When Yun Shuyao left, her back was soaked in sweat.

Her reply was discussed with Lin Ruhai. If the emperor didn't summon her, what would Lin Ruhai say? If he wanted to see Yun Shuyao, what would Yun Shuyao say.

Because of the credit of the two of them, it is actually a discount.

The reason why Lin Ruhai came here to serve as the salt censor of the Lianghuai River is because the salt tax collected by the imperial court has been reduced year by year, and logically speaking, it should have increased year by year. For this reason, Kangxi was angry and demoted Lin Ruhai's predecessor. He came and increased the revenue of the treasury.

In order for him to do a good job, collect more taxes from the court, straighten out this place, and give Lin Ruhai a grace, that is, point his second daughter to the fourth elder brother as a side Fujin.

Considering that they were in the Han Army Banner and that Luo Yu was a concubine, it was a little flattering. He used this flattery to make Lin Ruhai work hard.

In Yun Shuyao's easy-to-understand words, he did a good job in office, and that's what he deserved, because Kangxi had already paid part of the remuneration in advance.

If it is not done well, Luo Yu has already gone to be a Fujin and cannot be taken back, but it is inevitable to sit on the bench and demote officials.

However, some accidents happened during this period, and the accident was that Yun Shuyao proposed the salt drying method.

Many of those salt mines are privately owned, and the method used by the imperial court to control them is to use salt.

So what if there are salt mines, without salt mines, there is no sales license, and sales cannot be made.

This salt is bought by salt merchants. In order to avoid this expense, private salt is prevalent and the salt tax is reduced.

With this seawater sun-salt method, although there will be restrictions such as weather and terrain, there are still many that meet the conditions.

The energy is constantly getting salt from the sea, and even most of the salt mines of those salt merchants can be discarded.

This is the real official salt, a "salt mine" controlled by the imperial court, which better controls taxation from the source.

That's why Yangzhou was so violent before.

Taking money from someone is like killing your parents.

In the eyes of those salt merchants, it may be more serious than Lin Ruhai killing their parents, so Kangxi later sent soldiers to suppress it.

This credit was divided again.

And it has to be mentioned that Lin Ruhai was also at fault for not keeping secrets and leaking the news halfway, which is why there was such a disturbance.

Although the reason for leaking the news, Kangxi has already decided in his heart that evil spirits are causing trouble, but if the news is leaked, it is leaked. If it is not serious, Jiangnan will be in chaos.

Fortunately, the merits and demerits balance out.

Kangxi already has a promising candidate, and he has identified who will take Lin Ruhai's place.

Just don't know what position he will give.

On this point, Lin Ruhai also had guesses.

Because one radish has one pit, now there is exactly one pit.

Unless the emperor transfers other people, he has no place.

Now he summoned her and asked her what she wished, and she couldn't speak nonsense.

Yun Shuyao: "Reporting to the emperor, this is what courtiers should do. In the eyes of courtiers, if the emperor is not wise, the world will be peaceful..."

Yun Shuyao blew a rainbow fart, and then euphemistically talked about her predicament.

She was born in an ordinary family, and she was the daughter of a scholar when she entered the gate of the Lin Mansion. It is lucky to be able to enter the Lin family to have children, and it is even more fortunate for her daughter to become a member of the royal family.

Kangxi understood.

He nodded, then nodded to Chenyu, asked him about the poetry meeting, and proudly asked Brother Thirteen to compare with him.

He obviously likes the thirteenth elder brother very much, and it is not the first time Yun Shuyao has heard the saying that the thirteenth elder brother is both civil and military.

Chenyu also secretly tensed up and dealt with it carefully.

When he left with his aunt, when the wind blew, he felt cold on his back, and it was uncomfortable when his clothes stuck to his body, and he sweated so much before he knew it.

When they went back in the carriage, Chenyu wanted to say something, but he was concerned that the walls had ears, they were in the carriage, and the driver was there, so he didn't say anything sensitive, "Brother Thirteen is really amiable Respect, you are so charming." He said this sincerely: "It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see the prince today."

It is said that the prince has other missions, and he is not by the emperor's side today.

After returning home, only the two of them opened their mouths, Yun Shuyao: "The emperor didn't say anything, I don't know if he will agree."

Yun Shuyao's wish is to see her daughter.

If Kangxi refuses to give any grace, he only needs to say a word to Si Age's house, and that's it.

If she is willing to give Grace, it will probably be an imperial order, not only the fourth prince's mansion, but she can go to other mansions without the old lady leading her.

This nervous mood is more exciting than a promotion and salary increase.

Fortunately, before Kangxi returned to Beijing, he made a decree, two ways.

One is a transfer order to Lin Ruhai, which is the position he guessed before, the third-rank right capital censor.

He was from the third rank when he was in office, and then he returned to the capital, served as an imperial envoy for the emperor, and then came here.

Now I am a third-rank official when I go back, and I am still an official in the capital. Officials in the capital are half a rank higher than those in other places.

Lin Ruhai didn't have to take office so quickly, because he had to hand over to his successor first.

The other one is for Yun Shuyao.

Yun Shuyao said that she wanted to see her daughter, and Kangxi knew that her status was really low. As a concubine, if she wanted to go to see Si Fujin, she needed someone to take her with her.

For example, if the old lady of the Lin family is still alive, she can take her to the Fourth Old Man's house. If the old lady Lin passes away, she can no longer come alone.

This couldn't be easier for Kangxi.

Lin Ruhai was the censor of the right capital of the third rank, and Yun Shuyao got the imperial order of a respectful man of the fourth rank.

It is a kind of honor, not an official position, to order my wife to get the imperial salary.

Usually it is her husband or son who asks for the title, but what Yun Shuyao got now is due to her own efforts.

Yun Shuyao thinks it's worth it, it's not worth mentioning to Kangxi, but it's a good deal to her.

With this level of identity, if Yun Shuyao goes out with Lin Ruhai again, others will no longer be able to treat her as an ordinary concubine of the Lin family.

She can also go to see her daughter by herself.

Yun Shuyao exaggerated and exaggerated: "The emperor is wise."

If he gave her the result she wanted, then he was Shengming. If he just praised her a few words and then gave some money, it would be the emperor being stingy.

But perhaps for Kangxi, the two should be reversed.

To give the status of a fourth-rank wife, you just need to give some salary every year, and this salary is really not much, if you give a reward, it can't be too little.

The amount given is too little, and others will be chilled when they see such a contribution, but if they are given too much, Kangxi will also feel pained.

Chen Yu was overjoyed, "Congratulations, Auntie!"

He had once thought that the emperor would ask his aunt to straighten him up, but just thinking about it, he knew how absurd it was. If his aunt proposed that, the emperor would not know what he would think.

Moreover, this kind of thing is not in compliance with the rules. The only one in the world who can be so unruly is the royal family.

The emperor's concubines can become wives, but officials can't. They still need to educate the common people. If the idea of ​​raising concubines as wives is opened, there are so many concubines and concubines in the world, wouldn't they want to change their identities?

If it's possible to mess around, it's going to be messy.

This is also the best reward Lin Ruhai imagined for Shu Yao.

So he said that he would set up a table to celebrate at home, and Yun Shuyao immediately agreed.

She is very happy.

Let the kitchen serve a table of food, and then pair it with wine, the family of three had a good meal.

After two edicts, someone has come to congratulate the host on behalf of the host, and at the same time asked when the banquet will be held, so that they can ask for a glass of wine.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Right Capital Censor.

From the prince, down to the petty official, all affairs are under investigation.

It's another imperial decree, which is quite surprising, and it's also due to Aunt Lin's contribution.

Yun Chang also got an official position.

His name was reported by Lin Ruhai along with other meritorious persons. He was rewarded for his meritorious service and became an official for nothing. Those who had official positions were promoted and raised.

Recently, there have been many wedding banquets in Yangzhou.

The Lin family held a banquet, and everyone gathered, and the surrounding roads were blocked.

The Xue family was also one of the people who came to congratulate her.

Seeing this magnificent scene, everyone in the Xue family had their own tastes, and only Xue Pan didn't think about anything: "Today is really lively."

Father Xue: "..." He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

During this banquet, Yun Shuyao could clearly sense the change in the attitude of the other female relatives towards her.

Now everyone calls her a respectful person, looking at her eyes with curiosity, admiration, and some doubts, doubting that she really made a contribution, and it is not Mr. Lin who is so lustful and divides his credit for beauty. Run out?

But even if these people were suspicious, they wouldn't say something that shouldn't be said at this time. In a small way, they doubted the Lin family, and in a big way, they doubted the emperor.

Of course they can't doubt the emperor.

Some of the main rooms who used to put their eyes on the top of their heads now look at Yun Shuyao at the same level.He didn't treat her as Lin Ruhai's first wife, but he also treated her as his second wife, half wife.

Yun Shuyao couldn't help but feel that in the feudal era, class and identity were really important. Today is the time when she is most regarded as an independent person in diplomacy.

In the past, some people would tell her about their son's marriage, but it was hard to say which one. Now those who have suitable candidates in their families will come to test her vaguely, asking what kind of lady Chenyu wants to marry.

After the banquet, Yun Shuyao asked this question again: "If you don't tell me, your father will order you something you don't like, don't regret it."

Chenyu's answer remained the same as last time, "Smart, well-educated, and pleasing to the eye is enough. If the other party also likes food and reading, then there will be more common language."

The reading he mentioned here does not mean reading the Four Books and Five Classics, nor is it about women's precepts, any book is fine, as long as you like it, you will continue to enrich yourself.

He doesn't have high requirements for family background, as long as he is not a hindrance and has a clean family tradition, he is fine.

He is against the Yun family. The Yun family's family background is obviously not high, but he thinks the Yun family's family style is very good. Look at his aunt, and look at the two uncles who have passed the Jinshi exam.

Lin Ruhai listened and shook his head: "The family tradition is clean and famous, and the daughter earns money from studying, and the appearance is not bad. Do you think it is very common?"

Chen Yu just laughed: "So I have to trouble my father."

Lin Ruhai: "No trouble." He still enjoys it very much, but it is really hard to decide on this candidate, he has to think carefully, and then think again, the wife he married is not good, and it will ruin three generations. Here you can refer to his mother-in-law.

Lin Ruhai handed over people very quickly. He knew from the very beginning that he would not stay in this position for a long time, so he sorted out everything clearly, and when the handover was over, they immediately sailed northward by boat.

Back in the capital, Lin Ruhai went to take office first, and then distributed invitations widely, inviting relatives and friends to celebrate on the holiday.

Xilinjueluo's house and the fourth elder brother's house also received invitations.

Dachun became nervous all of a sudden. He hadn't seen his father-in-law since he changed his identity, but he knew it wasn't easy to provoke, because after marrying his wife, he received a thick pile of homework, which was difficult and deep. Not finished.

It's over, and now it's only a few days before the banquet!
