[Red Mansion] Married by decree

I don't know if he knew about Yunze's arrival. On the day when Yunze arrived, Lin Ruhai's spirit was doubtful.When Yunze saw Lin Ruhai, he wondered if he was really seriously ill.

Daiyu arrived at Lin Ruhai's residence early today, and for some reason she always felt a little uneasy.Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai was eating breakfast.Ever since she fell ill, Lin Ruhai's appetite has been poor.A few days ago, I couldn't eat anything at all.

Now Daiyu saw that Lin Ruhai ate deliciously.Moreover, it actually ate more than usual.It seemed that Lin Ruhai's illness was healed overnight.

"Yu'er is here, come and sit down, and have breakfast with my father."

"Father, this is you?"

"It's okay for my father."

The Lin family always eats and sleeps without talking, but today Lin Ruhai broke the rules and chatted with Daiyu at the dinner table.In fact, what Lin Ruhai said was not important, it was something that happened a long time ago.About Jia Min, about Daiyu, about myself and even about Zhao Ye.

Daiyu is young after all, so she doesn't know what this scene represents.Butler Lin is different, but what's the use of knowing, the king of Hades wants you to die in the third watch, how dare you keep him until the fifth watch.After all, this person can't beat the sky, so he can only serve him more carefully and try his best to meet Lin Ruhai's request.

"Master, the emperor's imperial envoy is here, he is the future son-in-law."

"Okay, okay, I'm content to see you once." Lin Ruhai woke up today with a premonition, seeing that the imperial envoy was not coming, she was a little anxious.Now that people are here, not only that, but also Yunze.This can be regarded as a kind of compensation for him not being able to see Daiyu get married.

"Hurry up and open the door to welcome you." Before Lin Ruhai could finish speaking, he got up and hurried out.

Since the two are not married yet, Daiyu naturally wants to avoid Yunze.Seeing Lin Ruhai go out, he went back to his courtyard.

When the gate of Xunyan Yushi's mansion opened, Yunze and his party were waiting outside.Yunze and the others are difficult to ignore, and everyone in Yangzhou City knows that Mr. Lin, the inspector of salt, is running out of time.No, they just stood there for a while, and the people who watched the excitement were already three circles in and three circles away.

When Lin Ruhai came out, the onlookers felt that the previous stories were all rumors, and Mr. Lin didn't look like he was seriously ill.Looking at it like that, it's clear that he's very energetic.

Whether it was Yunze, Lin Ruhai, or even the guards behind Yunze, they were all used to other people's gazes.Now I feel those eyes of doubt or curiosity, and those whispers, I just pretend I don’t know.

"It's not just the presence of King Anshun, Ruhai welcomes you from a distance, and if you are rude, you still look to the prince Haihan." Lin Ruhai clasped his fists and saluted as he spoke, and he did not hold himself to his elders at all because of Yunze and Daiyu's marriage.In fact, as long as it is a person who knows how to advance and retreat, this will not be the case.

"Master Yuezhang is the elder of Yunze, and it's Yunze's fault that Mr. Yuezhang went out to greet him, so why would he be impolite?"

As soon as the two of them entered the main hall, Jia Lian, who had received the letter over there, had already arrived.

"Who is this?"

"Returning to the lord, the next official is Jia Lian from the Rongguo Mansion, who is Cousin Lin's cousin. I just heard that the lord has arrived at the mansion, so I came to pay a visit." Before Lin Ruhai could speak, Jia Lian introduced himself.

"It turns out that he is the cousin of the future princess of the king. So, will the king also call you a cousin?"

"I don't dare to be an official." Jia Lian was eager to make connections, so he added that sentence when introducing: he is Cousin Lin's cousin.But I didn't want to, but it had the opposite effect.Hearing Yunze's obviously bad tone, he quickly knelt down to apologize.

"Master Lin, the inspector of salt and censor, accepts the order." Yun Ze didn't cry out, completely ignoring Jia Lian's intentions, and took out the imperial order instead.

"Sir, Lin Ruhai accepts the order."

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor ordered that Lin Ruhai be loyal to the monarch and the country... but he must not surpass his ancestors. Now Lin Ruhai is enshrined as a loyal marquis, and I respect you."

"Chen Lin Ruhai thanked the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

After Yun Ze took out the imperial decree, Jia Lian moved behind Lin Ruhai.When Lin Ruhai Xie En got up, Jia Lian didn't dare to move rashly, who knows if getting up now will offend King Anshun.

"You get up too." Yun Ze was satisfied with Jia Lian's understanding of current affairs, but also wanted to give Lin Ruhai some face, so he called out.

Lin Ruhai and Yun Ze were not familiar with each other at all, and Yun Ze also saw Lin Ruhai's state at this time, so he wanted to give Lin Ruhai some time.After announcing the imperial edict, he left the hall on the pretext of being exhausted.Over there, Butler Lin had arranged the room efficiently, and then led a group of people there.

"Nephew Lianxian, do you have anything else to do?" Looking at Jia Lian's appearance, Lin Ruhai knew what was going on, so he asked.

"Uncle Rong, Lian'er found out in the past few days that the housekeeper Lin in this house had actually sold his uncle's property behind his back. So he wanted to find an opportunity to tell uncle, but he was afraid that uncle would not believe him, so he dragged it off until now."

After hearing the imperial decree, Jia Lian didn't understand that Lin Ruhai planned to donate all his family property to the national treasury.He also knew in his heart that this time it was nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket.

Then he thought of Lin Ruhai's current state. Although he didn't know what happened, Lin Ruhai's illness was probably getting better.If you let him know about your plan, the consequences will be disastrous.Then I thought about the countermeasures, how to pick myself clean.

When Lin Ruhai asked, Jia Lian made up his mind to push Butler Lin out.With his own evidence in hand, Butler Lin is just saying one side.Even if Lin Ruhai had doubts, there was no evidence.

"I ordered Steward Lin to do this matter. If Lian'er has nothing to do, she can help Steward Lin."

"Lian'er has a foreign surname, so it's inconvenient to intervene in this matter."

"I've only had one daughter, Yu'er, in my whole life. I'm relieved to have her and her parents take care of me." Lin Ruhai said something completely irrelevant, but in fact he was beating Jia Lian.Although he was well prepared for everything, he didn't want to cause trouble for Zhao Ye and his wife.

"Lian'er believes that Cousin Lin's Yi parents will treat her cousin very well." Jia Lian is a smart person, so how could he not understand the meaning of Lin Ruhai's words.Hearing what Lin Ruhai said now, those thoughts faded away.At the same time, he was wondering why Uncle Lin seemed to be explaining the funeral after he seemed to be fine.

"I heard that brother-in-law donated a fifth-grade fellow prefect to you?"

"Exactly."

"Although this Tongzhi's official position is not high, he has real power. Eldest brother-in-law is also a capable person, Lian'er... Forget it, you go down."

"Lian'er will leave."

For Jia Min's sake, Lin Ruhai still planned to persuade Jia Lian, and he could see that the Rongguo Mansion was hopeless.But Jia She is a person who knows how to forbear and know how to advance and retreat.If there is a lineage left by the Jia family, even if he dies, he will still have the face to meet Jia Min.It's just that Jia Lian had to understand these things by himself, but what others said was not very useful, so he gave up after talking halfway.

Afterwards, Lin Ruhai asked Daiyu to be brought over again, and he still talked about some old things.I saw Lin Ruhai rambling on, as if this matter would never be finished, but it was quite different from usual.

"Yu'er, you have to take good care of yourself in the future. My father has also explained everything about the house to Steward Lin, so Yu'er doesn't have to worry. When the father is gone, Yu'er has to be sad. The father just went to see your mother and brother."

"Daddy, you're getting better now, why are you saying these unlucky things again?" Daiyu said, wanting to wipe away her tears.

"Yu'er, don't cry, Daddy doesn't say anything. Daddy is also tired and wants to rest."

"Then Daddy will rest first, and when Daddy wakes up, Yu'er will come to accompany Daddy." Daiyu called someone to wait for Lin Ruhai to sleep, but she didn't expect that Lin Ruhai never woke up again.
