[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Lin Jian looked at Ying Tianyi with a smile: "What do you mean, sir?"

Ying Tianyi looked at Lin Jian and said in a low voice: "Yunxi, don't play dumb with me. This is full of rumors about you, don't you know?"

"They said that you lured Prince Rui to make trouble. If it wasn't for you, Prince Rui would not have ended up in such a situation. His Majesty would not have compromised Prince Rui's son. His Majesty valued you and favored you, yet you urged His Majesty to do such a thing. You are unfaithful and unrighteous, and the Holy One mistrusted you."

Ying Tianyi was worried about Lin Jian, so he picked up some of the rumors he heard and told Lin Jian. Although his voice was lowered, the speed and tone of his words were urgent and fast, which showed that he was really worried for Lin Jian. "Yunxi, although these words are absurd, they are spread everywhere now, and they are nothing more than anecdotal rumors. Now all the officials in the court know about it. However, the matter of Prince Rui was not detailed before, and the officials don't know much about the inside story. Bewitched by rumors to believe."

"Although you are the deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and also the title of Prince and Shaofu, you have the duty to supervise all officials, but you are not free from worries. Just because of your current official status, you can't make any mistakes. But the rumors in the city are aimed at you, not to mention other people, even your supervisory censor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who heard these rumors, will also impeach you in front of the Holy Majesty."

Lin Jian smiled shallowly: "Sir, I don't know the inside story either. In the final analysis, these rumors are all about the affairs of the Holy Majesty, Prince Rui, and me. There is nothing wrong with rough listening. The first reaction is that you don't believe it, and you just believe in this situation." Didn't I plan it like the rumors said?"

Ying Tianyi said sternly: "Although you are stubborn and act out of line, I also watched you grow up. You wouldn't do things like this. With Old General Lin as an example, you No matter how unscrupulous they are, they will never provoke the relationship between the Holy Majesty and Prince Rui. So I will not believe a single word of those rumors."

"As for the inside story of Prince Rui's rebellion, the only people who know about it are the Holy Majesty and you, and then His Highness the Crown Prince and the people who dealt with it. Since you decided not to make the inside story public, you must have thought about it. This matter is naturally It is the Holy One who decides, since the Holy Majesty does not say anything, as a courtier, he will not listen or ask, and cannot add fuel to the flames and believe those meaningless market rumors."

"It's just that those who secretly spread rumors have sinister intentions. They want to use these rumors to sow discord between you and the emperor and the royal family. They cannot be tolerated. In my opinion, for the sake of the present, you might as well release the news of your sickness. As long as you cooperate properly with the Holy Majesty, the news that you were plotted against Prince Rui's affairs will be spread, and everyone's misunderstanding of you will be resolved, and the Holy Majesty will also have a step down. At that time, the Holy Majesty will protect you, and the matter will gradually subside. , if you slowly improve, you will be fine."

Ying Tianyi's idea to Lin Jian was to delay Lin Jian with illness.

Rumors in the capital are nothing more than a gust of wind. If there is news of Lin Jian's illness, it proves that he was injured during Prince Rui's troubles. There were rumors that the relationship between the Holy Majesty and Prince Rui was intentionally alienated behind the scenes, and here, of course, he could also clear himself of the suspicion, and even gave Emperor Chengsheng a step down.

Otherwise, according to the original rumors, Emperor Chengsheng couldn't do it even if he wanted to protect Lin Jian.Otherwise, Emperor Chengsheng would become a monarch who does not distinguish between right and wrong.And with this step down, Emperor Chengsheng could protect Lin Jian, the rumors would be self-defeating, and everyone got an explanation in their hearts, as long as it proved that Lin Jian was not a loyal and unjust person.

Ying Tianyi said to Lin Jian, "The people behind the rumors are targeting you. If this plan fails, they will inevitably make another one. But if this plan is avoided, you can always keep Yunxi safe for a while. Before making a move, with your ingenuity, you will be able to find the flaws of the people behind them, and then break them in one fell swoop."

Lin Jian kept looking at Ying Tianyi with a smile on his face, and listened to Ying Tianyi's words very seriously. After Ying Tianyi finished speaking, he listened carefully to the sound of wind and rain outside the house, and then turned his head to look at Ying Tianyi again.

"Mister's idea is very good. However, I can't use it."

Lin Jian said softly: "The person behind the rumors is targeting me, but it's not just me. He wants to sow discord between me, the Holy Majesty, and His Highness the Crown Prince, so is it just targeting me? What if? This time I escaped and backed down on the grounds of being weak, so next time, they use other methods to target me, trying to provoke the relationship between me and His Majesty and His Royal Highness, what should I do? Do you escape with sickness once?"

"Sir, everyone speaks out money and burns bones, even though the Holy One can favor me for a while, but if there are too many people telling these rumors, it will always leave traces in the Holy Lord's heart. If I just keep avoiding it, the result will be what those people hoped for." of."

Lin Jian took two steps forward slowly, he was a little closer to Ying Tianyi than before, and then spoke to Ying Tianyi in a voice almost sighing.

Ying Tianyi was the only one who heard these words. Three steps away from Lin Jian, for example, Yongcheng who was waiting outside the door, or if someone who practiced martial arts eavesdropped on the beam, he would only listen. With the sound of wind and rain in his ears, he couldn't hear what Lin Jian said to Tian Yi in the end.

He said: "I don't know how many people I have offended by all the things I have done in the past six months, and how many people secretly hate me so much that they want to get rid of it quickly. The affairs of the DPRK and China are complicated. Once you make a decision and stand in line, It is bound to offend the other side. If you do small things, you will offend fewer people, but if you do big things, you will offend more people."

"Prince Rui caused chaos and was abolished, he is useless, but his matter can be used to make a big fuss. Such rumors are always difficult to find out, anyone can contribute to the flames, even if they try their best to find the flaws of the people behind it, It is also time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is meaningless. For a period of time, it will not be able to reverse the situation for me, let alone clear my reputation."

"Do you still remember what happened in the last two episodes? There was no rumor about me in the capital, and no one/impeached me in the middle of the court? Didn't I get through such a difficult situation? Adversity is not necessarily useless. The worse the situation is , the more it can be used by me."

At the end of this point, Lin Jian smiled softly, "Sir, you have never served in the army, nor have you led the army. The intrigues and intrigues between the court and the court have never been as dangerous as the danger of dying on the battlefield. If you lose your life, take it." What to calculate?"

On a rainy night in the early morning of a winter night, Ying Tianyi could hear the sound of gusts of wind and rain outside, and saw the lights flickering in the house, Lin Jian looked at him with a smile in the looming light and shadow, like a gentle and dignified gentleman.

But when he mentioned the words "dangerous death on the battlefield", it was filled with a biting chill.

This chill was even colder than the ice and snow in nine cold days, which made Ying Tianyi shudder instantly.It was also at this time that he suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was no longer the little overlord who ran amok in the upper study. He was a young general who had gone to the battlefield, killed people, shed blood and made military achievements.

Hearing Lin Jian's whispers, Ying Tianyi even felt that if he really knew who was spreading the rumors behind the scenes, Lin Jian would even break into someone's door with a long sword in such a dark night and kill someone.He always felt that with Lin Jian's temperament, he could do such a thing.

Ying Tianyi's heart was disturbed by Lin Jian's words for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt a little bit of meaning, and his eyes burst into disbelief: "Yunxi, didn't you... didn't you... Remember today's situation?"

"So you... had a countermeasure early in the morning, didn't you?"

Lin Jian smiled, and instead of answering Ying Tianyi's question directly, he just chatted with a smile on his face, "Sir, I just said that swords have no eyes on the battlefield, and this person always has secrets and secrets, and when he is on the verge of death In such a situation, it will be too late.”

"Since my father had an accident a few years ago and I joined the army, I have quietly established a rule for myself. I will never let myself fall into a situation where I am helpless and on the verge of death. I am used to self-willedness, and I can't bear the feeling of being manipulated." .Even if I'm the only one left, I won't be that idiot who goes to death brazenly and bravely. If you live well, you will naturally have a chance to turn things around."

Ying Tianyi was silent for a long while, it was not that he had nothing to say, but he thought of the things that Lin Jian had done since he came back from southern Anhui. If there is chaos, Lin Jian can save the day and turn the situation to his advantage.

There were many things that I didn't notice at the time, but looking back at this time, it can be seen that Lin Jian's meticulous planning has reached a certain level.

Ying Tianyi thought about it and felt relieved, he sighed lightly: "If you play chess with me again now, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat you."

Lin Jian laughed: "Mr. is superb at chess. I haven't played chess with anyone for a long time. I still can't compare with Mr.."

Just as Ying Tianyi was about to start, the door of the room was pushed open a little, and the wind and rain poured into the room, followed by Yongcheng's deliberately lowered voice.

"Master Ying, Shaofu Lin, it's getting late. If the two of you don't go there, you won't be able to make it to the court meeting."

Lin Jian responded and wanted to go out first, but Ying Tianyi stopped him again.

Ying Tianyi was worried again at this moment: "Yunxi, tell me, what are you going to do? You don't have to tell me everything, just tell me a few words, so I can rest assured."

He also suddenly remembered that according to Lin Jian's temperament, the current matter was to provoke the relationship between him and Emperor Chengsheng, and it also involved royal secrets. According to Lin Jian's style of doing things first, it must be I will never give up until I turn the capital upside down.

How can he rest assured when he thinks like this?If this one is not done well, it will be an offense to Tianwei, and it will be a crime of beheading.
