Chapter 83 Set a Trap
The next day, when Feng Jin and Shen Wenqing talked about opening a women's school, Shen Wenqing's first reaction was: "Your Majesty, stop joking with Wenqing."

Seeing Feng Jin's serious expression, not joking, Shen Wenqing frowned, "Your Majesty, this is impossible, don't waste your time, not to mention that the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty would object, even ordinary people would object. For thousands of years, how can any woman go to school in public? The daughter of a wealthy family, who is raised more delicately, will invite a female gentleman to teach in the backyard, and she will never be allowed to go to any girls' school."

"I know this is difficult, but I want to do it! Wenqing, I just want to ask you, can you help me?"

Feng Jin stared at Shen Wenqing with fiery eyes. Shen Wenqing's expression kept changing. He remained silent all the time, which meant that he extremely disapproved of this matter. Feng Jin suddenly felt a little disappointed, but she had no position to blame Shen Wenqing.

While they were in a stalemate, Wuming interrupted, "Shen Wenqing, you are a rare talent among the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River for a hundred years, right?"

"That is the praise of the world."

Although Shen Wenqing's tone was somewhat modest, the expression on his face showed that he agreed with this praise.

"Since he is an extraordinary talent that is rare in a hundred years, he should do things that ordinary people can't do, dare not do, or even think about. Otherwise, what is the difference from other talents?"

Shen Wenqing frowned, "Wu Ming, are you provoking me?"

"No, I'm not trying to provoke you, I just always think that you are different from other scholars!"

Wuming paused, then continued, "Your Majesty promised you to replace Pei Xiu and become No. 1 in the Great Week. What about your own thoughts? Are you just content to replace Pei Xiu? It's rare that you haven't thought about it. Some things that are famous and recited through the ages? Let thousands of people still remember you after thousands of years?"

Shen Wenqing's eyes lit up, and then the light in his eyes was fleeting, and he was still hesitating.

If this thing is done, it will be chanted through the ages. If it is not done, it will be infamous for thousands of years.

Feng Jin took a deep look at Wuming, but he didn't expect Wuming to be very eloquent. Afterwards, Feng Jin asked Wuming how he thought of saying those words to convince Shen Wenqing, and Wuming said: Don't scholars just love those false names?
"Wen Qing, no matter whether you are willing to work with me or not, I will definitely do this matter. I only trust you and discuss it with you in advance."

Feng Jin observed Shen Wenqing's expression, and said without losing the opportunity.

Shen Wenqing's heart was broken, and she finally made up her mind. Her Majesty is determined to do this. If he does not help, it will be difficult to succeed. At that time, Her Majesty will fail. He, the empress's first adviser, will not have a good reputation.

Anyway, even if he made it clear that running a women's school had nothing to do with him, no one would believe it.

Since you have to be tied to a rope, do it!
Now that it is confirmed, Shen Wenqing will not hesitate any longer. Hesitating will only make the matter fail, "However, Your Majesty, this matter should not be too urgent or too fast. We must first find a pilot. If the promotion in the surrounding states and counties is also successful, it will be promoted in the whole of Dazhou. For the specific plan of this matter, Wen Qing will go back and write an official document, and then submit it to His Majesty."

"Thank you, Wen Qing."

Feng Jin smiled slightly, and Shen Wenqing also smiled, and began to talk about other things with Feng Jin, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Pei's health should be recovering soon. Does Your Majesty have any ideas about the affairs of the Ministry of Officials and Tang Zhongde?"

"The dry firewood has been set up, and the oil has been poured on it, just waiting to set a fire."

As she said, she glanced at Shen Wenqing, "You go and invite Tang Zhongde, Minister of Officials, Song Ming, Minister of Punishment, and Lord Qi, Minister of Household Affairs. These three auxiliary ministers will enter the palace tomorrow morning and say that I have important matters to discuss."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Feng Jin curled her lips into a smile, "Remember to let the wind out and let those who should know know."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, there is no need to reveal any rumors. There are many spies from the ministers in the palace. Pei Xianghui will know immediately."

Having said this, Shen Wenqing raised her head, and smiled at Feng Jin.

The little eunuch who went out of the palace to deliver letters to the Tang, Qi, and Song palaces had not yet returned to the palace, and the news that His Majesty wanted to see the three auxiliary ministers reached the prime minister's mansion.

"Important matter? What important matter can she have?"

Pei Xiu sneered, and for a moment, her brows furrowed slightly, "What decision is she going to make?"

Pei Zhong thought hard on the side, "What decision is your majesty going to make? Avoiding the prime minister, is it not conducive to the prime minister's decision? Does she want to remove the prime minister's position?"

"How is this possible? She hasn't been in power yet, and she doesn't have the ability to seize the truth...to be in power?"

Pei Xiu's eyes sank, "Could it be that she wants to become an imperial concubine and take charge of the government step by step?"

Pei Xiu's long black eyebrows were tightly frowned, "Could it be that she really wants to make Tang Qinghe the emperor's husband? Impossible, she can't like Tang Qinghe..."

"If you don't like it, why would you invite Tang Qinghe for three nights in a row? Even if you don't like it, Tang Qinghe is also the most suitable candidate for the emperor's wife. Since your majesty doesn't want to be a puppet emperor and wants to seize power by himself, he won't consider it. Multiple personal preferences."

Pei Xiu shook his head, "No, Tang Qinghe is not the most suitable candidate for the queen's wife, but Qi Xun, the eldest son of the Qi family, and Qi Che, the second son. After all, the old fox Qi is completely loyal to the queen, and it is impossible for her majesty to choose someone from the Tang family to be the emperor. Husband, even if Tang Zhongde abandons the truth and joins His Majesty's camp, His Majesty will not trust him so quickly. After all, a person who dares to recite the Lord once can recite it a second time! Even if she likes Tang Qinghe, she will not I will trust the Tang family, and I will definitely not choose Tang Qinghe as the emperor's husband!"

Pei Xiu fell into deep thought and muttered to himself, "What is His Majesty planning?"

"Could it be that Mingxiu plank road is hiding in Chencang? He loves Tang Qinghe, but secretly wants to choose Qi Xun or Qi Che?"

Pei Xiu still shook his head, "Impossible, Qi Xun is the eldest son and direct grandson, old fox Qi wanted to keep him to support the Qi family, old fox Qi wanted to send Qi Che to the palace at the beginning, but look at the three times between His Majesty and Qi Che. There were two conflicts, and Qi Che was thrown into the barracks by His Majesty in anger, even the old fox Qi was useless, it was obviously Lang Wuqing's concubine's intention, His Majesty has no idea about Qi Che."

"Maybe it's not the emperor's business at all, maybe it's something else, the old slave has already sent people to find out the news, and soon he will know why His Majesty suddenly summoned the three auxiliary ministers."

While talking, someone outside said respectfully, "Master Xiang, there is news from the palace."

Pei Zhong hurriedly went to open the door, and a servant said a few words in Pei Zhong's ear. After hearing this, Pei Zhong's face changed drastically, he quickly closed the door, walked quickly to the bed, and said hurriedly, "Master, Your Majesty has just summoned Lord Liu, Minister of Rites, to inquire about the wedding!"

"Big marriage?"

Pei Xiu's face darkened, "Is she really planning to get married?"

Pei Zhong hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Master Xiang, your majesty's wedding will happen sooner or later. Besides, your majesty recently took advantage of your illness to suppress you in the prime minister's mansion. If your majesty really has a plan, you must I will take advantage of this period of time to select the emperor's husband, and to finalize all the matters of the wedding, and announce it to the world, and when the Prime Minister recovers from his illness, everything will be powerless!"

Pei Xiu's face was so gloomy that he dripped water, and he snorted heavily, "Without the consent of the truth, she will never get married!"

Pei Zhong sighed, "Master Xiang, haven't you found out yet? Which of the things His Majesty has done recently has really been approved by you? You collected those beautiful boys from all over the place and sent them to the palace for offerings. Your Majesty has fun, let her enjoy the pleasure in the harem, and be a puppet emperor with peace of mind, but your Majesty said that the harem will be dismissed, and when you receive the news, everyone has already left. The news is overwhelming, and I just want to cook the raw rice before you have time to react, so that even if you find out next time, it will be too late, and it may be the same this time."

"No, there must be something wrong!"

Pei Xiu rubbed her painful temples, "It's not like her style, whether it's her before or her later, she won't decide the candidate of the emperor's husband so rashly."

"But what if it's a temporary solution?"

Pei Xiu's expression changed, "Pei Zhong, what do you mean? Be clear!"

"Perhaps, this is just a strategy and expedient strategy of His Majesty's desperation. Maybe she does not trust the Tang family at all, but she may also choose Tang Qinghe as the emperor's husband, take the opportunity to take the government, and even take away the officials. , she has the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households in her hands, and she can barely compete with the Prime Minister. When she has enough power in the future, she will get rid of the Tang family. , If you want to waste it, you can waste it."
