came, and Prince He never sent anyone to contact me again. Originally, Prince He wanted to cooperate with me, but now I am still a little uncertain about Prince He's thoughts. As for whether Prince He wants to cooperate with us now, I have no idea. After all, the entire family of the Ziyuan Dynasty It's not just my Lin family, if you and the prince win over several other big families, it won't be surprising if you have the strength of my Lin family."

"Teacher, this is absolutely impossible. If we really take refuge with the Prince now, I am afraid that we will die without a whole body before the day when we get into trouble with the Prince. Teacher, you must think carefully, now Things have become like this, the emperor must be watching everyone's reaction, maybe the emperor has secretly sent someone to monitor us, if we rashly seek refuge with Prince He at this time, I am afraid the emperor will not let it go. Teacher, no matter what Said, now the emperor is still the emperor, and the prince did not sit in that seat. No matter how high the position of the prince is, a word from the emperor is enough to destroy the entire Lin family. By then, we will not be able to lose money. Teacher, My current thinking is that we can't make such a hasty decision. Since the emperor has not done anything that really touches our fundamental interests, it means that the emperor still has concerns in his heart. At least the emperor will not eradicate several big families now. It also gives us a better chance. We can also use this time to arrange the layout well, so that there is really nothing to do. Teacher, I think the emperor's current move to test people's ideas is better than eradicating The big families are obvious, no matter how much the emperor wants to eradicate the big families, as long as the emperor doesn't have us in his hands, the emperor will not dare to do so rashly, unless the emperor really doesn't care about the opinions of the people. Water can carry a boat and capsize it. Presumably, the emperor knows this truth better than us. The emperor will not want to be overthrown right now. What the emperor is waiting for now is a bird who can't help it. If the teacher rashly takes refuge with the prince, then It fell right into the emperor's arms, and the emperor will have a reason to completely eradicate the Lin family. The common people will only say that the Lin family is daring and wanting to rebel, but the emperor's reputation will not be damaged in any way. Therefore, the teacher and the students' opinions are We might as well just watch with such cold eyes, if the emperor really disregards public opinion and wants to eradicate us, then no matter what we do, there will be a clear reason, and no one will dare to refute us."

Zhao Yuanbo quickly said that he was really afraid that the teacher would just take refuge with Prince He. The situation at that time must be unfavorable to them. The teacher was kind to him, and he didn't want to see the teacher go to that step.

Prime Minister Lin glanced at the two students who were blushing and thick-necked, with no expression on their faces, as if what they said had nothing to do with him. "Hongxuan, what do you think of this matter?"

Lin Hongxuan looked up at his father, sighed in his heart, and replied with some helplessness: "Father, you already have a solution in your heart, don't you, my thoughts should not be important."

Perhaps in the eyes of others, the expression on his father's face is still as calm as ever, but after spending so long with his father, he knows that his father already has his own thoughts in his heart, and he also knows that his father's mind has been shaken now. , his father wanted to seek refuge with Prince He and help Prince He win the throne.

He didn't know how to comfort his father, because in his opinion, this was the most unwise move, but his father was the master of the family after all, since the emperor ascended the throne, his private actions have made his father more and more irritable , his father's shrewdness in the past seemed to be gone, and he became more stubborn. He knew that no matter what he said, his father would not change his mind.

Lin Hongxuan felt even more helpless when he thought of his younger sister in the palace. The younger sister was demoted to Concubine Lin because of Concubine Ming's miscarriage. If the emperor knew that his father had taken refuge with Prince He at this time, the younger sister's life in the palace might be even more difficult.
