The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Shui Rong went to his tent suspiciously, and saw a little eunuch standing at the door from a distance, poking his head, and when he saw him from a distance, he smiled and said, "Slave, please greet Prince Beijing." Shui Rong walked away from him with a smile After walking by, he suddenly turned around and kicked the servant to the ground.He always likes to put on an approachable, friendly and tolerant look like a respectable corporal, but it was the first time he was so angry that the little eunuch rolled around on the ground twice, as if he was in a daze.

"Who do you think you've hooked up with, and played tricks on me?" He snorted accusingly, lifted the curtain and went in, but it was the two father and son of the Wei family who greeted them with embarrassing smiles: " Lord."

Shui Rong took a deep look at them, nodded, walked a few steps to Lin Mo's bed, and stretched out his hand to lift his quilt. Sure enough, he saw a small bundle under the pillow. When he picked it up, he could hear the ceramic jar pinging and pinging. There were many rattling sounds.Shui Rong laughed and cursed inwardly, "Is the mole celebrating Chinese New Year? I'm really afraid of death."At the same time, I felt that such a person who is afraid of death, jumped off the horse and faced the tiger, I don't know what kind of thoughts.

But as soon as he entered the tent, he felt that something was wrong. The emperor was sitting on his chair upright. Lin Mo struggled and knelt on the bed covered with a quilt. He didn't dare to say anything more, so he saluted and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, Taiyin's leg is still injured, and it won't heal if there are any sequelae."

The emperor waved his hand, Zheng Li was about to go up to help Lin Mo sit down, when Shui Rong ran up first, but he was not born to serve others, so he happened to support Lin Mo's right arm, which had scratched a whole piece of skin, It caused him to gasp, and Shui Rong was a little anxious, and poured out all the jars in the small bundle: "Which one is your life-extending ointment?"

Lin Mo didn't see it either, but continued to kowtow on the pillow. He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. After such a ruckus, the cold sweat dripped down his face. He didn't feel it either, and just kept looking at the emperor. , there was a rare expression of pleading in his eyes.

The emperor was also helpless: "Go and proclaim King Qin."

Shui Rong shook his hands, and asked Lin Mo what was going on with his eyes.Lin Mo lowered his eyes to ignore him, reached out and took a small porcelain jar with blue patterns and unscrewed it. Just as he was about to drink it, he frowned and sniffed at the spout, then pushed it aside.

"What's wrong?" Shui Rong asked.

Lin Mo shook his head and refused to speak.

Shui Fu, that is, when Lin Mo was just brought back, he took a look from a distance, only felt that his breath was weak, his whole body was covered in blood, and behind him was a distraught Shui Rong. He didn't know whether to be shocked or sad. The voice of the imperial father Xuan Feng Tang, the imperial physician, was trembling. He also had a clear answer to the recent conjecture, but he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.After waiting for several hours, I finally heard that he woke up and his life was saved. I unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and found that the jealousy and suspicion in my heart had disappeared.

This person should have been just like him, with a golden crown and jade belt, rich clothes and fine food, born superior to others, one person below ten thousand above ten thousand.But by chance, he was actually more noble than the eldest brother and the second brother, but he had to bow his head and respect them as the first.Moreover, there is no need to be jealous - if he has always been Lin Qing's adopted son, then when his father is in power, he may still be able to recognize him.However, he has been adopted to Lin Hai, and even for the sake of his father's face, he can only be the Marquis of Jingyuan for the rest of his life.

With some pride, Shui Fu thought about the inscription Lin Mo wrote in the Lin Family Ancestral Hall in Shanxi, and thought fortunately, thanks to Shui Rong, he had drawn such a good comrade-in-arms under his banner early on, and his eldest brother and fifth younger brother's disciples There are many, but there is absolutely no one like Lin Mo who is smart and cautious, can accomplish great things and please his father.

Shui Rong treated him really well.

He went to Lin Mo's place with a lot of thoughts that he didn't know how to describe, and was frightened by the man's injury again. Seeing that his father was calm and didn't look like there was any serious matter, he went Boldly joked with him: "Why are you so unlucky this year? I was sick from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Do you want to go to the temple to burn incense sticks? Ask Jingning to donate lanterns to you."

Lin Mo never believed in these things, so he just shook his head lightly, begging the emperor to leave first with his eyes.It's just that the emperor said: "What do you want to say to Fu Zhi that you can't say in front of me?"

"Is there any king in the world, what the father wants to listen to, of course he should." Shui Fu hurriedly said.He thought that Lin Mo was going to say something related to water melting, and he was afraid that it would be embarrassing for the three of them. After all, Lin Mo is not just his capable subordinate now. If he could use it with peace of mind before, now he has to weigh it. It's better to pretend to be confused.

Unexpectedly, Lin Mo just glanced at the emperor in embarrassment, and said with difficulty: "It's just a random guess by my humble servants. Your Highness, the salt tax in the south of the Yangtze River this year is 1107 million taels, which is [-]% less than that in Anhui, and less than that in Guangdong and Guangxi." However, last year’s household registration inspection revealed that Jiangnan’s real estate is rich and the population is rich, and the price of salt is slightly higher than that of Anhui, Guangdong and Guangxi—” He gasped for a few breaths, his voice becoming weaker and weaker, “In summary, the Jiangnan Salt Administration has handed over the accounts for three years. It was rigorous and detailed, but there were some inconsistencies. The minister ordered someone to copy it, and marked the notes for any parts that did not correspond to the previous year. Your Highness—"

Shui Fufu said: "Take a break, don't talk anymore, I know, I will definitely ask someone to thoroughly check the account book when I go back..."

"No," Lin Mo said, "Your Highness, I beg you to supervise the inspection yourself. Lin Mo kowtows to you, please supervise the inspection yourself."

His voice of enduring pain sounded pitiful and sad, as if he was showing weakness, more like someone who was running out of time was explaining what happened behind him.The emperor clenched his fists, and managed to force a smile: "Jingyuanhou is truly worthy of being the pillar of the country. At this time, he is still worrying about the affairs of the household department. He is just worried about his own body." The emperor who is omnipotent, but has all kinds of helplessness towards this child.Hearing his words as if explaining the funeral, I couldn't help but worry that he would really go from now on.

If the empress knew, she might toss and turn again, unable to sleep all night.Even him, when he heard that Lin Mo and the others had encountered a tiger, he seemed to have forgotten to breathe.

If it was gone in the past, it would be fine, but if it is lost and regained, it can no longer afford to lose it again.

"Okay, I'll check it out. You don't have to worry about anything." Such a smart person as Shui Fu, how could he not understand that although Lin Mo pretended to avoid his father, he said these words on purpose To the emperor.Since ancient times, the salt administration has been an extremely important part of taxation, but in recent years it has gone from bad to worse. The final result of the government-supervised business administration is collusion between the government and businessmen for mutual self-interest. Stability will of course cause shocks.Shui Fu tried his best to pull Zhen Yingjia down, but in less than two years, he was reinstated under the weight of various forces, and he almost turned his nose out of anger.Now Lin Mo is simply begging the emperor to thoroughly investigate the Jiangnan salt administration with his own life.

Taking the south of the Yangtze River as an incision, spreading it down and clearing up the salt administration will not do any harm to enriching the national treasury.

The emperor looked at the two children who were sitting and lying down.

How he couldn't see that they were singing and acting in harmony.

But he was blinded by such poor acting skills.These two children are still too young, they don't know how to progress step by step, and they don't know how to recharge their batteries. He is also very contradictory. He is afraid that the children will form cliques for personal gain, form cliques and mess up the court, and he is also afraid that they will really go alone. , It was unpopular. When he first came to the throne, most of the people in the court obeyed his father. After being a loner for many years, those days were really too difficult.

But from the day when Lin Mo confided with him, he understood that some people are born to think that they are superior to others.The emperor thought about it, and turned his attention to the King of Beijing Jing who bowed his head and said nothing, wishing that he didn't exist.Shui Rong felt bad luck in his heart, although he had made up his mind to stand on the side of the upstarts, but he didn't have the guts to poke those tumors.He has always used an attitude of ignoring ordinary things to be a fool, not to offend, and to protect himself wisely.I really shouldn't have listened to this passage today.Judging from what the emperor said, it seems that he intends to fulfill Lin Mo's wish. When someone turned around and asked, he was in front of the imperial court at the time of Shui Rong, what would he think?

People are weird, they will hate those who used to fight with them, even more enemies.

Shui Rong was thinking wildly when he heard the emperor say: "Back when Lin Qing joined the household department, it was recommended by King Beijing. He said that Lin Qing was thoughtful and gentle, so it would be most suitable for her to work in the household department. Now that Lin Qing Hurt, he wants to find out this account again, why don't you work hard for him?"

Just know!

Shui Rong didn't expect to stop Shui Rong from bringing his guards to the paddock, but since the emperor let him go at that time, it would be too fussy to settle the score now.

He knew that there was no source for Lin Mo's bad temper.

Shui Fu smiled and said: "That's a good relationship. I haven't worked with Little Huangshu for a long time. Besides, Little Huangshu is Tai Yin's best friend. He knows everything, so we can communicate with each other. When we go back, we will invite Xiaohuang Uncle helped me."

Shui Rong smiled wryly and said he didn't dare to look down at Lin Mo. Seeing that his face was cold, as if he didn't have any emotions, he was stunned for a while, staring at those deep eyes and lost his mind.

Lin Mo coughed loudly.

Shui Fu said: "Father, Taiyin is still injured. Didn't the imperial doctor say that he should rest? It's not early, it's time to pass on the meal, and my son serves the meal to the father?" Since Lin Mo let go of his pride It's a trick, of course he can't live up to this intention, and he doesn't strike while the iron is hot to make the matter real, and he feels really sorry.

The emperor glanced at Lin Mo, and Shui Rong hurriedly said, "I asked the kitchen to cook red date porridge for Mr. Lin, and it's being stewed."

Shui Fu said strangely: "I never knew Little Huang Shu was such a caring person."

Whether Shui Rong is a caring person, he doesn't know for sure. Most of the actors who have played in the past have said that the King of Beijing Jing is gentle and considerate. He was obedient and gave what he asked for, but most of these responsiveness were in the nature of a little reward. The only difference was that Shui Fu and Lin Mo were two. He was always careful about Shui Fu, for fear that what he gave would make him notice. strange.And Lin Mo—this guy never asks for anything in a friendly manner. If he wants something, he must show his teeth and claws, intimidating and luring.

But now... Shui Rong glanced sideways and saw Lin Mo's frail look with lowered brows, and he couldn't feel his heart fluttering.

If he has always been so refined and elegant, he would give him everything, no matter how many people he offended, he would be willing.

Weidao said that beauty deceives people. He thought that he was still very affectionate. Although he was determined to let go of Shui Fu, he still put him on the top of his heart. However, Lin Mo occasionally showed weakness, and he could It made him feel so excited that he almost even resorted to swearing and swearing in exchange for making his brows stretch.

After the emperor and Shui Fu left, Lin Mo returned to his silent state. Shui Rong knew that he might have exhausted all his energy when he spoke just now, but he still felt uneasy in his heart. It looked like the long attendant in Lin Houye's mansion, don't say thank you, even a squeak is fine.

After all, Shui Rong was raised like a moon by stars, so he lost his temper before he knew it, and told Zheng Li to bring the chair to Lin Mo's bedside, playing with his medicine jars.

"Don't touch it, it's poisonous." Seeing that he was about to open his mouth, Lin Mo said hoarsely.
