2. Hunt and kill

Lin Yu was more strange today, he was holding a letter in his hand, frowning together, pacing back and forth in the study.

Lin He didn't dare to disturb his father, he changed into clean clothes, got up and went to the kitchen to make dinner.

The "clang" of pots and pans interrupted Lin Yu's thoughts, he put down the letter paper in his hand, looked at Lin He, who was busy in the kitchen, and sighed softly.

For this son, although Lin Yu was stern, he was extremely satisfied in his heart. Lin He has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, and he knows everything about the knowledge he teaches, and he never needs him to tell it a second time.

Lin Yu originally hoped that his son would make achievements in his career, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time and encountered troubled times.

Three years ago, Lin Yu endured heartache and asked Lin He to respond to the imperial court's conscription order to participate in the great battle against Qianyan to recover the rivers and mountains.

The battle with Qianyan lasted for two years, and finally ended in the defeat of Jin.

For two years, there was no news from Lin He.

At that time, Lin Yu had already prepared for the worst. However, there was no way out, and to Lin Yu's surprise, Lin He returned to the Lin family village intact.

It is said that it is intact, but in fact, Lin He is very different from three years ago.

Lin He, who was only fifteen years old before enlisting in the army, was fair-skinned, delicate-looking, and powerless, looking like a white-faced scholar with a feminine temperament.

But now, Lin He's skin has turned a bronze color that has been formed by wind and sun for a long time. His arms are much broader, and his appearance is still handsome, but he has lost the weak aura of the past, and his face is angular, and he is resolute with a little coldness.

That night, after lifting Lin He's clothes, Lin Yu shed tears in front of his son for the first time.

There were more than a dozen sword scratches on Lin He's body, and one of the wounds was three inches long! There was an arrow wound the size of a finger under his chest. Seeing Lin Yu's heartache, the old tears were all over the place. I kept thanking God for the blessing and the protection of the ancestors of the Lin family.

Whenever Lin Yu asked Lin He about the past in the army, Lin He responded with silence. Lin Yu only said that Lin He was overly frightened, so he didn't mention it again.

......

Lin Yu understands that the current Great Jin Dynasty has the former Qin border eyeing the outside and the Huan Wen court controlling the government, which can be described as a domestic and external dilemma, and it is as dangerous as an egg. Therefore, no matter what choice Lin He makes next, he can't stay out of the crisis and stay alone, and this is definitely not the result that Lin Yu wants.

Lin Yu's current idea is to let his son live a safe and stable life.

It's just that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and when the country is dying, stability has become the most unobtainable luxury......

Lin Yu clenched the letter in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

"Daddy, it's time to eat." Lin He held a plate of stir-fried vegetables and a plate of fried beans with green peppers, facing Lin Yudao who was in a daze in the study.

Lin Yu put the letter in the book, nodded, and then slowly paced to the dining table, looking at the dishes on the table, frowning slightly.

"Dad, the rice grain at home is at the bottom, I will purchase some in the city tomorrow, and you will use some first." Lin He hurriedly handed over the chopsticks.

Lin Yu took the chopsticks, coughed dryly and said, "Chang Geng, this kitchen matter ......"

"I know, gentleman is far away from cooking, you have said more than once, but now that the farm is busy, the money is really not enough to hire helpers, just wait for this time." Lin He replied helplessly.

Chang Gung is the word given by Lin Yu to Lin He, this word is the same as the name of Tai Bai Xing, Lin He was slightly opposed at that time, but he was reprimanded by Lin Yu, so he didn't dare to say more, so he had to admit it.

"I know, I'm not talking about now, I mean, you're going to stay away from the kitchen when you get married." Lin Yu glared at him, as if he was blaming him for interrupting his words.

"What did I get married after I even had a girlfriend...... Ahem, I haven't decided ...... kiss" Lin He glanced at Lin Yu strangely, thinking that he had committed a demonic obstacle.

Lin Yu paused, and suddenly said with a pleasant face: "Chang Geng, what do you think of the eldest daughter of the Zhang Tong family?" ”

Hearing this, Lin He, who was drinking water, squirted out the water with a "poof", but fortunately he reacted quickly enough so that he didn't spit on Lin Yu's body.

After choking a few times, Lin He looked at his father with round eyes, and said in astonishment: "Dad! She...... She's still a child! ”

Lin Yu looked at his son's repeated gaffes and frowned, "What child!" Fluttershy is in her teens this year, and it's not uncommon for Cardamom to get married. ”

Thinking of Zhang Xiaodie's youthful appearance, Lin He's eyebrows, nose and mouth were all frowned together, "Dad, let's talk about this matter later, the child has no idea of getting married for the time being." ”

"You lazy!" Lin Yu scolded, looking at Lin He's dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, he didn't bother to say any more, put down the dishes and chopsticks and walked to the study.

"Lazy goods, lazy goods have to help you clean up the dishes and chopsticks." Lin He looked at the messy dinner table and muttered something with a pout.

……

There is an official road less than a few miles away from Linjia Village, which is said to have been built by the Xie family, so this official road was named Xie Ze by local officials.

Xie Zedao is connected to Shangyu in the east, Xiaoshan in the west, Zhuji in the south, leaning on the river in the north, extending in all directions, and relying on the Yangtze River natural danger, since ancient times, it is a place where soldiers must fight.

The morning sun sprinkled the glow on Xie Ze's official road, and the verdant leaves on the trees on both sides swayed gently in the breeze, as if thanking for the gift of the morning light.

There was no one on the official road, only a few oriole birds singing in the woods on both sides, quite a bit of "birdsong road is more secluded".

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves broke the silence!

A fast horse came galloping, and immediately carried two people!

Sitting in front was a young man dressed in a black silk and white-collared robe, his eyebrows were like willows, his face was like warm jade, his nose was beautiful, and he was tied with a gold silk crown, but at this time the crown was crooked, and his scattered hair was flying slanted with the wind, which looked quite embarrassed.

Childe's white and long neck has no Adam's apple, and he is clearly a woman dressed as a man!

In the Jin Dynasty until the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it is not surprising that women disguise themselves as men and show their heads, and the famous "Liang Zhu" is from this time, Hua Mulan came from the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Lou Xiao of the Southern Dynasties, dressed as her husband as a man, "Shi went to Yangzhou to discuss Cao to engage", which became a beautiful talk for a while.

The person who hugged this "son" tightly in the back was also a woman dressed as a man, who looked a little younger, wearing a black satin gown, a black scarf on her head, and black cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles, like a scholar.

The scholar's eyes were closed, his lips were pale, and his body trembled.

"Sister...... Sister! Is it almost there? The boy closed his eyes and shouted!

"Don't be afraid! Xiao You, it's almost time for the third uncle! ”

"Hold on, we'll be safe in no time!" The son-in-law comforted the scholar named Xiaoyou behind her, more like comforting herself.

The scholar clutched his sister's clothes tightly, not daring to open his eyes.

Between half a cup of tea, seven or eight black-clothed masked men galloped over on horses, reined in their horses at the fork in the road in front, and a black-clothed man leaning in front turned his head and respectfully asked the person next to him, "Du Wei...... Chief, where are you going? ”

The black-clothed man at the head looked at the marks on the ground, pointed to the road in front of him, and said coldly: "In the direction of Shanyin, they are looking for that person to report the news, and they will definitely not go to other places!" ”

"Yes, Chief!"

"Drive-drive-" In an instant, the official road was dusty......
