Chapter 765

Dongshun Restaurant is not far from the Imperial City.

Of course, this is not far, and it is also relatively speaking.

After all, right outside the palace gate is Zhuque Street. Who without a good eye would dare to do business on Tian Street?

Let alone doing business, officials, big and small, would not even dare to ride horses on Zhuque Street unless ordered to do so.

That is to say, important officials of the imperial court and officials above the Nine Ministers can ride in sedan chairs to the palace gate. The other officials who are not important enough can only walk.

So it's quite a walk from Gongmen Check-in to Dongshun Restaurant.

Jia Yucun has served as the prefect of Jinling for more than a year. He went to Beijing to report on his duties. He is also willing to work hard, so he naturally understands the ins and outs of this.

Nowadays, the man of the hour in Beijing is not the Shuntian governor, nor the prince or general, but Lin Zhao, who is known as the "Tiger that cleans the streets."

Logically speaking, a leader of the royal guards should be trusted by the emperor, feared by all the officials, and feared by the people.

But now he still has the emperor's trust. Under his leadership, the entire Jin Yiwei, in the name of the emperor's personal army, started to maintain public security in the capital. They wiped out the green-skinned gangsters in the capital and were deeply loved by the people.

The emperor's personal army has done well, and it is naturally the emperor's credit. The people support the emperor's personal army, and naturally they respect the emperor more and more.

Even those officials with conscience were full of praise.

However, the Jinyi Weidutang who accomplished this was only a migrant official under the age of twenty, which had to be astonishing.

It just so happened that this young man was still the student he taught back then.

When he was in Yangzhou, although this student was like a wolf and a tiger, he was just a mediocre classical historian. Jia Yucun once lamented that he had let himself down and had no way of participating in the scientific examination.

Who would have thought that in just over a year, he had already become a third-rank commander of the Imperial Guard, with the title of Uncle Zhongqin on his body, and in terms of future and power, he was far above him.

As for why the dignified commander of the Jinyi Guards wanted to see him, Jia Yucun didn't think much about it.

Maybe it’s to meet your old teacher, have a chat, and make a good relationship.

After all, Jia Yucun did an excellent job as the prefect of Jinling, and his performance evaluation by the Ministry of Civil Affairs was rated as excellent. If he gets this evaluation for three consecutive years, he might be transferred to the capital if he keeps active.

When the time comes, it will be inevitable for the two of them to deal with each other. When the time comes, they can support each other and gain a firm foothold, right?

Jia Yucun was thinking about all this, so he followed Qian Zhenglun to Dongshun Restaurant and entered a private room.

"Students meet their teachers. I haven't seen them for two years. I really miss them."

Lin Zhao laughed loudly, stood up and saluted with his hands in hand.

The waist is straight.

This is also what it should be.

"Don't dare, don't dare. Now that Lin Dutang is successful, my subordinates are very emotional every time they hear the news."

Jia Yucun didn't dare to hold it in front of him, so he handed it over.

He had the opportunity to be the prefect of Jinling only with Lin Ruhai's letter of recommendation and the connections to the Rongguo Mansion.

Therefore, the Lin family can be regarded as his benefactor.

Even if he had been a tutor to the Lin Zhao brothers and sisters, it was nothing.

Therefore, in the face of Lin Zhao's politeness, Jia Yucun was even more polite.

The two argued for a while and finally decided to address each other by their official titles.

"Lin Dutang invited me over this time. What advice do you have?"

After chatting for a long time, Jia Yucun finally couldn't hold back his doubts and asked.

Lin Zhao did not speak. Instead, he pushed the cut tea in front of Jia Yucun and said with a smile: "Students remember that my wife came from a poor family and once worked as a maid for the Zhen Shiyin family, a branch of the Zhen family in Jiangnan. Is that right?

"

Jia Yucun felt strange, but he didn't think much about it and nodded involuntarily.

Isn’t it easy for Jinyiwei to check a person’s details?

It's just for no reason. Why is Jin Yiwei paying attention to Jiao Xing (Jia Yucun's wife)?

Lin Zhao continued: "I remember that Zhen Shiyin is a serious and innocent man with a calm temperament. He is from a prominent family in Gusu. His wife Feng is a virtuous character and understands etiquette and righteousness. His father Zhen Shiyin is a serious and innocent man with a calm nature and is from a prominent local family. The couple are half a century old.

, I have no children and only one daughter, whose nickname is Yinglian. But she was kidnapped when she was four years old and there has been no news from her. Am I right?"

Jia Yucun was shocked in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

But I already felt vaguely that something was wrong.

Just when he was thinking about how to answer, Lin Zhao continued: "According to Jin Yiwei's investigation, Zhen Ying's lotus eyebrows originally had a little rouge the size of a grain of rice. She was born with pink makeup and beautiful eyes. Prefect Jia should remember this, right? Even if you don't

Remember, Master should also remember it, right?"

"me……"

In an instant, Jia Yucun was sweating like rain.

As smart as him, how could he not know what Lin Zhao would say next?

But Lin Zhao didn't seem to see Jia Yucun's expression, and continued: "Prefect Jia must know that the capital city is severely cracking down. Xue Pan of the Xue family in Jinling was once sent to a labor camp outside the city for two months. After he came out, his temperament changed drastically. He knew how to change his behavior.

When he realized the new truth, he sent a maid named Xiangling from his family to the Lin Mansion, and she happened to be accepted as a disciple by his sister-in-law. Speaking of which, she was also the disciple of Magistrate Jia, so there is a great connection!"

"Plop!"

At this point, Jia Yucun still didn't understand something, so his legs became weak and he fell down from his seat and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Lin Dutang, Xianguan...Xiaguan...Xiaoguan was ignorant at the beginning, and his heart was clouded by lard. He did not handle the case impartially, which caused the benefactor's daughter to perish. Xianguan is guilty of a serious crime, a serious crime."

Jia Yucun kowtowed repeatedly and kept shouting.

At the same time, the tears couldn't stop flowing down.

A truly superb acting talent.

I have to say that all officials are smart people. Their acting skills are much better than those who play basketball or football. They burst into tears in an instant. Most people really can't do it.

Although this little thing that Jin Yiwei mastered was nothing, it had a huge impact on his official reputation.

The prefect of Jinling turned a blind eye to the fate of his benefactor's daughter. He was as heartless as a snake.

A typical white-eyed wolf.

Who dares to get close to such an official?

Once this news spreads, Jia Yucun will not only lose his official position, but also fear that there will be no foundation for his existence among the scholars.

Lin Zhao smiled faintly.

His body didn't move, but he said: "What is Magistrate Jia doing? If this poor woman can find her parents with the help of the Magistrate, wouldn't it be a good thing? Does Magistrate Jia know the story of mending the situation after the sheep has been lost?"

When Lin Zhao said these words, Jia Yucun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He knew that Lin Zhao did not intend to pursue the case any further.

As long as he makes amends for his mistakes, makes amends for his past mistakes, invites the Zhen family and his wife to the capital, and reunites the family, then Lin Zhao can forget the past.

What else can Jia Yucun say?

He quickly said: "Don't worry, Lord Tutang. After the official returns, he will do his best to invite his benefactor and his wife to the capital."

"Zhifu Jia has the heart of a Bodhisattva!"

Lin Zhao admired it, and then said: "Master, please taste this pot of tea slowly. The student will leave now."

After saying that, he stood up and walked away.

Then he looked at the clear sky and white clouds and laughed at himself.

Now, he has become the logistics director of everyone in the Red Mansion.

Either he helped Baochai educate his elder brother, or he helped Tanchun take care of his younger brother. Now he is also helping Xiangling find his parents.

He is simply Bao Qingtian of the Zhou Dynasty.

"Just think of it for your own sake." Lin Zhao laughed and mounted his horse to return home.
