The Lin Family of Gusu in the Red Mansion

Yue Ming and Yun Miao left on the second day of the Lantern Festival, and the Lin family seemed to have returned to the peaceful days at the beginning, but no one knew how many torrents and undercurrents there were underneath.

"Girl, the master and the young master are discussing matters in the study, you'd better go in later." Lin Duo stood guard five feet away from the study, and stopped her when he saw Lin Su.

Lin Su frowned, what's going on today, you must know that her father will never betray her in anything, let alone what she can't know about talking with her younger brother.

With a slight smile, Lin Sugu pretended not to care, and handed the food box in his hand to Lin Duo: "I'm just here to deliver some snacks, if daddy and younger brother really have something important to do, then I won't bother you. Just send it in for me."

"Yes, aunt..." Before Lin Duo came back to his senses, he became dizzy for a while. Before he could fall to the ground, Lin Su supported him and made him lie down with difficulty. A silver needle.

After Lin Su finished all this, she hurried to the study. Dad must be busy, right?It wasn't that she was suspicious, but that she had to be careful after what happened on the Lantern Festival. In addition, there were problems with the hidden guards.She didn't doubt Zhou Duo, but she was afraid that Zhou Duo didn't know anything but would stop her with all his heart. You must know that Lin Duo has always been ignorant and would only stick to orders. That's why Lin Qingze was so relieved to let him do something flexible The reason for the strong but highly confidential task.

"Father means that Yue Ming is Your Majesty?" Lin Ke was a little surprised, but he felt it was natural. He knew that the man would not be a simple person. Now it's just a milk doll, but I didn't expect him to see it.

"Then why did you tell me? Even if he is today, I am just a grassroots person. What use is it to him?" Although he was surprised, what Lin Ke valued most was not Yue Ming's current status, but It was Lin Qingze who informed him of this.

Hearing this, Lin Qingze couldn't help but feel pain in his mouth. This child is really smart, but he is always jealous of talents, and his beauty is unlucky.I can only disclose Yue Ming's identity to him, and he will know what I mean by this. How can I expect him to do such a secret thing.

"Because there's something you need to do, even if it's not now, I'm afraid it won't take a few years." Lin Qingze closed his eyes, there were some things he really didn't want to talk about.

"Is it related to His Majesty? Or appointed by His Majesty?" Since I have told myself Yue Ming's true identity, but now I have something to do, then there is only one possibility. This matter must have been brought up by His Majesty, otherwise Dad It won't be like that hesitating to talk.

When Lin Qingze heard this, his heart was filled with desolation, and his eyes almost turned red.

"Yes. You must not know that when you are young, there must be some shadows behind those in power, so the person hiding in the dark will help them solve the unsolvable things, and it is the same today. That place is called the Dark Night Pavilion. This place It is managed by Yun Miao, but he is really incompetent, so he must entrust someone to help him. This person must be absolutely reliable, and must be able to grow with the Dark Night Pavilion in order to fully understand and control the Dark Night Pavilion. Your Majesty will give you six years. You can keep learning, but after six years, you must independently control the entire Dark Night Pavilion and remove all obstacles for His Majesty in the dark night." After Lin Qingze finished speaking, he picked up the cup and drank tea. In fact, only he himself knew that he was guilty. I really dare not look at Lin Ke's eyes.This child grew up in the darkness and was oppressed by the darkness, but now he is asked to do those dirty things, how can you tell him to be willing.

Lin Ke stood there quietly, his mind was full of the dark past.

He is not afraid of fighting openly and secretly in the officialdom, because all he has to deal with are those who want to deal with him. He is not afraid to go to the battlefield to fight desperately, because all he kills are those who violated his country. He has never been a good person, but if he really controls the Dark Night Pavilion, then among the people he wants to kill may be innocent children like himself, or just because of the emperor's suspicion, he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let a single person go , His hands will be stained with the blood of grievances, he is not a saint, but he is definitely not a villain.

The atmosphere in the whole room was stagnant, like the most gloomy and hot day, making people breathless.

Lin Qingze looked at the young man who didn't speak for a long time, and his face was getting paler and paler, with mixed emotions in his heart.

Lin Su froze in place, her body still kept her ears pressed against the door, her hands and feet were abnormally cold, not because of the cold temperature, but because of her heart.

No wonder her father wouldn't let her in. If she really saw her brother struggling with her own eyes, she would definitely object violently.

Walking back in a daze, Lin Su didn't even know how she got back to Mingyue Pavilion.

"Girl, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Liu Ying looked at Lin Su, who was a little dazed, and asked anxiously, "Why don't I go see a doctor. "

At this moment, Lin Su finally woke up, and grabbed Liu Ying, if she was allowed to go, then it would be fine.

"Stop quickly, silly girl, I'm a doctor myself, so I don't need to look for it." Lin Susheng stopped Liu Ying in his tracks.

Liu Ying still looked at Lin Su worriedly, as if she was trying to make sure if Lin Su was really sick.

"You go out first, don't tell anyone about this matter today, even if the old man asks, he will say nothing, I want to take a rest, let's go down first." Waved Liu Ying down, Lin Su was completely paralyzed.

Lying on the couch, Lin Su felt her heart was bleeding, gurgling out, more and more, more and more.

She didn't listen to Lin Ke's final answer, and she didn't know whether Lin Ke agreed or refused, but she knew that no matter whether Lin Ke agreed or not, he had decided on the matter of the Dark Night Pavilion, because that person was A king, he will not consider other people's ideas, as long as he wants you to do it, you will do it no matter how unwilling you are.

If the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die.

Lin Su suddenly hated her, hated this era, hated the imperial power, hated the emperor, but also hated her for being unable to do anything, because she is a woman, no matter how capable you are, the men's battlefield is still not something you can intervene .

Yes, she can't do anything, can't change anything, except lying here feeling sorry for Lin Ke, except that she will feel even more distressed in the future.

She is not Mary Suwen's time-traveling heroine, who can get what she wants, and can turn the world upside down with just one thought. She is in the red building, in this complete feudal era, in this era when women are only men's vassals, she Nothing can help Lin Ke.

Wipe off the tears on her face, she is sometimes the eldest girl of the Lin family, but no one knows what has changed.

"By God's blessing, the emperor summoned: Lin Qingze, the governor of the river, will change the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, and he will take up his post in Beijing in April. There must be no mistakes." With the high-pitched voice of the father-in-law from the capital, an imperial decree descended from the sky, and Lin Qingze also came from outside. Fang became a Beijing official.

"Thank you for your grace." A group of people from the Lin family kowtowed and kowtowed to the ground. Lin Qingze received the imperial edict, feeling like a fish drinking water, knowing whether it is warm or not.

Lin Su knelt down expressionlessly, this is the way of this era, the royal family is like this, even if he gives you death, you have to shout: "Thank you, Majesty Long En."

"Daddy, are we leaving now?" Standing on the bow of the boat, Lin Su looked back at Gusu City, which had already grown a little bit, and there was a wave in his eyes. Finally, he was going to leave the peaceful Gusu and go to the land of trouble? .

"Yes, but we have to go to Yangzhou first." Lin Qingze patted his daughter on the shoulder, "I'm afraid your aunt will die, I don't know if Ke'er wants to see her, but I will at least take him there Yangzhou, anyway, we still have more time."

"I don't think Ke'er would want to see him." Lin Su smiled, and suddenly she wanted to ask Lin Ke if he agreed that day, but she swallowed it abruptly, so what if she asked.

When Lin Qingze saw Lin Su's hesitant appearance, he understood.

"Su'er wants to ask about the Dark Night Pavilion?" Lin Qingze's heart was clear. He couldn't bear to deceive this pair of children. You don't think second-guessing."

Lin Su lowered her eyes, so her father already knew about it.

"Ke'er, did you agree?" Looking up, Lin Su's eyes showed a hint of forbearance.

"He said, 'Your order is hard to break. I will do what I should do. However, no one can force me to do what I should not do.'" Recalling Lin Ke's appearance when he said this sentence, Lin Qingze was in a daze for a while. , That is the decision of a strong man to sever his wrist.

"Father, I hate him." Lin Su couldn't hold back anymore, and said it all at once. It was self-evident who he was.

"Don't talk nonsense, that person will not allow us to criticize." Even though he said so, why did Su'er feel a little happy when he said that sentence.

"Sister, don't hate me, no one can force me." The clear voice suddenly sounded, Lin Su turned around and saw his smiling brother, and his eyes turned red.

The implication is that it is willing.

Is it the land of the king in the whole world, and the soldiers who lead the land are the king's ministers.

In just a few days, the child seemed to have grown up a lot all of a sudden, became more restrained, and became more able to protect himself.But this is a cruel way of growing up.

"Ke'er, how about my sister cooking your favorite food every day to coax you?" Lin Su smiled when she saw Lin Ke wipe away her tears. No matter what, she wanted to guard this child, guard her father, and guard her. this home.

"Sister..." Lin Ke's tone was a little helpless. Is my sister's actions clearly coaxing a three-year-old child?

"Hahaha, Ke'er, you are so cute."

Lin Qingze looked at the children who were laughing and making a fuss, maybe things were not as bad as he thought, or maybe, his own children understood the cruelty of life too early, and learned to be sensible too early, his father is incompetent.
