When the butler came over, the two people in the small pavilion were silent.Looking in the direction of the housekeeper, knowing that his coming meant that the uncle had made a decision, Chen Lin felt his heart tense.

There was a little bit of can't wait and a little bit of excitement in my heart, but I looked at the thin figure who was still sitting on the stone bench, looking at the pool full of water outside.Suddenly there was a strange feeling in my heart that even surprised me, and I stepped forward gently.When the indifferent man raised his eyebrows and looked at him, Chen Lin suddenly reached out and hugged him tightly.

He kept using his hands hard, thinking about the scene when he took him all over the streets and alleys of the capital when he first came here.He remembered the scene where this man was filled with righteous indignation for himself in Jinyiwei when he was in a daze.Thinking of the scene where he suddenly appeared awkwardly to cheer himself up when he knew he wanted to take the imperial examination.

The cold feeling on his body suddenly became warmer, and he didn't know what to say.After hesitating for a while and slowly withdrawing his hands, Chen Lin looked at one side and said in a very low voice but very seriously: "Cousin, if the emperor's grandson can no longer protect you from wind and rain in the future, and can no longer be your reliance. Brother hopes that you can Put yourself first, never do stupid things, never try to be brave like others. Because--because uncle only has you as a son, because I only have you as an elder brother in this Chen family!"

Chen Shui didn't make a sound, only after being surprised.Looking fixedly at Chen Lin's side face, his breathing suddenly became heavy.

"you----"

"Cousin, hurry up and settle down. Uncle is angry with me because I was close to King Yan today. I have to explain. I may not be able to go out for two days. If cousin has time, he will often go home to accompany him." Would you like to accompany Lin'er?"

Suddenly smiled, then stuck out his tongue at the other party, and then Chen Lin immediately strode towards the middle-aged butler who had been waiting for a long time.

When approaching the butler, Chen Lin couldn't help turning his head back thinking about his boldness just now.

At this time, Chen Shui had already stood up, and was looking at him motionlessly in the stone pavilion.Facing his gaze, Chen Lin suddenly felt a little sad and reluctant for some reason.

"Cousin!"

Moving his lips, he let out a silent sigh.There seemed to be a faint idea in his heart, but in the urging sound of the housekeeper behind him, he could only look away and press all the thoughts in his heart to follow the other party to the main house.

When Chen Lin arrived at the main house, the courtyard of the main house was full of guards and servants, and the entire courtyard was brightly lit.

Following the butler, Chen Lin walked into the lobby after passing the people on both sides.

In the lobby, Chen Fu changed into a dark red casual clothes at the moment, and was standing upright with his back to Chen Lin, looking at a plaque with the word "loyalty" on the wall, fascinated.

After the housekeeper reminded him, he slowly turned around.

"Uncle!" Taking a step forward, Chen Lin hurriedly knelt down and saluted him.Knowing that the door behind him was wide open, seeing that he still left the housekeeper by his side, Chen Lin became nervous for no reason.

"Lin'er, Uncle, I would like to ask you one last question. Do you still stubbornly think that His Highness King Yan will be a good monarch?"

"I---" I don't know why he mentioned this in front of so many people, but Chen Lin immediately said firmly and seriously: "Uncle, believe my Highness, he really---"

"Confused, confused!"

Before Chen Lin finished speaking, Chen Fu's face suddenly changed.

But just when Chen Lin's eyes jumped and he was a little surprised, he saw him pick up a white porcelain tea bowl on the table beside him, and smashed it at himself.

Looking at his movements, he was a little stunned. Before Chen Lin could react, he felt a pain in his forehead!

The sound of broken porcelain and Chen Lin's muffled snort surprised everyone standing outside.And just when everyone was holding their breath, Chen Fu inside suddenly pointed at Chen Lin and said loudly: "Someone here will immediately catch this scourge of unknown severity and send it back to Zhen'an overnight. From now on, without my order, He can't let him step out of the old house in Zhen'an. Tell the patriarch of Zhen'an to keep him under watch. My Chen family has always been loyal to the emperor. If this kid destroys my Chen family, I-- --"

His head was dizzy, and there seemed to be a person beating gongs and drums at him by his ears.Chen Lin put his hand on his forehead, slowly gritted his teeth and raised his head.

And the moment he raised his head, looking at the blood on the corners of his forehead and eyes, Chen Fu was also taken aback for a moment.Seeing him like this, the housekeeper hurriedly begged for mercy.

Chen Fu didn't feel better because of the butler's comfort and pleading, but felt a little furious.The butler was still trying to comfort him, but at this moment his body swayed, Chen Lin couldn't believe it.He could only stare at the uncle who was uncharacteristically agitated, not even daring to blink.

Chen Fu was still angry. Seeing this, the guards outside immediately ran up and pulled up Chen Lin who was kneeling.

"Master, please--" The guards around him persuaded Chen Lin to pull Chen Lin, but Chen Lin just looked back at his uncle frequently.

But before leaving the house, after turning his head and suddenly meeting Chen Fu's complicated eyes, Chen Lin could only bow his head quickly with a sore heart.

His eyes were sour, he never thought that he would come out in this way.Thinking of his family, thinking of King Yan's unusually cold attitude towards him.Not knowing if he could succeed, Chen Lin felt uneasy when he was stuffed into the carriage.

"Young master, young master, butler, please let me follow you!" When the carriage got out of the main house and reached the gate, Xiao Luzi suddenly shouted from outside.

Hearing this, Chen Lin immediately opened the curtain of the carriage, and when he saw Chen Lin in the carriage, Xiao Luzi immediately burst into tears: "Young Master, Young Master, please beg Master, please please the housekeeper. Young Master, I have been with you since I was a child, What will I do if you leave!"

"Shut up, boy, you want to wake everyone up at night, don't you!" Seeing Xiao Luzi yelling, the butler immediately blushed.

But just as he commanded his subordinates to pull Xiaoluzi away, Xiaoluzi, who was carrying the burden, suddenly knelt down on the ground.

"Butler Liu, please, please, the young master and I cannot be separated. I promise the master will take care of the young master. If I-I--without me, who will relieve the young master, who will cover the young master with the quilt, and who will accompany the young master to read and write ah."

"The butler let him come here for a while!" Knowing that he couldn't take him away, Chen Lin couldn't bear to look at him like this.

"This---" hesitated for a moment, glanced at Chen Lin and then at the anxious little road not far away.In the end, Butler Liu finally shook his hand at the servant who blocked the path: "Let him pass!"

As soon as Steward Liu finished speaking, Xiao Luzi ran over immediately.

"Young master, why did you get into trouble again. Young master, you are going back to your hometown in Zhen'an, you--" Putting the burden in Chen Lin's arms directly, Xiao Luzi suddenly lowered his voice and whispered: "Young master, what are you doing?" They are your Four Treasures of Study, you go back first, Xiaoluzi will arrive later. I will find a way to rescue you when the time comes, and then I will accompany you wherever you want to go, okay?"

The hand holding the bag was tight and tight, and after pinching the money inside, Chen Lin was speechless for a while.Seeing him staring anxiously at his reply, Chen Lin thought for a while and said softly: "Go to the young master, you stay by his side for now, I will come to you in the future."

"Young Master, you can't—" Xiao Luzi objected loudly when he heard Chen Lin's words.At this moment, the butler had already raised his hand and grabbed his collar and directly lifted him aside.

"Don't be so crooked!" He glared fiercely at Xiao Luzi who was about to rush up, and then Butler Liu immediately stepped forward and pulled down the curtain in front of Chen Lin.

"Master, take care!" After saluting Chen Linxing through the curtain.Butler Liu ordered in a loud voice: "Be careful on the road, don't make any mistakes, and send the young master back to Zhen'an safely. And the master said that the sooner the better, so everyone go by water!"

Following Steward Liu's order, the carriage immediately moved.

Seeing that Chen Lin's carriage was surrounded by tall and stalwart guards, Xiao Luzi couldn't help but ran towards the courtyard of the young master Chen Shui, sobbing.

When he arrived at the door of the eldest young master and saw that there were more than a dozen people blocked outside, the pathetic path in his heart could only run to his room again sullenly.

On April 31th in the [-]st year of Hongwu, Jin Yiwei received a message from Chen Lin resigning due to illness.

The person who came to deliver the message was Eunuch Huang, the famous man next to the eunuch Chen Fu, who was in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies. He saw Chen Fu speak in person.Jin Yiwei could only swallow all doubts and questions, and immediately crossed off Chen Lin's name from the list of Jin Yiwei's duty personnel.

On April 31th, Hongwu Year [-], Chen Fu received the news that Chen Lin accidentally fell into the water and his whereabouts were unknown.After that, for a long period of time, Chen Fu and even the whole Chen Mansion seemed surprisingly quiet.

Soon after, Chen Fu ordered the dismissal of all the teachers and maids who were originally prepared for Chen Lin.

Among these people, Wu Zheng was personally summoned by Chen Fu, and Wu Zheng, who was unemployed at home, received an appointment notice from the imperial court soon after.

Just when the Chen family fell into a downturn, Chen Fu and Chen Ning, Chen Shui became more and more unwilling to go home.Just when Wu Zheng was ready to go to office proudly, Chen Lin who finally arrived in Yanjing was miserable.

Zhen'an is a water town, where almost everyone knows how to drink water, of course he is no exception.But the chess missed a move, and he forgot to take the silver when diving.

After landing on the shore, he finally exchanged the jade pendant on his body for some silver.Originally, he used the money to find the Escort Bureau, and asked the people in the Escort Bureau to send him to Yanjing. Chen Lin did everything very well.It's a pity that the day he first came to Yanjing, he just looked curiously at the juggler on the side of the road, and threw two copper coins at the other side by the way.When he wanted to stay in the hotel again, the two ingots in his luggage were gone.

Those two ingots were all his remaining belongings, when he was politely invited out by the waiter at the inn.Touching his growling stomach, looking at the strange Yanjing Chen Lin suddenly didn't know what to do.

On May 31th, Hongwu year [-], Chen Lin had been starved for four full days, and was verbally warned and threatened eight times by local beggar gang members in a small temple on the outskirts of the city.When King Yan could not return to Yanjing and couldn't find a job for the time being, he finally joined the army helplessly because of the reason of including food and lodging.

At that time, he hadn't showered for several days, and his clothes were already dirty.Plus a little messy hair and dirty cheeks.Seeing him in front of a group of farmers and refugees, the soldiers in charge of conscription just glanced at him casually, and then directly wrote down his name and place of origin.
