Xu Wei is an old man, born from a concubine. His father died a hundred days after he was born. His mother was kicked out of the house by his wife, Mrs. Miao, when he was ten years old. As a result, he did not receive much love from his parents since he was a child.

.

Fortunately, he was talented and intelligent. He was reading at the age of six and could compose at the age of nine. When he was more than ten years old, he imitated Yang Xiong's "Jie Moo" and wrote "Shi Rui". He was famous far and wide. The local gentlemen called him a child prodigy.

On the threshold of the provincial examination, he also had to go through many twists and turns before he was able to pass the top grade and became an editor of the Hanlin Academy of the Ming Dynasty. He is now one of the deputy editors of "Talking about the past and the present".

Like many famous talents, Xu Wei had a wide range of interests and was able to achieve something. He was also quite accomplished in drama. He adopted the style of the north and the south and created many operas.

Likewise, when Lin Haoran invited him to come over to watch operas and listen to music, he came happily, and was quickly attracted by the wonderful programs on stage.

"Chen Pingfeng, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, is a foreign minister. This is an article about craftsmanship written by me. I would like to ask Uncle Shao Zong to comment on it!"

"Liu Sankang, a member of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, is a foreign minister. This is a contemporary article written by me. I would like to ask Uncle Shao Zong to comment on it!"

"I'll give it to Chen Miao from the official and military department. This is the "Government Policy" written by me. I'd like to ask Uncle Shao Zong to read it!"

…

Wei Shangchun seemed to have great admiration for Lin Haoran, and was asking Lin Haoran for advice on how to manage Shuntian Mansion. As a result, several officials came over one after another with manuscripts, and handed them over with a low attitude like a student facing a teacher.

Lin Haoran did not put on airs, but smiled and reached out to take the manuscripts from these officials, but asked them to go back first, and continued to follow Wei Yingchun to exchange some experiences on the management of Shuntian Mansion.

Wei Yingchun was secretly surprised and found that it was never a fluke for this young man to be appointed as the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. He could see all the shortcomings in the promotion at a glance, and he sincerely sighed: "It is true, this promotion is both

It is really not a long-term solution to increase the burden on the people and provide space for officials to be corrupt!"

Lin Haoran shook his head bitterly. Although he had pointed out to the court when he was in office that "raising the quota is more important than the two taxes," he had made the court restrain it, but it was far from eradicating it.

"Brother Wen, how about you help me control my eyes?"

Lin Haoran handed the manuscript he had just received to Xu Wei on the other side with a genuine smile. He knew that even if he had greater literary attainments, he could not compare to Xu Wenchang, who was praised by later generations as one of the "Three Talents of the Ming Dynasty".

Xu Wei followed Lin Haoran but was not polite. He opened the manuscripts and soon let out a cold snort.

However, this cold snort can obviously still be heard in some ways. For example, the cold snort of Liu Sankan, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry, is obviously much weaker, and it has been written in such a way that it can barely catch his eye.

Lin Haoran allowed Xu Wei to snort beside him, while he continued chatting with Wei Shangchun calmly, while watching the drama in the audience from time to time.

Xu Wei quickly read through several manuscripts, but shook his head gently and said: "There are really a lot of fools in this world. This scholar is just clamoring to eliminate the clan Lumi. He is not even a commentator."

Discover the mystery within it!”

"Brother Wen, what do you think we should think about it?" Lin Haoran looked at the "Government Policy" in his hand and asked calmly while holding a tea cup.

Xu Wei was not an outspoken person, especially after seeing the downfall of his old employer Hu Zongxian, he acted more cautiously. He dipped his hand into the tea cup and wrote two words on the table: "Sacred Heart".

"In your opinion, what about... now?" Lin Haoran looked at the two words on the table when he paused, not intending to let others know what they were talking about.

Xu Wei sighed secretly, shook his head gently and said: "Judging from the current situation, I am not optimistic! I'm afraid you, senior brother, can't do this. If you are in charge, the resistance will only be greater."

It's okay in the local area, but now that you are in the capital, many people will not watch you continue to be so prosperous!"

Lin Haoran took a sip of tea and knew that Xu Wei was telling the truth.

Working in the capital is not as good as in the local area. In Guangdong and Yangzhou, he can make decisions with one word, but here in the capital, many people will inevitably jump out and cause trouble.

In particular, he is already outstanding enough in presiding over the sea and salt affairs, and even cannot compare with the current chief minister Xu Jie. If he still wants to accuse Zongfan Lumi's achievements, not to mention Xu Jie's side, many court officials

No one wants to see him succeed.

Lin Haoran put down the tea cup, but said sincerely: "This matter must be done eventually, otherwise the Ming Dynasty... the people will be in trouble!"

In the end, he had to change a word, but the meaning was already conveyed to the clever Xu Wei.

Xu Wei also nodded lightly, but raised his head and said firmly: "Just like senior brother, we can only wait. The time has not come yet, so this matter cannot be done!"

Lin Haoran gave a knowing look, but changed the topic and said: "You should make preparations, you should go to Guangdong!"

Xu Wei was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said: "This matter... I'm afraid it will get you into a lot of trouble!"

"I know, but only if you go, this pair of Guangdong scholars will be the best, and they will be able to bring prosperity to Guangdong!" Lin Haoran nodded, but said without hesitation.

Xu Wei was slightly moved in his heart, and he raised his hands to Lin Haoran and said: "I sincerely accept the trust of senior brother, and I will definitely live up to his expectations!"

At this time, Lin Haoran was suddenly attracted by a child on the stage. He only heard her shout: "I was born in Changlin Village and grew up in the No. 1 scholar's family. Don't look at my young age. I can kill tigers at the age of three. Today

With the sword in hand, thieves from far away will flee..."

As this new drama began, Lin Haoran was immediately attracted to the stage, with a knowing smile on his face. Someone actually put Huniu's deeds on the stage.

Member Sun had been paying attention to Lin Haoran's reaction. When he saw Lin Haoran watching with gusto, he gave a thumbs up to Li Yunhu who was sitting next to him.

Li Yunhu seemed to be confident about this, but he raised his chin proudly.

As the night progressed, only the lights were left at the lantern festival outside, and no one was seen, and all the officials left one after another.

Lin Haoran did not return to the south of the city, but took Hua Yingrong back to his house in the north of the city.

Hua Yingrong sat in front of the bronze mirror and took off the jewelry on her head. She asked the doubts that had been hidden in her stomach all night: "Why are there so many officials from the Sixth Ministry tonight sending you crafts for comment?"

Lin Haoran, who was lying on the bed, hooked his fingers at Hua Yingrong and asked her to come to the bed first. After holding the beauty in his arms, he explained to her: "Because they are all open-minded and studious, and they want to learn from others."

Isn’t it normal for me to ask for advice?”
