"call!"
Li Lin, who was escorted back to the Prime Minister's residence by Fan Kuai, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, in front of Hu Hai.
He was actually under tremendous psychological pressure.
on the one hand.
Hu Hai's cruelty is well known. When he was ruthless, he even slaughtered his own brothers and sisters. Although the imperial family is known to be ruthless, killing brothers who posed a threat to the throne is not entirely unreasonable.
Even someone as wise as Li Shimin chose this path.
Even if it's a stain, how could it affect Li Shimin?
But Hu Hai was different.
Killing brothers and sisters—this is utterly depraved.
As a result, most of the descendants of the First Emperor did not die at the hands of the people of the six states or at the hands of peasant rebels, but were wiped out by Hu Hai.
Not to mention his administrative strategies, the direct cause of the Qin Dynasty's demise was Hu Hai.
Although the First Emperor bore the brunt of the blame, after his death, the Qin Dynasty operated entirely according to his system, and it wouldn't have perished in just two years.
It can hold on for at least another twenty or thirty years.
Hu Hai accelerated this process.
Therefore, he dared not disobey Hu Hai, otherwise, the impulsive Hu Hai might accidentally kill him, which would be a great loss.
on the other hand.
However, he was unaware of the specific extent of Hu Hai's power.
If they openly challenge Hu Hai, they could easily be caught off guard by Hu Hai's forces lurking in the shadows.
So much so that his level of tension just now was no less than when he was in front of the First Emperor.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
Just then, Manyin had finished washing her hair and getting dressed, and was folding the quilt when Li Lin suddenly pushed open the door, sat down beside her, and looked somewhat dejected.
This made her feel concerned.
"My lady, do you know where my husband went just now?"
"I know, weren't you asked to leave by Brother Hai?"
You know?
"The doorman came to report when you left."
"That's not true. I was forcibly taken away."
"ah?"
Man Yin was somewhat surprised when Li Lin suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered something.
Her face flushed instantly, and she said shyly, "Husband, I'm afraid this won't do. What if I don't act fierce enough?"
"Ahem, just imagine what a shrew looks like, and act like that, otherwise that little brat Huhai will get his way. Tell me, do you want Fusu to be the crown prince, or do you want Huhai to be the crown prince?"
"It must be Brother Fusu!"
"Then do as your husband says!"
Looking at the reluctant Manyin in front of him, Li Lin also felt somewhat hesitant.
After all, she is too gentle.
How can someone like her, when playing the role of a shrew, not be fierce enough?
If we fail to intimidate Linglong, or even kick her out, we might end up leaving.
This would actually confine you to your own self-imposed limitations.
"Alright, I'll give it a try!"
An hour passed.
At dawn, drumming suddenly broke out outside the Prime Minister's residence.
Li Lin, who was eating breakfast at the time, immediately glanced at Manyin knowingly.
She was a little embarrassed.
Reluctantly, he put down his chopsticks, put on what he thought was a very cold expression in front of the bronze mirror, and then led a few servants to the gate of the mansion.
"Who are you? What are you doing making such a commotion outside the Prime Minister's residence?"
Her phoenix eyes, which were originally gentle and tender, suddenly turned slightly fierce.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, don't you recognize me?"
"Oh? You are...you are Uncle Luo, the steward of Hai Di's residence? Why aren't you at home serving your young master? What are you doing here in my house with so many people?"
"Your Highness, you don't know, my young master had a very pleasant conversation with the Prime Minister. During the meal, the Prime Minister was very satisfied with Linglong, the singing girl my young master kept. Therefore, my young master reluctantly gave Linglong to the Prime Minister to help him achieve his goal."
Luo Ping chuckled and explained the whole story in just a few words.
This startled Manyin.
What did my husband ask just now?
Oh, right, we should refuse to let this delicate girl into our household.
"Hmph, so that's what I thought! So it's just a little vixen. Lift the curtain and let me take a look at what this little vixen is like!"
"Oh? This is absolutely unacceptable, Your Highness! Miss Linglong is the Prime Minister's darling. If you treat Miss Linglong like this in public, it is hardly appropriate!"
At this moment, Luo Ping immediately realized that the princess was deliberately looking for trouble.
When he arrived, Hu Hai had already instructed him to be wary of the tigress in the Prime Minister's residence.
Now, he has to be more cautious.
"What? Can't this little vixen be shown to outsiders? Fellow villagers, what do you say?"
She was a little nervous.
But then I suddenly remembered that Li Lin had mentioned in one of his books that it was necessary to mobilize the power of the masses, and I immediately saw the neighbors and passersby watching from the sidelines.
He immediately came up with a plan.
Her question immediately drew their attention.
This really drove Luo Ping crazy.
Hu Hai gave him a death order!
"Your Highness, Your Highness, please don't be silly!"
"Hmph, I am the mistress of this Prime Minister's residence. How dare you say I'm being unreasonable? Fellow villagers, come and judge for me. Tell me, am I being unreasonable?"
