Tibetan Sea Pearl

The moon is dark and the wind is high, it is a first quarter moon, and the crooked moon hangs on the treetops.

Lin Cheng didn't go out of the city, but approached a small alley on horseback.

Now is the dead of night, many people are asleep, but the alley is not quiet.

Lights were lit in many houses, figures in front of the windows were busy walking around, and many people were still working.

If Yunshan remembers correctly, this is Lantern Alley.

He muttered, "Why do you come here, the people who live here are all low-level craftsmen..." He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Who do you say is an idiot?" Lin Cheng said.

Yun Shan didn't avoid it in fear, but looked around with a playful smile.

"People here don't sleep most of the night, mainly because they are afraid of disturbing you, young master, to rest."

The old man who was following the two of them also remembered this place. A private house of the Lin family was in Lantern Alley. As the name suggests, Lantern Alley was full of handicraftsmen who made lanterns.

People from the Lin family have never lived here, so I don't know if it's deserted or not.

Soon, Lin Cheng led them to stop at the gate of a house, got off the horse and reached out to knock on the door gently.

Didn't expect someone to respond.

There was joy on everyone's faces.

Someone opened the door and came out.

It's Namatsu.

Nan Song is also back.

Today is really a good day to reunite after a long absence. First, I went back to the Lin Mansion to see Zongbing Lin, and then I met Nan Song here. I haven't seen him for more than half a year, and Nan Song has also left for more than half a year.

As the old man got older, he was even more excited. He wept with joy, "Ah Song has grown taller."

"Uncle Xu." Nan Song chuckled, still according to the etiquette, he paid homage to the young master first, and then came over to help Uncle Xu lead the horse.

"You kid, you've been walking for so long." Yun Shan stepped forward and punched him.

Nan Song didn't dodge, a backhand scissors grabbed the man's hand, making him unable to move.

"You, you have to practice again." Nan Song pushed him away with some disgust.

Spruce is no match for Nansong.

Several people immediately laughed, walked in the door, the house was tidied up by Nansong, although it was simple, it was better than clean.

After settling in, Uncle Xu called a servant to deliver a letter to the housekeeper at the Lin Mansion, saying that the young master is staying at Lantern Alley, so that the family members should not worry.

Uncle Xu watched the servant go out with the letter, turned around and shook his head.

It's really worrying, the father and son haven't seen each other for so long, and they quarreled as soon as they met. The young master is also an official, and he ran away from home if he disagreed with him.

The grudge between the father and son is getting deeper and deeper.

Compared to Xu Bo's long-winded, Nan Song is a little nervous.

The young master asked him to stay here and stare at him. Since he is here, what happened in the capital, what trends, even the smallest details, such as any dude on the street who fell in love with someone's girl, whoever fights with whomever, he will Describe it to the young master in the letter.

Did he write in the letter in a mess, it was too trivial.

The young master has a lot of letters to read every day, as well as the documents of officials from various places below, including official and private matters, the young master can't read them all. If he reads every letter, the young master will go blind.

But Nansong knew that the young master had personally read his letters, and sometimes he would reply to them.

In order to be able to write a good letter to the young master, he also specially practiced his handwriting, and the old man even praised his handwriting as getting better and better.

But it's all right now, the young master is here, so you don't need to write a letter if you have anything to do.

Nansong was nervous but did not hesitate, and told Lin Cheng what he had learned through the transfer of connections over time without leaving any traces. As for what happened before, he had mentioned it in the letter, and there was no need to repeat it.

The young master may not have so much time and patience to listen to him.

This time, Deputy General Liang was assassinated to death. In order to confirm whether the news was true, their people also saw the corpse of Deputy General Liang with their own eyes, and confirmed that the knife wound on it was caused by a weapon commonly used by Tartars. The dead body, and the reactions of those around it.

Lin Zongbing was also very sad and had been depressed.

"Where's my stepmother? What's her reaction?" Lin Cheng asked.

Nan Song thought about it seriously, "I didn't cry or shout, it doesn't look too sad."

"It would be strange if she cried and shouted." Lin Cheng smiled.

Nan Song understood that the stepmother is not the mother, and the relationship with the son-in-law itself is not close. The son-in-law is someone else's son, and if he loses it, he loses it. The reaction of the stepmother is normal.

If you are crying and shouting, there is a problem here, it is acting.

"Master, do you think there is any problem here?" Nansong was worried that there was something missing, "I even asked someone to go there in person just to confirm."

"You have read it and confirmed that Vice-General Liang is dead. He is really dead." Speaking of this, Lin Cheng was silent for a moment, "Next, I will bury him properly and put him in peace."

The one who deserves to be granted the title, and the title of wife and son, also wants to come back.

Lin Cheng closed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and for a moment he called Yunshan loudly.

Spruce comes in from the outside.

"Is she settled?" Lin Cheng asked.

This she is none other than Second Miss Su.

"According to the young master's instructions, everything has been settled, and people have already stayed at the inn." Yun Shan said.

Lin Cheng's complexion improved a lot.

Yunshan rubbed her head and thought for a while, "Should we send some money to Second Miss Su?"

For Su Yue, the capital city can be said to be unfamiliar, with no relatives and no place to live.

Going out, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Lin Cheng proposed to let Su Yue live in another house of the Lin family, which is the private house in Lantern Hutong, but Su Yue declined.

"No, for her, a house is the same as money." Lin Cheng didn't care, a smile appeared on his face.

As long as Su Yue can decline the house, he can also decline the money.

This girl is different from other girls.

……

For 16-year-old Su Yong, the capital city is a completely unfamiliar place, and she has been thousands of miles away from home.

At home, she had already written a letter back to report that she was safe.

The next step is how to settle in the capital.

She told outsiders that the Su family had business in the capital, and she came to take care of it this time, but in fact, this was just a plausible rhetoric.

How can the Su family have any business in the capital?

Su Qing and Mr. Huang partnered to buy goods from the south and buy goods from the north. In other words, Su Qing bought some goods from the south in Guangzhou and entrusted the fleet to transport them to the capital. Running back and forth, on the road for more than half a year, Su Qing doesn't interfere in the affairs of the capital at all, whether the goods can be sold or not is Mr. Huang's own business.

Su Yue looked down and fiddled with the beads on her hand.

It's better to find a way to meet Mr. Huang first.

"Second Miss." Hong Jiao's voice came from behind.

She looked back, and Hongjiao ran up the stairs holding a stack of clothes and something like that.

"Master Lin sent it." Hongjiao said happily, and added, "He personally delivered it downstairs."

"Why doesn't he come in and sit down?" Su Yue asked casually, and also stood up.

What Lin Cheng sent over were some ready-made clothes, which looked like they were bought ready-made according to her figure from a tailor shop, but the materials and needlework were all very good.

Hong Jiao stared and walked over, "How dare he come? You don't accept it when you send it over."

Being rejected is a very ruthless thing, very embarrassing.

Su Yue was amused by her, "This is different from the house."

Are they two different things? Why can't she understand that it's all a gift from a friend, Hong Jiao didn't care about it, and put the clothes on the table.

"Actually, Mr. Lin has entered the palace."

Enter the palace?

It must be because of his leaving his post without authorization.
