In the front yard, Lin Hai and Ning Chu stood side by side under a viburnum tree. The wind blew and the branches and leaves rustled. Ning Chu picked up a fallen leaf unhurriedly: "I don't know what Lin Yushi thinks."

Lin Hai snorted: "Ru Hai asks himself that he doesn't have that great ability, I'm afraid he will disappoint the prince." But Ning Chu laughed: "If Lin Yushi is not competent, then no one in the whole world can afford it."

Raising his eyebrows, Ning Chuyun said calmly: "I'm afraid Lin Yushi should and should not respond to this matter." With a sneer, Lin Hai had a plan in mind: "Everyone in the officialdom knows that I am terminally ill. The prince is a smart man and judges the situation. , I won’t risk the disapproval of the world and go my own way.”

Ning Chu's handsome eyes drooped slightly, and the corner of his mouth lightly hooked: "This king knew Lin Yushi would say this, but this king gave Lin Yushi two years to recuperate, I believe two years later..."

Without going on, Ning Chu glanced at Lin Hai with persuasive eyes: "Lin Yushi has no reason to refuse."

Two years is enough to change a lot of things, but Ning Chu said it so confidently that Lin Hai couldn't help raising his eyes and glanced at Ning Chu, who is as gentle as jade: "Two years is not long, but it is not short. , the lord is sure that there will be no accidents."

Ning Chu nodded without hesitation: "The king is only worried about Lin Yushi's body." The four eyes met, arousing Lin Hai's pride when he first seized the throne: "Okay."

Ning Chu smiled shallowly: "Since Lin Yushi is so happy, then this king is not a merciless person. This king knows that Li Zhifu and Lin Yushi are now in turmoil, and they reciprocate courtesy. The censor will get rid of this confidant's serious trouble."

"Since the prince is interested, it is better to be respectful than obedience." Lin Hai was neither humble nor overbearing, neither appreciated nor thanked, but made Ning Chu feel a little embarrassed, and laughed at himself: "This king was so bold and ruthless when he knew about Wang Yi last time. Even if this king doesn't intervene in this matter, Lin Yushi will be able to handle it easily, but..."

Ning Chu stated his purpose without hesitation: "This king just wants to sell Yushi a favor." Looking at Lin Hai with raised eyebrows, Ning Chu continued: "What does Yushi Lin think?"

"You don't get paid for nothing." Lin Hai also looked over, "The prince's favor..." "If the censor feels ashamed, then I will ask the censor for something."

Without waiting for Lin Hai to speak, Ning Chu pointed to the Qionghua tree in front of him: "I've come to Yangzhou twice, and this Qionghua tree makes people have a special liking. Unexpectedly, there are quite a few of them in Yushi's Mansion."

Lin Hai glanced at the shady tree canopy: "My wife and my daughter like it, so I planted a few trees in the house. The prince is from the north, so I am surprised that he likes this kind of delicate tree."

Ning Chu said shallowly: "I don't think that when the viburnum blooms, it is indifferent, refreshing, and not artificial. It looks like snow from a distance, but it looks like a flower when you look up close. It makes you feel like you can't stop it."

Lin Hai said sharply: "The lord is talking about people?" With a chuckle, Ning Chu neither admitted nor denied: "A person is like a flower, a flower is like a person, Lin Yushi, I want to ask you for a few viburnum flowers. I don’t know if the imperial censor is willing or not.”

Squinting his eyes, Lin Hai looked at Ning Chu, his face was as handsome as jade, and his eyes were as clear as ponds. If he didn't know his identity, Ning Chu in front of him would be Mr. Pianpianjia from some family, as gentle as jade and as elegant as bamboo.

But ever since he became Lin Hai, this king of Chu has left a deep impression on Yinzhen. He is scheming and exquisite. He has only been in Yangzhou for a month, but he has won over all the officials from top to bottom. When Yinzhen admired him , think of a person...

"Lin Yushi couldn't bear it." Ning Chu caught a leaf that had just fallen: "There are many fallen leaves in the palm garden, so I know it's autumn. Autumn in the south of the Yangtze River is late."

"Since the prince likes it, I am not reluctant to part with a few flower trees, but..." Lin Hai caressed the Qionghua tree on one side: "The weather in the capital is cold and rainy, while the south of the Yangtze River is warm and humid, and the habits of the trees are fixed. Ruhai is worried that they will not be able to adapt there. The climate of the world has failed the prince's wishes in vain."

"You don't need to worry about Lin Yushi, as long as you have the heart, I believe that there is nothing impossible in this world." Ning Chu pressed on step by step: "As long as Lin Yushi is willing."

Lin Hai turned his eyes, and he thought about it: "Okay, when the prince leaves the mansion, Ru Hai will definitely give it to him."

"The king thanked Lin Yushi first. Two years later, under the Qionghua tree in the palace of King Chu, this king will definitely invite Yushi to drink tea and enjoy the flowers."

"Okay, I hope the prince will not break his promise. Under the Qionghua tree, there is such a quiet sea waiting for the prince's good tea."

"Girl, that Mr. Chu is gone." Just as Daiyu was restless, Xueyan came over: "I just saw the master and the housekeeper escorting him out of the mansion."

"How is Daddy's expression?" Daiyu asked nervously, Xueyan thought for a while: "It's the same as usual, but I saw that Mr. Chu's subordinates seem to be hugging several trees."

"Shuya." Daiyu said suspiciously: "What do you want these for?" Xueyan shook her head: "I don't know either." Standing up, Daiyu said to Zijuan and Xueyan: "You wait here, I will Go see Daddy."

Outside the gate of the mansion, Ning Chu, who had just gotten into the sedan chair, heard Zimo whisper: "Master, these trees are so small, when will they grow up, this Lin Yushi is clearly making things difficult..."

Ning Chu leaned on the cushion, and said casually: "Stupid, you wouldn't think about the trick of stealing the beam and changing the post. This king told you that in the Chu Palace two years later, this king will have a banquet for Lin Yushi under the Qionghua tree. As for how to do it, you can figure it out."

Zimo muttered something in a low voice, but Ning Chu heard it again: "I want you to talk about what I like, no matter what you think, you must raise this tree well for me. Two years later, my lord To see a tree full of viburnum flowers."

"Yes." Zimo replied respectfully, Ning Chu snorted softly, lifted the curtain and glanced at the gate of the Lin Mansion: "Two years..."

When Daiyu went in, she saw Lin Hai standing by the desk, seeming to be flipping through something, her thin face expressionless.

"Yu'er, why are you here?" Seeing Daiyu, Lin Hai raised his head: "What's the matter?" Lin Hai's calm expression soothed Daiyu's originally uneasy thoughts: "I'm here to see Daddy."

With a faint smile, Lin Hai said: "Yu'er, remember, you are very happy and put everything on your face, so if you say something insincere in the future, you have to look into the other person's eyes."

Daiyu's face blushed uncontrollably: "Daddy..." Coming over, Lin Hai said slowly, "What's the matter, tell me." After hesitating for a while, Daiyu whispered: "I listen to the maid Said, just now that King Chu came to look for daddy again."

"Looking for trouble?" Lin Hai said teasingly: "The soldiers come to cover up the water and the soil. If he is looking for trouble, I don't worry about it." "Then what is Dad worried about?" Daiyu looked at Lin Hai with clear eyes, without concealing it concerns.

Smiling, Lin Hai patted Daiyu: "Silly boy, don't worry, Daddy is here for everything, but Daddy wants to ask you." After a pause, Lin Hai went on to say, "How is your cousin in Jia's mansion like? "

Daiyu looked up at Lin Hai unexpectedly: "Why did Daddy suddenly ask this?" Lin Hai said calmly, "The King of Chu mentioned him just now, so I wanted to ask."

Daiyu lowered her head, thought for a while, and then said: "I don't know what to say about him, he treats all the people in the mansion, whether it's the maids or our sisters, he is very good."

With a snort, Lin Hai didn't make a sound, his sharp eyes glanced at Daiyu's slightly low bun inadvertently, and after a while he said: "I see, it seems that the mansion over there is doting on your cousin, At first glance, it looks like a young master who has never experienced the world and doesn't understand the inconsistency of the world..."

Without going on, Lin Hai said meaningfully: "I would like to see you when I come to Beijing later."

The father and daughter talked for a while. Seeing that Lin Hai looked calm and never mentioned Ning Chu, Daiyu was relieved. It seemed that Ning Chu did not tell Lin Hai about the hairpin.

Zhu Ling's knock on the door interrupted the two of them, and when they looked out, Daiyu said in surprise: "It's raining." Zhu Ling flicked the rain on his body: "Yeah, this rain doesn't seem to be will be small."

Waving his hand, Lin Hai said to Daiyu: "Yu'er, you go back first, Zijing and I have something to talk about."

Sending Daiyu away, Zhu Ling said to Lin Hai: "My lord, according to the example of previous years, this rain may..."

Lin Hai opened the window and looked at the continuous rain outside. He remembered that when he was dealing with government affairs in his previous life, floods often occurred in the south of the Yangtze River at this time of year. For the record, I'm afraid...

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and in the afternoon, the rain curtain had already covered his eyes, Zhu Ling held an umbrella and stood with Lin Hai at the door: "My lord, this rain is coming fast, and the salt field outside the city may be flooded again. Lin Hai silently glanced at the misty rain curtain, turned around and walked towards the study, Zhu Ling gave some instructions, and then followed.

In the study, Zhu Ling spread out the map of the Yangzhou Salt Field on the desk, and pointed out: "My lord, if there is a lot of rainfall in previous years, the flood will be released in these places."

Lin Hai looked at it silently for a while, then stretched out his finger and pointed to one place: "Why not here, the terrain here is flat, sitting on the central axis, if the water is not strong, just destroy this place and everything will be safe."

Zhu Ling hesitated for a moment: "Actually, my lord had this idea before, but if the flood is released here, the yards and fields within five miles downstream will be destroyed, and the magistrate Li lord has a manor within this place, and there are several others. They are all famous figures in Yangzhou City, so this matter will be left alone."

Nodding his head, Lin Hai said slowly: "It's better to destroy the people's houses than to splash the walls of the nobles, no matter which dynasty it is, it's the same." Zhu Ling echoed: "In his position, sometimes he can't help himself, my lord , Do you want me to arrange it in advance, so as not to be delayed when things come to an end."

"No need." Lin Hai squinted his eyes and pointed to the dot on the map: "If it must be destroyed, then this place." "My lord." Zhu Ling looked at Lin Hai puzzled: "This place is..."

"I know." Lin Hai said quietly: "I want to see who is blocking it."
