They are all people who are struggling in the officialdom. How could Mr. Lin fail to hear the tone of Prime Minister Hao's words? In today's officialdom, there are endless battles between civil and military officials. As the leader of the civil service, Prime Minister Hao naturally wants to
Winning all the civil servants together.
Over the years, Mr. Lin has always adhered to his duty and not participated in civil and military battles. Firstly, because he was not born into a wealthy family and did not have a strong family to rely on. Secondly, because he was able to achieve his current position, he was in the same position as his predecessor.
The brothers-in-law who have made great achievements in the border area are inseparable from it.
The civil servants brought him under the military attache's command, and the military attaché looked down upon his clean style. But this time, Su Xubai treated him mercilessly, pushing Mr. Lin towards the civil servants' faction.
Mr. Lin is able to achieve his current position from a humble family, so he certainly has some skills: "My brother-in-law is a good man who throws his life and blood on the frontier, but his son, he has a beautiful woman in his arms and does not want to miss Shu."
ah!"
But Prime Minister Hao just smiled: "As a young man, there is never a caring person around you who knows both coldness and warmth. It is common to be deceived by such a deep-hearted woman!"
"Who says it's not the case!" Mr. Lin sighed, "Su Wu is a promising man. Every time I test his knowledge, I am always surprised by him. It's just that he is young and frivolous and ignorant. Now he is tripped up by a woman from the countryside.
It’s a pity, it’s a pity!”
"Master Lin and I are both talented people. How can we bear to see such a good young talent like Su Xubai ruined in the hands of a Jiangnan girl!" Prime Minister Hao poured a glass of wine for Master Lin, "Today I asked you to come out.
, also for this matter!”
Lord Lin looked at the wine in front of him and raised his eyebrows calmly: "Oh? What are your plans, Prime Minister?"
"I have watched Su Xubai since he was a child, and I can't bear to have him ruin his future because of a woman!" Prime Minister Hao said with pity on his face, "I have a daughter under my knees, who is useless, but she is still useful.
He is virtuous and generous, but he is not married now. Earlier, I had the intention of betrothing my daughter to him, but the Marquis of Wuchang has been away from the capital, and I have not lost my love and have a good talk with the Marquis of Wuchang!"
Prime Minister Hao was forced to marry but was rejected, and Su Xubai was forced to go away to a foreign country. Hao Jiaojiao threw a banquet for Su Xubai later. Who in the capital didn't know about these two things?
But when it came to Prime Minister Hao, it was a high-sounding statement. If Mr. Lin hadn't been in the officialdom for dozens of years and had seen many shameless things, he would have laughed on the spot!
But the person in front of him is Prime Minister Hao, who is a very humane minister after all. There is no need to offend him, so Master Lin naturally pretends that he does not know about this matter: "The Marquis of Wuchang will not be able to come back in the past two years.
, but the marriage of the children, no matter how busy he is, the Marquis of Wuchang will definitely take it to heart! Although the exchange of letters is slower, it is still necessary!"
Prime Minister Hao looked at the sharp-tongued Master Lin in front of him and secretly gritted his silver teeth. He originally wanted to coax Master Lin to nod to this marriage. After all, the Marquis of Wuchang is not in the capital now, and Mrs. Su is a
As a female prostitute, he is the brother-in-law and Su Xubai's uncle, so he can definitely help with this matter.
It's just obvious that although Mr. Lin was angry that Su Xubai didn't show any mercy to him, he didn't want to offend him, so he wouldn't do anything very useful in this matter.
"Master Lin and the Marquis have been friends for decades. I have to ask Master Lin to put in a kind word for this matter!" Although Prime Minister Hao knew that the man in front of him could not be of much help, he did not
intend to offend him.
Master Lin naturally responded with a smile: "That's natural, that's natural!"
Lord Lin just had a drink, but he didn't agree to anything. When Prime Minister Hao asked someone to pay the bill, the smile on his face was a bit shattered, but Lord Lin just looked like he didn't know anything, and he didn't know anything.
The angry Prime Minister Hao didn't look very good when he finally left.
Because he had eaten some wine, Mrs. Lin did not take a car when he returned home. Instead, he walked slowly on the road, because what Mrs. Lin hates the most is the smell of alcohol. Over the years, he has become accustomed to not drinking.
"Sir, if you reject the Prime Minister like this, won't you be resented by him?" The boy was a little uneasy.
"Her daughter coaxed Guan'er into trouble with Cheng Xiaoniang, which ended up causing me to lose face. I didn't even bear grudges against him. What reason did he have to grudge me?" Mr. Lin raised his eyebrows with disdain on his face, "He
If you have these thoughts, wouldn’t it be better to focus more on government affairs?”
The boy said nothing.
"I am brother-in-law with the Marquis of Wuchang. Over the years, he has saved me from fire and water many times, and there is no way I could stab him in the back!" Mr. Lin walked forward slowly, "Has Aunt Zheng come to see you recently?
Pass you?"
The boy was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Xi Yue, who is beside Aunt Zheng, has come to see me several times, but she didn't ask anything. She just brought some fruits!"
Master Lin glanced at the boy: "Whatever she asks, just answer it truthfully. There is no need to whitewash it!"
Although the boy was puzzled, he still agreed.
Mr. Lin walked forward slowly with his hands behind his back: "The younger generation is to be feared!"
"Is this the fifth master of the Su family you are talking about?" the boy was curious.
Master Lin smiled and said, "Why are you meddling in so many other things?"
The boy touched his nose and said: "I have seen Su Wuye's concubine. When she was on East Street, she looked very innocent, beautiful and kind. Her eyes were particularly beautiful. I don't think she looks like them.
The kind of person mentioned here!"
"Su Xubai is young but also smart. He is not the kind of person who will be easily deceived by others. I have never seen the concubine next to him, but it may not be what they say!"
Mr. Lin smiled helplessly, "A daughter from an ordinary family will not be able to get what others want when she gets rich. With no background and no identity, it is inevitable that she will attract some dirty words!"
The boy fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
When Master Lin saw that he was silent, he turned back and looked at him: "What's wrong? Do you think it's cruel?"
The boy smiled bitterly: "That's right. She didn't do anything wrong. She was just good-looking and liked the master, but she became a scourge in the eyes of everyone!"
"The world is always like this. There have been so many foolish kings in history. It was clear that they themselves were not upright, and in the end they were scolded for causing harm to the country and the people, but they were often women!" Mr. Lin walked forward with his hands behind his back, and then said slowly, "In this world,
As a beautiful woman, we still have a long way to go!”
