Chapter 242: Qionglin Banquet
"What's so good about the Ministry of War, who doesn't know that the Ministry of Industry is rich, and there are millions of projects every year! Look at Yan Shifan, why has he been nesting in the Ministry of Industry, and Xu Gelao, why did he secretly stuff his son into the Ministry of Industry? As soon as the words fell, Yang Futian suddenly said anxiously.
Ning Jiang's forehead hung a black line, and he found that the IQ of this product was really lacking, and looked at him with disdain: "With your IQ, one day you will definitely be sold and count the money for others, you better tell the old man and return to his hometown as soon as possible!" ”
"You're just going home! Although I can't enter the cabinet, I will definitely be able to be a scholar, and I am the most beautiful official secretary! Yang Futian raised his chin and said with confidence.
Ning Jiang raised a middle finger and concluded that these two goods would hit their heads and bleed in the officialdom.
Lin Haoran was naturally not as good as Yang Futian, and after hearing Ning Jiang's answer, he looked at him deeply. Immediately thought of Weng Shangshu of the former military department, although Weng Shangshu followed Ningjiang with different surnames, but they were from Chaozhou, I was afraid that this marriage would not be shallow.
The Ministry of War is naturally inconspicuous in the Sixth Department, far less oily and watery than the Ministry of Industry, and does not have as much authority as the Ministry of Officials. It's just that the top three jinshi can enter the military department, which is a very good place, as long as you stay in the capital, it's really hard to say where you can go in the future.
After learning about Ning Jiang's whereabouts, Lin Haoran knew that Ning Jiang's future didn't need him to worry about at all, so he turned to Yang Futian and asked, "What about you?" Do you want to go to the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Officials? ”
"It's okay to do both, but it's a little tricky!" Yang Futian nodded happily, but frowned.
Although he is a second-class jinshi, he is not ranked high, and he does not have any excellent resources. If you want to enter the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Officials, I am afraid that it will take some effort.
"Didn't you say that Wu Shangshu was a master who only recognized money?" Ning Jiang looked at him with disdain.
"That's right! But...... I don't know him well, I'm afraid I can't enter his house, and I don't know how to send the silver! Yang Futian sighed and said dejectedly.
"When I go to the criminal department in the future, I will behead you first!" Ning Jiang heard that he really took this road, and immediately pointed at him and grinded his teeth.
"You say I'm a pig all day long, I think you're a pig!" Yang Futian didn't blush at all, pointed outside and said: "Now the entire officialdom doesn't take bribes, you just wait to be excluded, and sooner or later you have to go to Nanjing to report." ”
Lin Haoran saw that the two were about to argue again, so he hurriedly followed the two and said, "Okay, it should be almost there, let's get ready to get out of the car when we have something to do!" ”
Qionglin Banquet, in fact, is the name of folk custom, and it has been renamed Enrong Banquet in this dynasty. The venue of the previous banquets was set up in the Ministry of Rites, which was hosted by the Ministry of Rites and Guanglu Temple.
The eleven of them arrived at the entrance of the ceremonial department, took out the sign that passed, and walked into the gate of the ceremonial department.
Lin Haoran couldn't help but take a few more looks, the Yamen of the Hanlin Academy, which he was about to join, was the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites was Hanlin's own place. The best development route in the future is to enter the Ministry of Rites, and then use the Ministry of Rites as a springboard to enter the cabinet.
It's just that this time the banquet was set up in the banquet hall, and they were led to the banquet hall next to it without even stepping into the second door.
Although the banquet has not yet begun, more than 100 jinshi have gathered in the banquet hall. Many people were surrounding Tanhualang Xu Wei, but they didn't know what he was talking about, and everyone listened to it with relish.
"Haha...... The champion came just in time! If you have any questions, ask him. Xu Wei's first sentence was said to Lin Haoran, and the second sentence was said to the group of people around him.
When these jinshi saw Lin Haoran, the champion, appear, they all came over to greet him and compliment him.
When Lin Haoran heard them mention getting rid of Xu Liang, he knew that Xu Wei had helped him promote his deeds of "blood scholar" again, and he humbly followed the Jinshi who came over.
"Senior brother, you are a model for our generation of scholars!"
Although they are all powerless scholars, they all have a grand desire to protect their families and defend the country, and after learning about Lin Haoran's deeds, many people's impression of Lin Haoran has changed greatly.
Getting rid of the leader of Xu Haiyu's party, eliminating harm for the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and contributing to the cause of the Ming Dynasty's anti-Japanese war, what a great achievement, how can they not feel admired?
Especially the scholars of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, after learning about Lin Haoran's feat, they all regarded him as a hero. And Lin Haoran's status has been invisibly raised, making up for his previous young disadvantage, and he resolutely became the leader of Enke Jinshi this time.
In fact, Xu Wei and Mao Dianyuan both admired Lin Haoran, how could they not be convinced? Especially the friendship of the same department, this relationship is one of the most important ties in officialdom, even if there is jealousy in the heart, but on the surface, Lin Haoran must be respected.
Lin Haoran naturally didn't hold it up, and returned the salute to everyone. Although it is not realistic to write down more than 300 jinshi, it is not too late to make friends if they meet in the future.
"I'm just reacting now!" After Lin Haoran fell quiet, he went to Ning Jiang to complain.
"What's the matter?" Ning Jiang looked at him suspiciously.
"That plaque may have encapsulated my exploits!" Lin Haoran's eyes were shining with tears, very much like going back and smashing the plaque.
"Not necessarily, you deserve that name!" Ning Jiang thought seriously, then shook his head and said.
"So, I'll be promoted?" Lin Haoran's eyes lit up slightly, looking at Ning Jiangdao.
Ning Jiang was about to strike, but a praise officer from Honglu Temple sang loudly: "The official is still here, here!" ”
The entire noisy lobby was silent for an instant, and then I watched an obese second-grade official walk in, and nearly two hundred jinshi scattered in the banquet hall looked at this official and bowed.
This official is naturally Wu Peng, the secretary of the ministry, but he waved his hand gently and said: "Today is a banquet for the saint, and I will be an official in the same dynasty in the future, so I don't need to be polite!" ”
As he spoke, he led a few subordinate officials straight to the upper seat.
"If I'm not mistaken, Elder Xu Ge will attend the Enrong Banquet!" Ning Jiang looked at Wu Peng from a distance and said with certainty.
"Why are you so sure?" Lin Haoran looked at him suspiciously.
Ning Jiang turned his head, and said confidently with his eyes: "Although the officials are also in Dongjiang Mixiang, it is indeed faster than other officials to come over, but if the chief reading officer Xu Ge Lao does not attend, our teacher will definitely have to accompany him." ”
"Awesome! It's a pity that you don't go to the criminal department! Lin Haoran gave him a thumbs up and praised him sincerely.
Yang Futian looked at Ning Jiang's somewhat moved appearance, so he leaned over with a fat face and asked with a smile: "Hehe...... Do you want my brother to help me and give your share together? ”
Ning Jiang's face changed slightly, and he squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Get out."
