Chapter Eighty-Nine: Exercise

Lin Tao rarely went to accompany the concubine today, but appreciated the calligraphy and paintings given to him by Lin Jia in the outer study.

After listening to Ah Qing's narration, he immediately rushed over with a few cronies.

At this time, the night wind gradually rose, and the lanterns hanging under the corridor of the west wing were swaying in the wind, and under the miserable white light, the scene inside and outside the west wing was extremely miserable: because of Ah Lan's shot, the west wing was full of snake corpses; The water thorn and the willow were so frightened that they shrank under the steps and shivered; The peach's skin was blue, and the seven orifices were bleeding under the corpse corridor.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Rao is Lin Tao was well-informed, and he was also a little frightened.

Lin Jia waited for his father to see it, and then ordered Ah Lan: "Go and see if there is a purple sachet under the bed of Peach!"

Lin Tao listened, and raised his eyebrows to look at Lin Jia.

Lin Jia was not afraid to meet his father's gaze, and his long eyes, which were very similar to Lin Tao, were clear and pure.

Ah Lan replied "yes", carefully avoided the snake corpse and entered the west wing, and soon came out with a purple sachet with a silver hairpin.

Lin Tao looked at the dusty sachet and looked at Lin Jia with slightly squinted eyes.

Lin Jia said in a deep voice: "Daddy, go to the inner study and talk about it!"

With that, he glanced at Yu Yu.

Yu Yu bowed slightly, signaling that she understood.

Lin Tao followed Lin Jia to the inner study, and Yu Yu and Ah Lan, who was carrying a purple sachet, followed.

Lin Jia asked Lin Tao to sit on the treasure chair behind the bookcase, stood there by himself, and told the cause and effect of the matter.

Yu Yu also said what she saw and what she did.

Lin Tao sat there quietly and didn't speak for a long time.

Although Lin Jia had no direct evidence, Lin Tao knew that it was indeed Princess Li who did it, because Princess Li had done similar things many times, and this time it was the same, if he ordered someone to track it down, he would definitely find out about Princess Li.

But he didn't want to touch Princess Li, this was his wife, his cousin, the woman he once really liked, and the biological mother of his third son Lin Yi.

What's more, now that the Li family is powerful, Princess Li's own brother Li Qingze is the favored minister of the Son of Heaven in the Ministry of War, as a county king who is suspicious of the Son of Heaven, he is not willing to easily grudge with the Li family because of Princess Li.

After a long time, Lin Tao looked at Lin Jia: "Ajia, what do you want, say it, Daddy will try his best to satisfy you!"

After listening to Lin Tao's words, Lin Jia's expression did not change, but his face became pale - every time Princess Li harmed him, he would find clear evidence and go to see his father.

In fact, he knew that with his own strength, it would be difficult to shake Princess Li, he just wanted to find father's love in this father because he had no maternal love.

But his father always said, "Ajia, if you have any requests, say it, Daddy will try his best to satisfy you", and then gently let Princess Li go.

Seeing that Lin Tao's face was so white that it was about to be transparent, a layer of mist floated in Xiuchang's eyes, and he was obviously angry to the extreme, but there was no way to do it, Yu Yu's heart was sour, and his eyes were a little moist.

She quietly clenched her fists - Lin Jia and her must be strong!

Seeing his son's tears, Lin Tao's eyes became cold, and he glanced at Ah Lan and Yu Yu.

Lin Jia is extremely smart and very good at observing words and feelings, and immediately said: "Father, they are all my cronies!"

Lin Tao nodded, and then suppressed his voice and said, "Ajia, you have to remember that being born in the royal family has always been so cruel. Now Princess Li wants to harm you because you are blocking her and Lin Yi's way, if you are really killed by her, it means that you are incompetent. As long as Your Majesty values you, there will be more people who want you to die in the future, and if you want to stand out and get to that highest position, you have to deal with all this yourself, instead of being like a nursing child, asking me for help when something happens! ”

Lin Jia's eyes gradually calmed down, lowered his eyes, and said, "I know." Thank you for my father's admonition. ”

He raised his eyes and looked at Lin Tao: "Father, the Zhizhou Yamen is busy with official business, and the county king's mansion is quite far away, so it is inconvenient to come and go, and my son wants to move to live near the Yamen."

Lin Jia knew that Lin Tao would not agree to him to move out, because it did not conform to the illusion of family harmony between father and son that he had always maintained.

All he has to do is sit on the ground and pay back the money.

Lin Tao saw that Lin Jia had succumbed, and his expression suddenly relaxed: "I'm still alive, what kind of family!" In this way, there is a Qinglian Courtyard in the southeast corner of the palace, which is just facing the street, and you can open a door in the east or south after you move in, and it will be easier to enter and exit in the future. ”

Lin Jia's purpose was exactly this, and when he saw that Lin Tao agreed, he replied "yes".

Speaking of this, Lin Tao's purpose has been achieved, Lin Jia's purpose has also been achieved, the father and son have nothing to say, and the room suddenly fell silent.

Lin Jia said lightly: "Father, I'll send you back!"

Lin Tao walked out of Cuiweiju with his hands in his hand, and Lin Jia followed him half a step later.

All the relatives knew that the prince still had something to say to the second son, and they all followed far behind.

With the halo of lanterns on the nearby trees, Lin Tao glanced at Lin Jia, and seeing that Lin Jia had regained his composure, he nodded approvingly.

He is destined to stay in Qingzhou, a small place in the middle of the courtyard, but as his son, Lin Jia has to step by step to the most noble position in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

And only when Lin Jia ascends to that position, it is possible for him, who is a father, to really get out of Qingzhou, go to the capital, and even become a ...... The Emperor!

It was precisely because he had too many expectations for Lin Jia that he would operate Lin Jia to the most chaotic Zhao County in Qingzhou, and arrange Lin Jia to the position of Qingzhou General Judge.

He wants to train Lin Jia through these most difficult places to govern, so that he can grow into a real man.

What he Lin Tao couldn't do, he asked Lin Jia to do.

If you can't do it or are killed, it is because Lin Jia is incompetent and has nothing to do with people.

His son can only be a wolf, not a sheep.

Thinking of this, Lin Tao looked at Lin Jia: "Go back, you have to go to Yamen early tomorrow morning!"

Lin Jia replied "yes", bowed, and turned to leave.

Lin Tao stood there quietly, looking at Lin Jia's back until Lin Jia's figure disappeared into the lush flowers and trees.

His cronie Liu Zhu said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, do you want to go back to the study now?"

Lin Tao said lightly: "Put away that purple sachet, I'm going to see my princess."

Liu Zhu knew his own prince best, and knew that he looked at Yun Danfeng and was greedy and lustful, in fact, he had a strong desire to control, and he was most annoyed that others did not follow his rules, so after listening to Lin Tao's words, he couldn't help but shiver and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, the small ones must be put away."

Princess Li had already fallen asleep, and when she heard Sydney's report that the prince was coming, she was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly ordered: "Sydney, let's see if my evening makeup is okay!"

Before Sydney could answer, Lin Tao's clear voice came from outside: "In my eyes, my princess must be the most perfect!"

Princess Li hadn't heard Lin Tao laugh with herself for a long time, so she immediately lifted the embroidered quilt with a red face and got out of bed, got up to greet Lin Tao.

Lin Tao grabbed Princess Li's still slender waist, smiled slightly, and said, "Princess, you are so beautiful, sit on the bed, I'll give you a small portrait!"

Princess Li listened, although she felt that it seemed strange to draw a small portrait in the middle of the night, but Lin Tao often had whims and did some strange things, so she smiled and agreed.

Lin Tao is a famous painter in the Great Zhou, and it is rare to agree to paint a small portrait of someone in his spare time, but now he actually took the initiative to propose, and Princess Li is a little overjoyed.

She took advantage of Lin Tao's instructions to prepare painting tools, got up and changed into a newly made beautiful dress, sat on the edge of the bed, and waited for Lin Tao to paint.

Lin Tao sat on the brocade couch in front of the bed, and the painting tools were placed on the red sandalwood small kang table.

He stared at Princess Li for a moment of appreciation, and smiled slightly: "It seems that there is something missing!"

Princess Li sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Lin Tao with affection in her eyes, and smiled charmingly.

Lin Tao clapped his hands, took out a purple sachet from his sleeve pocket, got off the brocade couch, walked to Princess Li with a smile, and looked at Princess Li's eyes: "Yongjie, this sachet matches the color of your clothes very well, just hang it on your waist!"

Princess Li looked at this purple sachet, the more she looked at it, the more familiar she became, her heartbeat became faster and faster, her face became whiter and whiter, and a few cold sweats flowed down her forehead - this is the sachet prepared by her mother, which contains snake incense from overseas, which can make snakes in estrus gather and hurt people!

Looking at Princess Li's appearance, Lin Tao's smile became brighter and brighter, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he bent down to tie Princess Li's belt in person, and specially tied a perfect bow.

After doing this, he got up and admired for a moment, walked back to the brocade couch with a smile, sat down, and began to paint slowly.

Princess Li sat stiffly on the edge of the bed, the small clothes she wore inside were already soaked with sweat, her whole body was cold, and her hands and feet couldn't control her trembling.

Lin Tao took the paintbrush and focused on painting, and saw a few snakes winding from nowhere, swimming towards Princess Li, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he drew faster.

Princess Li couldn't bear it anymore, jumped off the bed crying, dodged the snakes, and jumped up on the edge of the brocade couch: "Lord, I don't dare to harm Lin Jia anymore!" Please, Lord! ”

Lin Tao stared into her eyes: "You only have this one chance, are you sure?"

Princess Li looked back at the snake that had swam towards her, and immediately screamed: "Ahhh I'm sure, lord! ”

Lin Tao took a long time: "Who gave you the medicine?" Who arranged this? ”

Princess Li trembled, looked back at the snake that was getting closer and closer, and screamed: "It's the horse female doctor!" It's Sue Mom! ”

Lin Tao chuckled, reached out and untied the purple sachet on Princess Li's belt, pushed open the window and threw it out, and then instructed Liu Song and Liu Zhu, who were standing outside the window: "Gather all the subordinates of the palace to come to Hongxi Courtyard, pass on my words, Ma Female Doctor Su Pozi instigated the master, killed people, and died in public!"

Liu Song and Liu Zhu replied "yes" and went to implement it.

Princess Li leaned on Lin Tao's arms, listening to the dull "poof" sound of the torture rod hitting the person outside, and her heart was like ashes.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Song came over to report: "Lord Wang, the horse female doctor Su Pozi has been killed with a cane, and the snakes have also been dealt with!"

Lin Tao heard this and pushed Princess Li away: "My princess, I'm tired, you should go to bed early!"

With that, he got up and Shi Shiran left.

Princess Li fell on the brocade couch and cried bitterly for a while.
