What happened?

Yang Futian watched the sudden arrival of the eunuch and the Jinyi guard, and his heart immediately tightened, looking at this group of uninvited guests with great fright.

If the eunuch only arrived, it would be an unpredictable blessing and a curse. But the eunuch followed the Jinyi guard to the door, I'm afraid there won't be anything good, this is usually directly arrested in the edict.

This edict has been entered, but it is not so easy to get out. Like Li Mo, the official secretary of the government and the opposition in the past, after such a big man entered, the result was "thin to death" in prison.

As soon as they thought of this, they turned their heads to look at the teacher Yin Tai with concern, and their hearts were still faintly painful.

This teacher is a model in their life, not only did not become a trend in officialdom, but also had a gentlemanly style and was an upright official. But such a clean stream official is not satisfactory in the officialdom, and he is about to face prison at the moment.

Yin Tai's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and some tea overflowed from the cup, and the slightly hot tea fell into the skin on his hand. It's just that he kept his composure and brought the teacup to his lips.

"Grandpa Chen, my teacher is here!"

Lin Haoran watched this group of people appear, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, but his face was not sad but happy, he got up from his seat and saluted the father-in-law surnamed Chen.

Gonggong Chen led the Jinyi guard directly into the courtyard, and he also noticed these people on the other side of the tea table, and even noticed Yin Tai, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, who was sitting on the main seat.

Seeing Lin Haoran standing up, he first fixed his eyes on it, and then immediately said happily: "Who did I say!" It was originally Wen Kuilang, but I haven't seen him for a few years, and Wen Kuilang is still stylish! ”

When Lin Haoran served as the cabinet secretary, the two had an intersection. Although he has no deep friendship, Lin Haoran has an eight-sided exquisite character, and this eunuch will naturally not despise this new star in officialdom.

Now that they meet again, the two look like old friends reunited. In particular, Lin Haoran has been promoted from Hanlin Xiu to Shuntian Mansion, and his status has risen a lot, why didn't Gonggong Chen sell him some face?

"My father-in-law praised it! Father-in-law, you have won the emperor's favor today, and you are a big celebrity around the emperor, which is really gratifying and celebrating! Lin Haoran returned the salute.

"It's not our family that is happy and celebratory today!" Gonggong Chen smiled with a smile, turned his head to look at Yin Tai and said, "Yin Shangshu, you must have guessed why our family came, right?" As he spoke, he took out the holy decree as if he had turned into magic and said, "Yin Shangshu, take the decree!" ”

Divine decree?

Yang Futian and Ning Jiang were puzzled why Lin Haoran was so enthusiastic, and they seemed to be in a good mood, but when they heard that it was a holy decree, their doubts in their hearts increased greatly.

Faintly, the two of them found that Lin Haoran and Yin Tai both knew what was going on.

"Weichen Nanjing Ministry of Rites Shangshu Yin Tai received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Yin Tai walked directly in front of Gonggong Chen and respectfully saluted.

Lin Haoran and Yang Futian knelt down with Yin Tai to greet this holy decree.

Gonggong Chen unfolded the holy decree and immediately read it aloud: "Yin Tai, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, is knowledgeable and has the way to govern the country. ”

According to the process of the examination, about 10 days before the examination, the examiner will announce the examination. The appointed examiner shall immediately reside in the Gongyuan and shall not have any contact with anyone until the end of the examination.

Yin Tai was a Shuji scholar in the fourteenth year of Jiajing, and he has always served in the yamen of the ritual department such as the Hanlin Academy, the Guozijian and the Ministry of Rites, and is undoubtedly the most righteous Hanlin official.

He is currently serving as the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, which is enough to be qualified for the position of chief examiner of the examination in terms of qualifications and position, so he is one of the candidates for the chief examiner of the examination.

Of course, it will not be easy for this candidate to be elected. Once you become the chief examiner of the examination, you will get 300 Jinshi protégés, which is too big.

It is said that Yuan Wei, the new cabinet minister from the Hanlin Academy, is the best candidate for the chief examiner of this examination.

It's just the "scandal" that broke out during the Spring Festival, as well as the old things about Yuan Wei's "disobedience to the teacher" in the past. Originally, Yuan Wei was not recognized by Shilin if he was not in the position, and his current image and prestige plummeted, and his hope of being elected was greatly reduced.

Yan Dang and Xu Dang naturally saw this, and I am afraid that they would not give up this competition, and naturally they both wanted to let their people be elected as the chief examiner.

It's just that the answer was officially revealed, but Yin Tai, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, who was outside the Yan Party and the Xu Party, was elected and became the chief examiner of this year's examination, picking up this big cake.

"Weichen received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Yin Tai's eyes were slightly filled with tears, and he seriously accepted the order.

For him, this is not only a big cake, but also a crucial big step.

He served as the chief examiner for this examination, and he will recruit 360 Jinshi protégés. With his age and seniority and prestige in the officialdom, it is probably not unimaginable that he will return to the center of power in the capital.

"Yin Shangshu, let's go! The carriage is already waiting outside! After Gonggong Chen handed over the bright and yellow holy decree to Yin Tai, he immediately urged.

Yin Tai didn't have time to share this great joy with everyone, but he had to be separated from his family and students, which is a small price to pay for becoming the examiner.

Yin Tai's wife, Li, had long known about the movement in this courtyard, and walked out with her official uniform at this time.

He took the official uniform from his wife's hand, and the two of them nodded slightly, as if they had a good heart. Then, he turned his head to look at Lin Haoran, and his eyes were a little grateful.

Lin Haoran looked at Yin Tai's appearance of wanting to speak, but he knew that he could not speak at this time, so he took the first step to give a salute and said: "Teacher, don't worry, I will try my best to help you take care of your sister and sister!" ”

Yin Tai knew the ability of this disciple, so he nodded reassuringly and walked directly towards the door. Escorted by the brocade guard, he stepped into the tightly wrapped carriage.

Lin Haoran followed Yang Futian and the others out of the door in person, watching the carriage slowly leave until the carriage disappeared around the corner.

Ning Jiang retracted his gaze from the corner, looked at Lin Haoran with complicated eyes, and said seriously: "Senior brother, this is what you really want to seek when you stir up this big turmoil, right?" ”

Yang Futian was born in a family of businessmen, and he did not have the sense of officialdom like Ning Jiang. But after hearing this, he also figured out what he was, and immediately turned his head in shock to look at Lin Haoran, who was light and breezy.
