Great Blue Night Watchman

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 attract firepower, so you still have the nerve to drink here?"

"Come on! I don't know 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 moon wandering upstairs, should be illuminated by Li Ren's makeup." Who is this "Li Ren"? Don't all the beauties you like the most make beds beside you and wrap around your knees? Who has left you? Tell me..."

"Talk about your sister..." Lin Su was annoyed by this. No matter what kind of poem he wrote, someone would always grab specific words in it to analyze. Who was he talking about? You need to know that the poems you copy 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?

If you stay in Beijing, you will be a capital official, if you leave Beijing, you will be 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 emperor's nose, he would fly upward on a rocket at every opportunity.

However, things are not absolute. Sometimes, external employment can lead to faster promotion because there are tangible political 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 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 he should be is an editor. That's the fifth rank. What should he do if he gets down to the local level? It would be too unqualified to become a county magistrate if you directly become a prefect because you lack some qualifications.

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 is just a No. 1 county magistrate or No. 1 magistrate.

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 another iron law of officialdom. If you offend the emperor, you don't have to think about doing anything in officialdom.

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

You have offended the emperor and still want to be an official? Of course, the title of Number One Scholar is there, and it is impossible for the emperor not to give you an official position, otherwise it would be a slap in the face of the temple, but is giving you an official position the same thing as using you? It is almost inevitable that you will have a position and be idle for the rest of your life.

Lin Su looked at their faces and smiled slightly. What are your expressions? Are you worried that I won't be able to get a good official position? Haha, literature is just a ladder for me. I have never thought that if I really wanted to be an official, all Your Majesty could give me would be 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 the next best thing. Disregarding the crisis of the country is a serious danger. Everyone knows about the ambition of the slaves in the wilderness. 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 world falls, they are just changing their masters to be loyal!"

After drinking the strong drink, Li Xiaotian felt pain in his eyes.

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 literary arts.

Li Xiaotian, the seventh-ranked scholar in high school, actually thought of abandoning literature and joining the 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 life, Li Xiaotian, is to become the nightmare of Osumi's 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 hold military positions. As long as you are willing, the emperor can ask for it. The combat power of literary scholars is much stronger than that of military generals, but generally literary scholars are not willing to serve as military generals.

Other court officials don't care much about the border war situation. It's impossible for His Majesty the Emperor not to care. Aliens invade and the country is destroyed. 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? Baiyunbian? 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 accept the love and the gift. I respect you for this glass of wine! To tell you the truth, before coming to Beijing, I almost lost confidence in Da Cang Wen Dao, 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 am the only one who is visiting the top scholar today. I am not a failure in my official career.

But soon, another feeling emerged in my mind. Did this kid give me eye drops? You don't visit anyone else, but you only visit me. Why do I feel that the way Lao Zhang and Lao Zhao look at me 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 no one could tell how powerful the number one scholar would be and how great his potential would be. 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 the sky 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 is just a possibility, but His Majesty is a big mountain in front of him. It would be stupid to lose His Majesty's trust for the sake of a small opportunity that may arise.

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, none of the two Lin brothers came. They have not been out today. They were drinking, singing and playing pipa at Yixian Yuan in Qufu...

Lu Tian didn't know what it felt like in his heart.

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

It's one thing if you come and 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..."

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

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

Son of a bitch!

Lu Tiancong was furious. You didn't come to visit me yourself, but you still didn't forget to seduce my granddaughter. You took all the benefits, how unreasonable...

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, wouldn't you let yourself become a character like Zhang Wenyuan and Zhao Xun? That is lowering yourself...

Lin Su had returned to Yixian Courtyard. Every time he entered and exited Yixian Courtyard, he regarded it as a vegetable garden gate. However, the mentality of the Qu family had already changed and they completely ignored it. No matter how many times he had gone in and out, he could still be here. Any one night stay is a blessing.

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.

The Qu family was almost surrounded and suppressed in the shopping mall, but Lin Su struck out and turned defeat into victory. All merchants from all walks of life plunged into the ditch, and the Qu family became gods in the dye industry. Since then, Qujia Embroidery has become the first choice in Beijing, and so far, even the only high-end one.

Qu Jin and Qu Wu failed in the scientific examination, but Qu Zhe suddenly rose to prominence, and finally fell under His Majesty's golden pen.

The collective failure of the three sons of the Qu family declared that the Qu family was in decline. Just when Qu Wendong was desperate, Lin Jialiang stepped into the Holy Jinshi and gave him a shot in the arm.

Before Qu Wendong's excitement was over, he received the biggest shock. Lin Su, the man who was sentenced to death by the whole city, actually became the number one scholar!

Moreover, with a single backhand in front of the Confucian Temple, Zhang Wenyuan's son was completely destroyed.

This waste is the most memorable.

Because Zhang Hong was Zhang Wenyuan's link to the Holy Family, once this tie was broken, the Zhang family's long-planned plan was wiped out.

It can be said that this move was several times more lethal to Zhang Wenyuan than the destruction of his old house.

What can an old house have? He was nothing more than an old father who was declining, but by deposing Zhang Hong, he ended the Zhang family's strategy of relying on a big tree.

If it were just this, Qu Wendong would applaud Lin Su because Lin Su had done one hundred and twenty things he wanted to do but could never do. It's a pity that Qu Wendong is too old and has almost become a spirit. He knows that things are not that simple.

While Lin Su was fighting against the Zhang family, he must also have offended the Holy family.

But while offending the Holy Family, it also gained the endorsement of the Holy Temple.

The officials of the court, the royal family, the Holy Family, and the Holy Temple, each of these four families is more ruthless than the other. Any character involved will become a victim in the giant arena and be crushed into powder, but Lin Su just stepped in. .

Once you step in, even if it is a painted screen with autumn water, it cannot draw the frame behind it, and even if it is a green dress, it cannot play the tune whether it is joy or sadness...

Lin Su was writing furiously in the study, and An Ye was beside him helping him sharpen his ink.

Lin Su writes quickly, and she sharpens quickly.

"Chapter 120: "Zhen Shiyin talks about too much false love, Jia Yucun interprets the Dream of Red Mansions"...'Orchid, Gui and Fang, the family fortune is restored'."

The last word is written, and the one hundred and twenty chapters of "A Dream of Red Mansions" are officially completed.

Lin Su put down the pen in her hand, looked at the dark night with tears in front of her, gently stretched out her hand and held her in her arms.

An Ye lay quietly in his arms and closed her eyes.

"Baby, do you really have to go?"

An Ye said softly: "My husband, you are now a scholar. You can protect yourself now, but in the future, more terrifying opponents will definitely appear. I can't indulge in my husband's arms. I need to step into the realm of peeping into the sky." , so that I can share this mortal world with you in the future.”

"I know! I know that you are the divine phoenix in the sky, and you can't just disappear into the world of mortals. I just feel a little reluctant to let you go."

An Ye smiled softly: "So you speed up the progress of Red Mansion. You want me to read the entire Red Mansion before leaving."

"yes."

"A Dream in Red Mansions started with Lu Youwei, and finally I, Ding Yaoye, am contented!... Tonight, I will accompany you, and tomorrow I will leave before you wake up..."

That night, no one disturbed me. I finished watching Red Mansions in the dark night, drank wine with him, and then something unspeakable happened. It was crazy...

The next day, Lin Su woke up from his sleep. No one around him was around. He opened the window, and a sentence from Dream of Red Mansions suddenly appeared in his mind: The vast white land is so clean...

"Ms. sir!" Sister Chen and Lu Yi came in side by side. Although they forced smiles on their faces, they still felt a little sad about leaving in the dark night.

Lin Su opened his arms and hugged them: "Don't be sad, she has gone to break through the realm. Soon, she will be back, stepping on the sky, peering into the sky, and beating whoever she catches."

Sister Chen said: "This is what we sisters want to tell you. The Ding family girl will be back soon. Don't worry about her. Today is the Jinshi Banquet. It's time for you to get up. The second young master is already waiting downstairs. "

Um? Is my second brother so active?

Green clothes grabbed his outstretched hand and held him back. Who is like you? The Jinshi banquet is a banquet hosted by the emperor. You can't just go there, right? By the way, you smell so sexy that you need to take a shower. Oh my god, did you guys risk your lives last night?
