Need for money

In this day and age, people cannot stand without faith, let alone Lin Jingzhi, at the age of [-], made a vow not long after he graduated from high school, and everyone knows what happened, so even if Lin Jingzhi wants to If you are involved in official career, you must first think about whether you can withstand the accusations and difficulties of public opinion.

Furthermore, the reason for Lin Jingzhi's oath was because of the death of his parents. If he really violated his oath, wouldn't he be an unfilial person?

Unfaithfulness and unfilial piety account for these two things. If he cannot find a better excuse to refute, no matter how talented he is, he will not be recognized by the world, and his future will be good.

Let me ask, which emperor would dare to reuse Ju Ren who was cast aside by the world?

What kind of master, what kind of slave is used, if the emperor dares to reuse him, wouldn't he also be charged with unfaithfulness and disfilial piety?

Lin Jingzhi had thought carefully about whether to re-enter the official career, and thought it through very thoroughly. He not only rejected being an official, but also figured out the links in it, so he felt that if there was no good opportunity or opportunity in the future, he would In this life, I have no chance to be an official.

"Back to General Zheng..."

Lin Jingzhi was just about to speak, but was interrupted by Zheng Sheng. To be honest, apart from wanting to make friends with his son and Lin Jingzhi, Zheng Sheng also loved this young man because of the wishful jade that Lin Jingzhi gave him with great intentions. I have a good impression, "Nephew, you don't have to look outside like this. This place is neither court nor in the barracks. You still call this old man Uncle Zheng."

"Yes, Uncle Zheng." Lin Jingzhi was thinking about how to get close to him, and the other party opened his mouth automatically. Naturally, he would not refuse such a good thing that he longed for, and then explained: "Uncle Zheng, really To be honest, the reason why my nephew is unwilling to re-enter the official career is mainly because the departure of his parents has dealt a heavy blow to my nephew."

"My nephew was able to pass the examination at the age of fourteen thanks to the tireless teaching and cultivation of his parents. But in the end, because of his fame in the examination, his parents and adults died in depression. Let me ask Uncle Zheng, With such a selfish disposition of nephew, how can he be qualified to set foot in court, and besides, his parents are gone, so even if nephew can be the number one scholar in high school, who will he show him to?"

He told the late Lin Jingzhi's thoughts of not wanting to be an official, and Lin Jingzhi was also touched. His eyes were sore, and he shed a few tears. In his last life, his parents had to retaliate over and over again before they died. I told him over and over again that he must live a good life, so the topic of parents could easily touch the softest emotion in his heart.

In the eyes of Zheng Sheng and his son, the scene where the Confucian blamed himself for missing his parents and shed tears was embarrassing.

However, although Zheng Jianqiu was quite touched, he still did not give up his plan to persuade Lin Jingzhi to re-enter the official career, but just as he was about to speak, his father shook his head slightly at him, signaling him to stop persuading him for the time being.

Zheng Sheng is also a dutiful son, and he knows how hard his parents' departure will deal a heavy blow to his son. What's more, the death of Lin Jingzhi's parents has a lot to do with Lin Jingzhi. At this time, consolation is useless. Functional.

It was late at this time, and the sky was getting dark, Zheng Sheng stood up and said: "Nephew, your parents have passed away and cannot be brought back to life. You should look at it in the future. If the old man remembers correctly , you still have a grandma in your family to support, not for anything else, but for the old man to spend his old age in peace, you have to cheer up again."

When Zheng Jianqiu received his father's look, he also stood up, stepped forward to support Lin Jingzhi's arm, and said: "Yes, brother, you have to look away a little more in the future. Let's go, time is running out." It's getting late, let's go to the restaurant for dinner together."

Lin Jingzhi turned his head sideways, wiped away the few drops of tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and when he raised his head again, he was much calmer, "My nephew felt a little bit impolite at the moment."

"As far as love is concerned, it's not rude to say anything. The old man is a general who practices martial arts, and he is a man who likes true temperament. Let's go and have dinner with the old man!" Zheng Sheng waved his big hand, raised his footsteps first, and walked out of the hall , Lin Jingzhi and Zheng Jianqiu hurriedly followed behind side by side.

Zheng Sheng's back is very tall and straight, like a ridge that cannot be bent, he walks very fast with the wind under his feet, and speaks boldly. From a fourth-rank official in the land, is this Zheng Sheng really so simple?

Although Lin Jingzhi has never been an official in his two lifetimes combined, he still shook his head lightly, no matter whether it is a civil servant or a military officer, if he really doesn't know how to be an official, it is impossible to achieve this achievement.

The Zheng family has several restaurants, and because Lin Jingzhi is a male customer, he had to walk a little longer to avoid the women in the backyard. After passing through three or four arches, he went out for about 300 meters and came face-to-face. A young man with a fair complexion who was about the same age as Zheng Jianqiu came.

Seeing this young man, Zheng Jianqiu's expression changed involuntarily.

The young man obviously didn't expect to meet three people here, and before Zheng Sheng approached, he hurried up to greet him, "Yuan'er greets father."

Zheng Sheng stopped, gave him a little support, and said, "Get up, your elder brother and I are going to have a banquet today, so you step back."

"Yes." The young man responded, looked at Lin Jingzhi curiously, then cupped his hands casually at Zheng Jianqiu, turned and left.

When the young man looked at Zheng Jianqiu, there was obviously a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Zheng Jianqiu's face darkened slightly, and then he took a deep breath to calm himself down again, and while walking, he introduced Lin Jingzhi casually, "My dear brother, that young man is my second brother, Zheng Guangyuan."

The Zheng family is not as powerful as the Lin family, and the power in the mansion is very complicated. Although Zheng Jianqiu's mother is the main wife, her natal family is not very powerful. Zheng Sheng used to have a political marriage with a dignitary in the court for consideration of his official career, and married two ordinary wives. Well, the two ordinary wives also gave birth to their own children, so although the Zheng family's connections are prosperous, they also have their own troubles.

Zheng Jianqiu was assassinated in Los Angeles not long ago, and the mastermind behind it was most likely the master of the Zheng family.

In fact, Zheng Sheng is also clear about this matter, but the two families and flat wives are not easy to provoke, and they both have sons, and their status is consolidated. Although he is very angry about this matter, if there is no real evidence , he was really helpless.

In his eyes, these children are his own flesh and blood, but the two flat wives are staring at the position of the eldest son and refuse to give up, so he has to transfer the most skilled guards to Zheng Jianqiu By my side, to protect this son.

Zheng Jianqiu's mother was just the daughter of a small businessman, so Zheng Sheng's other wives and concubines have always looked down upon him, and Zheng Jianqiu was also looked down upon by his half-brothers and sisters because of his mother's low status. The eldest son, in fact, in the mansion, his power is far inferior to his younger brothers.

Lin Jingzhi saw that Zheng Jianqiu's face was obviously a little ugly, so he just nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

When the three of them came to the dining room, the servants immediately put the food on the table. During the meal, Zheng Jianqiu still did not forget to persuade Lin Jingzhi to change his mind. Lin Jingzhi had already been moved once before, and when he refused this time, his words were not too violent. Zheng Sheng sat in the upper seat, and saw that his son was just chattering, and frowned. It seemed that this son was still a little frivolous and irritable, not calm enough.

After giving Zheng Jianqiu a wink, he dipped his fingers in water and secretly wrote a few large characters in the dark, "If you want, you can't achieve it!" '

After being stunned for a moment, Zheng Jianqiu suddenly realized that he no longer mentioned the topic of persuading Lin Jingzhi to re-enter the official career.
