Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 73
No matter how undercurrents are surging in the former court and the harem, the important things that should be done are still to be done.

At the end of the first month, the position of chief examiner of Nanqi Chunwei was finally decided, and it was held by He Dashi.

The He family is a century-old scholarly family, and He Dashi himself is a great Confucian who entered the cabinet after the first emperor. Although he has been quiet for a few years, he still plays an important role.

All the officials in the court and the central government were unexpected, but they couldn't say anything against him.

Of course, it's not good for the Chen family, and among the people who assisted him, besides the son-in-law He Xinyan and the official minister Xu Jiangbai, there was also Ning Chen's cousin, the eldest son of the Duke of England.

Sure enough, the He family was more excited than unexpected.

The father and son of the He family are talented, but they have to restrain their edge because they are the Lord.

After all, in order to prevent the son-in-law from becoming too powerful because of clinging to the royal family, most of the dynasties did not allow the son-in-law to have any real power.

Moreover, not only the son-in-law had to avoid suspicion, but the entire He family had to avoid suspicion, which made Master He take the initiative to take over the job of compiling documents.

Now that Ning Chen has made this order, it is undoubtedly to activate the He family.

After all, there is no explicit regulation on whether to reuse the consort, it all depends on the emperor himself.

Ning Chen is young, he has the guts and mind to use the He family, and in the current situation, any father and son of the He family can solve many difficulties.

Ho family.

Ning Jin and the son-in-law have a very good relationship, so although there is a princess mansion, they don't live in it, and they live in the He mansion.

"Ma'am, today the emperor ordered that my father be the chief examiner of Chunwei, and I will also participate in it. I'm afraid I'm going to be busy during this time." He Xinyan couldn't stop smiling.

Young talents are full of ambitions, and there is no one who does not want to make contributions.

Ning Jin was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed, "It's not easy for my husband to get this opportunity. I have delayed you all these years. Now that the emperor can see your talent, it is not in vain that you have never slacked off for many years."

"Don't talk nonsense, I will be lucky to have you as my wife." He Xinyan hugged Ning Jin, "You gave birth to a son and a daughter for me, this life is enough."

Ning Jin's heart softened, and she hugged her husband back.

Finally, he said slowly, "Some things should not be said by me as a woman, but I can't help but remind a few words. This time, the emperor values ​​it because our He family has nothing to do with the others. Don't be confused, my husband. Since Your Majesty should only serve the Majesty when you use it, and you must not follow in the footsteps of those few families. You may look at the scenery for a while, but it will be hard to tell in the future."

He Xinyan held her hand with clear eyes.

"Madam, don't worry, if my father and I are the ones who covet glory, we won't take the initiative to ask you for it."

Speaking of this, Ning Jin's face was stained with a faint blush.

Her marriage was not ordered by the first emperor, but by Master He Dashi who asked for it on his son's behalf.

Originally, the first emperor didn't want to agree, because the He family had to use it, and once it was the owner, it would be difficult to reuse it, but He Xinyan insisted, and the scholar He begged for it for his son.

He Xinyan really likes Ning Jin, otherwise he wouldn't be disregarding his future.

All in all, everything is going well for now.

The He family can take on this important task, and because of their relationship with Ning Jin, they are loyal to Ning Chen, which is really a good move.

For the British Palace, this is not very comfortable.

My son is not a talented person, even if he can get involved, it won't be of much use.

It was also at this time that Aunt Su, who was already favored in the backyard, appeared.

Mrs. Su is a capable person. She gave birth to the second son of the Duke of England and a daughter. She is 13 years old this year, which is a good age.

Although the legitimate son is not well qualified, the concubine is surprisingly smart.

It is also for this reason that the Duke of England has favored the Su family for so many years.

"Go and send a message to the second son. This time, Chunwei must be in high school. Our Chen family has no time to wait another three years." The voice of the British prince was low.

The emperor grew up little by little, and as he got older, he was going to retire. The concubine was useless, so he had to train the concubines.

The Chen family can't have no successors. If the concubine can't become an official in high school this time, it will take another three years for the next autumn.

In three years, the emperor's power will become even stronger. At that time, the Chen family will not be able to stand firm, and their real power will inevitably be cut off.

After spending half his life planning and finally becoming a minister of the extreme, how could he be willing to be a rich and idle person.

When Chen Xianyi, the second son of the Chen family, got the news, he was having lunch with his younger sister Chen Suzhi in Aunt Su's courtyard.

After seeing off the messenger, Aunt Su smiled.

"Look, isn't this an opportunity? Whether he is the eldest son or something, as long as your father values ​​you, in the future, a certain official will have his own mansion, and he will no longer have to stay in the duke's mansion to look at them." gone."

While talking, he gave vegetables to his son and daughter.

"It's true that the Duke's Mansion is dignified, but let's not be greedy. Only by setting up a separate family can we get rid of the restraint of the wife and the son. Yi'er, my aunt knows your talents and learning. As long as you are good, my sister will be able to marry a good family in the future." .”

Aunt Su is an extremely intelligent woman, she knows the significance of a first wife and first son to a big family.

Since my son can't get any benefits in this mansion, he simply doesn't even think about it, just grow up, and get out of here when the time is right.

At that time, one can truly feel elated. As long as he does not leave the Duke's mansion for a day, his status as a bastard will always make his son overwhelmed.

"Don't worry, Auntie, my son will live up to expectations." Chen Xianyi replied in a deep voice.

Over the years, because of his intelligence, he has often been oppressed by the main house secretly, but in order to be seen by his father, he can't completely hide his clumsiness, and his life is not without hardship.

Now that he finally has the opportunity, he will not let it go.

The British Duke never thought that the concubine he had cultivated with all his strength did not inherit everything from the Chen family in the end.

Back to the present, after the chief examiner of Chunwei was appointed, news came from outside the palace that the two sons of the Chu family had arrived in the capital.

Naturally, he lives in Ye Mansion. It just so happens that Ye Zhe has not left Beijing yet, and his cousins ​​are also accompanied.

Bianzhou, where the Chu family lives, is very close to Kyoto, and the horses and horses will arrive in five or six days. It is normal to arrive in Kyoto more than a month in advance.

People who have the conditions will come in advance, and they are also familiar with the environment.

This trip to Beijing brought a lot of good things, such as a batch of gem cloth from the Western Regions, and some exquisite gadgets, so I sent a lot of them to the palace for Ye Yun.

As a gift in return, Ye Yun gave two pieces of ink and two sets of Langhao pens, in addition to two pairs of shoes and two sets of knee pads.

Chun Wei was going to stay in the Gong Yuan for three full days and three nights, but now that it was cold at night, all these things could be dispatched.

If the first two things are a serious return, the latter two are to close the distance with heart.

Sure enough, the two sons of the Chu family outside the palace received the things very well.

When people have no shortage of material things, they will pay more attention to emotions, and Ye Yun really knows how to handle it.

It's just that it's not all a show, after all, the Chu family treats her well, and they really have feelings, they just want to manage it better.
