The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Lin Mansion

Baochai: "When our ancestors celebrate their birthdays later in the year, they will all come over."

Tan Chun: "Yesterday, I heard from Sister-in-Law Feng that the oiran lady Brother Lin met in Jinling has come to the capital. The Lin residence must be very lively now."

Xichun hurriedly asked: "Didn't you say that her whereabouts are unknown? Why did you suddenly come to the capital again?"

Baoyu: "Do you still need to ask? Brother Lin must have set up a golden house to hide her beauty. First let her avoid the limelight, and now let her get started."

Yingchun: "The oiran lady must be very beautiful if he can be admired by Brother Lin."

Tanchun: "I guess she must be both talented and beautiful, so that Brother Lin will take a fancy to her."

Baoyu said with jealousy: "No matter how beautiful she is, can she be more beautiful than Sister Lin?"

Baochai jokingly said: "That's not necessarily true, Sister Yun can beat Sister Lin."

When Baoyu heard this, he became depressed. The last time he went to Linyuan Houzhai, he couldn't see the sister of the Qin family, which really made him uncomfortable.

...

When the few people were chatting, Aunt Xue's personal maid, Tongxi, walked in through the curtain, and said anxiously to Baochai, "Girl, something is wrong. Our uncle was taken by his nephew and young master to Dongcheng Bingmasi."

Baochai stood up suddenly and said in panic: "How is this possible?"

Tan Chun: "Brother Lin and Brother Xue have such a good relationship, why would they lead someone to arrest him?"

Baoyu also said: "Didn't Brother Lin work in the Zuowuwei of the Beijing Camp? When did he transfer to the Dongcheng Bingma Division?"

Tongxi: "I don't even know about this. The boy who accompanied the uncle ran back and told grandma. Grandma asked the servant to invite the girl to go back and discuss."

Baochai hurriedly bid farewell to several people, and followed Tongxi back to Lixiangyuan.

As soon as she walked into her mother's bedroom, she saw Aunt Xue holding her hand and crying, "Your brother was arrested by Brother Yun and sent to Dongcheng Bingma Division. What do you think should be done?"

Baochai hurriedly said, "Mother, don't be in a hurry, let me explain clearly what's going on first?"

Aunt Xue: "Your bastard brother went to the Guanyin Temple in the outer city with Brother Rong from the East Mansion and a few descendants of the old man. gone."

Baochai comforted her, "Mother, don't worry, since Big Brother Lin led someone to arrest her, there must be nothing serious."

Aunt Xue: "I'm worried about this. Last time your aunt ordered him not to enter the house, and I didn't let your brother go to play with him. Do you think he took someone to arrest your brother because he hated me? "

Baochai shook his head and said: "Absolutely not, Brother Lin is not this kind of person."

Aunt Xue: "Since he dared to treat your aunt like that, what's the point of taking your brother away now?"

"This~"

Baochai also felt a little weak. Lin Yun had been very cruel to her aunt. If he really hated his mother, he might actually take action on his brother.

Just when she was hesitating, the servant girl Tonggui ran in quickly and said to Aunt Xue: "Grandma, the uncle sent a servant back to report and asked you to take 200 taels of silver to Wucheng Bingmasi to redeem him and Uncle Xiao Rong." .”

Aunt Xue hurriedly asked: "Did Pan'er suffer in the Wucheng Military Division?"

Tonggui: "The boy said that I was punched a few times by officers and soldiers when I was escaping. After joining the Army and Horses Division, I didn't endure the hardship."

Aunt Xue: "This scoundrel, what kind of nun is he going to see when he has nothing to do?"

Baochai hurriedly said, "Mother, hurry up and give the boy some silver to redeem him."

"Yes, yes, it is important to redeem people first."

...

Chapter 2 Forty-eight: Looking forward to someone fighting

Around late afternoon, Qiu Liang, who was full of wine and food, brought his second general Heng Ha back to the Dongcheng Bingma Division, ready to watch Lin Yun's jokes.

As soon as the three of them entered the main hall, they saw Qian Chang, a clerk, coming out of the corner door and saw Qiu Liang and the others.Qian Chang came forward and said anxiously: "Your Excellency, you have come back just in time, and my subordinate has something to report to you."

Qiu Liang asked hurriedly: "But Deputy Commander Lin made a big mistake?"

Qian Chang said with a strange expression: "This subordinate can't say whether this is good or bad."

Lu Dajiang said anxiously: "If you have any trouble, hurry up. What went wrong over there, Deputy Commander Lin?"

Qian Chang: "Deputy Commander Lin released all five teenagers arrested in the morning~"

Before Qian Chang finished speaking, Lu Dajiang said contemptuously: "He also knows fear!"

Qian Chang: "They were released, but Deputy Commander Lin fined them 600 taels of silver."

Zhang Yunshan: "How much did you say the fine was?"

"600 taels of silver."

Qiu Liang hurriedly asked, "Did you receive the money?"

"One tael is not missing, all 600 taels of silver have been received."

Lu Dajiang widened his eyes and said, "No way? Who are so easy to talk to?"

Zhang Yunshan said excitedly: "Great, I haven't seen any meat in my part for several months, this is my urgent need."

Lu Dajiang said anxiously: "My trilogy is also going through hardships, so I must share [-]% of this money."

After they finished speaking, they both looked at Qiu Liang eagerly, waiting for him to speak.

Qiu Liang asked Qian Chang, "Has Deputy Commander Lin put the silver into the treasury?"

Qian Chang: "I only won half of it, and the rest was given to Deputy Commander Lin as a reward."

Qiu Liang said angrily: "Nonsense! Does he still see me as a commander?"

After a pause, Qiu Liang said again: "Come here, call Deputy Commander Lin over to me."

Qian Chang hurriedly said: "My lord, Deputy Commander Lin took people to Jinxiangyuan again."

"Uh, he wants to arrest people?"

Zhang Yunshan said with a smile: "My lord, I feel that this is very good. Deputy Commander Lin is in charge of arresting people. Let's share the money accordingly. How great it is."

Lu Dajiang laughed and said, "I hope he can catch a few more this time."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion coming from outside the lobby.

Qiu Liang rushed to Lu Dajiang and said, "Old Lu, go and see what happened?"

Lu Dajiang ran out quickly to inquire, and after a while, he ran back and said urgently: "My lord, it's too bad, Deputy Commander Lin has arrested the young prince Ning Heng and the son of Zhongshun Prince Ning Hu of Prince Xuan's mansion. "

When Qiu Liang heard this, he almost fainted from the fright. He hurriedly told several people, "I'm not feeling well, and I have to go back to recuperate for a few days. The office affairs will be handled by Deputy Commander Lin for the time being."

After saying that, he ran out the door without looking back.

Lu Dajiang and Zhang Yunshan glanced at each other, and both raised their hands to cover their foreheads, "My head hurts! I need to go back and rest."

After finishing speaking, the two also oiled the soles of their feet and ran away in a hurry.

Seeing this, Qian Chang cursed secretly in his heart, "When dividing money, one person is more active than the other, and when things happen, he fights to be a coward. What a villain."

...

In the office, Lin Yun sat behind the table, and asked Ning Heng and Ning Hu who were standing in front of them: "Tell me, why did you fight in Jinxiang Yuan?"

Ning Hu said with disdain: "Lin Yun, you, a small deputy commander of the Military and Horse Division, have what qualifications do you have to interrogate me?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Ning Hu, are you sure that you are the boss and you are the second?"

Ning Hu raised her chin, and said with a serious face: "Anyway, you are not qualified to interrogate the young master. If you are sensible, let me go quickly. Otherwise, the young master will let you go around without food."

"is it?"

Lin Yun sneered, and then shouted loudly: "Come here."

Chu Mingshao took a step forward and said, "What are your orders, sir?"

Ning Hu laughed mockingly: "Lin Yun, do you still want to hit me?"

Lin Yun picked up the brush on the desk, smiled at Ning Hu and said, "You are the Crown Prince, so of course I dare not hit you."

Ning Hu said proudly, "You're a smart boy."

Lin Yun said again: "However, I am going to write a letter to Prince Zhongshun, asking him to send 100 taels of silver to redeem you."

Ning Hu said urgently: "How dare you!"

Lin Yun sneered, "Ning Hu, do you think I dare not write this letter?"

Ning Heng said happily at the side: "Brother Lin, if you dare to write quickly, I will send someone to help you deliver it later."

Lin Yun glared at Ning Heng and scolded: "Don't be happy, you have to pay 100 taels of silver. If you miss one tael, I will write to your ancestor and ask him to send someone to redeem you."

Ning Heng said urgently: "Brother Lin, it was Ning Hu who challenged me first today, and I have reason to do so."

Ning Hu: "Fart, it's clear that you came here to grab a prostitute from me."

Ning Heng: "The prostitute doesn't belong to your family. Whoever pays more money, she will perform for him. Isn't that wrong?"

"I called the prostitute first."

"I gave a lot of money."

The two of them were quarreling so much that Lin Yuntian felt dizzy. He raised his hand and slapped the table and said, "Stop quarreling."

After both of them calmed down, Lin Yun said straightforwardly: "According to the rules of our Dongcheng Army and Horse Division, anyone who is arrested for disrupting order, regardless of whether they are justified or not, must pay 100 taels of food for food."

Ning Hu: "I won't hand it in."

"It's fine if you don't pay, I'll send someone to find the prince right away."

When Ning Hu heard this, she immediately fainted. Don't look at him being arrogant and domineering outside, but when he saw his father, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.

Lin Yun asked Ning Heng again: "What about you? Do you hand it in yourself, or let the prince send someone to do it for you?"

Ning Heng: "I don't have any money with me, please allow me to go back and send someone to bring it."

Ning Hu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't bring any money either."

Lin Yun smiled and said: "It's okay, you can pay the IOUs, I'm not afraid of your refusal."

Ning Heng said discouragedly: "You are cruel!"

After speaking, he took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, took out one and placed it on the table.

Immediately, he teased Ning Hu again: "Ning Hu, do you want me to pay the ransom for you?"

Ning Hu: "Don't say it's 100 taels, I can get 1 taels."
