"Let me introduce to you, this is Xu Xiu, Ding Weike Jinshi, a person from Songjiang Mansion in Nanzhili!" Zhu Dashou hurriedly stepped forward and solemnly introduced the three of them.

Although he is new to officialdom, Lin Haoran is not a real rookie. Just from Zhu Dashou's reaction and what he said, he could already deduce something.

This short and fat man of about forty years old has extremely deep qualifications and belongs to the old man of the Hanlin Academy. Zhu Dashou bit the "Songjiang Mansion" heavier, obviously this is a key point, Xu Ge Lao is also a person from Songjiang Mansion, and the two are very likely to be related to each other.

"I've seen Lord Xu!" Lin Haoran looked calm, even if he guessed that the other party had the support of Xu Gelao, he still did not bow or arrogantly.

"Haha...... Xinke Zhuangyuan Lang is really a talent, and the two of you are not bad! Xu Yuanping looked very kind, and then said to the three of them heroically: "Since you have entered our Hanlin Academy, it is a family, and if you encounter anything you don't understand in the future, you can come and ask me about this brother!" I will not be stingy with those who can guide you! ”

"Thank you, brother!" Mao Dianyuan bowed his hand gratefully.

Lin Haoran exchanged a look with Xu Wei, both revealing a little helplessness, arched his hand towards Xu Yuanping, and spit out the word "thank you" in his mouth, but the "brother" did not spit out.

Although Xu Yuanping's qualifications are indeed at the top, it is a bit far-fetched to want to be their "elder brother", especially the "elder brother" of Lin Haoran, who is also the Hanlin cultivator.

Xu Yuanping felt good about himself, and still held the posture of "brother", briefly introduced the other officials, and then instructed Zhu Dashou to lead the three newcomers to meet the officials.

On the right side of the inspection hall is the reference room where the historian's classics are stored, and on the left side is a large office area, with the historian's seat in front and the scribe's small seat in the back, connected to the small council hall next door.

Lin Haoran was led to the council hall by the great shous, and called all the scribes in the repair and inspection hall over, and these scribes bowed down to the three Shangguan sitting on the seats.

The officials of the Ming Dynasty were separated from the officials, the officials were born as people and jinshi, and the officials were born as students or talents. When officials see officials, even if they are students, they need to bow down during the ceremony.

After the officials had finished bowing, Zhu Dashou pointed to the scribes standing in the two rows in front and said, "According to the regulations of this court, you and others have a clerk to call, and you can choose one of these two rows of clerks!" ”

Lin Haoran immediately understood, this is equivalent to choosing a secretary, and the standard for a good secretary is naturally "a secretary who has something to do, and a secretary who has nothing to do". It's just clear that this is officialdom, and there can't be such a beautiful option.

found that Xu Wei and Mao Dianyuan were both looking at him with a smile, so he immediately bowed his hand to the two of them and said, "Then I'll pick first!" ”

"Please!" Xu Wei and Mao Dianyuan returned the courtesy, so naturally they would not compete with him, a Shangguan.

Lin Haoran looked at the officials in the first two rows, ranging in age from twenty to fifty, with young people with excited eyes and dejected little old men.

Sun Jixiang is a scribe in the repair and inspection hall of the Hanlin Academy, and he has always been conscientious, waiting for waves of nobles.

At the beginning of his entry into Hanlin, he, like other scribes, wanted to change his fate by befriending nobles. It's just that time has worn all this away, and hope has gradually come to naught.

In the beginning, a noble man selected him to be a commissioner and scribe, but then the noble man was transferred after a few years. As he grew older, and he looked extremely ordinary, just like those old prostitutes in the Qinglou, no one wanted to look at him again.

Now that he is standing here again for others to choose, he will become a foil for some people, and he can't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart.

Only suddenly, his clothes were ripped off. At first, he looked at his companion suspiciously, and his companion's eyes were extremely eager, and he followed his companion's gaze, only to see the young cultivator pointing at him.

"What's your name?" Lin Haoran pointed to the little old man in the second row and asked with a smile.

"I ...... My name is Sun Jixiang! Sun Jixiang looked incredulous and stammered as he replied.

"Auspicious? Good name! That's it! Lin Haoran nodded first, and then smiled at Zhu Dashou.

Zhu Dashou was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect that Lin Haoran would choose Sun Jixiang, who was not good-looking. Although such people have experience, they are not energetic, and they are not as shrewd as young people.

"If you are a foolish brother, should you be cautious?" Zhu Dashou hesitated for a moment, but still chose to persuade.

"No thanks!" Lin Haoran was so excited that he was about to shed tears when he saw Sun Jixiang, so naturally he couldn't change it.

Compared with shrewd young people, he is more optimistic about this kind of steady scribe, some people who can really do things. On the other hand, those young scribes, although shrewd and energetic, were stuffed into it at such a young age, and they were afraid that they were marked by some forces, or even the eyes and ears of others.

Mao Dianyuan chose a young scribe, and Xu Wei seems to have his considerations in this regard, choosing a steady and mature scribe.

After selecting the exclusive officials, Zhu Dashou took the three of them back to the officials' office area and received them in front of the public case that belonged to them.

Lin Haoran followed Xu Yuanping and Hanlin Xiu in the first row, but it was the closest to the inside, that is, the sixth table in the first row, next to Zhu Dashou.

The public case seems to have been cleaned, and there are already four treasures of the study on it, and everything is good. He placed the position of the inkstone, and then looked around, and there was a sense of familiarity.

He remembered that he had joined the company for the first time in his previous life, which was very similar to what he is now. At that time, he was a newcomer to the workplace, and he was both apprehensive and curious about everything, and now he is a newcomer to officialdom, but his heart is more excited.

However, there is something in common with the previous life, that is, they all have the pride to do a career.

Since he didn't have a specific job, he asked Sun Jixiang to find him a history of the Ming Dynasty, and he slowly flipped through it. I plan to take advantage of this leisure time to gain a deeper understanding of this era.

For example, why did Zheng He go to the West, why did the Ming treasure banknote decline, and the royal ...... What's the gossip?

Just as Lin Haoran was flipping through an interesting history of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Yuanping suddenly came to him, handed over a beautiful purple clay pot, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Ruoyu, help me make a pot of tea!" This is the purple clay pot that Xu Ge gave me, you have to be careful! ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire partition case suddenly fell silent, and they all looked at the two of them.

Just watched Lin Haoran smile and reach over to pick up the purple clay pot, although they knew that this was actually a very normal result, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
