Chapter 427: Lin Ruhai wants to return to Beijing, the Daming Palace is in turmoil
"Mr. Lin, everything has been packed!"
In Suzhou, Jiangnan, Yu Enguo opened the government office's study room. Recently, Lin Ruhai stayed in Jiangnan to deal with the closing matters of the White Lotus Sect and the Zhen family, and has been temporarily staying in the Suzhou magistrate's office.
I just finished all the remaining things today. Yu Enguo has been very diligent in coming here these days. After all, something like this happened in Jiangnan, and he also knows that he is to blame this time. As for how the court will deal with him, it depends
How did Lin Ruhai break up with the court?
"By the way, Mr. Lin, something big happened in the imperial court. Have you heard about it?" Yu Enguo came to the house, found a place to sit down, and said.
While Lin Ruhai was gathering various materials on the desk, he asked Yu Enguo: "Prefect Yu, I wonder which one you are talking about? Lin has indeed heard a lot about things in the capital!"
Yu Enguo glanced around the room subconsciously, and then said: "It's the matter of the King of Turpan. I heard that the people who the King of Turpan came to Beijing to meet were killed less than thirty miles outside the capital. It's really shocking.
ah!!"
"It's thirty miles away from the capital. If you get closer, you'll be at the feet of the emperor! I don't know that the thief dares to be so arrogant. After hearing this, my heart is still trembling!!"
Lin Ruhai kept moving his hands, it was obvious that he had heard about this matter before.
"Prefect Yu, what do you have to worry about? Even if something does happen, Datong, Shaanxi Province is the only place to worry about. After all, it's closer to Turpan. As long as the court reacts, it's just a tiny place.
, can’t make any waves!”
When Lin Ruhai said this, the depths of his eyes kept flashing. This time, Lin Ruhai did not tell the truth.
He also accelerated the progress because he suddenly heard this information. At this time, the court was facing an unusual situation.
The vassal king went to court and was killed outside the capital. This time the court was covered in yellow mud, and it was either shit or shit.
And the person who did it has not found out yet, and it has been two or three days since the incident, which is not a good sign.
Once the nearby small countries hear about this, I am afraid that the possibility of surrendering without a fight will be gone. If they are instigated by someone with ulterior motives, they will probably attack in groups.
As for the current situation of the Dakang court, it was openly discussed in the court a year ago.
In the 15th year of Mingkang, the annual balance was only 50,000 taels of silver. For a huge imperial court, such a surplus could be said to have almost nothing left.
If there is another drought or disaster in the beginning of spring, I am afraid it will become unmanageable, let alone a war. [Fastest.Update.At.Co
The huge fronts in northern and southern Xinjiang have already made it impossible for the Dakang court to support them any longer.
Fortunately, Jia Qi ended the war in Northern Xinjiang in just three years. Otherwise, the consequences would have continued to expand. It is even said that within a few years, the imperial court's overall armaments would not be able to keep up. If there was another war, the only outcome would be surrender.
.
Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but feel chills in his heart. If that time really comes, Dakang's demise may not be far away!
"By the way, Sir, will you take the dirty silver obtained from the extermination of the White Lotus Sect and the Zhen Family with you??"
Then Yu Enguo seemed to think of something again and asked again.
This time, the suppression of bandits in the south of the Yangtze River was very fruitful, with a total of four and a half million taels of silver.
Lin Ruhai glanced at Yu Enguo and said in a rather strange tone: "Prefect Yu wants to keep some for himself??"
When Yu Enguo heard this, he quickly waved his hand. This kind of thing was a hot potato. Unless Lin Ruhai wanted it himself and gave it to them in order to seal the deal, he would definitely die if he stretched out his hand.
"Master Lin, you are kidding me. How could a subordinate do such a thing!!"
Lin Ruhai sighed softly, "It's best this way. This batch of money has already been secretly delivered to the emperor by Lin. Even if there is a penny missing, I'm afraid the higher-ups will investigate it. The Jiangnan incident can have such a result now. I
Just have some fun, the prefect!"
"If the champion Hou Shenbing hadn't descended from the sky and cut through the mess with a sharp sword, if those firearms had exploded in the downtown area of Suzhou and I had been dismissed from office, Prefect Yu would have killed everyone in his family!!"
Seeing Lin Ruhai say this, Yu Enguo stood up quickly and said that he had absolutely no wrongdoing. He expressed his gratitude to the champion Hou Jiaqi and said a series of good words before he stopped silently.
Lin Ruhai knew the other party's intention, so he added another sentence at the end.
"Don't worry, Magistrate Yu. I have already prepared a plan for every situation during this trip to the south of the Yangtze River. When the emperor asks questions, I will say a few words of kindness to Magistrate Yu. I will treat it as if you and I are supporting each other during this period."
It’s appropriate!”
When Yu Enguo heard this, he was immediately elated. Lin Ruhai's words made him even happier than the reward of one thousand and twenty thousand taels of silver.
"Lord Lin, thank you very much for this! Your Majesty's kindness will be greatly appreciated by my subordinates, and I will tie a grass ring to repay you!!"
After saying that, Yu Enguo kept going straight to the end.
Seeing this, Lin Ruhai nodded.
"In that case, Lin is just telling the truth!"
As long as it does not violate the truth of the incident, Lin Ruhai will not care about this trivial matter. After all, the other party has only been working as the prefect for one year and will stay in Suzhou for several more years!"
Not to mention my own clansmen and the old house in my house all need this person’s care, and he is willing to sell this person a favor!”
To put it bluntly, these are some of the ways of being an official in the officialdom, but some of the details are not easy to grasp.
If you pass it, you may become a corrupt official. If you have nothing, you may not be able to survive. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. Everyone knows this truth.
"But there is one more thing that I would like to trouble Magistrate Yu to take care of!"
Then Lin Ruhai mentioned another thing.
Yu Enguo accepted Lin Ruhai's favor and naturally responded to Lin Ruhai's requests. [Fastest.Updated.At.Co
"Master Lin, no matter what you say, I will definitely do it! Just do it!!"
Lin Ruhai sighed, "It's my father-in-law's family in the capital, a brother from the Duke of Rongguo, named Jia Lian, who came to Jiangnan to purchase goods under the order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Originally, I planned to go back with him.
But the time required for his purchase is endless. Such a big event happened in Beijing, and I can't delay. I can only take the first step!"
Hearing this, Yu Enguo was stunned and said, "But the Champion Hou, the Hou Ye's own family??"
Lin Ruhai shook her head, "No, the champion is a descendant of Duke Ning, and Jia Lian is the elder brother of Duke Rong. However, I can't write two characters of Jia in one stroke. One generation higher, we are still the same family!"
Hearing that the other party was somewhat involved with Jia Qi, Yu Enguo immediately patted his chest and promised to take good care of the young master Jia Lian who came from the Duke of Rong's mansion.
After receiving Yu Enguo's assurance, Lin Ruhai put the matter aside for the time being. However, there must be a cause and a result. Originally, Jia Lian was a prodigal son who couldn't control his lower body. Now with Yu Enguo's care, after returning to Beijing,
At that time, it caused some trouble. This matter is discussed later and will not be mentioned for the time being.
Beijing, Daming Palace.
In the imperial study room, almost all the empresses came over.
There were also a group of imperial doctors from the imperial hospital outside. Dai Quan and Xu Yuantu were also at the scene, but Xu Yuantu was hiding in the dark, secretly protecting Emperor Mingkang's safety.
The incident of Emperor Mingkang's fainting caused the entire Daming Palace to panic. Even Emperor Taikang sent Xia Cheng to inquire about the situation.
I went back after hearing Wang Linfu say that he had fainted due to a sudden attack of the heart, and that he would be fine after a short rest.
"Dai Quan, what's going on? Why did the emperor weigh it down??"
Fan Zhixuan had a cold look on her face. So many things had happened during this period, and she was mentally and physically exhausted. It was only after Jia Qi returned to Beijing a few days ago that he warmed up her body that she managed to recover.
Who knew something like this would happen again today.
In the side hall, in addition to Fan Zhixuan, there are also concubines Shu, Concubine Yi and other concubines. Dai Quan still feels uncomfortable when seeing them on weekdays.
What do you think? It's just that today, all these people are sitting here, which puts a lot of pressure on him.
However, he couldn't tell the reason for Emperor Mingkang's fainting. Several princes were involved in the matter. If he told it, it would be a shocking matter. He still knew the right rules here.
At this moment, the eunuch's duck-like shout came from outside the room.
"The Queen, the eldest prince, the second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince would like to meet you!!" [Fastest. Update. At.Co
When Dai Quan heard this, he lowered his head calmly.
These guys came quite quickly.
He guessed that these princes might have guessed something!
After all, this time, Xu Yuantu and the others investigated the matter and did not cover it up.
"What are they doing here??"
Fan Zhixuan frowned and sounded impatient.
Although she does not have a prince, she knows that these princes are not honest in private, especially the second child Chu Qian, who is very close to the four princes and eight princes. This time, the incident of Emperor Mingkang's fainting is probably related to the affair with the camp in the suburbs of Beijing.
Things are related.
"Sister, Ye'er and the others also care about the emperor! After all, the emperor is their father. How can a son not care about his father!!"
The person who spoke was the mother-in-law of the third prince Chu Ye. When she heard that her child had come over, she naturally wanted to say a few words for him.
"Tell them that the emperor will wake up soon. Let them go to the East Side Hall to wait. It will be enough to leave the imperial doctor here. It will be inconvenient if there are too many people!"
Fan Zhixuan thought for a while and did not let them in. Now before Emperor Mingkang woke up, she naturally had to find ways to protect his safety. There should not be too many people here.
If something happened all of a sudden, it would be bad if there were too many people. Over the years in the palace, she had seen a lot of this kind of fishing in troubled waters, and she had even heard of it. Many times, those ladies who were pregnant with dragon heirs
