Chapter 4 Father and Son

Today, the Qing Kingdom is known as the prosperous era. It has been a prosperous country for ten years and the people are rich and at ease. There are many titles of the so-called No. wise ruler in the ages and the No. 1 ruler in the ages. But what is wonderful is that the corrupt officialdom that is known as No. 1 in the ages and the No. 1 in the ages.

This treacherous prime minister is Lin Ruofu. Lin Ruofu was born in a poor family and was not a high-ranking family. He entered the officialdom through the imperial examination and started as the chief clerk of the Zhanshi Mansion in Suzhou. He was transferred to the central government of the Central Government and then to the 12 guards of the Southern Yaya. He was then appointed as the chief clerk of the old prisoner and the chief clerk of the Hanlin Academy. In the last new policy, he was transferred to the six ministries to be responsible for specific affairs. He was appointed as the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of the Shangshu. He was promoted to the head of the civil servants today - the Prime Minister below one person and above ten thousand people.

When people carefully observed the official positions that the prime minister had held, they found that he had served as a civilian, military position, a minister and a supervisor. Although his official position had rise and fall, he had experienced all the places in the Qing State officialdom, and his official position was always moving up slowly and firmly.

It is rumored that Lin Ruofu is not reliant on the inner palace and has no complicated background relationships, but he is able to rise and fall in the complex officialdom of Qing State and never fall. This surprised many people.

This prime minister was clear-headed on the surface, sinister and vicious inside, and accepted countless bribes. In addition, he offended many people in the game between civil servants and princes and nobles, so he fell into an image of the powerful and the nobles who were not close to each other and the people did not love each other.

However, for decades, he had already grown countless branches in the civil service system of Qingguo, and the big tree had always stood firm. The censors often reported impeachment of the prime minister, but there was no evidence, so they had to give up. The Qingming people in Kyoto hated him to the core and wanted to eat his flesh raw, but no one dared to tease him in person on the face of the official side.

In the entire Qing State, except for His Majesty the Emperor who can take the life and power of the prime minister, no one else can do it. This is the consensus of all officials. In the entire Qing State, except for the president of the Supervision Office who can salivate the prime minister in front of him, no one else has that courage. This is the unanimous view of all the powerful.

The dean still paid the price of three years of salary when he vomited the prime minister's saliva in the street. This punishment was given by His Majesty himself.

...

...

When people discovered that His Majesty’s trust in the prime minister had never weakened, the officials and scholars who claimed to be Qingming began to feel a little desperate. At this time, no one expected that the newspaper would actually have news that Prime Minister Lin Ruofu had an illegitimate daughter!

It is normal for any high-ranking clan to marry a few concubines. If there is only one woman in your backyard? I'm sorry, I'm really embarrassed to attend the party. However, Shifeng values ​​bloodlines the most important etiquette. Although everyone knows cunning and cruelty, he always claims to be a pure and illegitimate daughter outside, which is a loss of virtue. And that daughter is already in her teens and has not been taken back to the house, and let her live alone outside. As a father, it is a proof of her lack of kindness.

Because the news was released from the palace, a small earthquake triggered in the Kyoto officialdom. People speculated whether His Majesty the Emperor was tired of seeing the prime minister and was preparing to replace him. This led to the later incident of the Censorate's collective letter.

To everyone's surprise, His Majesty the Emperor personally came forward to suppress the matter. The matter gradually subsided, but the prime minister's illegitimate daughter became the center of attention.

———————————————————

Fan Xian smiled bitterly, never expecting that the woman he was about to marry had such a background and was so similar to his life experience. At this moment, the noise outside became louder. The brother and sister knew that the man had returned home, so they looked at each other and stopped saying anything. Fan Xian just asked his sister to take him out for a walk when he was waiting. Fan Ruoru nodded slightly.

The candle fire started, but the sky outside was not completely dark, so the candle fire seemed very dim.

There were a table of sumptuous dishes in the hall, with five people sitting, and many maids and servants next to them were serving. Fan Xian noticed that Liu did not serve the head of the family first like ordinary concubines, but sat next to the middle-aged man, with a calm expression.

That middle-aged man was his father? Thinking of this, Fan Xian's brows frowned slightly, and very beautiful small folds appeared between his eyebrows.

Si Nanbo has a solemn face, a straight facial features, and a four-inch beard that people like to keep at the time. He looks like he knows that his temperament is serious and serious.

After eating quietly, Si Nanbo walked in front and Fan Xian followed, all the way to the study.

This is the first time Fan Xian has been with this "father". He smiled and was not very excited because deep down he never really regarded the other person as his close relative.

Si Nanbo looked at the boy in front of him, looking at the young man's beautiful face, thinking about something, and then sighed gently after a while: "I look really like your mother."

Fan Xian didn't say anything, because he had never seen his mother look like. However, he had countless questions about his father in front of him, but he knew that it was not his turn to ask the first question.

"How have you lived in Danzhou these years?" Si Nanbo looked at him, and his eyebrows seemed a little tired, but he still couldn't hide the traces of his handsomeness when he was in his prime.

"It's done."

"On the way here, I believe that with your personality, I should have found the reason why I was rushing to let you enter Beijing this time."

"yes."

"Will you feel wronged?"

"No." Fan Xian replied with a smile: "I just took a ride to Kyoto, and I didn't say I had to marry that lady Lin."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, the study room suddenly fell into a dead silence. After a while, Si Nanbo said coldly: "Do you know what it means to marry the other party?"

"It means that in addition to the saints who have never faded, the Fan Mansion can also hold a thick thigh in the court?"
