Chapter 39: Destroying Prince Zhenbeihou
Zuo Pingdao glanced at him and secretly thought that he knew nothing about it, so he took it clean. As the minister of Dali Temple, he had investigated countless cases and met countless people, including many old and cunning ones.
The perpetrators of crimes still pretended to be honest and ignorant in front of him, trying to hide the truth from the truth. Zuo Pingdao's eyes could identify countless criminals.
At this moment, he couldn't see through Qin Feng in front of him.
This handsome and weak-looking Second Young Master Qin is unfathomable. He has a delicate heart and is soft when he should be soft. He also has his own aura when he should be strong. He has already asked people to check all the people who participated in the selection. Qin Feng looks like
The most desolate.
Even Zhao Lun, despite being an orphan, had reached the rank of fourth-rank official, but it was the person he looked down upon the most before, who trampled them under his feet time and time again, and was praised by the Holy Master himself time and time again!
"Tsk, tsk, I don't know anything about the six departments, but in my opinion, the most suitable one for you is the household department." Guo Shitong continued to speak unabashedly: "Land tax, tariffs, etc. are all among them."
Qin Feng secretly wondered that although Guo Shitong said it casually, he really got to the point. If he wanted to choose the Six Ministries, it was really possible to choose the Household Department. In modern times, the Household Department was the combination of the Civil Affairs Bureau and the Ministry of Finance.
Population and household registration and finance are both under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs, a department that unifies both human resources and finance.
Qin Feng likes financial management and is very keen on money. If he were not a doctor, his biggest wish would be to do business. It was only after he came to this dynasty that he found that the management here was still old-fashioned, so he came up with the idea of doing business.
"Oh, that sounds really annoying. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear this award." Qin Feng had already made up his mind and said vaguely: "General Guo Shen wants to join the Ministry of War. There are only two rounds left to charge at will. What's the point?"
There is a chance.”
Guo Shitong talked for a long time and then brought it back to himself, saying with a sad expression: "If it's a fight, I'm done."
Zuo Pingdao and others laughed, and the atmosphere at the banquet became much more relaxed, and the tense atmosphere seemed to have disappeared.
Zhao Lun looked coldly at the people who had their own evil intentions. He held the wine glass and drank the March Red in one gulp. Emperor Yuan's favorite wine was mellow, with endless aftertaste and a hint of sweetness. A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
, suddenly looked towards the high wall.
In the imperial study room, a man dressed as a bodyguard was kneeling in front of Emperor Yuan. Eunuch Hong tied his hands in front of him and watched Emperor Yuan read every word and every sentence presented back to him. These were the sentences used by the consorts when they were chatting.
.
"This beloved son of General Guo is more than straightforward, but not calm enough. On the contrary, this Qin Feng is a little presumptuous. However, he is originally a white man. If he really wants to be a consort and enter one of the six departments to become a third-level official, I'm afraid
It’s hard to convince the public.”
When Eunuch Hong heard this, he quickly arched his back deeper. Listening to His Majesty's words, it seemed that he favored Qin Feng as the consort? He had obviously criticized this candidate for being the consort before, but he could not help but beg Princess Jinhua's plea.
.
Now Emperor Yuan seems to be planning for the Second Young Master of Qin, but there are still two rounds of selections ahead, so if he really wants to replace him, it is not impossible.
Eunuch Hong had been serving Emperor Yuan since before he became the crown prince. At this time, he could not figure out Emperor Yuan's thoughts.
Emperor Yuan seemed to be very distressed. At this time, in the queen's bedroom, Xiao Lingyao was personally holding a cup of bird's nest porridge and feeding it into the queen's mouth one spoon at a time. The queen's real surname was Chen, Chen Wanrong, and she was a distant cousin to the Marquis of Zhenbei, Chen Tianxiao.
.
Three generations of the Chen family have hereditary titles. Unfortunately, in Chen Wanrong's generation, although his father had three wives and four concubines, he was destined to have no children. He could only find a child from the side branches to inherit his title. The one he chose was
Chen Tianxiao.
Later, Chen Wanrong was granted the title of Princess Jing. Later, Emperor Yuan became the crown prince, and she became the crown princess. The first emperor died, and Emperor Yuan ascended the throne. She became the head of the Six Palaces, with no glory. In order to avoid suspicion, the Chen family, Zhenbei Hou, went to the north.
He guarded Beiguan and rarely entered the capital.
Chen Ting, son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, was a candidate highly recommended by the Queen as the consort, but Xiao Lingyao used Qin Feng to overthrow him at the last moment, and he missed the last seat.
There were many speculations in Sui City about the candidate for the last seat, but no one thought about it from the Marquis of Zhenbei. After all, the Marquis of Zhenbei had not set foot in Sui City for many years, and no one thought that the Queen was trying to get the Chen family to enter Sui City again.
This plan was shattered by Xiao Lingyao's own hands. Chen Wanrong stared at Xiao Lingyao's beautiful face, especially the mole under his eyes that was almost undetectable without looking carefully. A trace of disgust slipped through his eyes, but he said softly: "Yao'er, that's enough.
"
With a smile on her lips, Xiao Lingyao tenderly handed the bowl to the eldest maid on the side: "I'm sorry to trouble you, aunt."
The palace maid had been with Chen Wanrong since before she left the palace. When Chen Wanrong became the queen, she became her most trusted person. Her name was Qiong'an, and everyone in the palace called her Aunt Qiong'an.
"It is indeed the Queen's fortune that Your Highness has such filial piety." Aunt Qiong'an took the bowl and said with a smile: "It was just the time when Your Highness was selecting your consort, but Your Majesty was unwell and could not go in person. Your Highness must not blame Your Majesty."
Cao Jinghou was standing aside. Hearing this wording, he raised his eyes slightly.
"How dare I blame the queen?" Xiao Lingyao said softly: "The queen's health is important."
As soon as the mother-daughter love code was played, Xiao Lingyao said goodbye and left. After walking out for a long time, two figures flashed behind her. She twitched the corners of her lips and said indifferently: "I really don't know whether to live or die."
That woman clearly hates her to the extreme, but she can also show concern. She is worthy of being the person who can firmly sit at the head of the Sixth Palace. Emperor Yuan has had many concubines over the years, but no one can shake her position as queen. They are all a group of incompetent people.
Competitive.
"They should have discovered that the little palace maid responsible for poisoning has disappeared," Cao Jing said, "Your Highness must leave the palace as soon as possible."
No matter how long the queen's hands are, she must be restrained if she wants to do whatever she wants outside the palace. The Marquis of Zhenbei she can rely on is far in the north and beyond the reach of her whip, so she can only do whatever she wants in the palace. This time, Xiao Lingyao ordered the death of the little palace maid after poisoning her.
, just to give the queen a warning.
But continuing like this is not a long-term solution. Xiao Lingyao stopped and said thoughtfully: "There are still two rounds of selection left?"
Cao Jing was silent, as long as Xiao Lingyao asked such a question, he was just thinking...
Although Qin Feng knew that there was an undercurrent in the palace and there was never peace, he didn't know that Xiao Lingyao was impatient, and he didn't know that her life was in danger several times. After drinking March Red, he took a bath under Feng Bao's care, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs
He also sent someone to bring him new clothes.
This was a new batch cut according to their body shapes. The material used this time was different from the previous one. Feng Bao stretched out his fingers and pinched them. The material slipped through his fingers. He was shocked and said: "Master,
The material is too soft and slippery."
The House of Internal Affairs also prepared clothes for the servants, using materials commonly used by the palace's father-in-law. Even so, they were much better than the clothes of the servants in the Taifu's house. Feng Bao smacked his tongue and said: "What kind of material is this?"
