After Gu Jinfu came forward to report, Lin Pingzhi followed him to meet the trembling and suspicious Da Ming Zi.

Emperor Wanli's current state of mind is very poor. Although there are layers of guards outside, he still doesn't feel very safe.

Even when eating, he now only dares to eat small stoves made by the Empress Dowager or Concubine Zheng himself.After all, the woman he loves most and his biological mother will not harm him.

Seeing Emperor Wanli's dejected face, Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so worried. Now that the palace is tightly guarded, if the assassin misses, he probably won't come again for a while."

Emperor Wanli looked at Lin Pingzhi at this time and said, "I can rest assured that Aiqing is by my side. It's just that Aiqing came to see me late at night, but what's the matter?"

Lin Pingzhi also cut straight to the point and said: "The humble minister came here this time as a reward from the emperor. Although the things bestowed by the emperor are all favors from the emperor, it is against the courtesy of the emperor and ministers to bestow the beautiful women in the palace to the ministers." , and ask the emperor to take it back."

After getting along with each other during this period, Emperor Wanli was also a straightforward person. Now that the Ming Dynasty has changed his blood again, he has monopolized all the power. Although the power has been returned, the corresponding workload has also increased a lot.However, Emperor Wanli did not have the influence of the national struggle, and he himself was relatively diligent.

So when talking to him, it's better to be straightforward, so as to save each other's time.After all, he now has a lot of memorials to review every day.

Emperor Wanli said at this time: "Hey! Aiqing is a meritorious minister, but I am in the old system, and the clan is not allowed to be knighted for non-military merit. Otherwise, I will reward more than two beautiful girls. I don't like Aiqing's evasion. These two? If you don't like it, it's okay, just choose whichever one Aiqing likes among the girls in Chuxiu Palace."

Lin Pingzhi said, "But."

Emperor Wanli said at this time: "Hey! Aiqing is nothing to be proud of. You just need to enjoy my reward."

Seeing Emperor Wanli's attitude and Eunuch Cai Gu's words just now, Lin Pingzhi now confirmed his guess.These two women were not meat buns beating dogs, but spies sent by the emperor to tie him up and monitor him.

At this time, Lin Pingzhi said embarrassingly: "Your Majesty, it's not because I'm evading, but I have four wives and concubines and one outhouse, and my wife, although young, is very jealous. Dare to tell her. If the emperor rewards two more humble ministers, then there will be no peace in the humble minister's family."

Hearing Lin Pingzhi's words, Emperor Wanli couldn't help laughing.

It's kind of a little spice for the blues days.

He didn't expect that No. 1 in martial arts would be "fearful of internal affairs".

Emperor Wanli said with a smile: "Hahaha, I never thought that Aiqing's martial arts skills are so powerful that she is afraid of guilt."

Lin Pingzhi pretended to be ashamed and said with a smile: "I made the emperor laugh. My wife was only a cardamom when she married this humble official, so this humble official has loved her very much over the years. It's not really true to say that she is afraid. It's just that I love her."

Emperor Wanli still couldn't help but nodded with a smile.After all, he also understands this.Although he made Zhu Changxun the prince, although he has the personal ability of the prince, he loves the house and the black more. Although Emperor Wanli has 3000 beauties in the harem, he himself is not very lustful, but he has a deep affection for Concubine Zheng.

Then Emperor Wanli said: "As far as I know, Aiqing's wife is now the head of the Hengshan School, and she is far away in Hengshan. Now Aiqing is at the foot of the emperor, and you two are thousands of miles apart. Why worry about this?"

Lin Pingzhi had thought that Emperor Wanli would say this, and he said: "It's all because I brought my little lady with me. The little lady of this humble minister is the dowry maid of my wife. The two of them are of one mind, if this humble minister will If the beauty bestowed by the emperor is brought back home, then I’m afraid she will fly a horse to send a letter to tell my wife. At that time, my wife may run to the capital with a sword on horseback to find trouble for my humble minister.”

Having said that, Lin Pingzhi pretended to shake his head helplessly.

Lin Pingzhi, who was looking at Emperor Wanli at this time, asked: "Then according to Aiqing's words, how can we accept the real reward?"

Lin Pingzhi looked at the emperor at this time, and continued: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask the Emperor for another reward."

Hearing this, Emperor Wanli also let go of his guard.

Then Emperor Wanli said: "This time, Aiqing has made great contributions. If there is anything Aiqing wants, feel free to mention it."

Lin Pingzhi said: "Although I have a mansion in the capital, the mansion is too small to accommodate so many people. The emperor has eradicated cronies this time and copied the homes of many high-ranking officials. I don't know if the emperor will reward them." A mansion for the minister, so that the minister can have a place to settle down and live for a long time in the capital."

Hearing this, Emperor Wanli was very satisfied.

If Lin Pingzhi didn't want anything, he would be slightly wary of him.

But I heard that Lin Pingzhi asked him for a house, and not only for a house, but also for a mansion.With this insatiable appearance, it seems that he wants to live in the capital forever.

Emperor Wanli was quite happy about this.

After all, if such a person is easily released back into the arena, he will not let it go. If he protects other people in the future, then his emperor's head may move at any time.

So for a person like Lin Pingzhi, even if he doesn't need it, he has to keep it by his side to be at ease.

Although the emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Lord, he is only a relatively big "head". There is no harm in befriending people like Lin Pingzhi.

Emperor Wanli said at this time: "Okay! Now that Aiqing has spoken, I will give you another mansion. Qian Shangshu's whole family was confiscated because of his crime. His mansion is very spacious, and it is also far away from the palace. It's not very far. If there is anything to do in the palace, Aiqing can come here in no time. If Aiqing is not used to living in the palace, she can take my reward and live there."

Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi immediately bowed his head and thanked him.

"Thank you, Majesty Long En!" Then Lin Pingzhi raised his head and said, "It's just that I have an unfeeling request."

Emperor Wanli said: "I love you, but it's okay to talk about it."

Lin Pingzhi said: "Since the emperor has bestowed two beauties on my humble minister, the emperor is very grateful, but the wife is really difficult to deal with. I also ask the emperor to give me an imperial decree to bestow beauties. In this way, Even if my nephew asks, I can resist it. After all, not receiving the emperor's gift is to resist the order. As a loyal minister of Ming Dynasty, how can I do such a thing?"

Emperor Wanli said at this time: "Aiqing is really thoughtful. Alright! If that's the case, I will give you an imperial edict!"

As he said that, Emperor Wanli picked up the yellow silk and wrote an imperial decree with his own hand, and then stamped his own seal, and the little eunuch beside him handed it to Lin Pingzhi.

Seeing the imperial decree, Lin Pingzhi knelt down and thanked him.

The purpose of Lin Pingzhi's trip was for this imperial decree.With this imperial decree, it is not considered as giving someone a handle.

However, Lin Pingzhi was also a little bit chilled. He tried his best to help Emperor Wanli save his country, but he didn't expect that he was still not fully trusted by him in the end. He still used nephrite's tenderness to monitor him.

But Lin Pingzhi didn't complain at all, after all, his affairs are almost done now.Now my own proposal has been carried out. Although there are empress money as a disaster, there are good generals and military pay in Ming Dynasty.And because Nurhachi's preparations for hastily raised troops were insufficient.And they just reached a discordant alliance with the Mongols.

Today's Hou Jin poses no threat to Daming. As long as Emperor Wanli stabilizes his internal affairs within a year and a half, it will only take a short while to eliminate the barbarians outside the pass.

It didn't matter now whether he had his help or not.Now Lin Pingzhi only thinks about one thing, and that is Fu Ying's whereabouts.

As long as this matter is found out, he should also find a chance to "escape the golden cicada's shell" and "retire from his old age and return to his hometown".
