Chapter 53
Passing through the courtyard, Ning Yuezhao was surprised to find that Jiang Nian appeared in the hall in blue-gray uniform.The butler, Uncle Liu, was looking at him warily, but Jiang Nian was drinking tea as if no one else was there.

"How did you come here?"

Jiang Nian smiled, "Come to find you."

Although it is a very common three words, but there is a hint of intimacy in it, which makes Ning Yuezhao a little embarrassed.

Qingchi followed behind, and Uncle Liu, the housekeeper, was still in the hall, so it was really not a place to talk.

Ning Yuezhao could only say with a straight face: "Let's talk about it when we go back."

In fact, after returning home, the two of them didn't talk about An Chen's matter again, and everyone tacitly revealed it.

That night, in Qifeng Palace.

Jing Ming reported to Jiang Nian the situation of sending people to follow An Zhai in the past few days.

"Your Highness, that old doctor is very problematic." Jing Ming summed up the situation in the past few days, and said seriously, "Although this old man is very cunning, he has to go around to Xu's mansion, but no matter how cunning a fox is, he will show up." When the tail."

Jiang Nian frowned and thought: "This doctor has been in the imperial capital for many years and has a great reputation. Why does he work for An Chen?"

"Why do you think this old man is working for An Chen?" Jing Ming disagreed with him, "I think His Majesty and the others didn't cover their mouths well. If you want to keep a low profile, don't find such a famous doctor. An Although Chen usually doesn't make much publicity, it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't recognize him? The old man probably knew An Chen's identity, and then wanted to go to the Xu Mansion to blackmail him."

Jiang Nian looked at him with some amusement, "Why did he blackmail Xu Zhi? An Chen and Xu Zhi are two people who have almost no intersection. Isn't it better to blackmail His Majesty?"

Jing Ming shook her head, "Who dares to knock on His Majesty's bamboo pole? They will be silenced right away!"

Jiang Nian thought for a while, "Xu Zhi will never do anything unprofitable. If he goes out of his way to help An Chen, the two must have colluded beforehand. Either An Chen promised him something, or he There is something in An Chen's hands."

Jing Ming rolled her eyes, "Just because An Chen can manipulate the cabinet minister?"

Jiang Nian looked serious, "It's scary because he doesn't look like this kind of person at all."

Jing Ming looked at Jiang Nian seriously, "Then what should we do?"

Jiang Nian stood up, moved his shoulders, and said suddenly: "The moonlight is good tonight, let's go to the Imperial Garden for a walk."

Jing Ming was startled and said, "What?"

"I want to enjoy the moon alone." Jiang Nian responded succinctly, and strode out of the palace.

Jing Ming had no choice but to pull up and keep up.

Although he said he was going to enjoy the moon in the Imperial Garden, Jiang Nian walked aimlessly after leaving Qifeng Palace.

As he was walking, he saw Zuo Ming leading a group of imperial troops patrolling in this direction.

Jiang Nian squinted his eyes and stood still.

Zuo Ming saw someone from a long distance, approached and saluted according to the rules.

"Commander Zuo is really conscientious and personally guarding." Jiang Nian praised sincerely.

Tonight is the fifteenth day, and Zuo Ming, the commander of the Imperial Army, will personally lead a team to inspect the palace.

"The emperor's husband is absurd, but he is loyal to his duty." Zuo Ming didn't want to leave after the salute, but Jiang Nian actually started talking to him.

"I don't know if Gu has disturbed Commander Zuo?" Jiang Nian asked suddenly.

Zuo Ming's brows moved slightly, and he asked back: "Is there something wrong with the emperor?"

"No, it's just that the moonlight is very good tonight, so I want to go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the moon." Jiang Nian replied with a smile, "I'm a step ahead."

Zuo Ming bowed and said, "Respectfully, Your Highness."

Then, Jiang Nian walked to the Taiye Pool by himself.

There was a faint fragrance by the pool, Jiang Nian stood in the night wind, his eyes drifted to the lake, as if he was really admiring the moonlight.

Not long after, a figure approached quietly.

Jiang Nian didn't even turn his head, and said with a chuckle, "It's less tiring to talk to smart people."

"Who!" Jing Ming was startled, turned around and found that it was Zuo Ming, pressed his chest and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Zuo, you scared me to death."

Jiang Nian turned around and said to Jing Ming, "I have something to tell Commander Zuo, you go and watch out for us."

"Yes." Although Jing Ming was curious about what his young master was going to say, he obediently went to watch the wind.

After getting along for a period of time, Zuo Ming knew that he was a man of no sloppiness, and the encounter tonight was definitely not a coincidence, so he came to look for him during the patrol.

Zuo Ming said directly, "I just finished a round of patrolling, and I'm going back in a quarter of an hour."

Jiang Nian nodded, "Enough."

He briefly talked about what happened to An Chen, and confessed his doubts.

An Chen's life experience is not a secret in the palace. Everyone knows that he was born in a poor family with no power or influence. He was able to enter the palace only because he was lucky enough to be rescued by Ning Yuezhao, who was still a princess at the time.Even when he was later admitted to the imperial hospital and became an imperial doctor, he was considered to be in Ning Yuezhao's favor.

If the person who said these words in front of Zuo Ming was not Jiang Nian, he would have scoffed, but now that Jiang Nian has spoken, Zuo Ming has to think carefully.

Investigating a person is not difficult for the imperial army, Zuo Ming nodded and said: "I will investigate this matter."

Jiang Nian cupped his fists at him and said, "Thank you."

Half a month later, there was still no clue about what Jiang Nian wanted to investigate, but the results of An Chen's handling had come out.

After experiencing some minor disputes in the court, An Chen's matter was finally settled.

It doesn't say that he is not guilty, but he will not be imprisoned for the time being, and the Ministry of Punishment and the Forbidden Army will respectively send personnel to cross-supervise his actions.He is still the Imperial Physician of Tai Hospital, but his scope of activities will be limited to Anzhai and Tai Hospital in the future.

As for how much punishment he can offset, it all depends on how much he can write silently.Of course, the things he wrote silently will be checked by the senior imperial physicians of the imperial hospital to prevent him from making up random things.

Although this result is not the most satisfactory to all parties, it is the most uncontroversial.

In a blink of an eye, the hot summer passed like this.

In the howling autumn wind, the female Jinshi division's autumn welcomes.

Because Daxing women can also succeed to the throne, the status of women is not inferior to that of men.

Government schools in all state capitals also have women's schools, but fewer people enroll.Therefore, both the scale and attention of the female Jinshi department are much lower than those of the male Jinshi department.

Since Ning Yuezhao succeeded to the throne, Bitao is still the highest female official in Shenglong Palace, and she is in charge of all affairs in the palace, so Qingchi has been much freer.

On this day, after Ning Yuezhao and the officials of the Ministry of Rites discussed and settled the matter of Qiu Wei, she summoned Qingchi to talk.

"This time Qiu Wei, you should also go to participate."

Qingchi was originally the daughter of the Taifu, and she was qualified as a shadow prison, so she could directly participate in Qiuwei without passing the provincial examination.

As Ning Yuezhao's companion when she was still a princess, Qingchi never stopped studying, but there were a lot of things happened this year, and now there is only about a month left before Qiuwei, so she is a little uncertain about it.

"I feel like I'm not hot enough, next time." Qingchi has read poetry and books since he was a child, and he has the lofty and noble heart of a literati in his bones.It is something she has always wanted to do to take the Jinshi examination and become an official career, but the pride in her heart makes her extremely afraid of failure, so she has an evasive mentality.

Ning Yuezhao was a little annoyed, "You said the same thing in the last autumn, how long do you plan to escape?"

Qingchi blushed when she said this, "I..."

"Haha..." At this time, there was a clear laughter from outside the hall, "Don't force her, she is just trying to deceive herself because she is afraid that she will not pass the exam."

It was Jiang Nian who came, and he strolled into the hall like a leisurely stroll, and finally sat down beside Ning Yuezhao.

Qingchi blushed even more when he said this, "Your Highness, how can you say that about me!"

Jiang Nian looked at her with a half-smile, "Otherwise, why don't you dare to participate?"

Qingchi was stimulated by his smile, and threatened: "Who says I dare not, Your Highness, just wait and see!"

Jiang Nian shrugged indifferently, and said with a smile, "Okay."

Qingchi said angrily to Ning Yuezhao, "Your Majesty, please allow me a one-month fake review."

Ning Yuezhao was delighted to see it and said: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, the unyielding Qingchi blessed the body and withdrew from the Dragon Hall.

Ning Yuezhao glanced at Jiang Nian who had a smile on his lips, and said, "The method of aggressive generals."

Jiang Nian smiled, "As long as it works."

In his memory, Qingchi in her previous life also kept avoiding scientific examinations. In fact, her literary talent is not bad, but she lacks self-confidence.Because Qingchi always helped An Chen in his previous life, Jiang Nian hated her so much that he didn't bother to meddle in her affairs.It seems that until he was given to death, this girl had never participated in Qiu Wei, so I don't know what happened afterwards.

If nothing goes wrong this time, Qiu Wei's meeting partner this time is Xu Zhi's daughter Xu Miaoyun.In next year's Spring Festival, Xu Miaoyun will be the number one scholar in the meeting, becoming the first female Jinshi to hold both the title of Huiyuan and the number one scholar since the founding of Daxing.If it weren't for her being the first female Jinshi who won three consecutive Yuan Jinshi, she would also be the first female Jinshi to win the three yuan.

The Jiang family and the Xu family have been fighting for so many years, and have always been in the upper hand, but since Xu Miaoyun entered the court as an official, the situation in the court has changed.And because of Jiang Nian's failure to live up to expectations, Jiang Qixi could hardly hold his head up in the court.Xu Miaoyun quickly made her mark in the court by virtue of her shrewd and capable style of not losing to a man.The Xu family became stronger and stronger day by day, but the Jiang family was going downhill until it fell.

Jiang Nian would not let the tragedy happen again no matter what, and he must find someone who can check and balance Xu Miaoyun.It's a pity that the Jiang family didn't have a suitable woman. After much deliberation, he felt that Qingchi was the most suitable.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nian took a sip of tea in a relaxed manner.

Ning Yuezhao looked at him in surprise, and said angrily, "That's my tea."

"Oh." Jiang Nian reacted lightly, and drank the rest of the tea in one gulp. "I don't mind."
