Beauty and the Bodyguard - #11321 - Chapter 11321:
With Lu Chunfeng’s ability and background, it is not difficult to become a noble minister of one house, but to become a noble minister of six houses at the same time is almost a fantasy.
At least in this matter, he knew very well that he had lost to Lin Yi.
With his pride as Lu Chunfeng, he forced himself to truly recognize this. How easy was it?
Lu Chunfeng couldn’t help but feel a sense of joy.
Fortunately, I had sown the seeds of strange things in Lin Yi early. Otherwise, with Lin Yi’s growth momentum, it would be not only possible but extremely possible for Lin Yi to overwhelm him in the future!
Even if Lu Chunfeng is unwilling to do so, he has to admit that if his family background is put aside, Lin Yi’s level will most likely be above him!
In fact, from the perspective of a bystander, it is already the case now.
Lü Chunfeng was just the heir to the Lu family of Liao Jing Prefecture, but Lin Yi was now the noble minister of the Six Prefectures and the promoter of the alliance. In terms of influence on the entire inner court structure, the gap had already widened.
Fortunately, after all, it was just Lu Chunfeng’s leeks.
Watching Lu Chunfeng leave in anger, Li Zhulong couldn’t help but be ecstatic.
He had already accepted his fate just now.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi made the ultimate comeback in an understatement!
However, despite being ecstatic, Li Zhulong couldn’t help but feel a little more in awe when facing Lin Yi in front of him.
He is the head of the Li family in Fengtian Mansion. To put it bluntly, his personal level is higher than that of Lin Yi.
Especially if you succeed in becoming the Third Duke, the gap between them will inevitably widen further.
By then, even if he has no intention of burning bridges, at least the cooperation model between them will have to change. After all, he is at a higher level and must be the leader.
However, now, looking at the six pieces of Wang Ling on the table, Li Zhulong’s little thought suddenly disappeared.
Because he suddenly discovered that without knowing it, Lin Yi had become the number one person he couldn’t afford to mess with!
Lin Yi has the Liufu Alliance behind him. Li Zhulong can be regarded as the high-ranking Tutor, so what?
In the end, it was Lin Yi who had to do the talking.
Not to mention that his position as Taifu was given to him by Lin Yi.
Lin Yi turned around and the two of them looked at each other. Li Zhulong quickly apologized and said nothing.
the other side.
When the chamberlain reported this scene, Emperor Zhou was shocked and lost his temper on the spot.
Lin Yi helped Li Zhulong get six votes. This incident itself did not surprise him. After all, Lin Yi had reported to him about the alliance from the beginning, otherwise he would not have handed over the emperor’s flag to him. In Lin Yi’s hands.
But Lin Yi actually got six pieces of Wang Ling, which really surprised him.
“This chess piece is a bit too big.”
Zhou Tianzi murmured at a loss for words.
The reason why he chose to support Lin Yi was because he regarded him as his chess piece.
Lin Yi’s personal power has grown, which is in line with his expectations, but if it grows too fast all of a sudden, that’s another story.
After all, the primary criterion for evaluating whether a chess piece is a good chess piece is not how strong the chess piece is, but whether it is obedient or not.
If Lin Yi was alone, Emperor Zhou would still have the confidence to have him in his hands.
But now that the Hezong Alliance is about to be established, and Lin Yi himself has become a noble minister of the Sixth Mansion, this really makes him a little worried.
Compared with the title of the emperor’s favorite, compared with this noble minister of the Sixth Prefecture, the title is more than a step behind.
In the final analysis, he is just a puppet emperor.
The chamberlain raised his head cautiously and said, “I thought your majesty could give it a proper beating.”
He is a die-hard confidant of Emperor Zhou, and Emperor Zhou trusts him even more than Zhou Youshi, his biological sister. Zhou Tianzi frowned and said, “Now that my wings are hardened, you can beat them by just tapping them? You are a brainless thing.”
I said this, but in reality, I didn’t mean to blame him at all.
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Tianzi pointed at the table and said, “Tell me, how do you beat it?”
The chamberlain said cautiously: “Actually, your Majesty doesn’t need to do anything. As long as you press the appointment of Taifu for a while, he will naturally understand the meaning.”
According to the process, after the seven kings discussed it together, the next process was for Emperor Zhou to make a final announcement, and then Li Zhulong would be able to take up the position of Sangong Taifu.
“This is quite interesting.”
Zhou Tianzi smacked his chin.
Given his current relationship with Lin Yi, it is obviously not possible to directly reject Li Zhulong.
If he really does that, not only will all his previous investment in Lin Yi be wasted, but more importantly, it will completely push Lin Yi into the opposite direction.
Wu Wudi is still imprisoned on the ninth floor of the Tianlao. Lin Yi is now a noble minister of the Sixth Mansion and has a huge influence on the Hezong Alliance. If he falls out with Lin Yi at this time, it will definitely be purely out of his mind. shit.
On the other hand, if, as the chamberlain said, he did not directly veto the appointment, but just delayed the process for a few days, then there would be no such concerns.
This way, you won’t fall out directly, but you can also give Lin Yi a proper beating to get him into a correct position, which is the best of both worlds.
“Then press it first.”
Zhou Tianzi stretched, stood up and said, “Let’s go to the garden and have a sip of tea.”
At this moment, another chamberlain hurried into the palace and reported: “Your Majesty, Lin Yi and Li Zhulong want to see you.”
Zhou Tianzi’s face was startled, and his eyes suddenly became a little panicked and angry.
“What does he mean? He came to seek help from the widowed man to force him into a palace?”
However, after calming down for a moment, Emperor Zhou finally did not close the door.
To be precise, he didn’t dare.
With Lin Yi before, he could just say he didn’t see her, but in front of Lin Yi today, he really didn’t dare to show off like this.
In the end, Emperor Zhou had no choice but to take a deep breath: “Xuan.”
Lin Yi and Li Zhulong immediately entered the palace to see him.
After the ceremony, Emperor Zhou thought that the two of them would be impatient. However, to his surprise, Lin Yi did not mention the matter of the Tutor at all.
“Your Majesty, I have reached an agreement with the six royal palaces. The alliance ceremony will be held in three days. The six royal palaces unanimously request your majesty to attend and ask for your permission.”
Zhou Tianzi was stunned when he heard this, and then his face showed ecstasy: “Is this true?”
However, as soon as the words came out, he realized that he had lost his composure.
It’s no wonder he lost his composure.
The reason why he was happy to see the alliance come to fruition before was that the six princes’ palaces could unite to better contain the menacing Qin Palace. As for how important a position he could play in it, he did not dare to Extravagant hope.
But if he attends the alliance ceremony in person, even if the alliance leader is still the Prince of Qi, his influence as the emperor will inevitably increase invisibly.
Because this is equivalent to clearly telling the world that the Hezong Alliance and the Emperor Zhou are one, and the six princes are on the side of the Emperor Zhou!
This is what he has always dreamed of. (End of chapter)
