At this time, the rain had just cleared, and water was dripping beside the eaves of the alleys in Shijingfang.

Under the lights, the people spoke in front of Lin Yanchao, and they were respectful to Hai Ruiji in their words.

This name is not called for nothing. In Guide, the people also call Lin Yanchao Lin Qingtian.

But when he arrived at the capital, the people called Lin Sanyuan because there was a Hai Qingtian in the capital. Compared with Hai Rui, no official could call him the word Qingtian in front of him.

The commoner was very excited to speak. When the gentleman in the room coughed, his eyes looked out, and he seemed to blame his voice for being too loud, which made the students recite their homework.

The people were glared at this gaze and immediately shut up and didn't say anything. They wanted to be as obedient as they were.

Lin Yanchao nodded when he saw this. From the people to the Confucians, everyone can respect teachers. This is the country of etiquette.

So Lin Yanchao stopped staying, looked at the Confucian boy who was studying hard in the room and then left.

Then the voice of the gentleman came from the room.

"You must memorize the thousand-character text when you go back. You must not memorize a single word incorrectly, otherwise you will be held accountable tomorrow..."

Lin Yanchao smiled when he heard this, walked out of the yard and got on the carriage.

Lin Yanchao asked Zhan Ming in his seat, "Governor Yixue Yamen, do you still remember how to leave?"

Zhan Ming said: "Remember, but the Yixue Yamen had already closed the office at this time."

"It's okay, just go and have a look."

The Yixue Yamen is near the Imperial College, and Lin Yanchao is not far away now. Zhan Ming was downloading Lin Yanchao, and in just a few steps, he came to the Yixue Yamen.

Lin Yanchao got off the carriage, but he saw that the yamen had really closed the office.

This Governor Yixue Yamen is different from other Beijing Yamen. Although it is also a third-rank yamen, it is very simple.

Apart from a plaque 'Governor Shuntianfu Yixue', there is nothing special.

But Lin Yanchao still remembers the sound of Hai Rui shouting in front of the Yixue Yamen when he first took office that he wanted to use every tael of silver that the emperor had allocated to the people.

Three years have passed now.

Lin Yanchao walked in front of the yamen with his hands behind his back, but at this time the gate of the official office opened lightly.

Lin Yanchao looked at it, but saw an official carrying a cup of anger and was sending an old man out.

The official said beside him: "Master, be careful of the steps."

But when I saw the old man, he looked old, but his voice was stubborn: "Although I was old and dizzy, I still recognize the steps."

Seeing this scene, Lin Yanchao took a few steps and asked, "Is this Haibudo?"

The old man looked over and said, "Who are you? If you come again tomorrow, I will not be allowed to pay private visits after closing the office."

Lin Yanchao laughed and looked closely, but he saw that the most noble minister of the Ming Dynasty was already in his seventies. He was much older than Hai Rui, who saw in Beijing three years ago. His temples were gray, his face and hands were covered with old-fashioned spots, and his eyes were already turbid.

Lin Yanchao sighed: "Haibutang misunderstood. The lower official Lin Yanchao happened to pass by here, but unexpectedly met him on the road."

"Lin Yanchao?" Hai Rui chewed Lin Yanchao's name in his mouth, looked slightly back and said in surprise, "It's you? Have you returned to Beijing?"

"Yes, it's great to meet Hibedo unexpectedly."

Hai Rui nodded and said, "This is not a place to talk. Zong Hai doesn't dislike it and come to my house to talk."

Hai Rui's home is not far from Yixue Yamen, and it is a remote place in the north of the city.

Needless to say, Hai Rui chose to live here, it must be because of the low rent.

Seeing that Hai Rui was so old that he had to walk home, Lin Yanchao suggested sending him in a carriage. But Hai Rui refused, so Lin Yanchao had to accompany Hai Rui for a while.

After Lin Yanchao came to the house, he saw more than a dozen people from the Hai family crowded in these three rooms. The curtains were made of gauze cloth and the furniture was just broken bamboo utensils.

The two sat on the bamboo chair in the yard, and the servants served tea to Hai Rui and Lin Yanchao.

The tea is filled with a large sea bowl. The mouth of the sea bowl has been knocked a few places, and the bowl is filled with broken tea powder.

The two talked about establishing a charity school for a while.

Then Lin Yanchao stood up and bowed, "If the tribes in front of Fengtianmen had not been able to protect the officials in front of the saint, the officials would not know where they were today. Today, they would be able to return to Beijing to report their duties by the saint. Thank you for your kindness."

Lin Yanchao was about to worship, but Hai Rui stopped Lin Yanchao.

Hai Rui said solemnly: "Zonghai thanked the wrong person. Although the emperor is young, Yingrui will never be wronged if he is not under the temple. You should thank him and thank him carefully."

Lin Yanchao said: "Hai Gong..."

Hai Rui said: "Actually, you really don't need to thank me. At the beginning, Hai was biased against you. Your officials in Fujian were too exaggerated. For example, a treacherous minister like Cai Jing was good at embellishing his voice. Your article was well written, good at guessing the will of the emperor, and advocated the promotion of learning, but completely ignored the destruction of official administration in the officialdom, and the royal relatives and relatives were violently accumulating the people's wealth. What is the difference between your move and Cai Jing..."

Cai Jing presided over Chongning Xingxue during his tenure and set up schools across the country.

But seeing Hai Rui saying sternly: "...In the current situation of declining rivers, you don't persuade the emperor to use thunder and make drastic moves, but slow down the wind and drizzle. Isn't this a disaster for the country? You later sent Hai to do this and gain reputation for yourself. If it weren't for your final memorial, Hai would not hesitate to anger the emperor at that time, and he would also write a letter to impeach you."

Lin Yanchao covered his face and thought to himself, it was so dangerous, he almost hanged it in the hands of Hai Gangfeng, whom he recommended.

Do you have a grudge against the person who recommended you? You must fight against Xu Jie and I, Lin Yanchao, who were bothered by you?

Hai Rui said: "Later, I read your memorial on admonition and wrote very well. When I read this article, I had a very talented and talented article. Although it was not all heartfelt words, it pointed out the real disadvantages. It dared not speak what others dared not speak, and it dared not do what others dared not."

Lin Yanchao felt angry, but said to himself: "Haibutang, don't draw a conclusion too early. The subordinates may also borrow a memorial to buy a fame directly."

Hai Rui laughed and said, "Reduce the cost of Lu Wang's wedding, and save four million taels for the people to help Su Song and millions of disaster victims in Henan. What if Hai was deceived by you?"

"Besides, Hai is not a fool. Your article means to be dying and going home. When I first read this article, Hai Rui couldn't bear to fall into tears... shed tears."

Lin Yanchao felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, but Hai Rui couldn't help coughing.

Seeing this, Lin Yanchao hurriedly said, "Is Hai Gong good in his body?"

Hai Rui said: "It's okay, I can hold on. Just drink the medicine soup."

The family on the side was bringing medicine to Hai Rui, but when they saw this scene, they looked sad.

Lin Yanchao knew that Hai Rui's condition was not as simple as he said.

Lin Yanchao advised: "Plutocratic Nationality, please take care of yourself and have more rest."

After taking the medicine, Hai Rui straightened his body and said, "I know this body, but I am in my seventies. Even if I don't rest, I will have a few days to do my business for the emperor."

"Zonghai, don't interrupt me, what's going on just now? Yes, you have done two things in the two matters. You scolded the Empress Dowager and King Lu, took over the power for the emperor, and saved Zhang Jiangling's funeral, and preserved the reputation of the promising prime minister. Where is your selfish intention?"

Hai Rui's words were very sharp, and Lin Yanchao said seriously: "I have no selfishness, I am entirely for the people and the world."

Hai Rui smiled and said, "Zonghai, Hai Rui is in his seventies and is about to die. What do you mean by lying to me? I have seen your achievements in Guide and are truly worthy of being a capable minister. Later, I read your article on your knowledge of merit and know that your heart lies in the world. Hai asked you, "Does Zonghai want to be the prime minister in the future and implement reforms during his tenure, just like Zhang Jiangling's new policy?"

Lin Yanchao denied, "Haigong, you are wrong. Lin is not sure if he is going to or leaving now, and he can't even go back to the Hanlin Academy. How dare you expect the prime minister? What's more, you can do anything for the court in any official position, right? For example, if Mr. Hai works hard on the work of righteous studies, his future achievements may not be inferior to those of the prime minister in the eyes of the officials."

Hai Rui was silent when he heard this, and then sighed, "Then pretend that Hai was wrong. Although Zhang Jiangling did not use Hai, Hai wrote to the emperor and said that this person had eight words: "It is good at planning the country, but it is not difficult to plan for the body." However, Zong Hai can plan for the whole country and make a self-study. If you don't do something for the prime minister and the people of the world, it would be a pity."

Lin Yanchao shook his head and said, "As the Prime Minister, where can the subordinate officials have such skills? Hai Gong is so proud of his subordinate officials."

Hai Rui sighed to the sky, "Zonghai, you and I can see that the court is just a broken house now, and everyone is just repairing and rushing. One day, when the heavy rain and wind come, the house will collapse. To save this house, you have to change the pillars and beams. When the idle person doesn't change it well, the house will collapse first, or the pillars will be smashed to death by themselves."

"Hai knows his ability, so he can only be a papermaker, and he will be the only one who can do it, but it will make the outside of the house look stronger. Moreover, Hai is old and has not been around for many days. I have nothing to close my eyes, but I don't know if the country is prosperous and the people are safe in a hundred years, and the mountains and rivers are still there?"

After saying that, Hai Rui showed deep worries.

Lin Yanchao looked at Hai Rui who was still worried about the country and the people, but he didn't know what to say in his heart.

The two chatted for a few more times, and then Lin Yanchao stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, Hai Rui suddenly said to Lin Yanchao: "Zong Hai may keep what Hai said today. If there is such a day in the future, I will try it. Hai will never think of anyone else in the court except you."

Lin Yanchao's expression moved, and he didn't say anything, but just bowed to Hai Rui.

Later, Hai Rui sent his subordinates to send Lin Yanchao out.

When he arrived outside the door, Lin Yanchao saw that the person was the one who had just delivered medicine to Hai Rui, so he asked, "How is your Master Hai's condition?"

At first, the man stammered, and couldn't help asking in detail, and then he said, "My master came to Beijing this time and took up his post with illness. He was also very tired and his health was not very good."

As expected, Lin Yanchao said, "Then why do you ask a famous doctor to treat him?"

The servant sighed, "I've invited it, but the master refused to accept the gifts. There is still a family in my hometown to raise. How can I afford good medicine with my salary?"

Lin Yanchao said solemnly: "How can this work? You will give me the prescriptions in the future. No matter how expensive the medicine is, I will catch it for you Mr. Hai."
