Chapter 139 I am five grades, you are six grades, you are fine, you are fine

In the Jixian Pavilion in the inner garden of Hanlin, the rain and dew bear the sky just a stone's throw away.

Being able to enter the Hanlin Academy is a matter of pride for scholars.

If there is another backer behind him, there is no need to say much about the generals and prime ministers in the future.

Every Hanlin bachelor is a proud and arrogant person.

They read the books of sages and taught the children of the royal family.

The one who is holding the post is Prince Jinxi, who was originally a scholar in Tianshe.

Until recently, there was a strange person who kept the style of coming here at the right time and leaving at the right time.

Other Hanlin bachelors, the lights are on at three o'clock and the chickens are on at five o'clock, and Yue Lin is sleeping at home.

It was when Hanlin was studying, Yue Lin was having breakfast at home.

"No wonder Yue Lin is looked down upon by Mr. Hu! It's really a shame for such a lazy person to be in the same room as us!"

"Ha! Look at the princes he teaches, they are all the most naughty Princes of Qin and Jin!"

"It's just a villain who succeeds! Mr. Hu may be dismissed from his position one day!"

All the Hanlin officials were whispering, and they all forgot about the sage's words of not talking about the rights and wrongs of others behind their backs, but sitting quietly and always thinking about their own mistakes.

Chen Ying, dressed in black, stepped forward. Now that he has been appreciated by Hu Weiyong, he can be said to be very proud of himself.

He was clearly a sixth-rank official, but the fifth-rank officials rushed to greet him.

"Brother Chen, how come you have time to come to the Hanlin Academy today?"

"I heard that my senior is training in the Ministry of Personnel. In the future, he will definitely be a minister!"

"What are you talking about? What are you talking about? From now on, the position of prime minister will be the end for my senior fellow!"

Chen Ying showed a proud look on her face when she heard that a group of Hanlin officials were praising her.

So what if you, Yue Lin, are a fifth-rank Hanlin?

Officials of the same rank as you do not want to salute me.

This is the difference between having a backer and not having a backer.

When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Chen Ying did not notice the contempt in the eyes of those Hanlins at all.

Even if a dog from the Prime Minister's Mansion came over, they would still compliment him like this.

"Where is Yue Hanlin? I heard that he is good at teaching, and he is highly praised by King Qin and King Jin."

Chen Ying suddenly mentioned Yue Lin. All the Hanlin officials were talented people, and she immediately understood the reason.

"Back to Senior Brother, Yue Lin hasn't come to the Hanlin Academy yet!"

"People always come here when they are already here! Unlike us, we have already come here to read books from saints and sages!"

"Alas! What a misfortune it is for us to be among such lazy people!"

Chen Ying sneered at the corner of her mouth: "Dear classmates, I came to the Hanlin Academy today because I have important matters to attend to."

"To be honest, in the name of the Prime Minister, I came to inspect whether the Hanlin bachelor is qualified for his job."

"When Yue Lin comes over, I hope you can tell the truth!"

Chen Ying is holding a chicken feather as an arrow, but with Hu Weiyong as a banner, who among the Hanlin officials would dare to offend him?

"Don't worry, Senior Brother! I've long been displeased with that guy Yue Lin!"

"That's right! When he comes here, we will definitely tell the truth!"

"Brother, this is for the good of our Hanlin Academy, to rectify that evil trend!"

Chen Ying nodded, very satisfied with the reaction of all the Hanlin officials.

A smart person will naturally choose the best backer, and Chen Ying is a master. With Hu Weiyong's appreciation, it will be easy for him to hold a high position in the future.

Far more promising than some Hanlin bachelor from Lao Shizi!

Now he serves in the Ministry of Personnel, the head of the six departments, and will later become the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. The appointment and dismissal of officials will still go through his hands.

"Brother! Yue Lin is here!"

"Ahem! Don't forget what you just asked!"

Yue Lin had experienced rebellion and came to Hanlin Academy leisurely.

Compared to the bustling Yingtian Mansion, he prefers the tranquility of Fengyang County.

Wuyi Lane is located on the bank of Qinhuai River, which is a feast for Yue Lin's eyes.

Early in the morning, when no one is around, there are always women who secretly come out to clean their dirty clothes.

When the romantic woman saw the man passing by, she didn't shy away at all and even gave Yue Hanlin a flirtatious look.

"If you are free, sir, don't forget to take care of our sisters!"

"Watching us clean our dirty clothes every day is a blessing."

After saying that, the girl lifted up her pants, revealing her fair thighs.

Old Yue Lin blushed and walked over quickly.

If it weren't for the comfortable living in Wuyi Lane, he would be really afraid that Zhu Silang and little Riley would learn bad things!

Refuse to be pornographic and refuse to gamble!

After reciting silently twice, Mr. Yue quickly stepped into the Hanlin Academy. Today he will give lectures to the two highnesses.

"Yue Lin, why are you late for no reason?"

Chen Ying's display of official power can be described as a fox pretending to be a tiger's power.

A group of Hanlin colleagues stood behind Chen Ying and looked at Yue Lin with a joking look on their faces.

"I wonder if this lord has any advice?"

"presumptuous!"

Before Yue Lin could speak, a Hanlin official shouted: "I, Huang Xiao, can't stand your attitude!"

"Brother Chen came to the Hanlin Academy despite his busy schedule, but you were late?"

"It's okay to arrive late on weekdays! You dare to neglect Senior Brother Chen from the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"

Yue Lin was a little confused. Huang Xiao was also a Hanlin bachelor and was responsible for teaching Zhu Zhu and Zhu Zhen.

"I wonder what position this gentleman holds?"

"I'm Chen Ying, the head of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"

Chen Ying was arrogant and looked even more arrogant when she said the word "official department".

The Ministry of Personnel is equivalent to today's Organization and Personnel Department. The inspection of officials is all in the hands of the Ministry of Personnel.

It's a pity that Chen Ying's official authority has encountered difficulties.

Yue Lin frowned and said, "Do you know what rank a Hanlin scholar is?"

Chen Ying sneered and said: "Fifth grade! Could it be that Mr. Yue has fallen asleep?"

Yue Lin was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a smile: "You are a sixth-rank official, questioning the fifth-rank Hanlin. You are disrespectful to the superior officials when you are a lower official!"

"According to my Ming law, we will fight for thirty to see the effects!"

It was an unwritten rule in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty that lower officials must salute their superiors when they see them.

Chen Ying's veins popped out, but she didn't expect that Yue Lin was still a tough guy!

"I am Hu Xiang's disciple..."

"I am at the fifth level and you are at the sixth level!"

"I am an official of the Ministry of Personnel..."

"I am at the fifth level and you are at the sixth level!"

"I...I have Hu Xiang's support..."

"I am at the fifth level and you are at the sixth level!"

No matter how the other party tries to quibble, Yue Lin always maintains his six-character mantra - I am at the fifth level and you are at the sixth level.

According to the rules, Chen Ying must salute the superior.

"What? Isn't it true that all the books of sages are read like a dog's belly?"

Yue Lin joked: "Okay! So it turns out that officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and disciples of Prime Minister Hu can go beyond the rules set by the emperor?"

After hearing what Yue Lin said, Chen Ying understood that if the quarrel continued, Hu Weiyong's reputation might be damaged.

He could only bow to Yue Lin reluctantly.

"Your Majesty, Chen Ying, pays homage to Yue Hanlin!"

Yue Lin didn't say anything and kept Chen Ying half-bowed.

"Everyone here is your superior. If you only salute me, won't you make other students lose face?"

As soon as Yue Lin said this, the officials blushed and waved their hands to refuse.

"Yue Hanlin doesn't have to be like this..."

"We are all informal people..."

"Yes, yes, we are all classmates, why should we be formal?"

Unexpectedly, Yue Lin chuckled and said: "The official department is the head of the six departments. If you don't even understand etiquette, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation."

"Master Chen, taste it carefully, I won't tell you what to do!"

Chen Ying gritted her teeth and greeted all the officials one after another.
