March 17 is a touching day.

This is the case with a lot of seemingly extremely secret news, and this spread has become a matter that everyone knows. With the arrival of today, everyone is also looking forward to it.

All the officials of the Yamen in the capital are concerned about the movements of Xiyuan and Dongjiang Rice Lane. In essence, not only the officials in the capital, but also some sons and businessmen are also paying attention to this big move.

The official department is in charge of the promotion of hundreds of officials, and in particular, he will preside over the six-year Jingcha. No matter which faction of people is appointed, it has a great impact on this court, and even affects the direction of the court.

Xu and Dong were the closest to the position of the official secretary, and the officials on their side appeared to be uneasy about the outcome, while the Shanxi gang led by Yang Bo also maintained the last glimmer of hope.

It's just that no matter how you guess, there will be an answer soon, and there will be new changes in the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Haoran's years of qi cultivation kung fu are still poor, but he can't stay in the north of the city, so he took a carriage to the south of the city in a low-key manner, and went to the teahouse near Mixiang in Dongjiang to pay attention to the movement.

He did not wear the dazzling three-grade official uniform, but a scholar's outfit, and quietly came to a teahouse. I went straight up to the second floor and was about to head to the private room I had booked.

Syllable......

Passing by the door of a private room, the door was suddenly slammed open, and the iron pillar was so frightened that Lin Haoran blocked in front of him, and Lin Fu was facing the figure. Just looked closely, but what came out was a crying girl.

The door was pushed open, revealing the situation inside. But I saw a boy standing inside, holding a sweat towel in his hand, and he didn't look like a good person just by looking at it.

It's just that before Lin Haoran could take action, Chen Boren inside stood up from the futon, but greeted him with a smile and said, "Lin Fuyin, why are you so free today?" ”

Everyone is a smart person, and Lin Haoran appeared here in a scholar's costume, already to keep a low profile. It's just that he deliberately asked like this, and resolutely pointed to Lin Haoran's sore spot without a trace.

"I smell the fragrance of tea here, so I came over to drink a pot!" Lin Haoran gave Lin Fu a look and replied very naturally.

Chen Boren naturally didn't think that this was grasping Lin Haoran's grasp, but he warmly invited: "Lord Fu Yin, I found a good Longjing today, why don't you come in and taste a product, how about it?"

"It's better to be respectful than to obey!" Lin Haoran smiled slightly, and walked directly in.

Chen Boren led Lin Haoran in, pointed to the standing son-in-law, and introduced: "This is the son of Dong Shilang's family!" ”

Among the six servants, except for Dong Fen, the left waiter of the ministry, there is no one surnamed Dong. Even if there is, how can Chen Boren be solemnly introduced, it is naturally the son of the left servant of the Ministry of Officials that has this treatment.

Dong Gongzi was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but the editor had a long face, and those eyes were round, giving people a sense of treachery, but he said in a proper manner: "I've seen Lord Fu Yin!" ”

Lin Haoran nodded slightly noncommittally and sat straight to Yan Gongzi's previous position.

Chen Boren looked at Dong Gongzi's face was not good, and secretly shook his head lightly at him.

Although Dong Fen is about to become the secretary of the ministry, this is still something that has not been announced after all. What's more, the other party is Shuntianfu Yin, so he can naturally behave rudely.

"Lord Fu Yin, please wait!"

Chen Boren didn't have any shelves, but he poured out the previous tea leaves and personally made tea for the two.

Lin Haoran glanced at Chen Boren, who was busy, and found that this person was also a character.

Previously, he supported Gao Yao, the head of the household, although Gao Yao, who supported him, had been demoted to Nanjing, but with the financial support behind him, even Xu Jie regarded him as a guest.

Now, Dong Fen, who has a good fellow villager with him, is about to become the secretary of the ministry, and he resolutely climbed this big tree again.

Chen Boren's movements were like flowing water, and he quickly handed the brewed tea to Lin Haoran respectfully, and raised his hand respectfully and said, "Please!" ”

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, smelling the refreshing fragrance of tea, knowing that this was indeed a rare and good tea, but he picked it up with both hands, smelled its fragrance first, and then drank it carefully into his mouth.

Chen Boren is a person who is good at tea, and he does not hesitate to spend a lot of money for good tea, and when he saw Lin Haoran put the teacup down, he asked with a smile: "Lin Fuyin, how is this tea?" ”

"The entrance is mellow and fragrant, it is indeed a rare and good tea!" Lin Haoran praised directly.

Chen Boren said tentatively: "It's rare to enter the eyes of Lin Mansion Yin!" I still have four taels at home, and I'll send someone to deliver it to you when I turn around! ”

"Good!" Lin Haoran replied.

When Dong Gongzi heard this, he immediately glanced at Lin Haoran with disdain.

Drinking tea is naturally not the goal, Chen Boren is a businessman, and he is also wishful thinking.

It was at this moment that a servant hurried in from outside.

The servant was about to report to Chen Boren, but when he suddenly saw Lin Haoran here, he immediately felt a burst of surprise on his face, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back raw.

Chen Boren is a smart person, and immediately said magnificently: "Lin Fuyin is not an outsider, say it!" ”

"Gonggong Chen walked out of the palace gate with the holy decree in hand!" The servant reported.

Here it comes!

When Lin Haoran heard the news, he knew that the appointment door of the Ministry of Officials had come out of the palace, and now it was up to Chen Hong to which yamen he went to and who he would read out the appointment decree of the Ministry of Officials.

Chen Boren's heart moved slightly, and he asked seriously at Lin Haoran: "Lin Fuyin, I don't know who you think is the secretary of the ministry?" ”

At the time of this questioning, Dong Gongzi obviously raised his chin and looked very proud.

Lin Haoran didn't glance at Dong Gongzi, but replied directly and honestly: "Xu Jie's relationship with Yan Ne is close, if there is no accident, Dong Zhilang will be the secretary of the ministry!" ”

Chen Boren originally planned to spend some time talking, or wait to see which yamen he entered, but now Lin Haoran was so straightforward, he smiled and promised: "If Lord Fu Yin is willing, I will take care of it for you, and I will definitely not quote Guo Pu's investigation!" ”

"What about the conditions?" Lin Haoran picked up the teacup and asked lightly.

"You can't mention the rectification of Huaiyan anymore, and we want to take a stake in the United Business Group, and since then the two of us have formed an alliance!" Chen Boren raised his eyes and looked at Lin Haoran, and said his conditions.

Lin Haoran took a sip of the teacup, squinting his eyes and looking at the other party seriously.

I was not surprised by the first condition, after all, the other party had accumulated a huge amount of wealth by relying on Huai Yan, but the second condition was already to implicate his joint merchant group, which was almost trampling on his bottom line.

Although Chen Boren knew that this request was a bit excessive, greed has always been the nature of businessmen, but he looked at Lin Haoran firmly and wanted Lin Haoran to give an answer.

But at this moment, Lin Fu walked in from outside, squatted in Lin Haoran's ear and whispered.

Chen Boren and Dong Gongzi guessed that this should be the movement of Dongjiang Mixiang, but they stared at Lin Haoran's face tightly.

Lin Haoran gently put down the teacup and met Chen Boren's puzzled gaze, but asked with a smile: "Didn't you really think that the holy decree went straight to the yamen of the Ministry of Rites?" ”
