Lin Zhixuan and Wei Mingxu discussed tomorrow's arrangements, and everything was decided, so Qiu Ju came to persuade him to go to bed.

Lin Zhixuan nodded, seeing that it was really not early, before she said, "The prince will sleep for a while." ”

Then he instructed Qiu Ju to clean up two futons on the ground for himself and sleep with her.

Qiu Ju hurriedly said, "How can the girl sleep on the ground?"

Wei Mingxu was silent for a moment and said, "The sky is cloudy and rainy, and the ground is very damp, you can sleep on the bed." ”

Lin Zhixuan said: "Because the ground is very damp, the prince is injured again, and he can't sleep." ”

The corners of Wei Mingxu's lips hooked up a faint smile: "I am a military person, I have been fighting abroad all the year round, and I have slept in the yellow sand and snow, and I am not more delicate than you women." ”

Lin Zhixuan still wanted to quit again, but seeing that he had already made up his mind, he couldn't make any more money, so he had to tell Qiu Ju to put a few more quilts on Wei Mingxu, and was afraid that he would be hot, so he ordered to lay out the bamboo and jade mat again, and was afraid that he would not be able to stand the cold because of his injuries, so he spread a thin blanket on it.

Wei Mingxu watched the little girl order one by one, so careful, but more considerate and thoughtful than the wives and concubines in his house.

When the two of them finally lay down.

The wind and rain outside the window had stopped, and the eaves were ticking on the stone steps, but Lin Zhixuan couldn't fall asleep.

After all, he is a prince, and he is just the daughter of a small Jeju prefect. Now he is at ease, but he lets him lay the floor.

Qiu Ju tucked up the veil tent for Lin Zhixuan, Lin Zhixuan couldn't see his sleeping appearance, but he could smell his breathing in the room.

After all, it was he who calculated him.

But the Lin family can't take any risks now.

If he is entangled in this matter, once the emperor moves his mind to destroy the Lin family, Lin Penghai is now in Jeju for disaster relief, and the plague is rampant, it is worth making a fuss.

Besides, there's that thing.

Lin Zhixuan slowly opened her eyes and looked at the bed curtain swaying in the breeze.

Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather Lin Youtang used to be the prime minister above 10,000 people under one person, at that time, the emperor was cowardly and incompetent, and the country's military, political, money and food were almost in the hands of his grandfather.

However, that was the matter of the previous dynasty.

The Lin family is loyal and patriotic, full of loyalty, but the allegiance is to Zhu Yue, the last emperor of the previous dynasty.

The minister is strong and the lord is weak, Zhu Yue is addicted to wine and meat, although he has no ability to govern the country, he can't look down on Lin Youtang to become bigger, and he is willing to be a puppet emperor, and his dependence on Lin Youtang has gradually become a taboo.

At that time, Emperor Taizu Wei Zhaoye bought off Zhu Yue's cronies in the palace, sowing discord, and playing Zhu Pi blindly against Lin Youtang, resulting in chaos in the country.

Later, Emperor Taizu raised troops to the east, and Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather Lin Fangzhi led his troops to the expedition, and forced Emperor Taizu's army back for 500 miles three times. However, due to the civil strife between the DPRK and China, there was a shortage of food and grass, and he died on the battlefield.

Emperor Zhu Yuena is like a child's play, and it's time to change the dynasty. Even how many loyal people in the court supported Lin Youtang to establish himself as the king in order to defend the country.

Lin Youtang was loyal to the previous dynasty and was unmoved, but instead killed the ministers who supported him, and said that he would not be allowed to make such rebellious words again.

But at that time, the words of everyone supporting Lin Youtang had already reached Zhu Yue's ears, and Zhu Yue ordered to kill Lin Youtang, who was plotting rebellion, although no one dared to do it, but after all, the whole country was in chaos.

Later, Emperor Taizu led his army into the customs and established a new dynasty.

Gaozu persuaded him to surrender, and the captured Lin Youtang committed suicide in the name of protecting his loyalty, and left his last words to ask the Lin clan not to surrender.

But at that time, the eldest son of the Lin family, that is, Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather, died in battle, and the rest of the Lin family had many people who were greedy for life and afraid of death, either for the lure of a high-ranking official of the new dynasty, or because of the resentment of Emperor Zhu Yue of the previous dynasty for killing his father and brother, they actually defected to the new dynasty one after another, or were killed because they resisted death.

Because of the Lin family's surrender and the remarks that "the old will perish, the new will prosper", the high-ranking officials who were originally under the command of the Lin family or admired the Lin family surrendered one after another.

The eldest grandson of the Lin family, Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather, inherited the legacy of his father and grandfather, refused to be a lackey of the new dynasty, left the Lin family alone, fled to Jeju, Shandong, bowed his head to farming, did not engage in politics, did not become an official, and swore not to be loyal to the new dynasty.

After the new dynasty stabilized the hearts of the people in the world by taking advantage of the Lin family's strength, Emperor Taizu naturally would not allow the Lin family to continue to grow, abolish the prime minister system, set up a cabinet to divide power, and gradually began to suppress the Lin family and take back power.

Each branch of the Lin family has died, leaving only one of the four rooms loyal to Emperor Taizu, willing to follow to the death, and asked Emperor Taizu to change his surname and give his name, from then on only know the new dynasty, and no longer know the Lin family.

This behavior was quite pleasing to Emperor Taizu, so he went to the surname Zhongyimu and changed his surname to Mu.

The four-room master of the Houlin family asked Emperor Taizu to add three more points of water to the surname "Mu", so as to show the honor of being given the surname by the emperor, and the descendants of later generations will share the grace of Emperor Taizu.

It is the origin of the Mu family, the first assistant of the current cabinet.

Although Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather did not change his surname and name, because of the endless war at that time, the people were displaced, Jeju was poor and dilapidated, and there were poor refugees from all over the country. No one knew the identity of his eldest grandson of the Lin family, and he escaped.

Later, Lin Zhixuan's great-grandfather Lin Jinyu married in Jeju and gave birth to Lin Zhixuan's grandfather Lin Yin. Lin Yin is not a person who is willing to bow down to farming like his father, he has the Lin family's people to learn, and he has been clever and studious since he was a child, although Lin Jinyu does not allow him to read and write.

Lin Yin only regarded his father as a rough and shallow farmer, Lin Jinyu beat him and scolded him, but he always refuted that he didn't want to plant the land for a lifetime, and only studying and taking the imperial examination was the way out.

In the end, he was admitted to Xiucai with Lin Jinyu behind his back, and then Lin Jinyu knew that things were out of control, so he told Lin Yin about the Lin family in the previous dynasty, and he was not allowed to continue to take the exam, let alone go out.

When Lin Yin learned about the family, he was greatly shocked and stopped his career in the imperial examination.

Until the death of her great-grandfather Lin Jinyu, Lin Zhixuan's father, Lin Penghai, and the two brothers grew up, Lin Yin looked at his sons as diligent and studious as he was when he was young.

And looking at that time, the new dynasty had already been stable, prosperous, and thriving, and what was the point of guarding the old things of the previous dynasty and not allowing the descendants of future generations to revitalize? Looking at the Mu family at that time, although it was not the same as the Lin family of the previous dynasty, it was still 10,000 times better than their farming in this small mountain village.

Lin Yin decided to hide the old affairs of the previous dynasty, and never mentioned it to Lin Penghai and Lin Zehai brothers. Wholeheartedly support the two sons to study and practice martial arts, and revitalize the lintel.

Lin Zhixuan's grandfather is also very human, and the friends he made when he was young also had a lot of status when Lin Penghai joined the company, and he could help a little bit.

At that time, not long after the founding of the new dynasty, the rectification of the rule of officials, the transfer of officialdom in various places, and the dissolution and reorganization of the previous relationship network, it was the time to be able to stand firm and climb up, so Lin Penghai and Lin Zehai, although they did not have much family and money support, they also climbed to such a position with their ability.
