Chapter 1655 Lin Ruhai: Or is this the reincarnation of cause and effect, retribution?
Ningguo Mansion, Grand View Garden, Cucui Temple
Jia Heng was chatting with Miaoyu and Momo, with a smile on his face.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he stretched out an arm and gently hugged Miaoyu's shoulder. He looked at his cute and cute daughter and said, "You shouldn't be too aggressive with our Momo.
It’s small, it’ll be fine if it’s bigger.”
Miaoyu's eyes were as bright as water, and she said angrily, "Just pamper her every day."
Her daughter is becoming more and more naughty, and she doesn't know what kind of temper she will grow into.
Jia Heng stretched out his hand, gently took Miaoyu's delicate hand, and said warmly: "This is my precious daughter, how could I not pamper her?"
And Xing Xiuyan was not far away, holding Jia Heng's son Jia Meng, with a look of envy on his eyebrows as if they were coming out of the clouds.
Jia Heng gently pinched Miaoyu's smooth and tender chin, brought it to the plump and bright lips, pressed them together, and inhaled the clear and sweet breath.
Under Miaoyu's emerald willow eyebrows, her crystal clear beautiful eyes were soft and slightly moist, and she said in a trembling voice: "The child is still here."
Jia Heng said: "They are still young, what can they understand?"
Miaoyu pushed Jia Heng's hand away with a blushing face, snorted softly, and said vaguely: "Don't teach the child bad things later."
On the other side, Xing Xiuyan, whose face was as white as snow and as red as clouds, hugged Jia Mo, who was peeping with wide-eyed eyes, and quickly walked out of the wing.
Jia Heng, who was on the other side of the room, gently took Miaoyu's slender hand and said nothing else. With warm eyes, he whispered: "Let's go to the inner room to talk."
As he spoke, Jia Heng took Miaoyu's slender hand and entered the inner compartment.
The moon is bright in late autumn, and the bright white moonlight shines on the earth like a gauze and mist. The autumn wind blows through the courtyard and corridors, and you can hear the lanterns in the corridors.
…
…
Time flies, the years fly by, and half a month has passed before you know it.
As the new emperor ascended to the throne and Jia Heng was granted the title of Assistant King, the power of Jia Heng in the entire court became more and more intense.
Within a period of time, the two mansions of Rongning and Ning were bustling with people.
Jia Heng stood in an empty hall, stared at Chen Xiao, and asked: "The official document has been sent to Nan Province. Li Shouzhong will serve as the governor of Liangjiang and manage the affairs of Nan Province."
Chen Xiao nodded and asked: "Has the selection of Li Shouzhong as governor of Liangjiang and governor of Anhui been finalized?"
Jia Heng shook his head, with a thoughtful look on his face, and said: "Look at the situation, we are still a little short of manpower here."
Although he controlled the affairs of the court, his background was still shallow, and the civil servants who came close to him were not very useful.
Under Chen Xiaocui's rosy eyebrows, her bright eyes sparkled, and she said: "There is now another vacancy in the cabinet. In addition, there is also a vacancy in the post of General Constitution of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Who will take over?"
Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "I don't have any suitable candidates now. When my uncle comes over, I will see if he has any good candidates to recommend."
Lin Ruhai has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is from a serious family background, so he should be of the same age.
In fact, today, he still has not taken a clear-cut stand to usurp the throne of the Chen Han clan, and has not lost his moral integrity.
Now he still can't get in.
Of course, anyone with a discerning eye can also see that with his power, he could only usurp and support the Han Dynasty in a single thought.
Now it is time to make the Han Dynasty prosperous and win over the people and their hearts.
It took five to ten years to cultivate popularity in the court, and then he would be able to succeed the Han Dynasty.
Just when Jia Heng's mind was ups and downs, a beautiful maid entered the study and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin is here."
Hearing this, Jia Heng looked at Chen Xiao aside and whispered: "Xiaoxiao, my uncle is here. I'll go over and take a look."
While talking, he left the beautifully decorated study room, came to the flower hall in the front yard, and raised his eyes to look at Lin Ruhai.
"Uncle." Jia Heng called out first, his eyes warm.
Lin Ruhai looked solemn and said: "Ziyu, the three million stone grain from the Ministry of Household Affairs has been allocated to Taiyuan, and the disaster situation in Shanxi has been greatly alleviated."
Jia Heng nodded and said with a brisk tone: "With this batch of grain allocated by the imperial court, the disaster situation in Shanxi will be alleviated a lot."
Lin Ruhai hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "On the way to Beijing, I heard that Mr. Li Ge from the cabinet and Mr. Xu from the Metropolitan Procuratorate were imprisoned for deposing the establishment?"
Jia Heng said: "Li and Xu incited the soldiers in the capital to rebel, kidnapped Concubine Rong's son, and deposed Guangzong's son."
Lin Ruhai raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't Ziyu let the son of Guangzong go?"
Jia Heng shook his head and said: "I don't want to tell the truth. Li Zan has a reputation for being upright and upright throughout the country. Since I used the excuse that Guangzong's son is not of Chen's blood, I will choose a new king just to avoid telling the truth."
.”
Lin Ruhai frowned and said warmly: "This way, it is feasible."
Now, in the past one or two years, the imperial court has changed three emperors. It can be said that the country is in turmoil and people are uneasy.
Silence appeared on Lin Ruhai's elegant face, and she said: "Zi Yu, will the political turmoil in the DPRK shake the hearts of the local governors?"
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "That's not true. Although the center is in turmoil now, its prestige has not diminished but increased."
Of course, this so-called central authority is more about his authority.
Jia Heng collected his thoughts and said: "Now in the cabinet, Qi Ge Lao is temporarily in charge of cabinet affairs, while my uncle is the second assistant and handles local and provincial government affairs with the cabinet members."
Lin Ruhai thought for a while and said: "There is currently a cabinet member missing in the cabinet. Now we should fill it in to help manage affairs."
Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "In this matter, I am also considering the candidates for cabinet ministers and censor Zongxian. Does my uncle have any recommendations?"
Because Jia Heng is now the auxiliary king and can even act on behalf of the emperor, the appointment of these cabinet ministers is not decided through court discussion.
Lin Ruhai thought for a while and said: "I am reminded of a person, Yu Xianmin, the chief envoy of Shandong. When he was in power in Shandong, he enforced the law impartially."
Jia Heng said: "Xianmin Yu?"
Lin Ruhai's face became solemn and he said in a low voice: "He is from the same year that I became a subject and has been moving around for many years."
Jia Heng thought for a while, and then he said thoughtfully on his fair and slightly jade face: "In this case, the Chief Envoy Yu can be allowed to serve as the left deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and stay in the capital.
The procuratorate is familiar with the inspection and impeachment matters, and then takes charge of the Xiansi Yamen."
Lin Ruhai nodded, with a lot of joy in his eyes, and said: "What Zi Yu said is true."
Jia Heng said: "Uncle, now that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, there are a lot of discussions in the court. My uncle in the cabinet should take more care of the overall situation."
Lin Ruhai said: "Ziyu, don't worry."
After Jia Heng said this, he immediately said nothing else and asked: "Who do you think should be the replacement for the cabinet minister?"
Lin Ruhai twirled a few strands of beard under his chin with his hands. A look of thought could be seen on his fair and elegant face. He said warmly: "There is still one missing person among the five cabinet members, Zi Yu. We can leave the vacancy temporarily to select those who have contributed to the implementation of the New Deal in the past."
Officials are used to win people's hearts."
Jia Heng said: "Uncle Lin's words are reasonable. That's what I meant."
Lin Ruhai sighed with emotion and whispered: "Ziyu is now in charge of national affairs and will do great things in the future."
Jia Heng said: "The big men in the future still need my uncle and I to cooperate sincerely and do our best."
It can be said that today's Han Dynasty is a test subject for a literati to realize his political ideals.
Lin Ruhai also felt a surge of heroism in his heart and said, "Don't worry, Ziyu."
Jia Heng said loudly: "When the imperial court regains its strength in two more years, we can send troops and horses to sweep across the Western Regions and Tibet, and spread the power of our great Han Dynasty outside the region."
Lin Ruhai asked: "What about the land of South Vietnam?"
Jia Heng said: "This is the hometown of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and it must be recovered. From then on, my Han soldiers and horses sailed along the sea, escorting the maritime trade routes, and they also have a place to park."
Lin Ruhai looked thoughtful and asked: "Zi Yu, didn't you say before that the navy would have an independent navy?"
Jia Heng said: "My uncle is right. The Jiangnan Navy and the Denglai Navy can respectively expand their navies. The Guangdong Navy can also be converted into a navy to conquer the Southeast Asian countries. The navies should be in addition to the six departments of the imperial court.
Create an additional Admiralty Department."
Lin Ruhai nodded and said: "It is necessary to set up a special department to coordinate and dispatch the entire navy of the Han Dynasty."
Jia Heng said: "That's exactly what I meant. After the nine border armies in the north are abolished, the military expenditure saved by the court can be invested in the preparation of the navy."
Lin Ruhai nodded.
He is a household official, so he must be deeply involved.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said: "Uncle, there is also a happy event that I want to tell my uncle."
Lin Ruhai's fair and elegant face couldn't help but look surprised, and asked: "Zi Yu, I don't know what is going on?"
Jia Heng said with a hint of joy in his voice: "Uncle, Sister Lin is pregnant."
In the future, he will need supporters in the civil servant camp, so he cannot do without Lin Ruhai. In other words, he needs a civil servant cabinet like Lin Ruhai to help him handle national affairs.
And what relationship is more intimate than the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law?
Lin Ruhai felt as if he was struck by lightning when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Ziyu, is this true?"
Jia Heng said: "Uncle, just yesterday, the Tai Hospital had already diagnosed it. It is undoubtedly a happy pulse."
Lin Ruhai couldn't wait to get up and said, "I'll go to the backyard and take a look."
Jia Heng smiled, stood up, and led the way first, leading Lin Ruhai towards the back house.
Grand View Garden, Xiaoxiang Pavilion
Daiyu was currently sitting on a bed covered with a mattress, leaning on the side of the bed, holding a thin book in her hand and flipping through it gently.
And Xiangyun and Baoqin were separated by a square of chessboard, with two plump, lovely faces full of blush on both sides, as bright as peaches, and radiant.
Xiangyun joked and asked: "Sister Lin, have you prepared the children's clothes in the past few days?"
Daiyu snorted and said, "What clothes are you preparing? I also want you to sew them for me."
Xiangyun pouted slightly and said, "I can sew, but I don't necessarily know whether it's a boy or a girl."
Daiyu's face, which was as white as snow, turned red with shame.
At this moment, Xiren quickly entered the hall and said, "Girl, Mr. Lin is here."
As soon as these words came out, Daiyu's crystal clear heart couldn't help being startled. She followed the sound and looked at the young man in the python suit, saying: "Brother Heng is here, eh? Daddy?"
Lin Ruhai had a kind smile on her face and said: "Yu'er, I heard from Ziyu that you are pregnant recently?"
When Daiyu was asked so straightforwardly, her clear and jade-like cheeks turned as red as clouds, glowing like fire, and she whispered: "Dad, the imperial doctor has confirmed that it is the Xi pulse. It has been for more than a month."
.”
"Okay, okay." Lin Ruhai said happily.
Daiyu said: "Sister-in-law Feng has made all the arrangements."
Lin Ruhai calmed down and warned again: "Yu'er, your body bones have been weaker since you were a child. You should take good care of yourself these two days."
Daiyu bit her pink lips and said, "Sister-in-law Feng has made all the arrangements."
Hearing this, Jia Heng looked at the father and daughter talking non-stop, his eyes flickered slightly, and he felt a little happy in his heart.
Lin Ruhai gave Dai Yu a thousand warnings and instructions, and after a while, Fang quickly walked outside without finishing her thoughts.
Then, Jia Heng and Lin Ruhai came to the hall and sat down. Xiren brought a blue and white porcelain tea cup. The steam was steaming, and the aroma could be seen rising.
Lin Ruhai was elegant and could not hide the smile on her fair face, and said: "Zi Yu, you have to take good care of Yu'er."
Jia Heng smiled slightly and said: "Uncle, don't worry, now that Sister Lin is pregnant, I will definitely take good care of her."
Lin Ruhai nodded, his eyes were dazed, and he murmured: "How happy would Yu'er's mother be if she knew that Yu'er was pregnant now."
Seeing this, Jia Heng sighed quietly in his heart.
Fast forward a few years, and the orphan girl who came to Beijing at the age of five is now going to be a mother.
Weng and son-in-law were talking.
At this time, Zicuckoo entered the hall and said: "Your Majesty, Master, the lady has prepared a sumptuous dinner. I invite you and Mr. Lin to sit down and have a meal together."
Lin Ruhai nodded after hearing this.
At this moment, Daiyu was already Xiren, and with the support of Xueyan, she sat down beside a red lacquered round wooden table, surrounded by Xiangyun and Baoqin, one wearing a vermilion dress and the other a plain white dress.
, the skin is better than snow and as bright as clouds.
Daiyu was sitting not far away. Under her emerald willow eyebrows, her shining starry eyes seemed to be smiling. She stretched out her hand and said, "Father, Brother Heng, come and sit here."
Jia Heng nodded and said nothing else. He immediately came closer. At this moment, Xi Ren handed over a pair of chopsticks knowingly.
Jia Heng smiled and joked: "Why don't Sister Lin lie on the bed and rest a little longer?"
Daiyu rolled her eyes at Jia Heng and said, "I'm hungry here, so I can't stay in bed all the time."
Besides, this is not as difficult as having a big belly.
Jia Heng nodded, picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks, picked up the dishes in the bowl, gently handed it to Daiyu's bowl, and said: "Sister Lin, use some of this to replenish your health."
When Daiyu heard this, her face as white as snow turned red with shame, and under Chunshan's dark eyebrows, her bright star eyes shone like rainbows.
Jia Heng finished his meal in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and followed Lin Ruhai out of the wing. The two of them walked along the corridor towards the front yard.
Under the light of the red and green corridor, Lin Ruhai glanced at the young man in the python suit and suddenly said: "Ziyu, do you intend to stand on behalf of the Chen family?"
Jia Heng was not surprised when he heard this and said, "Why did uncle say this?"
Lin Ruhai stood by the octagonal pavilion with double eaves and hooked corners, looked straight at Jia Heng and said, "Zi Yu, isn't it?"
Jia Heng looked solemn, raised his sword-shaped eyebrows and said: "My uncle has seen it. It's just that Chen Han has been a country for a hundred years, and his favor has spread widely at home and abroad. There are countless people with lofty ideals in and outside the court, most of whom are devoted to Chen Han and want to
Carrying out the work of replacing the Han Dynasty cannot be accomplished overnight."
Lin Ruhai said: "Zi Yu, just have an idea."
Jia Heng said: "It takes five to ten years to cultivate popularity and gradually conquer the world."
In other words, he is in no rush to usurp the throne. The current new emperor was originally his illegitimate son.
Lin Ruhai frowned and asked again: "If it is delayed for too long, how will the world regard it?"
Jia Heng said: "No, in five to ten years, I will definitely cultivate cronies and organize party members. By then, most of the local prefectures and counties, both inside and outside the government, will be members of the Jia family, and they will respond to every call."
"
Lin Ruhai said: "Just like this, how do people in the world view Zi Yu?"
After all, the late emperor was very kind to Jia Heng.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Before this, when the time is right, I will first take over my original surname."
Lin Ruhai said in surprise: "My real name?"
Jia Heng looked pale and said, "I am not from the Jia clan."
Lin Ruhai: "???"
Jia Heng said this and told Lin Ruhai all about his life experience.
When Lin Ruhai heard this, his face changed and he remained silent for a long time.
Jia Heng said: "Uncle."
Lin Ruhai suddenly realized, looked at Jia Heng aggressively, and said: "Zi Yu turns out to be the son of the deposed crown prince of the Longzhi Dynasty."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and said with nostalgia in his voice: "Yes, my father was implicated in the case of deposing the crown prince and was executed by the whole family."
Hearing this, Lin Ruhai seemed to have some memories on his face and said, "There is such a thing."
So the Ziyu in front of me is a descendant of Su Ming, so is today's usurpation of Chen Han's world also some kind of fate?
Lin Ruhai frowned and lowered his eyes, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Or is this the reincarnation of cause and effect, retribution?
