"You want to, but you also have to see if there are any catties. Situ Qiming, who had been following his sister without making a sound, suddenly interjected: "Nuanxiang Pavilion is the most famous gold cave in Chang'an City, countless famous sons have spent a lot of money in it, but none of them dare to mess around, do you know why?" Although Situ Qiming has stayed in Mobei for the past few years, he is after all the son of a family who grew up in Chang'an, and he knows more about Nuanxiang Pavilion, a very special Qinglou that has stood in the imperial capital for many years, than Tang Qingyun and Lu Yuan, who have only come to Chang'an in recent years." Don't look at the Nuan Xiang Pavilion on the surface is just an ordinary green building, it can implicate a lot of dignitaries and nobles behind it, and even heard that it is ...... with the palace."

"Ahem..."Situ Ningbing coughed violently, as if he was about to cough out his lungs, successfully interrupting Situ Qiming's words and attracting his attention. "Sister, what's wrong with you?" Situ Qiming patted Situ Ningbing's back indiscriminately to help her calm down, his face full of concern.

Situ Ningbing waved his hand and quietly pushed away Situ Qiming's hand that was about to slap himself out of internal injuries, and was about to divert the topic from the proprietor behind the Nuanxiang Pavilion, when Lu Yuan seemed dissatisfied with his words being interrupted, and slapped the table and shouted, "Don't you all... Interrupt, listen to what people say... Suddenly, he looked at everyone with a mysterious smile, "Guess... Who's that girl?"

"Wouldn't it be the woman standing behind Tian Shaofu just now?" Situ Ningbing said without thinking.

"Why did you guess it again?!" The smile on Lu Yuan's face instantly turned into consternation, and his eyes stared at Situ Ningbing like a copper bell, as if she was some kind of monster.

Situ Ningbing's face was taken for granted, "Your topics all revolve around Tian Shaofu, you just said so much irrelevant things and still have to go around Tian Shaofu in the end, what's so hard to guess?"

Hearing this, Ding Yiqing also guessed a reason, pointed at Tang Qingyun and smiled and said: "That is to say, you flirted with a Qinglou woman and taught a lesson to the good people of others! That good is Tian Shaofu's turtle son, so you are so scared to take a detour when you see him?!"

Although she guessed ** is not far from ten, but it is unbearable to be cut in public like this, even if she is an unlearned and unskilled gentleman, Tang Qingyun immediately jumped up, pointed at Ding Yiqing's nose and scolded: "Fart! Nonsense! Young master, how can I be afraid of Tian Shaofu's turtle grandson! I don't know him in the face of his brother-in-law, His Royal Highness King Wei!"

Situ Ningbing looked at him as if he had been stepped on by his tail and jumped like thunder, and he felt funny. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought that King Wei had just accepted Tian Jin, the daughter of Tian Shaofu's sister, who was the protector of the third grade, as a widow not long ago. She didn't care about it originally, but now that she thinks about it carefully, Yang Ye, the king of Wei, has always liked to associate with literati and scholars, and the people who are close to him in the court are also some civil officials, on the surface, he really looks like he is indisputable and elegant, plus he has been in charge of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department over the years, and has broken a lot of unjust, false and wrongful cases, which is very popular with the people, and there is a group of literati who are full of food and have nothing to do, and they advocate praise on the side, so they have won the reputation of "Virtuous King". There is news in the court that the official department Shangshu Feng Zunian intends to return to his hometown because of his advanced age, and the emperor naturally wants to promote the new official department Shangshu, and the official department is the head of the six departments, and has the right to assess and appoint and dismiss officials below the fourth grade, in order to balance the power, the emperor will not let the people in the eight clans get involved in this position.

Of course, due to the eight clans too many in-laws, most of the officials in the court will be more or less related to the eight clans, the current official Shangshu Feng Zunian's grandmother is from the Hongnong Yang family, although the mother is not the daughter of the eight clans, but the side branch of the Li clan in Longxi, the wife is the daughter of Zhang Zhao, a master of calligraphy and painting in this dynasty, and the eight clans are not involved, but several daughters-in-law, granddaughters and granddaughters' maiden mother-in-law are inseparable from the eight clans. The reason why the emperor chose him to be the secretary of the ministry is because this person is generous and upright, and he will neither retaliate privately nor cheat on favoritism, and secondly, although he is related to the eight major clans, he is not particularly close to any family. This has a lot to do with it, it's almost like nothing, even if you really want to sell favors, you don't know which one to sell, but because there are eight clans behind it, those people with ulterior motives want to move the ancestral thoughts and weigh whether they can afford to offend these people behind him. Therefore, Feng Zunian sat peacefully in the position of the secretary of the ministry for five years. Now that he is getting older, he is no longer competent, and it is difficult for the emperor to find another ancestor in the court, so he can only retreat to the second.

Situ Ningbing went through the officials who were qualified to serve as the secretary of the ministry in his mind, and it was really difficult to find one that met all the conditions, but the King of Wei, who was known as the "Virtuous King", was more suitable. First of all, as a prince, he is absolutely qualified to be a three-grade official secretary, and secondly, no matter what his own temperament is, he always shows a fair and strict appearance, indifferent to fame and fortune, and the most important thing is that if he becomes a minister, the power to appoint and dismiss the assessment officials is in the hands of the royal family, which has a great effect on controlling the power of the eight clans in the court. Situ Ningbing felt that no matter whether the emperor knew the true face of King Wei or not, it would not be a good move to let King Wei take over the post of secretary of the ministry in the situation of "nine out of eight surnames" of officials today.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that King Wei chose to accept Tian Yuehua as a widow, on the surface, it seemed that it was out of appreciation for Tian Shaofu, a backward talent with both civil and military skills, but in fact, his goal should be to win over Tian Shaofu's father Tian Jin and Taishan, who held half of the military power in Mobei - Huaihua General Ding Yanlong.

In recent years, the King of Wei has put a lot of effort into his reputation, and Situ Ningbing guessed that he had already planned to use the reputation of "Virtuous King" to enter the Ministry of Officials from the beginning of his entry into the Ministry of Punishment, and then use his position to install his own people in various important positions in the court to prepare for the seizure of the prince. It's just that on the one hand, in order to hide his ambitions, on the other hand, in order to accumulate fame, he interacted with civilian officials who danced and wrote ink, and there were really few military generals, let alone military power.

If he didn't have the ability to pull Yang Yi down from the throne of the crown prince, then in the end, "seizing the prince" would evolve into "seizing the throne", and at that time, the so-called "reputation" would be worthless, and military power was the key to determining the success or defeat of the king!
