Chapter 347: Declining the Emperor’s Favor and Taking the Wrong Way

But he had also watched palace dramas on Earth, and seeing this person's image made him suddenly have a bold idea in his mind.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I am Lin Yun. I am living in Yun Mansion with the emperor's favor. I wonder what your surname is?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, unfolded the folding fan in his hand and looked Lin Yun up and down.

Lin Yun felt a little uncomfortable when he saw him, but the answer in his heart became clearer and he became nervous.

"I heard Cui Mingchong say how outstanding your abilities are before. I still didn't believe it. But when I saw you today, you are indeed a talented person!!"

Lin Yun was completely stunned and stared at him blankly.

At this time, a eunuch behind him made a high-pitched voice and said: "How dare you not bow down to the Lord Long Live!!"

Only then did Lin Yun react, feeling very shocked.

He thought the emperor would come with Cui Mingchong, but he didn't expect that he would arrive suddenly.

He knelt on the ground with a bang, bowed three times and kowtowed, and shouted: "Lin Yun, a common man, kowtows to the emperor, long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

Lin Yun was not mentally prepared at all, but he still imitated the plot in the TV series and performed three bows and nine kowtows.

I don’t know how Daduan Dynasty came to see the emperor.

The emperor raised his head and laughed, saying: "You don't have to be polite! I'm going on tour incognito this time, so I don't have to deal with the routine in the palace!!"

Lin Yun then stood up and stood respectfully aside, not daring to raise his head to look at the emperor.

You know, looking up at the king and intending to stab the king and kill him is a crime of losing one's head.

No matter how ignorant Lin Yun was, he would not dare to mess around on this issue.

Especially since I still don’t know what the emperor’s attitude is towards me.

And when he came to Beijing this time, he didn't expect to see the current emperor.

In addition, his subordinates are also engaged in the mining business, which is what the royal family hates the most.

It was precisely because of this that Cui Mingchong dared to speak loudly.

He knew that Lin Yun did not dare to speak out, so he acted unscrupulously.

The emperor smiled and said: "Lin Yun, why don't you dare to look at me? Am I so scary?"

"The common people dare not look up at you, please forgive me!"

"You raise your head! I forgive you!"

The emperor seemed to be in a very good mood. He put away his folding fan and clasped his hands behind his back, his eyes already falling on the main hall in front.

Lin Yun then raised his head and glanced at the emperor.

In fact, even without raising his head, he had firmly remembered the emperor's appearance without knowing it.

"The Emperor is indeed the Nine-Five Supreme Being! It is also my blessing, Lin Yun, to be able to face the Emperor in person today!"

Seeing Lin Yun's sweet mouth, the emperor smiled and said: "Okay! Don't be so polite! Come in with me, I have something to say to you alone!"

"According to the order!!"

Lin Yun cupped his fists and accepted the order.

At this time, a young eunuch worriedly said: "Long live, this man is just a poor man, you are the real dragon emperor, how virtuous and capable he is..."

Before the little eunuch could finish speaking, the emperor stared at him with a gloomy look and said, "What? Do you still need to take care of what I'm doing? Get out and wait!!"

"The slave is guilty!!"

The little eunuch was startled and fell to his knees with a thud.

But the emperor no longer looked at him and stepped into the palace.

Lin Yun followed closely behind. Entering the palace, the emperor sat directly on the chair, made a gesture to Lin Yun, and said with a smile: "Sit down too!!"

At this moment, even if the emperor asked him to sit down, Lin Yun would not have the courage.

Being on an equal footing with the king is also a big deal.

"The common people don't dare!! If the emperor has anything to say, just ask him. The common people will definitely know everything and tell you everything!"

The emperor didn't force himself when he saw this, he just nodded, with a hint of sadness clearly in his eyes.

The reason why he likes to travel incognito is because he wants to be like ordinary people.

He was respected by a group of people in the palace. Unexpectedly, he was still like this after leaving the palace.

You must know that although the emperor is the emperor, he has great power and can make people's heads fall to the ground with just one word.

But he is also lonely because no one dares to be friends with him.

"That's it! It's up to you! Lin Yun, do you know why I came to see you this time?"

Lin Yun clasped his fists and said: "The common people should not discuss the emperor's concerns unreasonably, but since the emperor has asked, please forgive the common people for being bold. The emperor wants to talk about the reduction of vassals..."

Lin Yun lowered his head and whispered.

"Haha!! Well, Lin Yun, you are indeed as smart as Cui Mingchong said! You are right, I am here just for this matter! Originally, based on your status, you are not qualified to discuss national affairs with me! But I have heard Cui Mingchong talk about your actions this year many times, and you are really good! You have done a lot to save my people!!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty! But Lin Yun doesn't dare to take it seriously! The common people are growing grain in Niubei Village, and the reason why they can get a bumper harvest is all thanks to the wisdom of the Holy One, who has made Niubei Village good and prosperous!"

Lin Yun's flattery was also very impressive.

It's not that he doesn't know how to flatter, but it depends on the other person's identity.

Now that the emperor is here, he naturally has to show his courtesy.

If he could directly lean on the emperor's thigh, then his path to the Daduan Dynasty would be smooth.

Although I dare not say that there will be no resistance, people like Cui Mingchong must think carefully if they want to bully themselves.

"Okay! Don't put gold on my face! I have heard what Cui Mingchong said. It was you who transformed the barren land in Niubei Village and created some artificial rainfall to achieve a bumper harvest! On the contrary, it was Na Hao This city is obviously the granary of our Daduan Dynasty, but it has so many problems!"

Lin Yun nodded secretly and said: "Your Majesty, the famine in Haocheng is entirely the result of the feudal king's rule. Therefore, the reduction of the feudal clan must be put on the agenda! The sooner the better!"

The emperor smiled and said: "I didn't expect that you, a commoner, would have such a deep strategic vision! Staying in Niubei Village is really an insult to your talents! What do you think? Are you interested in doing things for me?"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up, and he knelt on the ground directly and said: "Thanks to the Holy Spirit, the common people are willing to serve my Daduan Divine Dynasty!"

"Very good! How about I make you the Right Chief Envoy of Fengyang County first?"

Lin Yun was stunned for a moment. He naturally knew what the chief envoy meant.

In Fengyang County today, the chief envoy to the left is Lin Zixiang, who is second only to the Lin family vassal in power.

I had a confrontation with him in Yucheng before.

However, although Lin Yun was happy, he did not intend to accept it.

I'm happy because the emperor values ​​him, and he definitely has some ideas to give him such a high-ranking position.

But how could Lin Yun agree?

Once he is bound by the court now, whatever he wants to do in the future will be controlled by others.

Lin Yun was naturally unwilling.

He cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the common people are willing to contribute to the country and the country of Daduan Dynasty! But they don't want to be officials! Moreover, even if they are not officials, the common people can still be loyal to Your Majesty!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows and said with great interest: "It's really strange! Those old guys in the court have been pestering me all day long, asking for official positions for their disciples. I took the initiative to give you an official position, but you didn't want it? Can you tell me the reason? ?"
