Piercing Stories (143)

If Lin Yutong is a serious person, then the fourth master is even more a serious and persistent person.

The fourth master listened to Lin Yutong's thoughts, took Lin Yutong's hand and didn't speak for a long time, "Only you know what you think." The burden of the world is overwhelming. ”

For the first time, the fourth master's face showed exhaustion. "I didn't expect that. The master's heart is not as wise as it seems. Holding the authority of the world, the lord is trembling all the time. When a person sits on a high chair, he will also be scared and confused. ”

"Master......" Lin Yutong held the fourth master's hand, "It's because I've been busy for a while, and I haven't even seen it." ”

The fourth master shook his head, "How dare you let people see it." I'm afraid that I will show my fatigue and be torn to pieces by the people who pounce on me. ”

"No!" Lin Yutong said with a smile: "The first emperor has so many sons, but he only gave the throne to the master." That's because the lord deserves this throne. Ye is the most suitable person in the heart of the first emperor. But there is no perfect person in this world, and there is no perfect thing. Ye is too demanding of himself, and blindly wants to be perfect. It's hard for yourself. ”

"Master, tell me the truth. I think the first emperor took a fancy to your public heart of the world. In previous years, where there was a disaster, where there was a man-made disaster, the lord always paid the most attention. As long as you have this public heart, then you are a good emperor. The eyes of the common people are bright. As long as you have a clear conscience, why should you be afraid?"

The fourth master slowly lay down and pillowed on Lin Yutong's lap, "Every decision of the master involves the life and death of thousands of people. But no matter how careful you are, you often make mistakes. The corrupt officials in the world, the mediocre officials in the world, I want to put an end to it, and I want to make the world honest. But it's just a dream. If you want to make the people of the world have endless porridge on the dinner table, this is also an impossible task for the master to complete in his lifetime. I am afraid that if I work hard, the people will still be hungry and clothed. Sometimes, I wonder if I can really afford this world. I don't dare to slack off for a day, for fear that if the emperor knows something, I will feel that I have chosen the wrong one. I'm afraid that my brothers will be disdainful in their hearts, and I think that anyone else can be better than my grandfather. I'm tired. ”

Lin Yutong slowly pressed his head on him, "Actually, hearing what my master said, I feel relieved." Because the Lord is in awe. A person who is in awe of everything is not a big mistake, even if he is wrong. ”

She didn't know what she was talking about, whether she could comfort him.

These days, he gets up in the middle of the night and sleeps three watches. It keeps spinning like a spinning top. It was as if there was always a whip whipping him.

"Is there something difficult in your heart?" Lin Yutong asked softly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been brought out so many emotions by one topic of my own.

The fourth master said lightly, "It is said that you shouldn't be a father for three years." But I had to change my father's ways. ”

That's a bit cold.

Lin Yutong didn't speak, just listened quietly.

"The arrears of the household were paid off when the emperor Ama was alive. But in the end, even Sancheng did not come up. Nowadays, Qinghai-Tibet is unstable, and sending troops is imminent. However, the household department could not bring in the money. Even if you put Huang Ama and our savings over the years into it, it's just a drop in the bucket. Everyone is looking at how many more official positions they can get when they go out on the expedition, and how many rewards they have for their functions. But I don't have the money to send troops! The emperor has not asked for the debt back, but if I don't want it again, can I conjure up the money from somewhere to fight this battle? No!"

"These days, everyone looks at whether the reward I give them is rich or not, but only you have turned the meal in front of you into four dishes and one soup. Everybody knows that's what I used to eat. But still no one remembered to return the money from the household. ”

"Then what can I do?" the fourth master sneered twice and sat up, "I am not afraid that the history is like a knife, and I am not afraid that the world will say that I am mean and unkind." I have to let them know that fame can't bind me. I'm not the kind of person who abandons the overall situation of the world for the sake of my reputation!"

Lin Yutong stood up, looked at the fourth master, who was a little trembling with anger, and slowly hugged him from behind, "No matter what others say, as long as it is for the good of the world, the master will do it." Time will tell, and history will give you a fair judgment. It's not anyone's slander, any dirty water, that can cover your light. ”

"Won't it?" the fourth master turned his head to look at Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong smiled: "No! When the time comes, everyone will love the fourth master." ”

The fourth master was stunned for a moment, what is the saying that 'everyone will love the fourth master'? But soon, the fourth master's ears were red.

"Nonsense! What do you love or not?" the fourth master reflexively hugged her, "Why are you still so open-mouthed." ”

This is to vent a belly!

Lin Yutong breathed a sigh of relief first, leaned into his ear and said, "I love the fourth master?"

The fourth master held her hand tightly, "Don't make trouble, wait for later...... Okay, okay?"

Showing love and begging for joy are not the same, hey!

What the fourth master said at night, Lin Yutong remembered it all in his mind. The next day, she went to the Queen Mother to discuss how to reduce the use of the harem. In her opinion, this is a bit formalistic, but even if it is formalism, it must be done.

The Queen Mother naturally will not object, in fact, the Queen Mother is not an extravagant person, and she has a lot of use in the palace, but most of them are rewarded. Those old nobles in the palace are always there, and the old concubines who have no sons are not having a good time. The Queen Mother still never spared her own things, and fell into a reputation that no one can blame. Even if there are more dishes in a meal, it is more when it is given to grandchildren. For example, Prince Li's family's Hongyu Hongpu and Yaliqi. There are also the children of the Tenth Master's family. The children of the thirteenth master's family. This is all under the care of the grandmother who is not in the palace. With the queen mother's reward, they have enough confidence to walk in the palace.

Lin Yutong said: "The empress dowager and the concubines of the first emperor have not diminished at all. Only the concubines of the harem, including the prince and the princess, have been halved. ”

The Queen Mother said: "Mine has also been reduced." Seeing that Lin Yutong was about to speak, she waved her hand, "How much can I eat? I can also reward other rewards, what can't I do with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone? What to reward is secondary. ”

Lin Yutong was a little reluctant, "Until now, I have to ask Eniang to follow us to live a hard life." ”

The Queen Mother laughed, "Where is this bitter!"

She patted Lin Yutong's hand, "Thanks to you for persuading the fourth child, and you are willing to ask Hongzhao to follow the fourteenth closer." So that the two brothers did not make a fuss. Fourteen is a wicked obstacle, but the palms and backs of his hands are full of flesh. Parents are like this, seeing that this child is doing well, I want him to pull and order that. But this also has its own difficulties. I didn't know that. But I had to be cheeky again. Now, with Hongzhao adjusting inside, everyone will give a little more face outside. With you by the side of the fourth child, his temperament is a lot softer?"

Lin Yutong pursed his lips and smiled, "This is because you love me." I felt good. ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said that they were very agreeable, but the imperial study was not so peaceful, and there was a posture of mountain rain coming and the wind was full of buildings.

The ninth master was a little apprehensive, "Long live the master...... Fourth Brother...... This was never handed over by a courtier. Hell, I don't know why I got caught in my brother's fold......"

The fourth master glared, "This is the most fatal thing, you can't take care of your own surroundings, what do you dare to ask you to do?"

What he was holding in his hand was a piece of music that was sandwiched in the Ninth Master's fold.

This recital comes from the old eight......
