Chapter 415: Tan Xiangs Recruitment

After Song Mu came out of Feng's house, he felt a little heavy.

Although there was always a voice in his heart that comforted him that he should not bear the blame alone, Song Mu would soon think that these people were all living beings.

Even if you don't feel guilty, you should still have the righteousness that a literati should have. These monsters are so rampant just because they have touched a certain kind of luck. It can be said to be extremely rampant.

After thinking for a moment, Song Mu shook all these random thoughts out of his head and recognized only one thing clearly.

Since these things have happened now, there is no need for me to worry about the reasons anymore.

Instead of doing this, it is better to make your own efforts next time and make the monster pay the price it deserves.

The force that stops oneself is obviously luck.

Since it was this thing that frightened the demon, I might as well just stop doing it.

Since demons do such things for the sake of luck, I must have touched their deep-seated interests.

This time, I have the strength of a Jinshi, so I can compete with the obstacle to luck, and I will definitely turn it upside down.

One day, we should kill all the monsters in this world.

Song Mu thought like this and strode outside. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and headed towards Tan Xiang's mansion on the other side.

You'd better pay a visit yourself.

Arriving in front of Prime Minister Tan's residence, Song Mu also encountered the same scene as in front of Prime Minister Feng's residence, but this time Song Mu was not invited in by the concierge, but was led in by Tan Wei.

"It's unfortunate that Brother Song is here. My father is discussing things with some adults, but we can have lunch together and have a few words with my father."

Song Mu was immediately shocked when he heard this, and was about to decline, when Tan Weiyi said with a smile.

"Brother Song, you don't have to be like this. This is actually my father's wish, so Brother Song, please stay."

Seeing this, Song Mu was a little curious as to how Tan Xiang noticed him and wanted to entertain him, so he nodded in agreement.

Not long after, Song Mu followed Tan Wei to a study room in the house. At this moment, a boy was carrying a desk in the house. Song Mu also followed in and saw the man sitting behind the desk in the study.

A tall man drinking tea.

"Song Mu was born late and met Tan Xiang."

Song Mu immediately raised his hands in salute, and the other party also raised his head. With a slender and upright face, when he saw Song Mu bowing with his hands in hand, he immediately stood up and said to Song Mu.

"It turns out that Song Huiyuan is here, so there is no need to be polite."

Tan Zhongye is very enthusiastic, but he may be stern on weekdays, but the look on his face is still a bit cold.

Song Mu also nodded immediately. At this moment, three desks were placed in the study room, and the three of them sat down one after another.

The food on the table was not very sumptuous, it could even be said to be mostly light. When Tan Zhongye saw Song Mu arriving, he asked for a cup of wine and filled it with Song Mu.

Originally he was silent about eating and sleeping, but Tan Xiang seemed to be very busy. At this moment, he only had a moment of leisure, eating lunch and talking to Song Mu in a deep voice.

"Song Huiyuan, I heard that you are married?"

Song Mu didn't expect that Xiang Tan would open the topic with such a question. He was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly.

"I am acquainted with the daughter of Mr. Gu, the Nanjing water transport envoy, and Magistrate Gu helped to match her, so..."

Tan Zhongye just nodded and said with a smile.

"I also know the Gu family. Gu Shifan and his father Gu Chengxiu are both people who work hard to govern and will be of great use in the future."

With that said, Tan Zhongye looked at Song Mu again and said with a smile.

"Of course the same is true for Song Huiyuan. At such a young age, he has become the Huizhen Huiyuan, and his future will be bright."

Song Mu straightened his back quickly, but Tan Zhongye waved his hands repeatedly and said calmly.

"Don't be so restrained in my house. I have heard about the article and poem you wrote in the examination. I will say something wonderful after reading the article and poem."

Tan Weiyi next to him also smiled and said.

"What my father said is absolutely true. Brother Song is amazingly talented. His articles and poems are nothing short of amazing. We, the students, are all in a state of disbelief."

Tan Zhongye also nodded slightly and warned Tan Wei.

"Then you must remember to follow Song Huiyuan as an example."

Song Mu repeatedly raised his hands with a look of embarrassment on his face, and then Tan Zhongye said to Song Mu.

"Not to mention this, I am also very happy that you came to the house today. I want to have a chat with you, but I want to ask you what you think after that."

Song Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. This was finally back to the topic. Song Mu immediately answered with a smile.

"I wonder what you think after hearing this..."

Tan Zhongye smiled slightly and said directly to Song Mu seriously.

"Song Huiyuan, I can't deny your ability. However, since you have great power and your future is unlimited, why not join me and contribute more to the Wen Dynasty."

"If you don't want to join the Imperial Academy, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, or the Ministry of Officials, I can still say a few words."

Song Mu originally participated in the imperial examination, which meant that he wanted to serve the Wen Dynasty. What Tan Zhongye meant by saying this was that he wanted Song Mu to take sides.

Song Mu swallowed silently at that moment. He didn't expect that Tan Xiang would speak so straightforwardly, and he was a little stunned for a moment.

Immediately, Song Mu raised his hands towards Tan Xiang and said immediately.

"Song Mu must have worked hard to pass the palace examination and serve the Wen Dynasty. If he regrets not being able to enter the Hanlin Academy, he will have to worry about Prime Minister Tan later."

Hearing Song Mu's words, Tan Zhongye frowned slightly, but Song Mu's meaning this time was also obvious, that is, he did not want to make a choice immediately.

Tan Zhongye had some other ideas about this. The reason why he could not wait to say these words was full of solicitation. One was because of Song Mu's talent, and the other was because Huangfu Fengming was also from the Ministry of War.

It also had an impact on Song Mu.

This time I thought I was sure of it, at least I could beat Feng Qi first.

Tan Zhongye didn't know what Song Mu was thinking, so he immediately frowned and asked other questions.

It just lacked a bit of cordiality. After finishing the meal, Song Mu took his leave at the right time.

Outside the door of Tan's house, Tan Wei held his hand towards Song Mu with a smile on his face.

"Don't be surprised, Hui Yuan, my father is such a hot-tempered person who wants to make a decision when he sees a good talent."

"But I think Hui Yuan should go one step further. When the time comes, he can show off his talents in the palace examination and become a loyal minister like my father."

Saying this, Song Mu also repeatedly handed over his hands.

But when walking towards the guild hall, Song Mu had some calculations in his mind.

It seems that the Wen Dynasty is now in discord with the government. Although I have taken a step forward, I can't stand alone.

But now it seems that it is better to pass this palace test first.

After that, it doesn’t matter if there is discord in the government, there will be demons and troubles in the future, and you should go back to the fields.
