He is Lin Wenzhong's eldest grandson, Lin Huishu, the eldest brother of the four brothers of the Lin family.

The content of this letter is actually very familiar to him, and he can recite it almost without reading it.

“…… The book of sages cannot be increased or lost by the mouth of you! …… And my family's ancestors, the rate of ploughing and reading the old business, not only is the eunuch scarce, that is, the business service Jia, as far as the provinces, it is rare. The old student is cowardly, cold-tolerant and hungry and disgusted, and claims that he is poor and has no slang, and he has the tears of thought. Shao Xian Lu's military affairs, the cautious first go to the valley, Xu Jue is still okay, strong on the matter, now refers to the officials and nobles, so it is also chosen. From now on, high-ranking officials are generous, and they are all poor and poor in their ancestors. If the way of heaven does not gather, then it cannot be comfortable, how can there be day without night, how can there be spring and summer without autumn and winter, this constant principle is also. All the gentlemen are seeking for Sang Zi, and all those who go to Thailand for luxury are all known to maintain the simple and willing style of the ancestors to protect the world. Outside the lake, you can enjoy the blessing of Xiao leisure and loneliness for a long time, and it is fortunate to have a lot of ......"

After that, Lin Yishu first accused Lin Yizhe of violating the admonition left by his father to "study more and not participate in politics". He accused Lin Yizhe of "violating his father's precepts", the purpose of studying was to be an official, and accused him of unscrupulously taking the line of ascending to the throne in order to become an official, "stooping to the ghost", "using Western strange skills to bewitch the saint", thinking about his own promotion to the rank of knight, and "trapping the monarch's father in injustice, putting people's livelihood and fire and water (this sentence probably refers to Lin Yizhe's use of "garden worker" to solve the problem)", and finally scolded him for "disturbing the holy religion with heresy", "learning bad middle school with the West", and "wanting to change the summer with raze", which ruined the academic orthodoxy status of the Heavenly Empire, He is the "sinner of the ages" of the country and the nation!

After scolding, Lin Xunshu warned Lin Yizhe at the end of the letter to turn back quickly. It's not too late. If not. I want to break off brotherhood with him!

After receiving this letter, Lin Yizhe was unmoved, and even sent someone to send a letter, refuting his accusations unceremoniously, not only did not "turn back", but showed his eldest brother that he would carry out the cause of self-improvement in foreign affairs to the end!

The two brothers broke up and were never heard from again.

Now Lin Yizhe is gone. Lin Xunshu thought about her heart at night, thinking back on the past, and couldn't help but secretly feel a trace of regret in her heart.

The two brothers originally had a good relationship, Lin Weishu was born as a person, did not take the exam, and attacked the outsider, while Lin Yizhe was Xie Yuan of Fujian Province, when Lin Yizhe was in high school, he wrote a special letter to congratulate him, and he was happy for his brother's achievements from the bottom of his heart. It's just that after knowing that Lin Yizhe urged the garden workers to set up foreign affairs, the two brothers had different ideas. It leads to the eventual discord.

And after Lin Weishu calmed down, re-reflecting on what Lin Yizhe did, all of them were for the benefit of the country and the people, even the most criticized "garden workers", in fact, in addition to the royal family, the ordinary businessmen and ordinary people who participated in the project ultimately benefited!

After re-reading Lin Yizhe's books and articles on the introduction of the situation in Western countries, Lin Xunshu had to admit that his younger brother's knowledge is indeed above him now!

The ancestor Lin Wenzhonggong, for the sake of the national economy and the people's livelihood back then, did not avoid difficulties, and secretly studied the affairs of foreigners, and Lin Yizhe dared to do these things openly, and his knowledge and achievements undoubtedly surpassed those of the ancestors!

Now that Lin Yizhe has passed away, when his ancestors and grandsons meet under Huangquan, there will be some sighs, right?

And he fell into deep remorse......

Lin Shushu let out a long sigh, put the letter on the lamp, and burned it.

The letter was lit, and Lin Huishu threw the burning paper roll into the brazier, watching it turn to ashes little by little.

"Kunyu, for my brother...... I'm wrong for you......"

Lim returned to the bookcase, when his eyes fell on a newspaper.

It was a "Pictorial of Dian Shi Zhai".

Lin Huishu saw the news published in the pictorial that Lin Yiqing led the Satsuma army and civilians to join the Great Cadre and was awarded the title of first-class baron, and her heart moved again.

"Fourth brother...... It's true...... Is that you? ”

As the eldest brother, he actually knows very well the secrets of the twins born to his mother.

The twin brother Lin Yiqing was stolen by the gangsters from the night he was born, and the untimely death of his mother was not unrelated to the disappearance of the sad child.

The reason why the name of this child is given with the word "Yi" is also to commemorate his unfortunate life.

He never imagined that one day this younger brother would reappear in the world.

And in such an earth-shattering way.

He never imagined that this younger brother could do such a career in Japan!

And the queen mother specially sent someone to inquire, which shocked him even more.

My brother's reputation has already moved the heavens!

As for the intention of the Empress Dowager's inquiry, Lin Xunshu of course figured it out, and he did not hesitate to repay the truth and recognize this younger brother.

Now he is just waiting for this younger brother to return to his hometown and recognize his ancestors.

But in his heart, somehow, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Kunyu, you hide it from me......"

"You brothers...... How exactly do you get in touch overseas? ……”

"Hanpeng, all these years, you have ...... What went through...... will make you achieve such a great cause......"

"If you come back, will you really mess with me like those people say? ……”

Lin Xunshu said to herself, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and fell into contemplation again.

On the same night, his uncle, Shen Youdan, the governor of Liangjiang, who was in Nanjing, was tormented by a dream.

He dreamed again of the day when his wife Lin Puqing was critically ill.

……

"Zhe'er......" Lin Puqing called softly in a weak voice, and a pale and thin hand stretched out from under the quilt.

Lin Yizhe hurriedly rushed to Lin Puqing's sickbed, knelt down on his knees, lay on the side of the bed, held Lin Puqing's hand, and couldn't help but put her hand on his face.

"Auntie......"

With a choked call, his tears also welled up in his eyes at this moment and dripped onto the back of Lin Puqing's hand.

"Zhe'er ......"

At this moment, I saw the true feelings between the two. Chen Wan, Li Sizhu, Eya and Shen Youdan's daughters also shed tears.

"Silly boy. Don't cry...... Isn't this okay aunt......" Lin Puqing looked at Lin Yizhe and couldn't stop crying. Softly comforted him.

Lin Yizhe nodded, he wanted to stop the tears, but the tears were still flowing vigorously.

"Silly child, I loved to cry when I was a child...... Like a girl's house...... When I grew up, I thought you would be better, but I didn't think about it, it's still the same now......" Lin Puqing said with a smile, "How old is this." But in front of my mother, I'm still a child......"

Lin Yizhe held Lin Puqing's hand tightly, and that kind of strong attachment to his mother made Shen Youdan cry when he saw it.

"I came back so late every day...... Done with business? Lin Puqing asked softly.

"I'm done." Lin Yizhe nodded vigorously, still holding Lin Puqing's hand.

"Aunt called you here because there is something I want to talk to you about......" It may be that she was a little tired from talking too much, Lin Puqing couldn't help but cough lightly twice.

"Auntie, don't worry, speak slowly." Lin Yizhe looked at Lin Puqing worriedly and said softly.

"Wan'er...... Aya'...... Sizhu. Come here, ......" Lin Puqing turned his head slightly, calling to Chen Wan, Eya and Li Sizhu who were standing among the women.

Heard Lin Puqing call the three of them. Chen Wan seemed to have guessed something, she unconsciously glanced at Li Sizhu, stepped forward first, and knelt down in front of Lin Puqing's bed.

Aya was completely immersed in sadness at this time, and didn't think about why Lin Puqing called the three of them to come forward, she knelt down after Chen Wan, looking at Lin Puqing's eyes full of concern and sadness. Li Sizhu was stunned for a while before he stepped forward and knelt down next to Chen Wan.

Lin Puqing's eyes looked at the faces of the three girls in turn, her face was full of relief, she looked at it for a while before turning her head and facing Lin Yizhe.

"Zhe'er...... Before you came just now, I explained a lot of things......" Lin Puqing looked at Lin Yizhe, her eyes were full of tenderness, as if a mother was looking at her own son.

Seeing their mother's gaze, Shen Youdan's sons couldn't help but be moved, but Shen Yuqing was the only one, and his eyes couldn't help but radiate a light of jealousy and hatred.

"I ...... Right now...... The most unbearable ...... It's Zhe'er, you ......" Lin Puqing's voice was a little weak, but it was very clear, Lin Yizhe heard his aunt say that he couldn't let go of himself, his heart was moved, and tears couldn't help but flow down again.

"You are determined to forge ahead, do everything wholeheartedly, regardless of slander, dare to be the first in the world, and have the style of ancestors......" Lin Puqing shook Lin Yizhe's hand, "But you have to remember, the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and you must not be too showy, otherwise you will inevitably be frustrated, and even kill yourself......"

"My nephew remembers my aunt's teachings." Lin Yizhe choked up and agreed.

"Aunt watched you grow up since you were a child, when you were young, you were cowardly, and your aunt is afraid that you will marry a powerful daughter-in-law in the future, and you will be angry, but fortunately, these daughters-in-law you marry, all of them are gentle and virtuous, aunt looks at you, don't mention how happy she is......" Lin Puqing looked at Chen Wan and Eya again, nodded, and motioned for the two of them to come forward.

"Since you married Wan'er and entered the door, my aunt has had a good girl...... And Eaya, then she will take care of people, Zhe'er is really blessed to have you......"

"Auntie......" Chen Wan and Eya both knew that this was Lin Puqing confiding in them, and they couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Caiyue is also a good child, but it's a pity that she is so sick and is not here today......" Lin Puqing turned her head and said to Lin Yizhe, "Zhe'er, when I was in charge, I wanted you to accept Caiyue into the room, just to let you have a few more people around you to take care of and give birth, but now, she is seriously ill, I am afraid that she will not be able to get over this hurdle......" She sighed, and turned her eyes to Li Sizhu, who was still kneeling there, "Everyone is here today, so I will be the master and marry Sizhu ......to you."

Hearing that Lin Puqing was going to marry his adopted daughter Li Sizhu to himself, Lin Yizhe was taken aback.

"Sizhu...... Come here......" Lin Puqing called.

Li Sizhu listened to Lin Puqing's words just now, and her body couldn't help but be shocked, but she had always been obedient to Lin Puqing, so she didn't speak, just got up and came to Lin Puqing's side, and looked at her adoptive mother who had always regarded herself as a pearl in her palm with a slightly puzzled look.

"Sizhu...... My good girl...... When you grow up, your aunt has always wanted to find you a good family, and this time she is in charge of marrying you to Zhe'er. I've been thinking about it for a long time......" Lin Puqing looked at Li Sizhu. The mood seemed a little excited. "Zhe'er is a kind and righteous person, and he treats people best...... You follow him, and you won't suffer...... Would you like to? ”

"The daughter is all up to her mother...... Li Sizhu didn't think much about why Lin Puqing did this, at this moment, she was only thinking about how to let Lin Puqing, who loved her, stay in this world for a while, she held back her tears and responded softly.

"Zhe'er, Wan'er. I'll entrust Sizhu to you...... Although Zhe'er and Sizhu are called brother and sister, they are not related by blood, so they don't have to scruple ......" Lin Puqing glanced at Lin Yizhe, but his eyes fell on Chen Wan's face in an instant.

Chen Wan met Lin Puqing's eager gaze, nodded with tears in her eyes, and replied, "Auntie, don't worry, we will take care of Sizhu's ......."

Lin Puqing nodded with satisfaction, she saw that Lin Yizhe was still in shock, so she said to him again, "Zhe'er." Now Sizhu is still young, and when she turns twenty-eight. Then please ask your uncle to be the master and do the happy event, so that I can rest assured under the nine springs......"

"Aunt rest assured, my nephew will do it, and take a good look at Sizhu in the future." Lin Yizhe hasn't turned this corner yet, he unconsciously turned his head to look at Li Sizhu, and from her eyes, he also saw a trace of doubt and incomprehension, knowing that she must not have turned a corner now.

After saying so much in one breath, Lin Puqing may be tired, she looked at Lin Yizhe, smiled and closed her eyes.

Lin Yizhe thought that she had passed, and couldn't help but be shocked, but when he saw that his aunt was indeed asleep, and heard her faint but very even and steady breathing, he was relieved.

Shen Youdan was relieved to see that Lin Puqing was just asleep, he quickly waved his hand and motioned for everyone to withdraw, and the children of the Shen family and Shen Youdan's wife Wu withdrew from Lin Puqing's room in turn.

Lin Yizhe gently put Lin Puqing's hand back into the quilt, and reluctantly looked at Lin Puqing, who was already asleep, at this time Chen Wan said softly on the side: "You and Sister Eya go back first, here are me and Sizhu." ”

Lin Yizhe nodded, glanced at Lin Puqing again, Eya stepped forward and pulled his arm, Lin Yizhe got up and left the room with Eya.

"Congratulations, cousin." As soon as Lin Yizhe went out, far away, Shen Youdan heard a voice with a strange tone.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Shen Yuqing's smiling appearance, and he was immediately angry.

"You bastard!" Shen Youdan screamed, woke up from his dream, and sat up.

"Sir! Master! What happened to you? Mrs. Wu's panicked voice came, and Shen Youdan realized that everything just now was a dream.

"It's okay...... It's just a dream......" Shen Youdan sighed, waved his hand, and lay down on the bed again.

"Master just now...... Who did you dream about? Scolding like that......" Mrs. Wu gently wiped the sweat from Shen Youdan's forehead with a handkerchief and asked softly.

"By the way, where did Yu'er go? It's been all these days, and you haven't come back? Shen Youdan thought of Shen Yuqing and immediately asked.

"The old man is confused, didn't Yu'er go out to study? Last ...... After the lord punished him, he wanted to change his past, and he was determined to go out to study and increase his knowledge. Mrs. Wu said.

"Oh...... Yes, yes, yes...... I remember. Shen Youdan sighed, "I remember...... He said he was going to the Harbour Master's Bureau to have a look......"

"Yu'er thinks it's to repent to his cousin Kunyu, so I'm going to go to the shipmaster, master, since Yu'er has repented, you don't blame him anymore, okay?" Mrs. Wu understood what Shen Youdan was thinking, and persuaded softly.

"The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat...... I was also angry at that time...... Now that he has truly repented, what else do I have to say......" Shen Youdan nodded, probably in a hurry, he coughed violently.

"Master, Kunyu's twin brother has already sent a telegram, maybe he will come to see you in the next few days, you have to take care of yourself, don't meet at that time, get too excited, something will happen again......" Mrs. Wu saw Shen Youdan's haggard appearance, her eyes were full of worry.
