Chapter 657 Prince, please respect yourself 14
"Qi Xiangye, none of the hidden guards sent to assassinate Zuo Xiang came back, Zuo Xiang fled."

The words of the guard who reported made his pupils dilate continuously, making him run away?
"Where's the person?" Angrily crushing the teacup on the table, the right minister glared angrily at the guard who reported.

"Back... back to Zuo Xiangfu."

……

Shen Huaijiang came back after the morning session on the second day. When he got home, Shen Qiaoan was having breakfast in the living room.

"Why is Daddy so happy today?" After taking a sip of the porridge, Shen Qiaoan put down her chopsticks, "Today's porridge is very fragrant, so Daddy should come over and try it too."

Shen Huaijiang nodded, didn't bother to take off his official clothes and went to the table, first drank the porridge brought by Miaoqin, and then said, "Today's court meeting is really exciting."

"Originally, it was the right minister who exposed the left minister's embezzlement of raw materials, which led to the destruction of the newly built bridge in the south. Originally, the emperor was so angry that he wanted to condemn the left minister to death. Who knew that the reversal was too fast."

"The witness backtracked and said that Prime Minister Zuo just handed over Jianliang's silver to the purchasing officer of Jianliang this time. All these raw materials are the responsibility of the purchasing officer, and Prime Minister Zuo is not fully responsible."

"In the end, it was revealed that the destruction of the bridge was actually caused by the procurement officer, who wanted to frame the prime minister."

"Who doesn't know, the purchasing officer is from the right minister's side, and the emperor let them take charge of this matter together just for the sake of fairness."

Shen Qiaoan smiled and said, "Then today's morning court is really wonderful, but isn't daddy never telling his daughter about court affairs? Why today..."

Shen Huaijiang waved his hand, "It's not a secret. Besides, if I don't tell you, the newspapers subscribed by the family will tell you. It's better to tell you about it earlier."

"Father is so happy today because of the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two Prime Ministers?" Shen Qiaoan asked with a smile after taking a sip of porridge.

"Yo, really not." Shen Huaijiang pursed his lips and laughed, "I received the news after I came down to court that your father and I will be promoted to the position of lecturer in the Imperial Academy."

"Really, Daddy?" Shen Qiaoan's expression was surprised, her eyes were filled with joy, "That's a fifth-rank official position!"

These days, who has been promoted so quickly as Shen Huaijiang, who has been promoted to two ranks in one go.

Shen Huaijiang touched his chin suddenly, and sighed, "I heard that this is what Zuo Xiang meant. I don't know if his solicitation is a fortune or a curse!"

After Shen Huaijiang took up the position of Minister of the Imperial Academy, he became the Zuo Xiang. If the Zuo Xiang stayed in office, he would have good luck in his official career.

If the right minister kicked the left minister away and pulled him off the stage, Shen Huaijiang would be the one who bears the brunt of the persecution.

Shen Qiaoan held his hand and comforted him, "Father, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided."

"Besides, after listening to you talking about Prime Minister Zuo's demeanor in the morning, my daughter believes that Prime Minister Left will not lose to Prime Minister Right."

Shen Qiaoan pursed her lips, with your daughter on the left, naturally she would not lose, since she asked for the official position from the left!
At the end of the month, it was Mrs. Zuo Xiang's birthday. Mrs. Zuo Xiang had a young son of marriageable age, so she specially invited ladies from dignitaries and noble families in the capital to the banquet.

Shen Qiaoan was not invited at first, the daughter of a seventh-rank Zhima official, their Zuo Xiangfu naturally looked down upon her.

But it's different now, Shen Qiaoan has become the controller of their lives and the leader in terms of power, they have to confess Shen Qiaoan as their ancestor.

On the day of the banquet at the end of the month, Zuo Xiang's mansion specially sent someone to pick up Shen Qiaoan, all the way to the gate of Zuo Xiang's mansion, and Zuo Xiang and Zuo Xiang's wife personally brought her into the mansion.

In order not to let others find out, the banquet was specially held at the back door.
