"Your wife is in the back hall..." Lin Yutong sent Hong Zhou away, "Go and see your wife." Having said everything that should be said, Hong Zhou couldn't help the rest, so he simply sent her away.
As for how to prevent Wu Zaku from leaking information after meeting her, that is Hong Zhou's business. This guy is quite capable at coaxing women.
Hong Zhou remembered that Huang'e Niang had said that his wife was pregnant, so he stood up and ran away without wearing any shoes. He ran to the door before he remembered, returned, picked up the shoes and ran away.
After they left, Lin Yutong looked at the drawing and asked, "What should we do now?"
The Fourth Master looked at the drawings and called Su Peisheng directly, "Tell your Thirteenth Master to come over."
The Thirteenth Master was resting in the garden and was woken up as soon as he lay down. He put on his robe and slippers and left. Being woken up in the middle of the night was a common occurrence for him, who was very skilled in business.
What is it for today?
A thought like this flashed through my mind out of habit, but then I didn't even bother thinking about it. The Qing Dynasty is so big, who knows where trouble will happen again. Anyway, I deal with troubles every day, and I got used to troubles and troubles.
When they arrived at the Imperial Study Room, they were slightly surprised to see Lin Yutong still there. Then they met with Li and quickly asked, "Did something happen in the capital?" If something happened to the clan, the Queen would have made it right here.
Lin Yutong smiled and dismissed the waiters inside. Even Su Peisheng was sent to guard the door while he went to make tea and water.
The fourth master then raised his head from the drawing and waved Thirteen over, "See what this is?"
Thirteen didn't see the outside. He took one look and smiled, "Is it improving again?" But isn't this picture a little too rough? This thing is different from other things. The slightest difference can make a huge difference. "Who?
Painted? No one can make anything out of this picture?"
Fourth Master nodded, "This is a lucky place for us." He said bluntly, "We got it from Caogang."
Caobang?
Master Thirteen's expression changed, and he immediately realized what this meant? The secret was leaked!
He was about to kneel down and say, "Long live my Lord, I have neglected my duty..."
The fourth master held the person in his arms, calculated mentally and unintentionally. In the case of imperfect confidentiality system, it is almost difficult to completely prevent this kind of thing. Not to mention that Shisan would have made such a flaw if he had handled it personally.
Lin Yutong and Lin Yutong did not dare to say that such a thing would never happen. "It's fine for you to be fined for half a year. Just let your rulers and ministers know about it. Don't publicize it to the outside world."
Even if there is a mistake, even if it is punished, it cannot be announced to the outside world. The matter is confidential, and the Thirteenth Master immediately understood it. Of course, there was a sin of oversight. With such a simple punishment, the matter is over. Just look at the matter at hand.
What should he do? Long Live Lord's unreasonable trust made him feel warm in his heart. At this moment, he wanted to know who the person behind this was more than anyone else as soon as possible.
I took the drawing in my hand and looked at it again and again. First I looked at the paper, then I looked at the polish. It was ordinary paper, ordinary ink, and there was no flaw at all.
Taking a closer look at the drawing, in fact, the things on the drawing are not very accurate. Many important places are not marked, and the drawing is not very good. Thirteenth Master put the drawing down and said, "This thing can at least explain a few points. Chapter 1
First, there is indeed a loophole on my side, allowing people to take advantage of it. Second, someone has already focused on these important things, not just one group of people, but several groups of people. Third, this drawing is incomplete. I don’t know.
Is it really incomplete, or someone has already obtained the complete drawings but deliberately used the incomplete drawings to trade to get a better price."
Lin Yutong handed over the tea, but he agreed with Shisan's words in his heart. What Shisan meant was that Caobang should not be able to stretch his hand that far. At most, he would spend money to make a deal with others. And the seller is the most important thing.
, he was implying that the seller was the person who stole the blueprints and was in the capital.
Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind, "...have the other groups of people who entered Beijing been arrested?"
The Fourth Master looked at Lin Yutong and said, "What's wrong?" Hong Zhou's side has been arrested, and it doesn't make sense if the other parties don't arrest them. Since the other party is testing, it's hard to deal with it. If Hong Zhou's side is arrested, it will be a show.
, "The people have been arrested and are being held in prison." There are four cells in the east, west, north and south, and no one can touch anyone.
Lin Yutong said anxiously: "Are we searching? Search carefully, especially on a few people..."
The Fourth Master immediately understood what Lin Yutong meant. He was afraid that Hong Zhou would become a part of someone's scheme. Hong Zhou did not try to steal this blueprint, but he deliberately let Hong Zhou steal it.
He glanced at Thirteen, who immediately stood up and said, "I'll do it myself."
After watching Thirteen leave, Fourth Master asked Lin Yutong, "What do you think?"
Lin Yutong clicked on the blueprint, "What can you build with this thing? Nothing can be built. So now there are two situations. One is that the theft is successful and the complete blueprint is stolen. The other is that the theft is successful and the complete blueprint is stolen.
If the theft is not successful, what he steals is not completed in itself."
"These two different situations have two different results. If it succeeds and this person does have the complete drawings in his hands, will he sell such a precious thing? If he is really not tempted, he will not do it.
Such a risky thing. Therefore, we can draw the conclusion that this person or this group of people is extremely ambitious."
"So does that mean that in this case, there will definitely not be a betrayal?" Lin Yutong asked and answered, "Not absolutely! We know how much money it costs to build a warship, such a huge sum.
Does the other party have money? If there is no or not enough money and the thing cannot be made, then can it be said that this thing is actually a piece of waste paper. He may not be able to make up such a huge funding gap in his life. If that is the case
What should I do? Will he try to exchange this drawing for money? But in exchange for money, let others own it. Obviously this is not in his interest. So, a not very accurate drawing was concocted. But this
Who can sell things to? Who can have money and need ships, especially warships?"
Caobang!
Fourth Master nodded, the situation she imagined existed, and it was extremely likely to exist.
Lin Yutong smiled, "Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the other party is a bit rogue. He obviously does not have the complete blueprints in his hand, but he just wants to defraud him of a sum of money. If this is the case, then the Cao Gang will really be cheated."
As she said that, she sneered, "But no matter what the situation is, Caobang should realize that they have been cheated. Otherwise, how could the kid who was still suspicious of Hongzhou just half a year ago steal this thing? Don't say anything.
Of course, the fewer people who know about this kind of transaction, the better. No matter how much the military advisor dotes on his daughter, he still needs to have this bottom line, otherwise he will not be able to hold his current position. But this drawing was taken by Hong Zhou.
Come back? What does this mean? This means that the Cao Gang is not only testing Hong Zhou, but also wants to convey a message to the court through Hong Zhou and a few people who are also suspected like Hong Zhou, in order to take revenge for being deceived.
.”
The blueprints were lost quietly. If Caobang hadn't gotten the news, there would have been no news at all.
Fourth Master must have fully understood what Lin Yutong meant, "You suspect that the people who stole the blueprints, found out Hong Zhou's whereabouts, and cracked the secret messages are actually the same group of people."
Lin Yutong nodded, "One thing in common among these three incidents is that the people involved are almost the same, one is Cao Gang and the other is Hong Zhou. So if the mysterious person here is not the same, it really doesn't make sense."
Make the complex simple.
It's that simple to straighten things out.
Fourth Master tapped his finger on the drawing, "... Caobang should be able to tell whether a drawing is good or bad. But Caobang still bought it. Does this mean that when the two parties were trading, there were still people selling drawings?
The other incidental things won Caobang’s trust..."
Otherwise, only a fool would buy such a blueprint. Judging from their current method, which is very similar to revenge, they paid a very high price, but the other party probably still broke the contract.
Lin Yutong arranged the teacups and teapots on the table into a triangle. The fourth master’s cup represents the Caobang, and the thirteenth master’s cup represents Hongzhou. The teapot represents the mysterious man, “…the mysterious man contacted the Caobang and proposed the deal. The Caobang
After seeing the drawings, I will definitely not buy it. But if I were the mysterious man, what would I do if I deliberately wanted to make a fortune?" She picked up the teapot representing the mysterious man and held it in her arms, as if
She is really like that mysterious person, "I am anxious for money, I am very anxious, I really want to build such a magical weapon... Then I have to facilitate this deal. The Caobang's money must be obtained, but
How can I be willing to give the thing in my hand with both hands? I have a magic weapon in my hand, and I may be rich in the world in the future. How can this be measured in terms of money? I can't really sell it for any amount of money. So what should I do?
?So I concocted a fake thing with only details but no details. The Caobang didn’t buy it and thought it didn’t matter that I was teasing them. I had my own excuse. How could I meet such an important thing with more detailed drawings for the first time?
Will they come to them? Who has a photographic memory for this thing, or robbed it directly with malicious intentions, then who can I ask to reason? This logic makes sense everywhere. As long as you don’t leave, as long as you feel that it’s right, this business
We can continue the discussion. I will tell them that I will only give half of the drawings, and they can also give only half of the money. After I receive the money, I will bring another part of the more detailed drawings to them for the transaction. Everyone gets the money and the goods, clean.
This proposal seems reasonable and reasonable, but will the Cao Gang agree? They are not stupid! Of course they will not agree. Why? Because what they bought for half the price is a piece of waste paper that is nothing. A drawing without details is just a piece of paper.
It's a piece of waste paper. So they don't agree. Forging a more authentic one? It won't work! They won't believe that I would exchange such an important thing for money. The credibility is not as rough as this, which is more trustworthy. But how?
What to do? This deal must be done. Now that I have revealed this thing, what should I do if the other party doesn't do it and wants to steal it from me? So, I revealed the news to them, that is, the fifth elder brother is in Cao
Just this news, they won’t feel that they have lost much money even if they paid for it. And as soon as this news came out, the other party must be a little afraid of me. Knowing that my status in the capital may not be low, they will be even more afraid to easily
With just a few thought, I achieved this goal..." As she spoke, her tone paused, "That's true, but why do I still feel that something is missing?"
She gently placed her hand on the teapot in her arms, and after a long while she shook her head and said, "No! The fifth elder brother's news cannot be exchanged for such a large sum of money. After all, he can't pinpoint which one is the right one?"
Fifth Brother. Then what else can win the trust of the Caobang and make the Caobang willing to pay money? The information channel in your hand? No! This thing will not let go even if it dies. What is that?"
Do you know the drawings of the textile machine? If this is really the case, then Caobang must feel that he will not suffer any loss if he pays for it.
Lin Yutong opened his eyes suddenly and looked at Fourth Master, "Hongzhou can't go back. Even if the other party has not confirmed his identity 80%, it is probably almost there. The timelines Hongzhou mentioned before should be all wrong. He said
He got the drawings first, and then heard the news that the Caobang knew about Brother Wu's sneaking in. This was wrong! The timeline of the two incidents should be the same. The other party had already suspected him. He used the drawings to test
Seeing that he really stole it, he deliberately revealed to Hong Zhou that they already knew that the fifth elder brother had sneaked in... Maybe there were other groups of people who took the drawings like Hong Zhou, and their purpose may be for
The money may be for other reasons, which makes Caobang unable to confirm who is the fifth elder brother. That's why this incident happened..." As she said, she looked at the fourth master who had been looking at her silently, "
Do you think this mysterious man could be one of these brothers?"
Fourth Master lowered his eyelids and nodded, "Probably so."
Lin Yutong was silent. He went through the matter from beginning to end, but he always felt that something was inconsistent. This violation was very unreasonable, but if his guess was accurate, the whole thing would be reasonable.
Su Peisheng, who was outside, and Hong Zhou, who was back again, were anxious to hear what was wrong.
Lin Yutong sighed, where is it unreasonable? It is unreasonable that the Caobang cannot recognize Hong Zhou. To tell the fifth elder brother the news, it should be very easy to provide a portrait of Hong Zhou. As soon as the portrait is released,
Where was Hong Zhou hiding? Not only did he not provide the other party with Hong Zhou's portrait, he probably also prevented the Cao Gang from obtaining the portrait through other means.
Why is this happening? How to explain such a thing?
If he is really one of the fourth master's brothers, this is easy to explain. He still has some affection in his heart and doesn't want his nephew to risk his life.
The Caobang retaliated so quickly and revealed the drawings to the court. It is estimated that they were also blocked by various means over and over again to obtain Hong Zhou's portrait. It was more likely that they felt that the fifth elder brother had something to do with it.
It may be fake, and the person who sold the drawings was deceived from the beginning to the end.
From just a few flaws, the scope of suspects can be narrowed down to a minimum.
Not to mention the emperor's nephews, those boys are very unruly towards their dear Ama, and they can show mercy to Hong Zhou. That's just a dream. At that point, the only ones who still have some sympathy are brothers like Fourth Master.
.
It's easy to check from this direction in the opposite direction.
There was no movement in the room, and Hong Zhou was anxious. He understood three things. First, he had been tricked, and the mission was a complete failure. Second, there was a certain uncle who had bad intentions, but he had a glimmer of kindness towards himself.
Third, I don’t have to go.
There was no need to go, he admitted it. He hurried in and said, "What about the remaining grain? The remaining grain is still in Caobang."
The fourth master glared, "Take your wife back and have a rest early. I will take care of the remaining food. It's not something you should worry about..."
Okay! That scene yesterday was in vain.
"Then... Wang Duo'er and those people..." Hong Zhou quickly asked again.
"Go to sleep with you." Lin Yutong dismissed Hong Zhou without waiting for Fourth Master to change his attitude, "Let's go quickly. I've been staying in the garden recently, don't go anywhere."
After pushing Hong Zhou out, Lin Yutong smiled, "If this guy hadn't reminded me, I would have really forgotten. I have enough food left! This guy should be able to use it."
As soon as Fourth Master's eyes met Lin Yutong's, the corners of his mouth immediately raised. It felt like Tongtong's whole body was shining like this. She was wise, confident, and flying. He hadn't seen her like this for a long time. He frowned
Gently provoked, "Then...you do it..."
I'll come, I'll come!
When Master Thirteen came back, he had two drawings in his hand, which were the same as those brought back by Hong Zhou. This proved that Lin Yutong's speculation was very likely to be correct.
Fourth Master left Thirteen to talk, and Lin Yutong withdrew. When he came back later, he saw that the four children were sleeping soundly, so Lin Yutong called Zhang Qilin and gave some instructions in a low voice.
Zhang Qilin took the order and went out. After Lin Yutong woke up, washed up and had a meal, he brought in a eunuch who was bending down and bowing his head. "My queen, do you think this boy's figure is okay?"
Lin Yutong raised his eyes and looked at it, frowned and said: "Stand up straight, raise your head and chest out!"
After standing up straight, Lin Yutong looked around twice and felt that both the figure and the back looked very similar to Hong Zhou. Maybe Zhang Qilin had told him that this little eunuch didn't look nervous at all.
Lin Yutong nodded secretly and asked Zhang Qilin, "Is it reliable? It must be 100% reliable."
Zhang Qilin nodded, "The old slave vouched with his head that he is reliable. He is actually the slave's nephew from the same village... There were droughts in those years, so he fled the famine and wanted to find a bowl of rice at the feet of the emperor, but this was not an easy task.
.This boy is also a cruel man. He had himself purged... He was still in the palace at that time. The old slave reported back to his master, and then he took this boy to the palace and found a job..."
Lin Yutong knew about this situation. Many of the eunuchs in the palace were sold by their parents when they were young, but there were also many who sold themselves. Many of them are still pursuing this path when they are not young. There is a specialized department in the capital.
This is the business of a shop that purifies people. You spend money to purify yourself, and then you go to the palace or the palace to find a job. There is buying and selling, and it is difficult to put an end to it in the short term. Nowadays, the clan is huge
, there may be more people in the next generation. For example, today's emperor's nephews have grown up under the service of eunuchs since they were young. They are used to such a group and feel that they can use them with ease. But in the future, if they no longer have titles or
The title is low, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not allocate so many eunuchs. What should I do? Anyone who buys is not a buyer. As long as these people are willing to sell, there will be people to buy. The fourth master has ordered a ban, but it has been banned repeatedly. In the final analysis, it is just a temporary solution rather than a temporary solution.
Treating the root cause. However, with the promotion of improved varieties and the protection provided by the Department of Civil Affairs, this type of people will gradually decrease. When people can have food without having to worry about it, no one will take this path. Of course.
, those who have to cut off a piece of meat to seek a rich and prosperous future are another matter.
With this thought in mind, he kept moving his hands, and with little effort, his ordinary face became eighty-nine times similar to Hong Zhou's.
Even Hong Zhou, who rushed over and was used as a reference, was frightened, "This... this... this is too similar..." Huang Eniang still has this skill?
"Maybe I look a bit like you." Lin Yutong fooled him, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. I will explain what needs to be explained. After tonight, there will be no more Zhou Hongwu and Zhou Hong in this world..."
Hong Zhou pursed his lips, and Friday Master, who started his business with great ambitions, died young?
"Zhou Xiaowu—Zhou Xiaowu—" Wang Duo'er clung to the prison wall like crazy, stretched her hand through the gap, and reached out towards 'Zhou Hong' who was covered in blood.
"Wake up! Wake up!" Wang Duo'er shouted like crazy, "What did they do to you? You talk! You move!"
'Zhou Hong' just rolled his eyes and glanced at Wang Duoer, making a hoho sound. Apparently he couldn't even say a word.
"Brother, what's wrong with Zhou Xiaowu?" Wang Duoer glanced at the black young man in the cell opposite and asked hurriedly.
The black young man frowned and looked at 'Zhou Hong', and his heart was beating fiercely. With things like this, there was no way he could be the fifth elder brother. When he saw his parents yesterday, he realized that he was definitely not the fifth elder brother.
. One look at his parents and they knew his parentage, but the master just asked him to give it a try. Could it be that the test was broken? If he really died here, he would feel very guilty.
"Junior brother!" He shouted hurriedly, "Junior brother, can you hear me?"
Before anyone could say anything, the cell door was opened again, and the black young man was taken out. Obviously, he was going to be sentenced.
Wang Duoer almost collapsed, "No! No!"
The cell leader scolded: "What are you shouting for? What are you shouting for? Please calm down! Come one by one, no one can escape."
There was also a woman who was locked up with Wang Duoer. She was the old woman holding the soles of her shoes that Lin Yutong saw in the yard opposite. She reached over and covered Wang Duoer's mouth and lowered her voice, "Stop shouting.
, if you shout again we will be finished."
Wang Duo'er didn't know where the energy came from, "Why is it over? They are looking down on human life! We are not rebels... I have a guarantor, and I can prove that I am not a rebel, and they are not rebels..."
The cell leader sneered, "Then we have nothing to do with it. Some people say you are rebels, so we just follow the rules. You can't tell us anything."
After saying that, he turned around and left. After walking for two steps, he seemed to remember something. He glanced at 'Zhou Hong' who was lying motionless, frowned hard, and muttered, "You're not really dead, are you?"
He took the key and opened the door, went over to take a breath, then his expression changed drastically, and he got up and ran out in a hurry. The officer who was escorting the black young man was startled, and he let him go and chased him out.
The black young man looked at the open cell door of 'Zhou Hong' and ran in eagerly. He rushed towards him and saw that it was not Zhou Xiaowu. There was blood at the corner of his mouth and whip marks and stick marks all over his body. He was clearly moved.
He was about to be sentenced to death. He shook his head eagerly, "Xiaowu...junior brother..."
No matter how much he shook, it was no use. He put his hand under his nose and checked, and sure enough, he was no longer breathing.
Wang Duoer's face turned pale when she saw this, "Feel your pulse! Feel it and see..." After shouting, she shouted out, "Someone is here! Find the doctor! Someone is going to die..."
Just as the black young man's hand was about to put his hand on 'Zhou Hong''s wrist, the cell leader pulled an old man in with a box on his shoulder, "...You are a gangster, don't look at anyone... If you are still alive, don't care... If
We can’t care if we’re not angry anymore…”
The old man glared, "You are the butcher!"
The cell leader chuckled, but when he saw the black young man in this cell, he kicked him over, turned around and scolded his subordinates again, "You're a bastard! Who's to blame if he runs away?"
The black young man was dragged away with a face of reluctance, but his face turned to look this way, his ears were buzzing, and the voice could not be heard clearly. The old man seemed to say: "...It can't be done...I'm out of breath...
Move...you are the ones doing evil..." and the like. When I woke up, my ears were filled with Duo'er's desperate cries, and what I saw with my eyes was the living Zhou Xiaowu being dragged around like a broken sack.
out.
At this moment, he hated his master for no reason. Is it interesting to test him like this? A good person will be gone if he says it is gone. He thought of the couple who were looking for their son yesterday. The father was taciturn and wanted to teach him a lesson in front of him, an outsider.
The son was afraid of losing face, so he put all his emotions on the rattans woven into the basket. He looked at the basket and found that it was much tighter. The basket was actually a little loose and tight.
.My mother is like most women from farmers' families. She cries and behaves because she misses her son. She is afraid that the child will suffer hardship outside and that he will learn bad things outside. She is the same as most mothers. He really can't see this.
What's the problem inside? Yesterday he was fine, but today his son died. Now that he's out, how can he explain this to his parents? How can he be so shameless?
After listening to the narration of the little eunuch's return, Hong Zhou felt a little sad in his heart, "I'm dead, I'm dead... I'll be dead once I'm dead... I'll forget about it after I die... If I really care about my love... I'll treat Yu Liang like that in the future
Please take more care of me... in the future... you will eventually repay today's kindness..."
The little eunuch didn't dare to answer. After saying everything he had to say, he withdrew.
Hong Zhou sat alone in the study, stunned for a long time, but he almost laughed. He was busy here and there, leading to a theft case of blueprints. At most, he gave away the remaining grain. In the past, he thought of asking Yu Liang to cover for him.
Who would have thought that he was the one who provided cover for Yu Liang.
While I was in a daze, word spread that Long live the Lord would like to invite me.
Hong Zhou hurriedly stood up and walked over, "But do you have an errand for your son?"
"Your errand is not over yet." Fourth Master asked Hong Zhou to sit down. "Although we didn't get everything done in Caobang this time, we didn't return without success. At least you went in and got in touch with the upper management.
The operational process and the personalities of the several leader-like characters are almost understood. You don’t have to do things personally, and the same is true for remote control. You still have a single line of communication with Yuliang. You will gain wisdom from every experience, how to avoid risks, you should
You’ve learned it.”
If you still fail to learn after such a big fall, then you are really out of reach.
Hong Zhou felt relieved in his heart, "My son knows what to do. If he fails again... my son won't want any title..." He doesn't deserve it!
The Fourth Master then sent him off, "Go ahead! You know what to say to the outside world, right?"
My daughter-in-law was about to give birth, so Huang Ama and Huang E’s mother couldn’t bear to call her back from the imperial mausoleum.
He chuckled, "I know. You can't handle this yet?" He hesitated, "How was the investigation by Uncle Thirteen? Which uncle was it? Or uncle?"
The Fourth Master looked over with a cold look, and Hong Zhou ran out immediately.
Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask! Hong Zhou slapped his mouth and said, “I told you to talk too much.”
The Thirteenth Master walked in a hurry, and when he saw Hong Zhou running out of the imperial study and running to the other side, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily. This kid must have committed a crime.
However, a small life is indeed a big deal. It would be hard to say if I hadn't been merciful this time.
Thinking about it this way, I feel a little complicated.
After entering the imperial study room, he did not gossip with the Fourth Master, "... There was news from the cell that someone started to act today... There is Prince Yu's Mansion... No, it is the staff of the County Prince's Mansion, Prince Jian
The teacher of the house, the accountant of the Ulanala family, and the uncle of a concubine of the Niu Gulu family, all the monsters and ghosts came out, and they were the ones who took the person out by sneaking around."
These should all be Caobang's connections. These people are not necessarily from Caobang or have a very deep friendship with Caobang. In the final analysis, they are just money. If you have money, you can build a network of relationships.
This is nothing surprising.
Fourth Master turned the cup in his hand and said, "Put them all away!" There is nothing worth investigating about these people, and it is useful to let them go.
The Thirteenth Master nodded. This arrangement was not unexpected. He continued, "Those people are actually two groups. One group is indeed from the Caogang, but the origin of the other group is unclear. They were locked together for observation. They
They don’t know each other. The people in Caobang have very mixed accents, with more southern accents. But the other group of people sounds like they mostly have accents from the capital..."
Fourth Master knew in his heart that this meant that the people from other families in the alley in Hongzhou were "...also let go..."
Also let go?
Master Thirteen understood that he wanted to follow the clues and see where these people would go to find their masters after they left.
Fourth Master looked at Thirteen, "Brothers, what can't you say?"
Thirteen said cautiously: "Fourth brother, what if this involves someone you don't want to involve?"
Fourth Master pursed his lips for a long time before asking: "Who do you want to say?"
Thirteen lowered his head, "I am afraid that... I will hurt the jade bottle if I hit the mouse..."
Fourth Master raised his hands to cover his eyes, "Did Hong Xi get involved?"
Thirteen pursed his lips and did not speak. When he spoke, his voice was choked with sobs. "Second brother is already embarrassed, and this happened again. How can he be embarrassed?"
"Check it!" Fourth Master's voice was very soft, with a hint of exhaustion, "Let's do a thorough investigation first. Then we'll talk about it after the investigation is clear..."
After Thirteen left, Fourth Master was no longer in the mood to do anything. The children went to take a nap. Lin Yutong put shoes on soft pillows for several children. Children who are just learning to walk need comfortable shoes because they are too soft.
Even if it was too hard, she would hold the small sole in her hand and take it in quickly. When the fourth master came in, he didn't even change his clothes. He just came over, put his pillow on her lap and lay down.
Afraid that the needle would touch him, Lin Yutong put down the needle and thread, "What's wrong?" She raised her hand and touched his forehead, "Isn't it hot?" He felt for the pulse again, and then Fourth Master grabbed her hand and said, "No discomfort.
, I just feel uncomfortable." He took the small sole from Lin Yutong and played with it, his eyes a little lonely, "I always feel that starting over can make up for the regret, but in fact it is not always the case. Some things can be changed, and some things have not.
No."
There is no end to the insufficiency of people's hearts.
Doing it again gave Prince Li's Mansion more grace, but Hong Xi still walked on the old road and never looked back.
Lin Yutong didn't know who he was talking about, but looking at this, she was afraid that there was some clue about the matter. She didn't ask further. There were always the same people. "Everything can be changed, but nature is very hard to change." It's like.
Wasn't it Hongli who didn't try to teach him? He said it, but he still did whatever he wanted. What's the use? This is the case, let alone other people.
"So, even if you try it over a thousand times, you still won't be able to achieve perfection." The fourth master took the child's shoe sole and gestured with it in his own hand, "But that's okay, it seems like something is finally there. I thought about it and let it go. I no longer have any obsession!"
Is this good or bad?
"At least the old friends are still the same old friends, and the old people's hearts have not changed." Lin Yutong said this half-jokingly. It made Fourth Master laugh, "nondescript." What he said was the same thing.
The two of them leaned together, and Fourth Master finally whispered the matter to Lin Yutong, "I asked Thirteen to investigate this matter on Twelve, but when Thirteen came over today... Hong Xi should be involved."
Why did these two people get involved?
Lin Yutong felt sorry for Prince Li. To be honest, she had also observed during this period that the fourth master would invite Prince Li to come when it came to major political matters. The two had discussions. Lin Yutong listened several times and had to admit that the fourth master My evaluation back then was correct, and Prince Li can indeed be regarded as a model.
Such a person has actually wasted half his life. It can be said to be a blessing to meet this fourth master, but unfortunately, something like this happened to his son.
