After crossing, she was forced to become the first assistant

Chapter 74
"I have always been very clear about rewards and punishments. Considering that King Kang is my younger brother, I spared his life, stripped him of his title, and imprisoned him in the imperial city for the rest of his life."

"Wei Xingzhi made great contributions in repelling the enemy and providing disaster relief, but he failed to discover King Kang's conspiracy in time, and he burned the village again. The merits and demerits are equal, and there is no reward or punishment."

Wan Qiqian paused, and from the corner of his eye quietly looked at Wei Xingzhi's face, seeing that there was no fluctuation, he continued, "The son of Ruijun Prince's Mansion bestowed the eighth-rank secretary, the grandson of Qin's parents, and was promoted from the fifth-rank censor."

The smile lines on Wan Rongxuan's face couldn't be hidden, being able to be an idle official would be considered an explanation when he goes back, and the boss said that as long as he studies hard and works hard, he will be promoted in the future.

Cao Chengmo kept stretching out his ears to wait for his reward, but after waiting for a long time, he still couldn't get it. He couldn't help but curse in his heart, did the emperor forget him?
The matter of Kang Wang's rebellion is over, and the people who died in Chengguan Village have an explanation.Regarding the red plague, Wan Qiqian chose not to make a statement, fearing that it would cause civil unrest.

In the middle of the night, when Wei Xingzhi was about to go to bed, there was a 'dong dong dong' sound on the door and window.

She opened the door, Cao Chengmo had half white hair, and smiled flatteringly at Wei Xingzhi.

"Master Wei."

Wei Xingzhi turned sideways to let him in. She sat at the table by herself and poured two glasses of water.

"Lord Cao, although I'm not as proud as an ordinary woman, I'm still a woman anyway. Is there anything I can't talk about during the day?"

Cao Chengmo's face froze, he forgot about it.In fact, Wei Xingzhi was dressed up all day long, with black hair tied high, and acted decisively and fiercely.

It's not like a girl, just because she was hurt and kept silent is enough to make him subconsciously regard her as a man.

"Then... the next official will come back tomorrow."

Wei Xingzhi took a sip of tea, "It's all here, Mr. Cao just say it."

Cao Chengmo laughed a few times, and sat opposite Wei Xingzhi, "Master Wei, did the emperor mention anything about being an official?"

Wei Xingzhi chuckled and put down the cup in his hand, "Master Cao, what aspect is it?"

"Here, isn't Master Wei asking the question knowingly?" Cao Chengmo frowned slightly, with a troubled expression on his face.

Wei Xingzhi pushed the teacup in front of Cao Chengmo, "Your Majesty Cao, don't worry. Your Majesty Cao has made great contributions to this disaster relief, and I and the emperor will remember it in my heart. I also know what Master Cao is asking for, but ..."

Cao Chengmo held the cup of herbal tea, unable to drink it, but looked at Wei Xingzhi eagerly.

Wei Xing knew, "It's just that this official will return to Beijing with His Majesty in a few days. The dragons in Jizhou have no leader, and we still need Lord Cao's help. Under the management of Lord Cao, Handan is becoming more and more prosperous. For the time being, there is only Lord Cao. The emperor believes it for the time being. "

Cao Chengmo's eyes dimmed, "Could it be that your Majesty wants the next official to move from Handan to Jizhou."

"No." Wei Xingzhi said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty means that Mr. Cao will stabilize the situation in Jizhou for the time being. After His Majesty returns to Beijing, he will choose one person from the court to dispatch Jizhou. Because Jizhou has experienced so many disasters and the situation is unstable, so That’s why I thought Mr. Cao could stay here temporarily.”

"What about after that?" Cao Chengmo asked.

Wei Xingzhi smiled and said, "I have already discussed with His Majesty, Mr. Cao has the virtue of governing the world, and within half a year, he was transferred back to the imperial city, and served as the Deputy Envoy of the Fourth Grade General Political Envoy."

"Sure, really?" Cao Chengmo opened his eyes wide and gulped.

Wei Xingzhi pursed his lips, "I can still deceive Mr. Cao."

Cao Chengmo picked up the teacup on the table and drank it heartily, "If you can have Master Wei's words, I will rest assured."

Wei Xingzhi poured him another cup, "I don't know something. I heard that Mr. Cao was selected as a Beijing official because of the palace examination. Why was he later transferred to Handan County?"

Mentioning this, Cao Chengmo's face was dark, and he snorted coldly for a while, "Lord Wei doesn't know something. I was framed by a traitor back then. There was a wrong compilation of a story about the late emperor. The late emperor was furious, so he dispatched me to Handan."

"This person is..."

Cao Chengmo said coldly, "It took me nearly three years to find out that the person behind it was Prime Minister Jia, but after the rebels were eliminated, Prime Minister Jia died suddenly in prison, and my family found something was wrong. The Cheng family is somewhat involved."

"The Cheng family?" Wei Xingzhi's eyes paused for a moment. Is it the Cheng family again?
Cao Cheng said silently, "Exactly, after Mr. Wei returns to Beijing, you must be careful of the Cheng family."

Wei Xingzhi nodded slightly, "Thank you."

After seeing off Cao Chengmo, Wan Tuqian walked out leisurely behind the screen of the birds singing together.

Wei Xingzhi stood up, nodded and said, "Since your majesty can see what Cao Daren wants, why don't you tell him yourself."

In this way, Cao Chengmo can still be sold as a favor, but Wan Qiqian gave this favor to her.

Wan Chengqian took a new cup and raised an eyebrow at Wei Xingzhi.

Wei Xingzhi raised the arm of the teapot and poured a cup of tea, his expression a bit puzzled.

One or two don't regard her as a woman, do they?

After Wan Tengqian drank his saliva, he said, "King Kang, I'll take care of it, but it's the concubine Ji next to him, and I can leave it to you."

Wei Xingzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's all up to the emperor."

Wan Chengqian raised his eyes, "Do you know what your biggest shortcoming is now?"

Wei Xingzhi paused, and looked at Wan Chengqian in silence.

"Sorry."

In that era, being soft-hearted was a good thing, but here, being soft-hearted would only hold her back, until she was doomed forever.

Wan Tengqian pushed his chin towards the chair, "Sit down." Then he said, "For those who are killing you, you can do a legitimate defense and get rid of them mercilessly, but have you found out? Those who are not positive You always have a three-point margin for the person who strikes at you."

"minister……"

Wan Chengqian chuckled, "But it's you who make me trust you unconditionally."

So what she can't do, he will do.

"Do you want to unify the world, Hai Qing He Yan?"

Wei Xingzhi rubbed the edge of the table. She was very ambitious, otherwise she would not have won the first place every time in school.

At first she thought that the purpose of coming here was to protect the Wei family and fulfill the original owner's regret, but now the closer she gets to the emperor, the more she realizes that she seems to be here to help the emperor?
Wan Qiqian said, "Within ten years, I will ensure that there will be no more wars and disputes in this world. Wei Xingzhi, would you like to be with me?"

Only by unifying the world can we find the way back without any worries.

"Your Majesty is willing to use the minister, and the minister must do his best until he dies." Wei Xingzhi replied with a deadpan expression.

Wan Tuqian's raised phoenix eyes seemed to contain a ray of light, and he looked at Wei Xingzhi with a soft and ridiculous look, "I won't let you die."

"Okay, I'm leaving for Beijing in two days, you should rest well."

He exposed his identity, so the sooner he returned to the palace, the better, and there would be many ambushes and assassinations along the way. Let Wei Xingzhi go back with him, and both sides have a layer of protection.

Wei Xingzhi closed the door, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, is his heart soft?Yes, otherwise she wouldn't be here.
