Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 229 Fang Xiaoru’s surprise

Chapter 229 Fang Xiaoru’s surprise

In fact, it is normal for Luo Guanzhong and Fang Xiaoru to have a good impression or even admiration for Mr. Hu.

However, there are some differences inside.

As for Luo Guanzhong, Mr. Hu had his master Shi Naian's "Water Margin" published in one fell swoop.

Nowadays, "Water Margin" is no longer the pile of manuscripts at the bottom of the box.

Other parts of the Ming Dynasty may not be so fast.

But in fact, in the entire Yingtian Mansion, who knows the name of "Water Margin"?

And this all stems from Mr. Hu’s nod of agreement at the very beginning.

According to Luo Guanzhong, ordinary literati ignore things like scripts.

Mr. Hu was able to give his master a chance to publish and also gave himself an upright job. This is a great kindness.

Not to mention, with the continuous printing and sales of Ming Weekly.

It can be said that in the future, the famous name of "Water Margin" will definitely leave its name in history and be famous throughout the ages.

It’s just that I didn’t have the ability or channels before.

Now that I have this ability, I can thank Mr. Hu, but I never thought that this old man would resign without mercy.

This made him want to express his gratitude, but he couldn't find the opportunity.

He did know the address of Hu Mansion.

But he knew better that the Hu Mansion was not accessible to ordinary people.

Not to mention a little Karami like him, how many high-ranking officials in his eyes still post a post and wait for Master Hu to summon them?

Shutting down the Hu Mansion is not a joke or a show, it is really the kind of thing that no one will pay attention to.

Especially now that he is a relative of the emperor, the threshold for the Hu family is even higher.

Luo Guanzhong heard that in recent times, except for His Highness the Crown Prince who opened the door when he returned with the Crown Princess, he had not received any foreign visitors.

Luo Guanzhong would not think that a little Kalami like himself could be treated the same as His Highness the Crown Prince.

Therefore, now that Mr. Hu is inspecting the newspaper office, that is his best opportunity.

In the future... I don’t know when.

After all, Mr. Hu not only doesn't receive guests, he also rarely goes out.

Regardless of whether it was a poetry or literary gathering where literati gathered, or a dinner party or party held by dignitaries, Mr. Hu was basically nowhere to be seen.

Occasionally when Mr. Hu goes out, he will most likely get in a carriage and go straight to the palace.

How can ordinary human beings tolerate this kind of behavior of a dragon that sees its beginning but not its end?

Different from Luo Guanzhong's longing, Fang Xiaoru was more curious.

He is so curious!

For him, his perception of Mr. Hu is very complicated.

After all, it was this great master who caused his previously confident imperial examination to suffer setbacks.

Even though the scientific examination has passed now, in fact, whenever he thinks of the scene of reading the examination papers with the door closed in the Gongyuan, Fang Xiaoru still wakes up from nightmares.

The feeling of being helpless and in a dilemma that day was really too torture and suffering.

It's really a feeling that makes you want to die, but you have to bow your head.

And the person who did such an immoral thing happened to be Mr. Hu, the former prime minister.

Although Fang Xiaoru was a little dull, he was not stupid.

He clearly knew how many people Master Hu had offended with his actions! You know, the imperial examination has never been a matter for students alone!

Behind this are also involved the student's family, clan, division and even local officials.

Therefore, the examiner of the imperial examination has always been a good job, a good job who can make friends with many new students, officials, and even the family behind him.

As a result, Mr. Hu just flew against the wind.

Turning a good errand of friendship into an errand of offending others!

If Mr. Hu is some kind of Hanlin nerd who doesn't hear anything outside the window, maybe it's possible!

But how could Mr. Hu, a dignified former prime minister who had been in the officialdom for more than 20 years, overcome all obstacles and join forces to reach the top of the civil service, not know the rules here?

Since you already knew it, you still do it.

Then there is only one explanation here, Mr. Hu did it on purpose.

Fang Xiaoru has actually heard the rumors about Mr. Hu’s reasons for recruiting talents for the country and strictly selecting them.

And it does sound quite normal.

But Fang Xiaoru always felt that there should be something behind this.

This was what he was most curious about before.

The next thing that made him curious was the Daming Weekly newspaper in front of him.

If we say that the previous imperial examination incident more or less brought a lot of infamy to Mr. Hu.

Then this Daming Weekly really amazed everyone.

How many people are following the Ming Dynasty Weekly at the moment, there are twice as many people who occasionally lament the greatness of Mr. Hu.

After all, Ming Weekly was created by Mr. Hu from beginning to end.

Rules and regulations, personnel, processes, content, layout, sales...

The more I get into this and understand this thing, the more I think, how on earth did Mr. Hu become so awesome?

It really makes people think that there are too many details and skills here.

So how did Mr. Hu do it and build a yamen out of thin air?

The key is, in such a process that is supposed to be like a blind man trying to grasp an elephant, not even a single mistake was made!

How amazing this is!

How could Fang Xiaoru not be curious about this?

It is a pity that he missed the time when Mr. Hu was in office.

When he came in, Mr. Hu had already resigned!

Now that he finally had the opportunity, he certainly didn't want to let it go.

He had too many questions that he wanted to ask Mr. Hu personally.

Two days later in the morning, Mr. Hu Shiran woke up from the gentle village and looked at the jade arms entwined and the jade body lying on the bed.

Master Hu smiled!

The two sisters Guihua and Guizhi joined forces, but they were still no match for the system's cheating.

Even though the two little girls have learned more knowledge and created more tricks, after all, their foundation is not strong enough for Mr. Hu.

No, he fell down again!

There is no way, the system's blessing ability is too strong, it's just so powerful.

Mr. Hu raised his eyebrows proudly. After washing up and having a simple breakfast, Shi Shiran got on Hu's carriage and headed to the newspaper office.

At the entrance of the newspaper office, editor-in-chief Li Jianlin and his people were waiting here early.

However, this wait lasted for most of an hour.

Even though they knew that it was actually past the time to go to the Yamen, no one, whether it was Li Jianlin or other officials, dared to complain.

Not long after, with the crisp sound of horse hooves, an inconspicuous and not gorgeous carriage stopped safely in front of the newspaper office.

Fang Xiaoru, who also came out to greet him, was stunned when he saw the figure who had just gotten out of the car opposite.

Damn it, I know this guy!
