The younger brother of the Red Chamber is a fighter

When Qin Zhong quietly arrived in Fujian, the rumors in the capital also intensified.This is a serious matter, and the sage ordered the Secretary to investigate the whole story within ten days. At the same time, King Zhongshun and King Changping were announced to enter the palace and reprimanded.

All of a sudden, the situation in Kyoto changed suddenly, and people were uneasy.

In the evening of this day, Lin Mingyu had just returned home and got off his horse when a boy rushed over by the side of the road and said, "Uncle Lin, a master asked me to bring this to you."

Lin Mingyu sized up the little boy who delivered the letter, and saw that he looked embarrassed, half innocent, dressed like a child from an ordinary family, and was expected to be entrusted by playing around, so he nodded.Lin Da stepped forward and asked, "Little baby, who did you deliver the letter for?"

The little boy said: "I don't know the master's name, and I haven't seen it on this street before. He just asked me to give it to Uncle Lin, saying that the uncle will understand after reading the letter. There is nothing else to say."

Seeing that he spoke clearly, Lin Da knew that he really didn't know anything. After asking Lin Mingyu for instructions, Fang took what was in his hand, grabbed some money from his sleeve, and handed it to Xiaotong: "Take it to buy snacks. Bar."

The little boy thanked him with a smile, and walked away bouncing around.

After entering the mansion, Lin Mingyu unfolded the note and saw a line of words written on it. After reading it, his expression sank, he went back to his room, changed his clothes, and went outside again.

He hurried all the way to Tu Lingguang's private house, and waited inside for half an hour, when Lin Mingyu heard footsteps.

He came out from the house and saw Tu Lingguang opened the curtain and stepped in.

"What's urgent? I just received your message, and I just left the palace gate."

Lin Mingyu flicked the snowflakes off his shoulders for him, and pulled him to sit on the kang of the warm pavilion. Fang took out the note from his arms: "Look at what this is, someone asked Xiaotong to forward it to me just now."

Tu Lingguang looked at it and said, "Who will inform you? Who do you think of?"

Lin Mingyu looked at the words "Jia Baoyu palmed Tu Shuo's private seal, Shunchang blamed Chang's" on the paper, and wondered who would agree with the identity of the messenger.This person is so well-informed, he must have extraordinary strength in Fujian, and this news is beneficial to them, at least this person is not an enemy.

Could it be the message from the Haimeng?But there are many ways for the Haimeng to send messages, so why hide like this?

"Since we can't figure it out, let's wait. Let's see what this person's purpose is. Whether it's an enemy or a friend, he will always show his feet." Tu Lingguang comforted.

Lin Mingyu nodded, and the two discussed the information. After a long time, Lin Mingyu said, "I'm leaving. I'll come to you immediately when I get the letter. My father doesn't know about it yet. I have to go back and look for him."

Tu Lingguang said: "If there is any embarrassment, don't do it, let me do it."

Lin Mingyu smiled: "Some things have to be faced by oneself, don't worry, I'm not a person who tries to be brave."

Tu Lingguang took his hand, squeezed it in the palm of his hand, touched his neck, and said, "I know."

The case of the robbery of Liangying's gold and silver is still inconclusive, and the Lin family welcomes a guest.

In Lin Mingyu's outer study, Zhou Zhaoqing and Wu Dalang stood in front of Lin Mingyu, smiled and saluted.

Lin Mingyu was joyful in her heart, and hurriedly helped her up with a smile, "Get up quickly, in this cold weather, I never thought that the two of you would come together, the journey will be smooth? How is our school? How is the Haimeng?"

Lin Mingyu asked repeatedly, and at the same time invited the two of them to sit aside and served hot tea and snacks.

Wu Dalang looked at Zhou Zhaoqing with a silly smile.

Zhou Zhaoqing said: "Everything is safe on the road. There are people watching our family in Fujian city, but Mr. Song is taking care of us. We also hid the others and came out. There are father and son guarding the school, and the homework is going smoothly. These days, Hai There is a lot of turmoil in the business world. Although the business of the Haimeng has been affected, it does not matter. Song Gong and Huang Gong felt that it was not the time to make an eye-catching, so they discussed with us to suspend part of the seagoing ships and give up part of the benefits. Although it is a pity, it is also It’s just a stopgap measure. Today, Changshun’s shipping business is the best, and Chang’s takes the opportunity to expand, and it’s on par with Changshun.”

"Why did the Chang family change? The first letter said that Changshun wanted to form an alliance with the Chang family several times, and Chang's behavior was ambiguous for a hundred years. Why did he change so quickly?"

Lin Mingyu's heart skipped a beat, thinking of the letter he received a few days ago.

Not to mention the changes of the Chang family, at this time, it is unreasonable for the Changshun Palace to act so ostentatiously. If it is not too greedy, it has other plans.

Besides, in the current shipping situation, the road ahead of Changshun is shrouded in clouds and fog. The Chang family and the Qian family have always been weak. The Haimeng seems to have the best chance to take advantage of the chaos to swallow up the other forces. If they fight at this time, it is uncertain. You can win the world by sea, but anyone who is too radical will not give up this opportunity.If this is really done, then the Haimeng will be so powerful that it will immediately come into the sight of the court, and now it is within the ten-day deadline to solve the case!

Lin Mingyu couldn't help feeling chills down his back, and he was thankful that the two old men had fierce eyes and acted cautiously.

Thinking deeply about the intention of the messenger, Lin Mingyu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.He also said that he is a friend rather than an enemy, even if this person has three points of good intentions, there is seven points of malice hidden behind him.

If he didn't know that Tu Shuo was going to frame Chang's, maybe he wouldn't dare to join in the snatching of shipping routes. After all, Chang's is also a feared force.Now that he knew that Chang's family had offended the Zhongshun Palace and was about to collapse, he wanted to take a bite of a piece of fat in his mouth?

Chang theory, he can not let go of this opportunity.This is the viciousness of the messenger.Now, the power behind Chang's is obviously not simple. If his guess is correct, Chang's change is a bureau, and it may be aimed at the entire Fujian shipping force.

Who is this guy?

Lin Mingyu's complexion couldn't help but sink.Such a big deal, who else could it be besides that one?

After talking with Wu Dalang, Zhou Zhaoqing and his wife for nearly two hours, Lin Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I don't have time to clean up the dust for you two today, so I'll have a good drink tomorrow and invite Wen Ning as well." Come here. You must be very tired from the long journey, so go down and have a good night's rest."

Zhou and Wu thanked each other hurriedly, and followed Lin Da to the guest room.

Lin Mingyu rubbed ink and wrote again, and recorded all the guesses and related information just now, and asked Lin Da to send them to Tu Lingguang himself, while he went to Lin Hai's study.If the old man really became suspicious, he must let Lin Hai know as soon as possible, and deal with it early, so as not to be implicated.

The next day, Lin Mingyu really invited Song Wenning to come, and set up a drink in Xinghuayuan at night.Song Wenning didn't return to Fujian for many times, although he could often receive information from Fujian, after all, Zhou Zhaoqing and Wu Dalang knew a lot, so he had a lot to say, chatting and laughing at the table, it was very lively.

Zhou Zhaoqingyuan lived in the capital for a few days and knew a few people. During the daytime when Lin Mingyu went out, he also took Wu Dalang out to make his own arrangements. He came to the capital not only to deliver news for Lin Mingyu, but also to care about more than ten people. An old story of the year.

He is always unwilling to give up, and every time he gets a chance to win, he will definitely search for it.Tea houses and restaurants are the most well-informed places, because he has turned to tea houses and restaurants to look for them these days.

It just so happened that on this day, when we arrived at Chengdong Yuelai Restaurant, Zhou Zhaoqing and Wu Dalang went into the building as usual and chose an inconspicuous place in the lobby to sit down, ordered some tea and water, and then quietly listened to the guests in the restaurant.

As the ten-day limit approached, there was not much news in Kyoto, and discussions about the robbery case could be heard everywhere.Hearing all these guesses, Zhou Zhaoqing felt discouraged.Wu Dalang knew that his heart was uneasy, and he was most clumsy, so he only comforted him and said: "It happened more than ten years ago, and there are some things that are difficult to find. We have been waiting for these years. Let's search slowly, and we will never be afraid of that thief." can escape."

Zhou Zhaoqing was tormented in his heart, but he was able to come to the capital occasionally in the past ten years, and almost always returned without success. He was also used to it, because he only nodded, took a sip of tea, and then put down his cup and went back to Lin's mansion with Wu Dalang.Their affairs are also done, and it is time to prepare to return to Fujian.

"Chen Qin, come here." Someone behind him called to this side.

Zhou Zhaoqing's hand holding the teacup stiffened, and he straightened up unconsciously, only to see a waiter at the table in front of him respond and walk towards him.

"Guard Su, what are your orders?"

The voice said: "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Zhou Zhaoqing turned his head suddenly, and saw a chubby side face, said something to the guy first, the guy nodded, answered him, and followed his footsteps to the back hall.

Zhou Zhaoqing hurriedly stood up and followed.Wu Dalang didn't know why, so he could only follow behind.

After entering the back hall, I saw Zhou Zhaoqing walking along the aisle to the corridor on the left. Just as Wu Dalang was about to stop him, he saw a guy jump out in front of him and stopped Zhou Zhaoqing. Please exit."

Zhou Zhaoqing frowned, seeing that the two had disappeared just now, he felt anxious, so he didn't answer and walked around this person and wanted to leave.

Seeing this, the guy didn't want to, so he stopped him in a hurry.

Unavoidably, the voice became a bit noisy for a while, Wu Dalang stepped forward hurriedly, and stood beside Zhou Zhaoqing, clenched his hands into fists, just as he was about to swing it out, another person came out in front, and stopped him, saying, "What's the noise?"

Wu Dalang felt that Zhou Zhaoqing was shaking all over, and his body couldn't stop trembling. He hurriedly approached him, and stretched out his hand to hold his hand.

The man had already come to the front and asked the guy: "What happened? What happened to this guest?"

After the clerk explained, Zhou Zhaoqing didn't seem to hear it at all, and said abruptly, "What's your surname, sir?"

Everyone paused, the fat man looked at Zhou Zhaoqing and Wu Dalang, and said politely: "My surname is Su, and I'm the manager here. What's the matter with the two guest officers? This is the back hall, so we can't let the guests The officer entered."

Wu Dalang has been paying attention to Zhou Zhaoqing's movements, feeling his muscles tense for a moment, fearing that something will go wrong, one side of his body naturally blocks in front of him, and said with a naive smile: "It turns out that it's Manager Su, my brother had a stomachache, really. I was in pain, and I was not familiar with your store. I was looking for a toilet, so I entered the back hall by mistake. My brother can't speak, so I was stopped by the little brother of your store, and I misunderstood him. Please show me the way , to make it convenient for my brother."

Su Furu looked at the guest officer, saw that his eyes were red, his cheeks were also flushed, he lowered his head to look at the soles of his feet, his body trembled undetectably, as if he was in great pain, although he doubted it in his heart, but the matter at hand was true. It was urgent and there was no delay, so I trusted them temporarily, and said with a smile: "That's how it is. The clean room of the small shop is not left in the inner hall, and you two will withdraw. I will order the clerk to guide the two of you."

Wu Dalang hurriedly thanked him, held Zhou Zhaoqing's arm in his hand, and forced him out.

At the corner of the back hall, the eaves of the porch are clearly shining with the light of a knife, obviously it is not a good place to go, Qing'er has no martial arts, and in this situation, he may suffer a disadvantage.

Regardless of Zhou Zhaoqing's resistance, Wu Dalang pulled him out of the restaurant all the way, thanked the guy who led the way, and rewarded him with a few copper coins.
