Boss Li took his hands and circled around Lin Fan, looking at Lin Fan who was leaning over and said leisurely: "I heard that you won a sum of money in Qingfeng Mahjong Parlor two and a half months ago, but is there such a thing?"

Lin Fan suddenly realized, and finally knew why the emperor summoned him, it turned out that Yang Xu had complained, and I don't know what he said in front of the emperor, but it was definitely not a good word, alas, he was sorry that he concealed his son's affairs when he reported Wang Xuanqiong to the emperor, if the emperor knew that his precious son was in cahoots with the emperor's great enemy, then Yang Xu would probably cry in the dungeon at this time.

"I didn't say a word, I was thinking about the reason for playing the stuff again, let's say, what is the reason this time."

Boss Li sat back on his throne, holding a cup of hot tea and blowing gently, waiting for Lin Fan to speak.

Lin Fan secretly smiled bitterly, shook slightly, and said: "What the minister said is not a fabricated reason, but the truth, so the minister can't answer His Majesty's question, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive you."

Boss Li glanced at Lin Fan approvingly, gently put down the teacup, and said: "Don't agree with what I said nonsense, yes, sure enough, unlike most Aiqing, let's talk about it, why did you break Yang Xu's beloved son's leg, don't say that because he doesn't give money, I know that you are not short of money and are not good at gambling, there must be a reason why you have taken such a lot of trouble."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Lin Fan arched his hand slightly, and briefly informed the second daughter of Chu what happened, Boss Li frowned slightly after hearing this, and suddenly smiled for a long time: "I know that the person I value is definitely not an unscrupulous person, I have my own decision on this matter."

Lin Fan quietly retreated, he knew the deep meaning of what the emperor said, his decision was to forget about it, since he knew the truth, he couldn't see Yang Xu's intention to punish Lin Fan, and he wouldn't punish the minister because of a minister's son making trouble, this is not a big deal, it's just a mistake to hurt a people's girl.

Of course, Boss Li's temper can be so good mainly because he has added another prince, and now that it has reached the end of the year, he can't punish too much, and it's better to be festive, so this matter has been overturned.

Lin Fan strolled in the palace, looking at the cloudless clear sky, his mood was infinitely beautiful, and he wanted to hum a little song and whistle, but this was the palace, and he couldn't make noise casually, so Lin Fan had no choice but to initiate obscenity and sing silently in his heart.

Unconsciously out of the Chengtian Gate, there are many carriages at the door, and many officials are preparing to go home, not far from his carriage, Lin Fan saw Yang Xu and Wei Zheng chatting speculatively, from the smile on his face, it can be seen that he was in a better mood after telling Lin Fan to Boss Li.

But when Lin Fan deliberately appeared in his line of sight, that smiling face was instantly pulled into a gloomy face, and his gaze also fell from Wei Zheng to Lin Fan, with an unkind look in his eyes.

Wei Zhenghu turned his head suspiciously, and when he saw Lin Fanyun standing there lightly, with a slight smile in the corner of his eyes, his suspicious eyes instantly turned into disgust, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

He turned back to Yang Xu and said, "Looking at this son's disgusted smile, could it be that His Majesty has not punished him?"

"It should be."

Yang Xu nodded, glared at Lin Fan and gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go and ask Your Majesty for an explanation again!" Huan'er not only broke his leg but also disappeared, and he was alone with a crippled person."

Thinking about Yang Lihuan's difficult situation of being alone, thinking about how he was begging from others at the moment, Yang Xu felt a touch of sadness in his heart, which turned into grief and anger at this moment, and then turned into firmness: "I must seek justice for Huan'er!"

With that, he turned and strode to the door.

"The old man will accompany you!" Wei Zheng glared at Lin Fan fiercely, flicked his sleeves and followed.

"Lord Yang."

Lin Fan's leisurely voice sounded, but Yang Xu didn't appreciate it at all, and continued to stride away, Lin Fan had no choice but to raise his voice and continue to say leisurely: "Doesn't Lord Yang want to know Yang Lihuan's whereabouts?"

This sentence is still very effective, Yang Xu and Wei Zheng stopped almost at the same time, and when Yang Xu turned around, he strode towards Lin Fan, with a touch of fierceness in his eyes.

"Where is Huan'er, where are you hiding him, say!"

Lin Fan looked at him with a smile, seeing that Wei Zheng was about to follow, he motioned for Yang Xu to come over and whisper, Yang Xu glanced at Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng stopped knowingly, looked at Lin Fan coldly, and saw what trick he wanted to play.

Lin Fan took a step closer and whispered in Yang Xu's ear: "Your Huan'er is now with Wang Xuanqiong, the imperial court criminal."

Yang Xu's body trembled suddenly, and his face was shocked, but he still kept calm and listened to Lin Fan continue.

"He lives a very chic life, and his broken leg was also picked up by Wang Xuanqiong, and now he is a lively person, so you don't have to be sad, you don't have to be sad that he can't survive, one thing you can rest assured, I didn't tell others about this matter, when he and Wang Xuanqiong came to my house to make trouble before, I didn't show him, and I didn't explain it when I saw His Majesty this morning, so only you know about this matter now, of course"

Lin Fan smiled slightly and said: "If you want to make it known all over the city, I have a way, but I don't want to do it, just tell Your Majesty alone, you also know how much Your Majesty hates Wang Xuanqiong, if Your Majesty knows about this, what do you think Your Majesty will do, Lord Yang."

Yang Xu stood there in a daze, his face was cloudy, some happy, some worried, some hateful, some angry, in the end, he could only close his eyes and look up to the sky and sigh, swallowing all this into his stomach, now that he has a handle in the hands of others, it seems that he will be afraid of this young man in the future.

But it is gratifying that Huan'er is safe and sound, which is enough, although he is with Wang Xuanqiong, but this matter is also known to this young man, he said that if he will not leak the secret, it will not be leaked, and now the situation is very good, Huan'er will let him continue to disappear.

Lin Fan left, Wei Zheng walked over quickly, looked at his back and asked Yang Xu curiously, "What did he tell you?"

Yang Xu's expression quickly regained his composure, Wei Zheng couldn't see the complicated look on his face, he watched Lin Fan's figure disappear into the carriage, sighed secretly, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, let's go, let's go back too."

Wei Zheng was puzzled: "Aren't you going to see Your Majesty?"

Yang Xu sighed and said: "Forget it, it is understandable that Huan'er was stabbed by Lin Fan, just Lin Fan told me the truth, he was because Huan'er had injured a folk girl but there was no compensation, so he designed to teach him a lesson"

Yang Xu sighed again and said: "There's no way, we are unreasonable first, let's not quibble about anything, if you anger Long Wei because of this, it's not good, go back."

Wei Zhenghu looked at Yang Xu suspiciously, always feeling that his words were not very true, but he didn't know where the untruthfulness was, he wanted to say that Yang Lihuan's price was too great, wouldn't he just smash a people's girl, why did he break a leg, but the parties tolerated it, why should he, an outsider, argue, if he had a stalemate with His Majesty, it would not be much good, not to mention that His Majesty has no responsibility to deal with this matter, this is not a major national matter.

"Okay, if the old man has any news about Ling Lang's whereabouts, he will tell you."

Yang Xu nodded slightly and said, "Lord Lao Wei has bothered."

Lin Fan drove the car to his home leisurely, his heart was calm, he didn't tell Boss Li about Yang Lihuan for everyone's good, now it's nearly a year old, everyone has recovered their past joy after Wang Xuanqiong's incident, he doesn't want to create another bloodshed, the Wang family at the beginning of the year is enough for him to be shocked, and another bloodshed at the end of the year will be too killing, everyone finally got out of the haze, and then fell into a haze I'm afraid many people can't stand it.

Lin Fan couldn't stand it first, now this kind of peaceful atmosphere is the best, and at the same time, Yang Xu has a handle in his own hands, and it is so cool to grab someone else's handle.

Lin Fan did not regret the decision he made this time, he knew Boss Li's reaction after knowing this, in order for everyone to have a good year, for Chang'an, this smoke and rain will pass like a dream, in order not to set off another smoke and rain, he committed the crime of deception, even if the emperor knows about this matter in the future and starts to ask for guilt, he can pat his chest and say loudly: I have a clear conscience!

This year, because of his participation, there is one more major killing event, although some people should be killed, but under the rule of Boss Li, there are many innocent people affected, Lin Fan doesn't want the Yang family to repeat the mistakes of the Wang family, and see more innocent people die for this, how good it is now.

As soon as I got home, I learned from the second stunned man that a guest was visiting, in fact, this guest was not a guest in Lin Fan's opinion, and he could be regarded as a friend who knew each other.

Although Lin Fan is not at home, Yan Liben is still very popular, he can draw a good painting, the Lin family respects him very much, and he gives him a seat and tea, and finally he was sent to the inner house to play mahjong with several female dependents.

When Lin Fan returned to the back house, they were having a good time, Lin Fan had a hobby of watching others play mahjong, which was to first see if the money in front of people was thick, and then sighed in his heart The person with the most money: the luck is really strong.

Today, Dong Yumo's luck is the most vigorous, there is a bunch of small tree roots in front of her, each branch represents how much money, the more it means, the more it means, this is the way the Lin family plays mahjong, not directly with cash instead, but at the end of the start to count money.

Yan Liben is in Dong Yumo's upper family, and his luck may have been absorbed by the lower family, he is the worst one of the four, and now there are a few roots in front of him, I heard that he still owes Dong Yumo 200 roots, which is two yuan for one ten.

Lin Fan was very curious about why Yan Liben lost so badly, so he watched behind him for a while, and finally found the answer speechlessly, it turned out that this guy lost on purpose, and the cards played were deliberately given to Dong Yumo to eat, no wonder she would win so much, he would lose so much, it turned out that this was the reason.

Nothing is done, nothing is done, the purpose of a man's dedication to a woman is nothing more than that... Could it be that this young painter is interested in Dong Yumo?

I'm afraid so.

After observing the words and looking at the color for a while, it was really not much different from his guess, Yan Liben looked at Dong Yumo's eyes a little wrong, although Xue Tao was the most beautiful in it, but he didn't look at it much, since he knew that Xue Tao belonged to Lin Fan, he didn't dare to have other ideas, so he aimed at Dong Yumo.

It's just that Dong Yumo always looks indifferent, always very indifferent, and doesn't seem to be interested in things between men and women, she understands Yan Liben's intentions, but she just pretends not to see it.

Yan Liben, who had come to offer his hospitality to Dong Yumo, went back after losing the money he brought, and then had a luncheon at the Lin family.

Looking at Yan Liben's disappointed and departing back, Lin Fan didn't have much sympathy, how could it be possible to let a woman who had been educated by the Lin Academy be your concubine, the Lin Academy was not an empty shell・・・・・・

"Time flies, and it's the end of the year in a flash." In a garden pavilion in the backyard of the Lin family, Xue Tao looked at the endless sky and sighed like this, the scenery was pleasant, and the rising sun was clear, which seemed to be extremely incommensurate with her feelings at the moment.

"After the Chinese New Year, I will be sixteen years old." Xue Tao stroked Lin Fan's jet-black hair lying on her lap, and sighed softly intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "It's only sixteen years old, is it necessary to be so sad." ”

Xue Tao scolded with a smile: "Sixteen is not big, and it will be old in a few years." ”

Lin Fan only smiled silently, but thinking about the ancients' thinking about age was completely different from that of later generations, this was mainly because of the low average age, and it was normal to have this kind of thinking.

He thought about it, held Xue Tao's hand, and looked at her gently: "After the New Year, we will go to Qiantang to worship our mother, and by the way, fulfill my father's wish, and then... Go to your uncle's house in Jiangzhou to propose, and then we will choose a date to marry, what do you say." ”

Xue Tao looked at Lin Fan with a look of surprise, her heart was full of emotion, she didn't know what to say to express her emotions at this time, she just nodded heavily, and all the words were in her eyes.

Lin Fan gently stroked Xue Tao's soft jade hand and said softly: "We have to have a good time this year, after all, it is of great significance." ”

"How?"

"Because this year is my biggest harvest, I have a mansion and a beautiful woman, and everything I didn't dare to imagine before has now been realized, and this year is worth remembering."

"It's really memorable, but I don't know how to prepare."

"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing, just have a housekeeper in charge, you...

When there is only a month before the first day, the whole world is busy, trying to make a last handful of money when welcoming the new year, which is mainly for those businessmen, for farmers who make a living from farming, this time is a time of leisure, they spend such time on how to welcome the new year, and make various preparations for the arrival of the first day.

Although the Lin family is not based on agriculture as their main industry, they have more leisure time, especially the generals sent by the imperial court, and these generals basically have no task of guarding the house at present, so they are all sent by Lin Fan to help and reorganize the Lin Mansion with other subordinates.

There are still some places in the Lin Mansion that have not been paved with cement, and they have to be made up before the Chinese New Year, and some places that need to be reinforced need to be re-cemented, anyway, the Lin family is not short of money, although these cements are purchased from the imperial court, but the Lin family also has a certain share, and all these cements can be deducted directly from the share.
