The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

The scenery on this day is just right, beside the jasper lake, the grass of forgetfulness is deep.

In front of Yutai Temple, in the Xiaoxuan Pavilion, sips the new early spring tea, but Shen Yulin is full of anger.

After setting up the stage and inviting actors, he was about to perform a good show with gongs and drums, but was stopped by the prince.

"Yu Lin has no other intentions, but thinks that since Wang Ziteng is a royalist, it is impossible for him to surrender, why not..."

The man opposite him was dressed in a black gold embroidered robe. Hearing this, he raised his head slightly, revealing a calm and handsome dimple.

Yongning Wang Jiqian.

"The layout of Yulin is very good, but it's dangerous."

Shen Yulin was stunned, and said with a smile: "I also ask the prince to give me advice."

"The series of strategies should be intertwined. Although Yulin appears to be thorough this time, it is also unexpected."

"Yu Lin takes it...too much for granted."

Shen Yulin put down the blue and white teacup in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Yu Lin knew that Liu Xianglian would not be able to bear to teach Xue Pan a lesson, but he forgot to calculate... If he doesn't report to the officials... then all the backhands will be useless, right? "

Shen Yulin couldn't help but said, "He's a dude, how could he expect Yulin to be scheming?"

Ji Qian saw his pair of phoenix eyes staring round and round, he was so cute, he couldn't help rubbing the top of his hair, and said, "What if he just hides because he feels ashamed?"

"..."

Shen Yulin was silent for a while.

"This matter... Yu Lin didn't think carefully..."

Ji Qian withdrew his hand and said: "Don't act rashly, that Wang Ziteng belongs to the eldest brother."

Shen Yulin was shocked.

"This king also found out by chance that Prince Teng has a concubine who is the concubine of the side concubine Qi of Yongzong's palace."

Shen Yulin frowned slightly as she listened. This Wang Ziteng is not stupid, how could he do such a thing?

Back then, when Ji Chenxin promoted him to be the ruler of the nine provinces, he also gave his niece to King Yongning as a side concubine, which was just beating him and making him not have any second thoughts. After all, the daughter of a hero is not a concubine. Unwritten rules.

Now, he actually hooked up with King Yongzong?

The way the little thing frowns and thinks hard is really cute.

Ji Qian was thinking, his left hand clasped his right arm that was about to move under the stone table.

"It's still useful for the king to keep him, but don't worry, he... doesn't have the life to be the prime minister."

Shen Yulin looked at Ji Qian in astonishment, but he didn't even realize that he, who has always been well-mannered, had unknowingly surpassed him many times today.

"The matter of Wang Ziteng, I have my own conclusion in my heart."

Shen Yulin suppressed his unwillingness, and said with a smile: "Since the prince said so..."

"The king has other things for you to do." Ji Qian said.

......

"Kyoto...the severed finger case?"

☆☆☆☆☆.

For officials, especially civil servants, a pair of writing hands is the most important thing. However, recently, officials have frequently had their fingers amputated in their sleep, and they only wake up in the morning.

Shen Yulin flipped through the files page by page, with only a wry smile in his heart.

It's true that he wants to become famous as soon as possible, and it doesn't take such effort.

The case of severed fingers in Kyoto...is similar to the case of a noble daughter's misstep in his previous life. At the beginning, he also borrowed the clues found in this case, but...he is not Yu Shangqing!

Thousands of years of inheritance, those ancient martial arts families naturally existed. It is said that the heirs of those families had to bathe in medicine every day when they were young, and medicine was not the only thing.

Ji Yulin doesn't know if it's useful or not, but the martial arts of those family guards are really unpredictable. Although the case was solved back then, the murderer was Xiaoyao escaped. Afterwards, he killed three batches of Ji family dead soldiers in a row. .

The imperial palace has its own masters to protect, Jin Gaozu is clean and doesn't wear beards, but those officials who go in and out every day are much easier to deal with than the noble ladies who don't leave the gate.

This should be Yu Shangqing's famous case.

Shi Zai Yu Shangqing has an upright personality, and with a pure heart, he persuaded the four ancient martial arts families to be loyal to the imperial court. This is how his later holy family came.

Shen Yulin looked at his white palm, and it was hard to imagine what it would be like if he lost a finger.

How can there be... dark guards by his side now... no!

The corners of Shen Yulin's lips stiffened slightly.

People who are used to the hidden guards will have a mysterious feeling over time. Without looking, they will subconsciously know which side is guarded. Nudge left...

This feeling is more believable than that of Ji Jiasheng and Death Guard.

Dark Guard...

Shen Yulin suddenly recalled the two dark shadows beside the prince of Yongning Palace that day.

It turned out to be like this, he calmed down, his lips curled up slightly.

☆☆☆☆☆.

Shen Yulin didn't want to take the credit for Yu Shangqing. Now that he had resurrected his soul, he gradually began to believe in the cycle of karma, not to mention that he was still young, his foundation was unstable, and he was easy to criticize because of his reputation. , enough to teach him to stand firm among his peers.

With that in mind, he knocked on the door of Yu's house.

Yu's family is a farming and studying heirloom, and it is indeed a bit poor. Due to the spring rain the day before yesterday, some weeds have grown on the mud-brick land, and moss is spreading on the corner of the wall, just like the secluded and dilapidated ancient temple in the storybook.

Shen Yulin followed a pair of children all the way in, but his smiling face never changed a bit.

Yu Shangqing was a little annoyed at Miss Jia's refusal to marry him, but when he saw Shen Yulin, he became cautious again.

There is a kind of person, even if he is kind everywhere, he can't hide his noble and domineering appearance.

"Brother Yu...No, maybe it's better to call brother-in-law in advance..."

Before Shen Yulin could finish speaking, Yu Shangqing hurriedly waved his hands and said: "The reputation of the girl's family is important, my brother should not talk more."

Shen Yulin's heart skipped a beat, "Brother Yu, why do you say that?"

Seeing that he really didn't know, Yu Shangqing slowed down his tone, cupped his hands and repeated what the matchmaker said, and said: "A few days ago, I was delusional for my brother, this marriage, it doesn't matter if it doesn't end."

He looked resolute, he must be determined, and Shen Yulin was not easy to persuade, the reputation of his daughter's family was indeed important, if such a word or two came out, his sister might never want to marry for the rest of her life.He had no choice but to laugh and said, "It's sister Yi who has no relationship with brother Yu, I only hope brother Yu will not take this matter to heart."

Most of the time, marriage is just a small means, but few real alliances of interests that share honor and disgrace rely on women.

Politicians who can even count on themselves when necessary, how can there be such a "love daughter" or "beloved sister"?

Since he had already fallen in love with Yu Shangqing, he didn't care about that elder sister who didn't see much, he just said: "Yu Lin is here... there are other important things."

......

"Yu Lin was young, and when he got this case, he was panicked and afraid of losing the king's grace. Hearing that brother Yu is good at debating, I came here to ask you for help."

Yu Shangqing looked at Shen Yulin's juvenile cheeks that were still childish, and the blackness under those bright and bright phoenix eyes, he hesitated in his heart, but said in his mouth: "I'm just a document, what can I do for you?"

Shen Yulin blinked, and said with a smile: "Yulin is uneasy, and brother Yu, who is upright and upright, dares to let go and investigate the case."

Yu Shangqing couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips, "Is Yulin just afraid that the murderer will come?"

Shen Yulin's face froze, and soon he returned to his graceful smile. He bowed and said, "Brother Yu, please help Yulin."

Yu Shangqing was originally soft-hearted, so he agreed with what he said, but he still said: "In my opinion, since Yulin is on good terms with the general, why don't you ask him to send some personal guards... ..."

Shen Yulin smiled and said nothing.

It's not worth it for the hero who rolled over on the battlefield to ruin Shen Yulin's Vanity Fair like this.

☆☆☆☆☆.

Uncle Zhao tossed the bronze mask in his hand back and forth, and couldn't help asking: "Mu, don't you think it hurts to wear this thing?"

He saw many people wearing this kind of mask on the street, so he followed suit and bought one, but he didn't know that it was a deadly thing, and wearing it for a whole morning almost rubbed off a layer of his skin.

Look at the one on Chen Mutou's face, it has more weight than his.

Chen Yanqing was chopping firewood, when he heard the words, he gave a muffled reply, and split another piece with a "boom".

Good guy, Uncle Zhao's head hurts. Ever since they picked up this stupid guy, their family no longer needs to hire people. They cut firewood, burn fire, move goods, do groceries, do grocery shopping, and run errands. Will it?

He turned his eyes around Chen Yanqing's tall and strong body, and he couldn't help thinking, this stupid big man really wants to come to our house to be his son-in-law, right?

Compared with him, Jia Zheng, who used to look very handsome, is nothing but a chicken!Although he may be a bit ugly wearing a mask, but a man is for living, and a good face has a purpose!

When they fled to the capital, in order not to starve to death, my sister sold herself by sticking a grass sign on her head. The three taels of silver allowed the father and son to gain a firm foothold in the capital. The money was collected enough, but another letter came, saying that it was a housekeeper for the young master of the mansion...

Uncle Zhao didn't dare to think about how she got here in those years. The father and son owed her too much, and now he only hoped that she would live in peace and order.

"Wu Mu, if you dare to forgive my sister, I will not let you go even if I die."

Chen Yanqing paused for a moment with the hand holding the hatchet, "Understood, Brother Zhao."

This is a promise between men.

Shen Yulin told Shen Xiang the whole story, Shen Xiang pondered for a while and then said: "Since the lord has other plans, this matter will be shelved for now, and you and I will talk about the case of severed fingers together as a teacher."

Shen Yulin only smiled and said: "But for ordinary cases, I already have a clue."

Although the culprits were clever in their tactics, they had many flaws compared to the misstep case in later generations. Presumably, ancient martial arts are at their peak, and they are used to fighting with martial arts, so they are not as cautious as later generations.

The founding king of the Ning Dynasty used 50 strong soldiers to slaughter all the ancient martial arts families. When it came to Dayu, there was nothing left.

Shen Xiang frowned, "It's easy to solve the case, but the behind-the-scenes matter is beyond your power..."

Shen Yulin's left hand behind him shook slightly.
