After lunch, Lin Jue took Guo Caiwei to the fish pond pavilion in the back garden to watch the fish, and the husband and wife watched the koi in the pond compete for food and frolic, but they were also happy. However, Lin Jue couldn't help but sigh in the end. Guo Caiwei noticed that Lin Jue seemed to be in a bad mood, and was busy asking. So Lin Jue informed Guo Caiwei of today's events.

"Husband, since Mr. and Lord Yan are important, why don't you agree? Isn't your storyteller in the Chongzheng Palace also not very developed, isn't this a great opportunity? Guo Caiwei was a little puzzled by Lin Jue's decision.

Lin Jue sighed: "Don't I want to have a good future? I am studying and entering the office, is it just to be an official who tells stories in the Chongzheng Palace? Am I willing to be reduced to such a state that I am ridiculed by my colleagues and ridiculed by everyone? Even if it's a family member, it's inevitable that there will be some discussions, when I don't know? ”

Guo Caiwei said with a smile: "Husband, don't worry, the concubine doesn't dislike you." Even if my husband is a fisher and a woodcutter, I don't care. We are living a good life now, if you are not the head of the Lin family, we are carefree every day, I don't know how happy we are. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Baby, people must have long-term worries if they don't have near-term worries." Many things need to be prepared for a rainy day, and at this time, it is too late to be comfortable, and when the wind and rain hit. ”

Guo Caiwei said angrily: "It's so serious, it's scared to death." ”

Lin Juexin said: You naturally don't know, but I do. Not to mention anything else, your Liang Wangfu won't be able to jump for a few years, and when the time comes, we will all be finished. If I don't think about these things now, who will save us in the future?

Seeing that Lin Jue was silent, Guo Caiwei threw all the fish food in her hand into the pool, causing a group of red carp to come forward and scramble for food, Guo Caiwei stepped forward and took Lin Jue's arm and spoke softly.

"Husband, don't think about it too much, are you because of Mr. Fang and Lord Yan, they are a little unhappy because of the matter of saving the second uncle. Do you blame them? So you're not going to go this time? ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said, "Wei'er, you also underestimate your husband, am I that kind of person?" Your father and brother have not taken advantage of the fire to rob in this matter, what have I said? My Lin family caused the trouble themselves, should I blame others? Is it reasonable? When I was assigned to be this official, neither the palace nor Mr. helped me, so what did I say? I'm not that kind of person. ”

Guo Caiwei hurriedly said: "It's my misunderstanding that is wrong, in fact, I am a little unhappy in my heart." I also thought that my husband was the same as me. yes, how can my husband be such a cautious person? ”

Lin Jue was amused by her, wrapped his arms around her waist, buried his nose in her bun and sniffed the fragrance of her hair, and closed his eyes silently.

Guo Caiwei said softly: "Then I don't understand, I went back to my mother's house and listened to my father say that the newly established yamen of the 'Three Divisions and Regulations Division' established by Yan Zhengsu is a great yamen." I don't know how many people want to drill into it. Lord Yan transferred her husband to take up her post, why didn't your husband go again? ”

Lin Jue left Guo Caiwei's body slightly, looked at her pretty face, and said in a deep voice: "Wei'er, there are two kinds of opportunities in this world, one is a real opportunity, or it can be called an opportunity. One is the false opportunity real trap, which can be called speculation. If you want to soar, you can do both. Those who seize the opportunity can rise to the top, and speculators can also take advantage of the situation. In your opinion, which is the right path to choose? ”

Guo Caiwei was stunned, frowned, and said, "Naturally, we are on the right path...... Actually, I don't really understand, I'm just a woman. ”

Lin Jue said: "Let's put it this way. Lord Yan and Mr. Fang now have the support of the Holy Lord, and they are about to carry out the matter of changing the law and reviving the revolution. After overthrowing the three divisions, everyone in the court knew that Lord Yan and Mr. Yan were now gaining power. At this time, many people will cling to them in order to drill camps, and they will grab what they want under the guise of participating in the law change, which is called speculation. They are not really in favor of the reform, they are just a group of speculators. ”

Guo Caiwei frowned and groaned: "I see. Don't Lord Yan and Mr. Fang know this? They'll be able to identify too. ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Screening, how to screen?" If people's hearts are visible, then it is natural to see at a glance. If everyone speaks from the bottom of their hearts, and there is no wrong word in the world and no lies, there is naturally nothing to worry about. It's a pity that the heart is in the stomach, and no one knows what is in the heart. ”

Guo Caiwei was stunned and said, "What does the husband mean is that you don't support Lord Yan and Mr. Fang's changes, right?" ”

Lin Jueleng said: "Where did this come from? ”

Guo Caiwei tilted her head and said: "You don't want to be a speculator, that's why you don't want to be called in." If you are a supporter of changing the Fa, you have a clear conscience, and naturally you will not refuse. ”

Lin Jue stretched out his hand and pinched Guo Caiwei's creamy face, and said with a smile: "When did you learn to guess people's hearts?" I have to admit that you have a point. In fact, I've always been conflicted, saying that I'm against it, but I'm not against it. The current situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if measures are not taken, the situation will be difficult. But if Lord Yan and Mr. Fang stand up and change the law like this, it may not be a good thing. ”

"I'm getting more and more confused about what my husband said." Guo Caiwei said with a smile.

Lin Jue said: "To put it simply, I feel that with the style of Lord Yan and Mr. Fang, this change will be like a thunderbolt of storm." It's definitely not a spring breeze and rain. In all dynasties, changes in the law have caused a bloody storm. And the changes that Lord Yan and Mr. Fang are about to carry out are probably even more violent, and the turmoil and conflicts caused will also be even greater. ”

Guo Caiwei said solemnly: "How did the husband know? Is it because of the temperament of Lord Yan and Mr. Fang? ”

Lin Jue nodded slowly and said, "Yes, I thought I knew them before, but now I realize that I don't know much about them." But one thing is for sure, Lord Yan and Mr. Fang can do everything for the sake of changing the law. They also have an uncompromising style. And the reform of the law needs to balance the interests of all parties in order to proceed smoothly. Not to mention anything else, just take what has happened as an example, is there a suspicion that they used too much force to destroy the Yamen of the Three Divisions? Although the crimes in the Yamen of the Three Divisions were discovered, this completely destroyed the financial department of the Great Zhou, and the consequences were not necessarily good. ”

Guo Caiwei nodded slowly and said, "What you said is the same as what my father said." Daddy said that they acted too much and did not consider the feelings of others in the court. Although he was neutral and powerful in the case of the Sansi Yamen, it also attracted a lot of criticism. ”

Lin Jue sneered and said, "This is just the beginning. I don't know how much criticism there will be. Take the establishment of the Three Divisions and Regulations Department as an example, which is an extremely excessive yamen setting. It is said that the new yamen of the three departments and regulations department is a combination of military, government, and financial power, and the power is boundless. If you think about it, the basic structure of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the separation of military, political and financial powers, and the reason why the founding emperor did this was to learn from the experience of the fall of the previous dynasty and not let the courtiers centralize too much power. And Lord Yan and Mr. Fang did this, didn't they completely subvert the basic system set by the Great Zhou for more than 100 years? It's not a trivial matter, it's a big thing. This is a small Chinese book made alone, a small court. Soon, this alone will be grabbed by people and make a fuss. ”

Guo Caiwei was shocked, she understood, and she also somewhat understood why Lin Jue was reluctant to serve in the yamen. It is clear that it is a nest of right and wrong, and when he goes, he is asking for trouble.

"I see, the husband can see it clearly, the concubine is confused, and she doesn't understand anything. But...... Since the husband has seen this, shouldn't he talk to Lord Yan and Mr. Fang and remind them? ”

"It's useless, who are Mr. and Lord Yan? Will they not understand the seriousness of the matter? They also know that it is a big taboo to do so. However, at the moment they could not stop. The matter of changing the law is like an arrow from the string, and there is only one way forward, and there is no talk of taking it back. So they had no choice but to rush forward. I was hesitant to help them. I don't want to see them fall into the abyss, maybe I can't be selfish, I should go and give them advice and do my part. However, I also felt that they might not listen to what I said, and I was afraid that in the end they would give birth to mustard. I'm conflicted, I'm struggling, and I don't know what I'm supposed to do. ”

Lin Jue sighed, grabbed handfuls of the box of fish food on the railing, and sprinkled it in the water. The water splashes in the water, and the fish grab food, making endless noise.

Guo Caiwei hurriedly grabbed his hand and said, "How can you feed koi like this?" Isn't that to kill them? You can't toss the fish when you're restless. ”

Lin Jue sighed, waved his hand and said, "I'll go to the study to be quiet and sort out my thoughts." ”

Guo Caiwei looked at Lin Jue's distant back, sighed, and turned her head. The pond under the summer sun in front of you is clear and clear, the lotus leaf fields, and the pink lotus flowers are dotted among the lotus leaves, and the scenery is as beautiful as a picture. Beneath the surface of the water, koi swim leisurely.

"You are much happier than men, free and free from the world. Look at the master of my family, but I'm going to be white-headed. Guo Caiwei said to the fish in the water.

……

In the evening, Lin Jue was reading a book in the study, and someone from the front house reported that Mrs. Fang was here. Lin Jue hurriedly put down the book and came to the front hall, and saw that Mrs. Fang, who was wrapped in flower cloth, was standing in the hall and bowed to a pot of magnolia bamboo in the hall.

Lin Jue stepped forward quickly, arched his hand and smiled: "Master? How did you get here? Oh, you're a rarity. ”

Mrs. Fang turned around and said with a smile on her face: "You from a big family, I have passed through a few times, but I didn't dare to come in. Tut-tut, this house is so magnificent. My wife has never lived in such a house in her life. Is this all a dowry of the royal palace? No wonder you're marrying the lord of the palace. How can someone else have such a good house for you to live in? ”

Lin Jue scratched his head and said, "Master, don't be so sarcastic about students. ”

Mrs. Fang chuckled: "That's it, Mrs. Fang just can't help it." Hey, don't blame your wife for being too talkative, her heart is small. Women are cautious. ”

Lin Jue smiled: "I don't dare to hear about my master's fault." Is there something wrong with my wife's coming? You're all there to do. ”

Mrs. Fang said, "There is indeed something, hmm...... I'm here to ask you to eat and drink at home. Lord Yan came to the house for dinner tonight, and your husband said that you would like to accompany him. No, I was supposed to let someone else invite you, I happened to go to the Bianhe River to buy fresh shrimp, and I passed by here, so I came to tell you by the way. ”
