Chapter 416 The Disliked Lin

Chapter 416 The Disliked Lin

After listening to Lin Tailai's summary of the three debates, a young man stood up angrily and yelled out of control: "Why are you haunting Mr. Gu!"

Gu Xiancheng also wanted to ask this question, but it was not convenient for him to ask it in person for fear that others would say he was cowardly.

Lin Tailai was like an academic assassin, traveling from Wuxi to Nanjing, and from Nanjing to the capital, making sneak attacks whenever he had the chance.

If it is to gain academic reputation, there are so many scholars in the world, why do you have to look for yourself?
In response to this question, Lin Daguan replied matter-of-factly: "Because only by asking Mr. Gu to discuss the scriptures can the world avoid being suspected of being a fraud."

Gu Xiancheng: "."

This statement makes too much sense to refute.

Given the enmity between Lin Tailai and the Qingliu forces, no one would doubt that Gu Xiancheng would help Lin Tailai commit academic fraud, and besides, Gu Xiancheng himself was a very upright person.

In fact, there was no need for Lin Tailai to deliberately summarize the results of three Bible studies. At this time, everyone was shocked!
Most of the people at the banquet had a stereotype of Lin Daguan, thinking that he was a reckless man, or adding a prefix, he was a scheming reckless man, but he had nothing to do with academics.

Academic debate cannot be false at all, unlike poetry, which can be opportunistic.

Challenging professionals as an amateur is indeed more difficult than expected.

Even if Lin Daguan was defeated academically by Gu Xiancheng, he would have nothing to be ashamed of.

He made a bow to everyone in a leisurely manner, then rolled up his sleeves, stepped calmly, stepped over the beauty who was still lying on the ground, and left the venue.

Jiangnan, especially the city of Suzhou, is also a publishing center today. There are many booksellers, and there are Suzhou people opening bookstores in the capital.

The first two times I met with Gu Xiancheng to debate scriptures, there was no fixed preset topic. I just had to find a novel point of view and make a sneak attack. It would be over with one successful attack, and there was no need to compete with internal strength.

"Today is really dangerous. If we talk for a little longer, I won't be able to hold on anymore!" Lin Tailai said with lingering fear.

But this time, there was a fixed preset question. Under this premise, the competition was internal strength. Fortunately, I relied on five hundred years of accumulation of moves to use tricks, and I barely managed to delay Gu Xiancheng to stop.

After calming down, Official Lin told Zuo Protector Zhang Wen: "Go back to your residence first, and I will write down today's scripture analysis!
Then you take it to the bookstore and quickly engrave and print the book together with the contents of the first two Bible studies! "

Unexpectedly, Lin Tai barged in when he arrived, and actually fought with Gu Xiancheng for dozens of rounds in the academic field. Who would have dared to believe it if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes?

After looking at the expressions around him, Lin Daguan knew that today's goal had been achieved.

In fact, Lin Daguan had already become sullen just now. If Gu Xiancheng tried his best to hurt both sides and continued regardless of sparing his feathers, Lin Daguan would have collapsed.

In the final analysis, it is because Lin Daguan's psychological quality is better. After all, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.

He thought about printing the content of his three Bible discussions with Gu Xiancheng into a book at his own expense, and then distributing it among the scholars for free.

Previously, Lin Tailai had contacted a bookshop from his hometown in Suzhou to make preparations for engraving and printing the book.

Lin Daguan's expression was calm, but he quickly made a gesture. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's go quickly!
Suddenly for some unknown reason, someone in the room shouted: "Lin Sheng, wait!"

The two guardian Zhang brothers have already called in and are waiting under the steps outside the hall.

Gu Xiancheng dared to give regular lectures in the capital and became an academic star. He really had a lot of skills.

It wasn't until they reached the intersection outside that Lin Daguan felt relieved.

On the contrary, Gu Xiancheng had all kinds of baggage of "cannot afford to lose" and chose to stop the psychological game.

It's as if Ximen Qing broke into the world of novels about gifted men and beautiful women and won two rankings of Jinshi.

Lin Tailai pretended not to hear the call and ran out without saying a word, followed by all his men.

In the game of Vanity Fair, you can't always fight and kill. If you are not short of money, then you have to pick up the krypton gold game.

In this era, the price of books was really high. Zhang Wen calculated and said, "If we print a thousand copies and send them out, we won't be able to get more than two hundred taels."

Official Lin snorted coldly: "You can take out two hundred taels, but at least two thousand copies will be printed! If the bookstore refuses, then the owner of the bookstore will never be able to return to Suzhou to retire in peace!"

"Two hundred taels is a bit too much." Zhang Wen wanted to save more.

Before going to Beijing, Lin Tailai didn't think much about it. In addition, the community industry has continued to invest heavily and occupied a lot of funds, so he only brought a thousand taels of money, but now it is obviously not enough.

Thinking of this, Official Lin sighed, and then told Zhang Wu, the right protector: "You can run an errand and go to Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion to borrow it from Governor Li. Borrow a thousand taels first."

When he returned to his residence, Lin Tailai wrote down the content of today's academic debate.

Protector Zuo Zhang Wen asked: "Last time, the bookshop steward asked me what to name this book?"

After thinking for a while, Lin Daguan replied: "The title of the book will be "The Three Difficulties of Wu Zhuangyuan and Gu Daru"!"

In the pre-examination task list, most of the aspects of brushing up on academic reputation have been completed and can be left alone for the time being.

From then on, he continued to build his reputation and reputation among the candidates by treating guests to food, drinks and entertainment.

The next wave of people invited were scholars from Shandong Province. Speaking of which, Lin Daguan had a close relationship with Shandong, and was even closer than the neighboring Zhejiang Province. First of all, Lin Tailai was the son-in-law of Shandong, especially the brother-in-law of the Minister of Household Registration in Shandong, which made Shandong scholars more friendly to Lin Daguan.

At the same time, Lin Daguan also held the title of successor of Qi Jiguang's marksmanship and was regarded as a disciple of Shandong martial arts.

In addition, Lin Daguan is the most famous expert on "Jin Ping Mei" today, and the relationship between "Jin Ping Mei" and Shandong is theoretically the closest. Shandong scholars all want to talk to Lin Daguan about this book. A masterpiece.

After gathering with the scholars from Shandong, it was the last seven or eight days of the end of the 16th year of Wanli. Lin Daguan suspended the banquets for scholars from various provinces.

Now most of the yamen have been sealed and no longer handle official business. Moreover, each yamen would hold public banquets, similar in nature to the get-togethers held by various units in later generations.

According to the plan, Lin Daguan would selectively attend one or two public banquets, and then take the opportunity to publish poems to promote his talents.

Zhou Yingqiu suggested: "If you want to promote your talent and reputation, you should attend the banquet of the Hanlin Academy. Among all government agencies, Hanyuan's poems are the most widely circulated."

But Lin Daguan is not an official, let alone a Hanlin official, so he is definitely not qualified to directly participate in the Hanlin Academy banquet. He could only find someone to bring him in as a future disciple.

So Lin Daguan missed his beloved chief minister. Because of the special relationship between the cabinet and the Hanlin Academy, cabinet bachelors would attend the Hanlin Academy banquet.

Lin Tailai arrived at the Shen Mansion that day. At this time of the year, there were many people visiting the chief minister to make connections, but Lin Tailai did not line up at the gate and was directly invited to wait in the inner courtyard study.

Then there was nothing more. There were probably too many people coming to the door, and Shen Shoufu didn't have time to meet Lin Tailai.

Lin Daguan understood this very well. This was a sign of his own people being indifferent to outsiders, so he had no choice but to go back first.

The next day, Lin Tailai came to the Shen Mansion again, and was warmly invited to the study room in the inner courtyard to wait, where he was served delicious food and drinks.

Then, there was no more.

Looking at the westward sun outside, Lin Daguan felt a little bad and said to the servant outside the door: "I want to see Prime Minister Shen! Otherwise, I will live here and never leave!"

After a while, Shen Yongmao appeared reluctantly.

Originally, the purpose of Senior Official Lin's visit was to ask the Chief Assistant to take him to the Hanlin Academy banquet, but now he has a more important question: "Why doesn't the Chief Assistant see me?"

If it were anyone else, Shen Yongmao would have just pretended to be confused and said something like "avoid suspicion before taking the exam."

But for Lin Daguan, this kind of nonsense is obviously useless, so Shen Yongmao answered honestly:

"In the twenty years since my father entered the government, he has established the government with a generous, gentle and emotionally intelligent image, which is why he has been able to stand firm despite repeated turbulences.

However, in the past two years, my father's image in the court has tended to be sinister and ruthless, so my father recently felt that he needed to start repairing and improving his personal image. "

Lin Tailai pointed at himself and asked: "You mean, the change in the image of the chief minister is all because of me?"

Shen Yongmao asked, "Isn't it?"

Lin Tailai shouted: "I don't accept it! I have done so many things for the chief assistant, you can't treat me like a chamber pot!"

Shen Yongmao gave an example directly: "Take the past few days as an example. You forced the bookshop to print two thousand books for you, but the bookshop was run by the Xu family in Huqiu, and my father suppressed the matter.

Also, you publicly beat up the women in the Lehu who were registered in the Jiaofangsi. The Ministry of Rites, who was responsible for managing the Lehu and relied on the business of the Jiaofangsi to contribute to the small treasury, was extremely dissatisfied with this. It was also my father who suppressed the matter.

There are too many things like this. Why don’t your father wipe your butt? Who is whose chamber pot? "

Lin Tailai: "."

Finally, Shen Yongmao persuaded: "So please don't follow my father to the Hanlin Academy banquet, and let my father show a good image to others. I sincerely ask you!"
If you go, who knows what trouble you will cause, but let everyone have a stable and peaceful New Year. "

There is no father here, there is a place to keep the father!
Official Lin came out of Shen's Mansion angrily, turned around and entered Wang's house, the Minister of Household Affairs.

If you can’t attend the official banquet of the Hanlin Academy, you can attend the banquet of the Ministry of Revenue!

Wang Situ said frankly: "If we don't talk to each other, please give me a face and don't go to the official banquet of the Ministry of Finance, okay?"

Lin Tailai: "."

Wang Situ explained: “The Household Department is different from other government offices and needs to be connected, colluded with each other and work closely together.

I'm afraid that when you come to the public banquet of the Ministry of Revenue, you will break the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, cause some trouble, and affect the unity within the government office. "

Lin Tailai asked: "I'm just attending the banquet. What trouble can I cause?"

Regarding Lin Tailai's trouble-making ability, Wang Situ was not very confident that he could be "stable and peaceful".

"For example, I heard that you are planning to print two thousand books recently. What if you go to a public banquet and force them to be distributed and force others to study?"

Lin Daguanren found that when he needed stability and peace, he was so disliked by everyone.

Don’t you just want to brush up on your talents before taking the exam, but they don’t even give you a platform!
