As he lingers, Lin Yutong didn't care about entangling.

Because of the matter of building a library, the imperial edict followed.

Now, the whole capital became lively. Scholars even ran around to tell each other.

Emperor Yongkang's reputation suddenly became noble among scholars. The prince was also proud of his reputation.

I heard that the prince visited privately many times in private, chatted with these talented men from all over the country in restaurants and teahouses, and many people have already been favored by the prince.

Lin Yutong only found it funny. Since it was a private visit, how did these people know that the man belonged to the prince?

Unlike the joy outside, Lin Yutong is now annoyed. It is naturally a good thing to build this library, but it is a bit difficult to do this thing. Some precious books and books are precious because they are few. They cherish their own treasures, but they are actually protecting their own property. Now it is not easy to ask them to take out their own treasures.

But the prince pushed this job to Lin Yutong.

No matter how noisy it is outside, it is useless, and there is not a single one who contributes the book.

The emperor has already circled the location of the library and the personnel have also been drawn out. There are editors from the Hanlin Academy and the Ministry of Works. It can be seen that they are all people who are not very good at doing well in various departments.

The one standing in front of Lin Yutong today is an editor in his twenties named Shen Xiu.

"Sit and talk." Lin Yutong pointed to the chair on the side and said.

Shen Xiu glanced at Lin Yutong, then got up and sat down. Sanxiu served tea. Lin Yutong signaled him to drink tea first, so there was no need to be so anxious.

Shen Xiu didn't come with Lin Yutong, but he actually picked up the tea and took a sip, but Lin Yutong saw his eyebrows frowning tightly.

"What? Not to taste?" she asked.

Shen Xiu put down the teacup and nodded calmly: "Yes! Not up to the taste."

This was said too indifferently. Not only the girl in the room was stunned, but also Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master behind the screen were stunned.

I just don’t know the etiquette anymore. Is it really good to be so honest in front of my master?

Lin Yutong's eyes looked at Shen Xiu were a little meaningful. This shouldn't be deliberately acting alone in front of him, so as to attract his attention.

It is not like this to show one's integrity.

Lin Yutong asked Shen Xiu a big question mark in her heart. So she waved her hand and said to Sanxi: "Give Lord Shen a cup of tea." As she said that, she turned her face and asked Shen Xiu: "What kind of tea Lord Shen likes to drink?"

"As long as it is not flower tea, any tea can do." Shen Xiu glanced at the tea cup with flower tea, "This thing is just a ritual thing for ordinary people."

Sanxi almost put the tray in his hand and still put it on Shen Xiu's face. Who is this ordinary person talking about?

The flower tea that the princess's house hosted was made by their hands.

Lin Yutong was a little amused and laughed: "Mr. Shen doesn't look like a vulgar person."

"Everyone said that." Chen Xiu responded calmly.

Lin Yutong was choked and couldn't speak at once. She didn't know for a moment whether this person was deliberately quarreling with her or whether she really had such a low emotional intelligence.

The Fourth Master behind the screen whispered a few instructions to Guiwu who was serving him, then beat him out first.

Lin Yutong took a deep breath, not intending to continue to be polite with Chen Xiu, and went straight to the topic: "I roughly know what you came here for this time. What do you think about this?"

Chen Xiu's mouth showed a sarcastic smile: "They are all stupid people who cherish themselves. They are short-sighted and vain, so I have an idea in my heart, but it depends on whether Your Highness can ask for grace."

Chen Xiu must have poison in his mouth. He spoke too harshly. As soon as this came out, the offended people went there. If he had always spoken like this, Lin Yutong would know why he was kicked out by the Hanlin Academy to take care of this matter. He was really unpleasant.

Lin Yutong looked at the mockery that he had not taken back. She felt that the mockery was not only directed at those "short-sighted" people, but also at her princess. It seemed that she was saying, without a diamond, why bother to take on this porcelain job? Look! Let's get a note!

Lin Yutong has always wanted to be a tolerant person, really! But what should I do when I see Chen Xiu's face? She suppressed this impulse and whispered: "As long as there is a way, I will go into the palace and ask for it."

Chen Xiu snorted and laughed, but his voice was not loud, but it made people feel that his voice contained too much sarcasm. "According to my opinion, based on the number of books donated and the value of the donated books, please grant some empty positions and allow them to be kind to their children."

Lin Yutong turned the tea around her mouth and swallowed it slowly. His idea was almost the same as his own. Only then did she look at Chen Xiu seriously. Although this person's mouth was a little vicious, he was not a person who could not do anything.

"So..." She put down the teacup and sat upright, "If you look for the Ministry of Works, just say it was me, and ask them to leave a place when designing the drawings of the library, and I want to erect a monument there. Anyone who donates the book can carve their names, life, family, etc. on the monument. After thousands of generations, someone will still remember their names. As long as there are scholars in this world, their names will be remembered forever. As for the things you said about the grace and yin... This area will not be very wide, and only those who do have outstanding contributions can be given additional rewards." The grace and yin are too much, but it is not worth it.

Chen Xiu then looked at Lin Yutong, and his tone was very serious: "I have always thought that erecting a monument is to fool people. I didn't expect that Your Highness would use erecting a monument to fool people! It's really aware!"

Lin Yutong: "..." What dead people are living? Who fooled them? Can you speak? If you can't speak, get out as soon as possible!

When Chen Xiu left, Lin Yutong carried the teacup and carried the anger for a long time. Everything was all! The Fourth Master smiled with the note handed over by Guiwu: "Okay, don't be angry. Chen Xiu won the Tanhua at the age of nineteen. Because he couldn't speak, he wasted his time in the Hanlin Academy until now. He is still from the seventh grade. There were several fourth-grade magistrates who were in the same subject as him at the same time."

Lin Yutong then felt relieved from the teacup and entered it, "You said that this person is so spiritual about studying, why can't he speak or be a human being? With his mouth, he can kill himself in less than two years. Who has not been offended by his colleagues with him? I can't find it, right?"

The Fourth Master laughed: "This is indeed a strange man. It is said that when he first entered the Hanlin Academy, he went to have a drink with a few colleagues. The literati and a scholar, where can we go to this place of drinking besides the Qinlou Chuguan? By the way, he argued with an editor named Mei on a meal about some issues in learning. The two of them didn't come and go, and they debated endlessly, and no one could convince anyone. But when the wine was half-drunk, the editor Mei had no intention of discussing learning with a big man in this place, but was attracted by the little lady who was pouring wine. The wine was a matchmaker, and the editor Mei was anxious to achieve good things with the young lady, so he fought Shen Xiu and said that we would wait for the banquet to leave and go to my house, even if we talked with candles at night. Now we don't care..."

Lin Yutong guessed: "Has he really gone to Mei Xiu Xiu's house?" He was so honest that he couldn't hear what others rude.

The Fourth Master laughed: "When the banquet ends, he will really go to someone's house and wait to talk to him at night. The wife of Editor Mei's editor was surprised and said that the master was not here, so why should I hit someone and look for it. I just don't know where it is? Maybe when will I find it?" These are all words of ruling and I'm giving an order to expel guests.

Lin Yutong laughed more and more.

The Fourth Master continued to say, "Don't Chen Xiu think that he was expelling a guest in disguise. He honestly told his wife, "You don't know where your master is, it doesn't matter. I know! He told his wife very enthusiastically that she clearly told the whereabouts of Mei Xiu Xiu, and explained to her girl who looks like she was in which room and what good things she did. When she was about to come, she asked her wife to order the kitchen to prepare wine and food, and wait for Mei Xiu Xiu to come back to continue talking at night. Who would think that the wife was a stingy lady, and her mother's family was powerful, and Mei Xiu's editor could only get through her father-in-law's job. Yes. It’s okay to hear this. Madam Mei immediately brought someone to smash the brothel. Half of the capital city knew about it. It was already midnight when the couple returned home. But when they got home, the couple didn’t have time to close the door and deal with private affairs because there were still customers waiting for the candle to talk at night. Mei Xiu’s angry naturally when she saw Chen Xiu. This made Chen Xiu very angry. She felt that Mei Xiu looked down on him, and she was so careless about what she had agreed on. She waited for half a night before she stopped talking, but she even shook her face. Is this a way to entertain guests? So she broke off her robe with Mei Xiu on the spot…”

Lin Yutong smiled and rubbed her stomach, "This Mei editor is afraid that she can't strangle Chen Xiu to death! You cut your robe and break off your friendship? Who would be happy to have a friendship with a guy like you?" After smiling for a while, he asked the Fourth Master, "Didn't Chen Xiuzhen have a grudge with someone surnamed Mei?"

The Fourth Master shook his head: "It's really no grudge! But since then, he has become a grudge. Editor Mei has become a bad reputation in the capital. In the end, he made up for a shortage. He went to a small county town in the northwest border and became a county lieutenant. He has never heard of this person again in recent years."

This Chen Xiu is simply a personal killing weapon! Cutting people's future is like cutting melons and vegetables.

After laughing, Lin Yutong came to her senses. The Fourth Master specifically asked to inquire about this person's past, but I'm afraid he wanted to use him.

The Fourth Master nodded and looked solemn: "This person's shortcomings, even some of them, are simply fatal. But if you look at this from another perspective, this disadvantage is an advantage that no one has." His voice lowered and he whispered: "This is the material of a natural lonely minister!"

Lin Yutong took a deep breath: "I understand!"

It is said that the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, but the emperor's stomach is afraid that everything can be tolerated.

Within two days, the story of building a stele forest in the library was spread. This was regarded as a grand event by scholars in the capital. The geese leave their voices, and the people leave their names behind. Few those who are not moved.

After all, the library does not want the original collection of books, it just needs a handwritten copy.

In less than two days, the two-entry yard that served as a temporary office location for the library was crowded.

Lin Yutong didn't know whether this stone tablet fooled the dead. But this must have fooled the living.

Emperor Yongkang was in a better condition, and he heard that the matter was so smooth. He was in a good mood and told Lin Yutong to enter the palace.

"This matter is done successfully! It's done well!" He praised Lin Yutong in front of Gan and the prince. "I originally asked the Ministry of Revenue to prepare a lot of money and plan to reward him. I just thought it was the court who bought books from them. Now that you have been troubled by this, I have saved a lot of money."

Bluestone slabs cost as much as possible. How much money can it cost.

Once this stele forest was erected, it not only promoted the reputation of these book donors, but also spread the reputation of his emperor to future generations.

Emperor Yongkang looked at Lin Yutong's neither humble nor arrogant face and said, "The New Year is coming soon..."

The late emperor and Prince Duan died on New Year's Eve. This New Year is really hard for Emperor Yongkang.

Should I celebrate, or shouldn't?

Lin Yutong understood Emperor Yongkang's subtext, and after a long time he heard him say, "In a few days, I will go to Dacien Temple to burn incense. Yun Yin and the prince-consort will go together."

It is a glorious thing to accompany you.

Lin Yutong had no choice but to nod and respond.

After coming out of the imperial study room, Lin Yutong followed Gan to Beichen Palace and asked in a low voice: "Is the emperor uneasy?"

Gan nodded: "After all, he is his biological father and brother... After a long time, the little uneasiness in his heart has risen." Because of this, even though no one advised the emperor not to go to Yilan Palace recently, he was in no mood to go.

The emperor said a few days, not just a few days. When he was ready and said he was about to leave, it was already the twelfth lunar month.

Emperor Yongkang's descendants were originally just a few melons and two dates, but this time I came out, I took them all with me.

Concubine Chen accompanied Emperor Yongkang on the dragon chariot, followed by the queen, and Li Cairen hugged Yuan Ge'er, and was also among them.

Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master followed the prince and walked slowly.

On the way, Lin Yutong asked the Fourth Master: "You said you watched the show some time ago, so it should be a good show this time."

The Fourth Master nodded: "It has nothing to do with us, just watch it."
