In the eldest prince's mansion, Tang Chengqian's eyes flashed with cold light.

Chen Dianjun reported all the information he had collected to Tang Chengqian. When he got the news, his heart was filled with waves.

Tang Chengqian's eyes were blazing with anger, and he said viciously: "Is Father confused? Why did he let the Lin family become Chu Mo's family generals? Has he forgotten the identity of the Lin family's ancestor when the country was founded?"

It turned out that when the ancestor of the Lin family followed the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty to fight, he was a family general of the Tang emperor.

Later, he made numerous contributions and outstanding military exploits, and was rewarded with a title of general and a marquis, and established the Lin family.

Among the many princes competing for the throne, everyone tacitly agreed that the prince whose family the Lin family stood on would be the most likely to inherit the throne. But now he is told that the Lin family has become the retainers of outsiders. How can he accept this?

Over the years, they have tried to win over the Lin family intentionally or unintentionally, but Lin Mingwei's authority in the family is extremely high, and all the Lin family members remain neutral. Even when the Shenwei Marquis Mansion was sealed off and the Lin Mansion fell into decline, he did not give up on winning them over.

The result was still a failure, and Tang Chengqian was filled with resentment.

Chen Dianjun on the side smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is not a bad thing. The current emperor is a wise monarch and it is impossible for him to make such a mistake."

Tang Chengqian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked delighted. He said, "Sir, please analyze this for me. I am very upset right now."

Chen Dianjun smiled and said, "This is the emperor's plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

"Over the years, the Lin Mansion has always been a popular place in the eyes of the princes. Everyone has been scrambling to win over the Lin Mansion, which has caused many low-level officials to panic. Now that Your Highness is in his prime, how can we not deal with this situation?"

"Moreover, the Lin family is a military family with a very high prestige in the army. Since this also involves the issue of military power, how can the emperor not take action? The best way is to suppress the Lin family and make them fade out of people's sight."

Tang Chengqian nodded slightly, agreeing with Chen Dianjun's words, but still asked with doubt: "Then why let them become outsiders' family generals?"

Chen Dianjun smiled and said, "Your Highness, I think Chu Mo is just an excuse. I just got the news that the sealed Shenwei Marquis Mansion has been opened, the Lin family members have gathered together again, and even Lin Ziwu has been released from the Black Prison. Your Highness thinks Chu Mo's ability can subdue the entire Lin family."

"He is just an excuse for the Lin family to gather together. Moreover, Chu Mo comes from Yong'an Town, Liufeng County, Haozhou, which is close to Hanyang Pass. Once Chu Mo returns home, the Lin family, as family generals, must accompany him. Your Highness, guess why the emperor went through so much trouble?"

Tang Chengqian's eyes widened immediately, and he asked, "Is your Majesty going to send the Lin family out to other places and let them take charge of the troops at Hanyang Pass?"

Chen Dianjun smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, the loyalty of the Lin family is well known to everyone, and the cultivation of the commander of Hanyang Pass is indeed not good enough. Late autumn and early winter are also the days when the ancient barbarians often launch wars. Sending the Lin family will definitely be a sure thing."

"This way, we can suppress the princes and calm the hearts of the officials in the imperial capital. At the same time, we can also save the Lin family, keeping them out of the political whirlpool of the capital and keeping them as hidden pawns."

"The emperor's thoughts are so complicated and so frightening."

Chen Dianjun's analysis guessed 50% of the emperor's thoughts and calmed the panicked heart of the eldest prince Tang Chengqian.

At the same time, this scene was played out in the residences of many princes. Everyone was guessing the emperor's intentions, and after a round of analysis, their analysis was almost identical to Chen Dianjun's.

At Mo Yun Xiangxie, everything came to an end and everyone was very happy, especially Tang Feichen. After Chu Mo explained for a while and told him the news about the tiger talisman, Hanyang Pass, etc., he finally understood.

Seeing his brother being pushed out as a shield, Tang Feichen felt amused.

After three rounds of drinks, everyone was already a little tipsy.

Wei Zheng, Tian Yiheng and twelve others were retained by the imperial capital to serve in the government. All of them entered the cabinet and started as scholars.

Tang Feichen also said goodbye to Chu Mo because the war in Yunzhou was tense during this period and sea monsters were madly invading coastal areas. He had to go back to help his father, King Xianyang.

Today, Zhang Qing and Hua Rong each set out with 3,000 recruited soldiers and headed towards Yunzhou.

Everything was on track, and several people around Chu Mo left one after another.

The next day, Chu Mo walked out of the room with his head feeling a little heavy, and Yao Guangxiao handed him a glass of honey water.

Chu Mo took the honey water and drank it, then went to wash up.

Chu Mo had just come back from washing up when he saw Lin Mingwei walking towards him in a hurry.

"My lord, this morning the first, second, and fourth princes all sent me news, saying they would come to visit you at noon today. I saw you were still resting, so I didn't disturb you. Now the time is almost up, what do you need to prepare?"

Chu Mo smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, do you have any ordinary tea in your house? Prepare a pot for me and send it to the banquet hall. Then prepare some snacks."

"If they come, invite them directly into the banquet room and send someone to notify me immediately."

Lin Mingwei seemed to understand Chu Mo's plan. After agreeing, he turned and left.

Soon, the carriages of the three princes arrived at the gate of the mansion.

The eldest prince Tang Chengqian looked up at the plaque on the door and whispered the name on it.

"He is an interesting person, and his name is quite elegant."

At this time, the fourth prince Tang Chengze sneered and said, "Brother, such a lowly thing is worthy of your praise, and the name also has such a heavy worldly flavor, you are worthy of being a person who came from a remote place."

The second prince Tang Chengge didn't seem to be interested in this. He just nodded at the two of them and walked in with the gift.

Tang Chengqian and Tang Chengze signaled their men to take the gifts and walked into the mansion one after another.

Inside the palace, Lin Zhan was waiting there early. After all, as the former General Longxiong, and with the small age difference between them, he had some friendship with the princes.

When Tang Chengqian saw Lin Zhan, he smiled and said, "Lin Zhan, why are you the one entertaining us? Why don't you meet Chu Mo?"

Lin Zhan's eyes were filled with disdain, but he still smiled and said, "My lord, he was hungover last night and just got up. He should be here soon."

Everyone naturally noticed Lin Zhan's look, but they just tacitly understood and didn't mention it.

They didn't know that all this was acted out. It was all Chu Mo's order. He just wanted to let the princes know that he and the Lin family were not on good terms.

The fourth prince Tang Chengze sneered and said, "What a great honor! He still needs me and my brother to wait for him."

Chu Mo walked over from a distance, smiling as he walked, "I'm sorry, Your Highnesses, I've been delayed by something. Please come in."

He walked over quickly and said to Lin Zhan, "There's nothing for you to do here, go down."

There was a hint of coldness in his voice, which formed a sharp contrast with the previous voice.

Pretending that he was not on good terms with the Lin family could confuse the princes and reduce unnecessary trouble.

Lin Zhan didn't say anything, he just bowed to the three princes and left quickly.

Chu Mo looked at the eyes of the three people in front of him and knew that his desired goal had been achieved, and he laughed in his heart.

Chu Mo smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highnesses. I have already asked someone to prepare the best tea. Please come in, Your Highness."

As he spoke, he led the three people into the banquet room.
