Zhan Ming drove a carriage out of Lin Mansion.

It was time for the capital to be curfew at this time. It was just a curfew, but it was tight inside and loose outside, which means the Forbidden City was tight inside and loose outside.

Lin Yanchao picked up the curtain and looked at it, but saw that there were no carriages or sedan chairs on the streets in the capital. At this time, when he went out, he either went to a concert or a casino.

On the empty street, Lin Yanchao drove by, but saw the front of the carriage hanging on the Zhan Shi Mansion, and the two lanterns from the "Hanlin Courtyard" flashed. The soldiers who were patrolling the night were avoiding it from afar and did not dare to go forward to investigate.

Putting down the curtain of the car, Lin Yanchao was moved to remember what Zhang Juzheng said, knowing that he could not do it.

What is doing it even though you know it cannot be done?

It is the place where righteousness lies and ignores death.

Even if there are thousands of people, I will go.

However, even though he knew that he could not do it, he was not Lin Yanchao's Confucianism and Taoism.

Just like this time, if it is really impossible to do anything, Lin Yanchao will never let himself get involved, but avoid it from afar, and even if he doesn't take any harm, he is considered to have a conscience.

Therefore, when Lin Yanchao decides whether he will take this step, he must ask Shen Shixing for advice and then make a decision on his own.

When he arrived in front of Shen Mansion, Lin Yanchao found that there were many carriages and sedan chairs parked outside the door.

Why is it so late? There are so many people walking around in Shen Shixing’s mansion? Lin Yanchao was secretly surprised in his heart. When he walked to the gate of the mansion, he saw a group of people coming out.

When Lin Yanchao saw this, he immediately avoided the road.

Who is the one who came out?

He was Zeng Shengwu, Minister of Works, Wang Zhuan, Minister of Personnel, and five or six other officials, all of whom were senior officials of the Ministry of Education, and they were all hard-core confidants of the former court of the court.

Seeing someone beside the road, Zeng Shengwu subconsciously glanced. After seeing that it was Lin Yanchao, Zeng Shengwu stopped and said gently to Lin Yanchao: "Yes, Zonghai,."

When did Lin Yanchao see Zeng Shengwu talking to him in such a kind manner, he said, "The lower official has met Da Sikong."

Zeng Shengwu nodded without saying anything, and then left.

Lin Yanchao saw Zeng Shengwu's eyes with a sad look, and he was so arrogant that he had never seen him before.

Lin Yanchao of Shenfu was familiar with the road. When the doorman saw it, he immediately asked him to go to the mansion without stopping him.

Bypassing a white wall, he met a servant from Shen Mansion. Lin Yanchao asked, "Where is the teacher?"

The servant said, "Georg, you are talking to a new official, I will inform you now."

Lin Yanchao nodded, and soon the servant returned to Lin Yanchao and said, "George, please come into the house to accompany the guests."

When Shen Shixing met guests in the past, he often asked Lin Yanchao to introduce the senior officials to know him. This was Shen Shixing's support for Lin Yanchao.

Lin Yanchao came outside the door, and the servant immediately opened the curtain for him and reported: "Lin Zhongyun from the Zhan Mansion!"

Lin Yanchao walked into the outer room and heard Shen Shixing in the inner room laughing and said, "Jianwu, it really means that Cao Cao has arrived."

Lin Yanchao opened the curtain and walked into the inner room when he heard this, but saw Shen Shixing sitting opposite a middle-aged man in a blue robe.

There was still half a watermelon in the ice plate on the table. Several maids cut the iced watermelon into small pieces, then picked the melon grains with a silver spoon, and handed them to the two of them.

As a result, both of them ate very elegantly, and the melon juice was not splashed onto their beards.

The middle-aged man looked up and down at Lin Yanchao, and smiled and said to Shen Shixing: "It's better to meet than to be famous. Meeting is worse than being famous. It's worthy of being a master of the Pavilion."

The other party spoke with a Zhejiang voice.

Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Is it just my high-level football? He and Zhu Shaoqin went in and out, Chengming, didn't Jianwu listen to him?"

The other party said, "I remembered that Master Zhu Nian mentioned Lin Sanyuan in the letter."

Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then you are no longer outsiders."

After hearing what Shen Shixing said, Lin Yanchao had guessed who the other party was, so he saluted: "If you don't dare to take it, how dare you mention the word "Three Yuan" in front of your mentor and Senior Chen. Senior Chen's name was already well-known when he was in the Hanlin Academy."

After Lin Yanchao finished speaking, both of them laughed.

It turned out that the person who sat with Shen Shixing was a Jinshi in the second year of Longqing. Chen Yiguan from Yin County, Zhejiang Province was a fellow villager with Zhu Geng in the same year.

At that time, Chen Yiguan was also a celebrity, so why did he become famous? It was at the second year of Wanli.

At that time, Wang Xilie, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, wanted to take Zhang Jingxiu, so he privately instructed him to mark the paper.

As the examiner of the room, Chen Yiguan not only did not obey Wang Xilie's instructions, but also smeared Zhang Jingxiu's paper straight and criticized the word "not understood" on the paper.

The official of the house directly dismissed the paper, which made Zhang Jingxiu's paper not even qualified to fill in the list. The chief examiner Lu Diaoyang was very uneasy to offend Zhang Juzheng. Chen Yiguan told Lu Diaoyang that if he offends the chief assistant, then I will do things one by one and will never implicate others.

Therefore, Zhang Jingxiu failed to pass the spring examination in the second year of Wanli. He waited until the chief examiner of Shenshi, and he opened the back door for him.

After offending Zhang Juzheng, Chen Yiguan was famous all over the world and won the reputation of being a leader. However, he could not make it in the officialdom, so he simply went home to live in leisure.

After Zhang Juzheng retired, Shen Shixing recommended him to the emperor, and Chen Yiguan returned to the Hanlin Academy.

The maid also cut a piece of iced watermelon for Lin Yanchao. Lin Yanchao took a few bites and calmed down a little. At this time, Chen Yiguan took out a letter and said, "This time I went to Beijing and passed by Suzhou, and I visited Wang Taicang. Wang Taicang asked me to bring a letter to the Ge Master to take a look."

Shen Shixing took the letter after hearing this and opened it in front of Lin Yanchao.

After seeing it, Shen Shixing shook his head and said, "It's now, Wang Taicang can really sit on Diaoyutai."

Chen Yiguan asked: "Gei Master, what did Wang Taicang say in the letter?"

Shen Shixing said, "After Duke Zhang Wenzhong retired, many ministers and I recommended Wang Taicang to His Majesty, hoping that he would recover and even enter the cabinet to preside over the overall situation. However, Wang Taicang learned from Yan Ziling and sent him to the mountains and forests. This letter was written to resign my kindness and not leave me any sympathy."

Chen **** I came to Beijing these days and felt that after Duke Wen Zhong retired, the court was not as good as before. If Wang Taicang could recover, with the trust of the emperor in today, even if he did not enter the cabinet, he could help the cabinet. It's a pity, it's a pity."

Shen Shixing sighed when he heard this: "What you said is not what I think in my heart."

Lin Yanchao thought in his heart that Shen Shixing had a good relationship with Zeng Shengwu, Wang Zhuan and others, and maintained good relations with Zhang Juzheng's old party. He recommended Wang Xijue to the emperor, and Chen Yiguan, ministers like Chen Yiguan who had offended Zhang Juzheng in the past returned to the court.

Which side does Shen Shixing stand on?

Thinking of his purpose here, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but hesitate whether to ask Shen Shixing for advice.
