"Don't worry about this." Luo Xin smiled and said, "When I was the magistrate of Maritime Site and Hangzhou, I often came here for breakfast. The old man knew me."

"oh……"

Xu Shixing couldn't help but sigh in his heart and realized his shortcomings.

Look at Luo Xin, who has gone deep into the people, no wonder he has achieved such great success. He couldn't help but look ashamed to say:

"The officials should learn from the adults."

Luo Xin was stunned, then laughed and said, "Do you think I am going deep into the people? Understand the sufferings of the people?"

"Isn't it?" Xu Shixing was also stunned.

"It's not that there is no reason for this, but the main reason is not this."

"What is that?" Xu Shixing asked curiously.

"Because I am a foodie, the best food is not in restaurants, but in these snacks, this is the purest local food. So, when I was in Hangzhou, I ate all kinds of snacks in Hangzhou."

"Ah?" Xu Shixing only felt that the idol in his heart was shattered.

"Here you come!"

Luo Xin smiled and signaled that at this time, the old man brought three bowls of wontons over. Luo Xin picked up the spoon and said:

"Start eat!"

Seeing Luo Xin's delicious food, Xu Shixing also felt his appetite wide. In less than a quarter of an hour, Luo Xin ate all the bowl of wontons, touched his stomach and said:

"This is nostalgia. You can't eat such pure wontons in the capital."

The old man's eyes were laughing into a crack when he heard this. After the three of them finished eating, Xu Shixing wanted to pay. When he touched him, he looked embarrassed and looked at his face. He was in a hurry and did not bring the money. Lu Daqing took out the copper coins and handed them to the old man. The three of them stood up and walked towards the Maritime Bureau.

"Sir, what are we doing today?"

"I've done nothing. I haven't come to Hangzhou for a long time. Today I'll travel around. By the way, I'll go to West Lake today."

"Ah?" Xu Shixing looked at Luo Xin in surprise: "This..."

"Don't worry." Luo Xin said lightly: "The Xu Mansion has been given a time limit, and the Jinyiwei is watching, so there is nothing to worry about."

"But...even if this transaction is completed, what about the future? What about those pirates? What should I do?"

"Start first, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin smiled and said, "We are putting pressure on the Xu Mansion. I acted like waiting to see that the Xu Mansion could not fulfill His Majesty's order and preparing to search the house. This will make the Xu Mansion not dare to be scammers and complete the task with the most positive attitude and the shortest time. You must know that the Xu Mansion is used to being arrogant. If they do not put pressure on him, they may not do their best. I don't want to really search the Xu Mansion."

"Understood!"

Xu Shixing not only admired Luo Xin's wisdom, but also admired Luo Xin's mind. If someone else had such a grudge against Xu Jie, he would have been looking forward to raiding the Xu Mansion, but Luo Xin did not have this idea. After thinking about it, he asked tentatively:

"You really don't want to search the Xu Mansion?"

"I don't want to!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "Xu Jie and I are a personal grudge. We cannot affect the entire Xu Mansion just because of Xu Jie. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty still needs Xu Jie today, and King Yu also needs Xu Jie."

Xu Shixing was silent for a moment and said, "Mr. Luo, are you really ready to support King Yu?"

"Do I have a choice?" Luo Xin smiled faintly.

"That's right!" Xu Shixing couldn't help but smile.

"Ru Mo, what do you mean?"

In fact, Luo Xin's other important task this time came to Hangzhou, which is to completely pull Xu Shixing into his own camp. Don't forget that if Luo Xin did not appear, Xu Shixing would be the top scorer and would also join the cabinet in the future.

Xu Shixing is just young now, and his wisdom and means in the officialdom are still immature. As he grows older, his experience in the officialdom is definitely at the level of the leader in the officialdom. How could Luo Xin let go of such a talent?

Xu Shixing fell into silence. In fact, he also favored King Yu, not King Jing. King Yu was generous. In the hearts of scholars, this was a wise king. King Jing was violent. If he became an emperor, it would be a nightmare for scholars and a nightmare for the Ming Dynasty.

But he also understood in his heart that Luo Xin asked him what he meant, not asking him whether he supported King Yu. Instead, he was asking him if he would like to join Luo Xin's camp.

You should know that there are several camps supporting King Yu.

Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Luo Xin. These three are the largest camps, and there are some small camps that can be ignored.

In fact, Xu Shixing now has no choice but to choose between Gao Gong and Luo Xin. Now that he has completely offended Xu Jie, he can only choose one between Gao Gong and Luo Xin.

Of course, he had another choice, that is, he would not participate in this matter, and who would love to sleep. Whoever he would become an emperor had nothing to do with me.

But how could an aspiring scholar make such a choice?

Scholars with this mentality have long since resigned from office and returned to study and study.

Xu Shixing was silent, and Luo Xin didn't say anything. Luo Xin knew that he would give Xu Shixing time to think, so the group came to West Lake and rode a pleasure boat with wine and food on it.

There are only two people in the cabin of this pleasure boat, Luo Xin and Xu Shixing. Lu Daqing brought four guards outside, while the other guards rented two more pleasure boats and followed behind.

Luo Xin and Xu Shixing were chatting together. Xu Shixing was obviously not in a state. Later, the two of them didn't speak, and Xu Shixing fell into thinking.

Xu Shixing could not be alone, he also had ambitions and ambitions. The choice he had to make now was just between Gao Gong and Luo Xin.

From the obvious perspective, most people will choose Gao Gong. There is no need to say the reason, Gao Gong is the second auxiliary to the cabinet. What is Luo Xin?

A left-handed son of the Zhanshi Mansion.

This is simply a position of falling out of favor. Will there be a future with Luo Xin?

Although Luo Xin is also the teacher of King Yu, Gao Gong and Xu Jie have been serving as King Yu for longer than Luo Xin.

Xu Shixing naturally did not know Luo Xin's position in King Yu's heart. In his opinion, King Yu must have valued Gao Gong and Xu Jie.

but……

When he defected to Gao Gong, he followed Xu Jie at the beginning, so he naturally followed Xu Jie's arrangements and did a lot of things that offend Gao Gong. Will Gao Gong trust him and take him in?

Literatures are sometimes very honest. Even if a person who follows Xu Jie is sincerely favored Gao Gong, he will be looked down upon. It is difficult to gain the trust of others.

Regardless of Xu Jie's personality, Xu Shixing actually targeted the Xu family in Hangzhou. The Xu family was in this area and had nothing to do with Xu Shixing. How could such a person gain Gao Gong's trust?

Even if he expresses his feelings, those stubborn people will not believe it, but will instead look down on him even more.

However, Luo Xin is different.
