The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

Chu Huaiyu's current position as the Minister of Zhongshu is not stable, many people are staring at his mistakes, as long as he makes a mistake, someone will immediately want to get him out of this position.

For Chu Huaiyu, he has worked hard all these years to get to where he is today. Zhongshu Province is directly under the emperor's jurisdiction. He only needs to work on his seniority in this position. When the time comes, when the previous one retires, he will be able to replace him. OK.

Originally, everything was in his plan, and it was just a few more years left.

Before, he was thinking of playing the emotional card so that Cen Yan could forgive him.Although Cen Yan is well-known, his influence is still there, and many people still believe in him.Originally, he was thinking that he could still make use of his remaining value, but he didn't expect this old man Cen Yan to backhand him with such a big gift, which caught him off guard.

For the sake of reputation, Chu Huaiyu would not speak up easily before he thought of the best solution.

This day, Chu Huaiyu rarely waited at the gate of the palace for a while after the imperial court. When he saw Lin Zhao coming out of the Hanlin Academy, he walked up and said, "Junior brother."

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhao walked past him as if he didn't hear him.

Chu Huaiyu endured it, and went up to laugh with him, and called again: "Junior Brother Lin Zhao."

Only then did Lin Zhao stand upright, as if he had just heard him calling him, stopped, and said, "So it's Chu Shilang, just now I heard someone calling Junior Brother, and thought you were calling someone else, so you were calling me? "

"How come, you are the only junior brother here. I was in a hurry that day in Jinyang Palace, and the two of us didn't have time to get to know each other well. Don't call me Chu Shilang, it sounds very strange, I asked you to yell If you call me senior brother, you can call me senior brother."

Chu Huaiyu said this very politely, and lowered his posture, which was enough face for Lin Zhao, the son of the Rong Palace.

I thought that the other party would give him some kindness, but Lin Zhao said, "Master Chu, I'm afraid you have misunderstood. The teacher said that although he used to recruit many disciples, I was the only one who entered the room. I don't know." Why does Chu Shilang always regard himself as my senior brother?"

"You!" Chu Huaiyu blushed, thanks to the fact that almost all the officials who came out of the palace gate had left, otherwise he would have been ridiculed by Lin Zhao, the upstart in Beijing, for no reason. Jokes await him.

Chu Huaiyu was able to get to his current position, and he was extremely tolerant, and he was sure to take revenge.

This time he agrees, but he will keep the matter in his heart, find an opportunity to bite like a poisonous tongue in the dark, and he will lose a piece of meat if he is not poisoned.

"Junior brother, although I have had some troubles with the teacher, those are between me and him. Besides, the teacher has never publicly said that he does not recognize me as a disciple, so I still deserve you to call me a senior brother." started."

"Oh? Really?" Lin Zhao glanced at him sideways. For some reason, Chu Huaiyu felt a little guilty.

"What I said is true." He seemed a little lacking in confidence, and added another sentence.

Lin Zhao patted the dust on his clothes, and looked at him squarely, "Then I will tell the teacher what you said when I go back, brother."

The word "senior brother" was emphasized by Lin Zhao, and he specially emphasized this title.

Chu Huaiyu's face was livid, and now he couldn't tell that Lin Zhao was laughing at him from the beginning to the end, so there was something wrong with his mind.

"I came here with good intentions to make friends with you. If you don't like it, you don't have to humiliate people like this. This is not what a gentleman does."

Lin Zhao retorted: "The person who stole the teacher's articles and manuscripts and then beat them back is the work of a gentleman?"

Chu Huaiyu's always gentle face finally couldn't control the cracks, and he said angrily, "What do you know! You can say whatever you want, and spread rumors, it's all up to your heart. Even if you are the son of the Rong Palace, Then you should also pay attention to your own words, don't forget, there is also a censor platform above the imperial court to supervise all officials."

"Who said I have no evidence."

"what?"

Chu Huaiyu was astonished, how could anyone have evidence, it was clear that they had already dealt with it back then.

Lin Zhao didn't want to get too entangled with him, so he didn't answer his words, turned around and walked towards the carriage of Prince Rong's Mansion.

Chu Huaiyu wanted to ask a few more questions, where did he get the evidence, but as soon as he walked in, he was stopped by Chen He who followed him.

Since Chen He came back, he was assigned by Lord Rong to be Lin Zhao's bodyguard.He usually has a serious expression on his face, he basically doesn't talk much, very similar to Feng Ke from before.

Seeing Chen He's dark face, Chu Huaiyu didn't dare to go forward.

After Lin Zhao left, Chu Huaiyu was very disturbed. He was used to being a modest gentleman in front of others, and now he looked a little hideous. Where did the evidence come from?

After returning, he ordered the valet to say: "Go and check, if there are any traces of what happened back then, it hasn't been dealt with cleanly."

The boy agreed and went down.As soon as he left the house, he heard the sharp sound of the teacup falling to the ground and shattering. Chu Huaiyu was full of anger today, and he had to work hard to maintain his warm and jade-like personality outside. Now he is the only one left in the room , I was finally able to lose my temper.

After Lin Zhao left from the palace gate, he didn't go back to the Rong Palace, but went to Jiang Ziyan's Tea Talk Lane.

In the corner of the second floor of Tea Talk Lane, there is a small but uniquely decorated private room.

But he didn't come here to meet Jiang Ziyan. If he met him, he would basically go to Jiang's house to wait for someone, and he would never avoid suspicion.

Chen Mian and Yang Su made an appointment for him to come here today, and the three of them have been very busy since they started working.

Although it was delayed for a while by Chu Huaiyu at the gate of the palace, he arrived in time and was not late.

Because he was the second to come, Chen Mian was the first to arrive, and when he saw him coming, he quickly pulled him to sit down, but Yang Su hadn't come yet.

Yang Su was busy running around in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. He couldn't speak to the head of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he couldn't be the master, but the daily files and other things, big and small, kept his feet on the ground.

The last time the three of them went out to have a drink like this was two months ago. Even when Lin Zhao returned to Prince Rong's Mansion, he only brought gifts to the wedding banquet held by the Palace but no one came.

After asking, I found out that he was tripped by his boss and couldn't get away for a while.

It's rare to see people today.

Chen Mian usually had the most leisure time. He and Lin Zhao would have dinner together every now and then. When he saw Yang Su coming over today, he pretended not to be happy and said, "Brother Yang, you are going too far. I haven't seen you for a long time. Not to mention taking the initiative to ask us out for a meal, and you are still late today. You are really busy now, and you don’t rarely see us! Today you have to punish yourself three times, and make amends to me and my third brother."

Such a casual and familiar tone made Yang Su feel funny when he heard it. This second brother is still the same as when he was studying, he loves to joke.

He smiled and said: "It's all my fault, the Criminal Department is really too busy. And I don't know what's going on, the servant of the Criminal Department doesn't seem to be very satisfied with me, and always finds me a lot of extra work. See you all."

He picked up the wine glass and took a sip without hesitation, "I will punish myself for being late today."

Seeing that he knew the rules so well, Chen Mian didn't bother with him anymore, and the two of them started talking again.

Pushing the cup to change the cup, it has been more than half a year since the last time I became an official.

But I didn't dare to drink too much, and I had to go to court the next day, afraid that I wouldn't be able to get up.

During the banquet, Chen Mian drank a little too much. He was a low-level official and didn't have to go to court early. He asked with a big mouth, "Brother Yang, when are you and Luo Niang going to get married? I've been waiting for a wedding for a long time!"

Yang Su took the wine glass in his hand aside and poured him a glass of water, "Come on, I just picked up my mother recently, and when she settles down, Luo Niang and I will get married on a fixed date."

Chen Mian said: "That's great, I envy you so much, lovers get married, and I don't know where my future wife is now."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Zhao, put his hand on his shoulder, then smiled, and said, "It's okay, though, look at the handsome appearance of the third younger brother, he is still the number one scholar, and he has no family yet. I'm not in a hurry."

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhao gently brushed off the hands on his shoulders, and said solemnly and with a bit of flaunting: "I'm sorry, I already have a family."

Sitting up in shock while dying drunk, it probably refers to Chen Mian's current state.

Originally, his body softened into a puddle of mud, but when he heard Lin Zhao suddenly say that he had a family, he straightened up from his seat in shock.

"Really?" he asked, before slumping back on the table.

"real."

Chen Mian regained his energy, and the sudden excitement drove away the brain paralysis caused by alcohol, and asked with great interest: "Who, exactly who captured the heart of our Xinke champion!"

Yang Su also looked at Lin Zhao, waiting for his answer. He was also very curious and wanted to know who this person was.

"You know each other."

"We know each other?" It was rare for Chen Mian and Yang Su to react so unanimously, and they both spoke in unison.

"It's Ziyan."

Lin Zhao's words were short, but each sentence contained a huge amount of information, which made Chen Mian and Yang Su really startled when they heard that it was Jiang Ziyan.

"You, you, so, third brother, you have always liked men?" Chen Mian tremblingly hugged his arms as he asked, as if he was afraid that Lin Zhao would suddenly fall in love with him.

His exaggerated performance made Lin Zhao directly take a picture, "Okay, stop acting. I don't like men, but I like him. He just happens to be a man. It has nothing to do with gender. I like him. this person."

Seeing that his poor acting skills were seen through, Chen Mian had no interest in it, and said, "It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman. Now that the Great Wei Nanfeng is prevailing, third brother, you are nothing."

However, Lin Zhao didn't feel that he was special. Even though the Great Wei Nanfeng was not prevalent, he still liked him, just liked him.

Yang Su couldn't help admiring, "The third brother can speak out about his love for Feng so frankly, and he is not afraid of the world's eyes. Compared with you, I am still much worse than you. I have never dared to say it in front of others. Speaking of Luo Niang, I’m afraid that others will laugh at me if they find out. Now that I think about it, I just don’t have your courage to take responsibility.”

"Brother Yang has won the prize."

Chen Mian interrupted suddenly, "Then when we see brother Ziyan, don't we want to call him brother and sister?"

"Siblings, you can call them whatever you want." Lin Zhao's ears turned red when he said this.

……

The three of them drank another jug, and when Jiang Ziyan heard the news, they all fell down.
