Encounter with the Four Great Talents

Xu Zhenqing ate the food with her head down, listening to Tang Shen and Lin Jin chatting politely next to her, she was very surprised that she could be so calm.

For three or four years, he has been entangled with this man for three or four years.I used to fall in love with him, and I used to wish I could kill him, but now everything has become peaceful.Zhu Yunming said that this is fate and calamity, and it is an ordeal that he has to experience in this life.Tang Shen, on the other hand, snorted coldly, saying that this is your own fault due to greed.

That's right, it was my own fault at first, and if I see it clearly, I can't blame others.

Those nightmarish days are over, he can already face the past calmly, and end it peacefully, this is also the purpose of his coming today.

The sky had gradually darkened, and the boat had also approached the Jiuqu Bridge and stopped at a good position, where one could clearly see the performance in the Shuiyue Pavilion.

Looking at the musicians on the sedan chair who were getting ready, Tang Shen smiled and said, "I'm not familiar with the capital city, but I've heard that it's elegant and interesting. Mr. Lin must be a regular visitor here, right?"

Lin Jin smiled: "Mr. Tang is young and weak, and he has been recovering from his illness since he came to the capital. I think he has no chance to come here to see it. Today is a rare opportunity so don't miss it. I used to come here often, but this time it is less , I don’t know if there are any new programs recently.”

Tang Shen quickly took out his fan and shook it, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "It's really hard for Mr. Lin to take care of the daily affairs, but don't tire yourself out."

Lin Jin's face froze, and the anger in his heart began to rise, but he immediately suppressed it and said, "It is the Lin family's blessing to be reused by today's government. My Lin family also has a century-old foundation in the capital, and has been loyal to the court for generations. However, there have been many rumors recently. The rumors are directed at my Lin family, and the slander continues, with ulterior motives, which makes people feel chilling."

Tang Shen closed his fan with a look of surprise, full of righteous indignation: "There is such a thing? Is there any justice in this world? No wonder Mr. Lin's complexion is not as good as before. He must have heard a lot after thinking about it? Mr. Lin, I am not talented, but I know Since the body is upright and not afraid of shadows, Mr. Lin doesn’t need to pay attention to those gossips, there must be someone maliciously slandering the Lin family because of his power. Today he is wise and wise, and he will definitely give justice to Mr. Lin’s family.”

Hua Dingwu couldn't help but glanced at Tang Shen, his eyes were quite surprised and funny, this person has a good acting style.

Lin Jin was not bad in terms of acting, he put down his wine glass and sighed: "Our Lin family naturally believes in the emperor, but some of the courtiers around the emperor are talking nonsense to the emperor regardless of right and wrong, and they continue to slander, which is quite a headache."

Tang Shen immediately said: "Lord Lin, evil is overwhelming, don't give in just because these villains are in the way! By the way, Master Lin, do you know the names of those villains? Tell me, Master Hua is here, and I will be able to find out The whole truth came to light. Master Hua is the commander of Jin Yiwei, and it is his duty to supervise all the officials! After finding out, report to the Holy Majesty, so that the Holy Majesty can understand who is a loyal minister and who is a treacherous minister!"

Lin Jin almost choked, and Hua Dingwu also smiled: "Yes, Mr. Lin, you are welcome. Such a black sheep, a court moth, naturally has to be found out to make the court clear."

Tang Shen secretly cast a wink at Hua Dingwu, dear, you said it so well, come on, suffocate him.

Hua Dingwu continued to live up to his entrustment: "The emperor is very concerned about recent events, and I am ordered to thoroughly investigate this matter. Based on the current investigation, it is extremely unfavorable to the Lin family. If Master Lin knows something You must tell me the inside story. I dare not say that the Lin family will be innocent immediately, but I can guarantee that no one will easily frame the Lin family."

The old god Lin Jin was there, nodded and said: "I am relieved to have Mr. Hua's words. Now I spit out the name with empty teeth. I believe that the adults will have doubts. Why don't I order someone to send some things to the mansion after I go back?" Come on, adults will know at a glance."

"It's so good." Hua Dingwu naturally knew what he would give, it was nothing more than some evidence of blame and some bribes, or some things that threatened him.The Lin family's affairs are too big, but these matters are not one thing, they are accumulated by many cases.Therefore, if it can be transferred, for the Lin family, big things can be turned into small things, small things can be turned into nothing, and in the end, no bones will be hurt.

Lin Jin smiled softly, with a little conceit and arrogance in his smile, and continued: "My Lin family has also gone through three dynasties, and there have been many virtuous officials and wise men. The sun and the moon can be seen as loyal. I, the Lin family, are too presumptuous."

Before Hua Dingwu could speak, Tang Shen nodded: "Master Lin is right! There is no evidence, and it is impossible to smear all innocence with just one mouth!"

Lin Jin laughed loudly: "What Mr. Tang said is absolutely true!"

Hua Dingwu lowered his head to drink, Xu Zhenqing gnawed his head sullenly, listening to the two laughing and chatting, I just felt that Tang Shen was really an acting genius.

Just as they were talking, the music suddenly rang, and the four of them turned their heads to see that dancers in the Shuiyue Pavilion had already started dancing.

Shuiyue Pavilion is not small, and there are no stone tables and benches in the middle. It is very convenient for singing and dancing when it is empty.There are beautiful lanterns hanging on the five corners. Under the dazzling colored lights and on the broken water, the dancers float like immortals, which is really good.

Tang Shen squinted his eyes and admired it for a while, then said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I was honored to be entertained by friends in Suzhou last year, and I also watched the dancing posture of the famous dancer Qingdie in Suzhou on a painting boat. , it’s so beautiful.”

Lin Jin was a little curious: "Oh? Seriously?"

Tang Shen nodded with a smile and said, "In our Jiangnan, women are so delicate and gentle, dancing gracefully and gracefully. Compared to this..." He raised his chin slightly and pointed to the very hot dancer in the middle of the bridge, "Be reserved. too much."

Xu Zhenqing choked in disappointment and coughed sullenly.Tang Shen raised his eyebrows, moved over and patted him on the back lightly: "Brother Xu, don't just eat the vegetables, you should also drink some soup, come here, have some soup."

Xu Zhenqing took it and gave him a funny look: "So, brother Shen has tasted the benefits?"

Tang Shen snorted and said, "If someone was not in the way, I would not object."

Xu Zhenqing glanced at Hua Dingwu, who had a dark face, and Tang Shen waved his hand: "It's not him."

Xu Zhenqing rolled her eyes, of course I knew it wasn't him.

Tang Shen suddenly looked back at Hua Dingwu, tilted his head and smiled wickedly: "Is Mr. Hua interested?"

Hua Dingwu narrowed his eyes to look at him, and said slowly, "What do you think?"

Tang Shen suddenly felt that it was dangerous, so he shrank his head obediently, and was laughed at by Xu Zhenqing.

Lin Jin said with a smile, "If I have the chance, I'd really like to try it. Speaking of which, Jiangnanjing is beautiful, but I haven't had the chance to see it."

Hua Dingwu said coolly: "Master Lin, why should you be sad, there will be a long time to come, Master Lin may not have a chance."

These words sounded different to Lin Jin's ears. Why did he feel that he was predicting that he would be sent to the south?He glanced at Hua Dingwu, but seeing that Hua Dingwu's gaze had been on Tang Shen, he didn't answer the question.

After eating almost, the performances in the pavilion became more and more exciting.Tang Shen and Xu Zhenqing sat on the side of the boat to watch, while Hua Dingwu and Lin Jin sat closer. They drank and chatted, and seemed friendly.

Seeing another beauty delivered to another ship in a small boat, Tang Shen stroked his chin in wonder, "Three beauties have already been recruited on that ship, right?"

Xu Zhenqing nodded: "That boat is quite big, I guess it's a banquet."

Tang Shen immediately geared up his fists: "Brother Xu, do you think I want to call one too? Could it be that the four of us big men are driving a big boat to see if they don't want money?"

Xu Zhenqing became more and more funny, nodded and said: "Brother Shen is right. As long as you can call me, I have no objection."

Tang Shen only felt that the eyes behind him cut his neck like a knife, but he still looked excited: "That's it!"

But the next ones who came out to perform were all men, so Tang Shen was naturally not interested, he was just watching.When a beautiful woman finally came out, Tang Shen's eyes lit up, but he heard a voice behind him: "It's almost time, it's time to go back."

Wu Dao Wu Jian naturally responded immediately and prepared to set sail. Tang Shen looked at him with his chin amused: "It's still early, what's the hurry?"

Hua Dingwu held his hand on his knee, raised it to his mouth and bit it: "You are still recuperating, don't forget."

Tang Shen smiled lightly, with sparkling eyes, but shook him off: "You smell like alcohol, don't come near me."

Hua Dingwu insisted on leaning on him obediently in his arms until he kissed him faintly.

Lin Jin watched from behind, and said with a bit of yin and yang, "It's really rare for Master Hua to have such tenderness and sweetness."

Xu Zhenqing could hear a trace of frustration from his tone, thinking that he had not gained any real benefit from the conversation with Hua Dingwu just now.After thinking about it, he paused for a moment, realizing that he already knew him so well.Sure enough, the time of three or four years is not something that can be forgotten in a short while.

Hua Dingwu pinched Tang Shen's ear: "Yes, Mr. Lin is very lucky."

Tang Shenyi smirked in his arms, Lin Jin was so angry that he naturally stopped talking.

When the boat stopped, Lin Jin got up first and looked at Xu Zhenqing.Xu Zhenqing still sat still, Lin Jin narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Come back with me."

Xu Zhenqing didn't speak, she seemed to stand up after thinking for a while.Tang Shen was taken aback for a moment, but seeing Xu Zhenqing gave him a comforting look, he had no choice but to suppress it temporarily.Hua Dingwu glanced at Wei Ting, Wei Ting nodded and followed.

Xu Zhenqing followed Lin Jin to the outside of the boat, and stopped when he saw him get off the boat.Lin Jin turned back and stared at him with a sneer: "Why, are you regretting not going to leave with me again?"

Xu Zhenqing chuckled: "Mr. Lin misunderstood, I was not going to go with you from the beginning. It's just that there are some things I don't want to say inside."

Lin Jin stretched out his hand to grab him again, Xu Zhenqing took a step away and continued, "Young Master Lin, we have been entangled for three or four years."

"so?"

"I followed you at the time because I wanted to use your power to become an official."

"Now that my Lin family is not as good as before, you want to find another new owner?"

"No, I made up my mind when you gave me away for fun."

Lin Jin stopped his outstretched hand and looked straight at him.Xu Zhenqing raised her hand and smiled softly, her delicate face, her long fingers covering her lips, and her shy smile were once Lin Jin's favorite expression, but Xu Zhenqing seldom smiled.So, sometimes when I am in a good mood, I will pamper him desperately, just to smile for him.

Xu Zhenqing put down her hands, raised her head and chest and let out a long sigh of relief: "Mr. Lin, I admit that I am humble, and I am willing to do anything for my official career. But I am also a human being, and I have my dignity. By your side, I feel I don’t know that I have the dignity of a human being. On the night I was sent out, when that man pressed on me, I told myself that I can give up my official career, but I can’t give up my dignity.”

Xu Zhenqing tilted her head, looking at Lin Jin who was shocked and dazed. "Mr. Lin, in your eyes, I'm just an object, a plaything. It's nothing special to give it to others to play with twice. But Mr. Lin, I'm not an object. Giving me to others to play with twice is not a big deal. I'm sorry, I can't accept it." Sighing, Xu Zhenqing looked at him with some pity, and said softly: "Mr. Lin, it's been three years. Can you believe that I've been waiting for this day? That's great, I I can leave you."

Tang Shen listened in the cabin, and suddenly snorted: "In the future, some Lin Jin will regret it."

Hua Dingwu took the cloak from Wu Dao and wrapped him up, kissed him and said softly, "He has already regretted it."
