Chapter 400: Divide the fields
Chapter 400 Dividing Fields
Yin Liuxuan thought about it and replied: "At present, almost all the dignitaries of Qinghe have turned to the queen mother's party, advocating that King Qinghe should be the emperor's younger brother, and some of the old ministers of Jingling City support the two concubine sons left by Emperor Chonghua, Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai and Beibin Wang Lintingyan, the other part has not taken a stand."
Chu Nanzhi nodded slightly.
Have a clear understanding of the current situation.
Just thinking about the poison that Mrs. Chen suffered in the inn just now, she was still full of doubts.
If Lin Jinmu is really just an insignificant person, it is really hard to figure out who is behind the tax and bank case.
Furthermore, after this contact with King Dongjin, this person doesn't seem to know Lin Jinxiao's identity, so he can't afford to frame the little boy.
Lin Jinxiao still had a lot of things in his mind that he wanted to discuss with Chu Nanzhi in detail alone. Seeing that she had finished asking, he hurriedly told Yin Liuxuan, "Go out first."
Yin Liuxuan glanced at the brochure on the desk: "What arrangements should be made for those servants, please tell my cousin."
As he spoke, he immediately added: "These are the candidates carefully selected by the Empress Dowager. Before leaving, the Empress Dowager ordered the guards and attendants to be by His Highness's side."
Lin Jinxiao was very confused. He really didn't know why the Empress Dowager took such meticulous care of him. It was really frightening.
After thinking about it, he had no choice but to obey and said: "You can arrange the handy room in the front yard and the side room in the inner yard yourself, and pick a few capable and smart ones to serve my father-in-law and mother-in-law in Tong'an Village. Arrangements will be made after the completion of the new palace."
Yin Liuxuan went out knowingly, and in the quiet study room, Lin Jinxiao stared at the various catalogs on the table, and asked slowly: "Chu Nanzhi, tell me the truth, did Third Uncle really die of epilepsy?"
Chu Nanzhi smiled at him: "What kind of result do you hope for?"
"Why do you ask me?"
Lin Jinxiao pulled her into his arms, pinched her slender chin, and said affectionately: "You promised me not to hide anything about me. No matter what happens in the future, we will face it together."
Chu Nanzhi saw that he was so serious, so he had no choice but to answer seriously:
"Actually, I haven't figured it out yet. The third uncle made every effort to please Concubine Yue, but angered the king of Dongjin. This poison must have been sent by the king of Dongjin to pour it into the tea. The reason why I didn't startle the snake is because the third uncle The poison in the mother-in-law's place is the same as that of the head of the Shen family."
"Gook kiss poison?"
Lin Jinxiao's eyebrows trembled suspiciously: "Could it be that you think that King Dongjin has something to do with the three eldest princesses, and has something to do with the tax bank case?"
Chu Nanzhi shook his head: "If I dared to be sure, I would have punctured him just now, but if not, how did he get the hook kiss poison?"
"Check it out again, don't be in a hurry."
Lin Jinxiao pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Du Sankui has also been captured alive, and we can always find some clues from him."
After finishing speaking, he picked up the list of rewards from the table and said in a gentle voice while examining them carefully:
"This time the imperial court rewards a lot. You can handle the gold, silver, soft and brocade by yourself. That is, the five thousand acres of Yongye farmland. I want to give half of it to my father-in-law, mother-in-law and your two sisters, so that they can have it in the future." As a reliance, the remaining Shiye land will be rent-free for those people who are struggling to make a living for three years so that they can make a transition, what do you think?"
"You are sympathetic to the people. Since you have formulated the policy of equalizing land, it is feasible to set an example. There is nothing wrong with it."
Chu Nanzhi affirmed his proposal to give rent-free land to the poor, but it made her feel a little uneasy that he distributed thousands of acres of hereditary fertile land to the Chu family.
"Little treasures will also need to start a family when they grow up. You should leave more furniture for them."
Not being paid for nothing, Chu Nanzhi didn't want to rely on him to enrich her natal family.
Although it is difficult to maintain absolute equality with him now, you still need to have the backbone you should have.
"Little treasures are still young, didn't we leave half of the Yongye land for them? A father should indeed save more furniture for them in case of emergencies, but it can't let them develop a pampered temperament , otherwise no matter how much furniture there is, it will be ruined."
Lin Jinxiao still wants to help the Yue family more or less in his heart:
"Your family is different. Father-in-law and mother-in-law should not continue to work hard for half their lives. You three sisters can rely on you. Let's not mention the matter of Nanxiang. Although Shu Yang has changed his mind now, he is still a son-in-law and can't do it. Officer, you said that if you don't rely on me, who will you rely on?"
Chu Nanzhi couldn't refute what was justified.
Chu Nanzhi put her arms around his neck, thinking of the two little princesses, each of whom had a distinguished background, she couldn't help asking a bit sourly: "Lin Dalang, do you regret your promise to me?"
"Chu Nanzhi, I have never really understood your husband."
Lin Jinxiao probably guessed the worries in her heart, and said frankly: "If I was only greedy for worldly fame and fortune, I would have stayed in Jingling City in the first place. Many things in this life can be won by working hard. Only an interesting soul Meeting is a matter of fate, since God has bestowed on me such a rare fate, I will cherish it."
Chu Nanzhi was very moved when he heard that, took the booklet in his hand and put it back on the table, and said with a smile:
"Then you should be busy with the affairs of the state capital. You don't have to worry about these trivial matters at home. I will arrange and take care of my father, mother, Ah Xiang, and A Zhu sisters. You are very considerate for the little treasures. For Shu Yang This family should be treated in the same way. It is really inappropriate to give them so many fields right now. It is enough for you to let Erlang send a servant to serve them. I will give them some money every month in the future. I will let my parents eat and drink No worries."
Although what she said was reasonable, maybe it was because she was worried that Liu Shuyang would not have a long memory and continue to live the old days, but Lin Jinxiao always felt that she was going to be too fussy with him.
Before she was forced to accept the land deed and ten thousand taels of banknotes, but she was willing to accept them under the guise of saving her life and reconciling her divorce, but now she refuses to accept these furniture, and she must draw a clear line with herself.
She behaved differently from ordinary women in every way. Although he admired her, she was also full of worries.
It is not easy for a woman who pursues equality and independence to hold her heart firmly.
Lin Jinxiao stared at her deeply, and said earnestly, "Chu Nanzhi, you are my wife, and from now on, you will be the princess of the Pingning Palace and the master of our family. After all, you have the final say on this family. How do you want to arrange it?" I don't care, but I'm also the son-in-law of your Chu family, no matter what, I can't let my father-in-law and mother-in-law be wronged."
"Look at what you said, it makes me, a daughter, treat my parents poorly."
Chu Nanzhi glared at him angrily, and didn't want to continue entangled in this matter.
Thinking of what Chang Lao had explained, she hesitated and said, "Now His Majesty has pardoned the world, and your younger brother Lin Jinhong has also been released. You can arrange some errands for him when you have time, so that he won't be idle like before. in the village."
"Well, what do you ask him to do."
Lin Jinxiao's face suddenly darkened, that family had no kindness to him at all.
Chu Nanzhi smiled wryly.
She didn't bother to take care of this matter, after all, it was Chang Lao Nie who explained it, so it's hard not to comment.
If Lin Tingshu had really replaced Lin Jinxiao with his own child back then, he would not be able to tolerate his only blood, which would indeed be chilling.
"For nothing else, just for your father."
Chu Nanzhi reminded pertinently.
In this way, one day when the little boy finds out his own identity, at least he won't blame her for being a lady for not reporting her knowledge, and he won't make him feel guilty.
