The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 597

[Chapter 597: Deployment Begins]

Actually… the reason why the emperor asked Lin Tian to handle the palace banquet this time was for another more important thing, which was to allow Lin Tian to

make some more deployments when no one else was prepared. Such deployments were naturally aimed at the people of the two countries. Otherwise, once the people of Liang came, if they wanted to do something, even if they did not make any deployments in advance, it would not work.

Moreover, such deployments had to be made so that other people could not find out at all, and it was not good to leave a handle for others. The emperor hoped that he could pretend that he did not find out what the people of Liang did.

So… he also needed to act well in this scene. As for Lin Tian and others, there was no need to talk too much. There were also those people before, but those who knew about this matter now had to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

They must not expose their unfriendly attitude towards the people of Liang, unless the people of the two countries took the lead in doing something, they could fight back, so that even if the two countries went to war, they would have taken the lead.

It must be said that there was nothing wrong with this idea, but the details depended on Lin Tian’s arrangements, and whether it could be arranged depended on Lin Tian’s ability.

Because he had already agreed to this, Lin Tian spent the rest of his time either at home or in the palace. He had almost no time to

spare. And the people who had always been with Lin Tian, except Lin Kang, had no other people. They all had their own things to do.

It was impossible for him to always be with others, and the only person who was worthy of Lin Tian’s 100% trust was Lin Kang.

Originally, the head of the Qin family wanted to visit him in person, just to see if this matter was related to Lin Tian. Anyway, in the eyes of the head of the Qin family, it was probably because of Lin Tian. That’s why the

current situation happened, but… But later, because he knew that Lin Tian was always busy, he probably didn’t have time to see him for these things.

So… the head of the Qin family could only give up this idea temporarily, thinking about waiting until Lin Tian had time, and as he was so busy every day, other people gradually knew about it.

It turned out that the emperor had already made such an arrangement with Lin Tian. Although he didn’t tell other people, the current situation is believed to be clear at a glance.

They couldn’t not understand it. After learning about this, these people were also somewhat surprised, perhaps because in their opinion, this matter was indeed a little strange.

Although there would be palace banquets around this time in previous years, it was obvious that it was not just at this time. It was not too early or too late, and it was at least half a month later than usual.

Why the palace banquet was stuck at this time, everyone else had some guesses in their hearts. If they were some people who knew the reason, they could barely know why, and they also knew the emperor’s good intentions. That

‘s why the emperor made such a decision, and for other people who didn’t know the situation, they could only ask others about the situation. If they couldn’t ask…

they could only choose to guess by themselves. After all, not everyone could guess the emperor’s thoughts, so it was not certain whether their guesses were accurate or not.

Anyway, many people now attach great importance to these things, and the voices of discussion are one after another, “I don’t know what the emperor means now, why did he suddenly make such a decision?”

“That’s right, he didn’t even give us a process to accept it. Is there any special situation? That made the emperor prepare the palace banquet in advance?”

“And I heard… the guests this time also include people from Liang State and other small countries. It seems that it will be very lively! Although there were some before, they didn’t appear at this time after all.”

“And now at this juncture, suddenly asking them to come, what exactly does it mean? I don’t know what the emperor is thinking. We really can’t guess.”

Those people gathered in twos and threes, thinking about this problem, but unfortunately they have never been able to figure it out, and the emperor naturally couldn’t take the initiative to explain.

As the emperor, those who understand his thoughts will naturally understand, and as for those who don’t understand, they will understand when the time is right, so there is no need to explain.

Outside the palace, many people were dissatisfied with this, such as Prime Minister Zhao. Although he seemed to be friendly on the surface, he actually didn’t think so in his heart.

Especially after the last incident, Prime Minister Zhao was even more dissatisfied, and he even hated Lin Tian.

Now, hearing that Lin Tian was reused by the emperor to handle the palace banquet, and he was in full power, they, the ministers, were envious.

Although this job was not a good job, since the emperor had this idea, it was estimated that Lin Tian would be promoted soon…

Maybe the next promotion would fall on Lin Tian’s head. Damn, when Prime Minister Zhao thought of this, he felt bad.

There were also a group of people around Prime Minister Zhao to protect him from the rain. They originally wanted to discuss countermeasures around the two major events this time. After hearing such words, Prime Minister Zhao didn’t speak for a while, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a long while, someone was still urging: “Prime Minister Zhao finally came to his senses. The voices of those people were not loud or soft, but they were loud enough for people to hear…

“Prime Minister Zhao, what’s the matter with you? Why don’t you say a word? I wonder what Prime Minister Zhao thinks about this matter, and how should we deal with it?”

“Yes, Prime Minister Zhao, are we just going to ignore this matter? This is a bit bad, right? What if Lin Tian really steps on our heads, what should we do?”

“That’s right, Ming Tian is much younger than us, how can he step on our heads? No matter what, we have been old ministers for more than ten years or even decades.”

“How can such a young guy treat us like this? If such a situation really happens, it will be too embarrassing for us!”

“That’s right. Even if it’s just to save our reputation, we need to do something. Otherwise, we might as well just get rid of Lin Tian. Anyway, I’ve disliked him for a long time…”
