Lin Tingli is Lin Tingxun's younger brother, he was fifty years old at the time, he was in the prime of life who knew the destiny of heaven, he was burly, his hair crown almost touched the lintel when he entered the door, his face was full of meat, and the skin on his face was not smooth, full of fine bumps, and his face was very fierce, he came in and slashed at Lin Xuzong is a sentence: "You are really my eldest brother's good son!" He shook his sleeves and turned around to say goodbye to a few sisters-in-law, and then walked into the inner wing room proudly and asked Lang Zhong: "How is my eldest brother's condition?" ”

Lin Xuzong scolded his head sharply, just like a basin of snow water splashed on his head in this cold season, stunned.

Lin Jian watched the second master of the Lin family walk into the inner wing, and he felt that he came so quickly.

Shiliang County is the easternmost county of Dongyang Prefecture, embedded between Jiangning, Weiyang and Huai'an, although it belongs to Dongyang Prefecture, it is 300 miles away from Dongyang Prefecture. The Lin family found that Lin Tingxun was ill when the rooster crowed in the early morning, and at that time they sent someone to report to the second master of the Lin family, so it was enough to whip the horse and whip it on the road without pausing at all, with such a burly figure of the second master of the Lin family, it was possible to kill two good horses.

Lin Tie naturally didn't believe that the second master of the Lin family had a great brotherly affection for Lin Tingxun, and Lin Tingli rarely went back to the forest every year except for the ancestor worship day. Lin Tingli came in and scolded Lin Xuzong, it was really powerful, let Lin Xuzong's yellow mud fall out of the crotch of his pants was not but, Lin Tingxun would just be able to relieve his breath, if Lin Tingxun just let go of his hands and return to heaven, Lin Xuzong would be guilty of unfilial piety......

The second master of the Lin family rushed back to prevent Lin Xuzong from taking the throne!

Lin Lian thought about what the sixth lady said in the inner wing just now, and directly led Lin Tingxun's illness to Lin Xuzong, and Lin Tingli came back and said to Lin Xuzong, they are in a group? Yesterday, the crow Wu Qi personally lurked in the courtyard of the ancestral hall to scout the movements of the Lin family, and it was determined that Lin Tingxun fell in the east side hall of the ancestral hall, which should have caused the root of the disease, but the specific situation was only known to Lin Zonghai, Gu Changshun and Lin Xuzong, who were also in the east side hall at that time. Which one between Lin Zonghai and Gu Changshun told the sixth lady the details, and who asked the messenger to go to Dongyang Mansion to tell Lin Tingli the details?

Gu Changshun is not like this, for him, Lin Tingxun died, and he took advantage of the situation to fall to Lin Xuzong, the second son who was originally designated as a continuator, and he was the safest, and there was nothing rich and noble for him to fight.

Lin Zonghai? There is only Lin Zonghai left, who seems to be loyal to Lin Ting, and his scheming is not shallow.

Lin Zonghai has the closest relationship with Lin Xuwen, the eldest prince who is in the criminal department in Beijing, in addition to his relatives, he also has in-laws, but Lin Xuwen is in Yanjing, two thousand miles away, and he can't reach what happened in Shanglin, maybe after Lin Tingxun died, he would go back to Shanglin to live in filial piety for three years, but when he came back, the cucumbers and vegetables were cold.

Lin Zonghai may not be helping Lin Xuwen.

If Lin Zonghai unites with the Sixth Lady and Lin Tingli to prevent Lin Xuzong from ascending to the throne and label Lin Xuzong as unfilial, if Lin Tingxun can't get up this time, either the eldest son Lin Xuwen will return to Shanglin to take care of the family business, or Lin Tingxun's ten-year-old young son Lin Xuxi will be pushed up as a puppet, and the Sixth Lady, Lin Tingli and Lin Zonghai can manage everything behind the scenes. Lin Tingli was probably reluctant to give up the official position of Dongyang Mansion and return to Dongyang Mansion City, so isn't it Lin Zonghai who covers the sky with one hand in the forest? What a good plan.

Lin Lian glanced at the sixth lady who was hiding her face with an embroidered handkerchief and her eyes were red and swollen, the sixth lady was named Shan Rou when she was in the boudoir, Fang Ling was only twenty-six years old, she was the most lush and bewitching age of a woman, her face was as delicate as the person in the painting, her face was pink and red lips, her eyes were wavering, she was wearing a brocade forged jacket and a gold-embroidered red-edged vest, her waist was slightly tight, although she was wearing a cold coat, her chest was also bulging, which made people can't help but take another look.

Lin Tie felt that although Lin Tingxun was lying in bed at this time, he enjoyed a rare blessing in the world in his later years, not to mention the seventh lady, the eldest lady, the second lady, and the fourth lady died early, the fifth lady and the sixth lady were all beautiful in a thousand, and the third lady was half old, and she could vaguely see the demeanor of the year.

It is enough for a man to mix with Lin Tingxun in this life, Lin Jian remembered that he was still single when he was shot in his previous life, and he finally met a girl on a blind date, or the other party couldn't hold back the hints before stealing meat twice in the park.

Thinking that the sixth lady was a weak and weak woman, and she was not a person who could endure loneliness, Lin Jian smiled secretly, thinking that it was really interesting now. Lin Xuzong, who longed for Lin Tingxun to die early, probably hoped that Lin Tingxun would get better at this time, otherwise the on his crotch would really not be wiped clean.

"Master Lin's disease, there is nothing he can do about it, so he can only prescribe medicine to see if it has any effect......"

Looking at Chen Yuting, the most famous Langzhong in Shanglindu, shook his head and sighed in front of several ladies, which means that Lin Tingxun is already lucky to be able to survive in bed for some time, and it is too luxurious to stand up again.

Regardless of whether Lin Tingxun is bedridden from now on, or will die in two days, there is no disadvantage to the Seventh Lady. Even if Lin Zonghai, the sixth lady and Lin Tingli join forces to label Lin Xuzong as unfilial, Lin Xuzong is by no means powerless to resist, the third lady is the main family, how can she not help her own son? These two sides are on equal footing, and the eldest prince is an uncertain factor in Yanjing, and Gu Yingsleeve, the seventh lady with Gu Wuchen as a backer, has become a person who neither side wants to offend.

Lin Tingli stayed in the inner wing room for a while before coming out, his eyes saw that Lin Xuzong's face was stinky, and after a while, he noticed Lin Bin: "You are the kid of the Lin family's cultivator!" The boy has a future, he was lifted at a young age, and he has the courage to do things, and his future achievements will definitely be above me. ”

"The second master has won the award, Lin Jian is lucky, and he is not as talented as the second master back then." Lin Tie can be sure that Lin Tingli knows about the past few days in the forest from the mouth of the messenger, Lin Tingli used to only return to the forest every year when he worships his ancestors, and he is a side branch disciple who has come out of the five suits, and he is not qualified to enter the ancestral hall when he worships his ancestors, even if Lin Tingli has seen himself, he probably won't leave any impression.

Lin Tingli then cared about Lin Lian's plans for the future with the attitude of an elder, as if he heard for the first time that Lin Lian had expelled his eldest brother from the forest because of the big trouble in the mule and horse market the night before, and said in surprise: "My eldest brother is not fair, if I am you, it is nothing more than such a reaction, what is the crime?" Kindly pressed Lin Lian's shoulder, "If you want to work for the Lin family, you have to stay in Dongyang to find a background, I will do it for you, don't bear the responsibility of the head of the family, wake up and blame you for not leaving the forest......"

Lin Tingli was sentenced from the Dongyang Mansion of the Five Grades, and his status in the officialdom of Dongyang Mansion was only slightly lower than that of the prefect Shen Rong and the same governor Dong Qin. Although Lin Tingli and his brother Lin Tingxun are not peaceful, they represent the interests of the Lin family to the outside world. If it was replaced by Lin Tie in front of him, he would have no ambitions, and he would not have any responsibilities, and he would obey the arrangements of the family, but he would not worry about not having a good background.

Lin Lian smiled and rejected Lin Tingli's wooing, and said: "Loyalty is good for action, the advice of the head of the family is still in my ears, the head of the family may see that I lack some experience, how can I not know what to do?" When the head of the family is a little better, I will leave Dongyang Mansion and go to Jiangning to find a ......."

Lin Tingli's face was cloudy, and he laughed again in an instant: "Okay, if you have ambition, the men of the Lin family should go out and seek a great future......" He laughed loudly in the outer wing, but he was not afraid that Lin Tingxun had not lost his consciousness of being hit by the wind, he obviously thought that Lin Tie was going to Gu Wuchen, a bigger tree, maybe those rumors of wind and snow were not made up by Zhao Neng, the son of the family.

Lin Jian thought that even if they jointly abolished Lin Xuzong and supported the ten-year-old Lin Xuxi to come out as a puppet, it would not be bad for the Seventh Lady, and it would not hurt to have an ambiguous attitude at this time, so he stood there with Lin Tingli to greet him.

Although Chen Yuting Langzhong in the Lindu Medical Center is no worse than Langzhong in Shiliang County, Lin Zhai still sent people to invite several famous Langzhong in the county, and also sent a car to Weiyang Mansion to invite Langzhong. When the sunset stopped on the treetops in the afternoon, the three Lang Zhong from the county consulted Lin Tingxun's condition, and also shook their heads to ask Gao Ming. Only then did Lin Tie have the opportunity to walk into the inner wing room and visit Lin Tingxun's sickbed.

When we met the night before, Lin Tingxun's eyes were still blazing, although he was old and hard to hide, he still had a tiger's might, but at this time, although his eyes were open, they were dim, he couldn't speak, and his mouth was crooked, and there was a bright saliva dragged down from the corner of his mouth. Seeing Lin Tie walk in, two lines of turbid tears flowed out of the corners of Lin Tingxun's eyes and dripped on the pillow, Lin Tie really didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, maybe these people couldn't wait for him to die and treated him as if he was dead.

At sunset, a famous doctor invited by Kuaima from Weiyang Mansion made a diagnosis of Lin Tingxun, and concluded that no matter how skilled the doctors in this world are, they will feel helpless against Lin Tingxun's stroke, and they can only use needles and medicines to maintain their destiny for a period of time.

This made many people breathe a sigh of relief, and Lin Jian was also relieved, but Lin Xuzong had a sad face.

Although Lin Tingxun is still conscious, he can't speak, except for blinking his eyelids, his limbs can't move, and there is little hope of recovery. Although it is not necessary to introduce a new head of the family immediately, the Lin family cannot be without a principal. Lin Xuzong also knew that he couldn't force anything at this time, otherwise it would attract Lin Zonghai, Lin Tingli, the Sixth Lady, the Seventh Lady, and Lin Lian and other people to attack him. Lin Tingxun is not dead after all, which is also in line with the intentions of Lin Tingli, Sixth Lady, Lin Zonghai and others, so that the eldest prince Lin Xuwen will not return to Shanglin due to the bereavement system after all, and of course he will not be able to push Lin Xuxi, a ten-year-old child, out as a puppet.

Lin Tingli convened all the important people in the clan to gather to give books to the outer wing room outside the garden court training bedroom to discuss overnight, probably Lin Tingli wanted to give Lin Xuzong a rival, and Lin Tie was also invited to join the discussion - after all, Lin Tie was not expelled from the Lin family, and there were few famous figures in the Lin family - in the end, the person in charge of all the affairs of the Lin family remained unchanged.

On the surface, the seventh lady Gu Yingsleeve has become the biggest beneficiary, after all, she only replaced Lin Tingxun in charge of the grange, warehouse, paper workshop and other industries, and at this time, she no longer needs to be Lin Tingxun's pawn, and she looks powerful. In fact, the grange, the warehouse, and the paper workshop all have their own principals, and they are mainly from the Lin clan, and it is a big question how big Gu Yingsleeve can be, in short, it is a blessing to be able to get rid of Lin Tingxun's shadow initially.

Gu Yingsleeve asked Wu Qi to keep seven foreign horse dealers as villagers, and Lin Tingli and the others did not object. In their opinion, Gu Yingsleeve is a female streamer who married into the Lin family as a concubine after all, and even if she cultivates her own power, she is just protecting herself. Besides, the sixty tall and good horses were also needed by the township camp, but Lin Jian did not want to let the township camp have a cavalry force that should not be underestimated before the situation of the Lin family became clear, so he only agreed to sell twenty horses to the township camp, and the other war horses were nominally under the name of the seventh lady. As long as you can recruit people, with Wu Qi and others here, you can train a useful elite horse for the Seventh Lady.

Under the world, there are many horse-producing areas, but the source of high-quality war horses is mainly concentrated in Hexi, Yanbei, Donghu and other border areas, the empire's control over these areas in the past hundred years has been better than nothing, and the Donghu people now even threaten the safety of Guannai. It is impossible to obtain high-quality war horses from Hexi, Yanbei, Donghu, etc., and only Xiling and other places in the Central Plains still have high-quality horse sources to be supplied, but they are all monopolized by the town army, and the number is extremely limited.

Generally speaking, the price of a ploughing ox in Dongyang Mansion can be four or five thousand yuan, but a horse pulling goods will be doubled for nine hundred thousand yuan, and riding a horse is even more expensive. One hundred taels of silver can buy a two-masted ship that will be transported away in the Shiliang River.

The Soldiers and Horses Division of Dongyang Mansion also has a cavalry battalion, although there are 500 people in full establishment, but there are only 200 horses, and those who can really catch up with the average level of this batch of war horses brought by Wu Qi are probably only the riding horses of a few officers in the cavalry battalion. Lin Xuzong privately raised sixty-seven Kou soldiers, all of whom had horses, but most of them were Sichuan horses with short breeds, and they had some stamina, but they could not be used on the battlefield to fight against the charge, otherwise they would not have blatantly wanted to buy these horses in the mule and horse market in Shanglindu the day before yesterday, which led to this series of things.

Lin Xuzong didn't have any losses on the surface, but in fact, he lost the most. His private Kou soldiers have withdrawn from Dongyang Mansion, and the day of return is far away, he was in charge of the township camp and many miscellaneous affairs before, and now the township camp commander Lin Zonghai is not a person with him, and he naturally can't interfere in the township affairs, as for other chores, there must be chores pushed to his head to have his things to do.
