Chapter 165 The first editor-in-chief was named Fan Jin. Ke Han smiled innocently and did not answer the emperor’s questions directly.
"Forget it!" The emperor smiled magnanimously and said, "Shi Aiqing, tell me, what is it that is so mysterious and difficult?"
"Xiaguan boldly begged the Holy One to unravel the mystery of two young people who fell in love at first sight, and to complete an important role change in Dongfang Gongzi's life before he was about to take office as Jiedushi. And this, for him and the girl he fell in love with at first sight,
For me, it will be extremely sacred and will be unforgettable for life!" Ke Han was still laughing, and even said more and more, "Not everyone can do it well, Old Man Yuexia! He can be loved by the saints, and his temperance makes you great.
Enthusiasm for work will surely soar as never before! And this is of far-reaching significance to the still unstable frontier of the Western Region!..."
The emperor stood up from the chair again. With a tigerish face and his hands behind his back, he walked around Dongfang Xiao, who was silent, and walked twice. He wanted to know Dongfang Xiao's own thoughts. This kind of thing must be done
It is up to the parties themselves to apply!
When Dongfang Xiao heard Ke Han begging the emperor for help with his matter, he was a little confused for a moment. Just when he didn't know what to do, after the emperor's wandering around, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Dongfang Xiao!" Suddenly, the emperor asked, "I asked you to guard the border of the Western Region, do you have any complaints?"
"The Holy One is aware of the situation and protects the family and the country. Dongfang has no complaints!" Dongfang Xiao replied without thinking.
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself: If he is really a character who is not good at fighting for himself, then don't expect him to apply for my assistance. It is enough to have a small county magistrate to intercede on his behalf.
Dongfang Xiao couldn't figure out what the emperor meant. He was nervous when he heard the emperor say to the people next to him: "Prepare the chariot and leave the palace!"
Ke Han quickly approached Dongfang Xiao, pulled him to bow and thank him, and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
…
With the emperor as a mediator, Tang Langzhong felt more dignified. What's more, the so-called hairy son-in-law turned out to be the new governor of the Western Regions. He was outstanding in character, talent and learning, and was deeply favored by the emperor. For his family of doctors, he was already the ancestral grave.
Wormwood appears, a big turnaround
A few days later, Dongfang Xiao said goodbye to his bride and father-in-law, and went to the Western Regions alone to take up his post. Before that, the emperor had rewarded Tang Langzhong with no less than ten thousand taels of silver dollars, so that Tang Langzhong's drugstore could be renovated, and he also gave the old man a handwritten plaque.
Tang Dynasty, so the old Tang Dynasty, who was originally quite famous, received a plaque personally written by the emperor, and his reputation spread far and wide, and his career became even more brilliant.
Ke Han rested in Kyoto for a few days and was eager to go back. However, the emperor agreed that he would help organize the newspaper, so the matter of recruiting talents naturally fell on him.
He agreed with the emperor and went down to handle the affairs of the newspaper. The selection of the first editor-in-chief was a top priority. Moreover, the recruitment mode could not be carried out directly in the scientific examination. So, early the next morning, Ke Han said goodbye to Kyoto and followed his arrival.
We returned to the countryside by our original route.
He was convinced that there were many masters among the hermits in the countryside, and among them, there must be masters of writing! Of course, Ke Han also had another important thing to do. He wanted to see the Ding who was recommended by him to do research at Agui at Dongpo Wanbao Equipment Factory.
What's going on with Xu now? You have to care about him! After all, it's still your own arsenal, and his development is very important. No matter what, you have to take a look.
When he was approaching Dongpo, on a small street, Ke Han tied up his horse and went to a small teahouse along the street. He ordered a bowl of tea and was about to drink it when he heard a harsh sound of "哐, 哐, 哐".
gong sound
Following the sound of the gong, I saw two government servants holding the gong and beating it vigorously, while others on horseback rushed towards a house on the east end of the street, shouting at the top of their lungs, "Good news!
Master Fan has been hit, please get out of the way!"
Passers-by started talking one after another: "How rare and glorious it is? How proud of your ancestors!"
Ke Han was surprised and wanted to watch the excitement
Just as I turned into the alley at the east end of the street, I happened to bump into a person walking sideways with a swollen belly.
The man was shirtless and wearing an apron, looking very funny
"Hey, Dad Hu, it's just noon, where are you going?" A woman who also wanted to see something strange walked over and asked the passerby
"Dad Hu, is he the Hu butcher mentioned in the book?" After hearing this, Ke Han thought to himself.
I saw the man picking his teeth with the long nail of the little finger of his left hand, and holding a bag in his right hand. It must be quite heavy, and it must be the six taels of silver that Fan Jin gave him. Seeing this, Ke Han said to himself
Smiling secretly
"My son-in-law Fan Jin won the exam and ranked seventh in the provincial examination! I just received the good news today and invited me to have a drink with him. It's a pity that the amount for the exam was small, so I drank alone. It was really boring, so I left." Hu
The butcher seemed to be perfunctory. As he talked, he moved and hurriedly buckled the robe around his waist, as if he was afraid that someone would take it away.
"That's it, Father Hu, please go all the way!" The woman didn't say much. When Butcher Hu walked far away, she even spat at Butcher Hu's back.
She also despised the butcher? But it made Ke Han look at this strange woman with admiration.
It is said in the book that the Hu butcher was really snobbish. I remember that before Fan Jin was going to take the provincial examination, when he hurriedly borrowed money from him because he had no money, he scolded him severely and he refused to take out any money.
Now, when the son-in-law won the imperial examination, he was so embarrassed that he even took the gift money given to Fan Jin by others. After having a good meal and wine, he left alone. It was shameless! Even the title he gave to Fan Jin changed accordingly.
Yes, I felt like I had goosebumps, and I was trembling all over.
Ke Han knew what happened a long time ago. After all, he had studied "Fan Jin's Successful Examination"! Therefore, when he saw Butcher Hu's dignified appearance, he also looked down on Butcher Hu from the bottom of his heart.
Unexpectedly, I was allowed to watch a live broadcast now. It was so strange that I felt proud secretly: My classmates, you are so envious!
Before I could even calculate the distance, I had already arrived at Fan Jin’s home.
There were many people gathered outside the dilapidated thatched hut. Everyone was smiling and chattering lively! Despite this, one could still hear Mrs. Fan Hu constantly saying nice things to Fan Jin, with a lot of grievance and submission in her tone.
"My father is not that kind of person. He always has your best interests in mind! If he hadn't come here today, no one would have been able to fix this misfortune!" Fan Hu's voice was too loud, but
Still talking about Fan Jin going crazy, it’s really surprising!
"Who says it's not? After receiving this slap, it made me sober up a lot! However, my old father-in-law twisted his hand, does it really become my fault again? If it weren't for the protection of 'Wenquxing',
I'm afraid I've met the King of Hell a long time ago! It's true. However, I really didn't feel any pain at all. Do you think it's weird?!" Fan Jin said with a smile. Although he could see a lump at the corner of his mouth, he still said it didn't hurt. God knows.
for what
Fan Hu was speechless and went into the kitchen to accompany Fan's mother to wash up, leaving Fan Jin sitting quietly at the dinner table.
Suddenly, an old man emerged from the crowd at the door. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "I heard that Uncle Fan won the election, old man, I'm here to congratulate you!"
Hearing the sound in the room, Fan Jin hurriedly bowed to welcome him out, reproaching him repeatedly: "Why are you here? You don't respect your old friend? Don't worry about the talent show, aren't we still brothers?
Brother Liu's words are a bit out of line. You should just laugh at me for coming here. Please forgive me for being negligent and don't keep it in your heart!"
Fan Jin spoke a little out of order, but he was still very humble.
After such exchanges, they really put their arms around each other like brothers, and walked into the main room with a smile.
The people watching the excitement were very surprised. Some people smacked their lips and whispered: "What a world! The former enemies are closer than our neighbors! Tsk tsk!"
When the old man entered the house and saw Mrs. Fan, there was inevitably another round of greetings.
Fan Jin narrowed his eyes and was very happy. He immediately called Fan Hu out and said he wanted to reward him with a gift. However, the old man named Liu stopped him and with a blushing face, he handed Fan Jin a red envelope.
Ke Han wanted to laugh again, and murmured in his heart: This Fan Jin is so pedantic! He is too poor to open the door, and he still needs to use the gift money from others to support this leaky door?
From the conversation between Old Man Liu and Fan Jin, we learned that the two of them were both teachers at the school. They often secretly competed with each other in order to win students, and even tried to undermine each other.
, but it was actually a little higher. Old Man Liu was just a "linsheng" who was given food by the imperial court on a monthly basis.
, the county pays students money and living allowances on time) Fan Jin has already passed the provincial examination. The good news stated that he was the seventh Asian Yuan in the provincial examination, and the Beijing News even listed Huang A! In this way, it is really different.
That’s right!
"Squire Zhang just gave me fifty taels of silver, and he also left a message asking someone to clean his spare house on Dongmen Street not far from here, and help me move it someday. He said it would be nice to have someone to ask for advice! I
So I was wondering privately, how could I have such deep love if I don't have any friendship on weekdays?" Fan Jin said proudly.
It’s really no wonder. He was just like Old Man Liu, and his income from teaching was not too low, but he couldn’t live as well as Old Man Liu’s family! The most annoying thing was that his old father-in-law, Butcher Hu, was always coming to collect it from time to time.
It's a bit unfair to say that a respectable family like him married their daughter to Fan Jin! As compensation, Fan Jin should make more contributions. Although Fan Jin's house is dilapidated and should have been repaired long ago, he still completely ignores every time.
When you come to visit, you always have to say a few words, even if you think Fan Jin is useless, if you can get a meal of good wine and food, you can get a little peace of mind
Alas, poor Fan Jin!
But now, Fan Jin's back has become stronger! He is no longer as humble as before, because he won the exam, and he is a master of the exam! When he thinks about it, he is very proud and dares not to give up.
His wife was in his eyes, and he had even more grounds for resentment. He blamed her for not being pregnant for a long time, called her an old hen that couldn't lay eggs, and said that if he got lucky one day, he would take a concubine again, no matter what.
, Don’t miss the important event of carrying on the family line! If this woman dares to be too troublesome, I will simply divorce her, which can be regarded as revenge on the butcher Hu!
These were things he never dared to think about before! Now, he can implement them at any time, what a change! Therefore, when he thought about this, he felt a burst of emotion in his heart, which made his heart feel happy and sweet.
That feels amazing
Fan Jin relaxedly took a sip of the black tea that he had rarely enjoyed before. He couldn't bear to swallow it in one gulp and kept it in his mouth, acting sour and polite.
This black tea was probably someone else's filial piety, but I had never thought of it this way before, and I couldn't help but feel a sudden emotion, which made Fan Jin very excited. He also understood the changes in this, but that was no longer important!
After thinking about it, Fan Jin's face turned red. He felt that no one in the world was worthy of him. The world owed him so much. When he thought about it, he felt very sorry for himself.
The fish turned over and was so happy that he couldn't hide his inner ecstasy, so much so that his hands trembled and he kept refilling Old Man Liu's tea.
Unexpectedly, Fan Jin, who has always been very dull, was lucky enough to win the imperial examination today, but he seemed to be a completely different person. His personality had also changed greatly! It was very surprising.
Seeing Fan Jin's excitement, Ke Han was really happy for him. He respected him as a diligent and dedicated talented person and wanted to get to know him, so he squeezed into the crowd, got closer to Fan Jin, clasped his hands and congratulated him: "Congratulations to Fan Jin."
I won the exam!"
Seeing a suave white-faced scholar coming over, Fan Jin was also stunned. They didn't know each other, so he paused and said: "Thank you young master. May I ask where you are from? How do you know about Fan?"
Ke Han chuckled, took out the "Book of Privileges" inscribed by the emperor himself, and said: "I am the organizer of the preparatory committee of "Dashun Times Weekly". I admire Mr. Fan's literary talents and would like to recommend him to work with "Dashun Times Weekly"
,how?"
"Da Shun Times Weekly? What does that do?" Fan Jin asked doubtfully, "I am a civil servant, how can I just deal with errands?"
"Da Shun Times Weekly is an information interactive platform appointed by the emperor. If you are lucky enough to work in this magazine, it will be as glorious as writing a book in the Hanlin Academy. It is a rare opportunity! Think about Mr. Fan's past experience,
It is also quite rich. These are the treasures of the founding of the magazine and rare social experience. It would be a pity to give up the opportunity in "Dashun Times Weekly"!" Ke Han explained
Fan Jin frowned and thought for a moment, then asked: "What can I do at Dashun Times Weekly?"
"Editorial and writing!" Ke Han said, "Write out what you want to say and publish it in "Dashun Times Weekly". It's that simple. Specifically, you should be the editor-in-chief. Of course, you are responsible for editing and writing.
It is not a matter of one person, so more people will join in.”
"A position appointed by the emperor and recognized by the imperial court?" Fan Jin asked uneasily, "Is it the same as the Hanlin Academy?"
"Yes! Almost!" Ke Han nodded affirmatively
"Then I'll give it a try. As promised, I'm the editor-in-chief, the one who can manage people!" Fan Jin agreed after receiving Ke Han's affirmative answer.
