Chapter 387 Serving the Emperor is worse than Serving Wang Lin
Wang Lin smiled: "The former descendant of Cao Bin, King Wuhui of the Song Dynasty. The Cao family was a noble family for generations and was glorious. The Cao family had a daughter named Cao Xiuer, who was only 28 years old, had a fair character, and was beautiful..."
Wang Lin did not say the last two sentences, and this woman is also good at riding and shooting.
Han Yan was stunned and suddenly said, "Prince, is it Cao Xiu'er who was rejected by the prince a few days ago when the Cao family wanted to offer the prince's mansion as a female official?"
Wang Lin nodded: "It's her."
Han Yan: “…”
Han Yan thought to herself, husband, what do you mean? The Cao family wants to cling to the royal palace and take the initiative to offer their daughter to you. The woman you look down on is the woman you want to marry me instead?
This is really...
Wang Lin glanced at Han Yan and said calmly: "After that being said, I have nothing to do with the daughter of the Cao family, and I have never seen her before. Moreover, outsiders don't know about this, this does not affect her marriage with Han Ting, right?"
Han Yan: “…”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Wang Lin was too lazy to explain, so he opened the skylight and said: "Yan'er, I want to resolve the chronic disease of civil and military evil from the side. Han Ting is my inner brother. The Cao family is my respected family of martial arts. If so
Can...you understand."
Han Yan then smiled bitterly: "My husband... You are really... My brother is a newcomer to the imperial examination and a Hanlin poet. If he asked him to marry the daughter of Wu Xun, it would probably affect his future, and the family might not be
I agree that my family has never married a military general's family for a hundred years."
"Influence the future?" Wang Lindun sneered: "After marrying a martial arts honor, you can affect your future? Could it be that his future is tied to the waistband of a woman?"
Han Yan blushed and said angrily: "My husband... what strange things are you saying!"
Wang Lin laughed: "I'm just an example! Who said that your Han family does not intermarry with military generals? Then, am I not a military general?"
Han Yan blushed and lowered her head: "I am a woman, different. Besides, my family believed that my husband had a bright future, so that's why..."
Wang Lin remained silent.
Han Yan thought Wang Lin was angry, so she lowered her figure and smiled: "My husband, you have a good intention, but the gap between civil and military officials has been separated for hundreds of years, so I am afraid it will not be changed so easily."
Wang Lin sneered: "For all generations of the Song Dynasty, there have been many people who marry Wuxun's daughters. For example, the Cao family once had a daughter who was Emperor Renzong. Could it be that Wuxun's daughters can't be able to marry the world?
Be the wife of your Han family?"
Wang Lin's words are actually a bit harsh.
Han Yan's beautiful eyes turned red. Of course, she also realized her man's firm attitude in this matter. After thinking for a while, she hesitated and said: "How about you, let me ask about my family's opinions?"
Wang Lin nodded slowly: "Well, Yan'er, go and ask. However, I have a kind intention and can't force it. You can ask Han Ting, just forget it if he doesn't want to, just pretend I didn't say it."
After saying that, Wang Lin got up and left.
After leaving Han Yan's courtyard gate, he felt ashamed in his heart.
This seemed to force the Han family to bow their heads, and the attitude towards Yan'er just now was a bit like that.
But there is no way to do it. …
The Han family is his in-laws. If he becomes emperor in the future, Han Yan will be the queen and the Han family will be the queen.
It is actually the most appropriate for the Hou tribe to take the lead in breaking the barriers of civil and military affairs.
As for what affects the future... he believes that the Han family will definitely understand whether Han Ting's future is tied to him or to a woman.
As soon as he returned to the central study room, Wang Lin directly welcomed him out of the front yard when he heard Ma Kuo coming to see him.
Seeing that the horse expanded and worshipped, Wang Lin smiled slightly and immediately helped him up and said, "Brother Ma, you don't have to do this. You and I are old friends. Please go to the study to talk."
"Why would the last general dare to be rude in front of you?" Ma Kuo insisted on bowing.
The two of them talked and laughed and headed towards the study.
Ma Kuo is now the deputy commander of the Shenwu Army and has a military general. But in fact, Wang Lin knew that Ma Kuo was versatile in civil and military affairs, and was also proficient in diplomacy, and had strong comprehensive abilities.
Wang Lin felt that he urgently needed a comprehensive assistant around him, who was inclined to the government, connected with the local government, the court center, and the outside world, but could not know anything about military affairs to assist him in handling daily affairs.
Otherwise, it won’t take long to rely on Yan Qing alone, and Yan Qing will be exhausted at work.
He wants to give Yan Qing a model worker medal.
In fact, it is time to establish and improve the internal official system of the Yanwang Mansion.
He has now fallen in love with three people, one is Ma Kuo, who can serve as the chief secretary and director of the Yan Palace (the Grand Marshal of the World Military and Horses) as the deputy envoy of Hebei Road Transportation.
There are also brothers Zhang Bofen and Zhang Zhongxiong, who serve as the commander of the Yan Prince's Mansion.
The other candidates are being selected by Li Gang and Zong Ze from various yamen in the court.
Because Wang Lin would be in Hebei for a long time in the future and command the troops in the world remotely, his Yan Wang Mansion in Hebei was actually a combination of the Privy Council and the Grand Marshal's Mansion.
This is equivalent to a small court, requiring at least hundreds of people to be organized.
Wang Lin decided next month, in early November of the second year of Xuanhe in the Song Dynasty, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan agreed to withdraw their troops and leave Beijing to Zhending Prefecture, Hebei.
Of course, at that time, Zhong Shidao's Western Army and Yue Fei's Eastern Army (Fuhu Army) will send troops to supervise and "escort" the Jin soldiers out of the Hedong and Hebei borders.
After hearing that Wang Lin had entrusted such an important task, Ma Kuo was naturally moved and made every promise.
Wang Lin and Ma Kuochang talked for a long time and decided on many things.
Ma Kuo was about to lead 10,000 Shenwu Army and many civil officials to Zhending, Hebei half a month in advance to build Wang Lin's Grand Marshal's Mansion.
Wang Lin personally sent Ma Kuo out of the Yan Prince's Mansion.
At this time, Han Yan's princess's ceremonial guard, carriages and guards, had left the Yan Prince's Mansion and went to the Han family.
The setting sun is dusk and the autumn wind is sweeping.
The main gate of the Han family in the capital was open, and dozens of core members of the Han family, including Han Jiayan and Han Shu, were listed on both sides of the front door to welcome him.
Although Han Yan is behind the Han family, Han Yan's current identity is Princess Yan.
For the Han family, this is very likely to be the queen who will be in the future, with a high position and respect.
Therefore, when Han Yan returned home to visit relatives, all the elders of the Han family came out to welcome him.
Han Yan sat in Princess Yan's luxurious carriage, with the guard of honor squads all over the street, and she felt a little moved.
If she was an ordinary wife of the Song Dynasty, the Han family would not have been able to go out to welcome her together. But her husband is now infinitely close to that supreme position. …
Seeing that the grandparents, parents and elders of her parents outside the car window were so respectful and treated each other with a national gift, Han Yan's mentality had some invisible changes.
Since the Han family has received endless glory because of their husband, is it natural to make some contributions to their husband's overall situation and cause?
Besides, strictly speaking, this is not a sacrifice, right?
Han Yan, with Yicui and Siqin, got off the carriage and ceremonial guard, and then entered the Han family's Rongzheng Hall.
Then he met Han Jiayan and his wife, their parents and elders as their granddaughter, and greeted other Han family members, such as her brother Han Ting.
Han Yan sat on the right side of Han Jiayan and his wife. This was the most honorable guest. Even her parents, Han Shu and Xue, could only be ranked below.
Qi Guo took the lead and smiled: "Yan'er, why do you have the time to go back to your parents' home today?"
Han Yan turned slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her pretty face: "Regarding my grandmother's words, in addition to visiting grandparents and parents' high-end homes today, there is something I really want to discuss with my family."
Qi State and Han Jiayan looked at each other, and they were a little strange.
Han Yan had also returned to her parents' home to visit her, but she quietly took Yicui and Siqin into the house through the back door.
But today, she was wearing the imperial edict and uniform of Princess Yan, and had a guard of honor and chariot and horses, and also brought more than a dozen female officials of the ceremonial celebrating her troops. It was obviously not an ordinary visit to relatives.
Xue said in surprise: "Yan'er, what's the matter?"
Han Yan smiled without saying a word, and suddenly turned her head and looked at Han Ting, who was elegant and gentle brother sitting under Han Shu and his wife.
She was silent for a while and smiled and said, "Brother, he was successful at a young age. Now, he has entered the Hanlin area under the name of Tanhua. He is also a famous official in the world."
Han Ting's mouth twitched, but he couldn't help laughing: "Girl, what kind of famous minister am I? If I can win the Tanhualang, it is probably the official who gave my brother-in-law the face. Besides..."
Han Ting suddenly remembered another thing, and his face became even more strange: "November ago, I had a drink with several people from Jiangnan in the same year. They said that my brother-in-law was pretending to be my name in Hangzhou that day, and published more than ten famous works in a row, and went to Jiangnan talented women.
Zhu Shuzhen’s courtship…It’s true that it’s Han Ting’s name, which is so famous all over the world, but what does it have to do with me?”
Qi State was stunned: "There is such a thing?"
The Han family all looked at Han Yan.
Han Yan said calmly: "There is another reason for the Zhu sister's affairs. But what my brother said, the official family ordered the elder brother to be a Tanhualang, which is indeed related to my husband. Including the elder brother who got Huiyuan in the previous interview, he also belonged to Li.
He is very fond of the prince because he looks at him. Of course, his brother is also talented."
Han Ting smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's right. I know it very well for my brother, so I still benefited from my sister's fortune. As for this Hanlin Ci minister... Actually..."
Han Ting wanted to speak but stopped.
Han Yan's heart moved: "Brother, please say something."
"Although the Hanlin name is noble, it is just a false reputation. In the court, military and national affairs are better than daily government affairs, and the country is in trouble. I think it is better to follow my brother-in-law to the front line of Hebei, or be a minister of a government office or the central government of the King of Yan.
Subordination and doing some practice are always much better than staying in the Hanlin Academy to do some writing and writing." …
As soon as Han Ting said this, Han Shu immediately scolded: "Nonsense! You have been promoted to the imperial examination and entered the Hanlin area. In the future, you can become a minister of the six ministries and become the minister of the six ministries, and then be transferred.
You can enter the court and shine on the lintel!
My Korean Prime Minister, now you are all honor and disgrace. How can you ignore your bright future and leave it as a member? Isn’t this going to waste the foundation and chase the end?"
Han Shu's reprimand made Han Ting speechless.
In fact, if it were normal, he wouldn't dare say this. But today his sister came, he felt that it was his chance.
He really didn't want to stay in the capital as a servant, accompanying him to eat, chant, and painting, and was known as the third escort.
This is the current situation of the Hanlin in the capital.
Han Ting hesitated for a while, and still plucked up his courage: "My father, the reason why Hanlin poets are noble is that they are close ministers of the emperor, but now... his son goes to the palace every day to recite poems and paintings with the officials, which is actually quite good.
It's so boring."
Han Ting's words are actually a bit meaningful.
Hanlin is still Hanlin, but the emperor is not the emperor of the past.
The Hanlin people often became prime ministers because the emperor was close to the emperor and there were many people who taught the prince.
But today... what is the future for me to accompany Zhao Ji to eat, drink and have fun?
The princes are all students of the King of Yan. Those princes and daughters are surrounded by the King of Yan.
After Han Ting said this, Han Shu was shocked.
He suddenly realized the key to the problem. The current Song Dynasty court is no longer the same...
Even Han Jiayan and his wife were suddenly moved.
Yes, serving the emperor is not as good as serving Wang Lin?!
