Your heart's desire

If it is said that Lin Ying's body was still strong a few days ago, he just nestled in the room every day and was angry.Now that after this incident, he was completely ill and fell on the bed, without a trace of energy.

The face that was once full of spring breeze and intoxicating dimples now looks extremely haggard.

If you look carefully, you will find that his lips are pale and bloodless, his eye sockets are also sunken a lot, the upper and lower eyelids are slightly opened, and the eyeballs are dull and lifeless, just like the folklore, he lost his soul Such a situation.

Even when eating, Luo Yan had to hold his head and feed him slowly spoon by spoon.

Sometimes he was fed a little more vigorously, which caused him to cough twice, and he wanted to spit out his entire lungs from his mouth.

Seeing the situation, Ding Xiang also persuaded Luo Yan: "Your Excellency is like this, you must be hitting a ghost, why don't you find a mage to open the altar..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Yan raised his head and glanced at her, and she shut her mouth knowingly: "The servant has stepped back."

He never believed in ghosts and gods. Back then, his mother was devoted to Buddha. Even if she had a good life in Taifu's residence, she still fasted as a vegetarian and chanted scriptures every day.Live like a nun.

But even if it was like this, there was no Buddha who could bless her and let her live in this world.

In today's world, if everyone goes to open an altar when they are sick, it can be solved by praying to Buddha.So the things he has done all these years are actually meaningless?

He tilted his head and looked at Lin Ying who was on the bed, his throat was moving slightly, his face was in pain, and there were faint whispers around his mouth.Thinking of all these things he has endured in these years, the sudden heartache has become a kind of self-blame.

"Wei Zhi, it's not good for your husband, it's not good for your husband, you blame your husband, and your husband has absolutely no objection."

His voice was muffled and deep, but he mentioned the title "husband" again, as if deliberately provoking Lin Ying, but it was a pity that after he finished speaking, Lin Ying still closed his eyes tightly, without opening them at all.

Back then, when he was alone, no matter how many bad things happened, there was nothing he could do.

But later he had himself by his side, and he promised to give him a better life, telling him that he would be able to protect him well.But in the end it was still so useless, and it still made him live a bad life, which led to the current situation.

Thinking about it this way, the train of thought became clearer.What I thought back then, it seemed like a mistake to give up my long-cherished wish for these years for Lin Ying.

If you don't keep this high position in your hands, there will always be a day when Father Lin's fate will fall on Lin Ying.

At that time, the helpless situation back then will come back again.Even tens of thousands of times more colorful than back then.

Even if not, considering that the emperor is now almost sixty years old, for the sake of his country, before he dies, he will definitely remove this thorn in the Luo family's side.

Yang Yang let out a long breath, Luo Yan made a secret plan in his heart, taking advantage of Lin Ying's poor health these days, he must speed up the original plan.

Because of the affairs of Fanzi's envoys, Luo Yan went to court for six or seven days.

Now Fanzi's treachery is obvious, and the emperor knows that he has connections with people from this country.If he couldn't be seen, he might attack Lin Ying.

So he got up early every day and pretended to go to court, and stood at the last position of the hall every day, leaning back against the gate to sleep, he didn't care about big or small things.

When the crowd woke him up in an uproar, they just rushed out from among them, without saying a word, and no one took the initiative to talk to him.

The emperor said it was Lin Ying's meritorious service, but he didn't see Lin Ying coming to the court, so he pushed back for a few days, and finally didn't wait any longer. The mansion who took it for him and brought it back gave him a lot of high-quality medicinal materials, and pretended to ask him to rest and recuperate.

Luo Yan took it for him without saying anything. Today, he woke up only once. After he retreated, he heard the person in front of him move to the middle of the road, bowing and saying: "I have a play, and I will play it in January." After the Empress Yu is the emperor's sixtieth birthday, I wonder if His Majesty will pardon the world and celebrate it with the whole world?"

He took a closer look, and found that the man was the master of Shuntian Mansion who let the arrow know about Chi Pin and He Jian's life, his whole face was trembling, he seemed to be living very comfortably these few days, The flattering appearance is annoying to look at.

Celebrate the whole day, if it is a few more days in the morning, will you not have to die if you don't see and delay the appointment?Would Lin Ying feel better now, not in the current situation?

Although he has seen this kind of thing a lot over the years, it has happened to him time and time again, which makes him a little bit unbearable now.He only hopes that he never wants to meet again in the future.

It's just that these are all unimportant things, the phrase "sixtieth birthday" in his mouth is really harsh.

Calling people's whole body to follow the energy, slowly leaving the door behind him, suddenly an idea came to his mind.

The person above the high position leaned back with a weary look on his face. Hearing these words, he came back to his senses somewhat. With a shake of his head, the bead curtain on the top of his head swayed and collided with each other to make some noises. There was some reverberation in the hall that was several people high, but it was very pleasant to the ears.

"Well, let's let go of the ones that can be let go, and take advantage of the current situation to deal with the ones that can't be let go, so as not to cause other troubles!"

After he finished speaking, he thought about it for a while, and just as the man was about to reply, he said again: "All the recent cases have been put on hold for a while, and the judgment will be made later. Don't do useless work."

Luo Yan grinned at the corner of his mouth. After so many years, the emperor was still the same as before, without changing at all, which made him feel a little mocking.

As soon as he said this, the person sneaked in again, but someone from the other end followed suit: "Your Majesty, I have something to say, and the matter of going to Beijing to set the ceremony, can we do the weight and measure this year?"

The meaning of this set of rituals is that on the day of the birthday, the emperor's chariot will be driven around the capital, and it will stop whenever someone closes the door. The chariot can only leave if something is placed on it.

After a long time, on this day, every household will stay at home and wait quietly, offering gifts respectfully.The father-in-law in charge can pull things over with a whip on his hands, which is commonly known as a set gift.

And this measure is to measure the preciousness of the object.

He stood quietly, waiting for such a sentence, and before waiting for the emperor to reply, he hurriedly stood in the center, bowed his body deeper than before, grinned, imitating the kind of words that disgusted him so much. With a flattering look, he said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, regarding the ceremony, I also have a statement."

After Yuba, there was an uproar in the hall. He glanced at the crowd and revealed a mysterious smile.

Normally, all the officials would only think that Lord Shangshu is transparent, but now standing in front of others and speaking is like a miracle that has never happened in years, everyone is dumbfounded.

Even the emperor on the high platform flicked the pearl in front of his eyes, wanting to take a closer look, whether it was because of his old eyesight that he misjudged people.

"Ai Qing, please speak!"

Gathering his mind, he didn't know what Luo Ya was going to do, but the emperor seemed to wait and see what happened, he put the neighbor next to the dragon chair and leaned slightly, as if he was listening attentively and complacently.

The whispers around him gradually subsided, he cleared his throat and opened his mouth: "The ritual ceremony has been going on for about a hundred years. It has been done since the emperor of the previous dynasty. After several years, the disadvantages have gradually become clear.

It is better to take the opportunity to abolish it, firstly to straighten the hearts of the people, and secondly, to straighten the government guidelines, lest some people always have other thoughts and think that the rules of the previous court are orthodox! "

As soon as the word "repealed" came out, everyone in the hall stared wide-eyed and looked at him in disbelief. Every year in the past, the person who passed the gift didn't make any money.

Today's words are against the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. It is really thankless and completely unnecessary.

However, Luo Yan was very happy to see this reaction. This matter has been practiced for a long time, and the emperor also knows the tricks in it, but if it is canceled rashly, I am afraid that the people in the court will be distracted.But now that he stood up and said what the emperor wanted to say, he sold the emperor's face.

The uglier the face of this civil and military man of the court is, the harder it is for the emperor to repay the debt he owes him.

After hearing what the emperor said, Xu still hadn't recovered, and didn't guess what he was going to do.

Or maybe he felt sorry for the money that could not be collected, and kept silent for a while. Luo Yan also had the courage to break the boat. Xu felt that this matter was not disturbing enough, so he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to. Worrying about this matter of etiquette, I have a method, which can solve the situation without changing the etiquette."

"Say it!"

The people above spoke quite quickly this time.

"Replacing it with the gift of hundreds of officials, you can do treasure appraisal on your birthday, and the most difficult object can be won a good fortune. Isn't it a great reward?"

Every sentence he said poked the emperor's heart, every sentence he lifted him to the sky, and actually brought Lidu back for him. He could have offered any gift at will, but now that he has such a prize, if this gift is impossible lighter.It was so tempting that the emperor had no way to refuse it.

It's just that he didn't notice, the eyes around him changed from questioning and astonishment just now to a kind of obliviousness, and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty stopped talking to each other, only waiting for the emperor's promise, and then they were ready to give up some money. go.

The master at the top did not hesitate this time, and there was clear joy in his words: "Okay, what Aiqing said is true. I really like it. He is worthy of being the son of Mrs. Luo. Then this matter is caused by Mr. Luo." Come and take care of it, don't let me down!"

"The minister must do his best!"
