The result was really as Lin Ruhai expected, from the old lady Lin to the three-year-old Xiao Daiyu, the entire Lin family was poisoned.

While Lin Ruhai asked Lin Qing for diagnosis and treatment, he turned around and went to the study to write a secret book, and complained to the emperor for help.Since he took up the post of inspecting salt censor, it can be said that he has worked hard and trembling. The salt tax in the south of the Yangtze River has almost doubled compared with previous years.

But those were all political tricks. Even when he went out to inspect the salt field, someone assassinated and poisoned them, and Lin Ruhai recognized them one by one.He has read the books of sages and sages since he was a child, and he is a disciple of the Son of Heaven. He is favored by the present. If he can serve the country with his own body, it will not be in vain for him to be famous for several generations of the Lin family, and he will not lose the reputation of the ancestors of the Lin family.

However, what he can bear does not include what he is like now. His old mother, wife who is pregnant with Liujia, and children who are still babbling have all become the targets of the enemy.There is a saying that it is easy to dodge open spears, but hard to guard against hidden arrows. He has only one person, how can he resist so many cold arrows and protect his family well.

What's more, a crying child has candy to eat. He has suffered such a great grievance, so he naturally has to tell the present clearly, otherwise he will really be unable to wash the dirty water in the future and will not be able to live.

Not to mention how Lin Qing and Lin Mo worked so hard to detoxify Lin Ruhai's family.In the Imperial Palace in Beijing, the old emperor was furious, took Lin Ruhai's secret book, and immediately smashed a teacup.

Lin Ruhai was carefully selected by him, and what he valued was his character and talent, so he was in the position of Xunyan Yushi for many years.He naturally knew that many people could not win him over, so he began to suppress Lin Ruhai, but he never took action to stop him, he just wanted to use this to hone Lin Ruhai, so that he could entrust him with important tasks in the future.

It's just that the emperor didn't expect those methods to be so filthy that he actually used dirty methods like poisoning other people's mothers, wives and children.From this we can see how dark the officialdom in Jiangnan has become, and how daring the people behind the scenes are.

When the emperor was angry, it naturally had a huge impact.The old emperor first sent two imperial physicians to Yangzhou to diagnose and treat Lin Ruhai's family, and then started spying to thoroughly investigate who was behind the attack, and he must cut off his minions.

The entire Jiangnan officialdom was shaken. Countless people were tracked down every day, some people disappeared inexplicably, and some people's families were sent to prison.While pulling out the poison, Lin Ruhai watched coldly, feeling happy in his heart!

It turned out that the poisoning caused great harm to Mrs. Lin's body.After all, she was old, and she worried too much in the early years, but she had a comfortable life in the past few years, and her health was not very good.Compared with some time ago, it looks a bit like the sunset now.There are also An Ge'er and Daiyu, who have to drink a lot of bitter medicine soup every day, and their little faces have lost weight a few times. Every time Lin Ruhai thinks about it, his heart feels like a knife is piercing his heart.

The people behind it wanted to wipe out the Lin family. Naturally, Lin Ruhai was not a clay bodhisattva. He cooperated with imperial agents every day to try to find out the real culprit as soon as possible.In the past, he would be a bit scrupulous in his actions, and he didn't want to make things too embarrassing, but now that they want to exterminate all his children, Lin Ruhai should return them in full. Confucius said, "repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue".

The Jiangnan officialdom case, which has been raging for three months, finally came to an end before the Chinese New Year seal.From the eldest prince in the palace, the governor of the two Huaihe Rivers to the magistrates, county officials, and even many families of salt merchants, all suffered disasters, and the atmosphere in the entire Jiangnan was suppressed.

However, some families are happy and some are worried, and those who are in trouble will naturally get rich.Lin Wen's prospective in-law's family took this opportunity to make a fortune. Because of Lin Ruhai's in-laws, they knew many things earlier than the other royal merchants, and took the opportunity to take on several government jobs. It can be regarded as one of the most famous imperial merchants in the Dagan Kingdom.

Just after the New Year's Lantern Festival, Mrs. Lin felt a little bad.She was afraid that if she got sick, it would delay the marriage of her two granddaughters, so she had to drink a lot of medicinal soup every day to hang herself.Not only that, the old lady also divided her body into five parts, including the child in Jia Min's stomach, and each person got a share.

All these things seemed to be arranging the funeral in advance, and the Lin family were all sad and weeping when they saw it, and felt very uncomfortable.It's just that seeing her end up living like this, struggling to catch her breath every day, she hates the eldest prince's faction who attacked at the beginning.

It was still because the Zhuang family and the Xiao family were sensible, so they moved forward their marriage by a month, and held the wedding ceremony for the two couples in early February.Because Lin Wen was older, she got married half a month earlier than Lin Mo. The two sisters went out one after the other, and they were all lined up in red makeup, which dazzled the eyes of the common people in Yangzhou City, and also brought new love to Lin Ruhai's family. Many good names.

After Lin Mo Sanchao returned home, Mrs. Lin was sure that Jia Min's womb was still a boy, and seeing that everyone in the Lin family was doing well, she died suddenly in the middle of the night at the age of 68.

Lin Ruhai cried so much that she almost fainted, and Jia Min also lost her breath a few times, even if An Ge'er and Daiyu were still young, they couldn't stop their tears when they saw the suffering of everyone around them.There are also Lin Qing's family and the newly married Lin Wen and Lin Mo. Thinking of the old lady Lin's usual kindness, her eyes are swollen from crying.

Lin Ruhai wanted Ding You, and now he was grateful for his mother's death for state affairs, so he specially gave a first-rank wife's ceremonial standard, and ordered the local officials and family members of Yangzhou to attend the funeral for old lady Lin.And because Lin Ruhai's health was not very good, the imperial physician sent to Yangzhou said that if he didn't take good care of his health and worked hard, it might not be a sign of longevity.

Coupled with the fact that the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River is now clear and under the current control, even the successor does not need to be as skilled as Lin Ruhai.Therefore, Ding You was allowed to return to his hometown to be a filial piety for his mother, and he earnestly told him to take good care of his health before serving the court in the future.

When Lin Ruhai received the imperial decree, he was moved and wept bitterly. He shouted long live three times and grabbed the land with his head, wishing to serve the country on the spot.At any rate, they were persuaded by the accompanying officials, and they all sighed, it is really a good story of the monarch and his ministers getting along.

The emperor put on such a posture, and the officials who came to hand over would not be ignorant, so naturally they would not urge Lin Ruhai to leave as soon as possible.However, Yangzhou is now Lin Ruhai's sad place, and he doesn't want to stay any longer. After the handover of official duties is completed, he will return to his hometown with his wife and children.

Lin Qing's family came with Lin Ruhai, so naturally they have to go back with them now.Lin Wen was already married, and even though she was reluctant to let go, she still wanted to live her life well, but she didn't follow her back.However, Lin Qi stayed. He grew up under Mrs. Lin's knees, and he had been cared for by the old man since he was a child. He wanted to go back to observe filial piety together, but was stopped by Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai told him that if he wins next year in Chunwei, that's what the old lady would like to see. Filial piety lies not in deeds, but staying here and studying well with Mr. Zhuge.But at Lin Qi's insistence, his marriage was postponed for a year, and the Zhuge family agreed after much consideration. After all, choosing a son-in-law who is affectionate and righteous is much better than that wolf-hearted son-in-law.

As for Lin Mo, he followed Su Bai and saw off Mrs. Lin for the last time. After seeing her coffin buried, he reluctantly went to Su's house.Her mood has been very low, thanks to Su Bai's persuasion along the way, and she kept explaining with words, she finally showed her face.

As for Su Bai going back this time, he wanted to separate the family.He knew that his relationship with Mr. Su was dead, if he didn't take advantage of the time when Mr. Su was still alive, he could settle the matter as soon as possible, and a word of filial piety could overwhelm him in the future, so he wouldn't be able to gain anything in the officialdom .

Fortunately, Mrs. Su felt deeply guilty for this grandson because of the previous incident, and although the Xiao family was powerful, in addition to suppressing Su's father, they also took good care of the other descendants of the Su family.Since the other party didn't do everything right, Mrs. Su was really disappointed with Su's father. This son seemed to be useless, but he still had other descendants to worry about. Su Bai's surname was Su anyway, and he was the grandson of their Su family. It's not a loss to give him.

After various calculations, the old master Su forced Su's father to divide the family, and confiscated two-thirds of Su's father's ancestral property to Su Bai.Su Bai only took half of it, and returned the rest, saying that it would be used for Su's father's retirement in the future, and after Su's father was a hundred years old, he would distribute it to the other concubine brothers, which was regarded as a kindness from his elder brother.

Su Bai took what he deserved, and after making a written statement in the clan, he took Lin Mo to the capital to prepare for the spring exam next year.The rest of Su's father and stepmother were so pissed off that they cursed him every day in the mansion for being unkind, unrighteous, disloyal and unfilial, and said they would sue him in the government.

This matter was heard by another aunt and concubine, who secretly stabbed the old man Su, who was so angry that the old man grounded the couple and ordered them not to talk nonsense.If they dare to tarnish the reputation of the Su family again, they will be directly expelled from the family tree. In the future, they will stop calling themselves the Su family and leave the house directly.This action immediately calmed the couple, and from then on, they were like quails, never daring to speak nonsense again.

Su Bai, who had already left, didn't know about it, and he didn't care about it. The past was blowing away like the wind, and his new life had just begun.After the young couple arrived in the capital, they first rested for a few days, and then brought the letters from the elder of the Xiao family and Lin Ruhai, and began to visit the old friends of the Xiao Lin family.

Most of the old friends and acquaintances of the two families are civil servants, but they have the same temper as each other, and they also care for the two juniors, Su Bai and Lin Mo.Only Jia Min's natal family, Rong Guorong, is an honorable family. Although Lin Mo knew that Jia Min had been in these years, it was not compatible with Jia's family.

But she is a junior, and she bears the name of a foster daughter, so she naturally wants to come to visit, so she prepared a gift and handed over a letter of invitation to come to see her.
