- Reduce the cost of the harem.

This issue was put on the agenda in a few days, and there were three thousand concubines and beauties in the harem. Even Tantai Yu's most beloved Concubine Ya was afraid that she would not be spared the pain of money in the end.However……

Tan Taiyu stroked his slightly protruding forehead, and said, "Lin Ziqing, you'd better... don't push yourself too far."

If it is some expenses of the concubines in the harem, Tantaiyu can still decide to reduce it by a few points. However, once the marriage between the Empress Dowager Zhou and Feng Zhao is involved, Tantaiyu is really unwilling to intervene. Empress Zhou is the birth mother of the Son of Heaven. In her early years, Tantai Yu first came to the throne, and even served as a queen mother who listened to the government behind the curtain for a few years. No matter in terms of worldly sophistication or shrewd mind, few people can match her, whether it is From the perspective of benevolence or nurturing grace, Tantaiyu is not willing to disobey her for such a trivial matter.

What's more, it was Feng Zhao's marriage.

——Weichen thinks that the princess should be very simple when it comes to her wedding.

As far as the Empress Dowager Zhou is concerned, Feng Zhao's big wedding must be announced to the world, celebrated with the people, and celebrated with people for three days. They will be sent to the mansion of the vassal with gongs and drums all the way, so that they are bound to win her. Mind.The Empress Dowager Zhou has not many children, only one son and one daughter under her knees, one son is naturally the current emperor, and the other daughter is Feng Zhao. Although the family relationship among the royal family is weak, Feng Zhao has been with the Empress Zhou since childhood. Left and right, Zhou Hou's favored daughter is a well-known thing in the world.

Feng Zhao's big wedding, the occasional extravagance is always inevitable according to the usual practice.

However, if the famine in Xiangzhou is involved...

Lin Ziqing said casually, "If the Holy Majesty intends to carry out this decree, after this decree is issued, the Son of Heaven, Zhou Hou and Princess Fengzhao should set an example, and push the decree from top to bottom is truly excellent?"

Tantaiyu supported his forehead, paused for a moment, and suddenly said, "Isn't the large sum of money saved by the harem not enough to fill the deficit of the national treasury?... How much worse?"

There are so many high-sounding reasons, but after all, it is to fill the shortfall of the national treasury. Logically speaking, with such a large amount of money invested in the operation, even if the Xiangzhou matter is settled, there should be more surplus.

Lin Ziqing said, "My Majesty, the treasury's shortfall has been filled, but... I believe that it's time for the treasury to make up for it."

……

Walking out of the Qinghe Hall, Li Lu and Li Shilang also walked out of the Qinghe Hall together.His back is straight, his head is raised slightly, his eyebrows are drawn into his temples, his face is handsome, and he looks like a high-spirited young man.

When Li Shilang passed by Lin Ziqing, Lin Ziqing seemed to hear a very haughty voice in a slow voice, "I thought you were a very smooth person."

Lin Shenzheng of the Wenzhou incident was able to avoid going straight and bend the path of officials and businessmen to make it easier for himself. From the perspective of his actions, he is indeed a smooth-hearted person who does not stick to trivial matters and does not pay too much attention to the differences between officials and businessmen.However...in today's Palace of Qinghe, Lin Shenzheng gives the impression that he is a bit aggressive.Although there is still a gentle, calm and somewhat excessive temperament in the words and actions, however, there is a bit of aggressive posture under the words.

Li Shilang regards Lin Ziqing as the only opponent he has ever seen in his life. Li Lu has always been proud and arrogant. Although there is grievance in his heart, Lin Ziqing always presses on his head and bows down everywhere, but he doesn't bother to slander him behind his back. When necessary, he is not stingy to remind his opponents of other people's obscene things.

After Li Shilang finished speaking, he passed him out of the Hall of Qinghe under the leadership of a little father-in-law in the palace. Lin Ziqing pondered on his face, and stretched out his hand to slowly rub his forehead a few times. Or when helpless, it has become a very habitual action.

The matter of Marquis Yong'an coming to propose marriage happened not long after Rongdi handed in the marriage proposal, and the fief of Yingzhou feudal prince Yong'anhou was said to be located at the border between Rongdi and our dynasty. It is also used a lot. When others only think about one step, his mind often has a lot of connections back and forth, many possible situations, or speculations.

Lin Shenzheng began to feel that it was a coincidence that this matter happened more often. He has been holding on to the matter of Princess Fengzhao's marriage recently and refused to let go. In matters of the law, the words and deeds of the superiors are in line with the law, and the people below will be convinced and cautious in their words, and most of the policies that have been implemented since ancient times are just like this; on the other hand, Lin Zhengzheng also It is best to delay this marriage with this entanglement.

And the worst scenario under consideration now is that Rongdi King Yelumu and the feudal prince Yong'an Hou had colluded for a long time, planning to use Feng Zhao's incident as an excuse to send troops to attack our dynasty.It is not enough to worry about a Rong Di and our dynasty, but with the addition of a vassal king, under the internal and external troubles, this basket is very likely to be stretched bigger and bigger.

Yong'an Hou Tantaisu was originally the youngest son of the first emperor's uncle, and he was older than Tantaiyu in terms of seniority. When the Ming emperor succeeded to the throne in the early years, the first emperor wanted to pass on the throne to the eldest prince, but because of the elder prince's behavior Without inspection, after the prince was abolished, the second prince at that time, the Ming emperor, was established as the crown prince.As for the irregularities, the words in the "Historical Book" are mostly vague, and no explanation is given, so people of later generations can say it.Emperor Ming passed away due to illness shortly after his succession to the throne. After the first emperor came to the throne, he cut off a piece of fiefdom from the great uncle at that time and sent him to Yingzhou to be an idle emperor. The eldest prince, and the eldest prince's son is the current Yong'an Hou Tantaisu.

As an official with a foreign surname, it is inconvenient for Lin Shenzheng to ask more questions about royal matters, but he just speculated from a reasonable point of view at the right time that a royal clan who once had the opportunity to grasp the power over ten thousand people in his hands conspired to rebel It's just the greatest possibility, even if this possibility is almost an opportunity that can only be obtained under the situation of seeking skin from a tiger.In other words, they may have already grasped something very interesting and useful.

When Lin Ziqing was deep in thought, a very clear "beep" sound suddenly flashed in his ear.Then, he closed his eyes habitually, and the familiar ice-blue system panel soon appeared in front of him.

--drop!The system prompts, congratulations to the player for successfully starting the main mission [-] [Coverage] - [Blocking Marriage]

Main task [-] [Government] - [Blocking Marriage]

Task reminder: Please successfully prevent the marriage between the local feudal prince Yong'anhou and Princess Fengzhao.In addition, the system prompts that the local vassal prince Yong'an Hou is ambitious, his heart is not righteous, and he is suspected of treason.

……

The prompt "Please prepare early" was brushed several times on the mission prompt panel, and it was even marked in red letters particularly clearly.

Task reward: Constitution +1, open the system [Training morning panel, training points +5

[Training morning: Players can simulate reality in the training ground to sharpen their skills independently through specific scenarios. Training points required for an hour: 1.At present, you can open the dungeon [Intrigue], [Golden Ge Iron Horse] (to be opened...)

Lin Ziqing paused slightly, closed his eyes for a moment, and then opened them slowly. When he opened his eyes, he seemed to have fallen a considerable distance behind the little father-in-law leading the way, so the father-in-law had to turn back halfway, Carefully called a few times beside him, "Master Lin, Master Lin...you..."

——Is Master Lin all right?

Lin Shenzheng waved his hand, and after a while, he quietly twitched the corner of the lower lip and said, "It's all right."

—Leave the palace, go back to the mansion.

……

Lin Fu,

Lin Ziqing was sitting idle in the yard these days, when the boy from the front hall suddenly came around and told him that there was a guest in the mansion, Lin Ziqing straightened his clothes collar a little and rushed to the front hall, the host could never The guests are always waiting in the lobby.

As soon as Lin Ziqing stepped into the front hall, he heard a person with a crisp and soft waxy voice talking, "Why are the things in this hall so deserted? Nothing more than these?"

The things placed in front of the Linfu Hall were really deserted, except for the two paintings and a few skinny gold letters hanging on the wall, there was basically nothing left. Paintings and copybooks without signatures are even less worth a few taels of silver.

Even the places where some jade carvings such as jade corals are usually placed on the shelves are deserted. There are basically nothing in the front hall except a few mahogany chairs and tables, and it looks really empty and lonely. .

Then I heard the little maid who was dressed as a servant whispering, "Earlier, I didn't always hear that Lin Shenzheng has always been very close to merchants, why is there such a large area in the mansion..."

——One piece... looks very poor.

As a servant girl, the little girl obviously didn't understand the rules and was very restless, but the girl next to the little girl was dressed as a scholar like her master... The woman looked very dignified and stable sitting in the hall , sipping the tea brought by the boy in the mansion.

Lin Shenzheng said, "I have seen Princess Fengzhao."

That person dressed in men's clothing is indeed Princess Fengzhao of this dynasty.

Feng Zhao raised his eyes and glanced at the man in front of him, and then said slowly, "The things in your mansion are really deserted, and there is no lively atmosphere." After a moment, the smile on his face began to slowly She restrained herself and said, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for helping me deal with my marriage for a long time." After saying that, a self-deprecating expression appeared on his face.

Perhaps it was not intentional for Lin Ziqing to participate in politics. However, it is true that Lin Ziqing gained a few more days of leisure outside because of Lin Ziqing's dealings with this matter. There was a great panic, but then Tantaiyu suppressed them all. Tantaiyu believed that his imperial sister would not be a willful person who couldn't see the big picture.

And sure enough, at the end of this month, Feng Zhao appeared at Lin Canzheng's mansion, bringing with her the little maid who had become a little presumptuous after not seeing her outside for half a month.Feng Zhao was smiling, but in Lin Ziqing's opinion, Feng Zhao looked better when she was smiling than when she was crying.

Feng Zhao said with a smile, "You can go to the palace now and tell Brother Huang that I'm back."

Lin Ziqing picked up a chair beside Feng Zhao and sat down, tapped the table in front of him a few times with his fingers, a smile that seemed to be a bit relaxed and relaxed flashed across his usually indifferent face at this time, "For now, I have no such plans."

Lin Ziqing pondered for a moment, but suddenly said, "Princess, can you trust me?" After his expression relaxed, even in front of the emperor's beloved princess, the emperor's sister, and the incomparably noble princess, he no longer called himself a humble minister. self-effacing words.

Feng Zhao slowly sipped the tea in front of him, signaling that he was listening.

"If I tell the princess, I can help the princess escape marriage. Now the princess...does she like it?"

——I can help you... escape marriage.

Lin Ziqing was still sipping his tea leisurely, holding the tea bowl steadily, sipping it one mouthful at a time, occasionally lifting the lid of the tea bowl in front of him, looking very leisurely, with no expression on his face His expression seemed to be that the nonsense that shocked many people did not come from his mouth at all.

lies?

Lin Shenzheng has said a lot of truth, political talk, and the words of Confucius and Mencius, but he rarely said nonsense.He never talks nonsense.
