During this period, something less noticeable happened - Shuyu Villa, a famous villa belonging to the Second Prince in the suburbs of Beijing, suddenly caught fire and half of the villa was burned down.
Fires are common, but those who are lucky enough to have been to Shuyu Villa also have a question in their minds - Shuyu Villa is surrounded by springs and is built on top of mountains. What kind of fire can burn? What kind of fire can climb mountains and burn down half of the villa along the cliff?
Of course, only a few people involved understand the fishiness of these matters.
This trend stirred up the government and the public, but the instigator stayed away from the center of the storm. Feng Zhiwei, the Minister of Etiquette, assumed a leisurely attitude that had nothing to do with this matter. In fact, she only reached out to reveal the inside story. The corner of the veil, what is underneath has to be done by those who have to do it.
According to what she thought, Emperor Tiansheng was wary of the second prince, so he ordered the leader of Jin Yuwei to accept the second prince's overtures in an attempt to gain something. However, the identity of leader Jin Yuwei was too scary after all. , did not have complete access to the core inside story of the second prince and others, but Ning Yi and Feng Zhiwei accidentally got a clear picture of it. Now Feng Zhiwei used Shaoning's hand to hand over the paper and used Yueshan Orion to be killed. This hint reminded the emperor to go back and investigate the difference in the place where the crime occurred, so as to truly find out the unusual movements of Changning Fan. Then based on the interactions between Changning Fan and the second prince, he thought of something even more terrifying - the prince contacted the foreign vassal, and the outer vassal was restless. , and even pursued them to other provinces. What does this mean?
Emperor Tiansheng endured so much, but he couldn’t bear this one no matter what!
This is the real step-by-step approach that leads to in-depth explanations - not saying anything directly but letting you think clearly on your own. What you come up with is what you believe in the most.
Here in Beijing, there is a turbulent situation, but over there she continues her own business - starting from the seventh day of March, the spring period.
This year's spring is later than in previous years, and the examiner is Xiao Wei Shangshu, who is known as a national scholar. The scholars have been impatient, just waiting to show off their skills and be named on the gold medal. He is their justifiable room master.
Chief Wei bathed and burned incense to welcome the spring, and the guards came to visit eating walnuts. Wei Shangshu's famous jade carving guard who also followed her and never left her side played a great personal role in the spring.
For example, for a body search, he moved a stool far away and sat on the side, lazily eating walnuts. It is amazing to say that no matter who carries something with him, he will be hit by a walnut when he passes by. Once, a guy was There were two articles stuck on the soles of the feet, but they were not found by the gatekeepers. However, they suddenly jumped when passing by Master Gu. Inexplicably, the shoes fell off and the garters were loose. The scenery on the soles of the feet was clearly visible, so he was naturally driven away. When he got out, the onlookers couldn't figure out how he discovered the trick in his stockings and his deep-draped veil. How do you force people to jump? When he couldn't figure it out, he felt more and more mysterious. The scholars were frightened when they passed by him. Not to mention cheating, they were afraid to hide even a steamed bun. This created a record for the least number of spring entrainments in the past years.
Another example is the inspection tour. This time, the invigilators in Chunwei felt very happy. They no longer had to run around all over the place. Master Gu squatted on a tree, with his daughter sitting on his shoulders, looking around and listening. Bafang, in the huge deep examination room, he alone controls the overall situation. The scholars hold their hips and dare not even fart loudly, because if there is any abnormal noise, there may be two people, one big and one small, spinning above their heads, using exactly the same The gesture of staring blankly at you really affects people's literary thoughts.
On the seventh, ninth, and eleventh day of the lunar month, after nine days of exams, the scholars stomped on the ground, trembling and walked away holding on to the wall. Feng Zhiwei sealed the examination room, and other people had to deal with things like anonymity and sealing papers. Do it, put in heavy guards, and go home in an empty space.
The draft for the civil service has been approved. Hua Qiong was promoted to General of the Southern Fujian Province and will take office today. Tomorrow she and Yan Huaishi will have to return their home as husband and wife.
Hua Qiong left Beijing, and Feng Zhiwei had to hold a farewell banquet no matter what. A few days ago, when she was still busy with spring, she ordered the kitchen to prepare well, except for the specialties of Nanhai and Southern Fujian. , collected famous dishes from all over Tiansheng, including stewed deer antler with snow lotus from the far snow mountains, and vowed to let Hua Qiong eat all of Tiansheng in one go. After eating, Hua Qiong would miss the food of Wei Mansion all the time, and would come back no matter what happened. Have a meal.
In the evening, there was a banquet at Shuanghong Pavilion in the Wei Mansion. It was basically a family banquet. The Yan family, Feng Zhiwei, Gu Nanyi, Zong Chen, their two children and their two pets were all included in any banquet with children. There was no mood or atmosphere. They were dancing together on the table with soup, silver spoons and saliva flying together. Yan Changtian was sitting in his mother's arms, timidly pointing at Gu who was sitting high on the table, waving his little spoon. Knowing that he wanted to eat by himself, the pretty boy Yan Changtian could already see the shadow of Hua Qiong’s ex-husband, who was thin and shy. Hua Qiong often talked about being dissatisfied with this son and always wanted to beat him. On the contrary, It was Yan Huaishi who felt distressed and often stopped him. Tonight, Yan Huaishi was afraid that Yan Changtian would not eat, so he was about to carry him over to feed him. Hua Qiong had already put the spoon in Yan Changtian's hand, and held him aside to let him He ate it by himself and said with a smile: "Xiaowei, you think of me as a country bumpkin, or do you think that I will be inferior to you in the future and unable to travel all over the world to eat delicious food? Look at this table, tsk tsk, I can't do it without a thousand taels."
"A thousand taels of silver is nothing." Feng Zhiwei enthusiastically persuaded Gu Nanyi to eat, pushing a plate of white and slightly yellow custard-like things in front of him, "Officials of the Imperial Capital, a meal costs thousands of gold. There are many, what do we think? We must know that when we are officials, we should exploit, exploit and corrupt appropriately. Although we do not have to be collusive, we should not be too aloof, otherwise people will think you are an alien and will be wary of you and alienate you. When the time comes, they will work together to kill you. They like to look up and see that everyone is equally dirty, so they feel relieved. You know, if the water is clear, there will be no fish."
She spoke carelessly, but Hua Qiong stopped and listened attentively. Zong Chen and others knew that Feng Zhiwei was reminding Hua Qiong about the way to live in officialdom. Yan Huaishi smiled gratefully at Feng Zhi, Gu Nan Yi was sniffing the dish, and was very satisfied with the aroma. He took a spoonful of it with a spoon, put it first in Feng Zhiwei's bowl, and said: "Don't make it dirty."
Feng Zhiwei nodded good-naturedly, "Okay, don't get dirty."
But Gu Nanyi was still worried. He looked at her face carefully, as if he was looking for dirt on her face. He was not interested in these words and only listened half-heartedly. Very unhappy.
