Jingtai Fenghua

Chapter 64 Yu Qian’s temptation

After listening to Yu Qian's words, Lin Cunde smiled bitterly, thought for a while, and said: "Yu Shangshu thinks highly of me too much. I am just a scholar. How can I conspire? The last time I went to the palace, His Majesty met me and just asked me about soap and soap." This time, you came here to express your gratitude to me.

As for the conspiracy and conspiracy you mentioned, I honestly don’t know, and I don’t think I have the ability. If I had the ability, I believe that I would already be His Majesty’s guest. The minister should ask my uncle, maybe he knows better.

How can I know about the affairs of the court and the palace? Who can tell me?Besides, I just recovered from a serious illness some time ago, my parents and brother are all dead, and I have not yet come out of my grief. How can I think about other people's affairs? Yu Shangshu, you think highly of me!

I'm ashamed, student, but I really didn't know what you were talking about. I was thinking just now, if outsiders think so, I will be in trouble, and I will be wronged. But I have heard that many palace ladies and father-in-laws have been released from the palace, and many people are not Convinced, when they find out, they won’t retaliate against me? "

When Yu Qian heard Lin Cunde's explanation, he didn't believe it in his heart. Of course, Lin Cunde would not admit it easily. As Lin Cunde said, if outsiders knew about it, he would also be in trouble. Not to mention other people, just one The Empress Dowager Sun would make Lin Cunde walk around without food.

At this moment, Yu Qian also felt that he had just been Meng Lang, and now there was Zhu Ji and the three of them present. Many secrets could not be told. After all, it would be difficult to tell who would leak it. It was normal for Lin Cunde to have such scruples.

So he also smiled and said: "That's right, it seems that I was wrong, but you are not bad at all. You can make soap and soap. I heard that the profit is huge, and the profit is 30 taels of silver in a month, but is it true?"

"I can admit this, almost. However, it is also new now. Moreover, after buying this thing, it will take a while to use it, so the business is good now, but after a while, it may not be good. Can it be maintained? 20 taels of silver a month would be good!" Lin Cunde immediately smiled and nodded, saying that he still needs to admit some of it, otherwise Yu Qian may not believe it.

"That's not bad. The Queen has this money and can better control the harem. You have helped the Queen a lot. In addition, His Majesty has also helped! However, it is also difficult for Your Majesty now. I don't know if Your Majesty can be reconciled. Did you say that?" Yu Qian looked at Lin Cunde and asked,

Lin Cunde looked at Yu Qian with a confused look on his face, acting like he didn't know anything.

"It seems that His Majesty didn't tell you!" Yu Qian could only say when he saw Lin Cunde's behavior, but he still didn't believe it. He thought that His Majesty must have told Lin Cunde, and he might even have a plan, but Lin Cunde didn't admit it. , but it doesn’t matter, we will see how His Majesty takes action next.

"How could your Majesty tell me about the affairs of the court? I am just a student!" Lin Cunde said mockingly to himself.

"Well, but I'm curious about how you made this soap and soap, this stove, and this tea table? Especially the soap and soap!" Yu Qian continued to ask.

Lin Cunde smiled again, and then complained: "Oh, I got angry when I mentioned this matter. Brother Shangde may know that at that time, after my parents left, there was no money in the family. My servants said that they wanted to I was asked to buy two pieces of soap, so I went and bought it. I thought about how much the soap for washing clothes would be worth. Who knows, it’s worth two hundred cents. That’s half a load of food. I feel bad. I couldn't sleep all night.

I just thought about how to make something similar to a pancreas, so I figured it out by myself. In the end, I had to figure it out by myself. It also took a long time and a lot of money! "

"Oh, you did it just because of this? Isn't this incredible?" Yu Qian couldn't believe what Lin Cunde said. If it was really that simple, someone would have done it long ago.

Lin Cunde immediately emphasized: "It's true, and it's a special coincidence. I almost gave up at the beginning, but in the end, he succeeded the last time. Hey, it was like a divine help. Yu Shangshu, there are some things that are difficult to explain!"

"Oh, what about this tea table and stove? Same thing?" Yu Qian looked at Lin Cunde with a smile and said.

Lin Cunde immediately waved his hand and said: "This is not that difficult. I am afraid of the cold. My father-in-law knows this. I am thin and in poor health. In the past, when winter came, my mother would light a charcoal fire in my study early, but it was not safe. ,

I just thought, if there was an iron stove, let firewood burn in it, and have a chimney to exhaust the smoke, wouldn't there be no carbon poisoning?I just don’t know if this will work. If the room is not warm when the stove is burning, there is nothing I can do. Therefore, I tried to make one. Unexpectedly, the effect was surprisingly good.

As for this tea table, this matter is even simpler. Before, my family was poor and had no servants. When someone came to my house, I wanted to make tea, but I didn’t know how to make tea. Besides, while chatting, I had to get up and go to the table next to me. Pour tea,

But now that I have this stove, there is always hot water, so why not get a table and just sit here and drink tea? Wouldn't it be nice? You don't have to get up to make tea. Look below, I didn't know how to drain the water at first. I thought For a long time, I thought about using bamboo instead and opening the bamboo joints to drain water! "

Yu Qian was stunned when he heard Lin Cunde's explanation. Is this okay?

Lin Cunde continued: "Yu Shangshu, in fact, these are all driven by my laziness. My mother has been relying on me since I was a child. Now that my mother is gone, I don't know anything myself, so I just think about what to do. Let yourself work less, so you can make these things and make Yu Shangshu laugh!"

"No, no, no, such behavior is a very smart sign. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been a scholar at the age of 16. It shows that you still have some talent!" Yu Qian also waved his hand.After hearing this, Lin Cunde quickly handed over his hands and thanked him.

Yu Qian looked at Lin Cunde and continued: "But all of these are heresies and strange techniques. They cannot be used as the main method. I hope you can concentrate on reading the books of sages!"

Lin Cunde nodded and said: "Yes, my uncle Shi also criticized me and forbade me to do this. It was also Shibo who lent me money to buy this mansion. The same is true for the servants in the family, hoping that I can Read the books of sages with all your heart!”

Yu Qian smiled and stroked his beard and said, "I can't believe that Wang Ying, a martial artist, can still understand such a truth!"

However, Yu Qian was still unwilling to do so. He didn't have so much time to spend with him while chatting like this, and he couldn't achieve his goal. But now that Zhu Ji was here, he wouldn't ask questions directly. Lin Cunde might not tell the truth, so he couldn't help but remain silent.

Zhu Ji also realized that he shouldn't come here, but Lin Cunde had already made an appointment to have lunch here, and it was difficult for him to take the opportunity to go out at the moment. Besides, his father-in-law and Lin Cunde were not familiar with each other. If he left, something unpleasant would happen. It seems inappropriate.

Zhu Ji thought of this and said: "Cunde, I haven't visited your mansion yet. I'm going to go out and see your second brother and show me around. Can you accompany my father-in-law and have a chat?"

Zhu Ji stood up as he spoke, and Lin Cunde was also very surprised. What did Zhu Ji mean?In other words, what does Yu Qian mean by not giving up and forcing himself to admit it?
"Here, Yu Shangshu, why don't you wait a moment while I change my clothes and lead you two to visit my mansion. I have to say that Wang Zhen spent a lot of money back then!" Lin Cunde didn't want to be alone with Yu Qian. What I said to Zhu Qiyu must not be told to Yu Qian. After all, there is another saying, if you don't keep it secret, you will lose your virginity.

After hearing this, Yu Qian waved his hands and said: "I have no interest in such extravagant things. Just ask him to find your second brother. The two of us will continue to chat. I heard Shang De say that eating and geography know a lot. Many, it would be nice to chat!”

"This!" Lin Cunde was helpless at the moment and knew that Zhu Ji was deliberately looking for an excuse to leave, and Yu Qian was also deliberately staying to continue testing himself.

Zhu Ji also apologized helplessly to Lin Cunde and gave an apologetic look.

Lin Cunde smiled helplessly.

After Zhu Ji went out, Yu Qian looked at Lin Cunde with a smile, then brought tea and drank a cup of tea.

Lin Cunde sat down and poured tea for Yu Qian.

"Your Majesty is doing a very good job now. I am very satisfied with your Majesty. Moreover, you have contributed a lot to assisting the Queen in controlling the harem. I have always thought about how to prevent the Queen Mother from using the power of the harem to interfere in politics, but my ability is limited.

In the court, there are many ministers who used to follow the Empress Dowager Sun, so I am helpless about this. But now, the Empress has ignored the Empress Dowager Sun. I am happy to see it, but many ministers are not happy to see it. ! "Yu Qian looked at Lin Cunde and said.

"Yu Shangshu, students don't understand what you are saying. Besides, how can I know about the things in the deep palace? Yu Shangshu, you don't have to test me. The person behind this is really not me!" Lin Cunde looked at it with a smile. Yu Qian said.

Yu Qian didn't care what Lin Cunde said, but continued to say calmly: "When you have time, please advise your Majesty to implement benevolent policies and win the hearts of the people. I have my own difficulties. If I want to do something, I can't do it without the support of the ministers. Therefore, I sometimes have no choice but to do so.

I agree in my heart that the Third Battalion of the Capital should be transferred to the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army. However, I must submit a memorial to oppose this matter. Otherwise, Your Majesty will be in crisis!Could you please explain something to me in front of His Majesty?

I won’t explain it. When I do things, I should look up to heaven, bow down to the earth, act in a way that others are worthy of, and do things in a way that is worthy of my heart!
Moreover, I don’t bother to explain. The reason why I asked you to explain is that I just hope that your majesty can trust me and let me do something below to ensure that the people of Ming Dynasty can live and work in peace and contentment.

I am ashamed. I have been an official for decades. Now, inside and outside the capital, and all over the Central Plains, there are countless hungry people and countless rebellions. Although I work hard, I cannot let the people live and work in peace and contentment. I am ashamed, I am ashamed! "

After Yu Qian finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh.

Lin Cunde lowered his head and gently turned the tea cup.
