Chapter 503: The crime of having a jade in the T-shaped scroll is a double-edged sword
"Cui Ziqiang is still a sweetheart." Lin Ruhai shook his head slightly, "Even the emperor can't do this kind of thing. It involves Long Jinwei and the Ministry of Punishment. They have worked hard to make arrangements. It was originally the emperor's intention. Now you can just reach out and do it." Who can bear it if the peaches are picked away?"
Feng Ziying carefully observed Lin Ruhai's face, which looked pretty good.
However, Feng Ziying also knew that this was just procrastinating. Fortunately, Lin Ruhai was very open-minded, which also helped his current health.
"Well, what my uncle said is true, and my nephew thinks so too. Since he didn't mean to hurt anyone, such a warning is not unacceptable." Feng Ziying smiled wryly and spread her hands, "Who let my nephew do this? What happened?"
"But Ziying, it's true that you also need to be cautious. The imperial government's plans often involve the interests of thousands of households. This time it may be nothing, but next time it may not be that simple." Lin Ruhai's eyes became a little more stern, " And there are many people in this world who dare to challenge all bottom lines for the sake of profit."
"Thank you, uncle, for reminding me. It's just that you have to do some things even if you know there are risks. There is no such thing as pie in the sky in this world, right?" Feng Ziying smiled softly, "So we can only do our best. Take all precautions to nip any danger in the bud.”
Lin Ruhai was silent for a while, then said: "Ziying, are you really planning to..."
Learning a series of Feng Ziying's ideas from Wang Wenyan made Lin Ruhai shocked and a little more worried.
This prospective son-in-law was so thoughtful that he was able to impress the emperor with a memorial, and he was given the authority to act in an expedient manner.
What does it mean to act cheaply? It means that you have full authority to act according to your own intentions, carrying the sword of Shang Fang.
This power is not insignificant, but the requirements will also be very high. If you meet his requirements and goals, everything will be easy to talk about. If you fail to satisfy him, then this power will turn into something that will bite you back.
It turned out that Lin Ruhai had always hoped that this prospective son-in-law would be good enough. The more dazzling he was, the happier he would be. But now he was a little worried. Being too good meant that it would be accompanied by other things, such as ambition and desire. Men without ambition and desire. Of course desire won't work, but overexpansion of ambition and desire is also very dangerous.
For Lin Ruhai before, he hoped that Feng Ziying would be excellent because he felt that his daughter was worthy of her, but now his worries stem from two aspects. On the one hand, his daughter may not be able to control her, and on the other hand, it is also his current What worries her most is that Feng Ziying is too dazzling and has been targeted by Emperor Yonglong.
In a short period of time, or even within ten years, this may be a good thing. You will rise to the top step by step, but it will be cold at the top. If you get too close to the emperor, once there is any trouble, the emperor and the courtiers, just like me, will immediately fall into a kind of situation. An awkward or even dangerous situation.
My own age and body don't matter here, but how old will this prospective son-in-law be ten years from now? He is less than thirty years old. What does that mean?
Have tasted the sweetness of power, can you still endure loneliness?
For a while, Lin Ruhai had mixed feelings in his heart and didn't know what to do.
Feng Ziying immediately felt Lin Ruhai's complicated mood. He shook his head: "Uncle, my nephew understands your worries, but my nephew understands that my nephew is first and foremost a scholar and a civil servant. The emperor loves him. I am very lucky and willing to serve the court. Effectiveness, but my nephew has his own ideas and bottom line. If it goes against my principles of life and work, my nephew would rather go to the academy to give lectures."
“In addition, my nephew will cherish himself and understand that haste makes waste, and impatience ruins big plans. Please don’t worry, uncle,..."
Lin Ruhai's eyes flashed with admiration. He could understand that he was worried just by being a little bit slighter. The key point was that the other party showed such deep sophistication. It was unimaginable that he was less than seventeen years old!
“But those things mentioned in classical Chinese...”
"So my nephew will leave it to Wen Yan and the others. My nephew will not stand at the front easily anymore." Feng Ziying nodded solemnly, "A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, but when it is really necessary, my nephew My nephew will not back down either,…”
Lin Ruhai locked eyes with Feng Ziying for a long time, and finally could only shake his head with a wry smile.
This is really hard to reassure, but if Feng Ziying becomes a person who dares not face challenges and dangers because of this, it may disappoint him again.
He hopes that his daughter can find a happy home, but it is difficult to deny that only a man who is tolerant and courageous can shoulder the burden of a family and family at any time.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Ruhai slowly said: "Ziying, I'm afraid my uncle will not live long..."
Seeing Feng Ziying about to speak, Lin Ruhai waved her hand to stop her, "You don't need to comfort me. I'm already in such a senior year, and I've already made preparations for it. The only one I can't let go of now is Yu'er. Well, in addition, for me, My uncle has also been thinking about how to hand over the savings he has accumulated over the years to you..."
It was difficult for Feng Ziying to answer this, so she could only listen quietly.
"To be honest with Ziying, Uncle Wei has accumulated some savings over the years. Even Uncle Wei knows Jia Lian's intention to come to Yangzhou. There were some arrangements in the two letters between Uncle Wei and Uncle Zheng when you pardoned your uncle. At that time, Uncle Wei was also thinking about Uncle Wei's absence. In this world, Yu'er has not yet been married, so the two brothers-in-law must be entrusted to find a good family for Yu'er, and the savings for the uncle will be handled by Yu'er's two uncles, but now..."
doesn’t seem to be appropriate either.
Even if he and Daiyu were to get engaged soon, Daiyu was only thirteen years old. In addition, if Lin Ruhai passed away, it would take three years before they could get married. Then it was impossible for Daiyu to stay in Yangzhou without any relatives during these three years, nor would she. There may be no relatives in Suzhou, so I can only go to the capital.
Before getting married in the capital, according to current customs, unmarried men and women need to have their elders present when they meet, otherwise it is easy to cause gossip.
So Daiyu still has only one place to go, and that is her uncle's house in Rongguo Mansion.
"Uncle, my nephew suggests that it is best to give your savings to Brother Lian. Brother Lian is a real person, and my sister will also live in Rongguo Mansion in the future. Well, after all, Uncle Pardon and Uncle Zhengshi He is my sister's biological uncle. When my sister gets married in the future, my nephew believes that Uncle Shi Shi and Uncle Zheng Shi will not treat my sister badly..."
Feng Ziying is very calm and honest.
"Ziying, I know that you and Lian'er have a close relationship, but you have to know that he may not be able to take charge after returning."
Lin Ruhai smiled and admired Feng Ziying's magnanimity. No wonder Yu'er admired him so much.
The other party is also thinking about Yu'er's future life in Rongguo Mansion.
Lin Ruhai, who is accustomed to the world, can imagine what kind of attitude the Jia family would have if Jia Lian returned to the capital empty-handed.
Maybe there is nothing on the surface. After all, Yu'er is also the direct granddaughter of the ancestor, but people like Yu'er's uncle, several aunts, those cousins, and even those servants , I’m afraid that may not be the case.
Things like this cannot be hidden from anyone. Even if they want to hide it, some people will reveal it accidentally or intentionally. Moreover, Lin Ruhai also knows that the Rong Ning family is far from being as prosperous as it appears on the surface. The situation of strong support is too strong. It's obvious.
For example, the reason why my niece did not leave the palace until she was eighteen or nineteen years old, is it possible that the Jia family did not consider it at all?
If you really want to get an ordinary female historian out of the palace, you can't think of a way. It's nothing more than finding some connections in the palace and spending some money. I have also written to my two brothers-in-law with suggestions, but the two The brother-in-law didn't mention this matter at all in his reply, and Lin Ruhai understood.
Fortunately, now I finally got what I wanted, but I just suffered a lot from my niece.
Before, I had the intention to entrust Yu'er and everything in the family to the Jia family, but now I have to change suddenly, I'm afraid everyone will be unhappy.
“Uncle, my nephew thinks it’s okay. My sister has lived in the Jia family for many years, and my uncle should know that my nephew values my sister more.”
Feng Ziying's calm demeanor made Lin Ruhai feel more and more that she had chosen the right person. Who said so, but of course Lin Ruhai had to make more preparations. Fortunately, the Jia family didn't know about her own property, so they could divide it easily.
"Well, I will consider this matter. In addition, Uncle Wei has dealt with a lot of things in his position as the Salt Patrol Censor over the years. Well, I'm afraid you also know how special this position is, and Uncle Wei won't hide it from you now. , I am afraid that the Supreme Emperor has already made some plans, and the Emperor also has thoughts, but because Uncle Wei is still here, Uncle Wei estimates that they will also have some plans, and it is estimated that there will be a result soon, but I have these things in my uncle’s hands..."
Feng Ziying’s eyes lit up.
Feng Ziying has always been curious about what Lin Ruhai had in her hand, but she couldn't ask.
Even Wang Wenyan has revealed some information, but it is not clear. Even Wang Wenyan himself can only say that he knows part of it. Lin Ruhai must be in control of the most critical and core things.
But Feng Ziying can guess.
The six-year inspection of the salt censor involved countless wealthy salt merchants in the world, and even important officials and clan members in the court were probably involved.
Furthermore, Lin Ruhai took over when the first two salt inspectors committed suicide and the other was driven into unconsciousness and took office. There may be many dirty and dirty things during the Yuanxi period.
For Emperor Yuanxi, Emperor Yonglong, Prince Yizhong, and even the Central Cabinet, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, etc., this is either a matter of strategic planning or a matter of interest.
Everyone hopes that they can master all this and it is best for others not to know, to have exclusive secrets, and even to use these secrets to serve themselves. This is what everyone desires.
The crime of possessing a jade is a double-edged sword that can hurt others and benefit oneself, but can also hurt oneself and harm others.
