[Red Mansion] Young Master Lin Yan

Jinhe Teahouse.

There were two guards standing outside the wing room, and Su Jin had already made tea in the room.

Lin Yan sat down and took a sip, and praised: "Taiping Monkey King? Miss Su's craftsmanship is still so good, and the taste is mellow and sweet."

Su Jin recalled that she pretended to be a dumb boy on the boat and made tea for him once. Ge Hongchou and Mr. Min were also present at that time.

She laughed, seeing the bottom of Lin Yan's cup, she refilled his cup, and said: "Young master please come here today, I hope you will forgive me."

Lin Yan looked up at her.For the sake of convenience on the boat, even after avoiding Ge Hongchou, Su Jin always wore the servant's clothes.Another accident happened at the plum garden banquet that day, so he didn't pay much attention to her attire.It was only then that she discovered that she had already dressed up as a woman, wearing plain clothes and a white jade hairpin on her head.

Only now did Lin Yan remember that she was in the filial piety period.Thinking about the destruction of the Su family, Su Jin's face darkened, and it was not easy for Su Jin.

Su Jin seemed to have misunderstood his meaning, and said, "Mr. Lin, don't misunderstand. I also know the etiquette of the world, so I shouldn't meet in private. Today's matter is reported to the stepmother, and the stepmother agrees. The stepmother It's in the compartment."

Lin Yan laughed, "Etiquette and laws in the world may not all be correct. You and I are clear on our own, and our hearts are naturally magnanimous."

Su Jin was stunned for a while, then laughed.

Lin Yan looked at the figures of the two guards at the door, "It seems that the eldest princess loves you very much."

There was a smile on the corner of Su Jin's mouth, different from the usual politeness, with a bit of gratitude and warmth, "The foster mother treats me like her own."

Lin Yan nodded slightly.

But Su Jin raised the teacup in her hand, "Young master has helped my Su family a lot. He risked his life to protect Su Jin comprehensively, and then sent his younger sister to Beijing. Su Jin couldn't repay him. Instead of wine, he thanked Young Master and the Lin family for their righteousness." !"

"Miss Su is serious."

Su Jin gulped it down, Lin Yan could only politely return.

After drinking the tea, Lin Yan cut straight to the point, "Miss Su called me here, probably not just to thank me, did she?"

Su Jin laughed, "My lord is smart, I'm afraid I've already thought of it."

"But it has something to do with Miss Shen's entering the water a few days ago?"

"Yes! Since I am the princess, I am half the master. That day I entertained the daughters of the various houses for the mother-in-law, and I was also there when the accident happened. Because Miss Shen fell into the water, the girls of all families panicked for a while, and the scene was a bit strange. Chaos. No one saw how Miss Shen fell into the water. Although I have never seen the person behind this scene, but I remember that the third lady of the Niu family was the closest to Miss Shen at that time."

Lin Yan's mind was shocked, and he suddenly thought of Mr. Niu who provoked Mo Zian.

"Zhenguo Bull's house?"

Su Jin nodded, "The eldest daughter of the Niu family is the concubine Jing in the palace."

In the palace... the Niu family is also one of the eight princes who have fallen. On the surface, it seems to be just a noble family in the early years. Now it is not very successful, and it has nothing to be valued by any prince.But what if he formed an alliance with which favorite concubine in the palace?

Su Jin went on to say: "The girl who led everyone to the water was interrogated by her adoptive mother later, and all kinds of inquiries before said that she had nothing to do with her. She didn't do it on purpose. Later I lied to her, saying that I saw her and wearing a python. The person in the dragon robe met in the mansion. She immediately panicked and said that she was instructed by the Fifth Prince."

Immediately panicked?Lin Yan frowned.

Su Jin glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Young master, do you think it's too easy? My mother-in-law and I also thought the same, so we interrogated her severely, tortured her several times, and beat her half to death. She finally changed her mind and said It's the eldest prince.

Coincidentally, after she made a confession, she said that she had failed the eldest prince's high hopes, and now that she could not bear the severe punishment and betrayed the master's family, she might not survive.Taking advantage of people's unpreparedness, he snatched the guard's saber and committed suicide. "

Lin Yan froze for a moment, and frowned a little.

Su Jin asked: "I don't know what Mr. Lin thinks?"

Lin Yan snorted softly, and said with a sneer, "You are mistaken for your cleverness! The fifth prince's chess is really deep enough."

Su Jin felt relieved, "That's right. Since she has the ability to commit suicide, she also knows that the person behind the scenes will definitely not survive. Why didn't she commit suicide before, but wait until the person behind the scenes is revealed?

She is now swearing so much that she even committed suicide to prove her words, but she never thought that this would become the biggest flaw. "

Su Jin looked up at Lin Yan with a serious expression, "Mr. Lin, the Zhen family ruined my Su family, and this revenge is only half paid.

But I'm not in a hurry, because I know that my ability is weak now, and if I act rashly, it will only be counterproductive.Moreover, my parents definitely don't want me to live in hatred, and all the beliefs in this life are only revenge.

The hatred of killing one's father and one's mother cannot be forgotten.But I still have a younger sister who needs support, and a family member of the Su family who needs me to revive.Even if there are only two daughters left in the Su family, my sister and I, the inheritance of the family style cannot be broken.

So, I am willing to wait.I'm still young and have a lot of time.I believe that I will be able to wait until the day when the Zhen family falls.

But there is a prerequisite for all of these, that is, the fifth prince cannot take the throne.I think the Lin family is the same as me in this regard.The fifth prince is in power, the situation of the Lin family is a hundred times more dangerous than mine! "

Lin Yan's fingertips trembled slightly.It has to be said that Su Jin's words shocked him very much.Even in the 21st century, such women are rare, let alone in today's world.For this, he admired, appreciated, and admired.

But what disturbed him even more was that he felt the same way.Every word of Su Jin spoke to his heart.If Lin Ruhai and Jia Min died as in the book, how is his situation different from Su Jin?

Lin Yan looked at Su Jin, as if seeing another self.

Su Jin was still talking, her eyes became more determined.

"If the Fifth Prince was still the previous Fifth Prince, I might not be so worried. But now it seems that the world is changing, and he is also changing."

Lin Yan's lips parted slightly, "What do you want to do?"

"Since we have the same purpose, why can't we cooperate?"

Lin Yan's eyes flickered, "Does the eldest princess know?"

Su Jin laughed, "Young Master, what do you think?"

Lin Yan was startled, and realized in a daze that he had asked something stupid.Since the eldest princess asked Su Jin to meet him, sent guards to protect him, and personally guarded in the compartment, how could she not know?

It seems that Su Jin's sentence as if it was her own is not an official statement.

Su Jin glanced at Lin Yan, and tried to ask: "Did you choose the third prince?"

A cold light flashed in Lin Yan's eyes, and his expression turned sharp.

Su Jin hurriedly said: "My lord, please don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of courting you, let alone prying into your secrets. Whether you choose the third prince or the eldest prince, it has nothing to do with me. I only want to cooperate with you, not behind your back." people."

Lin Yan's eyes moved slightly.Su Jin's meaning is very clear, she doesn't want to take a stand, and she has no intention of taking a stand, what she wants is that the fifth prince is not enthroned, and she only cooperates with the Lin family.That's all.

After all, the Su family is no better than the Lin family. The Lin family is still in the imperial court, and it has long been impossible to escape from this storm. Therefore, if you want to achieve your goal, it is better to choose a wise master to live in.The Su family has lost its foundation, only the second daughter is left, and with the eldest princess as the backing, they have their own way out.

"My son is outside, so I can listen to the movements of the fifth prince, and I can also know the news of the court. I am inside, with the help of my stepmother, and even the empress treats me very well. It is more convenient for me to come to me for matters in the palace."

There is nothing better than sharing information.

Lin Yan laughed and picked up the teacup, "Okay! I wish us a happy cooperation!"

Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief, imitating Lin Yan and raising her teacup, "Happy cooperation!"

The two drank a cup, and Su Jin said again: "Master Ming/Hui is now registered and settled in Plum Blossom Nunnery. It is four or five miles east of the city, not far from the Plum Garden. Sister She has returned to vulgarity, but she often goes to the small Live. I chose another girl to lead the practice in front of the teacher, firstly as a substitute for the younger sister, and secondly to take care of the teacher."

Lin Yan naturally understood that it meant that if there was any inconvenient thing in the future, he could send a message through Plum Blossom Temple.This girl who is supposed to be practicing cultivation is the middleman.

It's very thoughtful.

Lin Yan nodded, got up and said goodbye.

The partition wall on one side was opened, and Princess Qing Hui came out from the compartment.

Su Jin stood up and saluted, "Thank you step-mother!" She opened her mouth for the rest of the sentence, hesitant to speak.

The eldest princess already knew what she was thinking, and snorted coldly: "I didn't intend to fight between them, but they absolutely shouldn't, shouldn't have extended their hands to my princess mansion! I, Qinghui, am not without temper !"

The eldest princess said that she was angry, but Su Jin's expression darkened. That's what she said, but Qinghui's status was obvious. No matter who came to the throne, she was the eldest princess, so there was really no need to get involved.

She knelt down, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, Mr. Lin is a trustworthy person. I have made it clear that he will not let a third party know. Even if he fails in the future, it will be my involvement with him. I..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the Eldest Princess laughed and bent down to help her up, "I have no son or daughter, and I am alone. Since you call me a foster mother, why don't I help you? Who can decide? What's more, as long as the emperor is here, even if he is the prince, he will not dare to touch me. And if the emperor..."

The eldest princess couldn't help laughing at herself, "I'm not young anymore, who knows if I will walk ahead of the emperor."

Su Jin was in a hurry, "The foster mother will live a hundred years, she will definitely..."

The eldest princess interrupted her with a wave of her hand, "Life is a matter of life and death, I don't care too much about it. I have all the glory and wealth in my life, and I have lived enough."

Saying that, the eldest princess looked back at Su Jin, "Do you still remember why you entered the palace that day? Under such circumstances, I insisted on accepting you as a righteous daughter. You fell into the water, and I even made a fuss in front of the imperial court to save you." Seek justice. One after another, which one is not against Lao Wu? Do you think I can get rid of it?"

Su Jin felt cold all over, and tightly grasped the princess's sleeve, "Mother-in-law, that...then..."

"You want to ask, since I knew this earlier, why did I accept you as a adopted daughter?" The eldest princess patted her hand lightly, her expression softened, "Because you are like me."

Su Jin was stunned, thinking about it in a trance.In the 36th year of Yongning, the Great Zhou fought against Beirong, and the commander was Zhenbeihou, who was also the husband-in-law of the eldest princess.At the beginning, he won many times and achieved a lot of victories.Seeing that they were about to hit Beirong Imperial Court.But Prince Yizhong's faction started to think about it.

The eldest princess and today are the same mother and compatriot.Hou Ye's military industry has increased greatly, and his reputation has spread far and wide, which is a great disaster for Prince Yizhong.Therefore, the lieutenant general of the army designed to inform Bei Rong and lure Zhen Beihou into a trap.

In that battle, Zhenbei Hou was isolated and helpless, and died in battle with three thousand soldiers, and none of them survived.Bei Rong even hung the head of the Marquis of Zhenbei in front of the battle to make a name for himself.Our army lost its commander, and the morale of the army was slackened. The situation was good, but it was caught off guard by Bei Rong.

The eldest princess was raising a baby in a town hundreds of miles away. When she heard the news, she rushed to the barracks overnight, and fought on behalf of her husband in armor. After several fierce battles, she managed to stop Bei Rong outside Yumen Pass and brought back the corpse of Marquis Zhenbei.

But because of this, the fetus in the womb could not be kept.It was a five-month-old baby girl.

The eldest princess was very sad, and after returning to Beijing, she made a big fuss in the Jinluan Palace, pointing her sword at Prince Yizhong, if the late emperor hadn't stopped him in time, blood would have splashed on the palace.However, due to insufficient evidence, Prince Yizhong had to be punished behind closed doors.

Fortunately, Prince Yizhong was already bad. The first emperor was suspicious, and supporting the current eldest princess to marry Zhenbeihou was also to balance the present.

Now that such an accident happened, although the first emperor didn't want to deal with it, he had a complete grudge against Prince Yizhong and became more and more strict.Prince Yizhong also saw that the situation was somewhat dangerous, and for the sake of superiority and self-protection, he embarked on the road of rebellion and forcing the palace.

Su Jin lowered her head, feeling ashamed, the eldest princess is a heroine, how can she be compared with the eldest princess?

The eldest princess closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks, "If the child was born safely, she should be as old as you. Forget about the imperial doctor, she should have been born in April."

I was also born in April.Su Jin understood.Princess, this is empathy.

She opened her mouth, "Mother-in-law!"

The eldest princess shook her head, "You don't have to. I know you are not her, and I have never regarded you as her. You are you, just another daughter of mine."

Su Jin was startled, her eye circles instantly turned red, her nasal voice trembled and she choked up, "Mother-in-law!"

The eldest princess held her in her arms and patted her on the back.

If you want to talk about the emperor's mind, the eldest princess knows it.He was afraid that there would be another Prince Yizhong, so he wanted to balance everywhere, unable to make up his mind.But what is the difference between this approach and the previous emperor?

Besides, since he intends to start a war against the northwest, but the court still acts like this, isn't he afraid that what happened to the Marquis of Zhenbei will happen again?

The eldest princess's expression darkened, and she hugged Su Jin even tighter, "No hurry. I'm here for everything! I've lived most of my life, and I haven't seen any ups and downs.

Since you are my only daughter, how could I not think of you?In the future, what is not involved or not, is not allowed to be mentioned again. "

Su Jin responded in a low voice, tears were falling like rain, and she couldn't make a sound.

The author has something to say: I have always wanted to write about ancient legendary women.Su Jin counts as one, and so does the eldest princess.

The two heroine candidates, Su Jin, I have basically described the character background of this person.

Shen Yuan's ink is relatively less.Will write in the next chapter.

When the basic temperaments of the two are fully revealed, you can stand in line.

I plan to choose who will be the final CP based on your standing.

The reason why it is called CP, not the heroine, is still the same sentence, there are not many emotional lines.

Even if there are roles, many of them are related to the court or other aspects, and there are not many emotional entanglements with the hero and heroine.
