Zhu Hao returned to Beijing this time, but Yang Shen did not go to greet him.

In Yang Shen's opinion, Zhu Hao was sent to Beijing twice like this...... One time was Yang Tinghe took the initiative to transfer him to Nanjing to investigate the case, and the other time he was degraded by the emperor to go to the mine to work as a coolie, which was equivalent to being rejected by the two major political factions in the DPRK and China at the same time, and there was no political future at all.

Although Yang Shen felt ashamed of Zhu Hao in the matter of the joint name, since the incident had happened, there was nothing to make up for it, so it was better to calm down and let Zhu Hao ......

Fend for yourself!

You can still have a relationship in the future, but you don't have to make deep friends, so it's good for yourself and Zhu Hao.

After all, Yang Shen understands that whoever he gets close to in the court will be unlucky.

Tang Yin has been busy as his courtesan recently, and he can't take care of Zhu Hao for a while, and he doesn't even know when Zhu Hao will return to Kyoto one day.

It's Zhu Si who urges him tightly, so he asks Huang Jin or Zhang Zuo if he has nothing to do, and then greets Jinyiwei's people and asks them to protect him secretly, as long as Zhu Hao returns to Beijing, he immediately wants to see him.

Zhu Si was full of things about building railways and making trains, and wanted to communicate with Zhu Hao.

But when Zhu Hao returned to Beijing this time, it was Sun Jiao who first found him.

Or through her daughter Sun Lan.

Zhu Hao and Cai Ang drank tea in the market, but they didn't find anything, and they went home to clean up and prepare to catch up on sleep, but they were told by his wife Sun Lan that Sun Jiao wanted his son-in-law to visit as soon as he came back, whether it was in the household yamen or at home, as long as Zhu Hao came back, Sun Jiao could see him at any time.

……

……

Zhu Hao didn't want to go to the household yamen.

It's not a big deal for him to return to Beijing, and now it's not time for him to be in the limelight, Sun Jiao is a scholar of the household department, and he is a Hanlin scholar, isn't it plain to attract people's attention when he runs the household department?

Zhu Hao went to Sun's Mansion to wait.

Sun Jiao heard that his son-in-law had returned to Beijing, so he went home early that day.

After Sun Jiao saw Zhu Hao, he didn't keep a straight face, nor did he teach his son-in-law a lesson in the tone of an old pedant, but was very happy, and pulled Zhu Hao aside, insisting on showing Zhu Hao his recently harvested collection.

Zhu Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Old Sun has something to say."

"Could it be that the old man must have something to do to find you? Don't be so anxious for quick success, I will specially call Liu Hanlin tonight, and the three of us will have a meal together and talk about things."

Sun Jiao behaved enthusiastically.

Zhu Hao asked, "Which Liu Hanlin?"

Sun Jiao smiled, "Who else? Isn't it the one you helped into the cabinet?"

"Old Liu Ge...... Will he be willing to show his face?"

Zhu Hao was a little surprised.

Sun Jiaodao: "Others can't do it, I called him, it's just a matter of words. If I had told him that you had returned, he would have come to the door gladly. Recently, we have always mentioned you, and he said that there have been many times when His Majesty has adopted his votes recently, and basically they are not written by him himself, but His Majesty will basically adopt his opinions...... I think you're behind it, right?"

"Huh."

Zhu Hao could have denied it, but he didn't.

Liu Chun has just entered the cabinet, and his style of acting, Zhu Hao is very clear, even if the vote is not written by Liu Chun, Zhu Hao can probably judge who in the cabinet comes from those summarized opinions.

Zhu Hao has never been in contact with this group of people on the surface, but secretly he has been dealing with each other for more than a year and a half.

There were originally four members of the cabinet, what is the style of handling affairs, and their division of labor in the cabinet, such as who is responsible for which of the six departments, local affairs, and who will be involved in money, food, finance and taxation......

It's clear!

Zhu Hao seems to be just an ordinary Hanlin, but he is equivalent to the eunuch of the celebrant Bingbi and the eunuch of the palm seal, and then the emperor.

With his keen observation and summarization ability, if he can't even judge this, then he has really been in vain in the past two years.

Sun Jiao sighed: "You were not in Beijing before, Zhu Pili rarely adopted Liu Renzhong's opinion, he did a lot of grievances in the cabinet, but as soon as you came back, even if you were not in Beijing, but in Xishan, there were many

Take his advice, and I know you're behind it. But that's okay, now I see that he is more energetic, and he carries a brilliance everywhere he goes, and no one who sees him will think of it...... He is a man who has died once."

Sun Jiao now no longer interferes with Zhu Hao's review of the emperor's review, and gradually accepts and praises him.

Zhu Hao took the initiative to ask, "As soon as I did this, doesn't Elder Sun feel ...... Is there something wrong?"

"Humph!"

Sun Jiao was a little arrogant, and rolled Zhu Hao's eyes, "I used to think so, but seeing that you are in an orderly manner, it is indeed very accessible......

"I don't understand the other yamen, just say that there are two pieces of the household department and the warehouse, you have not made any mistakes, and your opinions are more radical than those put forward by the cabinet, and you always play some new tricks, but by the end of last year, the income and expenditure of the household department were obviously controlled. That's good."

As a head of the household, what do you care about the most?

Of course, the treasury is full, and it is better to have a little surplus to plan for the future.

Sun Jiao doesn't say anything else, he is a good hand at managing accounts, and others are not greedy, how many are how much, and he will never hide the deficit below, because he doesn't plan to stay in the court, why do you want to leave some deficits for others?

Sun Jiao is more like an old cadre who was temporarily rehired by the imperial court, trying his best to solve the matter at hand in a fair and just way in a non-stick way, and he is not afraid of offending anyone.

When there was a surplus in the treasury, Sun Jiao was very satisfied, and felt that he was a big tree for future generations to be a shade.

……

……

In the evening, Liu Chun really came.

Compared with the last time Zhu Hao returned to Beijing, he took the initiative to greet him at the Hanlin Academy, this time Liu Chun was not as "heartbroken" as before, but after seeing Zhu Hao, he was very happy, and took Zhu Hao's hand and asked many things.

「…… I heard that Jingdao has a good personal relationship with the celebrant Zhang's father-in-law?"

When Liu Chun said this, he couldn't help but glance at Sun Jiao.

It's as if to say, I didn't listen to what others said, or your father-in-law who was sitting there with a fake and serious face.

Zhu Hao smiled and nodded.

"Then it's no wonder, I have to say that this Gonggong Zhang is also a capable person, and he must have been talented when he was in Xingwangfu." Liu Chun sighed.

Sun Jiao couldn't help but look at the past.

What does it mean for you old boy to praise Zhang Zuo in front of my son-in-law?

I know that your cabinet has a lot of contact with the celebrant and the celebrant supervisor, but don't you think that Zhang Zuo's ability is the result of others supporting him behind his back?

And the person supporting the waist is the little champion sitting in front of you, I'm afraid you don't know, right?

"By the way, you haven't been back to the museum yet, have you? Those who returned to Beijing in advance yesterday are said to have returned to perform their duties, and now there are rumors that your batch of Hanlin may be exiled...... But don't worry, the old man will do his best to speak for you and let you continue your studies in the museum."

When Liu Chun said this, he couldn't help but glance at Sun Jiao again.

But what he meant this time was...... Old Sun, this is probably the purpose of you calling me, right? You don't need to open your mouth, I'll take the initiative to take over this job!

"Hahahahaha......"

Sun Jiao laughed.

Liu Chun thought to himself, is what I said so good?

You, Sun Zhitong, are so happy to hear this?

I'm laughing so much that my big teeth are almost gone, you look like this, you probably can only drink porridge, right? Although we are all old people, we are not the same as we are, or you are older.

Zhu Hao smiled: "It's nothing to transfer or something, as long as it's around the Jingshi."

Liu Chun looked back at Zhu Hao, slightly surprised: "If you are transferred, can you still choose where to go?"

"Huh."

Sun exchanged a laugh.

When Liu Chun heard this laughter, he felt panicked, and he couldn't understand why Sun Jiao was laughing.

Zhu Hao's heart was clear, Old Man Sun felt that he was standing in the perspective of God, opening all the fog to see the world, and suddenly there was a feeling of condescending looking at the mountains, so he was proud

Yang, regardless of how harsh this smile was, he kept laughing there.

Maybe he shouldn't have told him so much in the first place, but Zhu Si was in a hurry to win over Sun Jiao, and made a bad start, and then because he was already a son-in-law with Sun Jiao, he didn't hide it from him anymore.

Otherwise......

At this time, Sun Jiao should probably be the same as Liu Chun, they are all stupid and can't tell the difference.

……

……

The dinner was harmonious.

Liu Chun became a chatterbox, chattering non-stop, although he was a guest like Zhu Hao, but during the banquet, he had the highest status, and he spoke without scruples, mainly mentioning the recent events in the capital.

「…… This session of the exam, it's a bit sloppy to say, I haven't felt like it's going to end, and I don't feel like I'm in control of the papers or anything......

Liu Chun suddenly mentioned that he would take the exam.

Sun Jiao asked curiously, "Could it be...... Too much interference?"

Liu Chun shook his head: "Don't say it, Jiefu didn't mention a word about this year's examination, and the people in the hall talked about it a lot...... But somehow, there is a leak in the people, this matter is strange, there are people in the Beijing who buy and sell exam questions, and Like has done a performance for the side in the matter, and it is said that it is still being investigated, and it is estimated that it will not be over."

Liu Chun's words surprised Sun Jiao.

Sun Jiao's usual focus on the middle of the matter, not including this exam.

Love whoever you want.

No one from my family participated in this examination, besides, the results of the examination did not come out, as the head of the household, the examination is a matter of the Ministry of Rites, not should we wait until the palace examination, will I care about what the topic is, who can win the champion?

"Will Dongchang and Jinyiwei investigate?"

Sun Jiao suddenly asked.

Liu Chun frowned.

Will the factory guard check, you ask me?

How do I know!

Sun Jiao's words were obviously said to Liu Chun, but he was actually asking Zhu Hao.

He actually wanted to know if Zhu Hao would take advantage of this meeting to make some articles.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Old Sun, if there are too many folk rumors, it is estimated that Your Majesty will still care about it, speaking of which...... Mr. Tang suffered this loss back then, but most of the things that were on the subject were nothing."

It is equivalent to showing Sun Jiao's attitude in disguise, or the attitude of the emperor.

The investigation is to be investigated, but the final conclusion is that "there is no evidence" or "there is no evidence".

When it comes to Tang Yin, it is probably also a case study, even if everyone can be happy in the end, but the process of investigation may be the same as the twelfth year of Hongzhi, first to investigate thoroughly, and finally involve people from all sides...... It is best to use this matter to involve Yang Tinghe.

Achieving political goals is more important than achieving a fair and just outcome.
