Jun Xiaoyao still didn't quite understand what Jun Lintian meant at this moment.

He has only focused on cultivation throughout his life and doesn't know much about these other things.

I have always just followed orders.

In the past two days, Jun Xiaoyao has been collecting information inside Xuanwu City according to Jun Lintian's instructions.

And passed it on to Jun Haotian who was far away in Xuanyang City.

But he still didn't quite understand why the most anxious person was Emperor Zhou, not Emperor Wu?
"Please teach me, young master."

Jun Xiaoyao bowed towards Jun Lintian.

Jun Lintian smiled and said, "Emperor Zhou has been trying to strike at the power of the Jun family from the beginning."

"That's why he sent my father to lead 100,000 elite soldiers to fight against the Xuanwu Empire."

"He had a good idea, thinking that this war would really break out, but he was wrong."

"This young master knows very well that the Emperor Wu has no intention of fighting at all, so this young master will not mobilize the troops after letting father occupy Xuanyang City."

"In this confrontation, the Jun family will negotiate with the Xuanwu Empire to gain greater benefits, and there will be no loss at all."

Jun Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and he also said, "So Emperor Zhou has lost both his wife and his troops."

"This time, our Jun family will not only gain greater benefits, but Emperor Zhou will gain nothing at all."

Jun Lintian nodded in appreciation.

It's comfortable to talk to smart people.

Jun Xiaoyao asked again in confusion: "By the way, what about the eldest prince of the Xuanwu Empire?"

"Now that he has been put in solitary confinement by Emperor Wu, I'm afraid he won't cause any more trouble in the future."

He understood the young master's thoughts very well. If he wanted to gain greater benefits, he had to make the other party make mistakes.

But Emperor Wu was indeed patient and had no intention of mobilizing troops for war for such a long time.

On the contrary, only the eldest prince was the most impatient and kept making trouble.

But now the eldest prince is in solitary confinement, and it is unknown how long he will be released.

Jun Lintian grinned and said, "Don't worry, the eldest prince will be released in two days."

"Why?" Jun Xiaoyao was a little confused.

He really couldn't see through his own young master now.

Even though the young master doesn't seem to do anything serious on weekdays, he actually understands this information very thoroughly.

Jun Xiaoyao really didn't understand where the young master got the information from.

Even though he had not investigated some information and some people's personalities clearly, the young master knew them thoroughly.

Jun Lintian glanced at Jun Xiaoyao after hearing this, and then said, "The eldest prince's mother is obviously the same person as Queen Su."

"Although I don't know their personalities very well, I understand human nature."

"These women all want to maintain their current status, and the only ones they can rely on are their sons, so Feng Zhuyue will definitely ask Emperor Wu to let the eldest prince go."

When he said this, Jun Lintian narrowed his eyes slightly.

Today in the council hall, he had actually seen what Emperor Wu was planning.

Emperor Wu clearly still wanted to protect the eldest prince, so he only put him in solitary confinement instead of throwing him in jail.

If Feng Zhuyue had just whispered something in Emperor Wu's ear, the Emperor would have certainly been swayed and would have released the eldest prince.

This time, the eldest prince might be smarter and not go against me anymore.

But Jun Lintian would naturally have another way to anger the eldest prince.

He wanted to see if Emperor Wu, a man who was decisive in killing, would personally execute his own son like Emperor Zhou did. After Jun Xiaoyao heard what Jun Lintian said, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

As he got to know the young master more and more, he now found that he knew him less and less.

But this is also a good thing, because truly powerful people will never let others know what they are thinking.

And the young master is gradually becoming such a person.

There was a hint of relief in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes. He thought that as a quasi-emperor master, he should assist such a capable person.

--------

Two days later.

Jun Xiaoyao was surprised to find that things were just as the young master had said, the eldest prince Xuan Fei was actually released from confinement.

Although he was only kept in solitary confinement for two days, the eldest prince was visibly depressed.

Jun Xiaoyao was originally following Jun Lintian, so he was drinking tea in the teahouse at this moment.

Jun Lintian naturally also noticed the eldest prince Xuan Fei.

At this moment, the eldest prince's clothes were a little messy, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He originally had a domineering attitude, but now he has completely restrained himself. I don't know what he has been thinking about these two days.

However, Jun Lintian felt that perhaps it was Feng Zhuyue who taught the eldest prince something.

In short, the current eldest prince obviously doesn't seem like someone who will continue to target Jun Lintian.

A wicked smile appeared on Jun Lintian's lips.

Logically speaking, even if the eldest prince had just been released from confinement, it would be impossible for him to go out on the streets today.

However, Jun Lintian thought of something else.

In the original novel, there should be a lantern festival in Xuanwu City recently.

This lantern festival was purely organized by the government.

However, since a loyal and brave marquis died two days ago and the eldest prince was put in solitary confinement, in order to stabilize the people's hearts, this lantern festival should be held in advance.

What Jun Lintian remembered more clearly was that at this lantern party, the original eldest prince would give the Xuanhun Jade Hairpin to Li Yunxin.

At the same time, I will develop further relationship with Li Yunxin.

When he thought of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up even wider.

Now the eldest prince does not have the Xuanhun Jade Hairpin in his hand, and Jun Lintian has also come here, so it is naturally impossible for the eldest prince to have any chance to develop a relationship with Li Yunxin.

Although it is still afternoon, the entire Xuanwu City is already decorated with lights and red lanterns are hung on both sides of the street.

It looks like a princess is getting married.

In fact, Emperor Wu also wanted to use this method to stabilize the people. The Lantern Festival is still being held in Xuanwu City, which means that the situation at the border must be not bad.

Everyone will be happy for a while, and will surely forget what happened to Marquis Zhongyong.

Right now, the lighting show hasn't started yet.

Jun Lintian was drinking tea alone in the teahouse, his eyes fixed on the eldest prince who was strolling outside.

Something happened to Zhou Lie before, and Qi Yushan and Huang Yi died as a result.

Although there are many second-generation rich people who want to cling to the eldest prince, they also understand that it is not appropriate to get too close to the eldest prince in this turbulent time.

Especially those descendants of the Zhou family's side branches, now they avoid the eldest prince as if he were the plague.

They don't want to become the next Zhou Lie.

Instead, the Thirteenth Prince Xuan Jing happened to meet Xuan Fei here and went over to say hello. (End of this chapter)
