Chapter Seventy-One: Three Pounds of Old Blood (Asking for Pink)

Cui Kuang smiled and dodged, "Second sister, have you helped me take a look at Pei Jiu?"

"I'll go and see it tomorrow, why are you yelling and yelling so much, or you will go with me to see it?" Cui Ning said.

Cui Guan touched his chin, "You know how it feels like to be close to home, right?"

"I don't understand. "Cui Ning doesn't understand what's so good about looking at a girl?

"Well, I shouldn't have a little hope for you. Cui Kuang shook his head, "Anyway, you can help me take a look first, if it's crooked, you can tell me first, I'm a little mentally prepared." ”

"Oh. Cui Ning didn't bother to care about his messy things, and asked in a different way, "Do you know about the Heavenly Prison?"

Cui was stunned for a moment, "Why did you remember to ask this?"

Cui Ning said, "When I came back, I was in the carriage of the Huntian Prison girl, and I didn't know where to go at night. ”

"Could it be that you are considering taking the Hun Tianjian exam?" Cui Kuang lay down on the Hu bed, like an uncle, "If it is, quickly break this thought." ”

Cui Ning sat back again, "Why?"

Cui Guo paused, "Most of the people who take the Hun Heavenly Prison are from the Yixue family, and there are exceptions, but they will definitely not recruit students with family power." ”

"Tell me more about it. Cui Ning guessed that these things would definitely not be seen in the history books, and it was difficult for her to ask around, so asking Cui was the best choice.

"Hun Tianjian's original name is Taishi Eunuch, specializing in fortune and fortune, it turns out that when the Tang Dynasty was still surnamed Li, Li Er was the ancestor, advocating Taoism, the power of Taishi Jian is very strong, and the post of Taishi Ling is often held by the Taoist family, and he is very favored by the saints. It is said that the Taishi of the Taizong period ordered the night to watch the sky. Glimpse the heavenly opportunity, write on the wall 'The dragon has rain, Ze is the common people, the emperor is the third generation, the Wu Dynasty Li Xing', and then sat down that night and soared. After Taizong saw the prophecy, he was furious and killed the famous general Li Junxian for this. ”

Taizong didn't think of the Wu clan at that time. However, one is that the Wu clan is not close to the center of power; the other is that the Wu family is not strong enough to threaten the imperial power; Wu Tutong is a meritorious man who followed Taizong to open the Tang Dynasty, before that, he sold tofu and firewood, made a fortune and became a businessman, and later followed Taizong to make great contributions, and after Taizong ascended the throne, he finally became the governor of Jingzhou; The samurai family had many daughters. Only one son is not very promising, and the Wu family slowly declined after Wu Tutong; finally, Wu Tutong and Taizong were monarchs and ministers, and they were also friends. Taizong trusted him very much.

Based on so many of the above. Taizong believes that the "Wu" in Taishi Ling's prophecy may not be a surname. It just so happened that at that time, among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, only Li Junxian had the ability to usurp power. Li Junxian was born in the Li family, and he was quite valued by Taizong, and he made great achievements at a young age. became a general, his hometown was Wu'an County, and his title was Marquis of Wu'an.

Wu Tutong is also a very far-sighted person, when Taizong was there, he also knew his loyalty, and he remembered the old feelings to measure the reason why he could not have rebelled, but the next monarch would not necessarily think so much, in case he didn't let go of the mistake, the entire Wu clan couldn't be saved, so just a month after Taizong's death, he pursued the first emperor because of grief and injury.

After his death, the martial arts family completely stayed away from the political stage, and Wu Meiniang, as the concubine of Taizong, was often accompanied by the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha from then on.

However, no one could have imagined that this language would eventually be fulfilled and should be applied to a woman.

Because of this period of time, how can the empress like Taoism? However, she stayed in the Buddhist temple for a period of time, and felt that the Buddha blessed her from the disaster, and from then on she was more inclined to believe in Buddhism, and after she took power, she began to preach Buddhism, and after ascending the throne, she supported Buddhism even more, building Buddhist temples and repairing Buddha statues everywhere.

Cui said, "Your Majesty probably feels that although the Taoist is not suitable for her, after all, the prophecy has been fulfilled, and there should be a god on the head, so she still retains the Taishi Ling, but changes its name to Hun Tianjian." Think about it, with such a period of time, how embarrassing and sensitive is the situation of the Heavenly Prison?"

"That's true. Cui Ning sighed, here is the same as the place where she is, Taoists are struggling to survive, but this is not to blame anyone, faith is a thing that changes with the change of regime, it is common for things to rise and fall from time to time, Taoism also has brilliant times, at that time, Buddhism was also struggling to survive?

Seeing that she was quite emotional, Cui Guo wondered, "What are you worried about?"

"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. That's all too true. Cui Ning thought, I hope that she is in Hedong with her master today, and she can go to Hedong one day.

"Inexplicable. Cui was also melancholy, "Too stupid and sad, too smart and sad, how good it would be for you to say a little even." ”

"You can make a face!" Cui Ning really has never seen such a narcissistic person, "Pei Jiuniang may be even more stupid, see what you will do then!"

"Impossible!" Cui said, "Pei Jiu is a smart kid at first glance, and he can grow up like the eldest sister at the worst." ”

The genius Cui Guo could never have imagined at this time that Cui Ning would become a prophecy, the "smart child" he was optimistic about was simply stupid and cute, and he spit out three catties of old blood, but he was as proud as he was, and he had to go down on his knees on the road he chose, and the person he chose...... was stupid to death, and he had to take her hand to the end.

At that time, Cui Kuang often said: Think about my second sister is really smart.

What Cui Ning often said to him was: Heavenly Principle Cycle, retribution is unpleasant.

This is all an afterthought, and now Cui Kuang is still holding good expectations for the future, and he is busy preparing for the imperial examination.

Cui Ning didn't bother her anymore, and after dinner, she went back to think about her future carefully.

Lying on the bed, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the examination of female officials was a good way out, whether it was useful to find the magic knife or not, at least she could get a certain amount of freedom, she was clothed and fed from the Cui family, and she wanted to use her connections in the future, and there was nothing to repay, since the door of the big family was built up by the lives of many people, then let her add a trivial stroke to this high door!

As for doing business, it was much easier to get the freedom to move than it is now.

The two-pronged approach will be more difficult and tiring, but Cui Ning feels that she has no easy qualifications, she should not have been wasted in the first few years, and she should redouble her efforts to make up for it in the future!

After thinking it through. After breakfast the next day, Cui Ning told her grandfather about it.

"Female officer?" Cui Xuanbi was silent for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay." ”

If his wife was born now, what kind of brilliant life would it be? He also wanted to know, "In this case, you must not slack off in your studies, I heard that in addition to going to the academy now, you are also studying with the Fu family boy, be more serious, he will help you enter the office." ”

Cui Ning asked. "Grandfather. Isn't Fifth Brother Wei good?"

"Xiao Wu of Wei Sacrifice Restaurant?" Cui Xuanbi shook his head, "He is naturally smarter than others, although he is too sharp in the officialdom, but with his intelligence and acumen, he can avoid danger. It's a skill that is hard for others to learn. You have to learn the way of being an official. Fu Changgeng is better. ”

Fu Yuan's qiē was taught by Fu Xiang, and since entering the court, his performance has been very good, and he is even better than Fu Yuan.

"It's just that the Fu family kid follows the Fu Xiang. The methods are inevitably treacherous and ruthless, and you don't have to learn that. Cui Xuanbi groaned, "I will also teach you when I have time, stay for two years to get old, and I will be at home, just to teach you and the situation." ”

"Doesn't grandfather wait for the younger brother to enter the dynasty and become stable before saying goodbye?" Cui Ning asked.

Cui Xuanbi smiled, "There are so many people in our Cui family in the court, and they will do their best to help each other, no different from when I was there." ”

Cui Ning muttered, "The little brother also said that after you retire, it will be difficult for him to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

"I can't retreat, the Cui family's door is here, how can it be difficult? It's just that it is inevitable that I will be picked by other families, and I can't marry whoever I want. ”

The marriage between the families is very realistic, the family is on the one hand, but also depends on the future development of your branch, if the successor is weak, no matter how high your family is, people will not marry you if they have a good girl.

With Cui Xuanbi's support, Cui Ning put a heart in her stomach, "Which one does my grandfather think I should take the exam?"

Cui Xuanbi asked rhetorically, "What are you optimistic about?"

Cui Ning hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "I want to take the examination for the Supervision Department, but I don't know much about the three provinces and six departments." ”

"There are a lot of female officers in the Supervision Department, and it is relatively easy to get in. Cui Xuanbi thought about it seriously, "It's just that it's hard to have a future." ”

The Supervision Department is independent of the three provinces and six ministries, and is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor. It sounds very majestic, but in fact, it is just the eyes and ears of the emperor, and the work he usually does is to assist the three provinces and six ministries, even if he is the chief of the supervision department, he only has four products, and he has almost no real power in his hands.

It's not much, offending people, and you can't really do some practical things, the only advantage is that you can use the emperor's prestige to fake the tiger's might, and you can bluff people on face.

Truly ambitious people don't choose to go to the Inspectorate.

The female officials who have been admitted to the Supervision Department have never sat in a position of real power, and they are basically assigned to do some work such as transcribing and archiving files because of the meticulousness of women.

And unless someone like Wei Qian has a strong ability to handle cases, and no one can ignore his existence, even if they are male officials, most of them have a bleak future. And once Wei Qian makes achievements in solving the case, it is very likely that he will be transferred out of the Supervision Department and go to a position more suitable for him to shine.

After Cui Xuanbi's explanation, Cui Ning's heart to take the supervision department is not so firm, if she wants to spend all her time copying the dossier, it is better to kill her.

The official position she wants to take is to be able to walk around, it doesn't matter how hard it is, the important thing is to be able to get a lot of information, relatively free, and also give her the opportunity to find the divine sword.

It seems that there is still a need for a long-term view.

Cui Xuanbi saw her pondering, so she didn't say more, and left her to think for herself for the time being.

After eating, Cui Ning realized that the time was not early, and hurriedly went out to the academy.

When they arrived at the fork in the road, they met Hu Min, and the time was pressing, so the two did not get out of the car, but only said hello in the car.

Out of Fang City, the carriage began to hurry.

After getting out of the car in front of the academy, Cui Ning walked briskly forward and asked, "Why are you so late?"

"Hi, I forgot the time when I listened to the corner at home. Hu Min said.

Cui Ning smiled, "What have you heard?" (To be continued......
