Besides, the Lin family is so rich, if they can be brought over, it will not only help the court, but also make other aspects much easier, especially when it comes to winning over military generals, it will save a lot of trouble.
The Jia family started out with military exploits, and most of the military generals were related to the Jia family. As the son-in-law of the Jia family, Lin Ruhai was in the emperor's heart. If he spoke, would he be afraid that those people would not be willing to come to him?
However, these princes did not include the sixth prince, because he already knew his fate, and Lin Ruhai's return to the capital dashed his last hope.
Thinking of what his father said to him that day in the imperial study, he couldn't help crying.
"An'er, you have been smart and alert since you were a child, and you know how to please me better than your brothers. However, you are uncertain and destined to miss this great position."
"Everyone wants to sit in my seat, but it's not that simple to sit in this seat. Let's not talk about other things. You just don't have the love for the people and the determination to sacrifice everything."
"I actually know all the things you did and the methods behind your brothers, but you are my son after all. I don't want a white-haired person to give away a black-haired person. Do you understand?"
"An'er, you have no way out now, and I can't stop you. Leave the capital. Only by leaving here can you save your life!"
"It's a bit hard to guard the emperor's tomb, but you can be protected there, and there are other people there. It's better to go there than to be imprisoned in the capital. At least you don't have to stay in the same courtyard all day, and you don't need to be on guard.
Isn’t it because of someone else’s poisonous hand?”
"Let's go, go far away. If I don't ask you to come back, don't come back. Living well is better than anything else..."
Xu Shi cried bitterly, crying out all the depression in his heart. This time, he no longer had the unwillingness in his heart, but only the calmness after defeat.
Although he still felt a little disappointed and reluctant in his heart, he also knew that his father was doing it for his own good. If he didn't want to die, he would have no choice but to follow his father's arrangements.
He called someone into the house to help him wash up, and practiced calligraphy for a while before he completely calmed down, and ordered someone to pack the things he needed to take when leaving Beijing.
This time, he is no longer just leaving for a short period of time, but may never return for the rest of his life.
Therefore, he needs to bring a lot of things. If he doesn't prepare them early, he may not be able to take them with him.
After all, his brothers are still staring at him!
It's a pity that he wanted to accept his fate, but the officials who followed him did not want to accept their fate, especially those families who were tied to death by him.
He is a prince, the emperor's biological son, and he can still live if he accepts his fate, but if officials like them accept their fate, their whole family will die. With such a high price, who is willing to accept his fate, and who dares to accept his fate.
After learning that the emperor was going to send him to guard the imperial mausoleum, they all panicked. They didn't even bother to return home after getting off work, and went straight to his prince's residence.
Some people advised him to stay behind closed doors for the time being, but not to leave Beijing. Once he left Beijing, he would not be able to come back.
Some people also advised him to leave Beijing temporarily, but not to guard the imperial mausoleum, even if it was to fight at the border to earn military merit.
And the ruthless one directly encouraged him to rebel, but no one else objected, which shows that he was not the only one who had this idea.
All in all, all in all, he is not allowed to give up that position.
The Sixth Prince just sat there and watched them making noise without saying a word, until they went too far and even started to think of making him kill his father. Then he slammed the table and shouted to stop them.
How could the sixth prince who managed to survive in the palace long enough to leave the palace and open a mansion and win over so many people be such a good person?
He is willing to accept his fate because he is more self-aware than other brothers and knows how to protect himself. At the same time, he also has a bit of luck.
Although it seems that he has no chance to fight for his position now that he has left Beijing, who knows that this is not another kind of success?
As far as my father's health is concerned, it is no worse than that of the Supreme Emperor. It is impossible to say that the winner now is another deposed prince.
There is a saying that "the snipe and the clam compete with each other and the fisherman gets the benefit." Maybe he became the fisherman who got the benefit by hiding!
The officials following him didn't know his thoughts, so after a while of silence, they started making noise again.
But in the end, the Sixth Prince sent them away with just a few words.
As soon as he sent away those officials, several staff members from the government came to ask him what he thought.
These people discussed matters with him every day, but they knew his temperament better than those officials. His words of comfort could not deceive many of them. After only a few words of conversation, they left unhappy.
Seeing that persuading him was fruitless, someone who was thoughtful approached the officials of his faction and tried to make a trick to force him to take the position.
There are also those who know that their future is hopeless and just pack up and leave.
As for betraying information about him to other princes in exchange for benefits, there is really no one.
Capable staff like them would either die for their confidants and be loyal to only one master in their lives, or they could live in seclusion elsewhere and wait for the appearance of another person worthy of their lives.
As for the betrayers, not to mention the masters, even their colleagues are looked down upon.
The Sixth Prince has always attached great importance to the control of the palace. Even if he is about to leave the capital, he has never relaxed a little. Therefore, he knew it as soon as those aides left.
He didn't say anything to those who left. He only asked people to give each of them a thousand taels of silver to thank them for working for him.
As for those who wanted to force him to ascend to power, he neither stopped nor helped them, and just pretended that he knew nothing.
Maybe...he also has some thoughts of rebellion in his heart!
The more times like this, the tighter the secret guards monitor the capital, what happened in the Sixth Prince's Mansion reached the emperor's ears in just half a day.
After hearing this, the emperor didn't say anything. After waving his hand to let people go, he sat quietly for a long time and then sighed: "An'er, you are still unwilling after all..."
Lin's house, in the garden pavilion.
Jiusi was chatting with Lin Ruhai and Daiyu when he saw Eryue coming with a plate of ice cream, and by putting something on the table, he handed a piece of paper into her hand.
Jiusi took the paper, glanced at it, threw it into the space, and then, like a normal person, continued to joke with the father and daughter.
Perhaps he was tired from the journey, and after chatting for a while, Lin Ruhai showed signs of fatigue.
When Jiusi saw this, he smiled and said: "Father is tired from the journey, so it's better to go back and rest early. If you want to talk about family matters, we will have plenty of time in the future."
Daiyu also looked at him with a distressed and worried look: "Father, you should listen to your sister and go back early to rest.
I wrote to you before that I felt uncomfortable in my body, and now I am so exhausted. What if I am really exhausted?"
Lin Ruhai was indeed tired. After the two persuaded him, he did not hold on. He gave the two a few words and ordered someone to send the things he had brought to them to their yard, and then went back to his room to rest.
