Lin Xuan of the Red Chamber

My brother Xuan'er, how are you doing these days? It's been more than a month since we parted last time. I miss you deeply. The journey is long and the mountains are high and the water is far away. I don't know when we will see you again this time. Every time I think about it, I can't help crying, thinking about it You and I had a long conversation when we were young, and we knew each other heart to heart, as if it was a lifetime away.The green hill is still there, the sunset is red for a few times, life is lonely, it is rare to have a confidant, my brother Xuan'er, I am waiting for my brother in Qingshan Academy, I hope my brother will work hard and live up to my brother's expectations, when we meet again, we must Sing with a sword, drink three hundred cups, and congratulate you.

The letter paper was written in thin gold fonts that Lin Xuan was familiar with, and those words that didn't match the preamble and the afterword also made Lin Xuan see a handsome, handsome, but lazy figure.Still out of tune as always, a faint smile filled Lin Xuan's heart.

It has been more than a month since Li Yan left last time. During this month, Li Yan would send a letter every few days, and he didn't feel troublesome at all.Lin Xuan understood Li Yan's thoughts. No matter how mature and steady he was, he was still only a ten-year-old child. Leaving his familiar hometown and relatives to study in a completely unfamiliar place, he would feel a little bit afraid and reluctant, which is also human nature. Common sense.

Putting down the letter paper, Lin Xuan walked out of the room, staring at the white crane in the pool in a daze. It has been five years since he came to this world, but he has never really thought about his future life. He is always in a daze, letting his temper do things , He doesn't think about how to increase his own strength, he doesn't think about how to protect those close to him, he doesn't even have a real trustworthy person around him, he always moves forward with other people's arrangements.

He's been hinting that he's too young to do much now, and that's all.But is being young really a reason? Maybe it is for others, but for him it is just an excuse, an excuse to escape.Thinking back when he was really seven years old, he could use his own advantages to win the loyalty of others, not to mention that he now has an adult soul in his body.

Lin Xuan understands that it's not that he can't do it, it's not that he can't do it, but that he has changed, maybe because he died once, maybe because he changed the environment, he has changed, he is completely different from the previous one. different.

In the past, he was aggressive, ambitious, unwilling to be controlled by anyone, and would not rely on anyone. He worked hard and fought hard to forge ahead, but now he has become content with the situation and let nature take its course. He has become too much and died. After one time, he took many things too lightly.

He always thought that this kind of change was good, at least this kind of carefree life, this kind of happiness he had never experienced in his previous life, so he willfully chose to escape and evade the responsibilities he should bear.But he forgot that this world does not allow you to escape. If he is content with the situation like this and does not want to make progress, then what is the difference from those dudes he has always despised in his previous life.

There are many things in this world that are closely related to him. What is the reason for Lin Ruhai's untimely death in the future, and what kind of stories are hidden behind the rise and fall of the four major families? These are all things that he will have to face in the future. Yes, he cannot escape.

Maybe these things are still far away from him, and he can arrange them slowly, but some things are already close at hand, so he can't ignore them, and his life is not completely carefree.Looking at the white crane in the pool, Lin Xuan's eyes darkened a little bit.

"No, it's not me, I didn't mean it, no, don't...don't come here, ah..."

Under the pale pink gauze, Hong Ying kept struggling, her expression was panicked, her face was pale, the cold sweat continuously oozing from her forehead even soaked the pillow towel, she waved her hands weakly, as if she saw something extremely terrifying .

"Auntie, what's the matter with you, Auntie, wake up, wake up!" Hongying's voice woke up the scholar who was watching the night. She put on her clothes, held a candlestick, and hurried over. Sakura seemed to be in a nightmare, and Shuxiang hurriedly shook Hongying lightly, trying to wake her up.

"No, don't...don't come here, ah..." Hong Ying suddenly sat up, her eyes widened, she stared forward, her gaze was dull, as if she was still immersed in a nightmare and could not escape.

After a while, Hong Ying slowly came back to her senses. She was sweating non-stop all over her body, and her eyes turned black. She clutched her chest, feeling her heart pounding, and her body getting more and more serious. It was trembling uncontrollably.

"Auntie, auntie, how are you doing? Are you having nightmares again?" Seeing Hongying's appearance, Shuxiang couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Hearing Shuxiang's voice, Hong Ying looked at her blankly, until she saw everything around her clearly, Hong Ying gradually regained her senses, but she still felt a gust of cold wind constantly blowing out of her body, she He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down the fear in his heart.

"Auntie, you're having a nightmare again." Shuxiang looked at Hong Ying worriedly, took out a handkerchief and helped Hong Ying wipe the cold sweat on her forehead, then went to the table and poured a cup of hot tea, stuffed it into Hong Ying. hands.

After taking a sip of hot tea, Hong Ying finally calmed down. She had not had nightmares for a day or two. During this time, she would dream of her concubine sister who died young every night, dreaming that she stared at blood red eyes and asked Why didn't she avenge her, why did she want to kill her.

For her concubine sister who died young, Hong Ying has never been able to forget, not only because of the good relationship between them, but also because she actually died for her, if it wasn't for Xiao Yun, it would have been Hong Ying Sakura.So Hongying could never forget the scene at that time, Xiaoyun's eyes were wide open, his whole body was twitching non-stop, and blood gushed out of his mouth continuously, the blood was extraordinarily glaring.

When dreaming of Xiaoyun at first, Hong Ying thought it was because she was thinking too much during pregnancy, but it has been like this for more than ten days in a row, so it is not normal.

Hong Ying does not believe in Buddhism, she has never believed in ghosts and gods, she does not think it is an accident that she has dreamed of Xiaoyun every night for the past ten days, but compared to ghosts and gods, she believes it is Someone plotted against her again, and she had already been tricked before she knew it.

Hongying sat on the bed, carefully recalling what happened these days, but she didn't find anything wrong, she sighed, the person who did it was too concealed, so she couldn't find any clues at all.

However, in her mind, the place where she can start is nothing more than basic necessities, and she doesn't go out often, and the place where she lives is not easy to start with. The best and easiest place to move is eating and clothing. These two items should be the most important when starting an investigation.

"Scholarly, you can check it out quietly tomorrow to see if something has been mixed into my recent meals." Hongying's voice became a little hoarse, probably because she hasn't been able to sleep well during this time .

"Auntie means that someone has tampered with it. It shouldn't be possible. Every time Auntie eats food, we personally supervise and make it, and we also try it with silver needles before eating." Shuxiang was startled, and she hesitated. Said.

"Not all poisonous silver needles can be tested. The poisonous and smart people who can be tested with silver needles will not use them. You will secretly save some of the pastries and meals I will use tomorrow and send them to Dr. Li. Let him check carefully to see what's going on." Hong Ying's face was a little gloomy, she had noticed something was wrong a few days ago, and she also asked Qi Momo to check it in private, but she didn't get any results. No, the person who did it was smarter than she imagined.

Scholar nodded solemnly. She looked at Hongying's pale face and thin figure, and she was extremely worried. She hoped that something could be found out tomorrow, otherwise, Auntie's body might not be able to take it anymore.

Seeing that Shuxiang understood the seriousness of the matter, Hong Ying secretly nodded, slightly relieved, although she asked Shuxiang to go and investigate, she didn't expect that she could really find out anything.

She asked Shuxiang to investigate, firstly, to make her confidants and maidservants more vigilant and strengthen their precautions, and secondly, to see if this search could be used to expose some people.

Rubbing her forehead tiredly, Hong Ying said lightly: "Scholar, you go down first, let me be alone for a while."

Shuxiang was a little worried about this, but seeing Hongying's resolute look, she could only retreat silently.

After seeing Shuxiang leave, Hongying put her arms around her knees and leaned on the bed, staring at the moonlight outside the window in a daze.
