The Lin family of the Red Chamber has a son

Sure enough, Lin Yan, along with Shi Dazhou, was awarded the editor of the Imperial Academy, a junior official of the seventh rank.Liu Ji, the No. [-] scholar in the same session, was awarded the compilation from the Liupin Imperial Academy.

Although the official position is not high, it is noble, and the Hanlin Academy has always been regarded as a place for talent reserves. The editor's usual duties are to draft edicts, compile history books, etc., a real close minister of the emperor.

It's just that everything is settled after entering Hanlin.Every three years, the Hanlin Academy also conducts a college entrance examination, and those who fail will be kicked out of the Imperial Academy.Therefore, even if many of them won the imperial examination and entered the Imperial Academy, they were extremely afraid of the college entrance examination.

The Lin family had been in the limelight for a while, and it was a marriage bestowed by the Supreme Emperor, and it was also a "father and son relationship". Although Lin Ruhai had passed away, this good story was a hot topic among the officials in Beijing.

Although Lin Ruhai has been in Jiangnan for many years, he has made quite a few friends in Beijing and China.Besides, he once served as a doctor of Lantai Temple. He was a senior member of the court from the second rank, so how could he not attract attention?He and his wife Jia have not had any children for many years, and everyone who knows him knows this.There were also people who lamented that several generations of the Lin family's scholarly heirs would be extinct in Lin Ruhai's generation.

Who would have thought that Lin Ruhai's adopted one was brilliant in every way.Not to mention the handsomeness of his life, his temperament is gentle and polite, and he is willing to strive for strength. With this adopted son, the Lin family has unexpectedly risen again.

Therefore, people in Beijing often talked about the three Ding Jias this year. Although Lin Yan was the last, Nai He was the most talked about, and he was the one who must be mentioned by the officials of the family to teach the younger generation.

After entering the Imperial Academy, the three of Lin Yan received a lot of attention.Except for Lin Yan, who is the topic of discussion, Shi Dazhou, the oldest of the three of them, is only 23 years old. Lin Yan and Liu Ji are the only ones who have won the championship. Compared with them, it is difficult not to attract attention.

This day, Lin Yan and Liu Ji were on duty, and when they were on duty, Liu Ji invited Lin Yan to have a drink.

He is the same age as Lin Yan, but slightly younger by two months.Xu Shi had never been in contact with others since he was a child, so he would always blush before speaking.He and Lin Yan and Shi Dazhou are the two most familiar, so he often stays with them, not for any other reason, it is really hard to reason with others.

Although Lin Yan felt that his temperament was too weak, he didn't reject it, and asked with a smile, "Where is Qing Fei going?"

Liu Ji thought for a while and said, "The best restaurant in Beijing is the Zuixianlou. I heard that there is new wine coming out there. If Zifei is fine, where should we go?"

Lin Yan almost laughed, and said, "That's very good, Qing Fei invited me."

The two walked out of the gate of the Imperial Academy talking and laughing, and the carriages of the two other families were there.Ping An, who followed Lin Yan, saw Liu Ji following Lin Yan step by step, stepped forward and whispered back, "The two masters are going to the mansion, and they are waiting there."

After Lin Yan heard this, he knew that Situ Lan was waiting for him in the distance, but he didn't say anything beforehand, so he asked Liu Ji to have a drink, and now he was embarrassed to say that he couldn't go.It was difficult for a while.

Liu Ji is smart, truly smart.Lin Yan's success in school is actually largely due to the fact that he is not a child of that age, and his speech and views are naturally different from those of those children.But Liu Ji really has the ability of photographic memory.However, all his intelligence is used in his studies, and he has some troubles with the world.

Seeing Lin Yan glanced at him with a slightly troubled face, he immediately understood that Lin Yan might have something to do.

Asked tentatively: "Zifei, if you have something to do, we can do it another day."

Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, and said apologetically, "Then, I'll be the host tomorrow."

Liu Ji nodded with a smile, his delicate eyebrows and eyes were crooked, he looked even more handsome than a girl.

Ping An glanced at him, then turned around and opened the curtain of the carriage.Lin Yan and Liu Ji clasped their hands together and got into the car.Liu Ji watched Lin Yan go away in the carriage, then sighed, turned around and walked towards his carriage.

The cars of Situ Lan and Yun Ning had actually arrived long ago, and they could still sit in the car and wait in the car when they parked at Yun Ning, but Si Tu Lan wished he could go to the front to pick them up.Seeing the Lin family's carriage approaching from a distance, he hurriedly asked the coachman to follow.

Not long after, three cars arrived at Lin's mansion.Situ Lan didn't wait for the carriage to come to a complete stop, and jumped off first. Yun Ning, who was behind him, just shook his head.

"Zifei!" Situ Lan called out.

Waiting to see Lin Yan getting out of the car wearing a seventh-grade green court dress, Situ Lan immediately smiled and praised in his heart—it really is Zifei, and this green court dress is often seen on weekdays. It wears out a kind of elegant taste like bamboo.

Lin Yan smiled and bowed his hands to the two of them as a greeting. The housekeeper had asked someone to open the door long ago, leading a few servants to wait on both sides.After letting the person into the flower hall, Lin Yan was a little curious about the two people's intentions.

A few maids served tea, Yun Ning watched everyone go down, and then said: "Someone came to see me in my house yesterday."

"Oh?" Lin Yan was taken aback, thinking that if it wasn't for something related to his family, Yun Ning wouldn't have come here to talk to him, right?

Sure enough, Yun Ning's next sentence was, "It's the one called Jia Baoyu."

Lin Yan frowned, "He? What did he want you for?"

After asking this question, Lin Yan felt a little uneasy.Although Jia Baoyu is not very scheming, the key lies here.It is said that he is quite considerate in etiquette outside, but in Lin Yan's view, he dares to ride in a car with his young sister-in-law even outside the house, no matter how thoughtful he is, there is a limit.What's more, Second Master Bao can't deduce it with common sense. If you say he is stupid, he is still very shrewd in regulating fat and powder;Besides, the Anlehou Mansion had never had any contact with the Rongguo Mansion, so Lin Yan really couldn't think of any reason for him to go to Yun Ning.Could it be...

Holding the teacup tightly, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "But what did you say?"

"Lorry talked for a long time, and I got tired of hearing it, so I was thrown out." Yun Ning's face was full of disdain, "I'm here to tell you, to tell you to be more on guard. I listened to that meaning, That mansion is much dissatisfied with you. Besides, you are in the limelight now, so you have to be careful not to make people stumble behind you."

Situ Lan was dissatisfied and said, "Just tell me about it. I want to see who dares to play tricks on Zi Fei."

Lin Yan squinted his eyes and asked, "Then Jia Baoyu always only likes to hang out in the inner circle, and doesn't like to go out and mingle with others. How did he get to Lord Hou?"

Anger flashed in Yun Ning's eyes, and he sneered, "I just said some incomprehensible things."

At a glance, Lin Yan stared at him. Although Situ Lan pretended to drink tea, his ears almost perked up.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Yun Ning said, "I said something to take care of Miss Lin."

Seeing him, Lin Yan didn't elaborate, and knew that it must not be so simple.I don't know what Yun Ning will think after hearing this.

Because looking at Yun Ning, he saw that his face was the same as usual, with some coldness and wood, but nothing else.

"Actually, I came today because I wanted to talk to Brother Lin first. I have sent someone to the Qintian Supervisor to check. There are two good days in July. If you have nothing else, I will send someone to come over to play the university. deal."

This is the purpose of coming.

Lin Yan thought about it, and it was hot in July.The wedding ceremony is very cumbersome, not to mention anything else, the bride's phoenix coronet and Xiapei are three layers inside and three layers outside, and it is really painful to wear it.

Yin laughed and said, "We have all the things here, so the days are not too tight, but it's too hot in July, isn't it?"

Yun Ning said: "That's okay, the left and right wedding sedan chairs are wide enough to put two more ice basins. And there is something in my house, which is inherited from the ancestors. I don't know what it is made of, but it hangs on my body during the summer. I feel cold all over my body, and I don’t feel any sweat.”

Lin Yan was very interested, "Is there such a good thing? It's a pity, I haven't seen it before."

Situ Lan laughed with a "poof", Yun Ning suddenly showed a bit of embarrassment, and said after a long while, "I'm taking it with me."

Saying that, with a bit of twitching, he took off a jade ring from his neck.White, transparent and clear, carved with cirrus patterns, it looks no different from ordinary jade ornaments.

Yun Ning handed it to Lin Yan, and Lin Yan stretched out his hand to explore, but he didn't feel anything.Holding it in my hand again, I just felt a warm and cool feeling penetrated my chest.

She smiled and returned it to Yun Ning, "It really is a good thing."

Yun Ning refused to answer, "Leave it to Miss Lin."

Lin Yan shook his head and smiled, "Forget it, what is it called? Since it is a treasure handed down from your ancestors, you can just send it over in the Dading ceremony."

Yun Ning knew that this was an answer, and immediately smiled seven points more on his face, nodded and said: "You are right. I will go back and ask people to prepare, and I will come to Dading in two days."

After finally getting a chance to interrupt, Situ Lan hurriedly said: "Exactly. The big ceremony is much more complicated than the small ceremony. You should start earlier, so that you don't forget about it."

Yun Ning got up and took a look at him, then snorted, "That's right, my cousin was married before, so naturally I know that Da Ding Li should not be careless."

Situ Lan slumped, and turned to look at Lin Yan.Lin Yan also got up, and only said to Yun Ning, "I'll take Master Hou out."

"Hey, Zifei..." Situ Lan followed pitifully, and really regretted making fun of Yun Ning.

After seeing off Yun Ning, Lin Yan looked back and saw that Situ Lan was still behind him, frowning, "Aren't you leaving?"

"The car has already left, I don't have a car."

Lin Yan glared at him, "I'm going out for a while, to Zuixianlou. Are you coming?"

Situ Lan immediately recovered, and said with a smile, "Naturally."

Lin Yan went in and changed his clothes, got into the car with Situ Lan again, and made a detour to the back door of Zuixian Tower.Knowing that Lin Yan was coming, Shi Qing greeted him very happily. When he saw Situ Lan beside Lin Yan, he hurriedly lowered his head again and bowed in salute.

Lin Yan entered the room and looked through the brochure Shi Qing sent.Situ Lan just sat on the side drinking tea and didn't look over there.

Standing beside Lin Yan, Shi Qing looked at Lin Yan with his head bowed, his black hair tied up with a jade hairpin, and a part of his neck was exposed, which was made even more white by the dark green shirt on his body.Shi Qing's heart beat faster, and he almost couldn't help but worship him.Unexpectedly, Situ Lan coughed heavily, and hurriedly looked away.

Situ Lan was sitting in a carved armchair, with one foot stepping on the side of the chair in a shapeless manner. It was obviously a vulgar gesture, but it didn't look ugly when he did it, on the contrary, it showed a bit of unruly feel.

Squinting at Shi Qing, seeing his head getting lower and lower, he snorted coldly.Lin Yan raised his head and glanced at Situ Lan, then lowered his eyes again, "It's well done, but it needs to be more detailed."

The words were addressed to Shi Qing.

Shi Qing replied in a low voice: "Yes."

Lin Yan got up to leave, Shi Qing didn't dare to say anything else, and respectfully sent the man out of the small door behind, seeing Lin Yan and Situ Lan turning a corner in the car, he couldn't see before sighing.

In the car, Situ Lan didn't know what he was thinking, and leaned against the wall of the car and didn't speak.Because Lin Yan remembered something, he moved closer to him and asked, "What did Jia Baoyu say when he went to see Lord Hou?"

"Where did he tell me? As long as it's about your sister, he keeps it a secret, lest I laugh at him."

Lin Yan then called the boy sitting on the shaft outside, "Auspicious!"

"Hey!" Ji Xiangyuan poked his head in, "Master, what's the matter?"

"Go and inquire yourself. Is there anything going on in the Rongguo Mansion these days, especially the Second Master Bao?"

"Yes!" This is what Jixiang is best at. Lin Yan often feels that it is a bit overkill to keep him by his side, and thinking about getting bigger, he releases him and Chang Le'er together.

But Ji Xiang was capable, so he went back and forth to Lin Yan in the evening of the second day.Lin Yan was looking at a pot of famous orchids that he bought with a lot of money. Hearing the auspicious words, he sneered for a moment, picked up the scissors, and cut off a very fat leaf of the orchid, "Things that grow crooked, What are you keeping for?"
