The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 335 Faraway Altair, Sister Jiao Jiao Lin

Lin Ruhai pushed 256 and completely became the shopkeeper. Upon seeing this, Yi Hong was even more sure that Lin Ruhai had seen the account book. This was obviously a move to protect his own safety. However, it would have been better for Lin Ruhai not to participate, and he would have more room to maneuver in handling the case. .

As a result, Yi Hong took advantage of the situation and put the account book into his arms. Just when he was about to leave, Jia Huan reminded him intentionally or unintentionally: "Sir Yi, Dai Li took the risk outside the Tongshan Mountain that day and sent people pretending to be thieves to attack. Our camp is trying to kill you and me. Now that Kangling City has confessed and the account book has been obtained, but at this time, we must be more careful and beware of those treacherous people jumping over the wall. "

Yi Hong couldn't help but feel shocked when he heard this, and suddenly understood why Jia Huan rushed back at night. The case involved the prince. In order to keep his position as the crown prince, he would probably do anything. Throughout the ages, flesh and blood have fought against each other for the throne. Human relations tragedies abound, not to mention the deaths of several courtiers.

Obviously, Jia Huan is worried about the safety of Lin Ruhai and his daughter!

Thinking of this, Yi Hong couldn't help but broke into a cold sweat and left the flower hall in a hurry. When Jia Huan saw this, he knew that this man was already on guard, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Ruhai looked at the half-circle of autumn moon in the sky through the top of the patio, and sighed: "What an eventful autumn!"

In fact, Lin Ruhai had already read the account book. He thought that Prince Yi Zhong was the biggest person involved in the case. Unexpectedly, even the crown prince was involved in the case. It was really shocking. The most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart, and the most difficult to satisfy. It’s also the human heart.

"Master Lin, how do you think the emperor will deal with it in the end?" Jia Huan asked in a low voice.

Lin Ruhai shook his head with a heavy heart: "The Holy Heart is unpredictable, how can I dare to speculate on my own? It concerns the royal family's face, and the position of the crown prince involves the country's foundation. Huan'er, you are wise to stay out of the matter. This is the best thing. It’s better not to ask any more questions.”

Jia Huan smiled bitterly and said: "As the saying goes, when you are in the arena, you can't help yourself. Huan'er has been deeply involved in the situation. He said that he stayed out of the situation, but he was just hiding his ears and stealing the bell. Does Master Lin think so?"

Lin Ruhai nodded and said apologetically: "That's true. Huan'er, it's impossible for you to completely pick it out now. Alas, I shouldn't have let you get involved in the first place. Now it's too late to regret it!"

Jia Huan shook his head and said, "Everything in the world is like a chess game. One move can affect the whole body. Master Lin is in the middle of the game. Who can fully predict the consequences of every move, so you can't blame Master Lin."

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and smiled bitterly: "Brother Huan, you can see clearly, and it's hard for you to be so calm. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid you would have been in panic all day long."

Jia Huan laughed at himself: "The student is a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, he has already offended Prince Yi Zhong, so it doesn't matter if he has one more prince."

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said: "Brother Huan, there is no need to be so pessimistic. As the saying goes, a boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, and a car will find its way to the mountain."

Jia Huan frowned and said, "But as Master Lin said just now, this matter involves the royal family's reputation, and the position of the crown prince is related to the foundation of the country, so the emperor will most likely not deal with the prince in the end."

Lin Ruhai nodded and said, "That's indeed the case on the surface."

Jia Huan's heart moved and he asked: "What about the actual situation?"

Lin Ruhai just replied cryptically: "How can we allow others to sleep soundly next to the bed?" and said no more.

Jia Huan immediately nodded understandingly. Throughout the ages, struggles involving imperial power have been extremely cruel. Tragedies involving fathers and sons turning against each other and fratricide are the reserved "programs" of almost every dynasty.

Imperial power is supreme and cannot be shared, so the emperor is destined to be alone. Unless he dies or voluntarily abdicates, anyone who cares about the dragon throne is undoubtedly seeking death.

As the crown prince, it is a taboo for a prince to communicate with foreign ministers and amass money. In the eyes of the emperor, it is an unreasonable act. Let me ask you, a prince, the whole country will be yours in the future. What are you doing with all that money now? Could it be that we can’t wait any longer? Are you eager to make money, form gangs, and secretly support your own power?
Therefore, even if Emperor Qian Sheng finally took the royal family's face into consideration and did not deal with the prince publicly, he would still have a thorn in his heart, and he would most likely find other reasons to depose the prince later.

Of course, deposing the crown prince is a national matter, and there is no legitimate and suitable reason. I believe Emperor Qian Sheng will not go to this point easily, but deposing the prince is definitely on the agenda.

Thinking of this, Jia Huan felt a little relieved. After all, offending the future emperor was a very serious matter. As the saying goes, if the king wants his ministers to die, they will have to die. How terrible is feudal imperial power?
Therefore, it is best for the current prince not to sit on the throne in the future, otherwise Jia Huan will have to run away with the bucket, not to mention saving his sisters who are under cover of the Jia Mansion.

"Brother Huan, you've been tired from traveling, so go down and rest first. I'll see your sister Lin tomorrow." Lin Ruhai ordered softly.

Jia Huan saluted and left the flower hall.

Lin Ruhai gently stroked the handle of the Grand Master's chair and sighed worriedly: "The prosperous national destiny of our Jin Dynasty has been reversed, which may not be a blessing to the people."

It has been nearly ninety years since the founding of the Jin Dynasty. It was originally in its heyday. As a result, the sun and the moon were hanging inside, and powerful neighbors emerged outside. The prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River was attacked by bandits. Although the banditry only lasted a few months, the production However, order has been severely disrupted, especially in the production of salt. This year's salt tax revenue has been reduced by at least 30%.

Now that the crown prince has been involved again, it has cast a shadow over the national destiny of the Jin Dynasty. This is not a good sign. Once the crown prince is deposed, there will inevitably be another political storm and a power purge. Coupled with the power struggle between the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor, can the Jin Dynasty still afford it?

......... Jia Huan walked out of the flower hall and walked towards the back house, but saw bright stars, a half-moon in the sky, shadows of trees on the courtyard paths, and the melodious music of the piano gently reached his ears with the night breeze.

Jia Huan couldn't help but stop and listen carefully. The sound of the piano undoubtedly came from Lin Daiyu's residence. It was melodious and sweet. It was a piece of music that she had never heard before. Could it be a newly composed music by Sister Lin?

Jia Huan has basically heard all the songs that Lin Daiyu can play, and he has also written (copied) many modern ancient songs for Lin Daiyu, but he has never heard of this one.

"Altair is far away, a Chinese girl in the bright river. With her slender hands, she is playing tricks..." A dramatic tune suddenly sounded, singing along with the piano music, like the sound of heaven, which instantly gave Jia Huan goosebumps.

The sound was clear and sweet, like an oriole coming out of the valley, with a hint of a child's voice. Jia Huan immediately guessed who was singing, so he followed the sound and looked for it.

At this moment, in the small courtyard where Lin Daiyu lived, there was an incense table placed in the middle. In addition to various fruits, there were also female items such as scissors, needlework and thread. It turns out that tonight is the Qixi Festival, the Qixi Festival, and Daiyu and others are setting up an incense table to worship the moonlight and beg for cleverness according to the custom.

Ping'er and Xiao Yuanyuan also came over to join in the fun. After worshiping the moonlight, the girls ate snacks and played together. Lin Daiyu was in a good mood recently because she saw her father's condition getting better, and Huan's brother also received good news frequently, so she suddenly came to Yaxing. , he took out the guqin and played it, and improvised a song "Altair" from the Han Dynasty to suit the occasion, and also taught Xiao Yuanyuan to sing.

It is said that Xiao Yuanyuan's talent in music is really incredible. She has a very strong sense of music and can master it as soon as she is taught. What's even more rare is that she has a voice as good as nature. As soon as she opens her mouth, she is always aloof and has no ambitions. Sister Lin's eyes were filled with wonder, and Sheshe nodded.

After singing the song, Ping'er and Xueyan couldn't help but clapped their hands.

"Miss Lin plays well, and Yuanyuan sings well, but now we know what it means to have lingering sounds that linger for three days." Qiao Ping'er sighed sincerely.

Xue Yan joked: "Not only three days, but also thirty days." After saying that, he held the round pink face like jade and giggled: "Come, let me see, sister Yuanyuan was afraid in her last life. It must be a thrush, or it is the legendary shark, reincarnated as a mortal in this life, or it has such a beautiful voice. "

Little Yuanyuan was a little embarrassed by the praise, Lin Daiyu chuckled and said: "Yuanyuan, Xueyan's hooves are turning around and calling you a beast, tear her apart!"

"Okay, it turns out that Sister Xueyan is scolding me." Yuanyuan stretched out her hand to tickle Xueyan, and the latter yelled: "I didn't, girl, you arranged it."

Xue Yan screamed and dodged, but Ping'er hugged her waist and said with a smile: "But I caught her."

Yuanyuan took the opportunity to snap a few times, and Xueyan was the most ticklish girl. She shrank into a ball with laughter, and tears were about to flow out. She had to beg for mercy again and again, and then Yuanyuan gave up.

"Damn it, you guys bullied me. I followed my master to earn some love or face. I didn't earn anything. Instead, I was tricked by my master." Xue Yan pouted while arranging her messy hair. .

Ping'er was arranging her hair and said with a smile: "Everyone is joking, but Sister Xueyan takes it seriously."

Lin Dai waved her hand and said with a smile: "Good sister, come here, I love you. One day you will be matched with someone, and I will give you a big red envelope and send you out in a sedan. You will have both face and dignity." "

Ping'er burst into laughter.

"What are you kidding about? You won't take me with you either!" A voice suddenly sounded, startling all the girls.

"Who is where?" Xue Yan lost her voice.

Everyone took a closer look and saw a man slowly walking out from under the shadow of the dancing trees. He was dressed in a green shirt and had a tall figure. He had a familiar smile on his handsome face, as gentle as jade, making him unforgettable.

"Brother Huan (Third Master!)" Everyone exclaimed and covered their mouths in unison.

Jia Huan walked forward casually and said with a smile: "Sister Lin, did you scare you?"

Looking at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of her, Lin Daiyu's beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. It took her a moment to react, and she blushed and said with a heartbeat: "Brother Huan, how early or late did you come back?"

Now Lin Daiyu's heart has long been tied to Jia Huan. As the saying goes, one day is like three autumns apart. What's more, it has been more than two months since Jia Huan left last time. She is worried about her day and night. Now the boy is on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day. Appearing in front of him was as if he was in a dream.

　I have a cold, in one word: tired.
