Happy Emperor

Chapter 39 The enemy of my enemy is my friend

When Ji Qiang heard that Emperor Li had also confirmed this, his expression suddenly became serious.

If King Pingdong really knew that the prince was not dead, he would not have killed this guy so easily.

Because he knew that King Pingdong had always treated the prince as his son.

If you kill, the hatred will never end.

"Your Majesty, what should we do with this person?" Ji Qiang asked with a frown.

Lin Tian's eyes were slightly cold, and he did not reply.

He was considering the pros and cons of the matter.

He was absolutely certain that if the prince in front of him gained power, he would not let him go.

But if he kills the prince now without any consequences, he will completely lose the capital for peaceful negotiations with the King of the East.

Seeing Lin Tian was a little hesitant.

The prince standing aside thought that Lin Tian didn't dare to confront him again.

The panicked expression just now was replaced by arrogance.

"Sixth brother, if you are willing to hand over the military power to me now and let me control Shengjing, I, as your elder brother, will not hold a grudge against you for what happened today."

"Your Majesty, you can't do that." Ji Qiang urged urgently.

He knew the former prince too well. Even if he didn't kill the prince, he couldn't hand over the military power.

If Emperor Li really did that, he would die miserably the moment he handed over his military power.

Similarly, he will certainly not escape death, and even the entire Ji family will be executed.

"Really? You don't hold a grudge against me for forcing you to eat that thing just now?"

Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and looked at the prince.

He had not made up his mind yet when he saw the prince's face.

No more hesitation, this man must be killed!

When the prince heard that Lin Tian dared to mention this matter, the stench in his mouth made him feel even more disgusted.

An inexplicable feeling of humiliation suddenly surged into my heart.

"you......"

The prince wanted to explode, his fists clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound.

He never expected that his sixth brother, whom he had never looked down upon, would actually humiliate him today.

Oh shit!

When you hand over your military power, I will make you eat shit until you die of fullness!

The prince swore fiercely in his heart.

However, now is not the time.

The prince forced a smile.

"Sixth brother, how could I possibly blame you? Not only will I not blame you, I will also make you king, and the throne will be hereditary for generations to come."

"Besides, the waters of Daxia are so deep right now that you can't control it. Let your brother bear this hardship."

"Really? Then my brother really thanks you!"

Lin Tian sneered at the naive prince.

"We are all brothers, don't be polite."

The corner of the prince's mouth curled up, he thought Lin Tian had been fooled.

A wimp is still a wimp after all!

"emperor!"

Ji Qiang was extremely anxious listening to this. He now regretted not killing the prince directly on the road.

"Ji Qiang, have you ever heard a saying?"

Lin Tian ignored the prince, but looked at Ji Qiang and said with a smile: "Listen to people's advice and eat your fill!"

"Your Majesty, are you really going to hand over your military power? I..."

Ji Qiang held the sword tightly in his hand, as long as Emperor Li really nodded.

Then he would assassinate the prince without hesitation.

He would rather be executed by Emperor Li than endure the inhuman torture of the prince in the future.

"Ji Qiang, we're just brothers talking, when is it your turn to interrupt?"

Seeing Ji Qiang trying to stop him again and again, the prince angrily rebuked him.

"Sixth brother, if you say so, are you willing to hand over the military power?"

"I'm sorry, but my brother is naturally rebellious and doesn't want to listen to anyone's advice."

Lin Tian smiled grimly, his eyes flashing with coldness.

He said coldly, "Ji Qiang, are you waiting for me to do it myself?"

"You...you...you want to kill me, my uncle will not let you go, my father in the afterlife..."

The prince didn't wait for him to finish speaking.

Ji Qiang's sword had already penetrated his chest.

The prince never understood until his death why his sixth brother, whom he had always looked down upon, had become so cruel.

"Please arrange for someone to clean this place up. This room stinks."

"Your Majesty, Prince Pingdong will know about this sooner or later. What should we do?"

"If it's a blessing, it won't cause trouble. If it's a disaster, it can't be avoided. Cold dish!"

After saying this, Lin Tian turned around and left the South Study.

Ji Qiang was left with a confused look on his face.

"Isn't this too cool?"

But think about it, now that things have come to this, what's the point of being afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind.

......

next day

The sky was just beginning to brighten.

The strange smell from yesterday was no longer in the South Study.

Lin Tian summoned Baturin to the palace early in the morning.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what important matter you have summoned me to discuss so early in the morning?"

Baturin felt a little uneasy when he saw Emperor Li.

He always felt that Emperor Li wanted to harm him all the time.

"Father-in-law, I just want to chat with you. Is there something else?"

Lin Tian thought all night last night about whether he should tell Baturin about King Pingdong.

Because Baturin was informed, his plan to take over Ningfeng Province was ruined.

But if he didn't tell him, once Prince Pingdong took over the two provinces and sent a large number of troops to the city of Shengjing, he would be powerless to resist.

However, with the Queen's guidance, Lin Tian suddenly realized one thing, that is, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

So they finally decided to join forces with Baturin to resist King Pingdong.

I’ll find a chance to talk to Lin Tianyang later.

"Absolutely not. My daughter has not yet married a Majesty, so it is inappropriate to address her like that."

Baturin refused coldly.

Seeing that Emperor Li was just trying to find something to say, Baturin was too lazy to stay in the palace.

"If your Majesty has no urgent business, I have matters to attend to at home, so I will take my leave first."

"Don't worry, I want to show you something!"

Lin Tian's warm welcome was met with a cold shoulder.

Not intending to beat around the bush, he took out the letter sent back by the Batu family's personnel stationed in Ningfeng Province and handed it to Baturin.

"This is?"

Baturin took the letter from Lin Tian and looked at him with suspicion and doubt.

"Is my father-in-law illiterate?"

After making a sarcastic remark, Lin Tian picked up the teacup and slowly sipped the tea.

His eyes observed the changes in Baturin's expression from time to time.

Baturin's face gradually became gloomy, and finally veins popped out on his forehead, and he was on the verge of becoming furious.

"How...how long have you known about this?"

Seeing that the truth was revealed, Baturin decided not to hide it anymore.

With a fierce look in his eyes, he stared at Lin Tian and questioned him.

"Twenty days ago!" Lin Tian replied indifferently.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that I have more than 50,000 officers and soldiers!"

Baturin threatened Qi Lintian, "I am not afraid to tell you that I still have 100,000 soldiers and horses at the border of Shengjing. As long as..."

"Stop bragging!" Lin Tian interrupted.

He hates it most when people threaten him at every turn.

"If you really dare to attack Shengjing, would you still need to transport grain secretly?"

"you you."

Baturin was speechless after being criticized by Lin Tian.

But just as Lin Tian said, he would not dare to send his troops into Shengjing unless it was absolutely necessary.

After all, King Pingdong was eyeing his southern border covetously, ready to devour him at any time.

"Then what do you mean by telling me this news?"

Baturin suddenly thought that it would be more beneficial for Emperor Li not to say anything about this matter.

Once his 50,000 troops arrive in Ningfeng Province, they will definitely fail without sufficient food and supplies.

Emperor Li could take advantage of this opportunity to reap the benefits.
