The Founding of the Red Chamber

Chapter 125 Encounter 4

Lin Jing's convoy was attacked, and as soon as the news of his life and death was spread, the first one to silence was Mrs. Kong, Duke of Kong's mansion.Lin Jing happened in Shandong, Mrs. Kong was determined to avenge her natal nephew and grandson, and Lin Jing must pay for her life.

Alright, something happened to Lin Jing, did your Kong family do it?

Mrs. Kong didn't dare to say anything about Lin Jing at the moment, even if she muttered "I can't bear the retribution" at home, Kong Guogong gave him a fit!

Even the Empress Dowager Kong asked her father in private, it wasn't her family who did it.In fact, Kong Guogong is considered a person with a criminal record, and he wanted to win against Guan Tingyu and Tang before.

However, Lin Jing's matter was really not done by the Kong family.Kong Guogong swears to the sky that it has absolutely nothing to do with his family.The Empress Dowager Kong said, "Father also asked the family to pay attention to it. This child, Ah Jing, can be counted as I watched him grow up. It would be a pity if something happened like this."

Kong Guogong sighed, "Isn't that true? I like to see him on weekdays, but I hate that he was not born in our family. Since he is in Shandong, it is incumbent. I have to write to your aunt's house and help find him. people."

The Empress Dowager Kong also specially called the Yue family into the palace to comfort her, and the Yue family was also very haggard.This little uncle is very considerate on weekdays, the Yue family treats this little uncle like his own son, once something happens, the Yue family can't hold back.

Or Lin Yi, the head of the family.

Lin Yi said, "At this time, it's good news that no one was found."

After all, the Lin family is a big family in Shandong, what's more, there are many old relatives in Shandong.Shu Jingyun personally took people to the place where Lin Jing's accident happened to investigate the case. Speaking of which, Shu Jingyun's efficiency was not low, except that it took some time to go back and forth, which was the time of investigation. When winter came, Lin Jing's news was basically confirmed.

It is not difficult for Yu Shu Jingyun to send troops to flatten the cottage.However, according to Shu Jingyun's investigation, Lin Jing lived quite well in the village, and those bandits were all half-grown children.In today's world, how Shu Jingyun doesn't know.Shu Jingyun also sent a kind heart somehow, and sent a letter to Lin Yi first.This year, Shandong was hit hard by disasters. First, there were floods in spring and summer, and there was no big harvest for one season.Then there was the snowstorm in winter, and Shandong was a place where horses were paid. As far as bandits were concerned, Tu Xiaosan and the others robbed wealth and rarely killed people, so they weren't too bad.

Lin Yi found an errand for disaster relief and came to rescue his younger brother.

At that time, Lin Jing and Tu Xiaosan were discussing how to celebrate the New Year together on the mountain.As a result, his elder brother's guards came up.Tu Xiaosan was also a desperado, so he immediately ordered people to copy the guy to do his best. Lin Jing took a closer look, and stopped him quickly, saying that it was a misunderstanding, and this was his family's guard.

Tu Xiaosi felt strange, since no one came to look for him in the past few months, he felt that maybe Lin Jing's family didn't want him anymore.As a result, the guards came suddenly.

The skills of the guards of the Lin family are by no means comparable to those of the countrymen in the village. When Lin Jing heard that his eldest brother had arrived, his face was full of joy. Seeing his apprentice Xiaosan felt very uncomfortable. He felt that Lin Jing had no heart. How she treated him these past few months, once she heard that her eldest brother was here, she forgot about her third brother.

Lin Jing really didn't forget about Tu Xiaosan, he held his hand and said, "Third brother, let me introduce you to my elder brother."

Tu Xiaosan had more than one murder case. He knew at a glance that Lin Jing's family was an official, and said, "Since your elder brother is here, you will come back right away. I am a bandit after all. If your elder brother doesn't see me, just open your eyes." Just close your eyes, if you see me, take me or not."

Lin Jing said, "You really have been a bandit all your life, why don't you come down the mountain with me, I'll find you a job."

Tu Xiaosan shook his head, "No need." He couldn't hold back his background, besides, Tu Xiaosan believed in Lin Jing, and as for Brother Lin Jing, Tu Xiaosan didn't really believe in him.

Seeing that Tu Xiaosan refused, Lin Jing still missed his elder brother, so he said to Tu Xiaosan, "Then I'll go see my elder brother first, and I'll talk to third brother when I come back."

Tu Xiaosan was a little bit reluctant, but he also knew that at this time, it was not a matter of reluctance, so he watched Lin Jing go down the mountain.

As soon as Lin Jing saw his eldest brother, he immediately rushed forward.

Lin Yi saw that although he was not very particular about the clothes on his body, he looked good, so he felt relieved and said, "It's easy to find."

"I knew that elder brother would definitely find me." Lin Jing happily said while wrapping his elder brother's arm.

Lin Yi's stern eyebrows were tinged with gentleness, and he said, "Since there is nothing wrong, come back with me."

Lin Jingqiao and Lin Yi talked about Tu Xiaosan, Lin Yi said, "I know about him, don't worry about it."

Lin Jing looked at his elder brother's expression and thought that Tu Xiaosan and the others would not leave the mountain anyway, and it would be good to have someone come and let Tu Xiaosan and the others go down the mountain after the arrangements are made.The two brothers were discussing, Tu Xiaosan came down with Zhang Hupi in his arms, and saw Lin Jing standing beside a tall man in black fur, who was so affectionate, Tu Xiaosan saw that the man had serious eyebrows and a good appearance Standing like a spear and standing like a green pine, you know it must be Brother Lin Jing.Tu Xiaosan unconsciously puffed out his chest, gave the tiger skin to Lin Jing, and said, "I wanted to make you a jacket, but I haven't had time to tan the skin, so I'll give it to you."

Lin Jing was at the age of passion, and he was affectionate, so he was even more reluctant to part with his apprentice Xiaosan, and went to persuade his apprentice Xiaosan to go with him.Tu Xiaosan put the tiger skin in Lin Jing's arms and ran back to the mountain.Looking back halfway, seeing Lin Jing still looking at him, Tu Xiaosan thought, after all, he was right to treat Ah Jing, and he really had a conscience.With a fierce wave of his arm at Lin Jing, Lin Yi ran away without a trace.

Lin Yi handed over the tiger skin to the guards and took Lin Jing into the car.

Ask Lin Jing what happened in the first place.

Lin Jing told the truth, and Lin Yi said, "You are conceited. If you didn't have some luck this time, your life will definitely be confessed."

Lin Jing said, "It's a blessing in disguise, so how can I know it's not a blessing? If I hadn't gone through this, I wouldn't have met Brother Tu San." Then he said, "Big Brother, Brother Tu San should treat me well."

Lin Yi poured him a cup of honey water and said, "How do you know about him?"

"What's up with him?"

Lin Yi said, "Do you still remember what was said five or six years ago, the case of killing brothers in Fengrao County?"

Lin Jing had a good memory, even though he was still young at that time, after recalling it carefully, Lin Jing said, "It's about a county under Jinling where a murderer wiped out the two elder brothers' families."

"Yes, it was you, the third disciple, who did it."

Lin Jing almost didn't spill the honey water on his body, he wiped the honey water on his hands with a handkerchief, and said, "I can't, I think he treats Tu Xiaosi very well."

"There must be some reason here. If he is such an inhuman person, how can he treat me like this? I won't say how good I am in the village, but he really treats me well."

Lin Yi said, "His two elder brothers are just stepbrothers."

Lin Jing breathed a sigh of relief, "Let me tell you."

"But you have to know, it's a stepbrother, so the crime should be exterminated. It's your luck that he treats you well, but you should have less contact with such a murderer." Lin Yi didn't like his younger brother to associate with such a person.

Lin Jing said, "As long as Brother Tu San treats me well, I have nothing to fear. I don't think he is unreasonable, and he won't kill me."

Lin Yi said, "That's less contact, you know where you violate his taboo. There are so many people that you can't get along with, and you have to get in touch with this kind of people."

"Brother, don't you pay attention to kindness and obedience? Brother Tu San has taken care of me these days, and you haven't done him any favors."

"It's a benefit if I don't catch him."

After all, Lin Yi cared about his family, so he hurriedly asked about his sister-in-law and nephews, Lin Yi said, "Thank you for remembering, why didn't someone send a letter to my hometown."

Lin Jing said with emotion, "Speaking of which, in the village, Brother Tu San is also obedient to me. Even if I want him to deliver a letter, he will never agree to it."

Lin Yi said, "It can be seen that this person is scheming."

Lin Yi roughly talked to Lin Jing about some family affairs, and when he arrived at the inn where he was resting, he ordered someone to buy clothes for Lin Jing to change into the cotton-padded jacket and trousers on his body.Lin Jing cherished it and told the maid to put it away and not to throw it away.The maid was puzzled, "Why are you still keeping this clothes?"

Lin Jing said, "If you tell you to put it away, put it away, what do you know?" Lin Jing has never seen any good clothes and materials, and these two clothes can be said to be the most common clothes in Lin Jing's life.Life in the village is the worst, and Tu Xiaosan and the others are not the kind of bandits who rob everywhere and don’t give money. On the contrary, Tu Xiaosan is quite business-minded. Pedestrians passing by.Therefore, he also paid money when he went down the mountain to buy.The clothes are ordinary, but they are made of the best muslin material at the foot of the mountain.

Lin Jing's expression was serious, the maid didn't dare to say much, and hurriedly put away the clothes carefully.

When Lin Jing returned to the mansion, the whole family had a lot of fun. Guan Xiaoer came over to see Lin Jing that day, and seeing that he was doing well, he went home with peace of mind.As for how Lin Jing lived these days, Lin Yi also unified his caliber, saying that Lin Jing was saved by someone in the mountains.The Empress Dowager Kong called Lin Jing into the palace, and when she saw that he was safe, the Empress Dowager Kong smiled, "I am relieved." Asked about Lin Jing's experience, Lin Jing told the truth about the assassination.As for the matter in the mountains, Lin Jing said, "The people in the mountains are very kind, and they provide me with food and drink. It's just that I haven't seen the world much. I wanted to ask them to help deliver a letter. Where did they go out of the mountains? I don’t know where to go to the door of my house. I wanted to tell them to go to the yamen, but I was worried that the assassin would not find me and would be wandering outside, so I didn’t dare to move around.”

Lin Jing has always been very wise, his words are reasonable, especially his analysis of the assassin.The Empress Dowager Kong said, "I have to investigate this matter carefully to see who has the guts to assassinate the sons of important court officials."

Lin Jing said, "It's the one I offended first." Then he said, "Your Majesty, don't think too much, it's definitely not Mrs. Kong's. Her old man's heart is nothing more than the matter of Mr. Ying, and that matter was just a coincidence. Kong Guogong and Da Lang have always treated me well, my brother said, if it wasn’t for the help of the Duke, they wouldn’t have been able to find me so quickly.”

The Empress Dowager Kong asked, "Ah Jing, do you know it well?"

"Without proof, it's hard to say."

Concubine Kong asked again, but Lin Jing still didn't say anything. When Lin Jing returned home, Concubine Xie sent some nourishing herbs, all of which were for Lin Jing's health.

Lin Jing sighed, thinking whether he should go to see the old concubine.
