After Lin Fu left, Gu Beichuan became sad again.

There is a saying that the Imperial City Division is worthy of being known as the spy agency of the emperor.

At least in Gandu, which is three-quarters of an acre, one can definitely say that one’s hands and eyes are all-powerful. As long as one wants to investigate, there is nothing that cannot be found out.

Li Dongbi went around the world, tried his best to save the reputation of Yaowang Palace, but could not find out the ugly Yinmao.

Landing in the Imperial City Division was nothing more than a matter of time.

However, although Lin Fu found out the origin of the Opera House, he even gave a solution to the crisis.

But...it's not easy to be an official.

Thirty years ago, during the reign of the late Emperor, it was still possible to sell one's official position and win titles.

But now it’s thirty years later!

Emperor Renxuan unified the Qianlong dynasty, purified the world, and brought peace to the world.

The imperial court already had a complete set of measures on how to select talents as officials.

If you follow this set of measures and procedures like Shen Liangfu and others, then nothing will be a problem.

No matter how bitterly cold the place you go is, you are still a legitimate official. Only the emperor can remove you from your post!

But if you get the official position by selling your official position, it would be better if you are not discovered. If you are discovered, haha.

At least one person's head will fall to the ground, or even the roots will be uprooted, implicating many people.

If the official position purchased was larger and the circumstances were more serious, it would not be impossible to punish the Nine Tribes!

As for children from poor families with no background, if they want to become an official, the most important and famous way is to take the imperial examination!

But...it's almost midsummer now, and spring has just passed.

Gu Beichuan can wait for next year. He is still young and has a lot of time.

But the assassins in Xilinglou obviously wouldn't give him the chance to wait!

Let alone next year, I'm afraid they will come to your door next month.

So, what should I do?

Gu Beichuan frowned. After thinking about it, he could only lament: "As a white person, I naturally can't do anything about this kind of thing."

"For the current plan, we can only seek advice from people in the officialdom."

"Although Marquis Fengche does not have an official position, he is still a top noble and deeply favored by the saints. He should have some ideas, and he doesn't look like someone who refuses to repay his kindness."

"After a while, when he gets better, you can pay him a visit."

…

Inside the palace.

Harem.

Pure Heart Garden.

A graceful woman who looked no more than thirty years old was sipping tea and admiring flowers in the courtyard.

The courtyard is one of the large and small flower courtyards in Shenghuiyuan and Jingxinyuan.

There are cymbidiums of different sizes and colors growing among them.

Raw rhubarb, also known as purple cockscomb, is mainly divided into pink and purple, and is accompanied by bursts of fragrance.

In Daqian, it is an extremely rare ornamental flower.

What's even more rare is that this flower only blooms in midsummer.

As for the Shenghui Courtyard, as far as the eye can see, there are all very vigorously growing Shenghui flowers. It is not difficult to find them. There must be many people taking good care of them on weekdays.

In addition to the Shenghui Garden, there are many similar flower gardens in the Jingxin Garden, in which a variety of midsummer flowers grow.

Such as roses, wisteria, coreopsis, and calla lilies.

On weekdays, there are dozens and nearly hundreds of maids in charge of the palace.

And all of this was just to bring some fun to that graceful woman.

In this case, the identity of the graceful woman is also ready to be revealed.

The owners of Jingxinyuan——Yang Guifei, Yang Luxin.

Concubine Yang only has two hobbies in her daily life, flower viewing and tea tasting.

When it comes to flower appreciation, we have just discussed it.

And this tea is also very particular.

Concubine Yang only drinks three kinds of tea: Longjing green, pearl white, and general red!

What is Longjing Green?

It is said that at the highest point of the Yayu Mountains, there is a pond, also called Tianquan.

The Yayu Mountains are thousands of meters high and are covered with snow all year round.

Only this Tianchi is warm, and it even changes the surrounding temperature, which is really a wonderful act of good fortune.

The small area around Tianchi is not only suitable for plants to survive, but also grows very well.

As long as you sow seeds or plant seedlings here, the plants that grow will be far superior to normal areas in terms of growth rate and quality.

If Tianchi water is used for irrigation, it will be even more amazing.

In just a few dozen days, the plant can grow for several years.

Longjing green is the green tea grown in the area around Tianchi.

You know, the Tianquan Longjing here is a fine Longjing that is irrigated with Tianchi water all day long!

This is not the case in the past in Yuzhang County. The ones Lin Changgong brought out were just inferior dragon wells planted on the edge of Tianchi.

Even though they are both Tianquan Longjing, the prices of the two are still as different as clouds and mud, and they cannot be compared.

As for pearl white, also known as pearl pekoe tea, it is a tribute tea from the royal family of Nanliang. It is famous for its white tender tea leaves and noble aroma. Not many of them have spread to Daqian.

But with Concubine Yang, there was never any shortage, and she drank as much as she wanted.

General Hong also has a great background!

It even has something to do with the military god Rentu in Xiqi.

It is said that when Rentu Ancestor led the troops to go on an expedition, he was plotted against by the Northern Yuan cavalry. After a deadly battle, he was covered in blood and died together with the enemy general.

The area stained with so much blood seemed to have absorbed sufficient nutrients and became extremely fertile.

There were also tea merchants who came and planted tea trees and took good care of them.

A few years later, a strange red tea tree grew. Once the tea leaves on the red tea tree were watered with hot water, a deep and rich tea aroma would waft out, and the taste would be even more noble.

After hearing this, Rentu even came here specially to erect a monument for his ancestors in front of the tea mountain.

Because people were slaughtered in scarlet cloaks on that day, the world also called this tea "Jianghong Red"! It comes from the meaning of "generals wearing red robes".

There is a saying, compared with the flowers in the garden.

The tea that Concubine Yang drank was even more precious!

It’s even priceless!

Not to mention an ordinary family, even a wealthy and noble family would not be able to hope for one of them, but Yang Guifei can exclusively possess three of them.

Why is she so favored?

Just because of her two unique identities.

One: the biological mother of the second prince Xiang Longyuan!

Second: the biological sister of Duke Yang Luchan of the Warring States Period!

What is the identity of the second prince Xiang Longyuan?

Before his birth, the position of crown prince had been firmly occupied by the eldest prince Xiang Baichuan.

But since his birth and emergence, the eldest prince Xiang Baichuan's position as crown prince has been impacted.

There were even vague voices saying inside and outside the palace, up and down the court, that Emperor Renxuan wanted to re-establish the crown prince!

Why?

Because Xiang Longyuan was good at riding and shooting, was familiar with military books, and had a good idea of ​​strategies. He also practiced with the King of Zhenbei for a long time and participated in many actual battles.

As a prince, he went through life and death and made various achievements.

If he can be honored in the grand ceremony, he will definitely inherit the last wish of Emperor Renxuan, regain the great cause of the Northern Expedition, and become a generation of Emperor Wu who opened up new territories!

And the Duke of the Warring States Period, Yang Luchan, was even more remarkable.
Chapter completed!
