On this day, Liu Xianglian sailed back. Because it was the first trip to the dart, Jia Siqin led the little ones to the dock to greet them, and Jia Cong and Mi'er naturally followed. The boats on the vast water are almost the same, and I don't know where to look, Jia Cong seems to have returned to his previous life and waited for the bus in college: come to one, not to wait for yourself; Another one, not yet...... After waiting for most of the day, Mi'er shouted first: "Second Brother Liu is there!" Everyone hurriedly looked up, a sailboat gradually docked in the harbor, and there was a person standing at the bow of the boat, wearing a purple robe, with his hands held high, majestic and heroic, not Liu Xianglian but which one?

Jia Cong hurriedly jumped forward and waved his two paws: "Second Brother Liu! Look here, look here~~"

Liu Xianglian was also happy to see him, and because of her reserved temperament, she only nodded.

After a while, the boat docked, and Jia Cong happily rushed to the deck first: "Oh~~ What a big ship!" What a handsome second brother Liu! ”

Liu Xianglian couldn't help laughing: "You slow down, don't fall." ”

Jia Cong got up for a while, shook his head with his little arm behind his back and roared twice: "Take the boat and Yu Shangyuan, Qi Wubang to defeat the tide." The boat is tolerant but not entered, flooded back into the water and doubtful. ”

Liu Xianglian hurriedly waved her hand: "Let's go, let's go, don't say Shiyun in front of me, I have a headache." "Because he beckoned the people to carry things and get off the boat. Jia Cong hurriedly pulled his sleeve and asked if he had bought anything fun, but Liu Xianglian only pushed it. How can Jia Cong believe it? chirped all the way to the shore.

Suddenly, a voice next to me asked, "Aren't you still reciting the Book of Songs?" Will it be a resign? ”

Jia Cong was stunned. These two sentences of Chu Ci were memorized in high school in my previous life, because the Education Bureau required me to memorize them, and I also remembered a few sentences at this time, but I said casually: "I remember it when I hear someone say it, just a few sentences." ”

Turning his head, he saw an extremely elegant old man standing beside him with a smile, and said, "It's smart." ”

His mind turned very fast, and when he understood who this old man was, he hurriedly straightened his chest, but said in his mouth: "I was already smart, but it's a pity that no one is perfect, and my temperament is a little anxious." "As long as he thinks of his words that he can never practice well, he feels empty.

Liu Xianglian stroked his head funny: "That's it, Mo Riri put this on his lips, can you tell the world about this without practicing calligraphy?" ”

Jia Cong pouted and argued: "It's just that the progress is slower, it's much better than the old year......

Liu Xianglian smiled at the old man: "Look, it's such a naughty one." ”

Jia Cong grimaced.

The old man asked, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Jia Cong thought to himself, old men like to ask such questions, so he tilted his head and said, "I can guess roughly." How do ordinary people know that I am still reciting the Book of Songs? Except for Uncle Lin. Uncle Lin also wrote that he was coming to Beijing. ”

The old man nodded again and again: "Sure enough, he is very smart." ”

Jia Cong cheered and immediately bowed to him: "Hello Uncle Lin!" ”

Lin Haixiao helped him up, looked at him carefully for a long time, and saw that he looked chubby like a New Year's doll, wearing only a goose-yellow homely jacket, no gold and jade accessories on his body, only a plain purse, and couldn't help but nod.

Jia Cong couldn't hide something in his heart, so he hurriedly said: "Uncle Lin, there is a Mr. Zhang Youshi, who is very good at medical science, and recently he has been conditioning my father for a while, and my father is much tougher now. Fortunately, he is still in the capital, so you can let him take a look? ”

Lin Hai was stunned. In the past two years, he really felt that there was something wrong with his body, because he was busy with official business, he couldn't take care of recuperation, and Daiyu seemed to be doing quite well in Jiafu, and he had no worries to repay Jun's kindness.

A few days ago, I got a letter from Daiyu, detailing the childish son in front of him and saying "virtuous and virtuous", Daiyu thought about "fortunately having a father, tactful reverie, very lucky", and described it simply. Lin Hai sighed deeply that this son knew the world so much at such a young age, and suddenly realized. No matter how the grandfather's family takes care of it, the only person the daughter can rely on in the future is herself, which is a big mistake in the past. Then he immediately asked Gusu to hold his pulse and look at it, and sure enough, he said that he was overworked and tired, and he was ordered to concentrate on maintenance, otherwise his life would be short. Because of repeated thoughts, he wrote to the court to beg for bones.

Later, he received a letter from Daiyu, mentioning that the Xue family, a relative of Rongguo Mansion, the daughter of the Xue family lost her brother because of her father, even though she had a lot of money up and down, her character was square and open-minded, but she was still criticized by a group of villains for gossip such as "relatives' house" and "eating rice". In fact, these words were told to her by Wang Xifeng's sincerity, and she was very emotional when she occasionally heard it, begging her father to take care of her daughter for the sake of her daughter's support. Lin Hai had another epiphany. thought that the Xue family was originally a very close relative of Rongguo Mansion, and they had quite a lot of family resources, so it was so difficult to rely on their family; Once she has a mistake, her daughter may not even be as good as the daughter of the Xue family.

Not long after, he received a quick horse from the saint to refute his folds and appease him repeatedly. After being busy with official business, he wrote again to prepare that he was afraid of becoming ill from overwork, and asked him to resign from the post of Yangzhou Salt Patrol Imperial History. After waiting for some time, he finally looked forward to the court documents and ordered him to go to Beijing to report on his work. Lin Hai was overjoyed, and he hurriedly packed up the boat and headed north.

There's nothing going on. One day, in a small port to rest, suddenly someone came to report, the Beijing Taiping Dart Bureau has a willow dart head to see, quite strange.

It turned out that Liu Xianglian was also mooring here, landing on the shore to hang out, and occasionally saw his servants buying things and being coaxed, and spoke out to uphold justice. The peddler was annoyed and wanted to swing his fist. Where is he Liu Xianglian's opponent, but he was kicked to the ground with one move. The servant was grateful, and took the name of the Lord's house. Liu Xianglian is quite familiar with the Jia family, and often hears Jia Cong admire Uncle Lin's talent and learning, and he comes to visit him regardless of his precaution.

Lin Hai hurriedly thanked him for his help, and saw that he was young and heroic, straightforward, and not inferior in knowledge, and liked him quite much. Because both of them were going to Beijing, they made an appointment to go together, and Lin Hai got a free bodyguard. Along the way, he encountered several strongmen, all of which made Liu Xianglian and the dart masters repulse. Liu Xianglian sighed: "There have never been so many thieves when I sent the darts. Lin Hai secretly doubted in his heart, they might be afraid of their own ideas? I didn't dare to leave the side of Liu Xianglian's boat anymore.

Fortunately, when he finally arrived in Beijing today, Lin Hai, who was just Jia Cong bouncing on the shore, saw it, and it was exactly as Jia Cong originally thought, because he was taught by Daiyu, and secretly regarded him as a disciple of the second generation. See that he is smart and cute, and likes to be tight. As soon as they met, he recklessly mentioned that "there is a gentleman who is very good at medical science", and became more and more satisfied: "Yu'er taught a good student with kindness. "It's just a little dry.

Then he said, "I must now go to the palace in front of the saint." ”

Jia Congqi said: "After so many months of tossing and turning on the boat, don't you find a place to rest first?" Not so desperate. Uncle, do you want to go to our house? Let me rest on my kang. ”

He is purely obedient, Lin Haiming knows that it is a naughty joke, and it is pleasing to his ears when he hears it, and he can't help laughing: "I have my own post house, but I don't have to work for you." ”

Jia Cong sighed: "Don't you come to see Sister Lin?" ”

Lin Hai thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the face of the king first, this is also a rule." ”

Jia Cong muttered, "I didn't even look at Sister Lin first, it's such a rigid rule", and Liu Xianglian only criticized "nonsense". Everyone walked outside together, and was about to get into the car, when suddenly an old servant in Tsing Yi flashed on the side of the road and saluted Lin Hai and said, "But Lord Lin from Gusu." ”

Lin Hai nodded: "Exactly." ”

The old servant said, "My lord has come to pick up Lord Lin." ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked up, only to see someone on an ordinary cyan carriage lifting the curtain, and Situ Pan leaned out half of his body with a smile.

Jia Cong slipped away very quickly, and "rubbed" up and smiled at others: "Brother Xianwang!" ”

Situ Pan touched the top of his head with a smile: "I've grown taller!" ”

Jia Cong clenched his little fist: "I'm practicing martial arts!" It's getting better! ”

Situ Pan praised: "Okay, very. And he said, "Don't slack off even in your studies." ”

Jia Cong nodded again and again: "Naturally!" I'm going to test the flowers! ”

Lin Ruhai happened to come over at this time, and asked with a smile: "Why isn't it the champion?" ”

Jia Cong said: "The champion is just talented, Tanhua must be handsome in addition to being talented!" Naturally, both talents and appearances are good. ”

Situ Pan laughed and said, "I have to go to my house to play for a while." ”

Jia Cong was overjoyed: "Really? I'm really going to go~~"

Situ Pan nodded, invited Lin Haihai to get a car, and went away. Jia Si also led this cadre back to the dart bureau to celebrate without mentioning it.

Lin Hai looked at Situ Pan and sighed: "Only you are a person who does not grow old. ”

Situ Pan said inexplicably: "I'm not old, and I'm not your age, Lord Lin." ”

Lin Hai smiled: "It's still a young man." He asked, "What does it mean to be a saint?" ”

Situ Pan skimmed and said, "Please ask the imperial doctor to diagnose you carefully, and stay for a long time." ”

Lin Hai smiled bitterly: "How can I not know my body? If you don't calm down and recuperate, even if the gods and Buddhas give elixirs, you won't be able to do it. If you leave a useful body, you will repay the king's kindness in the future. ”

Situ Pan also smiled bitterly: "There is no one who can be used." ”

Lin Haiqi said: "Will there be fewer people who work for the Son of Heaven?" There is no shortage of talent in the world. ”

Situ Pan sighed: "Don't you know my third brother? Suspicion is extremely serious, and it is commonly used by ordinary people; Partial to your yamen, where does he dare to let one go casually? Although there are many talents in the world, there are not many who he is willing to believe. ”

Lin Hai shook his head again and again, opened his mouth to say something, and endured it again. After being silent for a long time, he said, "Or a young man who has been looking for a letter to come over, and he will do things, and I will take care of and guide me." I'll rest when he's up to the task. ”

When Situ Pan heard this, he knew that his body was really not very good, he thought for a while, and nodded: "Just try it with him, and let the imperial doctor take a look first." ”

Lin Hai suddenly felt a trace of discouragement in his heart. After so many years of exhaustion, he even had to bargain to save his life.

When the two of them entered the palace, Lin Hai finished saluting, and the sage helped him up with tears, and sighed infinitely: "Ruhai, you are also old." ”

Lin Hai also burst into tears: "The saint's sideburns are actually whiter." ”

Situ Pan shook his head and said, "It's all tired, why bother to come, you can't let it go." If the third brother is still like this, he will have the same body as Lord Lin sooner or later. ”

The saint glanced at him. Situ Pan then unabashedly said that the two of them were discussing in the car, because he persuaded: "No one is beaten by iron, why don't you find a young and strong person to help Lord Lin?" ”

The saint said, "The imperial doctors are waiting outside, and they will come in quickly." ”

Dai Quan hurriedly went out to pass on people, and Lin Hai knelt down and thanked Tianen. After a while, six or seven imperial doctors came in from outside, and they asked Lin Hai one by one, tossing for a long time, and finally said the same. If you become sick from overwork, you must recuperate, otherwise the time will not be long. The saint was a little disappointed, waved them out, and sighed, "How can I do it. Now that the treasury is empty, it makes people laugh when they say it, and they actually rely on selling officials to maintain this court. ”

Lin Hai was shocked: "Why is this! ”

The saint sneered: "There is a little bit of me in this world. ”

Lin Hai has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, and the princes and magnates are very clear, and they are helpless. was furious for a while, and almost said the words of dying for the king. When he raised his head, he instantly saw a purse brought by Daiyu with the letter hanging on the placket of his clothes - small and exquisite, it was obvious that it took a lot of effort, Lin Hai loved it very much, and he never left his body every day - and thought of his daughter again, and finally lowered his head. After a while, he choked up and said: "The minister has the heart to share the worries of the saint, but this body is not angry." ”

The sage hurriedly said: "It's not that I haven't heard what the imperial doctor said, Ruhai will still raise some, and I will still count on you in the future." After thinking for a long time, he waved his hand and said, "You have been tired all the way, and you can rest." I'll talk about it when I come to business. ”

Lin Hai hurriedly said: "The minister still has one more matter. "Because he encountered many bandits in Beijing this time, he said.

Situ Pan hurriedly asked, "What have you ever carried?" ”

Lin Hai shook his head: "It's just some official business," and said with a smile, "The important things are in Weichen's mind." ”

The sage snorted, "I'm afraid it's just for the things in your head." He also remembered another thing, "Are you related to Rongguo Mansion?" ”

Lin Haidao: "Yes." The old lady of the Jia family was originally my mother-in-law. ”

The sage nodded: "In this case, you will go to your relatives in the coming day and say a word to Jia Yu." ”

Lin Hai should be busy.

"They still owe the treasury 800,000 taels of silver. If he doesn't pay it off, Jia Lian will work until he dies on the five-grade staff wailang - Jia Zheng may move. ”

Lin Haiyin got Daiyu's letter every month, and he knew that the Yue family's two rooms were not compatible, and Jia Lian's official position was now equal to Jia Zheng's. Hearing the words of the saint, I was amused for a while, and sad for a while. How sad it is that the king of a country should recover the debts owed by instigating the discord between the two houses of his courtiers.
