Although this is a bit exaggerated, not everyone can have Lin Haoran's ability to perceive subtleties, but it has undoubtedly caused a certain psychological impact on Wang Jun and others.

They thought that the small actions that others didn't know about couldn't escape the eyes of the big guys at all, and those big guys who were obsessed in officialdom were far more powerful than they imagined.

In particular, Wang Jun, who was full of self-confidence, thought that he would be invincible in the officialdom with his own ability and integrity, but found that this officialdom was more complicated and sinister than they imagined.

Lin Haoran knew that although Wang Jun was over thirty years old, after all, he was just entering the officialdom and directly entering the Supervision Yuan, so his temperament would inevitably be arrogant and conceited, so he also struck while the iron was hot and said: "Being a teacher is not a saint, so I don't require my students to be flawless, I want you to be saints one by one." I only want you to face up to your desires and get them in the right way, instead of being dragged into the water by others. Just like a good tea for a teacher, and always taste tea, but never expect to get the dragon well before the rain, this unknown pineapple tea is also exquisite. Although everyone has desires, and the teacher hopes that you can face them squarely, you must control this desire and not be dominated by it in reverse. ”

"Listening to the teacher's words is better than reading for ten years, and the students are taught!" Wang Jun's heart was solemn, he saluted seriously, and then reminisced: "My second grandfather is a good drinker, and he was once scolded by the rod for drinking in the army, and he is determined to quit drinking from now on." He never touched wine when he returned home, and insisted on not drinking even when he attended the wedding banquet, but within half a month, he died in the wine vat. If he could face up to his desires, I'm afraid he would still be alive now! ”

Wang Honghai listened to these conversations, resolutely agreed with Lin Haoran's statement, and also began to reflect on himself.

Lin Haoran nodded slightly, but he slapped a date and said: "Ziyong (Wang Jun's character), as a teacher, I know that you are from a military household and have tenacious ambitions, and you will definitely be able to achieve something in the future." It's just that the current court is too rigid and easy to break, and your master almost has to stay away from the court, so the teacher hopes that you will rein in some sharp edges and make a choice of opportunities! ”

"Disciple remember!" Wang Jun nodded lightly and saluted respectfully.

Liu Fushan and Shen Tao found that Lin Haoran's gaze fell on the two of them, and there was a trace of expectation and nervousness in their hearts, they had clearly understood: although this teacher was younger than them, his wisdom was far above them.

Lin Haoran did not favor one over the other, even though these two protégés had to work for decades to have the opportunity to serve as the six scholars, he also said to them with a heartfelt attitude: "The two of you are in the six yamen, and the atmosphere of these six yamen has also been heard of as a teacher. Now that you have entered the yamen, there must be some seniors who will tell you that it is better to move around than to work hard, but is this so? ”

Liu Fushan and Shen Tao glanced at each other and replied bitterly: "That's true!" Liu Fushan added: "A senior also told the students that it is better to let the students usually stick to you than to work hard in the yamen for three years!" ”

Lin Haoran drank the tea in the cup, and asked the tea girl to come back to make tea.

He knew very well that he could not excessively accuse these old men of the six yamen of "teaching badly" the newcomers, and in the 20 years that Yan Song was in power, especially in Jingcha, which was led by Lu Ben six years ago, the relationship between the promotion of officials and ability became smaller and smaller, and the relationship between money and relations can be said to be very popular.

If you can tie up with the father and son of the Yan family, even if you are from a high background, you can also get a good job. And if you offend the father and son of the Yan family, even if you make great achievements, you may also be dismissed.

This is true not only of officials at the bottom, but also of those at the top. Yuan Wei, Guo Pu, Li Chunfang and Yan Ne are not outstanding in ability and qualifications, but because of their good writing of green words, they were promoted by Jiajing Chaoqian.

It is precisely in this kind of unfair employment environment that many officials no longer concentrate on official business, but do everything possible to run their connections, wanting to hug their thick thighs and rise to the top.

What is helpless is that as the party struggle intensifies, this situation will become more and more serious, and it is even a reason for the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Haoran is only Shuntian Mansion Yin now, so naturally he can't change anything, but he said solemnly to the two disciples: "In order to learn from the Leizhou Prefect step by step to the current Shuntian Mansion Yin, he didn't use any relationship, relying on merit. As my students, you should not listen to these crooked ways, but concentrate on the first task at hand. As long as you do well enough, even if Guo Zhifu wants to send you out, the teacher will help you fight. However, the teacher also puts the words here, if the teacher finds your corpse vegetarian meal, you don't blame the teacher for being ruthless! ”

"Students should remember that they will live up to the expectations of their teachers!" Liu Fushan and Shen Tao's eyes flashed with excitement, and they looked serious.

Now that they can have such a guarantee from Lin Haoran, they are undoubtedly lucky, just like "children with mothers", and they don't need to worry about the problem of becoming regular next year.

As for whether they will be like some of their predecessors, they don't think they will. When the teacher served as the prefect of Leizhou and Guangzhou, he had already set a good example for them, and only by doing things in a down-to-earth manner could they benefit the people.

After saying the same thing, Lin Haoran did not stay here for long.

Now he has fulfilled his obligations as a teacher, and he only hopes that the four of them can grow up and help him do something in the future. After all, even if he becomes the first assistant, he still needs some trustworthy people, so that the national policy he has formulated can be implemented.

"Teacher, go slowly!"

Wang Jun and the others respectfully sent Lin Haoran into the carriage and watched the carriage slowly leave.

Wang Honghai wanted to return to the restaurant to continue to have tea with these three fellow villagers and fellow villagers, but Wang Jun and the three of them wanted to leave, but Wang Honghai said with a straight face: "Have you forgotten what the teacher just said?" ”

Wang Jun and the other three looked at each other, Wang Jun reluctantly walked in to face the jingle girl who made his heart flutter, while the other two gave up to visit the Chaozhou Weng Langzhong.

Lin Haoran's delay in the restaurant was not short, and Hu Niu and Wu Qiuyu also finished shopping, so they planned to pick them up, and then the family went to Wu's mansion together.

When I arrived at a silk shop, I saw Hu Niu and Wu Qiuyu saying goodbye to a woman with a shy belly.

Lin Haoran looked at the woman a little familiar, and when Wu Qiuyu got into the carriage, he asked curiously, "Who was that woman just now?" ”

"Xianggong, if you ask other women like this, aren't you afraid that your concubines will be jealous?" Wu Qiuyu was obviously in a good mood after shopping, and he pretended to be angry.

Lin Haoran didn't think that the lady who had always respected each other would have this side, and immediately explained helplessly: "Do you know that a husband is not that kind of person!" ”

"Yuwang Concubine Li!" Wu Qiuyu confided in the truth softly.
