Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber

Xihe Emperor Zen is located in the fourth son of the emperor, Prince Jing, who ascended the throne with the year name Jingxing, and was called Emperor Jingxing.With the ascension of the new emperor to the throne, the panic-stricken palace also calmed down.

The candlelight flickered, the shadows fluttered, and the entire Qinzheng Palace was filled with silence and depression, only the rustling sound of folding.Although the Supreme Emperor has abdicated, he has not moved out of the Shangqing Palace, the palace where the emperors of all dynasties lived The place.

With a squeak, the palace door was gently pushed open, and a figure walked in lightly. The person who came was the newly appointed Chief of the Inner Court, Dai Quan. He was originally the confidant eunuch of Emperor Jing Xing before he became the prince.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yan is seeking an audience outside."

Emperor Jing Xing was surprised.

"Qinghe, why are you here so late?"

"The slave does not know."

How could he know the purpose of his visit, Young Master Yan, His Majesty treats Young Master Yan like a brother, and he treats Young Master Yan with respect and respect, so he dares to ask questions at will.

"Xuan."

"My minister Yan Chengze greets His Majesty."

Yan Chengze knelt down respectfully to pay his respects. The intimacy and casualness of Emperor Jing Xing when he was only a prince was gone, and all that remained was respect and awe.Yan Chengze already has

"Get up, it doesn't have to be like this between me and you."

Emperor Jing Xing saw that his cousin who used to be as close as brother had also changed, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it really is too cold at a high place, now he is really lonely.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Cousin, you are a saint now. Naturally, you can't be as casual as before. I can't let people say that I don't understand the rules."

After Yan Chengze got up, he said in a relaxed and half-joking way. After following Emperor Jing Xing for many years, Yan Chengze knew his cousin the emperor very well. Now that Emperor Jing Xing had spoken, he naturally couldn't be as strict and respectful as before.

"With me here, who dares to argue."

Emperor Jing Xing bluntly expressed his intention to protect.

"Tell me, why did you come to see me so late?"

"Cousin, I'm here to give you a gift."

"Congratulations, hasn't uncle already delivered it?" Emperor Jing Xing looked at Yan Chengze suspiciously, suspecting that his cousin was playing a joke again.

"Cousin, the gift from my father represents the whole Yan family. It is different from mine. You will definitely like this gift from me, cousin."

"Oh? Then I have to take a closer look at what kind of gift it is."

"Cousin, I guarantee you will like it. If you like it, don't forget to reward me." Yan Chengze frowned triumphantly at Emperor Jing Xing. closer.

"As long as you can make me like me, I will agree to you, so it doesn't matter."

Seeing his self-confidence, Emperor Jing Xing was not stingy in offering rewards.

Yan Chengze put the big box he brought on the dragon case by himself, opened the box, and saw a thick stack of papers and booklets inside: "Your Majesty, please take a look."

Emperor Jing Xing took out a booklet, opened it and was shocked, he couldn't help staring at Yan Chengze and asked.

"Qinghe, how did you find out about this?"

"Your Majesty, these were not found out by my ministers, but were presented to Your Majesty by Mr. Lin, the censor of salt inspection in the south of the Yangtze River." Yan Chengze covered up the matter of Meng Yan giving him the box and turned to Lin Rudi.

"Lin Ruhai. This person is very cunning."

Mentioning Lin Ruhai Haijing Emperor Xing recalled that he had repeatedly courted Lin Ruhai but was rejected by him, and he couldn't help feeling dissatisfied; although Lin Ruhai later surrendered to him before he ascended the throne, even Lin Ruhai provided evidence of the crimes of the Zhen family and the third prince. Ji also made great contributions to his enthronement, but this could not completely eliminate Jing Xingdi's concealment from Lin Ruhai.In short, the emperor is a creature whose mind is smaller than the eye of a needle. He can't remember how many achievements you have made, but he will remember clearly every time you make a mistake. This can be said to be the commonality of emperors.

"If there is no gap in your heart, how can you sit on the position of inspector and censor, and the Lin family has been loyal to the emperor for generations, and all officials are loyal to the emperor and pure ministers." Yan Chengze commented from a relatively neutral standpoint.

"This statement is not false."

A pure minister who is only loyal to the emperor. Lin Ruhai was loyal to the Supreme Emperor before he was in power, and now Lin Ruhai is loyal to him. This box is Lin Ruhai's loyalty.

Fortunately, Lin Ruhai was loyal to the king and wanted to be a pure minister, otherwise he would be easily won over by his brothers. Not to mention others, his good third brother has been demoted to the king of Rongjun, relying on the love of the Supreme Emperor for the king of Rongjun in the past, It is hard to say who is sitting on this dragon chair today.If it hadn't been for the king of Rongjun jumping over the wall in a hurry to assassinate Lin Ruhai, forcing Lin Ruhai into a corner, it wouldn't be his turn to take advantage of it.Although he was not happy in his heart, Emperor Jing Xing still had to admit that he was able to sit on the throne so quickly because of Lin Ruhai.

The Supreme Emperor Chan was in his position. His third brother has been dissatisfied and has been secretly acting constantly. Originally, the Supreme Emperor had already been furious and reprimanded the Rongjun King because of the salt and silver incident of the Zhen family. Who knew that after the Zen position, the Supreme Emperor would overturn the matter and regain his favor. The king of Rongjun, the king of Rongjun relied on the favor of the Supreme Emperor to stumbling him overtly and secretly in the government affairs, which made him tired of coping and annoyed.Now the box presented by Lin Ruhai just solved the problem in his heart.

"Forget it, these are of great use to me, just to solve my urgent needs, so it doesn't matter if I favor him."

"I thank Your Majesty Long En on behalf of Lord Lin."

"Qinghe, what kind of benefits did Lin Ruhai promise you and let you speak for him like this." After solving his confidant's serious trouble, Jing Xingdi was in a good mood and started joking.

"It's no good. It's just that Lin Hengqing and I are old friends. Seeing that he is worried about his father, I want to help him a little bit. Besides, this matter is a big deal for you and the world. But cousin, you promise me not to forget it."

"How can I forget my golden words. You are old and young. Grandmother told me more than once that I would advise you to get married as soon as possible. Do you have a woman you like? I will give you a marriage order." Emperor Jing Xing changed the topic, then changed To Yan Chengze's marriage.

"Qinghe, the He family has been gone for many years, and you should let it go. You have been refusing to marry your grandmother and aunt. You are worried about this. The death of Qinghe He is not your fault. Why don't you let yourself go."

"After all, she is burdened by me. If she hadn't been engaged to me, she wouldn't have..."

"She was burdened by her father and brother. If it wasn't for her father and brother being partisans of King Zhongyi and King Zhongyi's unsatisfied illegal collection of wealth, the Supreme Emperor was furious and the He family was ransacked."

Emperor Jing Xing did not tell Yan Chengze the facts, but in Emperor Jing Xing's eyes, there was no difference between Uncle He's work for King Zhongyi and He's father's work for King Zhongyi. Of course, the He family was eliminated by the First Prince and the Third Prince It is more or less related to him and the Yan family.Although the He family is not a noble family, it can be considered a big family. There are quite a lot of officials in the family. How could his elder brother and third brother see the marriage between the He family and the Yan family and the He family to help him.

"Forget it. It's all over. I've let go of this matter. It's really unfilial to make my grandmother and mother worry about me."

"Now that you know, let's get married as soon as possible." My aunt acted as if he was her own child, and told the queen a lot about his cousin's marriage, and he had to relieve his aunt's worries no matter what.

"The minister has his eyes on a woman..."

"Oh, which girl is it? I will give you a marriage." Emperor Jing Xing heard that Yan Chengze must be looking at the daughter of an official family.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. It's just that I haven't confirmed her intentions yet. I'll ask Your Majesty to marry you when I'm sure in the future." Thinking of my sweetheart, Yan Chengze, I feel a little embarrassed.

"I agree. You will go south to see Lin Ruhai in a few days, and it's time for Lin Ruhai to go to Beijing."

"Grandfather has already ordered. He is worried about going to the academy first at the end of the month. Let me send my grandmother and sister south later." Yan Chengze was a little impatient to go south.

"Xuan'er is going to Yangzhou too? You go back and tell grandma to let Xuan'er stay in Beijing." Emperor Jing Xing's frown quickly eased.

"Why?" Yan Chengze was surprised, why did his emperor's cousin care about his sister.

"The Supreme Emperor has already spoken about next year's general election, what Do Concubine Zhen Gui means, and it's time for my younger brothers to get married." Mentioning Concubine Zhen Gui, Emperor Jing Xing was in a very bad mood, and he did not hide his disgust .

Emperor Xihe and Emperor Yuan died successively, and Emperor Xihe's harem was always taken care of by the imperial concubine Zhen. Except for Zhen Guifei's own children, none of their brothers and sisters had suffered or been wronged by the imperial concubine and her own children.

"General election? Cousin's parents don't have that idea at all." Neither the grandparents nor the parents intend to send their younger sister to the palace. The girl enters the harem again.

"The Yan family is my mother's family, and it has to go through a process."

Emperor Jing Xing avoided talking about it perfunctorily, and Yan Chengze was very self-conscious about people's faces. Seeing that Emperor Jing Xing didn't want to say any more, he kept silent and bowed and resigned. Emperor Jing Xing looked at Yan Chengze's leaving back and sighed. The person who took care of the harem for him, the empress was weak and sick, and his mother's cousin was the only person he could think of who could be used.

Yan Chengze left the palace with a heavy heart. Emperor Jing Xing was still thinking about the matter of King Rong and how to deal with the Supreme Emperor to let his own people take over the post of Jiangnan patrol salt censor.

Regardless of how Emperor Jing Xing dealt with Emperor Xihe, it was rumored in the palace the next day that the King of Rongjun was disrespectful and angry with the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor decreed that the King of Rongjun should be restrained. Half a month later, the official who will take over the post of inspector of salt in the south of the Yangtze River has finally been confirmed. , is Emperor Jingxing's confidant newly promoted Li Changwei Li Daren.

"...cough cough, your Majesty has sent a letter from the middle of the capital to order Mr. Li Changwei, a doctor in the household department, to take over the position of inspector and censor. Mr. Li will be here soon. After the handover, we can go to Beijing, and everything in Yan'er's house can be arranged. gone?"

After suffering for another month, Lin Ruhai's health got worse. Because he was afraid of being suspected and tabooed, Lin Ruhai refused to use medicine all the time, and now he is hanging with ginseng.Meng's life is uneasy for him, and Meng Yan's brothers and sisters are also worried.

"Dad, don't worry, mother and daughter have already made arrangements."

"Zhou'er, tomorrow you will take the second housekeeper to Beijing to arrange matters in Beijing, and take part of the family's wealth away first, so as not to go together in the future."

The Lin family is the scholarly family of Shilu's family. The Lin family has a lot of wealth passed down through the five generations. Not to mention anything else, the dowries of the mistresses of the past generations are quite a lot; It would be too eye-catching if they were transported to the capital together, so they would be taboo again.

"My son understands."

This day, Lin Ruhai was discussing with Meng Yan about the handling of the property, when the doorman came to report in a hurry.

"Master, Mr. Yan brought an adult to visit." Lin Ruhai couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard that.

"It should be Young Master Yan and Lord Li."

"Dad, when he saw the foreigner, the daughter resigned first!"

Meng Yan went back to the backyard with the account book in her arms, and Lin Ruhai hurriedly asked someone to invite guests in.
