Chapter 697 Three-in-one(2/2)
After returning to Beichen Palace, Lin Yutong changed into mourning clothes, and the palace maid brought the dumplings. Lin Yutong ate five of them and shook her head, "I won't eat it anymore. It's getting late, and it's time to clean up the mourning hall. I'll go to the mourning hall."
The mourning hall was set up in Fengxian Hall. In a short while, the clans knelt the entire inner hall of Fengxian Hall. Lin Yutong walked in from outside and knelt on the cushion in front. When she turned her head, she saw that the person behind her was Jin Shouren. His face was a little anxious at this moment.
Lin Yutong felt aroused. He knelt in this position, probably waiting for him. This happened to be right. She put the dark paper in her hand into the brazier bit by bit, and Jin Shouren asked behind her: "Your Highness, do you have any rules? Yuan Ge'er is in the palace, and this child has a much closer relationship with you and the fourth brother than others."
"Brother Yuan?" Lin Yutong seemed to be thinking about it, "Brother Yuan is naturally excellent. But the queen and Concubine Chen were extremely disgusted with Concubine Li, and Brother Yuan was afraid that..."
Jin Shouren quickly whispered: "At worst, I can remember Yuan Ge'er back to the name of the big house. His biological mother is the daughter of the Lin family, and Marquis Lin's current status is extraordinary, so there will always be some chance."
Lin Yutong thought to herself, what is this child treating? Today, in this name, and tomorrow, she will change her food in. It is too ugly. She felt disgusted, but she said, "If you say this, it's really a bit of a reason. However, you have to discuss this with the Duke. You go and ask someone to pass on the message to the Duke, and say that I have something to do to discuss with him and ask him to find a way to see me."
Kim Sook-in's heart settled suddenly, "I understand! I'll make arrangements as soon as possible!"
Lin Yutong had no extra expression on her face. She only focused on staring at the clearly extinct flames and scattered the underworld coins. No matter what was born, when he saw Jin Cheng'an, he discussed with him the plan of mobilizing the Five City Military and Ma Sis could not be changed.
There were bursts of crying sounds in the mourning hall, one more sad than the other. It was really like Emperor Yongkang was their biological father. These children from the royal family are now working hard to strive for the best. It seems that Lin Yutong, the "personal" person, is not so sad.
Lin Yutong just knelt so coldly, with no expression on her face, but no one dared to come forward to check it out.
Not long after, someone started whispering.
"How can women keep mourning here?"
"Yes! Not in line with the rules!"
"That's the seat of a filial son!"
Lin Yutong was feeling stressed, and he was upset when he heard this. Gan forced himself to leave himself in the palace and brought him here. Isn’t it just to keep himself firmly in the current position? The emperor has no son, but the opportunity to be a filial son is not something that anyone can have if he wants. From the families of ordinary people to the royal family, there are all particulars. The son who throws basins for the elderly will be the son who inherits the family business in the future. Now, the candidates for the new monarch are still competing for each other. Whoever can throw basins for Emperor Yongkang will have an advantage over others.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard footsteps coming from outside. Then the mourning hall calmed down.
"Your Highness, you shouldn't be here." Prince Yu's voice came over clearly.
Lin Yutong's subordinates said without any pause, "You are talking about it." Then, she stood up and lit an incense stick of incense at the mourning hall. Then she turned around and looked at Prince Yu and the princes behind her, and were blessed again. Seeing that she did not dodge or dodge, she sighed in her heart. As soon as Emperor Yongkang died, these people thought they could never turn over again. Now that the prince was deposed, they thought that the selection of the new king was all in their hands, so they couldn't help but get arrogant. She was cold in her heart.
She smiled, but looked at a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy standing beside Prince Yu. This child is Prince Yu’s grandson, and his eyes are a little unyielding. His eyes look at him, and he looks a little greedy. The child looks good. He is only thirteen or fourteen years old, with black eyes and frivolous steps. With the eyes of women, he knows that he is not a good guy. He is not old and there are people serving him. Lin Yutong’s face is quiet and he only points to him: “I see this child is good, so I will ask him to come and kneel down.”
Give the seat directly out. Then raise your foot and walk outside.
Prince Yu was shocked. He really didn't expect to beat someone so easily. But the conscience of heaven and earth really didn't want to ask his grandson to stand up now. Feeling the hot and jealous eyes of these people behind him, he could only smile bitterly.
Lin Yutong got up and went to the back hall of the mourning hall, where the queen, Gan family, and a close royal family member were all guarding the spirits.
When Gan saw Lin Yutong coming in, his face changed slightly: "Why are you here?"
Lin Yutong knelt to her side: "I see that Prince Yu's grandson is pretty good, so I gave him the seat."
What a light sentence. The queen looked at Lin Yutong in surprise, and Lin Yutong nodded slightly to the queen. Princess Lian looked at Lin Yutong with two eyes and praised: "This child is a man who understands the rules."
Gan shook his head and smiled bitterly. But he knew what Lin Yutong meant. That seat was so easy to kneel down! I wonder how many people behind him were waiting to tear him. That's fine!
Lin Yutong knelt on the side, with no light feelings on her face. Gan knew that she was unhappy. But she didn't care whether she was happy or not for the time being, so she had to deal with the eldest princess first.
"...The situation at the border has been like this. I have lost 80% of my troops, and I am too late to receive the urgent news. I am afraid that everything will be over now." The eldest princess cried and whispered to Gan: "Now, it's a good idea to move south. The palace in Jinling is also very good. It's not too late to rest for a while, and it's not too late to make plans. Please transfer the border guards to return to defense."
Lin Yutong frowned. What medicine did the eldest princess take wrong? Why did she think about moving south at this time? Even if the news was serious, it would not have reached this point. Now, the filial piety, the director, the director, and the country's big machine have not stopped. How can we easily abandon the capital?
I heard Gan's voice with a little anger: "The eldest princess's words are heartbreaking. Everyone can escape, but only people like us cannot escape. I will die, and I will die in the capital!"
As soon as the words were finished, a female voice heard: "Who does this empress mean? You have to ask what the empress said?"
Lin Yutong looked over in surprise and really didn't know this old woman.
But suddenly, the queen said, "Mom! Don't be presumptuous!"
It turned out to be the queen's mother, the weird old lady Li.
How hard is this, why does anyone jump out?
Lin Yutong glanced at the queen and looked at Gan, then Gan nodded slightly, and the queen suddenly spoke: "Concubine Chen! I know your integrity. But Your Majesty is new and the court is in a weak state. Several royal princes proposed to move south, which is also a mature method."
Gan's face suddenly showed anger: "No matter how high-sounding they are, they can't hide their fear of death..."
"Concubine Chen!" The eldest princess stood up suddenly and said, "Who is afraid of death? Who is afraid of death? The one who is born and dies in the border is not your closest relative! This is the surname Jin in the world, and the queen who keeps her words in the inner palace. You are a concubine, and you can only obey your orders, remember your duty!"
Lin Yutong was stunned! What does this drama mean? Why do you feel a little confused?
The queen obviously said what Gan said. While she asked the queen to support the migration south, she also firmly refused to move south. Isn’t this a competition with herself and a mutual suffrage?
What exactly does Gan want to do?
The Gan family was stolen by the eldest princess in front of so many people, and her expression was a little bad, "Okay! OK! Your Majesty's body is not cold, you are one by one... I won't say much! If you really want to move south, then leave! But I will never leave!" As she said that, she looked at Lin Yutong, "Where are you? Yun Yin? Are you leaving or not?"
"Don't leave!" Lin Yutong understood a little, looked at the other people in the hall and said, "Don't be here even if you die!"
The eldest princess pursed her lips and looked at Lin Yutong, with a hint of pity in her eyes. She asked solemnly: "Have you thought about it? Although you didn't have a family tree, you are the blood of Your Majesty. When you arrive in Jinling, no matter who the royal family recommends to be the new emperor, as long as I am here, it will not make anyone wronged you!"
Lin Yutong frowned and looked at the eldest princess and asked, "Do you know that Jing'an Hou is like this? He has been open and honest all his life and has never been a deserter. Do you want to force him to be a deserter?"
The eldest princess's face suddenly turned pale: "What do you... do you know? When you have a child, you will know what to choose in a critical moment."
Lin Yutong shut up.
The eldest princess immediately ordered someone: "Invite several princes, and then the queen has agreed to the relocation of the royal family to the south."
Lin Yutong looked at the queen, but saw a little sarcastic look on her face. She nodded slightly to Gan, and then she looked like a Bodhisattva again and didn't speak anymore.
Gan's family wanted to drive the entire royal family out of the capital. Thinking of this, it seems that it is indeed a shortcut. If you want to get to power, the royal family has the greatest resistance! Instead of slowly consuming it, it is better to move it away directly from the front! As long as someone guides and provokes a little, they may think this is an excellent idea. Why? Because the forces inside and outside the capital have nothing to do with them. Even if the new king is elected, they are still a puppet of others. Instead of doing this, it is better to find another way. Once you move south, the inherent pattern will be broken, so they will have a chance. When the new king gains a foothold in Jinling, see what tricks Gan's family can play. By then, whether it is staying in Jinling for a long time or returning to the capital, it is OK. This is the ability to advance or retreat!
Lin Yutong didn't know that all this was planned by Gan's family, or that she went with the flow after she knew the idea of the royal family. But no matter which one was, Lin Yutong felt absurd now. Because from beginning to end, no one except herself and the Fourth Master had expected Gan's true thoughts. She never thought of relying on the royal family and supporting the children of the Jin family. She planned from multiple perspectives and always prepared for her to take office. No one could see her shocking thoughts, so they could only passively be plotted, and they could not figure out Gan's thoughts at all.
Gan looked at the princes who were rushing over: "You are going south with His Majesty's coffin. I don't object to this! But stay! Yun Yin stayed! The ministers in the court, who want to leave can follow you, but those who don't want to leave will still be officials in the court, and this cannot be changed."
Prince Yu nodded: "Of course, we don't plan to take the ministers away for the time being! The royal family moved south just to avoid disaster. This northern land is still the country of our Great Zhou, and we will never take all the officials away, so that the people of the world lack their parents' officials."
Gan's face became better: "That's the case, then I have nothing to say." But he was ridiculed in his heart. You are not wanting to take the court officials away, you are afraid that the court officials will object too fiercely, and they think of setting up another stall in Jinling. But how can there be such a beautiful thing in the world? She knelt down quietly and said no more.
The next day, Jin Chengan entered the palace and asked to see Lin Yutong.
"What do you think about the migration of the royal family to the south?" Jin Chengan asked straight to the point without hesitation.
Lin Yutong raised her eyes: "You won't leave. I don't want to leave either! We are just open-minded people and just be honest with each other!"
Jin Cheng'an's eyes lit up: "What Your Highness said is! I won't leave! It's better if the royal family leaves. If we leave, we will have a greater chance."
Lin Yutong smiled and said, "I want you to cooperate with me, you can obey my orders in the transfer of the Five City Military and Ma Si."
Jin Sung-an's eyes flashed and he said, "I agree to this. But I have something to do, and I also need your highness's help."
This is to exchange favors with yourself. You help me, I help you, and that's the same.
"You said." Lin Yutong did not hesitate at all.
Jin Chengan whispered: "I want to take Yuan Ge'er back. The prince will follow the Qi family and Yuan Ge'er to move south this time."
