[Comprehensive classics] I build a dynasty in the book

Immediately after the imperial examination was the palace examination. Although Lin Yuzhou won the honor, the Lin family was not in a hurry to celebrate, and everything would wait until the palace examination was settled.

When Lin Ruhai returned to Beijing, even Jia Mu couldn't say anything about his refusal.

In the study, Lin Ruhai finished reading Lin Yuzhou's article on the meeting, and took a deep breath. Lin Yuzhou's articles are always sharp and sharp, and this one is no exception. He was surprised that Chen Minchun would actually choose his son as Huiyuan , which does not match his preferences.

"Are you sure about the imperial examination?" Lin Ruhai raised his head and asked.

"It depends on what kind of articles His Majesty likes."

Lin Ruhai twitched the corners of his mouth, his son had no awe of the royal family at all, which made him very worried.

"Father." Lin Yuzhou asked, "What do you think of the prince's choice of concubine?"

Lin Ruhai frowned: "What news did you hear?"

"It's all false news. I have something to tell my father about the third prince."

Lin Yuzhou told the story of the third prince's Wenchang Temple, and Lin Ruhai shook his head after listening, "You are worried about Yu'er's marriage, right? The third prince's behavior is very inappropriate. Are you worried that he will use his marriage as a bargaining chip to win courtiers?"

Lin Yuzhou raised his eyebrows: "I'm afraid he's already doing this."

"Based on the emperor's love for the third prince, he has this capital, and his marriage value is very high." Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and said, "My Lin family has meritorious service for many generations. Yu'er does not need to enter the palace to run for election. Even if the emperor wants to Given the marriage, Yu'er will also be the candidate for the prince and concubine, and the third prince will not choose our family to marry."

"He is already well-known far and wide. He doesn't need a noble family as his in-laws, but needs a powerful family as his backing."

After hearing this, Lin Yuzhou said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it, I'm a little worried about that imperial concubine Chen in the palace."

"The friendship between the Lin family and the Zhen family has always been superficial. Concubine Chen should not have noticed our family."

After Lin Ruhai said so, Lin Yuzhou was still worried, and he was going to ask Ji Shengyan to help him keep an eye on the palace.

The father and son stayed in the study for a long time. Apart from testing Lin Yuzhou, Lin Ruhai spent the rest of his time telling Lin Yuzhou the contacts he had accumulated over the years.

Half a month later is the palace examination, Lin Yuzhou is about to enter the court, Lin Ruhai has to share part of the burden on Lin Yuzhou, this is something that must be experienced as the heir of the Lin family.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of being missed by thieves. Lin Yuzhou is worried about Lin Daiyu, and she is really missed.

In the Guanju Palace, the imperial concubine Zhenshi is sitting on a soft couch, and there is a beautiful woman kneeling at her feet.

"Get up quickly, your sealing decree will come out in a few days, and then we will need to be worthy of our sisters and sisters."

"Thank you for your pity on the imperial concubine, and the slaves and servants must tie grass rings to repay the kindness of the empress."

Mrs. Zhen got up and helped the girl up, "The two families of Zhen and Jia are family friends. You and I should have been helping each other. Sister Yuanchun has suffered in recent years."

Jia Yuanchun took a step back and hurriedly said he didn't dare.

Zhen's tone became more gentle: "Forget it, you go back to the palace first, and wait for the good news."

After Jia Yuanchun left, the third prince Ji Cong came out from the apse, "Why did the concubine mother help her? Don't you feel bad that she has become the imperial concubine of the father?"

"Hehe." Zhen Shi covered her mouth and chuckled, "She wants a fortune, so I will give her a fortune. As for whether she can bear it, it depends on her own fortune."

Ji Cong frowned and asked, "What does the concubine mother mean by that?"

"Your royal father can't rub the sand in his eyes. The Jia family dares to play a trick of harboring Prince Yizhong's posthumous son. Even if they report the news by themselves now, this lump will always exist. The Jia family has no way out. Whether they are rich or not, it is all up to them." In my son, in your hands."

"Son understands." Ji Cong helped Zhen Shi to the side of the soft couch: "Thank you, mother concubine, for planning for my son."

Mrs. Zhen sat down on the soft couch again, called Ji Cong to her, and said with regret: "The Fu family woke up early, and sent away Fu Yao's mother and daughter early, wasting our planning."

"I thought I could win over the Fu family through Fu Yao, but I didn't expect Fu Chengguang to be so cruel to his wife and daughter. Anyway, this feud has already been settled, so it's useless to think about it, so let's think of other ways."

"A good chess piece is wasted." Zhen snorted coldly, she would not be soft-hearted if someone had a short-sighted view of not wanting to be wealthy and seek their own death.

Zhen Shi asked the maid beside her to take off her armor, and said to Ji Cong: "Your father has selected several candidates for the concubine for you, you should take a look at it when you have time."

"The choice of the main concubine is all decided by the mother concubine and the father, but the side concubine has some ideas about the son." Sitting on the stool brought up by the maid, Ji Cong said: "The son has the support of his grandparents behind him, and there is no shortage of money. Yes, I have met several famous scholars in the past few years, and my reputation is not bad, but in terms of military power, I am not as good as my second brother."

Zhen Shi is a smart woman, she immediately understood what Ji Cong meant, and asked, "Which adult did you contact?"

"Wang Ziteng."

"Wang Ziteng is a good candidate, but it's a pity that he doesn't have a biological daughter. Do you want to accept his sister's daughter? The Jia family depends on us now. Do you want to accept his daughter?"

"It doesn't necessarily belong to the Jia family. Wang Ziteng has two younger sisters. One of them married Ziweishe's Xue Gong. After her husband died, she took her children to Beijing and now lives in the Rongguo Mansion."

"The Xue family is as rich as the Zhen family, so you can accept her as a side concubine." Mrs. Zhen fiddled with her round fingernails, then suddenly raised her head and said, "I heard that Lin Ruhai's family also went to Beijing, and his daughter also went to Beijing." It's marriageable age."

"Mother and concubine, the Lin family is noble, and will never let the prostitute daughter become the prince's side concubine. If I marry her..."

"Who told you to marry her? Although it's a bit difficult, it's a matter of human effort. The status of the prince's side concubine is not low. When I plan to see, it would be good to have more noble in-laws. What's more, their family has a family. A club member, maybe even the number one scholar."

Ji Cong got up and made a big salute to Zhen Shi: "Thank you, Mother Concubine!"

Concubine Chen's conversation with Ji Cong quickly spread to the East Palace.

Ji Shengyan leaned against the table, under the candlelight, his face looked more serious.Many thoughts flashed in his heart, thinking that if Lin Yuzhou found out about this news, he might sneak into the palace and directly kill Zhen Shi and Ji Cong.

"Prince, do you want to tell Lord Lin the news?" Lu Shengrong, the chief eunuch of the East Palace, stepped forward and asked.

Ji Shengyan squinted his eyes: "I'll come in person, let the person who sent the news leave Guanju Palace, and let someone else lurk."

Lu Shengrong bowed and said, "The prince is benevolent."

Ji Shengyan glanced at him, and looked down at the plan on the table. It was full of his arrangements for the six ministries of the court. Among them, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites had already begun to act according to his plan, especially the Ministry of Industry, including Lin Yuzhou The drawings provided have achieved remarkable results in engineering, and now he has to solve the other two problems.

The Ministry of Households is controlled by Ji Cong, and the Minister of Officials is the confidant of Emperor Jialong. Ji Shengyan needs to spend some thought to keep these two departments in his hands.

Ji Shengyan wrote the name of the Zhen family on the paper. Lin Ruhai has returned to Beijing. The corrupt group in the south of the Yangtze River with salt transportation as the core can move. The Zhen family has close contacts with the officials of the household department. It will change.

Ji Shengyan looked at Lu Shengrong, and ordered: "Let Ji Zhao come to the East Palace tomorrow."

"Yes."

"Back off, all the court ladies who were arranged for a trial marriage in the palace have been dismissed."

"If the Empress asks..."

Ji Shengyan glanced at Lu Shengrong.

"Your servant understands." Lu Shengrong bowed and retreated.

Ji Shengyan turned off the lights in the study room, changed into night clothes and flew out of the palace. In the middle of the night, there was an extra person on Lin Yuzhou's bed.

Before he could speak, Lin Yuzhou was gagged, and it took him a long time to catch his breath. Ji Shengyan took this opportunity to tell his reason for coming.

Lin Yuzhou smiled sinisterly and said, "It's all a disaster, why don't you kill it?"

Ji Shengyan pressed Lin Yuzhou's limbs and kissed his forehead, "Lin Daiyu will be fine, I promise."

Lin Yuzhou's eyes were dark, he leaned on Ji Shengyan's arm and asked, "When will you be emperor?"

Ji Shengyan pinched Lin Yuzhou's face, "Soon."

"The method that a harem woman can come up with is probably related to the back house. The backyard of our house is simple. Her breakthrough may be placed in Jia's house. The old lady Jia can do anything for the Rongguo Mansion." Lin Yuzhou flipped Lie down on his body, and said: "But if Jia Yuanchun gets a good position, will Mrs. Jia still listen to Concubine Chen?"

These aristocratic families are not so easy to control. What they are best at is casting their nets everywhere. They are well versed in the way of protecting their homes and homes, and they will never put their eggs in one basket.

"It's hard to tell the difference between Zhen and Jia, and the appearance is inseparable." Lin Yuzhou lay back, and his counterattack was very simple. If Ji Cong dared to stretch out his hand, he dared to chop it off.

Ji Shengyan said, "Let them fight internally first, and I'm going to launch the Jiangnan Salt Transport."

"Then the Zhen family is no better than the Jia family. Jia Yuanchun was personally trained by Mrs. Jia, so she definitely doesn't want to be subordinated to others. If the Zhen family is shaken, the influence of the Zhen family's harem will be greatly reduced, and it is likely to be backlashed."

"Let them sing this scene by themselves. The palace exam will be held on March [-]th, and we will be able to be together in the future."

Lin Yuzhou raised his eyebrows: "Your mother didn't prepare a concubine candidate for you?"

Ji Shengyan picked up Lin Yuzhou's hair and sniffed it lightly, "She can't control me."

Lin Yuzhou pursed his lips. The relationship between mother and son is not good enough. The queen is a person who is willing to give everything for Emperor Jialong. She also said whether she has a son Ji Shengyan in her heart. He is more like her bargaining chip.

He was lying in Ji Shengyan's arms. Anyway, as long as they are together, it is lucky to have a family, and it doesn't matter if they don't have a family. This time, he has the advantage in terms of relatives, so he should compensate his partner more in terms of love.

He has this idea, but he won't let Ji Shengyan know, he needs to know that this person is very good at certain things.

The author has something to say: A lot of things happened a year ago, so I will try my best to update it.
