Chapter 951
The two went straight to the study room, and the butler brought tea, closed the door and left.
Lin Ran did not rush to pick up the teacup, but looked at the study room and found that there were really a lot of books here. On that bookshelf, there were a lot of ancient books neatly placed, and a stack of books were placed on the desk.
As far as he knows, this cheap father-in-law is a real book lover, and for this he also gave Wu Shan a lot of ancient books.
Wu Shan was a Tanhualang in the 14th year of Jiajing. He became an editor of the seventh-rank Hanlin Academy and was able to emerge from the Hanlin Academy, which gathered all the evil spirits in the world, which shows that he has outstanding features.
He received the most orthodox education and was trained by the court as a minister, so he naturally had the ability and talent to govern the country.
The reason why the Ming Dynasty required that the Hanlin people not enter the cabinet was that the substantive governance of the country was indeed a great task, and it was not possible to have this skill overnight. If a county magistrate was forcibly promoted to the position of chief minister, it would definitely not be able to handle national affairs effectively.
The former eunuch Liu Jin is a good example. At first, Liu Jin made a big profit, but later he wanted to do some good things for the country and the people, which actually harmed the interests of the people even more.
I have to admit that Wu Shan was born at the wrong time. If he met a more reliable emperor, with his moral character and official reputation, coupled with his years of accumulation in the Hanlin Academy and the Ministry of Rites, he would have been summoned to the cabinet and reused it.
But it was a Jiajing who did not play according to common sense and insisted on using a "treacherous minister" like Yan Song. Even if he summoned Yuan Wei, who was obsessed with Qing Ci, he would still exclude Wu Shan from the cabinet.
"Ruoyu, why are you so anxious to find me?"
Wu Shan took a sip of tea and asked slowly. Out of his importance to this disciple, after learning that Lin Ran had an urgent matter to consult him, he chose to go home and talk directly.
In Lin Ran's last plan, it was not only the Yan Dang and Xu Dang who were shocked, but also Wu Shan. After a seemingly controversial move, it was not until the truth came to light that everyone knew Lin Ran's true intentions.
Now Yin Tai serves as the chief examiner of the examination and has obtained a lot of political capital.
If there was no such political capital, I am afraid that Yin Tai would have to live in the position of Minister of Rites in Nanjing until his retirement. But with this political capital, Yin Tai might not be unable to return to the capital in time, and could even join the cabinet and become the prime minister.
It can be said that Lin Ran's outstanding operation has saved Yin Tai's political life.
Lin Ran's heart moved. He took out the bronze sword chrome text from the morning that Sun Jixiang asked someone to translate, spread it on the table, and said respectfully: "Teacher, this is the chrome text of a bronze sword, please read it!"
Wu Shan looked up at Lin Ran and frowned slightly. He thought this kid was in a hurry to find him for a very important matter, so he put down his official duties in the yamen and went home, but unexpectedly he just wanted to make the chrome text of a bronze sword.
Out of his hobbies and the need to study ancient books, he did have high attainments in ancient Chinese, but letting his dignified Minister of Rites translate a chrome text of a bronze sword undoubtedly cost him his value.
Wu Shan was not the kind of person with a hot temper, so he didn't choose to have an attack. Instead, he looked at the chrome font on the paper, but then he looked at the face with a rare look of shock. He raised his head and stared in surprise and said, "Chehong's sword?"
Because he was familiar with history, he naturally knew this person. But he never expected that there would be objects from Chang Hong that would be passed down, as if the bronze sword was of good quality.
Lin Ran looked at Wu Shan giving this answer, knowing that the origin of this bronze sword must be correct. The hanging heart was completely relieved, revealing his white teeth and answered with certainty: "That's right!"
"How did you get it? It's not a imitation, right?" Wu Shan silently put away the surprise and asked curiously.
Lin Ran would not hide it, but just told all the things about that day. It was precisely because of this sword that he had a conflict with Mr. Gao, which eventually turned into the last big storm.
When Wu Shan heard that the bronze sword was found from scrap iron, he shook his head with a wry smile and silently picked up the teacup on the table. The two brothers and sisters were really lucky.
"I have sent someone to find Hu Niu just now, so I will send this sword to the teacher tonight!" Lin Ran looked at Wu Shan with a smile and said with a decision.
Previously, he asked Huang Dafu to find a rare treasure that could impress Jiajing, but it was not for him, but for him to give it to Wu Shan to the emperor, so as to push Wu Shan into the cabinet.
I believe that with such a treasure to Jiajing, according to Jiajing's "kind" character, Wu Shan will not have any resistance to entering the cabinet, and everything will be a natural thing.
Once Wu Shan successfully enters the cabinet, their strength will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced, and they can even form the Wu Party and follow the Yan Party and Xu Party to compete in this Beijing-Cha New Year.
As for Yan Shifan who wants to bully the United Commercial Group, he may have to weigh his own weight, at least he dare not speak out loud.
Wu Shan took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and then nodded slowly and said, "Okay! This sword of Chang Hong is really rare, and I want to take a look at it!"
"Teacher, the student wants to give it to you, and the teacher will present it to Your Majesty!" Lin Ran didn't know whether Wu Shan really didn't understand or deliberately grasped his posture, and immediately said with a smile.
Wu Shan was slightly stunned and raised his head and looked at Lin Ran.
Lin Ran had already had a spear at the matter and seemed confident and smiled: "Teacher, after you submit this sword to the emperor, there is no need to say much. The emperor will definitely arrange for you to enter the cabinet!"
In April, Wushan served as the Minister of Rites for six years, and this qualification was far enough. In recent years, calls for Wushan to enter the pavilion have been rising one after another.
After Lu Ben returned to his hometown to observe the system last year, Wu Shan should have entered the cabinet naturally. It was only because he was suspected of fraud in the Guangdong provincial examination, so the court recommendation was abolished. Jiajing instead directly summoned Yuan Wei, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, into the cabinet.
Jiajing was naturally a smart person. Wu Shan gave him such a treasure at the moment, and Wu Shan's qualifications were far enough to enter the cabinet. As a "reward" for Wu Shan, it was natural to hold a postponement, or to directly summon Wu Shan to enter the cabinet.
Wu Shan suddenly put down the teacup, looking shocking and asked: "Do you want to be a slander for your teacher?"
ah?
Lin Ran, who was in a beautiful fantasy, listened to this question, looked up at Wu Shan's angry face, his mouth slightly opened, and his whole body was immediately struck by lightning.
He, Suanzi, made many calculations, but it seemed that he had done less.
