Yinzhen didn't expect Ling Ruo to say such words. After thinking about it, his anger subsided a lot, but he still felt a little knotty in his heart. "Even so, you shouldn't say anything about such a big matter. What if I
If I hadn't discovered this, wouldn't I have been deceived by Tong Jia for the rest of my life?"
Hearing this, Ling Ruo knew that Yinzhen had intended to forgive herself. She was determined at that moment, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. She said sincerely: "What the fourth master taught me is that after thinking about my life, I realized that there was something wrong with it."
I didn’t think it over carefully, but fortunately everything went as planned and no trouble occurred.”
Yinzhen snorted softly and said: "Finally, you still know the importance of it, that's all, let's forget it this time, but it won't be the same next time, but you must tell me everything, and you must not hide anything anymore."
"I will remember Fourth Master's lesson." Ling Ruo burst into tears of gratitude, but a sigh quietly passed through her heart. Did she hide anything? I'm afraid this life will be impossible.
"Okay, get up. You're still pregnant with the child. You're kneeling on the ground and catching a cold." After all, Yinzhen still cares about Ling Ruo and the child in her belly. The reason why he was so strict just now is because he wanted to
Let's see what Ling Ruo planned to hide from her and what she was hiding. Fortunately, she knew the importance and didn't make the same mistake again and again.
Nala, on the other hand, had given birth to a child herself. She didn't even know that a woman was pregnant. As soon as she heard that Tong Jia was pregnant, she hurriedly reported it without checking carefully. She was really getting older and going back.
, she was so confused. Although she was not to blame for Tong Jia's incident this time, she did have unshirkable responsibility for the fact that the family was being fooled by mermaids and pretending to be the emperor's heir.
"Thank you, Fourth Master." After Ling Ruo stood up, Yinzhen told her a few more things she should pay attention to during pregnancy. He has had several children over the years. Although several have passed away, he has experienced a lot after all. Knowing
Pregnant women should avoid many things, especially diet.
"Tomorrow, I will ask the kitchen to change your meals to light ones. Then don't eat anything that is too greasy or greasy. Also, do not move around with needlework. I will leave it to the people below to prepare as much clothing material as the child needs.
, if they dare to neglect it, you can tell me."
"I thank the prince on behalf of the child." Ling Ruo smiled softly. She could feel that Yinzhen sincerely cared for the child in her belly. Before the child took shape, she had already imagined a lot for him.
After talking for a while, Ling Ruo carefully probed: "Fourth Master, can I ask you something?"
"What is it? Tell me about it?" Yinzhen asked while blowing on the bird's nest porridge that was just served. In the past few years since Ling Ruo entered the mansion, it was rare for him to ask for anything. Now that he suddenly said this, it really made him feel a little embarrassed.
Very curious.
"It's about Li Wei." Ling Ruo considered his expression while looking at him: "Li Wei is indispensable for being able to understand Tong Jia's conspiracy this time. Although the prince has forgiven her sin, many people in the mansion have
He said he betrayed his master and was an unfaithful and unjust slave."
Yinzhen took a mouthful of the cooled bird's nest porridge and put it to Ling Ruo's lips, watched her swallow it and then asked: "Li Wei told you these words?
Ling Ruo shook his head and said: "Li Wei is not willing to say this to me, but these words are spread everywhere in the house, and you will hear it if you pay attention. Foolish loyalty is not advisable, not to mention that Li Wei just did what he should
What he did was definitely wrong, but it's a pity that those people in the house who don't know the importance of it bullied him in different ways to show his shame."
These words are half true and half false. It is true that some people secretly humiliate and abuse Li Wei, but when it comes to bullying, hehe, Li Wei has never been a master who lets others do anything to him. But this matter just made Ling Ruo use it to make a fuss and plead for Li Wei.
A bright future.
"You want me to deal with those people who make trouble for nothing?" Yinzhen had actually guessed what Ling Ruo was thinking, but he just didn't say it on purpose.
When Ling Ruo saw that he insisted on clarifying the truth himself, she had no choice but to say: "No. I think that instead of blocking everyone's mouth, it would be better to keep Li Wei away from the place of right and wrong." He had already said this, but
Yinzhen remained silent, and she couldn't help but said angrily: "Don't the fourth master have a lot of fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing? Just let Li Wei farm for the fourth master."
Yinzhen was amused by her last childish words. He put down Ling Ruo's half-eaten bird's nest porridge and joked: "I don't have any objection. I'm just afraid that you, the master, will come to settle accounts with me afterwards.
I said that I was a good person, so I took him to take care of those acres of land."
Ling Ruo saw that he was still there to enjoy herself, she curled her lips and refused to let go, "Li Wei is also the slave of the fourth master. The fourth master is willing to give up. How dare I bring trouble to the fourth master? Li Wei will take his own life."
It’s not good.”
Yinzhen laughed dumbly, "Why do these words sound so sour? I won't tease you anymore. I have also considered Li Wei. He is smart and capable, and has a good brain. What is rare is that he can also read and write, and do...
This slave is indeed aggrieved, no wonder you want to promote her."
"So, Fourth Master is willing to give him a chance?" Ling Ruo's eyes lit up and she stared at Yinzhen closely.
Yinzhen rubbed his newly shaved chin and muttered: "He is no worse than Zhang Cheng in all aspects. He should be able to accomplish something. Anyway, since you have already spoken, I will give him a chance. Next time
There is an exam in the Yue Imperial College. If he does well in the exam, I will give him a rank of eighth-grade county magistrate like Zhang Cheng; if he does not do well in the exam, then the matter will be revealed and Ruoer, you will never be allowed to do it again.
How about mentioning it?"
Ling Ruo only thought about it briefly before agreeing. This was a great opportunity for Li Wei to get ahead. The reason why Yinzhen deliberately wanted to add an exam was simply to take a more comprehensive look at Li Wei's character and knowledge. After all, he was not
Like Zhang Cheng, who has been waiting around since he was a child.
After Ling Ruo told Li Wei the news, he secretly made a fist and swore that he would get good grades in the exam and live up to his master's hard work.
In the next month, Li Wei worked hard on his books, and there was often light in the room during the third watch. Fortunately, he would flip through the books when he had nothing to do, so he was not completely abandoned.
In April, under the guidance of Yinzhen, Li Wei took the exam together with the group of imperial students. After the exam papers came out, Yinzhen was quite satisfied with the several strategies he mentioned in the paper, but the classics and history part was weak.
A little bit, but that doesn't matter. When you are appointed as an official, the most important thing is your own ability, and you can slowly make up for it in other places.
Yinzhen fulfilled his promise, filled Li Wei's vacancy in the official department, and was promoted to the eighth rank of Jiangyin County Magistrate. This was originally a happy thing, but seeing the day of leaving Beijing approaching, Li Wei
Wei himself was a little hesitant. Taking advantage of an opportunity to wait for Ling Ruo to have a meal, he said that he wanted to wait until Ling Ruo gave birth to the child safely before leaving. This way he would feel more at ease.
