Warriors in the Red Chamber

The girl looked at Xiao Zhiyuan and Daiyu with desperately struggling and praying eyes, the girl had delicate features, but she was a beauty, especially the rouge between her eyebrows, which was as big as a grain of rice, added to her luster.

Xiao Zhiyuan is not a man who tolerates presumptuousness, seeing that this person is about to attack again, naturally a servant will detain him.The man wanted to quibble: "What are you going to do, even if you are a young master, you can't wrong a good person, this is my girl."

Xiao Zhiyuan didn't bother to pay attention to this man, he just asked the girl: "What's your name, if you don't say he's not your father, then where are you from?" I remember that there is a gourd temple near my house, but I don’t remember anything else, I was abducted by this man, he often beat and scolded me, begging the young master to save me.”

Xiao Zhiyuan never thought that such a trip would run into Xiangling who would be snatched away by Bawang Xue in the future, but he looked at Daiyu who was worried and thought that the two were really destined. , even if this is the case, it should be saved.

I didn't pay attention to that person, and just asked someone to send him to the Yangzhou yamen. It would not be wrong for a kidnapper like this to be beaten to death. Daiyu was very happy to see Xiao Zhiyuan's treatment, and hurriedly helped Xiangling up and said, "Sister, don't Afraid."

Xiao Zhiyuan looked at Daiyu calmly comforting Xiangling with the appearance of a little adult, and praised: "Yu'er is getting more and more capable." Then he said to Xiangling: "If you want, you can go back with us first , I will ask someone to help you inquire about family news."

Xiang Ling hurriedly said: "The two young masters saved me, I will listen to the two young masters."

Because of Xiangling's matter, the two stopped wandering and went back to the mansion. Lin Hai arranged for someone to follow them and naturally knew about it, so as soon as they returned to the mansion, someone came to invite Xiao Zhiyuan to the study, and Xiangling was also arrested by someone. Take it down and settle down without mentioning it.

Despite Lin Hai's summons, Xiao Zhiyuan sent Daiyu back to her small courtyard first. Daiyu was extremely tired because she had few activities on weekdays, but she just resisted to let Xiao Zhiyuan hug her.Xiao Zhiyuan couldn't say anything, who made the world like this, even if Daiyu was still young, he couldn't be too much, so he could only ask the maids to take good care of her without mentioning it.

After seeing off Daiyu and Xiao Zhiyuan, he went to the study. Sure enough, his brother-in-law was also there, and the two were playing chess, but it seemed that Lin Hai had lost.Xiao Zhiyuan was always very polite in front of Lin Hai, and he didn't interfere with the two of them, he just waited on the side after saying hello.

Lin Hai's study room is very elegantly furnished, which is in line with Lin Hai's usual image.

After a while, Lin Hai gave up, and Gu Yi took a sip of the tea cup and said, "You don't know what Mr. Lin is thinking today, if you don't know what to do, don't call me to play chess." .”

Naturally, Lin Hai knew his situation and was not annoyed. He just smiled and turned to Xiao Zhiyuan and said, "Today is a hard-working nephew. I heard that you have encountered trouble on the street, so let's talk about it!"

Xiao Zhiyuan replied with a smile: "Uncle Shi, you are being polite. I have always regarded Yu'er as my younger sister. This is a matter of my duty. It's not a big deal, it's just a little girl kidnapped by a kidnapper. Sister Yu'er is thinking kindly. Help, the kidnapper has been sent to the yamen by someone I sent, only the girl brought it back, I thought it would be a good deed if I could find her family, if I can’t watch it, I can do it for sister Yu’er a companion."

Hearing this, Lin Hai nodded and said: "You have thought carefully, I will ask Lin Cheng to do this matter, you are tired today, go and rest yourself!"

Xiao Zhiyuan said goodbye and went back without mentioning it, but Gu Yi looked dissatisfied with his nephew's honest appearance in front of Lin Hai and said inadvertently: "Zhiyuan brought this girl back, and I thought he was enlightened, how could I know it was for Yu'er .”

Lin Hai looked at Gu Yi in surprise and said, "You're also an uncle, and Zhiyuan only said that when he was young."

Gu Yi's original intention was to remind Lin Hai to be wary of his nephew, but he didn't expect to be discouraged by being said, so he just ignored Lin Hai. Don't blame me for not reminding him someday.Feeling dissatisfied, Gu Yi said he was tired and walked away, making Lin Hai a little confused.

Since then, Xiangling has settled down in Lin's house. Mother Lin saw that she was quite well-behaved, so she taught her the rules and sent her to be a maid beside Daiyu.Lin Hai did ask someone to help her find her family, but Xiang Ling couldn't remember anything, so finding it like this was like looking for a needle in a haystack.Xiao Zhiyuan wanted to help, but unfortunately although he knew about the Dream of Red Mansions, Xiangling really didn't pay much attention so he helped.

The Jiangnan officialdom has been calm since Lin Hai severely rectified the salt merchants. Needless to say, the emperor’s faction knows that His Majesty in the Jiangnan officialdom is in the hands of Lin Hai, while the loyal faction is because of the Zhen family. Suffered a big loss, had to hibernate.

It's just that the Zhen family is unwilling to swallow this breath on the one hand, and the more important thing is that they need money.Not to mention the money sent to Beijing every year, even the Zhen family spent a lot of money.Speaking of which, the Zhen family is also a big family for many years. Although it is said that there is no meritorious service from the dragon, the old lady of the Zhen family is the emperor's nanny. Through this Zhen family, she has also been prominent for these years, but she is not popular enough to send her to the palace. To seek more prominent wealth.

When the Zhen family ran rampant in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, they also suffered from Lin Hai's hands. Seeing that they couldn't bring Lin Hai down for a while, they naturally came up with other ideas.

In the study, Du Ruo and Gu Yi were both there. Du Ruo being Lin Hai's number one counselor was naturally indispensable to him, but it was Gu Yi.Du Ruo looked calmly at this young master of the Hou family who came from the middle of Beijing, but he was just a subordinate who had some things to say but he couldn't say them.

Lin Hai tapped the table lightly, thinking about what to do. According to Du Ruo's news, the Zhen family has made another move, and the picture is naturally silver.The best places to reach out for the money in the south of the Yangtze River are salt administration, river channels, and water transportation.Among the three, the Yanzheng side believes that they should not be so stupid to do it again, so there are only two left.

Lin Hai looked at Du Ruo and said, "Which way will the Zhen family move?" Yi Jingzhi thought for a while and said, "I understand that if the Zhen family wants to get more money, they will probably aim at the river. One is that the river channel has more money, and the other is that the Governor of Water Transport is His Majesty's man, so it won't be so easy for the Zhen family to succeed."

Lin Hai shook his head and said, "Jingzhi's words make sense, but the Zhen family may not choose the river course." Du Ruo frowned and said, "My lord, please clarify."

"Although there is a lot of money in the river, the water in the river has always been deep, and most of the officials on the river are father and son, and they are closely related to the Ministry of Industry. If it is not a last resort, the Zhen family may not be willing to drain the muddy water. On the contrary. Water Transport, although the Governor of Water Transport is His Majesty's man, but the foundation is not deep, the Zhen family has a lot to do."

After listening to Lin Hai's analysis, Du Ruo's eyes lit up and said, "It's the students who can't think clearly, and the adults are wise." Lin Hai waved his hands, but there was no smile on his face, and he was thinking about something instead.

Du Ruo didn't know what it meant, and just glanced at Gu Yi, who was silent all the time.Gu Yi still had some understanding of Lin Hai, so he said: "Since Ru Hai already knows what they want to do, just invite you into the urn, and then it would be great to cut off one of their hands."

Lin Hai said indifferently: "The Zhen family deserves to die, but how much money the river has been greedy for over the years, the river has been repaired and destroyed every year, and how many people have been displaced every year, shouldn't these people deserve more death."

Gu Yi changed the expression on his face and stood up suddenly: "Of course, the Ministry of Industry will take care of the affairs on the river, and if it's not good, the Yushitai will have nothing to do with you. Don't be confused." Lin Hai's temperament is I know, when I was young, I couldn't rub the sand in my eyes. I thought he should have changed his temper after so many years in the officialdom. How did he know that he was as big as a barrel, and the river is a hornet's nest. Who would dare to go there? bucket.

Seeing Gu Yi's anxious appearance, Lin Hai smiled and said, "Zi Gu, don't worry, I know what's in my heart, it's just that I'm not reconciled to seeing these moths like this, but I also know that the water in this river is too muddy. Wouldn't it be great to use the Zhen family to tear off a cover."

Only then did Gu Yi realize Lin Hai's plan. Hearing this, Lin Hai's eyes lit up, and he used the hands of the Zhen family to lift the lid of the river. This is indeed feasible, but the Zhen family is not stupid.

So he hesitated and said: "You also said that the Zhen family's goal should be in the water transportation, how do you let them go to the muddy water of the river?"

Lin Hai leaned on the back of his chair and said indifferently: "This requires good preparation. There are not many smart people in the Zhen family. The most shrewd one is the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia, who can do something. The rest of the people are nothing to be afraid of."

Gu Yi lightly hit the palm of his hand with a fan. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was wonderful. He looked at Lin Hai and said, "Ru Hai intends to kill three birds with one stone." After all, his relationship is chaotic. This person has always looked gentle on the outside, but he is the strongest on the inside, but he has too many worries in his heart.Du Ruo looked at Lin Hai and then at Gu Yi, but he really didn't understand the meaning.

Simply Lin Hai didn't intend to hide it from him and said: "We are only making preparations for this matter first, the key still depends on His Majesty's consciousness." Du Ruo only now understood that Lin Hai planned to bring Zhen Yingjia into the capital so that he could borrow Collecting evidence against the Zhen family by chance is naturally a good method, but His Majesty still needs to have the determination. If Du Ruo looks at Gu Yi without any trace, the Lord may have something to do with this plan.

When Gu Yi came that day, Lin Hai really didn't think much about it, but since he stayed and he didn't deliberately hide anything on weekdays, then the reason why he went to Yangzhou well, the two of them naturally knew each other.Lin Hai did not have any dissatisfaction with the emperor because of this, he was from the most orthodox scholar-official background, and the emperor sent Gu Yi down more to help him.He still understood the true meaning of this.
