Lin Jinglan returned to the Hou Mansion in the carriage, and saw that Lin Qingfeng was already waiting at the door.

After seeing Lin Jinglan get out of the car, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her steps.

"Shocking, I have something to say to you."

Looking at Lin Qingfeng's appearance, Lin Jinglan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"If the eldest brother has anything to say to me, just say it directly."

Lin Shuo followed Lin Jinglan's side, looking at Lin Qingfeng with vigilant eyes.

"Let's go to the study, there are some things I can only talk to you about."

glanced at Lin Shuo with disdain, there are some things that this wild species does not deserve to know.

"Big brother, do you want to talk about Lin Jiajun?"

However, Lin Jinglan smiled and asked directly.

This sentence made Lin Qingfeng stunned and made Lin Shuo's eyes widen.

Lin Jiajun, that is the capital of Dingbei Hou Mansion that has stood in Dachu for a hundred years.

"You.... You actually said such things directly, Lin Jinglan, you are so bold. ”

Lin Qingfeng choked, but he didn't expect Lin Jinglan to guess what he meant, and he said it directly.

"The Dingbei Hou Mansion is in charge of the 200,000 Lin family army in the north, and no one in Dachu knows what to hide."

Now the 200,000 Lin family army is still standing in the north, guarding the gate of Great Chu and preventing the incoming enemy from crossing half a point.

In fact, Lin Xiaotian returned to Beijing with his wife and children, and it was also a report on his work and a visit to relatives with the permission of His Majesty.

The time given by the emperor is only half a year, and Dingbei will return to the border and continue to defend the frontier.

After that, the next successor of the Lin family army will be determined, and then reported to His Majesty.

According to common sense, when Lin Xiaotian returned to the north, he slowly handed over the Lin family army to the heir little by little.

Everyone thinks that this person is Lin Qingfeng, and this is indeed the case in his previous life, and Lin Qingfeng is indeed the commander of the Lin family army after becoming Lin Xiaotian.

But there have been too many changes in this life, the war in the Western Territory has lasted for a long time, and Lin Xiaotian is now unconscious.

Even the order of the head of the family was given to Lin Shuo.

Lin Qingyun was beheaded, Lin Qingxue had no effect, and Mrs. Lin was also unconscious, one by one, it was difficult for Lin Qingfeng not to be in a hurry.

"Go back, in front of the door here, not when you say this."

Thinking of this, Lin Qingfeng glanced at Lin Shuo fiercely, how can this wild species be worthy of being in charge of the family's command.

"Big brother, I'm just the daughter of the Lin family, and I don't know when I'm going to get married, and I don't care much about the affairs of the family, if you have anything, just wait for your father to wake up."

smiled unconcernedly, and said so, Lin Jinglan turned around and left.

Lin Qingfeng was in a hurry, she knew, and what she wanted was that Lin Qingfeng was in a hurry.

Lin Shuo followed behind Lin Jinglan and walked inside, Lin Qingfeng wanted to step forward to stop him, but was blocked by Ziling Xiaoluo.

"Eldest Prince, please pay attention to some proportions."

So Lin Qingfeng could only watch Lin Jinglan leave, his face was blue with anger.

When he returned to the courtyard, Lin Shuo still didn't leave, but looked at her a little speechlessly.

Sitting down leisurely, Qiao Yan poured two cups of tea for them.

"Okay, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask, there's no one else here anyway."

Lin Shuo raised his eyes suddenly, then picked up the teacup and drank all the tea inside.

looked at Lin Jinglan seriously, in addition to admiration and admiration, there were also some doubts in his eyes.

"Sister, do you want me to replace my eldest brother and become the heir of the Dingbei Hou Mansion."

Lin Shuo's unpretentiousness, and his direct opening, made Lin Jinglan laugh unconsciously.

"yes."

I picked up the teacup, blew it, and said casually.

"Ahh

Lin Shuo was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened, looking at Lin Jinglan in disbelief, his mouth opened wide, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Since you already had a guess in your mind before, why are you so surprised at this time?"

Lin Jinglan still had that calm and faint smile.

Today's Lin Shuo is only over fifteen years old, will be sixteen, and is still a half-old teenager.

It's just that Lin Jinglan is mentally mature, and she almost forgets that she is actually only two years older than Lin Shuo.

Hearing Lin Jinglan's words, Lin Shuo smiled bitterly, with some helplessness and some trepidation on his face.

"Since I was a child, I have known that I am a son of the outer room who cannot be on the table, and my mother also tried to tell me to be cautious and careful in everything, it is enough to be safe in this life, don't ask too much, I am also used to seeing people in my own identity, even if I came because of your help, I returned to the Hou Mansion, but I was just a concubine."

The concubine, in the big family, has always been not reused, even if it is a talented concubine, as long as there is a concubine, it can only be a foil forever, no matter how much you do, it is not as good as an identity of the concubine.

Lin Shuo is not stupid, compared to Lin Qingfeng and Lin Qingyun's two elder brothers, Lin Shuo can be said to be very smart, but he has never been looked at by Lin Xiaotian before, because at that time he thought that he already had two sons who were good enough.

As for Lin Shuo, because of Aunt Jiang, if she is in a good mood, she will take a second look, and if she is in a bad mood, she will not even bother to look at it.

I vaguely guessed Lin Jinglan's thoughts before, but I didn't explain it all the time.

Now that he has received Lin Jinglan's definite answer, there is not much joy, but panic.

The heir of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, the future Dingbei Hou, will support the rise and fall of the entire Lin family, which is not a simple matter.

"You're scared."

Lin Jinglan looked at Lin Shuo and asked softly.

Hearing Lin Jinglan's words, Lin Shuo also raised his head, looked at her very seriously, and nodded slowly.

"Yes, Sister, I'm afraid."

It was because Lin Shuo was very smart, so the first thing he thought of was not the glorious status after becoming the heir of the Dingbei Marquis Mansion.

Thinking about it is the danger and responsibility that comes with it.

So he was afraid.

"It's right to be afraid, after all, if you want to become the heir of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, you have to face not only the eldest brother, but also the father, the elders of the clan, as well as the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the hostile forces of the Hou Mansion and many, many things."

Lin Jinglan said the difficulties and dangers of this matter in a few simple words.

After finishing speaking, he paused for a while, and then looked at Lin Shuo slowly, his eyes were extremely serious.

"Lin Shuo, I will give you a choice, you also have to answer seriously, if you want to become the heir of the Hou Mansion, inherit the Hou Mansion in the future, and shine on the lintel, it is a very difficult and dangerous thing, but if you succeed, it will also make you change your fate, add glory and have a stable position."

"If you want, I will help you, if you don't want to, I will also keep you safe, at least be a rich son, and then answer me if you think about it."
