Ten Miles of Spring Breeze in Red Mansions

The aristocratic family has its own method of sending messages, Ming Yifeng received a secret report from Yangzhou, and immediately asked the servant to invite Cheng Lin.

Cheng Lin lived in the palace as a guest and arrived in a hurry. The boy on the way had already told him that after reading the letter, the crown prince had a bad complexion. He wondered all the way if something happened to the crown prince.

Ming Yifeng had already pushed back the servants around him, and dragged him over, "Look for yourself."

Cheng Lin was stunned, "How could this be? When I left, it was clear that he was still very well."

Lin Ruhai was seriously ill.

"This is strange. The letter is from Lu Yi, who happens to be in Yangzhou. You immediately go to the Lin Mansion to pick up his girl. I will arrange an official ship for you and leave immediately." Ming Yifeng made a plan while waiting, " I have already sent people to call Brother Ji, imperial physicians are not available, Yan Jingshan had two military doctors from the imperial hospital at that time, and they were also from the Xinglin family, ask Brother Ji to take them with you."

"Is the person reliable?" Cheng Lin calmed down.

"Reliable. I think it will be a few days before the news on the bright side." Ming Yifeng took out the name card of Prince Guang's Mansion from the hidden compartment, "in case of emergencies."

Cheng Lin didn't say much, "I'm going to the Lin Mansion right away."

There might be a turning point with the military doctor or Lu Yi.But if Lin Ruhai really couldn't hold on anymore, Lin Daiyu would be able to see him for the last time.

The two looked at each other, and suddenly remembered something, Cheng Lin said, "It must be slower for me to take the eldest lady to walk the waterway, you borrow eight hundred miles from the Ministry of War to expedite it, and send a letter to Lu Yi."

Ming Yifeng looked at him, waiting for his next words.

Cheng Lin sighed, "Let Ruhai decide on an heir as soon as possible, it's too late to have a child now."

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Ming Yifeng felt that it was the same as what he thought, and when he heard the second half, he wished he could go up and give him a kick. He raised his hand and said, "Get out of here with your witty words, I'll write a letter right away."

Cheng Lin arrived at the Lin Mansion non-stop. He is Lin Ruhai's staff member, so he is naturally respected.

He purposely went to Nanny Yu first, fearing that the old lady wouldn't be able to bear it, so he said slowly, "I have something to tell Nanny and Eldest Miss, so don't be in a hurry."

Seeing that his expression was different from the past, Mammy Yu guessed a bit, "But something happened to the master?"

Cheng Lin saw that although she was a little anxious, she was still very calm, so he breathed a sigh of relief quietly, "Your Excellency is seriously ill, Mammy can help you pack your luggage, and we will return to Yangzhou immediately after the ship is arranged."

Nanny Yu pinched her own tiger's mouth, and the pain shuddered, "I don't know if sir can escort my sister and son together?"

"It should be so, and there are two doctors accompanied by Brother Yan Jiaji." Cheng Lin said again, "Mother, can you let me see the eldest lady?"

As soon as he said this, he felt abrupt. Although Lin Daiyu is talented and proficient in calligraphy and painting, she is still a little girl, so what can she do?

Nanny Yu thought for a moment, but agreed.

The old lady thought very clearly, since she had taught Lin Daiyu to be a housekeeper, she should also know about many affairs of the family. Could it be possible that she could hide in the study all her life and be a talented woman who would not eat and drink.

There are complete eggs under the overturned nest.

Half an hour later, Cheng Lin saw Lin Daiyu, and there was a screen between them.

"Follow the matter urgently, Missy, don't blame Cheng for being abrupt." Cheng Lin said.

Nanny Li and Nanny were beside Lin Daiyu, Lin Daiyu's eyes were red, she had just heard that Lin Ruhai was seriously ill and had already cried a lot, she wished she could fly back to Yangzhou to be beside her father in an instant.

Lin Daiyu said, "Mr. is father's right-hand man, where do you say that. But do you want to entrust me with something?"

"It's not unusual for your lord to be seriously ill this time. I'm afraid the eldest lady will have a hard time going back to the south this time. Just don't show any traces, just treat it as an ordinary return home."

Dare to do something to Lin Ruhai, may not be afraid to do something to Lin Daiyu, some accidents on the waterway, there is no way to hide.

Lin Daiyu followed Lin Ruhai and met Jiangnan salt merchants, "Just don't worry, sir, people in the Lin family are tight-lipped people. I think my father blocked someone's way to wealth. The powerful and rich, kill everyone What."

It's already a sneer.

An imperial merchant can beat people to death just to grab a girl. It's not surprising that her father mastered the salt class and was murdered.

Although it was out of date, Cheng Lin's eyes lit up, this woman was unusual.

He came up with the idea of ​​seeing Lin Daiyu, but he was afraid that she would leak the news by crying and startle the snake. Now, except for the instigator and them, no one else knows about Lin Ruhai's serious illness.

He stood up and said goodbye, "Then Cheng will go to prepare first."

"It's up to you, sir."

As soon as Cheng Lin left, Lin Daiyu's forced composure disappeared again, and she covered her face and began to cry, her mother didn't want her anymore, if her father would leave her too?

Madam Li waited for her to finish crying, and called for someone to wash her face, "Besides the usual ones, what kind of luggage does the girl need to bring?"

Lin Daiyu threw the handkerchief back into the basin, splashing a little water, she would never do such a disrespectful gesture on weekdays, but today her mood fluctuated too much, she said, "Just bring some clothes, light and simple, habitual I brought my study room and books with me, and asked the steward to buy the earthen instruments of the capital. The valuables in my room next to me, as well as the books in the study room, were all locked in the warehouse and asked Xue Yuan to stay and watch. She and I have the longest time, I can hold back."

Nanny Yu was going back together, so there was no mother in charge in the inner courtyard.She was afraid that things like Shiqing back then would happen again.

Nanny Li admired her, and she was also worried that Lin Daiyu was only crying for her father, and she was relieved to see that she was still in order despite her sadness.

But that day and night, Lin Daiyu slept very restlessly, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Xueque poured warm milk, mixed some honey, held a small bowl and said, "Miss, drink some milk, so you can sleep better."

Lin Daiyu's eyes were red and swollen, and she was almost the same as Taoer, she said softly, "You can just sleep, I have something on my mind, and I can't sleep even after drinking."

Xueque insisted on standing in front of the bed, refusing to take her away, "Miss, think about it when your wife was seriously ill, you stayed in bed with your wife until the end. Now there is still a long way to go, so you should take care of yourself .”

Lin Daiyu just took it, reluctantly drank it, rinsed her mouth again, and fell back in dismay, "Xueque, I'm really scared."

"Master's auspicious person has his own natural appearance, and nothing will happen. The princess's mansion has specially found a good doctor. You may not have seen the master for a long time. Let's take care of him well. When the time comes, we will go to greet him in a beautiful way." , He must be very happy to see that you have grown taller. Man, you will be cured of all diseases when you are happy." Xueque sat on the edge of the bed and patted her on the back. This was learned from Jia Min before.Lin Daiyu was weak, drank more medicine than food, and couldn't sleep well at night. Jia Min was not sick at that time, and patted her back every day to lull her daughter to sleep. Later, the big maid in the room followed suit.

The blow was very gentle, Lin Daiyu forced herself to empty her head and slowly fell asleep.

Seeing that her breathing had stabilized, Xueque lay back on the pedals again, her eyes flushed.It will be fine after passing this hurdle, the girl is so good, she must have a good life.

Ming Yilan arrived early the next morning, and Lin Daiyu was applying cold water to her eyes.

Ming Yilan said, "I won't go back with you this time, I'll leave Qiu Xin to you. She's been by my side all the time, and she's quite astute."

Next month is Jinshang's birthday, whether the crown prince can be released from the confinement depends on it, she really can't get away.

Lin Daiyu pursed her lips, and returned a small smile, "I have Mammy Li by my side, and the Xueques still need to be used. The princess should keep Sister Qiuxin."

Ming Yilan hugged her and said, "If you are brother Yan, you can do whatever you want, you are a delicate girl, I can't bear you."

"Although I'm a girl, I'm still somewhat useful." Lin Daiyu said slowly, "I used to listen to the princess teach Brother Yan to endure what ordinary people can't bear, to endure what ordinary people can't bear. Now brother Yan's painting and calligraphy are far better than me. .Maybe there is no reason why he worked harder than me."

She spoke very seriously, and Ming Yilan listened very seriously.

"I am a delicate girl, but I also have the ambition not to lose others. If I were a boy, my mother would not die of depression because of no heirs. Hundreds of boats compete for the top, and the one who strives first. But I don't even have a single word "competition" I can't get it. There is something at home, and the princess and Mr. Cheng are taking care of me." She smiled sadly, "I know that I am a bit out of order, but I only talk to the princess."

After Ming Yilan listened, "Good boy. Don't think too much, you have done a good job. We take care of you because you are still young. It is not convenient for girls in the world, but you have such ambition. I didn't love you for nothing. Aspirations are lofty, and there is nothing against the rules. On the contrary, this is the foundation of the family. I am only worried that you are too high-spirited, and your eyes are clean. Articles. Just don’t forget your heart.”

Lin Daiyu chewed these two sentences secretly for a while, as if she had realized something, she nodded in agreement.

Ming Yilan changed the subject, "I have prepared the earthen instrument of the capital for you, and you just take it back."

Nanny Li said, "Young lady ordered people to buy them yesterday, saying that some are old friends of the family and some are colleagues of the master in Yangzhou City, and they need to take care of them."

Ming Yilan was very relieved, and patted Lin Daiyu's hand, "I'm afraid you won't grow up, and I feel sorry for you. When I was your age, I was still acting like a baby in the arms of the Queen Mother."

"Aren't I acting like a baby here too?" Lin Daiyu blinked.

The princess said it was easy, but she didn't believe it. The queen mother is the most honorable woman in the world. If she hadn't put in a lot of thought, how could she be favored by her old man.

It was not an easy road for the Princess.

Two days later, Lin Daiyu embarked on a boat back to Yangzhou.Although Ming Yilan said he didn't care about Yan Ji, she still left Nanny Liu to take care of him.

Lin Daiyu talked less and less, and she had to copy scriptures to pray for her parents all day long, and she was extremely devout.

From time to time, Nanny Liu would go to her boat to have a look when she docked, and she was relieved to see that everything was in order on the boat.

The closer she was to Yangzhou, the more Lin Daiyu became more and more timid, fearing that she would receive bad news from her father if she was not careful.

I was worried and ate less.

The little meat that was so easy to raise was gone again.

Everyone was very distressed, but it was not convenient to eat and drink on the boat, so they had to go to Yangzhou to make plans.

For this reason, Nanny Li even cooked a few medicinal meals herself. Seeing her kindness, Lin Daiyu used a few more mouthfuls.Xueyan was dumbfounded, and when she saw this, she pestered Nanny Li to learn from her.

Nanny Li smiled and said, "First tell me why you are learning this from me? I'll see if I want to teach you."

Xueyan said, "I think the girl eats the herbal food made by the nanny, it seems to be sweeter, but it's not good to bother the nanny to cook, if I learn it, I can also support the girl."

Nanny Li smiled, "Okay, then you can learn from me. After a while I will cook the soup and watch from the side. I am a little particular about the cooking time. Come to me to copy the recipe at night, and I will teach you the taboos. "

When they arrived in Yangzhou, Xueyan had already learned nearly ten kinds of medicinal food, and the food they made was quite edible.

The people of the Lin family estimated the time and had been waiting at the pier for several days. As soon as Lin Daiyu's boat arrived, a carriage from the mansion immediately picked her up.
