In the Imperial Capital, when it comes to the tightness of security protection, the Governor's Mansion ranks first, and the Imperial Forest ranks second - it's no wonder, who has so many enemies that he can't even count himself?

At night, when Zi Chuanxiu went to visit the Inspector General, His Excellency Di Lin, even though he had shown his officer certificate as deputy commander, the military police who were loyal to their duties searched him again and again, so rigorously that Zichuan Xiu screamed angrily.

: "Do you want to search your underwear?" The other party replied humorously: "No, we don't have gas masks."

※※※

It was Lin Xiujia who opened the door. She said in surprise: "Axiu! It's you!"

Zi Chuanxiu looked at her flowery face infatuatedly. The beauty of her youth was now enhanced by the radiance of a young woman. Then she moved her gaze and found that her belly had swelled slightly, indicating that she was pregnant.

For a moment, my heart felt as if it were real and imaginary, as if I were dreaming and waking up.

He coughed dryly: "Ahem! Sister-in-law." - The feeling was too complicated to describe.

※※※

Lin Xiujia seemed sincerely happy for his arrival and led him into the house while saying: "Your eldest brother didn't know where he went just now, so you should sit down in the study and wait for him. He will be back soon!"

"

Zi Chuanxiu said politely: "No, I'll just wait in the living room."

Lin Xiujia shook her head, pursed her lips in the direction of the living room, and made a pretty naughty expression. Zichuan Xiu looked over and saw that many people were already sitting in the living room. The stars on their uniform shoulders were all shaking.

Not a lowly family official, but none of them knew him.

Zichuan Xiu smiled bitterly and said: "Okay." He nodded politely to everyone in the living room and followed Lin Xiujia into Dilin's study. However, he didn't notice the angry expressions of the people behind him: "What's the background of this kid? We've been waiting."

After such a long time, without even a cup of tea, he walked into the study swaggeringly!

※※※

In the study, Lin Xiujia asked Zi Chuanxiu to sit down and made tea, water and cakes for him with her own hands - this kind of work is usually done by humans.

Zi Chuanxiu said in surprise: "There are so many guests, are they always like this?" In his impression, this was inconsistent with Di Lin's aloof and aloof person.

Lin Xiujia smiled and said: "There are usually more! Your elder brother has already sent away a batch tonight. But just now the Supervisory Office said there was something urgent and urged your elder brother to go back to deal with it, so just let them wait here!"

"Oh, then what do they do to find Big Brother?"

Lin Xiujia curled her lips and made a disdainful expression: "Who knew? He didn't come here to have a relationship through the back door, right? Ever since he became the Inspector General of this Lao Shizi, he has never had a free day, and there are always people coming!" Lin

Although Xiujia's tone was complaining, her expression was very satisfied: Husband is valued as a wife, what wife doesn't want her husband to be powerful and respected?

Zichuan Xiu blushed for a while. Although he knew that Lin Xiujia's original intention was not to talk about him, he was here to "make a relationship through the back door"!

Lin Xiujia didn't notice Zichuanxiu's embarrassment at all: "To be honest, those dirty officials can't be driven away, which is annoying. You are our old friend, but you never come to see us! Even Sterling

I've been here several times, but you've never been here once. It's not like before now, and you don't have to worry about Yang Minghua knowing."

Zi Chuanxiu was speechless. Lin Xiujia obviously didn't know about the conflict between him and Di Lin on the Bloody Night in the Imperial Capital. He smiled and said, "I've been busy - isn't it here now?"

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Axiu, you are quite old now, almost 20, right? I heard from Di Lin that you still don't have a girlfriend? This is not good. What kind of girl do you want to find? Tell my sister-in-law.

Just give me a shout and I’ll introduce you to you.”

Zi Chuanxiu wanted to say: "I just want to find someone like you!" As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she turned into: "I haven't planned this yet, sister-in-law, you don't have to worry!"

Lin Xiujia looked at him narrowly - that cunning expression was exactly the same as when she was a girl, which made Zi Chuanxiu's heart ache - "I know that you have a mold in your mind, you have high standards, and you don't look down on the average ones.

" Ask him in a low voice:

"Is this the little girl from the former president, Aning? If you are embarrassed to speak, I can help you!"

Zi Chuanxiu squirted out all the tea he drank, coughed repeatedly, and hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't do it, I take it with my best intentions!"

At this time, the servant came in and whispered something in Lin Xiujia's ear. Lin Xiujia frowned. Zi Chuanxiu took the opportunity and said, "Sister-in-law, if you have something to deal with, go deal with it first. I'll just wait here."

Lin Xiujia hesitated and said, "Okay, then you can do whatever you want! You can just find something to read, and I'll come when I go - but I guess your eldest brother will be back soon."

※※※

Lin Xiujia left the study and closed the door smoothly, showing that she had great trust in Zichuan Xiu.

Zi Chuanxiu watched her back disappear, showing an indescribable expression. He turned back to look at Dilin's study, sat down in front of the desk, and saw a photo in the most conspicuous place of the desk: Dilin, Sterling and him

A group photo of three people at the Far East Military Academy. The three hugged each other affectionately. Zichuan Xiu was on the left, with a playful and smiling expression; Di Lin was in the middle, posing a cool pose; Sterling was on the right, smiling gently.—

—Obviously, this sequence seems to indicate some kind of historical cruelty.

The background was a peach forest. It was spring, and the crimson sky was slowly falling. Zichuanxiu remembered that it was on that spring day that they met Lin Xiujia together.

Behind the photo is a poem written by Sterling: "Flowers are in spring, and people are young!" The handwriting is vigorous, and underneath are the signatures of Zichuan Xiu, Sterling, and Dilin.

Zichuanxiu and Sterling each had the same photo. Zichuanxiu did not expect Dilin to cherish this photo so much and put it in the center of the desk. A warm feeling flowed in his heart.

※※※

Zi Chuanxiu did not flip through the documents on the table. He stood up and walked to the window, opened the curtains, and planned to enjoy the garden of Dilin.

The light from the study room poured into the garden, and Zichuanxiu saw two people talking in the depths of the garden from a distance. One was Di Lin, and the other person surprised Zichuanxiu: Fang Jin, the commander of the Black Flag Army.

Both of them were masters, and they felt the connection at the same time and looked back. Di Lin looked at the light in the study calmly, then turned back to continue the conversation.

Zi Chuanxiu gently lowered the curtains, but at that moment, Fang Jin's panicked expression was deeply imprinted in his mind. Why was he here? Didn't he say he was sick and recuperating at home?

※※※

After a while, Zi Chuanxiu heard a noise coming from outside, and many voices said at the same time: "Ah, the Inspector General is back!" "It's really hard for you to work overtime so late at night!" "Hello, sir.

!The lower official is..."

Di Lin responded to the guests at home with a smile one by one. Lin Xiujia came up to help him take off his military jacket. He said strangely: "What's wrong, you came back so late! I didn't see so many people waiting for you!" She whispered in a low voice.

He whispered in his ear: "Send them away quickly, Axiu is waiting for you in the study."

Di Lin nodded slightly and said loudly to everyone: "Excuse me for waiting, brothers. I'm sorry! It's just that tonight there are urgent matters assigned by the president to be dealt with..."

Everyone immediately said knowingly: "No, no, their matters are not urgent at all! Of course, the chief's matters take priority!" They all said goodbye and left.

※※※

Di Lin smiled apologetically at Zi Chuanxiu and said, "There is no way."

Zi Chuanxiu joked: "That's right! The Inspector General shoulders the important responsibilities of the country and has to deal with many things every day!"

Di Lin shook his head: "It was better before, but now we are very busy! Mainly because of the militiamen who were summoned. The military discipline is so bad. They drink alcohol all day long, fight in groups, and even steal and molest women.

It's chaos. The crime rate in the Imperial Capital this month has increased five times compared to last month - you know, any case involving a soldier committing a crime will be transferred to our Supervisory Office to handle it!"

Zichuan Xiu was upright and awe-inspiring: "The commander of their army should be held accountable! How did he lead the troops!"

Di Lin said calmly: "That's good! The unit that commits the most crimes is a certain unit called "Xiuziying". Half of the drunkenness, fights, and molestation of women are caused by them - I will make their unit commander the leader when I go to work tomorrow.

Catch him and question him!"

Zi Chuanxiu immediately dared not speak out.

Lin Xiujia laughed and bent over. Di Lin hugged her and kissed her gently. Lin Xiujia pushed him away in embarrassment: "No, Axiu is still here! - You are such a big brother and teach indiscriminately.

Bad brother!"

"What are you afraid of? Axiu is not an outsider! Besides, he has never seen anything before?"

Zi Chuanxiu shouted on the side: "Oh, I can't stand it anymore! I am very pure and can't stand this kind of scene!"

"Get the hell out of here, pretending to be innocent here with me! - Aren't you the ones who lent me all the pornographic books when I was a kid?"

Lin Xiujia listened happily from the side: "You guys chat slowly, I will serve you some wine and food - has A Xiu eaten?"

Di Lin said: "Eat!"

Zi Chuanxiu: "I didn't eat it!"

Di Lin warned her: "Remember, only a pair of chopsticks will be enough later!"

Zi Chuanxiu said immediately: "Yes! I am used to using spoons and knives and forks."

The food and wine were quickly placed, and Di Lin said to Lin Xiujia: "Okay, you can go down quickly and don't need to stay with us here - lest someone insists on being drunk after only drinking half a glass of beer and takes advantage of the situation.

My wife is cheap!”

Zi Chuanxiu protested: "Do you just not believe me!?"

Di Lin did not hesitate: "I just don't believe it!"

Lin Xiujia smiled like a flower: "I haven't seen Di Lin so happy for a long time - you guys talk slowly and call me if you need anything."

※※※

Watching Lin Xiujia leave the study, the smiles disappeared from their faces at the same time.

Di Lin said slowly: "Did you see it?"

The question was confused, but Zi Chuanxiu immediately understood that he was referring to the conversation he had with Fang Jin in the garden just now. He shook his head: "No, I didn't see anything!"

"You saw it." The sentence pattern changed from a question to an affirmative sentence.

Zi Chuanxiu had to admit: "Yes, I saw it." Looking around: "Could it be that "three hundred swordsmen are already ambushing behind the banquet, just waiting for the host to throw a cup as a signal"?"

Di Lin laughed "haha", threw the cup in his hand, made a "clang" sound, and said with a smile: "The ears of the swordsman are not very good - Axiu, you have something on your mind, I can see it."

Zi Chuanxiu admitted honestly: "Yes."
