Chapter 15: Face Saint

Lin Ruhai heard Mama Dou say this, remembering that her parents died early, and before she died, she was still worried that she was alone and had no support, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart. ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Madame is pregnant, I went to my father and mother's spirit to offer incense to comfort the spirit of the second elder in the sky." ”

Mama Dou said: "It is this reason, less than a year after the marriage of the old lady, the good news came out, it can be seen that the lady is blessed, I just hope that the ancestors of the Lin family will bless her, so that the lady will add a few more brothers and sisters in the future, and spread the branches and leaves for our Lin family." ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Then I'll go and prepare, and I'll take care of my wife." ”

Mama Dou said: "Master, just rest assured, don't dare to say anything else, you will definitely serve your wife and brother well." ”

When Lin Ruhai went out, Mama Dou told Jia Min about many matters related to the woman's pregnancy and childbirth, she was an experienced old man, and Jia Min listened carefully and carefully.

Only Jia Min suddenly said: "Mama, the master has been looking forward to the child for so long, and our Lin family also needs an heir, but what if this child is a daughter." ”

Mama Dou smiled: "What's the matter, don't worry about this, Madame, don't worry about this, there are many flowers that bloom first and then bear fruit, even if you give birth to a sister, the lord is also happy, and the old lady is still young, Madame just cares about giving birth to her, and it is true to have a few more children when you go back." ”

Jia Min said that his face was flushed with shame, but he also put his mind at ease, and felt that he was really blessed, not to mention that the old man was gentle and considerate, and even the grandmother in the family was so reasonable, and she married herself, but there was really nothing unpleasant. I just hope that my stomach can compete for more energy, and it is good to be a man in one fell swoop.

However, it was said that Lin Ruhai had worshiped in front of his parents' spirits, so a personal guard Xuanyi hurried over and said, "The saint summoned the master into the palace." ”

Lin Ruhai said: "What did you say?" ”

Xuanyi said: "No, it was the words of the father-in-law Zhu who came to pass on the saint's side, and now he is still waiting in the front yard, it is not a clear order, it seems that the master was summoned." ”

Lin Ruhai said: "I know, I will change my clothes and go to see my father-in-law first, you ask someone to talk to Mrs., and say that I have entered the palace, and I will come back in the evening, so Mrs. Don't worry." ”

Seeing that Xuanyi went, he cleaned up a little, and went to the front yard, and saw that Zhu Yinglai, the eunuch next to the saint, was sitting there drinking tea, and when he saw him come in, Zhu Yinglai got up and said, "Lord Lin, come into the palace with our family, and the saint is waiting." ”

Because he was a person next to the saint, Lin Ruhai didn't dare to hold it up, and he also arched his hand and said: "I wish my father-in-law a trip, I don't know what happened to the saint's summoning of Lin?" As he spoke, he took out a purse from his sleeve and handed it to Zhu Yinglai: "Zhu Gonggong invites the people below to drink tea." ”

That Zhu Yinglai took the purse, secretly stretched out his hand and pinched it, the purse was only a thin layer, it should be a silver ticket, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and said: "In the past few days, the saint is angry about the case of Yangzhou Salt Imperial History, I read a few folds this morning, and lost my temper again, and after a while, I will let our family invite Lord Lin into the palace, maybe it has something to do with this?" The saint has always valued Lord Lin, thinking that he wants to discuss countermeasures with Lord Lin. ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Thank you father-in-law for telling me, so let's go." ”

Zhu Ying came on horseback, arrived at the gate of the palace, checked the brand, and went straight to the Qianqing Palace, where the emperor sat up and worked every day, and wished the prince justice: "The saint is in the east side of the palace, and Lord Lin will go in." ”

When Lin Ruhai entered the East Side Palace, he heard someone report: "Your Majesty, Lord Lin has arrived." ”

Lin Ruhai saw that the current Holy Emperor Kangzheng was collapsing in the compartment, and hurriedly went down to greet him.

I listened to the words inside: "Ruhai is exempt, come in and talk to me, and everyone else will stand down." Seeing Lin Ruhai coming in, Emperor Kang Zheng pointed to the collapsed chair and said, "Sit." Lin Ruhai confessed and sat down.

Emperor Kang Zheng said: "I don't need to say much about the history of Yangzhou Salt Patrol, you are also clear, I want to hear it now, what do you think about it?" ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen feels that Wu Du has violated the national law, and he must be severely punished to have a deterrent effect, but it is easy to deal with him, I am afraid that there are too many people involved, and the whole Yangzhou will not be peaceful, if the people's hearts are unstable, I am afraid that it will be ......."

"What are you afraid of? I'm afraid it will shake the country's foundation! If you don't dare to say it, I will say it for you! Yangzhou has always been prosperous, taxes accounted for the heaviest proportion in the country, once something happened in Yangzhou, there was a problem with the silver, the treasury had to fight famine, in case the military spending is not continued, the grain and grass are not enough, and the small countries around them are going to be in chaos, don't look at them now one by one honest and tame sheep, once I have an internal instability in the Great Zhou, let them have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and the custody immediately turned into a wolf, and they all rushed to bite us! ”

Lin Ruhai said: "It shouldn't be like this at the moment, the matter of Yangzhou will be resolved quickly, I don't know if Your Majesty can make a holy decision?" ”

Emperor Kang Zheng sighed: "I haven't thought of a suitable candidate for the errand of patrolling the salt imperial history, such an official, the grade is not high, but there is a lot of power in my hands, I am really afraid that I will go to another Wu Du and empty my treasury." At the beginning, there were years of war, the people were not happy, and when Taizu took the world, he did not dare to indulge in pleasure, but he worked hard every day, working hard for the people of the world, and Emperor Wen and Emperor Xuan were also bent on reducing the amount of money and rumors, resting with the people, and I came here," Emperor Kang Zheng pointed to the east and said: "I have been on the throne for fifteen years, at least three times I want to repair the Taihe Palace, but because the treasury is empty, I can't save money, and I haven't done it. ”

Seeing that Emperor Kang Zheng was about to be angry again, Lin Ruhai got up and said: "Your Majesty is angry, it's not worth it to be angry and hurt for this villain, Your Majesty is a wise man through the ages, and he cares about the people, and the people will be able to understand it. ”

Emperor Kang Zheng said: "I hope so." Do you know what I called you this time? ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Weichen doesn't know, please make it clear to the saint." ”

Emperor Kang Zheng said: "Wu Du's case, Yangzhou and even Jiangnan officials are involved in it nine times out of ten, I can pick one or two serious ones, but I can't replace them all, I don't have so many people in my hands, and the people can't afford to toss so much." I thought that I would find a credible person to go to Yangzhou and keep an eye on this bastard thing for me, and when the situation stabilized, I would do them one by one. Ruhai has been with me since I was a child, and I have been by my side, in my heart, there are really few people who are more credible than you, I want to send you to Yangzhou, I don't know what you think? ”
