Chapter 312: Returning to Hometown for the New Year
Lin Sha returned to Suzhou before the Chinese New Year......
There was no way, the conflict in the restaurant made the literati present angry and frightened, and no one could afford the anger of a golden prince.
Hastily sent the few golden warriors who were knocked to the ground by Lin Sha to the infirmary, and then the soldiers said to each other to take care and went their separate ways. Those who have official positions have to go to work hard, waiting for the court to be convicted. The scholars who didn't eat the official meal immediately packed up, rolled up the covers and ran away, and Lin Sha was naturally one of them.
Of course, although the scholars who participated in the Wenhui were timid, they were not contaminated with the bad habits of officialdom at this time, and they were still very righteous, and praised Lin Sha's performance that day, not to mention, they asked Lin Sha to go first before they ran away, after all, he was the one who did it, and if the envoy of the Jin State found fault, he would be the first to be unlucky.
Lin Sha didn't try to be a good man, although he subconsciously didn't think much about this matter, but he was still very worried in his heart, after all, he personally beat the guards around King Jin into that kind of virtue, in other words, he would not give up easily, or stay away from Lin'an, a place of right and wrong, to avoid the limelight.
So, he received a lot of rituals from a literati friend, and first went back to Niujia Village to explain the burden, and then returned to his hometown Suzhou non-stop, with the protection of the Lin clan, even if the court wanted to find fault, the matter of beating the envoys of the Jin State could not be said on the table, with the strength of the Lin clan, it was still very safe.
"My friends are also too fussful, since the current official family came to power, they have changed their previous foreign compromise policy, and are aggressive and ambitious to recover the land lost in Jingkangnian, although the Qingyuan Northern Expedition did not achieve the desired results. But the Jin people didn't take advantage of it in the slightest! ”
In the study outside the mansion of the Lin clan chief in Suzhou City, Lin Shazai carefully told the patriarch about his experience in Lin'an. Naturally, he didn't forget to beat the envoy of the Jin State to protect him, which made Lin Shi's contemporary patriarch jump up from his chair in shock. His face was full of seriousness, and there was a faint uneasiness in his eyes.
Lin Sha was very calm, and comforted the patriarch with kind words that he didn't need to worry, and said everything he thought on the way back: "As long as the high-level officials of the court don't move, even if those slippery petty officials below want to leave a back road to tie up the envoys of the Jin Kingdom, with the patriarch, your prestige in Shilin is enough to scare off most of them!" ”
"Don't be so absolute, you kid!"
The patriarch of the Lin clan was stern in his language, but his demeanor was much more relaxed, he shook his head and frowned and admonished: "There has never been a spectrum for the change of wind direction in the court, who knows if he will be tough on Jin Guo today and will relapse tomorrow?" ”
"It shouldn't happen when the government is in power today, right?"
Lin Sha chuckled and shook his head, there was still a word that he didn't say, wouldn't it be a slap in his mouth if it was true. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the southern forces were so weak that they had never done this, and if the current official family came to such a hand, they would wait for the stench for 10,000 years!
"You kid better be careful!"
The patriarch of the Lin clan also felt that it was unlikely, and the previous emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty had been in power for a long time, and the current official family was not a weak body, as long as there was no accident, it would not be a problem to be in power for at least ten more years, and by then Lin Sha's wisdom would have squeezed into the court. The Jin State is not as strong as when it opened the dynasty, and it is still difficult to meddle in the appointment and dismissal of officials in the Southern Song Dynasty!
"However, the king of Hades is very difficult to deal with, and some officials have resorted to all kinds of means in order to make a little profit. You'd better be careful! ”
Lin Sha was happy when he heard it, and waved his fist and said confidently: "Don't worry, patriarch, what I'm worried about is the fair and honest means, as for the conspiracy and tricks, hehe." I can beat the envoy guards of the Jin Kingdom to the bust, and the general characters only have to deliver food! ”
……
After talking about Lin Sha's troubles, the Lin clan patriarch commented on Lin Sha's performance in Lin'an. Overall, he was quite satisfied with Lin Sha's performance.
was able to resist the temptation of Lin'an Flower World, and moved to Niujia Village, a slightly remote village, according to local conditions. Later, he established a small private school in the village to gain a firm foothold, and all of them satisfied the patriarch of the Lin clan.
I also know that the small private school in Niujia Village only teaches reading and literacy. With only half a day of class time a day, Lin Sha had enough time to review his homework and improve his knowledge, and he was even more satisfied.
Of course, Niujia Village is a little far away from Lin'an, and this little trouble is nothing in the eyes of the Lin clan patriarch. Since Lin Sha wants to live independently and rely on his own skills to support himself, some difficulties must be faced.
Besides, although the Southern Song Dynasty was weak, it suffered repeated losses in the war with the Jin State, and the social atmosphere liked luxury and enjoyment, and it was resistant to war or all martial arts, but some families with elements did not object to the children of the clan to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies. Maybe it will come in handy at some point.
The ambition of the Jin State to the Southern Song Dynasty has always been immortal, but after the military strength of the founding of the country was at its peak, the military strength began to decline slowly with the founding of the country, although the Southern Song army still maintained an absolute suppressive posture, but it was unable to launch a large-scale war against the Southern Song Dynasty.
However, after nearly a hundred years of friction and conflict, some big families in the south of the Yangtze River are still very worried about the future of the Southern Song Dynasty, and no one knows how long the imperial court can withstand the soldiers of the Jin State, not to mention the restoration of the homeland of the heyday of the Great Song Dynasty.
Otherwise, how could Lin Chaoying practice martial arts back then?
However, Lin Sha was full of confidence in his martial arts at this time, and after all the things that happened in Niujia Village and Lin'an City, he could already be sure that the boxing skills he was born with in his mind were very powerful!
On the way back to his hometown, he suddenly came back to his senses, how could the guards beside the dignified King Jin be weak?
But the result?
was knocked over three by a small bench by him, and the rest were so frightened that their faces were bloodless!
At the time, I didn't think anything of it, I just thought that I was lucky to catch those golden warriors off guard. Later, Wanyan Honglie suddenly revealed his identity and startled him, and he was only thinking about how to solve this trouble, how could he think about anything else?
But now that I think back on it, there are a lot of doubts, the guards who can follow the dignified prince are definitely the elite in the army or the masters of martial arts, can't they even avoid the half-wind that flies?
Thinking back to the beginning, he picked up a small bench and charged forward, with a backhand and a backhand, it seemed that it was so easy that the opponent had no power to fight back at all, but how could this be possible?
But the fact is so ridiculous, it can only prove that his strength is far superior to those Jin Kingdom warriors who can't even fight for a short time!
With such an idea, coupled with the fight with the Taihu Lake bandits when he rescued Miss Lu Jia, the fight with Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin, two heroes in Niujia Village, and the fight with the suspected Qu Lingfeng Jianghu master, it seems that none of them has fallen behind, which is even more affirmative of the extraordinary boxing techniques he has practiced for many years!
Of course, he has a plan in his heart, there is no need to say everything, as a guarantee of survival in troubled times, it is still very applicable.
……
The patriarch of the Lin clan, Liulin Sha, had a hearty lunch, and then compared his homework, and was very satisfied with his progress in learning, and specially pointed out his shortcomings and shortcomings, encouraging him to make persistent efforts to reach a higher level, and not to be proud and arrogant because of a little achievement.
Lin Sha naturally said yes, said goodbye before it was almost dark, hurried out of Suzhou City with the gift given by the patriarch of the Lin clan, and returned to Lin Village's house before nightfall.
Because there are several children's shows in the village, all Lin Sha, although the little boy has attracted much attention because of his age, it has not reached the level of everyone complimenting the city, except for the few days when he just came back, he was a little lively, and he was either invited to the family's hometown to eat and drink or was dragged to the village children's house to contact the feelings, and then life returned to calm and was no different from before.
Lin Sha likes such a simple and leisurely day very much, reading books and practicing ligatures every day, discussing articles and poems with the children of the same village, and rushing to Suzhou City and the nearby lively markets with the team to buy New Year's goods, and dress up the cold list home to welcome the New Year with joy!
The weather before the Chinese New Year became more and more cold and gloomy, and after the twentieth day of the lunar month, the sky was fluttering and snowing, and the snow became more and more overwhelming, but overnight, the entire Lin Village and even Suzhou Mansion were turned into a white world covered in silver.
The so-called Ruixue Mega Year, watching the endless goose feather snow fluttering in the sky, many old people in the village have a happy smile on their faces, looking forward to a better harvest in the field next year. As for the children, they are even more happy, and the snowball fights and snowmen are full of children's happy figures and cheerful laughter.
The closer to the New Year, the stronger the atmosphere of the New Year in the village, such as the twenty-third sacrifice of the Stove God in the Lunar Month, looking at the words written on the statue of the Stove God, such as 'the East Kitchen Division Commander', 'The God of Human Supervision', 'The Head of the Family', and there is a book next to it, 'The Sacrifice Stove is a good thing, and the lower realm is safe', and suddenly I couldn't help but think that the gods can also be easily bought?
Next is the whole village dusting, each household is busy cleaning and cleaning, and then it is to write Spring Festival couplets and paste New Year's paintings, as the village's children's little show, Lin Sha was invited by the village to write a few Spring Festival couplets, he is also happy to enjoy this New Year's atmosphere.
declined the invitation of the clan elder to celebrate the New Year with a few children, and Lin Sha spent a comfortable Spring Festival in his small courtyard, although he didn't care much about being a little lonely alone.
The first month is the day of mutual New Year's greetings, Lin Sha has been running around since the beginning of the new year, greeting the patriarch in the city, the village elders and children, the clansmen with high seniority, and at the same time accepting the door-to-door New Year's greetings from peers and juniors.
In short, he was busy until the eighth day of the first month before he was a little free, and as soon as the Lantern Festival passed on the fifteenth day of the first month, he packed up his things and said goodbye to the patriarch and returned to Niujia Village to continue his study tour......
