The person who came was Wu Chunlai, who was wearing a thin black shirt and a gauze hat, dressed in casual spring clothes. The eyebrows are handsome, the big sleeves are fluttering, and he is still so handsome and chic.

"How did you get here? Is the private interview sympathetic to the people? Lin Jue asked with a smile.

"Hehe, Lin Jieyuan, I've been in the capital for a long time, what are you doing when you're busy? The official thought that you would visit me, but I waited and waited, but I didn't wait for your Lin Xie Yuan's shadow. No, this official can only come to visit you Lin Xie Yuan in person. Wu Chunlai smiled.

Lin Jue hurriedly said: "Oh, this is indeed down." I was supposed to visit Lord Wu, but I forgot about it when I was so busy. I also ask Lord Wu to forgive me. When I turn back, I will visit the house. ”

Wu Chunlai sneered and said, "Come on, come on, it doesn't mean much to ask you to go like this." Come, let's go over there and talk, this official is here to find you. ”

Lin Jue arched his hand and said: "Dare not obey your fate." By the way, how did Lord Wu know that I was here? ”

Wu Chunlai said lightly: "I can't even grasp your whereabouts, have you been fooling around in the capital for so many years?" ”

Lin Jue was silent, with a heart in his heart, and secretly admonished himself. This is the capital, and I thought that no one was paying attention to me, but in fact, my whereabouts were already under the eyes of others. We need to be cautious in our future actions. From this point of view, it is wise to move out of the small lord's mansion quickly.

Lin Jue followed behind Wu Chunlai, and the two slowly came to the carriage at the corner of the street. Wu Chunlai got into the carriage first, beckoned to Lin Jue, and said, "Come in and talk." ”

Lin Jue was stunned, but still sat in. With a bang, the door closed, the light in the carriage dimmed, and Wu Chunlai's smiling face instantly became gloomy.

"Little junior brother, you are very good. Is it a meta-solution? Awesome, awesome. Wu Chunlai said softly.

Lin Jue smiled: "Lord Wu smiled, this is really luck, I didn't expect that I would be able to solve the yuan anyway." ”

Wu Chunlai chuckled and said, "Really? I'd have thought of it a long time ago. ”

Lin Jue smiled: "My lord, this is love." This time it was really luck. There are many people who are better than me, but maybe my answer sheet was matched by the main exam. It's a fluke. ”

Wu Chunlai smiled and said, "Little junior brother, you still have some self-knowledge. How did you become Xie Yuan, don't you have any points in your heart? Why bother playing this sloppy eye in front of me? Shouldn't you thank me? ”

Lin Jue was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "What does Lord Wu mean by this?" What am I sloppy? How did I have anything to do with Lord Wu? ”

Wu Chunlai frowned and said, "Lin Jue, people can't be like this. If you receive the grace of others, even if you don't protect it, you don't have to erase it cleanly. Do you really think that the ghosts and gods do not know? You don't want to think about why the examiner Hu would help you. Why is it hinting at you. That's all I said hello behind my back. So I was mentally prepared for the fact that you had to solve the yuan, because I arranged this matter. ”

"What?" Lin Jue was surprised and said, "Why can't I understand Lord Wu's words at all?" ”

Wu Chunlai said: "Still pretending, do you have to ask me to say it?" Lord Hu, the chief examiner of Liangzhejiang Road, is my friend. I greeted him before Qiu Qiu and asked him to take more care of you. That's why he throws you a note, asks you to mark the test paper, and then identifies your test paper as the first one. You don't think it's a gods' help, do you? ”

"Notes? Mark? Lin Jue was even more confused.

"You can really pretend, Master Hu threw you a note, and asked you to write the three words 'Pi Xiuzai' in the test paper as a claim mark, and then recognize your identity, and then you can be the first. I know all about this, and I instructed him to do so, so why do you still pretend to be ignorant? That's not good. I'm not happy about you like this. Wu Chunlai shouted in a low voice.

Lin Jue was stunned for a long time, and after thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly laughed.

"Master Wu, I kind of understand, do you mean that I am Xie Yuan because you instructed the invigilator Lord Hu to cheat for me?"

"It's called a way, it's not called cheating, so you don't have to say it so ugly. Whoever wins the first place can solve the yuan, but the person who values me is better to take the first place. You don't have to thank me, you are my little brother, I should have helped you. Wu Chunlai said in a deep voice.

"Hahaha, Master Wu, I'm afraid you're mistaken. I've never seen a note, and I didn't write anything like Pi Xiuya on the answer sheet. I don't know where you learned about that, but ...... You may have been deceived. I didn't do any of that. As for this solution, in fact, I am not uncommon, how could I do cheating for this useless solution? Hehehe, Lord Wu must have made a mistake. Lin Jue laughed.

Wu Chunlai's thick eyebrows tightened, and he said coldly: "Lin Jue, people can't be ungrateful, this official didn't ask you for anything in return." But you don't admit it, that's not good, it's very bad. ”

Lin Jue spread his hands and said, "Why don't Lord Wu still believe it?" I, Lin Jue, disdain to cheat. Since you insist on it, I think we have to clarify the matter. I don't want to be saddled with a reputation for cheating. Lord Wu should have the right to read my autumn test papers, so you can take them out and see if I have written a mark. It's best to confront me with Master Hu, I want to know what the hell is going on. It really didn't work, so I went to the yamen myself to surrender and asked for a thorough investigation. ”

Wu Chunlai was stunned for a long time, and said suspiciously: "Are you serious...... Didn't write a mark? Did you really rely on your own ability to get it? ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "Then can there be a fake?" Is Lord Wu here to humiliate me? ”

Wu Chunlai pondered for a long time, and suddenly scolded in his heart. Because he realized that he might have been fooled by Hu Yongpei. After the end of the Liangzhejiang Road Autumn Examination, Hu Yongpei found himself as soon as he returned to Beijing, saying how hard and risky he worked hard and risky for Lin Jue's pass, and was almost discovered by other examiners. In the end, by communicating in the form of code text on the paper scroll, and then how to overcome public opinion, Lin Jue was named the first Xie Yuan Yunyun. In short, it is thrilling and sky-high, as if taking a big risk.

Wu Chunlai was originally a little dissatisfied with his appointment of Lin Jue as the first place Xie Yuan, and felt that he had gone too far. I just want Lin Jue to go to high school, and the point is that the understanding yuan is too high-profile, and it is easy to have problems during the review. But later, the test paper was reviewed and passed by the imperial court, and although Wu Chunlai was surprised, he was also relieved. Now it seems that this guy must have deceived himself, the reason why Lin Jue was able to win the championship in Qiu Qiu was simply because he did well in the exam, and the reason why there was no problem in the joint audit of the Ministry of Rites and the Political Affairs Hall was precisely because Lin Jue was good enough in the exam. In fact, this guy didn't help at all.

Wu Chunlai's teeth itched with hatred, and he also promised to help Hu Yongpei in the matter of Hu Yongpei's promotion to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but this guy completely deceived his promise. What's even more embarrassing is that he actually told the secret in front of Lin Jue today. This is no joke. Lin Jue said that he wanted the court to verify the matter and prove that he had not cheated, so didn't he make this matter public? Wouldn't that be your own life?

Wu Chunlai saw the opportunity quite quickly, how could he allow this matter to become out of control, so his mind turned sharply, and he said with a smile: "Little junior brother, why are you so excited, I'm just joking with you." Everything Shicai said was just a temptation to you. ”

"Tempt me? Is there a temptation in this matter? Saying that Xie Yuan in my cheating is a big crime of stealing the house and killing the head, Lord Wu is really good at laughing. Lin Jue sneered.

Wu Chunlai smiled and said, "Little junior brother, you don't understand this." I'm doing this for your own good. You are going to enter the government in the future, but I am afraid you don't know the sinister nature of officialdom and the hardships of people's hearts. In the future, many people will call you brothers, and on the surface, you will dig out your heart, and if you are not prepared, your words and deeds will be remembered by them, and your unintentional words will become evidence for them to denounce you. In order to climb up, they can do anything. So, I deliberately tested you and deliberately fabricated that story to make you deal with. If you really believe, then you are finished. If I had a different mind, I could have finished you with this. This is called the sinister officialdom. Very good, you are very good, you have withstood my temptation, and the officer is very pleased. Hehehe. ”

Lin Jue had a smile on his face, and he was extremely disdainful in his heart. Wu Chunlai is afraid that he will treat himself as a three-year-old child, so he can deceive himself? Obviously, Wu Chunlai really did something about his autumn exam, and really asked Master Hu from the Ministry of Rites to help him cheat.

recalled that a few days ago, on the way to Yushitai with that Master Hu, Hu Yongpei once asked if he had visited Wu Chunlai. I thought it was strange at the time, but now it's completely right. Hu Yongpei must have thought that he had some kind of relationship with Wu Chunlai at that time, otherwise how could Wu Chunlai take a big risk to help him with the autumn exam. So after he arrived in the capital, he should visit Wu Chunlai. Hu Yongpei may have been quick to talk for a while, so he asked such a question, and then stopped in time.

And the logical relationship of this matter, Lin Jue also clarified it. Wu Chunlai suddenly became so concerned about his entry into the office, and it was precisely because of the conversation in Hangzhou City. At that time, Wu Chunlai forced himself to be placed as an eyeliner by Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru's side to ventilate and report to them. At that time, he had not yet entered the ranks, and the reason why he could not work for him was delayed. Wu Chunlai should have been worried that he would resist passively, so he asked Hu Yongpei to cheat for him, and let himself be admitted to the imperial examination no matter what, so that he would have no reason to shirk.

In order to win himself over as their eyeliner, Wu Chunlai really took great pains. And the reason why he made him so interested was because of his special identity. He can listen to the news around Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, and even go in and out of the Liang Wang's mansion, for them, this is simply the best candidate.

"Is it so sinister in officialdom? Lord Wu turned out to be for my good. Teachable, taught. Since officialdom is so dangerous, I don't even dare to be an official. I can still cope with the big exam in the spring this time, and it may not be a good thing to get a jinshi. Lin Jue said with a smile.
