The poison on his body was resolved, and he saw his daughter who had been thinking about him for many years, Lin Ruhai's current state is indeed very good.

I don't dare to say that my face is full of red light, but at least my spirit looks very good, and I don't have the near-death state that I was about to die at any time.

"Song Xuan, I've seen my cousin!"

Entering the room, Song Xuan hugged his fists and bowed.

"This time, I'm tired of your brothers and sisters, our father and daughter owe you a great favor."

Song Xuan waved his hand and smiled: "It's all a family, and it's polite for my cousin to say this." ”

Lin Ruhai looked at him with a complicated expression, "When your mother got married, I was busy with the imperial examination and couldn't catch up with her to get married, how is she doing in the Song family?" ”

Song Xuan said: "Cousin, rest assured, everything is fine with my mother, and there is no need to worry about it." ”

Lin Ruhai said with a smile: "My Lin family is not prosperous, even if you count the side branches, the population is not large, although your mother and I have already come out of the five suits, but we have known each other since childhood."

She's doing well, so I'm relieved.

By the way, is your father okay too? Is it still the same as before, messing around in the Xuanyi guard all day long? ”

Song Xuan was a little surprised, "My cousin is very familiar with my father?" ”

Lin Ruhai nodded with a smile, "When your father was young, he was a famous bastard in the Imperial Capital Xuanyi Guard, he could hide when he encountered errands, and he could slip away when he was in trouble, and he didn't have any ambition at all."

At that time, I thought he didn't have the vitality of a young man, and I looked down on him a little.

But now it seems that your father still lives a transparent life, there are no dangers, no illnesses and no disasters all his life, and the family is reunited safely, isn't it more important than anything else? ”

Song Xuan smiled and didn't answer, after all, it involved his parents, and he didn't want to talk too much about this matter with outsiders.

"I heard Daiyu say, your brother and sister are coming to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansion to take up their posts this time?"

Song Xuan nodded, "Yes, some time ago, a hundred households died here, and the imperial capital transferred me over." ”

When Lin Ruhai heard this, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and said: "The situation here in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is very complicated, and it is not easy for those salt merchants to deal with alone.

And Xuan Yiwei has to deal with not only some big salt merchants and other huge riches, but also a lot of officialdom and people in the rivers and lakes. ”

Lin Ruhai said more subtlely, but Song Xuan understood what he wanted to express at once.

"My cousin is saying that here in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansions, officialdom and rivers and lakes have colluded?"

Lin Ruhai said: "There must be collusion, as for the extent of collusion and what the real purpose is, it is difficult to say for the time being."

In short, during this time, you must be cautious, if you don't understand anything, you can always come to me for reference.

To tell you the truth, I really didn't expect your father to agree to you coming to such a place. ”

Song Xuan smiled, "Cousin, this is an order from the upper echelons of Xuan Yiwei, even if my father disagrees, what can he do?" ”

Lin Ruhai shook his head, "Don't underestimate your father, although he doesn't seem to be motivated, his connections in the imperial capital are not weak, if he doesn't agree with your brothers and sisters coming here, there is a way to mess up this appointment." ”

Song Xuan was slightly stunned, his own father was in the eyes of him and Song Qian, that is, the cultivation of the eighth level of the Acquired Realm, which was weaker than their brother and sister.

In addition to being older and having a good relationship with Zhao Dezhu, director of the Inspection Department, there are other connections?

If others say so, he may only regard it as an outsider's flattery and politeness to his father, but Lin Ruhai and other local officials attach so much importance to their father, so it is definitely not just as simple as being polite.

Could it be that Daddy still has a hidden identity that he doesn't know?

After chatting with Lin Ruhai about the situation in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mansions, Song Xuan got up and said goodbye.

He still has a lot of things to do next, and Lin Ruhai also needs to recuperate for a period of time, so it is inconvenient to talk to outsiders for a long time.

Walking out of the door, Song Xuan waited in the courtyard for a while.

Not long after, the little cousin Lin Daiyu, who was in a very good mood, and Song Qian were holding a piece of osmanthus cake in their hands, talking and laughing all the way.

Seeing Song Xuan's figure, the little cousin's eyes smiled like a crescent moon, and she hurriedly picked up the osmanthus cake in the handkerchief and handed it to Song Xuan.

"Cousin, if you're hungry, eat some pastries to cushion your stomach first, I've already ordered someone to cook."

Song Xuan subconsciously prepared to stretch out his hand, but looking at the osmanthus cake that Song Qian also handed over on the side, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I don't like these sweets very much." ”

"Oh~" Lin Daiyu was a little disappointed, and said, "Then cousin, wait a while, you can have lunch later." ”

Song Xuan shook his head, "Eating is free, there are still a lot of things to do today, and when we have leisure another day, our brothers and sisters will come to the Lin Mansion to disturb again." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to Song Qian, "Let's go, follow me to the grave!" ”

"Oh!"

Song Qian stuffed the osmanthus cake in her hand into her mouth, and said goodbye to Lin Daiyu while swallowing, "Xiao Yuyu, cousin is going to do business first, remember to prepare more pastries at home, I'll eat it another day~"

"Well, okay, cousin, let's ...... next time you come"

Before she finished speaking, she saw that the pair of brothers and sisters who were in a hurry had gone away, she put down her hand in some frustration and sighed abruptly.

"It's all gone....."

In the room not far away, Lin Ruhai quietly watched this scene from the window, and after a while, he spoke softly.

"You just said that the strength of the two Song Xuan brothers and sisters is very strong?"

In the room, the old man in black, who had communicated with Song Xuan before, walked out of the corner and nodded solemnly.

"Very strong!"

"Stronger than you, an innate martial artist?"

"It's hard to say." The old man in black muttered, "It stands to reason that I didn't sense the innate aura on the two of them, and they shouldn't have broken through to the innate yet."

But these two people give me a strange feeling, how can I say it....."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Master, you should also know that cultivation is cultivation, strength is strength, and sometimes it is not just cultivation that is decided.

Otherwise, when everyone meets, they exude the aura of cultivation with each other and compare with each other, where will there be a fight?

In fact, there are too many factors that determine life and death, such as internal strength, martial arts, divine weapons, external environment, and even the mentality and fighting spirit of both sides, etc., which may affect the final battle situation. ”

Lin Ruhai waved his hand, "Just say it directly, if you do it with them now, are you sure you will win?" ”

The old man in black thought for a moment and said, "If I start fighting now, I should win, but if it is a life-and-death fight, the death estimate will be mine." ”

"Oh? Why is that? ”

The old man said in a condensed voice: "I stepped into the rivers and lakes at the age of fourteen, and I have been in the martial arts for decades, and I have seen too many unusual.

Some people can't be judged by common sense, and sometimes, you have to admit that God will really favor some people too much.

Master, believe it or not, if I fight to the death with them today, the brother and sister will break through in a very unreasonable way, and then kill me! ”
