The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 936

So what if he passed the Jinshi exam?As long as the old lady is unwilling, my father dare not seek an official position for him.

Even if he wanted to rely on his own ability, he couldn't do it. The old lady forced his father to keep suppressing him.As long as the father shows a little bit of talk, who in the court will meddle in other people's business?
To help him is to offend Duke Zhen. Who would do such a thankless thing?
In the end, he was forced to stay in the mansion to take care of common affairs for the sake of filial piety.

For this reason, he almost hated his aunt, but there was nothing he could do about her.If a hat of filial piety is pressed down, he will be smashed to pieces.

"Now you are not too young, Brother Hua and Brother Zhuang are both grown up. Why don't you find an official position for your father, and Brother Zhuang and the others will be able to offer it when they talk about marriage in the future."

Yao Qingqi was dumbfounded, and then the brilliance of hope burst out in his eyes.

"Find an official position for me?" His voice was trembling, his lips were trembling, and his expression was even more disbelieving.

Seeing this scene, the old man felt even more guilty.

"Indeed! You are so old, how can you always take care of the general affairs of the mansion?"

When Yao Qingqi heard this, he almost laughed angrily.Could it be that he wants to take care of general affairs in the mansion?Wasn't it forced by that good aunt?

But, thinking of this, his face suddenly darkened.

Although the influence of the aunt's natal family is much lower than before, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, will the aunt agree?

Will she make him unable to be an official for the rest of his life?

"Don't worry, I will definitely do what my father promised you." The old man knew what the third child was worried about, so he comforted him.

Both Yao Qinglan and Yao Qingcheng's eyes sank, but they still smiled and congratulated.

"Congratulations third brother, you have found an official position this time. You must do your best in the future and don't let your father and mother down!"

"Yes! You refused to enter the officialdom before, you just wanted to manage common affairs. After so many years, you finally figured it out. Second brother is here to congratulate you first."

The two brothers had an incomparable tacit understanding this time, and they pushed Yao Qingqi beyond words.He even accepted the kindness of the two with a smile, but in fact he almost vomited blood in his heart.

At the same time, he was furious in his heart, you can stop me for a while, but you can't stop me for a lifetime, just wait and see!
"In the future, when I enter the officialdom, I will have to rely on my two elder brothers to take care of me!"

"Gu Chengyu is very capable, and the emperor holds him in high esteem. From this point of view, it's not a disadvantage for the third girl to marry him. But..."

Yao Qingqi analyzed what happened just now with a smile, and wanted to continue.

But he suddenly thought that if he behaved too prominently at this moment and stole the limelight from the two direct brothers, it would make them feel uncomfortable.

If he was given a dark hand when he was looking for an official position, wouldn't he be wasted again?
Thinking about it this way, he felt that it was better to hide his clumsiness, so he simply kept his mouth shut.

Seeing that the third child still had some unfinished business to say, the old man looked at the two sons-in-law who were sitting beside him, and knew that he didn't want to show off, so he didn't ask any more questions.

He planned to wait for the two eldest sons to leave before he asked the third son's opinion.

"Three girls, you have to ask more. I also felt wronged by three girls before, but now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, then three girls can't have any messy thoughts. Gu Chengyu is still a little capable, let's wait and see. "

Li Wei received the imperial decree that day, and when he went back to work, he was always absent-minded.

He didn't understand, the emperor gave King Jing a marriage, how could he choose his own family?The Li family behind him is not one of those shabby households, and he has a lot of influence in the court, otherwise he would not be able to sit firmly in his current position.

The emperor bestowed his daughter in marriage to Prince Jing. Could it be that he wanted to tie Li Shi and Prince Jing together?Could it be that the emperor is not afraid that they will collude with each other and produce something that they shouldn't have?
And what about Xia Qing?He didn't believe that the emperor didn't know about Xia Qing's relationship with him.

Li Wei couldn't figure it out, and he was very anxious, so he waited for the value to be released so that he could go to Xia Qing's mansion to discuss countermeasures.

So amidst the congratulations from his colleagues, Li Wei finally waited until the time for his dismissal.

When Li Wei arrived at Xia Mansion, Xia Qing had already been waiting in the study.

"My lord! What exactly is the emperor's gift of marriage?" Li Wei was very worried, and wondered if the emperor would be dissatisfied with their Li family.

"The emperor has his own intentions in doing things. It may be that he wants to weaken the old man's power and clear the way for the second prince who is about to become the prince."

Xia Qing sat at the top, how could he not be in a hurry?It's just that he has been in the officialdom for many years, so naturally he won't show it.

"Could it be that the emperor is going to attack you?" Li Wei was horrified. No wonder he was implicated. Will the emperor take this opportunity to eradicate Li Shi?
Seeing that the horrified expression on Li Wei's face did not seem to be fake, Xia Qing narrowed his eyes.

He remembered what his staff member He Zhongkuan had said to him before Li Wei came, and couldn't help but look at Li Wei again.

What he said just now that the emperor had such intentions was absolutely true, but Li Wei knew that Prince Jing was going to choose a concubine, so why didn't he propose marriage to his prostitute daughter as soon as possible?
Doesn't this just mean that Li Wei is tempted?Could it be that Li Wei saw that King Jing was so strategic and the emperor suppressed him many times, so he wanted to find another master?
This is not impossible!After all, people go to high places, and water flows to low places.

Besides, he is only the chief assistant, and he is already old.If one day the emperor, who is also aged, goes west with the crane, then I don't know if I can keep my position.

Can the new emperor trust himself?If you let yourself be disarmed and return to the field, and make room for others, this is also very possible.

The most important point is that he has not yet chosen which prince to take refuge in, which makes the officials who follow him feel uncertain.I'm afraid that if the new emperor comes to power, they will not be reused.

Recently, people's hearts have been a little distracted, and Xia Qing feels that it is time to make up his mind.You have to find someone on the bright side first, otherwise, wouldn't your long-planned plans be in vain?

"Not really. The emperor still needs me now, so don't panic for the time being. However, now that the second prince has become the prince, the emperor is already old, so we must move closer to the prince. After all, when the prince ascends the throne in the future, we want to rely on him , people may not necessarily appreciate it."

After Xia Qing finished speaking, he stared at Li Wei closely, observing Li Wei's expression carefully.

"Did your lord choose the second prince? But." Li Wei hesitated, he felt that the timing was not right.

In fact, they had already missed the opportunity, and the prince might not be able to appreciate it now.

And before the day of the ceremony of establishing the crown prince, who knows if something will happen?
There was no sound from the First Prince and the Third Prince, perhaps some big move was brewing.Besides, there is Prince Jing, this person should not be underestimated!

"What? Do you think it's wrong?" Xia Qing's expression froze slightly. Could it be that He Zhongkuan was right?Li Wei has other thoughts?
