Shen Jiu is in a difficult situation now. Because Lin Yanchao is now being cut down, the cut is that he has no official status. Not to mention a pro-people official with good rank, or a miscellaneous official who does not enter the stream, there is no way.

Moreover, Lin Yanchao learned from his career so much, which also puzzled Shen Jiu.

The dignified Hanlin actually went to be a pro-people official and was willing to go down. As a turbidity current, in addition to making money wholeheartedly, what other pursuits do you have?

But after Shen Jiu heard Lin Yanchao say that he wanted to do something for the people, he had a better view. Although he thinks that living above the temple, Lin Yanchao can better settle the world, and the pattern of any pro-people official seems to be a little smaller.

But Shen Jiu was still moved by Lin Yanchao's words and decided to say something for him in front of Shen Shixing.

After speaking, the subordinates on the side told Ye Xianggao and Weng Zhengchun that they asked to see each other.

Lin Yanchao suddenly remembered that Ye Xianggao and Weng Zhengchun were both famous figures in history, and as for Chen Yinglong, Lin Cai was not a person in the pool, and he was not the one who came to the examination room for a three-day tour.

If they are named on the gold list, selected by the Jishi Pavilion, assigned where to be an official, or want to stay in Beijing to study and enter Taixue after falling off the list, someone will have to help them.

When Lin Yanchao was in Beijing, he didn't have to worry about it, but he was going to leave Beijing tomorrow.

Although Lu Yicheng was promoted to the judge of Dali Temple, he and Ye Xianggao were only general friends and would not be enthusiastic to help.

So Lin Yanchao thought about it, and he had to ask Shen Jiu.

And as far as Lin Yanchao knows, Shen Jiu can help more than that.

Lin Yanchao said to Shen Jiu: "Brother Shen, after I leave Beijing, if someone says that it is my hometown classmate who comes to the door to ask for help from my teacher, please also ask Brother Shen to take care of me as well." ”

The word Zhao Fu Lin Yanchao slightly accentuated his tone, Shen Jiu knew what Lin Yanchao meant, his fellow villagers went to Beijing to take the exam, and they also had the meaning of asking him to pass the joint.

Shen Jiu said solemnly: "The examination is a national talent ceremony, and the rest of you and the elder of the pavilion are easy to talk about, but this favor can't help." ”

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Brother Shen, as far as I know, the second son of Shoufu, the eldest son of his teacher, and Zhu Guozuo, this time they are all candidates for the exam...... I also know that the teacher is fair and strict, and the deputy examiner can always tell Brother Shen. ”

Lin Yanchao's words mean that he will be absolutely fair, and he will only talk about personal feelings.

According to the author, in the eleventh year of Wanli in history, Shen Shixing's eldest son Shen Yongmao and Zhang Siwei's second son Zhang Jiazheng will not be titled on this gold list, and Zhu Guozuo even won the champion (Zhu Guozuo was raised in Shen Shixing's family since he was a child and studied with his sons).

Sometimes the joint is not to let yourself squeeze others on the list, but to avoid being stepped on by others after passing the exam. If it weren't for Shen Shixing's forcible search for the scroll in the eighth year of Wanli, Lin Yanchao would have fallen to Sun Mountain.

The examiner of the examination, generally in the cabinet, is a rotation of people who have not served as the chief examiner.

Now among the three auxiliary ministers, Zhang Siwei is the chief examiner of Wanli for five years, and Shen Shixing is the chief examiner of Wanli for eight years, so the chief examiner of Wanli for eleven years can undoubtedly only be Yu Youding.

Yu Youding is honest and honest (afraid of being a cadre), this joint is not easy to pass, so Lin Yanchao thought of the deputy chief exam.

Shen Jiu knew what Lin Yanchao meant, and said in a low voice: "The deputy examiner heard that it is Xu Guo, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials. ”

The deputy chief examiner of the examination is also a popular candidate for the cabinet, and Xu Guo's current qualifications are entirely possible to replace Zhang Siwei in the cabinet and become the third assistant.

In the cabinet again, Zhang Siwei is standing behind Jin Shang. So behind Xu Guo, there is a Hui businessman.

Xu Guo is familiar with Lin Yanchao, and he can repair a letter to ask him to take care of it.

Soon Shen Jiu got up and took his leave.

Before saying goodbye, Shen Jiu took out a ticket and said to Lin Yanchao: "This is a silver bill of exchange of two thousand taels, most of the Jin merchants in the capital, Zonghai can hold this ticket to remit into silver." ”

Lin Yanchao was taken aback when he saw this silver ticket. Shen Jiu stuffed it into Lin Yanchao's hands and said: "This is the intention of the elder of the pavilion, the matter of seeking the revenge of the officials, there will always be a case in the future, it is a long way to go to Fujian, and it is also convenient for Zong Hai to be by his side, so don't shirk." ”

Lin Yanchao was stunned with the ticket, unable to say a word.

Although Shen Shixing said that he would help him recover, if the emperor really refused, Shen Shixing could not do anything. For example, in history, after Gu Xiancheng offended the emperor and went into the wilderness, the officials recommended officials to the Son of Heaven several times, and listed Gu Xiancheng's name first, but the emperor did not use it, and there was no way.

Then Shen Shixing took out this money, which means that it is a matter of recovery, I will pay attention to it for you, if it doesn't work, this money should be repaid to you.

Two thousand taels is a lot for Shen Shixing.

Shen Shixing is from a poor family, and even if he becomes the first assistant in the future, the chips in his hand cannot be compared with Zhang Siwei.

However, it can be seen from this that the relationship between himself and Shen Shixing is still inferior to Lin Yanchao, Lin Hydrocarbon, and Lin Chengyi.

Shen Jiu saw that Lin Yanchao didn't speak, thinking that he had a problem in his heart and was about to speak. But seeing that Lin Yanchao decisively accepted the bill of exchange, put it into the small box next to the bed, and said: "When the teacher arrives at this time, he still puts Yanchao in his heart, and the disciples don't know how to repay it." Please Brother Shen tell me on my behalf that no matter when and where, as long as the teacher says a word, Yanchao will serve as a dog and horse. ”

Shen Jiu was overjoyed and said: "Hearing Yanchao's words, the elder will be happy." It's okay, the foolish brother will go back to his life. Yanchao, you will leave Beijing tomorrow, and you need to be healthy and sick today, so you don't have to send each other off. ”

Shen Jiu stood up, Lin Yanchao took Shen Jiu's hand and advised: "Junior brother can't send Brother Shen far away, when parting, the junior brother will try this time, please help me pay more attention." ”

Shen Jiu sighed: "Zong Hai is really a person who values friendship, Shen didn't make a mistake with your friend. This matter is on me, and then let them go directly to the Shen Mansion to find me. ”

After Shen Jiu left, Chen Jichuan entered and said, "Ye Xianggao, they are still outside. The master has to hurry tomorrow morning, and you are seriously ill again, so it is better not to see you."

Lin Yanchao looked very tired and said: "They have come all the way to Beijing, and they are all my friends, how can they not see them." ”

After speaking, Lin Yanchao took out the bill of exchange in the box and said to Chen Jichuan: "Here are two thousand taels, you take advantage of the fact that it is not dark yet, and go to the money village for me to redeem it first." ”

Seeing this, Chen Jichuan smiled and said, "Two thousand taels, this is really a charcoal in the snow." ”

Lin Yanchao shook his head and said: "It's not for your own use, after you redeem the money, you will first take eight hundred taels and send it to Guo Zhengyu, tell him to recuperate, and send the rest to the students' homes in the prison of the Criminal Department. ”

Chen Jichuan was stunned when he heard this: "Master, have you given away these two thousand taels of silver?" ”

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Seeing that Lin Yanchao had made up his mind, Chen Jichuan didn't ask anymore, put the money in his arms and left.

After a while, Ye Xianggao and Weng Zhengchun entered.

Several of them saw that Lin Yanchao was sick and was dismissed, but they were all upset about Lin Yanchao, and then shed tears.

Lin Yanchao didn't think that he had exchanged feelings with them in the past three years.
