Lin Boyong looked at the ring, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Once upon a time, because the ring was taken away, he became a marginalized member of the Lin family. At first, he couldn't figure it out, and he was very angry. But after reflection, he felt that he was not qualified for his job.
. As time went by, I felt relieved. Now that the ring finger came before me again, Lin Boyong couldn't help but sigh and sigh in his heart, which was hard to describe.
Lin Boyong stretched out his old fingers and grasped the ring. The young masters breathed a sigh of relief, thinking in their hearts: He still wanted to be the head of the family. But the next moment, they all opened their eyes wide and opened their mouths in shock.
Lin Boyong took the wrench, held it up under the light and squinted at it for a while, then took Lin Jue's hand and slowly put it on Lin Jue's thumb.
Lin Jue was shocked and said: "Uncle, what are you..."
Lin Boyong reached out and patted the back of Lin Jue's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Lin Jue, the uncle is old and can no longer take on important responsibilities. The uncle is also incompetent. After being the head of the family for more than 20 years, the Lin family has not improved. Bonian is the head of the family.
During this period, it was even more... Hey! I won’t go into details. The Lin family is now at a critical moment. We can no longer allow mediocre people like us to be the head of the family. What we need are people who dare to make decisions and have a far-sighted vision. We need you, the younger generation, to lead the Lin family forward.
Chong. Lin Jue, you are the leader of the next generation of the Lin family. No matter how talented, knowledgeable, strategic or courageous, no other young master can compare with you. Therefore, you should be the head of the family."
Lin Jue hurriedly said: "Uncle, how is this possible?"
Lin Boyong smiled and said: "Of course, at this time, you should do your part. Do you hope that the Lin family will go astray again? I dare say that among the next generation, there is no one who does not admire you. Not to mention that you are even in trouble.
The number one scholar in the Yuan Dynasty has brought honor to the lintel of my Lin family. Let's take the matter at hand as an example. When I rushed to the capital, everyone and I discussed it on the boat for several days, but we didn't come up with a solution. We didn't know what to do when we got to the capital? But you
I have made all preparations and thought of countermeasures. If it weren't for you, we would all be running around like headless flies without having any clue. Moreover, this strategy has been arranged in every detail, and it is in line with me.
The greatest interests of the Lin family are impressive. If you are not the head of the family, who is qualified to be the head of the family? Don’t refuse, revitalizing the Lin family is your responsibility and you must shoulder it."
Lin Jue didn't know what to say, so he turned to look at the young masters. Lin Quan shouted: "Lin Jue, don't refuse, no one can be the head of the family except you. The uncle is right, for the Lin family, you must be the head of the family."
Head of the house."
"You're right, Lin Jue, you are the only candidate. Don't worry, we all support you." Everyone shouted.
Lin Jue frowned and said, "I'm afraid I messed up."
Lin Boyong chuckled and said: "If you continue to smash it, can it be worse than now? Lin Jue, you can do it with confidence and boldness, and your uncle can still help you. The appointment of the head of the family needs to be decided by the family meeting, but in emergency situations, there is no need to stick to this. We
The people sitting here are all direct relatives and a few respected collateral uncles. Let’s decide this matter together, and then we will go back to Hangzhou and gather the clan members to announce it. Do any of you object to this matter?”
Who would object? Even if you want to object, you don’t dare to say it now. Then you are causing trouble for yourself. What’s more, no one except Lin Jue can take charge of the overall situation at this time. Everyone agreed one after another. Lin Quan needless to say
Lin Boyong, Huang Changqing, etc. will definitely agree. Several uncles were also selected by Lin Jue to manage affairs, so they are naturally very satisfied with Lin Jue. Although the two brothers Lin Chang and Lin Sheng have some grudges in their hearts, after all, the father of the family has been raped.
, but Lin Jue was determined to rescue Lin Bonian and made so many preparations for this. They saw it in their eyes and were grateful in their hearts, so naturally they would not object.
Although Lin Song and Lin Run were a little unhappy, their father agreed, so how could they object. Therefore, everyone in the hall unanimously approved Lin Jue as the new head of the Lin family. Lin Jue could not refuse, and he would not tell anyone.
, this is actually the inevitable result of this incident, and it is also the result that he can think of.
The colorful purple ring was placed on Lin Jue's thumb. Lin Jue looked down at it and was filled with emotion. He finally became the head of the Lin family, although under such special circumstances. The head of the house seemed to accept orders in times of crisis.
But at least one thing can be guaranteed. After he becomes the head of the family, at least the Lin family will not go astray like in the previous life, leading to the destruction of the whole family. At least he has the right to control.
But at the same time, the burden of this large family of hundreds of people is also on his shoulders. Whether he can lead the Lin family to better development is also an arduous task. And this time, it is the first major
test.
"There is a long way to go, so work hard." Lin Boyong patted Lin Jue's shoulder and said this was exactly what Lin Jue was thinking at the moment.
…
The next morning, Lin Jue and Lin Boyong went to the old palace to meet Guo Bing. Guo Bing and his son met them in the study.
Lin Boyong expressed his gratitude to the prince for his help, and said a lot of polite words such as "He helps us with righteousness, and we dare not or forget our great kindness." Guo Bing naturally accepted it calmly. But what Lin Boyong didn't know was that,
Guo Bing was initially opposed to Lin Jue's determination to rescue Lin Bonian. As for the so-called "great kindness and generous helping hand" this time, it was also due to the stubborn persistence of Lin Jue and Guo Caiwei.
I decided to help after considering the development of the situation and the interests of the palace.
It is said that yesterday afternoon, Lin Jue and Guo Caiwei returned to the palace uninvited. Lin Jue did not hide anything. After greetings, he dropped the bombshell news and reported to Guo Bing that day in Yude Tower with Yan Zheng.
Sufang Dunru finally reached the deal. At that time, Guo Bing's mouth was wide open in surprise and his expression was dull.
On the one hand, Guo Bing did not expect that Lin Jue did not take his words to heart at all, and his attitude that day was just to deal with him. He still did it his own way, treating his words as farts. On the other hand,
Guo Bing also didn't expect that Lin Jue would actually go to make a deal with Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, and actually reach a deal, which shocked Guo Bing.
Based on Guo Bing's understanding of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, he knew that these two people were not recognized by their relatives, and it was impossible for him to give up his position just because of Lin Jue's relationship with them. It was precisely because of his understanding of these two people that Guo Bing strongly suggested
Lin Jue should not get involved in this matter, because it is easy to get angry. But they actually reached a deal with Lin Jue, which only shows that their understanding of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru is very superficial.
Of course, Guo Bing still had some doubts about Lin Jue's words, so Lin Jue gave him a detailed analysis at that time. Lin Jue told Guo Bing that the biggest weakness of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru now was actually that they were about to
When it comes to the implementation of reforms, only this matter can really affect their nerves. He has hit what they are most concerned about from two aspects.
The first is whether they can successfully impeach the three ministers and complete the defeat of the three ministers' yamen, which not only establishes authority but also prepares for the reform. The second is to see that one of the purposes of their reform is to improve the imperial finances. There is nothing comparable.
Giving a large amount of money to solve the urgent needs of the court better reflects the immediate effect brought by Yan Zhengshu and Fang Dunru. With a little action, two million taels of silver immediately entered the treasury. This was exactly what Yan Zhengshu and Fang Dunru had done
It needs to be shown to the emperor and the court. These two points are what they need, so naturally they would rather give up some principled things and agree to their own conditions.
After listening to Lin Jue's explanation, Guo Bing secretly sighed. His analysis of the problem was actually not as good as Lin Jue's. So many years of experience were in vain. He only saw the surface, but Lin Jue had a deep understanding of the hearts of those two people. And
How much courage and courage it takes to dare to blackmail and threaten them. Of course, all this is related to Lin Jue and Fang Dunru Yan Zhengsheng who have had a lot of contact, and may know their details. I am at a disadvantage because I have no chance to deal with these two people.
Heart to heart. But even so, it is amazing that Lin Jue can make such a deal.
However, Guo Bing was a little unhappy. Lin Jue even dared to threaten his teacher and Yan Zhengsheng, which showed that this person was bold and unruly. This kind of person is actually the most terrifying and difficult to deal with, because nothing can restrain him.
He. He only wants to accomplish what he wants to do, and does not care about other rules. His doing so will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction from Fang Dunru and Sheng Zhengsheng. They may not have time to take care of him at the moment, but they will definitely have to follow him in the future.
He settled the score. As for Guo Bing, he never wanted Lin Jue and Fang Dunru to have a serious quarrel, because that would cause Lin Jue to lose a large part of his value.
Another point that Guo Bing is unhappy about is that Lin Jue still didn't take his words seriously after all. Although his words were slapped in the face by Lin Jue with reality, it has always been the prerogative of the superior to know their mistakes and not correct them. What Guo Bing hopes is
, even if you are wrong, others must carry out your orders to the letter. It is not important whether you are right or wrong, but whether you obey and be obedient is the most important.
Therefore, when Lin Jue asked the prince to fund the purchase of all the Lin family's properties and help him quickly raise two million taels of silver, Guo Bing refused on the spot without any mercy for his son-in-law. When he saw the frustration on Lin Jue's face
Guo Bing's expression was indescribably happy and happy.
"I told you to be a fool, but this time I have to make you feel weak in front of me. You thought I would agree, but I just let you go." Guo Bing thought happily in his heart. He didn't know why he was so childish.
He actually became jealous of his son-in-law, jealous that Lin Jue was more capable than him.
Although Lin Jue was very depressed, he did not panic because she had a trump card. His trump card was the little princess. Before coming, the couple had discussed what to do if the King of Liang did not agree. The little princess acted with her strength.
What is the image of a married daughter throwing water, and what is the image of elbows turned outward?
"Dad, if you don't want to help with this matter, we won't blame you. But now that our daughter is a member of the Lin family, Wei'er must advance and retreat with the Lin family. Her daughter decided to sell the house in Daxiangguo Temple and sell the family's
All the family property and jewelry were sold, and she had to collect money to save her husband's second uncle. If the money was not enough, Wei'er had to find someone to borrow money. In short, no matter what, she had to collect the money to save her husband. Wei'er had to find someone to borrow money.
Even if my son wears cloth clothes, eats steamed buns, goes out to sew and wash for others, or even goes begging for food, he will never embarrass his father."
The little princess's words made Guo Bing stare angrily. Although he knew that his daughter's words were a threat to blackmail him, with Caiwei's temper, she might actually do it. Selling her property to raise money? Then she would wear cloth clothes, eat steamed buns, and even beg.
Begging for food? What she loses is not her face, but her old face.
