The splendor of the red mansion

Chapter 94 Returning to Ningri Anbu Lord (1)
Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, both Daiyu and Yinzhen had to enter the palace to attend the evening family banquet in the afternoon.Moreover, the day when the Qing prince Fujin returned to Ning also stipulated that he must return before noon.Lin Ruhai didn't want to waste time talking nonsense, as he was leaving for Xi'an Mansion in three days.After the family had eaten, Lin Ruhai invited Yinzhen to the study alone.Yinzhen sat quietly and looked at Lin Ruhai sitting behind the desk with a solemn expression, "Father-in-law, but do you have something to tell Yinzhen?" Lin Ruhai raised his head and looked at the outstanding young man in front of him. In a place like the royal family, he will definitely not have any worries.But now, the situation in the court is uncertain, and they, as princes, are the least likely to stay out of it.And his daughter is also destined to be born in the game.

"Seeing you like this now, Empress Xiaoyi's knowledge is enough to comfort me." Lin Ruhai said softly.

Yinzhen remained silent, supporting himself in the palace all these years, which made him have a deeper understanding of the kindness that the queen's mother treated him.It was also because of the many forces arranged by the Queen Mother during her lifetime that he was able to grow up safely in the deep palace when he was still young.It also made it easier for me to live without the support of my mother's family after leaving the palace.Although the fate is not long, the Queen's Mother will always be his dear Mother.

Lin Ruhai casually knocked on the table and said, "How does the fourth elder brother feel about the emperor's sudden promotion of me as governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu?"

Yinzhen's expression was slightly cold, and he said indifferently: "Of course, Huang Ama is planning for His Highness the Crown Prince, but it is because Yinzhen made his father-in-law work hard." Lin Ruhai waved his hand and said, "It's not enough to work hard. Originally, I also promised the emperor to serve as Sichuan. Governor, now it is just governing two more provinces. It’s just...you and Yu’er will be in the capital in the future..." The corners of Yinzhen’s lips curled up slightly, and he said calmly: "Since Huang Ama cares about the prince so much, I am a son Naturally, I will do my best to help His Highness the Crown Prince." Lin Ruhai nodded in satisfaction, then slowly frowned and said, "The Tong Jia family cannot have anything to do with the Crown Prince." There are many officials, known as Tong Banchao.If the Tong Jia family, the Hesheli family and the Guar Jia family support the prince at the same time, I am afraid that Kangxi will have to abolish the prince if he does not want to.

Yinzhen said: "Father-in-law, don't worry. Tong Guowei has his own problems in his heart, so he should not get involved in the prince's affairs." In these years, in order to avoid suspicion, Yinzhen has never been close to the Tong family. No one in the imperial concubine has ever expressed closeness to Yin Zhen.Tong Guowei is a smart man, as well as an ambitious man. Following the prince is definitely not the best choice for the Tong family. If it fails, it will be taboo by Kangxi. The Tong family may fall into the cliff and cannot turn over.It's over, the head of the house will always be the Hesheli family, and the Tong family will still be overwhelmed by the Hesheli family.Lin Ruhai nodded in agreement and said: "The relationship between you and the Tong family is very good now." Neither close nor close, can advance or retreat.If the prince becomes a great treasure in the future, Yinzhen will not be afraid of the prince because of the Tong Jia family. If the prince loses, the Tong family will never make things difficult for Yinzhen in the face of Empress Xiaoyi.Thinking a little deeper, if Yinzhen has that thought, the Tong family will definitely help secretly.After all, what could make the Tong Jia family more prestigious than having two sons under the names of Tong Jia's daughters become emperors?
Lin Ruhai nodded and said, "Si elder brother, I feel relieved. I will not be able to provide you with any help in the northwest in the future. I just want to send you a word here."

Yinzhen listened carefully and said, "Father-in-law, please tell me."

Lin Ruhai said: "Serve the king with loyalty, serve the father with filial piety, brothers and friends respectful, keep a low profile. No matter how the situation in the court changes, after all, only the emperor is the emperor." Whether it is the east overpowering the west wind, or the west wind overpowering the east.It's nothing more than a tiny thought of that superior person.

Yinzhen got up and said solemnly: "Thank you father-in-law for your teaching, Yinzhen has memorized it." Actually, everyone knows and can say these few short sentences, but how many people can really get the essence of it?Lin Ruhai's words undoubtedly reminded Yinzhen how to conduct himself in this almost foreseeable future turmoil.Lin Ruhai shook his head and signaled him to sit down, and said: "You can make up your own mind about the court affairs. Now I want to tell you another matter. Do you know why my Xilinjueluo family has won the Qing Dynasty for generations? Royal favor?"

Yinzhen hesitated for a moment, stared at Lin Ruhai and said, "As far as my son-in-law knows, the Xilin Jueluo family has always held a mysterious power in the Qing imperial family."

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Empress Xiaoyi really told you about this." Yinzhen shook his head and said, "Emperor Niang didn't mention it in detail, but she said a few words to Yinzhen secretly when she was seriously ill." Lin Ruhai She nodded and said: "I believe this, because Empress Xiaoyi herself is not very clear about this. Do you know who is in charge of this generation of Xilin Jueluo's family?" Yinzhen said: "The only family in Xilin Jueluo's family is his father-in-law. One, this generation is naturally father-in-law." Lin Ruhai shook his head with a smile and said: "That was in the past, from now on... Xilin Jueluo's family is under the control of Yu'er." Yinzhen raised his eyes suddenly, and looked at Lin Ruhai's eyes full of dissatisfaction. Agreed, frowned and said: "Placing such a heavy burden on Yu'er's shoulders..." Lin Ruhai said: "She is my Lin Ruhai's daughter, Si elder brother thinks she can't bear this burden?" Yinzhen said: "My son-in-law is just I don't want her to work too hard." Lin Ruhai said: "Although Yu'er was raised by our husband and wife, she is definitely not those weak and incompetent boudoir daughters. I know you want to protect her behind you, but And how do you know she doesn't want to stand side by side with you?"

Yinzhen lowered his eyes in thought, and asked after a long while: "The Lin family controls the Anbu of the royal family, how could Huang Ama agree to marry Yu'er to me?" That day he went to ask Kangxi for a marriage. It wasn't really angry, and it didn't say no.Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "I, Xilinjueluo, have been loyal to the royal family for generations, so it's not difficult to ask for a favor, right? The person chosen by the emperor... may not be able to protect Yu'er."

It turned out that Lin Ruhai personally asked for their marriage, Yinzhen was moved, and said respectfully: "Yinzhen thank you, father-in-law, for making it happen."

Lin Ruhai waved his hands and said, "It's not perfect. Maybe marrying Yu'er will do you a lot of harm and no benefit."

Yinzhen said: "Yinzhen did not marry Yu'er for profit. Naturally, he would not use the power in Yu'er's hands to do anything." I'm afraid that once he wants to covet the power of Anbu, he will die faster than anyone else.People who say that there is no Huang Ama in the Anbu can't convince him that Huang Ama wants to pass the throne to the prince now.Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "Although you will be stared at by the emperor if you marry Yu'er, but the same... As long as you don't go too far, the emperor will protect you most of the time. As for what will happen in the future... who knows?"
