Chapter 542: Raising the Coffin

Seeing Sun Yijia's expression, Sun Yilin reached out and rubbed the top of her hair, just like when she was a child, although according to their current age, even if they were brothers and sisters, this kind of action was a bit too much, but whether it was them themselves or the people next to them. Others didn't feel anything inappropriate, but the current atmosphere was inexplicably depressing.

It's just that such a warm action doesn't seem to ease much.

"Little sister, I feel fine, don't worry about me."

However, this kind of thing, do you mean you can't worry if you don't worry?

Sun Yilin looked at Sun Yijia. Although she knew what she was thinking, she didn't care much, because she was doing well now. Since she got married, her focus has been re-planned, and the people who can make her give everything are also easy. She did not fail her, so she is worried about herself now. Even if she dies, I believe she will recover after a while. Of course, with her current situation, Sun Yilin will not do anything to deliberately irritate her.

"Brother-in-law, my little sister will be taken care of by you. I'll go out for a walk. After all, it's been two or three years since I left the capital."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of Yijia. But, do you want to send two people with you?" Sun Yilin looked fine now, but Luo Jingbo always felt that it would not be good to let him go out alone.

"No need, anyway, it's where I've lived for more than ten years. I'm a big man, so I don't need someone to follow me." Sun Yilin waved his hand, then called his little servant and left the Luo family.

Sun Yijia and Luo Jingbo looked at each other, the tacit understanding between husband and wife, seeing the worry in each other's eyes, seemed to be even more worried.

To say that Sun Yilin's friends in the capital are actually quite a few, but they are all general friends, and using friends to describe them seems to be too contemptuous. Therefore, I also know that Sun Yilin's goal is not them.

Sun Yilin wears ordinary clothes, which is detrimental to his "honor", and the place he goes is not a place that those high-profile people will easily set foot in. In this way, even if some things are spread out, those who don't know him will stand. Following the vivid gossip in front of him, he wouldn't know who the master is, but in fact, things didn't spread that fast.

Sun Yilin went to the most ordinary teahouse, asked for a pot of tea at random, poured a cup, and he could drink it.

Sun Yilin didn't seem to care, but his little sister felt distressed at this time. To say that he has been with Sun Yilin for almost ten years, in his eyes, his son was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he is very precious and precious. In the past, the cost of food and clothing was the best thing. Drinking a cup of tea was very particular about it. This is the kind of tea that throws a handful of tea into the pot and then mixes it with boiling water. , the most inferior servants of Dingguo's manor are afraid that they will all dislike it, but now the young master drinks it without changing his face.

There are also these few broken tables, there are no elegant ornaments, and the place where the three religions and nine streams can set foot, the son used to be hesitant for three points if he accidentally approached, but now, from the first two years, similar places, but the son The most common place to go when you have nothing to do.

The son of his own family is obviously a fairy-like person who should live on the moon and has no dust under his feet.

Sun Yilin inadvertently caught a glimpse of the little servant's expression, just like that face, and knew what he was thinking. Sun Yilin twisted a salt-baked bean and shot him in the face, "What the hell, sit down."

The little servant had a miserable look on his face, and sat down dawdlingly, as if a nail had grown under his butt, and he was always unsteady. There is no way, he is a servant, how can he sit with the young master? If he was still in Dingguo Gongfu, he would have been beaten to death a long time ago. However, he also knows that in such a place, if he still If the master and servant are clear, then it is really eye-catching, and the eyes of others looking at their son don't know how strange it will be.

However, no matter how many times this happened, he still couldn't get used to it.

Sun Yilin didn't bother to pay attention to him, because sometimes he really needed someone to do something, and this little servant was always loyal to him, because even if Yumu lost a little, he always kept him.

Although there are no secrets in such a place, it is a good place to listen to some gossip. Although it is true or false, Sun Yilin has already cultivated the ability to get rid of false innocence. News, the situation in the capital, the battle between the princes, that's not what he wants to pay attention to. What he wants is some "gossip". If you are lucky, you don't need to do anything to know it. Small money problem.

In fact, Sun Yilin was lucky today.

On the table next to it, gossip about the Prince Jin's mansion. In the past two or three years, Prince Jin's presence has weakened, but Prince Jin can always create a topic from time to time.

Sun Yilin rested his elbows on the table and held a teacup with a small gap. The cup was a finger away from his lips, and he didn't move for a long time. What he didn't know was that he was in a trance, thinking too much about something, and didn't respond to the outside world. .

However, as his servant, he was a little frightened at the moment, and finally understood the reason why his son came out. There are so many good girls in the world, just like the girl Min Xiaoyuan Min who likes the son very much, why is the son so obsessive? That's the princess, no matter how much you think about it, it's useless. Not only will you not get what you want, but you will also make yourself miserable - just like now, you clearly care, but you can't even ask openly. What trouble, what trouble, what trouble!

However, no matter how colorful the little servant's heart was, he didn't dare to say a word, not even a euphemistic expression. He was sure that if he said one word, he would be driven away by the young master.

Sun Yilin sat here for two hours.

For a small teahouse, it is quite rare, because the people entering and leaving are ordinary people, how can they be so busy, it is good to have a quarter of an hour, and those bastards have time, but how can those people be quiet Sit quietly for an hour or two to drink tea.

The people who came in and out didn't do much, but the shopkeeper and Xiao Er had looked at him many times.

Although the young servant didn't feel his son's obvious emotions, he always felt very terrifying, and shrank tremblingly. When I first went to Jiangnan, because the son was alone by his side, he was very busy. It could be said that his feet did not touch the ground. Gradually, there were fewer things for him to do. Now, he can spend most of his free time with long hair, and the son does not. He will lose his temper at him, but he wants to say that the son is really getting harder and harder to serve now. Although he doesn't want to slander his son, it is a fact. Once, his mind could still ponder a thing or two, but now it is unfathomable. Weird and indistinguishable.

Sun Yilin finally settled the bill and left. He didn't go anywhere else. He returned to Luo's house, took a book, and read it quietly.

Knowing that Sun Yilin was back, Sun Yijia breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't know certain things from her brother, just like calling the servant next to her brother to ask, but the servant was "very busy", and Sun Yijia also understood that her brother was He was determined not to let himself know more, so he had no choice but to give up.

Sun Yibin is committed to smearing Sun Yilin, and he obviously doesn't want him to have any room to turn around, so he spares no effort to spread rumors, and at this moment, he doesn't care what kind of scandal he is.

Originally, Sun Yilin couldn't hinder Sun Yibin at all, but Sun Yibin was narrow-minded, jealous, and cherished vengeance, so he had to trample Sun Yilin to death before he could rest.

Does no one else know this? Yes, and the number is still small, even Old Madam Sun knows it, but she did not stop it. It was not because she was disappointed with Sun Yilin that she let others abuse him, but she knew that her grandson is now It's not that rumors can hurt him at all. His reputation can no longer restrain him, so he watched Sun Yibin jumping around with cold eyes, all the brainless things. He couldn't see that the Dingguo Gong's mansion was in jeopardy, and he didn't do business. These crooked ways.

Regarding the matter of Sun Yilin, the people in Prince Jin's mansion were unanimous in keeping the secret from Jingwan.

In fact, Jingwan is also a little curious, that kind of curiosity is equivalent to knowing a stranger, like knowing someone, something seems to have happened recently, so when talking to someone, she naturally asks a question, like this That's all, it's just that Sun Yilin's identity is a little "special". I'm afraid that some snake essence disease will not be looking for trouble, so I just don't ask anything, I don't know, and it won't affect her in any way.

She didn't know, but Li Hongyuan did. Compared to him, his face was not very beautiful, because Li Hongyuan knew very well how terrible a person would be if he didn't care about his reputation, especially if he didn't care about his reputation. A person who lacks ingenuity, what he really wants to do, sometimes, is hard to guard against.

A person will change a lot, and there must be reasons, especially if the change is in a short period of time.

Li Hongyuan continued to spread the word and asked people to go to Jiangnan to investigate Sun Yilin's affairs in the past two or three years. It was not that he made a big deal, but that he knew that the other party was still thinking about his daughter-in-law, and he might not care about anything else, but this matter , no negotiation, always just in case. At that time, it depends on the situation. If it exceeds certain limits, Li Hongyuan doesn't mind solving Sun Yilin secretly, and it is not difficult for a person to die in an accident.

After that, Sun Yilin stayed at Luo's house very peacefully. Basically, he didn't go out. No matter how fierce the people outside, he could at best pass his mouth on this kind of thing. Besides that, he couldn't do anything. .

Sun Yilin didn't show up until he was about to send Mrs. Dingguo's wife out of the capital and returned to her ancestral land for burial.

It is obvious that Sun Yibin was "outrageous" and forbid him, this unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous thing, to help his mother's spirit, let him roll as far as he wants, don't defile the lintel of Dingguo Gong's mansion, and don't damage the Sun family. 's reputation.

The others didn't have the same overreaction as Sun Yibin, but obviously, they all rejected Sun Yilin invisibly.

Sun Yilin still had no emotions, and just looked at Sun Yibin like that.

Sun Yibin's scalp is numb when he sees him, why is he not curious about the reason for Sun Yilin's change? He is so gloomy and treacherous, and his face is like a dead face. It hurts now.

When he met face to face, Sun Yibin didn't scare him at all, but now he is inexplicably lacking in confidence.

"Go away when you're done."

"You..." Sun Yibin's eyes were round, his demeanor and demeanor were completely absent, and he looked ugly.

Sun Yilin lost his patience, stretched out his hand to brush Sun Yibin away, and strode into the coffin. Then, when everyone was caught off guard, he stretched out the coffin lid and slammed it on the ground with a bang. Everyone recovered.

"Sun Yilin, what are you doing?" It wasn't just Sun Yibin who was furious this time.

Sun Yilin turned sideways and looked at the people who were rushing forward in anger, his eyes finally changed, and he was terrifying, "Go away!"

The others seemed to be really taken aback by him.

Sun Yilin didn't care about them anymore. He turned his head and stepped on the bench where the coffin was placed. The coffin could not fall to the ground before it was buried. Although it was the beginning of August, the weather was still hot. The corpse showed no signs of decay.

Sun Yilin put one hand on the mouth of the coffin, fixedly looking at Mrs. Dingguo's emaciated appearance, and her half-closed eyes, tears were finally accumulating in them and sliding down her cheeks.

This is his mother, who has given him the best of everything.

Even if the desire for control is stronger, it cannot erase her true love and dedication to him. She fell ill at first, and she is indeed related to him. Moreover, death is like a lamp, no matter what she has done, what reason does he have? Keep blaming her?

Sun Yilin stretched out his hand tremblingly and put it on Mrs. Dingguo's eyes, "Mother, I'm back, it's my son's unfilial piety, I couldn't see you for the last time, if there is an afterlife..." No matter if it's mother and son again, or no more Sun Yilin couldn't seem to talk about the connection, and finally, "Please rest in peace."

She slid her fingers across her eyelids, and then took her hand away. After all, Mrs. Dingguo closed her eyes completely.

Sun Yilin held the edge of the coffin with such force that the back of his hand turned white. It seemed that when he reached a certain critical point, he indifferently loosened it, but it was not only his hand, but also his nerves that had been tense.

Even though he tried his best to control, he couldn't resist his consciousness after all. The whole person passed out in a very short time, and then his body slanted and fell off the bench, but it was not hard.

There was a moment of silence in the scene, but Sun Yilin's servant was the first to react, "Your Excellency..." He rushed up to help Sun Yilin up. Ordinary people can't get up easily. "Come and help, call the doctor."

However, Sun Yibin scolded the people from Dingguo Gongfu who wanted to come forward to help, "Pretending at this time? Really..."

"Enough. Go two people to help Yilin down to rest, and immediately ask the doctor to take a look." Duke Ding, who had been standing on the sidelines, finally spoke up. After all, he was a prince, and his IQ was basically normal.

Sun Yibin wasn't angry, but he still didn't dare to disobey his father in public.

Sun Yilin was taken down, so he naturally had to deal with it as soon as possible.

Most of the Xiaobei in Duke Dingguo's manor had to follow Fuling back to the ancestral land of the Sun family, and there were not many people left behind, either marginal figures who were not favored, or existences like Mrs. Sun's Dingguo Gong. Sun Yibin didn't want to leave either. However, his mother passed away. He was the eldest son. No one else could be here. He was an absolutely indispensable member.

The death of Dingguo's wife at this moment was a big blow to Dingguo's mansion and even Prince Kang's lineage.

This is also what Sun Yibin hates the most. He will not be able to return to the capital until 27 months after his departure. Although people like them do not need to eat, live or sleep by their parents’ graves, but during this period, Mushroom Su You don’t have to do the rituals of Duke Zhou, you can’t have banquets and music, these are actually bearable. If you really can’t bear it, you can be more careful in private. It’s not that you can’t do it. Maybe the day lilies are cold.

This is also the main reason for Sun Yibin's various irritability. Of course, his most important target is the Dingguo Gongfu. He cannot stay in the capital, and the brothers who can compete with him in the Dingguo Gongfu can't stay. In this way, the loss He can only go to Chaotang, but when he becomes Duke Dingguo in the future, he will be able to get everything back.

Somewhat comforted.

The other people who fought more fiercely with Sun Yibin probably had similar thoughts.

However, in Duke Dingguo's heart, there is probably still some rejoicing that the person who died was not his own mother.

Sun Yilin slept for two or three days before waking up. After waking up, the whole person seemed to have returned to the previous state.

You don't need to give the lady of the country to be filial to those who go out by adoption. However, he has already decided not to be involved in the officialdom, and now he just came back and went straight to the official position. The reason is too good to find, and his rank has not yet reached the level to alarm Emperor Lecheng. However, Sun Yilin was so special that he had already made a name for himself with Emperor Lecheng, and even went to Jiangnan for errands, which were all given by Emperor Lecheng. Happy Emperor.

Originally, when Sun Yilin received the letter from the capital, he rushed back in a hurry, and he was in violation of the rules. However, extrajudicial is not human, and no one would really care about this. Therefore, Emperor Lecheng knew that Sun Yilin was back. It's not a big surprise, however, Sun Yilin's appointment to office is not just an accident.

Emperor Lecheng found Sun Yilin for the first time. After seeing Sun Yilin, Emperor Lecheng's first reaction was the same - is this really his own nephew?

Emperor Lecheng didn't even ask Sun Yilin how he became like this, "Yilin, I have always been optimistic about you, although something has happened to you now, but in my opinion, it doesn't have much impact, it's far less than a career. serious."

"Thank you so much for the emperor's attention, but I only know from outside that the past ten years have been a bit narrow. To be honest with the emperor, the injuries on the minister's body are not only on the body surface, but also have some damage to the lungs. The doctor said that if it doesn't work well It is very likely that the root of the disease will fall, and the number of years of life will be lost. The minister thought, why not take this opportunity to take a look outside. Recuperation is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to observe the people's livelihood. After a few years, If the emperor does not give up, the minister is willing to come back and serve the emperor." Sun Yilin lowered his head slightly and said calmly.

Emperor Lecheng sighed softly, "That's fine, anyway, you are still young, so I should put you out of town for a few years."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"You don't need to thank me either. When you come back, you have to make up for these years."

"Yes, I will definitely live up to the emperor's trust." Although he said so, only Sun Yilin knew what he was thinking in his heart.

Sun Yilin left the palace, and after that, Qiyuan's officialdom had nothing to do with him.

Sun Yijia knew that this matter had been settled, so she didn't say a word. She always knew that her brother was excellent, even if he didn't go into officialdom, as long as he

If he wants, he can still have a good life. Yes, as long as he wants to, the problem now is that he doesn't know what he is thinking at all.

"When will the fifth brother leave the capital?" Sun Yijia asked.

After several days of accumulation, Sun Yijia was basically able to calm down when facing Sun Yilin.

Although Sun Yilin didn't say anything specific about his plans, he also knew that he would not stay in the capital. In the current capital, there is actually no place for him to cherish, and people who are worth lingering on are out of reach, so he stays. , all you get is endless pain. Therefore, Sun Yijia supports Sun Yilin to go out for a walk.

In Sun Yijia's view, except for the matter of Sister Wan, she can basically stand in his position.

"Didn't you call him 'brother' a few days ago, why did you change it back to the original name?"

"I'm still used to calling you 'fifth brother', if you don't like it..."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a title, no matter what it's called, our relationship won't change, will it?"

"Well. You haven't said when you're going to leave."

"I will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you, and I will leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival." Sun Yilin said softly.

Sun Yijia smiled and nodded vigorously.

After a period of time, no one continued to secretly fuel the rumors about Sun Yilin, and there was no substantial harm to Sun Yilin, so gradually there was nothing new, and finally died down.
