Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 51 is a hard bone

Chu Feng is the first-class bodyguard in front of the imperial court. This time he went south with Emperor Guangxi in plain clothes in order to find a reliable assistant minister Miaozi for the prince Zhao Xi who was about to be canonized as the prince.

Emperor Guangxi had only one son under his knees when he was not confused, and he was only eight years old.

Zhao Xi was intelligent by nature, and had already shown amazing talent at a young age, so Emperor Guangxi intended to canonize him as the crown prince.

However, Zhao Xi was not born of the empress. His biological mother, Concubine Qi, was promoted to a noble concubine because she gave birth to him.

Concubine Qi's mother's family is weak and has no foundation in the court. On the contrary, the empress's family is intertwined. In addition, because the empress is unwilling to be reconciled to Zhao Xu being valued by Emperor Guangxi, she secretly used many methods, causing her relatives to become powerful and control the court. .

At the end of the three-year imperial examination, those new scholars were secretly divided into factions.

This time, as an excuse for the southern tour, Emperor Guangxi’s intention is to personally find a few students who are outstanding in all aspects as backup confidants, otherwise they will not be selected until the palace examination, and these students will have been thrown into the dye vat for dyeing, and they will be dirty. .

The Empress Su's family has been prosperous for a hundred years, and it cannot be disintegrated overnight. If they want to fight against the Su family, they must re-train a group of completely trustworthy court upstarts.

Therefore, Emperor Guangxi decided to start from the source of the imperial examination.

Now in February, when the provincial and county examinations were held, he traveled all the way and secretly observed many students, but he didn't like them very much.

Those people are either a little clever, but the cleverness is not on point, or they are too honest and responsible, and they are easy to be calculated and used by others.

Emperor Guangxi's ideal candidate must be a hard stubble, but if he takes advantage of it, it doesn't matter whether the person in front of him is the Heavenly King Lao Tzu or the Jade Emperor, he will be right.

If you want to deal with those old fellows of the Su family in the court, you have to have a man full of thorns, who will resist ridicule, curse and calculation.

In this way, it is necessary to require this assistant minister to have a city mansion and a brain.

Su Xiang is a brazen person who doesn't play cards according to common sense. If there is such a person to fight against him, he can save a little effort.

It's a pity that after so many days of patrolling, Emperor Guangxi didn't come across anyone who caught his eye.

Before coming to Pingjiang County, he was still reflecting on whether he had set his requirements too high?A student who is still wandering around the threshold of the imperial examination, if he can have the courage, the brain, the city, wouldn't he have gone to heaven long ago?

He even decided to lower the requirements when he arrived in Pingjiang County. If he couldn't find a suitable one after lowering the requirements, he could only go back to Beijing and think of other ways.

However, what is surprising is that on the first day the master and servant arrived in Pingjiang County, they encountered Song Wei and his wife cheating and deceiving. There are more county magistrates and salt merchants as backing.

It's ridiculous that Magistrate Nalu and Master Zhang still tacitly think that Song Wei is the relative of each other.

As for what benefits Song Wei can get from doing this, Emperor Guangxi has not figured it out yet, but he feels that it is impossible for Song Wei to do such a risky thing without any purpose.

Because Emperor Guangxi specially asked Chu Feng to inquire about it, Song Wei is a very scholarly character, he is different from popular customs, and he doesn't seem to be someone who can play tricks behind his back.

At first, Emperor Guangxi thought that Song Wei was trying to cheat on the county exam by currying favor with County Magistrate Lu and Mr. Zhang, but after seeing Song Wei himself, Emperor Guangxi quickly denied this idea.

Although he travels in plain clothes, the majesty of the emperor is still there. During this journey, almost no one can be so calm and humble in front of him, and dare to open his mouth so that he is speechless.

Song Wei is a smart person, from his attire and Chu Feng's attire, he should be able to guess that his status is extraordinary.

Guessing that he has an extraordinary status and yet dare to speak rudely, it can be seen that this person is a tough one.

Emperor Guangxi couldn't help laughing.

Song Wei didn't even bother to please the superiors, how could he put down all his pride to please a local parent official?

This is too much to justify.
