Walls Have Ears

As soon as he said this, the young emperor was immediately stunned. What was that?

What nonsense was this fellow spouting?

Didn't he hear what she said just now?

Didn't she tell him clearly that the people she sent previously were crippled by them?

While the young emperor was feeling puzzled, Lin Yi spoke again.

"Your Majesty, can we secretly contact Fan Niu?"

The young emperor frowned slightly, but seeing how confident Lin Yi was, she couldn't bear to disappoint him.

However, with such a thing, she had to consider other people's emotions, so she said.

"I've already contacted him. I asked someone to send a message to him, indicating that I wanted to rope him in. However, he didn't give me an answer."

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before he immediately complained in his head.

"Gosh, no wonder everyone says pretty girls are dumb. How could she send a messenger? Of course, Fan Niu wouldn't reply.

"How can she tell who's who? They could be a spy sent by her two uncles.

"If it were me, I wouldn't believe a person even if they had the emperor's personal belongings in the current situation.

"After all, this emperor doesn't even have any freedom."

Lin Yi's words instantly brought the young emperor back to her senses.

Just as Little Lin had said, she had thought too simply about this matter.

It seemed that Fan Niu didn't reply to her because of this consideration.

For a moment, she looked at Lin Yi with even more admiration.

However, she was the emperor after all. In addition, this guy was already presumptuous enough. Even if she knew that what he said was true, she couldn't let him be too pleased with himself.

While Lin Yi was thinking, he heard the young emperor speak casually again.

"I sent someone to pass the message on purpose. I want to see what Fan Niu's current situation is like."

"And this result was just as I had expected. Because he was afraid that the person I sent was from one of my two uncles, he didn't even dare to show any reaction.

"Because of that, I know Fan Niu is someone we can rope in. He's also the only person we can rope in among the Right Martial Guards."

Lin Yi, who was about to speak, was obviously stunned. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

At the same time, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly in his head.

"Looks like I was too careless. This girl definitely has some skills. How can she not see through such a simple matter? She must have done it on purpose.

"I really can't take it too seriously. With my intelligence, if I didn't have the foresight that comes from thousands of years later, I'm afraid I wouldn't be as smart as this girl! "

No matter how thick-skinned the young emperor was, she couldn't help but blush when she heard Lin Yi's thoughts.

However, for the sake of her dignity, she would admit that she didn't come up with the idea herself.

"Well, according to Your Majesty, among the middle and upper echelons of the Right Martial Guard, Fan Niu is our only hope. Then let's make him our breakthrough point!"

After saying this, Lin Yi smiled mysteriously and continued while the young emperor looked confused.

"Your Majesty can find an opportunity to send a message to Fan Niu and tell him that we can promote him to become the general of the Right Martial Guards. Moreover, we don't need him to cooperate with us. He just needs to wait for the imperial edict to take office. As for the other obstacles, he doesn't need to do anything. You'll settle all the obstacles for him."

As soon as he said this, the young emperor was speechless.

She looked at Lin Yi as if she was looking at a fool.

"What's he talking about?

"If I can take down the Right Martial Guards' general, will I still have to worry about fighting for control of the Imperial City's guards?

"Although I'm the emperor, if I want to issue an imperial edict to take down the Right Martial Guardis' general, I'll need a sufficient reason.

"If I do it recklessly, it'll only cause the civil and military officials in the court to resist me.

"Even if I really risk everything to get rid of the current one, the next person to take office will definitely be Lord Yong'an's man.

"After all, it won't take long for an accident to happen to the person I've chosen."

Seeing the young emperor's expression as if she was looking at a fool, Lin Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Gosh, why won't you believe me? If I can't handle a mere Right Martial Guards' general, I'll have gained thousands of years of experience compared to you for nothing."

He then said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I guarantee that we can make the Right Martial Guards our people as quickly as possible."

Seeing how confident Lin Yi was, the young emperor frowned and started thinking.

However, she had to admit that in the past two days since she met this guy, everything he did was very reliable.

This made the young emperor believe Lin Yi's ridiculous words.

"Alright, I'll believe you this once. However, you still have to tell me almost everything first. I'll make a decision after listening."

Lin Yi chuckled at this. Then, he walked up to the young emperor and leaned over to whisper in her ear.

This action immediately gave the young emperor a fright.

Although she was hugged by this fake eunuch for the entire night last night, that was without her knowledge.

However, that wasn't the case now. She was in a clear-headed state.

What was this fellow trying to do?

Had she indulged him too much?

Did that make him so bold?

"This can't go on. If others see this, my big plan will be ruined!

Thinking of this, the young emperor immediately became serious, and she was about to scold Lin Yi.

But at this moment, the young emperor suddenly felt a wave of heat by her ear. Then, a tingling sensation began to spread from her ears to her entire body.

For a moment, she forgot what she was about to say.

Moreover, her entire mind felt a little blank.

"Your Majesty, the walls have ears. Once this matter is leaked, I'm afraid all our efforts will be in vain."

As Lin Yi spoke, the young emperor subconsciously nodded as if she agreed with Lin Yi, although no one knew if she heard anything.

However, she had forgotten that this was the inner palace. The guards here were all her people. Furthermore, "they" were also guarding this imperial study.

It was obviously not an easy task to come in and eavesdrop.

Seeing the young emperor nod, Lin Yi couldn't help but stare at her pink earlobe and swallow.
