Chapter 984 Wang Honghai's stubbornness
"Take him down!"
Lin Haoran raised his hand and asked the two detectives to escort Wang Kuan to the cell.
Huniu watched the people being taken away, but she became interested and asked seriously: "Brother, what do the intermediaries do? Are they very powerful?"
"I only know that they are very dangerous!" Lin Haoran looked at this wild girl who was about to make a move, and immediately replied with a straight face and angrily.
Huniu frowned slightly and immediately complained: "Oh, I just asked you what the interrogators do and whether they are powerful. Why are you telling me they are dangerous?"
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking! If you're really that bored, just go back to Guangdong and don't think about running to the north!" Lin Haoran continued to warn him seriously with a straight face.
Due to the sudden appearance of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", it triggered a martial arts craze. Not only ordinary scholars were affected, but also the hot girl Huniu, who was already clamoring to defend her family and country.
"I won't go anywhere until the case of Zeng Aniu and the others is settled!" Huniu raised her face and walked towards the bamboo chair that belonged to her in the rest room.
Lin Haoran looked at this sister helplessly. Although she was not very old, she was more persistent than most people in doing things. She had a very clear concept of good and evil. She is still staring at those two cases.
A scribe was called in and sent directly to the Ministry of War to verify Wang Kuan's identity.
Wang Kuan is naturally an insignificant person, but the placement of these people will undoubtedly affect the enthusiasm of the spy group and is related to the work of Ming's intelligence system.
If one day in the future he serves as the governor of Xuanda, or even presides over the war with Mongolia, this intelligence work must be done well. If the intelligence work is done well, many things can be done with half the effort.
In this officialdom, although he is still far from power, he has begun to consider safeguarding the interests of this large group. Today's Ming Dynasty is not only the world of the Zhu family, but also the world of their scholar-bureaucrats, and even more... the world.
The world of the common people.
oh……
Huniu didn't have too complicated thoughts. She lay on the bamboo chair and felt sleepy. She gave a big yawn, curled up on the bamboo chair, and fell asleep in a moment.
Lin Haoran put down his official duties, came to the bamboo chair, and looked at Huniu, who was sleeping soundly. Huniu's eyelashes were very long, her cute little nose was breathing slightly, and she looked like a porcelain sister.
He gently helped Hu Niu cover the blanket, fearing that the swallows nesting outside would disturb the wild girl, he closed the doors and windows tightly, and then returned to his desk to continue handling daily affairs.
Hu Niu was not honest in her sleep. She kicked the blanket lightly, and her whole body fell into another time and space. In her dream, she returned to the place where she was born and raised, and became the playful cowherd boy.
This night, she slept very comfortably, dreaming about the old Changlin Village, dreaming about her brother chopping firewood on Crouching Mountain, dreaming about her big bluestone waiting for her brother to come back after getting the honors, and dreaming about her following a group of friends in the creek.
While fishing.
Only when I was half asleep, I was woken up by my brother's voice.
Huniu stretched her body first, then looked over after hearing the voice, only to see her brother sitting in front of the case, and the young man standing neatly in front of him was Wang Honghai.
Lin Haoran faced this proud disciple and said in a very stern tone: "This is not something you can do willfully! If you still want to make a difference in the officialdom and do more for the people, then you have to
Follow this set of rules!"
Lin Haoran selected Wang Honghai, who was only 19 years old, as Guangdong Jieyuan last year. This undoubtedly put him under a lot of public pressure, and some people even planned to use Wang Honghai's failure to attack him.
As a result, Wang Honghai lived up to his high expectations. Not only did he not fail in the general examination, but he passed the examination and passed the tenth place. This result is the best among the new subjects in the two capitals and thirteen provinces, and he can undoubtedly explain it to the world.
Lin Haoran even gained the reputation of having a sharp eye and recognizing talents.
If Wang Honghai can maintain such good results in the next palace examination, he will have the opportunity to enter the Hanlin Academy as a Shujishi, and his future will be bright.
It's just that being young is a good thing, but sometimes it can be a bad thing.
According to the current unspoken rules of official circles, the three hundred students from the Advanced Examination High School will go to Yin Tai the next day to obediently hand over their disciples' thorns, thereby forging a teacher-student relationship between the two parties.
However, it has been several days since the announcement of the list of candidates for the joint examination, but there has been no movement from Wang Honghai. So far, he has not gone to visit Yin Tai, nor has he obediently sent his disciples to him. This kind of action is undoubtedly a sign of officialdom.
Not tolerated.
When Lin Haoran learned about this, he immediately called Wang Honghai to him and reprimanded him.
"He is my master, not my teacher!" Wang Honghai reiterated in a low voice, lowering his head and looking at his toes.
There is indeed some embarrassment on this issue. Lin Haoran is Yin Tai's disciple, and Wang Honghai is Lin Haoran's disciple, so Yin Tai is naturally Wang Honghai's master.
"You have now stepped into the official career, and you are considered to be half of the officialdom, so you can't be so impulsive! I have already compiled a letter to plead for you. You can take it with me tomorrow morning and take the initiative to recognize me.
Wrong!" Lin Haoran's anger subsided a little and he handed over a letter.
"Teacher, is it really not okay for me to just be his disciple?" Wang Honghai reached out and took the letter, but still asked with some hope.
Lin Haoran sighed softly. He had never wanted to recognize Wu Shan, a teacher with no future, but the rules of the officialdom game were like this, so he shook his head seriously and said: "No! This is the rule of the officialdom, and this rule is firm.
It’s so breakable!”
The beneficiaries of this rule are the cabinet ministers, the Minister of Rites and other big shots, and they have the support of the Hanlin Academy. It is a system that is almost impossible to overturn. Neither Yan Song nor Xu Jie will stand up to oppose this system.
.
In fact, Xu Jie is the biggest beneficiary of this rule.
Not only did he arrange for his disciple Zang Jifang to serve as the prefect of Songjiang to protect the interests of his hometown, he also arranged for many of his disciples to enter the Yanguan system, which became his weapon to attack Yan Song.
Whether they like it or not, these rookies who have just entered the officialdom can only accept the arrangement of fate and attach themselves to a certain big boss.
This session was pretty good, but sometimes in order to balance the interests of all parties, the parties would choose a marginal figure from Nanjing to serve. For example, the examiner of the previous session was Li Ji, the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs in Nanjing, who was nearly 20 years old at the time.
Eighty.
But we have to admit that it was this seemingly reasonable official rule that intensified party strife in the late Ming Dynasty, and many resources and talents were destroyed by this internal friction.
"Students take orders!" Wang Honghai was given a political lesson, and he accepted his fate with disappointment and said with a hand.
"Go down!" Lin Haoran saw that he had figured it out, and then he raised his hand calmly and said.
Wang Honghai withdrew, but did not stay in the office outside. Instead, he left Shuntian Mansion directly.
At the moment, he is no longer working at the "Sunchon Ilbo" because he has to deal with the last imperial examination, so he has been sent home by Lin Haoran to study. However, he did not return to the Guangdong Association, but stayed in a nearby house.
