The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

Chapter 368 I want to rely on me, I want to be beautiful

But in her current situation, she was in a dilemma.

Wang Ziteng himself has been promoted to the nine provinces inspectorate, and no one dares to underestimate his niece.But as a relative, this is a big head.It's not that the Wang family is careless, it's just that there is really no suitable one. In a family like the Jia family, no one else would consider Baochai except Mrs. Wang.Then there are those who are worse, and some descendants who do not grow up, like Xue Pan and his like, they must not be able to marry.

If you are looking for it in the Imperial Merchant, Xue Baochai must be a sought-after item, but what is the future if you look for it in the Imperial Merchant, especially when you see Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang like this. Gaoming is here, Aunt Xue is here, and Bai Ding is still alone.

Such a gap made Xue Baochai firmer in her determination to marry into an official family.But ordinary officials would not consider Xue Baochai, so Xue Baochai could only fall on Jia Baoyu's crooked neck tree!Even now, seeing Jia Baoyu's reluctance to make progress, Xue Baochai is still counting on Jia Baoyu to really live up to his so-called rumors of origin, and to make her husband and wife more expensive in the future.

The Jia family's gossip made Lin Hai happy for a long time, but before he could continue to be happy, a troublesome matter found his head!All of a sudden, after a long time, I went from watching the theater to being watched by others!

The accounts of the Salt Administration could not match up, since the former Zhen Yingjia had already pleaded guilty to the law, so this matter was blamed on Lin Hai!

Lin Hai took the news and sneered. Master Lin has passed away for less than half a year now, and these sneaky villains have all come out. Do you really think he is air?

"Come on, prepare a plain suit for me." Lin Hai is still in filial piety and cannot go out easily, so even if he knows that someone is going to frame him, he can only sit at home and wait.On the one hand, he was waiting for the results of the investigation by the hidden guards, and on the other hand, he was waiting for the emperor's summons.

Apparently, Lin Hai had guessed what the emperor was thinking, and the next day, the guards from the Ouchi came up to declare Lin Hai to enter the palace.

"My minister pays homage to the emperor, long live my emperor!" Lin Hai entered the hall wearing a plain suit, not as majestic as when he was wearing an official uniform, but the plain suit made Lin Hai's scholarly scent stand out. He looked like an old handsome man, his spirit was like flowing water, and his bones were like beautiful jade.

Look at Lin Hai like this.Only in the emperor's heart did he have the slightest belief that the fact that Prince Zhongyi had 'pursued' Lin Hai back then was indeed a handsome man!

"Lin Qing, let's get up!" Seeing Lin Hai get up.The emperor continued: "Did Lin Qing ever know the reason why I called you here?"

Lin Hai shook his head, "If you go back to the emperor, I will keep my filial piety at home, and I don't know why the emperor called me here." Even if you know about this kind of thing, you can only say you don't know!Who would foolishly tell the emperor.I know, I'm sick!

"The salt censor in the south of the Yangtze River came to report that the taxation of the salt government is a bit wrong." Under the emperor's signal, the Minister of the Household Department said to Lin Hai.

"Master Lin, as the former censor of salt inspection, you can't match the account of the salt administration. You can't escape the blame. The old minister begs to speak up and order a thorough investigation of Lord Lin." It was the head of the Chen family who had a grudge against the Lin family.

Everyone knows the grievances between the Lin family and the Chen family.If Lin Hai really fell into his hands, there would be absolutely no benefit for him.

Facing Mr. Chen's questioning, Lin Hai smiled, "Mr. Chen's words are funny. You also know that I am the former inspector of salt and censor! Back then, Mr. Zhen and I were friends. Oh, no, now it should be called Zhen Shumin's friendship. Zhen Shumin didn't say anything that the salt government's accounts were not up to par. Could it be that Mr. Chen thought that Zhen Shumin was blind at the time, or that Zhen Shumin was kicked in the head by a donkey at that time, and he was willing to help me, a person who has no relatives and no reason? Take the blame?"

Even when Lin Hai was in office, so what if there was a problem with the Yanzheng's account books, it was handed over, it was handed over!This unspoken rule in the officialdom since ancient times is that in-service indictment, if you are not found out during your tenure, then you are lucky, if you are found out, it will be unlucky!

"Master Lin's words are different. As far as I know, this granddaughter of the Zhen family is the sister-in-law of the daughter-in-law of the Lin family!" Mr. Chen said vaguely. People who don't know really think that the Lin family and the Zhen family are the same. Relatives!

Lin Hai laughed mockingly, "Lord Chen is really busy! Not only do you have to worry about the country and the people, but you also care about the court ministers. It's really not easy for relatives who have left the fifth service!"

Anyone would know the contempt in Lin Hai's words. They are all relatives who have passed the fifth service. What kind of relatives are these.If they have the same surname, they can still be said to be a family hundreds of years ago, but this is obviously necessary. Many ministers present secretly despise Mr. Chen in their hearts. If people with this kind of relationship are relatives, then relatives It's so worthless!

"Cough, cough, cough..." Mr. Chen coughed twice, and said without blushing, heartbeat, or panting: "This is our duty as courtiers." Fortunately, he was able to say it so cheekily!

"Okay, the salt administration's accounts are the top priority now. For other things, you should arrange a time and place to discuss!" Although this scene is good, time must also be considered.The salt tax in Jiangnan is an important source of income for the country. If the accounts are not up to date, it is natural to check it out!

Boom!Lin Hai knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, when I handed over my minister to Zhen Shumin, there was no problem with the salt government's accounts. If there were any problems, would this Zhen Shumin hand over my minister? He is not alone. Idiot, how could such a thing be done.” Anyway, Lin Hai insisted that when he handed over Zhen Yingjia, there was no problem with the account book.

Anyway, Zhen Yingjia is also dead, as long as Lin Hai kills the saying, he will not be afraid of anyone.Moreover, Lin Hai was a clean and honest official after all. He basically didn't touch anything on the ledger, even if he searched hard, he couldn't find it.

In fact, it is impossible to make a hard investigation, because the Yanzheng government has been a fat job since ancient times. Officials with small actions like Lin Hai are rare!The official in front of Lin Hai is now the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials, and the previous one is the cousin of the Supreme Emperor and the emperor's uncle.Under such a relationship, who would dare to make a thorough investigation.

As long as everyone didn't dare to mention it, Lin Hai didn't say anything. After all, when he was handed over to Zhen Yingjia, nothing happened.Who knows, Lin Hai did it, or Zhen Yingjia did it!If Zhen Yingjia did this, it is impossible for Lin Hai to be scapegoated!In the officialdom, only small officials take the blame for high officials, but there is no such thing as the reverse.

"This is natural. Lin Qing has served as the inspector of salt in the south of the Yangtze River for more than ten years. I still remember that every time the tax is paid, the salt tax in Jiangnan is always the first to enter the household department. And Lin Qing served as the inspector During the Yan Yushi period, Jiangnan has always been safe and peaceful, and Lin Qing has worked hard without credit, I remember all these things!" The emperor didn't blush when he said this, if the emperor reminded him once, did the emperor remember it? It's still an unknown!

Tears filled Lin Hai's 'moved' eyes, and he choked up and said: "The emperor is wise, although the humble minister is not a famous minister through the ages, he was also diligent and conscientious during his tenure, thank the emperor for his insight."

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard Lin Hai's words.Once again, I have seen Lin Hai's power, those little tears, that's really what he said.Look at this style, who dares to say that he is not loyal.

"Ahem, the main reason for asking Lin Qing to come here this time is to know if there is a backup for the Yanzheng's accounts." The emperor brought the topic back.

It stands to reason that if there is at this time, Lin Hai should also say that there is no, so that it conforms to the unspoken rules of the officialdom.But Lin Hai wanted to do the opposite. Today's Xunyan Yushi is the emperor's confidant, just like when the Supreme Emperor sent Lin Hai to the south of the Yangtze River. He has a heavy responsibility, and his time can't be spent on this matter.

So Lin Hai said loudly, "Yes, and there are more than one copy."

After hearing this, some people wanted to strangle Lin Hai to death, but they still had to stand obediently above the court, but those angry little eyes floated towards Lin Hai from time to time!

However, Lin Hai ignored, "For the sake of convenience, I asked my staff to make a copy of the backup. When I served as the inspector of salt and censor, I always asked my slaves to take this backup to the Ministry of Households to hand it over. Just in case the minister had ordered this backup to be handed over to the household department along with the salt tax, all household departments must now have the backup left by the minister at that time.

The other copy is in the hands of Mr. Chen, the current transfer envoy of salt transportation. After the official salt was robbed, Wei Chen once asked Mr. Chen to copy a copy in order to count the stock of official salt in the Jiangnan salt area. Check out the accounts! "In a word, if you want to frame Lin Hai, you must weigh the weight first. Lin Hai has already prepared both hands! Whoever wants to use the affairs of the salt administration to frame Lin Hai, Lin Hai is sure, and he can make him go around.

Lin Chang stood among the civil servants and smiled. He knew that these people would not get any benefits. When was his uncle ever played with by others, and only when he played with others. The evidence is more convincing!

Only some ministers who had served as officials in the Ministry of Households suddenly realized, no wonder Lin Hai made it so complicated back then, so he was waiting here!

They have been laying out more than ten years ago, and the Lin family really can't take it lightly.

All the ministers thought at the same time, and couldn't help being moved and saddened by Mr. Chen who just came out, but the grievances between the Chen family and the Lin family can't be recovered without such a thing. Therefore, Mr. Chen has nothing to be sad about. idea.
