The next morning, the Li family's head had Li Fei brought over to his son's room. He wanted his son to stay with her for a while longer, but it didn't take her long to come out crying. Her son didn't chase after her, but was still silently copying books in the room.

In the afternoon, someone came to tell him that Li'er had died, and that she had committed suicide. The clan head looked at that person and said, "You are not allowed to let Eldest Young Master know about this."

The man looked at him with some embarrassment.

"What's wrong?" The Li family's Patriarch had a bad premonition.

"Young master already knows, young master discovered it first." the man said.

"Where's Young Master?" The Li family's Patriarch asked him.

"It's still there." After saying that, the man led the family head over.

The Li family's patriarch had imagined countless scenes, but he had never thought of what he was seeing now. He saw his son calmly commanding his servants to change their clothes for his mother and then prepare the coffin. It was as calm as if Li'er had nothing to do with him.

"Father," Li Lin came to the Patriarch's side. "I want to write 'Our Li family's daughter-in-law' for Li'er, is that alright?" Li Lin looked at the Patriarch.

"That won't do, the Jun Family won't be happy, since she's already dead, I'll have someone take good care of her family, and she doesn't need this reputation." The Li family's Patriarch hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't agree to his son's request.

"Understood, Father." Li Lin did not refute, nor did he explain. He only gave a "yes" and said to those people, "Just engrave the tomb of Li'er."

"Also, bury her next to the willow tree on the west side of the city, and bury the tombstone in it, too. Tell me when it's done. " After Li Lin finished speaking, he said to the Patriarch, "Father, I still have work to do. I'll head over first."

After that, he really went to copy books.

The Li family's Patriarch left as well.

At noon, the Li family's Patriarch called over a servant and asked, "How is the First Young Master doing at noon today?"

He even praised Master's cooking. In addition, he asked the Patriarch to tell him that there was something he wanted to discuss with the Patriarch tonight. Before this, the Patriarch had been thinking about something, so he didn't dare disturb the Patriarch. the man replied.

"I will only say this once. From now on, as long as it's the eldest young master's matter, you have to tell me immediately. No matter what I'm doing, you have to tell me immediately." The Li family's Patriarch instructed that person. "Also, tell the Eldest Young Master that he is to come over for dinner tonight." The Li family's Patriarch continued, "Let the chef who cooked for the Eldest Young Master at noon cook for him. Tell him that if he does well, he'll get a reward."

"Yes." the servant said.

At night, the Li family's Patriarch sat in his study, waiting for Li Lin to arrive.

As usual, Li Lin had come a quarter of an hour earlier, packed up his things, and pushed open the door of the study. "Father, it's done."

When the Li family's Patriarch saw that his son hadn't changed for him, he felt slightly gratified.

During the meal, Li Lin was still cooking for his father like before, causing the Li family's Patriarch to feel comfortable. Then he would eat his own meal. However, the only difference was that Li Lin would always tell his father about some of the interesting things that he had encountered while he was out there, and then he would handle the following matters that he couldn't bear to see happen by himself. The Li family's Patriarch would pretend to be extremely angry every time, but he would lose his temper every time he heard what his son had said.

The Li family's Patriarch felt that it was a bit strange today, so he asked his son, "What's fun today? Did you do something that you didn't dare to tell me about? " The Li family's Patriarch said very easily.

"I really did too much homework today, so I didn't go out," Li Lin said. "So there's nothing wrong with that. Lin'er knows that in the past, Lin'er was wrong before she was killed. She won't make this kind of mistake again in the future." Li Lin said. In the future, Lin'er will take the clan's mission as her primary goal. Father can be at ease. "

"Yeah, Lin'er has grown up." The Li family's Patriarch said, somewhat unaccustomed to it.

"Thank you, father, for your praise." "Li Lin said again." Father, actually, the reason I came here today is to discuss with you how to maximize the Li Family's benefits while not offending other powers. " Li Lin said, "The current situation is still very unclear. First of all, we do not know Nangong's strength, nor do we know if what Chengying said is true or false. In addition, other clans are also infiltrating Jinling, if Nan Gong's situation is true and if he really helped us get Jinling, then we would have become the target of public criticism. Moreover, at that time we still have not established ourselves in Jinling, it would be very easy for us to lose Jinling again, and even our Li City would not be able to protect it. If Nangong is lying, then he must have a reason for letting us go to Jinling. Then, we need to consider how we should handle this matter. "

After Li Lin finished speaking, he said no more.

"Didn't you hate these things the most?" The Li family's Patriarch asked curiously.

"Lin'er was previously insensible, but now that she has understood this principle, Father, what do you think we should do?" Li Lin vaguely explained.

"Regardless of whether Nangong's words are true or false, our strength cannot be revealed. How about this, you first bring a portion of our family's strength and rush to Jinling openly. Afterwards, I will have Elder Li bring another portion of our people and go to Jinling in secret. From time to time, he only needed to do so. Also, pick three of these guards to protect your safety. " The Li family's Patriarch said.

"Thank you father, queue number 111213, come with me." Li Lin did not refuse, nor did he doubt the Patriarch's distrust of him.

"Lin'er, you must be careful in everything you do!" The Li family's Patriarch said worriedly.

"Don't worry, father. Lin'er will not seek death." Li Lin said to the Li family's Patriarch.

For some reason, the Li family's Patriarch heaved a sigh of relief.

Cheng Ying bid his farewells to the Li family's Patriarch, "If the Patriarch is so righteous, I would be deeply grateful if Prince knew."

"Master Chengying is being too courteous." After the Li family's Patriarch finished speaking, Cheng Ying and Li Lin left.

After walking for not too long, Li Lin went over to Chengying and said, "Young Master Chengying, how about we rest here tonight. The next town is still very far away, we won't be able to make it before nightfall."

"This, how about we …" Chengying was somewhat anxious about the situation in Jinling.

"Don't worry, young master Chengying. We'll leave tomorrow morning. If we increase our speed, we'll reach Jinling City in about 15 days." Li Lin persuaded.

"Alright then." Cheng Ying glanced at Li Lin and agreed in the end.

"Right now, everyone should go to the inn up ahead to rest. We'll leave first thing tomorrow morning." Li Lin instructed the people below.
