The dream of a scholar is to be a Jinshi, and the dream of becoming an official is to enter the cabinet.

This group of new Hanlin people was undoubtedly lucky. Before they could fully understand the grass and trees of the Hanlin Academy, they were about to report to the cabinet.

Being able to get close to the legendary prime ministers, observe their daily office processes, and see them strategizing on national affairs and saving the people from the fire and fire is exciting just thinking about it.

Human nature always advocates the strong. Perhaps some scholars advocate hermits such as Tao Yuanming's Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, but those who want to go to the official career are the most ready-made role models to learn from, and are naturally the prime ministers who are in the cabinet now.

But you have to have a choice to learn. For example, if you don’t want to be a little bit of a strong man, no one who is a little bit of backbone will want to follow suit. Although this man turned against him and informed Liu Jian and the others, it was thanks to Liu Jian who was careful and went to tell Tang Fan. Tang Fan was extremely cautious and refused to let go of any clues. Otherwise, they would not find the fake prince and expose Wantong on the spot. What is the situation now?

Therefore, after Wan'an finished his work, he was sent home by the emperor.

I don’t know what the emperor thought. Wan’an’s position as chief minister was not removed. In name, he is still the chief minister, but his actual position is represented by Liu Ji. Liu Mianhua is also a unique person. He has been impeached for twelve years since he entered the cabinet in the eleventh year of Chenghua. However, he is as stable as Mount Tai and will not resign voluntarily. Now, even Wan’an is staying at home, but he has gone a step further. It is really convincing to be able to get to this level in the officialdom.

But this does not mean that Liu Ji is a role model admired by others. In the eyes of Lu Lingxi and other new Hanlin people, the most ideal prime minister should naturally be as anxious as Liu Jian, as approachable as Xu Pu, and also concentrate the advantages of the two. He is neither as impulsive as Liu Jian, nor as Xu Pu's sometimes too soft Tang Fan.

These three people are the idols that Hanlins want to get in touch with and get close to.

Of course, Lu Lingxi also includes.

Three people were missing in the cabinet, and Tang Fan, who had re-entered the cabinet, and the remaining four cabinet ministers could finally get the treatment of a separate room for each person, which was undoubtedly an additional benefit after overthrowing the ten thousand parties.

There were four people in Xinhanlin who were assigned to the cabinet, each of whom was assigned to a cabinet minister to help him. Lu Lingxi was originally assigned to Xu Pu, but he changed his hand privately and then went to Tang Fan.

As a result, I came here to report happily early today and wanted to surprise Tang Fan, but I was poured with a large basin of cold water on my head.

Tang Fan is not here.

Lu Lingxi waited for a long time and couldn't help but go to the next door to ask the good old man Xu Pu.

"You said Runqing!" Xu Pu suddenly realized, "He took his leave today."

Lu Lingxi was stunned.

Xu Pu thought he was worried that there was nothing to do, so he said considerately: "If you don't organize the official documents with Liu Meng first, Runqing should come to pay the price tomorrow."

If he refuses, it would be ungrateful. Lu Lingxi naturally could not ignore Xu Pu's kindness, but he couldn't help but worry, "Su Xiang, why did Tang Xiang ask for leave?"

Xu Pu said: "It must be because he is sick. He has always been in good health and rarely takes leave."

When Lu Lingxi heard this, he became even more worried.

Fortunately, he has good abilities. Even if he is absent-minded, he has done a lot of work all day long. He is praised by Xu Pu along with Liu Meng.

Of course, it is impossible for Xu Pu to completely eliminate Lu Lingxi's understanding, and Xu Pu just doesn't want to attack them, because everyone knows that Xu, the good man, never said anyone bad things.

After leaving the palace in the evening, Lu Lingxi went to the dim sum shop to buy half a pound of rose cake and half a pound of osmanthus cake, and then went to the Tang family.

After going to the Tang family, it was naturally the maid who opened the door for him.

There were three maids from the Tang family, who were responsible for cooking and cleaning the houses, but they were not close to serve them. Moreover, Lu Lingxi found that they all had a very prominent feature, that is, they all looked very ordinary and had no characteristics at all. There was also one who was even big and thick. Just looking at the back, I almost thought they were a man.

It's really...it hurts your eyes.

When Lu Lingxi was at home, the maids who served the people were not as beautiful as immortals, but at least they had beautiful faces, but looking at the Tang family... he would swallow a mouthful of blood every time he saw it.

He heard that the Tang family was a scholarly family for generations, but later it fell into the family. Logically speaking, Brother Tang’s taste should not be so strange.

Lu Lingxi couldn't figure it out.

But it was not his turn to point fingers in other people's affairs. Lu Lingxi didn't want any of his actions to attract Tang Fan's unhappiness. He carefully maintained this newborn relationship, for fear of being destroyed by any unintentional actions.

Today is a little different.

From the opening of the Tang family's door, Lu Lingxi felt that his eyes were lit up in an instant.

The country is filled with wine in the morning, and the sky is fragrant and the night is dyed with clothes.

If it weren't for the presence of the group of jade, it would have met under the moon on the Yao platform.

All the words that could describe the beauty in front of him were pouring out in his mind like a tide, but even the talented poet was still a bit lacking. Such a beauty should be difficult to describe. Whether it is words or images, it is not as shocking as seeing a real person.

But unfortunately, he recognized this beauty.

Not only do I recognize it, but also know it very well.

"Xiao Wu?" Lu Lingxi was shocked and almost jumped up. "How come you are here!"

Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Why can't I be here? At least in Suzhou, I will help you get such a big case. Do you have no joy when you meet an old friend?"

If it were the past, Lu Lingxi might have been moved when he saw such a beauty.

Or in other words, few people are not moved by a beautiful woman like Xiao Wu.

But now he was immediately alert: "When did you get so familiar with Brother Tang?"

Xiao Wu turned her body and let him in, and said, "I passed by the capital and came over to visit Lord Tang. Why, if you can come, can't I come?"

Although the beauty is beautiful, she is thorny. What's more, Lu Lingxi knew her identity as early as Suzhou. Except for the sudden sudden appearance and naturally fascinated by that face, she had no imagination at all.

Lu Lingxi even compared her with Tang Fan unconsciously, and suddenly felt that even if it was compared, it would have desecrated Tang Fan-

Before he knew it, Lu Lingxi had already suffered from one-way lovesickness. In his eyes, Tang Fan was everywhere.

Lu Lingxi did not know that Xiao Wu had been absorbed into the Jinyiwei. The latter was originally stationed in the south. In the past few days, he had to go back to the capital to report to the North Dufu Department because of a mission. He appeared here. Moreover, she did not live here. She came to visit her door just for etiquette and was about to say goodbye and leave soon. However, Xiao Wu was happy to see Lu Lingxi looking frustrated and want to ask but dare not ask, so she naturally would not explain too much to the other party.

She took Lu Lingxi to the door of Tang Fan’s bedroom: “You can go in by yourself.”

After saying that, he didn't wait for Lu Lingxi to ask questions, and turned around and left, his figure swaying and full of charm.

Lu Lingxi glanced at her back, but she didn't appreciate the leisure of the beauty. He took a deep breath and wanted to raise his hand to knock on the door, but was afraid of disturbing Tang Fan's clear sleep. After thinking about it, he pushed the door quietly, took a lighter step, and walked from the outside into the inner room.

Unexpectedly, Tang Fan was not sleeping, and he didn't notice Lu Lingxi's arrival. He was still lying on the bed, with a stack of paper under his body, as if he was writing something.

Seeing him writing quickly and not forgetting to handle official duties even when he was ill in bed, Lu Lingxi immediately felt awe.

He was afraid of disturbing Tang Fan's thoughts, so he didn't even dare to breathe. He just stood beside him and watched for a while, until his feet felt a little sore and numb, he couldn't help but move.

Just as Tang Fan also put down his pen and planned to rub his neck, he looked up and saw Lu Lingxi.

But his first reaction was not to say hello to Lu Lingxi, but to subconsciously try to cover up what he was writing.

As a result, he stretched out his hand and felt that the performance was too obvious, so he had to stop and smiled awkwardly at Lu Lingxi.

"You are here? Sit, sit!"

Seeing his actions, Lu Lingxi became curious.

"Brother Tang, what are you doing?"

Tang Fan coughed lightly: "It's nothing, just write it casually."

He supported his elbow and wanted to turn over. It seemed that his strength was not mastered properly, and his brows furrowed.

Lu Lingxi hurried forward to help him: "What's wrong with Brother Tang? What's the doctor said?"

"The doctor said," Tang Fan coughed again, "and his waist flashed."

Lu Lingxi was stunned: "That's serious enough. You can't even go to the ground?"

Tang Fan smiled and said, "It's not that. It's just that the cabinet has a lot of things recently. Every night, I just go back almost midnight. I'm a little tired, so I just take the opportunity to take a day off."

Lu Lingxi remembered the surprise he was going to give him and smiled and said, "Brother Tang will be too tired in the future!"

Tang Fan raised his eyebrows: "Hmm? What do you say?"

Lu Lingxi smiled and said, "The four new cabinets in Hanlin Academy have been close to the cabinet master. I am one of them. They are just assigned to you, Brother Tang. I will ask you to give me more advice in the future, but if you have instructions, you will do everything!"

Tang Fan was a little surprised, and then smiled admiringly, saying two good words, looking very happy.

He had known for a long time that Lu Lingxi would have a future sooner or later, but when he first met, the other party's youth had not yet faded, and he could not hide his sharpness in his actions. He was free and casual, and was not suitable for his career. Now that he had taken the Jinshi exam, he was indeed much more calm.

Lu Lingxi stared at the other party's smiling face a little fascinated. After a while, he heard Tang Fan say "What is you holding in your hand?" He realized that his behavior was a bit rude and quickly put the cardboard box on the table.

"This is rose cake and osmanthus cake. I heard you like to eat sweets... Huh?"

As he spoke, he saw the manuscript paper placed by Tang Fan from the corner of his eyes. A few lines of words were drawn to his eyes, and his attention was immediately attracted.

"This is... the last draft of "The Warring States Period"?" Lu Lingxi was a little unbelievable when he saw the familiar names on it. "Brother Tang, can you be the author of "The Warring States Period"?!"

Tang Fan touched his nose, and a little embarrassed appeared on his face, neither admitting nor denying it.

But there is no need to admit it. Just looking at his expression, Lu Lingxi already knew the answer.

But this answer is really shocking.

"The Warring States Period" is a book that is popular recently in the bookstore and is also the best-selling book. The plot is ups and downs and fascinating. It requires the wind and moon, and the stories are very popular. Of course, those sour readers will always sneer at it, but this does not prevent many people from buying it home and taking a look. Even the storytellings spoken in teahouses recently are mostly "The Warring States Period".

Because this book was published in volume, many people were anxious to read the plot after reading the first volume, so many follow-ups of "The Warring States Period" with imitation and counterfeit author "Mr. Sanqing" appeared on the market.

Many people are also very curious about the authors of books, but those who usually write books and sell books are all those down-and-out literati. Because of their difficulties in life, they have to rely on money to make money to make a living. Lu Lingxi naturally heard that some literati and officials also secretly wrote books under their pen names, but the identities of those people were not exposed in the end, so no one knows the true or false.

But now, there was a real person in front of me.

The cabinet master, the prime minister of the dynasty, took a vacation to write a message book at home.

And he wrote it quite successfully. Even Lu Lingxi couldn't put it down in his spare time.

But the connection between the two is incredible.

The author of the book I like to read is Mr. Sanqing, the legendary down-and-out literati = Tang Fan, the Grand Secretary of the Dongge and Minister of Justice?
