The sun was rising higher and higher, and the temperature was gradually getting hotter. The nominal sutra banquet in the Wenhua Hall and the actual Umrah gathering immediately broke up.
Although he didn't even finish the lecture, the minister, no matter how upright he was, did not give any advice on this matter.
If we don’t disband, we may suffer from heatstroke!
The focus figure Qin Dewei wants to disappear as soon as possible. It is really uncomfortable for so many ministers to stare at him and point at him.
Just as he walked out of the Meridian Gate, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Qin Dewei, stay!"
Not one person, but four or five people, all greeted Qin Dewei in unison after leaving the Meridian Gate.
Qin Dewei suddenly turned around and saw Wang Tingxiang, Gu Dingchen, Teacher Zhang, Fei Maoxian and others.
The scene was a bit awkward for a while, but finally Qin Dewei took it into consideration and left with Wang Tingxiang.
I will go to Teacher Zhang's house when it gets cooler in the evening, and I will go to the Hanlin Academy tomorrow to visit the room master Fei Maoxian.
"Today should be your first time entering the court. How do you feel?" Wang Tingxiang asked as he walked.
As an old-timer, he felt that he had the obligation to give guidance to Qin Dewei so that Qin Dewei could live longer in the court.
After all, his posthumous reputation as a great figure in retro-style literature has been entrusted to Qin Dewei!
Qin Dewei did not answer directly, but asked: "What do you think, Duke Junchuan? What did you do wrong?"
Wang Tingxiang was waiting for this opportunity, "I won't tell you if it's wrong, but you seem a bit out of the ordinary, not cautious enough, or you don't look like a newcomer at all.
Although Huo Tao attacked you first, as a newcomer, you fought back too arrogantly! In fact, your method should be gentler."
What Wang Tingxiang means is that if you are a newcomer who has just entered the circle, being too arrogant will cause collective discomfort among the elders.
Qin Dewei laughed and said: "Of course there are other special reasons for counterattacking Huo Tao. Mr. Junchuan had better not continue to inquire."
Wang Tingxiang asked with disbelief: "What other special reasons can you have? How dare I not listen?"
Qin Dewei said vaguely: "It's nothing special, it's just a test and verification at the same time."
Although Qin Dewei's meaning was unclear and his direction was even more unclear, Wang Tingxiang was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat in the middle of summer.
Who are you trying to test? Who are you trying to verify? The person on the throne? Isn't it to deliberately block your own mouth or scare others?
But Qin Dewei really wasn't trying to scare people, he really wanted to do experiments.
An analysis of the later information he has obtained shows that Emperor Jiajing never cared about it, and even encouraged and connived with low-level bureaucrats to attack high-ranking ministers.
But the premise is that Emperor Jiajing should not be misunderstood as criticizing Sang and Huai, or drag the emperor into the whirlpool of public opinion.
Today Qin Dewei's counterattack against Huo Tao is actually a test of Emperor Jiajing, in order to verify the information analyzed by later generations.
However, Qin Dewei would not say this directly, nor could he say it to Wang Tingxiang. At most, he would hint at his motives.
Although he had known Qin Dewei for several years, Wang Tingxiang was still shocked by Qin Dewei's suggestion.
It took a while to calm down, and he said with a complicated expression: "You, a newcomer, are really more arrogant than I expected."
If there was a new king selection in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Tingxiang originally voted for Yang Shen, but today he decided to vote for Qin Dewei.
I was originally impressed by Qin Dewei's poetic talent. In order to find a rising star for the retro school, I forced Qin Dewei to become a junior, but what kind of person did I find?
Originally, Wang Tingxiang wanted to show off as an old man and say a few wordy words about Qin Dewei, but now he did not dare to continue the discussion.
Then Wang Tingxiang gave up the advice and said his second purpose: "Don't resent Xia Guizhou. This kind of thing is normal, and his intention is not to make things difficult for you."
Qin Dewei seemed to be unconcerned and said: "It's understandable. Everyone has times when they have no choice but as long as they can bear the consequences."
It sounded like the "consequences" Qin Dewei was referring to were Xia Yan's failure to join the cabinet this time, but Wang Tingxiang still felt that there was something in his words.
Among the people in the court today, he, Wang Tingxiang, has known Qin Dewei for the longest time and understands him best.
What can I say about Qin Dewei? Even in his early days, he still had a sense of "control" over others.
When such a person has a good relationship model, he is Zhuge Liang; but if there is a problem with the relationship model, he is like Cao Cao.
Somehow, Wang Tingxiang remembered the words that someone commented on Cao Cao when he was a boy in the Three Kingdoms.
Wang Tingxiang has not understood this plot for many years. How could a young man get such comments?
But after getting to know Qin Dewei, he gradually understood that such people really existed in reality.
After separating from Wang Tingxiang, Qin Dewei hurried back home. Anyway, he didn't have to go to work before the inspection was over, so he didn't have to go to the Hanlin Academy.
Then he waited until dark before Qin Dewei took advantage of the slightly cooler night to go out and go to Teacher Zhang's house.
What Teacher Zhang wants to say to Qin Dewei is very simple: keep a low profile, keep a low profile, and keep a low profile!
"Teacher, please don't worry! How could I not understand this truth? I have always tried my best to keep a low profile." Qin Dewei assured him, patting his chest.
Teacher Zhang angrily scolded: "You are a low-key immortal! In the more than 100 years of imperial examinations in the Ming Dynasty, have there been newcomers who repeatedly manipulated the advancement and retreat of the cabinet's bachelors?
Seniority is valued everywhere, but as a newcomer, you are jumping up and down in the court, do you know that you can easily bore people?"
Qin Dewei was very unconvinced and said sternly: "Others came to me, what else can I do? Or teacher, how should I keep a low profile?"
Unexpectedly, Teacher Zhang was already prepared and directly made a three-part agreement: "Within half a year, you will do as I say.
First, if someone impeaches you or goes against you in the future, you are not allowed to fight back. I will make the judgment on your behalf!
Second, except for singing and singing, do not publish any more poems, and do not use poems to show off in public.
Third, if you officially go to the Hanlin Academy to perform your duties, you will report to me once a day, and you are not allowed to do anything without permission!"
Qin Dewei had no choice but to agree first. Nothing else, Teacher Zhang's status was too high for him.
Not only was he a dual master, Xu Miaoxuan also wanted to worship him as his adoptive father. He wanted to force him to do so, leaving no room for him to refuse.
After coming out of Teacher Zhang's house, Qin Dewei wiped his sweat in the hot night wind and went to Xu's house next door.
As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Xu Miaojing, shirtless, taking a shower with well water.
Qin Dewei sighed and said regretfully: "Don't your sister take a shower?"
Xu Miaojing turned away, not wanting to talk to Qin Dewei, and entered her room.
Qin Dewei shouted to Xu Miaoxuan's room: "Why is my little brother sick again!"
Xu Miaoxuan's voice came from inside the house: "He is annoyed with you."
Qin Dewei added: "It's too hot in the room, come out and talk."
Then he saw Xu Miaoxuan walking out in a sleeveless gown, holding a round fan in front of her, but it was not fully covered, and it still made Qin Dewei dizzy.
Xu Miaoxuan deliberately ignored Qin Dewei's eyes and said, "Did you promise to give me another maid as a gift?"
Qin Dewei suddenly realized that no wonder Little Brother Xu lost his temper again. He asked Xu Miaoxuan tentatively: "If it doesn't work, just give him one, and don't stop me."
Xu Miaoxuan sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, sighed and said: "My maid should give one as a gift, but the top priority now is to arrange a marriage, and let the younger brother get married first in the second half of the year."
Qin Dewei thought for a moment and understood what Xu Miaoxuan meant.
If Xu Miaoxuan were to marry him, Xu Miaoxuan would be left with a sixteen-year-old boy living alone in the Xu family. Xu Miaoxuan, as the eldest sister, would be worried.
Since the marriage has been postponed to the end of the year, Xu Miaoxuan thought of finding a marriage for Xu Xiaodi and getting it done before the end of the year.
In this case, Xu Xiaodi has someone to take care of him, and Xu Miaoxuan can safely marry into the Qin family.
Qin Dewei didn't know many people in the capital, so he could only be cautious and slowly look for suitable ones.
But Xu Miaojing's conditions were a bit too high and too low to meet, which made Qin Dewei worried.
