Chapter 125 of T-Zi Volume: The best policy is to be less restless and less impatient.

 Lin Ruhai stroked the long beard under his chin and looked at the young man in front of him, feeling more and more emotional in his heart.

With letters from Qi Yongtai and the parents of the Feng family, as well as Feng Ziying's letter, Daiyu's marriage is basically settled. Even if she closes her eyes now, as a member of the Feng family, it is unlikely that she will regret the marriage.

, that is to say, I have nothing to worry about.

Of course there is another thing about Miaoyu.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai also felt a little guilty. Daiyu's affairs were arranged properly, but Miaoyu's affairs seemed not that simple.

When he met this girl, her personality was not as withdrawn as he initially feared, but she was a bit stubborn and weird.

Before she proposed her marriage, she clearly told herself that she was only coming back to fulfill her responsibilities as a daughter. Once her responsibilities were over, she would return to the capital city to follow her master and continue to practice Buddhism. This gave Lin Ruhai a big headache.

This daughter doesn't have much affection for her father, and Lin Ruhai knows it very well.

Although it is said that even if Miaoyu's affair changes, it will not affect Daiyu's marriage. Under such circumstances, even if the Feng family is dissatisfied, they will never regret the marriage because of the lack of a dowry. There is no such thing in the world.

, but it is true that Daiyu may suffer some injustice from the Feng family in the future.

However, based on Lin Ruhai's observation of Feng Ziying, he showed extraordinary concern and love for Daiyu.

Although from the perspective of etiquette, it is inappropriate to have feelings before marriage, in fact, there are many stories about childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts, and everyone is happy to see it happen, so Feng Ziying is close to and cares about Daiyu

Lin Ruhai was reassured. Even if it was because of Miaoyu's mistake, he believed that Feng Ziying would not let Daiyu suffer much injustice in the Feng family.

"Well, Miaoyu's matter..." Lin Ruhai frowned slightly and stopped talking.

"Uncle, regarding Miss Miaoyu, my nephew thinks it's better to let nature take its course." Feng Ziying continued, "Actually, it was just a cover before. Since my mother has agreed to the marriage, it is not a problem, and a few years later Lin

My sister has grown up, and I believe that my mother will not have any objections at that time. Besides, when Wen Yan went to negotiate with Master Jingyuan, he also promised Master Jingyuan that if Miss Miaoyu had her own

Opinions will be respected..."

Lin Ruhai shook his head, his expression was dull, but his tone was unquestionable.

"Miaoyu also has a somewhat gloomy and extreme temperament under the influence of her mother. This is also my responsibility, but after all, she is a bloodline of my Lin family. I was responsible before, but now I must make plans for her future. Her origin has determined it.

Fa and Daiyu, and she is so old now. She will be twenty-one in three years. How can she get married? As for entrusting her life to Buddhism, that is absolutely impossible. I can't let my daughter of the Lin family live in prostitution all her life.

The ancient Buddha is alone!"

Seeing Lin Ruhai Taidu be so decisive, Feng Ziying was a little surprised, but then she thought about it.

If it were not difficult to survive these days, who would let their children become monks?

Even poor families would rather sell their sons and daughters as slaves to a rich family than say that they would send their children to a temple to become a monk. Lin Ruhai would definitely not agree to such an outcome.

Seeing Lin Ruhai's face flushed and a little excited, Feng Ziying quickly advised: "Uncle, don't be angry. Miss Miaoyu has been practicing in the temple for many years. She may have had little contact with the outside world and doesn't know much about worldly life. In addition, she has no relatives or friends." , so some other thoughts are normal, but my nephew sees that she has gotten along very well with Miss Shi, Yu Chuan'er, and Cui Lu. If she is allowed to live in the house for a while, it will enhance her relationship with her. There may be some changes in the relationship between Sister Lin..."

Lin Ruhai was greatly moved by Feng Ziying's suggestion.

He also knew that his daughter, a concubine, had lived in a temple for many years and was definitely not very adaptable to secular life. Naturally, she was incompatible with the outside world. If he forced his own ideas on her, even if she married into the Feng family in the future, she would be in trouble. What a troublesome thing.

Therefore, the person who untied the bell must also tie the bell. He also had to slowly open up her heart and let her gradually adapt to secular life. I am afraid that in order to achieve the goal, can my body still support it until then?

Seeing Lin Ruhai's expression changing, Feng Ziying naturally understood Lin Ruhai's worries: "Uncle, don't worry too much. Miss Miaoyu is very talented and will definitely understand your painstaking efforts..."

Lin Ruhai sighed and shook his head with a wry smile: "If she is really a stupid girl, that's all. At least she is obedient and uncle makes arrangements for her. She can't resist. But as you said, she is talented and smart. She has a high spirit and many ideas, but it is easier. Cleverness is misled by cleverness. As a father, will I harm my own daughter?"

After Lin Ruhai said this, Feng Ziying couldn't say anything more. He had already fulfilled his promise. If Miaoyu was really willing to marry Daiyu, of course he would welcome it. If not, then he would also Will not force it.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. I heard that the imperial court has reopened the Zhongshu Department, and it is said that it is possible to be promoted to the Zhongshu Supervisor, who will be responsible for other affairs?" Lin Ruhai stared at Feng Ziying, "Your senior officer should be shocked by the household department. The right servant is in charge of writing about science and technology?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai was so well-informed. It seemed that Lin Ruhai also had deep connections in the capital city. Feng Ziying nodded: "It is indeed true, but there is no mention of the Zhongshu Supervisor. The official is in charge of the Zhongshu Department and is responsible for opening up the sea. Regarding affairs, my nephew came to Yangzhou this time under the orders of the emperor and the cabinet, just to prepare for the opening of the sea."

Lin Ruhai had obviously received the news a long time ago, "The business of opening up the sea is complicated. My nephew chose to come to Yangzhou. I am afraid that Yangzhou has the best business and trade in the world, but he came here because of the silver village?"

Now that they have made an engagement, Lin Ruhai is equivalent to Feng Ziying's future father-in-law. Feng Ziying has nothing to hide in front of him, "I came just for this matter. The success or failure of Yinzhuang is related to the promotion of the entire sea-opening strategy. It can be said that it is the most important thing." The emperor, the cabinet and even the officials attach great importance to this important matter, so they sent their nephew to take the front line..."

A faint smile appeared on Lin Ruhai's face, "It seems that the emperor also knows about your marriage to Yu'er?"

Feng Ziying nodded calmly: "When the emperor summoned me, my nephew talked about setting up a bank in Yangzhou as a fulcrum to support the opening of the sea. The emperor asked why he chose Yangzhou instead of the capital, Jinling or Guangzhou. The nephew mentioned that besides Yangzhou's trade

In addition to being prosperous, it is also the core of the salt transportation between the north and the south. Well, I want to rely on my uncle’s help..."

The smile on Lin Ruhai's face grew wider and wider, "No wonder Uncle Wei has heard a lot of rumors recently, and many people have come to inquire about the news and send messages..."

Feng Ziying is now his son-in-law, and it is obvious that Emperor Yonglong is using Feng Ziying to test his attitude. No wonder the emperor and the concubine are so nervous, Lin Ruhai thought to himself.

It's just that it's hard for him to judge the good or bad for a while now.

If he was in good health, he would definitely not express his attitude easily, but now that he only has a few months to live, he has to think more.

Feng Ziying seemed to see Lin Ruhai's entanglement and hesitation, which was understandable. After all, Lin Ruhai had been a personal minister of the Supreme Emperor for so many years, but now that he was in poor health, the Supreme Emperor did not have many gifts. Instead, he was worried that he had revealed something.

Secret, or turning to the other side and vaguely using some means. This naturally made Lin Ruhai feel a little chilled.

But it is difficult for Lin Ruhai to fully express his attitude now. However, Feng Ziying does not want Lin Ruhai to completely fall to Emperor Yonglong. It is not necessary, and it is easy to bring some unnecessary risks, and even intensify the conflict between the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Yonglong.

.

And he just needs some resources. Lin Ruhai can help quietly, and he can also take action generously. Even the Supreme Emperor can't say anything. After all, the strategy of opening up the sea is also a national policy set by the imperial court.

As for the specific details of the joints, it is not enough for outsiders to understand.

"Uncle, you don't need to pay attention to the rumors outside. As far as my nephew knows, there won't be any changes in the Yamen of the Huaihe River Salt Transport Bureau in a short time." Feng Ziying needed to cheer Lin Ruhai up.

"Oh?" Lin Ruhai was slightly surprised. How dare Feng Ziying say such a thing? "What does my nephew mean by this?"

"In special times, it is important to be calm and not restless." Feng Ziying smiled and said, "Don't you think that the current situation in the DPRK is when the rapids are surging?"

Lin Ruhai was stunned.

"It is said that Mr. Zheng from the Ministry of Household Affairs and Mr. Xiao from the Ministry of Justice may both become officials. This means that the two ministers are vacant. In addition, the vacancy of the Minister of Rites after Mr. Li entered the cabinet has not yet been filled. The cabinet is still short of a cabinet elder. The chief minister and the

There was also a stalemate on the issue of who should be the emperor’s cabinet member, leading to a stalemate..."

"..., Mr. Niu, the governor of the Jingying camp, was transferred to the governor of Xuanda. The position of the military governor of the Jingying camp is still vacant. It seems that the Supreme Emperor is not happy about this..., and it is said that Prince Zhongshun also had a quarrel with Prince Yizhong.

It's a little unpleasant, but you say, under such circumstances, does the Emperor still have the mind to consider who will succeed you as the Salt Censor of the Huaihe River?"

After all, Lin Ruhai is in Yangzhou. Although some important and sensitive news from the DPRK can be quickly transmitted to Yangzhou, so many vacancies in the imperial court cannot be created in one day. However, when these things are connected together, it may be a bit intriguing.

"Uncle, you are a fan of the authorities. The opening of the sea seems to have both the north and the south, but in fact it involves a wide range of interests. No one can say who will benefit more from it. So what is the best way at this time? Of course it is

Let's take a look at it later. Do you think that by acting rashly at this time, you are not giving others a handle and becoming the target of public criticism? "

Feng Ziying did not say who would be the target of public criticism, but Lin Ruhai knew clearly that under such circumstances, the Supreme Emperor would have to make careful considerations, especially when everyone was looking at what the move to open the sea would bring.
