Noble son of the poor family (79)

The two talked about business for a long time, and Lin Yutong didn't remember that Xiao Zhu said that the Zhu family wanted to marry until he lay down at night.

"Have you taken a fancy to San Lang?" the fourth master said incredulously, "Even He Mao next to me is better than San Lang." ”

He Mao is young, and if he can follow the fourth master, this must be a confidant, and his future will not be bad. Although He Mao has a marriage contract, without knowing it, shouldn't he first take a fancy to this young and promising young man with a handsome appearance? If you inquire carefully, you will know that his family background is also excellent. Why don't you look down on such a person, but you just fall in love with San Lang.

Lin Yutong recalled that San Lang was wearing a white robe at that time, with a pattern of auspicious clouds embroidered with gold thread on the white robe, and a jade crown on his head. She looked up at the fourth master, and now the appearance of the fourth master is definitely not related to the romance, and he is completely a tough guy image.

So Zhu Guixian doesn't seem to be unreasonable when he looks at San Lang.

"Probably by looking at the face. Lin Yutong said in a low voice.

The fourth master shook his head, "Really...... Okay. I'll ask San Lang tomorrow to see what he says, but, with his temperament, if he knew that he could marry your mother's family, he would agree. It's the same as double insurance. ”

Lin Yutong smiled, "Then let them go." She shrunk into the quilt, and the temperature had dropped significantly in the past few days.

The fourth master wrapped her in his arms, "Sleep, Ming'er asked someone to light up the dragon." ”

The two of them decided on this matter, and no one took it too seriously. There are a lot of big things waiting for them, and they don't have time to take care of these trivial things.

The next day, it was afternoon, and the family ushered in an unexpected person.

"Mr. Lu?" the fourth master took the post in his hand and looked at Wu Chunlai, "What about the people?

"People are right outside the door. Wu Chunlai hurriedly said: "I want to see the master now." ”

The fourth master put down the post and walked out quickly, "Tell someone to tell Mrs., and say that Mr. Lu is here in person." ”

Wu Chunlai hurriedly sent a little eunuch, and when he turned around, he saw that the fourth master didn't even bring an umbrella, so he rushed out.

He hurriedly grabbed the umbrella and chased after him.

When the fourth master arrived at the door, he saw that Mr. Lu was standing under the eaves at the door.

"Why didn't you say it in advance?" the fourth master helped Mr. Lu, "It's raining so hard, it's not easy to walk on the road." ”

Before Mr. Lu could speak, the middle-aged man who followed Mr. Lu said: "A letter from the fourth master, asking my father to ask someone to prepare the chariot overnight, and he wants to come to visit." ”

This person's fourth master also knows that it is Mr. Lu's son Lu Geng.

"Sir. The fourth master hurriedly moved, "You are really a tormenting boy." As he spoke, he took the umbrella in Wu Chunlai's hand, "Let's go into the house and talk." ”

Lu Heng smiled, nodded, and followed the fourth master inside. Along the way, the fourth master held up the umbrella and held it above Mr. Lu's head.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Lin Yutong greeted him with a smile, "Sir, we are naturally happy when you are old." But on this rainy day, you are in such a hurry, we were shocked at first. People like you are the treasure of the whole world, and they can't afford to miss anything. ”

As he spoke, he personally supported Mr. Lu and sat on the main seat. Then he personally served tea and handed a hot handkerchief, "You sit down first, and I'll cook for you." You've always tried my craft. ”

Then, with a smile, he retreated.

Lu Heng said: "I have worked hard for the court all my life, and when I am old, I am considered a treasure by you." The tone was very abrupt.

The fourth master held the tea in his own hands, "Sir, if you think that you have worked hard for the people of this world for half your life, you will not be sorry." I only know that during your tenure as the head of the household department, the imperial court never added endowments. During your tenure as the secretary of the ministry, the evaluation of low-level officials was the most severe. During your tenure as secretary of the Criminal Department, the backlog of cases was the lowest. With this, how can you not be a baby?" adheres to the bottom line, but can retreat from the officialdom, and is definitely a capable person. "I asked you before, but you didn't come down the mountain. This time, for the sake of the Yellow Calendar, you came down the mountain in the rain. You're definitely the best in the world. ”

Mr. Lu waved his hand again and again, but his eyes were moist. "The old man can't afford such praise. Before, the old man refused to go down the mountain, because the old man didn't know what kind of person your fourth master was? Watching Zhao Hanshan claim the king, watching King Zheng rebel, watching King Zhao ready to move, and even colluding with the Hu people. The old man was thinking again, who is your fourth master? When will you show your ambition and call yourself the king? Until you pacify the Central Plains, the old man thinks that your time is ripe. The first thing he must have done when he came back was to be king. But I didn't expect the old man to guess wrong. Fourth master, you are very able to settle down, there is no sign of this at all, but to adjust the officials and live with the people. The old man thought this was your strategy, and praised your forbearance. But the old man still underestimated your heart and mind. You want to tear your face with the court, but for a royal calendar. Can you think that the people who tell the people to plant crops well and live in peace of mind are the ones who want you to live in this world? The old man can say that once this imperial calendar comes out, it can be worth millions of teachers. The common people will think, if this Yin Shilang is not the emperor, who is worthy of being the emperor? If he is not an emperor, he is worried about our agricultural time, and if he becomes an emperor, he will definitely be a good emperor. Fourth master, you don't know, what you want to compile is not the imperial calendar, but the hearts of all the people in the world. The old man suggested that this imperial calendar should not only be distributed to the people for free in the north, but also in the south. ”

The fourth master got up and bowed, "Listen to your old man." Let's do it. ”

Lin Yutong came in with a food box, "Let's eat first, after eating, Mr. will rest first." It's been a tiring journey. ”

Mr. Lu pointed at Lin Yutong and said to the fourth master: "You have such a lady, and you can also reach 500,000 elite soldiers." He only mentioned it in the letter, but he forgot about it. I didn't expect Lin Yutong's sense of smell to be so sensitive. This is not something that an ordinary woman can have. Although he always felt that Lin Yutong was a strange woman, he felt that he still underestimated her every time. Just like this time, the young couple refreshed his cognition.

The fourth master laughed: "This is also the first thing that the kid is proud of." ”

Lin Yutong put the food in the food box out and smiled embarrassedly: "This has to be mentioned by Mr." ”

Mr. Lu nodded with satisfaction, the feeling of being sincerely respected is not bad.

At the door, Li Jishan, Liu Shuquan, Fang Changqing, Fan Dongzhe and others all arrived, and the fourth master invited a few to accompany him. It wasn't until the dinner table that a few people knew that the fourth master was going to compile the yellow calendar.

"The fourth master cares about the world, this is the blessing of the world. Li Jishan hurriedly said.

Lin Yutong laughed in his heart, no wonder the fourth master said that Li Jishan is a person who is not good at words, this sycophant is very shriveled. She and the fourth master are both people who have stayed in high positions and have heard countless flattering words. Lin Yutong called this a sycophant, and the fourth master said it was indecent, which should be called 'praise of the saint'. It is the duty of a courtier to sing praises for the king. But this 'Praise to the Saint' also has skills, and some people shoot it, which can really make people feel comfortable. Some people just shoot people uncomfortable.

People who can talk, those who sing praises and virtues, even if they are false, make people feel that they are truly rare.

People who can't speak, even if they are sincere, make people feel fake bubbling.

Li Jishan belongs to the people who can't speak. The loss is eaten in the mouth.

I saw Liu Shuquan put down his chopsticks and arched his hand towards the fourth master, "Fourth master, my subordinates have traveled a lot of places and met a lot of people over the years, and what I usually like to do most is to walk around the street and listen to the people's street conversations." The subordinates always feel that they can see the prosperity and change from these street discussions and their every move, word and deed, food and clothing, and even every grass and tree. The last time his subordinates left Beijing was ten years ago. At that time, on the streets of the capital, the most lively during the day was the market of chickens and dogs, and the most lively at night was the flower street and willow lane, and the gambling theater. At that time, his subordinates felt that this was a declining trend. But when he returned to the capital with the fourth master this time and walked on the street, what came from his ears was the sound of practicing martial arts and Lang Lang's reading. What is this? This is a vigorous voice of hope. Now, seeing that the fourth master takes this matter of the people to heart, his subordinates see a heart belonging to the emperor from here. A benevolence that belongs to Mingjun. ”

Lin Yutong said in his heart, "Look! This is the person who can talk."

The fourth master waved his hand, "This Mr. Qingtian usually disdains sycophants, but once he speaks, there is basically nothing else to do." ”

Liu Shuquan hurriedly surrendered his hand, "This is really from the bottom of my heart." ”

A few people laughed and passed.

Today, Liu Shuquan can be regarded as putting some words on the bright side, saying that the fourth master has a benevolent heart that belongs to Mingjun.

But everyone knows that the fourth master also has an ambition that belongs to the king.

When he returned to the backyard in the evening, the fourth master said to Lin Yutong: "This Liu Shuquan is smart, that's really smart." "In front of Mr. Lu, he pointed out the ambition of the fourth master, which forced Mr. Lu to retreat. I can't get on the fourth master's boat.

Lin Yutong smiled: "This person is usually taller and more arrogant, and there is nothing wrong with anything else." Although he can speak, he rarely tells lies. But that Li Jishan, he can't speak, but sometimes, it's hard to hear the truth. For example, he always said that one tael of silver was nearly two hundred taels. 500 old, weak, sick and disabled are said to be 500 elite soldiers and strong generals. It's really hard to say which is better or worse. ”

"Will you really be full of the truth in the future?" the fourth master waved his hand, "That's really not." Just telling the truth will not be an official. He was so clever that no one could notice that he had lied. ”
