[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Lin Hong's leg injury was not only a blow to the Lin family, but also a blow to the lieutenants who had followed Lin Hong for several years.

The man succeeded in one blow in the torrential rain, and then disappeared into the heavy rain.

Later, because the enemy's main general was killed, the enemy soldiers who were already scattered everywhere because of the exhaustion of the battle were even more disorganized and fled in all directions. Under the chaotic situation at that time, it was natural to give the traces of the person who attacked Lin Hong to him. cover up.

It is very difficult to follow the trail of that person.

As for the identity of that person, there were many speculations at the time, and many people subconsciously believed that it was the assassin sent by the enemy to attack Lin Hong.In a way, this speculation makes sense.

However, there are also doubts.

If that person was an assassin sent by the enemy's general to attack Lin Hong, why didn't this person appear at the beginning, or in the previous several battles with the enemy?Also, why did this person appear after Lin Hong beheaded the enemy general?

If he is from the enemy, shouldn't he focus on protecting the enemy's general?Why wait until the enemy army has collapsed across the board and the situation is over to attack Lin Hong?Doing so can only vent anger, but it will not change the enemy's defeat at all.

There are doubts.At that time, the strength of the enemy army was the most clear among the Lingnan Army who had been fighting with them for several months. The number of enemy soldiers was completely different from that of the man who attacked Lin Hong.If there is such a thunderous figure, how can the enemy hide it until the decisive battle and release it?

At that time, Lin Hong was seriously injured and passed out. He didn't know what happened afterwards.However, the personal guards around him and several lieutenants not far away saw that in the heavy rain, the man who injured Lin Hong walked past several enemy soldiers with a big knife in his hands, and those soldiers were seriously injured. , Some of them even reached out to ask this person to give them a hand, but this person was indifferent, never even looked at them, and just disappeared indifferently, without caring about anything in front of him.

This is obviously problematic.

After the incident, Lin Hong was sent back to the army for treatment. His lieutenants were excited about Lin Hong's injury, and everyone reached a consensus that they must find that person to avenge Lin Hong.

Even if the battle was won, the lieutenants after the battle did not have the slightest joy of victory because the main general was injured and unconscious. The soldiers led their men out to look for the person who attacked Lin Hong.

But the search was fruitless.

Lin Hong was seriously injured and went into a coma with the amputation of his residual limbs. He then regained consciousness and returned to the capital after his health improved a little. During this period, the Lingnan Army had been resting. Lin Hong didn't know about these things at the time.

After Lin Hong resigned and returned to the capital, Shen Shu took over as the general. As soon as Shen Shu came, he dealt with these lieutenants who had left the camp without authorization.The lieutenants explained the situation, and they were not given a light sentence, and they were still dealt with one by one according to the military law.

Lin Hong learned about this later, but he had no right to comment. After all, the lieutenants had indeed violated the law.

On the one hand, Shen Shu took over the Lingnan war, and on the other hand, he did not slack in the investigation of Lin Hong's attack.After disposing of Lin Hong's lieutenant according to the law, Shen Shu sent people to investigate the attack on Lin Hong. The final result of the investigation was that the enemy sent people to hurt Lin Hong. The details of the incident were written in the memorial at that time. On it, there is the testimony of the enemy lieutenant general, but the person who injured Lin Hong could not be found.

During Shen Shu's tenure as a general, he never gave up looking for this person's whereabouts, but there was no news for so many years. Later, with Shen Shu's departure, the situation in Lingnan was restored, and when Shen Qiao was appointed as Lingnan general, this matter would not be the same. It's over.

In fact, some people speculated that the person either hid or died.But how, is still unknown.

Emperor Chengsheng had carefully read Shen Shu's memorial back then, and he still has an impression of it now.

He attached great importance to Lin Hong, and naturally he had some impressions of the trusted lieutenants around Lin Hong.

Emperor Chengsheng remembered that after these lieutenants were relegated to the frontier, in these years, he had never seen the names of these people in the roster of promotion of lieutenant officers and soldiers. Hong and those people among the four kings and eight princes, in the past years, on the surface, the well water did not interfere with the river water, but the undercurrent was surging and not calm inside.

Later, Shen Qiao became Lingnan General, and these lieutenants were never reused, and later they disappeared without a name.Even if they were punished for their mistakes at the beginning, their abilities are not bad, so why haven't they been able to stand out for so many years?It's nothing more than the new incumbent's intention to suppress it.

But, did they just suppress these lieutenants?Did they do anything else in private?

Back then, except for the military newspaper, Lin Hong almost never complained to Emperor Chengsheng about difficulties. Know that these things have happened.

Emperor Chengsheng once felt that Lin Hong's temperament was very calm and reliable, but now it seems that he still doesn't know enough, and he has indeed ignored the facts in some aspects.

He now wants to know whether anyone did unnecessary things behind his back during the Lingnan incident.

He had to find out all this.If it's as stated in the military newspaper, that's fine, if not... then let's see what the truth is.

The West Garden was in trouble until the first quarter of Haishi when all the guests dispersed.

Lin Jian and his elder brother and second brother sent all the guests away, and then went to Lin Hong's courtyard to see Lin Hong together.

Not long after Lin Hong returned to the house, he saw his three brothers coming together, and asked about the situation in the garden. Hearing that the garden was almost cleaned up, he nodded and told the three brothers to go back and rest. .

"You've all been tired all day, and it's not too early now, so go back and rest first, let's talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

Lin Hong's brows were also full of fatigue, Lin Yuan and Lin Liang said a few words to Mrs. Qiao, and then called Lin Jian to leave together.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Jian separated from his elder brother and second brother at a fork in the garden, seeing that his elder brother and second brother had gone far away, he quietly returned by himself and went to the house to talk to Lin Hong again.

At that time, Lin Hong was sitting on the couch, and Mrs. Qiao was taking off the braces on Lin Hong's legs.

Lin Hong pretended to move the machine for a day, sometimes when he was sitting and resting, but also when he was moving. The flesh and blood of the big/leg connected to the machine was already worn out, although it was not as good as the previous practice It looks so serious, but with the bruise and blood red on the flesh, it still looks very shocking.

Qiao looked distressed, but she didn't say anything, she just took off the machine cover for Lin Hong silently, then went to get the medicine box and came to treat Lin Hong's wound.

It has to be said that the moment Lin Hong took off the enclosure, Lin Hong still had a sense of comfort that the restraints had been removed. He breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his eyelids and looked at the room, then stood aside silently. Lin Jian.

"Yunxi, go and come back again, is there anything you can't wait to say?"

Lin Jian blinked silently, thinking that his father really understood him.

But he didn't speak in a hurry, and waited until Qiao's treatment of Lin Hong's wound was almost done before he said, "Father, how did your talk with the Holy One go today?"

As soon as he finished asking, Mrs. Qiao also raised her eyelids and glanced at him, but she only looked away before she looked away, and continued to kick Lin Hong to treat the wound.

After Qiao's treatment of the wound, Qiao put the medicine box back and went to prepare hot water for Lin Hong to wash, only did he hear Lin Hong's answer to Lin Jian.

"How else?"

Lin Hong said indifferently, "The Holy Majesty saw me like this, so naturally he wanted to ask the reason behind this incident. As you expected, the Holy Majesty never blamed us for concealing it until now, but I just talked about the old things as I said to you, several times and three times. After hinting, His Majesty's expression didn't loosen at all. It seemed like he was chatting about family matters, and I'm not sure if His Majesty heard what I was saying."

"However, the request to move into the General's Mansion has been granted by the Holy Majesty, and the imperial decree will come down in a few days. In these two days, you can let your family prepare for it. We will move back soon."

Lin Jian said: "Even if the Holy Majesty has any ideas, I will not ask Dad to test them out. I asked Dad to test the Holy Majesty, just to see how the Holy Majesty's successors will react."

Lin Hong didn't make a sound, Lin Jian glanced at Lin Hong, and when he was about to speak, Mrs. Qiao, who had prepared hot water, happened to hear their conversation. She rolled up her sleeves for Lin Hong, and while looking at Lin Hong's clean face, she Then he opened his mouth.

Qiao said: "In my opinion, the Holy Majesty has treated you father and son leniently."

"Your Majesty doesn't know that your recent actions are all to test him. Yunxi forced the Holy Majesty to allow the Metropolitan Procuratorate to publish the dossier at the court meeting, and you held a big birthday banquet. At the birthday banquet, the Majesty saw you stand up again without saying hello." He even used favors to coerce the Holy Majesty to allow you to live in the General's Mansion, and asked him for the reward that he didn't want back then. If the Holy Majesty doesn't know anything, your father and son's behavior can be said to have exceeded the rules."

"Just like that, the Holy Majesty responded with a good temper. He really favors you."

Lin Jian suddenly said coldly when he heard the words: "Mother's words are correct. But if the Holy Majesty knew about what my father and I did, it would be touching Ni Lin. If the Holy Majesty can still hold his breath like this, it must be a deep scheming It's hard to guess. When it's time to tear your face apart, Dad's ten years of grievances and forbearance, even if he found the creditor and demanded repayment."

"repay?"

Qiao suddenly reached out and tapped Lin Jian's forehead, "Looking at the world, only you, a brash brat, dare to ask the royal family to pay you back!"

Seeing the red marks on Lin Jian's forehead that she had pressed hard, Qiao could not help but sighed softly, her eyes softened a bit, fearing that Lin Jian would be hurt, she stretched out her hand and rubbed him gently with her fingertips, "You guys This move is a risky move, I hope you are making the right bet and going the right way..."
