Lin Ying was originally from Jiangbei, and when he was a child, he was separated from his father and mother at home, and was later adopted by Mr. Jin, who was teaching, so he felt in his heart that there was only one way to gain a foothold in the world and not be bullied, and that was to study.

It's such an idea, so I haven't learned a single bit of kung fu for many years.

Not only that, when I was young, it was common to read at night, and even my body was burned a lot, and my body was so painful that I couldn't sleep on a cold and damp day.

The work of climbing high and low is even more unthinkable. A casual fall was enough for him to lie in bed for ten days and a half.

So at this moment, no matter how unreliable this scene is, he can only stand outside the crowd and watch anxiously, and there is no one in the house to discuss for a while, but it is embarrassing.

The crowd climbed to the top with great excitement, stood on the last step of the wooden ladder, and looked at the two halves of the handles towards the side of the beam on the roof, thinking that they could see the appearance of the most beautiful man in Beijing, but they were disappointed to see the long and quiet wasteland outside, a plain and silver-clothed field, which has been spreading forward, and finally the high wall of the ancient temple with lingering sounds.

Lilac saw that Lin Ying was quite anxious on the side, and hurriedly explained: "Adults don't have to worry too much, just seeing that Master Shangshu is so good at kung fu, there should be no accident!" ”

Lin Ying didn't have time to tilt his head to look at her, and his eyes never left the eaves that had been surrounded by figures. His eyebrows were furrowed, and his tone was quite sad, as if something terrible had happened, and he kept stomping his feet inadvertently: "What do you know, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a civil official, how can he compare with the bandits who are on the beam, and I don't know where the confidence came from to chase after him, it's really worrying!" ”

The wind grabbed the branches of the trees on the side and shook them for a while, making a dull crashing sound. I didn't hear the sound of footsteps behind me, but someone said behind my back: "Lord Lin is very concerned about the safety of this official, how can he pretend to be so jerky, but he is shy on his face and doesn't say it, and he has to say it behind his back?" ”

His expressionless face and this statement made people feel a little confused whether it was he who said it himself.

Lin Ying threw himself on the eaves in front of him, and his expression and movements looked extremely serious. Suddenly, a figure came out from behind him, and his whole body trembled when he raised his voice, if it weren't for Lilac to support him, he would definitely have to sit in the snow nest.

stroked his chest and calmed down, his heart was uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to open his mouth to insult. So he deliberately said in a weird way: "Adults are kind to their humble duties, and the safety of adults is naturally to be kept in mind." If something happens to the lord in the lowly mansion, and the lowly office is accused of murdering the benefactor for no reason, it will not be cleared. ”

After a pause in the middle of the words, he thought of the side again, and suddenly smiled: "How can adults walk without sound, such kung fu to be a guest on the beam, but it can be full of gold and silver, and it is condescending to be this official in this court." ”

Then he closed his mouth and stood on the side and smiled contentedly.

Luo Yan steadied, covered the wound on his hand, quickly put his hands behind his back, and took a big step forward. Lin Ying thought that he had made another move, but his tone suddenly became quite low: "You really just have such a mind?" ”

"If not, what do you think Lin should have?" He habitually took a step back.

Luo Yan still kept his gaze on him for a moment, his eyes were complicated and difficult to understand. Then he raised his eyes and looked at the maids who were already crowded in front of the house: "I'm tired, you have dispersed this crowd, I have cleaned up the house and are going to rest!" ”

Lin Ying didn't expect it, he was stunned for a while, and it took a while to react, and he was very surprised: "Ah, what? ”

Luo Yan simply ignored him, just skipped him, pushed the crowd into the room, and slammed the door shut.

Seeing Lin Ying's frowns, Lilac was so shocked that her mouth was half-open and couldn't close it for a long time, so she beckoned everyone: "Don't you have to work, since you are so idle, shouldn't you have your monthly salary left?" ”

In a word, everyone scattered, and then she knocked on the door and asked: "It's time for lunch, after the annoying adults move to the front hall to eat, the slave family is looking for someone to clean up this house and then rest?" ”

There was no sound in the back room, and I could vaguely see the light and red wax. Lin Ying's thoughts were clear at this time, and he hurriedly asked, "My lord is so good at kung fu that he retreats with his whole body, can the thief be caught?" ”

There was silence again, and after a long time, when the two of them turned around and entered the corridor helplessly, they faintly replied: "Let him run away today and count his fate, and when he comes back another day, he will take his dog's life!" ”

Lilac glanced up at Lin Ying, and saw that Luo Yan's words were a little looser, so she asked, "My lord, but please go back again?" ”

Lin Ying smiled: "That's it, I can't blatantly punish him, so now that he himself has given me this opportunity, how can I miss it." If you starve him for a meal, after an hour you bring him a cup of black chicken soup, if he refuses to drink it, he will leave it outside, and it will be no big deal! ”

Lilac succumbed to the order, and the two of them entered the front hall one after the other.

The snow began to fall before dawn in the early morning, and continued to rain until the evening when the sky darkened, and the steward instructed people to sweep the courtyard every other hour, so that the path in the house could barely be walked.

After lunch, Lin Ying stayed in the front hall to read the files, and from time to time he had to ask someone if the two young masters in the house had come back. The people sent out during the day found no trace, and he always remembered in his heart, afraid that something had gone wrong with those two people because of his own reasons

But this is a useless effort, and by the time the steward came to the front hall to pass through, it was already dark outside, and it was a situation where he couldn't see his fingers.

Lin Ying heard the news and hurriedly put on his coat and hurriedly walked to the door to look, taking advantage of the light of the two octagonal lanterns that the slave was slipping in front of, he saw two figures swaying outside, holding his little hand and running into the room, bringing muddy water with him.

He leaned to the side, and the two of them hissed and howled, and went straight to the charcoal stove in the house, removed the iron kettle resting on the stove, and stretched out their hands to rub their hands against the flames, and warmed each other's ears.

Lilac boiled ginger soup early in the morning, and brought it into the house at this moment, his eyes were bright, seeing that Chi Ping's clothes were full of mud and damaged, he put down the objects in his hand and hurriedly entered the inner hall, and when Lin Ying closed the door and turned around to ask questions, he came with a shirt and waited for him to change the one on his body.

"What happened, why did you come back at this hour?" Lin Ying's face was anxiously covered.

Chi Ping's face was red from the cold, and both cheeks were stained with mud. When he looked sideways at He Jian beside him, He Jian raised his sleeve and wiped it for him, which made him smile quite happily, and by the way, he waved his head and widened his eyes, and the full mouth of Jianghu Qi was very inconsistent with the scholarly appearance on his face:

"The two of us have done a big thing today, you have to stand firm and listen, don't be scared!"

Weizhi is Lin Ying's small character, he doesn't often mention it, so not many people know about it, and even fewer people call it, but he is always on his lips when he is late.

Lin Ying heard his tone and attitude, and immediately knew that there should be no major incident, so he took a long breath of relaxation, slowly bowed down and sat down again, with an indifferent look: "Big deal? You two don't make any big trouble, and do something big! ”

Chi Ping frowned when he heard this, glanced at He Jian, stepped to the side of the felt, snatched the file from Lin Ying's hand, raised his eyes, thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "Something happened to the court this morning!" ”

On the other side, He Jian opened the door and walked out, shouting, and after a while, like a scene in the daytime, several domestic servants moved in a box of things.

Lin Ying leaned lazily on the square table next to him, wrapped a fox fur coat tightly on his body, looked at the movement outside the door, tilted his head and asked, "What did you say, but the emperor punished Luo Yan Yulu?" ”

Chi Ping's eyes were obviously surprised: "What's the matter, this news has already reached the house?" ”

Lin Ying thought about what happened during the day, and couldn't help sighing, feeling a little bitter smile: "The master in the words came once during the day, and he brought seven or eight boxes like you!" ”

Chi Ping's face was even more surprised, but he didn't look too lazy to mention it again, and hurriedly changed the topic again: "Don't talk about this, let's talk about it, what kind of moth are you doing, but it's the big thing you said?" ”

Chi Ping pursed his lips, and the two of them looked in the direction of He Jian, who saw the meaning, sent a few minions down, and personally bowed down to uncover the box.

The lights in the room were not very bright, but you could still clearly see that the box of shining jewels was dazzling, and it was very eye-catching.

"Weizhi, you haven't seen so many good babies, right?"

Chi Ping's face was proud, and even He Jian, who was standing on the side, smiled very happily, as if waiting to be praised.

But this scene frightened Lin Ying's body trembling, and his words began to stammer: "This ...... Where did this come from? ”

Then he stood up with wide eyes, walked up and rummaged through the box, saw that the pearl and jade ring had everything, and thought about Chi Ping's very embarrassed appearance, swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, looked at He Jian and asked: "Didn't you two do something unseemly?" ”

He saw him smile when he looked at him, raised his hand on the lid of the box and slapped it suddenly, and the box was closed with a click. Only then did he touch his nose with his hand, and said with a simple face: "Lord Lin is really very smart, these objects were stolen by the two of us!" ”

Before he could react, Chi Ping put his arm on his shoulder behind him, and added: "That Luo Yanding is not a master to be messed with, it is a small matter for you to lose him for three months, the important thing is not to let him remember you in his heart, and make it difficult for you in the future." If you take these objects to make amends for his sins, the things of this year will be completely turned over! ”

These words were like a thunderbolt that was smashing him, Lin Ying's face froze, and he turned his face back to look at Chi Ping very stiffly: "It's too late for you to use this thought, that master is already living in the mansion now." ”
