'Lin Daiyu' of the Red Chamber
Chapter 42
"Returning to the emperor, time is not forgiving, and the minister is indeed getting old." Lin Ruhai replied respectfully.
Seeing that Lin Ruhai's temperament was still the same as before, the emperor laughed loudly, and Dai Quan also laughed when he saw this.The emperor glanced at him and waved at him.Dai Quan stopped laughing in embarrassment, bowed his body and pushed all the way to the door before leaving.
After sending Dai Quan away, the emperor snorted coldly, looked at Shui Rong, and frowned.
Water soluble material thinks that the emperor seems to be in a bad mood today, and he has finished reporting his affairs, so he hurriedly bid farewell.
After dismissing the two irrelevant people, the emperor smiled and ordered someone to sit for Lin Ruhai and Gu Yitai.
"I heard that the two ministers want to get married?"
When Gu Yitai and Lin Ruhai heard the emperor asked about this, they quickly stood up and replied respectfully.
Gu Yitai took out the memorial at this time and presented it to the emperor.The emperor looked down, while Gu Yitai and Lin Ruhai waited quietly, there was no superfluous expression on their faces, and they couldn't help but feel uneasy.In fact, such things as getting married are not unusual, what is unusual is how the emperor, who manages everything every day, would care about this.
Lin Ruhai was worried that the emperor had taken a fancy to Gu Ling a long time ago, and wanted to propose marriage to some royal family or princess. If this was the case, then their marriage would definitely be blown.
Gu Yitai, on the other hand, was worried that the emperor would be dissatisfied with his marriage move, although he had spent time and time again on this marriage and tried to keep a low profile.But the emperor still paid attention to it, which showed that the emperor had long listed their Gu family as a thorn in his side.Guaranteed that Mr. Lin, who is so innocent and has a weak background, he also dislikes it.
The emperor just doesn't like anyone, he thinks who is not pleasing to the eye, and there is no way to reason, right?
Gu Yitai broke out in a cold sweat, he was worried that his calculation was wrong. ♀Arcane Seat He did not keep the century-old foundation of the Gu family, he was sorry for the ancestors of the Gu family...
After the emperor finished reading the memorial, he saw Gu Yitai showing a mournful look, and teased him, "Gu*qing, just propose a marriage, why are you so scared? I'm afraid I won't agree? I'll reply you now, Yes."
"Thank you Lord Long En!" Gu Yitai knelt down to thank him, and shouted loudly, his heart throbbing with fright, so he couldn't help but secretly blame the emperor for scaring him.
Lin Ruhai also knelt down to thank him, but his attitude was much calmer than Gu Yitai's.
The emperor squinted at Lin Ruhai, raised his eyebrows, and praised with a smile: "Lin *qing is still the same as before, looking weak in writing, it seems vulnerable, but in fact she is very hard inside, stronger than those princes and generals. To be an official, you need to have the aura of being an official. Some officials usually show their power to ordinary people without any ambiguity, but they dare not even give a shit when they come to me! What I want is for officials to express their opinions here. Assisting the court to govern the country is not to be dumb! But in the current court, this kind of 'dumb' happens to be the most."
The emperor paused, and suddenly asked Lin Ruhai: "Are you willing to stay in Beijing and help me get rid of those 'dumbs'?"
Lin Ruhai was shocked, and looked at the emperor in astonishment, the corners of his eyes were slightly moist, and said excitedly: "I wish to do my best."
"Okay! Lin Hai Tingfeng, I now appoint you as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion. From now on, I will work with Gu Taifu to investigate the case of Dai Quan selling officials."
Lin Ruhai led the order.Hearing what the emperor said about Dai Quan selling officials, he knew something in his heart.He has not been in the capital for a day or two, and he has already inquired about the situation of a big official in the capital.Lin Ruhai had also heard a little bit about the matter of this Daming palace minister wearing power and selling officials. In fact, the matter of wearing power and selling officials is not news in the capital.But because Dai Quan's sister is the imperial concubine, no one dared to provoke him to sue.
Gu Yitai was really happy when he heard that the emperor granted Lin Ruhai such an honor.This shows that the emperor still trusts him, otherwise he would never have kept Lin Ruhai in Beijing, and granted him such an important position. ♀Agent Reborn—Ace's Favorite Concubine
Wenyuange University Bachelor, this is a good official position that accompanies the emperor every day, participates in maintenance, assists in government affairs, and advises the emperor. If he is not a close friend of the emperor, he will never be appointed to this position.
Gu Yitai was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he congratulated Lin Ruhai again and again.Lin Ruhai was very calm and did not show too much joy.
When the emperor saw his two humerus ministers, they moved and remained still, and the fit was perfect.Satisfied, he stroked his beard and smiled, and immediately ordered Eunuch Qi to pass on the marriage proposal to the Queen Mother.Then he smiled and said to the two courtiers: "This kind of work of referring to marriage will naturally be left to her old man. She is the best to arrange weddings."
The two left the palace and found a random restaurant to drink and celebrate.
Gu Yitai was really a little frightened by the emperor today, and said with emotion: "I think of how energetic and heroic I was when I was in court in the early years. At that time, I had an upright temper, and I finally admitted death, what? I used to be afraid of death. On the contrary, I got older and became an official, and began to worry about gains and losses. Alas, I am an old person who makes you laugh."
"The Taifu is too modest. The Taifu has a big family business and heavy responsibilities. He is careful to protect future generations. It is not like the sea, alone. Fortunately, there are still a pair of sons and daughters to accompany. Otherwise, there is really nothing to do."
"You also said that you have a pair of sons and daughters, so don't talk about it anymore. Well, let's not talk about business affairs, we should discuss the marriage between my grandson and your daughter..."
In the afternoon of the same day, the news that Lin Ruhai was awarded the second rank Wenyuange Grand Bachelor spread all over the capital city.The Rong Mansion got the news and immediately set off dozens of firecrackers to celebrate. This day happened to be the second day after Qin Keqing's funeral.
Mrs. Wang was lying on the bed taking a nap, when she heard the sound of firecrackers, she frowned and asked what happened.
Jin Chuan said with a happy smile, "Master came back with the news that Uncle Lin was named a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion."
Mrs. Wang frowned, changed her clothes quickly, and hurried to Jia Mu's room.When she arrived, the room was already full of people, including her younger sister, Aunt Xue, and Dongfu's daughter-in-law, Youshi.
Jia Mu's face was flushed, and she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.When everyone saw Mrs. Wang, they also congratulated happily.Mrs. Wang forced a smile, and said a few happy words to Jia's mother.
Aunt Xue came to Mrs. Wang's side and congratulated with a smirk.
Mrs. Wang frowned and complained: "It's fine if others don't understand, but you still don't understand me?"
Aunt Xue smiled dryly and said nothing.Her elder sister is not very reliable. When she went to Mrs. Gu's residence, Aunt Xue heard that Mrs. Wang was very interested in the girls of the Gu family.Coincidentally, the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl from the Gu family matched Baoyu's age.It's no wonder she always said that the marriage is not urgent, and Baoyu is young.Hmph, Mrs. Wang has never considered their family's Baochai. Her daughter's family is one year older than Baoyu, so how can she afford to wait.
Mrs. Wang doesn't need to be polite when talking to her own sister, she said bluntly: "The Lin family's marriage is really a couple. With the help of the Gu family, they climbed up and stayed in Beijing in a serious manner. In a few months, why bother to buy a house, it turns out he has this kind of calculation in mind."
"Not at all. The Lin family has a weak branch and has no party affiliation in the court. Such a person is suitable for the emperor to trust. I think the emperor has a good opinion of him if there is such a marriage. The marriage with Gu Taifu is just icing on the cake." Aunt Xue didn't mean to intercede for the Lin family, she just simply looked down on her sister's previous actions and deliberately told the truth to anger her.
Sure enough, Mrs. Wang was so upset by Aunt Xue that she stayed there for a while, and left on the pretext of visiting Baoyu.
Baoyu has become much clearer than usual in the past few days. Although he still talks nonsense occasionally, he finally understands something.As soon as Mrs. Wang entered the door, Baoyu recognized her and hid in the bed.
Mrs. Wang coaxed Baoyu out with a smile, and suddenly remembered about Lin Ruhai, coaxing him: "I'm here to tell you some good news. Your uncle Lin has stayed in Beijing as an official, and she will live in Beijing when she gets married. You guys It’s easy to meet up because we’re so close.”
Baoyu was even more sad when he heard "married" and burst into tears.
Mrs. Wang frowned, and gave Baoyu an impatient look. "Why are you disobedient, child? No matter how much you missed him at the beginning, now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, you should give up." Seeing that Baoyu didn't speak, Mrs. Wang frightened him and said, "The sage personally allowed your sister Lin and Gu's parents and grandchildren's marriage, do you dare to have any other ideas? You are willing to let your sister Lin and our whole family be ransacked?"
Mrs. Wang wiped her tears as she spoke, hating her son for not living up to expectations.
When Baoyu saw this, his heart softened, and he didn't care to cry.She quickly got up and reached out to wipe away tears for Mrs. Wang, and assured her repeatedly: "My son understands, and he will not miss her in the future."
Baoyu felt that his heart was completely chilled. He had been ill for so long and hadn't seen Sister Lin come to visit him.
Mrs. Wang nodded happily, put Baoyu to sleep, turned around and went back to her room, just as Wang Xifeng came to look for her.For the past few days, Wang Xifeng has been taking care of things in the Ning Mansion, and today she is liberated from the East Mansion. After meeting Jia Mu, Wang Xifeng naturally wants to visit Mrs. Wang.
Wang Xifeng heard about the happy event of Uncle Lin staying in Beijing as an official, and she was also happy. Suddenly, she remembered what had happened, and was wondering, so she stopped by to discuss with Mrs. Wang: "Madam, I remember that Uncle Lin was ill before, and you arranged for me Deliver medicine?"
"Well, what?"
"It's strange, he was ill the day my niece and daughter-in-law left, and the next day he went to the Ning Mansion for the funeral. The master and servants of the Ning Mansion witnessed with their own eyes that Uncle Lin was in high spirits, not like someone who had been ill at all." Wang Xifeng kept going I was doing chores in the Ning Mansion, and I forgot about it a long time ago, because I heard about this happy event today, I only remembered the previous things.
Mrs. Wang frowned and invited Laiwang to question her.Laiwang had heard Wang Xifeng's doubts, but refused to admit it, and only said that Lin Ruhai was indeed ill as said by the housekeeper of the Lin family.
Mrs. Wang saw that Laiwang spoke with confidence, so she naturally believed him. After sending him away, she became angry: "It's obvious that you don't like us. If you don't see it, you won't see it. Why bother to prevaricate us with such absurd excuses? I'm not afraid that it will come true." Sick and die."
Mrs. Wang cursed that the person was dead, and Wang Xifeng knew that Mrs. Wang was really angry.She felt that this happened to the monkey boy Laiwang, but Mrs. Wang was angry and had a deep prejudice against Uncle Lin's family, so of course she would not make fun of herself.Bear with it, wait for Mrs. Wang to finish the fire
Seeing that Lin Ruhai's temperament was still the same as before, the emperor laughed loudly, and Dai Quan also laughed when he saw this.The emperor glanced at him and waved at him.Dai Quan stopped laughing in embarrassment, bowed his body and pushed all the way to the door before leaving.
