All Hail Cousin Brother

Lin Ruoru took a deep breath. From the very beginning, County Lord Shaoyi was not something she could handle.

This is a high-end chess game for Yu Youyao, and what she plays is not only an exchange of chess skills, but also a psychological strategy. Compared with it, she is a rookie.

but!

You want to ask the little rookie how it feels to be forced into a high-end game? !

Just ask!

This is a great opportunity for Lin Ruoru. As long as she cooperates with Yu Youyao, at least half of the Lin family's business will be in her hands in the future. This is a conservative estimate.

If the cooperation can be further deepened, the Lin family will be in her pocket in the future.

And behind her, with the backing of this noble girl from a family and a noble status, her status in the Lin family will also rise.

After thinking this through, Lin Ruoru was full of energy: "Miss Yu, don't worry, I am very interested in the cooperation you proposed, and I will definitely do my best to promote this cooperation."

As soon as the words fell, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head.

Lin Ruoru immediately calmed down. I'm afraid all of this was also in Yu Youyao's calculations. Yu Youyao knew that with her current status in the Lin family, she would definitely not be able to be the master of such a big business, but she didn't directly find the head of the Lin family. I made a circle and found her head.

The main thing is that she can be used as a bridge to communicate the cooperation between Lin and Yan, and support her in the position, so that the two parties can cooperate better, and the subsequent cooperation will be smoother.

Yu Youyao took a fancy to the Lin family and the Yan family behind her, and if she wanted to control the Lin family and the Yan family, she had to first create opportunities for her to rise to the top.

She also needs the opportunity to cooperate with Yu Youyao to consolidate her position in the Lin family, and she also needs the strong backing of County Lord Shaoyi.

Yu Youyao is right, she will not refuse.

Even in order to reach a cooperation with Yu Youyao, he did not hesitate to use the Yan Mansion as a bargaining chip.

It was only then that Lin Ruoru truly realized how deep the city was for this smiling girl in front of her. During the entire conversation, she was completely enslaved by the other party's promises. She drew a big cake and led her by the nose. , From the beginning to the end, she was in the game, bit by bit, she got stuck in the mud.

"It's a very wise decision," Yu Youyao held up the wine glass: "This glass of wine is to Miss Lin, and I wish us a happy cooperation."

She threw her head back and gulped it down.

Lin Ruoru put her hand on the wine glass, hesitated for a while, then gritted her teeth,

Picking up the wine glass, he made a toast to Yu Youyao: "Happy cooperation."

She knew that the cooperation Yu Youyao spoke of was not aimed at the Lin Yan family.

It was her and Yu Youyao.

Yu Youyao supported her to take the position, and as a bridge for the communication between the Lin Yan family, she brought enough benefits to Yu Youyao.

The two sides tacitly agreed and formed a fairly stable and mutually beneficial alliance. Yu Youyao's goal of meeting Lin Ruoru was perfectly achieved.

And right now, she is expanding the fragrance medicine business in Zhiyulou. Some of the rouge powder and cosmetics are sold in Zhiyulou, and the other fragrance medicines with special effects, such as Pihanxiang, Yangyuanwan, and some Medicinal oils for relaxing tendons and collaterals are all shipped directly to the northern border as military supplies.

The top ten authentic medicinal materials are mutually available, except for the imperial court, as long as the Wumu Palace can eat them.

Later, in the name of disaster relief, a large amount of medicinal materials were purchased. Some of the medicines for cold and epidemic diseases were indeed used for the victims, while the other part was purchased for the Youjun.

Of course, the brothers will settle accounts clearly.

These materials are not given away for nothing, even King Wu Mu Ding Bei.

After the business was over, the two began to chat.

Although the two have just met each other not long ago, their vision and knowledge are not weak, and they chatted a lot in different places, but the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

Lin Ruoru changed the subject, and suddenly brought up the imperial examination: "By the way, the imperial court reopened the Enke a few days ago, and the person who won the Huiyuan examination this time is still Song Shizi of the Marquis of Zhenguo," her tone was unavoidable. He was very surprised and praised: "True gold is not afraid of fire. Song Shizi is indeed Mr. Xianyun's master disciple."

Yu Youyao couldn't help being taken aback.

Since she came to Quanzhou, she has not paid attention to the movements in Beijing for a long time. Because of her filial piety, she usually lives reclusively and rarely goes out.

Everyone around her knew that she had a deep relationship with her grandmother, and worried that her worrying about her grandmother would not be beneficial to her health, and she rarely even mentioned things in Beijing.

Yu Youyao couldn't help asking: "When will the imperial court reopen Enke?"

Lin Ruoru was a little surprised, she didn't know: "It opened in mid-October. At that time, you were still on the merchant ship heading to Quanzhou. Because of the last scientific expedition, there was a big fraud case. Recently, the court and China are not peaceful. The drought in the north It’s also imminent, this time, the test is far less lively than before, and the people dare not discuss it, until the imperial court released the list not long ago, it was lively for a few days.”

Yu Youyao sighed softly, Quanzhou is a place of commerce and commerce, valuing business over literature, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, such a grand event like the imperial examination must be noisy for a while in Beijing, even if people are sitting at home, the news will spread to the ears But after arriving in Quanzhou, everyone just talked about it, and it had nothing to do with them, and it stopped.

Lin Ruoru seemed very interested: "This time, the re-examination in front of the palace is abolished. Candidates who have obtained the name of Gongsheng can directly enter the palace to take the palace examination."

Yu Youyao thinks it is true: "The imperial examination is a grand event for the court to recruit talents and promote the country. It has been delayed from April until now, and it can't be delayed until the end of the year. At present, the candidates who can continue to refer to are all washed away by the waves, who are truly character and talented, and there is no hindrance if there is one less test in front of the palace."

Most of the candidates for this resumption of the examination are those who were released from prison alive in the previous fraud case. Now the imperial court is making drastic moves to rectify Zhejiang and the southeast coast. Unexpectedly, these candidates will be reused by the court.

only!

The prosperity of official administration lies in Sicha.

The prosperity of the country lies in the imperial examination.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate is dedicated to picketing, impeaching hundreds of officials, arguing wrongdoing, admirals and supervision, and is the emperor's eyes, eyes and discipline.

The ministers of the DPRK and China are treacherous, the villains form cliques, and act in a powerful and chaotic manner;

Hundreds of officials are despicable and greedy, corrupting official discipline;

Academic dishonesty, chaotic law;

Confirm with the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs that officials will be promoted or promoted;

Joint trial of the case, fair judgment with the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple;

Obey the imperial edict, appease the outer regions, patrol and monitor whether each locality is acting according to the imperial edict;

...

The above and so on are all the responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. If the Metropolitan Procuratorate prospers and deters the superior and inferior, then the officials will prosper, the emperor will be wise, and the officials will bow their heads and profess their ministers.

However, now, the eunuchs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are stealing power in the middle, and the cabinet is coercing power, losing its innocence, and causing great chaos in the court.

It has been revealed that the Great Zhou Dynasty was corrupted by officials.

The cheating in the previous scientific examination also implied to a certain extent that the country would be defeated.
