It's really exciting to run after grabbing the male supporting role [Quick wear]
Chapter 57 The Double is Also Merry
"Then I'll have someone bring things here?" Lin Su asked softly.
Qing Tang didn't answer, Lin Su kissed him on the cheek and said: "If you don't answer, I will assume you agree."
"Master..." Qing Tang's voice was wet, obviously still embarrassed.
However, Lin Su was nimble. He just said it during the day, and all Qingtang's things had already been moved in at night, and Xikang was the one who did the work.
Now that he has made love and is in charge, he has a quick mind and can figure it out. He naturally knows Qingtang's position in Lin Su's heart, and he doesn't dare to be negligent. All the talkers below have been punished all over the place, and Qingtang can live comfortably in the mansion. a lot of.
Lin Su was going to be on duty in the court, and although Qing Tang was shy, he put away his things one by one, and even used flower petals when he took a bath.
Although the young master can't hug people, it is good to sleep in one place where everything is clean.
The heat was steaming, and the fragrance of the flowers was pleasant. Qing Tang grabbed a handful of petals and rubbed them on his arm, and then smelled them after rubbing them. After confirming that there was a slight fragrance, he wiped his face with one hand.
I don't know whether it is hot or shy on the face, in short, I am ashamed of my behavior and want to do it.
The sound of water splashing caused the subtle sound of the door being pushed open to not reach Qingtang's ears clearly. When Lin Su entered the door, he had already heard someone say that Qingtang was taking a bath, and he had been taking a bath for almost half an hour.
Deliberately walking lightly, Lin Su did not disturb the person who was taking a bath when he walked around the screen. The young man's bones were still slender amidst the steam, and the water droplets snaked along the skin on his back, pink and translucent. The color of the petals soaked in.
Qing Tang Aimei, after being with Lin Su, she paid more attention to making every part of herself perfect. She always washed her hair with sesame leaves, so it was black and shiny, and she didn't walk around casually at sunrise. Even if you go out, you have to bring an umbrella. As for the skin, although some makeup powders in this era are good, the effect is not as good as the cream made by Lin Su himself. Qing Tang uses it every day. pretty.
The man is lustful, and Qing Tang naturally did not make an exception for Lin Su. The reason why he pays so much attention is really clear at a glance, but since he likes Lin Su, he supports it. After all, beauty is not exclusive to women.
Qing Tang finally took care of himself, took a deep breath and turned around, but saw the peeping person through the water mist, he subconsciously submerged in the water, his eyes were wet with water vapor: "Master!!! You, Why are you here?!"
"I'm peeping." Lin Su was very upright, and incidentally stood up straight from the posture of leaning on the screen.
"A gentleman should not look at evil..." Qingtang's lips trembled, not knowing whether to condemn him or to be shy, his mind was so entangled that he even wanted to slap the water.
"Being a gentleman is not such a blessing." Lin Su grabbed his wrist and pulled him to his eyes. "Then I will not be a gentleman in the future. It is also very good to be a villain for Xiao Qingtang."
"Didn't Qingtang miss the young master?" Qingtang's voice was also wet.
Lin Su smiled and said, "It's not the beauty's fault, but the young master's fault that I can't control my lust."
The sound of his words pierced his ears, and Qingtang felt itching in his palms, feet, and heart all the way to his heart. He raised his head and said, "Master, can you..."
kiss me.
Before he finished speaking, Lin Su had already put his arms around his back and kissed his lips, completely ignoring the wetness of his clothes, being a gentleman.
As soon as the kiss was over, Qingtang's chest heaved and he submerged himself in the water, leaving only the mouth above: "Master, go out and change first, Qingtang will come out later."
After finishing speaking, his mouth did not enter the water, leaving only his eyes blinking and blinking.
Lin Su directly took off his outer robe and wrung it dry, without staying any longer, he just smiled and said: "Don't choke yourself, come out quickly."
He turned to leave, Qing Tang raised his head from the water, touched his lips, he was crazy.
He used to hate things with men in the men's house, and he was terrified just by mentioning it, but now he longed for it just by being kissed.
If it is with the young master, he is actually willing to do it, even if it hurts a little bit, he is willing to let the blood flow into rivers as Jiaoyin said.
It's a pity that the young master can't be like others in this life, but just like this, he is also content.
Qing Tang stepped out of the bathtub and put on light clothes. When he turned around the screen, Lin Su was sitting by the bed reading a book and waiting for him.
Even if he couldn't do it, Qing Tang also took a deep breath and felt nervous, pretending to be calm and walked over and said: "Young master, what book are you reading after a day of tiredness?"
Lin Su looked up at him, and asked with a smile, "Curious?"
How could Qingtang be curious about the content of the book? He was just looking for something to say, but he could only continue: "Well, I wonder what book can make the young master so mesmerized."
"Your words seem to be jealous of this book." Lin Su leaned forward and hugged him in his arms.
Qingtang blushed and said, "I... have no such intention."
"Since you want to read it, let's read it together." Lin Su unfolded the book and placed it in front of his eyes. The book cover was neatly covered with miscellaneous travel notes, but the pictures in it were extremely clear, even with colored drawings, which was much better than the others. What Qingtang has seen in the waiting hall is exquisite.
Lin Su remained calm, as if he was reading some kind of historical work, and even if he was in front of outsiders, he would only think that he was hardworking, but Qing Tang was restless: "How...how could it be this kind of book?! This... ..."
"Xikang bought it as a filial piety, and now he is married. That virtuous wife is intelligent, and she gave him some pointers to make him more flexible." Lin Su stretched out his hand and scratched his chin and said, "Could it be that Qing Tang didn't Have you ever seen such an album? But why do I remember that you said to look at erotic pictures..."
His mouth was covered by Qingtang's hand. It really smelled like a scent of flowers. Qingtang bathed with flower petals for half an hour. Qingtang's face turned red: "You, don't say it!"
Besides, he was comparable to that steamed crab.
The young master looks handsome and dignified on the outside, how can he say this without the slightest hint of a literati?
"Okay, don't talk about it, we have to do it." Lin Su pulled his wrist, let go of the bed curtain and lay down with him in his arms. Knowing that our Qingtang is so impatient."
"You villain first... um..."
The book was thrown on the ground mercilessly, and the pages of the book were unfolded. If an outsider were to read it, it would really be without the decency of a scholar.
Sleeping together is sleep, but pure sleep is impossible. When Qing Tang woke up, he frowned slightly and turned over slightly, only to feel that the backache was not his own.
A warm hand caressed her waist and rubbed it gently, which made her feel a little more comfortable.
Um?one hand.
Qing Tang opened his eyes, stared blankly at the man lying beside him, subconsciously called out: "Master..."
"En." Lin Su's voice was lazier, it was the laziness of a ferocious beast being satisfied.
Qingtang's ears moved, sporadic images flashed in her mind, she turned her head and found that she was actually lying on the young master's arms: "We... you, young master, aren't you inhumane?!"
Lin Su raised his eyebrows: "When did I say I was inhumane?"
Qingtang was confused: "Didn't you say that you have... a hidden disease?"
"I remember what I said before. It's a hidden disease that can't have sex with women, but it's okay to have sex with men." Lin Su said innocently, "Xiao Qingtang will listen to everything I say next time, or you will regret it You have only yourself to blame."
Qingtang didn't regret it, he just felt that the young master who looked Yazheng seemed to be doing it on purpose: "You can't believe everything you said before, isn't it for now?"
"Xiao Qingtang is really smart, his brain turns so fast." Lin Su praised with a smile.
Qingtang patted his chest angrily: "You, how could you do this?!"
Lin Su held his hand and said directly: "I was wrong, be careful not to hurt your hands when you hit him so hard."
Qingtang was so angry that he couldn't get angry, and he forced a stomach full of candy: "Then why didn't the young master explain when I misunderstood before? I have suffered such a long time of misunderstanding for nothing."
He spoke softly, where there was no anger before.
Lin Su hugged him in his arms, patted him on the back and said, "I don't care about the young master who is misunderstood by others and wants to stay away from you, as long as you don't dislike Xiao Qingtang."
"How could Qingtang despise the young master?" Qingtang leaned into his arms and said softly, "It's just that Qingtang is a person who pushes his feet. I used to think that it would be good to be with you. Even if you marry a wife and have children, I can do it. Look, if you want to marry a wife and have children now, it is impossible, if there is a day..."
His words faltered, he looked up at Lin Su's encouraging eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "If that day comes, I will definitely die with you."
"It's impossible to die together." Lin Su raised his chin and chuckled, "It's feasible to make progress, yesterday it was only twice, today it may be three times, and tomorrow it may be four times, thirty Like a wolf, forty like a tiger, fifty..."
"Young Master!!!" Qing Tang sat up and beat him straight away, becoming really angry from embarrassment, "That's not how to make progress!"
This person is really bad.
When the two of them woke up, the sun was already high above their heads, and Qing Tang knew that Lin Su had hired Xiu Mu when he left his job yesterday.
What else did he say that he was impatient, this man was clearly prepared long ago.
"Angry? Don't be angry. The palace examination will end in a few days. How about I take you to ride a horse outside the city?" Lin Su coaxed.
Riding and archery is also one of the gentleman's six arts. Lin Su's horse riding is excellent, but Qing Tang encountered the same Waterloo as painting here.
It’s just that he looks soft on the outside, but his temper is not to admit defeat. Now that Lin Su’s painting has three points of Lin Su’s skill, it is worthwhile to show it to literati for appreciation. give up.
"Okay." Qing Tang cheered up.
It is inconvenient to learn to ride a horse in the city, it is not as spacious as the countryside, if one day I can ride with the young master, it is really arbitrariness.
The spring scientific examination is held every three years. Before the results of the palace examination are released, the people from the old Lin family house have already entered the capital. Discuss for half a point.
Father Lin got off the carriage, and when he saw Lin Su, he hardly dared to recognize him. The son in his impression was taciturn and had the most eccentric temper, but then he became sharp-tongued for some reason, and won the first prize. Father Lin I always feel that it may be shit luck.
Seeing him now, if he were on the street, he really wouldn't dare to recognize such a glorious and humble gentleman as his son: "You have changed a lot now."
"It's because His Majesty has trained well and colleagues have influenced each other." Lin Su said with a smile.
The stepmother also got out of the car, and when he saw Lin Su, he had the same feeling as Lin's father: "Zhiyuan now looks like a high-ranking official."
"Mother said cautiously, there are many officials in Beijing, many of them are better than those in Zhiyuan. If mother doesn't think about Zhiyuan, she should also think about Wang'er. If you cause a rift before you become a Jinshi, you will suffer in the future. .” Lin Su reminded with a smile.
Lin Wang, the step-in-law's son, is only fifteen years old this year, and has yet to pass the provincial examination, so she can't be called a Jinshi. Although she knows that Lin Su's family property will be inherited by her son in the future, it can be seen that when she sees him, she is out of habit and unconsciously. I want to make a few jokes.
"Brother." Lin Wang looked upright, and there was nothing wrong with his salute. Looking at his attitude, he was much more sober than his stepmother.
Lin Su nodded and said: "This is not a place to talk, let's ask father to go home and settle down before we can talk."
The group got into the carriage, and when they arrived at the Lin family's mansion, Qing Tang greeted them: "The young master is back."
The stepmother got off the car, she had never seen Qi Qingyi before, and said with a polite smile: "Zhiyuan, which official's young master is this, he looks really handsome."
Father Lin met Qi Qingyi by chance, and saw that the two of them behaved intimately, did not shy away from others, and wanted to say a few words, but thought of his son's body, so he could only say with a serious face: "What little master, this is Zhiyuan Courtyard people here."
"I have met Mrs. Madam." Qing Tang saluted with a deep breath, well-behaved, without arrogance, "I am Qing Tang, and now I follow the young master's surname, and my name is Lin Qingtang."
The step-room, however, understood the meaning of Master Lin's words, his complexion changed, and he coughed and said, "It turned out to be a servant, what about you and mine, it's nothing..."
Her gaze met Lin Su's, and she swallowed the words in her throat instantly.
A group of people entered the Lin family's mansion, the yard five entered was really spacious, the second room entered the inner courtyard, tea and food were all ready, Qing Tang smiled and said: "Master and Madam are tired from traveling, please wash up and have dinner."
The step-wife just got Lin Su's cold stare, so she didn't dare to say anything to Lin Su, she just went to Qing Tang: "You are a servant, do you dare to meddle in the affairs of the master's family?"
Qingtang tightened her fingers, and was about to speak, but Lin Su pressed her shoulder and said coldly: "Mother is really very powerful now."
His smiling face outside the door had completely disappeared, and his eyes were looking at the back of his step-room, and he said quite confidently: "I'm right..."
"Mother is wrong. Qing Tang is in charge of the family affairs, not as a steward, but as the head of the house." Lin Su said bluntly, "Although he has no status now, he is a wife in Zhiyuan's heart, and he will come to Zhiyuan in the future." I will also ask His Majesty to marry him to me if I have achieved merit, and I hope my mother will know."
"He is a man, how can he be a wife?!" Father Lin patted the table and said, "The world is divided into yin and yang, and yin and yang are the way to reconcile. If two yangs meet, they will overflow!"
Lin Su sneered: "Father's words are interesting. You can ask whose daughter is willing to marry a man from the sky, if she is willing to marry, in the future my real estate shop will also be my wife's closest, maybe it won't be my younger brother's turn." gone."
Lin Wang stood aside, obviously still shocked by the relationship between Lin Su and Qing Tang. Hearing this, he said: "Father, mother calm down, elder brother is also helpless, father is kind, and will not bear elder brother's life alone, no one to rely on Yes, although I am a younger brother, I will marry a wife in the future, so I cannot always take care of her."
"Wang'er is a sensible person." Lin Su held Qingtang's shoulders and said, "Father said that yin and yang are compatible. Now I am yin and he is yang, which is exactly the same. It is the duty of a son to support parents, but if Staying in Hai'er's house made the two feel unhappy, so they had to move out. After all, this house was bestowed by His Majesty, and the baby can't move, so naturally he can only do things loyal to the emperor. After cleaning your hands, you can eat and rest Well, the boy will take his leave first."
"You!" Father Lin was very angry.
The stepmother's complexion is also extremely pale, if she is kicked out, she will lose all face: "Master, what should we do now? That one is from a young man."
"It's all right for him to find a man, what kind of wife is he? If others find out that my Lin family has found a young lady to be the young wife, it will be a shame!" Father Lin threw the cup out angrily.
Lin Su brought Qing Tang out, and just after turning the corner, he saw the fragments of the cup flying out, Qing Tang subconsciously shuddered, and when he got out of the courtyard, he sighed and said, "I still bothered the young master. "
He has a bad background, no matter how much he uses literature to cover it up, no matter how good he is at the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the six arts of a gentleman, he can't cover up the fact that he was born in a palace.
Ordinary people are ashamed of them, let alone officials.
"How could you choose your own background?" Lin Su didn't show any anger on his face, he just flicked his head and said, "If they are in your position, they may not live a better life than you."
"Then what should we do now?" Seeing that he was not angry, Qing Tang was also angry.
He used to go through a lot of gossip when he was in crisis and he didn't know how to cry, but now he got what he wanted, and he didn't care about the opinions of insignificant people, even if they were the young master's parents.
"It's just a matter of saving face. You are in charge of everything in the house. If your stepmother asks you, don't bother with her. See you if you want, and see if you don't want to. If you are really wronged, let me know." Lin Lin Su took his hand and walked through the yard without any hesitation.
The servants who come and go have long been used to it, and they all walk forward with their heads bowed, without saying anything.
Lin Su talked to him, but he didn't see any response. When he turned his head, he smiled at Shang Qingtang's admiring eyes: "What are you looking at?"
"Although the young master has a better background than others, his situation is also extremely bad. If the young master is in my position, he will be able to save himself without the help of others. The young master is Qing Tang's role model." Qing Tang laughed.
Lin Su was stunned for a moment. If he was in his position, he would definitely not be subjected to that torture. He would directly change his clothing and clothes to stay away from that place, change his name and surname, and start over from scratch in a place where no one knew him.
But Qingtang used to be not as endless as he was, and always found a way to get out of trouble. As for now: "If you are still in that situation now, you can redeem yourself by performing arts instead of selling yourself."
"Qingtang is able to have what he is today, thanks to the young master." Qing Tang smiled, "The young master is also tired today, but you want me to go back and give you a shoulder squeeze to relieve your fatigue?"
"Xiaoqing Tang was already so virtuous before she became the mistress. If she really married into the family, Lin's life would be enough." Lin Su hooked the tip of his nose and said.
Qingtang smiled, but followed behind him and said: "Actually, it is enough for now, young master doesn't need to ask the emperor for my affairs, and give people in the world a reason to talk. Young master thinks that I am a wife, and I am a wife."
Lin Su said with a smile: "Didn't you always say that you are greedy and push every inch? You don't have to back down or worry about this matter. You are my wife in my heart, but if you want everyone in the world to recognize you as my wife, you must be my wife." Sit in that position, be my wife justifiably, and not let others criticize me at all. Since ancient times, the thing of favoring concubines and destroying wives is because of partiality in my heart, and I believe that all of them are insignificant. It’s the scene that speaks beautifully, but it may not be able to be fulfilled, don’t just listen with your ears, see with your eyes, I will do what I say.”
He said it lightly, not like a pledge of eternal love, but it made Qing Tang feel that his heart had been shocked.
He has also read the story books, and knows that his heart is wrong, and he has heard rumors that love is timeless when he is unmarried, but it is not appropriate after marriage. Only the young master is different from them. If a promise is made, it is a real promise.
What made him enamored was not how good the young master said. Although he would be agitated by those words, he knew that what he admired from the very beginning was what the young master was doing. Looking at him made me feel satisfied.
"Then I'll watch." Qingtang stood on the spot, watched his back after a few steps away, ran to his side in small steps, held his hanging hand and said.
After the palace examination was over, the Hanlin Academy added new members. The people who entered the Imperial Academy with Lin Su had to take the exam again before they were assigned to various positions in the court, and Lin Su's official rank had already been separated.
Although it was filled by the court, Emperor Zhaoyang was still not so satisfied: "The new ones are all immature in means, and the papers they submit every day are concerned about the country and the people, but few of the suggestions they put forward can be implemented. If they can Just like Lin Aiqing."
"If they are all like ministers, His Majesty will have a headache." Lin Su said respectfully.
06 nodded again and again: 【I will definitely lose the throne. 】
A host is a thousand-year-old fox. If the entire court is like a host, the original world will be blown up.
Emperor Zhaoyang also felt that Lin Su was enough: "What Aiqing said is also reasonable."
"That's right," Lin Su said calmly, "Although the new recruits are immature, they can still be taught by His Majesty. After more training in the future, they will naturally be able to hold on to things. Don't worry, Your Majesty."
"Talking with Lin Aiqing really makes me feel at ease. Otherwise, let Lin Aiqing do the training." Emperor Zhaoyang said with a smile.
Lin Su saluted respectfully: "I don't dare to do this. This is the way of taking the lead in practicing cronyism. If others follow suit, it will be my fault."
This job is not a good one. Some people will say it if it is done well, and some people will say it if it is not done well.
Emperor Zhaoyang lived with him for three years. Although he did not know Lin Su thoroughly, he knew that he was extremely intelligent, and he could live a very good life even without being an official. After all, not every official knows well about farmland water conservancy Yes, you can know the cause of the drought just by twisting the soil.
If he wants to seize power, Emperor Zhaoyang will also delegate power, but Lin Su obviously does not have much desire for power and wealth. The reason why he sits in this position is not because he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but because this position allows him to live smoothly. To get his honor is also to avoid the tongues of those literati.
"I believe in you." Emperor Zhaoyang said.
Lin Su was terrified: "Your Majesty, I don't believe in myself."
"Oh? If Aiqing is incompetent, why is she in such an important position?" Emperor Zhaoyang threatened.
Lin Su knelt down and said: "If Your Majesty wants to punish, I will take orders."
Emperor Zhaoyang was thinking of the law and wanted to put him in the position of Minister of the Household Department. After all, since this person entered the Household Department, he no longer felt stretched. It was time to spend money freely. Willing to demote people: "Ai Qing was joking, I am not that stupid king who doesn't know right from wrong and demotes people at will, don't you just want to give your family an upright identity? If you do this, How about I forgive his past, revoke his humble status, and allow him to enter Enke?"
For this qualification, how many slaves have spent their whole lives struggling to get out. After all, unless the people who got rid of the slaves made great contributions in troubled times, or had important ministers and celebrities who made contributions as guarantees, otherwise it would be difficult to get a pardon from His Majesty. things.
Lin Su saluted and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, I will definitely do my best and dare not neglect in the slightest."
His attitude is crisp and neat, where there is still half a bit of hesitation before, any crony, any leadership role is like talking for fun.
When Lin Su left, Emperor Zhaoyang felt a little uncomfortable: "Do you think he is plotting against me here?"
The servant at the side smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you agreed to this first."
"He's just because of the one at home named...Lin Qingtang, right?" Emperor Zhaoyang rubbed his chin and said, "He's an infatuated one, but I don't know how beautiful he is. You've seen it before, how is it?" people?"
The servant recalled with a smile: "That is a wonderful person. His appearance is [-]% similar to that of the common man Qi Qingyi before him, but his charm is different. Although he was born in a palace, he has a good character. He is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Lose to Qi Qingyi."
"Really?" Emperor Zhaoyang was a little curious, "Didn't you say that he was born in a palace, and the teaching there is so good?"
"Your Majesty was joking. Master Lin can teach people. Don't you also boast that Master Lin's calligraphy and paintings are all first-class. If you can get three points of skill, you are already outstanding." The servant laughed.
"If this is the case, if that person can enter the court in the future, it will really be worth seeing." Zhaoyang Emperor pondered for a moment and smiled, "Forget it, it's good to be affectionate."
Crazy in love with men, and has no heirs, and the stepmother at home is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Even if she has great power, she also uses it for him. Lin Su is a smart person, and knows how to calm his heart. Peace of mind.
There is also Chinese studies in the capital city, and His Majesty specially allowed Lin Su to teach here. Once the class started, the newly appointed Beijing officials and the first-class Jinshi and Shuji scholars who had just entered the Imperial Academy were very active. Even the old officials were curious about Lin Su. How did this person get the Sacred Heart and get promoted so quickly.
Since Lin Su agreed to Emperor Zhaoyang and exchanged conditions, he naturally wanted to do things well, lest he, a servant of the household department, had to cross his authority to solve problems for various ministries from time to time.
"The way to be an official is to be loyal to the emperor and love the country," Lin Su said without hesitation. For the benefit of the Ministry of Accounts, every taxable money must be fully understood..."
When a literati is an official, since he can read poems, classics, and write beautiful articles, how can he not be able to learn business, but there is no one to guide him, and he only thinks that he will be promoted step by step by forming cliques and impeaching others, but he doesn't know where he is going astray the way.
Naturally, speaking skills are also very important. If it is clearly a good thing but it is misunderstood and disgusted by words, even the best thing can become a bad thing.
Lin Su would also talk about this kind of thing, but his priority was to solve Emperor Zhaoyang's troubles, so he had to instill it into the new officials by talking less and doing more.
When he first talked about it, some people would not accept it: "Master Lin said that one must know the way of doing business in order to be a household department. The business is the last one. Doesn't this way damage the strength of our literati?"
"Although Shang is the last one, he is also one of the people in the world. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and scholars are the highest, but they don't even know what the last people know. How can we understand them and surpass them?" Lin Su said slowly, "If you don't understand, you don't know how some profiteers evade taxes and make the treasury sluggish, don't you? If you only rely on boards, you don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent, and you don't know how much time you will waste. Your Majesty bother."
"If you want to learn those things, why don't you let those people become officials? Why bother to study hard and read poems and books. It's useless at this time." Another person asked.
Lin Su replied again: "There are poems and books in your belly, so that you can live among the scholars. Walking, sitting and lying are different from others. You have rules and demeanor, so that the people respect and respect you. With such a dignified posture, if people who have never studied come here, they may not be able to understand what Lin said today. If you take off your shoes and socks at will, sit in a mess, or eat and have fun while I am teaching, and your mouth is dirty, it will not work. Wouldn't it be a joke to be decent?"
Everyone laughed lowly, but they agreed.
"There are rumors that Mr. Lin has... Longyang's kindness, is this action also an example for the scholars in the world?" Someone asked tentatively, "Do you think this action will hinder the prosperity of your offspring?"
"I think that as long as you have one mind and one mind, what's the difference between a man and a woman? Could it be that those who have the love of Longyang have the same love, and those who don't have the love of Longyang will not be able to have children?" Lin Su was not angry with him either.
Due to the education of the times, the concepts and habits from childhood are sometimes difficult to change, unlike him who has experienced a lot, and has seen any species form a partner. Just take care of yourself, why bother with others is unreasonable.
After Lin Su's lecture was over, when he left the Chinese school, he saw the carriage of the Lin family parked at the door. He had just looked over, when Qing Tang raised the curtain of the carriage and waved to him: "Master."
Some of the newly promoted officials didn't know him, but some of them had seen Qi Qingyi before. When they followed Lin Su and saw him, someone said with emotion, "It's really similar."
"According to me, it doesn't look like it. Have you ever seen someone smiling like this one? If it's really a woman, I'm sure..."
"What are you sure about? They already have Mr. Lin, so how can they like you."
Although they were discussing, they were respectful to Lin Su in their words. In the past, they only thought that those high-ranking officials were all high-ranking, and a disagreement could make them feel overwhelmed. There are few people who are as approachable as Mr. Lin. If they only talk about knowledge When it comes to right and wrong, even if there is a disagreement, they will only argue clearly, instead of getting angry at will, and always scolding themselves for lying.
"If you can take Mr. Lin as your teacher before the imperial examination, you may be able to get into the first class." A scholar said.
"Then you can become a teacher now, and go to the exam again." Someone teased.
"It's still not necessary."
No matter what his knowledge was, he really didn't dare to endure the nine-day suffering of the Gongyuan.
Lin Su got into the carriage, Qing Tang first handed her herbal tea to understand summer heat, and said with a smile, "Master, you have worked hard in recent days."
"It's cool in this car." Lin Su said after sitting down.
Qingtang smiled and said: "I put ice on the car according to the young master's method, and the walls of the car were also thickened. I counted the time when the young master will leave his post."
"Why don't you stay in the mansion, isn't it more comfortable in the mansion?" Lin Su put down his cup and asked.
Qingtang moved her buttocks, sat beside him, touched his cheek with her hand and said, "I just touched that vase of ice, is it cool?"
His fingers are like jade, which is really cool. Lin Su grabbed his hand and put it in the palm: "She pointed at you again, didn't she?"
Lin's father was promoted and came to the capital, and his stepmother was peaceful at first, but recently, he seemed to feel that Lin Su would have no heirs in the future, and would have to rely on her son in the future, so he became arrogant again. It's like letting go.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's not a big deal for any mother-in-law who won't talk to her daughter-in-law." Qing Tang leaned on his arm and said, "Can't I just come because I miss you?"
Women in this era are hard to embarrass, and the daughter-in-law who has become a mother-in-law also likes to make things difficult for the new daughter-in-law, as if she wants to vent her anger from the past.
If the stepmother is the real mother of the original body, or if she is very kind to the original body, then Lin Su will give it a three-pointer, but it is no wonder that she likes to make arrows with a chicken feather.
"You consider yourself to be my wife, so I can't let you be wronged." Lin Su knew that in Qingtang's current status, it's not easy to speak up and contradict, otherwise he would commit the following crimes, but this kind of disaster will have to be resolved sooner or later, a verbal warning If it doesn't work, you can only use some means.
Lin Su made up his mind to punish him, but within two days, Lin Wang was imprisoned for being drunk and making trouble. Father Lin wanted to see him when he found out, but he didn't see him. The hospital was in a state of chaos.
"Why did you end up in prison? Wang'er usually doesn't drink at all, master, you can save us Wang'er!" The step-room cried, and Lin's father had no real power, but he was helpless.
Lin Wang is the legitimate son, and Father Lin felt ashamed when he came to find Lin Su because he couldn't solve it himself: "Zhiyuan, now that your younger brother is in jail, maybe you can help me a little bit?"
"The Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household Affairs have no communication. If I reach out at will, if the censor reads a book, I'm afraid that the official position will not be guaranteed." Lin Su sat aside and smiled after saluting.
There were tears in the corners of the step-room's eyes, obviously really anxious: "Why is it so serious? It's just drinking and beating people, not looking at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face."
"Whose Buddha's face are you looking at? Are you looking at your mother?" Lin Su said calmly.
The step-room looked at him blankly, then turned to look at Father Lin again: "Master..."
"Since you are begging father, why come to me." Lin Su picked up the teacup and said, "Send father and mother back, but they will be imprisoned for a few days, and they will not be able to move any muscles."
He spoke lightly, as if that was not his real brother. Father Lin took a deep breath and said, "Lin Zhiyuan, do you still think that Wang'er is your real brother? Your stepmother may not be related to you, but Wang'er is not. Those who are closely related to you have never disobeyed your elder brother, you rubbed like this..."
"If you ask someone, you have to show a begging attitude." Lin Su said with a smile, "Even if you are not filial to me, you have to show evidence, right? But if you refer to me, I will make people judge Lin Wang has one finger, if all ten fingers are broken, how do you say he will write with a pen and choose the middle one to be an official?"
His words were really gloomy and cold, which is not what a literati like Father Lin saw every day. The stepmother swallowed and said, "You mean that you sent Wang'er in this time?!"
"Yes." Lin Su admitted frankly, "Since mother makes me uncomfortable, I have to make you uncomfortable too."
"What do you mean?" The stepmother was quite guilty when she asked.
Lin Su glanced at her and said: "You are clear in your own mind. Although Qingtang came from a bad background, I will consider him my wife and let him take care of the family. When I see him happy, I will be happy. If he is not happy, I will not be happy. You If I'm a good mother, even if it's just to save face, I won't care if you enjoy flower gatherings with you or put on airs, but if you want to have nothing to do, pointing fingers and scolding Huai Huai, the previous method is very easy to use."
"You're just doing it for a young lady?!" Father Lin blushed in disbelief.
Lin Su looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "If you look down on the people in the brothel, I will send my mother to stay there for two days, I think you will get used to it, don't worry, I will do this kind of thing naturally, people will think it is Occasionally, I will not leave myself
Qing Tang didn't answer, Lin Su kissed him on the cheek and said: "If you don't answer, I will assume you agree."
"Master..." Qing Tang's voice was wet, obviously still embarrassed.
However, Lin Su was nimble. He just said it during the day, and all Qingtang's things had already been moved in at night, and Xikang was the one who did the work.
Now that he has made love and is in charge, he has a quick mind and can figure it out. He naturally knows Qingtang's position in Lin Su's heart, and he doesn't dare to be negligent. All the talkers below have been punished all over the place, and Qingtang can live comfortably in the mansion. a lot of.
Lin Su was going to be on duty in the court, and although Qing Tang was shy, he put away his things one by one, and even used flower petals when he took a bath.
Although the young master can't hug people, it is good to sleep in one place where everything is clean.
The heat was steaming, and the fragrance of the flowers was pleasant. Qing Tang grabbed a handful of petals and rubbed them on his arm, and then smelled them after rubbing them. After confirming that there was a slight fragrance, he wiped his face with one hand.
I don't know whether it is hot or shy on the face, in short, I am ashamed of my behavior and want to do it.
The sound of water splashing caused the subtle sound of the door being pushed open to not reach Qingtang's ears clearly. When Lin Su entered the door, he had already heard someone say that Qingtang was taking a bath, and he had been taking a bath for almost half an hour.
Deliberately walking lightly, Lin Su did not disturb the person who was taking a bath when he walked around the screen. The young man's bones were still slender amidst the steam, and the water droplets snaked along the skin on his back, pink and translucent. The color of the petals soaked in.
Qing Tang Aimei, after being with Lin Su, she paid more attention to making every part of herself perfect. She always washed her hair with sesame leaves, so it was black and shiny, and she didn't walk around casually at sunrise. Even if you go out, you have to bring an umbrella. As for the skin, although some makeup powders in this era are good, the effect is not as good as the cream made by Lin Su himself. Qing Tang uses it every day. pretty.
The man is lustful, and Qing Tang naturally did not make an exception for Lin Su. The reason why he pays so much attention is really clear at a glance, but since he likes Lin Su, he supports it. After all, beauty is not exclusive to women.
Qing Tang finally took care of himself, took a deep breath and turned around, but saw the peeping person through the water mist, he subconsciously submerged in the water, his eyes were wet with water vapor: "Master!!! You, Why are you here?!"
"I'm peeping." Lin Su was very upright, and incidentally stood up straight from the posture of leaning on the screen.
"A gentleman should not look at evil..." Qingtang's lips trembled, not knowing whether to condemn him or to be shy, his mind was so entangled that he even wanted to slap the water.
"Being a gentleman is not such a blessing." Lin Su grabbed his wrist and pulled him to his eyes. "Then I will not be a gentleman in the future. It is also very good to be a villain for Xiao Qingtang."
"Didn't Qingtang miss the young master?" Qingtang's voice was also wet.
Lin Su smiled and said, "It's not the beauty's fault, but the young master's fault that I can't control my lust."
The sound of his words pierced his ears, and Qingtang felt itching in his palms, feet, and heart all the way to his heart. He raised his head and said, "Master, can you..."
kiss me.
Before he finished speaking, Lin Su had already put his arms around his back and kissed his lips, completely ignoring the wetness of his clothes, being a gentleman.
As soon as the kiss was over, Qingtang's chest heaved and he submerged himself in the water, leaving only the mouth above: "Master, go out and change first, Qingtang will come out later."
After finishing speaking, his mouth did not enter the water, leaving only his eyes blinking and blinking.
Lin Su directly took off his outer robe and wrung it dry, without staying any longer, he just smiled and said: "Don't choke yourself, come out quickly."
He turned to leave, Qing Tang raised his head from the water, touched his lips, he was crazy.
He used to hate things with men in the men's house, and he was terrified just by mentioning it, but now he longed for it just by being kissed.
If it is with the young master, he is actually willing to do it, even if it hurts a little bit, he is willing to let the blood flow into rivers as Jiaoyin said.
It's a pity that the young master can't be like others in this life, but just like this, he is also content.
Qing Tang stepped out of the bathtub and put on light clothes. When he turned around the screen, Lin Su was sitting by the bed reading a book and waiting for him.
Even if he couldn't do it, Qing Tang also took a deep breath and felt nervous, pretending to be calm and walked over and said: "Young master, what book are you reading after a day of tiredness?"
Lin Su looked up at him, and asked with a smile, "Curious?"
How could Qingtang be curious about the content of the book? He was just looking for something to say, but he could only continue: "Well, I wonder what book can make the young master so mesmerized."
"Your words seem to be jealous of this book." Lin Su leaned forward and hugged him in his arms.
Qingtang blushed and said, "I... have no such intention."
"Since you want to read it, let's read it together." Lin Su unfolded the book and placed it in front of his eyes. The book cover was neatly covered with miscellaneous travel notes, but the pictures in it were extremely clear, even with colored drawings, which was much better than the others. What Qingtang has seen in the waiting hall is exquisite.
Lin Su remained calm, as if he was reading some kind of historical work, and even if he was in front of outsiders, he would only think that he was hardworking, but Qing Tang was restless: "How...how could it be this kind of book?! This... ..."
"Xikang bought it as a filial piety, and now he is married. That virtuous wife is intelligent, and she gave him some pointers to make him more flexible." Lin Su stretched out his hand and scratched his chin and said, "Could it be that Qing Tang didn't Have you ever seen such an album? But why do I remember that you said to look at erotic pictures..."
His mouth was covered by Qingtang's hand. It really smelled like a scent of flowers. Qingtang bathed with flower petals for half an hour. Qingtang's face turned red: "You, don't say it!"
Besides, he was comparable to that steamed crab.
The young master looks handsome and dignified on the outside, how can he say this without the slightest hint of a literati?
"Okay, don't talk about it, we have to do it." Lin Su pulled his wrist, let go of the bed curtain and lay down with him in his arms. Knowing that our Qingtang is so impatient."
"You villain first... um..."
The book was thrown on the ground mercilessly, and the pages of the book were unfolded. If an outsider were to read it, it would really be without the decency of a scholar.
Sleeping together is sleep, but pure sleep is impossible. When Qing Tang woke up, he frowned slightly and turned over slightly, only to feel that the backache was not his own.
A warm hand caressed her waist and rubbed it gently, which made her feel a little more comfortable.
Um?one hand.
Qing Tang opened his eyes, stared blankly at the man lying beside him, subconsciously called out: "Master..."
"En." Lin Su's voice was lazier, it was the laziness of a ferocious beast being satisfied.
Qingtang's ears moved, sporadic images flashed in her mind, she turned her head and found that she was actually lying on the young master's arms: "We... you, young master, aren't you inhumane?!"
Lin Su raised his eyebrows: "When did I say I was inhumane?"
Qingtang was confused: "Didn't you say that you have... a hidden disease?"
"I remember what I said before. It's a hidden disease that can't have sex with women, but it's okay to have sex with men." Lin Su said innocently, "Xiao Qingtang will listen to everything I say next time, or you will regret it You have only yourself to blame."
Qingtang didn't regret it, he just felt that the young master who looked Yazheng seemed to be doing it on purpose: "You can't believe everything you said before, isn't it for now?"
"Xiao Qingtang is really smart, his brain turns so fast." Lin Su praised with a smile.
Qingtang patted his chest angrily: "You, how could you do this?!"
Lin Su held his hand and said directly: "I was wrong, be careful not to hurt your hands when you hit him so hard."
Qingtang was so angry that he couldn't get angry, and he forced a stomach full of candy: "Then why didn't the young master explain when I misunderstood before? I have suffered such a long time of misunderstanding for nothing."
He spoke softly, where there was no anger before.
Lin Su hugged him in his arms, patted him on the back and said, "I don't care about the young master who is misunderstood by others and wants to stay away from you, as long as you don't dislike Xiao Qingtang."
"How could Qingtang despise the young master?" Qingtang leaned into his arms and said softly, "It's just that Qingtang is a person who pushes his feet. I used to think that it would be good to be with you. Even if you marry a wife and have children, I can do it. Look, if you want to marry a wife and have children now, it is impossible, if there is a day..."
His words faltered, he looked up at Lin Su's encouraging eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "If that day comes, I will definitely die with you."
"It's impossible to die together." Lin Su raised his chin and chuckled, "It's feasible to make progress, yesterday it was only twice, today it may be three times, and tomorrow it may be four times, thirty Like a wolf, forty like a tiger, fifty..."
"Young Master!!!" Qing Tang sat up and beat him straight away, becoming really angry from embarrassment, "That's not how to make progress!"
This person is really bad.
When the two of them woke up, the sun was already high above their heads, and Qing Tang knew that Lin Su had hired Xiu Mu when he left his job yesterday.
What else did he say that he was impatient, this man was clearly prepared long ago.
"Angry? Don't be angry. The palace examination will end in a few days. How about I take you to ride a horse outside the city?" Lin Su coaxed.
Riding and archery is also one of the gentleman's six arts. Lin Su's horse riding is excellent, but Qing Tang encountered the same Waterloo as painting here.
It’s just that he looks soft on the outside, but his temper is not to admit defeat. Now that Lin Su’s painting has three points of Lin Su’s skill, it is worthwhile to show it to literati for appreciation. give up.
"Okay." Qing Tang cheered up.
It is inconvenient to learn to ride a horse in the city, it is not as spacious as the countryside, if one day I can ride with the young master, it is really arbitrariness.
The spring scientific examination is held every three years. Before the results of the palace examination are released, the people from the old Lin family house have already entered the capital. Discuss for half a point.
Father Lin got off the carriage, and when he saw Lin Su, he hardly dared to recognize him. The son in his impression was taciturn and had the most eccentric temper, but then he became sharp-tongued for some reason, and won the first prize. Father Lin I always feel that it may be shit luck.
Seeing him now, if he were on the street, he really wouldn't dare to recognize such a glorious and humble gentleman as his son: "You have changed a lot now."
"It's because His Majesty has trained well and colleagues have influenced each other." Lin Su said with a smile.
The stepmother also got out of the car, and when he saw Lin Su, he had the same feeling as Lin's father: "Zhiyuan now looks like a high-ranking official."
"Mother said cautiously, there are many officials in Beijing, many of them are better than those in Zhiyuan. If mother doesn't think about Zhiyuan, she should also think about Wang'er. If you cause a rift before you become a Jinshi, you will suffer in the future. .” Lin Su reminded with a smile.
Lin Wang, the step-in-law's son, is only fifteen years old this year, and has yet to pass the provincial examination, so she can't be called a Jinshi. Although she knows that Lin Su's family property will be inherited by her son in the future, it can be seen that when she sees him, she is out of habit and unconsciously. I want to make a few jokes.
"Brother." Lin Wang looked upright, and there was nothing wrong with his salute. Looking at his attitude, he was much more sober than his stepmother.
Lin Su nodded and said: "This is not a place to talk, let's ask father to go home and settle down before we can talk."
The group got into the carriage, and when they arrived at the Lin family's mansion, Qing Tang greeted them: "The young master is back."
The stepmother got off the car, she had never seen Qi Qingyi before, and said with a polite smile: "Zhiyuan, which official's young master is this, he looks really handsome."
Father Lin met Qi Qingyi by chance, and saw that the two of them behaved intimately, did not shy away from others, and wanted to say a few words, but thought of his son's body, so he could only say with a serious face: "What little master, this is Zhiyuan Courtyard people here."
"I have met Mrs. Madam." Qing Tang saluted with a deep breath, well-behaved, without arrogance, "I am Qing Tang, and now I follow the young master's surname, and my name is Lin Qingtang."
The step-room, however, understood the meaning of Master Lin's words, his complexion changed, and he coughed and said, "It turned out to be a servant, what about you and mine, it's nothing..."
Her gaze met Lin Su's, and she swallowed the words in her throat instantly.
A group of people entered the Lin family's mansion, the yard five entered was really spacious, the second room entered the inner courtyard, tea and food were all ready, Qing Tang smiled and said: "Master and Madam are tired from traveling, please wash up and have dinner."
The step-wife just got Lin Su's cold stare, so she didn't dare to say anything to Lin Su, she just went to Qing Tang: "You are a servant, do you dare to meddle in the affairs of the master's family?"
Qingtang tightened her fingers, and was about to speak, but Lin Su pressed her shoulder and said coldly: "Mother is really very powerful now."
His smiling face outside the door had completely disappeared, and his eyes were looking at the back of his step-room, and he said quite confidently: "I'm right..."
"Mother is wrong. Qing Tang is in charge of the family affairs, not as a steward, but as the head of the house." Lin Su said bluntly, "Although he has no status now, he is a wife in Zhiyuan's heart, and he will come to Zhiyuan in the future." I will also ask His Majesty to marry him to me if I have achieved merit, and I hope my mother will know."
"He is a man, how can he be a wife?!" Father Lin patted the table and said, "The world is divided into yin and yang, and yin and yang are the way to reconcile. If two yangs meet, they will overflow!"
Lin Su sneered: "Father's words are interesting. You can ask whose daughter is willing to marry a man from the sky, if she is willing to marry, in the future my real estate shop will also be my wife's closest, maybe it won't be my younger brother's turn." gone."
Lin Wang stood aside, obviously still shocked by the relationship between Lin Su and Qing Tang. Hearing this, he said: "Father, mother calm down, elder brother is also helpless, father is kind, and will not bear elder brother's life alone, no one to rely on Yes, although I am a younger brother, I will marry a wife in the future, so I cannot always take care of her."
"Wang'er is a sensible person." Lin Su held Qingtang's shoulders and said, "Father said that yin and yang are compatible. Now I am yin and he is yang, which is exactly the same. It is the duty of a son to support parents, but if Staying in Hai'er's house made the two feel unhappy, so they had to move out. After all, this house was bestowed by His Majesty, and the baby can't move, so naturally he can only do things loyal to the emperor. After cleaning your hands, you can eat and rest Well, the boy will take his leave first."
"You!" Father Lin was very angry.
The stepmother's complexion is also extremely pale, if she is kicked out, she will lose all face: "Master, what should we do now? That one is from a young man."
"It's all right for him to find a man, what kind of wife is he? If others find out that my Lin family has found a young lady to be the young wife, it will be a shame!" Father Lin threw the cup out angrily.
Lin Su brought Qing Tang out, and just after turning the corner, he saw the fragments of the cup flying out, Qing Tang subconsciously shuddered, and when he got out of the courtyard, he sighed and said, "I still bothered the young master. "
He has a bad background, no matter how much he uses literature to cover it up, no matter how good he is at the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the six arts of a gentleman, he can't cover up the fact that he was born in a palace.
Ordinary people are ashamed of them, let alone officials.
"How could you choose your own background?" Lin Su didn't show any anger on his face, he just flicked his head and said, "If they are in your position, they may not live a better life than you."
"Then what should we do now?" Seeing that he was not angry, Qing Tang was also angry.
He used to go through a lot of gossip when he was in crisis and he didn't know how to cry, but now he got what he wanted, and he didn't care about the opinions of insignificant people, even if they were the young master's parents.
"It's just a matter of saving face. You are in charge of everything in the house. If your stepmother asks you, don't bother with her. See you if you want, and see if you don't want to. If you are really wronged, let me know." Lin Lin Su took his hand and walked through the yard without any hesitation.
The servants who come and go have long been used to it, and they all walk forward with their heads bowed, without saying anything.
Lin Su talked to him, but he didn't see any response. When he turned his head, he smiled at Shang Qingtang's admiring eyes: "What are you looking at?"
"Although the young master has a better background than others, his situation is also extremely bad. If the young master is in my position, he will be able to save himself without the help of others. The young master is Qing Tang's role model." Qing Tang laughed.
Lin Su was stunned for a moment. If he was in his position, he would definitely not be subjected to that torture. He would directly change his clothing and clothes to stay away from that place, change his name and surname, and start over from scratch in a place where no one knew him.
But Qingtang used to be not as endless as he was, and always found a way to get out of trouble. As for now: "If you are still in that situation now, you can redeem yourself by performing arts instead of selling yourself."
"Qingtang is able to have what he is today, thanks to the young master." Qing Tang smiled, "The young master is also tired today, but you want me to go back and give you a shoulder squeeze to relieve your fatigue?"
"Xiaoqing Tang was already so virtuous before she became the mistress. If she really married into the family, Lin's life would be enough." Lin Su hooked the tip of his nose and said.
Qingtang smiled, but followed behind him and said: "Actually, it is enough for now, young master doesn't need to ask the emperor for my affairs, and give people in the world a reason to talk. Young master thinks that I am a wife, and I am a wife."
Lin Su said with a smile: "Didn't you always say that you are greedy and push every inch? You don't have to back down or worry about this matter. You are my wife in my heart, but if you want everyone in the world to recognize you as my wife, you must be my wife." Sit in that position, be my wife justifiably, and not let others criticize me at all. Since ancient times, the thing of favoring concubines and destroying wives is because of partiality in my heart, and I believe that all of them are insignificant. It’s the scene that speaks beautifully, but it may not be able to be fulfilled, don’t just listen with your ears, see with your eyes, I will do what I say.”
He said it lightly, not like a pledge of eternal love, but it made Qing Tang feel that his heart had been shocked.
He has also read the story books, and knows that his heart is wrong, and he has heard rumors that love is timeless when he is unmarried, but it is not appropriate after marriage. Only the young master is different from them. If a promise is made, it is a real promise.
What made him enamored was not how good the young master said. Although he would be agitated by those words, he knew that what he admired from the very beginning was what the young master was doing. Looking at him made me feel satisfied.
"Then I'll watch." Qingtang stood on the spot, watched his back after a few steps away, ran to his side in small steps, held his hanging hand and said.
After the palace examination was over, the Hanlin Academy added new members. The people who entered the Imperial Academy with Lin Su had to take the exam again before they were assigned to various positions in the court, and Lin Su's official rank had already been separated.
Although it was filled by the court, Emperor Zhaoyang was still not so satisfied: "The new ones are all immature in means, and the papers they submit every day are concerned about the country and the people, but few of the suggestions they put forward can be implemented. If they can Just like Lin Aiqing."
"If they are all like ministers, His Majesty will have a headache." Lin Su said respectfully.
06 nodded again and again: 【I will definitely lose the throne. 】
A host is a thousand-year-old fox. If the entire court is like a host, the original world will be blown up.
Emperor Zhaoyang also felt that Lin Su was enough: "What Aiqing said is also reasonable."
"That's right," Lin Su said calmly, "Although the new recruits are immature, they can still be taught by His Majesty. After more training in the future, they will naturally be able to hold on to things. Don't worry, Your Majesty."
"Talking with Lin Aiqing really makes me feel at ease. Otherwise, let Lin Aiqing do the training." Emperor Zhaoyang said with a smile.
Lin Su saluted respectfully: "I don't dare to do this. This is the way of taking the lead in practicing cronyism. If others follow suit, it will be my fault."
This job is not a good one. Some people will say it if it is done well, and some people will say it if it is not done well.
Emperor Zhaoyang lived with him for three years. Although he did not know Lin Su thoroughly, he knew that he was extremely intelligent, and he could live a very good life even without being an official. After all, not every official knows well about farmland water conservancy Yes, you can know the cause of the drought just by twisting the soil.
If he wants to seize power, Emperor Zhaoyang will also delegate power, but Lin Su obviously does not have much desire for power and wealth. The reason why he sits in this position is not because he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but because this position allows him to live smoothly. To get his honor is also to avoid the tongues of those literati.
"I believe in you." Emperor Zhaoyang said.
Lin Su was terrified: "Your Majesty, I don't believe in myself."
"Oh? If Aiqing is incompetent, why is she in such an important position?" Emperor Zhaoyang threatened.
Lin Su knelt down and said: "If Your Majesty wants to punish, I will take orders."
Emperor Zhaoyang was thinking of the law and wanted to put him in the position of Minister of the Household Department. After all, since this person entered the Household Department, he no longer felt stretched. It was time to spend money freely. Willing to demote people: "Ai Qing was joking, I am not that stupid king who doesn't know right from wrong and demotes people at will, don't you just want to give your family an upright identity? If you do this, How about I forgive his past, revoke his humble status, and allow him to enter Enke?"
For this qualification, how many slaves have spent their whole lives struggling to get out. After all, unless the people who got rid of the slaves made great contributions in troubled times, or had important ministers and celebrities who made contributions as guarantees, otherwise it would be difficult to get a pardon from His Majesty. things.
Lin Su saluted and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, I will definitely do my best and dare not neglect in the slightest."
His attitude is crisp and neat, where there is still half a bit of hesitation before, any crony, any leadership role is like talking for fun.
When Lin Su left, Emperor Zhaoyang felt a little uncomfortable: "Do you think he is plotting against me here?"
The servant at the side smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you agreed to this first."
"He's just because of the one at home named...Lin Qingtang, right?" Emperor Zhaoyang rubbed his chin and said, "He's an infatuated one, but I don't know how beautiful he is. You've seen it before, how is it?" people?"
The servant recalled with a smile: "That is a wonderful person. His appearance is [-]% similar to that of the common man Qi Qingyi before him, but his charm is different. Although he was born in a palace, he has a good character. He is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Lose to Qi Qingyi."
"Really?" Emperor Zhaoyang was a little curious, "Didn't you say that he was born in a palace, and the teaching there is so good?"
"Your Majesty was joking. Master Lin can teach people. Don't you also boast that Master Lin's calligraphy and paintings are all first-class. If you can get three points of skill, you are already outstanding." The servant laughed.
"If this is the case, if that person can enter the court in the future, it will really be worth seeing." Zhaoyang Emperor pondered for a moment and smiled, "Forget it, it's good to be affectionate."
Crazy in love with men, and has no heirs, and the stepmother at home is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Even if she has great power, she also uses it for him. Lin Su is a smart person, and knows how to calm his heart. Peace of mind.
There is also Chinese studies in the capital city, and His Majesty specially allowed Lin Su to teach here. Once the class started, the newly appointed Beijing officials and the first-class Jinshi and Shuji scholars who had just entered the Imperial Academy were very active. Even the old officials were curious about Lin Su. How did this person get the Sacred Heart and get promoted so quickly.
Since Lin Su agreed to Emperor Zhaoyang and exchanged conditions, he naturally wanted to do things well, lest he, a servant of the household department, had to cross his authority to solve problems for various ministries from time to time.
"The way to be an official is to be loyal to the emperor and love the country," Lin Su said without hesitation. For the benefit of the Ministry of Accounts, every taxable money must be fully understood..."
When a literati is an official, since he can read poems, classics, and write beautiful articles, how can he not be able to learn business, but there is no one to guide him, and he only thinks that he will be promoted step by step by forming cliques and impeaching others, but he doesn't know where he is going astray the way.
Naturally, speaking skills are also very important. If it is clearly a good thing but it is misunderstood and disgusted by words, even the best thing can become a bad thing.
Lin Su would also talk about this kind of thing, but his priority was to solve Emperor Zhaoyang's troubles, so he had to instill it into the new officials by talking less and doing more.
When he first talked about it, some people would not accept it: "Master Lin said that one must know the way of doing business in order to be a household department. The business is the last one. Doesn't this way damage the strength of our literati?"
"Although Shang is the last one, he is also one of the people in the world. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and scholars are the highest, but they don't even know what the last people know. How can we understand them and surpass them?" Lin Su said slowly, "If you don't understand, you don't know how some profiteers evade taxes and make the treasury sluggish, don't you? If you only rely on boards, you don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent, and you don't know how much time you will waste. Your Majesty bother."
"If you want to learn those things, why don't you let those people become officials? Why bother to study hard and read poems and books. It's useless at this time." Another person asked.
Lin Su replied again: "There are poems and books in your belly, so that you can live among the scholars. Walking, sitting and lying are different from others. You have rules and demeanor, so that the people respect and respect you. With such a dignified posture, if people who have never studied come here, they may not be able to understand what Lin said today. If you take off your shoes and socks at will, sit in a mess, or eat and have fun while I am teaching, and your mouth is dirty, it will not work. Wouldn't it be a joke to be decent?"
Everyone laughed lowly, but they agreed.
"There are rumors that Mr. Lin has... Longyang's kindness, is this action also an example for the scholars in the world?" Someone asked tentatively, "Do you think this action will hinder the prosperity of your offspring?"
"I think that as long as you have one mind and one mind, what's the difference between a man and a woman? Could it be that those who have the love of Longyang have the same love, and those who don't have the love of Longyang will not be able to have children?" Lin Su was not angry with him either.
Due to the education of the times, the concepts and habits from childhood are sometimes difficult to change, unlike him who has experienced a lot, and has seen any species form a partner. Just take care of yourself, why bother with others is unreasonable.
After Lin Su's lecture was over, when he left the Chinese school, he saw the carriage of the Lin family parked at the door. He had just looked over, when Qing Tang raised the curtain of the carriage and waved to him: "Master."
Some of the newly promoted officials didn't know him, but some of them had seen Qi Qingyi before. When they followed Lin Su and saw him, someone said with emotion, "It's really similar."
"According to me, it doesn't look like it. Have you ever seen someone smiling like this one? If it's really a woman, I'm sure..."
"What are you sure about? They already have Mr. Lin, so how can they like you."
Although they were discussing, they were respectful to Lin Su in their words. In the past, they only thought that those high-ranking officials were all high-ranking, and a disagreement could make them feel overwhelmed. There are few people who are as approachable as Mr. Lin. If they only talk about knowledge When it comes to right and wrong, even if there is a disagreement, they will only argue clearly, instead of getting angry at will, and always scolding themselves for lying.
"If you can take Mr. Lin as your teacher before the imperial examination, you may be able to get into the first class." A scholar said.
"Then you can become a teacher now, and go to the exam again." Someone teased.
"It's still not necessary."
No matter what his knowledge was, he really didn't dare to endure the nine-day suffering of the Gongyuan.
Lin Su got into the carriage, Qing Tang first handed her herbal tea to understand summer heat, and said with a smile, "Master, you have worked hard in recent days."
"It's cool in this car." Lin Su said after sitting down.
Qingtang smiled and said: "I put ice on the car according to the young master's method, and the walls of the car were also thickened. I counted the time when the young master will leave his post."
"Why don't you stay in the mansion, isn't it more comfortable in the mansion?" Lin Su put down his cup and asked.
Qingtang moved her buttocks, sat beside him, touched his cheek with her hand and said, "I just touched that vase of ice, is it cool?"
His fingers are like jade, which is really cool. Lin Su grabbed his hand and put it in the palm: "She pointed at you again, didn't she?"
Lin's father was promoted and came to the capital, and his stepmother was peaceful at first, but recently, he seemed to feel that Lin Su would have no heirs in the future, and would have to rely on her son in the future, so he became arrogant again. It's like letting go.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's not a big deal for any mother-in-law who won't talk to her daughter-in-law." Qing Tang leaned on his arm and said, "Can't I just come because I miss you?"
Women in this era are hard to embarrass, and the daughter-in-law who has become a mother-in-law also likes to make things difficult for the new daughter-in-law, as if she wants to vent her anger from the past.
If the stepmother is the real mother of the original body, or if she is very kind to the original body, then Lin Su will give it a three-pointer, but it is no wonder that she likes to make arrows with a chicken feather.
"You consider yourself to be my wife, so I can't let you be wronged." Lin Su knew that in Qingtang's current status, it's not easy to speak up and contradict, otherwise he would commit the following crimes, but this kind of disaster will have to be resolved sooner or later, a verbal warning If it doesn't work, you can only use some means.
Lin Su made up his mind to punish him, but within two days, Lin Wang was imprisoned for being drunk and making trouble. Father Lin wanted to see him when he found out, but he didn't see him. The hospital was in a state of chaos.
"Why did you end up in prison? Wang'er usually doesn't drink at all, master, you can save us Wang'er!" The step-room cried, and Lin's father had no real power, but he was helpless.
Lin Wang is the legitimate son, and Father Lin felt ashamed when he came to find Lin Su because he couldn't solve it himself: "Zhiyuan, now that your younger brother is in jail, maybe you can help me a little bit?"
"The Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household Affairs have no communication. If I reach out at will, if the censor reads a book, I'm afraid that the official position will not be guaranteed." Lin Su sat aside and smiled after saluting.
There were tears in the corners of the step-room's eyes, obviously really anxious: "Why is it so serious? It's just drinking and beating people, not looking at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face."
"Whose Buddha's face are you looking at? Are you looking at your mother?" Lin Su said calmly.
The step-room looked at him blankly, then turned to look at Father Lin again: "Master..."
"Since you are begging father, why come to me." Lin Su picked up the teacup and said, "Send father and mother back, but they will be imprisoned for a few days, and they will not be able to move any muscles."
He spoke lightly, as if that was not his real brother. Father Lin took a deep breath and said, "Lin Zhiyuan, do you still think that Wang'er is your real brother? Your stepmother may not be related to you, but Wang'er is not. Those who are closely related to you have never disobeyed your elder brother, you rubbed like this..."
"If you ask someone, you have to show a begging attitude." Lin Su said with a smile, "Even if you are not filial to me, you have to show evidence, right? But if you refer to me, I will make people judge Lin Wang has one finger, if all ten fingers are broken, how do you say he will write with a pen and choose the middle one to be an official?"
His words were really gloomy and cold, which is not what a literati like Father Lin saw every day. The stepmother swallowed and said, "You mean that you sent Wang'er in this time?!"
"Yes." Lin Su admitted frankly, "Since mother makes me uncomfortable, I have to make you uncomfortable too."
"What do you mean?" The stepmother was quite guilty when she asked.
Lin Su glanced at her and said: "You are clear in your own mind. Although Qingtang came from a bad background, I will consider him my wife and let him take care of the family. When I see him happy, I will be happy. If he is not happy, I will not be happy. You If I'm a good mother, even if it's just to save face, I won't care if you enjoy flower gatherings with you or put on airs, but if you want to have nothing to do, pointing fingers and scolding Huai Huai, the previous method is very easy to use."
"You're just doing it for a young lady?!" Father Lin blushed in disbelief.
Lin Su looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "If you look down on the people in the brothel, I will send my mother to stay there for two days, I think you will get used to it, don't worry, I will do this kind of thing naturally, people will think it is Occasionally, I will not leave myself
