Chapter Fifty-Six: Inexplicable Respect
Lin Congjun felt all the way that the God of War King was the first to invite himself to dinner after coming to Kyushu City, and let Lin Shushu be his deputy, which was to give himself a big face, and it was also an affirmation of his 20 years of conscientious work in the three eastern provinces.
But it wasn't until his Mercedes-Benz S600 with a special license plate drove directly into the palace of the God of War and saw the white figure standing quietly in the cold wind with his back to the black dragon, that he suddenly realized that the face that the new prince gave him was much bigger than he imagined.
Lin Shushu's head was also dizzy, his face was confused and dazed, and it was not an exaggeration to even describe him as flattered, whether it was him or his father, the father and son both understood the status of the Northeast Lin family in the northern royal family.
To be exact, they are members of the royal family, but they are not insiders of the royal family.
Now when it comes to the word royal family, people only think of the Wang family, but in fact, the Xia family and the Huangfu family are also an important part of this transcendent force, but if you really talk about the core, the royal family deserves it, followed by the Xia family and the Huangfu family who really advance and retreat together with the Wang family, this is no longer as simple as allies, it is not an exaggeration to say that relatives, these two families, and the emperor can be said to be a real family, and they are also the first sequence of the recent Wang family outside the core of the royal family.
In addition to the first sequence, the second sequence is the Chen family and the Ye family of the empire, and the relationship between these two families and the emperor is no less than the two families in the first sequence, but because they themselves are military and political tycoons, and after integrating into the royal family, they are an important support point for the entire big faction, so many times they have to take into account the overall situation when considering problems, and it is difficult to advance and retreat together with the royal family 100%, so from the perspective of interests, it is slightly farther away.
There is only one in the third sequence, and that is the Northeast Lin family.
This is an underworld tycoon that rises completely by the power of the royal family, belonging to the descendant of the lineage, and can even be said to be a vassal of the Wang family, and his relationship with the emperor is much closer than that of the Sun family in the fourth sequence.
The Sun family and the Xie family are partners who are completely closely linked to the interests of the imperial family, and the heads of the family, Sun Yingxu and Xie Fengtao, were friends of the emperor when they were young, and in the fourth sequence, these two families are representatives, and the Kyushu Chenglin family, which is now in the limelight, is also in this ranks.
What is the God of War King?
At the top of the power pyramid of the imperial family, one of the veritable three giants of the royal family, his age is the same as Lin Shushu and other young people, but if it is really about identity, Kyushu City, and even the Shenzhou Empire can let him come down to greet him in person, and he can count it with both hands.
Li Donglei, the former prime minister of the empire, is counted as one.
Chen Zhengxian, who was in charge of the work of the military department 20 years ago, and Chen Lao is also counted as one.
The old man of the Ye family, who once vowed not to go to Kunlun for the rest of his life, would be counted as one if he came.
Count it, no matter how you count it, you can't count him Lin Congjun.
What is the new prince going to do?
The pitch-black Mercedes slowly stopped.
The God of War King, dressed in white and wearing a mask, took a few quick steps forward and stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to help Lin Congjun pull the car door.
Lin Congjun, who was a little suspicious outside the gods, suddenly reacted, no matter how heroic he was, he didn't have the courage to let the prince help him open the door, smiled bitterly, and hurriedly pushed the car door by himself before the God of War King approached, stretched out his hands, and said with a smile: "The prince came to greet him in person, I really didn't dare to take it, I knew that if I had known this, I would not have made the prince wait for a long time if I came out in advance." ”
Lin Xiaocao also stretched out his hands to shake Lin Congjun, the golden mask covered most of his face, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was extremely sincere: "I just arrived for a while, Uncle Lin, I am about the same age as calligraphy and painting, if you don't mind, just call me Xuanyuan, Xiaolin is okay, whatever you like, the prince and the prince, I am not used to listening to it." ”
“”
Uncle Lin?
Lin Congjun's face stiffened for a moment, and his laughter was maintained because of inertia, but it was extremely difficult and dry.
Lin Shushu stood in place, directly stunned.
He had a really good impression of the new prince of the royal family, and in front of his friends, he even said the bloody evaluation that the prince likes to talk and laugh and talk very well, and naturally, it is enough to see his super high recognition of the God of War King, but he never imagined that the prince took the initiative to lower a generation when he saw his father.
Originally, in his heart, he called the God of War King Brother Lin, and the prince called his father Mr. Lin or Lao Lin, each with his own hand, this is a normal thing, but Uncle Lin completely shattered Lin Shushu's idea that he took it for granted, making both father and son a little overwhelmed.
First, after coming to Kyushu City, he was the first to invite them to the palace for dinner.
Then there is the personal greeting, personally walking over to help open the door.
and today's Uncle Lin.
Where did this inexplicable respect and respect come from?
"Ringo, this"
Lin Shushu subconsciously opened his mouth and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
"Why, if you can call me Brother Lin, you won't allow me to call your dad Uncle Lin?"
Lin Xiaocao smiled, stretched out his hand, glanced at Lin Congjun, whose expression was a little stiff, and said, "Uncle Lin, let's go up first, it's going to change." ”
"Yes, yes, go up first. ”
Lin Congjun breathed a sigh of relief, he really couldn't stand this kind of treatment that was obviously not in line with his own identity for a while, he used to have a good relationship with the king side by side, Wang Fuyu would not call him uncle, let alone give him the car door, nor would he come down to greet him, as a subordinate, Lin Congjun has always known how to put on a correct posture, so the two sides have always been very happy to get along, and now he suddenly feels that the God of War King has unimaginable enthusiasm and respect for himself, Lin Congjun can barely cope with it on the surface, but there is an embarrassment in his heart that he can't find his position, and it is extremely uncomfortable.
The three of them entered the elevator and quickly went up, everything on the ground gradually shrinking.
"Today is Jinxiu's own cooking, Uncle Lin tastes her craftsmanship, if it suits the taste, I will come often in the future, I am always welcome here." ”
Lin Xiaocao took out a cigarette and handed it to Lin Congjun and Lin Shushu, originally wanting to help him light it, but seeing the confused look behind the smile of the middle-aged man who was dominating the northeast, he hesitated, sighed secretly, and gave up.
"Little sister cooking?"
Lin Shushu smiled, took the cigarette, took out a lighter and lit it for Lin Xiaocao and his own Lao Tzu, took a deep breath and said: "I used to hear that people praised the little sister so much, and my ears were calloused, but I really haven't heard of her cooking skills. ”
"She's a good cook, but she doesn't do it herself, but the food she makes doesn't taste bad. ”
Lin Xiaocao's eyes were gentle, mentioning Wang Jinxiu, his tone was extremely warm, His Royal Highness the princess, who was high in the eyes of outsiders, he really couldn't find any fault, inside and outside the room, on the bed and under the bed, the performance was perfect, whatever he wanted, needed, Wang Jinxiu would do his best to help him do it.
Lin Xiaocao had thought countless times that in the early summer three years ago, the moment he pushed her to the ground, the fate between the two had disappeared, but now, three years later, in an environment that can't be said to be a mistake or a matter of course, she once again squeezed into her life softly and stubbornly, she can think of everything she thinks, she can think of what she can't think of, she can also think of such a woman, Lin Xiaocao really can't find a reason not to cherish it.
"I don't dare to come over when the prince says this, every time I have to cook for the princess herself, if it is passed out, the outside may not know what to say about me. ”
Lin Congjun laughed, leaned on the elevator, took a big puff of cigarette, and narrowed his eyes.
The elevator went all the way up, the scenery below became more and more small, the night fell, through the transparent scales of the black dragon, everything around became shadowy, only the lights outside the palace were endless, looking down at the height that could already overlook Kyushu City, the imperial capital in the night was prosperous and prosperous.
The elevator finally stopped at the entrance of the Temple of War on the top floor.
Wang Jinxiu, who was dressed innocently and completely showed the youthful vitality of a girl, stood at the door, looked at the three men who came out of the elevator, and smiled: "Uncle Lin, welcome." ”
Xiaohua, who was brought up by Wang Jianghu yesterday, stood quietly beside Wang Jinxiu, looking at Lin Congjun, who was relatively unfamiliar to him, with a peaceful and majestic gaze, which can be regarded as a real tiger's eye.
"This is"
Lin Congjun was startled the moment he saw Xiaohua, and stood up reflexively, which is a reaction for anyone who sees a huge and majestic tiger staring at him.
"Yo, Xiaohua, little sister, why did you bring it here? Did you plan to use local materials when you did the experiment?"
Lin Shushu was stunned for a moment, looked at the little flower beside Wang Jinxiu and laughed, and explained to Lin Congjun: "Dad, this is the little sister's favorite pet, the Siberian tiger, known as the Siberian tiger in the empire, when he was in the royal family, this guy had his own hunting territory, and it was very wild, but now it seems that the little sister obviously intends to keep it as a big cat." ”
"Like to raise tigers?"
Lin Congjun couldn't cry or laugh: "Her Royal Highness the princess's hobby is really peculiar. ”
"Raising and playing, the tiger is a treasure all over its body, and I also need a small part of tiger blood for many experiments, so I brought it, and there are two more in the royal family, hmph, when I am not happy one day, I will kill it and stew a pot of tiger whip soup, and Uncle Lin must come to cheer at that time." ”
Wang Jinxiu smiled and raised her delicate little fist and smashed it on Xiaohua's head.
Xiaohua's huge body trembled slightly, shook her head and lay down, quietly, even more well-behaved than a pet cat.
Lin Congjun turned sideways and walked around Xiaohua, couldn't help but turn his head again, looked at the huge pet that was dragged in by Lin Xiaocao's tail, and said with a smile: "When I was a child, I often played a card game called Elephant Lion, Tiger and Leopard, and I was always curious at that time, which one is more powerful, and I have seen the lion and the tiger twice over the years, but the scene is too chaotic, and there are winners and losers of each other, and I have never gotten a definite answer, Her Royal Highness the princess is an expert in biology, can you give me an answer?"
Wang Jinxiu chuckled, her big eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, but she didn't speak, but glanced at Lin Xiaocao.
"There is no comparison at all, social animals against solitary animals, basically no chance of winning, especially Siberian tigers, regardless of size, weight, or predation skills, are not African lions can be compared, if you fight alone, female lions can barely play with Siberian tigers, male words are simply one-sided, of course, if a group of lions against a Siberian tiger, it is a different situation. A few years ago, I saw a lot of lion and tiger battles in Egypt, Rome, Moscow, and Tokyo, and I have never seen a lion win. ”
Lin Xiaocao smiled and led a few people up to the second floor, sat down in the restaurant, patted Wang Jinxiu and said, "Go get wine, Uncle Lin, Moutai or Wuliangye?"
"Moutai. ”
Lin Congjun smiled, but his heart moved, just a simple and completely unintentional question, but he could already see a little bit of this prince's character.
That's strength.
Moutai is still Wuliangye, although this prince gave him a choice, but the scope is not large, it can be seen that although this person looks very modest, but when he really encounters things, he will definitely be tough to the end, and even his current modesty is just because of the preferential treatment he showed to himself for inexplicable reasons, whether others have this treatment, Lin Congjun is not sure in his heart.
This is a completely instinctive or subconscious character, the person concerned may not feel anything, but it is enough for Lin Congjun, as a bystander, to draw a definite conclusion.
Wang Jinxiu smiled and went to get the wine, Lin Xiaocao stood up and walked into the kitchen, and brought out the dishes cooked by Her Royal Highness the princess herself one by one and put them on the table.
Six dishes and one soup.
Lin Xiaocao and Lin Shushu finished twice.
The meal can be said to completely take care of Lin Congjun's taste, all the Northeast cuisine, very homely, full of color, flavor and flavor, Lin Congjun sniffed deeply, his eyes suddenly lit up, and said with a smile: "The prince also likes to eat Northeast food?"
"I've never been a picky eater, I only care about food energy, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas taste in my mouth, and it tastes the same as the most ordinary braised pork, so no matter what it is, it can be stored in the stomach and can afford to consume. ”
Energy, storage, consumption.
Lin Xiaocao's words were said with a smile very easily, but anyone could hear a different meaning in this sentence.
Everyone regarded him as the high God of War King.
But in the heart of the God of War King himself, what is himself?
What is the concept of food, clothing, housing and transportation in his heart?
Clothes are only used to cover the body, and they don't care whether they are good or bad.
Eating is not enjoyment, but subconsciously treating one's body as a machine, eating food with a lot of calories and fat, and then storing it for the body to consume.
Stay, the palace villa apartment bungalow also doesn't matter, there is a bed to sleep on.
Traveling does not mean luxury cars, yachts, private jets, two legs, you can go wherever you want.
This is the unattainable and powerful God of War King, he holds great power, but in his bones, he is still a killer wandering in the dark world, always awake, always on guard, everything is for survival.
How many of these characters make people look sad but feel leisurely and complacent?
"Lord, why don't you drink? Wouldn't it be good to eat and eat and chat?"
Lin Congjun suddenly said that the news that the God of War King rarely even never drank alcohol was spread from Wang Bolong, so thinking of the other party's instinct to remain awake at any time, he subconsciously spoke.
"That's not going to work. ”
Lin Xiaocao laughed, and the corners of his mouth raised under the mask were unusually hearty and sincere: "If I let others know that Uncle Lin is here, I can't even drink alcohol, how many people will scold me for being stingy?" I rarely touch alcohol, because I drink too much of this thing, and my hands will tremble, but I don't drink badly, it's okay to drink once in a while, accompany Uncle Lin to have fun tonight." ”
"I'll also have two drinks with Uncle Lin. ”
Wang Jinxiu took two bottles of the best Moutai and put them on the table, sat down next to Lin Xiaocao and smiled.
"Little Senior Sister is really getting more and more virtuous. ”
Lin Shushu couldn't help but speak, took the initiative to open the wine, and said with a smile: "Fifty-year-old Guojiao Moutai, the real state banquet specifications, when several giants entertained VIPs in Yinlonghai, a state banquet would only open a few bottles, right? ”
"If you like it, move away, my little sister and I don't usually drink these, she will drink a small glass of red wine every day before going to bed, beauty and beauty, no one touches the white, and I will ask someone to move the Moutai in the cellar to you in a while." ”
Lin Xiaocao laughed, his interest became more and more high, he rarely had such a happy time, in his heart, except for the family of three on Kunlun Mountain, the only relatives he recognized were not the so-called emerging wealthy family of the Lin family in Kyushu City, but Lin Congjun's uncle, the man who could break with the family and flee to the Northeast for his mother.
So every time he saw him, Lin Xiaocao would be extremely excited, and even a little unable to control his emotions, he couldn't express his respect and gratitude to this uncle, but he was now the God of War King, as long as Lin Congjun spoke, as long as he had, he would not hesitate to send it out.
"It's too expensive. ”
Lin Congjun was silent for a while, glanced at Lin Xiaocao thoughtfully, and his tone was serious, fifty years of Guojiao Moutai, every bottle that has been circulated can be fried at a sky-high price, but this thing is absolutely not lacking in the God of War Palace, and it is enough for the four members of the Standing Committee of the Decision-making Bureau to give a part of the share allocated every year to the God of War Palace, but there is no shortage here, it does not mean that it is worthless in the outside world, even if it is the governor of a province, the number of times it has been drunk is limited, for people who love wine, the temptation of this good wine is simply fatal.
Lin Xiaocao was stunned, looked at Lin Congjun, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Wang Jinxiu secretly pinched Lin Xiaocao lightly under the table, as if to blame him for being too eager, smiled, and just wanted to open his mouth to play a round, Lin Congjun had already continued: "This is a big gift, Lord Wang, if you really want to accept it, I really don't know the bottom in my heart, so how much do you have?"
"It's okay, Regulus"
Wang Jinxiu's natural interface, he suddenly reacted halfway through the words, Lin Congjun didn't accept this, just now it was just a pretense to excuse two sentences, and he didn't even wait for his side to be polite, so he directly re-said.
Treacherous! hypocrisy! Old fox!
Wang Jinxiu wrinkled her nose, her little face was flushed, and she stared at Lin Congjun in a daze, without saying a word.
"There are always more than ten boxes, right? Uncle Lin will take them all away in a while, come, I will toast you." Respect you for the glorious years of the Northeast for twenty years. ”
Lin Xiaocao quietly patted Wang Jinxiu's upright buttocks, picked up the wine glass in front of him, stood up and smiled.
Lin Congjun and Lin Shushu hurriedly got up and accompanied Lin Xiaocao to drink it all, only Wang Jinxiu took a sip, and the small half cup was lowered, and the pink face that could be broken became more and more ruddy and attractive.
"The second cup, respect Uncle Lin's heroic spirit and man's blood, Kyushu City, Shenzhou Empire, there are not many people I respect, but Uncle Lin is definitely one, some men, even if they have knelt once, they are still worthy of standing up to the sky!
Lin Xiaocao didn't sit down, poured a second glass of wine, and raised his glass again.
"The third cup, I wish Uncle Lin good health, I wish the Northeast Lin family more prosperous in the past, and I also wish Uncle Lin a successful revenge as soon as possible!"
Lin Xiaocao poured a full third cup again and drank it all.
The second bottle of Moutai has bottomed out.
A cup is nearly three taels, and before a bite of the dish has been eaten, each of the three men is close to a pound of liquor.
"I'll go get the wine again. ”
Wang Jinxiu stood up and said with a smile, Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had also drunk a glass with the three of them, had a ruddy face, as delicate as a luxurious peony, with a beautiful body and a fragrant fragrance.
"Come, let's eat. ”
Wang Jinxiu nodded, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the Northeast Peel and put it in his mouth, which was tender and refreshing.
"The little princess is a great cook, which I really didn't expect. ”
Lin Congjun nodded with a smile, he drank on his face, and he drank too hard at the beginning, his face was already red at this time, but his eyes became more and more sober, and nearly a pound of white wine went down, and his tone of speech was not so restrained, and he gradually let go a lot.
"So in the future, if Uncle Lin wants to come to eat again, I am always welcome, and you don't have to worry about Jinxiu's cooking skills being too bad to come. ”
Lin Xiaocao handed a cigarette to the father and son in front of him again, and the cigarette case and lighter were still on the table, and a faint smoke immediately rose in the restaurant.
"How can I stay in Kyushu City all the time, after a while, when the situation in the imperial capital is clear, I should go back to the Northeast, that is my territory, welcome the prince to go to the Northeast when he is free, and he will definitely not disappoint the prince." ”
Lin Congjun smiled, focusing on dealing with pork vermicelli and chicken stewed mushrooms in front of him.
"Is it just the Northeast? Uncle Lin, the situation is not the same as before. ”
Lin Xiaocao glanced at Lin Congjun meaningfully.
Lin Congjun's spirit was shocked, he has been since he came, and now he wants to say it seriously?
Even Lin Shushu, who was already a little dizzy, pricked up his ears all of a sudden.
"What do you mean?"
Lin Congjun asked intently, his tone was serious, but there was a flame of excitement in his eyes.
"It's time to move, except for the three eastern provinces, the north is not very calm, since they are ready to move, why can't we strike first? Offense is the most perfect defense, and what I hate the most is to deal with it passively. ”
Lin Xiaocao chuckled.
"I support Regulus's opinion, which is very similar to what my father has always advocated, they are the most aggressive men, they disdain to defend and defend, and when they gain a foothold in one place, they must take the initiative, anyway, they are hostile, and there is nothing polite to be polite. ”
Wang Jinxiu grabbed two bottles of Moutai again and walked over and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "Uncle Lin, just these two bottles, I will let you move all the Moutai to the car." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness the Princess. ”
Lin Congzheng nodded with a smile, looked at the little couple sitting in front of him, hesitated, and said softly: "What the prince and princess said just now is what Your Majesty meant?"
