Chapter 42: I'm afraid the world will not be in chaos

Not long after Lin Fu and Su Mei sat down and chatted with Qin Chengzu, Chen Qingqing, the owner of Jingzhai Garden, left and returned. Before she showed up, a delicate and crisp voice came from the moon gate: "Sister Su
, I'm back again, look who I met on the street came with me? I thought it was still lively here, sister, I don't want to go back to the deserted Jingzhai Garden..."
Lin Fu put the tea cup in his hand on the stone table and turned around to look over. He saw Fan Zhimei, Yuan Jinsheng, Wang Chao, and Gu Siyuan walking over from the other side of the moon gate with Chen Qingqing. Chen Qingqing's face was as beautiful as bones.
He was filled with a smile filled with gloating and watching a good show, and looking at Fan Zhimei's gloomy and hesitant face, I thought that he was probably forced to walk into Baiyuan by Chen Qingqing, who was afraid of chaos in the world. Looking at Gu Siyuan again, he didn't expect that
After the incident at the Fan House, the relationship between Gu Siyuan, Fan Zhimei, and Yuan Jinsheng was not only incompatible, but became even closer. I remembered that I saw Gu Siyuan coming back drunk in the afternoon on New Year's Eve yesterday, and I thought they were also there yesterday.
Let's do it together.
The Baiyuan Garden, like the Fan Tower, was actually the private property of the Fan family. When Su Mei saw Chen Qingqing, Fan Zhimei and others walking in, it was inconvenient to drive them away. He walked outside the pavilion and asked the four people who were guarding and waiting at the gate of the garden.
Wife: "Where's Nanny Song? The Young Master and the Young Marquis came over, but she didn't entertain them?"
"Don't blame Sister Song. I brought them in directly. It was a cold day with melting snow and there was no greenhouse in the garden. It would be warmer if there were more people. In fact, it was my sister who didn't want to go back to the deserted Jingzhai Garden.
Sister Su, if you blame me, then I’ll just go away..."
"How could Su Mei blame Sister Chen? I just thought that Aunt Song had neglected a distinguished guest." Su Mei was quite helpless with Chen Qingqing's temperament, so she had to ask the fourth lady to call someone to prepare another tea set and bring out chairs and stools.
, led Chen Qingqing, Fan Zhimei, Yuan Jinsheng, Gu Siyuan, Wang Chao and others into the pavilion where they could enjoy the snow.
Xiao Man was sitting innocently next to Lin Fu, watching Lin Fu, Qin Chengzu and Su Mei talking about the arrangements of Jiyun Club and life on Changshan Island, when he saw Chen Qingqing leading Fan Zhimei and others in to interrupt the discussion here.
During the conversation, he stood next to Lin Fu and said nothing, feeling somewhat unhappy.
Fan Zhimei, Yuan Jinsheng, Wang Chao, and Gu Siyuan came to find Su Mei and learned that Lin Fu was with others in Baiyuan. They didn't want to make trouble for themselves, so they went to take some time elsewhere. Unexpectedly, they bumped into Chen Qingqing and tried to bully Chen Qingqing.
He had to lead Yuan Jinsheng, Wang Chao, and Gu Siyuan in. According to his idea, since he couldn't send someone to pull out the thorn secretly, how could he meet Lin Fu face to face? Come into the garden now,
In my heart, I was still afraid that Lin Fu, a reckless man, would get violent and wanted the guards to follow him in. But I was also afraid of making fun of Chen Qingqing, a vixen who catered to both young and old. I was really torn. In the end, I endured the risk of making fun of Chen Qingqing and made two of them.
The guards were stationed at the entrance of the courtyard to avoid being bullied by Lin Fu later if they had a disagreement.
Gu Siyuan thought of what he had been scolded by his father yesterday for no reason at home because of Lin Fu. He was not happy to see Lin Fu. However, half of the people in Jiangning City knew that Lin Fu was his father's close disciple. No matter how unhappy he felt,
He couldn't show it on his face. When he saw Lin Fu, he still nodded stiffly.
When Yuan Jinsheng saw Lin Fu, he greeted him kindly and bowed to him: "I didn't expect that Lin Juzi was enjoying the snow with Miss Su Mei, and Jinsheng came to disturb him..."
"Little Marquis, you're welcome." Lin Fu couldn't punch the smiling man, so he stood up and returned the courtesy to Yuan Jinsheng. Out of courtesy, he introduced Qin Chengzu next to him, "This Mr. Qin is a friend of mine from other places..."
"Jinsheng has met Mr. Qin." Yuan Jinsheng bowed to Qin Chengzu again.
"I don't dare to accept it, I don't dare to accept it. How can Mr. Qin dare to be a gift from the young marquis?" Qin Chengzu stood up in a panic and bowed to Yuan Jinsheng, then to Wang Chao, Fan Zhimei, Gu Siyuan and others.
"Someone from Qin has seen Zhu Shaojun..." Looking at him with his chest slumped and his shoulders down, with a flattering smile on his face, who can imagine his demeanor as a horse thief galloping on the Huaihe River? It was just now that he, Lin Fu and Su Mei were sitting across from each other.
When talking, his elegant demeanor is not inferior to that of a famous person in the world.
"..." Xiaoman looked at Qin Chengzu and instantly felt as if the two of them found it very interesting. He pursed his lips and smiled, as beautiful as the red plum blossoms blooming in the snow, refreshing his heart.
Wang Chao, as the son of Jiangning Prefecture Yin Wang Xueshan, had always looked down upon Lin Fu, who was born in Juzi and became a disciple of Gu Wuchen. He originally watched Yuan Jinsheng and Lin Fu being polite, but when he saw Xiao Man, he started to laugh.
, I felt my eyes light up, and I looked closely at this little beauty. I didn't expect that this little girl's appearance was not even half different from Su Mei and Chen Qingqing, but she was still young and her face was still childish.
Xiao Man was tired of being stared at by Wang Chao, so he hid behind Lin Fu to avoid Wang Chao's sight; Xiao Man subconsciously put his finger on Lin Fu's lower back, trying to get Lin Fu to look at Wang Chao.
Despite Chao's disgusting pig-kidney face, this intimate gesture fell into Fan Zhimei's eyes.
Fan Zhimei frowned slightly and thought to himself: Could it be that experiencing the disaster together in Baisha County really made them have a favorable impression of Lin Fu, a reckless man?
"Others only know that Lin Juzi is good at calligraphy and literature. However, by helping the She family's sister-in-law outside Donghua Gate, the world really knows that Lin Juzi is still a versatile person in both civil and military affairs..." Yuan Jinsheng
When he sat down, he still didn't forget to compliment Lin Fu.
"The young Marquis has given me too much praise," Lin Fu said with a smile. "Although Lin Fu has read some books, he is reckless and cannot deserve such praise from the Young Marquis."
"Lin Juzi is so humble. If Lin Juzi doesn't feel that Jinsheng is being abrupt, Jinsheng will have the courage to call you sir..." Yuan Jinsheng said in an astonishing way.
Hearing what Yuan Jinsheng said, Lin Fu was also slightly startled. Yuan Jinsheng was at a young age after the Chinese New Year, only one year younger than himself. He glanced at Gu Siyuan subconsciously, thinking that he should be the one who got married to Zhao Shuhan.
Gu Siyuan quickly told Yuan Jinsheng about writing the "Prison Book".
When Gu Siyuan, Wang Chao and Fan Zhimei saw Yuan Jinsheng treating Lin Fu so seriously, they all thought: As for that, didn't this kid co-author a prison book with Zhao Shuhan, the unimportant head of the Jiangning Criminal Department?
Gu Siyuan taught him a lesson last night and forced him to read dozens of pages of prison books. Today when he met Yuan Jinsheng and the others, he complained about this matter, but he never expected that Yuan Jinsheng would honor him as Lin because of this matter.
Mr. Bie.
Chen Qingqing knew about the conflict that night in the vassal building, and she only thought that Lin Fu was a domineering character who became arrogant when he was in power; she also knew that Lin Fu saved the sister-in-law of Hou She's family in Jin'an at the right time. Speaking of which, she gave the former Jiangning garrison general He Yuejingna
After becoming a concubine, He Yuejing wrote a book to Li Zhuo, the governor of East Fujian, scolding him for his poor support for the war in East Fujian from the rear, and was transferred from Jiangning by the imperial court. Later, he died in the battle at Chentang Station in Jibei, so that she was finally
He's wife kicked out the He family. She had no good impression of the She family who had been rebelling in the southeast for ten years. She was eager to see the She family's good show. Naturally, she had a very cold feeling about Lin Fu's rescue of the She family's sister-in-law. Of course, she had a very cold feeling towards Fan Zhimei.
This dandy didn't have a good impression either. With the mentality of playing in the world of mortals, he forced Fan Zhimei to come to Baiyuan just because he wanted to watch a dog-eat-dog show. How could he imagine that Yuan Jinsheng would be so respectful to Lin Fu when he came in?
?
Chen Qingqing, the owner of Qingzhai Garden, certainly knew that the feudal building was actually a property controlled by the Yongchang Houfu. Yuan Jinsheng was very respectful to Lin Fu. Even if Fan Zhimei was full of resentment, he would not dare to refute Yuan Jinsheng's face now.
, but she was wondering in her heart, what was so special about Lin Fu that made Yuan Jinsheng treat him so politely?
The real heir to the title of Marquis of Yongchang, Yuan Jinqiu, is Yuan Jinsheng's brother, and he has a close relationship with Chen Qingqing. Since Yuan Jinqiu's succession to the title is legal, there is no cruel competition between the brothers, so Yuan Jinqiu has a close relationship with Chen Qingqing.
Although Qiu was a dandy, he did not shy away from boasting in front of Chen Qingqing that he was a smart brother who had high hopes for his father, Hou Yuan of Yongchang when he returned to power. Chen Qingqing had heard a lot about Yuan Jinsheng.
We even know that the Yongchang Houfu actually asked Yuan Jinsheng to assist Fan Ding in managing the affairs of the vassal after he returned from Yanjing. It’s really interesting to think about it: Fan Zhimei, the young master of the vassal, hated Lin Fu deeply, and the vassal family
The master secretly admired Lin Fu and wanted to win over him. Most of Jiangning City knew that Lin Fu was Gu Wuchen's close disciple. However, Gu Wuchen's son was close to Lin Fu's rival in Jiangning City, Fan Zhimei. What the hell was this?
thing?
In the midst of everyone's complicated moods and entanglements, Yuan Jinsheng and Lin Fu asked for advice on the prison book.
Lin Fu had long known that Zhao Shuhan, the head of the Jiangning Criminal Department, wanted him to sign the prison book as a shortcut to fame, but he did not expect that the matter would first spread from Gu Siyuan's mouth to Yuan Jinsheng's ears. He also felt more and more that Yuan Jinsheng
The purpose of meeting people is very strong. Rather than appreciating his own talents, it is better to say that he wants to win over himself.
Lin Fu was secretly wary of Yuan Jinsheng and the Yongchang Marquis Mansion behind him. Could it be that the Yongchang Marquis Mansion also had other thoughts after seeing that the imperial court was in decline and it was difficult to return?
Lin Fu and Qin Chengzu looked at each other, and then said to Su Mei: "It's getting late. Thank you Miss Su Mei for the hospitality today. I'll visit you another day..." He stood up and bowed his hands to Yuan Jinsheng, Chen Qingqing and others.
He said, "Lin Fu will no longer disturb the young Marquis, and Miss Qingqing and Miss Su Mei will not meet again."
After all, Chen Qingqing has a trouble-making temperament. She said: "The young marquis said that Mr. Lin is talented in both civil and military affairs. I just heard you talking about the prison book. Qingqing just knew that Mr. Lin is really talented in literature. But forgive Qingqing for being willful and clumsy. How can Mr. Lin be called civil and military?"
You are an all-rounder, you can’t talk about the affairs of the vassal, right?”
Lin Fu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Chen Qingqing coldly, thinking: This girl is so beautiful, how can she be so vicious, insisting on inciting Fan Zhimei to fight with me to a bloody head? Lin Fu didn't understand Chen Qingqingzang.
What kind of vicious thoughts are there, but looking at Fan Zhimei's expression, I know that he has been aroused by Chen Qingqing.
Lin Fu took off the knife from his waist and held it in his hand, and asked Chen Qingqing coldly: "How can I make Miss Qingqing believe that Mr. Lin is really capable?" He was not humble enough to say that Yuan Jinsheng was being ridiculous just now.
Standing there like a cold sharp knife drawn out of its sheath.
Lin Fu took off the knife from his waist. Fan Zhimei's two guards guarding the gate of the garden could not hear what was said. They were afraid that the incident in the feudal palace would happen again. They took off the knife and ran in without waiting for instructions.
Chen Qingqing originally wanted to encourage Lin Fu to fight with Fan Zhimei's bodyguard, but when Lin Fu stared at her coldly, she felt weak, fearing that this reckless move would go against her words and deeds, and she didn't know how to provoke her.
Lin Fu glanced at Su Mei and asked: "Miss Su Mei, do you think there is anything in this garden that is an eyesore? Lin Fu will get rid of it for you..." Pressing the mechanism on the scabbard, there was a clang, and three inches of cold light were revealed.
Come.
Lin Fu said these words with murderous intent, and Fan Zhimei subconsciously took two steps back. Yuan Jinsheng, Wang Chao, and Gu Siyuan were all horrified, thinking: This is well said, why are they using knives and guns again? Could it be that Su
Mei said they were an eyesore, so Lin Fu wanted to kill them with a knife?
Lin Fu watched Fan Zhimei's two bodyguards armed with knives step up to the steps of the pavilion and stand between him and Fan Zhimei. He smiled and pointed at an old tree as thick as a baby's arm lying across the stone path in the garden.
Mei Zhiya said to Su Mei: "I think this plum branch is quite an eyesore. I will remove it for Miss Su Mei today..."
Lin Fu pulled out the knife, stepped forward and chopped it away. In the eyes of others, it was just a flash of cold light. When they saw clearly, the plum branch as thick as a baby's arm had been chopped by Lin Fu and fell on the stone path.
The plum tree seemed to be blown by a gust of wind, swaying slightly, and a few petals fell on the snow...
Lin Fu returned the sword to its sheath, glanced at Chen Qingqing and said, "This is just some of Lin's subtle tricks." He bowed to Su Mei and said, "I'll say goodbye today." Then he and Qin Chengzu walked out.
Seeing that Lin Fu did not dare to compete with his guards, Fan Zhimei watched him and Qin Chengzu leave, then looked at the broken plum branches on the stone path, and sneered: "But this little trick can make the garden full of plum trees."
They've all been chopped down, and that's all it takes..."
Yuan Jinsheng bent down and picked up the plum branch. He looked at the cut of the plum branch, which was as smooth as a cut. He looked back at Fan Zhimei and hated him for not having any eyesight. Although it was Chen Qingqing who instigated this matter, Chen Qingqing was the woman his elder brother chased closely.
He didn't want to say anything, so he lectured Fan Zhimei in a cold voice and said, "Just two more people to protect you, and it would be easy for Lin Fu to kill you just now!" He put the plum branch in front of Fan Zhimei's two guards and said, "You two, chop it up for me."
have a look……"
The two guards wanted to worry about Fan Zhimei's face, but they did not dare to lie to the young Marquis. They shook their heads and said: "I am incompetent." They are all experts, and of course they know the power, speed and tendon of Lin Fu's sword.
It can be said to be first-class. Even if the knife he holds is good, it is definitely first-class swordsmanship. If they attack with such force, most of the branches will be broken. The key point is that none of them have seen this kind of swordsmanship.
The waist knife with a long and narrow blade slashed out with a fierce momentum like fire. Just now, Lin Fu's knife made them break out in cold sweat and their faces turned pale. Fortunately, they did not take the initiative to provoke, and they were not afraid of being killed on the spot.
Fan Zhimei turned pale and remained silent.
Of course Chen Qingqing had never practiced martial arts, but He Yuejing, the former Jiangning garrison general, boasted of his extraordinary martial arts skills. He often showed her how to chop tree stumps with a chin-high Damo knife, and boasted about how rare it was. Chen Qingqing didn't know that Lin Fu
How exquisite that sword was, but one could feel that the momentum of his sword was much stronger than that of He Yuejing. Especially those words Lin Fu said before chopping the plum branch with his sword were really warning everyone in the garden.
If anyone makes Su Mei an eyesore, he will chop it down without hesitation.
Chen Qingqing thought about the cold look Lin Fu looked at her before leaving, and felt a little chill in her heart. She thought that if she really wanted to arouse his temper, she really didn't know what he would do. She glanced at Su Mei again, and saw that
She looked very calm, too calm, and thought to herself: shouldn't she be surprised too? She thought that the relationship between her and Lin Fu might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Lin Fu left, but things were so messed up that Chen Qingqing and others had no interest in staying in Baiyuan anymore, so they said goodbye and left.
Chen Qingqing returned to Jingzhai Garden by car, and the housekeeper came over to report to her: "The Duke of Guo is here today and has been waiting in your room for a long time..."
"This old immortal wants me to seize the opportunity to tease people, almost causing me to offend the evil star." Chen Qingqing was full of anger and ordered the women and maids in the garden, "Drive that old immortal out..."
"How dare we drive the Duke away?" the women said in embarrassment.
"You don't dare, I'll go and catch up. No one in the Zeng family is good, so they only know how to use others as weapons." Chen Qingqing was furious, holding up her skirt and striding toward the backyard garden.
