Chapter 492: The Hundred-legged Insect Dies, But Doesn't Stiffen (Revision)

"Sang Qing, if you feel uncomfortable, say it." Chun Ge put his hand on Lin Xun's shoulder and patted him comfortingly. Since Lin Xiang was beheaded, Lin Xun has vaguely changed, but he has always been stuffy in his heart.

"I've been coming and going alone since I was a child, and I'm used to living without a father, and I never thought that when he really left me, I wouldn't be able to adapt to it." Lin Xun shrugged his shoulders with a particularly 'relaxed' and said nonchalantly.

Chunge's father also died after he became sensible, he never said anything sad on his lips, but his heart was bleeding, so Lin Xun's current situation, Chunge empathizes.

"You still have me." Chun Ge didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only hold Lin Xun's hand, because he didn't want to be so lonely.

"Hmm," Lin Xun replied softly.

Because Lin Xiang was executed by the emperor's own order, no one would come to mourn, and Lin Xiang's body must be buried soon, and there must be no tombstones. The only thing Chun Ge and Lin Xun can do for Lin Xiang is to put a spirit card in the room and keep a good guard at home. Lin Xun can't even put on sackcloth to cry for Lin Xiang, everything can only be done in secret. It's Lin Xiang, what a glory he is in front of him, but he can't even write a tombstone after death, which is sad and lamentable.

Soon arrived at Lin Xiang's first seven, Lin Xun didn't let Chun Ge accompany him, for fear that Chun Ge would be impeached, but how could Chun Ge leave, so there was such a scene, Lin Xun knelt inside, and Chun Ge knelt outside. Because the weather is gradually getting cooler, the next person also put a brazier in front of Chunge, who knows that Chunge simply used it to burn paper money, it really looks like whoever wants to be impeached.

Just as Chun Ge was burning paper money for Lin Xiang, a yellow satin trouser leg appeared in Chun Ge's afterglow. Without looking, Chun Ge knew that this person was Su Youjun. In today's world, there are only people who can wear bright yellow, and only Su Jianyu and Su Youjun are in Nancheng. Su Jianyu will not be condescending, it can only be Su Youjun.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in such a good mood today, come here to admire the moon." Chun singer did not stop moving, still focusing on burning paper. For some reason, he seems to be doing this job very well.

"Come and see you." Su Youjun also squatted down, picked up a handful of paper money, and burned it according to Chunge's actions.

"Look at me." Chun Ge twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Why am I, like a mourning concubine, the prince is still satisfied." ”

"Chunge, people in officialdom are always involuntarily." Su Youjun's explanations are always mixed with paleness and powerlessness.

"His Royal Highness the Prince. I advise you to save some energy. Chun Ge rubbed his kneeling numb knees, and said lightly: "Your Highness, don't trap me, I have submitted my resignation, and I will leave in a short time." Ignore the world. ”

Chun Ge Rangran didn't look at Su Youjun, but looked ahead and said, "In other words, I have no role for the prince, and the prince doesn't have to bother." ”

"Are you sure you can go?" Su Youjun grabbed one of Chunge's hands and took out Chunge's resignation from his waist. And dashingly threw into the brazier.

"It's okay, this resignation is written, and it will take some time, so it's better to hang up the crown and leave." Chunge withdrew his hand, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and wiped his hand clean in disgust. Then he was also thrown into the brazier.

"The official family, the official faction, you don't want it?" There is such a behemoth involved, Chunge still wants to get out, it's really a fool's dream.

"Everyone dies once. is Lin Xiang, who has been strong all his life, after death, isn't he still unable to take care of the Lin family and the Lin faction? Chun Ge's flat tone said shallowly: "My official Chunge, a mortal, I don't know when I will die, the official family, the official faction, if I alone decide life and death, it is better to perish earlier." ”

"You're determined to go." Su Youjun's eyes showed coldness.

"Your Highness, are you afraid that you will run out of cover?" Chun Ge finally looked at Su Youjun with playful eyes, and laughed: "With the ability of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, where you need the cover of others, self-protection is enough." ”

"You're not afraid, I'll do it to your official family." Su Youjun sneered, and finally tore his face with Chunge.

"You won't." Chun Ge raised his eyebrows and said, "Friendship is not there, business is there." ”

"As the head of the official family, as well as the people of the official faction, there must always be a backer, and you are the best choice." Chun Ge paused and added, "Without my existence, you can get more benefits in between, why not?" ”

"The only person in this world who can understand me is you, Guan Chunge." There was a little regret in Su Youjun's tone.

"No, I never knew you." Chun Ge lowered his eyes and said, "Those who understand you, one has been buried in the ground for a long time, and the other has been far away from the imperial court. Chun Ge is talking about the Lin family's father and son.

"Chunge, believe it or not." Su Youjun sighed and said: "Many things are not my intention, hurting you, let alone what I want, the days when you and I ate and lived together are the most beautiful memories of my life." With that, Su Youjun shook his sleeves and left.

Chun Ge's head was tilted back, and he didn't look at Su Youjun's back, he just smiled bitterly, how good it would be if time could stop forever at that moment, but if it changes, it changes. Just like Su Youjun, even the last sentence evokes Chunge's memories, so Chunge will compromise, of course, what the prince wants is not Chunge's compromise, but the forces left by Chunge, their compromise.

Half a month after Lin Xiang's first seven, Su Jianyu began to prepare to leave Nancheng, counting that Su Jianyu and his party stayed in the south for more than half a year, and they were busy with other things, but they forgot the original purpose. So at the beginning of November, he finally left, but unfortunately he did not leave the south, but followed the way he came, all the way through, saying that he was too anxious when he came, so he had to take a good look when he returned.

At this time, Chun Ge was already the person with the highest official position in the southern tour, and everything was taken care of by Chun Ge, although that day, Chun Ge and Su Jianyu almost had a showdown, but after a few days, they were still the kings and the ministers, and they should be more polite, as if what happened at that time had never happened at all. As for Lin Xun, although he is a civilian, to change a better word, that is, Chunge's staff, also follows Chunge's side.

"Chunge, all the way north, if I keep following, it's not appropriate." Lin Xun and Chun Ge sat together in the stern of the boat. The breeze blew on Lian Ren's cheeks, and it was so peaceful.

"If you don't want to go to the capital, when you get to Hangzhou, stay in the official's house. Or go to Lin Lao's place and wait for me to come back. Chun Ge can't leave now, and he can only officially leave when he returns to the capital and completes some deliveries.

"I traveled to the north when I was young, and I spent time in the south when I was young, but I never had the opportunity to see this famous mountain and river, and I wanted to take this opportunity to see it." Lin Xun blinked, and naturally received the hair from Chunge's sideburns behind his ears.

"Okay. There are indeed many scenic spots in the south, you can go and see them, and by the way, write down the route, and when I come back, take me there too. Chun Ge's words are said to be so. But Chunge wanted Lin Xun to take this opportunity to distract himself, maybe this would reduce the sadness in Lin Xun's heart.

At the nearest stop, Lin Xun left, Chun Ge wanted Xiao Qi to protect Lin Xun's safety, but Lin Xun said that he had his own way, and Chun Ge was not reluctant, so he could only watch Lin Xun take Lin Mu with him. The two left.

In fact, Chun Ge didn't know that Lin Xun was never sad about Lin Xiang's death, he covered it up very well, and what he hid in his heart was uneasiness, extreme uneasiness. His father. He understands that Lin Xiang is definitely not a person who accepts his fate, and such a dismal ending is not Lin Xiang's style of acting. So Lin Xun must go to Nancheng to confirm. After the beheading, the imperial court did not allow Lin Xun to identify the body. just threw Lin Xiang to a mass grave at random, but fortunately, Lin Xun remembered that place. In addition, the weather is relatively cold these days, and I think that Lin Xiang's corpse will not decay to the point that even Lin Xun can't recognize it.

In view of his current embarrassing identity, he changed his costume and entered the city, as if he was an old man, while Lin Mu played his son on the side, and the two escaped Su Jianyu's surveillance and came to the mass grave.

"Childe, do you really want to dig?" Lin Mu looked at the mound just now, his face was heavy, he must carry a lantern at night, in the mass grave, besides, what Lin Xun wants to move is Lin Xiang's grave, digging his father's grave, it will be struck by lightning.

"As the Son of Man, can I let him be buried here without a name?" Of course, Lin Xun's words were a pretext, and Lin Xun began to shovel the soil as he spoke.

"What's more, it's uncertain if it's his body?" Lin Xun believed in this idea even more.

It was about half an hour before Lin Xun and Lin Mu barely dug up the body. It's not completely rotten, but it's stinking. But Lin Xun didn't seem to smell it, and first groped behind Lin Xiang's cheeks and ears, trying to find the interface of the human skin mask. Of course, Lin Xiang's body and head had been sewn up, so Lin Xun, who didn't find any flaws on his face, directly picked up Lin Xiang's prison uniform, turned it up and down several times, and finally fell to the ground.

"No, he didn't." Lin Xun sat alone beside the corpse and muttered to himself.

"Nothing." Lin Mu was also curious, so he walked further and saw that it was Lin Xiang's waist.

"How could it not be?" Lin Mu was also curious, he remembered that Lin Xiang had a mole on his waist, but now it was gone.

"It's not him, it's not him." Lin Xun's initial conjecture was indeed correct, knowing his father Mo Ruozi, Lin Xiang was really alive.

"Childe, what should I do?" Lin Mu didn't know what to do, wasn't this Lin Xiang beheaded in public, but this corpse was another person.

"I've heard people in the house say that my father knows that he is in danger, so he has raised a stand-in in many places, but I am afraid that this person is the legendary stand-in." This kind of trick is a means of saving the lives of officials, and many powerful officials, afraid that they will be found out by the imperial court, so they privately raise a stand-in similar to themselves and die for themselves. Lin Xiang is no exception.

"The world is big, where are we going to find the master?" Lin Mu looked at the dark night sky and said helplessly.

"The fact that he was able to send the stand-in to the cell is enough to prove that there is a hidden stake for him in the southern city, and as long as you find the location of the stake, you can know his whereabouts." Lin Xun categorically didn't expect his father to have such a backhand, he just hoped that Lin Xiang would be more sensible, not to do anything regrettable, and the top priority was to find people.
