Chapter 79: Honorable gift

In life, there are still a few people who really don’t seek knowledge.

Food is the most important thing for people. The first requirement is to eat full, and once they are full, the demands begin to increase. Eat well, dress well, and play well... These various needs fall into reality and ultimately fall into one word - money. If you want to live a good life, you must make money. As the saying goes, rice raises hundreds of people, and different people make money different ways. Some people dig food from the soil and sell crops for money; some people make money by making utensils; some people start shops and make money by doing business; some people learn skills and make money by sex... But among all industries, everyone's first choice is to study and become officials - "Everything is inferior, but reading is high." If you have power and power, money will naturally come in a steady stream. Since ancient times, it has been nothing more than that.

However, once he gained power, he began to fear loss. There were so many officials in the Dajian Dynasty. No matter he was a minor official or a minister in the six ministries, no matter how brave he was, in addition to the emperor of the dynasty, he was always afraid of the same person. Once he woke up and found that such a person stood at your doorstep, he would at least lose his black veil, and at worst he would confiscate the family and exterminate the clan!

But Lin Nan found that this kind of person stood at the gate of Jingbei Bo Mansion, and the person he was looking for was himself!

There were two people standing under the steps at the door, wearing feetless heads, soapy clothes, black boots, and a shark-skin black scabbard around their waists. Although the two were not wearing squad clothes, Lin Nan, who often met Du Ning, was still recognized in this outfit. He was the famous official of the Dajian Dynasty - Feilingwei!

When I saw these two people, Lin Nan muttered in my heart, what are they doing when they are idle? While thinking about Lin Nan, they looked at them. They were not secretly investigating, and they didn’t seem to be working in office, because if they were detectives, they would not wear soap clothes, but if they wanted to handle the case formally, they would have to wear black raccoon uniforms. From this point of view, these two people came a bit strange. They had nothing to do with Fei Lingwei. The biggest thing they had done recently was to pass the provincial examination...

Lin Nan's mind flashed, but when he arrived at the door, he did not slow down at all. He stepped forward and bowed and bowed: "I have met two chasers in Lin Nan."

The two officials focused their eyes on Lin Nan, clasped their fists, and walked forward one by the left head, saying, "So this person is Lin Juren, I feel respectful!"

Yoho? Lin Nan raised his eyebrows. The two of them looked kind, and their words and behaviors were not only not malicious, but they were a bit respectful. What does this mean? Lin Nan bowed again: "I just passed the exam just now, so I can't be respectful. I dare to ask you... You are here..."

"Oh, hehe!" The man in the left chuckled and said, "Don't think about it anymore. We brothers are not here for anything else. When we heard that Lin Juren's high school in the first grade of the first grade, we all were happy! We are busy with official business and couldn't get rid of it for a while, so we had to ask our brothers to come and congratulate him on behalf of us. We hope that Lin Juren will not be surprised."

"Oh!" Lin Nan stroked his forehead and then understood what was going on. The two people's own adults were so familiar that they sent someone to congratulate him. Of course, they were the commander of Dong Town Du Ning. The commander of Xi Town Lin Nan had never seen anyone yet after hearing his name! Lin Nan hurriedly said, "Your politeness is so polite. I really feel sorry for the two commissioners. I have no respect for a little bit. I hope the two commissioners will not be disgusted." As he said that, he took out two silver ingots from his sleeve and handed them to the commissioners. Although the expressions of the two men did not change much, he took the silver and the distance between Lin Nan was invisibly closer.

The situation in front of him was a bit strange: the two Feiling Guards said they were congratulating on behalf of the people, but their hands were empty. They didn't plan to take out anything from their arms, so they brought it with them empty-handed and said a word to congratulate them, but Lin Nan also took the money to thank them! All this was added to Lin Zhi's eyes next to him, and it added a little doubt and confusion out of thin air.

At this moment, the official on the left head turned his head and looked at his companion, walked a few steps closer to Lin Nan, and whispered: "Ju Ren Lin, can you use one step to speak?"

Lin Nan's heart moved, and knew that the main topic was coming, so he turned around and entered the corner gate and brought the two officials to the side hall. Lin Zhi also followed him, and Lin Nan waved his hand at him: "Brother Zhi, please watch me outside, don't let others come in."

As he spoke, he entered the room. At this moment, there was no one else in the side hall. Lin Nan was still waiting to make tea and deliver water. The previous official said: "Jun Lin doesn't have to be busy at first. We are here to do the errands. After the handover, we have to go back."

"Then I'll be sorry for being neglected." Lin Nan stopped his hand and looked at the two officials. The leader was not long-winded. He took out a small blue cloth bag from his arms and did not hand it to Lin Nan directly, but put it on the table. Then he did it on his own and untied the bag. It was a half-foot square mahogany box inside. The difference is that this mahogany box did not have a lock, with a buckle on all sides, and was tightly sealed on the top and bottom. In the middle of the seam, a piece of dark red fire paint was lit!

The official unpacked the blue cloth, turned the mahogany box into a position, and said, "This item is sealed intact, the fire lacquer is still new, without any signs of prying. Please give Juren Lin a testimony." After saying that, he looked at the other official, and the official nodded slightly without any objection. Seeing the actions of the two, Lin Nan did not dare to be negligent. He hurriedly stepped forward and looked carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, nodded at the official.

Seeing Lin Nan nodding, the two officials breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were taking off a heavy burden on their shoulders, and the people became much more relaxed. "Since the fact that Lin Juren was confirmed correctly, our mission was over and we were about to go back and dispose of the mission soon." Seeing Lin Nan's confusion, the officials smiled and said, "Don't think too much about Lin Juren. When we came, we brought it over, saying that Lin Juren had any questions and all of them were on this thing. You will know at a glance that the rest of us will not talk much in the future. Let's go back now and say goodbye!"

After seeing off the officer, Lin Nan returned to the side hall. Lin Zhi followed him up and looked left and right: "Brother, which yamen were those two people just now? Why do they look inappropriate?"

Lin Nan smiled: "Be careful, these people are much harder to deal with than the servants you have ever seen."

Lin Zhi snorted indifferently: "I can see that my brother has been on the B list and has really reached the top in one step. In just a few days, even the people at the yamen came to give gifts." Lin Zhi looked envious and turned around and looked at the mahogany box on the table: "This box looks good, brother, what is it inside?"

Lin Nan looked at him and was amused: "Isn't it just that I'm saying so much around the bush? Hehe, to be honest, I also want to know what is inside, which makes it mysterious... Go and get me a dagger."

"Oh!" Lin Zhi heard the words and walked out of the door in three steps. After a while, he turned back and handed Lin Nan a small dagger. The two of them fell into the ground with all their hands and feet. When they opened the lid, they couldn't help but be stunned - it was still a box that caught their eyes! The two brothers looked at each other, and their curiosity became increasingly serious. The box inside was square and yellow, with cloud pattern reliefs embedded on the four walls. There was a brass beast button buckle on each side, and there was no lock.

Just as he looked at the two of them, they sighed in their hearts. Such a beautiful box is very exquisite! Lin Zhi was so surprised, but Lin Nan was a little puzzled. Just looking at this box is pleasing enough. You can imagine that the things inside must be valuable. Even if Du Ning had acquainted with his uncle and father, the gift was probably heavy enough...

Open the button and open the lid. It is golden satin inside, with a slightly concave in the middle. There is a warm white jade pendant on it. The entire jade pendant is the size of a teacup mouth, and is oval, pure white, delicate and warm. If you look closely, it seems that there is a layer of warm fluorescent light coming out of the jade. The jade pendant is engraved with Ruyi cloud patterns and two small lucky beasts, with perforated holes on the top, wearing a big red rope, and underneath are the ears of Ruyi connecting the heart.

Just like this thing is in front of me. Even if Brother Lin Nan is not an expert in jade, it can be seen that this is a good thing. Lin Zhi opened his mouth wide and looked at Lin Nan, with envious eyes. It seems that it is better to study. Once he is in high school, he can have any good things! Lin Nan was also stunned and kept turning around in his heart. Things are indeed good things, but this is too expensive! Lin Nan has been in the palace for more than five years, and has never eaten pork and has seen pig run. There are so many princes and princes

Lord, Lin Nan has seen a lot of things he wore on his body, and his eyes are more or less a little bit. Seeing the jade in the box in front of him, Lin Nan's heart suddenly sank. The reason is that although the jade pendant worn by ordinary princes and princesses is of excellent quality, it is still incomparable to the jade in front of him! Since this problem arises, he did nothing. At best, even if he got a master of juren's fame, why did that commander give such a big gift?

Lin Nan is not as rough as Lin Zhi. He is already meticulous. After staying in the palace for a long time, he has developed the habit of thinking twice before doing everything. At this time, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. While he was hesitating, Lin Zhi stretched out his hand and took out the box from the mahogany box. He was about to take it out to play with it, but suddenly his eyes looked into the mahogany box and made a "huh" sound. "Brother, there seems to be a letter here..."

"Oh?" Lin Nan looked down and saw that, sure enough, there was a piece of plain paper folded flat on the position of the yellow small box. It was pressed by the small box before, so I didn't see it! Seeing this, Lin Nan hurriedly reached out and took it over, spread it out before taking a look, but closed it again, and waved at Lin Zhi: "Brother Zhi, you go out first."
