The Jade of the Red Chamber

Recently, Lin Zhenyu has been quite free. There are few things in the Ministry of Industry in the harsh winter. The preparations for farming and water conservancy in the spring of next year are almost completed half a month ago. Some things have to wait for the ice to melt in spring.

He misses Shui Yang a little bit. At the beginning, the Supreme Emperor was seriously ill. Today, the two brothers are afraid that they are going to settle their old affairs. Shui Yang has no time to worry about it. After experiencing such embarrassing things as the "princess" of Qianxiang Kingdom, Zhenyu was still at that time. I can't help but look at the man who often turns his mouth up without knowing it!

I don't want the old saint to have survived the winter, and now all the officials in the palace and the capital are in a hurry. But Shui Yang couldn't get away, no matter what happened between the Supreme Emperor and their brothers, as a son, he must abide by the restraint and behave filial piety, and the eyes of all the people in the world are watching.Now the chances for the two to meet are much less, even if Zhenyu is a dead duck with a stubborn mouth, it can be seen from his daily words and deeds that he is indeed missing someone.

The death of the Supreme Emperor is approaching the end of the year, because the old sage was very careful in preparing his mausoleum when he was alive, this national funeral was finished before New Year's Eve, and there is a precedent for the time of suspension, so we have to respect it, let alone What's more, the mausoleum of the first emperor is the largest of the several generations of emperors after the founding of the country. Shui Zhan always stands on the principle of reasoning no matter what the actual situation is.The imperial court has been controlled by Jinshang for many years. Although the death of the Supreme Emperor has some shocks, the actual impact is not great.

It's just that this new year is quite deserted because of the national mourning, but the missions from the country that came to the court have brought a lot of benefits to the people. To hinder them, the court's request for mourning this time is quite lenient. No lights, no flowers, no wine, no feast.

Lin Zhenyu had nothing to do in the mansion, leaning lazily on the kang in a daze, when Chuxue brought tea, seeing her uncle with the same expression as a few lazy cats beside him, she couldn't help "puchi" laughing out loud.

Zhenyu glanced at her sideways, took the tea cup and took a sip.These big girls are not too young, and they have been serving them with all their heart and heart for the past few years. Zhenyu also values ​​them, and is thinking about pointing them to a good family in the next two years.

Chuxue and the little girl took these cat ancestors out to feed them. Now there are seven or eight big and small cats in the house. The second master cherishes these cats the most. Now the master is free to teach and consider his knowledge. Second master Sending these naughty ghosts to the uncle, Chuxue laughed inwardly, there really is such a cat for every kind of master!The two big cats in the grandfather's yard like to bask in the sun with their eyes squinted the most. Erye's cat loves to follow people's footsteps.

Rubbing the center of her brows, Lin Zhenyu sat up straight, thinking that it would be better to show some meaning to her father at this time, and not delusional about explaining that Bai would teach her father to accept it. Mental preparation.

After making up her mind, Zhenyu mentioned Shui Yang in front of Lin Ruhai every now and then. The expression on her face didn't have to be fake. There was always something different between the lovers when they talked about each other. Gradually, Lin Ruhai also seemed to notice something. As soon as Yu mentioned this topic, he crossed it without a trace.Zhenyu felt uneasy, and dared not speak out for fear of irritating the old man, and fearing that her father would not allow it. In a few days, she could not eat well and sleep well, and in a few days she would become rusty.I can only have fun in the bitterness to comfort myself: with my father's sensitivity, I'm afraid I have some guesses in my heart.

Lin Ruhai was even more panicked. He always felt that King Jing was too kind to his son. He had already guessed in his heart, and only hoped that it was due to the relationship between the two since childhood, but unexpectedly, Shui Yang really had such thoughts!Now he dragged his son into the water.

Lin Ruhai was so worried in private that she even pulled off a lot of beautiful beards. To be honest, this kind of sex between men and women has been uncommon in the scholar-bureaucrat class since ancient times, and this dynasty is even more open. There are quite a few sons of aristocratic families who get along well with each other. It can even be said that this is an elegant thing, and the two don't delay getting married and having children. Naturally, the family will not care too much.But what kind of temperament is his son? After all these years, he still doesn't know. If he told himself so insincerely, he must have identified King Jing in all likelihood!In this way, after King Jing married his concubine and had children, how would his own children deal with themselves, not to mention having no wife and no children?Lin Ruhai naturally also wanted to hold a grandson.

But King Jing is the younger brother of the current superior, and he is the most favored, so how could he not marry a concubine?The identities of the two are very different, and it will be his own son who will suffer at that time.

Lin Ruhai was determined to bring his son back no matter what.In his opinion, King Jing, who used to be good in the past, has now become a vicious villain who seduces his own son. His own baby hurts him, and Lin Ruhai instructs Zhenyu to do this and that without any trace, just to prevent him from going out alone by himself.He ordered Lin Fu to secretly beat the powerful long-tailed swings and other four thousand and four rivers beside his son.

Lin Zhenyu's days of idleness and panic are gone forever. In addition to investigating Fu Yu's poetry and calligraphy, Lin Ruhai also tells some allusions from history books from time to time, intending to let the eldest son see clearly the most amazing story in history. Once a character has any involvement with a high-ranking person, he will be treated as a male pamper, and the end will be bad.Also do some prevention for the younger son.

He even started privately asking the head butler, Lin Fu, to ask someone to quietly inquire about a good girl of the right age in the capital. Lin Ruhai was concerned about Jia Min's instructions and the motto of Master Huiyan and his party, but only a weak crown can marry a wife. next kiss?

Fortunately, there were three congratulations and four congratulations in Lin's residence, and fortunately, the former emperor's family was not allowed to marry, marry and have banquets for a year. Shui Yang finally got this letter after he was busy, and panicked for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, for a person like Uncle Lin who has a lot of thoughts, false responses and temptations will not work at all, it would be better to come directly to the door.Shui Yang ordered people to pack up the presents, and went straight to Lin's mansion.

On the way, Shuiyang's heart was sweet and stuffy. Zhenyu's actions showed that his young man cared about what he liked, and wished he could put his arms around the young man and kiss him now.It's a pity that the house not far from the Lin Mansion has just been tidied up, and all the bad things have finally passed, and I just want to kidnap my boy and live there for a few days...

From the corner of Qin Shulai's eyes, he saw that the corners of his prince's mouth turned up for a while, and drooped down for a while, the corners of his eyes and mouth twitched. Sure enough, his master was abnormal when he met Master Zhen!Heaving a sigh of relief, Qin Shulai smiled, this is very good, it is much better than the gloomy frown of the master in the palace a few days ago, isn't it, if it is not normal, it is not normal.

Arriving in front of the Lin Mansion, the concierge quickly went in to report with a bitter face, muttering in his heart, when this nobleman came and went, the housekeeper would directly invite him into the mansion, but this time, for some reason, the master personally ordered that anyone who comes should be notified!A few days ago, they stopped Mr. Zhou once, and they got several angry "Huh!", in the end, the master himself invited him into the mansion?But my master did not change his words, and still emphasized that no matter who came, he had to be notified before he could enter.

He Er looked at the speed of the concierge and his master's unsmiling face, and touched his chin. Are they being guarded by Master Lin like a wolf?

Lin Ruhai stared at the concierge, making the poor concierge's heart skip a beat, what's wrong with angering the master?After a while, with a "hum", he told Chang Qing: "Don't ask the uncle to come to the study, go to his brother's courtyard to give lectures!"

Chang Qing hurriedly went, Ruhai took Lin Fu up, walked out, and said to the porter: "Go and invite someone in first."

The concierge didn't dare to delay, and hurried forward, just wondering, wouldn't this nobleman not need the master to welcome him out and invite him into the mansion?

Lin Ruhai was angry in his heart, but he did not lack any of the courtesy he should have. He was even more cautious than before, or to put it bluntly, alienated.He has always been quite optimistic about Shui Yang, and he has a relationship with him in the Yangzhou mansion for three years. Jia Min also loved him when he was alive. Zhenyu is also thanks to his help all these years, but all these add up. It was worse than Wu Ruhai's fear of his son's loss.

If it is said that Father Lin is one of the few fathers who dote on their children very much, if this happened at the house of other ministers, the first one would have to sneak away his bold son and beat him up before thinking about it.It is also because Zhenyu performed too well in these years, Jia Min passed away early, Ruhai owed these three children a lot, and could not bear to be harsh.

Shui Yang saw that Lin Hai's words were not in the usual tone, so he saluted, straight to the point, and said, "Uncle Lin, how about continuing in the study?"

Seeing Shui Yang's appearance, Lin Ruhai secretly had some blue eyes, and knew in his heart that King Jing was somewhat sincere to his boy.

When Lin Zhenyu got the letter in his younger brother's courtyard, Shui Yang and Lin Hai had already closed the door of the study and went to talk. Zhenyu was in a hurry, afraid that what Shui Yang would say would anger his father, and he was afraid that his father would refuse to agree. .

Asked Qin Shu for a few words, Qin Shu came to see Master Zhen fidgeting, hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea, and didn't know what to persuade, so he could only say dryly: "Master Zhen, don't worry..."

Lin Ruhai talked with Shui Yang for a long time, and didn't open the door until the sun was setting.Master Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to look at the faces of the two of them: Although Ru Hai was calm, he didn't look angry at all, while Shui Yang was normal. He always had a smile in front of the Lin family.

Zhenyu breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know what the two said at the time, and he didn't dare to ask Lin Ruhai. Even if the old man let go later, he was still reluctant. Absolutely no good.Shuiyang's mouth is as tight as a clam shell, and it can't be pried open just for this matter.As soon as Zhenyu was depressed, she was dragged onto the bed by his family's malicious "daughter-in-law" to calm down...

Shui Yang and Zhen Yu said a few words under Lin Ruhai's burning eyes, and Shui Yang left.Before leaving, Shui Yang secretly held the boy's hand and squeezed it lightly, which meant to reassure him.It caused Lin Ruhai to stare.

These two have not been able to see each other for many days, and now their eyes are glued to each other for a while, Lin Ruhai's stare is for the blind to see, and the slightest innocence of these two eyes is somehow confused. His teeth became sore for a while, he coughed angrily, and rushed to send Shui Yang away.

Turning around, he didn't look at Zhenyu, and gave Lin Fu a clear order: "If your uncle goes out in the future, ask Ma Shou and Chang Qing to follow, those little servants of his are young and don't take it seriously!"

Shui Yang rode on the horse and did not go to the palace, but to the direction of the palace.

In the conversation with Uncle Lin just now, he said a lot. Uncle Lin didn't take a breath, but at least he let him know about the two of them. Shui Yang knew that there was no need to rush this matter. Zhenyu cared about his family, and Uncle Lin loved her. The child, of course, wants his son to marry and have a smooth life. Not to mention other things, Uncle Lin is worried about his own identity.

During this conversation, Lin Hai made it clear that he did not want Zhenyu to know about it. He had sharp eyes and a sharp heart, thinking that it would be impossible to forcibly separate the two of them, so he asked Shui Yang a lot of sharp questions. , who can guarantee that the Holy Majesty will not attack Zhenyu?The Holy Majesty would never agree!Lin Ruhai knew that Zhenyu's weight in King Jing's heart might not be clear, and he said that he hoped that Shui Yang could think clearly and retreat despite difficulties.Zhenyu has a stubborn temper. He doesn't want to force his son, and he is afraid that it will have a negative effect and affect their father-son relationship.

Shui Yang didn't stop all the way to Xingqing Palace. It was the time to pass meals in the palace at this moment. Shui Zhan looked at his younger brother suspiciously, why did Xiao Jiuer come back?He remembered how eager he was when he left earlier, hmph, thinking sourly today.

With a wave of his hand, Wei Jinchao sent another set of dishes knowingly, even if the palace servants in the palace retreated, he was the last to walk and gently closed the palace door, standing outside to wait.

Shui Zhan waved his hands and said with a smile, "Let's finish the meal first."

After all the dishes were removed, Wei Jinchao came back with freshly brewed hot tea and withdrew, Shui Yangfang said: "Brother, I won't marry concubines." So don't think about it in the general election in the future.

As soon as he said this, Shui Zhan was stunned for a moment, sighed and frowned and asked, "Is it for that kid from the Lin family?"

It's not surprising that Shui Yang said this, but it would be strange if his brother didn't know at all, he nodded and shook his head, because he said: "It's for me. I was willing to be with him since I was a child, and it hasn't changed since we separated... ...Brother, I will not let others come in between us!"

Shui Zhan really has nothing to do with this younger brother, and he is not willing to scold him, and now he is trying to persuade him: "The boy from the Lin family is not in conflict with your concubine, but he is just a woman who occupies a position as a display, and he can still be tied down. You? Besides, won’t the Lin family boy get married? "

One sentence made Shui Yang's face darken, and he said stiffly: "Zhenyu won't marry a wife! I won't either."

Shui Zhan took a look at his younger brother's appearance, well, this is stepping on the cat's tail.Let out a sigh of relief, in fact, the things that Xiao Jiuer has done all these years have not been hidden from him, he has already known it in his heart, and according to his younger brother's cherishment of the Lin family boy, if he hurts his heart, he must not give up the palace. The roof is off.Shui Zhan has a sentimental feeling of "the son can't help his father", and he doesn't feel that this temper is the indulgence of his elder brother.

So Lin Zhenyu and Shui Yang are very lucky. The father and elder brother at the booth are not people who are obsessed with face and face, but people who really love them.

In fact, the reason why Jiao Shui Zhan acquiesced was that he hoped that his younger brother could live a good life, and the most important thing for Lin Zhenyu to be recognized was that it was written in the secret book of the secret guard since he met Lin Zhenyu, especially Lin Zhenyu. After the capital city, Xiao Jiu'er had fewer nightmares and didn't sleep all night long.

The scene of his mother's death that day was witnessed by his younger brother, who was less than three years old, which made Shui Zhan heartbroken. Maybe it was too exciting. Later, he found that his younger brother would often have this nightmare. Shui Yang was stubborn and refused to speak out, but he He and Uncle Chen both saw it, and tried many ways to no avail, so Shui Zhan didn't take action to get rid of Lin Zhenyu when he saw the reason. He was much more sensitive than his silly Xiaojiu.

The two brothers couldn't help talking again in the middle of the night, and Shui Zhan had quickly planned in his mind the future affairs of his younger brother, such as telling the world, such as adoptive heirs.

At the end, Shui Zhan rubbed the center of his brows, and said, "Get lost! What time is it!"

The corners of Shui Yang's mouth curled up, and he decided to stay overnight in Zhuque Palace, and then go to Lin's house to see Zhenyu tomorrow, um, talk to Uncle Lin more, does this kind of thing just need water grinding?

When he was about to leave the palace gate, he turned his head and said to his brother: "Grandpa, where is uncle..."

Shui Zhan waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, I'll take care of this matter, I know you don't like girls from your aunt's family." Shui Yang was not close to his grandfather's family, and the Shen family began to hide to gather strength to help Shui Zhan In order not to attract attention, he naturally ignored this little grandson.Shui Yang also has a serious personality, and after succeeding to the throne, it is difficult for him to get close to his grandfather and uncle, but it is his aunt who wants to give Shui Yang a few nieces from her natal family.

Hearing this, Shui Yang went out Shi Shiran.Provoking one corner of his mouth, Shui Yang felt for the first time that Mr. Chen's nagging was still very useful, otherwise he would not have known from Uncle Chen what his brother said when he worshiped his mother a few days ago. I mentioned it to my mother.He was in a hurry today, if he hadn't had no idea, he wouldn't have dared to say it directly, would he?

Shui Yang's current mood can't be expressed for the time being, but one can imagine that Lin Ruhai's face will be as dark as the bottom of a pot when he sees Prince Jing who is coming again tomorrow.
