Chapter 36: The Quarrel
The next day, the court meeting, the Jiangnan observation envoy who had been fighting for more than two months finally had a result, and Sun Huai, the former deputy observer of Jiangnan, was promoted to the Jiangnan observation envoy and took office on a later date, and the official residence was re-selected among the idle mansions in Yangzhou for renovation.
The official document of the appointment was sent by the officials, and it was sent to Yangzhou on the fourth day, which happened to be the day after Liu Pei received the appointment of Yangzhou Assassin.
The two major official positions in Jiangnan were implemented, and Lin Jiang and Lin Qingwan were both relieved.
Yangzhou Assassin Shi and Jiangnan Observation Envoy are their people, at least their aunt and nephew will have something to rely on in the future when they encounter trouble in Jiangnan.
Lin Jiang was so happy that he turned around twice on the spot, and finally looked at Lin Qingwan with blazing eyes and said, "What Bai Weng said is really right, you are the glimmer of life." ”
Things have changed a lot, and the dark clouds have not reappeared, which shows that this change is reasonable and recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
Bai Weng, who was standing in the corner with a calm face, lifted his eyelids and responded with a "cold snort".
Lin Jiang and Lin Qingwan turned their heads to look at him, and they both coughed lightly and lowered their heads and smiled.
Bai Weng was struck by lightning that night, and disappeared directly for three days before coming back, and then his face has been stinking, and he has not said a word recently, obviously because he doesn't want to unintentionally leak the secret of heaven again.
Although Lin Jiang had not yet recovered his memories of being an immortal, he also vaguely knew that the thunder slash would not damage Bai Weng, so he was not too worried.
Seeing that Lin Jiang was not worried, Lin Qingwan also let go after worrying for a while.
"Master, Miss, Lord Sun and Lord Liu are here." Shocked came in to report: "There are also the elders of the sect who have also come over, and the little one seems to be that the elders want to go back to Suzhou." ”
Lin Qingwan glanced at Lin Jiang and said with a smile: "There is a happy event today, let the kitchen prepare more delicious food, and we will celebrate in a while." Let the sect elders stay for two more days, and say that the patriarch of the Lin clan has not yet been decided. ”
As soon as the news that Sun Huai succeeded Lin Jiang as the Jiangnan observer came out, the entire Lin Mansion was in a sea of joy.
Because they all know that their master supports Sun Huai, although there are no rewards such as red envelopes, the food that night is much better.
Shang Mingyuan and Shang Mingjie were also very happy to be infected, and the two brothers happily followed Sun Huai and Liu Pei who came to the door to celebrate.
Steward Zhao saw a pain in his chest, and he couldn't wait to wake up the two sons, the one who failed was your uncle!
Shang Mingyuan is okay, it's not a kiss, it's understandable to be separated from the room, but Shang Mingjie is an uncle here, do you want to be so happy?
Shang Mingjie didn't think about it so much, he said that Sun Huai was indeed more suitable than his uncle to observe Jiangnan.
Even Sun Huai couldn't help but sigh that he had the style of Lin Jiang, only for the public, not for selfishness.
Lin Qingwan expressed reservations about this view, but Lin Jiang also smiled silently.
Compared with the happy atmosphere of the Lin family, Zhao Sheng was so angry that he smashed everything in his study, and the Zhao family's courtyard was in a mess.
In the end, he was tired and paralyzed before he stopped, and his eyes were red and said: "Big brother is right, Lin Jiang is a stumbling block to our Zhao family, and it is not good to run into him in anything." ”
The steward of the Zhao family stood aside with his neck curled.
Zhao Sheng gritted his teeth and asked, "When will Lin Jiang die?" ”
"It was their family's doctor Xu who treated Lord Lin, his mouth was very tight, and he didn't ask anything about it."
"Waste, didn't the Lin family invite other doctors before, no matter whether you are coerced or lured, in short, hurry up and get his pulse, I want to know when he will die, and when he will not stand in the way of our Zhao family!"
But the doctors invited by the Lin family for consultation are all famous doctors, and those doctors have a very big temper, how can they reveal Lin Jiang's condition?
Seeing Zhao Sheng's pale face, the steward of the Zhao family didn't dare to speak, so he could only retreat silently, forget it, let's delay it for a few days.
The news arrived in Yangzhou first, and then to Suzhou and Lingzhou.
Old Madam Shang only sighed regretfully when she heard this, and then she left it alone, but Second Mrs. Shang almost gritted her silver teeth, Lin Jiang did not recommend her brother in the end, but continued to support Sun Huai, really, I don't miss any relatives.
Zhao Jie, who was far away in Lingzhou, was silent for a long time after receiving the news, and finally silently burned Chen Shangshu's handwriting, picked up his sword and went out to practice martial arts.
He wasn t so anxious he didn t want his second brother to engage in tandem in jiangnan he planned to be in a coma and seriously ill from the spring he planned to slowly figure it out he was staring at the position of jiangnan observation envoy for a day or two and patience is.
And he still understands the present, and his identity is more advantageous than Sun Huai's taking over as Jiangnan Observer.
Lin Jiang died at that time, but he didn't expect that he would wake up again after being in a coma for three days, and he was so willing to sell all the Lin family's property like a crazy demon, and donated the money to the treasury.
The weight of the Lin family and Lin Jiang in the emperor's heart was already heavy, so it was even higher by a level, and if the other party weighed only three points, it became five points.
His recommendation of Sun Huai instantly became very advantageous.
Even if it was to appease his heart, in order to reward him for donating so much property, the emperor would seriously consider his recommendation.
Therefore, he had no choice but to try to win over officials from Jiangnan, hoping that they could influence the emperor's decision-making.
It's just that I didn't expect the timing to be wrong, and I happened to meet Lu Zhen visiting Lin Jiang in Yangzhou.
Zhao Jie's eyes deepened again, he always thought that Lu Zhen and Lin Jiang were not on good terms, after all, these two people have quarreled with each other over the years, and several times he heard Lu Zhen scolding Lin Jiang for being hypocritical, but he was a smiling tiger. Therefore, when he learned that Lu Zhen was ordered to go to Yangzhou to escort Qian Bao, he did not warn his second brother to restrain himself, and even he faintly hoped to cooperate with Lu Zhen.
But now it seems that he is "self-righteous", and it may be that Lu Zhen and Lin Jiang are disguised too well, he didn't expect Lu Zhen to help Lin Jiang and secretly give him eye medicine in front of His Majesty.
Zhao Jie's chest swelled with anger, and the sword in his hand slashed fiercely, directly splitting a wooden stake in front of him in half, and then he stopped with a calm face.
He has already been defeated, and what is worse is that Lu Zhenxian is on the opposite side of him, and his life in Lingzhou will definitely not be too easy in the future.
Zhao Jie almost vomited a mouthful of blood with hatred every time he thought of this, and he asked Chang Sui with a calm face, "When will Lin Jiang die?" ”
Chang Sui bowed his head and said nothing.
Zhao Jie sneered: "I have long said that my life will not be long, but I am not dead yet, and I have lived long enough." ”
But in fact, Lin Jiang really didn't have much time, and after handing over the work with Sun Huai and Liu Pei, Lin Jiang was bedridden.
The three sect elders who originally planned to return to Suzhou couldn't leave, so they could only stay and guard Lin Jiang.
While he was still sober, Lin Jiang proposed to take over the position of patriarch, and he proposed that Lin Run succeed him as patriarch.
As soon as the eighth uncle heard this, he immediately objected, "The sixth brother and our old ones are still there, Gorou is still too young and has not had enough experience." ”
Uncle Eleven, who also wanted to object, stopped speaking in an instant.
Lin Jiang said weakly: "Eighth uncle, I am not much older than Wulang, haven't I also been the patriarch for many years?" ”
"How is this the same?" The eighth uncle muttered in a low voice: "You are a grandson, and the patriarch is the ...... of your room 5."
If you didn't have a son, it wouldn't be our turn.
Lin Ba rolled his eyes and said, "It's better to call everyone to discuss when you return to the clan, the most important thing for you now is to recuperate." ”
Once in thousands of years, Lin Ba also wanted to compete for the position of the patriarch.
And even if he can't do it, it can be handed over to the sixth brother, but it must not be handed over to Lin Run.
The age of the sixth brother is here, he can't be the patriarch for a few years, and after he dies, the clan will definitely compete again, and then his sons and grandsons will have a chance.
But it would be different if Lin Run was to be replaced, he was in the prime of life, and he was not as short-lived as Lin Jiang, and if he was unlucky, he might be able to live for twenty or thirty years.
If he had been the patriarch for twenty or thirty years, then it would not be their house in the clan at that time? When the time comes, I am afraid that the patriarch will be passed directly to his son, not to mention his son, and even his grandson will not have to fight.
The eighth uncle was unwilling.
But Lin Jiang left them here just to think about a quick victory, and they didn't have to go through the clan anymore.
So he said: "I'm afraid that I don't have much time and won't be able to go back to Suzhou, so while I'm still selecting the patriarch's person, let me go with peace of mind." ”
The eighth uncle couldn't help pursing his lips and persuaded: "Erlang, don't think about it, you should still take care of your illness now, I see that your illness is because of thinking a lot, now that you have resigned, you can rest, don't say anything to let you go, the patriarch of the Lin clan is still up to you." ”
Lin Jiang looked at Lin Liu, "Sixth uncle, what do you say?" ”
The sixth uncle hesitated, of course he didn't have any opinion on his son as the patriarch, but wouldn't he be suspected of helping his relatives when he said it now?
So he silently bowed his head.
Lin Jiang smiled slightly, he had already expected this, he looked at Lin Shiyi, "What does Uncle Eleven think?" ”
Lin Shiyi thought about it and felt that even if he and his son were in the Hui clan, they didn't have a chance, and there were six brothers and Lin Run.
The prestige of the sixth brother in the clan is heavier than that of him and the eighth brother, and Lin Run is also the most outstanding son of the clan except for Lin Jiang.
The most important thing is that he must agree with the eighth child's objections, and he will be happy when he sees the other party jumping and getting angry.
So after Lin Shiyi pondered, he supported Lin Jiang seriously, "Erlang is right, now the clan does need individuals to deal with various affairs, I think Wulang is very suitable, let him be the patriarch." ”
"Fart, aren't we still in that clan, why do we have to change the patriarch now?"
Lin Shiyi's eyes sneered, "Brother Starling finally told the truth, you don't want Gorou to be the patriarch because you are reluctant to give up the power in your hands, are you planning to take the throne yourself?" ”
Lin Ba's face turned red, and he hurriedly looked at Lin Jiang and said, "Erlang, Eighth Uncle doesn't mean this, I think that choosing the patriarch is a big deal, and I have to go back and discuss it with the people in the clan." Old Eleven, don't frame me when you are empty, aren't you holding a grudge because I accidentally pushed you back then? ”
Lin Shiyi jumped to his feet and glared at him angrily, "Are you careless, you did it on purpose!" Don't think I don't know, you have a bad mind, and you deliberately hurt me in order to prevent me from taking the exam......"
"Fart, I'm going to hurt you, and you can still ask someone to pull you up? I'll just smash you down with a stone and let you sink into the river, pat your ass and leave, who knows? ”
"You finally told this sinister thought, didn't you just want to hit me with a stone in the first place, if I hadn't screamed loudly, would you have called someone to save me?"
Lin Jiang and Lin Liu couldn't help but support their foreheads, and the two of them started again.
Lin Qingwan watched in amazement as the two old men first blushed and quarreled, and then you slapped me, and I pinched you and beat you......
