As a human being, one must never forget one's roots. This was a double entendre. Grandma and grandma of the Sheng family came over and stopped mentioning this issue.

After receiving the benefit, Shulan began to wonder which concubine could be treated like her.

Thinking back to the time when I was the eldest daughter of the Sun family, although this eldest daughter had a great reputation, she was still bullied by her mother-in-law and husband, and her life was miserable.

When she arrived at the Xie family, even though she was a concubine, the real wife, Zhao Pan'er, came from a criminal official family and had also entered a singing and dancing studio.

She has only one son. Although she is strict, she is really a kind-hearted person. She is kind to her like a sister. She also has a daughter by her side, so she has never been bullied.

In addition, Xie Yu continued to be promoted, and she also benefited a lot from her husband's status as a concubine.

Today, when she arrived at her second uncle's Sheng family, Shulan was originally a little worried, fearing that because of her status as a concubine, she would insult the Sheng family and be looked down upon by other cousins.

But the real situation is that none of the cousins ​​and sisters dare to look down on him. Even Chang Feng directly said that he was very envious of Xie Yu's prestige today.

I also regret that I did not have a good relationship with Xie Yu when we were studying together in the school. Otherwise, I would have been able to get a full-time official position through personal favors now.

Shulan took Chang Feng's joke and told him to study hard. This year's Enke class is a great opportunity.

She heard Xie Yu say that Chang Ke had just done it a year ago, and those who were capable would naturally have won the Jinshi.

In addition to the recent events in Beijing, many families are restricted from participating in this imperial examination. It can be said that this imperial examination is the easiest to pass in the past years.

Hearing Shulan say this, and understanding that these were Xie Yu's words, Chang Feng's motivation to study greatly increased.

Although there is a feeling that there are no tigers in the mountains and monkeys are kings, if you win, you will win. Entering an official career by being a Jinshi is completely different from entering an official career by being a Juren.

If you get Jinshi, you will have a chance to become a court official in the future if you are ranked poorly.

And if you enter the official career with the reputation of being a civil servant, you may have to be a low-ranking official for the rest of your life, and you will only be able to work on the two levels of the county government.

Moreover, since the Sheng family is a Qingliu family with heirlooms of poetry and calligraphy, even if Chang Feng had the opportunity to become an official with his current reputation as a civil servant, Sheng Hong probably would not let him go.

On weekdays, Chang Feng likes to make friends with the children of powerful people. Although he often says that he regards fame as nothing, as long as these friends are around, it is easy to find something to do. However, this is mostly to comfort others and himself.

.

Because of the presence of his brother Chang Bai, Chang Feng often studied hard and worked hard in private.

In fact, at his age, he is already quite knowledgeable, but because of Changbai's limelight, he is not very conspicuous.

Thinking of the difficulty of the previous subject, this time Enke is really a good opportunity. Chang Feng has no reason not to give it a try for himself.

After leaving Sheng's house, Xie Yu breathed a sigh of relief when Buwei nodded.

After sending Shulan and her daughter back to the mansion, they immediately changed into a carriage that had been prepared and rushed to the Duke of Qi's mansion.

Young Master Qi Heng is waiting impatiently for Xie Yu. After all, he is now a widower whose wife died just five months after getting married.

Although when I first married the head of Jiacheng County, it was to save my parents and to protect Minglan from harm, but...

In fact, Minglan still has her young father-in-law in her heart. No matter how sad her young father-in-law made Minglan before, especially after Minglan plotted to kill Lin Qinshuang for her unborn brother, Minglan actually felt even more sad because of her first love.

It's really hard to say.

There are many realities: I was hurt by my first love, and ended up marrying my spare child. After my first love reappeared, I ran away from my first love again for whatever reason.

Human beings are strange animals. They don’t cherish things when they have them, and they are very unwilling to lose them when they are lost.

Never for this side, after receiving Minglan's reluctant agreement, Qi Heng hesitated again.

First, he thought that he had not achieved any fame yet, so he thought that this year Enke would marry Minglan again.

Secondly, his mother, Princess Pingning, was greatly affected by King Yan's coup and became a little foolish. Now, would it be too much for him to marry Minglan...

In response to this, Xie Yu thought for a while and let Buwei go out first. When only the two of them were left, he said: "Young Master, it is convenient for you to plan for me. Now I will naturally repay you."

"Some words come from my mouth, but they are only said once and will not be acknowledged in the future."

"If you want to marry Minglan, now is the best time. Do you know that the Sheng family's grandmother has already planned to marry Minglan to He Hongwen, a medical officer from the He family."

"I know you are motivated and want to pass the Jinshi examination and marry Minglan to make her famous, but you must also consider her identity."

"It is now that the Duke of Qi's palace is a little lonely, so it is a good time to ask for Minglan's hand. If you really win the Jinshi, there will naturally be his legitimate daughter waiting for you, and Minglan will not be able to get married."

"Furthermore, the fact that King Yan's rebellion was able to be quickly quelled this time actually has a lot to do with Minglan."

Young Master Qi Heng: "It has something to do with Minglan, this..."

Xie Yu: "The matter in my heart is related to the family name festival of my daughter who has not yet left the court. It was not stated in the imperial memorial."

"Actually, the Holy Emperor wrote the Blood-clothed Edict that day, and King Yan's rebels had already entered the palace. At this time, Minglan happened to enter the palace to deliver some soup to my teacher."

"Only she was of short stature and could get out of a dog hole and go out to deliver orders. Fortunately, at that time, I followed the current prince to the capital to file a complaint, and I happened to meet him. God bless the Zhou Dynasty, so I was able to mobilize the army to quell the rebellion in the future."

"Now my teacher is the censor of Zuo Qiandu, who was promoted to the fourth rank because of his father's superiority and his daughter's superiority."

"If you tell Princess Pingning about this, Princess Pingning will definitely go to the Sheng family to propose marriage for you."

After Xie Yu's persuasion, young master Qi Heng decided to give it a try for the sake of Minglan.

Unexpectedly, Princess Pingning recovered immediately as soon as she told Minglan about the blood-clothed edict. However, after two days, she managed to collect herself and went to the Sheng family to propose marriage to Minglan for her young master.

As expected, what impresses people is the core interests.

Madam Wang just said a few words, but she saw Princess Pingning's weak look and strong fighting spirit, and thought of the life Princess Pingning almost lost and the humiliation she suffered after the palace turmoil.

Mrs. Wang was still kind-hearted and told the Sheng family's grandmother about her marriage proposal. After Minglan nodded, the decision was made.

Then under Xie Yu's urging and coordination, Minglan, who had just entered the summer, entered the gate of Qi Guogong. Qi Xiaoer and Sheng Minglan were lovers and finally became a couple.

This was also many years later, at the wedding banquet, Xie Yu met Wei Xiaoniang again, and it did feel like it had changed history.

Less than half a month later, the old emperor, who had been in poor health, passed away.

The new king Zhao Zongquan succeeded to the throne. With the help of Xie Yu, he proposed to the new king Zhao Zongquan to make Heng Wang Zhao Yingce the crown prince on the grounds that the political situation was unstable.

Although the new king Zhao Zongquan is reluctant, considering that he succeeded the small sect to the big sect, his current position is unstable and there is a high possibility of recurrence.

Sijun is also a king, and he can share a lot of pressure for him, so he reluctantly recognized it with his eyes.

However, with the death of the old emperor, the encore originally planned had to be postponed until after the national mourning. It happened that the new emperor succeeded to the throne, which can be regarded as the new emperor's kindness.

But it also made Qi Heng understand why Xie Yu had to rush.

Thinking back to the time when I gave Xie Yu a push for the sake of Minglan and took advantage of the prestige of the Duke of Qi, this reward is really worth it.

In fact, although Xie Yu had the intention of repaying the young master Qi Heng, it was also to satisfy his own evil taste.

More importantly, Gu Tingye and Minglan's TV drama character actors divorced in real life, which made Xie Yu very unhappy.

Relatively speaking, Young Master Qi Heng is better. He had a perfect first love and walked into the grave of love with Ming Lan. He should be like Princess Pingning and Duke Qi in this life and live a very loving life!

It used to be possible that because Minglan's status was too low, the Gao family would be bullied when they went to the Duke's Mansion, but now it is basically impossible.

Because the current Minglan, as the heroine, has the kindness to pass down the bloody edict and military talismans for the current saint. With this achievement, Minglan will be able to stay in the Duke of Qi's palace for the rest of her life.

Her status as a concubine of a mid-level civil servant is no longer that important.

Otherwise, Princess Pingning, who only saw the princess, princess and county lord in her eyes, immediately got up and went to Sheng Mansion to propose marriage after Xie Yu revealed the news.

After the incident of King Yan's rebellion, Princess Pingning realized that identity was not so important, but love was the most important.

Later, there were rebels and rebels in Jingchu in the south, so Xie Yu naturally knew the hardships of fighting.

So before Gu Tingye recommended himself, Xie Yu acted first, and after considering himself a civil servant, he recommended General Yunhui Gu Tingye.

The generals who can fight are still there, so naturally it is not the turn of a civil servant like Xie Yu to lead the army.

Soon, General Yunhui Gu Tingye, once again serving as a fire-fighting general, was assigned to the expedition.

Within a few days, the counter-rebellion imperial troops who had received their departure fees were ready.

Xie Yu kept giggling when he saw Gu Tingye preparing to go to war, holding the legitimate son Yu Yanran gave birth to him.

Xie Yu just wants to sing a song that only he can understand, "Green Grassland..."

Afterwards, Xie Yu exchanged greetings with Gu Tingye and wished him success.

Gu Tingye handed over his legitimate son to Rong Niang, secretly complaining about Xie Yu's unwillingness to go on an expedition with him.

Xie Yu said that he was a civil servant, wished Gu Tingye victory, and left quietly.

Then, Xie Yu returned to Kaifeng Mansion, and as the fourth-grade Prime Minister who accepted the new emperor's fate, in the absence of Prince Zhao Yingce, the Kaifeng Mansion Prime Minister, as the second-in-command, he began to govern.

In fact, as the prince of the East Palace, Zhao Yingce's role as Kaifeng Prefecture Yin is only symbolic. The actual power of Kaifeng Prefecture is already in Xie Yu's hands.

This is based on the benefits of Dragon Skill. The risks are high, but the benefits after success are also great.

No wonder so many speculators are willing to take risks and climb the ladder step by step based on their political achievements, without making mistakes in the process, such as being blamed by superiors, being squeezed by colleagues, and digging holes by subordinates. It is too difficult in the officialdom.

If you are promoted to half a rank, you are promoted to half a life.

Speaking of which, Xie Yu was also an opportunist who set up Leng Zao, because the new emperor Leng Zao had very few talents at his disposal, so Xie Yu, a guy with just over four years of official experience, had already been promoted to the fourth rank.

Fortunately, in the matter of liquidation, Xie Yu proved his ability and convinced everyone.

As for other old people in Qiandi, well, they are busy with marriages. For example, Empress Shen's younger brother Shen Guojiu first married Zhang, the only daughter of the British duke.

Although the palace also wanted to seize the opportunity, Xie Yu was afraid that the family would be uneasy, so she did not agree.

Just as he was dealing with some political matters, word spread outside that someone from Yuzhou had returned, and Xie Yu hurried out to greet him.
