[Red Mansion] Reborn Lin Ruhai

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and disaster relief in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River is in full swing.

Zhang Huai's ability to handle affairs has been proven once again. Usually, Lin Ruhai and Xiao Zhelin only need to say a general idea, and Zhang Huai can handle it comprehensively, and even the common people generally praise it.As Lin Ruhai remembered, after the flood, there were no major disasters in the south of the Yangtze River. Through measures such as dredging the river and guiding the water flow, the number of puddles that can be seen everywhere on the ground has decreased a lot.The fields are almost ready for sowing, and the seeds have been planted in many places. In a few months, the first bumper harvest after the flood will be ushered in.

Recently, Lin Ruhai suddenly noticed that Xiao Zhelin was busy a lot, and sometimes he didn't see anyone for a long time, or he and Feng Sicheng chatted in the study and didn't come out for a long time.Having said that, Xiao Zhelin still spent most of his time in front of Lin Ruhai, but compared to the previous moments, it was a little less matching.Lin Ruhai might not have felt it a few days ago, but it just so happened that the disaster relief work has gone smoothly recently, and Zhang Huai was outside to take care of it, and he had a lot of leisure, so he suddenly realized that Xiao Zhelin had become busy.

Lin Ruhai knew in his heart that Xiao Zhelin, as the king of a country, might not be able to be at leisure even though he was traveling in modest clothes.He simply didn't care about him, he read books, admired flowers in his spare time, or went outside with Xiao Lingwei in his spare time, living a leisurely and leisurely life.Occasionally, Xiao Zhelin bumped into him when he went out, and most of them would follow.Xiao Lingwei was worried about the presence of the emperor's brother at first, so he didn't dare to act presumptuously. After a long time, his courage gradually grew, so he led Lin Ruhai to wander around.

In the early morning of this day, there was a cool breeze and steam.Lin Ruhai was sitting idle in the garden, when Xiao Lingwei came over, looked left and right, and made sure that Lin Ruhai was alone, then strode over and said in a low voice: "Ruhai, why are you alone today, where is my brother?" People like Meng Buli are anxious and anxious all day long, it's so inextricable that it makes one's teeth ache, more precisely, his brother is very clingy, so it's strange not to see him today!

"He said he wanted to dance the sword, so he went back to get the sword." Lin Ruhai reached out and turned a page of the book without raising his head.

"Really?" Xiao Lingwei opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then said happily: "Brother Huang's swordsmanship is amazing. I saw it a few times when I was young. It's really wonderful! But later, Brother Huang seldom danced swords. Goodbye, I have no regrets in this life..."

Lin Ruhai also became interested when he heard it, put down the scroll, put one hand on the stone table in front of him, and asked with a smile: "Is it really that good?"

Xiao Lingwei nodded repeatedly and said: "Of course it is so, you will know after a while." Not everyone can watch his brother's sword dance, and he is also in the light of Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai really wanted to say that he didn't know martial arts, even if he looked at it, he couldn't see the way, but seeing Xiao Lingwei's expectant face, he had no choice but to let it go.Unexpectedly, when Xiao Zhelin drew his sword and danced, Lin Ruhai was stunned with just one glance.At that time, the garden was lush and lush, with towering vegetation and brilliant flowers. Xiao Zhelin was born with extraordinary power, holding a long sword and standing among the clumps of tall bamboos, exuding a kind of majestic power, which undoubtedly revealed his nobility. .

He smiled slightly at Lin Ruhai, then drew his sword, and the sword energy struck, rolling up the residual leaves all over the sky.Every movement slowed down and appeared in Lin Ruhai's eyes. He slowly raised his sword to his chest, and then suddenly thrust forward. , which is dazzling.Xiao Lingwei couldn't help clapping his hands, although Lin Ruhai was not as obvious as him, he couldn't help admiring in his heart.

Lin Ruhai was watching intently, when suddenly the blade turned and became extremely fierce, like a gust of wind, like a huge wave, like piercing clouds piercing through the sun, quite like opening and closing.Suddenly Xiao Zhelin jumped up suddenly, and with a swipe of the long sword in the air, the rustling green leaves fluttered down.Xiao Zhelin withdrew his posture, lowered his hands slowly, and the green leaves fluttered on his body one after another.There was no sound at that time, Lin Ruhai couldn't help opening his eyes wide, watching Xiao Zhelin walking slowly with a smile on his face.

"Why, is Ruhai surprised?" Xiao Zhelin touched Lin Ruhai's face and smiled.

Lin Ruhai nodded subconsciously, and suddenly remembered that it was outside, so she couldn't help taking a step back, and looked at Xiao Zhelin reproachfully: "Don't make any moves, and don't look at the occasion!"

Xiao Zhelin laughed and threw the sword to Chen Zhong, then took the towel from Chen Zhong and wiped the sweat off his forehead, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, there's no one around!"

Lin Ruhai shook his hand, what did he say, isn't Chen Zhong a human, isn't Xiao Lingwei a human?

Xiao Zhelin smiled, pulled Lin Ruhai to sit down, took the teacup from Chen Zhong and handed it over, saying: "This is the Dahongpao that was just delivered, didn't you say that this tea is good, I made it in the morning, and now it should be It's also excellent, eat and see, and try my skills, how is it better than Chen Zhong?" Lin Ruhai picked it up, and Xiao Zhelin turned back to Xiao Lingwei and said, "Stop standing, you can sit too!"

Lin Ruhai took a sip of tea, looked up and saw Xiao Zhelin looking at him expectantly with wide-open eyes, then covered the smile on the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "It's not that bad..." Xiao Zhelin snatched the cup before he finished speaking. Lin Ruhai was about to take it back, Xiao Zhelin put his hands back, turned his head and drank it with his neck upturned, and repeatedly praised: "Good tea, good tea!"

"You..." Lin Ruhai slapped the table, and was about to explode, but Xiao Lingwei had no choice but to stop laughing.But he couldn't help pinching the soft flesh on Xiao Zhelin's waist. He really couldn't tolerate it. This guy is a bastard who pushes his feet. Let's see how to deal with him when he goes back!Thinking of Lin Ruhai ignoring Xiao Zhelin in a fit of anger, he only talked to Xiao Lingwei about anecdotes outside.

Just as he was talking, a servant suddenly came to report that someone outside claimed to be the master's family and asked to see the master.Lin Ruhai knew it was his clan members in Suzhou, and he went to pay respects to the ancestral temple as soon as he was free, and these clan members also met.At this moment, although I don't know why someone came to look for it in just a few days, but no matter what, they are from the same clan, so I ordered the servant to take him to a small hall beside him.

The servant took the order and went away, when Feng Sicheng came to invite Xiao Zhelin, Lin Ruhai went back to his room and changed his clothes, when he came out Xiao Lingwei was already waiting at the door, so he had to take him with him.The one who came today was a younger brother from a distant place of his, named Lin Shichong, the second child in the family. Lin Ruhai had met him several times in his early years, so he had some impressions.But seeing this person suddenly, Lin Ruhai was still surprised.There is no other reason. Anyone who sees a nose crying and rushing towards him will be horrified and surprised!

"Brother, just help me! Otherwise, I won't be able to survive..."

Lin Ruhai hurriedly asked someone to support him, let him sit down on a chair beside him, and asked him why he was so sad.Lin Shichong was still crying, and he explained the reason intermittently for a long time.

It turns out that Lin Shichong is over forty years old, and has only one daughter under his knees, who is only four years old.Yesterday when he had nothing to do, Lin Shichong took his daughter to play in front of the door, and when he didn't want to, he turned around to get something, but his daughter disappeared.At first, I thought it was a child who was greedy for fun, so I ran to play by myself, but I didn't expect to find no one for a long time.Lin Shichong was in a hurry just now, and asked his neighbors to look for him for a long time, but he didn't see him. Thinking that Lin Ruhai is now in Suzhou, and he is an imperial envoy, who is more capable than ordinary people like them, so he came to trouble him to look for it.

After Lin Ruhai heard this, he couldn't help sighing, no wonder Lin Shi was so anxious to judge others by himself, if Daiyu was lost, he would certainly not be much better than this person.If it is for the sake of gaining benefits, he will definitely not care about it, but this matter of human life is at stake, he cannot ignore it, so he said: "Second brother, don't worry, I will send someone to look for it right away, and you will search nearby when you go back. If there is news, I will let you Someone will tell you."

Lin Shichong was so grateful that he left with a thousand gratitude.

"This is weird! When I went to the countryside a few days ago, I heard from people there that a child seemed to have been lost too..." Xiao Lingwei suddenly said.

Lin Ruhai frowned after hearing this: "You mean it wasn't a coincidence?"

Xiao Lingwei nodded, and said with frowned eyebrows: "I heard that in times of disaster, there are often kidnappers who steal young girls and sell them. I'm afraid it's the same this time. Snatching people's flesh and blood, separating parents and children, this kind of kidnapper is the most unconscionable , Harmful people, this matter must be thoroughly investigated, but it must not be tolerated..."

"That's the truth. I'll send someone to investigate right away. It's only been a day now. If it's true, the kidnapper hasn't gone far. After all, four or five-year-old children are too young to sell people immediately. Since they are such habitual offenders , there must be a place where these children are hidden, and we will send people to follow them quietly and wipe them out in one fell swoop in their lair, so as to completely eliminate future troubles." Lin Ruhai said.

Xiao Lingwei took it very seriously, and offered to go to various places to inquire in the past few days. How many people seem to lose their children like this?The two negotiated and arranged the manpower. As soon as they left the small hall and walked to the garden, they saw several brightly dressed and charming maidservants circling around Xiao Zhelin, and one of them kept rubbing against Xiao Zhelin's side.

Lin Ruhai watched coldly, with the corners of his eyes slightly raised. When Xiao Zhelin danced his sword just now, there were a few girls hiding behind the crabapple flowers, and they probably were these few.Thinking about it, he glanced at Xiao Zhelin again, he was already very old, but after dancing a few sets of sword skills, it really made a few little girls happy?

Xiao Lingwei raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, and pushed Lin Ruhai: "Aren't you jealous?" His imperial brother's jealous jar was one that if others looked at Lin Ruhai more, they would want to tear him apart.

"Am I that stingy? Besides, I trust him..." Lin Ruhai smiled lightly, that guy couldn't be beaten away with a stick, so he had nothing to worry about.However, Lin Ruhai's face turned cold, her body was tainted with the breath of a woman, even if she washed her [-] times tonight, she wouldn't even think about sleeping in his bed.

"That's true..." Xiao Lingwei nodded, but later, when he heard that his brother had slept in the study for three days in a row, he realized that Lin Ruhai didn't say anything, and he was still jealous.But his imperial brother is too wifely slave!

Xiao Lingwei sighed, he really didn't expect their Xiao family to have a love affair.A few days ago, he did everything possible to find out from Chen Zhong that his imperial brother had fallen in love with Lin Ruhai more than ten years ago.No wonder the harem has had nothing to do for many years, feeling that his imperial brother is guarding his lover...
