Accumulate Wealth in Life

Shuzi High Gate (25)

When people are in the officialdom, how can it be bright and snowy?

When you were young, did you ever have an affair with a brothel woman? When you were serving in various places, did you practice favoritism, corrupt the law, or give or take bribes? When judging the people and deciding cases, are there any unjust, false, and wrongly convicted cases?

When Jin Shouli thought about it like this, he felt that as long as he checked him seriously, it was impossible to find out at all. He raised the jug and poured a glass for the fourth master, "You said, no one has impeached Prime Minister Chu in all these years?"

The fourth master understood why Jin Shouli asked this. Obviously, if there was an easy-to-find handle, it would have been caught long ago. Check it out now, is it too late? Being able to think this way proves that Jin Shouli's mind is still alive. He laughed and said: "When you are an official, how can there be no impeachment? If there is really no official impeachment, the emperor should be suspicious. Prime Minister Chu is smart, and there are always a few people who impeach him from time to time? But the content of the impeachment is irrelevant. Anything that is not repaired in the interior, what a troublemaker is riding a horse and hurting people, and what a disgrace to the royal front. It's all **** things. Besides, the emperor can be trusted and need him, too. I don't dare to bump into someone without a wink. It's good to find evidence, but if you can't find evidence, you may put yourself in. Therefore, you can't take a risk. However, I've said it again. No thousand days are good. Feng shui has always been rotated. Everyone knows the situation of the emperor... This dynasty has one courtier and one emperor. The person on the dragon chair wants to protect the prime minister of Chu, then no matter how true your evidence is, no one will ask any further questions. . But if the people above want to ask him to make a seat, even if your evidence can't be verified, no one will ask you. Third brother, think about it, is this the truth. "

Jin Shouli smiled when he looked at the fourth master: "Fourth, how come I didn't find you so bad before."

"Drink! Drink!" Fourth Master handed the glass over, "You joke after drinking, forget what you say. Don't take it seriously! Don't take it seriously!"

The brothers touched each other lightly, and everything was silent.

In the evening, the fourth master took a shower, and Lin Yutong could still smell the alcohol on his body. He kissed him on the mouth and hooked the wine bug, "I want to have a drink too."

"Let's do it in two days." Fourth Master said, and kissed back again, "Let's kiss a few more times to relieve cravings."

Lin Yutong really pressed him down and kissed him a few more times.

After a long time of trouble, the fourth master panted to help her up, and discussed with her, "It's not possible to live out after this, but what do you think about this part of the industry?"

"The second room is half of the points." Lin Yutong counted with the fourth master, "Only half of the big room is left. And this half is divided into several points. The grandfather and his wife will count as one share, and Jin Shouren will count as one share. Qi Duo'er also has to take a share. Then there's us. This has to be based on the same share of direct descendants. If you calculate it like this, in fact, we have the least share. In addition, this manor It is estimated that there will not be much savings. If you really support private soldiers, will the family still save money? Look at it, what are you giving us, what we want." Then, remembering that the fourth master is not a person who cares about money, he looks up to him. Looking at Fourth Master, "Why do you remember this and ask this?"

"I remember that this mansion has a horse farm in Liaodong." The fourth master whispered, "If there are private soldiers, they must have made their fortune from this horse farm in the first place. From here, you should be able to find clues."

"Want to test one or two?" Lin Yutong turned over and asked.

Fourth Master chuckled, then shook his head and said, "It still won't work. If it's really a test, it can't be like this. It's too rough! I have to think about it."

And Jin Shouli, who left from the fourth master, went directly to the outer study after returning, and went to discuss with Jin Chengquan.

"Father!" Jin Shouli took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "The fourth child is really a bit cloudy, I didn't think of it. He wanted to borrow our hand, right? The Chu family didn't fall, not only did he gasp. If you don’t get angry, it’s hard to say whether your life can be saved or not.”

Jin Chengquan glanced at his silly son. Although this child also has a heart, he is still a little worse than the fourth child. He didn't take this nephew too seriously before, but this time he realized how powerful this kid is. The following people clearly stated that they had sent the daughter of the Lin family to the Shiziyuan, but only the next day they found out that it was a girl who was sent there. That girl also asked the Chu family to pour someone a bowl of dumb medicine. I don't know where it went? It was clearly said that the girl from the Qi family was put on the fourth child's bed, and even the medicine was used, but it was obviously Lin's who was in the room with the fourth child. After a circle, everyone had an accident, but nothing changed at the fourth child's place. The daughter-in-law is the same daughter-in-law. If I didn't know that I was going to do it, I couldn't explain it.

Now they have said such specious things to their son again, knowing that he is using a knife to kill, but they really can't help this temptation.

"Do you think that the fourth child thinks highly of us? There are some things that we can't find out." After Jin Shouli came back, his mind calmed down a little, and then he felt that the fourth child's idea was good, but he knew people a little bit. unclear. As far as their father and son are concerned, it is really impossible to find out. He still has this self-awareness.

Jin Chengquan shook his head: "You... No one really understands. He didn't ask us to investigate! He wanted to borrow your uncle's hand."

"My uncle?" Jin Shouli was a little puzzled, "My uncle was implicated by my grandfather... He has been out of office for many years."

Jin Chengquan pondered for a while: "Ask your uncle in a few days."

"How did my grandfather get involved back then?" Jin Shouli asked in a low voice.

Jin Chengquan clicked his tongue: "It's been more than ten years..." He said, as if he remembered something, "This matter, really speaking, really has something to do with the fourth. The Lin's daughter that the fourth married, she My grandfather, who was your grandfather's Shangguan back then..."

"My grandfather?" Lin Yutong was stunned, "You mean the Gan family?"

The fourth master nodded: "It is the Gan family who was beheaded by the whole family. I am afraid that the Gan family is inseparable from Chu Yuan. The two have a lot of intersections in their careers. Chu Yuan is the magistrate of Xuzhou, and Gan Haichao is the censor. I happened to inspect Xuzhou. Chu Yuan was appointed as the prefect of Yizhou, and Gan Haichao was the academic government of Yizhou. Chu Yuan was appointed as the prefect of Haicheng, and Gan Haichao was in the weaving government at the time. These two people can be said to be the longest serving people in the same place at the same time. You say these two people, one was beheaded by the whole family before the emperor took the throne, and the other was soaring, and successively served as the minister of officials, minister of officials, until the prime minister. Is there such a coincidence?"

This is true!

This Gan Haichao may not necessarily be a good official, but this Chu Yuan must not be clean.

Lin Yutong snorted and said, "Actually, I never thought to find out who was right and wrong back then. But if it's really Gan Haichao... If my cheap grandfather really died because of Chu Yuan, it means that Gan Haichao was the master There must be something special in it. Otherwise, the other party would not have killed the whole family."

"That's it." The fourth master stretched out his hand and picked up the scissors, cut the twist on the oil lamp, and said: "Second Madam Gao's father was a subordinate of Gan Haichao back then. He was also implicated and dismissed because of Gan Haichao. Even the two sons have not been able to enter the office. Although the second son of the Gao family was in high school, he is now hopeless and has opened an academy outside the city... If it is not called the Gao family, there is no Chu Yuan's writing in it. ? I think, the Gao family is not so bad. They have all passed the entrance examination. Is it possible that they can only mix in the Hanlin Academy and can't keep going? It can be seen that the relationship between the old man of the Gao family and Gan Haichao may not be the same. Not your ordinary subordinates. Friendship is not bad."

Lin Yutong understood what the fourth master meant. This provocation of Jin Shouli was actually to alarm the Gao family. The two generations of the Gao family were suppressed, and a young handsome man was stunned to have his wings broken. Even if the resentment was not so deep back then, the resentment has only accumulated to a certain extent now. If you tell them, the chance to turn over may be right in front of you. The last change of imperial power cost the Gan family's life. Then another change of imperial power is imminent, could it not kill the Chu family.

The Gao family will be tempted!

The old man of the Gao family is also an old man from the Censor Desk. Qin Hui still has a few good friends, not to mention the old man Gao. Besides, like the Gao family, there were definitely more than one family that was implicated because of the Gan family. These people have passed by for so many years, but if they gather together, they will be a force to be reckoned with.

To overturn the case for the Gan family is to overturn the case for them.

Lin Yutong got up and rubbed the fourth master's temple. It seems that he has not been idle during this period of time. If he can dig out the relationship between these big and small officials and famous families in the capital so clearly, he knows how much energy he has spent. "What can I do?"

The fourth master laughed: "These things can't be found out in a day or two. Besides, everything has to be done at the right time and place. How should we live our lives? No one can do anything from day to night. There is none, only conspiracy and intrigue. People live to live their lives. They use their brains and work hard to live a better life. The priority cannot be reversed."

Lin Yutong's understanding is that soldiers come to block water and earth to cover. Live a peaceful life, everything else is a cloud.

In less than two days, the first step of a stable life - distribution of production, finally came.

Kim Sung-an is very formal this time. Even Prince Zongzheng Laoyu also invited to witness. In addition, there are the Prince of Chengjun and the Marquis of Jing'an. Chu Yuan, the prime minister of Chu, naturally came as well. This is not only Madam Chu's maiden family, but also the maiden family of Mrs. Shizi. No one came from the second lady's natal Gao family, but Lin Fanghua came in person, and Lin Changgen also arrived early. There was only a twenty-seven-year-old man at the top of the second master, whom Lin Yutong had never seen before. I just feel that the way this person looks at people makes people feel uncomfortable.

The fourth master turned to his side, blocked Lin Yutong, and said in a low voice, "This person is Hu Qi, the grand-nephew of the old lady."

It is right to call the old lady's maiden family to come. It should be that the elder of the Hu family is gone. This person is small, but the door is big. Seeing that his eyes kept lingering on Qi Duo'er, Lin Yutong also glanced at himself and the little Chu family from time to time, and asked in a low voice, "This is that Uncle Hu?"

The fourth master said "um", and when he saw his eyes glance over again, he was a little angry.

Lin Yutong whispered behind the fourth master: "Don't worry, I have a way to pick him up."

Jin Chengan, who was sitting at the top, coughed lightly and turned to look at Prince Yu, "If there is anything inappropriate, please speak bluntly."

Prince Yu stroked his beard and nodded: "As long as your brothers have no opinion, we will be a witness."

Jin Chengan took out two boxes: "This is to divide the property of the family into two equal shares. Our brothers share one share. The house in this mansion cannot be divided, but if the old lady is in one day, the house cannot be torn down. This mansion has a total of five rows and five yards. We live with the old lady along the way in the middle. In the far west, there is a second bedroom. There are three roads left, and my three sons occupy one road. . Expenses will no longer go to the public account. Even the servants will be divided. Except for the back garden, which is public, the rest is private property. "

Lin Yutong nodded, this is fair. Each of these houses is separated by a passage, and there are doors on both sides. Each of them locks the door, and this is the two families. Relatively speaking, it is relatively independent.

"Let's choose the farthest east." She whispered to the fourth master.

Jin Chengan didn't even look at the contents in the box, he just pointed at one, "Just this one."

This was all negotiated by the eyes of the two, and now it's a cutscene, telling everyone to take a look at this brother and brother.

Jin Chengan added: "The old lady's things will still be divided according to this method after the old lady is a hundred years old, and we will talk about it later."

Jin Chengquan nodded, approving Jin Chengan's arrangement.

Seeing that there was no dispute, Prince Yu wrote a deed, and took this to the yamen to register and transfer the name, and that's it.

The second room only has one son, Jin Shouli, and there is no need to divide it again. Half of the family property of the government has actually fallen into his hands.

Mrs. Chu's face was a little unsightly, her son was the eldest son, and it turned out that the third child of the second room took the lead. She has worked hard for so many years, and for whom is she working hard?

Jin Chengan opened the box left on the table and pushed it in front of several invited witnesses: "Please everyone, divide these things into four parts. We two will count one share, and each of the three sons will count one share. A hundred years later, the three sons will be divided equally. There is only one daughter-in-law guarding the second family, so I can't treat her badly."

"no!"

"no!"

Madam Chu and Lin Fanghua said in unison.

Lin Changgen's face darkened immediately, and he didn't need to ask, he was against giving his son-in-law the same treatment as his own son-in-law.

Lin Yutong pulled Lalin Changgen's sleeve behind him and motioned him not to speak. Why is it really not a crime to fight.

It was the first time that Lin Changgen felt so close to his daughter, but if he didn't speak, wouldn't it be easy to bully him as his own?

Mrs. Chu glanced at Lin Fanghua. She was angry with Lin Yutong, but she couldn't see Qi Duoer either. He pursed his lips and said, "According to the concubines, the concubines should share 70% of the family's property, and the concubines should account for 30%. Let's not talk about 73%, at least the concubines should have twice the property of the concubines. This is a rule that everyone follows. So, I mean, this property should be divided into seven shares. We are the elders for two, the boss for two, the second for two, and the fourth for one. The second is only a young daughter-in-law, It's a widow's family again, and she doesn't know anything about the outside world, so the elders will take care of these things first. When the second room adopts the children in the future, this property will be returned together with the profits of these years. "

Lin Fanghua's face turned dark all of a sudden, what does this mean? It is said that it is divided into 20%, but in the end it is not in the hands. I said just now that I want to live separately, but I don't even give me a reward, and the palace has stopped the monthly payment. Can't you ask your daughter to live on a dowry?

As if she knew what Lin Fanghua was going to say, Mrs. Chu added: "Every year, five hundred taels of silver are allocated to the second room. For a widow's family, there are no expenses, five hundred taels is more than enough..."

"Shit!" Lin Fanghua was directly provoked by the sound of "widow's family"...
