Chapter 114: The Treasury Doesn't Have, They Have!
In fact, if it wasn't to encourage Situ Yaohua who was suffering Lin Qing's attack, Lin Xian wouldn't easily act against Lin Qing. After standing for so many years in the court, how could he not know that it wasn't easy to nibble on Lin Qing's bones that seemed to be made from iron?
Lin Qing's return this time really exceeded everyone's expectations. They couldn't believe that he truly escaped the control of the Xiongnu and returned alive without any incident.
If one wanted to do something to Lin Qing who had returned from the journey, then it would be undoubtedly asking for a disaster.
Not only that, but at this critical and sensitive moment when everyone was caught off guard and the court had been changed greatly because of Situ Yaohua and Situ Wenrui's fight, it was really not the right time for Lin Qing to come back. At least, it was like that for Situ Yaohua.
Could Situ Yaohua and Situ Wenrui remedy so many vacancies of the court so quickly? Some important positions would definitely fall into Lin Qing's hands. The timing of Lin Qing's return was just perfect and didn't lack a second at all.
No matter to whom, this kind of blow from the enemy was hard. It was the same for Situ Yaohua. These days he took a sick leave and stayed in the Eastern Palace. Besides, from truly being angered, presumably, it was also to cover his mentality that was about to lose control.
As Situ Yaohua's uncle and the prime minister, Lin Xian was a bit too anxious. That was why he attacked Lin Qing directly. Lin Xian also felt helpless.
There were so many changes of personnel at court and so many important positions waited to be filled. Only if Lin Qing didn't come back, all of that would be theirs. By then, more than half of the six ministries and the five government offices would be their people. With such a power, they wouldn't have to worry about doing a major event!
However!
Now, the power that was almost theirs seemed to be turning into bubbles. Let alone Situ Yaohua, no one from the Easter Palace's fraction nor Lin Xian, the uncle, could accept it. It was also due to this that he acted so unwisely and muddleheaded.
What worried Lin Xian more was that since Lin Qing was back, would he continue help Situ Wenrui?
Whether Lin Qing would or wouldn't was not something he had to face now. The voice of Wang Zhi seemed to still be echoing in his ears inside the hall.
Soon, after Wang Zhi started, people of the imperial censor also stood out one after another and went along with Wang Zhi's suggestion.
Naturally, Lin Xian's party didn't show their weakness and stood out to support Lin Xian. However, if you look closely at everyone's eyes, there was a flicker of an unknown meaning there.
They were Lin Xian's supporters. However, no supporter would be willing to stay forever under another's shadow.
Soon the people of each prince's fraction also stirred up. The whole court was a complete mess. Everyone and each fraction fought each other awfully. This court meeting ended with the drooping heads of all the officials and emperor Jinghui's gloomy expression.
Lin Qing was very satisfied with the result. He had gained great gains no matter from which aspect this time with his return. The more chaotic the court was, the better it was for him. If it didn't get messy, how could he place his own people? If it didn't get messy, how could he support his power?
Lin Qing got some ideas after he returned from the northwest. For him, Zhao Zimu could bet with her life on the battlefield in the northwest for him. He naturally couldn't watch her fight alone for him.
