If he had Lin Yi’s full support and his connections, he would have a chance of getting four out of seven votes!
This matter was feasible!
Li Zhu Long’s heart calmed down. He immediately expressed his stance.” Thank you, Manager Lin, for giving me this opportunity. Regardless of whether I succeed or not, my Fengtian Manor’s Li family will be indebted to you. In the future, we will definitely be Manager Lin’s most loyal ally and staunchest supporter!”
What an old fox.
It wasn’t just Lin Yi, even Cheng Shuang ‘er could tell.
Compared to competing for the position of the tutor, the other party was more interested in using this opportunity to bind themselves to Lin Yi and officially join Lin Yi’s camp as an ally.
As for whether he could ascend to the position of Grand Tutor, it would be best if he could succeed. Even if he could not, his Li family would not suffer much loss.
As long as he could get closer to Lin Yi, and even get closer to Prince Zhao’s mansion, it would be a win-win situation for him.
“The most important thing is loyalty to Tian Zi.” Lin Yi reminded.
“Yes, yes. My Li family is infinitely loyal to Your Majesty.”Li Zhu Long agreed, but he was slightly puzzled in his heart.
Loyalty to the emperor was the political right of the inner court. Even the King of Qin had called it that, but it was only verbally.
This was a private negotiation between him and Lin Yi, and no one could hear him behind closed doors. Why was he shouting this slogan?
Was Lin Yi really the emperor’s diehard fan?
No matter how Li Zhulong looked at it, it didn’t seem like it.
Lin Yi was a shrewd person, and it was one thing to use the emperor’s power to strengthen himself, but it was impossible for him to die with the emperor.
In the long run, there was no future for him following the emperor. He didn’t believe that Lin Yi couldn’t see through this.
But he immediately understood why Lin Yi said that.
“If you want to be the tutor, you have to get the emperor’s approval first. Otherwise, you won’t be able to succeed even if you pass the seven kings ‘recommendation.” Lin Yi shook his teacup lightly.
Here comes the meat show.
“Then how can I make the emperor nod his head?” Li Zhulong’s heart skipped a beat.
“Wu Hou has been transferred to the ninth floor of the prison. Tian Zi is very concerned about his situation and needs someone who knows him well to check out the situation. Your son Li Tianchong is a good candidate.”
“Impossible!”
Li Zhu Long was so shocked that he suddenly stood up. The harmonious atmosphere just now suddenly became hostile.
It was impossible for Li Zhu Long to not know what kind of place the ninth level of the Heaven Prison was. It was no exaggeration to say that anyone who entered would be equivalent to giving up half of their life.
At the very least, it was not up to him to decide when he would take away the remaining half of his life. It was up to the heavens.
Li Tianchong was his only son. Even though he had publicly allied with Li Jianlong, his importance in his eyes had never wavered.
Cheng Shuang ‘er wanted to say something but hesitated. She wanted to help ease the atmosphere.
But seeing Lin Yi drinking his tea calmly without any emotions, she understood what Lin Yi meant.
As expected, Li Zhulong calmed down after seeing Lin Yi’s calm reaction.
“Manager Lin, you’ve given me a big problem.”
Li Zhu Long smiled bitterly.
He had already realized that today’s matter was not a multiple-choice question from the beginning, but a compulsory question.
Since Lin Yi had chosen him, he had to agree even if he didn’t want to. Otherwise, his son Li Tianchong wouldn’t be the only one thrown into the prison.
Don’t forget, the investigation of his Fengtian Prefecture Li family had not ended yet.
With Li Jianlong’s matter, Lin Yi didn’t even need to make up anything to destroy House Li. Everything was ready.
After all, with such a big case like Li Jianlong, who would believe that the Li family of Fengtian Prefecture would jump out and say that they were clean?
Lin Yi said slowly,” There’s no need to resist this too much, Master Li. As a father, you know better than us what’s wrong with Li Tianchong. If you don’t train him well, he’ll cause even more trouble in the future. It’s hard to say if House Li can survive that.”
These words were a threat, but Li Zhu Long could not refute them.
That was because his son, Li Tianchong, was indeed like that.
Li Tianchong wasn’t the traditional silkpants. On the contrary, he was considered to be very motivated among the second generation.
However, for a super family like the Li family of Fengtian Prefecture, they were never afraid of having a silkpants in their family.
With his family’s foundation, no matter how many silkpants he had, it was impossible for him to squander such a strong family background for hundreds or thousands of years.
What they were most afraid of was precisely this kind of very motivated disciple.
Just like this time, offending Lin Yi would bring disaster to the entire family!
Although Li Tianchong had suffered a huge loss in the past few days and became a lot more honest, he still had some complaints about Lin Yi. The first thing he said was to get House Li out of Lin Yi’s clutches, which made Li Zhulong’s heart jump.
To put it bluntly, this guy had suffered under Lin Yi, but he hadn’t learned his lesson.
In the long run, it was only a matter of time before he got into trouble again.
“I value our friendship a lot, but I’m not a pushover,” Lin Yi said slowly.
Li Zhu Long was drenched in cold sweat.” Manager Lin, please rest assured. I will discipline my son well. I will never let him cause trouble again.”
“The beloved son of his parents has far-reaching plans.”
“Do you really think you can control him forever?” Lin Yi asked.
Li Zhu Long was speechless.
He naturally understood these principles, but once they were implemented, it was inevitable that things would go awry.
“This is a good opportunity,” Lin Yi said sincerely.”Let him go and train for real. When he comes back, he might be different.”
” That’s the ninth level of the imperial prison,” Li Zhu Long said with a helpless smile.” Once you enter, can you come back?”
Lin Yi said seriously,” This is related to Marquis Wu. The emperor is watching, so I’ll do it myself. If House Li thinks I can’t even guarantee this, then I have nothing to say.”
“No, no, I have 10,000 faith in Manager Lin’s ability.”
Li Zhu Long hurriedly said.
What a joke. The other party could even kill Xiao Mang just like that. What kind of method was that? Even now, the entire upper circle of the Inner Court was still in shock.
He was really impressed with Lin Yi’s methods.
In the end, Li Zhu Long finally made up his mind.” Fine. Since Tian Chong is a disciple of the Li family, it is only right and proper for him to go through fire and water for the family. I will go and instruct him now.”
