The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 160 160. Fainting

The eldest prince has only been in the court to discuss politics for two years, how can he talk to Duke Wei who has experienced three dynasties?

 Looking at the Ninth Prince, who was younger than him but had been discussing politics for many years longer than him, he became more and more angry. Unfortunately, the people under his command were not as brave, good at fighting, and unparalleled in resourcefulness as Duke Wei.

The Queen was born in the Taishi Palace. In the early years, Taishi Pang was a teacher whom Emperor Qi always respected very much. Unfortunately, he passed away before his grandson got married. The Pang family also gradually declined. The mother's family was not living up to expectations, so naturally they had to follow the wife's family. Get started.

 Choose the Li family because, firstly, she is a honest and virtuous person, and secondly, because the Li family’s descendants will be prosperous, and her uncles and brothers will all have a place in the court.

It's a pity that the prosperity of the family is good, but there are too many moths in it. They have been caught by Wei Guogong and others again and again, and suppressed them for many years. Those who stand out are either demoted or no longer employed. For a time, everyone The prince's road to becoming the heir has also become bumpy and bumpy.

Seeing that the eldest prince was silent, Duke Wei targeted Bai Xiang. He looked calm and unconcerned. He looked less like a prime minister and more like a man who had attained Taoism and cultivated immortality.

 “What do you think, Mr. Xiang?”

"The Duke has said so. What else can I say about the truth? I just can't figure it out. If Feng Hai is not good all the time, will this position remain vacant forever? If there is a problem with the Water Transport Department this year, I dare to ask the Duke, is it Feng Hai who has not yet taken up his post to plead guilty? Or are all the thirteen governors from two Zhejiang provinces brought here for questioning?"

The calm tone struck Duke Wei directly in his heart, and the eldest prince felt very happy when he looked at his livid face.

Prime Minister Bai had no interest in whether his son-in-law should take up this important position. He neither shied away nor recommended, but only raised questions about problems that might arise in the future. This made Emperor Qi more suspicious of Wei Guogong recommending the Feng family to the position.

"Well, Feng Aiqing is still seriously injured. We can't count the days for him to take up his post. Duke Wei no longer needs to mention him. It's better to choose a more capable person from the court."

There was a hint of surprise in Emperor Qi's words. Duke Wei knew that the matter was finalized and there was no need to struggle. It was a pity that the chess game that had been planned for so long was about to begin, but no one came, which was a bit disappointing.

However, he quickly made a plan in his mind. If this position could not be used to bring down the Fengbai family, he would have to let one of his own people take over. Otherwise, he would have some constraints if such a huge job fell into the hands of others.

 “That’s what your Majesty said.”

While answering Emperor Qi, he winked at the people behind him. One of them, Mr. Yan, immediately said, "Your Majesty, I would like to recommend someone."

 “Who is Aiqing talking about?”

 “Liang Quanbin, Minister of Dali Temple.”

Liang Quanbin was stunned for a moment when he was mentioned, and then lowered his head to resign. His eyes were full of ecstasy. He didn't expect it. I really didn't expect it. Could it be that Duke Wei had arranged it intentionally?

I saw Master Yan continue to say, "Master Liang has been an official in the court for more than 20 years. He has always tried his best. There has never been any mistakes in Dali Temple under his jurisdiction. It shows that he is a rigorous person. Water transportation Isn’t it true that what the company needs is someone with a rigorous mind and decisive means? In my humble opinion, Mr. Liang is the most suitable person for this position!"

Wen Jingsong is not a fool. As a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he naturally knew that Liang Quanbin had an excellent performance in the official evaluation this time, and he should be promoted to a higher level according to the law. However, he did not expect that he would be mentioned here. Sure enough, Tongwei Getting married at home is different, and your official career will be much more prosperous.

“Liang Aiqing? He is a good candidate. What do you think?”

 “I will obey your Majesty’s will.”

At the beginning of February, the Wei and Liang families were about to get married. What Lord Yan said at this moment might be what Duke Wei meant. No one was willing to make enemies of the Wei family for such a position, so they naturally did not dare to say more. Emperor Qi had no doubts about his ability, but he didn't like that his son had robbed a Miss Wei family, so he was unable to issue an edict.

Liang Quanbin was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot in his heart, but on his face he had to pretend to be calm, neither humble nor arrogant, as if His Majesty had the final say in everything.

Thinking about it, I couldn't find a more suitable candidate than Liang Quanbin for a while. I was about to open my mouth to settle the matter. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came to my mouth, I heard the eldest prince exclaim, "Xiang Bai, Xiang Bai, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Bai Xiang staggering, he fell back. If the Sixth Prince standing next to him hadn't caught him with quick eyesight and quick hands, he would have fallen to the ground.

I don’t know why, but Bai Xiang’s fainting caused everyone present to become confused. A group of ministers swarmed in and surrounded him, with their faces flushed and their eyes closed tightly.

"Isn't it true that Bai Xiang was worried too much about the Feng family and his body was damaged?" As soon as these words came out, Emperor Qi, who was sitting high on the throne, could not remain indifferent. He immediately asked an imperial doctor to move Bai Xiang to a side hall for diagnosis and treatment.

The sixth prince and the eldest prince followed, but Duke Wei looked at them coldly and felt very unhappy.

It’s really the right time to feel dizzy.

However, the affairs of the Director of Water Transport still need to be settled today, otherwise he will be in trouble due to changes in the morning.

When he was about to open his mouth and start playing to Emperor Qi again, he saw the prince beside him whispering a few words to Emperor Qi with a serious face. He was stunned for a moment, and then there was a moment of panic in his eyes, but he was quickly suppressed. .

Immediately said, "Bai Xiang fainted, I am very worried about him, please retreat from the court first, and we will discuss it another day."

 “Withdraw from the court.”

Seeing Emperor Qi leaving in a hurry, Liang Quanbin was so angry that the duck that hit his mouth actually flew away like that!

That Mr. Bai who didn't faint early or late, but fainted just when His Majesty was about to give the order, would really be against him.

Duke Wei did not miss the anxiety when Emperor Qi left, and wondered whether there was something going on in the harem?

I didn’t expect that the Feng family had just experienced smallpox, and Bai Xiang had gone to visit him. Now he fainted as soon as he closed his eyes. No one could tell whether he was also infected with the disease.

Di Qi cherished his life very much, so after being reminded by Wang Gonggong, he naturally had to leave first.

 All the medical officers on duty at Hou Tai Hospital today, including Yizheng, went to the Jiaotai Hall to diagnose Qi Emperor's pulse to ensure that everything was fine.

In the side hall, the two imperial doctors who came to see him were worried about Bai Xiang's fainting syndrome.

Judging from the pulse pattern, it is very dangerous, like a gossamer thread, coming and going. I am afraid that the person will be dead if the white phase is unable to pull the Qi out.

Such a thing happening in the palace is bad for feng shui and luck. He quickly asked the palace people to prepare a carriage, and soon Prime Minister Bai was sent back to the White House.

The people in the Bai Mansion were frightened to death when they saw Bai Xiang being carried in.

Mrs. Lin was still calm and composed, and quickly sent someone to bring the wild ginseng that the Feng family had sent back last time. Only then did Bai Xiang breathe a sigh of relief.
