Jia Min's Counterattack

After Lin Ruhai and Jia Min finished their lunch, they went to the study in the main courtyard together. Jia Min practiced calligraphy while Lin Ruhai read.The two don't disturb each other, but they are extremely harmonious and warm.Lin Ruhai suddenly thought of Liu Cheng, and said to Jia Min, "Min'er, do you still remember Liu Xianglian?"

Jia Min raised his head to look at Lin Ruhai, put the pen in his hand on the pen stand, and tilted his head to think for a while, "Oh! I remembered, why does the name sound so familiar to me! It's the one left in the Duke of Li's mansion. The only heir, the libertine!"

"Actually, that child is pure in nature, upright and selfless, and has good kung fu passed down in the family. It's just that he was not taught since he was a child, and he grew up with some dudes and squandered all the family wealth left by his ancestors. I heard that he Later, I joined the army, and I don’t know what the result will be.”

"According to what you say, what a pity for such a good boy!" Jia Min walked to the chair opposite Lin Ruhai and sat down.

Lin Ruhai picked up the teapot and poured her a cup of hot tea and handed it over, "Isn't it!"

"Why does my husband think of him?"

"That's right, the first winner of this year's Winter Hunting Competition is Liu Xianglian's father, Liu Cheng, Duke Li's only son."

"Really? I remember that this Liu Cheng is not very old, but he is quite capable!" Jia Min said in surprise.

"I was also very surprised. The emperor was very happy, and directly appointed him as the imperial bodyguard, and he was promoted to five levels in a row. Many people are jealous!"

"It's useless to be jealous! This young talent is not comparable to anyone."

"Yes! There are not many 15-year-old fifth-rank captains throughout the ages.

what! ”

"Why haven't I heard of such a character in the last life?"

"In the last life, Liu Cheng also became a blockbuster during this winter hunting, and also became the imperial guard. But he was too young and didn't know how to get along with the people in the palace, so he was always jealous and excluded by others. He was upright and righteous, He also didn't show himself in front of the emperor. After a long time, the emperor forgot about him. It was more than ten years later that Li Guogong gave the emperor a table and asked Liu Cheng for a foreign job. The emperor thought of him. The emperor also intended to let him He went to the army to practice, so he was given the post of deputy envoy of the Liangzhe Propaganda and Comfort Envoy. Unfortunately, within a few years, both he and his wife were killed in accidents. The only son Liu Xianglian who just turned eight years old was left alone in the world."

"Liu Cheng's kung fu is so good, and he is a general of the fourth rank. With the guards around, how could he die unexpectedly?"

Lin Ruhai frowned and shook his head, "I don't know, I checked it in my previous life, but I didn't find any results!"

"Husband wants to help the Liu family?" Jia Min asked tentatively.

"I have this idea, but I'm afraid that if I have been in close contact with Liu Cheng, the emperor will become suspicious."

Jia Min smiled and said: "I think my husband can communicate with him generously, and let the emperor know that you appreciate Liu Cheng."

"What does Min'er mean?"

"Peace and harmony!"

Lin Ruhai laughed immediately when she heard that, "Min'er is really smart. Indeed, the emperor is currently short of loyal generals. He must be happy to see Liu Cheng and I get along in harmony."

"It's not that I'm smart, but that the husband is a fan of the government!"

While the two were chatting and laughing, Dongmei outside the door said loudly: "Master and Madam, there are distinguished guests at home!"

Lin Ruhai and Jia Min looked at each other, neither knowing who this distinguished guest was.To be on the safe side, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min went to the front hall to meet this honored guest.After entering the front hall, I saw two men, one old and one young, the young man was very handsome with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, it was the Liu Cheng they were talking about just now, the old man was wearing a purple python robe, looking up at them with his back Both of them were stunned when they saw the plaque hanging above the hall, and immediately went forward to salute after recovering.

"No! There are not so many rules outside! Ruhai, your daughter-in-law is still pregnant, help her to sit down."

"Your majesty, why are you here? No, you didn't let anyone know why you came, so that I can prepare in advance! Are you the only two here? Where is Eunuch Shi? Where are the other guards?!" Lin Ruhai helped When Jia Min got up, there were a lot of questions.

"Stop! I just found out today that you are also so wordy! Shi Youfu went to arrange other guards!"

Jia Min ordered someone to replace it with good Pu'er tea.

"How does Mrs. Lin know that I love Pu'er?" The emperor was very happy with Jia Min's thoughtfulness.

"If you go back to the emperor, the concubine heard it from my father when she was in her boudoir."

"Sit down quickly, you don't have to be restrained." The emperor sat on his hands, and Liu Chengcheng stood beside him.The emperor pointed to the plaque above his head and asked Liu Cheng, "Liu Cheng, do you know the origin of the words on it?"

"I don't know, please ask the emperor to clarify." Liu Cheng replied respectfully.

"The words "loyalty, filial piety, honesty and justice" on this plaque were written by Dingyuanhou, the ancestor of the Lin family. This Dingyuanhou was the founding father of our dynasty. He was originally a scholar. Emperor Taizu's military at that time. These four words are the portrayal of his life, and they have also become the family motto of their Lin family. Is what Ru Haizhen said right?"

"What the emperor said is that the Lin family taught that every child of the Lin family must kneel in front of this plaque before enlightenment, listen to the legacy of the ancestors, and inherit the legacy of the ancestors!"

"So let me tell you that the Lin family is a family with a profound heritage, and Ru Hai is a rare gentleman." The emperor said to Liu Cheng.

"I am ashamed, I am far from inheriting the wind from my ancestors!" Lin Ruhai said modestly.

"You are too humble. You are only in your early twenties now. In ten years or so, your style will not be weaker than theirs. You have not shamed your ancestors!"

"Master Lin is full of talent and character, I really admire him!" Liu Cheng also said sincerely.

"Thank you Master Liu for your compliment, Ru Hai just doesn't want to lose face to his ancestors!"

"Master Lin is polite, just call me Chengyi!"

"Okay, brother Chengyi, a young talent, showed his talents during the winter hunting, and he is so admired by the sea!"

"Just now my husband was still telling me about Mr. Liu's deeds during the winter hunting. I never expected that you have such great abilities at such a young age, and Duke Li has taught you well!" Jia Min also said with a smile.

"Hahaha... Li Guogong is indeed a good person, and it is indeed difficult for a talent like Chengyi. You are the pillars of the country, and I am lucky to meet you!" Lin Ruhai and Liu Cheng listened Hastily bowed and said that he did not dare to bear it.

Jia Min felt that it would be inappropriate to stay any longer, "If the emperor doesn't dislike it, I will have dinner in the mansion tonight before returning to the palace. It just so happens that the chrysanthemum brewed by my concubine is ready to drink, please respect the emperor and taste it."

The emperor called Eunuch Shi, who was waiting outside the door, to come in, "Did you just go and arrange the guards?"

"Reporting to the emperor, the housekeeper in Lin's residence has already helped to arrange it."

The emperor nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's drink a few cups of chrysanthemum brewing here in Ruhai today before going back!"
