I Become A Saint By Studying

"My son, see the father!"

Lin Yi entered the imperial study room, saluted his father, Emperor Lin Yunhong, and then stood quietly aside.

Sensible and polite, he looks like someone else's child.

"What? You were so fierce when you arrested people, why are you suddenly so gentle now?"

Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi with a bit of majesty.

"Father, my son has always been a gentleman, not fierce at all." Lin Yi justified himself.

He even glanced at Zhao Tai, and said: "Father doesn't believe me, you can ask Zhao Tai!"

"..."

Zhao Tai's body froze suddenly, so he could only nod his head and said: "Yes, yes, His Royal Highness is benevolent!"

But he was puzzled in his heart. What he reported to His Majesty was not this matter, but the Saint phantom in Yongfeng County.

"So you cleared up the court because of the words of Qin Chusheng, the master of Yongfeng County, and arrested Zhou Qin, the Minister of Rites, and several other related officials?" Lin Yunhong said calmly.

Lin Yi was taken aback for a moment, why did the royal father smell like gunpowder again? Could it be that Zhou Qin is also related to the royal family?

He took a deep breath and said, "My son is just doing what he thinks is right!"

"I originally thought you were going to attack someone, but I didn't expect it to be the Minister of Rites... Well done!"

Lin Yunhong's attitude turned 180 degrees, he looked at Lin Yi with a smile and said, "Make decisive moves, plan far-reaching plans, plan ahead, and increase the fortune of the country for Dayan. You are worthy of being my prince!"

"what?"

Lin Yi froze for a moment, looked at Lin Yunhong, suddenly a little dazed.

This attitude changed faster than flipping through a book. Just now I said that I was terribly fierce, like a tyrant, but in the blink of an eye, my fierceness has become a far-reaching plan, and I am planning for a rainy day...

"Regarding the matter of folk scholars, I summoned relevant officials from the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College, as well as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Deng Tai'a, the former Minister of Industry, to learn more about it..."

Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi, and said solemnly: "Fortunately, the crown prince met Master Qin early, and he was willing to listen to the voices of the people. The departments and bureaus directly under the imperial court are indeed controlled by the Xungui Group, and the situation is extremely bad!"

"However, there are too many such things. If you really want to hold them accountable... more than half of the officials in the court will have to be punished. It's not a small matter!"

Lin Yi was also mentally prepared, nodded and said: "So I didn't make a big move and detained all the officials involved in this case. There are some things that I have a sense of propriety."

This matter is indeed more complicated. If you really want to get serious, there may be turmoil in the court.

That's why he made the decision to arrest the Minister of Rites, Zhou Qin, and the others, to kill chickens and monkeys.

Let other people see that some things must be spit out, otherwise you will bear the consequences.

Lin Yunhong said with relief: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. His Royal Highness has matured a lot!"

Lin Yi smiled.

"I called you here this time, not because of the Minister of Rites, but because of a vision in the imperial city..."

Lin Yunhong looked at Lin Yi, and said with a half-smile: "Is this matter related to you?"

Lin Yi froze for a moment, shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with Erchen!"

"Ah?" Zhao Tai was stunned.

"..."

Lin Yunhong was also taken aback for a moment, and the expression on his face suddenly became weird, "It really has nothing to do with the prince?"

This is simply not possible.

Others may not be able to see that vision, but it is impossible for him not to see that vision contains awe-inspiring righteousness.

Today, the whole world is full of righteousness, besides the prince and him, who else is there?

"It's an article written by grandson Ce. About the life of Qin Chusheng's wife, I just wrote a few words..."

Lin Yi briefly explained the matter.

Including when he went to Dayan Weekly, he also wanted them to publish the matter of Zhou Qin, Minister of Rites, and Mr. Zhou. At that time, after Long Wei has sorted out everything, he will send a report on this matter to deter other honorable families.

Lin Yunhong's eyes lit up, "Is it eight characters?"

"How does the royal father know?"

Lin Yi looked at Lin Yunhong in surprise, there was no sample draft of Dayan Weekly Newsletter, how did Emperor Father know?

Lin Yunhong smiled, looked at Lin Yi and said, "If it's correct, those eight characters should be 'Master Burning the Lamp, the National Warrior'."

"???"

Lin Yi was stunned. What Changsun Ce wrote was not Mingfu poetry, and the eight characters he added were not talented.

How did the royal father know?

If the father had known the situation from Zheng Yu and Changsun Ce, he would not have asked him to come over and ask about the vision.

"Yes..." Lin Yi didn't understand the specific situation, but admitted it anyway.

"well!"

Lin Yunhong was more excited than ever when he got Lin Yi's acknowledgment, and his laughter echoed in the royal study.

for a long time.

He just waved his hand and said: "You go back first, I want to be happy alone first!"

The corners of Zhao Tai's mouth twitched slightly, cupped fist bowed and said: "I'll take my leave!"

Lin Yi bowed, "Your servant will leave."

He left the imperial study room full of doubts, and then whispered to Zhao Tai, "Go to the East Palace!"

"Yes!"

Knowing that His Highness the Crown Prince would definitely call him, Zhao Tai followed Lin Yi to the Mingde Hall of the East Palace.

In the royal study.

"interesting!"

Lin Yunhong pinched his chin and said: "Wen Dao edict, this is the real Saint's words, this is a kind of edict that Saint borrowed the rules of Wen Dao to scholars..."

"Although I don't know how the prince did it, Zhao Tai reported that there was a phantom of Saint in the sky above Yongfeng County, and that Qin Chusheng was given the status of Wen Dao, which shows that this is indeed related to the eight characters of the prince!"

"Master Burning Lamp, the national scholar is unparalleled..."

Lin Yunhong was thoughtful, and he shouted outside the door: "Mei Zheren, go to the Dayan Weekly Office, I want a weekly report about Qin Chusheng!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Mei Zheren retreated respectfully.

...

East Palace Mingde Hall.

After Lin Yi took his seat, he gave Zhao Tai a seat, and the maid made tea beside him.

Lin Yi looked at Zhao Tai and asked, "How is the matter with Zhou Qin, Minister of Rites?"

"Zhou Qin confessed to many court officials, and they all have interests in each other. At the same time, they hold some key positions in the bureaus of Dayan's various prefectures, and completely block the bachelors who have no background and no bribes from the people!"

"At the same time, these positions also breed a lot of corruption, levying miscellaneous taxes, bullying the people, living on empty pay all year round, and not seeing noble children going to work all year round..."

After Zhao Tai said these words, he took a deep look at Lin Yi and said, "In short, it's a big problem, and it has reached the point where it has to be changed!"

Lin Yi clenched his fists tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Continue to investigate thoroughly, and don't move those in the capital for the time being. We will deal with the wealthy families and nobles in other prefectures together."

"The house was confiscated, 30% was turned over to the state treasury, and 70% of the money was left in the local area to build water conservancy, build bridges and pave roads!"

"I won't go to court during this time, so if you have something to say, you can speak for me!"

Those people will spit out what they swallow from the people, take it from the people, use it for the people, and let them be punished as they should.

"Uh... good!"

Zhao Tai was slightly taken aback, but still nodded.

The front foot promised His Majesty not to act recklessly, and he had his own measure, and then he waved the big stick with the back foot, Your Royal Highness, you are so fierce!

"By the way, how did the father know the eight characters I wrote? You were not at the weekly newspaper office that day..."

Lin Yi only asked about Zhao Tai at this time.
