Chapter three hundred and ninety first battle of gentlemen

Inside the Hanlin Academy Review Hall.

Lin Yanchao, Zhang Maoxiu, Liu Yukui and several Hanlin officials all planned to submit the edict to the cabinet. Even Xiao Liangyou, the chief editor of the Ming Dynasty, wrote an edict, which was submitted to the cabinet after Chen Siyu's review.

Everyone knows that the Hanlin candidate who rotates in the cabinet will be decided in August. These people are all interested in competing for the opportunity to rotate in the cabinet. Therefore, they all want to use this edict to draw up the imperial edict to make their articles appreciated by the cabinet and the emperor and create opportunities for themselves.

This time, six or seven Hanlin people submitted drafts of the Pingyi Imperial Examination to the cabinet, and not many of the twenty Hanlin people in the Prosecutor's Office were occupied.

The Hanlin who did not draft the imperial edict either had already taken the rotation of the cabinet, and some of them felt that they were not well-educated and did not make any disputes.

These Hanlin people changed their mindset and started talking about it.

"I didn't expect Lin Zonghai to make this happen this time. It was just that if he didn't make a sound, he would make a big splash."

"When I entered the Hanlin Academy, Lin Xiu has always been willing to be under Xiao Xiu. Today's actions have made me admire him."

"I think it's Xiao Editor-in-Chief, who is the general editor. This time he is here to compete for the rotation of the cabinet again. What's the use of his edict? How could Chen Xueshen release him at this time? But as soon as Lin Xiu entered Hanyuan, he gave the general editor to Xiao Editor. This move is to retreat as soon as he moves!"

A Hanlin clapped and said, "I understand that if you don't fight on weekdays, you won't fight. No one will fight with you! As soon as this person enters my Hanyuan, he doesn't plan to get enough experience. He goes to the rotating cabinet as soon as he comes."

Several Hanlins nodded and said, "This is right, right. Lin Zonghai is really amazing!"

There are many smart people in the Hanlin Academy, and they can analyze the inside story at once.

At this time, a Hanlin was a little dissatisfied and said, "You are too early to say this. You should make a splash, look at it with admiration, and look up to it. You also need his articles to be appreciated by the chief assistant, otherwise what's the use?"

One person smiled and said, "But even if Lin Zonghai doesn't use it this time, he will always be his turn next time."

One of the people suddenly said, "In short, Lin Zonghai is very cunning, so be careful when you are dating."

Lin Yanchao was writing an article. He heard several Hanlins whispering on the side. Although he didn't hear anything they said, he could guess a rough idea.

Even if you are a good person who is in the yamen who never fights or seeks things, and who has to calm down when encountering things, there will be people who will find fault. This time, you are also doing things right, doing things straight, and competing with others uprightly, and you are not afraid of others saying anything behind your back. At most, you can only have a few sour words.

Is it a mediocre person not to be jealous of others?

Lin Yanchao continued to rush the manuscript. He wrote the regulations that he would pay the Ming Dynasty's Constitution tomorrow. As for Zhang Maoxiu and others on the side, they were a little upset.

Zhang Maoxiu looked at Lin Yanchao from time to time. This time, Lin Yanchao's actions made him miscalculate completely. He also knew that his article was hasty and it was difficult to meet. As for Lin Yanchao, he made a decision and then acted, and he had already made a draft of it. In comparison, he was much different.

However, he believed that so many Hanlin people would not be able to draft edicts. Lin Yanchao would most likely not have.

As for Liu Yukui, Xiao Liangyou chatted all the time and looked calm.

Just then, footsteps came from outside.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

When the Hanliners who were still talking in the review hall heard that they put down their hands and walked out of the room together.

For the Hanlin Academy, it was not a strange thing to issue the emperor's decree, so it was not too unexpected.

Everyone came outside the door and saw that it was Sun Long, the eunuch of the Sili Prison.

At this time, Sun Long raised the imperial edict with one hand and said, "Lin Yanchao, a compiler of the Hanlin Academy, received the imperial edict!"

All Hanlin looked at Lin Yanchao in surprise.

Lin Yanchao was very calm and walked up to him and bowed: "My minister Lin Yanchao received the order."

When Sun Long saw Lin Yanchao, he smiled and of course opened the imperial edict: "Hanlin Academy is the place where the imperial court can sacrifice. Lin Yanchao, the top scholar in Gengchen, has elegant articles and profound teachings. I would like to give him a piece of imperial pen and Duan inkstone. I hope that he will be lazy and arrogant, and be self-reliant and dedicated to the public."

Lin Yanchao said immediately: "I will receive the order."

Lin Yanchao raised the order, but saw that all the Hanlin people came up to congratulate him: "Brother Zonghai, congratulations!"

"Brother Zonghai, it must be the one you drafted to get the use of the emperor."

Of course, the Hanlin people who came to congratulate were not all so sincere, such as Zhang Maoxiu, Liu Yukui, and Xiao Liang.

Xiao Liangyou smiled bitterly and said, "I lost another thing. I, Xiao, was born in Jingchu, and I was born in Qu Yuan's hometown. I was arrogant and talented. But after meeting Lin Yanchao, I was suppressed by him everywhere. I really gave birth to Yu, so why did I live in the future."

Zhang Maoxiu snorted and said, "If you lose, you will lose. Lin Yanchao will be upright. Let's go and congratulate him, otherwise my colleagues will say that I'm too stingy and will not look good."

Xiao Liangyou said, "Brother Zhang, he is really arrogant."

Zhang Maoxiu shook his head and said, "I would rather not have this kind of demeanor."

So in front of his colleagues, the two congratulated Lin Yanchao together. Zhang Maoxiu said: "Zonghai, everyone is fighting for gentlemen. This time you won, I am convinced."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Brother Zhang said it well. A gentleman has no dispute. He must be ejaculated. Let me give you a glass of wine to Brother Zhang later."

When Zhang Maoxiu and Lin Yanchao talked, they were quoted from the words of Confucius in the Analects of Confucius. A gentleman must shoot if he has no disputes! He bows and rises with his competing and drinks with his lower body. The struggle is a gentleman.

It means that a gentleman has nothing to fight with others. If there is a dispute, it is archery. When shooting archery, the two first bow and give in to each other, then go on stage and finish shooting, then bow and retreat, and drink together.

Zhang Maoxiu said that we are a gentleman's fight, and Lin Yanchao said that a gentleman's fight is an arrow. Now that we have finished shooting, we will sit down and have a drink together.

Zhang Maoxiu was coming to congratulate Lin Yanchao on perfunctory. Seeing that he was so sincere and without any arrogance, he was a little impressed in his heart. He bowed to Lin Yanchao and left.

"Brother Xiao also wants to drink with me?"

Did Xiao Liang answer Lin Yanchao's question? Instead, he said to himself: "Shooting is to correct oneself, and then he will be able to do it. If you don't blame others for defeating oneself, you will just seek to do it."

After saying that, Xiao Liangyou bowed to Lin Yanchao and left.

Seeing the two of them like this, Lin Yanchao followed them. After receiving the imperial edict, he said to Sun Long: "Is it a good idea for Eunuch Sun to take this trip, come in and sit in."

Sun Long smiled and said, "Where is our family free? We have to go back to Master Long live as a job."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "If you say anything, I'll send it to Eunuch Sun."

"I'm working hard for the top scholar."

Lin Yanchao sent Sun Long out of the Hanlin Academy and handed him a piece of silver and said, "It depends on Eunuch Sun."
