The Lin family of the Red Chamber has a son

When I got out of the prison of the Ministry of punishment, it was the time when the moon was in the sky.Although it is not yet midsummer at this time, the vegetation is already verdant and the flowers are blooming like brocade.The evening breeze came slowly, bringing with it a scent of green grass, which immediately made Lin Yan feel that the feeling of oppression in the cell just now was swept away.

Looking up at the sky, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and a few slender clouds are floating across the sky.It's not close from the Ministry of Justice to Lin's Mansion, and the carriage has already been waiting outside.Now there is also an undercurrent in Beijing, besides the carriage is not only Chang Le'er who is auspicious and happy, but also seven or eight skilled long-term attendants.

Seeing Lin Yan come out, Ji Xiang has already opened the curtain.Lin Yan looked up, and there was already a person sitting inside, with a jade crown, hair tied, eyebrows slightly raised, and a sloppy smile on his face. It wasn't Situ Lan, but who?

Reaching out to pull Lin Yan into the car, the curtain outside was lowered. Situ Lan let out a long breath, leaned on Lin Yan, and complained, "I'm exhausted."

Lin Yan looked at him sideways, his face was indeed full of exhaustion.With the moonlight coming in from the gauze curtain, one can also see that those beautiful peach blossom eyes are not as clear and sharp as they used to be.He stretched out his hand and patted Situ Lan's shoulder, "It's been hard these days, and it's still far away from the mansion, so let's take a squint first."

Since Situ Lan was in the car at this time, naturally he would not go back to the palace.The two of them have been busy with the Jinling flood case for many days. Lin Yan can say here that among the officials involved in the case, several serious offenders who should be escorted to Beijing are already in Beijing, and the rest are in Jinling to await trial.Situ Lan was even more busy. The case of the Zhen family brought out not only the two kings, Cheng Jing, but also Wang Zhong, who had been secretly colluding with military officials in Ping'an Prefecture and other places in the past few years, as well as children of aristocratic families in Beijing, with serious intentions.

His loyalty was no better than Zhen Yingjia's. For one thing, he was the emperor's own brother. If he didn't come up with solid evidence to punish him, it would be impossible for the Supreme Emperor to justify it now.Secondly, Zhong Zhong has been in Beijing for a long time, and he actually gathered a lot of contacts when he was favored back then. If he can't find out and eradicate him, there will always be troubles in the future.Situ Jun had endured for several years, so naturally he would not allow such a situation to happen.

It's just that Situ Jun has been on the throne for a long time, but there are only a few people who are really close and trustworthy.Since the matter is serious, Situ Lan is naturally the first candidate to handle the case.

Lin Yan rubbed the forehead for Situ Lan, but Situ Lan grabbed her hand and put it to her mouth and kissed it lightly.The warm breath sprayed on his hands, making Lin Yan feel numb.

He didn't pull back his hand, just chuckled in a very low voice, "I just came out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but I didn't wash my hands."

Situ Lan was startled, and when she realized it, she let go of Lin Yan's hand, but instead squeezed his waist hard, "You're sincerely threatening me, aren't you?"

Lin Yan suppressed a smile and remained silent.

"My back is very itchy, Zifei scratches it for me."

As he spoke, Situ Lan rubbed his back cooperatively.Lin Yan really stretched out his hand and poked into his lapel, "Here?"

"No, go down a little."

"It's here, use more force."

With a dark face, Lin Yan was scratched a few times under Situ Lan's command. Seeing Situ Lan's tendency to make more progress, he simply grabbed him on the back and pulled out his hand to straighten his robe.

Situ Lan let out a cry of pain, and an auspicious voice immediately sounded outside the car: "My lord, sir, what's the matter?"

"It's okay, let's go your way." Lin Yan said angrily.

Situ Lan sat down and straightened her robe, "Has that old fellow from the Zhen family opened his mouth yet?"

Lin Yan shook his head, Zhen Yingjia is a very hard-hearted person.At the beginning, after hearing that my family members were convicted, I might soften my heart. If I still refuse to speak after tomorrow, I am afraid that it will be the same if I ask again.

"Actually, we don't have to start with Zhen Yingjia." Lin Yan pondered, "We all know that the Zhen family and the Jia family have always been close friends and have a close relationship. Before the Zhen family was raided, they did send people to Beijing to find The Jia family. If you start with the Jia family, it shouldn't be difficult."

After Zhen's family was ransacked, the property was counted, and there was a difference of nearly one million taels from what Lin Yan verified before.Where did the money go? Zhen Yingjia refused to open his mouth to say, but Lin Yan could guess that at least part of it was put in Jia's mansion.

"Hmm..." Situ Lan nodded, her eyes were astringent, and her eyelids were heavy. Even with Lin Yan by her side, she lost her warm and charming thoughts and just wanted to sleep quickly.

When the carriage arrived at Lin's mansion, Lin Cheng and others took it in.Lin Yan still arranged for Situ Lan to go to the guest room to rest, and watched him being groomed and groomed before he regained some energy.

"Have you been in the palace today?" Lin Yan asked as Situ Lan took a set of pajamas from the cabinet and changed into them.

Situ Lan shook the soft silk double-breasted gown on her body, nodded, "The imperial concubine has been ill since the Zhen family incident, and I heard that it has become more and more serious in the past few days, and it probably won't last for a few days. I feel bad all day long, and today I was called into the palace to berate me for a long time."

When Zhen's family was ransacked, all the people in Zhen's house were imprisoned.Zhen Yingjia's youngest daughter, Zhen Yaoyuan, is at the imperial concubine's place in Beijing.Situ Jun directly ordered people to throw Zhen Yao from the palace into the prison. The imperial concubine was about the same age as the Supreme Emperor, and she was so angry, shocked and frightened that she actually fell ill.Although there are imperial physicians to diagnose and treat, but this disease comes from the heart, how can it be cured?It's the limit to delay these days, and it's just a matter of these few days.

With the imperial concubine accompanying her for decades, it is natural for the Supreme Emperor to feel unhappy.Now that the emperor's son's wings are hardened, he can't say it easily, so he spread his anger on the younger son.

Lin Yan lowered his eyelids and pondered for a while, but Situ Lan suddenly held his hand and asked with a smile, "Zifei, let's talk by candlelight today?"

After rolling his eyes at him, Lin Yan said: "I thought, the Jia family is not a safe place. After the Zhen family's money is sent there, there is no reason to evade it. First, if the Zhen family is fine, they must accept it." Their request. Second, if the Zhen family has something to do, the money will naturally become theirs. Since this is the case, why not do it? Now I am thinking..."

Situ Lan sighed: "Come on, I've seen you have lost a lot of weight these days. As you said, the Jia family is full of braids. We don't need to look for them, they will play themselves to death Yes." As he said, he put his arms around his shoulders, and he really felt that this man's body was getting less and less fleshy.

Lin Yan simply didn't go back to his own yard, took off the long gown outside, wiped himself casually, and lay down on the bed with Situ Lan.

Both of them were exhausted, and before they could say a few words, they were both sound asleep.Before he woke up the next morning, he heard Lin Cheng knocking on the door and calling out.

Lin Yan was sleeping soundly, Situ Lan was afraid of waking him up, so she hurriedly got up and put on her clothes to open the door, only to see that Lin Cheng was followed by her own guard, Ding Jia.

"My lord, the noble concubine in the palace has passed away, and the emperor's Xuanzong family will immediately go to the palace to express their condolences."
