Cola Novels: This is where dreams begin, and where dreams come true.

"Your Majesty, there's no need to deliberately suppress Consort Yang!"

Lin Chuan spoke with a serious expression and bluntly.

wow——

As soon as she finished speaking, Guanyinbi, who had been enjoying herself, immediately opened her eyes, her eyes flashing with shock and anger.

Are you feeling sorry for her?

Then, she asked coldly.

At this moment, Guanyinbi was indeed very angry, because Lin Chuan should know that she did not like Consort Yang.

But the fact that Lin Chuan dared to plead for Consort Yang in front of her made her wonder if Lin Chuan had betrayed her and been bewitched by Consort Yang.

"Absolutely not."

Lin Chuan immediately bent down to answer.

"Everything I did was for Your Majesty's sake."

Lin Chuan spoke firmly, revealing his sincerity.

"So, I misunderstood you?"

Guanyinbi raised her eyebrows; Lin Chuan clearly hadn't considered her feelings.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty is a wise and benevolent ruler, and you, as the mistress of the harem, are destined to become a wise and benevolent empress!"

"Consort Yang is merely a former princess of the previous dynasty, long since insignificant. The entire court is more than capable of suppressing her."

"Your distinguished status should not be tarnished by this."

Lin Chuan gathered his thoughts and explained directly.

What he said is true. Historically, Empress Zhangsun Wuji was indeed a wise and virtuous empress, and was as famous as Empress Xiao and Empress Ma.

But her only stain was her involvement with Consort Yang.

As the mother of the nation, she, like Emperor Taizong of Tang, highly valued her reputation, which is exactly what Lin Chuan took advantage of.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the anger on Guanyinbi's face disappeared, leaving only silence.

"It seems I misunderstood you!"

Guanyinbi nodded, agreeing with Lin Chuan's point of view.

"I will no longer suppress her, but if she harbors even the slightest ill intentions, I will not let her off!"

These words filled Lin Chuan with joy; he knew the matter was settled.

He then massaged Guanyinbi even more attentively.

The willow trees along the riverbank remain unchanged in the suburbs of Chang'an.

Consort Yang looked astonished; Lin Chuan had truly kept his word.

Guanyinbi stopped suppressing her, and the most obvious evidence of this was the increase in the number of palace maids and eunuchs in Penglai Palace.

"How did you do that?"

Consort Yang asked in surprise, as she was very curious about it.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to know how I did it."

"Just remember, from this day forward, our fates are intertwined."

Lin Chuan left everyone in suspense with a mysterious answer.

Consort Yang smiled; she only cared about the result, not the process.

"Your Majesty, should you agree?" Lin Chuan asked seriously at the end.

"If my son does not vie for the throne, you must guarantee the safety of my son and me."

"I will only agree if this is achieved."

"If my son is to contend for the throne, you must give it your all."

Consort Yang simply smiled, pushed Lin Chuan away, and stated clearly.

This moment puzzled Lin Chuan; Consort Yang was truly too cunning!

But he soon realized that Consort Yang just wanted to be more cautious, since the risks and rewards had to be balanced.

"agree."

Lin Chuan nodded; this was not difficult for him.

"But Your Majesty cannot let me waste my efforts."

However, Lin Chuan immediately changed the subject and spoke again.

He wasn't a fool; he wouldn't let Consort Yang lead him by the nose. He had to take advantage of her as much as possible.

"What else can you do?"

Consort Yang suddenly asked this question.

This is clearly a question: how could a eunuch possibly fantasize about experiencing romantic love?

Lin Chuan cursed inwardly!

How could he not hear the sarcasm in Consort Yang's voice? He immediately wanted to reveal his true identity to terrify her!

However, their current position is unstable, and they have no way to ensure their safety even if their identity is exposed.

For now, we can only endure Consort Yang's jokes for the time being.

Lin Chuan sneered inwardly. Once the system was activated, he wouldn't have to be so careful anymore.

In Chang'an City, at the East Market.

Lin Chuan was very excited at this moment because he had established a preliminary strategic cooperation with the other party.

Unfortunately, Consort Yang was indeed worthy of being the eldest princess of the previous dynasty, possessing extraordinary wisdom.

Although she initially agreed to Lin Chuan's request, she put forward three conditions.

This means that to get any help from her, one must act according to her wishes.

Lin Chuan must either do something that benefits Consort Yang or Li Ke.

This angered him, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

Consort Yang did this out of necessity.

Given her position, she had to work with him to plan the succession to the future crown prince.

If leaked, it will result in the severe consequence of implicating nine generations of one's family.

Only by waiting for the system to activate can one fully control their destiny and break free from all constraints.

During the morning court session at the Taiji Hall.

The entire court was shocked because Emperor Taizong (Li Er) announced a series of reforms to the imperial examination system.

Changsun Wuji stepped forward and flattered Li Er, who sat on the dragon throne: "Your Majesty is wise!"

But he was deeply worried, because these policies were clearly aimed at restricting warlord families like them and the Guanlong Group.

Nevertheless, this is not enough to shake their foundations.

After Li Er ascended the throne, his gaze swept across everyone, taking in their reactions.

Li Er merely smiled faintly at Changsun Wuji's flattery, but he knew Changsun Wuji's true intentions.

As Lin Chuan said, these policies only slightly weakened their power and did not touch their fundamental interests.

night.

The residence of the Changsun family.

Numerous civil and military officials secretly gathered here; they were all members of the Guanlong Group.

"My lord, you should understand the Emperor's intentions!"

"Is he going to attack us?"

After sitting down, everyone turned to look at Changsun Wuji, for today's events were by no means a good omen.

"What's the panic?"

Changsun Wuji frowned deeply. He knew in his heart that the Emperor planned to take action against the Guanlong Group.

However, he was not as foolish as Yang Guang, who resorted to large-scale military force.

"It's just a minor squabble, let him make a scene."

Then he added.

"Reforming the imperial examination system is a complete joke."

"Do you think you can suppress our Guanlong Group like this? You underestimate us."

"Don't forget, even the powerful Sui Dynasty could fall quickly."

The crowd fell silent for a moment. As their representative, if Changsun Wuji believed there was no problem, then there was no problem.

Besides, they didn't believe Li Er had that ability.

"Is that you, Lin Chuan?"

After everyone left, Changsun Wuji asked with a gloomy expression.

He didn't believe these policies were His Majesty's own ideas; it was more likely that he had gone to see Lin Chuan again.

This made him uneasy.

Lin Chuan's abilities are so powerful that they rival those of gods, and no one knows his true strength.

If he were to advise the emperor from behind the scenes, that would be a huge problem.

We must ascertain his intentions and try our best to gain his support; if we cannot do so, we must prepare in advance.

"Clang clang clang!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Father, it's me."

Changsun Chong's voice came from outside.

"Come in."

After responding, Changsun Wuji smiled. Although he had many children, he doted on Changsun Chong the most.

"What's the matter?"

After Changsun rushed in, Changsun Wuji asked directly.

Changsun Chong's thoughts are always written on his face, which is a sign of immaturity.

"Please ask Father to propose marriage to the Emperor. I wish to marry Chang Le."

Changsun Chong said respectfully.

He had always regarded Chang Le as his future wife, but Lin Chuan's appearance made him feel threatened.

Lin Chuan was a eunuch and should have no chance with Chang Le, but he still felt uneasy.

He sensed problems ahead and decided to take immediate action.

Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji's smile vanished immediately, and he fell into deep thought.

If Lin Chuan hadn't appeared, he would have agreed to his son's request for Chang Le without hesitation.

But now, he decided to first establish a relationship with Lin Chuan, even though Lin Chuan was a eunuch, and he had to consider his wishes.

Proposing marriage to the emperor at this time might displease Lin Chuan.

If Lin Chuan were to raise further objections to the emperor, things would become even more complicated.

"Put your relationship with Chang Le on hold for now, and stop thinking about her."

Changsun Wuji ultimately decided to prioritize the overall situation, because the interests of the Guanlong Group were paramount.

He would not hesitate to sacrifice the happiness of his offspring.

There are plenty of women in the world; there's no need to fixate on Chang Le alone.

So what if she's a princess? The five noble families and seven powerful clans don't care about her at all!

"We need to think further ahead!"

Changsun Wuji slowly stood up and patted Changsun Chong on the shoulder meaningfully.

Changsun Chong was unable to understand his father's intentions at this moment. He was shocked and his face showed confusion and anger.

"Why? Father?"

Changsun Chong found it hard to believe, because his father had always doted on him.

He had never even mentioned it before, nor had he promised to propose marriage to the emperor when he grew up.

Now, his father has completely changed his stance, not only reneging on his promise but also advising him to give up Chang Le!

"I will not give up on Chang Le!"

He immediately and firmly stated that he would not listen to any advice.

Snapped--

"You bastard!"

This scene enraged Changsun Wuji even more, and he couldn't help but slap him, feeling deeply disappointed.

Because the Changsun clan represents the interests of the Guanlong Group, they cannot allow you to act arbitrarily.

"You, you actually hit me?"

Changsun Chong froze on the spot, a pained expression on his face.

He never expected his father to hit him, and immediately turned and ran out of the room, his heart broken.

"Why!"

Seeing this scene, Changsun Wuji felt melancholy, though he also felt some regret.

However, this matter involves the interests of the entire group and cannot be handled hastily.

Otherwise he would become a sinner!

I hope he will understand his father's intentions in the future.

Inside a tea shop in the East Market.

"Ogawako!"

Just as Lin Chuan was getting extremely bored, a loud shout suddenly rang out from outside.

That's Princess Chang Le's voice!

Lin Chuan's eyes lit up, because he was really lonely. Old Li and Old Sun hadn't come, and Guanyinbi hadn't summoned him for a long time.

"Her Highness the Princess has finally arrived."

"I thought you were tired of it!"

Lin Chuan stood up to greet him with a big smile.

"No way."

Upon hearing this, Chang Le immediately clarified that it was not that she was deliberately delaying, but that her movements had been restricted recently.

The reason was that a major disaster almost occurred during the last outing, which greatly angered the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

I finally managed to sneak out today.

"Your Highness has come at the perfect time. I have just developed a new formula for strengthening the body."

The effect is obvious, and you feel comfortable immediately after using it.

Lin Chuan led the way directly to Chang Le's room and spoke frankly.

He wasn't lying, because the ultimate move he was preparing to unleash this time was—bone setting!

Although there was talk of bone setting in ancient times, it was vastly different from the standardized procedures of modern bone setting.

Lin Chuan felt incredibly excited when he thought about the differences between them.

"Huh? Can I refuse?"

Upon hearing this, Chang Le's face immediately turned pale.

She acknowledged Lin Chuan's excellent medical skills, but each treatment made her feel uncomfortable.

Although she had some affection for Lin Chuan, she knew that there would be no future between them because he was a eunuch.

"Don't worry, this time it won't be like before."

Lin Chuan felt both helpless and amused by this; indeed, people in ancient times valued chastity and reputation more than life itself.

However, he solemnly promised that there would be no strange requests during the bone-setting process.

Although Chang Le had doubts, Lin Chuan's sincere eyes and earnest request made her nod.

Soon after, she almost burst into tears.

She realized that she had been deceived by Lin Chuan once again.

"Ogawa, you're awful!"

Finally, Chang Le couldn't help but glare angrily at Lin Chuan before quickly fleeing the tea shop.

Lin Chuan did not stop him, but a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Chang Le went straight to the Imperial Study in the Ganlu Hall as soon as she returned to the palace.

She was filial and knew Li Er's hardships. Although she had been deceived by Lin Chuan today, she had to admit that it had a miraculous effect.

Therefore, Chang Le wanted to use the same method to relax her father.

"She truly is my good daughter!"

Li Er was very happy and felt that his daughter was very considerate.

But soon he became confused because these treatments seemed a bit too much.

"Who taught you that?"

"Could it be Lin Chuan?"

Li Er was confused because Chang Le's so-called bone-setting movements were too intimate and unbearable to look at.

This action is absolutely indecent!

"How did Father Emperor know?"

Chang Le was speechless for a moment, and couldn't help but blurt out these words.

Wow—

Oh no! Oh no!

Li Er's face instantly turned ashen. It must have been Lin Chuan who taught him. Then my Guanyinbi must have experienced the same thing!

The thought of Guanyinbi and Lin Chuan's intimate actions made his heart beat even faster.

"Guanyinbi, you've gone too far!"

Afterwards, Li Er rushed out of Ganlu Hall and immediately went to question Guanyinbi.

Lizheng Hall.

"Guanyinbi, get out here right now."

Just then, a roar suddenly rang out from outside.

Li Er stormed in angrily, startling the eunuchs and maids in the palace, who trembled with fear.

*Click*

Inside the palace, Guanyinbi was startled when she heard the sound, and her face instantly turned terrified.

Li Er must already know.

Guanyinbi composed herself and then walked out of the palace.

Inside the main hall, Li Er sat on a chair with a livid face, staring at her with wide, angry eyes.

Guanyinbi felt even more uneasy. She waved her hand, signaling the eunuchs and maids to leave.

"What happened? Why are you so angry?"

Guanyinbi walked over and asked coldly.

She believed that she had not done anything wrong to Li Er, and that even if the matter were discovered, it would not have any impact.

"You still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Li Er turned purple with anger and immediately stood up.

Guanyinbi maintained her composure on the surface.

"I ask you, have you done the same thing as Lin Chuan?"

This angered Li Er, who was determined to make Guanyinbi understand the truth and immediately began to explain.

Guanyinbi's expression kept changing.

She finally relaxed because Lin Chuan had never performed that kind of physical conditioning on her before.
