Making money, taking exams, and raising a family in rural imperial examinations

Lin Ze, the prince of blessing, really doesn't know.

There are at least a dozen vassal kings who have been enshrined since the founding of the country, and there are at least a dozen of them. Except for a few big ones, other small vassal kings, let alone ordinary people, may not remember all of them. Most people don’t know. It's normal.

But even if there is a toubob standing here today, Lin Ze is determined to take care of it. He has such a bad temper, and whoever messes with him will not get good results.

What's more, now that His Majesty has made it clear that he wants to get rid of these thorns in his eyes, he might as well do a good deed and send a meeting gift.

"I'm sorry, Xiaosheng is from a remote place. He only reads the books of sages and sages all day long, and he doesn't hear things outside the window. I really don't know what kind of blessing is king. Xiaosheng knows that shopping should be first-come, first-served, and money is competitive. Your son, you have money." , Xiaosheng is not short of bank notes, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is it possible that the Son of Heaven will come to have no law, buy and sell by force to embarrass the shopkeeper?"

Lin Ze raised his eyes, his expression was calm, fearless and arrogant, as if he was watching a simple and ordinary thing like eating.

This attitude not only makes the shopkeeper wonder what his identity is.

Prince Nafu also thought about the same thing. At the foot of the imperial city, this kind of person is generally either a big fool, or a bully with a particularly diabolical background. He just doesn't know which kind of young man he is in front of.

But no matter what kind, he can't go back to that. Finding faults is one thing, but blatantly ignoring the imperial power is another.

"Hey, where did the kid come from? Dare to talk to me like this, when did I buy and sell by force, and slander the son of the vassal prince, this is a serious crime, you are tired of life, kid? Let me tell you, you saw that I was Do you know who wants to kneel?"

Prince Fu continued to hold his hands together, looking arrogant.

But the attitude of deliberately avoiding the word "no king's law" means that the other party is not as stupid and arrogant as it appears on the surface. It remains to be discussed who the purpose of finding fault today is against.

Lin Ze chuckled, straightened his clothes, stepped forward,

"Where did Xiaosheng come from? It's not worth mentioning, but this son. If you don't read enough books when you go out, don't show your ink and prestige. Be careful to make jokes. If you know it, you will be ignorant. If you don't know, you will think you are right." Our Majesty is dissatisfied, the son must be careful when speaking."

Prince Fu narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting, it's just that Xiaosheng is not talented. I happened to have read a few law books. If Xiaosheng remembers correctly, according to Daji's regulations, the son of a vassal king should be of no rank or rank? The ministers of the court respect you as a vassal king, Oh no, now it's the feudal lord's face, the prince himself is no different from Bai Ding..."

"On the contrary, Xiaosheng has good luck. He has won the fame of Juren, and he is considered an official. Your son asked me to kneel down to you, Bai Ding. You are so contemptuous of the laws of the imperial power. Your son is really very majestic."

"Don't talk nonsense! Why doesn't this son know that there are such laws and regulations? The son is the successor of the vassal king, a hereditary prince, how can I be considered a white man!"

After the words fell, Prince Fu's face changed slightly, and he immediately slapped the table to refute.

No matter how stupid he was, he would not dare to admit that he flouted the laws of imperial power in front of everyone. That was not finding fault, it was courting death.

"Flip it yourself, No. 30, page [-], article [-]... Let me remind you again, there are no vassals in Daji now, only vassals, and the prince keeps saying that vassals are vassals, it seems that he is really dissatisfied with His Majesty's imperial decree."

Lin Ze sneered, and threw the law book he was carrying with him.

As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules, and the law is the foundation of a country's management. When policy is discussed, politics is not about how to manage the country. In the past, Shang Yang's reforms showed that the law is important to governing the country, so he has been studying the laws of Daji all the time.

What's more, he has no power, power or background. When he encounters a powerful person in the capital, he can only take advantage of the loopholes in the law. The relationship between the emperor's feet is complicated, and everyone's words and deeds outside will inadvertently become someone else's excuse, blatantly. There are actually not many bullies in the capital.

Although it is a bit nonsense that the prince's son is Bai Ding, it is not his nonsense. It is indeed in the law of Daji, and it was written in the law when the country was opened.

It's just that no one pays attention to these small details, that is, people who have worked hard to study remember that on weekdays, everyone is afraid of the status and rank of the vassal king, and of course they are also afraid of the rising status of the successor, so that the status of the vassal king's son is so bluffing.

Thinking about it, although the founding emperor canonized several vassals, he must have been reluctant in his heart. It was only because of the situation that he had no choice but to add such a rule to deal with each other.

"This, how is this possible..."

The Prince of Fu looked at the law book that Lin Ze threw over, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief when he saw the express regulations on it. He was obviously confused by such a law. White Ding.

If this wasn't a fake book, according to the regulations, he just made a qualified official kneel down for him just now, which is really contemptuous of the imperial power.

With a sinking heart, Prince Fu looked at Lin Ze again and looked a little more carefully, a little uncertain about his background and thoughts.

"Don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty is the ruler of the world. We are all subjects. Don't slander me. It's just a conflict of business. Why do you involve the laws of imperial power? Do you need to be so exaggerated? Come on, my son today Just being wronged to stay in the same room with you, I want to see how many bank notes you have, and fight with my son, hum!"

Prince Fu made a foolish look, and then took another stack of banknotes from his pocket and put them on the table.

Change the topic, divert attention, don't talk about those sensitive things with Lin Ze in public and get caught.

Lin Ze didn't care, and also took out a stack of bank notes from his arms and put them on the table again, with an extremely arrogant attitude.

"Then I'm sorry, I am a person who has few things, but more money..."

It's just different from the whole silver bill that he spread out on the table the first time, this time it's in a folded shape.

But this little detail was ignored.

Everyone in the room, as well as those who were attracted to watch the excitement, were all shocked by the thickness of the banknotes, and took a deep breath, because judging from the colors of the corners, they should all be worth one thousand taels and ten thousand taels.

How much does it cost for such a thick stack!

"This Prince Fu, right? If you don't have money, don't pretend to be outside. You must know that there are mountains as high as mountains. There are many talented people under the feet of the emperor. It is a coincidence that Xiaosheng is just a little taller than you. I will prepare for this cloth village." I bought it, please get out quickly, I think you have dirty my place, and... I can't stand you very much. "

Lin Ze's arrogance is such that even the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu don't pay attention to him.

In front of so many people, his face was directly taken away by an unknown person, and Prince Fu's face was extremely ugly.

The family has been reported, the name has been said, it is okay to avoid the accusation, but it is nothing to slap people in the face and trample on them like this.

The other party couldn't help it, and slapped the table angrily, "Your son is so arrogant!"

"Hahaha, that's right! I'm crazy and I'm crazy, what can you do to me? My family has a lot of money, and what you do is what you want, so you can control it?"

Lin Ze laughed suddenly, speaking bluntly and presumptuously, with a domineering attitude.

"Not as famous as me, not as rich as me, Li Zi knows a lot, why don't you go away?"

Prince Fu was so angry that he lost his composure, "Say one more damn thing!"

"Ten more sentences are like this. Do you want to make a move? The prestige of your Fu Wang domain under the emperor's feet is really great. Bai Ding is an official, do you want to rebel?!"

Lin Ze raised his voice, and pulled out the banner of imperial power again, and the sound spread out, attracting another wave of people to come in to watch the fun in the cloth village.

With a slap in the face, the opponent's face instantly turned a liver color.

Seeing this, Lin Ze's smile became more rampant and arrogant. He directly picked up the bank note that was put on the table just now, then tore it into pieces with all his strength, and threw it in the direction of Zhang Yu, forming a beautiful snowflake scene, and laughed heartily.

"I'd like to throw a thousand pieces of gold just to give my husband a smile. Do you dare? Dare? Hahaha..."

The arrogant laughter is really extremely arrogant, extremely rampant, and extremely annoying.

People have provoked to this extent, if they endure it any longer, they will be ridiculed and coaxed.

Being so provoked, Prince Fu lost his composure, and was so angry that he also grabbed the bank note and tore it into pieces and threw it into the air.

A stack of bank notes ranging from tens of thousands to thousands, was torn into pieces just like that, and the crowd couldn't help hissing.

Prince Fu had no time to care about the expressions of the people around him, so he also tore up the bank note, pointed at Lin Ze and said angrily,

"You have the guts to report your name!"

Only fools report their names.

Lin Ze looked at the other person like a fool, chuckled, and kicked the other person's knee with his foot.

"Ah", Prince Fu couldn't react in time, and he yelled in pain, his legs and feet were sore and he knelt on the ground on one knee. Lin Ze took the opportunity to use a capture technique, and restrained him with his backhand, and took a rope measuring the size of cloth on the table, He tied the opponent's hands tightly.

"Smelly Confucian scholar, what are you doing!"

When Prince Fu recovered from the pain in his knees, he found that he was tied up, and he was so confused that the other party tied him up before he could do anything.

"What to do? Tore up the bank notes privately, despised the law, despised the emperor, and committed treason; according to the law, he should be beheaded! The shopkeeper, if you don't call the officials to arrest him, the court will decide."

Lin Ze sneered, and then told the shopkeeper.

After finishing speaking, not only Prince Fu's face became slightly dumbfounded, but also the people around him were also dumbfounded.

But it's not right, this guy also tore it up just now!

King Fu's son roared, "Nonsense! When did the law come into existence again? It's nothing to do with the law if I tear up my own money. You also tore it up just now!"

"Whether it is true or not, someone from the government will know for sure. As for I did tear things up, but I'm sorry, I tore up blank paper... I don't have a little ink in my chest, but I dare to be majestic. Your Excellency is so angry, my family knows ?”

Hearing this, everyone looked at the pile of debris in front of Zhang Yu.

Stretching his neck to identify it carefully, it really is just a pile of paper with the color of the corners dyed!

And what Prince Fu tore up is the real banknote.

"You, you, you are cheating..."

Prince Fu's legs went limp, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, his face pale.

"It's just a trick, how about you? But the vassals came to court and dared to insult the people of the capital. The world is so rampant. Are you provoking the emperor's prestige? Or provoking the laws and regulations of the country!"

Lin Ze put away his smile, his eyes were cold and stern, and he looked around at the people in the feudal land who heard the sound from the crowd.

Waving his sleeves, he called the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, do you have pens and inks in the store?"

"There are some..."

The shopkeeper didn't know what he wanted the pen and ink for, but he nodded timidly, and quickly handed over the pen and ink on the cabinet, all of which were ready-made brushes and black ink.

Lin Ze took it, then walked to the gate of the cloth house, dipped his brush in ink, and waved his hand to the wall.

The writing is majestic, flamboyant and phoenix-dancing, laughing loudly, and writes the statement:

...

When the wind blows and the clouds fly, Vega will return to his hometown!

Surrounded by mountains, all the tigers are watching, so what?How dare the curved bow compete with the sky test?

The mountains and rivers are so delicate, the hero bows down, and the thousands of rocks and valleys are tireless. You can only know the source when you look at it from a distance!

Will pull the eagle bow like a full moon, look northwest, and shoot Sirius!Still dare to laugh?

...

Accompanied by a lifetime of "bang".

The word falls, the ink breaks, and the pen falls.

"However, Xiaoxiao dares to compete with the sun and the moon. It's really funny, hahaha... Shopkeeper, please send this guy who despises the law to the government to destroy the bank notes privately. Don't!"

Lin Ze threw a pen and an ingot of silver, took Zhang Yu and laughed and left, disappearing from the crowd in a blink of an eye.

Prince Fu's face turned pale.

The people of the domain in the crowd stared at the crazy words full of irony and ridicule on the wall, and their faces were cloudy.

******************

Meeting a prince named Fu spoiled the mood of shopping.

Lin Ze and his wife came out of the cloth village, and they didn't want to go shopping any more. The streets were full of arrogant feudal people, which made them uncomfortable.

In addition, they went to a cloth shop to pick out some clothes and cloth, and the two rushed back to the Han Mansion.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I heard my son's soft voice,

"Brother Rong, ride a horse, I want to ride at every turn..."

The chubby Lin Dongdong was having a great time with Zhang Shidan and his three senior brothers in the yard.

Zhang Shidan crawled on the ground like a horse, and sat on his back. Li Sheng and Guo Zian escorted him on both sides with fruit snacks.

The little baby looks like a little emperor and a little bully, but three of them are willing to be enslaved, which makes people laugh and cry.

But the warm scene also made Lin Ze, who was angry outside, feel much better.

Go over and pick up your naughty son, touch their noses,

"Smelly is bullying senior brother again, isn't it? Ask senior brother to ride a horse for you every day, why don't you go back and dad will spank your ass..."

It's good for my son to be lively and mischievous, but he still has to learn a lesson, otherwise he will really be lawless in the future.

As a result, his apprentice didn't cooperate, so Zhang Shidan hurriedly said, "Teacher, don't impress Dongdong. I asked him to ride. I like to play with Dongdong. Now that Dongdong has practiced well, I won't be afraid when I learn to ride a horse in the future."

After finishing speaking, he quickly stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hand and hugged (snatched) Lin Dongdong away.

An expression of fearing that Lin Zezhen would spank the little baby's butt, preventing a flood from a beast.

Lin Dongdong was carried away happily, and hugged Zhang Shidan's neck with a giggle, "Qiqi, brother Rong, Mama, baby Huanhuan, Bo~"

In the end, he sent a resounding kiss to his 'Brother Rong'.

Zhang Shidan, whose face was covered with saliva, was still full of joy, and kissed Lin Dongdong's chubby face fiercely, "Dongdong is so good!"

The half-year-old and one child just 'show affection' in front of Lin Ze.

Lin Ze, "..."

The mood that had just improved was bad again.

Zhang Yu couldn't help laughing, and quickly stretched out his hand to hug his son back, "Okay, you three, go and help with the things, the teacher will buy you new clothes, go back to the room and try the size."

Clearly ordering and actually saving the situation, Zhang Shidan would not be cleaned up by a jealous father, and he doted on the three children very much.

Lin Ze had no choice but to angrily pinch his son who dared to sacrifice his beauty to enslave him since he was a child, and then told the housekeeper of the Han family,

"Han Bo, can you inform the teacher again? I have something to tell him, it's best to come back tonight..."

Today's incident is estimated to cause a mess above, and he has to tell the teacher.

"Old slave, go ask."

The old housekeeper nodded respectfully.

…………

It was not as good as Lin Ze expected.

What happened in the cloth village today, and the ironic wild words he left on the wall of the cloth village did not cause a commotion very quickly, but immediately caused a commotion.

The imperial city was originally a place with intricate relationships, and the slightest disturbance would be reported back to the family by the eyes and ears of various families.

When the people in the domain heard the news, they slapped the table angrily, their faces were ugly and gloomy like water, while the courtiers laughed, and they were in a good mood, and they said 'good, good'.

This time, because His Majesty abolished the vassal system, the existing "vassal king" should be changed to a "vassal prince", which really aroused the dissatisfaction of the vassal kings everywhere.

His Majesty's move is clearly intended to cut down the vassal. Now that the king is changed to a lord, in the future he will take back the rights of the land, city and private soldiers, and erode it step by step. It won't be long before the power of the vassal king will disappear completely.

So this time, taking advantage of the opportunity to pay tribute, the vassal kings from all over the place did not come in person, but appointed their sons, and the vassals came to the capital to make all kinds of arrogance and trouble, just to express their dissatisfaction and resistance to the 'vassals'.

Use this to test His Majesty's limit, and then take action, so as to preserve the power of their vassal king.

During this period of time, the people in the feudal land created a lot of smog in Beijing, not only provoking the majesty of the emperor, but also touched the interests of some powerful people, which made everyone hate it very much.

It's just that because of His Majesty's anger earlier, everyone was still trembling. If His Majesty didn't move, everyone could only endure it.

Now Lin Ze directly confronted the other party in the downtown area, and directly cheated the son of Fu Wang, and made a handle of "the people of the feudal land despise the laws of imperial power", and left a madman on the wall mocking the feudal land's young heart. Words, how can everyone be unhappy?

"Okay, okay, I don't know which family this Confucian scholar belongs to. He is resourceful! Courageous! Hahaha..."

The ministers looked at the copy of the poem left by Lin Ze in their hands, and smiled happily.

In fact, Lin Ze's poem is not qualified as a whole. It can be said that it is not a poem. It is just a quotation and his own casual words, but this is not important.

It is important to express the meaning, but it is really interesting.

The previous two sentences "Great Wind Blows..." are quotes from the famous poem "Great Wind Song" by Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty. At the beginning of Liu Bang's establishment of the Han Dynasty, some of his troops and subordinates waited for an opportunity to rebel, making Emperor Han "unify the world" Dreams are tested and difficult.

However, the Emperor Han finally quelled the chaos, and a group of Xiao Xiaoxiao finally became "the winner and the loser" and died extremely useless. When the Emperor Han returned to the court, he wrote this magnificent imperial poem with only three lines.

How is this situation similar to the mental picture of the current princes from all over the world coveting the royal dynasty?

Lin Ze first quoted the first two lines of this poem, expressing the warning meaning that the current dynasty will be the king after all the heroes compete for the throne.

And the following words, every sentence and every word are mocking the feudal land's fireflies competing with the sun and the moon's mind, how can the arrows shot by the bow be higher than the sky?

The last sentence, "Will hold the eagle bow like a full moon, look northwest, and shoot Sirius! Do you still dare to laugh?" It tells the domain directly and clearly: If you dare to disrespect the dynasty, the dynasty will draw the bow like a full moon, aim at the northwest, and shoot down the northwest The place where the vassal kings gather is regarded as the sacred Sirius above the head!

Sarcasm and ridicule are the meaning of the whole poem, which is straightforward and arrogant but extremely domineering.

"Go and find out who this Confucian scholar is a student of..."

After laughing, everyone hurriedly ordered someone to investigate Lin Ze's details.

The imperial court was worried that there would be no place to attack these vassal powers, Lin Ze sent out the son of Prince Fu who "destroyed the bank notes privately to provoke the king's prestige", which gave His Majesty a good reason to attack.

With such a talent, of course we have to see which master he is from, and he will definitely occupy a place in the court in the future.

In the imperial study.

The emperor also received news from both the Han family and Prince Fu's son.

"This kid, you gave me such a big gift without saying a word, and you're not afraid of getting yourself into trouble..."

Sheng Yongxuan listened to the report with relief and worry on his face.

He was indeed right about Lin Ze, that child was a good young man who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic to the country, but he was too courageous, without any background at all, and dared to fight head-on against the son of the vassal prince just by relying on his writing skills.

With Lin Ze's actions today, those vassal kings have been angered. When his background is found out, those people will definitely attack him to vent their anger.

This kid is usually cautious, why is he so reckless this time?

Sheng Yongxuan was a little worried. If he loved Lin Ze's talent before, now he really has the kind of care and love that a teacher has for his disciple's half son.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Lin has always been cautious and very thoughtful, and to Mr. Lin, he cares about his husband and children very much. He shouldn't be such a reckless person who takes his husband on adventures regardless of his own safety. The old servant thought, Lin I'm afraid the young master has plans that we can't guess..."

As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos, the authorities are confused, Sheng Yongxuan is worried, the old eunuch, as a bystander, can see a lot clearly, and he opened his mouth to appease the master.

Sheng Yongxuan sighed, "I also guessed one or two, but this kid is a bit too courageous, what if something happens?"

"Isn't your Majesty still here? Mr. Lin has His Majesty's heart and His Majesty's blessing to protect him. Who can commit crimes at a young age? There are people guarding the mansion, so there will be no problems."

The old eunuch smiled and flattered him.

"Don't talk about blessings. If I were really blessed, I wouldn't be alone now, surrounded by wolves and tigers, and would not be able to live in peace when I was old..." The emperor sighed.

"Come on, let me pass on my will. The son of King Fu despises and provokes the majesty of the emperor. After thinking that he is a hero, he will be temporarily locked up in the sky prison and ordered to come to Beijing to discuss his crimes. They were not allowed to go out before, and the rest of the feudal vassals are also restricted to Beijing to discipline their sons before the tribute banquet, and those who do not come will be punished against the imperial decree!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The old eunuch took over.

"However, don't worry, Your Majesty, the young master has always been considerate in his work. We still have to deal with the government affairs. When we see the young master at night, the young master will surprise his majesty again. By the way, according to the steward of the mansion, the young master seems to have tossed about some fresh food. Let Your Majesty go and taste it."

"This kid likes to toss about these things all day long. A good scholar looks like a merchant cook..."

Hearing this, the emperor smiled and shook his head, but the speed of handling government affairs was a bit faster.

Seeing this, the old eunuch also smiled, and stepped back voluntarily.

That night.

Several veteran cabinet ministers received the emperor's imperial edict on the disposition of the people in the vassal land, and then subdued the news that they quietly left the palace to go to the Han Mansion. They looked at each other and believed in the previous guess even more firmly in their hearts.

Sure enough, it was 'Your Highness', otherwise how could Your Majesty, who has been sitting still without any movement, be unable to sit still now?It must be because of the eagerness to put the sons of the vassal princes under house arrest all of a sudden!

*******************

On Lin Ze's side, when he heard the old housekeeper say that his teacher would be back at night, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to prepare.

Zhang Yu gave the child to the three boys to play with, and also helped.

Although there are other helpers in the kitchen, some of the dishes made by Lin Ze are relatively new and require different materials and preparations. If he is not familiar with people, he will not be able to do it well, and it will definitely make a mess by then.

Most of the ingredients in the kitchen are available. Lin Ze didn’t ask the housekeeper to prepare other ingredients. He just cooked with the ready-made ingredients. Anyway, the dishes he knows are almost the same for the teacher. Cooking is to give the teacher a taste of "hometown".

For dessert, Lin Ze added a new item, ice cream!

The weather is still hot at this time, and it is the best time to eat iced drinks to relieve the heat. It is much easier to make ice cream after making cream.

Although it is definitely not as delicate and delicate as modern ice cream, it is still delicious to eat in this ancient environment.

However, due to the difficulty of making and storing these things, he did not put these things in desserts for sale, so he ate them fresh at home. Old snacks are delicious.

And 'Teacher Han' was not there, so I didn't enjoy it at the time, and now I just made it to present a treasure to the teacher, so as not to tell the things I caused today, and get a few more heads...

Well, the last point is Lin Ze's goal, to please and avoid punishment is the main thing, and filial piety is the icing on the cake!

Lin Ze and his wife were busy in the kitchen for half an afternoon, cooking a table of good dishes.

After dark, 'Teacher Han' finally came back. After several months of absence, his hair turned gray again.

Seeing that Lin Ze felt so pitiful, he couldn't help saying,

"Old man, tell me you are still busy when you are old, and you can earn enough money to get it. Look at your hair and you have three white hairs. Be careful that Mr. Han thinks you are old, and you will suffer..."

"Stinky boy, can't you say something nice every time you see me!"

Sheng Yongxuan, who came to eat happily, was thrown a pot of cold water on his head by his apprentice's poisonous tongue, and stared angrily.

When they meet, they say that they are getting old, can they still have a good chat.

Lin Ze grinned, and continued recklessly,

"Loyal words are harsh to the ear and good for deeds. Teacher, are we still saying those polite words? I am also concerned about you. Although men don't pay attention to their appearance, they should also take care of it properly. When you turn around, find a doctor and order some sesame walnut pills, you Old is still a man, don't really act like an old man, it would be a shame to go out..."

"Shame on face!"

Sheng Yongxuan couldn't hold back his self-cultivation, and uttered a foul language.

The old eunuch at the back also twitched his lips in admiration, secretly looking forward to the day when Lin Ze knew the identity of his master...

But ridicule is ridicule.

After meeting and pointing at the newly added white-haired tongue on the old guy's head three times, Lin Ze welcomed him into the house.

Let Zhang Yu, the three little apprentices, and the chubby Lin Dongdong accompany him. He turned around and went into the kitchen immediately, and made a bowl of sesame and walnut soup for the old guy. He has black hair and brain.

Putting the sweet sesame and walnut soup in front of him, Sheng Yongxuan smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Obviously it is very beneficial to the concern from the disciples.

"Grandfather, you try this, the teacher's specialty, we can only eat it every time Shi Lang wants to eat..."

"Master, eat this quickly, this dish is delicious..."

"Grandpa, there will be ice cream after dinner, the teacher is going to make it for you..."

The three of Li Sheng also actively and enthusiastically offered hospitality to the teacher's grandfather, and tried to save face for their teacher.

There is no way, the teacher's mouth is too poisonous, so they need these sweet-talking little helpers!

"Okay, let's eat together."

Plain and ordinary warmth is always the happiest, and it is what people like Sheng Yongxuan lack the most. Looking at the children and disciples in front of him, all troubles disappear temporarily, and he is in a good mood, enjoying the rare warm moments.

Lin Ze cooked a large table of dishes, but there were too many dishes, and the portion of each dish was not large, enough for everyone to eat without filling their stomachs.

Eat a full stomach, take a short rest, and then eat a small portion of cold dessert, not to mention how comfortable it is in summer.

Just don't be greedy, otherwise the old and the young will definitely have diarrhea when they wake up tomorrow morning.

After eating, talking about the past, and sending the children away, Lin Zecai and Sheng Yongxuan went to the study to talk about what happened today.

Since he dared to provoke him, Lin Ze naturally thought about how to deal with it. He is not really such an impulsive person, so he just let his family leave him alone.

But I'm afraid I need the teacher's help in this matter.

"You're in a hurry now. What were you thinking about earlier? You dare to provoke the people in the feudal land without any backing. Don't you think that the people in the feudal land have been arrogant in the capital for so many days, and the dignitaries in the court have been offended. Why didn't the minister stand up for himself? It's up to you to show off your abilities and be the first bird."

Sheng Yongxuan poked Lin Ze's head hard twice, and taught him a serious lesson.

This kid taught those little apprentices all day long, but in the end he was not so reckless and bold in doing things, which is really worrying.

"Teacher, listen to what I have to say, your apprentice, am I so stupid to be a gunman for others..."

Lin Ze was very helpless, he was so old, and he was poked in the head by the teacher, it was too embarrassing.

"Then tell me, what are you going to do after you have caused such a big incident? Let me tell you, your move will indeed be appreciated by His Majesty, but it is also possible that you will become someone else's soul before you are appreciated." .”

"So I'm just asking Teacher for your help now."

"What help?"

"See Your Majesty."

"...Are you thinking too highly of me, your teacher?"

Sheng Yongxuan's eyelids twitched, and he stared deeply at Lin Ze, speaking with earnestness.

Lin Ze smiled, put his hand on the other's shoulder, with a good expression on his brother's face,

"Come on old guy, don't pretend, I can't see you as an old man? With your knowledge and nagging all day long asking me to serve the court, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, if you don't have any details, I will tell you surname!"

"Tell me, are you His Majesty's left hand or right hand? Come on, tell me, I promise you won't talk too much, and I will help you give your master a chance to make meritorious service, so that you can return to your hometown early to retire, and have a good time with Mr. Han." Live on, teacher, am I always very filial to you..."

A certain 'old man' put on a blank face, unmoved, "..."

Lin Ze made persistent efforts to implement the spirit of never giving up to the end,

"Say it, tell me teacher, if you don't tell me, I'll call you daddy? Turn around and spread the word that you abandoned my mother, so you won't be able to protect you~ Maybe Mr. Han will believe it~ Then take your good son Go with someone else's surname~"

"...Tell me first, what is your hole card?"

Sheng Yongxuan looked at the shameless and shameless expression of the apprentice in front of him, with bulging veins on his forehead, and had the urge to hit someone.

Lin Ze immediately raised the teapot to refill tea actively,

"I'm sorry, teacher, but I can't tell you yet. The less people know about my hole card, the better, because it's a bit dangerous, and it may bring you a disaster. Teacher, I hope you live a long life, teach me more Disciple has some knowledge..."

"Yuntang, what exactly do you want to do? Negotiate a deal with His Majesty, do you know that you are playing with fire?"

Sheng Yongxuan stared deeply at Lin Ze.

Lin Ze also put away the joke, looked serious, and nodded seriously,

"Teacher, I know. In fact, I have been very scared and hesitated for a long time. You know, I still have Ah Yu and Dongdong... But teacher, do you still remember that you said that Your Majesty has the benevolence of Nachuan, and my Is your Majesty willing to help me realize many ideas?"

"Actually, I didn't believe it at the time. The king's heart is unpredictable, but this time His Majesty's move to cut down the feudal clan, I believe what you said, Teacher. Your Majesty still has ambitions at this age. Give it a go, maybe I can give it a try too. , maybe one day, I can see the world I dreamed of appearing."

"Are you really that confident?"

Sheng Yongxuan took a deep breath, he had heard some descriptions about the world in "dream" by Lin Ze.

To be honest, he also yearns for it very much, but it is really too difficult. With Daji's current situation, it may be difficult for him to work hard all his life to achieve it.

"Teacher, if I say that my hole card is enough to make Daji and the world come to court...do you believe it?"

Lin Ze tilted his head and smiled, his eyes were undeniably firm.

Sheng Yongxuan's fingers trembled slightly,

"Do you really trust His Majesty?"

"I trust the teacher."

Words blurted out without any hesitation.

The chest cavity seemed to be hit by hot magma, Sheng Yongxuan felt his chest was as hot as an autumn tiger, and couldn't help laughing, the corners of his eyes were moist,

"There is no rush for this matter. The teacher will take care of the affairs of the people in the feudal land. You can take the exam at ease."
