What do you think of these things? The Lin family is dominated by the direct descendants of the third-bedroom family, and I have no dissatisfaction with this. As a concubine of the third-bedroom family, I know my status in the family, and I have no intention of causing such trouble.

Come on. It’s true that some things can’t be tolerated, and it’s too much to bully others. In any case, I am also a part of the third house, and even I have been bullied like this, let alone everyone in the outer house." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.

Lin Bonian frowned and said, "It's just you. What's the matter with the rooms outside?"

Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "Second uncle, you can go take a walk and see what life has been like for most of the people in the outer house over the years. The family wants to revitalize the Lin family and forces everyone to study and take exams.

The head of the family, who was the main laborer, could not make a living, so he could only live on the monthly income of the owner's family, which made their life extremely poor. However, this monthly income also became a means for the inner house to control the outer house. They often deducted the monthly income.

In order to threaten, people were secretly sent to monitor the brothers in each house, and if they did anything that was dealt with according to the court regulations, people inside and outside each house were panicked and complained. Everyone was dissatisfied, but they did not dare to speak out. This situation

Xia, what are you talking about about the lintel of the Xiaxin Guangmen Gate? It’s just empty words.”

Lin Bonian said solemnly: "Is it so serious? Is it an exaggeration? Everyone was very happy at the party last night. I think they are in a good mood."

Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "Who dares to be bad? The second uncle is just here for a while. Why should they complain to the second uncle? Besides, the second uncle and the head of the family are brothers and direct descendants of the second house. They

Do you dare to tell you something more? Isn't it all in vain? I don't know what punishment I will be punished when I look back. Did you see them all dressed up? Let me tell my second uncle, a few days before you came back, the head of the family

So I ordered a new set of clothes to be made for each room, old and young, so that you, my second uncle, could come back and look at the clothes. You don’t believe me when I say that the money used to make the clothes will be deducted from the monthly salary.

I heard this from Huang Changqing personally. This may not be the idea of ​​the head of the family, but probably the idea of ​​the eldest sons. This is their attitude towards the younger brothers. Do you think this is ridiculous?"

Lin Bonian frowned into a big knot. He had never heard of these things, and now it sounded like he was hearing a fantasy. Lin Bonian found it unbelievable to be so harsh on his tribe. He refused to believe it, but felt that if it was

Really, then there's something really wrong with this family.

"Lin Jue, you have to be responsible for what you said. Don't make up lies to deceive me." Lin Bonian shouted coldly.

Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "Second uncle, why should I fabricate this? If I want to fabricate it, I should also fabricate some big things. As long as the second uncle goes to the outer room to look around, he will have the answer soon, so why should I fabricate it."

Lin Bonian said: "Since they don't dare to tell me, why do you tell me this?"

Lin Jue said: "I can't watch the Lin family go on like this. Although I am not welcomed by the head of the family and several eldest sons, I have never forgotten that I am a descendant of the Lin family. It is related to the future of the Lin family. I can't just sit back and watch. I can

I am not afraid of retaliation, and I don’t know whether it is right or wrong to tell my second uncle these things, but I think that my second uncle, who is working hard in the capital and working hard for the Lin family, must have some thoughts with me, and just wants to do this for the good of the Lin family.

I always have to find someone to talk to, so I told my second uncle, even if there is no result, I have tried my best."

Lin Bonian said in a deep voice: "Why don't you have a frank talk with the head of the house? The head of the house won't be someone who can't hear your opinions."

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Why didn't I say anything? About the court training, about monitoring the behavior of the children in the family, about the differences and favoritism between the brothers in the inner house and the outer house in enforcing family laws, and about whether the clan members should all study and take exams, casting a net.

I went to extreme lengths to tell my opinion to the head of the family. But the result remained the same, which made me even more isolated. If I hadn't done something for the Lin family, I might not even have a foothold."

Lin Bonian frowned and pondered. He habitually tapped the table with his hand. After a while, he asked in a deep voice: "You came to see me today just to say these things to me? What do you want me to do?"

Lin Jue shook his head slowly and said: "What I want to say is not just this. I have more important things to report to my second uncle, and what I just said are just trivial matters. The contradictions and conflicts between me and my family are nothing.

No big deal, I didn't take those things to heart at all. But if the Lin family only had these small shortcomings, there would be no need for me to say anything. After all, these things would not cause the Lin family to be destroyed. What I am going to say next is related.

The life and death of the Lin family is at stake. I don't know if the second uncle is ready to hear these words from me, because it will definitely surprise the second uncle and even frighten him."

"Life or death? The whole family is destroyed? Lin Jue, did you drink at noon? Can you say such sensational words?" Although Lin Bonian was surprised, he did not believe Lin Jue's exaggeration.

Lin Jue said sternly: "Second uncle, do you want to listen? If you want to listen, I will tell you. If you don't want to listen, then stop here. I won't say a word. But I want to remind the second uncle that once the second uncle decides to listen,

If you deal with this matter, there will be no way out, because what you heard will force you to make some decisions."

Lin Bonian frowned and said, "Lin Jue, don't be alarmist. Tell me what's going on."

Lin Jue nodded and said: "Okay, if your second uncle is willing to listen, then I will tell him. Apart from me, there are probably not more than three people who know about this matter. Second uncle, do you still remember what I said last night?"

Regarding the plaque on the 'House of Loyalty' that was awarded by the Holy One? I beg you not to hang that plaque up."

Lin Bonian's eyes lit up and he said: "I just want to ask you today, what do you mean by those words? What do you mean if you hang it up and you can't take it off? What do you mean?"

Lin Jue said: "It's related to what I want to tell my second uncle. Our Lin family cannot hang this plaque, because once the plaque is hung, our Lin family will be a loyal family in the eyes of the world. However, there are people in our Lin family who are unfaithful and unfaithful.

Yi, committed a heinous crime, colluded with pirates for more than ten years, and funded pirates to cause trouble. Second uncle, do you think this plaque can be hung on the lintel? This is a major crime of deceiving the emperor. Just this crime alone should be inscribed on the whole house.

Not to mention the serious crime of communicating with pirates? If you put all the nine tribes together, it wouldn’t be unjust."

"What! What did you say!" Lin Bonian trembled in shock and knocked over the teacup with a clang. The expression on his face was as frightened and disbelieving as if he had seen a ghost.

"Second uncle, please keep your voice low. This matter must not be made public." Lin Jue said softly.

"Come on, tell me, what's going on? Who are you talking about? Lin Jue, I'm warning you, don't say these nonsense. If you talk nonsense, I will order someone to kill you immediately. You must be responsible for your nonsense.

There is a limit." Lin Bonian shouted incoherently in a low voice.

Lin Jue sighed, stood up and came to Lin Bonian's side. He started talking about the robbery of the birthday gift, one by one, until he exterminated the pirates and captured Xu Xing. He learned the truth from Xu Xing's mouth, the involvement and

Every detail is explained clearly.

Lin Bonian was completely stunned. His body seemed to have been drained of all its strength. He was so trembling that he couldn't even lift his hands, and he was so nervous that he couldn't even breathe.

"You...you...are what you said true? You...you don't want to talk nonsense, this is going to kill the nine tribes." Lin Bonian murmured continuously. There were big drops of sweat on his face.

Rolling down.

Lin Jue said softly: "Second uncle, how can I talk nonsense about such a thing? Am I crazy? Because the matter is so important, for nearly a month after returning from suppressing bandits, I couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat.

.I don’t know what to do? As soon as this matter was exposed, everyone in my Lin family was spared. However, what happened on the island has aroused the suspicion of the prince and the prefect Yan, and they carefully planned the exposure plan, which led to my identity being exposed on the island.

, this matter cannot be concealed. Prefect Yan has already begun to investigate the matter, and if this matter is seriously investigated, it should not be difficult. I am afraid that if we do not come up with countermeasures, everything will be too late."

Lin Bonian wiped his face with his sleeves, and the cuffs were wet with sweat.

"Didn't you report it to the head of the family?"

"Second uncle, how dare I report this to the head of the family? Although I believe that the head of the family must not know about this matter, the matter involves the eldest son, who is the eldest son that the head of the family values ​​the most. Speaking from my position, will the head of the family believe it?

?And I have no other evidence except what Xu Xingzhi said. The head of the family will definitely think that I am deliberately causing trouble again, and will punish me severely. I am not afraid of being punished by the family law, nor am I afraid of being kicked out of the Lin family, but this matter

If it cannot be solved, this is the crux of the problem. It happened that my second uncle returned to Hangzhou this time as an imperial envoy to declare the imperial decree. I thought about it and decided that this matter must be reported to my second uncle. The second uncle is well-informed and should make a decision. This is me

The real reason why I came to see my second uncle today. Second uncle, how do you think we should handle this matter? The matter cannot be delayed."

Lin Bonian stood up with support on the table. His legs went weak and he almost fell over. He held on to the table and took a few breaths. After closing his eyes to calm down, Lin Bonian began to pace, from the door to the incense table.

They walked dozens of steps back and forth. The room was extremely silent, except for Lin Bonian's heavy breathing, which was like a bellows, and the monotonous and annoying clicking sound of his wooden clogs as he walked.

Lin Jue stood there quietly, looking out the window at the scene in the courtyard under the scorching sun. There, the sunlight was intense, and the flowers and trees on the flower beds were wilting and dry, as if they were about to die. The cicadas chirping on the trees were harsh and anxious.

, which makes people feel depressed.

"Lin Jue..." Lin Bonian finally stopped and said in a hoarse voice.

"Second uncle, I'm listening."

"Lin Jue, this matter... I think it needs to be confirmed. Although according to what you said, this matter is probably... I'm afraid it's almost the same. But there is always evidence to prove, otherwise we can't take action. After all, Lin Ke is

The eldest son of the house, the future heir to the head of the family, cannot be chosen without evidence. Even if I go to tell the head of the house clearly, I still need evidence." Lin Bonian pondered.

Lin Jue nodded and said: "What the second uncle said is true. However, I was afraid that Xu Xing would talk nonsense after he was captured, so I killed Xu Xing to silence him. Now the only person who knows about it is Hai Dongqing. It is difficult to get evidence.

But time waits for no one. If I can find conclusive evidence, why bother delaying it for nearly a month. Every day I wait, Magistrate Yan’s investigation will go further, and the Lin family will take a dangerous step, and I am also very anxious."

"I understand, I understand. What should I do about this matter? Hey! How can this happen? What on earth did my Lin family do to offend the gods, and how could such a disaster happen? What should I do? What should I do?

Lin Bonian rubbed his hands, frowned, and turned around anxiously.

Lin Jue watched the words and expressions and felt that the time had come. He said softly: "Second uncle, the eldest son came to see me this morning."

"Huh? He's looking for you? Why?" Lin Bonian tilted his head and asked.

"He tested me. He became suspicious of what I said last night." Lin Jue said.

Lin Bonian was stunned, stamped his feet and said: "Yes, no one could understand what you said last night, so he should ask you."

Lin Jue said: "Second uncle, he invited me to go to Bieyuan to get together tonight. I think I should have a showdown with him tonight."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, you have no evidence, how can you show your cards? Isn't this nonsense?" Lin Bonian waved his hands repeatedly.

"Second uncle, he doesn't know that I don't have evidence. He invited me to Bieyuan. I'm afraid he has some intentions. Didn't the second uncle say he wants evidence? So, I want to invite second uncle to Bieyuan tonight, but don't show up.

Come on, listen to what I have to say to him. It would be best if... the second uncle could invite the head of the family to go with him. If the head of the family and the second uncle heard the eldest son’s own admission with their own ears, I don’t know if it would be considered conclusive evidence."

Lin Bonian looked at Lin Jue in surprise. He immediately understood what Lin Jue meant. Lin Jue wanted to get something out of Lin Ke and make him admit the fact that he was collaborating with the bandits. And if the elder brother heard this with him,

If so, it is irrefutable.

"Lin Jue... do you really want to do this?"

"Second uncle, do you think there is anything we can do now? Should we just sit back and wait for death? Wait for the entire Lin family to be executed? The whole family will be wiped out?"

"Of course not. Maybe, this is a good idea. It's just...just..."

"Second uncle wants to say, how to deal with the aftermath of this matter, right? Even if the eldest son admits it personally, there is no way to deal with the aftermath, right? In fact... if the head of the family is present, that is the head of the house's business. I think, the head of the house should have his

Decision. In fact... everyone knows how to prevent this matter from causing danger to the Lin family, and the head of the family also knows it."

"Yeah, I'm just afraid... I'm just afraid that the head of the family won't be cruel." Lin Bonian shook his head.

Lin Jue said softly: "No one can be cruel. The second uncle doesn't want to see this, and I don't want to see this, but... reality forces us to make a decision, which may cost the lives of hundreds of people in the Lin family.

.”

Lin Bonian nodded slowly and gritted his teeth and said, "What you are saying is that no matter who you are, they cannot be compared with the lives of the entire Lin family and the lintel that has been passed down by the Lin family for hundreds of years."

Lin Jue said: "Second uncle is right, everything is for the Lin family. In addition, there is another sentence that I don't know whether I should say."
