Of course, he didn't intend to tell Zhang Bugui about these things in detail.Firstly, Zhang Bugui needed to recuperate due to trauma, and secondly, because of Mr. Zhang's personality, if he told the matter to him, it would be tantamount to making it public.

The conversation between Xie Shen and Ning Yi was mysterious and mysterious, so it is not appropriate to disclose too much inside information to the public.To be on the safe side, Xie Shen decided to press first, and wait until Ning Yuanwai made a real decision before telling Zhang Bugui.

Wang Shouwen on the side also said to Chen Ran: "Brother Shenxian has always been safe in handling things, and I must have a bottom line in this matter. Brother Zhang, don't ask too many questions, just rest at ease."

Hearing the words, Zhang Bugui could only sigh and said, "I believe Brother Shen Xian is that."

After returning to the room and resting for the night, early the next morning, the senior officer of the education officer, Mr. Chen Fangyin, Mr. Chen, came to the hotel to take a roll call to see Xie Shen.

Poor Xie Shen was woken up by the book boy Chen Hu'er early in the morning when he was in a daze, washed up and came outside the corridor to meet with the great master's personal entourage.

Xie Shen was shocked when he found out why he came.It turns out that Liu Wen, the new eunuch guarding Hangzhou, arrived in Hangzhou ahead of schedule, and is now resting in the guarding eunuch's mansion.

The Grand Master originally planned to go out of the city to meet Eunuch Liu with all the officials of Hangzhou City. Who would have thought that this Eunuch Liu deliberately suppressed the itinerary and did not tell the post officials, and the officials did not know until he entered Hangzhou City.

This eunuch Liu's behavior is really low-key.

One yard owned by a yard.

Although preparations are needed for the gathering, and Ning Yining needs to make friends with other members of the staff, but Eunuch Liu still needs to meet.

Xie Shen also thought about this matter several times, and felt that it was not a good choice to avoid it and act as a clear stream.

All the officials from all over the city went, which at least proves that eunuch Liu is still very powerful.In Xie Shen's inherent impression, eunuchs are narrow-minded lords. Although they may be a little one-sided, it's better to think about the worst of things than to fall into bad luck.

Secondly, he felt that what Mr. Zhen Kewang said was indeed reasonable. A direct minister of Qingliu did not make a great contribution to the society.

Although he is not yet an official, at most he can only be regarded as a four-good young man who strives for the official status, but the problem is that since he wants to hang out in this circle, he must adapt to some rules of this circle.It doesn't necessarily mean that he wants to flatter Eunuch Liu, but it doesn't mean that he will be in trouble.

Don't you see that Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Jiangling are also in an alliance of interests with the great eunuch Feng Bao?

Of course, it's too early to think about that.What Xie Shen has to do is to get acquainted with as many court officials as possible during the study stage, preferably the senior officials of the fourth rank.
It is very difficult to have the opportunity to meet so many Hangzhou officials on weekdays, but now I really should not miss this opportunity.

After thinking about it, Xie Shen gave a few instructions to the bookboy Chen Hu'er, and went to the Chen residence together with the great master's personal entourage.

The two entered the gate of the mansion, walked through the hall and courtyard, and came to the back garden of Chen's mansion.Chen Fangyin had already changed into his official robe and was pacing in the courtyard, when he saw Xie Shen coming, his brows showed a little joy.

"Let's go with the old man."

Xie Shen cupped his hands at Chen Fangyin and said, "Dare to ask my mentor, where are you going this time?"

Chen Fangyin said indifferently: "Naturally, I will go to the governor's yamen."

"Oh?"

Xie Shen was a little surprised.It stands to reason that the guarding eunuch and governor should be regarded as the two most powerful people in Hangzhou City. Governor Liu De is not very good at hosting a banquet in the governor's yamen even for his own image.

Even Liu De ignored Qingyu to host a banquet in the governor's yamen, it seems that this eunuch Liu is indeed very powerful.

In his previous life, although Xie Shen worked hard on Ming history, his research on the Hongzhi Dynasty was not advanced at all.In addition, the group of eunuchs belonged to the unpopular among the unpopular. If it wasn't for the level of Liu Jin and Wei Zhongxian, it would be difficult for people to be interested in reading a large volume of research.

Hey, now Xie Shen can only cross the river by feeling the stones.Fortunately, there is a great master Chen Fangyin by his side, so it is not wrong to say it, right?

"Why, it's not in the governor's office, is it still in the old man's house?"

Chen Fangyin was obviously in a good mood, and after cursing with a smile, he strode towards the gate of the mansion.

Xie Shen didn't dare to push him too hard, and hurriedly stepped up to keep up.

A sedan chair has already been prepared outside Chen Fuyi's door.Chen Fangyin sat up first, and seeing Xie Shen still standing beside him, he lifted the curtain and frowned, "Come up quickly, don't you want to walk?"

This time Xie Shen was in a difficult situation, if it was an ordinary person, it would be fine, but Chen Fangyin was the academic officer who was in charge of education and politics in a province, and he was the teacher of countless scholars.The most difficult provincial examination in the imperial examination was to be presided over by the academic officer himself. Xie Shen naturally respected such a person. If it was reported that he was sitting in the same sedan chair with the teacher, it would probably cause criticism, right?
As if seeing what Xie Shen was thinking, Mrs. Chen Fangyin shot Xie Shen angrily and said, "This old man told you to sit up, so you should sit up. All the people who went to the banquet here are from various government offices in Hangzhou." Sir, who has seen the world better than you, a little doll. No one will go out and talk nonsense."

Chen Fangyin is worthy of being an old fritter with many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, and he hit the root of it with one sentence.

These officials are the best of the best, and they know very well that the more they say, the more mistakes they make, and the less they say, the less mistakes they make.As long as their vital interests are not affected, they will not chew their tongues.

If you continue to be hypocritical, you may even annoy the grand master, but the gain outweighs the loss.Xie Shen gritted his teeth and got on the sedan chair.

The space inside the sedan chair is much larger than Xie Shen imagined, and there is no feeling of cramping when two or three people are sitting on it.

However, the teacher and the student were sitting in the same sedan chair, and the atmosphere was still somewhat awkward.

Fortunately, the Chen residence is not too far from the Governor's Yamen, Xie Shen didn't hold back for a long time before the sedan chair fell down in a low voice.

Grandmaster Chen Fangyin walked out first, and Xie Shen followed behind.

It stands to reason that Liu De, the governor, hosted a banquet for Liu Wen, the guarding eunuch, and Xie Shen, a young scholar, was not eligible to attend.

But Mr. Chen brought him by his side, so he couldn't say much about it.

Following Chen Fangyin into the Governor's Yamen, passing through many courtyards, the two came to the back house.

It can be seen that Liu De is an official who pays attention to sentimentality. The whole back house is full of flowers, plants and bamboos, with waterside pavilions and pavilions, which is full of sentimentality.

Cleaning up the dust for the guarding eunuch is naturally a big event, and there are naturally strict requirements on the identity of the people who come to the banquet, and many people have been stuck to death just because of their rank.For a talented scholar like Xie Shen to be able to attend the banquet, I really have to thank Master Chen for his support and care.

Even so, the flower hall was full of officials big and small at this time, Xie Shen felt dazzled at a glance.

These officials seemed to have greeted them in advance, and they all wore official robes.

Xie Shen and Chen Fangyin were led by a servant to sit down near the flower garden, and they quietly waited for the arrival of the host of the banquet.

 Thanks to the book friend Kuaiji Yehe for the reward~
