Chapter 274: Do not shy away from relatives
Chapter 274 Promoting talents without avoiding relatives
Fourth Uncle Lin Fen has been thinking about the smashing of the restaurant. These days, the officials of Luyan Port have been transferred to Haikang County. There is no one in charge in the city. It is much more chaotic than before.
After being silent for a long time, seeing that the family had finished explaining the matter, he asked humbly, "Dalang, Ting Zhen, let my carriage pick up Nan Zhi and her mother and children later, shall we?"
"Fourth Uncle, you are very old, how can I leave this kind of thing to you."
Lin Tingzhen didn't understand his intention, so he said carelessly: "My nephew should pick it up in person."
"Cough, it's okay."
Fourth Uncle Lin Fen coughed softly, and then showed a bitter look on his face: "I also thought of going over to ask that girl Nan Zhi for advice, to see if I can think of a way to catch those troublemakers in the city."
Lin Tingzhen immediately understood. Seeing the solemn faces of the three elders, he immediately guessed that they were all pretending to be serious:
Second Uncle Lin Bo is afraid that he wants to ask his nephew to mention the pharmacy again. I heard that Hongwen Medical Center has recently received a lot of prescriptions and added a lot of new medicines, which made the Second Uncle's medical clinic even worse;
Third Uncle was obsessed with the fact that Chen's mother and son were expelled from the clan, and wanted to intercede. Hearing his tone just now, he might still want to emulate what he did back then and put people in his nephew's house;
Fourth Uncle's troublesome matter has been tossing their father and son for a long time and has not been effectively resolved.
"Grandma, bear, anyway, today I am sincerely caring for Da Lang, and entertaining their family."
Lin Tingzhen couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart, but saw Li Sanlang from Anlin Village outside the door striding in.
Seeing that there were members of the Lin family, Li Ce bowed respectfully to everyone, looked at Lin Jinxiao and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Mr. Chang and Mr. Nie are asking to see you."
"teacher?"
Lin Jinxiao looked terrified: "The two old people are here, why don't you bring them in directly, and ask people to wait outside."
After finishing speaking, he ignored the clan elders and went straight out to meet Chang Yanjue and Nie Huai'an.
Seeing the elders waiting outside the door, Lin Jinxiao apologized full of shame: "The two teachers come here, just go in directly, why bother to let Saburo tell you, isn't this a student of Zhesha?"
"Etiquette and law cannot be broken."
Chang Yanjue said solemnly: "Now you are the county magistrate of Luyan Port, and you are also in charge of the six county magistrates and the eastern defense envoy, so you should behave like an official. in."
Lin Tingzhen and the three clan elders who followed were all ashamed.
Nie Huai'an noticed that he didn't have a cane, so he hurried over to support him and said with concern: "Da Lang, your leg injury has healed? Why did this old man hear the rumors from the county people that you took office on crutches?"
Lin Jinxiao's eyes wandered back and forth between the Lin clan and the elders, and finally he could only answer to the point: "Actually, there is no serious problem, but I was afraid that the lady would be worried, so I came here on my back."
"Well, then you still have to listen to that girl Nan Zhi."
Nie Huai'an squeezed his chin, and said in thought: "Nan Zhi is a person who is proficient in medical principles, and what she explained must have her reasons. It's only a month or so after being injured for a hundred days. Even if you can barely walk, you should use crutches as much as possible. Otherwise, it is not a trivial matter to leave behind stubborn illnesses."
"What the teacher taught is that the students wrote it down."
I don't know why the two elders came to visit suddenly at this time, Lin Jinxiao asked hesitantly: "I don't know what the two teachers are talking about?"
The two elders looked at the Lin clan together with heavy eyes, Lin Tingzhen smiled understandingly, gestured to the three elders, and then said: "Da Lang, the old uncle and your uncles will go back first, you are done with your work." Remember to go home."
Afterwards, several people bowed their hands to each other and bid farewell.
Lin Jinxiao led the two elders into the back hall, and asked Li Ce to call someone to make tea. When he saw the box on the table, he first ordered: "Sanlang, you personally send the things to your sister-in-law, and let her keep them safe. on."
The house deed was originally intended to be given to her, and the 20 mu of paddy fields were bought back at 30 taels of silver per mu. Even if her fish pond and restaurant are not ready in the future, these are enough for her to use.
Li Ce didn't see the box under the copywriting, looked at the gift box beside his desk, couldn't help feeling secretly happy, took the box and ran away.
Lin Jinxiao didn't know why this guy was so excited all of a sudden, presumably he was just happy to be promoted.
Still in the midst of speculation, Nie Huai'an said with a gratified smile, "Da Lang, you did a good job in this trip to Haikang County. You used thunder to clean up the officialdom and folk customs in Haikang County in just a few days. It is really rare to be able to make such a great contribution at the beginning of taking office, to get rid of scabies for the imperial court, and to find out the hideouts of Dongsang people, so as to eliminate hidden worries."
Chang Yanjue was also overjoyed when he heard it, took a sip of tea with a half-joyed and half-worry expression, and said slowly: "Princess Shu flew a pigeon to send a letter, a letter was just delivered at noon, saying that your Majesty heard about this, Longyan was very happy, The Empress Dowager is also very happy, and is planning to reward you, Dalang, you will have to make persistent efforts."
"It's just a small contribution. How dare your Majesty and the Empress Dowager care about it so much? The students are terrified."
Lin Jinxiao was a little puzzled when he heard that, he didn't expect the emperor and the empress dowager to treat the Lin clan of Luyan Port so favorably.
A few days ago in Haikang County, in order to collect evidence, only with the sword of the emperor, he confiscated the property of officials and evil gentry without reporting.
He looked at the two elders with trepidation and trepidation, and said with a slight smile: "Actually, the trip to Haikang County can be so smooth, it is due to my poor woman who won a just right time for the students, so that I can take advantage of the opportunity to catch Haikang County and the party involved in the crime." She is the one who deserves the credit for the officials’ criminal evidence.”
"Well, this girl Nan Zhi does have some skills."
This old man has already seen it.
Chang Yanjue stroked his beard in relief, and thought to himself: "It seems that this time Xiao'er has to take the risk, and it is a wise move to show the Son of Heaven Sword and go to Haikang County to help."
Seeing that the two elders showed satisfied expressions, Lin Jinxiao thought that Chu Nanzhi had to write and leave the book for her by himself. Although he tried his best to arrange everything for her properly, without his protection, he still couldn't avoid being embarrassing in the future .
If she can get an official position, maybe the situation will be much better.
After deliberating in his mind, he carefully inspected the elders, and tentatively asked: "Now that the imperial court is employing people, the ability of the poor woman to investigate cases is obvious to all. The students thought that it would be better for her to be the same as Princess Shu." , go out to serve the imperial court, what do the two teachers think?"
The two elders immediately looked happy when they saw him seriously begging for an official position for his wife.
Nie Huai'an joked with a smile: "Da Lang, you have a pretty good temperament, but what kind of official do you want to ask for your wife? Li Sanlang has followed you for many years, so he has ability. Princess Shu also granted you the right to make recommendations independently, but you let Li Sanlang be the last official history of the county lieutenant's mansion, letting outsiders insert the posts of county lieutenant and military supervisor in vain."
"Da Lang's decision is wise."
Chang Yanjue half-closed his eyes, and said with a deep expression: "Right now, Luyan Port is like a piece of sweet pastry roasted on the stove. Everyone wants to come in and share a piece. The high wall is so windy that no one can come in and no one can go out, and those forces in the undercurrent will not show their feet, but will gather together to bake Da Lang's sweet pastry."
"What Chang said makes sense, I just want the forces in the dark to show their feet again."
Thinking of the tax and bank case and the forces behind it, Lin Jinxiao still has no clue, Jiang Xueyi is now an opportunity.
