Emperor Qing reviewed memorials submitted from various places all day long, sometimes even late into the night.
Some officials eloquently write hundreds or even thousands of words, which can almost be condensed into one sentence: Your Majesty, how are you?
Hello mom!
Every time after painstakingly reading a long memorial like this, Emperor Qing suppressed his anger and could only reply with three words at the end: I'm fine.
Some officials were even more outrageous. They reported that it was raining there every three days, asked if it had rained in Shangjing, and asked if he wanted to eat mangoes and play with iron-eating beasts. The cubs of iron-eating beasts are very cute.
There are also some officials who accuse others without considering the reasons. For example, Wang Chun from Yangzhou said that Lin Ruhai, the salt inspector appointed by the imperial court, did nothing but asked about the thin horse all day long.
The key point is that there is a secret medicine in Lin Ruhai's home, which can strengthen the kidneys and the body even if she sings and sings every night. She can control five women every night, seven in and seven out, and beat others to the point where they abandon their helmets and flee in panic. Not to mention, the description is clear and logical, as if
Just like the real thing.栔
Is there such a medicine? Why doesn't he know about it? And Lin Ruhai is just a weak scholar, how can he have such ability?
Emperor Qing casually wrote on it with a red pen: What the hell!
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the commander of Jinwu Guard Yangzhou, Lin Luofeng, wants to see you."
"Xuan!"
"I pay my respects to your majesty, may your majesty be safe." Lin Luofeng came in, knelt down on one knee and bowed.
"I'm in peace.
Tell me, how is the salt affairs in Yangzhou?" Emperor Qing asked casually while reading the memorial.
Commander Lin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, according to the investigation and summary by Mr. Lin, the Censor, the deficit in the accounts of Lianghuai Salt Affairs can be said to be shocking.
Moreover, local officials from top to bottom are shielding each other and colluding with each other. Mr. Lin has not even seen the bill so far, and he has been assassinated and plotted many times. If it were not for the secret medicine and the protection of his subordinates, Lin Ruhai and his family would have died long ago.
underground."
Emperor Qing nodded and said with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work. Let me tell you how much money those big rats embezzled from the imperial court, and what the rumors about Lin Ruhai's relationship under the bed are about."
Lin Luofeng was not very excited. He had grown up with the emperor and had everything he should have. His only goal was to serve His Majesty.
If you are lucky, you may be able to enjoy your old age or earn wealth for your children and grandchildren. If you are unlucky, you may become a scapegoat for being withdrawn.
Although Lin Luofeng had already expected this result, he was willing to do so.
We live this life, why not live it more wonderfully? When His Majesty takes full control of power in the future, who will dare to stand in front of him and speak loudly?
He took out an account book from his arms and handed it to the eunuch serving next to him. Commander Lin explained: "This is a summary of Mr. Lin's private accounts with the help of various small merchants. It is estimated that in the past twenty years, the total account deficit of the Huaihuai Salt Industry will be almost the same."
There are more than 20 million taels."
After hearing twenty million taels, Emperor Qingjia paused and raised his head, as if he didn't hear something clearly: "Tell me, how much?"
"More than twenty million taels!" Commander Lin repeated again.
Emperor Qing threw the ink pen on the table and walked back and forth several times.
Where is my knife?
After a while, he calmed down.
"The rats and moths are a great danger to the country. They must be punished, they must be punished!" At the end of the sentence, the emperor's eyes began to turn red.
Is it easy for him to be an emperor?
Between river management, disaster relief, and border military expenses, the national treasury was in deficit every year, and the inner treasury was still controlled by the Supreme Emperor. In the end, he only ate four dishes a meal, his dragon robes were all mended, and all the maids serving in the harem were taken care of by him.
Give out more than half of it.
As a result, in Yangzhou, more than 20 million taels were secretly stolen from him? That is the total income of an entire country for more than two years.
After taking the account book, Emperor Qing flipped it over and smashed it directly on the table with a bang.
"Your Majesty, calm down, the dragon body is important!" Manager Chen, who was serving next to him, quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
After a while, Commander Lin saw that his forehead was red and almost bleeding.
Emperor Qing glanced at him impatiently, kicked him over, and cursed with a smile: "What are you knocking for? I'm not dead yet, get out and see the imperial doctor!"
"Hey, thank you, Your Majesty." Manager Chen stood up and rolled out, bumping into the door and letting out an ouch.
"Haha ~ this guy!" Emperor Qing was also amused by him.
Commander Lin also wanted to laugh, but tried hard to hold it in. After a moment, he thought of something and his heart sank.
I have long heard that Chief Chen Fei is very popular with the emperor and controls almost everything in the harem.
Looking at it today, it can be said that this person has almost completely figured out the Holy Spirit's thoughts. In a short period of time, a few actions not only allowed the Holy Spirit to adjust his mood, but also made the Holy Spirit feel sorry for him.
Although there is no dignity, the Sacred Heart is the most important thing in front of the Holy One.
Dignity? As long as the Holy One takes care of you, everyone else will give you dignity! 攔
Emperor Qing returned to his seat, looked at the account book, and shook his head. Over the years he had been the emperor, he had seen too many such giant rats, but this time it was just bigger.
"Tell me, what has Lin Ruhai been doing in Yangzhou these days?"
"yes!"
The Jinwu Guards were responsible for intelligence. Lin Luofeng went out to protect them, and of course they also collected intelligence.
"Your Majesty, Lin Ruhai..."
After hearing the introduction from his subordinates, Emperor Qing looked at the memorials on the table. If he didn't finish reviewing today's memorials, he might be called over by the Supreme Emperor to criticize them the next day.
Without military power in his hands, he couldn't even be strong-willed when speaking.
"There is a legend later that Lin Ruhai's family has a secret medicine, and the five women stay at night, day and night, and they can inspect the salt field the next day, and ask with their colleagues about one of the three unique things in Yangzhou, the 'mouth secret': Yang Xiaobao..."
Hearing this, Emperor Qing was startled, his heart moved, and he raised his hand to interrupt Commander Lin: "Wait a minute, what's going on with the Lin family's secret medicine?"
Since taking the throne in his twenties, he is now almost thirty years old.
When you were young, you may have been very interested in beautiful women, and the princesses and princesses who paid tribute to you from the prairie tribes had their own unique characteristics. Some were born with unique fragrances, and some were born with a long life.
However, the more he saw and understood, the more he gradually became tired of that kind of thing. Especially as he got older, every time it ended, he was physically and mentally exhausted, and he could even clearly feel that his life was disappearing.
As an emperor, there are naturally some tiger and wolf medicines in the palace, but the imperial doctor said that those medicines were actually overdrawing his life, and he did not dare to take them.
He finally sat on the supreme throne, but if he died on a woman's belly, wouldn't that be a laughing stock for all eternity?
He wants to leave his name in history and become a famous king through the ages!
Hearing the Holy Master's inquiry about the secret medicine, Commander Lin blushed. After hesitation, he took out a jade bottle from his arms and presented it.
"Your Majesty, because I was curious, I also asked Mr. Lin for a few pills. Then with a cautious attitude to verify the authenticity of this medicine, I also found a ragged woman whose father was gambling and whose family was poor and needed financial support to test it.
Ichiban.”
"Oh, how was the effect?" Emperor Qing became interested.
This man only pays attention to so many things in his life, and most of them consist of two words: fun.
Commander Lin did not hesitate and said frankly: "Your Majesty knows that I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child. I don't know anything else. I only know how to work hard, and then do one thing in front of my face and another behind my back. As for the specific effect, I am not sure.
But afterwards, the poor girl not only did not ask for the money from the humble minister, but also gave me two hundred coins. She even wanted to redeem herself and marry me as my concubine.
Moreover, after three consecutive times, my subordinate’s skill has not deteriorated, but has actually improved a bit.”
Emperor Qing:???
After pondering for a long time, Emperor Qing hesitated.
In his opinion, as long as this emperor is like the Supreme Emperor and indulges in auspiciousness, elixirs, Qihuang, and spiritual practice, he will not be far from being a faint king.
But if the medicine was really so miraculous, to be honest, he would also like to try it. Of course, it's not because he's a womanizer, he's just out of curiosity.
Is this medicine really that powerful?
I spent a long time meditating, taking two full breaths.
"Don't take tonics randomly. Bring the medicine over and I'll send someone to test its efficacy for you." Emperor Qing ordered.
Lin Luofeng:......
After waiting for a while, Emperor Qing looked up, a little amused: "Why, you still can't bear to part with it? I am rich all over the world, what kind of medicine do you want? If it works, I will order Lin Ruhai to send dozens more pills, and you will get half of it."
Emperor Qing was very generous.
After hearing this, Commander Lin quickly handed it to the newly arrived eunuch: "Your Majesty, this medicine is so effective, and the medicinal materials used in it are naturally difficult to find in the world. According to Master Lin, ten of the medicinal materials are more than a hundred years old.
Several flavors, and even one flavor of ambergris have now disappeared.
These pills were handed down from his ancestors."
"Oh?" Emperor Qing became interested. After the eunuch finished checking, he took the medicine bottle, looked at it for a while, and opened it.
A strange fragrance instantly filled the mouth and nose, refreshing my spirits and making me feel much more relaxed.
"Good medicine!"
…
Jia Mansion, dinner.
Realizing that everyone was looking at her daughter wrongly, Jia Min smiled and explained: "This Lele is more important than the lifeblood of my family, so in our family we usually eat next to him first."
Hearing this, Jia Mu felt even more disdainful.
Losing interest in playing with things, Lin Ruhai is still a scholar and is addicted to raising cats.
As a court official, it is his business to report to the Holy King and bring peace to the people. Looking at it this way, Lin Ruhai will not be able to go far in the officialdom!
It's a pity that I still tried my best to marry my daughter to him at that time.
Oops, I made a mistake!
Before Jia Mu could teach her a lesson, she heard footsteps outside, and the maid came in and said with a smile, "Baoyu is here!"
Before the maid finished speaking, a young master came in. He was wearing a purple gold crown, his eyebrows were tied with two dragons grabbing gold to wipe his forehead, his eyebrows were like ink paintings, and his face was like peach petals, like a woman.
When Daiyu saw it, she thought to herself: "It's so strange. This boy looks so weak. Why can't he feel like he can't even withstand his own punch?"
I saw this Baoyu greeting Jia Mu, and Jia Mu ordered: "Go see your aunt."
Baoyu quickly bowed: "Aunt Lin, Sister Lin."
After saying hello, Baoyu looked at Daiyu who was still feeding the cat, and said with a smile: "I have seen this sister before."
Jia Mu said angrily, "But that's nonsense again. How have you ever seen him?"
The old lady never said any harsh words to her beloved grandson.
Baoyu smiled and said: "Although I have never met him before, he looks kind to me, and in my heart he is an old acquaintance. Today we just want to meet him again after a long distance, so it's not wrong."
Jia Mu smiled and said: "Better, better, if so, we will be more harmonious."
Baoyu then walked up to Daiyu and sat down. He looked at her carefully and asked, "Has my sister ever studied?"
Daiyu said: "I read some."
Baoyu asked again: "What are the two words of my sister's honorary name?"
Daiyu then told her her name. Baoyu asked her name again. Daiyu said, "No word."
Baoyu smiled and said: "I give my sister a wonderful word, none more wonderful than the word '馢馦'." Tanchun asked where it came from.
Baoyu said: "The Comprehensive Examination of Ancient and Modern Figures says: 'There is a stone named Dai in the West, which can replace the ink of a thrush.' In addition, Sister Lin's eyebrows are frowning, so using these two words is not a good idea!"
Tanchun smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's your fabrication again."
Baoyu laughed and said: "Except for the Four Books, there are too many fabrications. Is it just me who made them up?"
Then he asked Daiyu: "Is there any jade?"
Everyone was puzzled by his words, so Daiyu thought that he had jade, so she asked me if I had jade, and replied: "I don't have that. I think that jade is a rare thing, how can everyone have it."
After Baoyu heard this, he immediately became insane. He took off the spiritual jade from his waist, raised his hand, and wanted to throw it away. He cursed: "What a rare thing. You can't even judge whether a person is high or low, and you still say he can't channel spirits."
Where’s the spirit? I don’t want this trouble anymore!”
This scared everyone and rushed to pick up the jade.
Jia Mu stepped forward and hugged Baoyu anxiously and said, "You evildoer! It's easy to beat or scold someone when you're angry, so why bother throwing that lifeblood away!"
Baoyu's face was full of tears and she cried: "I don't have any sisters at home. I only have one. I think it's boring. Now that I have such a fairy-like sister, I don't have one. I know this is not a good thing."
After hearing this, everyone was a little confused. What does this mean?
Jia Min stood up, stepped forward, pushed Jia Mu away, grabbed the jade, and slapped her with her hand.
"Pa~"
Jia Baoyu was slapped and spun three times, and fell directly to the ground, with stars in his eyes and dizziness in his head.
Looking down at his nephew on the ground, Jia Min cursed: "The Jia family has three hereditary princes, and the princes are prominent in the family. As a descendant of the Jia family, you are not enterprising, but you are also stubborn and willful. What you do makes the old lady worry and suffer at such an old age."
, do you think you did the right thing?
Moreover, look at the clothes on your body, you are wearing gold, silver and jade, but compared to those people outside, except for your clothes, how are you better than them?
Are you good-looking? Or are you physically weaker than them? Or are you not as good as others in studying or practicing martial arts?
Useless stuff!"
At this moment, Jia Min stood in the middle hall, with a formidable and domineering aura. The girls looked like they were facing a man-eating lion, and they were all so frightened that they could not breathe.
Jia Baoyu lay on the ground and sobbed, and was scolded so much that he dared not speak out again.
In the past, with Jia Mu taking care of him, he could do whatever he wanted, but looking at this situation, it seems that Auntie is not afraid of grandma!
After a while, Jia's mother cried and stepped forward to help Baoyu up. She came forward to take a closer look and touched the swollen face. She felt very distressed. Then she turned around and yelled at Jia Min.
"You crazy girl, why do you attack your nephew as soon as you get home? He is my precious grandson, do you still want to teach him?"
Jia Min shook his head. How could a child be taught well if he was so doting on him?
