Jia Cong yawned, didn't bother to open his eyes, and even leaned on Daiyu's body, found a comfortable position and took a nap.

Daiyu originally wanted to push it away, but looking at Jia Cong's tired and lazy face, she finally put it down, let him pill on her lap, and gently rubbed her forehead.

"If you don't want to, you don't want to, I'll let people go back, and invite girls from all provinces to come to the house another day."

Jia Cong opened his eyes slightly, and said indifferently, "If Sister Lin doesn't like these entertainments, don't bother with ......

Daiyu tapped lightly on Jia Cong's skull: "Nonsense, these are all members of one party, whether it is the Jia family or the Lin family, how can they easily offend people? Besides, Dad and Second Brother Lian are working outside, so they are indispensable to deal with these people. It is good to have this opportunity to get in touch with each other, not to mention anything else, to find out the temperament of several governors, and it will be easy to deal with them in the future."

Jia Cong took the brain melon and pushed Daiyu's soft abdomen, which made Daiyu blush, and pressed the dishonest brain melon: "Don't make trouble, let's get down to business......

"Listen, listen, Sister Lin just looks at it, I fully support it!"

Hearing Jia Cong's response, Daiyu's eyebrows curled.

She is now desperate to get out of the inner house and see the world. These posts sent by the second generation of superintendents just gave her the best opportunity.

"Zijuan, you go and reply one by one, just say that it is inconvenient to bother today, and I will send a post to the mansion another day, and invite all the girls to come to Rongguo Mansion for a gathering."

Lin Ruhai had just returned to Beijing early this morning, and after presenting the excerpt for the meeting, the post keeper of the official post had said that there were more than ten governors from all over the country queuing up in front of him, and he would have to summon them tomorrow.

I didn't want to have just finished lunch, and the palace came to the chamberlain, conveying the emperor's dictation, summoning the Zhongfeng doctor, Zhengzhiqing, the right capital Yushi, and the Qincha to inspect the Jiangnan Prefecture Provincial Salt Envoy Lin Ruhai Qinzheng Hall to face the saint.

Those who were gossiping with Lin Ruhai in the official post once again refreshed their cognition of this person, and it was really Jane's character in the emperor's heart, but they had been waiting in the official post for two or three days, and Lin Tanhua had only returned to Beijing for two or three hours, and they were waiting for the message summoned by the Son of Heaven.

"Lin Aiqing has contributed a lot to the great governance of the salt administration. As Aiqing said, it's time to expand the salt works."

Lin Ruhai rectified the Jiangnan salt class within a year, cracked down on illegal salt, exterminated salt bandits, opened salt farms, and stabilized salt prices.

The price of a pound of official salt has been pressed by Lin Ruhai from three cents or four cents of silver to one and a half cents of silver.

Lin Ruhai is confident that in a year, the price of salt will be reduced by half, completely ending the history of people not being able to afford salt.

The reduction of salt prices not only did not reduce the salt tax, but because of the compression of private salt and the expansion of the sale of official salt, the trading volume of official salt skyrocketed more than ten times, and the salt tax was like a trickle into the sea, and in only half a year, Lin Ruhai escorted more than 4 million taels of silver back to the capital.

Liu Heng's evaluation of Lin Ruhai in his heart has once again risen by a level, and he is really a minister!

Loyal, honest, honest, and capable, what a perfect candidate for slaughter!

It's just that the body bones are not very good......

"Someone, send the imperial doctor."

Liu Heng is an extremely contradictory person, and his attitude towards his courtiers can be said to be polarized.

treats corrupt officials like a storm, but always makes loyal courtiers like a spring breeze, and warms their hearts to melt the cold ice outside.

The imperial doctor soon arrived, and after some consultation, Liu Heng carefully inquired about the physical condition of the imperial doctor Lin Ruhai.

Knowing that it was because of the excessive loss of mind, if you don't recuperate well, you may hinder your longevity, the emperor immediately "applied" Lin Ruhai.

"Lin Aiqing, you have to remember that you still have a wife and a child in Beijing, and your son is only a year old......

"There are many courtiers in the country, but I have only a few people. Aiqing is the Tanhualang appointed by his father, and he is the pillar of the dynasty, and I intend to let you join the cabinet to assist the government, but you look at it, you are not confused, and your spirit is not as good as that of the old man Wen Pixiu."

"This time I go back to Beijing, so let's recuperate. Jiangnan Yanzheng's errand, I will arrange for the appropriate people to do it."

Lin Ruhai was anxious when he heard it, he had only done half of Yanzheng's business, how could he

Can you make substitutions easily?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

Liu Heng waved his hand and interrupted the second half of Lin Ruhai's words: "There is no negotiation, I don't want to lose a right hand!" Rest assured, the salt administration is on the right track, and I will choose a suitable person and continue to do it step by step."

As for the candidates......

Old Thirteen has been living his little life in the gentle countryside every day recently, and I haven't been so comfortable, so let's go to the beach and salt me, hum!

"Emperor, Hubu Shangshu Wen Tongxuan asks to see you."

As soon as the waiter got through, Liu Heng's tooth roots ached faintly, this old ......

I saw the emperor waving his hand irritably and said, "Let's just say I'm busy, I don't see!"

"The old minister greets Your Majesty!"

It's a pity that Wen Tongxuan knew the emperor's temperament, so he squeezed away the attendants who were guarding the door outside the Qinzheng Palace, and squeezed in directly with his hands and laughed.

"Lao Chen heard that Dr. Lin entered Beijing with this year's salt tax silver, so what...... Hey!"

"Old Man Wen, I will never die with you!"

The emperor was angry and threw a handwritten letter to Wen Tongxuan.

As soon as the silver was sent to the capital, the old man was like a hound, smelling the smell of silver and looking for it.

And with one stretch of his hand, he could cut his silver in half.

Don't give? The old man skillfully took off his official hat, lay on the ground of the Qinzheng Hall and began to sprinkle.

Once again, he took out two million taels of silver from the emperor's pocket.

Although Lin Ruhai had heard of it for a long time, when he saw Wen Tongxuan take out two million taels of silver from the emperor's pocket, he had a clearer understanding of this Great Xia Wealth Minister.

At the same time, the perception of the emperor has risen to a higher level again - this is a respectable and admirable monarch who can be deceived in all directions.

Wen Tongxuan held the emperor's handwritten hand, and said to Lin Ruhai, who walked out of the Qinzheng Hall together: "Ruhai, since Your Majesty asked you to come to the household department, the old man will tell you the most important point of being a household official today......

"Shameless!"

Well? Okay, why do you still swear?

"What the old man means is that if you are an official of the household department, you can't ask for face. The people below ask for money, and you have to pull down your face and cry poor. There are a million taels in the household, and in your mouth there are only a hundred thousand taels."

"If you ask Your Majesty for silver, you still can't ask for face. His Majesty's income is one million taels, of which 500,000 taels will be sent to the household department. If you don't give it, you can go wherever Your Majesty goes, even if Your Majesty goes to the harem to rest, you have to lie at the gate of the harem and cry poor!"

Wen Tongxuan has been a household secretary for almost ten years, and his virtual title has been promoted several times, and his actual position has been delayed.

It's not that the two saints don't value this, it's really the old man Pixiu in the household department, who can make the two saints put a hundred hearts.

Not to mention anything else, the second saint had long known that Lao Pixiu had built a secret room in the Hubu Silver Vault. Even though the silver expenditure of the dynasty in the past ten years was very huge, he still saved five million taels of silver in secret like a hamster saving grain.

Such a godrecent, the emperor is angry to death every time, but he will always give various supplements after scolding the old goods.

On the way out of the palace, Lin Ruhai smiled bitterly all the way and listened to Wen Tongxuan's "guidance".

The old-timers are mighty, and they are abolished after school!

After separating from the door of the household department, Lin Ruhai looked up at the gold-lacquered red-background plaque hanging on the eaves, and smiled helplessly.

"Girl, third master, the master is out of the palace."

Jia Cong and Daiyu got off the carriage, and Lin Ruhai saw the pair of children from a distance, and the smile on his face was even worse.

rubbed the daughters and future sons-in-law who asked him to salute one by one, and said with a smile: "The Son of Heaven has given him a grace and promised to be the left servant of the father's household department, so he doesn't have to go back to Jiangnan!"

After nightfall, the hustle and bustle of Rongxi Hall came to an end for the time being.

The children went back to rest, and the old lady looked at her son-in-law sitting at the bottom and sighed.

"When you first came to Jiangnan from outside the Hanlin Academy, you have been gone for more than ten years. Now that she has survived, Min'er, the poor old woman, has no chance to return to the capital."

Lin Ruhai frowned slightly, he knew that the old lady had a grudge against him after all, but in the final analysis, he failed the entrustment of his parents-in-law and made his wife suffer.

It is difficult to have the involvement of his wife's family, and at the same time, he also has his own negligence at the beginning.

Alas, this is a confused account, the kind that can't be calculated.

He got up and knelt down and said solemnly, "Mother-in-law, the son-in-law has asked the palace for a decree for his wife. The son-in-law's wife in the main room, there will always be only Min'er."

The old lady's hand slammed on the table, "What are you doing? I'm not forcing you to stop marrying your stepfamily, do you want Mo Ge'er to bear the name of a concubine for the rest of your life?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said slowly, "Actually, the little son-in-law has thought about this matter before, and plans to record Mo Ge'er in Min'er's name......

"Nonsense!"

The old lady got up angrily: "You are now an official of the Sixth Ministry, and there are countless things to entertain in the future. If you don't even have a proper wife in the family, how can you interact with people?"

"This ......"

Lin Ruhai is a straight man, and he didn't think about the inner house at all. I was reminded by the old lady to think of this stubble, and I suddenly had a headache.

If it's okay to be in a foreign office, there are many cases of eunuchs who don't bring their families.

But now that he is back in Beijing, he is always indispensable to communicate with his inner house.

The old lady was speechless when she saw her son-in-law speechless, angry and funny.

Whether it's a son or a son-in-law, there is no one for her to worry.

"Okay, this matter is not in a hurry, you are tired, go and rest first, and then talk about it in detail tomorrow."

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Rongguo Mansion continued to laugh and laugh.

Lin Ruhai came to write a letter before returning to Beijing, so the old lady asked her to clean up the Lixiang Courtyard with a side door.

Brother Mo is more than a year old, and he can not only call out his father, mother, brother, and sister, but also walk a few crooked steps.

Lin Ruhai hugged the saliva baby, and the wrinkles on Le's face were gone.

He had spoken to Jinse for most of the night last night, and his gratitude to the old lady could not be overstated.

It is true that the old lady complained about him, and it is also true that his wife was silent in the end.

But Jin Se was able to give birth smoothly, and it was inseparable from the protection and care of Rongguo Mansion and the old lady.

You must know that he has been in Nanzhili for more than a year, and he has been assassinated more than ten times alone. If Jin Se really followed him to Nanzhili, I am afraid that he would have died long ago.

"Dumb ......"

"It's Daddy."

"Four Dumb ......"

"Daddy!"

"Dumb!"

Well, be dumb and dumb.

Jin Se Wen put a tiger head hat on her son's head and took out a handkerchief to wipe the saliva baby's face clean.

"I've thought about it, but I really don't plan to move out?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head: "At least don't move for the time being, the situation in the capital is still unclear, Your Majesty is now basically in control of the government, and I am afraid that there will be a big move in the next two years." If you stay in Rongguo Mansion with Yu'er and Mo Ge'er, I can rest assured."

Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai suddenly asked, "Did someone say something in your ear?" Don't you want to continue to live in Rongguo Mansion? Or is someone making things difficult for you?"

"No, it's not ......."

Jin Se knew that Lin Ruhai had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "The concubine is just worried that if she continues to live in Rongguo Mansion, it will hinder the future of the master, and after all, there is a difference between civil and military."

"You're thinking too much."

Lin Ruhai could feel Jin Se's true feelings, and he freed up a hand and hugged him: "Don't worry about this, the difference between civil and military, it doesn't matter anymore when I reach the level of the master." Besides, this is Rongguo Mansion, and I, the poor son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion, will live for a year or two, which is not too much. Whoever dares to talk about such a thing, I will let Brother Cong knock on the door......

"Puff ......"

"Who does my uncle want me to beat?"

The two brain melon seeds at the door made Jin Se's whole person flush red, and the saliva baby in Lin Ruhai's arms smiled toothlessly.

"Sister, brother, sister, brother......

Daiyu was holding the saliva baby and playing a game of eating hands and hands on the soft collapse, while Lin Ruhai was teaching her little son-in-law's homework.

"Your scriptures are good enough to pass the boy's test, but your strategy is very problematic."

After Lin Ruhai read several policy articles handed in by Jia Cong, he trained him seriously.

"Although the most important thing in the policy is to say something, but you are too much to say. If nothing else, the improvement of taxes is also something that you can say as a child?"

"Before you have the power, you have to be with the light, not the eagerness to stand out from the crowd. You have to understand a truth, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it; Walk above men, and the multitude will not."

"Even if you Jia Cong is in the emperor's heart, you can't become the target of public criticism."

"The most important thing in this world is Jane's person in the emperor's heart!" ap.

Lin Ruhai looked at these increasingly fierce rhetoric, and couldn't help but support his forehead.

Brother Cong'er's policies, if they are only directly presented to the emperor, are definitely first-class good articles.

But if it is placed in the field, eighty percent will be directly deposed by the examiner.

If you don't get it right, you will be said to be unconventional, deliberately selling straight to seek fame.

He looked at Jia Cong, who was full of unconvinced faces, and had to say patiently, "Do you know what your teacher Xu Qingteng's strategy was like when he was the middle school leader and champion? It is stable and stable, and there is a hint of novelty in stability. The examiner's highest evaluation of your teacher was the word steady."

Jia Cong had never heard of this, so he couldn't help but be curious.

"Could it be that the teacher never raised the matter of the new coup d'état law during the imperial examination?"

Lin Ruhai raised his hand and rubbed Jia Cong's brain, and said in a serious tone: "Silly boy, the first requirement for the imperial court to elect officials is not to be talented, but to be stable enough. When Xu Qingteng was in the Hanlin Academy, he never publicly preached the new coup d'état law, but began to raise hope when he was in the foreign office, and silently raised hope for ten years, and once it was known to the world. You have to learn hard from your teacher and change steadily!"
