PS: A new volume, write something different, I hope you like it

June of the first year of the Southern Song Dynasty

The drizzle is still misty, and a small village on the edge of Taihu Lake in Suzhou is shrouded in this misty mist, looming like a dream.

The village is not large, there are twenty or thirty families, all of which are composed of the Lin family surnamed Lin, a side branch of the Suzhou clan, and the farming and reading heirlooms are simple and famous.

The village that has always been calm and tranquil had a major incident two days ago, and Lin Wu, an old talent who had lived in widowhood for many years, suddenly brought back a full-age baby from outside, named it Lin Sha, and also recorded it in the family tree, as the only direct descendant of his lineage.

This is a big deal for the Lin clan, and the elders and leaders in the village were alarmed, and gathered at Lin Wuxiucai's house to interrogate and persuade him not to act rashly.

The origin of the child is very simple, Lin Wuxiu picked it up on the sand by Taihu Lake, and there are no accessories on him to prove his background, or letters or anything.

Lin Wu felt that he was in love with this child, and when he first saw the child, the little guy also happened to open a pair of black and white eyes, and smiled toothlessly at him.

At that time, his heart was shaken, love was overflowing, and the idea of adoption was also good, and after a hundred years, there was a crying person who fell into the basin, so as not to end up in a bleak end.

The clan elders and the leading figures in the village don't see it that way, they think that this child has a strange origin or it is better to be careful, Lin Wu wants to raise the child and choose from the clan, why bother to take this risk?

Lin Wu seemed to have eaten the scales and was iron-hearted, so he only said that he was very close to the child he brought back, so he chose this little doll. As for raising the clansmen from the clan, he is not at ease. Who knows if the child will be closer to his biological parents or his adoptive father after he is raised?

The clan elder and the leading figures in the village couldn't, and persuaded Lin Wu to temporarily extinguish the idea of recording the child in the family tree. It's not too late to wait until the child is older to see his temperament.

Lin Wu didn't give an inch, no matter how he said it, he passed the Suzhou Prefecture Liberation Test. The serious boy who has registered in the official school case has seen the world and experienced the hot and cold world, and he doesn't know what calculations the clan elders and the leading figures in the village have in their hearts, but they are just a temporary plan to delay the army.

"When the child is young, he does not go to the family tree, and when he is older and sensible, he will remember it, how will the child feel in his heart?"

As a result, the matter was deadlocked, and neither Lin Wu nor the group elder could convince the other party, and at this time, there was still half a year to worship the ancestors at the end of the year. Enough for them to slowly deliberate and plan.

As if aware of the danger, the little baby Lin Sha showed enough intelligence and talent to the villagers of Lin Village in the second half of the year and six months.

Within two days of the clan elder coming to the door, he was staggering and able to walk on his own, and after three months, he was able to run around in the simple courtyard of Lin Wu's family.

Before worshipping the ancestors at the end of the year, under the careful teaching of Lin Wu, he was able to recite the entire "Three Character Classic" with unclear words!

At this time, not only Lin Village was shaken, but even the clan descendants had heard about it, and the patriarch in Suzhou City even personally inquired to express his concern, and Lin Sha's joining the Lin clan was suddenly unhindered.

The Lin family was originally a scholarly family. The most important thing is to value the children who have the talent to read, and now Lin Sha has shown a very high talent in reading, no matter how to get into the clan first.

In this way, Lin Sha's little pot friends were worshipping their ancestors during the New Year. The name was solemnly recorded by the patriarch after Lin Wu, and he became a side member of the Lin clan.

And Lin Sha did not live up to the Lin clan's expectations of him.

At the age of one and a half, he memorized the Song Dynasty children's enlightenment book "Three Character Classic". When he was three years old, he could recite "Hundred Family Names" proficiently, and when he was five years old, he also firmly remembered "Thousand Words"!

If it weren't for his adoptive father Lin Wu who kept pressing, he was afraid that he would use his brain too much and damage his body. I am afraid that when Lin Sha is three years old, he will be able to completely recite the children's enlightenment book 'Three Hundred Thousand', which is the case, and the people of Lin Village all praise Lin Sha's talent and appearance. The name of his prodigy is recited far and wide.

Several times at the end of the year, Lin Wu and Lin Sha father and son were personally named and praised by the patriarch, which also caused a lot of sensation within the clan, and the status of the two fathers and sons in the clan rose sharply.

The treatment enjoyed by the prodigy is really not too good, in addition to the serious work of reading, Lin Sha's children do something other out of the ordinary, not only will not be criticized but also get all kinds of tolerance and understanding, so that other children of the same age and even older half-adult teenagers are envious and jealous.

For example, he gets up early in the morning every day, punches and breathes in the small courtyard, and when he is seen by the villagers, he praises him for knowing that he is healthy at a young age, and he is not tired of studying after having a good body.

Although Lin Wu was surprised, he didn't ask too much, he just thought that his adopted son Lin Sha was just following the cat and painting the tiger, learning from those Jianghu martial artists to toss around, and thinking the same as the clansmen next to him, as long as it does not affect his study and progress, it is naturally better to have a strong physique.

But neither the clansmen nor Lin Wu knew that Lin Sha's boxing techniques and horse steps were very different from ordinary Jianghu martial artists. It's not that he learned from the hands of the martial artists of the rivers and lakes, but he naturally has such a memory in his mind, because this thing is too magical, although he is still young, he also knows that he can't talk indiscriminately to attract attention.

Because he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and there is no shortage of food and rice in the clan, he has grown stronger and taller than his peers at a young age. After the age of five, he enrolled in the village private school, and was taken care of by his husband, and he lived up to his expectations, and in just three years, he was familiar with the Four Classics.

He showed an amazing talent in reading, and even once alarmed the patriarch of Suzhou, and was often called to listen to the teachings of the Confucian patriarch, and repeatedly warned him to guard against arrogance and impatience, not to be arrogant, to know that there are people outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky, and his ability is far from being good.

Lin Sha's children nodded again and again, his temperament is surprisingly calm, never because of others' praise and complacency, nor will he be slandered by others and irritable, since he was a child, a gentleman is frank and open-minded, and he is very happy to make the clansmen surprised, and he attaches more importance to it.

Because he showed a calm general style at a young age, and his mouth was also solid and reliable, so from the age of five, the middle and senior members of the clan deliberately cultivated his pragmatic ability, and when dealing with many unimportant clan affairs, they would call Lin Sha to learn and not shy away at all.

Therefore, don't look at Lin Sha's young age, he knows the outside world no worse than the ordinary people in the city.

During the Qing Yuan period of the Southern Song Dynasty, Emperor Song honored Yue Fei as the king of Hubei, abolished all the knighthoods and rewards on Qin Yu, appointed Zhao Ruyu and Han Yanxuan as ministers, and adopted a tough posture against the Jin State, and the relationship between Song and Jin began to become tense.

At this time, Han Yanxuan was the dominant party in the court, and all officials who wanted to make a difference in the court had to join their camp to obtain promotion qualifications.

Of course, these major events in the court are still far away from Lin Sha's small pot friends, and the Lin family's generations of scholars are naturally indispensable to the generations of eunuchs, which is also the heritage of the Lin family that has maintained the Suzhou family since the Song Dynasty moved south.

Not to mention it, he was more interested in the internal affairs of the Lin family.

There are only two brothers left in the Suzhou Lin clan to this lineage, and the rest are the collateral clansmen who have come out of the five suits, including the Lin clan in the entire Lin Village.

Through the gossip of those broken-mouthed aunts, what surprised Lin Sha was that a scholarly family like the Lin family actually produced a chivalrous girl named Lin Chaoying!

You must know that the scholars of the Song Dynasty were naturally disgusted with martial artists, not to mention the people in the rivers and lakes with a lower status.

It's really hard to imagine that a scholarly family like the Lin family in Suzhou will still have people from the rivers and lakes, and it is the much-loved Miss Yanzhi who devotes herself to the rivers and lakes!

The fire of gossip in Lin Sha's heart was burning, but unfortunately this matter seemed to be an absolute taboo for the rank of heir, and the clansmen usually didn't dare to say it at all, and the news he could hear was only a few words from a broken mouth.

It took a year and a half to collect and sort it out, and he roughly understood the situation of this young lady.

Lin Chaoying is the sister of the current patriarch of the Lin clan, who has been intelligent and talented since childhood, and was accepted as a closed disciple by the Jianghu strangers who lived in seclusion in Taihu Lake at a young age.

Because at that time, the Song State and the Jin State were still fighting in the north, the flames of war were continuous, and the land south of the Yangtze River was facing the threat of the Jin State at any time, and the Lin family was in danger of overturning at any time.

Lin Chaoying is indeed extraordinary, he learned a very powerful martial arts at a young age, and then roamed the rivers and lakes without the old patriarch of the Lin clan knowing, hoeing evil and pulling out the traitorous name in the rivers and lakes and Wang Zhe, the anti-gold righteous warrior in the north, and being called 'North King Nanlin' by the people in the rivers and lakes!

Later, for some reason, Lin Chaoying and Wang Zhe met and fell in love, and the two joined forces to fight against gold and spread the next good story in the rivers and lakes. But when the news reached the ears of the old patriarch of the Lin family, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he was suddenly so angry that he was like thunder, and he urgently ordered Lin Chaoying to return home and not be allowed to wander on the rivers and lakes again.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chaoying was also a stubborn temper, and decided that Wang Zhe would not marry, not only ignored his father's strict orders, but also followed Wang Zhe to live in seclusion in Zhongnanshan after the failure of the anti-gold resistance.

The old patriarch of the Lin family was angry for a while and took the lead in softening, how can he say that Lin Chaoying is his only concubine, and finally reluctantly said that it is okay for her to be with Wang Zhe, but Wang Zhe must go through the normal procedures to marry the Lin family's concubine, otherwise will the other daughters of the Lin family marry after the private compartment is granted?

As a result, what was waiting for was Wang Zhe who became a Taoist priest, and set himself not to marry from now on, Lin Chaoying was unwilling to give up his lover and live in seclusion in the tomb of the living dead in Zhongnan Mountain.

After several letters to no avail, the old patriarch of the Lin family finally gave up opening the ancestral hall in person, and removed Lin Chaoying from the family tree with trembling hands, and it didn't take long for the old patriarch to die of depression.

Since then, the Lin family in Suzhou has completely cut off contact with Lin Chaoying, and even the funeral of the old patriarch has not notified Lin Chaoying, who is far away in Zhongnan Mountain...... (To be continued......)
