Kuai Chuan's brother is the real boss

Tanchun is quite used to living in Rongguo Mansion. Yuanchun Yingchun takes good care of her sister whom she has never met. Xichun is younger than Tanchun, and she plays very well with her sister.

After all, Tanchun was only five years old, and Daiyu was the only one playing with her when she was in Gusu, but now there are three sisters playing with her here, and she immediately felt a sense of ecstasy.

However, no matter how much she hated these sisters and sisters, she couldn't live in Rongguo Mansion permanently. After Jia Zhu's wedding, Jiang Yan and Fu Ling planned to leave for Jinling.

Before returning to Jinling, Jiang Yan went to see Sheng Ling who had become the prince.

Sheng Ling is not surprised that Jiang Yan will act according to his wishes. In fact, he has never given Jiang Yan a way out. This is the first time that Jiang Yan has taken the initiative to ask him to meet since the two of them cooperated. He sent someone to find Jiang Yan before. .

It is still in an unremarkable restaurant, and the location is the same as before. Although it seems to outsiders that Jiang Yan has somehow connected with him, the past between them is hidden after all. It's not good.

When Jiang Yan arrived, Sheng Ling had already arrived. Compared with 15 years ago, Sheng Ling had faded. He had grown into a person who did not show any emotions.

"I have seen His Royal Highness."

"There's no need to be too polite." Sheng Ling didn't move, and pointed to the seat in front of him, "Sit."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Jiang Yan followed Shanru into the seat, and said straight to the point: "I asked Your Highness to come here today, because I have a gift for His Highness, and I wish His Highness the East Palace."

Sheng Ling couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked at Jiang Yan with deep eyes, because he knew from the beginning that Jiang Yan's cooperation with him was not for glory and wealth, and Jiang Yan had never flattered him in any way in these years. first time.

"what gift?"

Jiang Yan took out a letter from his cuff and handed it over, "Your Highness must know that I have been researching sea trade for the past few years. This is a blueprint of a ship that is still in good condition after going to sea several times, and can accommodate more than a thousand people. .”

Sheng Ling didn't understand the structure of the ship, nor could he understand the blueprint, so he didn't take the blueprint out of the envelope, but just held the slightly thick envelope, "What do you mean by sending me the blueprint of the ship?"

"Your Highness will become emperor next year. Although the Supreme Emperor is here, I think His Highness still wants to take revenge. Build ships and go to sea, and use well-trained soldiers to attack those small island countries. His Highness will surely be famous in history."

What Sheng Ling wants is to leave a name in history, so he will give him this opportunity. The boats of this era are already very good. The unique mortise and tenon structure makes the boat much stronger, but there will still be some damage after being soaked in the water for a long time. Dangerous, Jiang Yan's drawings just made up for this shortcoming.

Traveling fast greatly reduces time in seawater.

Sheng Ling knew that Jiang Yan had been trying to go overseas for the past five years, and many of the formalities were approved by him. After all, the money Jiang Yan earned could help him with his affairs.

He did think about expanding the territory after ascending the throne, but he never thought about attacking small island countries. Before, he wanted to let Jiang Yan enter the court again as an official, and he also wanted to lead troops to fight to recover the border.

"You used to lead troops to fight. Thinking about it, there is a difference between fighting at sea and fighting on land. I have no generals who are good at naval warfare, and I have heard that many people started to vomit after entering the sea. How can you fight like this?"

Sheng Ling's eyes fell on the envelope in his hand. Jiang Yan must have already thought about what to do next when he gave him the blueprint, so when he asked this question, unexpectedly, Jiang Yan only said: "When the strength is strong, you can cut the mess with a quick knife. But, without any battle strategy, could it be possible that His Highness is still counting on the aborigines to thank His Highness after acquiring the small island country?"

Attacking the pool and looting land, even if the people who live in the city are good to the people, they are all invaders to them. Sheng Ling doesn't care what those people say. In his opinion, it's just that they have different positions and cannot agree.

Sheng Ling remained silent, and Jiang Yan continued: "Your Highness, my ship is traveling very fast and very stable. There will definitely be no seasickness and vomiting after boarding. I can guarantee this."

With the blueprint in his hands, no one knows whether it will have the effect Jiang Yan said, and we can only wait for the boat to be made.

Sheng Ling didn't want to let go of this opportunity. When he came to see Jiang Yan today, he saw a road full of thorns, but as long as he walked through it, it was a road with a wide sea and sky, and even if he didn't attack small island countries, he could still build ships to go to sea.

If the ship is built, it is as stable as Jiang Yan said, it will not get seasick, and its speed is fast, the benefits will be countless.

"Your Highness has accepted the blueprint, could you please do me a little favor?"

As soon as Jiang Yan said this, Sheng Ling instantly felt that the envelope in his hand was not so hot. He was thinking of rewarding him as a 'Prince', but now it seems that this is the same as before, it is still a deal.

"Tell me."

"My second elder brother has a daughter named Yuanchun, who is 13 years old this year. According to my court practice, she will go to the audition in three years. I would like to ask His Highness to help her so that she can go home and get married independently after losing the election."

Jiang Yan said his appeal, Sheng Ling nodded calmly, back and forth, this is the way he and Jiang Yan get along, if Jiang Yan is like other officials, after he became the prince, he was extremely flattering, That made him uneasy.

"This is a trivial matter. I will tell people to remember that your niece will definitely not be allowed to enter the palace." It's just letting a beautiful girl go home after failing the election. You can just find any reason, it's not a big deal Son.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your compassion." Jiang Yan got up to thank him, and Sheng Ling got up accordingly, "You don't need to thank me, if this blueprint really has the effect you said, there will be another big reward."

Seeing Jiang Yan thanking him again, Sheng Ling suddenly had a feeling that he didn't want to let his daughter into the palace because he didn't want to be an official.But that wasn't his biological daughter either.

Back then, Jia Zheng and Jia's mother thought they were deceiving others, but in fact, only those who dared not resist them were able to cover up. Sheng Ling and Jiang Yan had a close relationship, so it was natural to know every move of the Jia family, let alone Jiang Yan's sudden addition of a daughter, of course, needs to be investigated.

Seeing Jiang Yan leave, Sheng Ling picked up the wine glass on the table and walked slowly to the window, watched the people coming and going outside, and drank it down in one gulp.

One day, he will hold all of this world, these thousands of miles of land and mountains in his hands, so that no one can get a finger of them.

"Go back to the palace."

Every time we meet, Sheng Ling wears coarse linen clothes in order to deceive others, but after walking out of this restaurant, the nobility that Jiang Yan saw in the restaurant is gone, he is just like an ordinary person wearing coarse linen clothes .

If he didn't notice the hidden guards around him, he was just a pedestrian, and no one would equate him with the current prince.

Jiang Yan didn't tell Mother Jia about Sheng Ling's promise to make Yuan Chun lose the election. First, the matter was not settled and would change at any time; second, it was because the connection between him and Sheng Ling could not be known.

So after saying goodbye to Jia Mu, the family of three set foot on the road back to Jinling again, and Lin Jin stayed. He will take part in the examination held at the official office of the Ministry of Rites next spring. If he passes the examination, he will be a tribute. You can participate in the palace examination hosted by the emperor or the minister.

Jiang Yan was originally worried about letting Lin Jin stay in Rongguo Mansion. The private school in Rongguo Mansion didn't say that he could learn something, it would be good if he didn't learn bad things.

It turned out that he wanted to stay in the capital for a longer period of time, or lied that Lin Jin had returned to Gusu, and prepared a small courtyard for him in the capital, away from the Jia family.

But a few days ago, news suddenly reached the Jia family that Lin Ruhai was going back to Beijing to report on his duties, and the whole family would be going to the capital soon.

However, Lin Jin only stayed alone at Jia's house for more than a dozen days. With Lin Ruhai in Lin Jin, Lin Jin definitely couldn't learn bad habits. Even if he learned some bad habits, Lin Ruhai could correct him. .

"I remember something in the story. After Xue Pan came to Jia's house and entered the private school, he was even more dandy than before. It can be seen that the place is a quagmire at all. If I take Tanchun back first, no matter how much you Stay for a few days and wait for Miner and the others to come back before leaving?"

Fu Ling was worried about the business in Jinling. Master Xue of the Xue family had passed away, and their family had just been praised by the Holy Spirit. Jinling would definitely make a big move. It's not good to be broken.

Now whenever she thinks about the description of Jia's private school in the book, Fu Ling feels sick again. In the past, she didn't think there was anything wrong with reading the words in the book, but when it happened around her, she would feel a little uncomfortable psychologically and physically.

Seeing Fu Ling's uncomfortable appearance, Jiang Yan was somewhat influenced by her, "Then you go back first, I'll stay for a few days."

As Jiang Yan said, he got out of the carriage and rode back on the horse. He didn't care what Jia Zhu and Jia Baoyu learned in the school, and how much he learned badly. , They themselves are to blame for their own ineffective supervision and harm to their children and grandchildren.

Lin Jin is an outsider, he was brought up badly in the school, it's not good to learn the corrupt and extravagant life of those sons and daughters.

It stands to reason that Jiang Yan should match Lin Jin's self-control. After all, he is already an adult, but when he thinks about the environment he lived in in the past years, he is a little worried.

Lin Ruhai didn't have any concubines in the Lin Mansion, except for the master who was all servants, the teacher Lin Ruhai found for him, the riding and archery master and the martial arts master were all worthy people, so he had never met those treacherous villains.

At the same time, news of Jiang Yan's departure and return reached Mother Jia, and Mother Jia was also puzzled, "But something is missing? Send someone to ask."

"If you go back to the ancestors, after the third master came back, he went directly to Young Master Biao's yard. Presumably, he must have something to tell Young Master Biao, and he has already been asked." The maid beside him said.

Mother Jia nodded, thinking that it was Jiang Yan who wanted to give Lin Jin a few words of advice, but she never thought that Jiang Yan would come to her half an hour later, saying that she would stay for another half a month, and wait until she saw Miner come back in half a month. Walk.

Naturally, Mother Jia would not have thought that Jiang Yan was worried about Lin Jin, and only thought that the two of them had a good relationship.

"Min'er has been in Gusu for the past few years, far away from her relatives. Fortunately, you can visit her anytime in Jinling to relieve her homesickness."

Mother Jia also married from Jinling to the capital back then, so she could understand the feeling of being far away from her family. After she got married, she had to put her husband's surname in front of her surname, which meant that she and her parents and brothers were not in the same family. From now on, the place where I live is just my natal family.

Jia's mother has been married for decades, and now she just thinks about it with emotion, not to say that she is so sad, her parents have long since passed away, and her natal family is even more unfamiliar to her.

Seeing this situation, Jiang Yan didn't say much comforting words, stayed for a while and left.

Maybe it was because Lin Jin came to him impatiently knowing that he had come out from Jiamu's place. After such a short time, he carefully thought over what Jiang Yan said to him, and always felt that Jiang Yan had something in his words, so he wanted to Let's ask.

Jiang Yan told him to read a lot in the room and not to be disturbed when he went out. If he couldn't calm down in Rongguo Mansion, he would have someone clean out the Lin family's house in the capital and go back to the Lin family's house.

At first glance, these words sounded okay, urging him to study hard, but the problem is that these words came from Jiang Yan's mouth. His father was very strict with his studies since he was a child, but his uncle and mother let him relax.

When I was in Gusu before, I told him that he is still young, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t pass this test, there will be chances in the future, so the point of his uncle’s words should not be to let him study hard, but to discord with honor. Let other people in the government get in touch.

"Uncle, you don't like this place?" Lin Jin asked tentatively after finishing his guess.

Jiang Yan gave Lin Jin a "you know" look, if he likes here, why did he move to Jinling, Jinling is not in the capital, the reason is to stay away from these people, and get closer to Jia Min by the way.

"Why is that? Isn't this the place where you and your mother lived since childhood?" Lin Jin asked puzzled. He followed his mother to Rongguo Mansion before, and when he was about to leave, his mother was very reluctant.

Jiang Yan smiled, "Maybe it's because we have different ways and interests, and it would be very tiring to get along with each other, so I chose to escape."

"Two uncles, they..." Lin Jin stopped talking before finishing his sentence. After all, he is a junior, and it is wrong to openly talk about the elders. "Actually, I also think this house is a bit strange."

"Oh? Did you see something strange?" Could it really make him see something.

Lin Jin thought about it carefully, and said that the strangeness was just a feeling, "Cousin Zhu is weak and doesn't go to school often, but Cousin Lian is in good health and often goes to school, and he will also go to school this year. Fourteen years old, but judging from his words and deeds, he doesn't seem to have much knowledge, and the uncle doesn't care about it."

I don’t know if it’s because their family is so strict with their children’s studies that it makes him feel a little strange to see that the eldest uncle doesn’t care about Jia Lian’s foolishness. Is there really a father who doesn’t care about his son’s future at all?

Jiang Yan found that Lin Jin was still too naive. Maybe it was because he had been in Rongguo Mansion for too short a time, so he didn't have a thorough understanding of passers-by. Jia She himself is a master who only knows how to find women. Naturally, he developed the habit of a playboy.

Compared with Han Chuang's hard study, Han Chuang's hard work is already a hard job. Born in peace and happiness, the awareness of crisis is not enough, so how could he still like reading.

"Let me tell you the truth, the reason why I went and came back is because I don't trust you here alone, you were taught by your father to be too upright, and it's extremely incompatible with this place, and I want to learn to be bad by myself. It's just a blink of an eye."

Lin Jin nodded very seriously, and he will work hard to restrain himself, "Didn't uncle ever think about changing the situation here? Maybe the wind of indisputability can be changed?"

"Do you think my two elder brothers will listen to my opinion? My rash test will only make them think that I have moved my mind, and they will be more guarded against me."

How did Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng treat him when he exchanged a real sword and a real wooden barn for military merits when he reached the fourth rank?

There was no tit-for-tat or anything done in words, but his attitude was very clear, and he remembered it clearly.

Lin Jin stopped talking, Jiang Yan had nothing to do, and he was not qualified to intervene. For now, all he can do is to restrain himself, to perform filial piety for his mother in front of his grandmother, and wait for his parents to come together Go back to live in the Lin family's house.

However, Lin Jin didn't know, he still thought things simply.

The next day, Jia Lian happened to go to the school. The school had been closed for three days because of Jia Zhu's big wedding. This time, he thought of calling Lin Jin to show off in front of the other students in the school, and let everyone see that he was not much older than them. What kind of person is he who is old but already a master of Juren?

Lin Jin didn't want to save Jia Lian's face, so he followed him. He never thought that he happened to encounter a fight. He didn't know why it started. Anyway, when he and Jia Lian just arrived at the school gate, they met each other. Stones were thrown.

Because Lin Jin knew martial arts, he subconsciously reached out to pick it up, but he didn't expect that the stone had been polished. The moment he held it, he felt severe pain in his palm. He threw the stone away quickly, and his palm was already bloody.

"What are you doing? Cousin, are you alright? I'm sorry I shouldn't have let you here, go find a doctor." Jia Lian noticed that Lin Jin was injured on his right hand and said hastily.

He also knew that Lin Jin was going to take part in the examination next spring, and he knew even more that these people in the school were vicious, they might even put poison on them, and it was not just for fun if they kept festering.

Lin Jin practiced riding and archery since he was a child, and fell off his horse many times when he was a child. He also suffered many injuries because of practicing martial arts, but this time was different from the previous injuries. He only felt the burning and burning pain in his palms. It was still very itchy, as if tens of thousands of ants were gnawing at his flesh and bones.

Jia Lian hurriedly helped someone to rest inside. Someone saw Jia Lian anxiously and asked, "Who is that? Why is Lian Er so anxious?"

"Lian Er's name is Cousin, he should be the son of Mr. Lin Ruhai's family."

"Is it Lin Jin? Isn't that Ju Ren?"

"Wow, Li Hong, you are in trouble, you hurt Master Juren."

"How can you blame me? I was going to hit you, and it was Mr. Lin who hit you after you avoided it."

Wuyang Wuyang was making a lot of noise in the school, and now Jia Lian couldn't care less about it. Seeing Lin Jin's painful appearance, he knew that the stone must have been tampered with, so he hurriedly sent someone to invite the doctor.

Fortunately, there is a doctor in the Rongguo Mansion, and the school is not far from the Rongguo Mansion. The doctor was quickly found, and this matter was naturally known to Jia Mu and Jiang Yan.

"Which person got along with such a vicious way? The stone was sharpened and poison was smeared on it. Is it because I'm afraid it will kill people?" Jiamu said angrily.

Her daughter has only one son, and at such a young age, the future is promising, but at this time, her right hand that can write is injured, because this matter delays the examination, who can afford it?

Besides, her Baoyu hasn't gone to school yet, and when she actually goes to school and encounters such a thing, she must die of heartache.

"Grandmother, I think it's better not to let people who don't know the basics come to our own school." Jia Zhu thought for a while and said.

Before getting married, he would go to the school occasionally. Outsiders only thought that he didn't go to the school because he was weak, but in fact, only he and the servants around him knew that he didn't go to the school just because he didn't like the atmosphere there.

Mother Jia nodded in agreement. This incident seemed to be accidental, but from Jia Lian's expression, it can be seen that poisoning people is nothing new. Such sinister and vicious people stay in the school. There will be a big mistake someday.

"Let your old man come to my place later, and I will tell him about it personally. In the future, those distant relatives will not be allowed to come to Jia's Academy, and all nonsense people will be brought in. In the end, it is our own children who will suffer. .”

Jia's mother said to Jia Lian with a cold face, Jia Lian knew that he was at fault in this matter first, but thinking that if some nerds were born in the school in the future, wouldn't it be very boring?

"Grandma, I..."

"Grandmother, in fact, you can invite a few more teachers. If you have more teachers, you will be able to take care of the students." Jia Zhu stopped Jia Lian before he finished speaking.

Mother Jia nodded. She didn't go to school and didn't know what to do, but Jia Zheng must have known about it. Let him take care of this matter. After all, Jia's school is still mostly Jia's children The bad environment is harming oneself.

Jiang Yan watched Mother Jia's orders to Jia She and Jia Zheng, and also saw the wound on Lin Jin's palm. He said it was poison, but it was actually not very poisonous. It would take ten days and a half months to heal, and there would be no delay. Will try next spring.

It's just that the interest in this matter is bad, openly hurting people in the school, it seems to be as simple as a common meal, a person who is used to doing evil things, it can be seen that his heart is completely dirty.

And unless this kind of situation is eliminated with the greatest force, otherwise there will be another batch after one group is gone, and there will be no end to letting things go.
