Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

Jiang Ming lay there like a little daughter-in-law, feeling mixed in her heart.

He understood Yuanyang, and Yuanyang definitely didn't like others staring at her secretly, but he really couldn't rest assured.

"...Miss Yuanyang brought a lot of people with her this time, so I just watched from a distance. She doesn't necessarily need people..."

"I see."

Lin Ruhai couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing, and looked at Jiang Ming with an even more kind look.

When I turned around and saw the book on Jiang Ming's bedside, I felt even more satisfied.

Lin Ruhai also thought a lot about this assassination. Although Daiyu has his mother Jia taking care of him, he can go about his work with peace of mind. But at the moment of danger, he still couldn't let go.

If Jiang Ming hadn't saved him, he would have died. Perhaps he might have concealed his injuries so as not to scare his daughter.

But now seeing Jiang Ming worrying about Yuanyang, he suddenly felt that if he was dead, no matter how much he worried, it would be useless.

What if Jiang Ming died in this incident? Didn't all his deep feelings turn into nothing?

"I said thank you, but you didn't accept it, and I really like you kid!"

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard, looking a little embarrassed.

"I taught several students when I was young, and my knowledge is not too bad. If you don't give up, I, if you don't understand anything, just come and ask me. We will get along as master and disciple."

When Jiang Ming heard what he said, he felt like pie in the sky. Mr. Lin is not bad at all? He is the top pick!

It only takes three years for Tanhualang to be born, but Mr. Lin is still the emperor's confidant, how can he be worse?

"Students, thank you to the teacher! The teacher does not despise the students for being stupid and is willing to teach. It is a blessing for the students!"

Jiang Ming immediately stood up and saluted. Lin Ruhai saw that he was really smart and quickly held him down.

"Don't be anxious for a while, don't be anxious at this moment. I only have one daughter on my knees, and she is not around now. I just have some free time."

Lin Ruhai smiled and sighed with relief.

He lacks nothing but his own people with conscience.

Although Yuanyang is good, she is also a woman. Besides, she has been adopted as a daughter by Mrs. Wang. Lin Ruhai wanted her daughter to get more help, so she had to plan more.

He recognized Jiang Ming as a student, and now his identity matched him exactly!

And when he saw Jiang Ming reading, he did look a bit like it. It just so happened that the emperor also wanted him to recommend talents. This money would not go to outsiders. He also wanted to develop some power of his own!

In the past, he prided himself on being an upright official and an independent minister, and did not want to engage in partisanship. Now that I have suffered a loss, I realize that in the officialdom, it is difficult to move forward without factions.

His wife's brother, Jia Zheng, and others belonged to the Wuxun family. Although they were extremely noble, they could not help but be exalted.

But if you work for the emperor, if you are too high, you will not be gregarious, and you will not be able to do practical things!

Gaopeng and Jia Yucun dared to touch him, wasn't it because the sky was high and the emperor was far away, and the imperial power would be limited when it spread to the south?

Jiang Ming was from a grassroots background, and although he was also a child of an aristocratic family, he was much better than him in dealing with situations like Gao Peng.

Doesn't he know what Yuanyang did? It's just that his status is restricted and he can't do anything illegal.

After all, there were too many people looking at him.

"You should have a good rest! I have to go to Zhen's Mansion. When I come back, we will discuss academic matters."

Lin Ruhai felt relieved when she saw that Jiang Ming was fine. Nowadays, matters in Jiangnan still have to go through Zhen Yingjia's hands. He is the president of Jinling Tirenyuan and can manage the Jinling small court on behalf of the emperor.

Jia Yu Village is in Yingtian Mansion, which happens to be under his jurisdiction.

It was not convenient for him to see Zhen Yingjia in the past, but it will be better in the future. It's best to move the errands in Yangzhou here and completely sort out Jiangnan's finances!

Lin Ruhai here is ambitious and wants to completely conquer the south of the Yangtze River. The people who were oppressed by bandits and bullies could no longer bear it.

In recent years, major earthquakes and disasters have occurred frequently.

Bandits robbed people of their food, and the people who lost their food had to borrow money to survive. But the weather was not good, and even if he became a tenant farmer, he would not be able to have enough to eat.

Originally, I could still eat some good salt due to the proliferation of private salt, but when Lin's salt class arrived, I couldn't even afford salt.

Some time ago, several big salt dealers found someone and wanted to give someone named Lin some suffering. That person was lucky and was saved!

Those big salt sellers were afraid and ran away, but the official salt couldn't afford it!

Some people have died of swelling due to lack of salt. Everyone said that since there was no way to survive, it was better to cause a scene.

Soon, under the guidance of thoughtful people, the victims smashed the salt class master's yamen. Pian Lin's salt class was not around, so he asked him to hide away again.

Everyone felt unsure when they saw that they had not achieved their goal. Some people say that he is the emperor's favorite, and his relatives are from the Duke's family. Their relatives were considered bullies, even if they beat people to death in the street and raped ordinary women.

Who can survive against such a family?

Everyone felt that they had been cheated and ran for their lives in a hurry, and soon became beggars. Everyone was tired and hungry, and suddenly someone said:

"We are already thieves anyway, why not grab a full meal instead of starving to death!"

Everyone's eyes turned green from hunger, and they only heard the words "eat a full meal", so who cares about whether they are guilty or not?

After robbing a few small villages, more and more people gathered. Someone shouted again, "There is no law that does not punish everyone. As long as everyone works together, what can't be snatched?"

Everyone followed the action in a daze, and the riot grew from a dozen people to hundreds. Being led away from Yangzhou to the outskirts of Jinling City in a daze. It was only when he was chased and chopped down by an officer that he realized that he was in trouble.

Several villagers whose ancestral roots were in Yangzhou were unfamiliar with Jinling. They managed to escape the authorities' pursuit, but they didn't know where to go.

I can’t go back to my hometown, but I won’t have anything to eat if I stay in Jinling!

A few people rested at the foot of the mountain and suddenly saw a caravan passing by in the distance. Just as they were hiding, they saw the caravan being ambushed.

"Tai! I drove this road and planted this tree! I want to pass by this way and leave money to buy the road!"

The one-eyed man in the middle of the crowd was very majestic, wielding a big sword and wielding it like a tiger.

When those stinking merchants saw the bandits blocking their way, they were all scared to death. After a while, he knelt on the ground and called his grandfather to deliver all the goods.

Those people looked at it with greedy eyes, and saw that the one-eyed dragon boss didn't let anyone go at all. He killed those who could be killed, robbed those who could be robbed, and in the blink of an eye he was heading up the mountain again.

"Let's go too!"

Seeing the one-eyed dragon bandit's victory, these villagers couldn't wait any longer. They fell far behind the bandits and were quickly discovered.

The bandit boss wanted to kill them and scared them half to death. Suddenly a man who looked like a military advisor jumped out.

"Hey! Aren't you Brother Chen from Yangzhou? Why are you here in Jinling?"

Brother Chen didn't know him at all, so he thought he was an acquaintance when he called his name. In a few words, he told me all about his family fortune, and said that he had endured a lot of hardships, and now he only wanted to live a good life.

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

The "strategist" smiled and said: "Since the brothers are optimistic about us, why don't you dare to accept us? I will be your guarantee for the brothers, and you are welcome to join us!"

Brother Chen and others survived, and felt that they had finally found their companions. Not caring about the shock just now, he drank the wine and followed suit.

They were surrounded by people and entered the "big camp", only to find that there were many companions in the team who were making trouble together. This made them feel more at ease.

Where they didn't see it, the military advisor and the one-eyed dragon boss smiled at each other and winked. Looking at the team that has grown again, I feel happy.
