The Fate of the Red Chamber

Since Jia Lian received the letter from home, she secretly praised the old lady for being wise, and she solved the problem in front of her with a few words.Going to make friends with Mo Han twice in three days, hoping that once Lin Ruhai dies, Mo Han will follow his own words and go to the capital.Annoying Mo Han so much that he could only deal with him occasionally, he still called Xia Cheng to accompany Jia Lian on the pretext that his father was not in good health and wanted to serve him by the bed.

That night, Daiyu was laughing with her father in her father's room, and only then had a meal to eliminate food.

Mo Han strode in hastily, still wearing the clothes he was wearing to meet guests, his brows were slightly wrinkled, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he was very stern.

The father and daughter were taken aback, Daiyu first asked: "Didn't my brother say that I would be back later today, but there is something urgent, please sit down and rest."

Mo Han suddenly remembered that Daiyu was a woman in the boudoir, and it seemed inconvenient to hear such things according to the rules here, so he was startled, his expression turned back, and he finally said: "Father, sister, I'm the one who discusses things with the second brother of the Liu family. , They sent back an urgent message from Beijing, but they still don’t know whether it’s accurate or not?”

Seeing Mo Han's expression, it is not a small matter that can change the face of this normally immobile person, let alone something about the capital, Lin Ruhai didn't care about Daiyu's presence, and hurriedly asked: "What major event happened in the capital?"

"It is rumored that the emperor, the emperor has passed away."

"What?" Lin Ruhai was stunned, his eyes widened, and suddenly he spat out a mouthful of blood, causing Mo Han and Dai Yu to panic.

"Sister, take good care of father. I'll invite Imperial Physician Hua to come over." After finishing speaking, Mo Han helped Lin Ruhai onto the kang, turned around and rushed out, and couldn't wait for the maids to invite him, so he rushed to Imperial Physician Hua's residence .

In just a moment, Mo Han pulled Imperial Physician Hua over. Physician Hua examined the pulse carefully for a while, frowned and remained silent. After a while, Fang and Mo Han went outside and asked in a strict voice: "Did Master Lin suffer any stimulation?" , rushing to the heart, the heart is fluctuating, I will prescribe a prescription to calm the liver and calm the qi. It’s just that the inside has been damaged, I’m afraid the medicine and food won’t work, and I won’t last for a long time.”

Mo Han's eyes turned red, although he knew that Lin Ruhai's days were numbered, but if he hadn't been impulsive just now, he might have persisted for a while, how could he be worthy of him and Daiyu?In a low voice, she instructed Bai Hui to follow Imperial Physician Hua to get the prescription in person, fry it carefully and send it in quickly, thanked Imperial Physician Hua herself, and turned back to the room full of remorse.

Lin Ruhai woke up a long time ago, with a sallow complexion and an unrestrained breath. When he saw Mo Han coming in, he looked at him with anxious eyes, but he was worried about the emperor rather than his own illness.Daiyu's eyes were red, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, she stared at Mo Han eagerly.

"Father, I'm sorry, I didn't know what to scare you, it's my son's fault." Mo Han felt guilty and heartbroken, and knelt down in front of Lin Ruhai's bed.

"What are you doing? What does my own poor health have to do with you? Besides, it's about the emperor. You are also worried about being a father, so you can get better." Lin Ruhai's voice was weak, obviously because of the lack of energy in his heart.

As soon as Lin Ruhai opened her mouth, Daiyu had already walked to her elder brother, pulled him up forcefully, and said angrily: "The whole family depends on elder brother, and my father's body needs to be healed by elder brother. If elder brother is wrong, then Yu'er will It's the most useless." At the end, he choked up sobbing hard, turned his head and hurriedly wiped away his tears with a handkerchief.

Mo Han also knew that even if he knelt for a few days and nights, it would be useless, so he had to suppress his sadness and try to persuade Daiyu instead.

"Han'er, is the emperor's matter correct?" Now this is the question that Lin Ruhai is most concerned about.

"The Liu family heard it from a reliable place in Beijing. It should be [-]% accurate. Otherwise, they would not report to Jiangnan rashly. Brother Liu has already rushed back to Nanxun." Second brother Liu is Liu Liangrui's second son, Liu Haojie. Befriended Mo Han, and is currently in charge of the business of the Liu family Jiangnan.

The Cao Gang of the Liu family is spread all over the country, they come and go frequently, and the news spreads the fastest, especially in order to protect the family business, they have a special news network in the capital. It's coming.

The emperor was in his fifties, but he was always in good health. He had never heard of anything bad, and there were no rumors recently. How could he pass away immediately.If the emperor knew that he could not afford it, he should have sent his confidant to send a letter based on his relationship with him, how could he not know at all?Or is there something unexpected about the emperor?

The more Lin Ruhai thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was extraordinary and could not be ignored, but his family lived far away in the south of the Yangtze River for hundreds of years, and the power in Beijing was much weaker, so it was not easy to inquire about it.

"Han'er, it's about the society and the safety of the Lin family. You have to find out accurate information in the shortest possible time at all costs. Being a father, I can't help you. You go, I just have your sister here. Whenever you get news, you must reply to Father as soon as possible.”

"Father, the child will go first, father, don't worry too much, maybe it's just a rumor. Sister, you should be careful yourself, don't get too tired." Lin Ruhai is the Jiangnan Salt Administration, and the change of monarch has a great influence, not to mention it is so weird thing.Mo Han could well understand his father's urgent mood at this time, so he no longer forced himself to leave the house in a hurry.

I went to the Yangzhou magistrate's mansion first, but there was no movement as calm as the night in the past, so I knew that the Yangzhou magistrate must not know.He rushed to Lujiazhuang outside the city, but there was no response there either.Until the middle of the night, they actually received a message from the Cha family, confirming the rumors of the emperor's death.Not daring to delay, he hurried back to the Lin residence.Along the way, I suddenly wondered if my father's reaction to hearing the emperor's death just now was a bit too much, unlike his usual calm person, could it be that his father has some relationship with the emperor?

In the Lin residence, Lin Ruhai never rested, and after taking the medicine, he sent Daiyu back to rest.Daiyu refused in every possible way, how could she sleep, but she couldn't resist her father's wishes, so she had to go back to her yard disconsolately.

"Father, father?" Mo Han thought that Lin Ruhai was asleep, so he was unwilling to wake him up, but he had to call him softly, and shook Lin Ruhai's body.

Actually, Lin Ruhai didn't fall asleep, he was just thinking about something, and he was too absorbed in his thoughts just now, so he didn't hear Mo Han's footsteps.

"How is it, any news?"

"Well, the Cha family sent a secret letter, and the emperor passed away. He died on the night of four days ago, in the early morning of August [-]. There is no clear news about the specific situation, but the Cha family in the capital mentioned that the storm is coming. Be careful in everything." Mo Han straightened Lin Ruhai's body, and fed him some water to moisten his throat.
