Seven hundred and twentieth chapters Shen Shixing's advice

After Chen Yiguan left.

The maid handed Shen Shixing a hot towel. While wiping his hands, Shen Shixing smiled with Lin Yanchao who was eating watermelons: "The old man should not be greedy, otherwise he will have diarrhea. You are a young man who eats more to relieve the heat."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "My teacher is always healthy. Are you asking students to eat more?"

Shen Shixing smiled, looked at Lin Yanchao eating watermelon in big mouthfuls, and then asked, "After saying that, what's wrong with me when you come to me at night?"

Lin Yanchao put down the watermelon and looked at Shangshen Shixing and said, "Today, the second and third sons of the Zhang family came to look for students."

Shen Shixing nodded and said, "It's Zhang Sixiu, Zhang Maoxiu."

Lin Yanchao said: "Yes, the "Last Words of the Sickbed" which is suspected to be Gao Xinzheng's last work was circulated among the Shilin. They were worried that someone would be unfavorable to Wen Zhonggong and hope that students could make suggestions in front of His Holiness."

Hearing this, Shen Shixing picked up the tea and blew it, "I remember you have no personal relationships with the two young masters of the Zhang family."

After hearing this, Lin Yanchao's heart suddenly sank.

Lin Yanchao continued: "The students did not have any personal relationships with the two young masters, and they even had a little holiday. But the students found it strange, why didn't they go to find Eunuch Feng? He had the East Factory. It was easy to find anyone who wrote this book. Why did they just want to find students? Could it be that Eunuch Feng was unable to protect himself?"

Shen Shixing took a sip of tea ceremony: "Yanchao, you are too worried. Eunuch Feng is the eunuch of the company's eunuch and the head of the East Factory. If there is no priest, who can touch him? You are too worried. Although Feng Shuanglin did not have a title this time, his nephew was still appointed as the commander of the Jinyiwei."

"A few days ago, the governor of Fujian, Lao Kan, was promoted to the Associate General of the Left Deputy Censor, and Wang Zhuan was promoted from the Right Minister of Personnel to the Left Minister of the Headquarters. Previously, Chen Jingbang was the Left Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Chen Siyu was the guest of the Prince, and the Minister of Works Zeng Shengwu held the wedding of King Lu and built the residence of Prince Lu's Mansion. This shows that the emperor still valued the old people of Wen Zhonggong in the past and did not intend to abolish the new policy."

"As for the unrealistic rumors in the government and the country, you and I don't believe them for now, as the rumors will pass after a while."

Lin Yanchao thought that Shen Shixing's words were like the clichés he and the Zhang brothers said. However, Feng Bao was at the peak of his life now. This time, the old man who recommended Zhang Juzheng to win a great victory is proof.

Then Feng Bao always looks as stable as Mount Tai, let alone Zhang Juzheng?

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "The students will feel relieved when the teacher said this."

Shen Shixing clearly didn't want to explain the words clearly, so what's the use of asking him again? In fact, when he saw Chen Yiguan take out Wang Xijue's letter just now, Lin Yanchao knew that he had gone for nothing.

Lin Yanchao stood up and said to Shen Shixing: "Since you are such a mentor, the student will say goodbye. Please take care of yourself."

After saying that, Lin Yanchao bowed to Shen Shixing and left.

"Yanchao, sit down and talk to me."

Lin Yanchao walked to the door of the house, but Shen Shixing stopped him.

After Lin Yanchao took his seat again, Shen Shi said earnestly: "Yanchao, do you remember that I ordered your Huiyuan, and then the three yuan was the first to pass?"

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "It's not just Huiyuan, the top scholar, and students are also supported by you all the way. Students will never forget the kindness of their mentors in their lives."

Shen Shixing said, "I have no other meaning, I just remember that you and I are both top scholars, and I have achieved today by relying on the imperial examination. I remember that when I was the top scholar in high school in 41st year of Jiajing, I was still called Xu Shixing."

"I have been following my uncle since I was a child, so I followed his surname. My biological father's surname is Shi Zhang, and I was a student in Changzhou County. When I was ten years old, my uncle brought me with me and wanted to see him, but he stayed in the door."

"Later, I studied hard and won the top scorer by chance. I returned home in glory and returned to Suzhou. When I went to Shen Mansion to visit, my biological father died of illness, but Shen Mansion said that I wanted me to return to the clan. After I asked my uncle, he said that I was originally from the Shen family's bloodline and should be returned to the general. So I agreed."

Shen Shixing's short sentences revealed his life experience.

Shen Shixing was an illegitimate son. At that time, the status of an illegitimate son was not a formal marriage for his biological father, and even the son born to a concubine was not as good as that of a concubine. According to the rules of ancient families, illegitimate sons could not only be able to divide the father's property, but also could not follow the father's surname, nor could they be included in the genealogy.

Shen Shixing's biological father did not treat him as his biological son, but after Shen Shixing became the top scholar, according to normal principles, he should go to the Shen family to slap him in the face. However, Shen Shixing did not, but instead returned to the Zongshen family. This modern person seems a bit strange, but this move is consistent with the filial piety of the ancients.

Shen Shixing said self-deprecatingly: "Since my uncle's life, I have lived under someone's roof and looked at people's eyes, I have become a little soft and cowardly, I like to live under others, and I am deeply afraid of leading things. Wang Fengzhou said that since I became an official, I have never stood up and said that it is not a good idea."

Lin Yanchao looked up and said, "Teacher..."

Shen Shixing waved his hand and said, "Actually, Yanchao, you come to the mansion. I already know what you want to say."

"You and I are both from poor families, and they are the top scholars. They plant pine and cypress in the land, and their poor children study. Isn't this the same thing? I am not as good as Zhang Puzhou, you are not as good as Zhang Maoxiu and Zhang Taizheng. Therefore, in the officialdom, we must keep a low profile. Every step must be like walking on thin ice, otherwise it will be a mistake and lose all the money, and there will be no chance to make a comeback."

"I shouldn't have spoken out with you at all. Zeng Shengwu, Wang Zhuan and the others came to me, so I can be vague, but you can't. Because you are my student, I am the one who I am carrying, and I have the status of today through my own efforts. After I retire in the future, you will protect my family and the affairs behind me in the court. Therefore, you must listen to my advice."

Shen Shixing was really nice to him. Lin Yanchao asked, "Mr., what I listen to you is, please give me instructions."

Shen Shixing said: "From now on, don't look, don't ask, don't say anything. Keep everything in your heart? If someone asks you, just bow. If you don't speak, you won't be wrong. Saying a wrong word will cause you to burn your body, and I will not be able to protect you by then!"

Shen Shixing's words made Lin Yanchao's heart thump, and he felt fear trembling. With his experience as an official, he knew where this fear came from.

Lin Yanchao said: "It turns out that my teacher recommended me as the Nanjing Provincial Examination Examination because I was afraid that I would say the wrong thing in the court."

Shen Shixing sighed, "Don't I know your personality yet? You are not an official to be an official."

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Students understand, and they will definitely keep in mind the teachings of their teachers. Students have the last thing to ask for advice on their teachers."

"you say."

"The storm is coming, mentor, which side are you on?"

Shen Shixing said, "What a saying, "The wind and storm are coming. If you want the eight winds to not blow, sit up the purple golden lotus, you must climb up the wind."

"Where is the wind?"

Shen Shixing stretched out his finger and pointed to the roof and said, "It's in the sky!"
