Two o'clock in the second half of the night.

The rain stopped, and the moon stars were scarce.

In front of the Lin Mansion, there was a lot of traffic.

Zhen Yingjia is a smart person, but the major salt merchants are not stupid, Zhen Yingjia wants to sell the major salt merchants to save his life, and the major salt merchants also want to sell the Zhen family to survive.

They don't have that much enmity with Lin Ruhai.

It is to make trouble, make stumbling blocks, and engage in small means, all of which are led by the Zhen family, a nest of snakes and rats, and Lin Ruhai exterminated the Cao gang and caught the evidence, since the catastrophe is coming, they fly separately, who cares about the life and death of others.

Throughout the ages, there have been many sellers seeking glory, and it is not incomprehensible that these salt merchants are only trying to survive.

Moreover, doesn't the Zhen family also want to sell these salt merchants in order to survive?

It's all 50 steps and 100 steps of laughter.

No one is better than the other.

It stands to reason that when the major salt merchants get together, they all have the idea of "betraying others to protect themselves", they must not speculate for more than half a sentence, ridicule each other, and even use their hands and feet, but now, Lin Ruhai, the salt patrol royal history, has grasped the weakness of all of them, and if they dare to make trouble, this is not just to make up the list of "killing chickens and monkeys" for Lin Ruhai!

Lin Ruhai must be worried about who will kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys!

Therefore, not only did the Zhen family not dare to make trouble, but even the major salt merchants who came with the purpose of betraying others did not dare to make trouble in front of this Lin Mansion.

The whole old butler was in a trance.

seems to have seen the scene when Lin Ruhai took office, these salt merchants wanted to buy Lin Ruhai, and they were busy and visited Lin's mansion.

It's just that Lin Ruhai didn't let him receive these people.

Sure enough.

As Lin Ruhai expected.

Lin Chaoci and Huang Rong came from a distance.

Huang Rong was still holding a string of sugar gourds in her hand.

I don't know where I bought it in the middle of the night.

The old butler's face suddenly turned into a flower, which made the surrounding salt merchants puzzled, and hurriedly went down the steps, pushing away the salt merchants who were blocking the way, and then, trotted to Lin Chao's resignation, with a respectful attitude: "Childe, the lord has already set up a banquet in the mansion, I hope that the prince and this young lady will appreciate the light, and also, the lord asked me to show you on his behalf, the previous incident, it was indeed his lack of consideration, Childe, you are right, I don't know what the son and this young lady think?" ”

Huang Rong trembled.

Is this the big shot?

The fate of thousands of people is sloppy.

She was far away, smelling the blood, she was a little nauseous and trembling, fortunately she had seen blood, and she still had a certain resistance, but this mere salt patrol imperial history, after going to the scene, had the heart to set up a banquet to entertain Lin Chaoci and her, this is sure to be a civil official and not a military general?

Zhen Yingjia and the major salt merchants also heard it.

Raising his eyes, he felt a chill down his spine inexplicably.

They didn't dare to shout, and they didn't even dare to mention protesting.

Right now, they're grandchildren.

Maybe Lin Ruhai just wants to make an example of the monkey?

The concept of fishing law enforcement has been around for a long time.

It's just that this word has never been true.

Lin Chaoci turned his head and put a tentative gaze on Huang Rong, Huang Rong is also a girl who likes to be lively, and nodded at Lin Chaoci's gaze.

"Then please."

After Lin Chaoci received Huang Rong's answer.

Raising his hand, he motioned for the old butler to go first.

He was going to go back to the Lin Mansion, not to go to the banquet, but to give Lin Daiyu an explanation, saying that what I promised you has been completed, and this promise is invalid, I hope you know about this matter.

Lin Ruhai's banquet can only be regarded as a small episode.

He can go if he wants, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to go.

Anyway, the relationship between the two families is not far away, Lin Ruhai's wife's sister-in-law is the sister of Xue Baochai's mother, and he is Xue Baochai's fiancé, it can't be said that he is not a relative, but it can only be said that the relationship is very weak.

Since Huang Rong wants to go, it's better to go.

The old housekeeper was also prepared to be rejected, and when he heard Lin Chaoci agree, he was overjoyed, knowing who brought his master's scenery today, so he hurriedly bowed down and led the way.

When I opened the door, I didn't even look at the salt merchants.

didn't even look at Zhen Yingjia.

After sending Lin Chaoci inside, he returned to the door.

With a cold face, he said that I had accepted the greetings of you people, and I sent the little maid to show the master, and I was still waiting for the master to reply.

If you allow it, you can go in.

Not allowed, then wait.

I hope you don't worry.

I really can't do it, go home and wait for tomorrow.

The old man's body is not good.

Isn't it normal to have a night's rest?

When Zhen Yingjia and the major salt merchants heard this, they almost wanted to spit on this old thing, it wasn't you who died, of course you are not in a hurry, the other salt merchants are here, in case I go back, your master wants to change the hexagram, and suddenly receives it again, the ghost knows that other salt merchants will not sell me!

Wait!

Even if it is tomorrow dawn, we will wait!

Wait until Lin Ruhai is willing to see them!

This is a matter of life and death, and there is no room for sloppiness!

And inside the Lin Mansion.

in the backyard.

A family feast has already begun.

There are not many people, only five - Lin Ruhai, Lin Daiyu, Lin Chaoci, Zijuan and Xiao Huang Rong who eats and drinks, but without exception, they are all people worthy of trust, even Huang Rong is the same.

Lin Daiyu was a little tired.

More tired than her is Lin Ruhai.

However, Lin Ruhai expected that Lin Chaoci would definitely find Lin Daiyu to explain the details and explain clearly after the incident, so he was tired and entertained Lin Chaoci.

There was a bottle of Qionghua Dew on the table.

This is a famous wine in Yangzhou.

Since the Song Dynasty, it has been praised by literati and writers.

Lin Chaoci tasted it and felt good.

Sweet in the mouth, not spicy.

Even Lin Daiyu drank a small glass, which shows that the quality of this wine is really good.

The wine is good, and the food is not bad.

Yangzhou cuisine is the birthplace of Huaiyang cuisine, the most test of the knife skills of the "Wensi tofu" is Huaiyang cuisine, Lin Ruhai as a patrol salt imperial history, power and financial resources are not ordinary officials can compare, today's table naturally has this famous dish, in addition to the more famous Yangzhou fried rice is not there, the rest have everything, talk about Lin Ruhai's sincerity.

The ancients set a lot of rules for daily life.

Eating silently, sleeping silently, is one of the rules.

It's just that Lin Ruhai is not a rotten Confucian, and he also has a correct understanding of this rule, not not when he eats, but when he has food in his mouth, this is the original intention of Confucius when he wrote the Analects.

And, the banquet is the time to chat.

It is good to talk about things at the wine table, this is a concept since ancient times.

"Virtuous Nephew ......"

Lin Ruhai changed his name again.

As soon as Lin Chaoci heard it, he knew what Lin Ruhai wanted to do.

Lin Ruhai was also like a mirror in his heart, smiled, and said tentatively: "There is such a terrifying worldly martial arts, the future is unlimited, when the saint is upright in employing people, he is also ready to use troops at the border pass, and the virtuous nephew doesn't want to contribute something to the country and the people, and repeatedly make meritorious contributions, and fight for a glory and wealth for future generations?" ”

"Not at the thought of that."

Lin Chaoci waved his hand, and said excitedly: "Since Uncle Lin Shici asks me sincerely, then I will tell you the truth to Uncle Lin Shishu - congenital can live a hundred years without disease and disaster, grandmasters and great masters have a long lifespan, and land immortals can sit back and watch the rise and fall of the dynasty, just like those land immortals have few heirs and descendants, some are just born before those land immortals become grandmasters and great grandmasters, and there is a high probability that there will be no in the future, when a person lives long enough, he will understand that many things in this world are virtual, Even if there are really descendants, those who have that ability, can lay glory and wealth without you, and those who don't have that ability, with you, can't keep the glory and wealth. ”

As he spoke, he turned the conversation and said with a smile: "I don't have any ambitions, it's just that not everyone can pinch a soft persimmon, if the emperors of the Later Han Dynasty are all smart people, then everyone will not violate the river water, if the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty is an iron-blooded emperor who can't tolerate sand in his eyes, then he will have a short life." ”

Lin Chaoci pointed to the sky, and then, put down his hand, put a lion's head in his mouth, chewed it twice, and after a satisfied face, he smiled and said: "It is said that it is the Son of Heaven, but it is a person who wants to be someone else's son, whether others are willing to accept this godson is not certain, even if he accepts it, it must be two treatments with his own son, if he can, please trouble Uncle Lin Shi to bring a message to that person, which means, I know all the he did with the Sun and Moon God Sect, Xue family, I cover it, I hope he won't make me any trouble, and I, I also need him to give me an explanation for this misunderstanding. ”

Ask for collections, ask for comments.
