His Royal Highness sat opposite Lin Jian, looked up at his teacher, and asked, "Master Lin has been living in Yuezhou for more than a year, so he hasn't thought about returning to the court and Kuang Zheng Chaogang?" ”

"You are in the prime of life, and it is the time for you to show what you have learned in the court."

After Lin Jian heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then smiled dumbly: "The prince also said before, I was dismissed by His Majesty's personal order, and I can't go back if I want to go back to be an official." ”

Lin Jian is only 41 years old this year.

At his age, he is placed in the position of the squire of the six departments, and he belongs to a young man who is serious, because he is young, he still has a long way to go, and there is a lot of room for improvement, so in the prince's line, Lin Jian's status is very transcendent.

Take 10,000 steps back and say that even if he sits in the position of the head of the household and can no longer be promoted, the power of this position is enough for him to occupy a pivotal position in the prince's line.

"Master Lin, don't worry, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked the students to come, there will definitely be a way to invite Master Lin back to Chang'an."

Li Xu first looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he said in a low voice: "The eldest grandson of the Guozijian will return to his hometown at the end of the year, and this position will be vacant at that time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will try his best to win this position for Master Lin." ”

Guozi Priest Wine, from the third grade, compared with Lin Jian's previous fourth-grade household servant, it seems to be upgraded by one level on the surface, but in fact, the authority is inferior to the latter.

After all, the household department is the real yamen, and the Guozijian is only the highest educational institution in the Great Zhou.

Every year, a large number of eunuchs will graduate from the seven schools under the Guozijian and then enter the Great Zhou court, that is to say, as long as they are a few years of sacrificial wine, they will accumulate a large number of contacts and become the "principal" of the younger generation in the court.

Lin Jian glanced at Li Xu slightly, and said with a smile: "Scholars all over the world want to be in the position of the prince of the country, and I am naturally no exception, but even if it is His Royal Highness the Prince, it may not be easy to get this position." ”

"It's only May now, and the year-end matter will be talked about at the end of the year, if the imperial court really wants me to go to the head of the country, I naturally won't have any opinions."

Compared with the practical yamen of the six departments, the position of the prince of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine can accumulate a lot of prestige in a short period of time, if Lin Jian succeeds in this position, in the future, the power of the prince's family will suddenly increase.

Li Xu sat opposite Lin Jian and said in a low voice: "What Master Lin said is right, even His Royal Highness the Prince, it is not easy to win this position, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs the cooperation of Master Lin, and now there is still half a year before the end of the year, and in this half a year, Master Lin will contact the old friends in the court, so that they can speak for Master Lin in the court at the end of the year." ”

In the position of the prince of the priest wine, once there is a vacancy, the new candidates are generally elected by the court, if there are enough ministers to stand up and speak for Lin Jian, then it will be much easier for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do things.

Lin Jian frowned slightly.

No matter what he does in his life, it is smooth sailing, and he rarely asks for help, and asks him to write a letter in person to ask for someone because of an official position, and he really can't pull off this face.

However, the position of the country's priest wine did make him a little moved.

This Yuan Dagong sat in his place, and after slowly drinking a cup of tea, he suddenly thought of his own junior.

The position of the country's priest wine has always been held by a person of high moral character.

That is, as long as he has enough prestige, it will be much easier to sit up.

Lin Jian frowned and thought for a while, and then spoke: "Write a letter or not, it's not very urgent for the time being, but there is a junior in my Lin family who has come up with a novel thing, if it can be successfully made, it may be able to help this matter." ”

Li Xu's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What is Master Lin talking about?" ”

Lin Jian shook his head slightly: "I promised him, I can't talk about it to others." ”

"My junior, his family is a little poorer, and he is still counting on this novelty to make money, and I have made an agreement with him that I will not publish this thing for three years."

"Three years ......"

Li Xu frowned slightly, and said, "It's only half a year, and three years will definitely be too late." ”

Lin Jian nodded silently, then looked up at Li Xu, and said with a smile: "Has His Royal Highness the Prince brought any money?" ”

Li Xu was slightly stunned, and then nodded hurriedly: "I went out from Chang'an and brought a lot of money with me, how much does Master Lin cost?" ”

"I don't want money."

Lin Jian said with a smile: "My junior is a money-loving character, if His Royal Highness the Prince brings enough money, I can take His Royal Highness down to meet him and talk to him about this matter." ”

Li Xu had a smile on his face: "When students were in Chang'an City, they liked these novelties, I want to see what kind of novelty things can make Master Lin praise like this." ”

Lin Jian's face was calm, and he said, "I can take His Highness down to see it, but there is something I have to make clear to His Highness in advance." ”

"That's what Master Lin ordered."

Yuan Dagong frowned slightly, and said: "I had a three-year appointment with him, it was originally difficult to open this mouth, but now it happened suddenly, but since I went, I can't force him, after His Highness saw that thing, if the negotiation is completed, it will be easy to say, if the negotiation fails, don't say this thing." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Jian stood up from the chair with a serious voice.

"Lin Mou has been a grass farmer in Yuezhou for a lifetime, and he can't be a villain because of the position of a country's son of the priest."

Li Xu also put away a smile on his face, and bowed his hand deeply to Lin Jian: "Students are taught to obey orders." ”

Lin Jian showed a smile on his face, and he smiled at Li Xu: "Your Highness has worked hard all the way, first eat a lunch in the Mansion, rest and rest, and when the evening comes, I will take you to see him." ”

Li Xu came all the way from Chang'an, and he was indeed a little tired, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "It's all up to Master Lin's arrangement." ”

………………

Compared with the bustle of Xingwenfang, Lin Zhao's life is still the same as always, he found a huge piece of red paper, and then used conspicuous black characters to write on the paper "Blue Mountain Collection" is sold at five folds", which may be the first promotional billboard in this era.

In a few days, when the Blue Mountains in the workshop are printed, this promotional billboard will be of great use.

It wasn't until the evening that he completely finished the billboard and put it in the warehouse in the bookstore, and after tidying up the bookstore, Lin Zhao locked the door of the shop and went home from work as usual.

When passing by a pastry stall, he also spent eight copper coins to buy a small bag of pastries to take home as a snack.

By the time he got back to the door of his hut, it was already a little drowsy, and it was about to get dark.

But the strange thing is that the door of Lin Zhao's hut is quite bright.

Boss Lin first stretched out his head to look at his door, and saw at least a dozen big men holding lanterns, standing at the door of his house, illuminating his hut as if it were day.

There were two men dressed as scholars, standing at the door of their houses.

One of them had sharper eyes, and immediately saw Lin Zhao in the crowd, and beckoned to Lin Zhao: "San Lang, you are back." ”

"Come here."
