Song Menghua: At the beginning, ask to marry Sheng Minglan

"Now the court is against you being the No. [-] scholar."

"No matter who you change, I'm afraid they will have the same attitude as Zeng Gongliang and the others."

"Or...the people like Zhang Fangping are willing to fight against the imperial court for you?"

to be frank.

Zhao Zhen didn't think Zhang Fangping and Cai Xiang would come forward.

Those of them will never take the initiative to get involved in such things as court disputes.

but don't want to-

Qi Heng said directly: "Xiao Qinyan."

"He presides over the review of the palace examination papers as the magistrate of the Eastern Mansion, regardless of his qualifications or reputation, it is enough."

Zhao Zhen frowned suddenly.

"Will he be willing?"

"His superior position was originally due to the contributions of Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo."

"How could he... fight against them?"

Qi Heng has a plan in mind.

"I think he will."

"Officials, think about it, nowadays, almost everyone thinks that Xiao Qinyan took advantage of it, and with the support of Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo, he was able to take the position."

"Although it is true."

"But for a ruler under heaven, isn't this a kind of humiliation?"

"In other words."

"He is in charge of the Eastern Mansion and wants to implement his ruling philosophy in the court. He urgently needs to get rid of the influence of Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo and establish his own prestige."

"The so-called three fires for a new official to take office."

"Sooner or later, he will alienate Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo."

"This opportunity, with your support, he probably won't refuse."

The reason is very simple.

As soon as Qi Heng finished speaking, Zhao Zhen immediately understood.

It must be admitted that this kid's grasp of people's hearts is amazing.

At the same time.

He seems to have grasped another layer of things.

He fixedly looked at Qi Heng, keeping his expression on.

"Then besides Xiao Qinyan?"

"One is not enough, there must be at least two assistant examiners."

Qi Heng smiled.

"Sima Junshi."

"To tell the truth from the officials, I happened to meet him at Zhang Xiang's mansion this afternoon."

"Because of Di Qing, he is willing to be fair and straightforward in this matter."

Zhao Zhen stopped talking.

Of course Sima Guang knew, Pang Ji's favorite student.

Smashing a vat at the age of seven caused a sensation all over the world, in terms of fame, it must be enough.

Even if he has served in various places in recent years and has no qualifications in the Bianjing Center, but he has Pang Ji behind him, who dares to say that he lacks qualifications?

You know, Pang Ji was a privy envoy and the Grand Minister of the Western Mansion.

……

He was silent for a long time.

The palace lanterns in Qinzheng Hall were flickering and dark, and no one knew what he was thinking.

a long time.

He suddenly looked at Qi Heng, and asked faintly: "You've already made it, don't you?"

"You said at the beginning that it doesn't matter, and you won't fight...just fooling me?"

"Why are you like this?"

For an instant.

Qi Heng's eyes suddenly flustered.

He was embarrassed as if his lie had been exposed.

The actor-level performance was staged vividly at this moment.

"The official family..."

He faltered, not daring to admit it.

Zhao Zhen sighed deeply.

He frowned tiredly.

"Why play your little mind with me?"

"You think you can fool me?"

"Yuan Ruo."

"Since you planned to attack Cheng Wuhou and Ping Nanbo, you planned to use this matter to drive Zeng Gongliang and others out of the palace examination."

"Then let Xiao Qinyan and Sima Guang replace them."

"The plan is linked together."

"You have already planned."

"But why won't you tell me the truth?"

"Don't I want you to be aboveboard, the name of the number one scholar?"

"Or... you don't even want to believe me?"

"I do not have!"

"I'm not!"

Qi Heng came up with a set of denials.

Again.

In addition to loyalty, the most important thing for the superiors to control is whether they can be firmly in control.

Before his wings are not strong enough, he must also make Zhao Zhen think that he can control all his psychology.

So occasionally lie to him.

Being directly exposed by his 'clearness' will undoubtedly strengthen his confidence and make him feel more at ease.

"What do you say."

"Why didn't you tell me straight from the start?"

Zhao Zhen raised his chin slightly, looking as arrogant as you kid still trying to fool me.

Qi Heng hesitated.

It took a long time before he raised his neck as if he was going all out.

"I can't do it either!"

"Officials, you judge."

"Why did they take away my title of number one scholar?"

"Is it because I don't know enough? Or am I really inferior in writing?"

"If that's the case, I will admit it!"

"But that's not the case!"

"They... just don't want me to be your right-hand man!"

"How could I swallow my anger?"

"To me, what they have done is tantamount to banditry. What they stole is the fame that should belong to me!"

"I've never been like this!"

"When you meet a Buddha, you offer incense, when you meet a thief, you draw your sword!"

Zhao Zhen was taken aback, somewhat surprised by Qi Heng's violent reaction.

But immediately, he shook his head and smiled: "So you really have a series of plans from the beginning?"

·····Ask for flowers····

"So you really won't let it go?"

"now it's right."

"I wondered just now, why did you suddenly change your temper, and you have learned to hold back."

"turn out to be……"

"But what can you and I not say?"

Qi Heng's aura didn't ease up at all.

"Official, you told me a long time ago that these gentlemen in the court are all your humerus ministers, the pillars of the country."

"It's also said that their magnanimity... there is no doubt about it."
