"I heard that the two of you were born in Gusu. Since childhood, you have been known as studious in your clan. You have entered the imperial examination all the way from the rural examination, and now you are staying in the Imperial Academy. You have a bright future. Congratulations to the two of you, my son?"

Raising his glass again, Crown Prince Zhongshun had a hint of contempt in his eyes, but skillfully blocked it with the wine glass.

The two people on the opposite side were busy drinking with each other, but they didn't dare to say anything else, and didn't say much else.

Prince Zhongshun was even more contemptuous, put down his wine glass and went straight to the point.

"My son heard that when you entered Beijing, you went to the Lin Mansion to seek refuge, but were turned away. Is there such a thing?"

There are hundreds of people who come to Beijing to take part in the imperial examination. Except for the inspectors, who else will pay attention to every move of each candidate?How could he know so clearly?

The two looked at each other, and Lin Feng cupped his hands on the left.

"My son, we are relatives with Mr. Lin, and we did come to stay at the house. But Mr. Lin was so upright that he didn't allow us to go in to avoid suspicion."

"What's sober and upright? It's just for fame. Every time a student enters the capital for the palace examination, who doesn't rely on relatives and friends? Why is he so noble?"

The sarcasm was full of sarcasm, which made the two of them stunned.

I thought Prince Zhongshun had a good relationship with Lin Ruhai, but it seems that the two of them got the situation wrong.Sure enough, there is no such thing as a good banquet. If I had known this, it would be better to refuse.

Lin Feng's face was stiff.

"My son is joking, under the emperor's sage, who in the court is not upright?"

I don't know when to say it, but it is definitely right to praise His Majesty for his wisdom.Lin Feng and Lin Yue had the same awkward smiles.

This reaction is also considered clever, but the two of them have too little experience, and it is too fake to say it.

Prince Zhongshun looked at them with a sincere expression.

"Master Lin is naturally fair and honest, and this son is not as good as him. I invite the two of you here today because I intend to make friends. I wonder if the two of you will show respect?"

"Thank you for your love, my son. I can't wait for a small official in the Imperial Academy. Since His Royal Highness appreciates it, how dare you refuse?"

Racking their brains to come up with a few words on the scene, they managed to fool the banquet, and when they came out of the palace, the two of them were already covered in cold sweat.

"From the time I took office to now, I still return to the palace for the first time to have a banquet. Is there anything we can be seen by the prince of the palace?"

"Who can say that? Ordinary children study hard for their future and survival. In their eyes, they are just chasing fame and fortune. Even a corporal who is a virtuous corporal can't be respectful to you and me. I'm afraid there is some kind of conspiracy. We pull in."

Those who can participate in the palace examination will definitely not be fools. Even if they don't understand the dangers of the officialdom, they will not be so stupid that they will easily believe what others say.The two looked at each other and saw wry smiles on each other's faces.

"Even if we know that they have a conspiracy, what can we do? We even know about going to the Lin Mansion when we entered Beijing. We either stare at you or at Master Lin. Where should we hide?"

"Old Mr. Weidao said that the capital city is not as good as everyone imagined. If that's the case, let's wait and see what happens. It can't be a trap specially designed for the two of us, right?"

After the palace examination, they successfully entered the Hanlin Academy. For the students of the world, they have already flown to the branches.As everyone knows, they were manipulated by others in the capital, and they had no power to fight back.

The two walked away hand in hand, and the sweat from their bodies was blown away by the breeze.In the palace, Prince Zhongshun is reporting to Prince Zhongshun.

"It's just two handymen who work in Hanlin. Just a few casual words scare them so much that they dare not move. Seeing that they are useless, I didn't tell them what happened. I just waited to find them when needed." Same, so as not to frighten the snake."

Thinking of the fearful appearance of the two of them, Prince Zhongshun couldn't hide his disgust.

"In the past, only Dao Chengqian was born in the Jianghu, but he didn't want to be inferior to him who was born in the Lin family."

Prince Zhongshun was noncommittal and only asked.

"Your Majesty trusts the Inspectorate, you have to be very careful, don't startle the snake and get caught by them."

"Father, don't worry, even if they think about it, they will never think of who betrayed them."

The court was full of turmoil, and the Wei Mansion had just withdrawn from the center of the turmoil, when another happy event happened.

Tanchun gave birth to her daughter safely after a day and a night, and Wei Ruolan has just been promoted to the second prize army. The child has surpassed almost all Jia's daughters in terms of status since birth, and there are constant congratulatory people in the house.

Lin Yun and Lin Daiyu also came to have a look with presents.

"It turns out that the baby was born like this. It's really ugly."

Carefully fiddled with her wrinkled face twice, Lin Yun withdrew his fingers in disgust.

"Wen Po said that it will take a few more months to look good. You look down on other people's children, but in the future when you have a baby, don't you think you'll also hate it?"

Tanchun didn't feel offended, and was in the mood to joke.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yun did not hide it, and quickly admitted.

"If you are born like this, of course! Could it be that an ugly monster is not an ugly monster if it changes its identity, and a beauty is not a beauty if it is another identity? I just look at the face."

"Fortunately, our sisters are all good-looking, otherwise, even relatives would not be able to do it."

Lin Daiyu took the opportunity to tease him.The three of them chatted while teasing the child. Tanchun didn't ask until the child was crying and was carried out by the nanny to nurse him.

"You guys came over just a few days after I gave birth, but do you have something to say?"

"You are overthinking. Come to see it in advance, just because I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with the full moon wine."

As Lin Yun was talking, he waved and ordered someone to bring in the gift and put it on the table.

"I'm going to Fujian at the beginning of next month. I thought I could catch up with your family's full moon wine, but I didn't expect it to be a few days behind. But I brought all the gifts, don't say that I'm an aunt who reneged."

On the table are gold collars, jade locks and other things, which are the most suitable full moon gifts.Tanchun didn't care to watch, just stared at her.

"Leave next month? Didn't you say earlier that it will be in autumn? When did you change it?"

Looking at the person in front of him, Tanchun recalled in a trance that everyone was having fun in the Grand View Garden, and now, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

"My sisters are getting older. I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. Since I got married, my sisters at home can't see each other. Anyway, there are still you, but now you have to leave, and the capital will become more deserted in the future."

"There is always a banquet in the world. In the future, you will have children around your knees. I am afraid that even if I am in the capital, you will not bother to come and go."

Just as sadness welled up in my heart, it was broken by Lin Yun's two words.Tanchun raised his eyes and stared.

"There's no need to talk about it later, I don't want to talk to you now!"

Soon the nanny brought the child back, and they said goodbye after a while.

"Third sister is still in confinement, please pay attention to your body, we should go back."

When the confinement period is over, Lin Yun has already left for Fujian, and I don't know when we will meet next time.Tanchun propped himself up and sat back on the bed slumped until he could no longer see their figures, muttering to himself.

"It's good to leave, the capital is a sad place."

Sister Lin Yun didn't hear her, and came out in a small sedan chair from the backyard, and changed into a large sedan chair from the Lin family's house, and she didn't find Jia Baoyu standing in the corner in front of the door.

Since Tanchun gave birth, he lingered in front of the door every day but dared not go in. He came again today, but stared at the word "Lin" on the sedan chair in a daze.

"The sedan chair of the Lin family is Sister Lin, Sister Lin!"

After trotting for a few steps, seeing the sedan chair going further and further away, his expression was in a trance.

"Sister Lin didn't see me, it doesn't matter, that's fine, what right do I have to appear in front of Sister Lin?"

Looking down at the ordinary brocade clothes on his body, and then at the specifications of the Lin family sedan, he turned his head and walked back with a wry smile.When I got home, I saw Qiguan there.

"Second Master Bao, I came here to look for you today. I heard the maid said that you were not here, so I waited here."

"It's not the second master Bao, just call me Baoyu. Now you are the only one who still treats me as a friend. Please go in."

After all, they are biological brothers and sisters, Tanchun has never treated him badly, even though he never took him to the Wei Mansion, he bought him a small house with three or five maids in it.Although not as rich and comfortable as before, it is definitely better than most ordinary people.

The two went to drink tea in the inner room. Qiguan waited for the girl to retreat, and approached Jia Baoyu to lower his voice.

"I went to Zhongshun Palace to serve yesterday. I heard the prince said that he would deal with the Wei family and the Lin family. Now that you are following the third girl, you should make plans early."

"What, you want to deal with the Lin family?"

Not hearing the first half of the sentence at all, Jia Baoyu eagerly grabbed Qiguan's shoulder with his mind full of Lin Daiyu.

"Why did Prince Zhongshun deal with them? They didn't commit any crimes, and they didn't do any evil. How could they offend him?"

"Second Master Bao, don't get excited. I just heard Wang Ye say a few words, and I don't know the details. I just reminded you because I was worried about hurting you. If you want to know, I will go to the palace to serve you next time. Investigate."

Qiguan introduced Jia Baoyu as a confidant, and paid more attention to everything related to him, and it was because of him that he bought Xiren back.

"Since the second master Bao cares so much, even if I can't help, I will try my best to find out. Let me leave first, and I will tell you when I have news."

Qiguan bid farewell, leaving Jia Baoyu haunted.

"Uncle Lin has never done anything wrong. If the Lin Mansion is copied, what will Sister Lin do? No, I have to find a way."

Walking around the room for a long time, suddenly thought of something, turned around and hurried out.

After walking two streets, he stopped at the gate of another second-entry house, hesitating.Although this house is far away from his yard, its layout is similar in size.Looking at it, it seems to be carved out of a mold.

"The second master is here, and the third master is studying inside."

When Caiyun came back from shopping, she saw Jia Baoyu in a daze, so she hurriedly led him in to pour tea.

After a while, Jia Huan came over with disgust on his face.

"Third sister has already bought you a yard, what are you doing here?"

They used to have a bad relationship, and now they have no scruples.But Jia Baoyu was worried about the matter and didn't want to pester him.

"I came to you on a serious matter. Tomorrow, when you go to see the third sister, you say you bought a gift for the child, and then tell her that Prince Zhongshun is going to deal with the Lin family, and ask her to find a way to send a message to the Lin family. Otherwise, sister Lin will be in danger .”

"I said why you came here to quarrel with me, it was related to the Lin family."

Jia Huan sneered, and sat on the stool as firmly as Mount Tai.

"If I don't go, whoever wants to go will go!"

"Now is not the time to lose your temper. I can't wait to ask Third Sister to find a way to be serious!"

The more anxious Jia Baoyu became, the colder Jia Huan looked.

Seeing that he was about to come and pull, Jia Huan jumped off the stool and spit on the ground.

"If you have time to take care of the Lin family, you might as well take care of yourself! You and I are all supported by the third sister. What if the third sister is implicated? You know how to spend money on wine every day, and you want to cause trouble for the third sister. If you are able to burn down the Zhongshun Palace, wouldn't it be clean?"

Anyway, I have already torn my face, there is nothing I can't say, Jia Huan smashed the jar.

"You have called me selfish since I was a child, and I am not a man. I am selfish. If you love it, go to you, I won't go!"
