Warriors in the Red Chamber

Unpredictable fortune and misfortune are sometimes really not empty words. Lin Hai was originally unwilling to confide the truth to him for the good of Su Ze.

When Lin Hai received the news of Su Ze's assassination, he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Situ Rui helped him in time.

"Ruhai, calm down, the imperial doctor said his life is not in danger."

Lin Hai's expression turned ugly and he said, "I'm going to see my brother."

"Okay..." Situ Rui naturally wouldn't refuse to agree at this time. He personally arranged for people to take Lin Hai to the Su Mansion. The people in the office finally showed their feet. Although this was not their original goal, it also proved that they had indeed touched the vital point of that person.

Lin Hai's complexion got better when he saw Su Ze. He asked the imperial physician about Su Ze's situation carefully and found out that his life was not in danger, and he just needed to rest and recover.Lin Hai finally felt less self-blame in his heart.

But there are some things that won't be left this way, so Lin Hai comforted his senior brother's family and left the Su residence with Situ Rui.

"Can you go somewhere with me?" Lin Hai asked Situ Rui instead of going back after leaving the Su Mansion.

Situ Rui smiled: "You know, as long as you want to go, I will be willing to accompany you."

Lin Hai also had a faint smile on his face when he heard the words: "We can't always wait for others to take action, we should also know the truth."

Lin Hai threw down these words and rode his horse in the opposite direction to Lin's mansion. Situ Rui raised his eyebrows and followed.

But when Lin Hai stopped, Situ Rui raised his eyebrows in surprise, how could it be here?

There is a plaque on the top of the three gates, which is written to the Xiao Mansion.Even in the residence of Xiao Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, it's possible that I missed it, since Xiao Yan still has great ability.

Seeing them dismounted, the guards in front of the gate rushed forward to inquire. They were all smart, and they knew that Lin Hai and Situ Rui had status when they saw their clothes, so they didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and only asked politely.

"Tell your master that Lin Hai is here to visit Mr. Xiao." Lin Hai was also polite, standing with his hands behind his back and said to the servant.

The servants of the big families in the capital know that they are important adults in the court. Hearing Lin Hai's self-reporting, he immediately became more polite, and sent someone to report, while saying: "I don't know if Master Lin is here, please wait a moment." Wait for a while, and wait for the slave to report to the master."

Situ Rui took a step forward and stood beside Lin Hai and asked in a low voice, "It's Mrs. Xiao you want to see? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Lin Hai tilted his head and smiled lightly: "Exactly, you underestimate people, you just listen for a while."

The two of them didn't whisper for a long time, when they saw the door of Xiao Mansion opened and Xiao Yan came out to greet him in person.By the way, Xiao Yan was also taken aback when he heard the news that Lin Hai came to pay a visit. He didn't know what was going on, but because he wanted to see his father, he didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, so he went to ask his father for instructions.

It's just that Xiao Yan was still at a loss when he was sent by his father to greet him at this moment.

When he saw the person who was with Lin Hai, his expression became more and more confused. The servant didn't say that this person was there before. He dared to show his face to Lin Hai, but he didn't dare to offend Situ Rui, so he quickly adjusted his expression and put on a look. Deputy smile.

It's a pity that neither Lin Haihe nor Situ Rui are interested in this. Lin Hai is still polite and just asks him to lead the way.

However, Situ Rui didn't pay any attention to him at all. For someone who was hostile to his lover, it would be considered polite for him to fix him.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan didn't dare to make any more fuss, he could only honestly lead the two into Xiao's mansion.Mr. Xiao is getting older now, and he doesn't really like living in the main courtyard. Instead, he lives in the smaller courtyard, which feels cleaner.

When seeing Xiao Heng, Lin Hai's expression was not obvious, but his heart was a little nervous. Although he was a little certain, he didn't have much evidence. It should be willing to talk about it.

Speaking of which, it was not the first time he had met Xiao Heng, and even when his father was still there, the two families had a good relationship, but he never thought that the relationship between the two families would be so deep.

Xiao Heng did not meet them in the house, but chose to meet them in the courtyard. Sometimes it is better to keep secrets in the spacious courtyard than in the room.

Lin Hai bowed first: "Lin Hai has seen the boss."

Xiao Heng raised his eyes and said indifferently: "Master Lin is polite, Prince Rui is also polite, please sit down, both of you!"

Fu looked at Xiao Yan again and said, "Go back, I have something to talk to the prince."

Xiao Yan was somewhat unwilling, but his father opened his mouth, and with Prince Rui around, he could only agree to leave without mentioning it.

Seeing Xiao Heng's actions, Lin Hai knew that he was going to talk openly, so he was not polite and said: "Should I call you Master Xiao, or should I call you Master Lin?"

There was a slight smile on Xiao Heng's wrinkled face: "No one has mentioned it for so many years, I almost forgot that my last name was Lin."

Lin Hai and Xiao Heng had never been doing well, but Situ Rui was overwhelmed in his heart. Xiao Heng's surname was Lin, how could this be possible, could it be him?

Thinking of the astonishing possibility, he almost knocked over the teacup in his hand. Lin Hai noticed that something was wrong with Situ Rui, and instantly understood that he was out of order, so he held him helplessly and said, "Calm down, throw those messy things out, It's not what you think, although his surname is Lin, he is not from the Lin family."

Xiao Heng probably also found Situ Rui's reaction amusing and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness Prince Rui is indeed thinking too much. Although my surname is Guo Lin, how can I be that lord? That lord is long gone." Full of loneliness.

Situ Rui was confused by these things, and looked at Lin Hai questioningly.Lin Hai explained to him in a low voice, which made Situ Rui stunned.

It turned out that Xiao Heng was an orphan taken in by the Lin family at the earliest time. To be precise, it was Lin Lang who rescued the child of the Lin family. Treat him like a brother.

Lin Yu grew up with Lin Lang, with Lin Lang's help, coupled with his own intelligence, he was a hundred times better than those princes and grandsons, but if it wasn't for the later encounters, his life would have been nothing but a failure.

Lin Lang met the emperor when he was 16 years old. Since then, everyone's life has been rewritten. The handsome young man who had no interest in power and tactics has since embarked on the road of seeking fame and fortune, just to please you.

It was at that time that Lin Yu was used by Lin Lang. He tried his best to help him change his face and take part in the imperial examination as another person. As a powerful minister, who would have thought that the final result would be like that.

After hearing this, Situ Rui found it inconceivable, and said after a long time: "Then Father doesn't know?"

Xiao Heng smiled strangely: "Your Majesty may or may not know that Young Master Lin made this move of mine in order to take back power for His Majesty, but before I had any effect, Young Master and His Majesty resolved the matter smoothly. Everything, but at that time the seeds of a future rift were probably planted between them, so the young master kept this matter a secret, but I think His Majesty knows."

"Okay, Mr. Xiao, I'm not here for these old things, you should know." Lin Hai interrupted the conversation between them and mentioned the purpose of his visit today.

"Of course I know that you are here because of the forces left behind by the young master. But how old do you think I am?" Xiao Heng didn't evade, but asked suddenly.

Lin Hai frowned slightly, puzzled.

"The old man is already a rare year this year. Even if the people under the young master are still alive, they are all old men." Xiao Heng said slowly, as if he didn't see Lin Hai's face suddenly changed. Now, how many of them will recognize Lin Lang."

Lin Hai clenched his fists to calm himself down. In fact, he had already guessed this point before he came here. If those individuals really remembered Lin Lang, they would definitely not attack their Lin family. The facts are obvious. Lin Lang After death, this power fell into the hands of some other people, and after the death of those old people, the people who were born in their hearts probably wouldn't even recognize who Lin Lang was.

The situation of their Lin family was probably worse than he imagined.But since he is here, he needs to know the whole truth, at least he needs to know who is trying to harm them.

"I don't expect to recognize the Lin family after this, but I want to know who has this power, or who is manipulating it." Lin Hai asked calmly.

Xiao Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Fan Lin Hai and said softly: "You don't look like him very much, yes, if he can have children, he will probably be like him!" After sighing, he said: "Although I am on good terms with him, but Anbu But I don’t know much about it, it’s just that he left me a letter and made some arrangements before he died, so I know something, how much do you know?”

"I only know that Prince Yizhong had some around him back then, but this part is very weird. At first, I thought that their purpose was to drive a wedge between him and the emperor and provoke disputes, but now it seems that there must be something wrong. , the rest is the one hiding in the dark." Speaking of which, Lin Hai also had a headache, Liu Mingyu's letter made him think that he had cleared his mind, but he didn't want the sudden dispute in the palace to make him fall into confusion again.

Xiao Heng sighed heavily when he heard the words: "That child Ming Yu is a pity!"

"What do you mean?" Lin Hai looked at Xiao Heng sharply and asked him to give an explanation.

"You should have been misled by Mingyu's information. Mingyu's life experience is somewhat similar to mine. The young master mentioned him to me back then. He originally wanted to be well-educated, but he didn't want to be misled after the young master's death. become the result later.”
