Chapter 283 North Prince, What Do You Mean?_2

Lin Xiuming thought to himself that even the military generals had chosen sides; it was likely that the Capital city would fall into internal strife.

Military generals generally refrained from taking sides easily. If they expressed a political stance, it indicated that the Princes had obtained military power. If every Prince controlled military forces, a bloody power struggle for the throne would be inevitable in the end.

Just at that moment, an official from the faction of the eldest Prince approached Lin Xiuming, "Prince Qin invites you to a banquet at the Spring Moon Restaurant at noon today and hopes that General Lin will attend."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuming smiled. Nowadays, drawing people over had become brazen. In the past, Princes would never dare to invite a general with troops under his command to a banquet, as it would make people suspect they harbored thoughts of rebellion.
