The eldest son of the concubine who crossed the red mansion

Chapter 23 Ruhai’s analysis of Yuxuan being taught

"I heard that the foster mother in Yu'er's courtyard was sent by Prince Qin's mansion?" Lin Ruhai called Lin Yuxuan to the study today, and asked straightforwardly.

"Yes." Lin Yuxuan knew that he couldn't hide it, so he simply confessed, "I had dinner at Zuixian Tower that day, but I didn't want to meet Prince Qin. He didn't tell me his identity, and his son only found out after saying goodbye later."

"Being a father doesn't mean that you are not allowed to associate with Prince Qin, but you have to remember that our Lin family has never participated in the struggle for the throne." Lin Ruhai coughed a few times and said solemnly.Lin Yuxuan raised his head and glanced at Lin Ruhai's thin and pale cheeks. The soreness in his heart slowly spread to his eyes, and he quickly lowered his head as if listening.

"Conglong Zhigong sounds good, but you should understand its danger even if you don't tell it as a father. Although the current emperor has his own mind, he will never allow the prince and ministers to form a party for personal gain. Back then, the second prince was because of his collusion with the prime minister. Conspiring to seize the throne was the reason why he was banned for life with a yellow belt by the Holy Majesty; the courtiers who conspired with him back then were also ransacked and exterminated. So you have to understand that it is not a good thing to get too close to the princes."

"My son knows. In fact, my son only told the old lady of the Jia family about finding a foster mother for my sister, but somehow it reached Prince Qin's ears. Fortunately, the two mothers did not explicitly say that they are Prince Qin." came out of the house." Lin Yuxuan felt that even if he had met Tu Qingze once, it was impossible for Tu Qingze to grasp the news and every move of the Lin family so quickly, there must be something strange about this matter.

"The Jia family?" Lin Ruhai snorted, "The old lady is really confused."

Lin Yuxuan choked for a moment, and asked after a while, "What does Daddy mean by that?"

"Three years ago in the show girl election, the Jia family sent the eldest girl to participate in the election, but she was accused of entering the Prince Qin's mansion. Now she is a concubine of Prince Qin. I am afraid that people from the Jia mansion will leak this matter to the prince. The concubine in the mansion listens." Lin Ruhai has been an official for many years, how can he not understand, "The Jia family has a good idea, the Rongguo Mansion sent a girl to the fourth prince, but the Ningguo Mansion has a close relationship with the fourteenth prince. Get close, and no matter which of these two wins, the Jia family will be able to maintain their prosperity and wealth."

"My son thinks this trick is really out of his mind." Lin Yuxuan said, "According to what my father said, the current emperor is a suspicious person, and the princes are no exception. Such a sloppy family, no matter where you are I'm afraid everyone can't bear it."

"Onlookers are clear, authorities are obsessed. Even if this is the case, there is no guarantee that they will not rush in." Lin Ruhai has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and he is well aware of the temptation of the word "rich". "So you have to be careful and don't get involved in these things."

"My son knows." Lin Yuxuan didn't intend to get involved in these things.

"My father has always wanted you to graduate from the examination, but now you are still in the filial piety period, and the situation in the court is unpredictable, so it is better to wait a few more years. Looking at it for the father, within five years, I am afraid that there will be a big change." It has changed a lot." Lin Ruhai stood up, walked to Lin Yuxuan and patted him on the shoulder before walking out of the study.

After Lin Yuxuan returned to the courtyard, he thought for a long time, and felt that his father probably got some information from the conversation with the officials of the same department, so he came to this inference.Now the Holy Majesty is paying more and more attention to the fourth prince, but after all, the fourteenth prince is the only surviving child of his favorite concubine Zhen Guifei, so the emperor will naturally not ignore it.

Although there are many sons of the Holy Father today, many of them died young.The first prince, the third prince, the fifth prince, the seventh prince, the ninth prince and the eleventh prince died before they were eight years old, and the second prince was imprisoned for treason. In fact, Tu Qingze is actually the oldest prince, who was born by the empress again. , and is therefore particularly valuable.The sixth prince and the eighth prince are born of noble people, and everything is out of the ordinary; the tenth prince is fond of literature, the twelfth prince is fond of martial arts, the thirteenth prince is chic, and has no desire for the throne. The remaining ten and seventeen The princes are still young.

"Master, the Rongguo Mansion sent people over." Seeing Lin Yuxuan thinking, Lin Hui couldn't bear to disturb him, but he remembered Lin Yuxuan's order to notify him whenever the Jia family came, so he had no choice but to come in and interrupt Lin Yuxuan pensive.

"Who was sent here?" Lin Yuxuan frowned unhappily—of course it wasn't directed at Lin Hui.

"It seems to be Nanny Lai next to Mrs. Jia, and she also brought a girl with her." Lin Hui replied.

"Let them wait in the flower hall." Lin Yuxuan intentionally left them alone for a while, "Ask Baozhu to make me a bowl of corn soup."

"Yes." Lin Hui lowered his head and smiled, and quickly called Baozhu.

Lai everyone sat in the flower hall and waited a little impatiently.She is Jia's mother's dowry, and everyone in the Rongguo Mansion called her "Nurse Lai" respectfully. It was just that Second Master Bao accidentally touched the Lin girl's hand. Crying is full of rules.Now that she came here on behalf of the old lady and left them here again, I'm afraid this is the real lack of rules and distance.

As soon as Lin Yuxuan walked in, he saw that everyone's eyes were not eyes and noses, so he sat down on the main seat with a flick of his robe.Seeing that the two servants didn't get up when they saw their master, Lin Hui immediately rolled his eyes and snorted.The voice was so loud that everyone Lai and the maid who followed changed their faces.

"I've seen Uncle Lin." Everyone Lai stood up and twitched his lips, "Brother Parrot, I haven't come to see Uncle Lin yet."

The maid in purple clothes hurriedly took a step forward and said, "Brother Parrot, please greet Uncle Lin."

parrot?Isn't it the girl Jiamu gave Lin Daiyu?Lin Yuxuan remained calm, smiled gently, and said, "Get up." Then he turned his head and said to everyone Lai, "Why is Mammy here today?"

"I just followed the old lady's order to deliver something to Miss Lin." Everyone Lai looked around, "Why don't you see Miss Lin?"

Lin Yuxuan picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said with a smile: "My sister is sick, she just took medicine and fell asleep, so I can't come out."

"So that's it." Everyone Lai smiled stiffly, "Then why did Uncle Lin come so late, but is this the way the Lin family treats guests?"

"Our uncle just had something to do, so we came late." Seeing that Lin Yuxuan didn't answer, Lin Hui replied, "Furthermore, the Rongguo Mansion didn't send a post to our mansion saying that we would pay a visit, so how can we blame our lord? Mammy is nothing more than a slave, how can she have the face to criticize our uncle?"

Everyone Lai hadn't eaten such a hold for a long time, and he almost lost his breath. Brother Parrot stepped forward to help everyone Lai sit down, then turned around and said, "Master, don't be angry, what can Nanny Lai say?" They are also the people around the old lady, at least the uncle should give the old lady some face."

"You can speak well." Lin Yuxuan stroked the jade wrench finger in his hand, with a bright and sarcastic smile on his face, "Well, I'll just give the old lady some face."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin." Yingge was startled by Lin Yuxuan's gaze, lowered his head and said in a low voice.

Lai finally regained his composure, thinking that he would definitely sue Lin Yuxuan in front of the old lady, so he calmed down and said, "That day, Master Ribao offended Ms. Lin for some reason and made Ms. Lin run away sad. I'm back. What the old lady meant was to ask Miss Lin to go over to the mansion. The second master Bao is going to hold a banquet to make amends. Although Miss Lin is ill, we can make a decision first. When the girl recovers, we can send someone to say Just one sound."

"There is no need to hold a banquet to make amends. My sister is afraid that she won't want to see Second Master Bao." Lin Yuxuan seemed to have heard something funny, and curled his lips in disdain, "Actually, why is my sister sick, Mrs. I know better than anyone, why do you have to be hypocritical at this moment? I can see what kind of person Bao Erye is. If I go again, I'm afraid I will be even angrier. It's better not to go. Please help me Tell the old lady, for the sake of my sister's health, there is no need to make amends."

"What does Uncle Lin mean by this!" Everyone Lai was so angry at Lin Yuxuan's words, "The old lady was kind enough to reconcile with Miss Lin on behalf of Second Master Bao, but the uncle stopped me! I need to know that the Rongguo Mansion is Miss Lin's maternal grandfather. Home."

"It is precisely because Jia's house is my sister's maternal ancestral home that I endured so much." Lin Yuxuan turned his face when he said that he turned his face, and swept the tea cup on the table to the ground. In half a year, people in your Jia family started to wear red and green, so you don’t even care about your wife! According to national etiquette, your Jia family is still guilty of unfilial piety. It’s nice to say that your wife is an old lady. The heart of my heart, I still forgot it in a blink of an eye."

Everyone Lai's face turned white and red, but he didn't know how to explain.

"I respect the old lady, but the dignity of my Lin family can't be trampled on at will. Your house can disobey national etiquette, but my Lin family can't. My sister hates the red robes of the second master Bao, and she bears in mind the rules of men and women's defense. You should never allow yourself to do unfilial and unrighteous things, and please your family not to force my sister."

Everyone Lai has been with Jia Mu for many years. Although he was abandoned several times, he still calmed down and asked Parrot to take out the brocade box: "This is for the girl from the old lady. The girl apologized. And Brother Parrot, the old lady wanted her to serve the girl by her side, and asked Uncle Lin to accept it for her."

"Then I would like to thank the old lady. It's just that there are enough people around my sister, so let's take this girl home." Lin Yuxuan raised his eyebrows, "Baozhu, accept the brocade box. Lin Hui, see off the guests. "

Lai everyone's hands trembled, told Brother Ying to put down the brocade box, turned around and left, scolded and cursed Lin Yuxuan in his heart, determined to go back and sue in front of Jiamu, and told him to teach him a lesson !

"Master, is it really okay for you to do this?" Baozhu was a little worried. After all, the Jia family is also the head of the four major families. Will her uncle offend the four major families at once by doing this?

"It's okay, it's better for our mansion and Jia's mansion to break off the relationship quickly." Lin Yuxuan recalled Lin Ruhai's words today, "Whether it's the Jia family or the four major families, people who are not smart don't live long."
