Zhang Haoran stood up: "It seems that the Zhuang Yuan Gong is treated differently. He grabbed my grandfather to talk about something when he entered the door and made us wait for a long time..."

What? The champion?

The plate in the girl's hand almost overturned...

"I was being questioned by the adults, and I was so nervous that my back was sweating. You didn't help me draw firepower from the side, so you still have the nerve to drink here?"

"Come on! I don't know about you? Who have you ever seen get nervous? It's good if you don't make my grandpa nervous..." Zhang Haoran said: "Come on, we are discussing your "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", there is such a sentence in it

'Poor Yue wandering upstairs, should be illuminated by Li Ren's makeup.' Who is this 'Li Ren'? Aren't the beauties you admire always making beds beside you and wrapping around your knees? Who has left you? Tell me..."

"Speaking of your sister..." Lin Su is annoyed by this. No matter what poem he writes, someone will always grab specific words in it to analyze. Who is this talking about? You need to know that the poems copied are all afraid of this.

…

Lin Su stepped into the pavilion and suddenly felt that the surroundings were very quiet, and everyone's expressions were strange...

"Really my sister?" Zhang Haoran's eyes were bright.

c! Lin Su suddenly discovered that sometimes the mantras in modern society really cannot be used casually.

Especially when facing Zhang Haoran.

Because he really has a sister...

He was very reserved in the conversation that followed, because he knew that although he still couldn't see Zhang Yiyu, Zhang Xiaoniangpi must be invisible and staring at him, as evidenced by the tightness in his back...

Li Xiaotian smiled slightly and changed the topic, Brother Lin, have you ever thought about whether to stay in Beijing or leave Beijing in the future?

Stay in Beijing and become a capital official, leave Beijing and become a local official.

Under normal circumstances, no one would choose to be a local official. The local official is too hard and the promotion is slow. How can he be as noble as a Beijing official? Under the eyes of the emperor, he will fly upward on a rocket as soon as he gets the chance.

However, things are not absolute. Sometimes, external employment can lead to faster promotion because there are tangible achievements to support it.

Therefore, the conventional rule of being an official is: those who have little ability want to be an official in the capital, while those who are capable hope to go out to the capital to do something good.

Lin Su is the capable kind.

Huo Qixian answered: Brother Lin should naturally be a Beijing official, the number one scholar in the past, and most likely an editor at the Hanlin Academy. The lowest level should be an editor. That is fifth rank. What should I do if I go to the local level? I just want to be a prefect because I don't have the qualifications.

, being a county magistrate is too humiliating.

Zhang Haoran said, you only consider whether it is better for him to be a capital official or a local official, but you have forgotten an iron rule of officialdom, which is that no one in the court should be an official. If he is really put in a local place, maybe no one will mention him at all.

In this life, he will only be the No. 1 county magistrate or the No. 1 prefect.

Lin Su smiled. You said they didn't consider this point, and you didn't consider the other point either.

What?

The iron law of officialdom is that no one in the court should be an official. There is also an iron law of officialdom. If you offend the emperor, you don't have to think about doing anything in the officialdom.

Several people's expressions became calm at the same time.

You have offended the emperor, and you still want to be an official? Of course, the title of Zhuangyuanlang is there, and the emperor cannot not give you an official, otherwise it will be a slap in the face of the temple, but giving you an official, is it the same as using you?

?Let you have a position and be idle for the rest of your life. This is almost an inevitable trend.

Lin Su looked at their faces and smiled slightly, "What expressions are you looking at? Are you worried that I won't be able to get a good official position? Haha, literature is just a ladder for me. I really haven't thought about becoming one."

Official, all your Majesty can give me is a sinecure, and what I need is exactly a sinecure.

Li Yangxin raised his glass: "Actually, I also know that this will be the case, and I can understand Brother Lin's free and easy attitude, but I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart."

"The people are living in difficulty, but the officials are pursuing their own selfish interests, fighting against each other, and ignoring morality..."

Li Xiaotian also drank a glass of wine: "Disregarding morality and justice is second to none, and ignoring the crisis of the country is a serious danger. Everyone knows about the ambition of the slaves in the wilderness, but can't the courtiers see it? No, they can see it clearly! It's just the crisis in the north.

What does it have to do with him? Even if the north falls, even if the country falls, they are just changing their masters and remaining loyal!"

After drinking strong alcohol, Li Xiaotian's eyes felt heavy with pain.

Lin Su raised his glass: "Brother Li, what do you want to do?"

"Iron-blooded on the battlefield, kill millions of enemies!"

Everyone was shocked.

In this world, culture is valued more than martial arts. How many people dream of entering the literary world? It took the Qu family a full hundred years to successfully transform from martial arts to the literary world.

Li Xiaotian, the seventh-ranked Jinshi in high school, actually thought of abandoning literature and joining martial arts.

"Are you serious?" Lin Su said.

"Brother Lin, you have also experienced the pain of losing your father. You should be able to understand... what it feels like...three hundred and seventy relatives died in the rebellion, and I watched helplessly. From that day on,

The only purpose of my existence, Li Xiaotian, is to become the nightmare of the Osumi military! To become the life-killer of the desert slaves! In three days, I will submit a letter to His Majesty and take the initiative to serve in the northern border town."

It is not impossible for literati to take up military positions. As long as you are willing, the emperor can't ask for it. The combat power of literati Jinshi is much stronger than that of military generals, but generally literati Jinshi are not willing to serve as military generals.

Other court officials don't care much about the border war situation. His Majesty the Emperor cannot care about the alien invasion and the country's destruction. Other court officials can change their masters. How can he change his master if he is the emperor? Therefore, the emperor sincerely hopes that the country will be safe.

Lin Su stood up and clinked glasses with him: "Brother Li, I understand your decision and I respect your decision. In time, I will give you something!"

Li Xiaotian said: "Brother Lin, what do you want to give me? By the white clouds? Spring tears will be avoided. There is no need for this in the bitter and cold borderland."

Lin Su smiled: "I'm not ready for this kind of thing yet, so I'll give it a try first. Maybe in two years, maybe in three years, I will deliver it to you!"

Li Xiaotian laughed loudly, Brother Lin, you want me to keep something to look forward to at the border. I accepted the love and the gift. I respect you for this glass of wine! To tell you the truth, before coming to Beijing, I

Da Cang Wendao almost lost confidence, but your appearance made me see a different light.

After three glasses of wine, we cherish each other.

Don't go to Xiyuan, it's getting late.

When Jinshi enters the officialdom, it is customary to visit the courtiers. After all, they will be their subordinates in the future and they should also visit. However, Lin Su only visited one person, Zhang Juzheng. The rest of the people were ignored, including Prime Minister Lu Tiancong.

, he has never even checked in.

This made Zhang Juzheng feel somewhat proud for no reason in his conflicted heart.

Look, I'm the only one who's the top scholar today. I'm not a failure in my job.

But soon, another feeling emerged in my mind, did this kid give me eye drops? You didn't visit anyone else, but only visited me. Why do I feel that the look in my eyes like Lao Zhang and Lao Zhao is wrong?

Lu Tiancong actually had some tangles.

It can also be said that he has been very troubled since the No. 1 pick was selected.

The number one scholar only started from the fifth rank or even the fifth rank as an official. It was just a small position for him, but the stamina of the number one scholar and the potential of the number one scholar no one could tell. Even if His Majesty deliberately suppressed it, it would not be possible.

A person can determine his future because there is a temple. What if the temple takes a fancy to him? He can reach heaven anytime, anywhere.

Moreover, the possibility that the temple would like him was very high. The way the watchman at the Confucian Temple looked at him was wrong!

Do you want to take a risk?

Did he really make the move planned by Lao Ba - marry his granddaughter Lu Youwei to him?

However, this impulse was quickly suppressed by him. It was His Majesty who Lin Su offended. How could he be an enemy of His Majesty? The favor of the temple was just a possibility, but Your Majesty was a big mountain in front of him. For

It would be foolish to lose His Majesty's trust if an opportunity arises.

Therefore, he promptly informed his housekeeper, Lao Ba, that Mr. Lin’s visit would not be seen at all.

On the first day, Lao Ba reported that Lin Su visited Green Willow Villa and came back after dark. It was impossible to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion today.

The next day, Lao Ba waited all day and came to report in the evening: Mr. Xiang, the two brothers of the Lin family didn't come. They didn't go out today. They were drinking, singing and playing pipa at Yixian Yuan in Qufu...

Lu Tian didn't know how he felt in his heart.

Why don't you come to visit me, the leader of hundreds of officials?

It's one thing if you come but I don't see you, it's another thing if you don't come at all...

"Oh, by the way, Lin Su sent someone over..."

Huh? Lu Tiancong immediately became energetic: "What to do?"

"It was a girl who brought the book that the young lady asked for. It was "Dream of Red Mansions". It is said that it was written by Lin Su himself."

Son of a bitch!

Lu Tiancong was furious. You didn't come to visit me yourself, but you didn't forget to seduce my granddaughter. You took all the benefits by yourself. How could it be so...

Tomorrow is the Jinshi Banquet, I want you to look good!

Lu Tiancong thought about it fiercely for a long time, and suddenly realized that he actually had no way to deal with him. You can't openly accuse Lin Su just because he didn't come to visit you, right?

And if you use other insidious methods to deal with him, won't you turn yourself into a character like Zhang Wenyuan or Zhao Xun? That will lower your own grade...

Lin Su has returned to Yixianyuan. Every time he enters or leaves Yixianyuan, he regards it as a vegetable garden gate. However, the mentality of the Qu family has long since changed and they completely ignore these. No matter how many times he has been in and out, he can still be here.

You are lucky to stay even one night.

Zhuangyuanlang, this Yixianyuan will have to be renamed "Zhuangyuanyuan" from now on.

The Qu family has been in a state of tension since the Lin brothers came to Beijing. If Qu Wendong had a heart disease, he would have been sick long ago.

Why?

What I experienced was really exciting.
