[Red Mansion] Reborn Lin Ruhai

Jinling is worthy of being a prosperous place in the south. When all the places were still in depression, this busy city was already bustling with people, just like before the disaster.Carriers and peddlers on the streets come and go, if one ignores the hungry and cold people shivering in the corner of the city wall, it would be a peaceful and prosperous world.

In years of famine and calamity, these are inevitable. The imperial court has asked officials from all over the country to count such refugees who fled or wandered outside, register them in the register, and give them silver taels to return to their original places.For all the people who returned, the government not only gave them their original land, but also gave each of them two taels of silver as comfort money on the basis of their head.Now, since the implementation of this measure, more and more common people have spontaneously registered with the government.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! Blocking the way of our uncle, so that you can't eat and walk around!"

A few strong boys shouted and waved their horsewhip mercilessly. After hearing this, people ran away or retreated to both sides of the road.There are old people with handicapped legs and feet or playful children. If they move slowly, they will inevitably be whipped. For a while, there are old people's ouching and children's crying on the road.Even the resentful eyes cast by the mother holding the child, the servants ignored them and continued to clear the way.Not long after, a dozen young servants walked over, surrounded by a young man riding a tall horse.

In the nearby restaurant, Lin Ruhai opened the window to watch the movement, his face was cold, he couldn't see whether it was joy or sorrow, after a long time, Fang said with a little anger: "This guy is too unruly! A little emperor The Shang family dared to be so domineering, and the officials of the Yingtian Mansion turned a deaf ear to it? I think their officials have gone too far..."

Xiao Zhelin glanced out when he heard the words, "You said they are from the Xue family of Jinling?" Although Xiao Zhelin had investigated the affairs of the four major families in his previous life, he had not seen any of them. knew.

Lin Ruhai nodded, "The man on the horse is Xue Pan, the only son of the Xue family. This man has been arrogant and domineering since he was a child. Although he has studied for several years, he can only know a few words. He only knows how to fight cocks and dogs all day long. Hua Suliu is the most lecherous and ignorant person. Now he is just relying on his grandfather's false name, a false name in the household department, and receiving money and food. This is still left to the old man. He only seeks to have fun, and the rest Don't care about anything."

"This kind of person who sits on a vegetarian table is the most hateful!" Xiao Zhelin ordered Chen Zhong, "Send a letter to Jingzhong to order Xiao Qian to draw up an order, and the job of the Xue family's royal merchant is over." Chen Zhong took the order and left, Xiao Zhelin He turned back and shook Lin Ruhai's hand, "I'm sorry, Ruhai, you and Yu'er suffered in the last life..."

When he mentioned this matter, his heart felt as if a knife had been stabbed in his heart. If it wasn't for his cowardice and retreat, how could Ru Hai end up like that in the end.And according to Ruhai, in the last life he was in the form of a soul and watched Yu'er die, how heartbreaking that feeling was, thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. In this life, he will never let Yu'er die again. Like the sea!

"You didn't do anything wrong, what is this for?" Lin Ruhai was puzzled, and smiled calmly. Indeed, except for the coercion in his memory, Xiao Zhelin didn't do anything to offend him. Everything was his fault. Why should this person apologize for his own choice?

It's my fault for not taking good care of you, Xiao Zhelin thought to himself.

"The four big families are corrupt, perverting the law, oppressing and exploiting. It is no longer a matter of one day. I will get rid of these moths sooner or later. The descendants of the Duke have also been in close contact, and now Wang Ziteng still holds the military power, so we have to deal with them slowly. This time, we will use the Zhen Mansion first to make them wake up. The most terrifying thing is not to kill them directly. They, but this feeling of trembling waiting..."

"Do you have such a deep hatred with them?" Lin Ruhai asked with a smile, what kind of mentality is it that you have to torture them before killing someone.

"Why not? I can't forget how they treated you in the previous life..." Lin Ruhai covered Xiao Zhelin's mouth before he finished speaking, "Don't talk about the past life, let's live well now."

Xiao Lingwei saw this scene as soon as he opened the door, and hurriedly retreated out. How could the two people in the room not notice such a big movement?Lin Ruhai withdrew his hands calmly, Xiao Lingwei had seen anything worse than this, so he didn't care about it anymore, and gave Xiao Zhelin a wink, telling him to call Xiao Lingwei in.Xiao Lingwei glanced at Lin Ruhai with a smile, and thought to himself: Ruhai is more relaxed than before.Then he shouted to the outside: "It's all here, if you don't come in, why don't you stand outside and be the door god?"

"Brother, give my elder brother greetings!" Xiao Lingwei came in after hearing the words.

Traveling in micro-clothes is the most taboo to reveal your identity. First, being known by interested people, it is inevitable to be a good boy, and second, it will only increase the danger.In the past in Suzhou, there was no problem with the protection and safety of the imperial guards, and Xiao Lingwei's words became less scruples.But it is different in Jinling now, the emperor's safety cannot be sloppy, so Xiao Lingwei consciously replaced the word "imperial brother" with elder brother.Regarding this, Xiao Zhelin just smiled lightly, how could he not know what Xiao Lingwei was thinking, but he was not the kind of arrogant and conceited person, since he brought Ru Hai out, how could he not take precautions at all?

"No, sit down!" Xiao Zhelin waved his hand.

Just as Xiao Lingwei sat down, he heard his brother ask: "How is the investigation going?"

"There are some clues. The missing child has been found, and it is in a few servants' rooms in Xunfang Pavilion. This matter has something to do with Jiangnan Zhen's residence. My brother has not yet found out the details," Xiao Lingwei said, raising his eyes to look at Lin Ruhai. , and then said, "I'm afraid it has something to do with the Jia family in Beijing. Although the Jia family has moved to the capital now, their ancestral home is still from Jinling. And Jinling's popular guardian talisman, King Jia Shixue, is listed first. A family that cannot be offended..."

"What is an official protection talisman?" Xiao Zhelin asked.

"Brother doesn't know?" Xiao Lingwei asked, Xiao Zhelin raised his eyebrows, the latter quickly covered his mouth, then smiled and took out a handwritten official amulet from his sleeve, handed it over, and said: "Now do Local officials all have a private list with the names of powerful and powerful gentry in the province. People on this private list should not be easily offended. It is normal for the elder brother to have never heard of it, and it is also time for the younger brother to investigate this matter. I just found out."

Xiao Zhelin took the list in his hand, opened it and handed it to Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "You can read it yourself, I know everything written in it." Xiao Zhelin glanced at it, and the first sentence was: Jia is not false, white jade is a horse for gold.Then he pointed and smiled and said, "This is about Jia's mansion, it's a big tone!" When the Jia's mansion was raided in the last life, it didn't find a few taels of silver, and the gold and jade were ruined, and it was only good-looking. Regardless of the emptiness inside, how can such a family be invincible?

"Who says it's not?" Xiao Lingwei echoed, "The historians, the Xue family, the Wang family, and the Zhen family are behind them, and they almost violated Jinling City to the sky, and no one dares to take care of them!" But today when I met these two, I'm afraid they won't be able to eat, Xiao Lingwei thought.

"Here, check the list here to see what they have done to endanger the village, and investigate and deal with them together." Xiao Zhelin said and threw the official amulet to Xiao Lingwei, looking at Lin Ruhai, who was rubbing the rim of the cup and thinking, His sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, his eyelashes drooped naturally, and there was an unknown smile on the corner of his mouth, which was incomparably captivating.Every time he sees him like this, Xiao Zhelin can't help but feel soft-hearted. He really loves his little thoughts.

"Ruhai, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Zhelin asked quietly.

"I'm wondering who is more suitable for the position of the magistrate of Yingtianfu..." No matter whether he is the minister of the Ministry of officials or the imperial envoy this time, it is his responsibility to appoint officials of the fourth rank.Obviously, the current magistrate of Ying Tianfu has been labeled unqualified by Lin Ruhai.If Zhang Huai hadn't been handpicked by Xiao Zhelin as a pacifier, he would be the most suitable, and now he can only look at other people.

"Haha..." Before Lin Ruhai finished speaking, the Xiao Zhelin brothers burst out laughing.Obviously, what Lin Ruhai said surprised them.

The three chatted for a while, mostly about the disappearance of the young girl, Lin Ruhai said: "Don't worry about it, it is serious to rescue those abducted children first. They are also spoiled by their parents at home Yes, now that we are in such a catastrophe, we must have suffered quite a bit. If we delay for a few more days, it will be good if some young people get sick again. As for the person behind the scenes, it is not too late to investigate slowly. Furthermore, it is unknown if there may be another harvest.”

"That makes sense..." Xiao Lingwei nodded.Without waiting for him to say anything else, Xiao Zhelin made a final decision: "Let's do this, Ling Wei, you go, I'll send you a team of guards, and we must rescue those children!" It wasn't that Xiao Zhelin really cared about those children. Whether it's cold or ruthless, all he cares about is Ruhai. Since Ruhai wants to save him, he is naturally bound to do so.

"No, no, brother..." Xiao Lingwei became anxious when he heard this, and even the brother called out, "I have enough manpower, those children and ministers will definitely be rescued, your safety The most important thing is that the guards are by your side, so you can rest assured, right?"

Xiao Zhelin waved his hand and said with a smile, "Why do you think I'm risking my life?"

Xiao Lingwei shook his head, his imperial brother had a strong desire to control, and he had an air of arrogance to everything.This kind of person is also the easiest to be lonely, like the emperor brother he saw before.But, now... Xiao Lingwei glanced at Lin Ruhai secretly, the indifference and loneliness that emanated from the inside out seemed to have vanished, as long as he looked at Lin Ruhai, his imperial brother's eyes were full of happiness and sweetness.Such a person, who said that he is risking his life, who would believe it?Love is like this, once you fall into it, you will have a lot of troubles, but this is a kind of trouble that makes people happy.

"You take the people who are given to you. Don't worry, I have enough people. As the saying goes, 'a strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake'. They have a deep foundation in Jinling, and there are many crises here. You bring more people, The success is even bigger. After you return to Beijing, you can go to court, don't wander around all day long!" Xiao Zhelin patted Xiao Lingwei on the shoulder, everyone said that Prince Zhongshun's flirtatiousness is absurd, but in fact it is not, it should be smart Absolutely right.

"Brother Huang, younger brother..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Zhelin interrupted him and said: "There is no need to say more. These years, this person has nothing to show for his talents. I have wronged you. In fact, it is because of your carelessness. I have never regarded you as an opponent. Now The world is peaceful, and you also think about what you have and what you don’t have, and you don’t want to be so flirtatious forever!”

"Brother, thank you, Brother Huang!" Xiao Lingwei knelt down with tears in his eyes...
