Chapter 409: A smile on his face
Lin Yanchao saw Chen Zhiwen flattering himself like this, and thought to himself that the other party was also a fifth-grade official, so he didn't need to be so respectful when he saw himself, he must have come with a request. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing that Chen Zhiwen drank the wine in one go, Lin Yanchao only took a shallow sip.
Chen Zhiwen glanced at the residual wine in Lin Yanchao's cup, and said with a smile: "How old is it in Xiaxu, I take the liberty of calling Zhuangyuanlang a virtuous brother, but in fact, the foolish brother has something to ask for." ”
Lin Yanchao said: "Chen Zhoumu, what you want to ask, I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it." ”
Chen Zhiwen hurriedly said: "Brother Xian, you have to help Brother Fool no matter what, since Brother Xian knows it, Brother Fool doesn't play dumb riddles, shamelessly say it, in order to seek the errand of clearing the banknotes, I have been planning for a long time." ”
Lin Yanchao said: "Chen Zhoumu, you really found the wrong person, Linqing banknotes, at first glance, it seems that the household officials are fighting for the right to act, but in fact, the imperial court wants to take back the local taxes to the central government, this is a national policy dispute, not a general personnel transfer, to run the relationship, dredge a way can be done." “
Chen Zhiwen said with a sad face: "Brother Xian's words of gold and jade, Brother Yu also understands, the tax belongs to the Ministry of Households, since it is Linqing County, Shandong Province and other yamen have lost their old capital, and now the governor patrols the Yamen, and the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials has filed a lawsuit with the Ministry of Household in the Son of Heaven on this matter, but it is not this matter that I care about, and the foolish brother does not fight for the right to act, but comes to buy a news with the virtuous brother." “
"Oh, what's the news?" Lin Yanchao asked.
"Virtuous brother, the foolish brother Linqing Tongzhi told the body, the ministry has not yet been issued, it can be changed at any time, you are well-informed in the cabinet, for the battle of the ministry of the ministry, who loses and who wins must be one step earlier than outsiders to get the news, if the virtuous brother hears the news, inform Chen in advance of a certain sentence, that is, Chen's parents, a lifetime of gratitude for your great kindness!"
After Chen Zhiwen said this, Lin Yanchao also understood what he wanted.
That's right, I can participate in the cardinals, although I can't dictate the major affairs of the court, but we have the ability to know more than others. Therefore, Chen Zhiwen wants to buy a news from himself, if the household department really takes the acting power of Linqing Banknote Customs, then he will take advantage of Linqing Tongzhi to tell him that he has not yet come down, and move to a more promising place. But if the officials and the local yamen win the lawsuit in front of the emperor, then he will be happy and will not have to move.
Then Chen Zhiwen lowered his voice and said: "If Brother Zong Hai can reveal the news to Chen in advance, Chen is willing to thank him with one thousand taels of silver." “
A thousand taels of silver? For Lin Yanchao, this is just a gesture, but he can get a thousand taels. As for whether to collect it or not? This money is a bad rule in officialdom. What do you mean by bad rules? It's just that you can't get on the stage, but everyone follows the rules.
The reason why the people of Zhongshushe are so popular is because they can rely on this bad rule to collect money and receive soft hands every year. Therefore, the people in the two rooms of the study house have received this money. The money is not hot because it is not a confidential matter.
So Lin Yanchao pondered his tone and said: "But Chen Zhoumu, I really can afford to be below, since Brother Chen is so gracious, the words are in front of the first, and at the moment, it is just the first time to serve in Wenyuan Pavilion, I am afraid it is not easy to refer to confidential matters, I can only say that I will give it a try, if there is news, I will tell the state pastor." “
Chen Zhiwen listened to Lin Yanchao's agreement, and immediately thanked him: "Zong Hai's affection really makes the foolish brother not know what to say, so he can only wait for good news." “
So Chen Zhiwen asked someone else to toast again.
After a wine banquet, everyone was full of wine and food, and Chen Zhiwen really didn't dare to ask Lin Yanchao for their meal.
Not only that, on the occasion of parting, Chen Zhiwen also gave everyone a \'thin gift\'.
Of course, the thin gift is what he said, but in fact, it is not thin, that is, each person receives an interview made of gold threads. The face sign is a bookmark, which is packed in a wooden box, which looks high-end and high-grade.
For this gift, all Hanlin likes it, and the things used by the reader are not cheesy at all, which is in line with Hanlin's identity. Moreover, the interview is made of golden threads, and it can also be exchanged for money when necessary.
It can be seen that in the way of gift-giving, we Chen Zhizhou really put a lot of thought into it. In short, everyone ate and took this time, and they all felt that it was worth the trip.
Chen Zhiwen sent Lin Yanchao out of the door, and Chen Jichuan drove Lin Yanchao to his home, and Lin Qianqian was already at home.
Lin Qianqian heard the sound of the carriage outside the house, so he left his needlework and galloped out of the house.
Therefore, when Lin Yanchao entered the door, he saw Lin Qianqian, who was full of joy, standing in front of the door.
And Lin Qianqian saw the unicorn suit on Lin Yanchao's body at a glance, so he asked, "Xianggong, why isn't this your official robe for the day?" ”
Before Lin Yanchao could speak, Chen Jichuan hurriedly said: "Madam, today's lord is appreciated by the Son of Heaven, so he gave him a unicorn suit." ”
Lin Qianqian listened to Lin Yanchao's reward from the Son of Heaven, and asked in disbelief: "Xianggong, is this true?" ”
Lin Yanchao smiled: "It's true." ”
The smile on Lin Qianqian's face suddenly bloomed, and then he said angrily: "Xianggong, since this is a gift from the Son of Heaven, why are you still wearing him to the banquet today, what if it gets dirty?" Quick, take it off. ”
Lin Yanchao smiled, and according to Lin Qianqian's words, he took off the unicorn suit.
Lin Yanchao motioned for Chen Jichuan and the maid to retreat, and only he and Qianqian were left in the room.
Under the candlelight, Lin Qianqian lowered his head and looked a little delicate. It was Lin Yanchao who drank sobering soup while watching the beauty under the lamp.
Lin Qianqian knew that Lin Yanchao had a wine banquet today, so he boiled the decanting soup early.
Lin Qianqian put away the unicorn suit happily, but said in his mouth: "Master, you have made such a great contribution today, and the Son of Heaven only gave a piece of clothing, which is too stingy." ”
"Then what did you say?"
"At least a hundred taels of gold and a thousand acres of fertile land." Lin Qianqian said with a smile.
Lin Yanchao shook his head and said with a smile: "Gold is easy to get, but this unicorn suit is not gold a hundred taels. ”
Lin Qian smiled sweetly: "I know, but I always feel that it is more practical to give money." In exchange for me today's queen mother, the Son of Heaven asked you what you would reward, and I said I wanted gold. ”
Lin Yanchao angrily tapped Lin Qianqian's smooth forehead with his finger, and said, "You, you." ”
Lin Qianqian touched his forehead and said aggrievedly: "I know, can't I say it?" ”
Lin Yanchao smiled when he heard it, he was tired for a day today, so he simply lay down on the kang directly, as for Lin Qianqian, he was happy, like a little magpie, Lin Yanchao was talking about firewood, rice, oil and salt at home today.
Lin Yanchao closed his eyes, listened to Lin Qian's hometown accent in his ears, and occasionally said a word or two about trivial matters on official business.
Of course, when Lin Qianqian heard about Lin Yanchao, it was far less important than her firewood, rice, oil and salt.
For Lin Yanchao, anyway, no matter how beautiful the court is, it is just a smile after returning home. (To be continued.) )
