Zhao Lin shook his head and said, "That's because Your Majesty didn't do anything to him. As far as I know, Zhao Jingzhou dotes on Zhao Chenhan and treats him better than his own son. If Your Majesty punishes Zhao Chenhan, regardless of the reason, I'm afraid Zhao Jingzhou will harbor resentment. His position is very important. Whether it's the 200,000 elite troops under his command or the defense against the Northern Di, any move would affect the safety of the court. Your Majesty must consider this carefully."
Cheng** asked, "What do you think?"
Zhao Lin said without hesitation: "For the sake of the country, Your Majesty, please endure the humiliation for a while, let Zhao Chenhan go, and only kill Concubine Rong."
"Let him go?" Cheng** was furious.
Letting go of a man who had cuckolded him was more painful to him than slapping him in the face.
"Just let him go temporarily." Zhao Lin said: "When someone can take over the Zhenbei Army, no matter what, it will not cause unrest in the Zhenbei Army and foreign enemies will not take the opportunity to invade. Then Your Majesty can deal with him as you please. By then, you can find any excuse. Can this Zhao Chenhan still turn against you?"
Cheng ** looked at Zhao Lin quietly: "Zhao Chenhan has been asking people to persuade me to kill you, but you persuade me not to kill him?"
Zhao Lin said, "I do want to kill Zhao Chenhan, but I cannot let this harm the nation. Otherwise, I will never be able to atone for my sins even if I die a hundred times. So, Your Majesty, please endure the humiliation for now and wait until Zhao Jingzhou is replaced."
"You are a loyal minister!" Cheng** said.
After saying that, he turned and left.
Zhu Zhongyan gave Zhao Lin a thumbs up and followed him.
Only after the two of them had disappeared did Zhao Lin stand up and smile.
This was the reason why he went to jail to lure Zhao Chenhan.
Zhao Chenhan can be killed with ease.
But Zhao Jingzhou is different.
His status and even position are too high and too critical.
If you want to move against him, you have to replace him from his position as the chief officer of Zhenbei Pass in advance.
Otherwise, Zhao Lin would not be able to forgive himself for losing Zhenbei Pass because of his personal grudge.
He is no longer the same person he was when he first traveled through time. Now he has a wife and a family, and he should consider them.
That night, Cheng** stayed overnight in Shuyu Palace.
Rong Fei angrily expressed her dissatisfaction with Zhao Lin, and Cheng ** was furious and immediately ordered Zhao Lin to be beheaded.
The news spread that night and everyone was shocked.
"Is the Emperor so fond of Concubine Rong that he could kill her just because a Governor-General said so?"
"It seems I'll have to spend more time with the Wu family in the future."
"I didn't expect Zhao Lin to be so arrogant and domineering that he didn't even care about the people of the Xiong family, but he actually fell into the hands of a woman."
"What a shame, pitiful, lamentable."
Many people were talking about it.
The prince was thankful, "Fortunately, I didn't go to my father to plead for Zhao Lin."
Prince Yu rejected Zhao Mingzhu's request to Cheng ** to plead for mercy: "The emperor is in a state of mood swings right now, so it's better not to provoke him. Anyway, my father-in-law doesn't like Zhao Lin, so let it be."
Li Weibai's eyes widened. "Why is he going to kill Zhao Lin when I haven't even gone to ask for mercy from my brother?"
Bai Shiyuan got the news and shook his head and sighed.
Bai Shicheng opened his mouth wide: "Zhao Lin also said he would treat us to a drink."
Fu Liqing and Fu Wenqi were a little panicked. The situation seemed beyond their expectations. They wanted to find someone, but Fu Chengwang and Li Xingye were both imprisoned and no one dared to see them.
Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
The lights are on.
Han Yuehua sat there, looking dazed.
Zhao Mingxiao, Zhao Mingyu, Zhao Mingya and Zhao Chenhan were accompanying him. The atmosphere was depressing and no one spoke.
Suddenly, news came from the palace that Cheng ** wanted to kill Zhao Lin, and they all felt complicated.
Sudden.
The sound of footsteps rang out, and Zhao Mingyue hurried in, saying hastily, "Mother, have you heard? The Emperor wants to kill Zhao Lin."
Han Yuehua raised her head and looked at Zhao Mingyue, and her confused expression scared Zhao Mingyue.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Mingyue asked.
Zhao Chenhan coughed lightly and said, "We all know about Big Brother's affairs."
Zhao Mingyue asked, "Should we still save him?"
Zhao Mingxiao sighed: "How to save him?"
Zhao Mingyue opened her mouth and could only sit down in silence.
In their opinion, if they want to save Zhao Lin, they can only let Zhao Jingzhou come forward.
But what’s the reason?
If it is revealed that Zhao Lin is his biological son, will Zhao Chenhan be sad?
Moreover, would it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?
But if you don't save...
"Can't save him!"
After a long moment, Han Yuehua slowly shook her head: "He has already angered His Majesty, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly wanted to kill him. Saving him will implicate us all. Chen Han finally became a Hanlin, and he hasn't even become an official yet, so he can't be harmed by this."
Zhao Chenhan breathed a sigh of relief and pretended to be touched: "I am not important. If I don't save you, big brother will die."
Zhao Mingya said impatiently, "We shouldn't have saved him. He doesn't treat us as family anyway. He wants to kill us. Why should we save him?"
Zhao Mingyu said, "But if we don't save him, he will die."
"It's better for him to die. If he doesn't die, he will come to harm us sooner or later." Zhao Mingya said indifferently.
There was another silence.
Zhao Mingyue asked, "Big sister didn't come?"
As he was speaking, Zhao Mingzhu came back.
"The prince said that the emperor ordered me to kill Zhao Lin overnight. If I go to plead for him now, it will definitely anger the emperor and I will easily be implicated." Zhao Mingzhu said.
"In other words, you won't save him anymore?" Zhao Mingxiao asked.
Zhao Mingzhu nodded helplessly: "Even the prince doesn't care about him, and the prince doesn't want to care either."
"That's all."
Han Yuehua sighed and said, "This is his fate."
The final word!
Zhao Mingxiao and Zhao Mingyu both wanted to say something, but remained silent.
Zhao Mingyue sighed.
