Chapter 543 Heavy responsibility is on your shoulders
Guo Bing frowned and said, "But why does he want to be a matchmaker for you, persuade your second uncle to agree, and let Qian Qianyi rob you back to be your son-in-law?" It stands to reason that you have offended him at that time, and he should calculate that you are. How can you be kind enough to be a matchmaker for you and marry Qian Qianyi's daughter? Isn't that helping you? ”
"yes, it's a strange thing, my father and I haven't been able to figure out what's going on. At first, I thought that Qian Qianyi temporarily wanted to catch his son-in-law, but then I felt that it was not right, you obviously rejected your second uncle's proposal, why did you come to such a show? Guo Kun also asked puzzled.
Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "Father-in-law, eldest brother, I also had your questions before. Wu Chunlai, who was scolded by me, was still willing to be a matchmaker for me, and Zhang Luo had a marriage that was very beneficial to me in the eyes of others, which is really confusing. With such a question, I asked the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Division to help me investigate, and then I found out the reason. ”
"What is the reason?" Guo Kun asked.
"The daughter of Vice Minister Qian's family turned out to be a woman with a broken appearance, and she was disfigured by the fire. According to Ma Bin, the appearance was as terrifying as a Yaksha ghost. And his personality is brutal and domineering, which is unreasonable. Wu Chunlai's matchmaking of this marriage is actually revenge on me, but this is just a soft knife to kill people, so that I can live with this woman for the rest of my life. From this, I understood that Wu Chunlai was a vicious and vicious person, and he was a complete villain. Lin Jue sighed.
"Huh? I see. Guo Bing's father and son both showed a sudden look.
The little county lord stroked his chest and looked at Lin Jue, and said in his heart: It's dangerous. Fortunately, Wu Chun didn't succeed, otherwise Lang Jun would have to live with that dominatrix for the rest of his life, which would be really miserable. But speaking of which, I have to thank Wu Chunlai, if he hadn't tossed it like this, his marriage with his husband would not have gone so smoothly, and his father would not have made up his mind.
Guo Bing regretted a little in his heart, it turned out that he would be wrong that day, thinking that this was a move to win over Lin Jue, so he made up his mind to snatch Lin Jue back and marry Wei'er. If you knew that this was just a means for Wu Chun to take revenge on Lin Jue, you should ignore it. But now it's useless to think about this, the wood has become a boat, the rice has become a cook, and there is nothing more to say.
"It turns out that there is such a secret here. But what this king doesn't quite understand is, why did the head of your Lin family get involved with Wu Chunlai? It stands to reason that even if he doesn't know that this is Wu Chun's means to take revenge on you, in the case that you are trying your best to oppose this marriage, you should not have made the decision to write you a marriage letter in private, and forcibly forced the marriage is. Guo Bing groaned.
Lin Jue said: "Father-in-law, this matter is indeed strange. I also thought about it carefully afterwards, and I always felt that I couldn't justify it. The second uncle should not have done this to me, but he did so, which makes people wonder if there is another reason behind this. I suspect that the second uncle was coerced, and as far as I know, the second uncle has been in trouble recently. Lord Yan and Mr. Fang seem to be investigating the affairs of the Sansi Yamen, and they also impeached several chief officials of the Sansi Yamen in the imperial court. The second uncle had begged me to intercede with my husband, and he seemed to be very flustered. I suspect that he wanted to save himself, or that he had some handle in Wu Chunlai's hands, so he made those incredible moves. ”
Guo Bing slapped his thigh and said loudly: "Yes, if you say that, this king thinks it's really quite possible." I also heard about this matter, Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru did set their sights on the Sansi Yamen, and it is said that they found out a lot of clues. If Lin Bonian defected to Wu Chunlai in order to save himself, or if Wu Chunlai had any evidence to force him, it was not impossible. In that case, the whole thing makes sense. It can also explain why Lin Bonian is so active in cooperating with Wu Chun to persecute you. It's so powerful, it seems that this appointment is also very likely to be related to him, this is called a plan that can't be made and a plan, in short, it's all for you. ”
Lin Jue said: "Yes, that's exactly what my son-in-law thinks. If the forced marriage fails, naturally they have to find another way to harm me. That's why the younger son-in-law wants to ask the father-in-law and eldest brother not to be impulsive, not to mess up themselves because of this incident, but to be caught by others. ”
Guo Bing stroked his beard and nodded slowly. By now, Guo Bing has basically agreed with Lin Jue's statement. Everything that has been discussed has straightened out the whole thing. But he still thinks that the imperial brother is fully aware of this matter. It is very likely that Wu Chunlai took revenge on Lin Jue and secretly moved his hands and feet. Because it was too easy for Wu Chunlai. Conferring officials is the authority of the minister's room, and the minister's room is a department in the political hall, and it is too simple for Wu Chunlai to influence the decision, just say hello. However, the result of the award of officials is to be reviewed and decreed by the emperor himself, and it is impossible for the emperor not to see the trend of the new champion awarding officials. But seeing that Lin Jue's official position was still approved, it can only be said that he pushed the boat down the river and suppressed it. Otherwise there is no reason to explain it.
At this point, Guo Bing did misunderstand Guo Chong. In fact, the reason why the result of this official award can pass Guo Chong's review is that Wu Chunlai instructed the head of the ministry to play a word game on the report of the report. This Chongzheng Hall said that the storytelling was an official position subordinate to the Hanlin Academy, so when it was reported, the chicken thief wrote such a vague word as entering the Hanlin Academy under the name of the champion Lin Jue. Guo Chong also deliberately looked at the whereabouts of Lin Jue's award, and when he saw that he was in the Hanlin Academy, he was also satisfied. It is a very good result for Jinshi with excellent grades to enter the Hanlin Academy. So Guo Chong didn't even ask about the specific official position, and he was fooled through.
"But you're willing to do this official job of storytelling? The king inquired, and there was no future there. Just seven products of idle work, no right and no oil and water, are you willing to do this? Guo Bing frowned.
Lin Jue smiled: "I don't care, it's actually my father-in-law and eldest brother who are not happy." You are good to me, I know. But since Wu Chunlai has his eye on me, I will stay there according to his wishes. I don't have any big ambitions anyway, but it's pretty good there. ”
Guo Bing stared at Lin Jue for a long time and sighed: "You're right, it's just that this king can't get over his face." Well, stay there first, and I'll figure it out for you. It's really ashamed to say that I am the king of Liang of Zhou, and I can't even help my son-in-law when he is bullied. It's no wonder that my Liang Wangfu is looked down upon. I, Guo Bing, am so incompetent. ”
Guo Bing's description was bleak, and his face was depressed. Indeed, the dignified Prince of Zhou, it stands to reason that the power should be tilted towards the government and the opposition, and the power of the Quartet is. The relatives of the royal palace should also be chickens and dogs, and everyone has a good future. But the fact is that the Liang Wangfu is weak in the middle of the court, and has almost no ability to influence the government, so it acts cautiously and timidly. In fact, in the imperial court of the capital, if it weren't for the majesty of the emperor's relatives and relatives, so that many people had to be respectful to the Liang Palace, I am afraid that the Liang Palaces would have no place at all.
And the reason for all this is not entirely Guo Bing's fault. It is precisely his identity that leads to this result. It is precisely because he is the brother of the current emperor and a royal clan with pure blood that the person above his head is always suspicious and wary of Guo Bing. And Guo Bing has known this since he was a child, so he has to act cautiously to avoid being found by him to find a reason to deal with him. In addition, Guo Bing has been operating in Liangzhejiang Road for many years, and he has been separated from the imperial court for many years, so naturally his influence has greatly decreased. So even if you are a prince, you have to endure it.
All this is helpless, and there is no way to break the situation for a while.
Guo Kun comforted in a low voice: "Father, don't blame yourself, the child believes that things will not always be like this, and there will definitely be a turnaround." The child swore that in the future the prestige of the palace would be restored, and those who were disrespectful to us would cut off their heads one by one. ”
Guo Bing sighed: "Kun'er, you are too impatient. Today's events will be seen. In the future, if your father is gone, you should think twice about what you do, especially with your brother-in-law. ”
Guo Kun glanced at Lin Jue and nodded yes.
Guo Bing continued: "Don't be unconvinced, I can see that Lin Jue is more patient than you, and his mind is more meticulous. So it's not wrong to listen to him more. ”
Guo Kun nodded and said, "Don't worry, my son knows." I'll ask my brother-in-law more. ”
Lin Jue hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't say that, you don't dare to ask for advice, I'm far from my eldest brother." ”
Guo Bing waved his hand and said, "Lin Jue, don't be humble. The thing that displeased the king the most is that you are too deep in your mind and refuse to communicate with us. In terms of recent events, why didn't you tell us about what you have been through? Don't say it until today? Is it distrustful of us? ”
Guo Caiwei said angrily: "Daddy, my husband was not my daughter's husband before, how can I tell my father and brother everything?" Isn't Daddy still against it...... Are you against our marriage? ”
Guo Bing smacked his lips and said, "That's what I said, let's not talk about the past, now we are a family." Lin Jue, you have to understand that the honor and disgrace of my Liang Wangfu is your honor and disgrace. My Liang Wangfu is finished, and you will not be spared. Of course, your business is also the business of my palace. The king knows that you are thoughtful and resourceful. You must have a plan for the things in front of you if you choose to forbear, but if you need the help of the palace, tell me and Kun'er, and we will do our best to help you. ”
Lin Jue was stunned and said with a wry smile: "This ...... Not really. I just don't want to provoke another calculation by Wu Chunlai. Let him succeed this time, and perhaps he will be satisfied and stop harassing me. I don't have any plans. ”
Guo Bing waved his hand and said, "Look, you're like this again, you just don't want to tell the truth." This king has walked more bridges than you have walked, and has eaten more salt than you have eaten, will this king be wrong about you? Well, this king will not force you. If you don't want to say it, I won't ask more. You are a scheming man, and the king knows that you are easily reluctant to say more, and that is right. But you always remember that we are now grasshoppers on a rope, strung together for a long time. ”
Lin Jue nodded silently. Indeed, now he can't get rid of the big ship of the palace, although he used to want to get rid of the connection with the palace, but it backfired, but now he has shared interests. The tragedy of the fall of the palace in the previous life must not happen, otherwise it will be doomed with it.
Suddenly, Lin Jue felt that he was so unlucky, since he was reborn, his goal was to try his best to avoid the tragedy of the Lin family's annihilation, and he had to enter the imperial examination to step into this treacherous and changeable officialdom to strive to reverse his fate. Now, he has to carry another goal, and even the fate of Liang Wangfu has to be borne by himself. In any case, this is the mission of this life, no matter how hard it is, we must continue to shoulder it and complete it.
