In fact, before setting off, Lin Zhao had already made arrangements to transport many of his family belongings to the capital. He only had some spare things left, and loaded them with three large fortune ships with a deep draft. Obviously, these spare things were
There are a lot of things.
There are a total of fifty-eight servants in the three lucky boats. In addition, there is also the great housekeeper Lin Yang, who has brought four or five smart and capable servants to Beijing to deal with the newly purchased properties, houses and shops; the others, except for himself and his sister,
Those who wanted to serve and were willing to follow were taken to the capital by Lin Fu, the second housekeeper.
This is the steward of the outer house. As for the inner house, Lin Zhao specially invited two respected nuns from the palace who were mature, shrewd, and transparent. One was named Rong and the other was Li.
Come to teach Daiyu how to deal with the affairs of the back house.
Fortunately, Daiyu Bingxue is smart, can draw inferences from one instance, and gets started quickly.
In addition, because Lin Zhao came to Beijing on orders, he brought many policemen with him.
In addition to Li Long, there were two yamen, Gu Haiquan and Han Wenchong.
According to the emperor's decree, since Lin Zhao became the commander of the Jinyi Guards, he must have close confidants around him. These two yamen were his assistants, so he basically became a member of the Jinyi Guards Qianhu.
These two dandies were originally just in the government office, but they were fake and powerful, but they had no official or position. To put it simply, they were white. However, they did not expect that after following Lin Zhao for a few years, they became a member of the imperial guard. Of course, they were grateful and had more faith in Lin Zhao.
.
In addition, Lin Zhao also has more than 200 "household servants" whom Lin Zhao spent four years training. Those who will become the royal guards in the future will not ride on these three lucky boats, but
He secretly boarded other boats to follow the three lucky boats and also used them to protect the lucky boats.
Beijing, Qinzheng Hall.
Qinzheng Hall was the private office of Emperor Xiaode, not far from Wenyuan Pavilion. He was sitting inside, slowly reading through the secrets, and occasionally asking a question or two to the figure standing in the shadow next to him, etc.
When I saw the news about Lin Zhao going to Beijing, I couldn't help but smile: "Our philanthropic boy has finally gone to Beijing. I am very curious about this Lin Zhao."
Really curious.
This young man helped the emperor get so much money, but he only made one request to the emperor, which was to ask the emperor to send him two capable, prestigious and good-natured nuns to guide his sister Daiyu.
This request was actually made by Lin Zhao, not Lin Ruhai, let alone Jia Min, which made Emperor Xiaode very curious.
Of course, it's just out of curiosity.
Emperor Xiaode was the emperor, and he only paid attention to the affairs of his subordinates because of the emperor's consideration. Naturally, he didn't take these trivial matters to heart, but he agreed to his subordinates' requests.
"In addition to his own servants, how many brave men did Lin Zhao bring to the capital?"
Emperor Xiaode asked.
"Your Majesty, according to the news from the Dragon Guards, Lin Zhao brought a total of 236 people to Beijing. According to the inspection of the people below, these people are all innocent, wise and brave. When Lin Zhao was in Yangzhou, he taught them every day
Literary and martial arts skills should be assessed regularly and judged by the ministers, how many talents there will be."
The figure said.
"Well, it's consistent with what he said in his secret message. It shows that he is loyal."
Emperor Xiaode commented casually and said: "Speaking of which, Lin Zhao is quite capable. He can both make money and cultivate talents. I have to think carefully about how to use it. If it is used in the Ministry of Household Affairs, there is no need to worry about the lack of treasury.
, if used around me, it will also be helpful in suppressing other people, what suggestions do you have?"
The last sentence was about that figure.
"Your Majesty has decreed that I dare not speak nonsense." The figure resolutely refused to take the blame.
"Haha." Emperor Xiaode was shocked: "Here comes someone!"
The person who came in was naturally Dai Quan, Emperor Xiaode's chief chamberlain.
"I remember that we confiscated several houses last year, and one of them was the former Duke Ji's house. Is the title deed of this house still with the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
"Your Majesty, that's right." Dai Quan replied immediately, almost without pause.
With such extensive knowledge and knowledge, it is no wonder that he can win the trust of the emperor.
Emperor Xiaode waved his hand: "I will give this house to Zhongxiao Zijue Lin Zhao. He is the Qilin son of the Lin family and my Qianliju. It can't be too shabby. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs take care of it."
Dai Quan's heart trembled, and he immediately nodded and said: "Old slave, I obey the order."
He naturally knew that the house was the house of a hero. Its scale was no smaller than that of the Rongguo Mansion, and it had been listed in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for many years. Many people wanted to buy it, but the emperor was never sure, and he did not expect that the emissary would be left to Lin Zhao.
This Lin Zhao is probably even more humble than his father.
Not to mention that the Ministry of Internal Affairs began to tidy up the mansion in a hurry. It is just that Lin Zhao had a hard work all the way. I will not describe them one by one. But when they arrived at the dock in the capital, something happened again. But it turned out that the Jia family sent a few servants.
I came to pick up my cousin and my cousin.
…
Lin Zhao looked at the women and young men in red and green clothes and gold and silver in silence, without feeling the Jia family's attention at all.
There are just a few arrogant minions, and an ordinary oil truck is really pitiful.
If you get on this car, I'm afraid you will be criticized privately by the slaves!
hehe.
Lin Zhao said with a half-smile, "My Lin family also has a house in the capital, so I won't disturb my grandfather's house. After the arrangements are made, my brother and sister will go and pay their respects to the old lady."
The leading lady smiled and said: "Uncle Lin, the old lady has been looking forward to it every day since she received the letter. The uncle and the girl are kind-hearted and would like to go back to the house with us to pay their respects to the old lady as a filial piety."
Lin Zhao ignored such a woman at all. Aunt Rong, who was beside Lin Daiyu, stepped forward and said to the women: "My young lady is tired from traveling and traveling, so naturally she has to go home and rest first, and wait until she has recovered enough."
I'll go visit the old lady again when I feel refreshed. Please come back, please."
Grandma Rong's demeanor and tone of voice were completely aloof, looking down at the ants, which directly calmed several women, making their backs feel cold, and they didn't know where to put their hands and feet.
Seeing their embarrassment, Grandma Rong snorted coldly, appearing even more superior.
Lin Zhao saw it from the side and couldn't help but secretly admire him.
This nanny Rong is worthy of being a servant to the queen. This demeanor and demeanor completely overwhelm several women in the Rongguo Mansion who have never met her before.
What a talent!
It's a pity that I am too old to be a talented person.
Otherwise, how could any martial artist be as beautiful as before?
Lin Zhao said to Lin Yang and Lin Fu who came to pick up the boat: "Go and pack up all our things. Is the house packed? Where are the carriages, horses and sedans? The girl is a little tired from the journey, so I asked someone to go back and prepare hot water first.
Ginger soup.”
Lin Yang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, uncle, everything at home is packed. The carriage and horse are in front. I'll bring them here."
As for the other deputy housekeepers, after saluting Lin Zhao, they went to the back to ask Daiyu to disembark.
Lin Zhao saw Daiyu get off the boat and get into the car, then he prepared to ride on a white horse, and Lin Yang led the way to the Viscount's Mansion in the inner city of the capital.
No one glanced at Jia's mother-in-law from beginning to end.
When Lin Zhao arrived at his residence, someone broke in.
But it was Dai Quan, the eunuch beside Emperor Xiaode.
He came to announce the decree, saying that the emperor recognized his great merits and gave him a house.
After Lin Zhao accepted the order, he presented him with a thousand taels of silver notes. Dai Quan accepted it with a smile and revealed a little information without leaving any trace.
After completing this matter, Dai Quan went back to the palace to report to Jin Jin.
After listening to Dai Quan's report, Emperor Xiaode smiled and said to the queen beside him: "Have you never thought that after you are also a hero, your servants would be so arrogant?"
The queen smiled and said nothing.
Emperor Xiaode did not argue, and only said: "The Lin family brothers and sisters are young and have just arrived in Beijing. Take a look and give them to Dai Quan tomorrow. We have to take care of such good children."
no?"
The queen agreed with a smile.
Emperor Xiaode said again: "I'm tired. You can rest first. I'll stay at your place tonight."
