[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle
Chapter 16
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there is three quarters of Yin time.
Lin Ruhai and Lin got up early in the morning to wash up, and then took a carriage to the palace.
On the carriage, Lin Ruhai was resting with his eyes closed.
He got up too early, and he was also getting older, and he was trying his best to seize the opportunity to recharge his batteries, so as not to lose his dignity in front of the palace.
Lin Qing was young, not only did he not feel sleepy when he got up early, but he was also full of energy.
It's just that the excitement was a little too much, and it gave birth to a little nervousness.
Lifting the sedan chair curtain, seeing the foggy and pitch-black outside, Lin Qing's mood became inexplicably heavy, and she was worried about her future and destiny for the first time.
Since coming here, it was the first time I was so frightened.
Lin Ruhai felt the cold wind blowing in after Lin Qing lifted the curtain, so he slowly opened his eyes.
"Qing'er, what are you doing?"
Lin Qing turned her head, seeing Lin Ruhai woke up, she hurriedly put down the curtain, "Nothing. Brother, but did I disturb you just now?"
"It didn't bother me."
At the end, after looking at Lin Qing for a while, he frowned and said, "However, I think you seem very nervous."
Hearing this, Lin Qing smiled embarrassedly.
He was indeed nervous, especially the closer he was to the palace, the more flustered he became.
Back then, when he first saw Lin Ruhai, he was overwhelmed by his powerful aura and intimidating official authority.Now that he is about to meet a big boss who is bigger than Lin Ruhai, to be honest, he is really a little scared.
"Don't be nervous, the Holy Majesty has always been generous and caring, just treat him as an older elder and respect him."
Lin Qing nodded when he heard the words, and suddenly said: "What will the Holy Majesty ask me then?"
In terms of knowledge, he is not worried. After all, he has a system, and he can read famous works easily. Although it is a bit shameless, it is very timing and very means.
"I don't know about this either. But you have to be more open-minded. When you meet someone who doesn't understand, you can say it freely. Don't be afraid of shame. The emperor's majesty is not something ordinary people can bear."
"I can save it."
In the final analysis, just don’t pretend to understand!
He may not be able to do anything else, but this thick-skinned, dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, so he thinks he is quite capable of fighting.
At dawn, the carriage finally arrived at the gate of the palace.
After Lin Ruhai got off the car, he exchanged greetings with the eunuch who led the way, said a few flattering words, and then gave him a big red envelope, and then the group of people walked slowly into the palace.
When Lin Qing and the others arrived at the location, they were told that the Holy Majesty would not come until a quarter of an hour later.
There was no other way, Lin Qing and Lin Ruhai had no choice but to stand obediently in the hall and wait.
It is impossible to sit, but the heating in the hall is sufficient, and incense is lit on the table, which smells quite refreshing.
Sure enough, all the good things are in the palace.
Two quarters of an hour later, the emperor finally arrived on time.
"Your Majesty, Lin Hai, and my younger brother Lin Qing, kowtow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
"Get up." A clear and majestic male voice came from above.
"Thank you Lord Ron!"
Lin Ruhai and Lin Qing got up from the ground, then stood up straight, then lowered their heads slightly so as not to look directly at Tianyan.
"Lin Qing's family, is this the brother you recognize?"
Seeing that she was asked, Lin Qing hurried out of the queue, knelt down, and kowtowed, "Grassman Lin Qing, kowtow to Your Majesty! Your Majesty Wanan!"
He has no official position yet, so he can't call himself a "minister" like Lin Ruhai, he can only be called a "grassman".
"Head up."
Hearing this, Lin Qing quickly knelt up straight, raised her head, and lowered her eyes to avoid eye contact with the emperor.
Before coming, Lin Ruhai had repeatedly told him not to look directly at the Holy Majesty.
Half the salary, the emperor didn't speak.
Lin Qing kept up the difficult movements all the time.
It was nothing at first, but after a long time, he felt a little powerless.
Especially his back is so sore, his legs are so numb, and even his eyes are constantly cramping.
Fortunately, the emperor was very merciful, and said just before Lin Qing was about to make a fool of herself, "Get up."
Lin Qing was finally able to stand up. Although her legs were still shaking, she finally changed to a habitual and light posture.
But having said that, this emperor is really weird, as a man, why does he have to stare at Lin Qing for so long?
I haven't heard that there is a habit of breaking sleeves in today's saints.
Strange, strange, strange things happen every year, especially this year!
"Sure enough, Fengshen is handsome." The emperor nodded in praise, and then turned to Lin Ruhai, "It's very demeanor like you were back then."
Seeing this, Lin Ruhai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty praises me, the minister and the brother-in-law are just the appearance of middle-class people."
However, the emperor just waved his hands and said nonchalantly, "Hey, the Qing family is modest. If I say you have it, you have it."
When Lin Ruhai heard the emperor say this, he had no choice but to say "yes" again and again.
Immediately afterwards, the emperor asked Lin Qing again: "Is there a word?"
"Return to the words of the sage, and the word 'Ruqing' is written by the minister."
"Ruqing? But it's from the allusion of 'Mu Ruqingfeng'?"
"Mu Ru Qingfeng"?
What is "Mu Ru Qingfeng"?
Lin Qing hurriedly looked it up in the system in her mind, only to find out that these four characters come from "The Book of Songs·Daya·Zhumin".
This poem mainly praises the virtues of the famous official "Zhong Shanfu" of the Zhou Dynasty and the achievements of assisting King Xuan.
Lin Qing felt that the meaning of this allusion was too deep and too big, and he was afraid that it would not hold up.
Although he didn't know why the emperor mentioned this allusion, just to be on the safe side, he still didn't recognize it.
So he replied: "No. It's Caomin's father who hoped that Caomin would behave cleanly, so he chose the word 'Qing' for Caomin."
After hearing this, the emperor said clearly: "Is this the case? But it's a good meaning, your father has a heart."
Lin Qing hurriedly lowered her head and said "yes" when she heard the words.
"Can you have fame?"
"Returning to the Holy Lord, Cao Min was elected in the autumn last year."
"Juren? How old are you now?"
"I just passed my 17th birthday last month."
"17 years old? Not bad." The emperor listened, with a look of approval in his eyes, "It's really a fearsome young man. I heard from your elder brother that you will study in the Imperial College after the next year. The Imperial College is the highest in our Nanke Kingdom. There are countless famous teachers in the school, and the students are among the dragons and phoenixes. You, you must seize this opportunity, and I hope to see you next time in the palace exam."
After hearing this, Lin Qing quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Caomin thank you for your love, Caomin will definitely fulfill his mission!"
The emperor saw that Lin Qing performed well, he was calm and generous, and when he was happy, he rewarded Lin Qing with three "cool inkstones".
This "cool inkstone" can be met but not sought after, even the emperor himself can only get five yuan a year, and the sum of these three cool inkstones is the size of an adult's palm.
It feels warm and cool to the touch, and it is very comfortable to hold and play in the summer, especially it also exudes a refreshing fragrance.
Real things are rare but expensive.
It is said that this cool inkstone can also be used as medicine to detoxify, but it is not clear what kind of medicine is used and what kind of poison is detoxified.
Lin Qing didn't know the goods, didn't understand the preciousness of the cool inkstone, and had never even heard of this kind of inkstone at all. He only thought that the emperor could personally reward it must be a good thing.
So after returning home, he took out one piece and gave it to Daiyu, and gave the other piece to Lin Ruhai, and kept one piece for himself.
He didn't know the value of this cool inkstone, but Daiyu knew it. At first, she refused to take it, saying it was too expensive.
Seeing Daiyu's refusal that it was too expensive, Lin Qing hurriedly looked up the information about the Liangyan inkstone in the system, and found that it was indeed quite expensive.
But he still persuaded Daiyu to accept it, saying that it was because of his uncle's kindness that he didn't prepare any decent gift for her at the beginning, but now he took this cool inkstone as a gift.
Whether it should be said or not, Lin Qing's gift this time can be regarded as sent to Daiyu's heart.
She loves to study books and essays, and has always valued the four treasures of the study. Now that she has this inkstone that can be called the "treasure of the town house", she is really happy in her heart.
God knows how hard it was for her to suppress the reluctance in her heart to persuade herself to return the inkstone to Lin Qing. Now that she heard what Lin Qing said, she just accepted it happily.
Although Daiyu has this cool inkstone, she is not willing to use it, she just holds it in her hand and plays with it on weekdays.
While playing with it, I couldn't help being a little proud. If Sister Bao and the others knew that they had a cool inkstone, how would they be envious of me.
Not long after the first day of the new year, Lin Ruhai began to go to court.
Because the Imperial College hadn't started yet, Lin Qing went to Hele Lou for a sit-down if he had nothing to do.
Lin Ruhai would inspect Lin Qing's homework occasionally, but she was satisfied every time, so she didn't stick to him very much, and turned a blind eye to his temporary "playing around" behavior.
Anyway, Guozijian's homework is very heavy, so let him play for a while.
However, some people are destined not to let Lin Qing live too leisurely.
On an unremarkable evening, after dinner, Lin Qing was copying calligraphy in her yard.
Although learning can rely on the system, you still have to write the words yourself.
Thanks to the various extra-curricular interest classes in the past, he studied calligraphy for a while in modern times.
He is used to being deserted, and he loves the unique tranquility and stability when copying calligraphy, as if he is the only one left in the whole world.
Later, when he came here, it was quite boring in Fangzhou. Although the teahouse was fun, he couldn’t stay there 24 hours a day, so in his free time, he also bought some copybooks and came back to copy them, as a way to pass the time.
Over time, it became a hobby of his.
He was immersed in it, but outsiders came to report that the master was looking for him.
Alas, since entering Beijing, there have been many troubles.
"Big Brother." Seeing the door approaching, Lin Qing went in directly.
"Here you come? Sit down." Lin Ruhai pointed to the seat closest to him.
Lin Qing walked over and sat down.
"It's like this. I met Prince Nan'an in the court today."
Lord Nan'an?
Could it be the King of Nan'an who is four kings and eight kilometers away?
"But……"
Lin Qing compared the characters "three" and "eight" with her fingers.
Lin Ruhai nodded.
"He came to me today and said he wanted to tell you about a marriage."
"Marriage? Me?" Lin Qing pointed to himself and said in disbelief.
"I have never met this Prince of Nan'an, why did he personally introduce the marriage to me, an unknown junior?"
Lin Ruhai smiled inexplicably when he heard the words, "Although he doesn't know you, the person who entrusted him to be a matchmaker does know you!"
"Ah? Brother, I don't understand." Lin Qing felt puzzled.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, do you know which lady he is going to introduce to you?"
Lin Qing shook her head, "I don't know."
Lin Ruhai stroked his long beard and said with a smile, "It's the young lady of the Zhen family in Jiangnan."
The author says:
"Liangyan" was made by me indiscriminately, and the so-called "medicine for detoxification" was also written casually by me.Don't take it seriously! ! !
Lin Ruhai and Lin got up early in the morning to wash up, and then took a carriage to the palace.
On the carriage, Lin Ruhai was resting with his eyes closed.
He got up too early, and he was also getting older, and he was trying his best to seize the opportunity to recharge his batteries, so as not to lose his dignity in front of the palace.

"It didn't bother me."
