After Hu Pi left, Li Chen put down the bowls and chopsticks, but Gong Huiyu on the opposite side had little appetite and had already eaten.

It can be seen that Gong Huiyu is in a pretty good mood, and even half of the bowl of soup that Li Chen handed her.

Li Chen suddenly wanted to explore Gong Huiyu's political talent, and he asked without warning: "Actually, I can't say so much to him, but do you know why I want to say those things?"

Gong Huiyu thought for a moment and said, "Let me borrow his ears and mouth and tell them to more people?"

Li Chen smiled.

He can now be sure that the White Lotus Sect’s previous series of extraordinary means and responses were definitely the shadow of Gong Huiyu’s participation.

It takes time to examine the political talent in the end, but at least, this woman's intelligence is second only to Su Jinpa.

"Hu Pi, that is, the Minister of Personnel you just saw, is the product of the struggle and compromise between the Eastern Palace and the Cabinet. The importance of the Ministry of Personnel does not need to be said much by the Palace. Therefore, this department, the Eastern Palace and the Cabinet, both want to control it in their own hands, but it is obviously impossible for the other party to agree."

"So the best way is to compromise to give Hu Pi a veteran who is about to retire and retire, and it is impossible to have any political ambitions."

"The cabinet does not want the palace examination to be held."

"Because once the top scorer, second-place, Tanhua, and even those Jinshi are all fresh blood from the court. Since it is fresh blood, it is impossible to arrange them in various positions with the label of their cabinet, and what is squeezed is the position and living space of the people in the cabinet."

"But the problem is that in this matter, Hu Pi is standing on this side of the palace."

"A man who is about to retire is about to retire. His only thought is to leave his name in the court in the world. For the Minister of Personnel, the grand test every three years is their best opportunity to obtain disciples, political resources and benefits."

"Hu Pi may not need political resources or money, but he needs his disciples to take care of his descendants, and even more so he needs reputation to allow him to spend the remaining time safely."

Li Chen tapped his fingers on the table and said, "So this palace examination is the beginning of the cabinet root system in the court."

Gong Huiyu frowned and asked, "Why do you want to tell me this?"

"Just chat."

Li Chen stood up and said lazily: "It's very uncomfortable to hold a lot of things in your stomach. If someone can say something, it's considered venting."

Gong Huiyu was silent.

Until Li Chen walked back to the table and was about to start busy, he suddenly saw Gong Huiyu pointing to the huge bookshelf on both sides of Xizheng Hall and saying, "Can I read the books here?"

Wan Jiao next to her was so angry.

These books were her exclusive before.

The prince only allows himself to see it!

Is this vixen really starting to get involved in his own privileges?

With hopeful eyes, Wan Jiaojiao looked at Li Chen, and she felt that the prince would definitely reject this vixen sternly.

As a result, Li Chen didn't raise his head.

"Look at it casually."

These four words made Wan Jiaojiao's heart break.

"Jiaojiao, what do she want to see? Go and find her."

Li Chen's next sentence made Wan Jiaojiao feel very aggrieved.

"oh."
