The Founding of the Red Chamber

Lin Jing has a temper that is good to be a teacher, and apprentice Xiaosan loves to ask him for advice, and the two of them are in perfect harmony.Lin Jing would go to Jinzhou City when he was free, but it wasn't that Lin Jing took the initiative to go, it was the first time that Tu Xiaosan invited him to go.

Ever since Tu Xiaosan killed Xie Dujun and took power in Jinzhou City, he picked an excellent other courtyard, and this other courtyard should be cleaned up naturally and exquisitely.But it is still a bit inferior to Lin Jing's General's Mansion, but it has one advantage that Hanzhou City does not have.There is a warm soup in this other courtyard, Tu Xiaosan and Lin Jing said, "I started to know that there is a warm soup here, and I immediately left it for you. It was just that the garden was not cleaned up very well, and I asked them to clean it up a little bit. It caught my eye, so I invited you here."

Lin Jing and his disciple Xiaosan enjoyed the garden together, and said, "Third brother, I didn't say that although you are good at training soldiers, you are much worse at cleaning the garden."

Tu Xiaosan said, "Hey, to be honest, I don't see how it would be nice to add two more grass here and two flowers there. I also invited a famous master to repair it."

Lin Jing smiled, "If you specialize in art, you are better than me in combat."

Tu Xiaosan said, "No, Ah Jing, you are too modest."

"I have no choice but to fight one or two times. I don't like fighting and killing." What Lin Jing said was completely sincere. He would have to be exhausted, not to mention the matter of war, he was happy to ask him to come up with ideas behind his back.Going into battle in person is completely useless.

After talking, the two arrived at Wentang Garden. The ground in this garden is paved with nephrite. Lin Jing couldn't help saying, "It's so luxurious."

"That's right." Tu Xiaosan said, "Xiao Si, who has no experience, pried off two pieces of jade when he saw it, and I asked the craftsman to put it back."

Now that it's autumn, if Tu Xiaosan hadn't said that there was a warm soup garden, he wouldn't have planned to go out, since it's here, the two of them naturally want to enjoy the warm soup first.Lin Jingyuan thought, one person had one pool, and Tu Xiaosan said, "The two pools are far away, so we can talk together when we are together."

Lin Jing stayed with him.

Although the two of them often slept together, Lin Jing always slept with his inner clothes neat. Although Tu Xiaosan had the habit of sleeping naked since he was a child, Lin Jing was more particular about it, so he was told to change it.Now this dish of warm soup is the first time in his life to meet each other naked, Lin Jing is very generous.He has been served by people since he was a child. It is very normal for him to take off his clothes and soak in warm soup in front of people.But Tu Xiaosan was almost dazzled by Lin Jing's white jade skin, Tu Xiaosan said straight, "Oh, Ah Jing, you are too white." Then, he touched Lin Jing's buttocks, "White and smooth."

Lin Jing knocked off his hand and said, "What are you touching?"

Tu Xiaosan also quickly took off his clothes, followed Lin Jing with long hands and long legs, and said, "It's the first time I've seen such a white one, feel it is real or not."

Lin Jing said, "Don't touch it."

"I have to wipe your back for a while."

Lin Jing asked, "Why is there no big towel?"

"Do what?"

Lin Jing said, "Surround around."

Tu Xiaosan said frankly, "I have to take a bath, why should I surround myself with it? Go, get down, don't let it dry on top, and then freeze again." Tu Xiaosan helped Lin Jing go down into the pool first, and his slender arms were tender. On the shoulder, Tu Xiaosan didn't dare to use force, for fear of pinching it.Tu Xiaosan said, "You're almost twenty now, why are you still the same as before, feeling like you haven't grown up?"

"Fart!" Lin Jing stared, and said, "Whoever said I didn't grow up, I'm not short now. You think everyone is like you, stupid and big."

Tu Xiaosan immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly said, "Yes, I feel that I am so tall and stupid."

Lin Jing glared at Tu Xiaosan, "Height is not considered rich, so wear two feet of cloth more, you know? You are like this, thanks to the prosperity now, you will be left in a poor family, and you can't even afford clothes."

Tu Xiaosan suppressed a smile, "Yes."

Lin Jing drank the warm soup and sat in the pool made of warm jade. The slightly hot soup wrapped his whole body. Lin Jing closed his eyes and let out a sound that seemed to be sighing or moaning.Tu Xiaosan gasped for air, feeling as if a kitten had gently scratched his paw on the tip of his heart, not to mention how itchy it was.

Lin Jingdao, "I thought that Jinzhou City is a poor and remote place, but I didn't want to have such a place to enjoy."

"No matter how poor you are, there are still three or two wealthy landowners." Tu Xiaosan looked at Lin Jing, and when he saw him, his head was exposed, and his normally fair face was slightly suffocated by the heat, and it stood like a layer of rouge on white jade.Tu Xiaosan has worked hard in the market since he was a child. Although he has a clean personality, it might be better to say that his vision is too high, and ordinary people don't catch him.Seeing Lin Jing's appearance now, Tu Xiaosan slapped himself, thinking that he was really not a human being, how could Brother Ah Jing treat him, how could he have the idea of ​​insulting Brother Ah Jing like this.

Tu Xiaosan tried hard to calm his heart, and then he heard Lin Jing say, "I heard that the Zhu family is rich in the past, but I didn't expect that they are really rich."

"You guessed again that this is the other courtyard of the Zhu family."

"The Zhu family is the largest family in Jinzhou City. This family is not considered an outstanding family member. But there is one thing. I have been in Jinzhou City for a long time, and I have been guarding the salt business. Wealth." Lin Jing said, "The reason why Xie Dujun was able to hold so many private salt fields in the past was because he married Zhu's daughter. Zhu's family wanted to curry favor, and Xie Dujun wanted to get Yantian. benefit."

"I know that." Tu Xiaosan said, "It's the same. When I didn't buy Yantian, I didn't know how much profit there was. I also looked at Xie Dujun's accounts carefully. The big head is not with him yet. I was worried, the person who took the big head, now that he can't get it, is he willing to let it go like this?"

Lin Jing said, "The account books of private salt back then can be held back for a while."

"What about after that?" When talking about serious matters, Tu Xiaosan's thoughts faded away.

Lin Jingdao, "Third brother, you should have some understanding of the affairs in the court. How do the big bosses of the imperial capital do things? It's like the Xie family. The disciples, old officials, cronies, and clan members are all released. The place, since it is an eyeliner, can help to grasp the secrets of the place. In addition, it is an annual filial piety. Otherwise, with the salary and silver, how can everyone set up a big business one by one?"

Tu Xiaosan suddenly asked, "Ah Jing, is it the same in your family?"

"Of course my family is not like this. My elder brother is very upright. My family is mainly the property left by the ancestors. In our generation, the population is not large, so the expenses are enough." Lin Jing narrowed his eyes. , said with a straight face, "What do you mean by asking this, do you think my family is the family of traitors?"

"No, with your character, which family of treacherous ministers can be raised, I'll just ask casually. I have told you everything about my family." Tu Xiaosan said that he had confessed everything to Brother Ah Jing. , Tu Xiaosan asked, "Isn't that Xie family particularly difficult to deal with?"

"If you want to talk about the Xie family, Xie Guogong is just a bad old man. He failed to gain the upper hand against me in several confrontations in the imperial capital. Xie's family is difficult to deal with, not in the imperial capital, but outside the imperial capital." Lin Jing soaked for a while , probably feeling hot, he leaned his arms on the wall of the warm jade pool, and said, "Emperor De will marry Xie's daughter as queen in order to govern smoothly. Look down. Sometimes, what your Majesty says may not be as effective as what the old man told you."

"Then why not kill him?"

"It's easy to say, even if you kill him, his old friend will still be there."

"Kill the whole family."

"The imperial court calls this a party dispute. Once a party dispute forms, if you kill the leader, a new leader will emerge. If you kill the new leader, there will naturally be a new leader." Lin Jing said, "The killing is endless."

"How about that?"

"There are many methods. From the emperor's point of view, you can cultivate a new party, let the two parties fight, and there will always be times when one party can be defeated. Moreover, it is the thunderbolt method. As you said, third brother, kill the leader first. After that, don't talk about evidence or not, as long as there is a suspicion of forming a party, kill it immediately. If the important person dies, even if the power is still there, it will hurt the vitality, and it will not be a matter of one day to recover. These two things , the most important thing is that the emperor must have his own manpower, his own soldiers and horses, and his own power." Lin Jing took a silver jug ​​from the side, poured a cup of plum wine, and sipped it slowly.

Tu Xiaosan was thinking about Lin Jing's words, seeing the residual redness of plum wine on the corners of Lin Jing's lips, he couldn't move his eyes away.

Lin Jing looked over, and Tu Xiaosan stammered, "Listen, listen, listen to Ah Jing, this, this royal family is no different from us fools."

"Originally it was similar. Many royal families came from reckless people. Let's take the Taizu of the current dynasty as an example. The emperor Taizu was born in a beggar back then. He was a great talent and a general plan. He created a dynasty." Lin Jingdao, "Therefore, that sentence, princes and generals, Ning has kindness, which is actually very reasonable. Many families are actually the accumulation of generations, and when it comes to the ancestors of each family, no one is more noble than the other."

Tu Xiaosan wanted to know about his brother Ah Jing, and asked, "A Jing, what did your ancestor do?"

Lin Jingdao, "Students are originally a scholar. They study very well and were the number one scholar in the previous dynasty. In troubled times, they abandoned literature and went to martial arts."

Tu Xiaosan suddenly felt inferior, and said, "It's still the champion." His family is a pure farmer.

"Yeah, if you don't say that the descendants are not up to date, one generation is not as good as the next generation. When I was a scholar, I thought I could get the top case no matter what. I didn't expect that I missed it and only got the third place in the exam. Now the situation is like this. There is no need to mention it any more." Lin Jing was rather regretful.

Tu Xiaosan hurriedly said, "You just don't take the No. [-] Scholar exam. Your talent and learning are unmatched by many No. [-] Scholars."

Lin Jing smiled, "Third brother, look at me well, I am naturally good in everything."

"Anyone with long eyes can see your beauty." Tu Xiaosan said, "Come on, let me wipe your back."

"Help me massage again." Tu Xiaosan is very good at massage, Lin Jing is delicate, tired and tired, he likes to be massaged.In the past, Lin Jing had a maidservant, but afterward, Tu Xiaosan watched it a few times, learned it, and he would press Lin Jing from time to time.

"Success, success." Tu Xiaosan was really looking forward to it.

Tu Xiaosan "served" Lin Jing on this side, and felt that brother Ah Jing must have mistakenly cast a male fetus during reincarnation. Look, this slippery back is smoother than jade.Look, the skin is white and glowing.There are also these eyebrows and eyes, both men, I don't know how Brother Ah Jing got them, these wet eyes, these pale pink lips...

In short, after Tu Xiaosan and Lin Jing soaked in warm soup for a while, the effect was more than drinking two catties of deer blood.
