[Red House] Raiders of life

After another two days, Xu got used to the shaking of the boat, and Lin Yi's symptoms all eased.The Lin family's boat began to sail at a normal speed.Perhaps it was because the Lin family was delayed two days ago, or maybe the Xue family was too anxious, so the Xue family boarded the boat faster than the Lin family.

Lin Ning refuted the message when he was docking for supplies, but we never met.After Xue Ling, the head of the Xue family, died, Xue Pan couldn't support the family business. Lin Ning was too lazy to take care of such a Xue family.She has no obsession with meeting Baochai, one of the twelve beauties in Jinling.

On October [-], the ship arrived in Beijing.Lin Ning brought the children back to the mansion, and an angel came before they were finished. One came to deliver an order for Lin Ning to enter the palace tomorrow to meet the queen mother, and two, the emperor specially arranged for an imperial physician to see Lin Yi.

This attitude is enough to show how much the emperor attaches importance to the Lin family.Because the Empress Dowager Yizhi never said that the children must be taken, that is to say, they can take them or not.Lin Ning didn't have the idea of ​​how honorable it would be if she entered the palace once and met the queen mother, and there were strict rules in the palace. She was impatient to let her children suffer, so she didn't bring any of them.

The next day, Lin Ning entered the palace alone, and Lin Jin brought his younger siblings to Jia's mansion to meet him. After all, he was from his natal family, so etiquette still needs to be in place.

The Empress Dowager is not in very good health, and she just got the emperor's order. Because the Empress Yuan died early and had no successor, she could only be summoned in the name of the Empress Dowager.Ben also just wanted to show the attitude of the emperor, and also meant to support the Lin family, so there was nothing important.Lin Ning talked with the queen mother for a while, seeing that the queen mother was tired, he said goodbye and left the palace.

The children didn't come back until it was too late.Lin Nuo is still young and innocent, he only sees food in his eyes, just like a snack.After I came back, I just kept talking about what was delicious and what was not delicious in my grandparents' house.Lin Jin and Lin Yi had different expressions on Daiyu's face, only Lin Xun was annoyed, but also had a look of excitement that was eager to try, which made Lin Ning confused.

The children kept silent, and Lin Ning didn't ask much.On the second day, Lin Jin was instructed by Lin Ruhai to go to Xu Ge's old mansion where he had already sent a scholar.He is Lin Ruhai's teacher.He also helped Lin Ruhai a lot in his official career.Lin Ruhai has never returned to Beijing, and as the eldest son, Lin Jinruan should pay a visit.

Lin Xun was a restless person, he ran out every day, and within seven days, he was already acquainted with Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan and others in Beijing.But according to his own words, it's enough to have fun together, if you want to talk to each other, you don't have to.

On the eighth day, Lin Ning heard that Jia Baoyu and Xue Pan were abducted into an alley and beaten with sacks.

Lin Ning raised his forehead and looked at Lin Xun's vivid words, his face was full of regret, and he hated that the slap was too light.Finally said: "Let's see if he still dares to talk nonsense with his sister! He thinks it's great to have a jade! If the third brother didn't think about it early and blocked his words, he might have to take words for his sister!"

Lin Jin glanced at Lin Ning, seeing that Lin Ning had no intention of interfering, so he pursed his lips and said, "So, you just beat him up? This time, he's a good boy and knows how to put on a sack!"

Lin Xun didn't see any joy or anger in front of Lin Jin, but he felt in his heart that he was right, and he was covered in sacks, and he didn't cause any trouble like what happened to Zhen Baoyu, so he straightened his neck and said, "Of course! Did he bully his sister?"

Lin Jin asked again: "What about Xue Pan? He didn't provoke his sister, let alone you?"

Lin Xun curled his lips, "I can't stand it, so I beat him up together! Who told him to be with Jia Baoyu at that time!"

Um... so confident!Young man, your reasoning is so reasonable that it is impossible to refute it!

Seeing that Lin Jin's complexion was not good, Lin Xun quickly pulled Lin Yi over, "The third brother came up with the idea, and it was the third brother who went with me. The bruise on Jia Baoyu's left eye was caused by the third brother!"

Both Lin Ning and Lin Jin were taken aback, very surprised.Lin Yi secretly hated, but it was really his own brother, so he just sold him out!He pushed Lin Xun away, bowed his head and said, "Grandson knew he was wrong, and he is willing to be punished."

He didn't look like he was willing to be punished at all, he was sure that Lin Ning would not be punished.Lin Ning sighed, it was rare for the well-behaved and sensible Lin Yi to beat someone so lively, instead of being angry, he was very happy, hugged Lin Yi and said, "I know it's right to protect my sister."

Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Lin Jin's light questioning, "Have you finished all the books and homework that father told you to copy?"

Lin Xun's back stiffened, and his smiling face instantly collapsed, "Brother, grandma won't pursue it anymore!"

"Oh! Did I pursue it? Didn't your father arrange it for you early in the morning?"

Lin Xun complained: That's what I said, but my father won't be able to go to Beijing for a while, and he didn't tell me to finish it now!This is clearly an excuse!

However, Lin Jin didn't give him a chance to refute at all, so he pleaded guilty to Lin Ning, and dragged Lin Xun's arm directly to the study!

Lin Yi was in a hurry, and seemed to want to intercede, but was stopped by Lin Ning, "You really care about it, and you will be confused. Where is the cleverness in the past!"

Lin Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Lin Jin was indeed making use of the problem, but he just found an excuse to restrain Lin Xun, so as to prevent his temperament from causing any trouble in the capital!

In the study room, while Lin Xun was writing silently, he sneaked a look at Lin Jin who was writing hard on the opposite side.

"concentrate!"

When Lin Xun heard these two words, his heart froze. He really wanted to ask Lin Jin if he had eyes on the top of his head. He didn't lift his head, but he knew his every move.Looking down at the palm of his left hand, which had already received five boards, he curled his lips sullenly, and pressed his mind to read silently, but he hadn't read a word since he got on the boat. When you come to the capital, you will go where there is delicious food and fun.How can I still remember the book I memorized back then.

He frowned and racked his brains, unable to remember what the next sentence would be, and he didn't want to be beaten again. If he made a mistake and typed a word on the board, he didn't dare to write at all!

"Brother! Look, you are about to have a spring. Father and Mr. Xu have given you a lot of test papers, and you have to do your homework every day by three shifts."

Lin Jin finally raised his head and looked at him.Lin Xun felt a little guilty for a moment, but he still bit the bullet and finished, "You see, you are already so busy, my brother won't bother you. Why don't I go to my grandmother's place to read silently."

Lin Jin stared at him for a long time, the paper under his brush had been silent for a long time, how could Lin Jin not know?

That look made Lin Xun's scalp numb, and just when he thought his palms were going to suffer again, Lin Jin got up and put a few books in front of Lin Xun, "You are good at math, but the classics are not good enough. The Four Books and Five Classics are a must." For the test subjects, I have sorted out all the places where you usually make mistakes for you."

Lin Xun was surprised, "Brother, aren't you writing policy theory?"

Lin Jin glanced at him, but didn't answer, "If you can understand all the places I picked out and the notes I gave, the entrance examination for Yanshan Academy will not be a problem in the next year."

Lin Xun grasped the point, "Yanshan Academy?"

Lin Jin looked at his ignorant look and laughed angrily, "Did you think that you were sent to Beijing for fun? You don't need to read books anymore?"

Lin Xun was agitated, Yanshan Academy, he had admired the name for a long time, but kept it at a respectful distance!There are not many students in Yanshan Academy because the admission standards are extremely strict.Whether you are a prince or a poor student, you need to pass the entrance examination before you can enter school.Moreover, Lin Ruhai once showed them the entrance examination papers of Yanshan Academy, which were comparable to the provincial examinations.

Lin Xun's heart trembled, and he felt that his hard days were coming.

Lin Jin sighed, patted his head, and softened his tone a lot, "I know your temperament, if you can, it may be more suitable for you to go to the military camp to take the route of a general. But, you have to know that since ancient times, civil and military can't become a family. My father is a civil servant, and I will be a civil servant in the future. Besides, with my father's current status, the emperor values ​​it. If he can do business in Yangzhou and come to Beijing, he will probably be in charge of a minister. The emperor regards his father as a future cabinet minister nurtured."

"Now our family still has Chongwen Academy in the south of the Yangtze River. Although it is not under the name of the Lin family, no one knows the relationship between this academy and our family, and there are many members of our Lin family who work in the academy. The reputation of the academy has gradually increased over the years. Our Lin family has also become famous. With the influence of my Lin family ancestors in the literary world. If you are allowed to join the army at this time, even if you are just a low-level soldier, there are too many people who can make friends with your status. At that time, the emperor may think deeply about the Lin family. The intention of this move."

Nima!You are already so influential in the scholastic community, do you still want to make friends and be in charge of military power?Is this trying to rebel, or is it trying to rebel!

Lin Xun reacted and shuddered. Fortunately, he was undecided, and he had never thought that he must follow the path of a general. Therefore, when Lin Jin told him about these things, he naturally knew how powerful he was, and raised his head. Said: "Actually, I didn't even think about joining the army. I actually want to do...er..."

"What do you want to do?"

Lin Xun shrank his neck, "If I say it, you will get angry, so I won't say it!"

Lin Jin was angry, "Say!"

"You promise me first, don't get angry, don't hit me, otherwise..."

"Just say what you want, there are so many words!"

"I would rather be a hero, fighting with swords, punishing evil and promoting good, chic... Ouch!" Before Lin Xun could finish speaking, he was slapped on the head, and said sullenly, "I can't even say anything." , you must tell me."

"Don't read so many scripts in the future!"

Lin Jin's face was almost dark, and he said straight, it is better not to let him speak.
