Lin Ruofu seemed to be a little angry, his palm was slightly pressed on the armrest of the chair, and the green tendons were faint, but after a while, he suppressed his anger and sneered: "I, Lin Ruofu, have had a bumpy career in my life, and I have also been in prison. But I have never been more desperate than I am today, and I have two sons and a daughter. ”

"The eldest son, Dabao, had a serious illness when he was a child. When he is cured, he grows up, but his mind is no different from that of a child. Wan'er suffered from tuberculosis again, and her time was short. Only the second son, Lin Hui, is worthy of the important responsibility, otherwise how could I hand over the great foundation of the Lin Mansion to you with a foreign surname? Speaking of this, Lin Ruofu's eyes left a line of turbid tears.

After a pause, he said, "I sent Mr. Yuan to the Supervision Yuan early in the morning to investigate, and the result was that the two of you did not know about the assassination on Niulanjie planned by Jue'er. Coupled with the fact that my Lin Mansion is heavily guarded, your strength is certainly good among the younger generation, but it is absolutely impossible to break into the Lin Mansion without knowing it and kill Jue'er again! Because of this, I knew early on that the person who killed Jue'er was not you, nor Fan Xian! ”

Ye Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Who is that?" Lin Xiang, do you have any guesses in your heart?! ”

Lin Ruofu stood up after hearing this, the grief on his face instantly turned into invisible hatred, holding the thin paper tightly in his hand, and said coldly: "I can only guess that person has the skills of the ninth grade, so he asked people to check the whereabouts of all the masters above the ninth rank in Kyoto." As for who? ”

"The Supervision Yuan, the eldest princess, the crown prince, the second prince, and even Your Majesty are all possible!"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Ruofu had long since lost his solemn and polite appearance, at this time he was more like a male lion who chose people to devour, and his eyes were full of a look called hatred.

After a period of deathly silence, Lin Ruofu handed Ye Xuan a calligraphy and painting, and said lightly: "This is written by Jue'er when she was young, and it is much worse than you." ”

Ye Xuan took the calligraphy and painting, looked at the words on the calligraphy and painting, and muttered in his mouth: "A hundred birds return to the forest?!" ”

The corners of Lin Ruofu's mouth were slightly upturned, his eyes were red and swollen yet, and he said with a smile: "The young man will always be a little unaware of the sky, let you laugh." ”

Although it was a few words, there was no hint of sarcasm in the tone, but a sense of relief.

"The second son's handwriting is very good, if you work it. I think I have already become a generation of people and are famous all over the world! Ye Xuanmi's eyes widened and said in a harmonious voice.

Lin Ruofu slowly closed his eyes, knowing that this was Ye Xuan's words to comfort him, so he simply didn't answer again.

After a while, Lin Ruofu slowly opened his eyes, and he began to appreciate the calm mind and attitude of the young man in front of him more and more.

"You have a grudge against the crown prince and Guo Baokun, do you vote for the second prince?"

Ye Xuan frowned, knowing that Lin Xiang, the old fox, hadn't believed him yet, so he replied calmly: "I do have a grudge with the crown prince, and I am only friends with the second prince. ”

Lin Ruofu took the calligraphy and painting from Ye Xuan's hand and put it on the candle flame, and the sadness in his eyes was gradually replaced by firmness. However, after a while, the calligraphy and painting were also burned to pieces, and he said lightly: "Once Wan'er marries you, the Lin family and the Ye family will be integrated in the court, plus the financial power of the inner treasury." At that time, you will be the most powerful young man in the younger generation of Qingguo, and even ordinary princes and nobles will give you three points. ”

"The Guo family and the crown prince will naturally resolve the conflict with you, but you must remember to dissociate yourself from the second prince, and you can't have anything to do with any prince, otherwise even I and your uncle Ye Liuyun won't be able to protect you!"

"Because of Your Majesty?" Ye Xuan frowned and asked.

Lin Ruofu listened to Ye Xuan's words, as if he suddenly thought of something, his expression became a little gloomy, and he sighed: "Exactly, the most taboo thing for a monarch is that someone has a strength that surpasses him." ”

"The relationship between this courtier and the emperor is not between a slave and a master. They are more like a pair of-for-tat chess players, just like this chess game, the slightest mistake is a complete loss! ”

Ye Xuan's heart moved when he heard this, and the Ye family and the Lin family, two behemoths in the court, suddenly mixed together. Coupled with the financial power of the inner treasury, with the temperament of Emperor Qing, it is not good to play another version of the flying birds of the Qing Dynasty, and the slingshot is hidden!

"Ye Xuan understands!"

After saying a lot of words, Lin Ruofu felt a little tired, but deep down he was a little excited, he stood up according to the armrest of the chair, stared at Ye Xuan and said word by word: "Remember, after a hundred years, no matter what your reason is, protect Dabao and Wan'er, as well as my Lin family's thoroughness!" I, Lin Ruofu, have never begged anyone in my life, so I beg you! ”

"Since Wan'er married me, she is connected to me by blood! Her family is my family, please rest assured about this! ”

"Everybody has their own position to stand, and different camps have to think about different things." Lin Ruofu looked at Ye Xuan's expression, and said with thoughtful emotion: "The death of Jue'er is precisely because he stood in the wrong position and took refuge under the door of the prince and the eldest princess behind my back. Now that Your Majesty is rich in the Spring and Autumn Period, with the strength of my Lin Mansion, there is no need to do anything from the ministers of the dragon. This is also the reason why he has brought trouble upon himself, and you should take it as a warning! ”
