Chapter 75 Return journey (2 more)(1/2)
"Have you heard it? The imperial edict has entered the prince's mansion!"
"Yes, yes, I've watched it, God."
"The emperor is indeed the true emperor, for the people and the country! The prince violates the law and commits the same crime as the common people."
At this time, there was already a boiling crowd, and some people were already talking nonsense among the crowd.
"Don't talk nonsense, just give orders, and I don't know what's going on."
"That's right, even if that's right?"
"Let's go to the Sitang to listen?"
"Dare you dare?"
"Why don't you dare? That's an imperial edict!"
The sounds in the crowd became more and more messy. Lin Hengchong put down the curtain of the car, his eyebrows were locked, and he ordered the carriage to be faster, and his heart was a little uneasy.
Imperial letter, imperial edict! Everything is too fast! You must leave before the city gate is closed.
"Old man, there seem to be officers and soldiers in front of him." Seeing that the city gate was approaching, the speed of the carriage slowed down. Chen Chang stayed in Kyoto to observe, so Dongfu drove the car.
After hearing Dongfu's words, the old man felt nervous. He quickly waved the curtain and looked at it. It was the garrison in the city. Oh no, he wanted to block the city gate. "Why stop, hurry up."
Dongfu was stunned by the roar. After pulling the ropes of the conditioned reflex, he drove to the car quickly. He became nervous inexplicably, and the people became tense as well.
"Don't look around, as long as the city gate is open, go out toward the city gate."
"Yes, old man." Dongfu took a breath and drove into it.
The car behind looked at the front of the car that accelerated. Although he was a little scared, he also accelerated the car. No matter what, it was the old man's car in front of him, and it was absolutely right to follow the old man's car.
"Grandfather, but... want to lock down the city?" Lin Hongtu, who had been quiet in the carriage, suddenly spoke, and he also saw the officers and soldiers outside.
Lin Hengchong looked at his grandson. This child was keen and calm, and he was not panicked when encountering problems. Hey!
"It's okay, sit down." He comforted his grandson. The old man continued to look at the situation outside the car. Seeing that he was about to reach the city gate, some officers and soldiers were moving towards the city gate, and his heart skipped a beat.
At the same time, a fast horse galloped over and stopped at the city gate. He didn't know what he said to the officers and soldiers guarding the city, but the officers and soldiers stopped.
"Hurry, hurry up and catch the train." At this time, I can't control what will happen, and leaving the city as soon as possible is the best strategy.
Under the pressure, Dongfu drove quickly towards the city gate under the attention of rows of officers and soldiers. The carriage behind could only follow with a stern finger, and the others entering and leaving the city stopped, so the few carriages from the Lin family seemed even more eye-catching.
The old lady, who was already a little confused, seemed to be waving and noticed something.
"Grandmother..." Since getting on the bus, my grandmother didn't say a word to her. Lin Yunlan thought at first that the old lady felt uncomfortable because she suddenly left, but now she felt a little uneasy.
She felt that her grandmother seemed to be deliberately neglecting herself. When she recalled, she seemed to have nothing wrong with it. Before she could think about it, the carriage suddenly accelerated, carefully opened the corner of the curtain and glanced at it. Seeing that the window was full of officers and soldiers were scared.
Did my grandfather suddenly get anxious to go back? What happened?
I felt a little timid. After all, I had never seen this scene before, so I couldn't help but be afraid and approached the old lady.
"It's okay, I've left the city." Although the old lady was angry with Lin Yunlan, she looked scared and finally spoke, but she didn't have the time to say much.
There is a huge thing going on in Kyoto. There are so many officers and soldiers who are trying to close the city gate according to their posture. Thinking of it, they opened the curtains of the car window and turned their heads to take a look. Sure enough, the city gate was slowly closing.
The Lin family's carriage was closed as soon as it left the city. Seeing the city gate closed, Old Master Lin breathed a sigh of relief. If he finished a step, he might be stranded in Kyoto.
"Xiao Wu, the car is driving fast, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Finally, Lin Hengchong looked at Lin Hongtu with concern and began to ask.
Lin Hongtu shook his head, "Grandfather, I'm fine." After saying that, he smiled so that the old man could rest assured.
Well, seeing that his face was pretty good, and before there was time, the old man finally asked about the situation when the brother and brother went to Mr. Mei's place.
Lin Hongtu said everything about the passage, without any concealment.
After hearing this, Mr. Lin narrowed his eyes and asked, "Mr. Mei has assigned homework to your elder sister?" This is different from asking the elder girl to follow her class.
He knew Mr. Mei’s temper. Judging from his grandson’s narrative, Mr. Mei was probably taking the exam for the big girl, and the big girl also caught Mr. Mei’s eyes. If it were not for recognition, it would never be possible to leave her homework.
I just don't know what homework I left.
Of course, it was somewhat inappropriate for Mr. Mei to let the girl enter his dormitory, but fortunately there were no outsiders.
The grandfather and grandson chatted for a while, and Lin Hengchong took the exam again. He asked casually so as not to be too quiet on the road.
But Lin Hongtu's answer made Lin Hengchong look at him with admiration. He knew that this grandson had been smart since childhood, but he didn't expect that he could see so deeply.
"What do you think the prince will happen to today's affairs?" This topic, in the past, Lin Hengchong would never discuss it in front of his grandson.
Today, I couldn't help but speak, wanting to see how far this grandson could see.
Lin Hongtu's head was slightly lowered, and he thought for a while before he said: "Grandfather, the gentleman once said that water can carry boats and can also overturn the boats. It is about the way of being a king. The prince is first the prince, and then the prince. This case involves disaster relief, which is closely related to the people. Therefore... this imperial statute is 80% the emperor... the emperor wants to take care of it."
Lin Hongtu said softly, with a bit of caution, but Lin Hengchong's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he pinched his beard and looked at his grandson, with a little excitement in his encouragement, "Continue."
Nodded, grandfather asked him to say that he should be right, and he was a little more courageous. "If the emperor wants to take care of it, it may be handed over to the Sansi and the Prince..."
Speaking of this, I was afraid that the following words would be inappropriate, so I looked at Lin Hengchong and wanted to speak but stopped. After receiving the hint from Lin Hengchong, I continued: "The prince is troublesome regardless of whether he is really suspected of being greedy. After all, history books remember that a crown prince of a country is related to the stability of the country and cannot move easily. As long as he moves... he will definitely not be too calm."
This is the first time Lin Hongtu has talked about such things like an adult in front of his grandfather. He is inevitably a little unwilling to let go. Because he lacks knowledge, he knows some meaning but does not express it accurately.
But just this insight is enough to amazed Mr. Lin.
While feeling relieved, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart. Looking at Lin Hongtu's increasing kindness, this child has a vision, can learn from one example, speak carefully without losing his sense of proposition, look at the problem and see the depths, which is great!
"Xiao Wu, remember, these words are OK for grandpa to say, but in front of outsiders, remember to listen less and more. Do you understand?"
Lin Hongtu and Zheng pointed out, "Grandfather's words, grandson has written them down."
I couldn't help but raise my hand and touch Lin Hongtu's head, "Good boy." If I didn't have this disease, how good would it be? If there are successors, why would he worry about?
"Grandfather, what's wrong with you?" Lin Hongtu was sensitive and noticed Lin Hengchong's emotional changes, and asked with concern.
Since childhood, anyone who treats him well has become like a mirror in his heart.
"It's nothing, my grandfather just sighed, grandfather is old, and in a blink of an eye, Xiaowu is so old." Lin Hengchong shook his head and smiled, becoming more loving.
He grinned and said with a crisp voice: "Grandfather is not old at all, but grandfather has worked too hard. Xiaowu will help his grandfather take good care of our Lin family in the future." Just like his grandfather has protected him since childhood.
Grandfather protects the Lin family with all his heart, and he will do it because of this.
My eyes were a little wet in an instant. This child was too sensible. A sensible child always made people feel distressed. He patted Lin Hongtu's head again and said in a faint voice: "I am worthy of being a good man in our Lin family. My grandfather only hopes that you are healthy, that's great."
Such a good kid, sometimes it's really unfair.
"Well! Yes, my elder sister said, my illness will be cured, I will live for a hundred years, grandfather doesn't have to worry about me, look, am I not very good now? It's okay to come out this time."
After saying that, he patted his chest and said that he was very good, and his smile was still so bright.
Lin Hongtu was like a ray of sunshine, instantly warming the carriage a lot.
Looking at his grandson, Lin Hengchong couldn't help but look slightly warm. He thought to himself, could Master Puzhi's words be true? After the big girl came back, the grandson couldn't help but get out of danger, as if she looked much better than before.
The big girl seemed to know medical skills. Although she still couldn't figure out where to learn it, and she didn't know that her medical skills were advanced, but... she suddenly grabbed Lin Hongtu's hand and carefully pressed her throat to ask, "Your elder sister said, will your illness be cured?"
"Well! The eldest sister said, I will definitely get better. I believe in the eldest sister." Who doesn't want to live a long life? Who doesn't want to be healthy, and who doesn't want to treat those decoctions that are difficult to swallow every day?
He would rather believe in his elder sister, even if it was just a slim hope and lived with hope, it was better than before. The elder sister said that people should always look forward and face the direction of the rising sun.
The big girl said this seriously, is that... No, it's impossible. Dr. Luo's medical skills are so great that he even said that. The big girl has great ability, but she is just a fourteenth girl.
Alas! I heard that the siblings had a good relationship, so the big girl probably comforted Xiaowu. At least, Xiaowu is in good spirits now.
"You like your elder sister very much." If someone else was there, the child would probably not take this to heart.
He felt a little embarrassed, but nodded firmly, "Well, big sister is very good, grandfather, do you think big sister is very good, right?"
Lin Hengchong was unable to perfunctory or say bad things when he faced such clean and firm eyes, and he was puzzled. How long have these two children been in contact?
Forget it, it’s a brother-in-law who is a brother-in-law and a brother-in-law. It’s better to have a better relationship. This kind of brother-in-law is also a bit precious. I hope that the big girl will not let down the child’s innocent heart.
"Yeah, it's very good." I can't help but disappoint my grandson.
That girl is really good, because she is so good, so she has many suspicious points. Just now, he can't find out why. Let's do it first. At present, the Lin family still has many things to deal with.
There is a storm and chaos in Kyoto. Since I decided to enter Kyoto later, I will clean up the snow in front of me first.
He always had to understand the matter between the Mo family and the second son. He wanted to compete with him, but he was not capable. Didn’t he calm down and think carefully about what kind of family the Mo family is now? How could so many noble women and daughters in the capital think of a small little Lin family in Huai'an City?
What's more, Mo Yihong met him personally, which was what he was most worried about.
He was an official in the same dynasty for many years, but he never could see through Mo Yihong. When he was only eighteen, he was selected as the next leader of the Mo family by the Mo family. At the age of nineteen, he won the championship in one fell swoop. Without relying on the protection of the Mo family, he passed the top scorer and entered the court as an official. He was unable to pick up any etiquette.
People are also very handsome. Back then, in Kyoto City, many daughters wanted to marry into the Mo family, but they didn't expect that they would marry the Zi family.
The Zi family was not the most ideal at that time, and he was the daughter of a military general. Although the Zi family held military power, the military power in the Zi family did not have any impact on the situation in Kyoto and did not help the Mo family very much. What's more, the royal family intentionally wanted to give Princess Cheng Ji to Mo Yihong...
After the Mo family got married with the Zi family, it was rumored that the couple was very harmonious. However, the wife of the Zi family had been in the mansion for several years and could not add a male member to the Mo family. Later, because the emperor gave the marriage, Princess Cheng Ji married, and she could not let the princess feel wronged. Therefore, the Mo family was also embarrassed at the time.
Mo Yihong refused to accept the order, but later Mo Zhongjun, the leader of the Mo family, bit the bullet and took over his son.
Since then, few people have mentioned the Mo family’s eldest wife and rarely on the road outside. Outsiders can gradually only see Princess Cheng Ji, who is the current mistress of the Mo family and the birth mother of the current queen.
It is also amazing. A princess of the previous dynasty became the mother-in-law of the emperor!
Of course, no one will mention this matter now. It is said that the princess of the previous dynasty is called Mrs. Mo in the capital.
It’s a pity that the Zi family is such a beautiful girl. When he saw her for the last time, he still remembers that at the edge of the corner door of Mo Mansion, despite being dressed in plain clothes and over thirty years old, he still has a graceful look that way.
That style was not a splendid dress, nor could it be made of gold, silver and jade. The hands that reached in front of him were covered with calluses, but they were so generous. He could not forget the words "Uncle Lin".
To be continued...
