On the left and right of Lin Zhao's desk, there were four butter candles, each as thick as a child's arm, illuminating the room very brightly.

Not only that, but there are also several braziers lit in the study, which makes the room warm like spring.

The furnishings inside are also similar to the study rooms of other wealthy families, the decoration is luxurious, and the utensils are all precious.

However, there are also differences with wealthy families,

There were no servants or maids in the study.

And Lin Zhao, the owner of the study, is already in his twenties.

In the eyes of outsiders, this Lin Zhao lived an ascetic-like life.

Of course, the ascetics also want to have such a life.

Seeing her brother waving while thinking, a trace of distress flashed in Daiyu's eyes, she sighed secretly, and silently went to the table, took the wick scissors that looked like crooked tweezers, and cut the wicks of the butter candles one by one.

"My sister is here, just right, you came to study ink for me. ”

Seeing that the candle flame had stabilized, Lin Zhao behind the desk raised his head and smiled when he saw Daiyu's figure.

The four maids and Mama Rong stood far away, all nodding secretly.

's own uncle, sure enough, is a gentleman with a deep love for brothers and sisters.

It was Xiangling who cut the wick for Lin Zhao yesterday, and she was mentally prepared to read at night with red sleeves, but Lin Zhao lightly told her to take a good rest.

Listening to her brother's instructions, Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, went around to the side of the desk, picked up most of the ink on the inkstone, and grinded it unhurriedly.

Lin Zhao, on the other hand, continued to write articles.

It turned out that some time ago, the emperor asked him, a boy with good money, to provide some ideas for opening up financial resources, and Lin Zhao casually said that Songjiang would open a port.

Combined with his ideas of governing the country and the geographical environment of Songjiang, he depicts the prospect of rolling financial resources after the opening of Songjiang.

This Songjiang River is located in the Yangtze River into the sea, not only has a good port, but also has a river to connect the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, but also connects the canal, connecting the world, the south of the Yangtze River, rich and noble for thousands of years, than Chang'an, the capital of the Son of Heaven, is even better, and the industry and commerce in the south of the Yangtze River are developed, and there will be no shortage of manpower, and the location is favorable.

Now it is not as forbidden as the Ming Dynasty, after the founding of the Great Zhou Taizu, the Tang Dynasty was restored, and the sea trade was gradually resumed, but it was only Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Quanzhou and other thousand-year-old ports.

However, looking at the map of China in detail, this Songjiang Mansion is the most suitable place for the Great Zhou to open a port.

But Lin Zhao only talked about the prospects, plans and some related systems.

After all, he is Jinyi Weidutang, and he is investigating the case with a knife, not a local parent official.

Whether Songjiang can open a port or not is just his suggestion.

The decision is made by the Son of Heaven and by the Cabinet.

At first, Emperor Xiaode also thought so.

But after turning around, Emperor Xiaode found that he had the opportunity to change talents, have the right to seek talents, have talents for governing the country, and even have talents who can fight well.

However, there are very few talents who can create a situation with a plan and system from beginning to end.

Both the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Household Affairs are blind and at a loss for what to do about how to open the port.

Therefore, this proposal came full circle and returned to Lin Zhao's hands.

Writing a detailed plan for the opening of Songjiang Port is not a difficult task for Lin Zhao.

It's just a matter of saying "hasty as a law" in his mouth.

But Lin Zhao didn't do this, but fought at night, pondering sentence by sentence, revising back and forth, and had been tossing for two or three nights.

That's why Daiyu came to take care of it.

At this time, Daiyu was quietly studying ink on the side, and Lin Zhao continued to think and write there.

In this way, a full quarter of an hour or so passed, and then Lin Zhao, who was lying on the desk, raised his head, smiled, and casually took the ginseng soup that was placed on the side and put it to his mouth.

"This soup is cold. ”

Daiyu only had time to say these four words, and Lin Zhao had already poured this bowl of ginseng soup into his stomach.

"Brother. Daiyu said angrily: "This soup has been left for a quarter of an hour, so you can drink it if it is hot again." ”

Lin Zhao shook his head and said with a smile: "I think that when the ancestors of our Lin family followed Taizu to fight in the south and the north, and overcame thorns and thorns, it was a bowl of pearl jade and white jade soup, which also felt sweet. Besides, I'm not the boy in those fat powder piles, and I can't even put down a bowl of warm soup. ”

"My brother is just strong words. ”

Daiyu said angrily.

But I laughed a little too.

Although his brother looks good-looking, like the weak son in the book, he actually has the courage to borrow it, not to mention drinking a bowl of warm soup, that is, eating a pig, but I am afraid that it will be fine.

"My brother is so quibbling, it seems that my sister can't control it, and now I just hope that a sister-in-law can enter the door and be able to control you. ”

She paused, couldn't help but be curious, and said, "My brother is already in his twenties, and my father should also worry about my brother's family affairs, but why is there no movement now?"

"You're overthinking. In the past two years, I'm afraid that no one will mention my marriage. Lin Zhao smiled slightly, stood up, walked around from behind his desk, sat down on a chair on the side, and let Daiyu sit again, then looked at Lingge and Rong Mama and the others, and said with a smile: "You are all tired for a day, I don't have to set rules here, you all sit down." ”

A few people smiled and thanked them, and then they all sat down.

Daiyu was slightly shocked by what Lin Zhao said just now.

At this moment, he hurriedly asked: "Brother, where did you start with this? Are you now a third-grade Jinyi Weidutang, or a super-grade Zhongqinbo, how come no one mentions your marriage?"

Thinking of this, Daiyu looked puzzled.

The age of being in his twenties, the prominent official position, and the reputation of the sky, not to mention the general appearance of Pan An.

With such a promising official, it stands to reason that the person seeking relatives should step through the threshold, but why is it sparse in front of the door?

Could it be that the reputation of Jinyiwei is too ugly, and the children of those official eunuchs are unwilling to marry a rough martial artist?

That's impossible.

The so-called lady who has read a book only has stories such as a weak poor scholar in her heart, but it is just written by a poor scholar.

It can't be true.

Daiyu was puzzled, and Lin Zhao smiled: "Because my father is the governor of Shandong, with his merits, age, and prestige, I am afraid that he will enter the cabinet in two or three years." When the time comes, Lao Tzu will become the cabinet elder, and the son will be in charge of the brocade guard, which will not be true. So what I will do next will be the focus of attention of the government and the opposition, once it is determined, then the people who come to the door to ask for relatives will break the threshold. ”

"I see. ”

Daiyu nodded as if she didn't understand.

However, although she did not straighten out the logical relationship in this, she also knew in her heart that it seemed to involve disputes between the government and the opposition.

So she put the matter aside and said casually: "I really hope that my sister-in-law can enter the door early, so that I can be loose." By the way, Sister Feng sent a message today, saying that the old lady wanted to see when we were free, so she prepared a post and invited us to go to the house to enjoy the plum blossoms. ”

"What's the reward, I don't plan to pay the plum blossoms. Lin Zhao laughed, seeing Daiyu's face blushing, he didn't feel more happy: "If it's freezing today, I remember that our family has a hot spring Zhuangzi in Zhongnan Mountain, and I haven't been there, why don't we call our respective friends, where to play for two or three days?"

As he said this, a thought also turned in his heart, and he smiled even more happily: "I can't say it, I can also tell our second sister about a family matter." ”
