Chapter 263 Bubble(1/2)
Author: My little carp
As we all know, China has been a major agricultural and commercial country since ancient times.
Time flies, time flies.
Guangdong and Guangxi, along the coast.
The merchant fleet won a great victory overseas, no, it was very profitable. The governor specially ordered a grand fireworks banquet to be held on the coast.
All the people participated at will, and the whole house celebrated together.
"Bang~" the fireworks rose and the banquet began.
At the port, Lin Ruhai and his wife sat quietly on the shore, looking at the gorgeous fireworks in the distance.
The sea is vast and the fireworks are gorgeous.
A magnificent night sky is exuding colorful fireworks, and the diffuse fireworks are dazzling and full of mixed feelings.
A little bit of light gathered, and Lin Daiyu appeared to the side holding the little yellow cat.
Lin Ruhai did not come forward to contact her, because he knew that it was his daughter's thoughts and a dream.
"Daughter, how are you? Are the birthday fireworks arranged for you by your father nice?" Lin Ruhai said proudly.
Lin Daiyu raised her head, and brilliance bloomed in her dark pupils.
Slowly stroking the cute thing in her arms, the girl's mind wandered, and she suddenly remembered a song that Lele once sang to her.
"If you are the fireworks on the sea and I am the foam of the waves, at a certain moment, your light illuminates me..."
Fireworks and waves and foam at sea, their existence is fleeting.
The sea is vast, but fireworks are rarely set off, but the foam will dissipate every moment.
Therefore, the moment when a bubble is illuminated by fireworks, it is an extremely lucky moment.
In its limited and pitiful life, it was lucky enough to encounter such a beam of light, which allowed Bubble to see the most beautiful and wonderful brilliance in the world.
This is so much like love, because love is a very unlikely event.
She met the half she wanted to meet among tens of millions of people. In the endless river of millions of years, in the wilderness of endless time, she happened to catch up with him, neither a step too early nor a step too late.
Fireworks are born with light, and bubbles are humble luck when encountering a beam of light.
After watching the fireworks, the family quietly watched and listened to the waves of the sea.
Life lasts for a hundred years, but the sea has flowed for countless years, and human life is too short.
"I heard that Emperor Qing's health was not very good, and now he has asked the prince to assist the government?" Lin Ruhai suddenly asked.
Lin Daiyu nodded.
Although there were always Yuan-Building Pills provided by the Lin family, Emperor Qing could be said to have worked hard for the new dynasty.
In recent years, there have been great peasant uprisings in Sichuan, Chu, and Shaanxi. There have also been overseas barbarian countries from north to south, which have carried out various invasions into the Central Plains, spread sects, and traded tobacco and drugs.
Almost every day when Emperor Qing woke up, he found that his country was in turmoil. In addition to these external chaos, the officials in the court were all in conflict with each other, and corruption was rampant.
Even his younger brother King Zhongshun was involved in many things.
What can he do? Pull some people together, fight some people, and negotiate with some people.
There was no day off anyway. The key was that no matter how hard he tried, it seemed to have no effect.
Rebellions occur every year in various places and never stop. No matter how strict the ban on smoking is, there are still opium dens everywhere, and many local officials even take the lead.
Not to mention corruption, in the end even the national treasury will be reduced by more than half once counted.
Emperor Qing often felt that he did not understand the world, and eventually became depressed and ill. His health deteriorated over the years, and even the Yuan-Building Pill did not have much effect.
Heart disease is difficult to treat, let alone Emperor Qing, who is almost sixty years old.
"Hey!" Lin Ruhai let out a long sigh.
I still remember that Emperor Qing was kind to him, so he sacrificed his life to repay the imperial court, and as a scholar, he fought against the huge salt merchants in Lianghuai.
Later, he was transferred to Guangdong and Guangxi. Faced with all kinds of money and beauty temptations, he remained unmoved and did not neglect his wife at his side. He worked hard and fast and finally developed Guangdong and Guangxi into one of the top three tax-paying mansions in the Central Plains.
I thought that he would be transferred to the center next, and the monarch and his ministers would work together to become the chief and deputy envoys. One would be stationed in Kyoto, and the other would sweep the world outside, creating the most prosperous era in the history, and letting future generations watch a good story about the monarch and his ministers.
As a result, Emperor Qing softened his heart and seemed to be afraid. Although he fully supported Guangdong and Guangxi, he was still hesitant and timid about corrupt officials.
"Dad, I heard that Emperor Qing said in court that he would call you back to be the assistant minister of the new emperor." Lin Daiyu suddenly said.
Lin Ruhai's heart sank.
The transfer of imperial power in the past dynasties has been extremely dangerous. If he is ignored or demoted, it will be fine. The new emperor will give him a title after he succeeds, and the monarch and his ministers will put on a show, and they will be the old ministers of the two dynasties.
But when he reaches his current position and continues to be granted titles, what else can the new emperor be granted? A king? Or is it a stepping stone to become the new emperor and achieve his supreme glory and majesty?
"Is this true?" Lin Ruhai asked seriously.
Lin Daiyu nodded.
"Meow~" The little yellow cat jumped into Jia Min's arms and pushed hard.
Adult young women seem to have a unique charm.
Jia Min squinted her eyes and kissed her daughter directly, regardless of her angry expression.
"Lele is still cute."
Lin Ruhai rolled his eyes, stopped paying attention, and then fell into deep thought.
He has a family of young and old, and there are also many people from the Lin family's branches. In total, there are hundreds of people, old and young. Do they just rely on whether the new emperor will be merciful?
If you treat me with sincerity, I will not betray you. If I treat you with sincerity, if you betray me again, then I will treat you with my head in return? There is no such truth in the world!
"Daughter, what do you think?" Lin Ruhai glanced around and asked quietly.
Lin Daiyu stood up, stood with her hands behind her hands, looked at the horizon, her aura was overwhelming, and whispered: "In this world, except Lele, no one can make me kneel down and surrender."
Lin Ruhai looked at the sexy cat in his wife's arms in surprise:???
Little yellow cat:
I've never had to shovel shit like this before, she's talking nonsense, it's not me!
Royal study room.
"Father, here is the Jinke Examination List. Do you want to consider the rankings of the ministers again?" Prince Mianning handed over the memorial and said respectfully.
That year, the Tianli Sect rebels broke into the palace, and he led the team to stop them using blunderbuss. Although there were many masters among those rebels who could fly over walls, they were still powerless against the blunderbuss.
Within ten steps, the gun is fast and accurate.
From then on, he was valued by Emperor Qing and officially became the crown prince.
Emperor Qing casually took the memorial, glanced twice and saw the name at the bottom of the top three list: Jia Baoyu. When he raised the corner of his mouth, he thought of the young man who was born with a jade in his mouth and looked like a dragon and a phoenix.
After being expelled from the Jia family, living in a rural place with no power or influence, he could still pass the top three examinations, which is really good.
The key point is that a guy who is related to the rebels can actually appear in the imperial examination room openly and win honors.
This court is rotten to the core.
Moreover, he is probably only in his thirties now. Time is still long, and he may still be able to do something in the future. But he is already old. Every time he sees himself in the mirror, he even thinks of his father in his old age.
appearance.
He has white hair and spots on his face, and sometimes he can’t even hear clearly what others are saying.
He is really old.
Every time he took the Yuan-Building Pill, he could barely feel that his life was still alive. But just when he lay down, he thought of the big and small things happening in the country, and he couldn't sleep again.
The government forces the people to rebel. He obviously thinks about his people every day, so why do those people keep rebelling against him?
He could not sleep well at night, and every day he worried about how the country would become like this and how history would judge him in the future.
Did the new dynasty fall under the Qing Emperor? Did the Emperor decline?
‘Hometown’? If there really is such a place, then everyone in future generations will laugh at him when they see him.
"Ning'er, come here." Emperor Qing greeted.
The prince stepped forward, very seriously, his attitude was the same as that of Emperor Qing back then, benevolent, righteous and filial, everything was like a reincarnation.
Emperor Qing looked him up and down and seemed to see another version of himself.
"Prince, I leave the world to you!"
"Father!" The prince's eyes were filled with tears.
Emperor Qing stretched out his hand, interrupted him and continued: "Haha, in these years, those political affairs have been handled well, and all officials have recognized it. I can rest assured that the world will be entrusted to you.
Let me tell you two things:
First: Lin Ruhai, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, this person is extremely capable and loyal. However, he is a bit cruel in his methods, so the officials have not allowed him to return to Beijing.
However, I have been suffering from deep mistakes from top to bottom. If it were not for such a person to turn the tide, I am afraid that I would have perished in your hands.
So I plan to call him back before passing the throne to you and serve as an auxiliary minister. By then, I will drag anyone who disagrees with me to go with him. Anyway, my reputation is already extremely bad.
To be continued...
