As the first female official around Xiao Lingyao, Bai Qian wanted to set an example for Da Kun's women, so she also signed up to participate. She must know that there is an essential difference between the female officials in the palace and the female officials in the court.

She is now Xiao Lingyao's deputy, helping Xiao Lingyao. Once selected in the national examination, she can join the Sixth Department and hold a formal official position. Facing the real test of officialdom, Bai Qian can't sleep well these days and has been preparing carefully.

As for the test questions of the national examination, in order to avoid suspicion, Qin Feng only gave guidance, and the Ministry of Personnel was responsible for handling the details, and the test questions were sealed and kept confidential.

In other words, even the emperor and empress did not know the test questions. If there was any leakage, the officials would come to see them.

The reason why it took so long for the founding dynasty to officially launch the national examination was because it was necessary to prepare the materials for the national examination. This alone took more than a year to prepare. From a practical point of view, many adjustments were made to make the teaching materials more comprehensive and practical.

.

It was put on the market after the joint review of six ministers, and with a wave of Qin Feng's hand, the national examination materials were sold at cost price, which really did not make any difference to the candidates. The cost was open and transparent, which won the applause of the people.

As a special candidate, Bai Qian had to help Xiao Lingyao take care of the palace affairs and prepare for her own national exam. She was so tired that she had dark circles under her eyes. Today, Xiao Lingyao gave her a cream, saying it could remove the dark circles.

It hasn’t been used yet.

Jing Wuming looked at the dark blue under Bai Qian's eyes and couldn't help but feel distressed: "How do you think you got into such a mess, are you really planning to become a high official?"

Bai Qian didn't hear the slightest bit of sarcasm. The man's voice trembled. She was also made of flesh and blood, and she knew what was good. Her eyes turned red for a moment, and her tone finally became more coquettish: "I don't want to just be trapped in this world either."

In the palace, the empress supports me."

Xiao Lingyao not only gave verbal support, but also selected several palace maids early to train as female officials to succeed her.

This look is promising for her to stand out smoothly.

Jing Wuming thought for a moment and took out something from his arms: "Keep this."

"What's this?"

"You forgot, in Sui City, our Majesty sold the cooling oil during the scientific examination, which made a lot of money at that time." Jing Wuming curled his lips and said: "Look how sleepy you are, this thing can refresh your mind.

.”

In fact, Bai Qian already had it, but when she took the cooling oil that was the temperature of Jing Wuming's palm, her heart felt warm.

She has noticed his behavior recently. This guy is not as careless as before. He seems to have matured a lot. He was promoted to a level recently. Qin Feng said that Jing Wuming is a straight man, but she doesn't understand.

, I asked about it carefully and found it quite consistent.

But recently, Jing Wuming suddenly seemed to have an enlightenment. She knew how to be measured and considerate, which made her heart really warm.

Now holding the cooling oil, I couldn't say any words of refusal, so I simply put it away: "Then I'll take it, thank you very much."

Jing Wuming grinned: "Then I'll leave."

Watching Jing Wuming leave, Bai Qian suddenly thought that if she passed the national examination and really went to work in the Sixth Ministry, she would never be able to get along with him like this in the palace, and her heart suddenly became astringent, like early autumn.

It doesn't have the biting taste of ripe fruit.

Bai Qian held the cooling oil and left, but she didn't know that behind her stood a pair of people who got up to eavesdrop on the gossip.

Xiao Lingyao got up because she was thirsty. Unexpectedly, the two of them were just chatting with each other outside. Seeing that she hadn't gone back for a long time, Qin Feng also followed her. The two of them looked at each other with amusement.

Bai Qian was surprised by Jing Wuming's change, but Xiao Lingyao hugged him with both hands and looked at Qin Feng with a smile: "Have you made money from him?"

"How can I, the majestic king of a country, bully a commander of the royal guards? His salary was paid to him by me." Qin Feng asked back: "He has been tossing himself for so long, what progress has he made? Look, now, Bai Qian is Isn’t there a big change in attitude?”

After all, Qin Feng just refused to admit that he sold Jing Wuming a girl-hunting manual, or that he wrote it randomly to deceive Jing Wuming. He asked Jing Wuming for twenty taels of silver. He had a dark heart!

Xiao Lingyao didn't argue with him. After reading this, he went back to the couch to rest. The two of them had no sleep all night. On the second night, Cao Jing came with the new information. After opening it and reading it, Qin Feng's fingers tapped on the On the table: "Shen Li was detained, what do you think? Save him or not?"

Cao Jing and Xiao Lingyao looked at each other. Shen Li had grown up with Xiao Lingyao since she was a child. When she was trapped in the harem, Shen Li also helped her in the dark. These few times she appeared in public, going to East Vietnam was the first time she took the leading role and even put herself in the spotlight. It was compensated.

Therefore, when Qin Feng said this, he was actually looking at his wife. Xiao Lingyao held the letter with her long, white fingers, and her eyes were full of melancholy: "Logically speaking, detaining an envoy is not a brilliant move. But what does he want to do when he is appointed as a special envoy?"

"The man not only made Shen Li the special envoy, but also gave him a house. It's not big, with three entrances and three exits. The location is subtle, not far from the princess's residence," Cao Jing said, "and he also gave him a house. A bunch of people use it."

"Where are the people who went with Shen Li? What happened?" Xiao Lingyao asked.

"Most of them have returned and are on their way back. In order to avoid exposing another passage from the southwest to Dakun, we will conservatively start from the southeast sea and return by the original sea route," Cao Jing said: "They are smart and will not take advantage of opportunities."

At this time, they were bound to be watched. If they wanted to take the southwest overland route quickly, Miasma Forest would not be able to hide it.

Although there are many trump cards, the fewer they can be kept from being exposed, the better.

"Where are the rest of the people?"

"The remaining people entered the house with Shen Li and stayed in Sui City temporarily. Master, they are being watched too closely at the moment. Our people can no longer contact them." Cao Jing said: "We can only wait and see what happens. In addition, the fourth prince is officially crowned prince."

Xiao Lingyu entered the East Palace, and the candidate for Prince Fu was decided. It was reasonable that Qin Feng's biological father Qin Zuohuai was not chosen. Emperor Yuan transferred him to the Royal Academy and demoted him several levels. The Qin family lost power.

It took so long for Qin Zuohuai to be dealt with. Many people said it was because of Qin Feng. The existence of Da Kun was now exposed and the people also heard about it. There is everything you can say about the grievances between the Weng son-in-law and there is no way to stop it. Silence the people's mouths.

The Song family was most proud of it. The prime minister's position was secure. Song Qingming was given an important position and had a son. The lady of the Song family also married the number one scholar. The Song family became more powerful than a tiger. As for the Bai family, they were condemned and demoted to commoners.

It was really surprising that few of the former Prince Consort's competitors ended up well. Qin Feng followed this line and thought of Zuoping Road, and said, "What's going on with Zuoping Road, and Yuan Buqi and Meng Tianqi."
