The corners of Jiang Yuebai's mouth were slightly bitter, this relationship was no longer a glorious thing for him, but a "shame".

In the past, a wooden man he looked down on had already ridden on his head. And now, even he, a high-ranking Yue master, is an opponent to be taken seriously.

Jiang Yuebai quickly cleaned up her mood and replied honestly: "Lin Ruoyu was born poor, he was dull by nature since he was a child, although he has never forgotten it, but he is actually a typical nerd. It's just that...... seems to have experienced something, and once made a fuss to hang himself, but the rope that hanged him was broken, allowing him to pick up his life. Then he seemed to suddenly open his mind, and he became very tactful, which made me feel like ...... It's like a different person! ”

"This scourge! I should have been hanged! When Xu Fan heard that there was still this past, he immediately said hatefully.

Xu Jie seemed to think of himself, but he sighed slightly: "It's no wonder that Lin Ruoyu is different from ordinary young talents!" Only those who have experienced great tribulations will have a new understanding of life, and then be wiser than ordinary people. ”

"Dad, this is just a poor boy in the end, and he has no foundation at all, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all!" Xu Fan seemed to look down on Lin Haoran from the bottom of his heart, and said contemptuously.

Xu Jie snorted lightly, and said angrily: "No root? You are trying to steal Guangdong's interests in every possible way these days, and you dare to say that people have no foundation? ”

Although Lin Haoran was born in poverty, but now, not to mention climbing the big tree in Wushan. Lin Haoran's business in Guangdong over the years alone has a foundation that cannot be underestimated, and I am afraid that only the two Huai salt merchants can suppress the joint business group in Guangdong.

"Dad, I didn't mean that, I meant that kid came from a humble background, after all, he was just a poor boy from a small township!" Xu Fan didn't expect his father to help the kid speak, so he immediately explained.

Xu Jie glanced at him sideways and preached: "When it comes to officialdom, this kind of poor background is one of his advantages!" If you really want to talk about his background, the entire officialdom can't compare to him, he is a Wenkui given by the Holy Emperor. If you look down on him because he comes from a poor background, I think you will suffer a great loss sooner or later! ”

Jiang Yuebai heard these words in her ears, and secretly sighed in her heart.

Originally, he also wanted to follow the path of a science and Taoist official, but his background as the son of a salt merchant blocked his way. In the current officialdom, whether it is a minister or a speech official, they are all proud of poverty.

In the past, he could despise Lin Haoran's poor background, but the moment he stepped into the officialdom, Lin Haoran's poor background became a capital, and it was even easier to win the recognition of his colleagues, but he was constrained everywhere.

Xu Fan was speechless, but changed the topic and said, "Dad, I suddenly remembered something!" Liu Shaoqing wants to visit you, do you arrange a time to meet him? ”

"There are a lot of people outside, so it's better to see each other less!" Xu Jie took a sip of the cold tea and lightly refused.

Xu Fan was not surprised by this answer, so he nodded and said, "Okay!" Then tomorrow I will refuse him! ”

Jiang Yuebai heard it again, and suddenly had a feeling of an outsider.

"That kid's Shuntian Mansion Yin is no play, and the new Shuntian Mansion Yin is Liu Ji!" Xu Fan looked at his son-in-law Jiang Yuebai and took the initiative to reveal the answer.

When Jiang Yuebai heard this person, his mind immediately flashed over this person, but he had seen it last year, and he was introduced by Gao Yao, the head of the household. And he was originally appointed as an engineering officer, admiral of the inner palace and inspector of the Wanshou Palace, and this year he was promoted to the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple.

Unlike his father-in-law, who is an official and cute, Liu Ji is obviously a transitional position, although it is difficult to move up, it is easy to "release".

At present, there is a vacancy in Shuntianfu Yin, and Liu Ji, who was born in Kedao and has qualifications, will undoubtedly be more suitable than Lin Haoran, and I am afraid that the outside world will not be able to find fault.

"This matter must be kept secret, otherwise things may have twists and turns!" Xu Jie looked at Jiang Yuebai and said seriously.

Regarding the candidate for Shuntian Mansion Yin, he had already looked for a proper candidate. Whether he wants to take this position into his own hands, or to stand in the way of Lin Haoran, he has to arrange for his own people to take it.

It's just that in view of Yan Shifan's original lesson, Yang Chi, the deputy envoy of Jiangxi, and Sun Sihui, the prefect of Yuanzhou, were criticized by Lin Haoran for being incomplete, so he wanted to "protect" Liu Ji immediately.

If Lin Haoran didn't know who took over the post of Shuntian Mansion Yin, and Liu Ji's qualifications and abilities had steadily overpowered Lin Haoran, when he submitted the candidate, there would naturally be no changes.

The city of Beijing is a large city in the shape of a convex shape, standing on this plain like Mount Tai, but there is always an undercurrent underneath it, as if someone is brewing a conspiracy every moment.

"Okay, we'll wait three days! If we can't find a strong witness, then we must release them in court, and we can't let innocent people suffer from this prison! ”

If it was in Leizhou Mansion, Lin Haoran would detain Xu Yuanwai for a year and a half, and I am afraid that no one would dare to stand up and make irresponsible remarks. It's just that this is the land of the capital after all, the six yamen are here, and the palace is located in the center of the city, which makes the courage of the people and scholars here particularly fat.

In the same way, a group of scholars dared to go directly to the Shuntian Mansion to make trouble, and finally forced the Shuntian Mansion to give them a clear answer, and agreed to hold another public trial three days later.

In three days, it was here in the blink of an eye.

The lobby of the Shuntian Mansion is already crowded. Due to the widespread concern of the people in the capital, after learning that the Shuntian Mansion had reopened the public trial, not only ordinary people, but also many scholars crowded in front of the court to watch.

If Lin Haoran still can't come up with strong new evidence today, he will be released in court, or he will continue to be detained for no reason. If it is at that time, this will undoubtedly be a slap in the face, and Lin Haoran's first case in the capital will end with an oolong case.

If it was the right time, not only would they "save" an innocent person, but Lin Haoran's personal reputation would inevitably be greatly negatively affected.

"Wei ...... Military! ”

As Lin Haoran, who was wearing a crimson official uniform, sat down on the public hall and slapped the alarming wood, the yacha below smashed the green brick surface with a long stick of water and fire, making a scalp-tinging sound, so that the scholars and people who came to the hall to see the joke felt the majesty of the hall.

"Take someone to commit it!"

Lin Haoran was not affected by the outside world's remarks, and even did not pay too much attention to today's deadline, and the whole person did not seem angry and arrogant. He was shocked and immediately gave an order.

Xu Fan was idle, but he had nothing to do, so he came to the Shuntian Mansion again to listen and sat on the seat below. For Lin Haoran's forced composure, he seemed disdainful in his heart.

Xu Yuanwai was escorted to the court, and seemed to know the news that he was about to be released in court, and his face couldn't help but be filled with a smug smile.
