Chapter 804 The emperor, what kind of tricks are you doing?
Jia Zheng, whose courtesy name was Cunzhou, was a man of uprightness, humility and kindness, with a good character and a clean reputation. He was polite to the virtuous and corporal, helped the weak and helped those in danger, and he had a lot of ancestral style, but he lost it due to pedantry.
However, in the eyes of everyone, his literary talent is still good.
At first, Jia Zheng also wanted to take the imperial examination. Unexpectedly, when Daishan died, he left a copy. The emperor, out of sympathy for his ancestors, gave Jia Zheng an additional title of principal and was promoted to Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Industry.
But in fact, if Jia Daishan believed that Jia Zheng was strong enough to become an official through the imperial examination, why should he rely on his old age and ask the emperor to grant him an official position?
In fact, no one knows his son better than his father.
Although Jia Zheng loved reading, his literary talent was actually mediocre.
Although he is not an ignorant person, he is far behind compared to Lin Ruhai, and he is far less articulate than Lin Ruhai.
At that moment, he was smiling all over his face, and he praised Lin Ruhai for his literary talent. In his heart, he could only comfort himself: "Since I was a child, I have been mediocre in writing poems about flowers, birds, landscapes, and landscapes. Now that I am getting older, and I am tired of copywriting, I am not interested in this pleasant article."
I'm even more unfamiliar with him, and I can't even compare to my brother-in-law, a beauty hunter."
So he gave up this topic and turned to talk about Chang'an's scenery, people, and official anecdotes. Then he lamented how time flies, because he pointed to Jia Lian and Lin Zhao who were accompanying him in the hall and said: "When my brother-in-law was appointed as the doctor of Lantai Temple, they
We were all just young children, but now we are all able to support the family business, and we are getting old."
Lin Ruhai also smiled and nodded. He heard Jia Zheng continue to praise Lin Zhao for his prudent behavior at a young age. He commanded the Jin Yiwei at a weak age, which also brought a lot of peace to the capital. I am afraid that his achievements in the future will be limitless, even though he said he was humble.
, looking at his son with a hint of relief and pride in his eyes.
When Jia Zheng was about to say it, Lin Ruhai laughed and said that Lin Zhao was indeed worthy of peace of mind, but since he was born with a jade in his mouth, he would surely have great achievements in the future, and Lian'er would be an official with peace of mind and be steady and steady. The future of Jia and Lin's family would be uncertain.
It will flourish in them.
After drinking a few cups of tea, it was announced that dinner had been served in the backyard, and a housekeeper came over to say that the meals for the gentlemen in the front yard were ready. Jia Zheng invited Lin Ruhai and his son to sit down.
After some poetry, wine and singing, it was already afternoon.
The Lin family then resigned.
Because they were relatives, when Jia Min and Daiyu came out, all the female relatives sent them out. Lin Ruhai saw Tanchun in the crowd and said to Jia Zheng: "There is one thing I have overlooked. I heard that Huan'er was in Zhao."
I'm training under my son. It seems that the Jia family has another brave man.'
Jia Zheng then remembered what happened to Jia Huan, but he still didn't take it to heart. He just said, "Huan'er is unworthy. With Brother Zhao's strict supervision, he may be able to go on the right path, so I can rest assured."
Lin Ruhai nodded, exchanged a few words with Jia Mu, and left with her family.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Ruhai wanted Tan Chun to marry Lin Zhao and the two families to get closer, but he didn't mention it at all, or even let it slip out of his mouth.
Not only him, Jia Min also received instructions from Lin Ruhai, without saying a single unnecessary word.
After returning home, Jia Min asked her husband privately why he didn't mention marriage.
"The third girl was just born by my second brother's concubine. Although her appearance, figure and character are excellent, she was born by my aunt after all. As long as I show off my words, won't my second brother agree with me? Even if my second brother and sister-in-law have ideas.
, if I tell the old lady, how can I not allow it?"
Lin Ruhai frowned and said, "Madam, you are confused. You can't figure out who the second brother is? I'm afraid you don't like our Zhao'er. Do you want to use the third girl to catch a rich son-in-law?"
Jia Min couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "With a family like ours and a character like Zhao'er, my second brother still prides himself on being the head of the Rongguo Mansion. After all, he is just a fifth-rank official. Brother Zhao is willing to accept the third girl as his equal wife."
It's already good, but he still doesn't like it? Master, are you bluffing me?"
Lin Ruhai shook his head and said calmly: "Second brother's eldest daughter has entered the palace and made a virtuous concubine. He is the father-in-law of the country, and Baoyu is the uncle-in-law of the country. How can he like a military attache who is only a third-grade official? I guess.
Look, he wants Tanchun to marry someone with a superior title, or someone noble, who can help Baoyu in the future. With his intention, no matter what the old lady thinks, he can't get through it."
"He is a fifth-grade emperor, but he looks down on a third-grade military attache?" After Jia Min heard this, she was not angry at all. Instead, she thought: "What do I mean, when she was joking in her backyard today?
, the second sister-in-law said on the left, 'The empress in the palace said it', and on the right, 'Baoyu has great fortune', it turns out that they had already had an idea."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but frown and said: "But Tan Yatou is indeed a good girl. Brother Zhao has fallen in love with her again, and there is also the treasure girl. If things happen again, what should we do?"
Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "Madam, Zhao'er is already an adult. In terms of scheming, skill and ability, he is far above me. There is no need for you and me to think of ways. He can naturally handle things properly. After all, that's it.
The third girl is only eleven or twelve years old, and it won't be too late to wait two years."
Lin Zhao has been ridiculously smart since he was a child. Although he has never gone astray, his parents don't need to worry about him at all. Lin Ruhai, the second-rank governor of Shandong, and the title of Earl of Zhongqin, as well as the imperial edict of Jia Min, have Lin Ruhai.
Zhao's eight achievements.
Hearing her husband talk about his son, Jia Min didn't say anything, just sighed.
It seems that it is a pity not to be able to worry about my son.
But I don't have to worry about my son. My daughter is already twelve years old. Although she is still a little younger, she is growing up day by day. After I go to Beijing, I am afraid she will get married.
Thinking of this, I told Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai thought for a while, then called Lin Zhao over again and asked, "You don't like Baoyu. It shows that you have carefully considered your sister's future. Are there any candidates or scope?"
Lin Zhao said: "Daiyu's appearance is naturally one of the best in the world, so I originally thought that I would find a man who would not tolerate two colors, but also had a family background, status and character worthy of my sister. However, although the capital is big,
But it’s hard to find.”
Don't tolerate two colors?
This is true, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min are extremely satisfied with this condition.
But when it comes from Lin Zhao's mouth, there is always a feeling of mismatch.
But seeing Lin Zhaotan's open and frank look, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min didn't say anything.
The last three people discussed for a long time, but they really had no clue. Lin Ruhai said: "You can slowly search for the solution in the capital. It's really not possible. In a few years, after your mother and I settle down in Chang'an, we will search carefully."
Lin Zhao nodded in agreement.
In the past few days, Lin Ruhai visited several old friends, and Jia Min was also invited to visit Xue's house on Zijin Street. He saw Baochai with his own eyes. Although his face was indifferent, he was extremely satisfied in his heart.
When Jia Min returned home happily and wanted to tell Lin Ruhai what she had seen, she was told by Daiyu that a special envoy was sent from the palace to summon the master and his brother to the palace.
…
Da Nei, Qinzheng Hall.
Emperor Xiaode's private office.
At this time, there were five people in the hall.
They are Emperor Xiaode, the eunuch Dai Quan, the commander of the Long Imperial Guard, Tong Lin hiding in the corner, Lin Ruhai, Lin Zhao and his son.
Emperor Xiaode said calmly: "Lin Aiqing, I heard that you have a daughter named Daiyu. She is talented in literature and is known as the 'Great Zhou Yi'an layman'. Can you marry her?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Ruhai's heart tightened.
