The spacious study room of Liang Wang Guo Bing is not like a study room. Although there are many books, there are more weapons, armor, swords and other items. A dozen long swords with exquisite patterns hang on the wall, and several sets of armor stands stand on the wall.
Beautifully made armor. There are saddles inlaid with precious stones on the wooden shelves. On the weapons rack in the corner, several spears with gleaming spear heads stand there. The entire study feels like a warrior's weapons arsenal.
The temperament of the study room determines the temperament of the owner. The books on the bookshelf seem to have not been touched for many years, but the armor, saddles, and weapons are as shiny as new. It can be seen that the owner does not study on weekdays, but often cleans and uses these weapons. Guo Bing, the king of Liang, is such a person who likes martial arts.
This is something that goes against the trend in today's world where culture is valued over martial arts.
At this moment, in front of a sturdy bookcase covered in black animal skin, Guo Bing stared closely at Lin Jue standing in front of him, like a ferocious beast facing a little lamb in front of him.
"Lin Jue, as you wish, now you can talk about your great plan. I hope you are not entertaining me. You should know what kind of person you are in my eyes. I hope you will not mess with me again.
I am not happy." Guo Bing shouted in a deep voice.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "My lord, please calm down. How dare the common people entertain the prince? How many of the ordinary people dare to make the prince unhappy? The ordinary people apologized to the prince for the oiran thing. It is indeed the ordinary people who did not think well and offended the prince. I hope the prince will be considerate."
, can spare the common people."
Guo Bingbing said with a smile: "You don't need to remind me. If you can really help with the robbery of the gift, and if it really works, I will not care about it. Tell me, what is your best plan?"
"
Lin Jue smiled and said nothing. Guo Kun, who was standing behind Guo Bing, shouted angrily: "What? Is it possible that I also want to avoid suspicion? Do you even doubt me?"
Lin Jue hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Where did the young prince think? Of course, the young prince cannot be a spy. How could I doubt the young prince? The common people were just thinking about how to speak. Well... the gift was robbed.
I just heard a general idea, I hope to hear the story in detail, I don’t know if the prince will agree."
Guo Bing and his son were so angry that after doing this for a long time, Lin Jue didn't even understand the matter before he dared to claim that he had a countermeasure. It seemed that in all likelihood, this boy's so-called good plan was just empty talk. But now that things have happened, there is no need to rush.
Come to a conclusion. Guo Bing has already decided that if it is proven that Lin Jue is just making up his mind later, he will immediately order people to take him to the torture room to be tortured first, break his hands and feet, and pick off his tendons.
Let go of the hatred in your heart.
Under Guo Bing's instructions, the young prince Guo Kun reluctantly recounted the incident again. Although he was unhappy, Guo Kun did not miss any details and told all the information he had received.
Lin Jue listened quietly, frowning and relaxing his brows from time to time, his expression focused.
Finally, Guo Kun finished his narration. Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "The young prince is very articulate and speaks very well and clearly."
Guo Kun was furious. He said this as if he was a servant reporting something to his master, and the master gave him a compliment. Before Guo Kun could scold him, Lin Jue spoke slowly.
"My lord, my dear lord. As I listened carefully, I felt more and more that my previous judgment was correct. The way the gangsters moved out and the neatness and cleanness with which they acted showed that they were a group of well-trained and habitual gangsters. In addition, nine times out of ten,
Either an insider got the news, or it could be said that the gangsters got the news early. They had a full understanding of where the fleet was berthed, when it was berthed, and even the manpower escorting it and the cargo on board. Judging from the motives of their actions,
, in fact, they went for those two treasures, and the purpose was very clear. Everything like this shows one thing: this is a premeditated, purposeful, planned, and internal attack. I don’t know what the ordinary people think.
, the prince and the young prince agree or disagree."
As soon as an expert takes action, he will know if there is any. Lin Jue only said a few words, and Guo Bing and his son had already nodded secretly. These conclusions were also reached after discussions with other officials before. Lin Jue seemed to have made everyone's discussion
The conclusion was summarized, making people suspect that he was at the scene at the time, but he was not there. The conclusion was based on a short period of analysis. This shows that he is very knowledgeable.
The Guo family and his son did not want to show their admiration, and Guo Bing said expressionlessly: "You don't have to worry about whether we agree with your analysis or not. Just keep talking, and I will make my own decision."
Lin Jue nodded and continued: "If this was a premeditated and purposeful attack, then the matter would be extremely difficult. Generally speaking, bandits rob only for money and food. But this time they robbed these two treasures, their intentions
It may not be about wealth. It sounds contradictory. It seems difficult to understand that the priceless treasures were robbed but not for wealth. But the common people think that is the case. Maybe they are for another purpose that is more important than money. It's just that
The common people don’t know what it is.”
Unexpectedly, such ridiculous and contradictory remarks did not elicit scolding from the Guo family and his son. On the contrary, they made the two of them feel that Lin Jue was not talking nonsense. After the incident, Guo Bing discussed it with his son in private.
, both of them had a vague feeling that this matter seemed to be aimed at Prince Liang’s Mansion. Two birthday gifts were lost, and there were many unlucky people, but the most unlucky one was actually Prince Liang’s Mansion. Prince Liang would fall out of favor because of this incident, causing serious consequences.
No one dares to predict what will happen next due to the dissatisfaction of the Queen Mother and the Holy Emperor. This is the most intuitive feeling of Prince Liang and his son. It’s just that these words cannot be said when discussing in public, but at this moment Lin Jue said this, Prince Liang
Father and son immediately felt a sense of sympathy.
"Continue, what you said... may not be unreasonable. You can say it with confidence. I will not blame you for saying the wrong thing." Guo Bing leaned forward and stared.
Lin Jue nodded and continued: "Common people dare to analyze the current situation. These two birthday gifts must be extremely important to the prince. If they are taken away at this time, not only will the Queen Mother's birthday gifts be lost, it may also be a great disadvantage to the prince.
"
Guo Kun said coldly: "Lin Jue, you are just a commoner. If you dare to speculate about royal affairs, you will be asking for death."
Lin Jue said with a smile: "Young prince, we are just discussing the matter. Common people do not make random speculations. I am the Lin family. I naturally know how much energy and money the prince has spent in order to purchase these two birthday gifts. It is my Lin family, in order to
Fan Guo also worked hard to find these two treasures. In order to transport them back to Dazhou from the vast sea, everyone in my Lin family worked hard and tried every means. It can be seen that these two birthday gifts are not only priceless, but also valuable.
The prince's reverence and love for the queen mother were robbed. What was robbed was not the birthday gift, but the prince's filial piety. Not to mention, this filial piety also included the present emperor's share. Although it was not
It’s the prince’s fault, but it will inevitably embarrass the prince, that’s what I meant.”
Guo Bing nodded secretly. Lin Jue actually said it very implicitly, but he should have figured out unexpectedly that the loss of this gift would be very detrimental to him. It's just that he didn't say it clearly that the Holy Emperor and the Queen Mother would be angry with him.
"Lin Jue, you are very smart. You are right. It doesn't matter whether the gift is high or low. Prince Liang's palace is not short of this kind of money. But this is the filial piety between the Holy Lord and this king. This filial piety cannot be lost, so it is inevitable
We need to resolve this matter.”
Lin Jue cupped his hands and said: "What the prince said is absolutely true. In fact, the easiest way to do this is to immediately mobilize the troops from the Huainan Road and the two Zhejiang Roads to encircle and suppress this group of daring bandits. I estimate that they must be Hong
If the water bandits in the Zehu area can concentrate their forces and make up their minds, they can destroy the bandits and take back the gifts."
Guo Bing's brows knitted into a knot. This was not the solution he wanted.
However, I heard Lin Jue continue: "But this most feasible method seems to be unavailable now. Because then the matter will have to be reported to the court, otherwise, it will cause extremely bad effects. The Holy Spirit is still
She would be angry, and the Queen Mother would definitely not be happy if she found out about this. I think the prince must have blocked the news now and did not report the news to the court. After all...after all, he still has some concerns."
Guo Bing naturally understood the meaning of Lin Jue's words, but he was unwilling to admit it. He only said in a deep voice: "I did block the news, but it was not for other reasons, but because I didn't want the bandits to be rampant.
It made people panic and gave them the arrogance of gangsters. In addition...if we really report it to the court, we will have to send troops to encircle and suppress them. I am afraid that if I push them too hard, they will ruin the birthday ceremony."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "The prince has thought more carefully than the ordinary people, and he is indeed a little bit cautious. However, the option of encircling and recapturing the birthday gift by force has been eliminated, and there is only one other way left."
"What method?" Guo Bing asked in a deep voice. This was the real question he wanted to hear.
"If force is not bad, it can be defeated wisely." Lin Jue said quietly.
"How to outsmart him?" Prince Liang and his son said in unison.
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "There are two ways to be smart. One is to figure out the purpose of this group of gangsters, or negotiate with them to satisfy their purpose, and then get back the birthday gift in exchange. The other is to send someone to sneak into the bandit's stronghold.
Inside, we move with cameras, waiting for an opportunity to recapture the birthday gift. This is the current way to regain the birthday gift without resorting to aggressive warfare."
