[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Emperor Chengsheng was furious, and stared at Lin Jian for a long while, resisting the urge to step up and kick him, turned his eyes away and drank a sip of hot tea, squinted at Lin Jian for a long while, and gradually calmed down down.

After several exchanges of words, Lin Jian's words were harsh and unpleasant, and now Emperor Chengsheng could hear it, and this bastard was probably trying to provoke him on purpose.

Emperor Chengsheng calmed down, looked at Lin Jian and raised his eyebrows and said, "So you still know that I have always been tolerant to you."

"In this world, you are the only one who dares to speak to me like this. If it were someone else, they would have been dragged out and chopped up long ago. Even my sons, they would have to be beaten first."

Speaking of this, Emperor Chengsheng's eyes showed a bit of emotion, "Your father fought all the way, from being unknown to being well known in the world, it took several years. I only gradually paid attention to him after he became the leader of the army. To him. By the time I made a pact with his monarch and ministers, your elder brother and second brother have already grown to half a child. That is, you were born under the watchful eyes of Zhen."

"When you were born, your father was not in the capital. He conquered the country for me in Lingnan. I know that he misses you/mother and you in his heart. It's just that communication in the army is inconvenient and the battle is fierce. They haven't passed a letter from home for a long time. So I I personally went to your house, saw you/mother and you, and attached a piece of paper to the official document sent to Lingnan, writing about your situation with you/mother, also to reassure your father."

Emperor Chengsheng looked at Lin Jian and smiled slightly, "I hugged you when I went to see you. You were healthy when you were born, and you didn't cry when I hugged you. That's why I said you are good. , you pissed on me on the spot, and grinned toothlessly at the end. I am the son of heaven, the body of an emperor, even my sons who hugged me, did not make it like this. In this world, you are the only one like this Pass."

"If your father doesn't join the army, he can go to the rivers and lakes to be a hero. You are more unruly than your father, but you can be a wandering swordsman. I told this to your father, and your father laughed For a whole month, I said that you will definitely be promising in the future. I didn't say anything, but I also thought so in my heart."

Emperor Chengsheng wanted to wipe out the power of the four kings and eight lords, he wanted him, the emperor, to be free from anyone's constraints in the court, and he wanted those honest and honest officials who would never form cliques and collude for personal gain to stand out. With my own ability, I can do something for the court and the people.

The first emperor failed to achieve this, but the first emperor still paved the way for Emperor Chengsheng. After several years of hard work by Emperor Chengsheng, his vision was realized bit by bit.

Emperor Chengsheng knew very well that if he wanted to do this thoroughly, then the next emperor, that is, the prince he wanted to choose, must not be a prince born to a concubine from the family of four princes and eight princes.

Among the concubines in the harem, Emperor Chengsheng valued Concubine Yu the most.

He valued Concubine Yu not only because of Concubine Yu's background, but also because of Concubine Yu's own temperament and knowledge, which Emperor Chengsheng loved and appreciated very much.

Therefore, Xiao Yu, the ninth prince born to Concubine Yu, also became Emperor Chengsheng's favorite prince.Later Xiao Yu grew up, and Emperor Chengsheng saw that Concubine Yu had raised her son very well. Even though Xiao Yu was not born in the middle palace, his demeanor was different from other princes, even if he was born to the daughter of a civil servant, Xiao Yu's martial arts is also very outstanding among the princes.

Based on various considerations, as early as when Xiao Yu reached the age to go to study in the study, Emperor Chengsheng had already decided in his heart that Xiao Yu would be the future prince.

Concubine Yu is the daughter of the prime minister, and the Yu family is the scholarly family of the Zanying family. After the civil officials of all dynasties, Prime Minister Yu was already the prime minister when Emperor Chengsheng ascended the throne. Equality, even if it is a prime minister, the status is second to the general.

Deciding that the prince born to the civil official's daughter is the crown prince means losing the support of the four princes and eight princes and their attached forces. Support the prince's jealousy and calculations.

Emperor Chengsheng must choose for Xiao Yu a person or family he trusts who can protect Xiao Yu, support Xiao Yu and assist Xiao Yu, and can compete with the four kings and eight princes and their attached forces.

Emperor Chengsheng thought of Lin Hong almost without hesitation.

He and Lin Hongjun and his ministers are inseparable, but since ancient times they have said that the emperor is long live, but he knows that life is only a hundred years, and he and Lin Hong can subdue all the great Zhou and Jiangshan. He and Lin Hong may not be able to finish it.

He couldn't finish what he couldn't do, so he hoped that Xiao Yu could do it slowly, and he also hoped that Xiao Yu and Lin Hong's son could be as good as he and Lin Hong.

Emperor Chengsheng had great expectations for Lin Jian in his heart. He wanted to cultivate Xiao Yu's right-hand man who would help him achieve hegemony. Therefore, Emperor Chengsheng had always been tolerant and tolerant of Lin Jian's temperament. The rampant, he never really got angry.

On the contrary, to be honest from the bottom of his heart, Emperor Chengsheng admired Lin Jian's temperament very much.

He is unscrupulous and disregards the rules, but he is not a dandy who is unreasonable, uneducated, and uneducated.Emperor Chengsheng knew very well that only with Lin Jian's temperament can he control those people with their own thoughts.

But this time, what Lin Jian did/acted crossed the line.

Emperor Chengsheng stared deeply at Lin Jian, his eyes with a gentle smile were like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into Lin Jian's eyes, as if wanting to invade his thoughts, take a look inside his heart Deep true thoughts.

Emperor Chengsheng didn't say anything, but his disappointment with Lin Jian was clearly written in his eyes.

Lin Jian kept looking at Emperor Chengsheng with a smile, but his eyes were always sober and restrained. When he heard Emperor Chengsheng talk about his childhood, Lin Jian's eyes flickered, The coldness in his eyes receded a bit, but when he saw the disappointment in Emperor Chengsheng's eyes, Lin Jian lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and when he looked up again, his eye sockets were actually a little red .

Lin Jian suppressed all his emotions, looked at Emperor Chengsheng quietly, and said softly with red eyes: "My lord, have you seen my father's injured leg?"

"He was cut off from the kneecap with a big knife. The blade separated the bone and flesh along the bone seam. The severe pain cannot be understood without personal experience."

"My father prides himself on being a man, and he will not tell anyone about this pain in detail. The Holy Lord is in danger for the whole week. No one in this world will let you take risks, let alone hurt you. The general who guards the country Ladies and gentlemen, there is no one who has not experienced dangers and dangers. My father has become a disabled person, but he is still alive. But the pain of a broken leg, he can only bear it himself, and no one can replace him. "

"When my father came back from Lingnan, I was the same as the Holy One. What I saw was the former general who was disheartened, and what I saw was a silent man with his injured leg wrapped up. But in Lingnan, my mother, my elder brother, There are also lieutenants who followed my father. They all saw my father's injured leg. Later, I saw it too. My father put on the machine and practiced standing and walking. I can see the hard work day and night. .”

Lin Jian stared at Emperor Chengsheng, and asked him softly, "Your Majesty, even once, have you really seen my father's injured leg?"

Lin Jian seemed to be very persistent on this issue.

These words of his, spoken out slowly, actually made Emperor Chengsheng feel sad.

Emperor Chengsheng was silent for a while before replying: "Zhen, I have never seen your father's injured leg."

In the silence of the room, Emperor Chengsheng's voice was very soft, "Since your father returned to the capital, I have met your father every ten days and never mentioned his injury in front of him. If he doesn't retreat from the battlefield, he must feel uncomfortable. I don't want him to indulge in the past and be overly sad, which is not good for his injury. I send the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him every ten days and ask for his pulse, just to know how his body is. But If you want to talk about seeing his injured leg, I absolutely don't want to."

"You also said just now that this is a painful wound, how can I expose his scar again in front of him?"

After Emperor Chengsheng finished speaking, it seemed that Emperor Chengsheng couldn't come back to his senses for a long time because Lin Jian brought up these old things. Lin Jian had a panoramic view of Emperor Chengsheng. Hong in the middle was forced to retreat, then knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Chengsheng silently.

When Emperor Chengsheng came back to his senses, there was no trace of Lin Jian in the palace.

Emperor Chengsheng frowned, raised his voice to call someone in, and Deping hurried in after hearing the sound.

Emperor Chengsheng frowned and asked him, "Where is Lin Jian?"

Deping hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, Master Lin has left. Master Lin said that he did not dare to bother His Majesty too much. He has already said what he should say. He also did not dare to wait for the head of the Ministry of Punishment for a long time. He kowtowed to His Majesty." He knelt down and left."

Emperor Chengsheng didn't say anything when he heard the words, and waved his hands to signal Deping to go out and wait. He still has things to think about alone.

Lin Jianzong admitted what he had done at the court meeting, but Emperor Chengsheng ordered the Criminal Department of Dali Temple to try the case together, so Lin Jian was not convicted. Only then will there be a decision on him.

Lin Jian was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

After being taken to the cell by the jailer and locked up, Lin Jian looked at the shackles on his hands and feet, and at the damp/damp and dark cell, a smile slowly formed on the corner of his lips.

After living for 20 years, this was the first time he was imprisoned.

The environment in this place is indeed harsh, but he has seen worse than this. Lin Jian didn't take it seriously. He stood in the prison for a while, looked around the entire cell, and listened to the outside. He raised the hem of his clothes and sat on the floor.

Anyway, he won't stay here for a long time, after more than a month, he should be able to go out.

At this time of year, the prison is quiet and there are no offenders. Lin Jian is locked in an area alone. There is no one in this cell. After Lin Jian sat for a while, he heard footsteps coming from the originally quiet corridor. The footsteps were soft and heavy, Lin Jian heard the approaching footsteps, and thought to himself, he was locked in not long ago, so someone came to see him so soon?
