Chapter 218 Lin Shen Yin and Wind Rise(1/2)
Li Fan had to worry, after all, he concealed the truth, how long could the characters like Wen Baishan be deceived? It was really unknown... Moreover, if the court knew about it and he knew the real news... then he could start running for his own life.
This Yangzhou is really not a good place... He couldn't help but sigh.
But now there is nothing we can do, so we can only wait and see what changes are.
This feeling is very passive.
"Notify Chen Youting and the others and ask them to write another copy of the articles they wrote this time and send them to Manmo Study."
Li Fan thought about it and said that although it was obvious that a big shot like Lin Jianshen could not be bribed, he decided to use the same trick again.
Chen Youting and others have so many "model essays" references, and I think there is no problem with the article. One is like last time, doing prevention, and the other is that they are their disciples, so they should be named.
Zhu Feng said "yes" in secret and then left.
After he left, Li Fan fell into hesitation.
Will his own article be published as last time?
After all, this article is really speaking out on the government, and it is a bet!… “Lin Jianshen…he actually came.”
When the Governor's Office, Helian Chengpo was silent for a long time when he heard the news.
"Sir, Lin Jianshen is deeply favored by the emperor. I'm afraid the purpose of coming to Yangzhou this time is not that simple..." Murong Hu spoke solemnly.
Heliancheng said, "He came, and the emperor did not know me... In the style of the emperor, since he sent such a capable general, he must have made a big deal in Yangzhou... and watch the changes, but can only watch the changes!"
He said twice in a row and watched the changes, revealing the fear hidden in his heart! Because when he thought of the emperor, he felt a sense of powerlessness.
In front of the saint... he didn't even have the courage to think! Even his generals who were thick on the outside and thin on the inside could only obey! Time flies.
In the past few days, almost the entire Yangzhou City has been paying attention to every move in Yangzhou Imperial College.
Especially the major families have sent people to inquire about the news.
There are countless rumors in the market.
Some people say that Lin Jianshen saw an article by a talented man, which was shocked and praised his talent for his worldly talent... Some people say that Lin Jianshen came to Yangzhou because he had an illegitimate son in Yangzhou. This time, it was to take care of his illegitimate son that came to Yangzhou... The distance was rumored! In the blink of an eye, two days passed! "Young Master, finally inserted it!"
Today, Su Mingyu arrived and reported to Zhou Wenyuan, saying: "The person responsible for the diet in the Imperial Academy is the daughter of a vendor in the east of the city. She would stand by her for a while when serving the dishes every day. Moreover, the woman was smart and good at observing her expressions, and could get some news!"
"I spent 30,000 taels and finally bought her."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenyuan was very happy! "Well done!"
He praised him. When he heard that it was Lin Jianshen, he was really shocked. Even if he put a spy, he was frightened, afraid that after Lin Jianshen would find out, he would seek death.
The people who are arranged now are getting benefits! "At present, is there any news?"
He continued to ask questions.
Su Mingyu said: "According to her, Lord Lin looked happy when he reviewed the first papers he handed in, and his face was filled with admiration. That day, Lord Lin had a very good appetite!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenyuan was overjoyed.
The first person to hand in the paper was the top ten talents under his command! This shows that the articles of the top ten talents were deeply rooted in Lin Jianshen's heart.
Stay stable! "Very good, very good! Keep paying attention. No matter what, we must be clear about Lin Jianshen's every move!"
He continued to give orders, his face full of complacency and satisfaction. In this way, the Yangzhou imperial examination can be said to be completely monopolized.
"Mr. Zhou, is there good news?"
At this time, Gao Nanshi also walked in and saw the joy on Zhou Wenyuan's face, and he didn't feel relieved.
"To be honest, I arranged an eyeliner around Lin Jianshen. According to what she said, the articles of the top ten talents under my command were very favored by Lin Jianshen. I want to come to Jie Yuan to decide."
Zhou Wenyuan spoke with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Gao Nanshi was even more happy! As a result, the worries in his heart for the past few days disappeared instantly.
"Now there are rumors in the city, and the major families are also a little uneasy. We should also let some news to calm people's hearts..." Gao Nanshi spoke.
"Well, let Lord Gao make arrangements as appropriate... It's time for me to go to the Governor's Office. I have been to Yangzhou for so long and have not visited this Governor Yigua!"
A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.
...The Qin family.
The Qin family had speculated about the results of the imperial examination.
Lin Jianshen's arrival also made Qin Shangran's old foxes like the officialdom smell differently, so he has been worried these days.
"Brother, why are we afraid of it?
On the one hand, it is the Wang family, and on the other hand, it is the eldest prince. No matter where we are in power, we can all rise to the top."
Qin Shangjian was very open-minded and smiled and said, "Anyway, it's impossible that Li Fan and other waste were beaten, what are you afraid of?"
Qin Shangran was still confused.
"Uncle and second master, news has come!"
At this time, a butler outside walked quickly, came to the ears of the two of them, and whispered one by one.
In an instant, Qin Shangran and Qin Shangjian both looked very happy! "So, Lin Jianshen has not changed anything!"
Qin Shangjian laughed and said, "Brother, are you relieved now?"
Jie Yuan must have come from the top ten talents, or the Wang family..." Qin Shangran's face also dissipated in an instant, and he smiled: "It seems that I am too worried... By the way, how is the business of the bookstore recently?"
When Qin Shangran asked a question, Qin Shangjian's face became ugly again and said, "Then Cao Xueqin seems to be non-existent, and she couldn't find it no matter how she searched... Moreover, he also released the second volume of "The Story of Stone", which is even more popular! It can't be stopped..." Qin Shangran's brow sank instantly, "Do you just leave it alone?"
Qin Shang Jian bit his teeth and said, "I have an idea... Otherwise, we can buy the small Manmo Study directly!"
It was helpless to be forced to this point! There was no way, who made them not have a book called "The Story of the Stone"... In fact, he didn't say anything about it. Now he wanted to buy Manmo Study School, not only their Qin Family Bookstore.
Yangzhou Bookstore, Zhu Family Bookstore, etc.... have this intention, it is very simple. Since you can't find Cao Xueqin, you have to buy Manmo Study, which is equivalent to buying the stone recorder.
No matter how expensive it is, it can only be done.
At present, almost all the Wang family's collections have been lost. Now they are unsold. There are no more popular books like "The Story of the Stone", so the Qin family will only be more difficult! Qin Shangran nodded indifferently and said, "When you have an idea, go and do it quickly!"
...Governor's Office.
"Zhou Wenyuan is here to visit!"
Zhou Wenyuan got off the carriage and spoke loudly.
At the Governor's Mansion, Helian Chengpo heard the report and suddenly shook, saying, "This kid is finally here."
He had known for a long time that since the other party was the eldest prince, he would definitely come to the Governor's Mansion this time.
It's just a matter of time.
"please!"
Heliancheng broke the opening.
Soon, Zhou Wenyuan had already walked into Helian Mansion. When he passed by the garden, a fishy smell came, which made Zhou Wenyuan frown. After looking over, he found that there was a yak there! "How can this... this thing be raised in the mansion?"
He couldn't help but speak.
Murong Hu, who brought him into the mansion, had a slightly dark face, but he didn't show it, saying, "Lord Helian likes fresh yak milk every day."
Zhou Wenyuan couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's worthy of being the famous 'Yigua' in the world!"
Murong Hu's face became even more gloomy.
Immediately afterwards, they walked to the hall.
"Sir, Mr. Zhou is here."
Murong Hu spoke.
"Hahaha, Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou, you are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. When I arrived in Yangzhou, I wouldn't come to see me first. I am still the father-in-law of Your Highness, and I have a friendship with you!"
Helian Chengpo came with a smile.
Zhou Wenyuan just said a few words casually.
"Come on, I'll drink with wine, I'll drink Xiao Zhou's drinks for a while before talking about it!"
Heliancheng is broken and looks rough and generous.
But Zhou Wenyuan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Helian, there is no need. Wenyuan has important things to do this time."
Hearing this, Helian Chengpo said, "Oh?
OK, then if you have something to do, talk about it first!”
Zhou Wenyuan went straight to the point and said, "Wenyuan heard that Lord Helian's two daughters are beautiful and wise, and they are already at the age of young age. I wonder if it is true or false?"
He was straight to the point! A cold flashed in Heliancheng's eyes, but he still smiled and said, "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou, you are really well-informed! Why, the noble son of the capital wants to climb up with my Helian?"
Zhou Wenyuan smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness."
Your Highness! Hearing this, Helian Chengpo was stunned for a moment, showing a look of surprise, looking at Zhou Wenyuan, and said, "Xiao Zhou, are you kidding me again..." "No joke," Zhou Wenyuan shook his head and said, "When you are leaving, the eldest prince specifically instructed me.
He said that the sister of Miss Xiyue, Helian Yaoyue's talent, missed Miss Xiyue very much. Moreover, His Highness has always admired General Helian. If he could be with Miss Xiyue forever, he would be grateful."
He spoke very seriously.
But Helian Chengpo's eyelids twitched. He tried his best to suppress the anger in his eyes, so that he did not show any anger.
To be continued...
