[Red House] Raiders of life

Li Huaiyi, as the head of the palace, in his current position, there are few people who can make him so attentive, not even the few princes in the palace have such an honor.

As soon as Lin Ningfu entered Beijing, Li Huaiyi came to pick him up and sent him back in person.This posture attracted the attention of many people. Lin Ning didn't know about the people outside. He only said that everyone in Jia's mansion, from top to bottom, came to greet him.

All in all, all in all, it is to use various methods to find out the reason why Lin Ning is treated like this, and especially to find out how close the relationship between the Lin family and the emperor is.

The next day, Lin Ning complained of illness and thanked the guests behind closed doors.

Quadrangle.

Gifts from all parties piled up in the house, and Lily and Ziwan matched each other to tidy up and register everything.I was stunned when I saw the things sent by the palace, ginseng with the thickness of a baby's arm, a red coral bonsai half a person's height, a paperweight of suet jade, and a collection of calligraphy and paintings by Ming masters, especially rice paper, Hui ink, Duan inkstone The list goes on and on.

Seriously, I have never seen such a gift, even a reward, there is no such thing, right?There are a variety of varieties and a dazzling array, whether it is suitable or not, everything is available.And there are a lot of them, besides the big ornaments, there are also two big boxes.Whenever the emperor rewards his subjects, most of them are just for show, picking one or two things, and this...

Lily was a little undecided, and asked Lin Ning, "My lord, what should I do with these things that the emperor rewarded me?"

Lin Ning's eyes flickered slightly, "Order to set up a booklet for registration, and tidy up an extra room and put it in."

Lily responded, and called someone to come in and carry the things in carefully.Lin Ning asked everyone not to disturb him, and went alone to the study room that Daiyu had specially cleaned up for him.

The furnishings in the study, including the placement of the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, followed his habits.

Lin Ning studied the ink, picked up the pen, spread out the rice paper, and let it fall slowly.

Xuan.

Hope comfortable.

Tu Yuanhai mentioned the meaning of the name Xuan, but he didn't mention Wang Shu.According to Tu Yuanhai's words, he also took the name of the table.

Wang Shu, Wang Shu.

Xuan contains "day", and Wangshu, everyone knows that it refers to "month", which together form the word "Ming".Nowadays, the names of the princes in this generation all follow "Ming".

Lin Ning's hand trembled, was it a coincidence?Is he thinking too much?still……

But how can you not think too much?Perhaps at the beginning Lin Ning did have such a wild mind, thinking that Tu Yuanhai and Lin Ruhai had an affair, and he had known them for several lifetimes, and they were straight men who couldn't be more straight.

In particular, even if the two really have a romantic relationship, it is impossible for Tu Yuanhai to give up the dragon chair...

There are still so many rewards without any name and Li Huaiyi's respectful gesture towards him.

When he came out of the palace, he felt that Tu Yuanhai treated him differently. He asked the old man who came with the Lin family, Lin Huai.He is also one of Lin Ruhai's most trusted people.This time, because Lin Ning was going to Beijing, Lin Ruhai specially sent Lin Huai out, and asked him to go to Beijing with Qiuming, following Lin Ning's arrangement.

Lin Huai said that it was sunny before and after his birth, and it never rained, let alone heavy rain.If we talk about heavy rain, there was a series of heavy rains seven or eight days before he was born. At that time, it was said that it happened once in a hundred years, and disasters occurred in many places.So Lin Huai remembered it quite clearly.

And seven days before his birthday, the fifth prince who "died early" in the palace happened to be born.

Think again about Lin Ruhai's upbringing for him over the years.Lin Ruhai really loves him, treats him like a son, punishes him as he deserves, beats him as he deserves.May I ask if he is really the prince, how dare Lin Ruhai, as a subject, beat the prince?

But...but...

Even if he was punished to kneel, Lin Ruhai never made him kneel in the ancestral hall.He has never practiced this most common of the Lin family's family laws.Even when beating him, he has always been measured. Every time he makes a move, he always has a great posture, but when he hits him, he is not heavy.It can be said that there is loud thunder and little rain.

also.When he was young, Lin Ruhai let him linger in the growing environment of the government. He took him with him in most of the official affairs, and always asked him what he thought, and guided him kindly.

Because of the knowledge and memory of several lifetimes, Lin Ning was smart since he was a child, and he was always the first in his homework. of.He is known as a child prodigy and a gifted scholar in Jiangnan.

Lin Ruhai didn't feel very happy.But this kind of joy is not because he is afraid of "hurting Zhongyong", nor is he afraid that his reputation will bring him pressure and negative influence.Lin Ning still remembered that he had asked back then.

Lin Ruhai said that his vision should not be here.Compared with these, he should look at the people more.Observe the suffering of the people's livelihood and mourn the hardship of the people's livelihood.

Furthermore, one should have a broad mind and be tolerant of all rivers and rivers, and tolerance is great.If you listen to one side, you will be dark, and if you listen to both, you will be bright.

At that time, Lin Ning mistakenly thought that Lin Ruhai had great expectations of him and wanted him to be a famous minister of a generation, but he didn't think much about it, but from this point of view, these are more in line with the emperor's education standards.

Lin Ning sat down on the chair, clutching the armrest tightly, right?isn't it?

The answer was almost ready to come out, but Lin Ning couldn't believe it.Although this can better explain Brother Lin's wish, and with this identity, it is easier for him to complete the task.But he didn't know about this when he first time traveled. He always regarded Lin Ruhai as his father, and he had already developed a father-son affection for Lin Ruhai for so many years. Now he suddenly told him that he was not Lin Ruhai's child?

Lin Ning didn't know how to face it.He has indeed gone through several lives, and it is true that his feelings will be drawn in every life, but this does not mean that he has become cold-blooded, and it does not mean that he will not generate new feelings.

He is still a living, flesh-and-blood person with his own emotional thoughts!

There was a knock on the door, "Master, the eldest girl sent someone to ask, can you have dinner with them today?"

Lin Ning took a deep breath, and at the moment Ding Wei's voice came, he remembered the encounter with Ding Wei and Ding Wu in the suburbs that year.Coincidence, what a coincidence.Moreover, there are many people in the world who are arrogant, and the grace of saving lives can be paid for by a life, but few people can put down their bodies to be guards.

And Ding Wei and Ding Wu didn't have the slightest bit of gangster spirit in him.Lin Ning joked with them more than once about this, laughing that he really didn't understand the Jianghu people, and had many misunderstandings about them before.

But now after knowing the result, looking back again, is it still a misunderstanding?

Lin Ning had a flash of thought, opened his mouth, and called directly, "Come in."

Ding Wei pushed the door open and walked into Lin Ning, he couldn't help but see several people on the rice paper, his complexion turned pale instantly, and he stared at Lin Ning with wide-eyed eyes.

Lin Ning has been observing him. There are only a few words on the paper, Xuan, Wangshu, Sun, Moon, and finally a Ming character.

Written out of order, out of order.Ordinary people see it, they just think it's him writing nonsense, and they can't think of where to go.Only those who know the inside story will be different.Ding Wei's reaction shocked Lin Ning.Sure enough... sure enough!

"Ding Wei, what is your position in Jinyiwei?"

Ding Wei's expression froze, and he directly asked him what his position was, without even probing, so it can be seen...

Ding Wei thumped and knelt down, "Ding Wei, a thousand households under the Fusi of Jinyiwei North Town, has seen the Fifth Prince."

Fifth Prince, Fifth Prince...

Although he already had the answer in his heart, Lin Ning was still very shocked when Ding Wei gave such a big gift and called him the "fifth prince". His lips trembled, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.Originally, he wanted to make a final test on Ding Wei, but when the result was bloody in front of him, he didn't know how to accept it.

Lin Ning didn't make a sound, Ding Wei didn't dare to stand up, even dared not move his body.

Lin Ning sneered, "Dignified Jinyiwei Qianhu came to be my bodyguard, it is really a shame."

"It is an honor to serve His Highness."

Lin Ning's complexion changed, "Then, in this way, when I met you, it was also a play that was arranged long ago?"

"Yes!"

Ding Wei didn't hesitate, Lin Ning was even more surprised, "Those injuries I saw with my own eyes can't be faked. So, in order to come to my side, in order not to make me suspicious, I actually risked myself and even my life." Are you here to gamble? Do you know how dangerous you were at that time? What if... what if you die?"

"My subordinate entered the Jinyiwei camp at the age of three. He was trained and cultivated, and he can survive that injury. If the subordinate can't survive it, someone will naturally use other methods to replace the subordinate."

In this way, life and death are not taken seriously, so Lin Ning can imagine what kind of environment they survived in, what kind of training and education they received.But the more I knew, the more blocked my heart became.It's not that he has a lot of sympathy, it's just that if it's someone else.But in the past five years, even though they were guards in name, how did Lin Ning treat them as guards, and they fought and laughed together with each other.

but……

Jinyiwei is a capable but cruel place.Yang Sheng established Jinyiwei, and this force was also in his hands in the early years.But these years, Yang Sheng retired, and Jin Yiwei returned to the hands of the emperor.However, judging from the time when Ding Wei and Ding Wu approached him, Tu Yuanhai took control of this force earlier than it appeared on the surface.Presumably, when Yang Sheng was still the commander of Jinyiwei, Tu Yuanhai secretly pushed him away step by step.Otherwise, Yang Sheng wouldn't be unaware.

Lin Ning sighed, "He put you by my side? Who are his people by my side?"

Who he is, the two of them know each other well.Hearing this, Ding Wei was even more shocked, and said anxiously: "Your Highness has misunderstood. The emperor arranged us to be with His Highness to ensure His Highness's safety. The Emperor said that since you follow His Highness, you will be His Highness's people by birth. Death is His Highness's ghost. Therefore, both subordinates and Ding Wu belong to His Highness, not the Emperor."

Lin Ning was taken aback, looked at him for a while, and said, "You mean, you haven't reported anything about me to him in these years?"

"What the emperor wants to know, of course he can get it from Lin Ruhai. The emperor said that the responsibility of the subordinates and Ding Wu is only for His Highness's safety, and everything else is at His Highness's discretion. Unless there are special circumstances, there is no need to contact him."

Lin Ning immediately grasped the point, "Special circumstances? So is what happened today a special circumstance?"

The special situation can be his life or death, or he knows the truth.

"My subordinate said that both my subordinate and Ding Wu only listen to His Highness. If His Highness wants today's incident to be a special situation, then it is a special situation. If His Highness does not want to, then it is not."

Uh... there is really a principle.

Lin Ning was silent for a while. If he defined it as a "special situation", it would be tantamount to accepting this identity and having a showdown with Tu Yuanhai.

If he defines it as "non-special circumstances", it means that he chooses to maintain the state of Lin Ruhai's eldest son.

Is he going to accept this identity?It seems that no matter how you look at it, it is better to accept it, and there is no possibility for him not to accept it.It's just a matter of time to accept it.

Lin Ning sighed, stared at Ding Wei and said, "Okay. Then let me say that what happened today is a special case."

Ding Wei replied without any hesitation, "Yes!"

Lin Ning said again: "Tell him that I was stimulated when I found out about this incident, and went to Xishan for a horse race."
