As soon as Lin Yunlong finished speaking, a guard came to Nangong Lingfeng outside and tried to take him away by force.
Naturally, some ministers from the prince faction couldn't stand it, and they didn't know where the emperor heard the nonsense, and wanted to plead for Nangong Lingfeng. But as soon as they called the emperor, Lin Yunlong over there started coughing violently.
His face turned pale.
Uninformed people only thought that Lin Yunlong was made angry by Nangong Lingfeng, and no one thought that he was poisoned. No one dared to say anything easily, for fear of really making the emperor angry. No one can bear this responsibility.
They got up. They could only watch Nangong Lingfeng disappear from their eyes, and then Lin Yunlong was helped away by Liu Lei.
Nangong Lingfeng returned to the General's Mansion with a sneer. Thinking back to Lin Yunlong's weak appearance in the main hall, he murmured in a low voice: "I want to see how long you can last!"
The news that Nangong Lingfeng was being taken into custody by the emperor spread quickly, and even people who had not heard the news would feel that something was wrong when they saw the armed guards at the gate of the general's mansion.
When Lin Yinan rushed back from Xun City, the General's Mansion had been surrounded by the emperor's people.
"The Emperor is really fast in doing things." Su Shi walked around the General's Mansion, and after returning to the Eighth Emperor's Mansion, he said to Lin Yinan, "But why don't Nangong Lingfeng show any intention of resisting?"
"It's not time yet." Lin Yinan lay on the rocking chair with his eyes closed to rest, and answered Su Shi's question as if he was asleep.
Lin Yunlong's speed in doing things is right, but this should also be a helpless move. He wants to force the prince to take action...
Nangong Lingfeng's incident made Nangong Nuo'er and Nangong Liu Xi anxious. But at this time, Lin Yunlong didn't see anyone. He allowed a group of ministers to wait outside his door for several hours with their heads held high and refused to go out.
Don't want to listen to their nonsense.
Lin Yichen didn't get too excited after learning about this. He just wondered whether the emperor really had evidence to prove that they had cooperated with people from Qingming Kingdom twice. If not, Nangong Lingfeng would not be locked up for any longer.
Yes. If so, what could it be? Xuanyuan Junfan and his group had already evacuated, so what other clues could Lin Yunlong catch?
Lin Yichen thought about it for a long time, but couldn't come up with an answer. Compared with Nangong Lingfeng being detained, Lin Yichen was more concerned about Lin Yunlong's weakness in the hall in the morning. Looking at this situation, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for a few days.
Bar?
Nangong Lingfeng was at home, and even the Queen and Nangong Nuo'er couldn't get a chance to see him. In Prince Luo's Mansion, Nangong Nuo'er glared at Lin Yixiang with red eyes, asking him to find a way to let himself and Nangong Lingfeng meet.
"My father has sent so many people there to keep an eye on us. We can enter wherever we want. Aren't you afraid that if someone discovers you when you sneak in, it will cause some trouble for your father? Your Majesty is not.
It's good to put people in jail, but the prince hasn't taken any action yet, so why are you anxious?"
"You mean, I can't be anxious until my father is in jail?" Nangong Nuoer raised his eyebrows and asked displeasedly.
"I never said this." Lin Yixiang stood up and looked at Nangong Nuo'er's haggard face because he didn't have a good rest, "Go and have a good sleep, and then follow me into the palace to see the prince. He will never turn a blind eye.
I watched something happen to your father."
Lin Yixiang said it nicely, but how could Nangong Nuoer still have the time to rest? Even if she was lying on the bed, she could not fall asleep tossing and turning. After living for so many years, this was the first time that the Nangong family had encountered this kind of experience. Unexpectedly, the emperor dared to do so.
After doing this, Nangong Nuoer has no confidence at all now. It is true that the emperor was poisoned, but if the emperor wants to have two people accompany him before he dies, isn't that okay?
Soon, Nangong Nuoer got accurate information from Lin Yichen. Lin Yichen, he planned to go find Lin Yunlong.
In the evening, Lin Yunlong was lying on the bed with his eyes closed to rest. When he heard Liu Lei whisper that the prince wanted to see him for something, Lin Yunlong smiled calmly, and then asked Liu Lei to bring Lin Yichen to him.
Come.
When Lin Yichen saw Lin Yunlong, Lin Yunlong was still lying there. After Lin Yichen stood there for a while, Lin Yunlong slowly opened his eyes, squinted at him and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"I just came to see how my father is doing."
"Really?" Lin Yunlong sat up with some effort and looked up at Lin Yichen with a half-smile. Even if they didn't say something clearly, they should both know it in their hearts. If he really cared about himself, how could he be here today?
Just remembered to watch it? "So now that you have seen it, what do you think?"
"My son feels that my father is tired and it's time to take a good rest."
"Haha." Lin Yunlong couldn't help but chuckle, and this action also made him cough uncontrollably. It finally calmed down a little, and Lin Yunlong's face became a little pale again. He lay down again.
Leaning on the soft bed, Lin Yunlong sighed softly and said: "I never thought that after living for decades, I would eventually lose at the hands of my own son."
Lin Yichen swallowed silently. It was his own intention to attack Lin Yunlong. During the entire plan, he did not ask anyone else's opinion, including the queen. Lin Yunlong in front of him now was very weak, weak.
It made Lin Yichen feel that even if he wanted to kill him now, he would not have the ability to resist. But Lin Yunlong like this still made Lin Yichen feel an inexplicable fear in his heart. Maybe it was accumulated over the years.
Just like when dealing with a powerful enemy, even if you are 100% sure, you will still feel scared when you take action. Until the moment of his death, you will not be able to let go.
"Father, this is not my original intention."
"But you still did it." Lin Yunlong did not hide his anger, staring intently into Lin Yichen's eyes. "You are the prince, and it is natural for you to want to inherit my throne. But you used this method to make me
I have to doubt something. If you want to get the throne, you have to be able to bear the weight of the throne. Can you do it now? If you want it, I can give it to you. But I am very doubtful about whether you can take it.
"
Lin Yunlong's words made Lin Yichen a little angry. At this time, he still refused to abdicate in favor of him? Now that Xuanyuan Junfan and others had left the capital, Lin Yunlong had no way to get the antidote. He knew full well that he
The situation was so dangerous, but it was better not to say something nice at this juncture. If Lin Yunlong was willing to say a soft word, maybe Lin Yichen wouldn't feel so uncomfortable.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Lin Yichen remained silent, so Lin Yunlong had no choice but to ask him what he meant.
"If I want to sit on the throne legitimately, what benefits can you give me? Otherwise, if I die, it will be the same as writing a posthumous edict and passing it on to others."
Lin Yichen had to ensure that Lin Yunlong could survive, but he did not dare to let him fully recover and stay in the capital. So Lin Yunlong was also curious about what his son would come up with.
"Write an edict and make me the crown prince. After leaving Xia Lai Kingdom, I will give my father the antidote."
"Let me leave my country...?" Lin Yunlong asked these words through gritted teeth, but Lin Yichen still nodded. "Okay, you have the guts. Then tell me, what will happen after I really leave?"
Are you sure that what you promised will be fulfilled?"
"What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true. Father, is there no other way but to believe in me?"
Lin Yichen firmly believed that even if Lin Yunlong really found the source of the poison and contacted Xuanyuan Junfan, Xuanyuan Junfan would never give him the antidote. Because Qingming Kingdom knew clearly that between Lin Yunlong and Lin Yi
Who is more difficult to deal with in this moment?
Lin Yichen had to admit that Lin Yunlong was a good emperor. He made Qingming Kingdom, which had always been eyeing him, unable to succeed until now. Lin Yichen also anticipated the various difficulties he would face after ascending the throne, but everything was in **
and rights seem so insignificant.
Lin Yichen was very sure that if he didn't seize the opportunity this time, the throne would never be his. This was something he wanted to understand recently. From the beginning, Lin Yunlong really never thought about passing on the throne to him.
he.
Even if Lin Yunlong doesn't agree to his conditions now and actually writes the will and stays there until the day he dies. Lin Yichen still has a way to find out the will and destroy it. When Lin Yunlong dies, the worst he can do is to be left with him and Lin Yinan
It's a fight to the death. And Lin Yinan doesn't seem to have a long life, so most ministers will still stand on his side.
Lin Yunlong seemed to be thinking about the details. The room was silent for a long time, so long that Lin Yichen could feel his palms sweating slightly.
"Okay, I agree to your conditions."
Lin Yunlong finally nodded, which made Lin Yichen involuntarily raise the corner of his mouth and reveal a smile.
"Hel me up."
Lin Yunlong stood up from the soft couch with Lin Yichen's support, walked step by step to the desk, and wrote what he wanted under Lin Yichen's gaze.
"Tomorrow morning, I will announce this in front of all the ministers. Please go back and let me have a good sleep. I am really tired."
"Since my father will make the announcement in person tomorrow morning, can I take this back?"
"Why, you don't believe what I say?" Lin Yunlong saw Lin Yichen's little thoughts and smiled coldly, but did not refuse. "Take it if you want, and leave quickly. I don't want to see you now."
Lin Yunlong was in an extremely bad mood because of Lin Yichen, but Lin Yinan was very happy.
After waiting for so long, today finally came. Lin Yichen walked out of Lin Yunlong's room briskly. He couldn't see Lin Yunlong's clenched fists, frowning brows, and twisted face because of excessive anger.
All the way back to the Prince's Palace, Lin Yichen just waited for the night to pass and hear the good news from Lin Yunlong's mouth.
