Chapter 146: Urgent Letter
The Lin side of the courtyard received the information instantly, and then immediately passed the information in, and when the two of them ran to the door of the courtyard, they jumped down and knocked on the door, and when they wanted to explain their identity to the porter, Steward Lin had already come quickly.
The porter didn't know them, but Steward Lin did, and he walked up in three steps and two steps, "Why are the two of you here, but what do you have to say?" ”
One of them patted his chest and said, "My lord has an urgent message to hand over to Lord Lin, and we will send it quickly." ”
Steward Lin saw that their eyes were blue and black, and their legs were still a little trembling, so he knew that they had marched all the way, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately led people to the inner courtyard.
"My aunt and grandmother are in the backyard, you come with me."
The two of them followed Steward Lin to the backyard without squinting, and Steward Lin couldn't help but ask, "But what happened in the capital?" ”
The two glanced at each other and didn't dare to say more, "Wait until Lord Lin reads the letter and understands." ”
Lin Qingwan was accompanying Mrs. Xie to copy Buddhist scriptures, and when she saw Steward Lin coming over, she glanced at Mrs. Xie.
Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "If you have something to do, go and get busy, just copy this Buddhist scripture slowly." ”
Lin Qingwan responded with a smile and walked out of the Buddhist hall, Steward Lin pointed to the outside of the courtyard and said, "Auntie, someone from Ren Shangshu's family in the capital has come." ”
Lin Qingwan walked out with him, and when the Ren family saw her, they hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted, and one of them took out a cloth bag from his arms, and did not open it, but handed it directly and said, "Lord Lin, this is my lord and I will hand it over to you." ”
Lin Qingwan took it, and when she saw their faces dusty, she said, "Thank you for your hard work, Steward Lin, take them down to rest, and treat them well." ”
"Yes." Steward Lin hurriedly led the two out.
Lin Qingwan opened the cloth bag and opened the letter directly.
Steward Lin quickly went and returned, and when he came back, he happened to see his aunt and grandmother read the letter, and couldn't help asking, "Auntie, but something happened in the capital?" ”
Otherwise, Master Ren would not have sent them a letter quickly.
Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the dust has settled, send someone to find the fifth brother in the clan, so that he can come over when he has time." ”
Lin Qingwan paused and said, "I will also go to Fuxue and find Lin You." ”
Steward Lin paused for a moment and then retreated.
Lin Qingwan put the letter away, turned around and went to the small Buddha hall again, knelt beside Mrs. Xie, picked up the pen and began to copy the scriptures.
Mrs. Xie glanced at her, and when she saw that her eyes were calm, she withdrew her gaze, thinking that it was nothing serious.
Lin Qingwan accompanied Mrs. Xie until noon, and then rubbed her somewhat sore knees and got up.
I'm used to kneeling, and I only feel pain after kneeling for a morning, you must know that when she first came, it was a quarter of an hour when she knelt and couldn't stand it.
Lin Qingwan looked up at the Bodhisattva in the Buddhist shrine, the longer she was here, the more she was used to the way of thinking of the people here, but she knew that she was different, and this difference did not come from how smart she was, but because the ancestors summed up the law, she stood at the end of history and knew its process, so she was able to be one step ahead.
There are too many differences between her and those who are truly great wisdom, so she has to be careful, and she must be careful in order to be able to control the Ten Thousand Year Ship.
Lin Qingwan secretly prayed in her heart, "Bodhisattva, if you really have a spirit, then bless me and bless the Lin family to survive this difficult time." Lord Lin, may things go as smoothly as I expected. ”
"Sister Wan," Mrs. Xie saw her in a daze at the Bodhisattva, so she pulled her sleeve and said, "Let's go, go to rest after lunch, don't be in a hurry to copy the scriptures, don't burn your body." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled at her, "Okay, mother should be careful." ”
Lin Qingwan helped her across the threshold, and the two went to lunch together.
Mrs. Xie looked at the spring light outside and said, "It's a good spring, and I don't know if Yubin and them have eaten." ”
Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "There are more people serving them in Wenyuan than us, and they can't be hungry." ”
"It's still cold now, and we can't play for too long, so let's send someone to call them back sooner."
Lin Qingwan answered, and sent Mrs. Xie back to take a nap before going back to the main courtyard to rest, but she just lay down Lin Run arrived, and brought Lin You with her.
The two of them are participating in the literary meeting together, and sure enough, when spring comes, the restless heart of the literati can't hold back, this is whether they are old or young, they are keen to participate in the cultural meeting.
Lin Qingwan got up and went to see them.
Lin Run was a little thirsty, took a sip of tea and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Lin Qingwan showed him Ren Shangshu's letter, Lin Run was startled, "This is completely slander, the paper mill is built on poor land, and the grass is sparse on that land, how can it be regarded as good land?" ”
Lin Qingwan raised her hand and said with a smile: "Fifth brother, don't worry, this matter, even the pasture and orchard can withstand investigation." ”
She is not a fool, how can she use good land to plant fruit trees and graze, and of course good land must be used to grow food.
Lin You also took the letter and glanced at it, and said worriedly: "I'm just afraid that the person who comes to check will turn black and white upside down and refer to the deer as a horse?" ”
Lin Qingwan sneered, "My brother's bones are still cold, I want to see who dares to reverse black and white." ”
Thinking of Lin Jiang's prestige, Lin Run was also a little relieved, but he still frowned and said: "But this has a bad impact after all, how can you produce and do business when your Zhuangzi is checked two or three times?" ”
Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and thought for a while: "Wait a little longer, Your Majesty may not agree to them to investigate, if they come, I am not afraid of them." ”
Lin Run walked back and forth and asked, "Then what are you going to do, do you want to announce the straw paper recipe here?" ”
Lin Qingwan glanced at Lin You and said, "It's not the time yet, wait." ”
She thought for a while and smiled: "If someone in the court impeaches me, Your Majesty will definitely want me to plead my case. ”
Lin Run then understood why she had been lending money to the children of the clan to open a paper mill recently, and he couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "Since you expected it, why did you make such a big fuss?" ”
"How can you buy people's hearts if it's not so big?" Lin Qingwan no longer hid it, and said bluntly: "Fifth brother, what do you think I am doing with the paper price so low?" ”
"The world has been in turmoil for so long, I don't dare to guarantee that I will see the day when the world is calm, but I hope I can contribute to this, there are so many poor students in the world, but they are all pressed by the family and the nobles, why?"
Lin Qingwan asked him, "Are they not talented enough, or are they not working hard enough, or they don't have the world in mind?" ”
"No, it's just a system problem, I can't change the system, but I hope someone will change it in the future. After that, the more talented people in the world, the stronger the beam, the more hope there is for the unification of the world, and in the future, my relatives, friends, and those who I see and do not see can live and work in peace and contentment, and no longer suffer from war. Lin Qingwan looked at him directly, "But in this world, apart from the real wise and wise people, who else would think of reforming?" Only those who have a stakehold. ”
Poor students may not be better than the sons of the family, but they have different classes and interests, so what they say and do are naturally different.
She hopes that more people can represent the Hanmen and the common people to dialogue with the imperial court.
She hopes that one day, even if Lin You, Lin Jia, and Lin Moumou are not from a family, they can afford to read books, buy paper, and participate in the imperial examination fairly, and they will not be discarded because they are not famous, no matter how good the articles they write, and they will not be discarded by the examiner because their names are not good.
The imperial examination in the Song and Ming dynasties had many drawbacks, but the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, at least it was much fairer and more just than the current imperial examination system.
Not to mention the paper and books of that time, which she did research, were more than twice as cheap back then as they are now.
Lin You looked at his aunt, his eyes flashed with a light that he didn't even know, and he looked at his uncle with a burning heart.
Lin Run was also shocked by Lin Qingwan, he was stunned and said: "But, but there are too many people who have offended, Sister Wan'er, you have also seen it, even Ren Shangshu said that many ministers in the court and China are silent this time, just because their interests are also touched, and when they join forces, it will not be comparable to a Zhao family, what will you do then?" ”
Lin Qingwan smiled proudly, "What can they do with me?" ”
Lin Run stammered, yes, what can they do with her?
Lin Qingwan is not a rootless person, she is the descendant of the Lin family, Lin Jiang's own sister, or the county lord of His Majesty, what can they do with her?
The Lin family will definitely be targeted, although this move can buy poor students, but who knows how long it will take them to grow up?
Lin You stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Uncle, don't worry, my aunt must have already figured out a way, didn't you say that you would announce the formula?" When the time comes, as soon as the formula is announced, naturally no one will attack my aunt. ”
"Where is it so simple, who is this formula announced to, and who is not announced, how to choose? And "
Lin Qingwan couldn't help but roll her eyes and interrupted him: "Fifth brother, what else can you do like this?" ”
"Don't worry, I will deal with this matter, it really failed, I also have a way to take out the Lin family and carry it alone."
Lin Run was about to speak, but Lin Qingwan raised his hand to stop him and said, "I know what you want to say, don't worry, Yubin hasn't grown up yet, I won't fight hard with others." It's a big deal to go to the capital to pour tea for people to make amends, isn't it just to bend down and bow your head? I can bend and stretch, and this bit of forbearance is still there. ”
Lin Run's face was ashamed, if he was more capable, he would not let Lin Qingwan stand in front.
Lin You's eyes were also red, and he secretly clenched his fists, his teeth clenched.
Lin Qingwan didn't know that the two of them were churning in their hearts, so she instead advised: "I asked the fifth brother to come, first, let you guide the children of the clan who are interested in going out to develop to build a paper mill as soon as possible to seize the market, and second, let them pay attention, don't let people set up a set and don't know it." ”
He turned his head to Lin You and said: "I thought it would be okay to be a little later, but I didn't expect the reaction in the capital to be so fast, and the paper mill business has been too good and eye-catching recently. ”
