[Red Mansion] Reborn Lin Ruhai

Early the next morning, the two of them woke up and washed up, and Lin Ruhai rushed to the Meridian Gate to wait for the court.

The early court starts at Maochu (about 5 o'clock), but the ministers often have to schedule an hour in advance.At that time, it was not yet dawn, Xiao Zhelin originally wanted Lin Ruhai to go with him later.But the other party insisted on refusing, so he had to order a few servants to send him away with a lantern.

All the ministers have arrived, and after the censor's shift is ordered, they will stand in two shifts, civil and military, and enter through the left and right gates respectively, and stand under the altar in front of Fengtian Hall.After the inspection, you walk in one by one, the civil servants live in the east, and the military generals stand in the west.After a moment of joy, the emperor arrived, and all the officials paid homage to him.After the emperor called out, all the ministers thanked him and stood with their wats in their hands, and the hall was silent for a while.

The emperor ordered to discuss the matter, and then the ministers came out to play the matter.

Now the imperial court is fine, but the biggest thing is the flood in the south of the Yangtze River two months later.It's just that except for Lin Ruhai and the emperor, everyone didn't take this matter to heart, they just regarded it as a dream of the Holy Majesty, which might not come true.The two people who knew about this had already made a lot of arrangements. People from the Ministry of Industry had already gone to the Jiangzuo area to strengthen the dam, and Xiao Zhelin issued strict orders to the local officials in the south of the Yangtze River to survey the terrain and move the people to the Jiangzuo area two months later. High ground, in case of accidents.

But in a country, there are hundreds of small things every day, and today there is a lot of controversy about an issue, and it will be a bright day when it is time to retire.Seeing that it was past the time for breakfast, Xiao Zhelin was already in a hurry, Ru Hai was still hungry, and it took him two hours to stand in the hall.He was not in good health, he was drunk yesterday and didn't eat much, how could he endure such torment.

He wanted to keep him for dinner, but fearing that Lin Ruhai would not agree, Xiao Zhelin had no choice but to give all the ministers to eat in the corridor of the hall.The ministers entered the palace at Yinshi, and most of them did not eat. After hearing this, they all secretly lamented the compassionate grace of the Holy Majesty.In the past, when the discussion was late, the emperor would occasionally give food, so everyone didn't think about it, and just accepted it with gratitude.

Not long after, people from Guanglu Temple came to set up the dining table and tidy up the wine and food. The princes and officials above the second rank sat in the hall, the fifth to third rank and the officials of the Hanlin Academy were outside the gate of the hall, and the rest were below the fifth rank. Only a small case was placed under Dan Chi.This is the level, no one can be an exception.

Lin Ruhai was seated next to the princes.

Xiao Zhelin has five princes in total. The eldest prince is 21 years old now, and the fifth prince is 15 years old. Except for the fifth prince, the other four princes have entered the court.The eldest prince and the fourth prince were born after the Yuan Dynasty, and the rest were born by concubines.Since the death of the Yuan Dynasty, the eldest prince has become more and more stable. Under the protection of his elder brother, the fourth prince has lived a very comfortable life. The 17-year-old eldest child still does not lose his innocence.

Sitting next to Lin Ruhai was the fourth prince. Compared with ordinary noble children, these four princes were somewhat strange.

The might of this life is extraordinary and quite courageous.He doesn't like writing and ink, only loves to wield knives and sticks, and threatens to become a general in the future, which is rare in the royal family.But Lin Ruhai thinks it's good, he has a straightforward and unrestrained temperament, so why bother to get entangled in power tricks.The so-called ruthlessness of the royal family has been common since ancient times when brothers Ni Qiang and brother Ni Qiang fought for the throne and killed each other. Although these four princes have no ambitions, they are not threatening. It would be good to be a rich and virtuous king in the future!

As soon as the palace servant brought the soup, the fourth prince took a look into Lin Ruhai's bowl, looked at his own, then looked at other people's, and then stared at Lin Ruhai's bowl again, full of doubts.Lin Ruhai didn't understand what it meant at the beginning, but when he thought about it, he couldn't help but blush, and secretly scolded Xiao Zhelin for being an asshole, and seeing the fourth prince staring at him, he couldn't help but nodded and pulled a forced smile.

After eating, everyone thanked them for their kindness, and then they all went to the government office.

The fourth prince Xiao Cheng rubbed behind the eldest prince Xiao Qian, and tugged at the other's sleeve.Seeing that the eldest prince turned his head, he whispered: "Brother Huang, there is a strange thing." When he said this, he was still frowning, with a troubled look on his extremely resolute face, with a little ignorance and doubt , looks very funny.

The eldest prince couldn't help but patted his younger brother on the head, and asked with a smile: "Is it weird or not? It's because you want to be funny again!"

"Brother Huang, I'm not joking!" Seeing that his elder brother didn't believe him, Xiao Cheng frowned anxiously, stomped his feet and said, "I'm not a child anymore, don't keep coaxing me like this!" He lowered his voice in his ear: "I took a look when the soup was served just now. Everyone's soup is lotus seed soup, and Master Lin's is bird's nest porridge. Moreover, I heard that Master Lin did not leave the palace yesterday. It is said that I'm staying in Tingfeng Palace, Father never leaves foreign ministers in the palace overnight, don't you think it's strange?"

Xiao Qian looked at it for a while, seeing that his younger brother didn't seem to be lying, he couldn't help but frowned and thought hard about the reason.

After a long while, Fang sighed and said: "Father did this, there must be his purpose, we as ministers and sons should not speculate wildly. Mr. Kuang Lin was originally the former member of the East Palace of the father, and the inspection of the salt administration these years is also a great effort "Father Huang believes that he is not comparable to others. Fourth brother, don't worry about what you have and what you don't have. It is serious to study hard and learn some strategies. It is not us who just blindly ride horses and fencing swords and show off bravery for a while. What the prince should do!"

Xiao Cheng waved his hands and said: "Don't let me learn the ways of Confucius and Mencius, I get a headache when I mention it. After all, I am old now, and I don't have to go to school with my master anymore, you come to study again! A man should follow the example of Huo and Wei. The three-foot sword, galloping across the battlefield, expelling Rong and Di, building inexhaustible honors, let me study all day long, and I don’t have to take the Jinshi and Juren, can I still be a doctor?” After saying that, he left without looking back.

Xiao Qian shook his head and laughed, his younger brother still has the same temperament, sometimes he is straightforward and straightforward, and sometimes he is stubborn and refuses to listen to instructions, making him study is more difficult than killing him!It's really popular and it's not a laugh or not, so I have to let him go.Anyway, as a prince, even if he can't make great achievements in his official career in the future, he can at least be named a prince. No one dares to bully him!

After thinking about it, Xiao Qian couldn't help but frown again, the royal father must have cared too much for Mr. Lin!Although the six ministers are all close ministers of the emperor, it is not uncommon for them to be summoned from time to time, but it is a bit strange to accompany them every day, and they are all summoned by themselves.Nowadays, no one in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty knows that Lin Ruhai is the most capable person in front of the emperor. The victory of Long Chong is rare in the world, and he has envied many important officials and officials!

Everyone only regarded him as an old minister of the Eastern Palace, so he was very close to him, but Xiao Qian always felt that the truth seemed not so simple.After all, no matter how much the emperor values ​​a minister, he can't cover everything!For example, today's offering of food, with the utmost care and compassion, is already blatant and does not avoid suspicion. Is it just the affection of the monarch and his ministers?What's more, his father was a cold person, and he didn't pay much attention to the princes and princesses.Now that he is so careful with a minister, how can the word "wooing" be explained?

Not to mention how the eldest prince is doing, but Lin Ruhai has not yet recovered his temper when he returned to the official office.Just now his attitude towards that guy has changed a bit, but now that these things happen again, can't he be more peaceful, and must everyone know about it?However, even though he did this, it was only for the time being. Recently, the bureaucracy has a lot of affairs, and there is no time for him to feel sorry for himself.When I got busy for a while, I forgot the accident just now!

Not long after, Zhang Huai, the new servant of the Ministry of Officials, came in and reported: "My lord, this year's official examinations and junior officials have all been gathered. Please have a look at them!"

Lin Ruhai took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but nodded secretly.He asked Zhang Huai to be in charge of this year's school examination for officials, with the intention of testing his talents.In the affairs of the Ministry of Officials, the annual examination of hundreds of officials is the most complicated. Due to the large number of officials, various mistakes often occur.Looking at what Zhang Huai said today, the words are simple and clear, not as complicated and gorgeous as others, and I still don't understand why after reading it for a long time.

Not only that, but the exams for each official are also very detailed.It is not based on authority, but everything is based on political achievements. It not only lists the achievements of hundreds of officials in detail, but also includes their reputation among the people and the evaluation of the people.And thus it will be divided into upper, middle and lower classes. The upper class is those with excellent official reputation, the middle class is for mediocrity, and the lower class is for those who do harm to the village.According to the level, rewards such as promotion and commendation are given, or punishments such as dismissal, demotion, idle residence, and serving the people are given.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but be overjoyed after reading it. Zhang Huai is really a talent. If he entrusts the matter of the flood to him, he can rest assured!Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai went to see the emperor, told the matter about Zhang Huai, showed him the official document, and said with a smile, "Leaving this matter to him will definitely work. I don't want to see the miserable situation in my last life again!"

After Lin Ruhai finished speaking, seeing that Xiao Zhelin didn't answer, he couldn't help being puzzled. When he looked back, he realized that someone didn't listen at all.Instead, his eyes were shining, and he was staring at him obsessively, his mouth was slightly open, and there was a colored smile on his lips. He looked like a fool who was out of his mind, and couldn't help being annoyed. He slapped his face on his face and scolded him. Said: "Bastard, did you listen to me? I don't know what you thought, showing such an expression, and, don't look at me like that!"

At that time, Xiao Zhelin saw Lin Ruhai's frowned eyebrows and angry face, he couldn't help but think of his drunken seductive style yesterday, and couldn't help but feel swayed.Suddenly he was slapped, and couldn't help being startled, Fang saw his lover looking at him angrily, and his heart trembled again, Ruhai's angry look is also very charming!It's just that these things can't be said casually, so he hurriedly grabbed the other person's hand, rubbed it in the palm of his hand, and said with a smile: "I listen to you!"

Lin Ruhai withdrew his hand, glared at him, and said angrily: "Do you know what I said, so you just listen to me?"

Xiao Zhelin lowered his head, and said to himself: No matter what you say, I will listen to you.It's just that he didn't dare to say these words, otherwise, Ruhai would be angry again!
