CHAPTER IX
At that time, Daiyu and Huiyu were asking Jia Min to say goodbye, because they heard that their mother was going to take the two of them to the temple to offer incense today, because they usually didn't have any playmates, and they were really excited to go out for a walk, so they got dressed early and came to their mother's room to eat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Jia Min frowned and asked, "What happened?" Spring breeze, go and see. ”
The spring breeze should be blessed, just lifted the door curtain and was about to go out, was hit by a stumbling figure, she was just about to open her mouth to scold, she found that the person who bumped into her was actually Gui Mama, Gui Mama had no calm on her face, she said in a panic: "Madam! Big things are wrong! Someone suddenly came to the yamen and said that the master was assassinated outside! ”
"What!" Jia Min stood up teng, and then covered her head and was about to fall to the ground, Xia Yu and Mama Zhang, who were next to her, hurriedly helped her, Huiyu was so frightened by this change that she began to cry, and Daiyu was so frightened that she was at a loss.
Jia Min was held up for a while before standing up straight, remembering that the life and death of the old man were uncertain, and hurriedly rushed out, but was stopped and stopped by the girls, persuaded and persuaded, but insisted on going out to see, but before he could get out of the door, he fainted directly in Mama Zhang's arms.
When Mama Gui saw this messy scene, she hurriedly scolded the little girls for helping Jia Min to bed, and asked Daiyu and Huiyu's grandmothers to carry the two little ones back to the house. also ordered Qiuhua and Dongxue to ask the big housekeeper to take people out to find the master, and the second housekeeper to ask for a doctor. People moved in a hurry, and when someone went out, they quietly exchanged eyes with Mama Gui.
......
Not long after Lin Ruhai came out of the city gate, he felt that the road was more remote, and it didn't look like he had walked before, and he just felt a little puzzled, and he was shot in the shoulder by an oncoming arrow and fell off the horse. To say that Lin Ruhai's gentleman and six arts are not bad, let alone horseback riding, but his body is not so strong due to his perennial hard study and being an official. It was easy to see what was in front of him, and found a man in black holding a sword at him, and when he saw him looking at him, a strong hatred burst out in his eyes: "Lord Lin, don't worry, I'll send your family reunion for my brothers of the White Lotus Sect!" As he spoke, he raised the sword in his hand and slashed at Lin Ruhai's neck.
Lin Ruhai's heart was like ashes, he closed his eyes, and constantly regretted his imprudentness in his heart, he had long known that there might be a follow-up to the matter of the infantry yamen that day, but he didn't expect that he had not arranged it yet, so he encountered it, and he knew that this was the case, he should... It should be... Lin Ruhai didn't wait for a fatal sword, only heard a pop in front of him. He had the courage to open his eyes and see that the man in black was already lying on the ground! Behind him was a young hunter dressed in a short beat, holding a pipe slightly longer than a flute in his hand, and he didn't know what it was for. Seeing Lin Ruhai looking at him, Orion smiled: "Lord Lin, right?" You'll have to pay me a tiger! Today's income is all gone to save you, but he didn't die, he just fell asleep. As he spoke, he kicked the man in black, indicating that there was no wound on his body, but that he had been turned over by the anesthetic.
For a while, Lin Ruhai didn't know whether he should thank this person for saving his life first, or turn around and call someone to take down the man in black, and suddenly remembered: "Oh no! Hurriedly looked at Orion, "May I ask this little brother, did you just come back from the woods?" It can be seen that there is a carriage that startles the horse? ”
The Orion thought for a moment and said, "A short distance further is the woods, and if you drive a carriage, the road is really not easy to walk, and you either have taken the wrong road, or you should have been deceived." ”
Lin Ruhai thought about it, although he was still a little uneasy in his heart, but after thinking about it, the little guy who reported the news today was really not the common one, so he decided to go home first to have a look, and it would be better to bring enough people. So he looked at the hunter who was taking out the rope and tying up the man in black, and said, "Thank you little brother for saving your life, I will bring this person back to the yamen for interrogation, I don't know if you can stay for a while, I'll go back and send someone over?" ”
The Orion looked at Lin Ruhai's body, which had already begun to gain a little fat, smiled and said, "My lord, it's not that I underestimate you, you want to go back first?" If you send someone back, I really don't know how long it will take, so I might as well take the prisoner back with you." ”
"This ......" Lin Ruhai looked at Orion, secretly measuring Orion's strength.
Orion smiled mysteriously, retreated to the woods from which he came, and out of nowhere pulled out a shelf-like shelf made of twigs, and brought back his frightened horse!
"Your lord's luck is that your horse is eating the leaves on my stretcher." After saying a word of explanation, after the hunter fixed the shelf behind the horse with a rope, he moved the man in black onto the shelf, and sat on the shelf himself, and then motioned to Lin Ruhai: "I have been making up this shelf for a long time, and I usually use this thing to drag it back after hunting tigers and wild boars, and the load is okay, but it is not very wear-resistant, but it is estimated that there is no problem in dragging people back this time." I'm not very good at horseback riding... I believe that in this way, I can go back quickly, and Lord Lin can also go home to see his family with peace of mind. ”
Lin Ruhai couldn't help but be impressed by this person, and hurriedly rode on his horse and walked back to the city quickly.
Because he suspected that this matter was related to the previous major case in Jiangnan, Lin Ruhai first sent the man in black directly to the infantry yamen, and then pulled the hunter on his horse and took the hunter home quickly. As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the front yard was in a mess, and many people ran around in a panic, so frightened that their legs were weak, but fortunately they were supported by Orion and did not sit on the ground at once. Orion saw his expression and hurriedly yelled, "What are you all doing here? What about the housekeeper? Adults talk to him back! ”
At this time, the second housekeeper ran over from behind as if he had seen a savior: "My lord! You're back! Someone in the yamen reported that you were assassinated while you were out inspecting things, and you don't know whether you were alive or dead. Mrs. was so frightened that she fainted, and the young lady and the young master were so frightened that they cried, and Mama Gui ordered the big housekeeper to take someone to look for you quickly...... Let's go to the backyard and have a look. ”
When Lin Ruhai heard that Jia Min and the children were really at home, he let go of half of his heart and hurriedly thanked Orion, planning to go to the inner courtyard to see his daughter-in-law and children first, but found that he was trembling and couldn't leave. Lin Ruhai doesn't know who set up this bureau to harm him, if he dies outside today, how should his wife and children deal with themselves?
Looking at Lin Ruhai's state, the Orion kindly reached out and grabbed it, confessed the crime, and helped Lin Ruhai to follow the second housekeeper into the door of the inner courtyard. Lin Ruhai trembled with anger, but he was worried about his wife's safety, and hurriedly motioned to Orion to help him to the main room.
As he walked on the road, the Orion asked quietly, "Lord Lin still brought others with him when he had an accident today?" Orion means that if you take someone with you, but leave you and run away at the moment of your life and death, you must be a traitor, if not, then how did the family know about your assassination? There must be something wrong with the person who reported it. Lin Ruhai understood his subtext, and it was unexpectedly that a hunter would be so quick to think, thinking that there would be a mole at home, it was heartbreaking, Lin Ruhai gritted his teeth and said: "I will send someone to investigate this matter!" Orion pursed his lips and smiled: "It is recommended that adults still use their own old people in Suzhou", looking at Lin Ruhai's surprised eyes, he smiled calmly and said, "Don't you think that your Lin family has no relatives to deal with?" I've been here before, but if it weren't for this incident, I might never have had the chance to set foot in your door! ”
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he couldn't help but feel a scorn on his face, thinking that after coming to Yangzhou, he was busy with salt politics every day, and he didn't have time to contact his former relatives and friends, but every year he also looked at the account books, and the annual festival expenditure was not less, if his relatives and friends all broke off contact, it meant that the festival gifts were only given to the four major families! Rongguo Mansion is really deceitful! The more Lin Ruhai thought about it, the more angry he became, originally he knew that his mother and Jia Min had a bad relationship, thinking that he spoiled Jia Min too much, after his mother passed away, for the sake of family harmony, Jia Min did not add more beaks to the disposal of the old man of the Lin family, and now it seems that Jia Min's housekeeper talent is absolutely not good! Thinking of this, he suddenly thought that he had never interfered in the upbringing of his son and daughter, and he didn't know ...... Lin Ruhai was suddenly anxious, and wanted to speed up his pace and walk towards the main room.
When he arrived at the main room, it was quiet, Lin Ruhai felt a sigh in his heart, and he didn't know where he got a handful of strength, and suddenly broke free from the hunter and walked in. Soon a woman's cry came from inside, it seemed that Lin Ruhai was fine, and Jia Min was fine.
Orion felt that it was not good to stay any longer, so he asked the second housekeeper about the way out of the inner courtyard, and hurriedly confessed and said that he would wait for them. As soon as he walked to the second door, he suddenly saw a figure hurriedly walking by......
Let's say that Lin Ruhai came to the main room and found that Mama Gui, Mama Zhang and a few girls were surrounding Jia Min, who had fainted on the bed, and when she saw Lin Ruhai coming in, she shouted in surprise: "Madam, the master is here, the master is fine!"
Jia Min just woke up, and couldn't help but be excited when he saw Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai took a step forward to hold her hand, and comforted her repeatedly, Jia Min cried while holding Lin Ruhai's shirt tightly, and finally stopped crying under the persuasion of his subordinates, and opened his mouth to say: "Master, what happened to you?" Why did the next person say that you were assassinated? If something happens to you, I won't survive! ”
Lin Ruhai comforted him for a while, suddenly remembered something, glanced around, and asked Jia Min: "The outer courtyard said that Daiyu and Hui'er were so scared that they cried, why didn't they see the two of them?"
