On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal
Chapter 265: The son of the same surname can die, but yours can’t?
Lin Zhen waited in the study until night, but instead of the fat man, he waited for three dukes.
One is Lu Dehao's father, Xun Guogong Lu Buting; Hu Guogong Yang Jianchang, and Shang Guogong Dou Ming.
The three old generals used to be Lin Zhenxian's subordinates. Now they are also influential figures among the nobles of Daqian and staunch supporters of the Lin family.
The moment they saw Lin Zhen, they all came forward and bowed.
"I've met the prince."
The three of them bent down at the same time, which made Lin Zhen a little confused.
Logically speaking, they no longer have military power, so even if they knew about Gu Yunsong's situation, they would not come to my house in such a hurry to pay me a visit.
"Why did the three uncles come to the palace?"
Because of Lu Dehao, Lu Buting was the closest to Lin Zhen, so he was the first to say with a chuckle, "Haha, I heard that the prince has organized all the playboys in the capital, so I came to ask, is there something big going on?"
Dou Ming said, "That's right, we're here to see if the prince needs any help. If so, we old guys will go through fire and water for you!"
Yang Jianchang said, "Sir, what exactly happened? I heard that the four major camps have gradually entered the capital. Could it be that you are behind this?"
Looking at the expressions of the three old guys, Lin Zhen knew that things were far from as simple as they said on the surface, so he deliberately laughed it off.
"Oh, it's nothing, just a simple drill."
"Drill? What's a drill?"
"It's just to check the mobility of the army and do a test. The three uncles can rest assured."
"Come on, Prince, how can such a thing be hidden from us?" Lu Buting said with a smile, "Something big must be happening in the capital. Prince, we are not outsiders. Just tell us directly, it will be better than us going back and guessing. If it is really an emergency, maybe we can help."
Logically speaking, these three people were the few forces Lin Zhen could utilize. After all, they were all former military commanders. Even though they had laid down their swords for many years, their foundation and connections were still there. It was far easier for them to command the four camps than it was for Lin Zhen.
But Lin Zhen was reluctant to trust them. Who knew what had happened over the years? So military power must not be handed over, but it was okay to tell them the whole story.
"I suspect Gu Yunsong is planning a rebellion."
"what?"
"hiss..."
"How could this be?"
The three of them gasped almost at the same time.
What courage!
What courage.
The prince dared to rebel while he was still alive. Looking at the entire Daqian, he is the only scorpion daddy.
Lu Buting asked solemnly, "Prince, is the information accurate?"
“It’s not quite there yet, but I have to prepare in advance.”
"In that case, the three of us brothers will each lead a battalion to guard the city gate, and the prince will lead another battalion."
"No."
Although the purpose of Lu Buting's doing this is unknown, the military power must be in Lin Zhen's own hands.
He looked at Lubuting with deep eyes and a serious expression.
"Uncle Lu, you'd better stay back and don't cause trouble at this critical moment."
Lu Buting was so frightened by his stare that his entire body went berserk. Then, after pondering the deeper meaning behind his words, he flew into a rage: "Hey, you little bastard, what do you think of your Uncle Lu? Do you think I'm going to rebel like Gu Yunsong?"
"That's not the case. I just consider that my uncles are too old to fight on the battlefield anymore."
"Nonsense! When your uncle Lu was the general of the Tianwu Guard, you were still wearing crotchless pants! Why can't you fight on the battlefield?"
Dou Ming said, "That's right, Prince. Although we are old, we can still wield a sword. Leading a battalion to defend the city is a piece of cake for us."
Even if they said anything, Lin Zhen would not agree to their request.
He would never entrust his life and property to others. That would be irresponsible to himself and even more dereliction of duty to his loved ones.
"I appreciate your kindness, uncles. But this matter is really not negotiable." Lin Zhen's expression was firm, and there was unquestionable certainty in his words. Seeing this, the three dukes stopped trying to persuade him.
Yang Jianchang spoke up, "Since the Crown Prince disagrees, we can't persuade him any further. If there really is a war in the capital, I am willing to contribute 500 soldiers to the Crown Prince's command! I will do my best for the country!"
"Me too!" Lu Buting immediately echoed, "With just one word from the prince, not only the palace soldiers, but even my uncle, who weighs over a hundred pounds, can go to the battlefield at any time!"
"me too!"
The more he said this, the more suspicious Lin Zhen became.
Now they are no longer the passionate young men they used to be, but politicians.
As for any politician, why would he get up early without any benefit?
"I'll remember the kindness of the three uncles."
"Well, ahem...," Yang Jianchang said, "Prince, your uncle is willing to contribute the palace soldiers to you. Then your elder brother and younger brother won't have to go to the battlefield, right? We only have two sons in the family. If something happens, how will our whole family survive?"
Dou Ming also said: "That's right, Prince. We are old and we won't die following you to the battlefield, but the children should not go. It's better for them to stay at home."
Lu Buting's family has four sons, including Lu Dehao, and they also followed suit.
"Sir, your uncle knows about your relationship with Dehao, but he can't even endure hardship right now, let alone go to the battlefield. How about this? I'll contribute the money from our cloth shop to help you fight! As for those four brats, they should stay in the city."
Understood.
Lin Zhen finally understood.
What about going to the battlefield and asking for military power? It's all fucking bullshit!
It seems that they are afraid that their sons will go to the battlefield, so they come to plead for mercy.
Damn it, Lin Zhen got angry instantly.
"Bullshit!" Lin Zhen slammed the table and stood up, pointing at the noses of the three old men and cursing them without caring about their seniority or status.
"You are considered nobles, yet you have the nerve to say such things! What? Do you think I'm young and easy to bully? I don't believe you dare to make such a request to the prince!"
No one expected Lin Zhen to get angry so quickly, and for a moment they were all choked and dared not say a word.
Lu Buting moved his mouth: "Prince...you can't say that..."
"What do you mean? Tell me what to say? Damn it, ordinary people's sons can die, but yours can't? Is it because you've enjoyed a few years of peace and quiet that you can't hold a knife anymore and are afraid of death?!" Lin Zhen scanned the entire audience with his fingers.
"I know you're here on behalf of Hachiko's forces, but I'm telling you, and tell them too! If anyone dares to make such a request to me again, I'll let that person's son be the first to rush forward! Damn it, I'm so pissed!"
