◎ Be careful! Idleness is dangerous. ◎
On the 28th day of the second lunar month, Master Kang finally ended his southern tour, left Jinling City, and prepared to go north to Beijing.
Because Master Kang had issued an imperial decree when he was in Suzhou, promoting Lantai Temple Doctor Lin Ruhai to the position of Salt Patrol Officer, and because Lin Ruhai had recently accomplished several major things, Master Kang was very pleased and gave him a mansion next to the Salt Patrol Officer's Mansion in Yangzhou City, so that he could bring his family to accompany him north and take over the post in Yangzhou City.
Yes, not only could Lin Ruhai accompany him to take up the post, but even his family could accompany him.
This treatment is a great honor no matter what era it is in.
It is like your boss not only promoted you to be the general manager of a large area, but also gave you a high-end dormitory that is only five minutes walk to work, and personally arranged a car to move you and take you to work...
It was really touching.
Lin Ruhai was of course very moved, and became more loyal to Master Kang - but in fact, before that, he had already expressed his loyalty to Master Kang countless times.
It was not the kind of empty talk or writing, but the kind of sincere work, putting life and death aside. Because of the excessive sincerity, even half of the family almost "died" for this job.
Yes, the ones who almost "died" were the unlucky Mo Yu and his cheap mother Jia Min.
Thinking of his poor physical condition when he first came here, and the two suspicious concubines who were said to be the masterminds from the capital, Mo Yu felt a little scared.
But when he thought about it again, the whole Lin family would die in the end anyway, so he quickly became indifferent. They were all going to die anyway, and it didn't seem to make any difference whether they died early or late.
After all, no one would have thought that in this seemingly romantic fictional love story world, there would actually be traces of power struggles - it was a bit unexpected.
At least that's how Mo Yu felt.
And he didn't hesitate to complain silently in his heart.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with this operation. He was just a weak, pitiful, helpless three-and-a-half-year-old baby. He still complained in his heart, but it didn't bother anyone.
Unfortunately, thanks to the factory bug of System 006, his inner voice was heard clearly by everyone, which was...
System 006 said that since the host himself still didn't know, it didn't have any impact.
Besides, this matter is not all bad without good.
To put it simply, this bug is not a defect, but rather a plug-in.
Apart from anything else, at least there is one benefit that is very obvious.
That is, Master Kang now knows the situation of the Lin family and has decided to intervene. He didn't know what Lin Ruhai had done to be loyal to him before, so although Lin Ruhai was promoted very quickly at that time, Master Kang didn't care about him as much as he does now.
The reason for this is that in addition to the fact that there were many talented and loyal ministers like Lin Ruhai in the Kangxi Dynasty, it was also because Lin Ruhai knew the way of being a minister, that is, the job must be done well, but the hardship and suffering don't have to be reported.
If he complained to Master Kang about all the difficulties and pains, Master Kang might be moved at first and would give him some trust and favor. But if you do this again and again, the emotion will turn into numbness, the guilt will turn into disgust, and finally the Sacred Heart will be completely lost.
If those people now only dare to do some small things behind the scenes, such as using chronic poisons to make the Lin family more likely to die of "illness", then if Lin Ruhai really loses the Sacred Heart, they will definitely kill the Lin family unscrupulously, and the Lin family will soon be able to end the entire family with death.
That would be terrible.
Lin Ruhai didn't dare to take this risk, so even if he felt something was wrong, he didn't say anything.
Of course, it was also because he didn't expect those people to be so vicious, so he immediately started poisoning and wanted the Lin family to exterminate their descendants.
By the time he found out, it was already too late.
My son is almost gone.
He originally thought that the situation was hopeless, but he never expected that his son Moyu would awaken this special ability after a serious illness, and he never expected that this ability would work so well. In short, after experiencing all kinds of panic and chaos, and almost thinking that the whole family would be killed on the spot, the Lin family finally ushered in unprecedented glory without any danger.
This is all thanks to Moyu.
So, Moger is really the lucky star of their Lin family.
Lin Ruhai was very satisfied with this result.
But unfortunately, after being promoted to the patrol salt and defense historian, he had more tasks and was busier. The worst thing was that he had to live apart from their Moger. It was really... Compared with all other problems, this was the only thing he could not bear.
Although he was very reluctant to part with it, as the saying goes, "The emperor's order is difficult to deal with." Since it was the order personally issued by Long Live Lord, he had no choice but to obey it.
Fortunately, there is still this journey to accompany you, so just go with it and cherish it.
Moreover, Long Live Master also said that he can come to Beijing to visit his relatives when he has time.
OK.
He understands the good intentions of Long Live Lord. There is really no way to retaliate for anything but the liver and the brain.
Lin Ruhai, who is as smart as Lin Ruhai, can certainly see that this is Master Kang's protection and care for him and the entire Lin family - whether it is giving him a promotion, a house, or asking for a chauffeur, this series of such high-profile actions is obviously for those who want to attack the Lin family in the dark.
The old man wanted to write on his forehead: The Lin family is the one I want to protect personally. If anyone dares to touch them, I will make you pay!
It must be said that Master Kang still knows how to intimidate.
He can intimidate.
Anyway, after his operation, the Lin family will be much better off in the future.
Not to mention the rewarded treasures and other things, just the sense of security is so full that it is about to overflow.
Lin Ruhai was moved and worked harder every day to investigate the case. Jia Min also took little Daiyu to visit the concubines and female relatives who accompanied them from time to time. It was obvious that she wanted the little Daiyu, who was only five or six years old, to become familiar with the social circle of aristocratic women.
The whole family is working hard in their respective fields, except Mo Yu, who is not interested in it.
He always looked lazy. Apart from the necessary social activities, he would just lie in the corner of the boat like a salted fish to take a nap, or lie on the couch to look at the scenery outside the window.
After a few days, he began to feel that the days of accompanying the driver were not bad.
There was only one thing, Master Kang was really too energetic.
During this southern tour, he not only traveled around the mountains and rivers, burned incense and worshipped Buddha, but also handled several major events, including but not limited to solving the Jiangnan official silver case and the kidnapping case, inspecting water conservancy projects, reviewing the garrison troops, and comforting the victims of the disaster.
It can be said that any one incident can instantly kill the "achievements" of his grandson, the Fourth Prince, during his southern tour - if this grandson has any...
Of course, these things were not done by him alone. The key was that he relied on his "insight" and boldly recruited many real talents.
Take solving a case for example. The Fourth Prince, who has always been known for his iron fist and ruthlessness, would definitely not return empty-handed. What's more, with the assistance of the famous and capable official Lin Ruhai, it was even more incredible.
In short, these cases were solved along the way, and before Master Kang left Yangzhou, most of the cases had been solved. The most amazing thing is that several major cases were solved in just a few days, which can be called extremely fast.
In fact, Mo Yu also contributed to this, but whether it is the Fourth Prince or Lin Ruhai, they will certainly not be stingy with their praise and "use" of Mo Yu.
Can Mo Ge'er see through the secrets and give very good guidance on the case?
Who can resist this? Wouldn't he ask more questions when he gets the chance?
It's rare that he is not impatient and tells everything he knows - even if he doesn't say it, he will think in his heart, anyway, remember to find Mo Ge'er more often to solve the case.
The final result is of course that the case was solved quickly and well, but Mo Yu was annoyed and didn't know what to do...
Master Kang is very satisfied with the efficiency of the Fourth Prince and Lin Ruhai, but he is very angry about the results of these cases - let's not talk about the two cases in depth, and it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes is indeed the Zhen family.
His wet nurse was really too careless.
Anyway, the little kid from the Lin family was right. After all, she was not his biological mother, not even his adoptive mother. She was just a servant. It was simply not worth it to show such true feelings to her.
Master Kang silently comforted himself and tried to hypnotize himself that this was not true family affection. His ability of self-hypnosis was originally very good. He was also very relieved to see that the Thirteenth Prince was young, smart, filial and respectful, and the Fourth Prince was steady and down-to-earth, indifferent to justice.
But thinking about the prince again, he became angry again.
He basically did everything he wanted to do on this southern tour, and basically solved all the problems he wanted to solve. There were just two things that could not be solved for the time being.
One was the water conservancy issue.
Since he ascended the throne, the Yellow River has burst its banks for no reason. The river works have been repaired every year, but the floods still occur every year. Is it really impossible to solve the problem?
He doesn't believe it.
He is the Son of Heaven, and he wants to compete with the Heaven.
This is also an important reason why he has repeatedly visited the south - to inspect the river works. Only by doing a good job of the river works can the problem of the Yellow River be truly solved, and his people can truly live a peaceful and happy life.
Unfortunately, after so many years of hard work, there is still little effect, and I don't know if there is any good way.
Then there is the prince.
He and the prince have had conflicts for a long time, but after all, he has raised him personally for so many years. If he really breaks up, he really can't bear it.
Unfortunately, he understands more and more that compared with his favorite princes, the prince is mediocre in qualifications and has a bad temper. He is really not suitable to be an emperor.
He has not decided who is suitable for the position.
These two problems troubled Master Kang, making his return journey even more difficult.
Whenever he thought of these, Master Kang looked annoyed, and habitually asked someone to summon the young master of the Lin family to accompany him for dinner.
