Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 131

Wealthy families have always been a topic that feudal dynasties cannot avoid, whether it is the Qian Kingdom or the other three kingdoms such as Qi.

There are clans.

These people not only control the economic lifeline of a country, but also control the human resources.

A high-ranking official in the court might have been trained by them.

There is a saying that goes, "A country lasts for a hundred years, a family lasts for a thousand years," and it refers to these wealthy families.

Obviously, Her Majesty the Empress has long been troubled by this problem, but she has no solution.

Zhao Kang knew in his heart that Xiao Linglong wanted to take advantage of the conflict between himself and Lin Lang to rectify the family.

Because as Xiao Linglong said before, it doesn't matter if she is a national master now.

After all, he is just one person in this court, and there is no huge force behind him.

But now that he has a title that can be hereditary, it is different. As long as he returns to the imperial capital, the news that he has been made a prince will spread.

Zhao Kang could predict without even thinking that his Imperial Master's Mansion would soon become very lively.

Under this situation, no matter how stupid the Lin family behind Lin Lang is, they will not turn against him.

This is a life-saving talisman given to him by Her Majesty the Empress Zhao Kang.

As for the second purpose of becoming a marquis, Zhao Kang himself needs to consider how to rectify the family.

Xiao Linglong glanced at the scene outside the window, turned around, looked at Zhao Kang with beautiful eyes and said softly: "I have only one request, don't shake the foundation of the country. Under this premise, I will support you in whatever you do. you."

Zhao Kang could tell how much hope was contained in this sentence, and he nodded: "I will grasp the scale well."

Xiao Linglong breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Kang was indeed talented, and he could indeed help her.

But he is often a bit radical in his actions. Once he really breaks the truth, Zhao Kang will be in trouble even if she wants to stand up to others together.

Zhao Kang has discovered that Xiao Linglong rarely calls herself me when there are only two of them.

This should be considered a good thing in the world, right?
I also fed Her Majesty the Empress breakfast this morning, and the relationship has obviously improved.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kang boldly approached Xiao Linglong, just about to try to hold that soft little hand.

Her Majesty the Empress glared at her fiercely: "What do you want to do? Don't forget that you are a minister and I am the king!"

Zhao Kang pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "It's not like I haven't touched it before."

"roll!"

Her Majesty the Empress was so angry that she kicked the bastard on the butt. Xiao Linglong smiled happily when she saw Zhao Kang fell to pieces.

in the inn.

Eight people, including six ministers, masters and masters, gathered together.

Lin Yu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, clicked his tongue and asked cautiously: "Master Yang, Mr. Zhao, what do you two mean by your Majesty's granting of a title to the Imperial Master this time?"

Master Yang didn't even raise his eyelids and didn't answer the question. Although the old master didn't deal with Zhao Kang.

But now Zhao Kang first brought out the sweet potatoes, and then defeated Wen Zhangsheng.

No matter which one, I will contribute to the country.

For the old master who cares about the country and the country, the grudge between the two can be put to rest.

He glanced at Lin Yu from the corner of his eye, not to mention that the old master was deflated and vomited blood several times in front of Zhao Kang.

In fact, the old man was like a mirror in his heart.

Imperial Capital Lin family.

A real wealthy clan.

The current head of the family is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry in front of him. In addition, Lin Chaoyun, who once robbed a prostitute in a red building with Zhao Kang, was scared off by King Ning.Young Master Lin's father, Lin Jie, the left minister of household affairs, was also a member of the Lin family, together with Lin Lang, the minister of Honglu Temple.

Each member of the Lin family is of the first grade, and two are of the third grade.

There are only a few big families in the entire Qian Kingdom with such a prosperous official career.

Now Lin Yu asked, obviously testing his and Taifu Zhao's attitude.

After all, the two of them had the biggest conflict with Zhao Kang in the entire court.

Master Yang could imagine that as long as the two of them said something bad, this guy would definitely plan to join forces to check and balance Zhao Kang.

So he didn't say anything.

However, Taifu Zhao obviously did not have this awareness. He snorted and said rudely: "What else can you mean? Zhao Kang was a national master before and held a high position. This time I offer something like sweet potatoes that can save all people."

"If you can't be granted a title, naturally you can only be given a knighthood."

Li Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, tapped his fingers lightly on the table. He was different from everyone present.

Most of these people came from a big clan. He was from a poor background, but he was lucky enough to become a disciple of a noble family and qualified for the imperial examination.

From then on, he ascended to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and because of Li Yuan, the aristocratic family was able to ascend to heaven.

Although he is the Minister of the Ministry of War, Li Yuan is different from those military strategists who only use their muscles to think.

He glanced twice and smiled slightly. He did not say what he was thinking. He just stood up and said: "I think it's just like what Mr. Zhao said. Let's stop guessing. My lords, I'm feeling a little unwell. I'll leave first." ”

After speaking, Li Yuan stood up and walked out of the room.

Zhang Mingyuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, was stunned: "What does this guy mean?"

"You can't urinate into a chamber pot, so it doesn't matter what he does." Wang Yuanqing, the Minister of Personnel, laughed.

Master Yang also stood up and said: "Old man, old man, you can discuss it slowly among yourselves. I have to go back to rest. I will probably have to rush back to the imperial capital tomorrow."

"Master?" Lin Yu was stunned and a little surprised.

Why is this old guy different today?

Master Yang chuckled and said, "Do you have any other advice, Master Lin?"

"Don't dare, don't dare. Since the old master is tired, he should rest early." Lin Yu said quickly.

Master Yang left with his hands behind his back.

Two of the eight people left one after another, and the remaining six people also had different thoughts.

Taifu Zhao said: "Master Lin, since His Majesty has conferred a title on Zhao Kang, I think the Lin family should pay more attention to it in recent times."

Lin Yu's thoughts were slightly moved, but on the surface he didn't show any emotion. He sighed and said, "It's also my fault that the third room is short-sighted. It's not easy to offend anyone but he offends Zhao Kang."

Mr. Zhao's eyes were a little unhappy: "Let this kid play for a few days first. We are all masters who have been in the court for more than ten or twenty years. How can we always be ridden by a young man?"

"So what if you have His Majesty's support? In many cases, His Majesty is not the one who has the final say in the court."

Hearing this, Lin Yu's fists in his sleeves clenched subconsciously and stabilized.

If the master is on the team, he can fight with Zhao Kang!
On the other side, Li Yuan, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, who left the room, was wandering on the street. When he saw a government servant passing by, he immediately stopped him.

"Your name is Zhang Long, right?"

Zhang Long stopped and looked back at the middle-aged man who called him. Thinking that this man was just a few steps behind the empress when harvesting sweet potatoes during the day, he did not dare to neglect him.

"Yes sir."

"Take me to see the Imperial Master, Mr. Zhao." Li Yuan said softly.
