This slight smile made Long Lin smile directly after seeing it.
But there was some doubt in his heart.
At his father's current age, he is in his prime and there will be no need to consider these things within a few decades.
Why are you saying these words to him at this time?
This strange feeling passed by in a flash, and he didn't pay much attention to it.
"Father, you haven't said yet, where did my son go wrong?"
After hearing this, the emperor raised his head.
"My child, although you don't know Prince Jing, you should have heard about it. At that time, almost everyone believed that Prince Jing would step onto the throne. But in the end, the person who stepped onto the throne was not him, but
It was me and he, like you, made this most fatal mistake."
After the emperor finished speaking, Long Lin was stunned for a moment subconsciously.
It turns out that the mistakes he made were also made by Prince Jing back then.
What kind of mistake was this? It made him even more curious.
When it came to Prince Jing, Long Lin had almost no deep impression. He only met a few times on important occasions, and that was all.
This person, just by looking at his appearance, doesn’t give you the impression that he is anything but simple.
He also had no idea about the fight between Prince Jing and the Emperor for the throne.
But it was probably not an easy thing for his father to step onto the throne under such circumstances.
But one thing is also very strange. Long Ao was captured so easily by him, and those bandits were even more vulnerable. Is it true that Prince Jing only has this little power in his hands? If that is the case, then Jing
How could the king step onto the throne in those days? I'm afraid it's not that simple.
These thoughts flashed through Long Lin's mind.
"Father, what kind of mistake is this?"
"My child, just like you, he trusts someone too much." The emperor showed a complicated smile.
After hearing this, Long Lin was a little dumbfounded. Do you trust someone too much?
He really doesn't feel that he trusts anyone in particular? He naturally trusts a few people around him, but when it comes to trusting too much, it doesn't seem to have reached this level.
For a moment, his face looked a little confused.
"My child, King Jing was almost certain to win back then. No one would have any other opinions on that matter, but King Jing ignored a key person, and this person can also be said to be the person whom King Jing trusted the most.
of a person.”
"Father, who is it?" Long Lin couldn't help but asked immediately.
"He is the late emperor, the father of me and Prince Jing."
After saying these words, Long Lin froze there.
Isn't it right to believe in your father?
"Father, I still don't quite understand."
"My child, with the power that Prince Jing had back then, no prince could compete with him, and I was completely incompetent. Regarding the throne, at that time, I didn't even think about it, and there was no chance at all.
, but the late emperor summoned me, and under the late emperor’s single-handed arrangement, all the forces of Prince Jing were completely destroyed, leaving him no longer with any chance to resist."
Hearing these words, Long Lin was extremely shocked.
Now, he seemed to vaguely understand that King Jing was on guard against everyone, but he was not on guard against the emperor at that time, that is, the late emperor. He would never have thought that it was the late emperor who took action and completely destroyed everything about Prince Jing.
Then he helped his father to the throne.
"Father, you mean that Prince Jing believed too much in the late emperor, and now I believe in you too much? Isn't this wrong?"
"My child, the late emperor told me that if you want to step into this position, don't trust anyone. There will always be only one person you can trust, and that is yourself. This is what my father said to me before he died.
I have read this countless times, and now I will give you these words."
These words immediately shocked Long Lin's heart.
His expression became very strange in an instant.
"Father, why? Why are you telling me these words at this time? Is something going to happen? Father, if you can tell me, I can share your worries with you."
After hearing this, the emperor shook his head slightly.
"My child, nothing happened. It was you who happened to do this thing that made me think of these things. I also have another sentence for you. Before you do anything, you have to think about it.
If you don’t have enough ability to clean up the mess, don’t rely on anyone to have the power to clean up the mess. Unless things get out of control, do such risky things. Not every time, I will be there for you.
Stabilizing the situation for you from behind."
The emperor's eyes were full of profound meaning.
Long Lin had never seen such a gentle side before.
But with such a father, he always felt something was wrong in his heart, but what was wrong? He couldn't figure it out for the moment.
"Father, I have been taught a lesson, and I will keep these words in mind."
"My child, the Tianlao is a good place. I want to start preparing for the wedding of Long Qian and Long Ye. You stay in there for a while, and when the situation calms down, you can come out by yourself. Those things you brought back, I
I will leave it with you for the time being, and if there is any need, feel free to use it."
The emperor said these words with a smile, very gentle.
After hearing this, Long Lin immediately nodded.
"Yes, Father, I understand. I am ignorant of all your painstaking efforts and did not even understand. I am still too stupid."
"No, it's just that you have little experience, so go ahead."
After hearing this, Long Lin slowly stood up, turned around and prepared to leave.
But as soon as he took a step, Long Lin stopped.
Turning back, he looked at his father, his eyes full of solemnity.
"Father, did my fifth brother encounter any trouble in the fierce battle earlier?"
After hearing this, the emperor smiled slightly and shook his head.
"Not at the moment. The news coming back says that the Xiongnu army is defeated. I believe that the Xiongnu will be completely captured soon."
Hearing these words, Long Lin smiled, his face full of joy.
As long as there are no problems on Long Qi's side, nothing big should happen.
"That's very good, Father. I'll take my leave now."
After hearing this, the emperor nodded slightly.
After watching Long Lin leave, the emperor's eyes gradually became solemn.
Regarding the fact that the Long Dynasty had been destroyed, he thought about it over and over again, but still did not mention it to Long Lin.
For this matter, Long Qi has been solving this matter since he was born, and after hearing what he heard, his whole life changed drastically. Long Lin devoted himself to the people. This is a good thing. What will happen in the future?
Just let him and Long Qi take the responsibility.
Long Lin returned to the cell and sat comfortably beside the bed.
His mood now is completely different from when he left.
It was very comfortable and I lay down directly, swinging my legs leisurely.
His father's words kept vaguely ringing in his ears, and he couldn't help but ponder the deep meaning of these words in his heart.
...
Long Qian and Long Ye returned to Long Lin's mansion.
Entering the courtyard, both of them looked a little heavy.
From the depths far away, there were bursts of violent sounds.
clang clang clang......
This sound immediately caused the two people's expressions to change drastically, and they hurriedly ran towards the depths of the courtyard.
