The scene was extremely embarrassing for a while.

Han Xizai's anger did not subside, and he scolded angrily: "Such a beast who betrays the lord is not tolerated!" ”

Lin Feng took a step forward, raised his hand to stop Han Xizai's scolding, turned to everyone, and explained bitterly: "King Chu, King Zheng, my lords, I'm sorry, I've disappointed everyone!" Renjie was seriously injured for Lin in the past, missed the opportunity to enlist in the army, and has been borrowing wine to drown his sorrows, but I don't care enough about him every day, and the arrangement is not appropriate, which makes everyone laugh! ”

Han Xizai still hated himself and said: "This kind of wolf-hearted and dog-lung person, what are you doing to defend him?!" At this time, Xiao Yan, You Jianyan and others came up to comfort Lin Feng. Only two young people who came with Li Jingqian, the king of Chu, glanced at each other, a look of joy flashed in their eyes, and they quickly lowered their heads to hide their past.

Lin Feng was miserable in his heart, his expression was gloomy, he claimed that he wanted to change, to change the fortunes of the country, to change the fate of most people, but he couldn't even take care of the people around him, what a lofty ideal, he was a little disheartened for a while, and he was silent.

Han Xizai couldn't look at it, so he came up and grabbed Lin Feng and dragged him to his seat: "Zhishan, just like you said, how many things in ancient and modern times are being laughed at!" What a big deal, come, let's have a drink and forget about this unpleasant thing! ”

"That's it, I made a song a few days ago, and I asked Mr. Lin to taste it!" Li Yu, who had been silent, saw Lin Feng so depressed, and also spoke, and chanted the words on the spot:

"Turning the candle and returning from a dream, wanting to find traces of Chen and causing people to be wrong, the wish of the Heavenly Sect is against the body.

When the moon pool platform is empty, the shade of the flowers and pavilions is slanting, and the landing does not hesitate to get more clothes. ”

"What a song "Huanxi Yarn"! Poignant and tactful, sincere and sincere, Prince Zheng is a good lyric! Jiang Wenwei was the first to boast. Subsequently, a group of people praised one after another, diluting the depression just now.

Lin Feng stabilized his mind, and began to communicate with Jiang Wenwei and You Jianyan, the two attendants of the Ministry of Rites, to discuss the details of the ceremony.

After a while, Li Jingqian, the king of Chu, who thought he would enjoy a wonderful show but saw a farce of turning his face, couldn't sit still, got up and punished himself, and offered to take the first step. Everyone quickly got up to stay, but they couldn't stand Li Jingqian's "return to his heart like an arrow", and he fled with a large number of people.

Shang Shu's right servant shot Sun Sheng in the footsteps of Li Jingqian, and soon withdrew. Then, Xiao Yan, Jiang Wenwei and others also excused themselves to leave.

After the end, only Shi Xubai, the chief doctor, Han Xizai, a member of the Yu department, Liao Jusu and Lin Feng, Wei San and Lu Jiang were left at the scene.

Lin Feng motioned for Lu Jiang and the three of them to have a good exchange with the three officials, and he just sat there and drank one cup after another.

Han Xizai really couldn't look at it, sat down beside Lin Feng, grabbed his shoulder, and persuaded: "Zhishan, you haven't done anything wrong at all, don't care too much, how many big things are waiting for you to cheer up!" ”

Lin Feng raised his head and asked with drunken eyes: "Big brother, has Li Ran's pardon recital been completed?" ”

"It's going to be soon, just go to the household department tomorrow to make up a formality." Han Xizai shook Lin Feng's body and raised his voice a little and said.

Lin Feng shook his heavy head again, grabbed a large glass of wine and drank it all, was stunned for a while, and suddenly asked, "Have you started to do everything that you have discussed?" ”

Han Xizai was stunned at first, but immediately reacted, nodded slightly, and quietly reached out to make a gesture that reassured Lin Feng.

"Good! Brother Xie Lu, Brother Xie! Lin Feng muttered, lowered his head, and fell asleep directly on the table!

Han Xizai was angry and funny, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to set up Lin Feng and send him home.

Just as a group of people were carrying Lin Feng down the stairs, two people who were also a little drunk and slippery squeezed past them, and a middle-aged man behind him shouted: "Brother, have you heard that this recruitment will be greatly expanded, and you may have to enter some academy of sciences, or let's try our luck too?" ”

"Just go, we can't solve those problems, and we can't beat the side drum and play miscellaneous? Anyway, we are also people who have read books for ten years, and we will not study! A young man in front of him grabbed the railing with one hand, turned around and shouted.

"That's it! Let's go too! The middle-aged man grabbed the young man's shoulders with his hand, and the two walked downstairs shoulder to shoulder.

"The sky is smiling, the tide is in the world, who loses and who wins, God knows......" The middle-aged man suddenly sang, and the young man immediately roared along. The lyrics of "A Laugh in the Sea" borrowed by Lin Feng have long been sung all over Jinling City!

Han Xizai, who was walking behind the back with his hands behind his back, listened intently to the conversation between the two drunkards, and then heard the singing of the most drunkard, he couldn't help but smile, glanced at Lin Feng, who was supported by Wei San, with bright eyes, and said silently in his heart, Zhishan, the dark chess we laid out has begun to work, you can rest for a while!

Just when Lin Feng was carried into the mansion gate, Hu Cheng, who was the supervisor, took three people and knocked on the courtyard door of a simple house under the city wall of Jinling North City, and shouted loudly: "Old Deng, have you slept?" ”

"Who?" An old voice asked.

"I, Hu Cheng! There are also Zhao Chengda, Yu Qingfei, and Gui Hua! Hu Cheng replied while pushing open the courtyard door that was better than nothing.

"Hurry up, please come in!" Candles soon lit up in the room, and an elderly man opened the door and looked at the four people in front of him in surprise.

The five people sat down in the room with a cold noise, Hu Cheng opened the wooden box in his hand, took out two dishes and put them on the table, and turned his eyes to look at the miscellaneous monster pieces in the room, and looked up and asked the black and thin old man opposite: "Brother Deng, do you have a new invention?" ”

The old man known as Brother Deng was resentful for a while and pitiful for a while, looked at the things in the room with complicated eyes, shook his head and said: "It has taken time, for decades, Deng has achieved nothing, nothing has been accomplished, sometimes I really want to split all these things!" Go up in flames! ”

"Don't!" Hu Cheng turned around and took a few pairs of chopsticks from a wooden board and distributed them to everyone, and handed the last pair to Deng Jiayu, the master of the Taibu Bureau. In the official rank sequence of the Southern Tang Dynasty, this official is just a third-class sesame position, which is worse than chicken ribs.

"Let's talk while we eat! Brother Deng, I'm here so late today for these things! Hu Cheng took a bite of the dish and chewed it with relish.

"And meat? Lao Hu, you are luxurious enough now!? Only then did Lao Deng realize that the dishes in the wooden box were very exquisite, that is, they were very expensive!

"Of course, since following Lord Lin Fenglin, our living standards have also risen. Lord Lin treats people very well, as long as he does a good job, he will reward a lot of money without blinking! Hu Cheng's beard was raised high, and his left hand also gave a thumbs up.

"Lin Feng is really that good?" Not only Lao Deng, but the other three also looked at Hu Cheng with wide eyes and envy. This group of people are all people who are not in the officialdom, but they are also people who have empty talents but have nowhere to show them, so they can get together and occasionally make two plates of peanuts or something to have a good time!

"Of course! Let's not talk about these for now, I came to you today, and it was entrusted by Lord Lin and Lord Han Xizai Han to invite people to come out of the mountain! Hu Cheng put down his chopsticks and looked mysterious.

"Really?" The other four all stopped their chopsticks and stared at Hu Cheng.

Hu Cheng ignored the anxious eyes of several people, Meimei ate a large mouthful of food, and then said leisurely: "Do you know that Lord Lin suggested that His Majesty establish the Datang Academy of Sciences, and he is preparing to recruit talents on a large scale!" ”

Subsequently, Hu Cheng introduced the basic situation of the proposed establishment of the Academy of Sciences one by one, and the eyes of several people became wider and wider, and no one cared about touching those plates of "hard dishes" that they usually couldn't afford at all.

"Briquette machine, Liuchun furnace, you have all heard of it, how much did the patent auction cost? Two thousand one thousand! The crooked melons and cracked dates in the forbidden army that followed Lin Feng at the beginning are now all mature, and they are still the first batch to receive the Medal of Honor; Even a few musicians who played and sang in the Lin Mansion were about to be dismissed now after Lord Lin played the emperor directly! Let me tell you, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao have dreamed of going to the Lin Mansion! Hu Cheng wiped his mouth and said with his eyebrows fluttering.

Yu Qingfei, the supervisor of the Arsenal Administration, couldn't help but say: "What does this have to do with us? ”

"You're stupid! Lord Lin and Lord Han specially asked me to find people with real talents, no matter what they did before, as long as they have real skills, Lord Lin will never bury you! Lao Deng loves to tinker, which is exactly what the Academy of Sciences wants; Brother Cheng loves design, Brother Guihua is familiar with water conservancy, Brother Qingfei loves shipbuilding, you are all talents that Lord Lin is eager to recruit! Hu Cheng was a little anxious, and said in a series of arrows in his mouth.

Several of them pondered.

Hu Cheng looked at them with hatred, and said a little angrily: "Do you know no, Lord Han said that the future Academy of Sciences will not only have a minimum monthly salary of 300 Wen, but also a floating bonus, and there will be another reward for making achievements, and if we follow Lord Lin in the future, we will completely turn over!" ”

It was so high that the four of them were all stupefied by the number of three hundred Wen. The eldest official among the four of them is only from the ninth grade, and all the income in a month is only more than 100 yuan!

"I've never seen the world! I might as well tell you, I have been with Lord Lin for nearly three months, how much do you think Lord Lin will reward me in total? Hu Cheng stood up, glared at the four brothers, and said word by word: "Twenty consistent!" ”

Wow, now, the four of them are completely petrified!
