"Hurry up and invite Xu Luqing (Xu Fan) here!" Knowing that Xu Fan was coming, Yan Ne seemed to attach great importance to it, listening to the movement outside, and told his son Yan Cheng seriously: "When my father was in the Hanlin Academy, Xu Ge had a lot of protection, and our Yan family should not forget this kind of kindness." ”

The words were not serious, but they were enough to be heard by Xu Fan, who came to the living room. These words drilled into his ears, and immediately made Xu Fan feel like he had eaten honey, and his originally raised chin rose proudly.

"Children follow the teachings!" Yan Cheng naturally knew about the past, and now his father took it out and said it, obviously not for him, but he still agreed seriously.

Xu Fan strode into the living room, pretending not to hear Fang Cai's words, and congratulated Yan Ne with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Lord Yan, congratulations to Lord Yan!" ”

"It's too early to do this! Lu Qing, please take a seat! Yan Ne shook his head lightly, looking enthusiastic and pointing to the guest seat.

"I've seen Lord Xu!" Yan Cheng stood beside his father, and took the initiative to salute Xu Fan at this time.

Xu Fan's gaze fell on Yan Cheng, and he nodded lightly and said, "Brother Dao Che (Yan Cheng's character), don't come to harm?" ”

"Everything is fine, thank you Lord Xu for your concern!" Yan Cheng replied.

For Xu Fan, he was envious in his heart. is also from the country, but the other party has already entered the official Meng as an official, and now he is the Shaoqing of the Fourth Rank Dachang Temple, becoming a figure in the officialdom.

On the other hand, he only has the fame of a prisoner at the moment. If he chooses to enter the government as an official, he has to start from a small middle school scholar, and he will be able to serve as a prefect in a place in the future, which is already the limit of his career.

Yan Ne glanced up at the sky, resolutely dusk had come, and smiled at Xu Fan: "It's not early, I wonder if Lu Qing will have time to drink with the old man today?" ”

"Dare to disobey!" Xu Fan chose this time to come over, and it was also a bit of a rubbing meal, and he immediately agreed.

Yan Ne's face showed a smile like a spring breeze, and he directly ordered his son: "Yan Cheng, you let your mother show your hands, I want to have a drink with Lu Qing today!" ”

"Yes!" Yan Cheng could see that his father attached great importance to Xu Fan, and immediately took the order.

The Yan family soon set up a banquet, and the place of the meal was selected in the dining room, only a large table was set up, and there were sumptuous dishes on the table, which was resolutely Suzhou cuisine.

Yan Ne personally entertained, Yan Cheng accompanied him, and when the last dish was served, Mrs. Yan also showed her face, which was enough to give Xu Fan's face.

Among the four masters of green words, although Yan Ne is not the most brilliant one, he is the most diligent and serious one. Which one served as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, he also focused on the green words, and often went to the Wuyi Hall to write the green words, which was very dependent on the saints.

It's just that I've been in Xiyuan for a long time, and I can see the change in the situation more clearly. As Yan Song is getting older and older, especially last year, when he opposed the rebuilding of Wanshou Palace, Yan Song has gradually fallen out of favor.

On the other hand, Xu Jie's efforts to promote the reconstruction of the Wanshou Palace were completed at a super fast speed, which made the saint extremely satisfied. At present, more concerts are handed over to Xu Jie for votes, and Xu Jie's votes are frequently summoned instead of Yan Song, and he already has the momentum of becoming the first favorite of the saint.

"Lu Qing, you came by chance today, someone just sent an authentic squirrel mandarin fish today, how about you taste it?" Yan Ne pointed to the authentic Suzhou famous dish.

The benefits of power and status are endless, and knowing that he is about to become the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, someone has found Suzhou's specialty squirrel mandarin fish regardless of the cost, which is a big live fish that is jumping around.

Xu Fan took a piece of fish meat with chopsticks, dipped it in a little seasoning, and put the fish meat in his mouth under Yan Ne's expectant gaze, which was immediately sweet and delicious, and immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "Okay!" ”

He and Yan Ne are both from Nanzhili, and they are treated so politely at the moment, they feel a little more cordial to Yan Ne's family, even if he has the same surname as the person he hates the most.

Whether it is true or false, both parties have the qualifications to intersect on an equal footing, and this meal is very cheerful.

"Lu Qing, I don't know why you came to the old man's office? Or is there any ...... about Xu Ge Instructions? Yan Ne saw that he had eaten almost enough, so he took the initiative to ask seriously.

"Yan Shilang, I came here this time, not because I was entrusted by my father, but in fact, I have something to ask for!" Yan Ne shook his head lightly, looked at Yan Ne and said seriously.

Yan Ne's eyes couldn't help flashing a trace of disappointment, and at the same time, there was also a hint of luck, his face quickly returned to calm, and he asked seriously: "Eh, what is the matter with Lu Qing looking for the old man, but it doesn't matter!" ”

"Yan Shilang, I want you to play a trick and accuse Lin Wenkui of being too young to be useful in Mrs. Zhang's case!" Xu Fan met Yan Ne's eyes and got straight to the point.

As soon as these words came out, the father and son of the Yan family couldn't help but look at each other.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, who has the greatest potential is naturally Lin Wenkui. Shuntian Mansion Yin, who is only twenty-one years old and has already become an official of the third grade, will definitely be able to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in time.

Yan Ne is not a person with great ambitions because of the pockmarks on his face, and he has always acted cautiously. Even if he suffers some losses, he doesn't want to have a grudge against others, and he has already listed Lin Haoran as one of the characters who cannot be messed with.

At that moment, Xu Fan wanted to ask him to make a move on Lin Haoran, which undoubtedly went against his original intention, and he was taking a certain risk. After all, people like Lin Haoran can't get rid of it, and they will have to bear Lin Haoran's anger ten years later, which is obviously to bury mines for his family.

Xu Fan looked at Yan Ne and was silent, and asked, "Is there a difficulty?" ”

"Lin Wenkui's son is not simple!" Yan Ne took a sip of wine and said frankly.

Xu Fan said disapprerovingly: "That kid is indeed a little difficult to deal with, but now that he has lost the protection of Wu Shan, and Gao Shangshu is doing it, this time he is in a catastrophe." ”

"It turned out that Gao Yao did it, no wonder this matter can make a storm in the city!" Yan Ne suddenly realized the truth.

Mrs. Zhang's case is controversial, but the controversy of the matter is too loud, and I felt that things were strange before. If Gao Yao is behind the scenes, this effect can indeed be achieved, and the doubts in his heart will be easily solved.

Xu Fan saw Yan Ne's reaction in his eyes, and said seductively: "If you are added, that kid will definitely die, and there will be no future future!" ”

"What did Elder Xu Ge say?" Yan Ne knew that his choice to make a move could indeed give Lin Haoran a heavy blow, but he still raised his head and asked seriously.

Xu Fan was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he looked at Yan Ne's gaze and said meaningfully: "My father has no objection!" ”

He played a little word game, and his father Xu Jie had no objection, because his father didn't know about it at all.

"Good!" Yan Ne mistakenly thought that it was Xu Jie's meaning, so he nodded seriously.

Although he has a good impression of Lin Haoran, the interests of the group come first.

Since Xu Jie wants to enter Lin Haoran to make a move, he doesn't mind making a contribution, especially since he is about to become the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be variables, and it is Xu Jie who can be relied on.

As for Lin Haoran's number, if Gao Yao made a move, and he chose to participate, plus Xu Ge Lao, who was waiting for an opportunity behind him, Lin Haoran would definitely be in a catastrophe.

The two-day holiday ended in the blink of an eye, ushering in the first "working day" of May.

In the early morning of this day, there were obviously more officials at the door of the General Administration than in the past. A large group of officials lined up to register and hand in a note, and a storm was coming.
