The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

The next day happened to be the day when Mr. Lin took a rest, so early in the morning, Mr. Lin took the Jiang family and a few children to Jiang's mansion, euphemistically called: to visit the old man.

After getting off the car at Jiangfu, Lin Hai followed Mr. Lin to the front yard, and Jiang led a few children to the inner yard.

Originally, Lin Hai thought that Mr. Lin was a little unfounded, but looking at the posture of the Jiang family, he really had that meaning.As soon as he stepped into Jiang's study, four pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, Lin Hai was slightly startled.

He obediently followed behind Master Lin, and waited for Master Lin to greet Mrs. Jiang before Lin Hai went up to salute one by one, and then sat down and waited after the ceremony.

People from a scholarly family have a nasty habit, that is, they like to practice Tai Chi in everything. After talking about it for a long time, they finally talked about the purpose of their visit today!

Lin Hai secretly wiped his sweat at the end, they were not too tired, and he was too hot beside him!

"I don't know father-in-law, why did you come to me today?"

The old man Jiang stroked his beard and gave Lin Hai's uncle Jiang Zhe a look. Jiang Zhe understood and cleared his throat, "It's nothing serious, I just want to ask my brother-in-law what you think about the current situation."

"This year's singing and dancing will bring peace, and the emperor's dragon body is also healthy. What else can there be?" Master Lin is also a fox-like character, even in front of his son Lin Hai, he often plays charades.How could it be so easy to express my opinion now!

On the other hand, Lin Hai's little uncle Jiang Qi is an impatient "Brother-in-law, don't play charades, it's not like you can't see something in the current situation. What the elder brother means is, brother-in-law, look at which prince has hope! "

These words should not have been said in front of Lin Hai and Jiang? However, both Lin Hai and Jiang? are the eldest sons, and they will inherit the family business in the future, so the two families have carried out elite education for them early on. , Although they do not have the right to speak about this kind of matter, they still have the right to observe.

"Which one does father-in-law like?" Master Lin asked back.

"Among the several princes, the one my father thinks has the best chance is the sixth prince born of Concubine Gao Xian. The Gao family is a century-old family of scholars. Half of them are disciples of the Gao family, and the concubine of the sixth prince is the daughter of Yan Shanzhang of Yuelu Academy. There is a huge network of connections in the court, and he has the greatest chance of being the heir apparent..."

Not to mention Master Lin, even Lin Hai shook his head. It would be fine if the sixth prince was a minister, but he happened to be only one prince, and he was one of the most distinguished princes besides the seventh prince.No matter how powerful the power is, don't say that the other princes have to be more on guard against the sixth prince, even the emperor is afraid of it in his heart!

Thinking of the Jiang family, Lin Hai couldn't help but said: "Grandfather, the emperor's thoughts are unpredictable, how can you and I guess which prince will be in power? Besides, you are the emperor's servant, why think so far away? You have already You are an extremely human minister, no matter which prince is in power, they will use you in order to stabilize the situation, so why do you have to come to this muddy water?" Looking at the old man Jiang, his eyes showed concern.

As soon as Lin Hai said this, the room fell silent.

In fact, after Lin Hai said these words, he felt a little regretful in his heart.I can't help beating the villain madly in my heart, dammit, I told you to show off, it's all right now!It is not terrible to be regarded as a genius by others, but what is terrible is to be regarded as a monster. In this era, monsters are the targets of everyone shouting and beating like a mouse crossing the street.

But he can't turn a blind eye, don't see, listen, and don't hear. The Jiang family is Jiang's natal family. Let alone whether the impact of the Jiang family's collapse on the Lin family will affect the Lin family's affairs. It's just that realistic.For so many years, Jiang's love for Lin Hai is not false, even if the twins and Lin Shen were born one after another, it did not affect Jiang's love for Lin Hai at all. Lin Hai was naturally unwilling, and his loving eyes became melancholy.

After a while, Mrs. Jiang looked at Mrs. Lin, "Is that what you mean too?"

"Father-in-law, what matters is not what I mean, but what you mean. Since ancient times, this position has been a very dangerous thing. If you are not careful, you will be doomed." Master Lin said with a frown. Zu Xun, the Lin family's children did not wait to participate in the fight for the heir apparent, if the Jiang family was not his Yue's family, Master Lin would not even have entered the gate.

"Sigh." Mrs. Jiang sighed, "Do you think I don't know the danger? But this is not a question of whether I like it or not, but a question of having to do it."

"Why is this?" Lin Hai asked curiously. Although the Jiang family is not considered powerful in the capital, it should not be underestimated. Several relatives are very powerful. What else can make Mrs. Jiang so helpless.

As soon as Lin Hai said this, not only Old Master Jiang, but also Jiang Zhe, Jiang Qi and Jiang? were silent!

Frowning, Lin Hai rolled his eyes, "Then, grandfather, why doesn't the emperor like Concubine Li and the tenth prince?" Compared with the seventh prince, the tenth prince is much less favored, if there is no one The mother of the first rank has been killed long ago!

"Concubine Li's natal family holds the military power. If the Liu family stomps their feet, the Feng Dynasty will tremble three times. Can the emperor not be afraid of such strength?"

Lin Hai smiled, and said leisurely: "Then grandfather, the Gao family and the Yan family are not just as powerful besides being more famous than the Liu family?"

Mrs. Jiang was startled, but he was shocked when his thoughts turned. Because he was born in the imperial examination, he never thought that the Gao family and the Yan family were as famous in the scholarly forest as the Liu family, and would be tabooed by the emperor...

"Then this..."

"Father-in-law, you should know the Junbi Academy in Suzhou!" Master Lin interrupted suddenly.

No one knows about the four major academies in Fengchao, Old Master Jiang nodded.

"The behind-the-scenes investor of Junbi Academy is my Lin family. Father-in-law knows the little tricks the sixth prince has done in Junbi Academy during this period. Not much, he doesn't want to move and dare not move. Two of the other three academies have already fallen to him, and the sixth prince came to win over his father-in-law, and it was only because of Junbi Academy. When Junbi Academy attacked, he had already lost his inheritance rights, and the emperor will not allow him to continue to grow."

As he said that, Master Lin glanced at the surprised crowd and said: "I didn't know it at first, but I only found out about it because of a letter from Jiangnan not long ago. It turns out that the heads of the four major academies can go directly to Datian Listening, the patriarch As long as the Sixth Prince has made a move, he has participated in one of his books!"

what! ?

Everyone was taken aback, and they went directly to Datian to listen, which can be compared to a governor!
