There are many people from the Lin family who come to Beijing, and the one with the highest rank is Lin Jin, the third uncle who temporarily represents the head of the Gusulin clan.

At this time, the old woman who had a good conversation with the old lady was Lin Jin's wife, Fu Shi.

Fu was born in the Hangzhou weaving and embroidery family, the Fu family not only produced several people, Mrs. Fu's father also served as an official to the Hanlin Academy of bachelors, once mentioned to study Fujian, and his disciples are all over the south of the Yangtze River.

The old lady has a very good impression of the Fu family, and the last time the two met was when Lin Jin and his wife came to the capital to help Lin Ruhai hire.

After 20 years, the two met again, and it was because of a happy event.

The old lady praised openly and secretly, laughed and scolded Jia Cong's ability to "cause trouble", and beckoned the mandarin duck to take Jia Cong into the house.

Mrs. Fu will not take this seriously, who in the world does not know the royal cat Jia Cong? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's name may not be as loud as the name of the royal cat Jia Cong.

"Grandchildren visit grandmothers, uncles and grandmothers."

As soon as Jia Cong entered the door, he knelt down with a thud, and the knock was a bang.

Mrs. Fu hurriedly said to Daiyu: "Yu'er girl, help him up, this child is really sincere, the bricks on the ground are about to be broken." ”

As she spoke, she smiled at the old lady and said, "I don't believe what the old sister said at all." How could such a filial child give the old sister a headache? ”

This is not the old lady's compliment, these days, filial piety is greater than the sky.

In the hearts of the world, how bad can a filial person be?

Jia Cong is pleasing in appearance, and he is especially pleasing to the eyes of the elderly. At a glance, Mrs. Fu felt that this child was a perfect match for her Yu'er girl, and beckoned her to come closer.

"This child looks so happy, like a fairy child in the New Year's painting, the child of the old sister's family is really good-looking. It's not like my family, just like Bai'er, the child, I don't know who he is, the son is not like a son, like a father, he has a straight face every day......"

Puff~

Tanchun, who was sitting on the side, was the first to laugh, and Daiyu also covered her mouth and snickered.

Not to mention, Mrs. Fu's words really describe Lin Bai's personality as an extraordinarily good image.

Among the Lin family's wooden characters, Lin Bai, who is the most promising, is simply a young version of Lin Ruhai, and he learned from his uncle with every move.

It is estimated that it is only a little more lively in the fiancée's spring visit, and at other times, it feels like an old pedant and a patriarch.

The four girls in the room, Daiyu, Tanchun, Xichun and Xiangyun, were all laughing, but Jia Cong still wanted to pay tribute to his uncle Lin Bai.

"Uncle and grandmother, Third Brother Bai is a stable person, Your Majesty has praised it, saying that Third Brother Bai is the next Uncle Lin, and he is a loyal and capable minister of the country."

To be so praised by the emperor, Lin Bai's future is not ambitious.

Lin Ruhai was twenty years old in the middle of the flowers, thirty years old official to Yangzhou to patrol the salt imperial history, forty years old into the center as the head of the household secretary, seeing that he was going to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister.

Lin Bai is only in his early twenties now, as long as he goes to a place to work for three or five years, how can he change into a scarlet robe after returning to Beijing, and enter the six ministries and five temples to become a sitting official.

The Gusulin clan has been silent for more than ten years, and now it can be regarded as a capable person, and there is no need to worry about no successor.

Hearing what Jia Cong said, the smile on Mrs. Fu's face was even worse.

She called Tanchun to her, touched her pretty face and rubbed her little hands, which was called a rarity.

looked at Xichun, whose eyes were shining, and who had not yet shed his childishness, and Xiangyun, who was biting his ears and whispering with Daiyu, his eyes were hot and envious.

"I'll steal a few of my old sister's good granddaughters from my house and bring them back to the south in a hurry."

When the old lady heard this, she pretended to be generous, waved her hand and said, "Hurry up and take it, these girls are chattering every day, and they make me have a headache......

"Ah, ancestor, don't you want to pity the girl?"

Xichun was eating happily with a plate of iced plums, but when she suddenly heard this, she ran to the old lady with a roll of her eyes, flashing her big eyes, and wanted to cry.

"Is it a pity that the girl eats too much, the ancestor dislikes me. Shall I only eat half of it in the future? The rest are honored to the ancestors. ”

As he spoke, he handed the fruit bowl in his hand to the old lady, staring at the dried fruit in the plate with his eyes, and his reluctant appearance was very funny.

The old lady pushed the fruit bowl back, pulled Xichun's face with baby fat, took it into her arms and said with a smile: "The girl is the most lovely, why would grandmother leave you?" Even if you give Baoyu and this little fox to someone, your grandmother will not give you up. ”

"Grandmother is going to give me to someone?"

As he was talking, Baoyu, who was wearing a golden crown and a red robe and jade belt, strode in.

As soon as he came in, he knelt down and kowtowed to the two old ladies in the right position, just like Jia Cong.

"Grandson to grandmother, uncle and grandmother!"

The old lady raised her hand and pointed at Baoyu, and introduced it to the old lady very proudly.

"This is my grandson Baoyu, who has been raised under his knees for more than ten years and has not yet become a weapon."

Look at what he said, if Baoyu doesn't make it, there will be few people in the family of the noble princes in the capital who dare to say it.

Jia Cong really has some toothache and the arrogant words of the elders, just because Baoyu is only sixteen years old now, but he is already a court official of the fifth grade, or is he born as a Jinshi, this dare not be said? That's why the old lady is qualified to say this.

Old Lady Fu's eye fever has reached a peak, this old lady of the Jia family is really ......

It's infuriating!

I'm not angry, I'm not angry, his brother from the Jia family is brilliant, and my brother from the Lin family is not bad!

However, this Baoyu of the Jia family is really beautiful, and she is even happier than Yu'er's little fiancé.

I can't complain that the old lady "likes the new and hates the old", but Baoyu's appearance is too good.

Just that face plate like the Mid-Autumn Festival moon, it is definitely the most loved by the elderly, it is too festive, and it looks like a blessed person.

Because of Baoyu's appearance, several babies in the house seem to have fallen out of favor. Even Lin Bai rushed from the yamen to pull his grandmother's eyes back from Baoyu.

After all, the third brother Bai, who is not like his son like his father, is definitely not as pleasing as the second master of Bao who entertains his relatives in colorful clothes.

The Lin family came a lot of people this time, and they came with a lot of belongings, dowries, and furniture.

According to Old Lady Lin's instructions, Lin Bai had already bought a four-hall courtyard in Huanghuafang near the Gongyuan.

The two Lin mansions are only one street away, and they will take care of each other in the future. Tanchun's wedding dress has been repaired, just wait for the sixth day of the fifth month, the Jia family will marry a daughter, and the Lin Mansion will marry a woman, which will be auspicious and good for a hundred years.

……

This year's spring seems to be earlier than usual, and the spring breeze in February blew green the willow branches on the riverbank.

Although the ceremony will be held in a few days, Lord Lin Daiyu did not change her work plan, and once again started the new year's inspection with the people.

Jia Cong felt that there had been a lot of noise in the city recently, so he didn't bother to deal with those who were still baring his teeth at him, so he changed into a regular suit, brought all the royal gifts he could bring, and got into the carriage of Her Royal Highness Princess Wen'an.

"Sister Bao went to the household department, and the third sister wants to stay in the Department of Compulsory Education to handle official business, and I don't even have anyone around me who can use it now......"

Daiyu put down the official document in her hand, stretched out her hand and pointed at Jia Cong's forehead.

I saw that the third master was reluctant to leave the warm and soft jade legs, opened his eyes slightly, and wanted to grab Daiyu's fingers and send them to his mouth.

It's a pity that this game has been played many times, and Daiyu has long been alert and didn't let Jia Cong succeed.

Jia Cong lay down again and rubbed into Daiyu's arms.

"What's so hard about that? Let's tell the fourth brother that it would be good to let the crown princess hold a small election and choose a few competent people to help. ”

This small selection is not to choose any female official of the palace, let alone to choose a concubine for which prince and grandson, but to choose a good official for the princess.

At the moment when there is no women's imperial examination, there is only the path of the princess Zanshanguan to choose.

Daxia is thousands of miles away, and talented people and talented women emerge in endlessly, so there is no reason why you can't choose a few capable people.

There is a precedent for Baochai and Tanchun, who have won the status of serious officials in the imperial court, and after the news that Princess Wen'an wants to choose two more assistants spreads, I don't believe that no one should be selected.

After listening to Jia Cong's suggestion, Daiyu frowned slightly.

"Chun'er is still young, and the other princesses already have Zanshan officials, so let the princess hold another small election, but only for me, which is too much trouble. I'm afraid that some people in the DPRK and China will say that I am pampered and arrogant, and I will cause trouble for the crown princess when the time comes. ”

Jia Cong pouted and said: "Sister Lin hasn't figured out one thing yet, with the precedent of Sister Bao and the third sister, everyone who has vision in the court is looking forward to a few more praises beside Sister Lin." ”

Impeach? Inexistent.

Even if there is, they will be drowned by those officials who are looking forward to the future of their daughters.

This is the interest, the interest is current, not to mention that Daiyu just wants to choose a Zanshan, even if Daiyu wants to be the head of the 12 guards in Beijing, as long as his daughter can be an adjutant, some people in the court will also help Daiyu create a heroic image of uprooting the weeping willows and picking the king of Xiaoliang with a gun.

"Then try?"

"Try it~"

Daiyu was moved by Jia Cong's words, and after stopping in Shunyi County that night, she wrote a letter on the desk and ordered her soldiers to send it to the capital overnight.

……

There are 20,000 battalions of Zuotunwei stationed outside Shunyi County, and when Daiyu inspected the county middle school, Jia Cong took several personal guards and went to the camp of Zuotunwei in Yingzhou with a private visit.

Yingzhou Zuotunwei commander Guo Yuchuang and the Jia family are also old friends, his age is more than ten years younger than the pardon master, but from the point of view of the matter of the three real generals, he definitely belongs to the young Zhuang faction among the generals in the army.

"Big nephew, why did you come here? Did something happen to Kyori? Or, who are you going to beat, call your uncle and I will help you? ”

It's not that Guo Yuchuang has to be a crow's mouth, it's really Jia Cong's identity that is too special.

Yingzhou Zuotunwei does not belong to the sequence of the twelve guards of the Beijing camp, unless the emperor personally decrees, those old commanders in the capital are qualified to transfer him except for the British Duke Zhang Yue, and the golden order in Jia Cong's hand.

Guo Yuchuang had already received a report from the imperial court and knew that Jia Cong had now been removed from his official position.

Hearing the news of Jia Cong's sudden visit, Guo Yuchuang thought that something had happened in Beijing again, and this kid came to transfer troops with the emperor's secret decree.

Jia Cong gritted his teeth and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, Uncle Guo, you are really ...... My little nephew accompanied my sister Lin to inspect Gyeonggi and came to visit you in Daying. Look, the little nephew also brought you something delicious to Uncle Guo. ”

said that it was delicious, and the taste was indeed good, but in fact, it was all dried meat roasted by Jia Cong himself.

Guo Yuchuang invited Jia Cong into the camp, put a table in the big tent of the Chinese army, and ate meat and drank with Jia Cong.

Of course, after all, they are in the army, and the two of them must refrain and will not let go of drinking.

After a glass of wine, Jia Cong's face was ruddy.

Guo Yuchuang drove all the people in the camp out, and then asked, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Jia Cong hugged his fists and smiled: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Uncle Guo...... My nephew came here to tell Uncle Guo in advance, and after the autumn, Uncle Guo was afraid that he would go to the sea with his nephew and go to the country of Wa. ”

Boom~

"Oops!"

Hearing this, Guo Yuchuang not only did not feel the slightest bit unhappy and prevaricated, but was overjoyed, and almost smashed a big hole in the table in front of him with a punch.

"It's my turn to be Guo!"

Go to sea, or go to the Japanese country, so what else can you do? It must be a war!

Fighting a war represents military merit, and military merit represents waiting for a general.

Yingzhou Zuo Tunwei, the "stepmother" raised, finally has the opportunity to fight and make meritorious contributions.

Jia Cong put his finger to his mouth and made a boo.

Then he whispered: "Uncle Guo, this matter is currently only known to the Second Sage, the Prince, Zhang Shuai, Wang Ziteng, and you and me, and even my father does not know." This matter was kept secret for the time being, and the governor's office of the five armies was saved from fighting. ”

There is a war that gives people a headache, and when there is no war, there is a headache.

In the past two years, there has not been too much war between the DPRK and China, the north is stable, and there are only one or two opportunities for meritorious service in the army.

Jia Cong admonished the emperor to let Yingzhou Zuotunwei go to sea with him, but to put it bluntly, he was still selfish.

He can't mix up in Jingying anymore, and he can't go to the sixth rate of the East Palace, only the relationship between Zuotunwei and the Jia family in Yingzhou is the closest, so he asked the emperor to give this opportunity to make meritorious contributions to Guo Yuchuang.

Seeing that Guo Yuchuang had already suppressed his excitement, Jia Cong spoke again: "Yingzhou Zuotunwei is going to sea, and relying on the current armament is difficult to compare with the people in the hands of His Royal Highness King Jing. If we want to make meritorious contributions, we need to change to the latest weapons. My nephew has already told the Ministry of Industry that the most advanced artillery, muskets and all kinds of firearms will be dispatched one after another in the next few days, and Uncle Guo must let the soldiers train well and integrate the use of these equipment. ”

Guo Yuchuang's big fist thumped in his chest, baring his teeth and laughing.

"Don't worry, eldest nephew, don't dare to say anything else, the soldiers under our command will definitely get acquainted with the new guy, and they will definitely not hold back the eldest nephew!"

Having said that, Guo Yuchuang still whispered after swearing an oath: "But we are a big boss, and the people under our hands are all fighting men who can only pick knives, and the eldest nephew had better send more people to teach him well." ”

The corners of Jia Cong's mouth twitched, snorting, these old brothers of my father, why are they all like this.

"Okay, I will let the people of Donggong Liulu come over, just as the two armies are practicing martial arts, and we will learn and progress in the battle. In the name of martial arts, it is also good to avoid the eyes of others. ”

The matter of changing clothes has been decided, and the two talked about their plans to go to sea again.

But before he could say a few words, he heard Jia Shiyi outside the tent suddenly shout: "Third Master, there is an accident in the city, Miss Lin has sent someone to ask Third Master to come over as soon as possible." ”
