Chapter 143

"Father. 【】" Seeing that Liu Ziming had already left, Lin Rong stepped forward a few steps and walked up to his father.

Lin Hailu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Rong.

Lin Rong glanced at it, and his face suddenly became troubled. "This one who kills thousands of swords is so despicable. This is already the third letter. Lin Zixiang doesn't know who is relying on it, who gave him the courage to dare to do this."

Lin Hailu sighed and said, "Agree to his request and give him money. If there is a chance, kill him; if there is no chance, just let him go for a while. After this period, I will find him slowly." Late."

"But." Lin Rong was anxious.

According to his understanding, this Lin Zixiang is a lion!

The opening is 10 taels.Although the Lin family has raised a lot of money over the years, but this year, there are four festivals, up and down, and there is no need to spend on any item. Now that they are about to change jobs, it is a critical period for them to make progress in Liubu.How can we do without money.If you can't get into the sixth volume, you can't be downgraded and released. This is not only related to your father's future, but also your own future.

Moreover, he already thought that Lin Zixiang must not be so courageous, and there must be someone else behind him.

Since it was someone else, would they have other purposes?Give out the money rashly, if you don't ease the matter, and instead take advantage of their tricks, I'm afraid you will lose both ends.

"No need. Just do it like this. If you hadn't left Lin Zixiang alone to detain the Li family, this kind of thing would never have happened, and Lin Zixiang wouldn't have the guts to betray the Lin family." Lin Hailu accused.

Lin Rong clenched his teeth tightly, feeling very angry.This is not the first time his father has accused him of this incident.However, is this his own fault?Who would have thought that Lin Zixiang would be so courageous?

If you are angry, you can't express your own thoughts.And his father was in a fit of anger, so he didn't dare to stand up to Lin Hailu's anger and go against Lin Hailu's wishes.

Therefore, he could only bow his head in silence, acquiescing to Lin Hailu's statement.I hope Lin Zixiang and his accomplices are just asking for money.

"My lord?" A voice called from outside the door.

Lin Hailu frowned, and raised his voice, "What's the matter?"

"There is a messenger in the capital, saying that he wants to meet the adults."

Lin Rong and Lin Hailu looked at each other nervously, Lin Hailu hurriedly said, "Let him in."

A teacher led a young man in, and then hurriedly backed out.

Lin Hailu and the others were the masters, and only after they completely withdrew did they fall in love with the young man.The young man, wet all over, looks like he came in the rain.

He asked softly, "Who are you?"

"Family in Wu Xiang's mansion, this is a token." After speaking, he handed out a beautiful jade ornament.

Lin Hailu recognized at a glance that it was one of the batch of jade wares that he handled and sent to the Wu Mansion some time ago.

"Please take a seat quickly. This is Lin Rong, the son of the lower official. If you have something to say, please speak face to face." The Wu family actually sent a person down. Naturally, there was an extremely important matter.Lin Hailu didn't bother to greet this man for tea, and after resting, he hurriedly asked him why he came.

The man was not pretentious, bowed to him, took a few steps closer and said, "The Patriarch asked the young one to tell Mr. Lin a few words."

Lin Hailu's expression tightened, and he looked at the man solemnly.

"The first sentence of the original sentence is: In front of the emperor, the second prince accused you of colluding with the Wuling army and robbing houses at night;"

"Ah." Lin Hailu's face turned pale.Lin Rong was also taken aback.

Although this is a fact, it is a very secret fact, where did the second prince know it.How many days has this happened?Not only did it spread to the capital, but it also reached the ears of the emperor?Even if some rumors spread, how could it be so fast?What makes the second prince dare to take this matter up in front of the emperor?

Someone must be playing tricks.

"The second sentence is: The emperor has decreed that Li Daoming, the censor, and Mr. Li, will investigate the matter on his behalf while the examiner is at the same time."

When Lin Hailu heard that the emperor did not believe the words of the second son, he felt as if he had come back from the death line.If you directly control yourself and ask the crime, you will be in big trouble.

"The third sentence is also the last sentence: The Second Prince has sent his confidant and aide, Du Ruhui, to Wuling City."

Lin Hailu patted the table angrily and said, "Too much deception."

Lin Rong asked the man, "Master Wu, do you have anything else to say?"

The man shook his head, but cupped his hands and said, "The letter has been brought, and the boy will return to the capital immediately to report."

Lin Hailu hurriedly waved his hand, Lin Rong took out a hundred taels silver note from his sleeve, and stuffed it into the man's hand.

The man ignored it, then accepted it, and said, "Master Wu asked the villain to deliver the letter, and he returned it immediately. The villain dared not disobey orders. However, the villain also heard some rumors in the capital. , It’s quite a trouble. Before Li Qincha has verified something, I’m afraid that my lord will not dare to go up.”

Lin Hailu laughed hurriedly, "This, the lower officials will save."

"There is another piece of news, I'm afraid it will be of some use to Mr. Lin. I heard that the envoy Li Qin had already rushed to Wuling City two days earlier. Before the imperial decree, make friends with the imperial envoy. The villain is talking too much."

"Where, where. It's too late to be grateful for this reminder!"

The man cupped his hands again, turned and walked out.

Lin Hai recorded the back of the man who disappeared outside the door, and fell back into the seat. The cold sweat on his forehead still couldn't stop flowing out.

"Father, have you not come out yet? There must be someone planning behind this matter, otherwise it only happened a few days ago? The emperor knows about it, and the imperial decree is already on the way. The efficiency is so high? Isn't this aimed at you? And Lin Zixiang's matter, isn't it a bit of a coincidence?"

Lin Hailu stroked the cold sweat on his forehead, and thought for a while before saying, "You mean, Lin Zixiang was given by the second prince's people."

"Isn't there such a possibility? Since the second prince wanted to drive his father away from Wuling City, he might have thought of dealing with his father a long time ago. Lin Zixiang was afraid that he would join the second prince's people before the incident of the Li family. The next thing will happen after the end. Otherwise, how can you explain that the second prince knew about this strange thing in such a short period of time, more than 100 miles away? And then boldly raised this matter in front of the emperor?"

Lin Hailu fought a cold war.He said urgently, "If this is the case, wouldn't it be troublesome? When the imperial envoy arrives, and the second prince hands over Lin Zixiang and the Li family members to the imperial envoy, wouldn't I be waiting to die?"

When this meaning was revealed, both of them were shocked.Wan did not expect that the situation has become so embarrassing.

"How can this be good?"

Lin Rong turned cold, walked to Lin Hailu, and said in a low voice, "Even if Lin Zixiang bites us, he must have evidence. The imperial envoy may not believe his one-sided words. The Li family also It can be said that it was Lin Zixiang's instigation, and it was completely clean. On the other hand, Liu Ziming, Rong'er was a little worried."

"Oh."

"Once our Lin family loses power, this Liu Ziming might vote for the second prince when he sees that he has moved. If that's the case, it will be completely ruined."

"What does Rong'er mean?"

Lin Rong made a gesture of choking his neck, and then quietly said, "Give him Liu Ziming before he is on guard, so as not to cause future trouble. At that time, even if Lin Zixiang jumps out to bite someone, we can clean him up. Just put Let this matter fall on Liu Ziming and Lin Zixiang."

"But those who acted are all Liu Ziming's cronies. Will something happen?"

"No. As long as we make better arrangements and separate Liu Ziming's death from us, then we won't be afraid. Even if they jump out, it's just the collusion between Lin Zixiang and Liu Ziming. Lin Zixiang's matter, if we pursue it, it's nothing It's just asking us about an unknown mistake; Liu Ziming's matter is Zhang He's relationship and has nothing to do with us. The imperial envoy, even if he has some doubts, does he really want to come to the relationship between the crown prince and the second prince? Muddy water?"

"As long as the imperial envoy has an ambiguous attitude, Lord Wu will extend a helping hand. At that time, the prince will speak a few words for his father in front of the emperor to dispel the emperor's doubts. All these troubles will disappear. otherwise."

Lin Hailu rolled his eyes back and forth, it took him a long time to look at Lin Rong, and nodded slightly.
