Da Cang night watchman

Chapter 147
This case is very special, because in this major case, except for the prince who was put to death, the rest of the participants were all pardoned.It is precisely because of this major case that the emperor of the dynasty gained a reputation of benevolence and righteousness, which also allowed him to have a smooth transition in the later political situation.

And what does this case have to do with the Qu family?
Qu Wendong is the prince's teacher, and naturally he is also a follower of the prince. After the prince's conspiracy was exposed, he was granted an amnesty and went to Jiangdong to persuade the king of Huainan to retreat. He is also one of the most influential scholars.

Lin Sudao: "At that time, under pressure, I pardoned all the ministers, and settled the score after the autumn after I gained a firm foothold?"

"In order to show virtuousness and benevolence, the Son of Heaven will never admit that Qiu Hou settles accounts, but some things are still a bit weird..."

what things?

A plague broke out in the Huainan Palace the year before last. From top to bottom, more than a thousand people in the palace died.

From that day on, the ministers who were on the side of the crown prince or Huainan King had accidents one after another. The Northwest party family was involved in the spy case of the enemy country, and all their families were killed. Minister, this is the case. In just three years, accidents happened one after another. All the crimes listed have nothing to do with Jiangdong's old case, but the end points are all wiped out...

How can there be such a coincidence?

The aristocratic families of tens of hundreds of years have not had any accidents for hundreds of years, and suddenly accidents happened within three years, and once an accident happened, it was a big event, and the whole family was wiped out.

The Qu family followed the prince that day, could it be that they had already foreseen that the liquidation against themselves was coming?That's why they pulled the Lin family into the same boat?How much to increase resistance?

If it is this explanation, at least Lin Su is convinced.

What the Qu family offended was the royal family, and there was no allied army in the whole world, and only the Lin family, a family that knew nothing about the inside story and was targeted by high-ranking officials in the court, could be tied up with him.As for whether the Lin family is a qualified ally, the Qu family can't care too much...

Lin Su's back felt cold: "Sister Chen, did my father stand in line back then?"

Sister Chen shook her head: "Master Hou almost joined the King of Huainan back then. Later, a mysterious person in the court summoned him, so he didn't send troops and remained neutral. But I don't know who that person is."

The water in the capital is deep, and the water in the court is even deeper!
Lin Su narrowed his eyes: "The former Majesty had three sons, the crown prince, the king of Huainan, and the king of Chen. The first two are all dead, and only one is left, the king of Chen. What kind of person is the king of Chen?"

Sister Chen smiled: "Don't you know what kind of person Chen Wang is? There is a line in the song "Will Enter the Wine" that day, 'When Chen Wang used to have a feast of banquets, he fought wine for a thousand times and had a lot of fun', Isn't it a true portrayal of King Chen?"

Lin Su was stunned.

When he was writing about the wine that day, he really drank too much, so he casually named King Chen, but he didn't expect that there really was a King Chen in this world, and this King Chen happened to be exactly the same as what he described.

Chen Wang is a sensual man with no big ambitions. He likes to drink, like women, likes to make friends, and he likes to listen to operas. His family has an opera troupe every day, and even makes those actors take off their clothes to perform for him. He is a dude. The representative of the younger generation was severely criticized by various scholars in the capital for being indecent.

To be honest, King Chen himself was very happy when Lin Su wrote such a poem for King Chen, but for Lin Su, it was a negative item. Lu Daru is used as an anti-textbook, if you force yourself to go up, how much will the price drop?
After Sister Chen made a joke, she turned to the topic, son, according to the situation we have so far, it is very likely that the Qu family is in crisis, and the Qu Lin marriage seems to have given the Lin family a backing. On the contrary, have we been tricked by old man Qu?

Lin Su smiled slightly, even if it was calculated, it was not a bad thing.

The conflict between the Lin family and high-ranking officials in the court is irreconcilable. It is impossible for the emperor to like the Lin family. Sooner or later, he will attack the Lin family. If this is the case, it is a good thing to draw an allied army, regardless of whether it has ulterior motives or not. !
"If you go to high school in the imperial examination, you will plunge headlong into this bottomless officialdom. I suddenly don't want you to pass the imperial examination..." Sister Chen was frightened. The officialdom was too scary. There are irreconcilable contradictions, as well as the royal family, and he will get rid of them quickly. For the Lin family, this kind of officialdom is simply a Shura dojo.

Lin Su hugged her gently: "Don't worry, I don't intend to step into the officialdom. To me, the scientific examination is just a ladder. If you win the Jinshi and pick up the literary heart, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and you have infinite possibilities!"

There was a cry from Lvyi outside, saying that the second brother was coming.

The second elder brother and Qu Xiu both came over, bringing four maids with them. Qu Xiu told Lin Su that these four maids followed her in the past. Talk to them if you need to.

Several women went to each room, Lin Jialiang sat with the third brother in the gazebo, and said something: Third brother, I agreed that day that if I go to Beijing, I need to visit Zhang Haoran, or I will go to West Hutong tomorrow ?

Zhang Haoran really needed to visit. At the beginning, when the Lin family was in such a desperate situation, only Zhang Haoran came to visit the Lin family. During the exam, Zhang Haoran sent a message in advance to tell them that they needed to take a speech test. Objectively speaking, this news was very important!If he hadn't sent a message in advance, under Qin Fangweng's blockade, the brothers of the Lin family would have no idea that the science test would take the test words, and when they entered the test room, they would be caught off guard.

Of course, Lin Su himself is fine.

But Lin Jialiang must have a problem.

Without those few days of "hugging Buddha's feet temporarily", Lin Jialiang would definitely fall into trouble with words.

Therefore, it is not too much to say that Zhang Haoran saved Lin Jialiang's scientific research path.

Since we are in Beijing, we naturally have to visit.

Lin Su smiled slightly: "Second brother, it's okay for us to visit him tomorrow, but he doesn't live in West Hutong, he lives in Lvliu Villa in the suburbs of Beijing."

Lin Jialiang was taken aback: "He is really the Zhang family from Green Willow Villa? How do you know?"

"I sent some people to Beijing in advance to get a better understanding of the situation in the capital. Zhang Haoran is the grandson of Zhang Juzheng, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and the Zhang family of Green Willow Villa."

Lin Jialiang pondered for a moment, then skipped it.

Following him, he talked with Lin Su about other things, for example, the matter of moving into the Qu family was arranged by the head of the Qu family himself, so you don't have to care about other people's opinions...

Judging from his tone and demeanor, Lin Jialiang obviously already knew that certain members of the Qu family were not too fond of the Lin family brothers, but this is the daughter-in-law's natal family, so he could never argue with those people. Fortunately, this Yixian The courtyard was personally approved by the Patriarch of the Qu family, and no one dared to come here to act wildly.

Lin Su happened to be happy and at ease.

The next day, Lin Su and Lin Jialiang rode two horses and left Qu Mansion for the outskirts of the capital.

No one follows them, but everyone knows that there is no need to worry about them, because there is no guardian on the surface, but there are still people who guard secretly, and the guardian is An Ye.

There is a dark night, Lin Su breaks into the rivers and lakes at ease, so who cares if there are people who don't have eyes?
The wind is sunny, the weather is fine, walking on the wind, and the wild flowers are blooming.

The capital can become the capital of the Great Cang, so it is naturally not an easy place to go. The terrain is empty and the pavilions are endless. Every inch and every inch has the history of the ancient capital. They walked out of the city gate and set foot on the official road out of the city. On both sides, there are few residential houses, but there are countless private houses of dignitaries.

The aesthetics of people in this era is quite high, the courtyards are different, the design is ingenious, within the red walls and green tiles, there are occasional women who come and go lightly, everything is so beautiful.

But ten miles out of the city, it was a different scene. Many thatched huts were built beside the ancient river, and some refugees in poor clothes came in and out, and some people came to the side of the road, begging with their hands, and their begging was much better than others. The place is more civilized. In other places, beggars follow the rich and pester them endlessly, while they lie on the ground with their hands up, waiting quietly...

Feeling compassionate, Lin Jialiang got off his horse and took out a bag of broken silver. Dozens of beggars along the way gave a little to each of them. The refugees were all stunned. When did they beg for so much?Isn't it all a copper plate?But the nobles in front of them each gave one to two taels of silver, equivalent to hundreds of copper coins.

This is meeting a nobleman.

The beggars bowed down at the same time.

Lin Su got off his horse: "Where do you all come from?"

The beggars below scrambled to open their mouths, so that the two sons could learn that we are from Xima Town in the north, and there are some people from Mingshan Town over there...

From the four northern towns?
At the beginning, Zhang Wenyuan presided over the Luocheng League, and with a swipe of a pen, he ceded the four towns. If the tens of millions of people in the four towns did not want to be enslaved by Dayu, they could only move south. From the four towns to the capital, they traveled two thousand miles. How many people died on the way, even if they reached the capital smoothly, they could only beg in the capital.

Refugees are not allowed to enter the city, so most of them are around the capital, and there are as many as one million refugees around the capital.

"Third brother, I'm afraid I've caused trouble for my brother. There's a large group over there again. Let's go quickly." Lin Jialiang was a little nervous.

He gave alms to refugees only out of goodwill, ignoring a problem, that is: there are so many refugees, it is impossible to solve all the problems, once you start giving, more people will come.

"Okay!" The Lin brothers got on their horses and prepared to open the way.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly came up on the official road in front, and the person in the front was holding a big black flag with a golden wolf embroidered on it. The flag was fierce, and the mounts under them also showed When it came out, it was not a horse, but a giant silver wolf, the size of a cow, galloping along the official road with its teeth and claws.

"Dasumi welcomes the relatives mission, make way quickly!" Someone in the refugee team shouted.

The refugees gave way one after another, but some were too late. With a wave of the giant wolf's claws, dozens of refugees flew several feet away.

A woman in the middle of the line was holding a child in her arms, and was holding another hand. She let go of her hand when avoiding, and the child in her hand fell headlong in the middle of the official road.

The team of giant wolves had already swept in like a tide, and it was about to drown the child.

The woman turned pale with fright, and let out a miserable cry: No!

With a whoosh, Lin Su disappeared in place. The next moment, he passed through the group of refugees who had no time to evacuate, and appeared in front of the child. He rolled over, hugged the child to avoid the sharp claws of the giant wolf, and retreated three feet abruptly, shouting loudly: "stop!"

The team of giant wolves suddenly changed from extremely dynamic to extremely quiet. The giant wolf at the front stopped the moment it hit Lin Su. It also rushed to Lin Su's face.

Lin Su's face was as gloomy as water.

He knew what this big flag meant, it was the Osumi military flag!

The 200 years of the Lin family's generals included a tragic confrontation with Osumi. During that period, many of the Lin family's retainers died under this military flag.

Now at the gate of the capital, the Dasumi military flag unexpectedly appeared!
Among the missions, there was a golden wolf. On the back of the golden wolf was a driver with a sunshade. The curtain of the driver was lifted, revealing two faces. A man with the appearance of a big official said sharply: "Who dares to charge into this place?" VIP delegation?"

Lin Su was furious: "Guest? Have you ever seen a VIP who broke into the master's house and acted recklessly?"

"Bold, this is a foreign mission, get out of the way immediately, otherwise, I will punish you for destroying the friendship between the two countries!"

Lin Su: "Apologize, and then compensate the refugees for medical expenses..."

The official's face was full of blackness: "What a dare, this official will not pursue the crime of the refugees blocking the way..."

Lin Su interrupted him coldly: "Please answer my question directly...do you want to pay or not?"

"Hahahaha, what an ignorant child..."

Lin Su interrupted again: "No compensation, right? Very good!"

Hands together, flying knife out!
With a thud, the eyes of the leader holding the military flag high widened suddenly, full of disbelief, and his head fell from the back of the giant wolf, and the black flag also fell down.

The whole audience was silent, including Lin Jialiang, no one could have imagined that Lin Su would directly kill someone!
The missions to welcome the relatives are foreign guests, and any collision is a breach of diplomatic relations between the two countries. This crime is too serious, but what did Lin Su do? It was not just collision?Kill the foreign guests directly!
Lin Jialiang's heart sank instantly. Although he was also angry, he absolutely couldn't accept the third brother's impulsiveness. It's over!It's definitely over now!Countless high-ranking officials in the court are looking for loopholes in you to ruin your imperial examination. You may not be able to escape by keeping quiet and not causing trouble. Now you have killed foreign guests... The third brother's imperial examination path is over.

More than a hundred giant wolves bowed their heads at the same time, and the audience was as if solidified with pig iron. It was a terribly suffocating feeling...

Three miles away, on the highest floor of Fengqi Villa, Her Royal Highness's expression changed instantly: "Youying, what's going on?"

A shadow appeared from behind her: "There was a scholar who shot and killed the people who welcomed the mission..."

"Who is this?"

I don't know!

While driving, the official took a long breath: "...you're so daring, let me take it down!"

"Yes!" The seven black-clothed guards appeared out of nowhere, turned around and faced Lin Su.

Lin Su raised his hand abruptly: "My lord, you know that there are thirteen rules in the Da Cang Iron Rule. Anyone who erects a foreign military flag within the border will be punished by everyone! It will be a success!"
