It is normal for it to attract forest types.
How can we get Dean Chen to come and visit us?
When officials served in the imperial court, the saying "what the superiors do, the subordinates follow" held true.
Even if they don't understand, they still know that they should just follow the leader's example.
After all, this person is highly valued by two important figures.
His future career will surely be smooth and promising.
It's certainly not wrong to curry favor with them as soon as possible.
As a result, people dared not stay at home on their days off.
They all carried gifts, large and small bags, and went to Mr. Su's home.
In an instant, the long street in front of the Su residence was completely blocked.
However, when they arrived at the Su residence, they were all turned away at the closed door.
After all, Su Yu did not want to become an official.
I don't want to have any social obligations with these officials; it's too much trouble.
At first, the servants of the Su family went out to explain.
As the number of people increased, the servants became too lazy to speak.
They simply hung a sign at the entrance.
The gist is that Mr. Su was preparing for the imperial examination and was closing his doors to visitors.
Unable to meet the gentleman, the officials left disappointed, carrying their gifts.
I look forward to visiting again after the palace examination.
I don't know who it was, but they were the first to leave the gift at the door before casually leaving.
Then, it inspired others to follow suit.
Of course, they are not afraid of these gifts; Mr. Su will not know who sent them.
Because the gift boxes clearly already contained name cards or other markings.
This was naturally a tacit understanding that everyone had developed over many years of service in office.
Su Yu, of course, accepted it all.
Whether or not I get anything done is another matter, and whether or not I make friends with anyone is also irrelevant.
But gifts delivered to your doorstep cannot be refused.
Su Yu doesn't have any moral fastidiousness in this regard.
So much so that they left.
The servants at the Su residence spent most of the day moving the gifts, and they were all panting heavily from exhaustion.
Su Yu lay idly watching people unwrap their gifts, thoroughly enjoying herself.
What about East China Sea red coral, what about Changbai Mountain ginseng, what about rubies, what about green jade?
Su Yu couldn't help but sigh after seeing it.
Those officials in Kyoto are damn rich.
Just how much did they embezzle?
The fact that Chen Pingping entered Su's residence caused a sensation among the officials in Beijing.
The candidates who waited in Kyoto for the palace examination.
Hearing this news, I had very mixed feelings.
Not long ago, it is said that the current prime minister, Lin Ruofu, visited this Su residence.
Not long after, another important figure, Director Chen of the Censorate, visited the Su residence.
Just who exactly is Su Yu?
They have such a big face.
Can Su Yu still take the imperial examination?
No need at all!
Why? Why?!
Is it simply because he was so young that he passed the imperial examination with top honors?
Just because he is not yet twenty, does that mean he can be called a miracle doctor?
Is it simply because he is handsome and has an extraordinary demeanor?
It's unfair, so unfair!
It seems like all the good things in life have come to this one person.
At this moment, which student in the capital didn't secretly shout out in their heart?
I'm so envious and jealous!
However, this applies to both officials and students.
Some of the smart ones among them started to consider another point.
They couldn't help but become curious.
The head of the Censorate and the head of the civil service are not from the same school of thought.
The responsibilities on both sides are completely different.
There are even rumors that the two had a public argument and that they disliked each other intensely.
The saying goes, "A gentleman seeks harmony but not uniformity, while a petty person seeks uniformity but not harmony."
These two people are both different and at odds.
So, whose side is Mr. Su Yu on?
It seems that taking sides with either side is not a good idea, as it will inevitably offend someone else.
Well, it doesn't seem like such a good thing.
……
Kyoto, Lin Mansion.
Lin Ruofu was handling official business in his study.
Although today is a day off for officials.
But as prime minister, he was the head of the civil service.
There are many things to handle, so there's no time to relax.
It's just that they don't have to attend court anymore.
You can handle your affairs in your study at home.
Before long, a servant knocked on the door and handed over a note.
The sign above clearly stated that Director Chen of the Censorate had personally visited the Su residence.
They came with smiles, and they leave with smiles.
The deeper meaning behind this is worth careful consideration.
As Lin Ruofu looked at the words on the note, that old face appeared before his eyes.
His face was covered in wrinkles, and when he smiled, he seemed cunning and malicious.
In short, it's disgusting!
Lin Ruofu frowned, deep in thought.
What was that old bastard Chen Pingping doing at the Su residence?
Could it be that he also wants to win over Su Yu, this talented person?
What are you going there for? Are you going to the Censorate to do those shady, dirty things?
I really don’t know what to say.
No, Su Yu definitely won't agree.
That young man was a man of ambition.
Last time, when I extended an olive branch, Su Yu didn't accept it.
The young man said he wanted to teach and nurture people, and to establish an academy.
Thinking about all this, Lin Ruofu picked up the tea on the table and took a small sip.
But what's that old bastard Chen Pingping laughing about? Is he smug?
"Hiss," Lin Ruofu gasped again.
He suddenly started to feel insecure again.
Last time, Su Yu said that he took the imperial examination but did not want to become an official.
He wanted to open the 89 Academy 3 to teach and nurture students.
Is this true...?
Is this just an excuse to cover up your own shortcomings?
Hmm, that makes some sense.
After all, who would possess such extraordinary talent and not choose to become an official?
And he was willing to become a teacher to help all living beings?
It's unreasonable, it's really unreasonable.
Lin Ruofu frowned even more deeply.
