Lin Jue of the Red Chamber

The next day, Guozijian.

Lin Jue smiled and listened to the news from her classmate from home, but her eyes were cold, she still underestimated Shi Zili, to strike so fast.Tilting his head slightly, he asked curiously: "How can you be sure that the young master is playing tricks? I heard that the young master fell badly, and the Palace of Yong Palace invited an imperial doctor."

The student in the purple shirt waved his hand: "If it wasn't for a tricky plan, why did it fall yesterday? Let me tell you, the eldest young master injured the fourth young master first, and he was afraid that Prince Yong would blame him, so he made a surprise on purpose. The horse incident, won’t you be blamed by the lord? Just blame him for his evil, he fell a little harder, that’s good, don’t use cruel tricks, the lord won’t blame him.”

Seeing the students around him nodding in agreement, Lin Jue was impatient, and his face was still full of doubts: "But, what I heard is just the opposite."

The students all turned to Lin Jue, and some of them who were more irritable kept asking, "Then tell me quickly, what's going on?"

"Well, what I heard is that the fourth young master hated the young master for beating him with a leather whip in front of everyone, so he secretly hid some medicine that would scare the horse on his body, and then the horse was frightened, and the young master was injured. Fortunately, the auspicious person has his own natural appearance. Although the young master is injured, it is not life-threatening. The young master is the eldest son, but he has not yet asked for a title. The fourth young master has been favored recently. If the young master goes, the Yongwang Mansion You can guess who the prince will be." Lin Jue lowered his voice, pretending to be mysterious.

"Enn, I know that horse grass can scare horses, and only people who smell it often can smell it. Most people can't do it, but if a horse smells it, it will startle after a while." There happened to be a classmate I have always liked raising horses, and I am very familiar with these things.

When everyone heard this statement, they were a little vacillating, and felt that what they both said made sense.

Lin Jue silently examined everyone's expressions, and waved his hand indifferently: "Okay, these things have nothing to do with us, talk about it, listen to it, and it's over. Let's talk about yesterday's homework first, and let Master Have you finished writing the assigned article?"

When the article was mentioned, everyone returned to their seats dejectedly. Most of the students in the Imperial College can be said to be extremely intelligent, but they are no match for the perverted master. The questions they ask are getting more and more difficult every day.

Lin Jue waved his hand slightly, signaling Guan Qi to step forward, and Guan Qi stepped forward to grind the ink. Taking advantage of the skill of Guan Qi grinding the ink, Lin Jue said in a low voice: "In a while, you will go to the son of the world and tell him what happened just now. , We all underestimated the fourth young master, something happened just yesterday, and we made up such a joke today. Let him spread the words I said as soon as possible, and need evidence. "

Guanqi nodded: "Yes, I see."

Lin Jue leaned over to the classmate who spread the news at the beginning, and bumped his shoulder with his shoulder: "Hey, your news is so fast, but you are really capable, but the authenticity is not good, let's have a drink together at noon?"

"It's not some gossip, it's what my dad said this morning." After being underestimated, the man wrinkled his nose in displeasure: "It's absolutely true!"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong." Lin Jue readily admitted his mistake: "Then I can buy you a drink at noon to make amends."

"That's about the same. What's the point of calling out a few more people, just the two of us?" The man smiled happily.

Lin Jue nodded in agreement.

At the same time, in Prince Yong's Mansion, Princess Yan held a horsewhip and stepped on Shi Zili's personal servant: "Huh, where is your master? Call him out, I want to ask why my brother's injury has become a bitter trick." .”

Shi Zili came out in a hurry, his fingers were still stained with wet ink, and he smiled softly: "Why do you have time to come here, little sister?" As he spoke, he waved his left hand behind him, signaling the boy to call the prince over quickly, and his heart But secretly happy, the elder brother was injured in the past two days, the father took it for granted and ignored him, and was anxious to change this situation, now someone came to help.

"Huh, it seems that the fourth young master is having a good life! My eldest brother was injured and unconscious, but I still have the mind to practice calligraphy and painting, and then go to please my father?" Princess Yan's eyes are red, and every word is sloppy. People's hearts are pierced.How much Princess Yan usually likes this gentle and elegant uncle, but now she is so angry.Fortunately, I really regarded him as my elder brother, but I was really blind when he did such a heartless thing as murdering my brother.

Shi Zili never dared to take the blame: "Little sister is joking again, I was copying Buddhist scriptures to ask the Buddha to bless elder brother to recover soon. The injury of elder brother was only due to carelessness, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Hmph, you still ask the Buddha to bless your elder brother to recover soon? Are you so kind? It's a big joke in the world. I'm afraid I should ask God to let my elder brother die earlier. If it weren't for your hands and feet, how could my elder brother be injured?" Yan Yan The smile on the princess's face could already be called a sinister grin, and the fingers holding the whip were slightly white, one can imagine how much effort it took.

Shi Zili no longer faced each other with a smiling face, and said with a stern face: "Little sister, you have evidence. If you don't have evidence, you can't say this. What did I do? Didn't the elder brother accidentally fall off the horse?"

"I'll let you argue!" Princess Yan waved the whip in his hand directly: "Brother whipped you twice and still complain to your father? If you have the ability, you can go and sue now, and see if I don't beat you to death!"

Princess Yan really got angry, Shi Zili turned sideways slightly, dodging the whip: "What are you doing?"

"Hmph, see if you can still avoid this whip?" Princess Yan gritted her teeth, if she said that the last whip was aimed at her body, this one was aimed at her face.

Shi Zili moved his upper body back slightly, and reached out to grab the whip: "Enough, don't make trouble! If you do this again, even if you are my sister, I will not be polite."

"Hmph, who is your younger sister? My brother is the young master of Prince Yong's Mansion, the eldest son. What are you?" Princess Yan snorted coldly, and pulled back the whip vigorously, causing a bloody storm.

At this time, Concubine Liang hurried over with her maid, and when she entered the yard, she saw such a scene, she screamed, and almost fainted, she no longer cared about her usual gentle and charming image, she ran over with her skirt, feeling distressed Holding Shi Zili's right hand, that hand was already bloody, Concubine Liang scolded: "Girl is too much, Li'er is always your brother, how can you say that about him? It's too vicious, There are actually barbs on this whip, I would like to ask the empress if there is any reason for this?"

"When will a concubine who can't stand on the stage yell at the daughter-in-law in the young master's yard? There are really no rules, so let me teach you." The whip has been swung out again.

Shi Zili hurriedly stepped forward and turned around to help Concubine Liang block the whip. It has to be said that the barbs on the whip were indeed vicious, and even Shi Zili, who was extremely tolerant, couldn't help but groan.

"Stop!" Prince Yong finally came late, just in time to see the scene of Princess Yan whipping his elder brother and concubine, very annoyed.

Concubine Liang rolled her eyes, screamed, and just passed out in the maid's arms.

Prince Yong looked at everyone in the courtyard with a cold face, and said in a low voice, "All follow me!"

Princess Yan was swept over by her father's stern gaze, and couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive. She dropped the whip and followed in small steps.

I thought I was going back to the study, but the prince led everyone straight to Princess Yong.

The concubine was sorting out the accounts, and she was not surprised to see a group of people cheering.

"The fourth child is injured, go get someone to bandage him, don't stay here, the blood makes me dizzy." Wang Hao instructed while lying crookedly.

Concubine Liang's eyelids trembled slightly when she heard this, as if she wanted to wake up, she was pulled by Shi Zili, and she obediently did not move.

"Follow mother and concubine's order!" Shi Zili saluted neatly, pursed his lips, glanced at the prince, and said: "A Niang doesn't seem to be feeling well, can you let me take her back?"

The prince nodded, Shi Zili and Concubine Liang obediently retreated.

Only the prince, princess, Princess Yan and a group of servant girls were left in the room, and Princess Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The prince just heard it, a smile flashed in his eyes, but he asked seriously with a straight face: "Yan'er, that's your elder brother, how can you fight him?"

Princess Yan looked at the appearance of the old god Wangfei, and returned with her chest up: "What my daughter did today is what he did yesterday. He can kill his brother. Can't I whip him twice?"

"Bold!" The prince slapped the table vigorously, and the tea bowls on the table jumped with great strength: "Who told you that your eldest brother was injured by the fourth brother's hand? What is the evidence?"

Princess Yan was taken aback at first, but was even more unconvinced, and argued: "Isn't it? My elder brother can walk and ride a horse. He hasn't had any accidents in 20 years, but now something happened, but it happened on one day, saying that there is nothing tricky. , do ghosts believe it?"

The fingers of the prince were trembling all the time, and he pointed at Princess Yan: "Shut up, who taught you to talk to me like this, ah?" He stood up neatly: "Yan'er is a young offender, and she will be locked up for a month. , every day after dinner, I can only study the Four Books for Women, and cultivate myself." Then she said to the princess: "I will leave Yan'er to you, teach her well, what is it like now!?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Princess Yan and Princess Yan to reply, she got up and left, her hurried back seemed to be chasing after someone.

Princess Wang and Princess Yan looked at each other, and finally laughed out loud.For Princess Yan, beating his elder brother and concubine was just confinement, and the punishment was too drizzle.Looking at it this way, I am afraid that the father is also suspicious of the fourth brother.

The princess waved her hand: "Okay, you should stay at home honestly this month, and you are not allowed to go out. It just makes me worry."

Princess Yan leaned forward, nodded obediently, hugged Wangfei's arm, and asked sadly: "Mother Concubine, is it really the fourth brother's fault for the eldest brother's injury?"
