After Lin Jue left, four or five people suddenly poured into the hall. Second Young Master Lin Song, Huang Changqing, Zhao Liancheng and others rushed in impatiently and asked the head of the family about the outcome of the conversation.
Lin Boyong held the tea cup and drank tea in sips with thoughtful eyes. In fact, he was in a very bad mood at the moment. On the one hand, he was stimulated by the unceremonious words Lin Jue just said. On the other hand, Lin Boyong also
He was very frustrated, because after all, Lin Jue was a member of the Lin family and the son of his own brother. He was unable to protect him, so he could only kick him out regardless of life and death. This gave Lin Boyong a lot of frustration.
"Dad, has he agreed? In fact, according to me, there is no need to discuss anything with him. We can just use the evidence to expel him from the house. Why should we talk to him? He has done so many bad things and brought trouble to our Lin family.
Can you give him face?" Lin Song said repeatedly.
"Shut up! You idiot!" Lin Boyong cursed.
Lin Song was scolded, so he shrank back, scratched his head and defended himself: "Why did dad scold me for no reason? What did I do wrong?"
Lin Boyong shouted angrily: "I'll tell you something you don't want to hear. None of your brothers are as good as Lin Jue. It's a pity that he is just a bastard, and you are just lucky."
Lin Song's expression changed immediately after hearing these words. Just when he was about to argue and talk back, Huang Changqing hurriedly interrupted and changed the topic.
"Master, did Lin Jue agree to withdraw voluntarily?"
Lin Boyong glanced at Huang Changqing, stretched out his hand and pointed at the paper in front of him and said: "He has written a statement of breakup. From now on, he is no longer a member of my Lin family. Alas!"
"Oh? That's great. Isn't this just the right way to solve this matter quietly? Congratulations, head of the family, congratulations to the head of the family, this matter is finally settled. Today is the last day of the deadline given by the prince, and finally there is no need.
I'm worried." Huang Changqing cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"Congratulate me? Congratulate me? Where does the joy come from?" Lin Boyong looked at Huang Changqing coldly and said.
Huang Changqing was startled and laughed awkwardly.
"My Lin family can't even protect a bastard. If something goes wrong, I can only kick him out of the house. Is this something worth celebrating? This is the misfortune of the Lin family and the shame of the Lin family." Lin Boyong pounded the table heavily.
After punching him, he let out a long sigh, stood up and went straight back to the back hall.
Lin Song, Huang Changqing, Zhao Liancheng and others looked at each other in confusion. After a while, Lin Song said: "What's wrong with dad? Are you sad for Lin Jue?"
Huang Changqing smiled and said: "The head of the family attaches great importance to everyone in the Lin family. Naturally, he is sad when something like this happens. Second Young Master, it's okay now. Lin Jue will be severely punished by the palace, and he will no longer be a member of the Lin family. The third room will be fine now."
There is absolutely no one left.”
Lin Song smacked his lips and frowned: "What do you want to say?"
Huang Changqing smiled and said: "I didn't say anything."
…
On a late autumn night, the night wind brought a slight chill across the treetops, and among the treetops with most of their leaves fallen, a whistle that could only be made in the cold winter came out from the treetops.
In the dark room, Lin Jue sat quietly on a chair, immersing himself in the dark night.
After returning to the courtyard, Lin Jue gave Lu Wu a smiling face. Faced with Lu Wu's inquiry, Lin Jue also gave her a reassuring answer. Lin Jue did not intend to tell Lu Wu his predicament. He did not want to let her know.
The girl is worried. Just now, he has written several letters. One is to the Fang family, one is to Lu Wu, and the other is to Wangyue Tower. If he cannot come back tomorrow, then these three letters
The letters will be discovered by Lu Wu, and she will definitely deliver them to her one by one.
Lin Jue had to do this because he didn't know what he would encounter tomorrow and he had to prepare for the worst. In fact, Lin Jue felt a little regretful and depressed at the moment. How could he suddenly reach such a point? A few days ago, he had
I thought everything was going well, but after tonight, I found that everything had gone terribly wrong.
Thinking carefully about the past few months after his rebirth, Lin Jue admitted that he acted a little more radically, but this was based on the lessons learned in his previous life. Lin Jue adjusted his life strategy. But there were some things that he had not experienced or happened in his previous life, such as the courtesan.
Competitions, such as Prince Liang's Mansion. This life is completely different from the previous life. Many things have spawned other branches. I can only act according to the circumstances and have no experience to refer to, so I have reached this point step by step.
Lin Jue thought a little discouragedly, maybe what he had experienced was a life destined to fail. The caution in the previous life allowed him to live for more than ten years, but this life was the worst choice? Even about to
Heading towards a dead end?
But Lin Jue quickly rejected this extremely pessimistic idea. Thinking like this is a kind of self-defeating mentality. He has two lives of experience and a huge accumulation of knowledge that others have never had, but he has managed to get to where he is today.
At this point, this is obviously my own problem, not some fate. How could I be willing to do this?
But if there is any opportunity, he must seize it in order to reverse the situation. When he goes to Prince Liang's Mansion tomorrow, he must find a way to calm Prince Liang's anger so that he can turn the corner. At least he will not lose his life.
However, what kind of person King Liang is, whether he will listen to his own ideas, and how he plans to deal with himself are all unknown. In short, tomorrow is a dangerous day and a fateful day.
In the early morning, the dawn of the autumn sun illuminated the city of Hangzhou. It was another beautiful late autumn day with bright sunshine and fresh air. Lin Jue finished washing in the corridor as usual, then sat in the small courtyard and ate sugar cakes and millet porridge made by Lu Wu.
After eating, I put on my outer robe and went to the yard.
Lin Hu took out the book basket and carried it on his back as usual, and wanted to go to the academy with Lin Jue. However, Lin Jue waved his hand and asked him to take the book box back to his room.
"I won't go to the academy today. Xiaohu, you have a day off today. You can go back and visit your parents and sister later. Lu Wu brought some gifts back to Xiaohu to express our feelings."
"Why don't you go to the academy? The academy is not on holiday today." Lin Hu asked, blinking.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "The academy doesn't have a holiday. Can't I give myself a holiday? I want to go to the city alone today and don't need you to accompany me. Don't be in a daze. Don't you miss your parents? Pack up quickly and go back and take a look.
them."
Lin Hu's face showed joy and he said hurriedly: "That's great, then I can go back to see my parents and sister. But, uncle, can you really do it alone? You don't need me to follow you?"
Lin Jue walked towards the door with a smile: "Before you came, could it be that I couldn't move even an inch? I just walked around casually. I went."
Lin Jue went out. Lu Wu stood on the corridor in a daze. Lin Hu moved the book box into the house. When passing by Lu Wu, Lu Wu suddenly said: "Xiaohu, do you think the young master is weird?"
Lin Hu blinked and scratched his head and thought for a while, "No, what's wrong?"
Lu Wu spat: "You are heartless, that's all, I won't tell you anymore. Go get the cloth bag. The dried dates and pomegranates I bought a few days ago, and by the way, there are also three-foot flowers."
Take all the cloth back to your mother and ask your mother to make a flower coat for your sister."
…
Lin Jue came out of the yard, and the mule cart that usually parked at the entrance of the yard disappeared. Lin Jue naturally knew what was going on. Jiao Da would not appear by his side again.
Jiao Da is the informant around him, and he must have completely grasped his whereabouts during this period. He once suspected this, but unfortunately he did not take action. But in fact, Lin Jue also understood that even without Jiao Da's tip-off, those who
In fact, it is not difficult to find out. At the time, I thought it was perfect, but in retrospect, it was indeed full of loopholes.
Lin Jue slowly walked out of the house and walked to the street. In the early morning, white steam was steaming on the Xihe River, and boats were busy coming and going. There was an endless flow of people on the street, including those carrying vegetables, those carrying goods, those carrying bags, and those carrying baskets, all in a hurry, all for
Lin Jue stood among them and felt a sense of desolation, all alone in the world. But this feeling of desolation only lasted for a moment, and Lin Jue shook his head to wave it away, waved for a big car, and got in.
Go straight to Prince Liang's Mansion in the southwest of the city.
In front of Prince Liang's Mansion, the high-level bronze gate made people look up at it. Beside the door were two huge unicorn auspicious beasts, teeth and claws dancing. On the steps of the mansion gate, several palace guards stood guard with long knives. When Lin Jue stepped closer, the guards
His sharp eyes fell on the young man who was trying to get closer.
"You are not allowed to trespass in the important territory of the royal palace." someone shouted.
Lin Jue still walked up the steps step by step. Several guards looked nervous and put their fingers on the spring of the scabbard.
"Please tell Prince Liang that Lin Jue, a common man, has come to plead guilty." Lin Jue cupped his hands and said.
Lin Jue, a common man, did not arouse the interest of the guards. Adding a cat or a dog after the common man made no difference, but "asking for forgiveness" did arouse their curiosity.
"You mean you came to plead guilty?"
"Exactly, the common people have offended the prince, and the prince is trying to get me, so I took the initiative to come to the door. Please let me know." Lin Jue said calmly.
The guards rolled their eyes. There is nothing strange in the world, but there is such a thing. One of the guards hurriedly went inside to report. After a while, a burly guard came out. This person was Shen Tan, the commander of the palace guards. Ordinary guards did not
Knowing this, Shen Tan knew everything, so after hearing the guard's report, Shen Tan quickly went out to check.
"Are you Lin Jue?" Shen Tan shouted.
"It's guaranteed to be replaced if it's fake." Lin Jue said.
A smile appeared on Shen Tanhei's dignified face, and he immediately shouted loudly: "Here, take it, search it, and tie it up."
A series of orders were issued, and the well-trained guards rushed forward in an instant and caught Lin Jue. They searched Lin Jue's body with big hands, and then tied him into a rice dumpling with five-flowered bindings.
"I'm just a scholar with no power, is this necessary?" Lin Jue said with a bitter smile.
"Take him in." Shen Tan ignored him at all and waved his hand and ordered.
