"Your Majesty, Lin Shangshu is asking to see you." Grandpa Kangxi was working in his palace to read the memorial, when a eunuch suddenly came up to report this.

"Oh?" Kangxi put down the memorial in his hand, quite curious in his heart.As the saying goes: If you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, this Lin Ruhai suddenly came to ask to see him, could there be something wrong?Thinking of this, Kangxi nodded slightly: "Let him in."

"Yes!" The eunuch's characteristic sharp voice sounded, and then he backed out.

The old man sat upright on the chair, casually tapping his fingers on the desk, closing his eyes and resting his mind.This is what Lin Ruhai saw when he came in.

"Slave Lin Ruhai, kowtow to the emperor!" Lin Ruhai was not sloppy, slapped his sleeves twice, knelt down on the ground and saluted Mr. Kang.

"Get up." The old man opened his eyes and said lightly, "Sir."

After hearing this, the left and right maids quickly moved a chair.After thanking the emperor, Lin Ruhai sat on the chair with only half of her buttocks beside her.

"Aiqing is here to report something important?" Elder Kang looked at Lin Ruhai neither as if he was in a hurry nor as if he was about to submit a memorial, so he couldn't help becoming curious.

"Uh..." Lin Ruhai pondered for a while, and said his request.

When Mr. Kang heard it, he was happy.If Lin Ruhai hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten about it.After all, he has been so busy with Yinfeng's affairs in the past few months, and the general election has also been handed over to the fourth concubine to prepare, but he forgot about it for a while.

"Ruhai..." Mr. Kang looked at Lin Ruhai with a smile: "Do you want to ask for the grace of exempting your eldest girl from the draft?"

"Exactly." Lin Ruhai begged respectfully: "I also ask the emperor to be considerate of this servant's love for daughters, and to grant this servant's request."

"But..." Mr. Kang put on an embarrassing look on purpose: "Ruhai... If everyone is like you and asks me to exempt his daughter from the draft because of his love for his daughter, isn't this the rule of the general election? broken?"

In fact, where does this happen?Not everyone is qualified to meet the emperor and ask for exemption from the show.It's not that all qualified people are not happy that their daughters enter the palace for draft.

Even those who are qualified but unwilling to have their daughters enter the palace may not necessarily reach the age of the draft this year.Therefore, such deletions, deletions, and deletions have only been those few people who have come to beg Mr. Kang for decades.This year, Lin Ruhai is really the only one.

The reason why the old man said that was just to make things difficult for Lin Ruhai deliberately, to see how he would react.

"..." Lin Ruhai was silent, how could he not know the reason behind this?In the end, he frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "I have heard about this general election, and the journey was a lot of hard work. I have always regarded my two daughters as the jewel in my palm, and I really can't bear to suffer. The youngest daughter of the slave does not need to be drafted." I just hope that the eldest daughter can be like the younger daughter and avoid the pain of drafting."

"You really think so?" Mr. Kang looked up and down Lin Ruhai with strange eyes: "Is it really decided like this?"

"Back to the emperor, what this slave said is definitely not false." Lin Ruhai pleaded again: "Please forgive me for loving my daughter."

"In this case..." Mr. Kang pretended to think for a while before he said reluctantly: "Then I will agree." But I only said that your daughter will be exempted from the draft, and I didn't say that I would not give you a marriage!The old man added this sentence in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.

He didn't plan to say this, but waited for the day when Lin Ruhai received the order... He really wanted to know what expression Lin Ruhai would have when he received the order?

The old man showed a slight smile, and immediately made a decree, exempting Lin Ruhai's daughter from being drafted.

Lin Ruhai thanked Mr. Kang happily after receiving Mr. Kang's order, and left the palace happily.Along the way, his heart was full of joy, and he walked with joy.

Along the way, his face was full of red light.What the palace people saw was the wind blowing from Master Lin's feet, and he was full of energy when he walked, as if he had taken some magic medicine.

Lin Ruhai was so happy that he was so happy, how could he know that the poor man would be knocked unconscious by a thunderbolt in a short time.I just hope he can hold on.

Just like that, Mr. Lin went back to the mansion happily, and when he told Jia Min like this, the couple were very happy.It's just that Lin Ruhai kept one thing a secret. He didn't tell Jia Minyao's younger sister about it. He just wanted to take one step at a time and talk about it when the time comes.

In this way, when it was time for the general election, Lin Daiyu was exempted from the draft and stayed at home.Daiyu herself doesn't care, anyway, for her, the major matters of marriage are decided by her parents.

Anyway, Daiyu believed that with the eyes of her parents, she would definitely find an excellent husband for her.

It's just puzzling... She has already been exempted from the draft, so why should she learn the rules?

Jia Min originally thought the same way, since both daughters were exempted from the draft, why bother to learn the rules of the palace?But when she said this, the two nuns refused.The reason is that this is the order of Lord Su Mara, and they dare not disobey it.

Jia Min was speechless and had no choice but to let them go.

But Daiyu doesn't care, anyway, she has been studying for nearly a year, and with her intelligence, she has already learned it easily.Now continue to learn, not too tired.

In this way, everything was calm and peaceful until the end of the general election.

But when Lin Ruhai and Jia Min were thinking about which family was better for Daiyu and worthy of their own daughter, an imperial decree came down and dazzled them both.

"By God's blessing... Lin Shangshu's eldest daughter is virtuous and virtuous, Zhong Min is smart and elegant, and has a dignified character. Today, I marry the emperor's twelfth son, Yu Fujin, and choose a date to get married after the year. Hereby."

"..." Lin Ruhai's dumb Xie En received the order, and Jia Min looked at each other speechlessly. Who can tell him what's going on? !

I thought the imperial decree was over, but who knew that the eunuch smiled slightly and revealed another imperial edict.This made everyone in the Lin Mansion speechless, so, keep kneeling!

"By God's blessing... Lin Shangshu's second daughter is virtuous and virtuous, Zhong Min is smart and elegant, and has a dignified character. Today, I marry the emperor's thirteenth son to Fu Jin, and choose a date to get married after the year. This is my honor."

"..." Lin Ruhai was at a loss for words. If nothing else, is there any other difference between the two edicts besides changing their names?Your majesty, do you dare to be lazy? !Do you get tired of thinking too many words? !

Also, he knew that Yao'er had been settled, but what happened to Yu'er? !Can anyone tell him what the hell happened?

Lin Ruhai was flustered by the wind, feeling desolate in his heart.Dazed for a moment, he forgot to accept the order to thank him, but the eunuch's soft voice brought him back to his senses: "Master Lin, congratulations."

Congratulations, sister, congratulations!Who wants this grace!Can he not?Lin Ruhai accepted the imperial edict with a full face and forced a smile.Just looking at the imperial decree in his hand, his eyes almost sparkled.Can he resist the decree?can it? !

Thinking about it with his toes, he knew that it was impossible to resist the decree, Lin Ruhai felt so bitter in his heart... Does he want to cry?The two daughters have been given, and he has the urge to beat up!

"My lord Lin, the emperor has given you great grace this time. Congratulations." But the ignorant eunuch was still chattering, and what he said was undoubtedly adding fuel to the flames.Pumped Lin Ruhaiqi's temples.

Fortunately, she still had some sense, so Lin Ruhai laughed a few times, asked someone to offer a generous amount of silver, and sent him away.

Everyone in the Lin family was about to congratulate the master, but found that his master had an old face and pulled his wife towards the inner courtyard.Now all the servants, but the monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, they looked at each other, and didn't understand why his master looked like this for such a big good thing.

Anyone can understand that Lin Ruhai is angry, and very angry!

"Master, what's going on here?" Jia Min looked flustered, looking at the two imperial edicts in Lin Ruhai's hand, he felt like a bolt from the blue.Didn't both daughters go to the draft?Why is there such an edict?Could it be that she had hallucinations?

"I..." Lin Ruhai took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.Looking at the imperial decree, he smiled wryly: "I don't know why Yu'er was accused of marriage..."

"Also?" Jia Min keenly discovered the loopholes in Lin Ruhai's words, and hurriedly asked, "Why did the master say that? Why did you only talk about Yu'er and not Yao'er?"

"This..." Lin Ruhai hesitated for a while, and finally explained the reason of the matter clearly.Finally, he shook his head bitterly and said: "Yao'er's current affairs, I told the emperor when I knew it, but the emperor has made up his mind and cannot change it. But I never expected that even Yu'er was accused of marriage. The emperor has never I never said that!"

"Master, I don't understand." Jia Min felt discouraged after learning the reason. "There are so many ladies in the capital, why are you focusing on Yu'er and Yao'er? You know, we only have these two daughters!"

Lin Ruhai sighed, now that he had thought about it for a while, he could guess the truth somewhat. "I'm afraid that this marriage was decided three years ago. It's just that Yu'er and Yao'er were too young at that time, so the emperor didn't disclose this matter. Now that they are just of age, the emperor also Let’s get this done together.”

"Three years ago?" Jia Min was taken aback, and said in disbelief, "How old were they then! Why was it decided three years ago?"

"Don't you forget that the two princes were supposed to get married during the general election three years ago, but the emperor seemed to have forgotten them. Isn't the reason for this enough to explain? Don't forget, the two princes One of the princes is favored, and the other is the one who takes care of them. Even if the emperor ignores someone, he will not forget their lifelong events." Lin Ruhai smiled bitterly after speaking: "So three years ago, the emperor did not For them to marry, but for today!"
