Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

As soon as Jia Yucun's front legs were tied away, Lin Ruhai already knew the details.

This is not to say that Lin Ruhai is so smart that he can make clever calculations, but it is related to his position.

Before he failed to win the lottery, he was already working for the former emperor and the current emperor.

It is said that the emperor has great kindness and is particularly tolerant nowadays, but these words are just a glorification of his virtues.

Lin Ruhai's father had no achievements to boast about, so he enjoyed an extra generation of titles. It would be ridiculous to just say that the emperor's favor was great.

Looking at the founders of the country, all of them have begun to decline. Those who can really get things done are feared by the royal family. The remaining people are almost losing their minds in order to continue to enjoy wealth and wealth.

The ancestors of the Lin family ascended to the throne, but did not move to Xinjing with the imperial court because of other reasons.

When doing royal affairs, he is more interested in making profits. If he doesn't make achievements, how can he get another title?

This is about the difference between Xinjing and old Beijing.

Jinling, the old capital, was the old capital of the Kaiyuan Dynasty. However, after the expansion of the territory, in order to resist the northern border invasion and alert future emperors, the emperor at that time moved the court to Xinjing.

However, as the companion capital, Jiujing still retains a government team to supervise the government affairs in the south to avoid problems caused by long-term inadequate supervision.

Today, the Jinling Zhen family controls this small court.

But the emperor will definitely not only have the Zhen family as his confidant. There is also the Lin family supervising in the dark.

Originally, Lin Ruhai's father was in charge of this position. He wanted to clear his son's name and become an ordinary person, but he couldn't change what the royal family thought.

When Lin Ruhai was young, he was taken as a hostage and worked alone with the Emperor in Kyoto.

Later, he was finally exposed to the sun and became a civil servant of the Qing Dynasty. However, the emperor liked his talent very much, so he arranged for him to enter the Inspectorate and become a doctor of Lantai Temple.

Because Lin Ruhai had a keen eye, he could see that the new emperor was more interested in inheriting power when he was young, so he had already made friends with him. Therefore, after the new emperor took office, he was still used in the same way.

If Lin Ruhai was an ambitious person, the new emperor would not dare to use him in this way, but he had the character of a hermit with "extreme knowledge and noble character".

Therefore, Lin Ruhai, who originally wanted to be ruined, was promoted to an official position. Now he uses Yangzhou as a springboard to supervise the entire "little southern court".

This is also the dangerous part of Lin Ruhai's position. He not only has to control the fat and oily salt merchants, but also investigates corruption in the entire officialdom.

Therefore, the local bosses who had already received the letter regarded him as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.

The two sides went back and forth, but in the end Lin Ruhai was the superior one, and he did not prevent them from jumping over the wall and resorting to dirty tricks. In the end, the original owner Jia Min lost his life.

In the original work, Lin Ruhai, who lost his legitimate wife, couldn't think about it for a moment, so he entrusted Daiyu to Jia Mu to take care of her, but he tried his best to fight the evil forces to the end.

But it was because we were living in the last days, and the court was corrupted, not because of a few people, but because God did not fake people, and it was completely corrupt from the root.

Lin Ruhai's official position is a mobile position with little influence and power, which cannot completely solve local hidden dangers. Moreover, he had to seek help from the local government when it came to work. There were many people talking, and many of his things were already known to everyone before he even started taking action.

Fortunately, Jia Min was poisoned this time. In the name of compassion, the emperor sent an imperial doctor with tokens and secret guards to help secretly. Only then could Lin Ruhai know the details when Jia Yucun was captured.

"Sir, what should we do?"

The little secret guard leader sharpened his knife and asked excitedly. After they arrived, they shaved off the spies in the Lin Mansion, which made the group shrink their heads in fear. Now that I see a fish taking the bait, I can’t express my excitement.

Lin Ruhai had long been full of anger and had nowhere to vent. His wife suffered on his behalf, and now she was still lying down unable to get up. If not to destroy the majesty of those people, they still thought that Lin Ruhai was made of mud!

"Follow the clues and kill first."

Lin Ruhai decided to change her strategy and no longer wait for the emperor to make a decision by collecting good evidence. If the carrion is not cut, more places will be infected. Anyway, he doesn't want to be an official anymore. At worst, he will resign and return to his hometown, so that he can retire early.

Lin Ruhai had a plan, and the several secret guard leaders looked at each other. What they liked most was to kill first and then settle the scores. Before, they all felt aggrieved when watching Lin Ruhai handle cases, but now they feel that they have the right temper.

So they immediately went out and formed small teams, keeping an eye on Jia Yu Village.

Lao Jia is in another situation here.

Jia Yucun was originally a loyal and patriotic man, but when he was afraid of poverty, he couldn't help but fall into the mire of corruption.

But although he was a little greedy, he was unwilling to join in the big corruption at the top.

Unexpectedly, the emperor is not discerning, and a "good official" like him will lose his official position. Therefore, feeling unsatisfied, his mood turned 180 degrees and turned dark.

Of course, the crime is not complete yet, so when the "kidnappers" ask him about the Lin family's situation, although he will beg for mercy, he will say nothing about the Lin family's movements.

"Drink! He is actually a tough guy!"

The first brother of the kidnapper rolled down the covering on his face and slashed the knife in front of Jia Yucun with a bang, making him tremble.

The kidnapper's second brother, who was sitting far away, also lowered his mask and looked at Jia Yucun calmly.

When the first kidnapper pulled off the mask, Jia Yucun didn't think anything of it. When the second kid pulled off the mask, he was suddenly startled and almost jumped up.

"Brother Yucun, you're fine!"

The kidnapper's second brother saw that Jia Yucun had recognized him, so he smiled. He is none other than Zhao Shihong, Jia Yucun's former boss, the governor of Jinling.

Jia Yucun looked at the kidnapper brother again and immediately felt that he looked familiar.

"Hahaha, if it weren't for Brother Yucun, I still couldn't touch Brother Hu. I also felt that it was a pity for Brother Yucun, so I invited Brother Hu to go there in person."

Jia Yucun's mind started to spin crazily, wondering which of his immediate bosses had the surname Hu. When he thought of one, his heart couldn't help but become silent, and he became completely quiet.

"Yes, that's the person you were thinking of. Not only that, the Minister of Civil Affairs in the capital is also a relative of their family."

Zhao Shihong laughed and said, "I feel sorry for Brother Yucun. Who told you to mess around and still not see the true Buddha? Hahahaha."

Jia Yucun complained in his heart. He knew that that man was not only related to the official family, but also to the Wang family of Dongping County. If his Shangfeng family hadn't been so powerful, he wouldn't have been able to pretend to be calm after losing his official position. Come light.

Now that he himself has fallen into the hands of his opponent, not only has he failed to take revenge, but he may even lose his life. Jia Yucun, whose backbone was suddenly broken, no longer has any ambitions. He only bowed his head and told all he knew about the situation in the Lin Mansion. , just to survive.
