Chapter 174: Gao Pei seeks office
Jin Shan'er asked Gao Pei for the official, in fact, she didn't discuss it with Gao Pei, because of Xiao Wangzhi's death recently, Xiao Mei'er was too sad and had been recuperating, and Xiao Mei'er asked Red Sleeves and Jin Shan'er to manage the affairs in the palace.
Red sleeves are okay, he has always been an indifferent and ambitious character, so he doesn't care about the power in the palace, and usually focuses most of his energy on his daughter, but Jin Shan'er is different, after Jin Shan'er came into contact with the power, he didn't want to let go.
Think about it every time I go to see Xiao Meier, Xiao Meier's half-dead appearance, so the ambition in my heart grows wildly, because there is a Xiao Wangzhi behind Xiao Meier, so Jin Shan'er doesn't dare to make a time, but now it's different, the Xiao family has no Xiao Wangzhi, and the biggest official is Xiao Ting, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, although Xiao Renjie is very favored now, but after all, he is only a small Shang Shulang, so Jin Shan'er didn't put it in his eyes.
And Jin Shan'er is not stupid, although she gave birth to a prince, but she does not have her mother's family to support her, at this time, even if she becomes the queen, she can't sit steadily, so at this time, Jin Shan'er wants to push her only mother's family Gao Pei to the front.
The Son of Heaven has a good impression of his cousin, and this Jin Shan'er also knows that Jin Shan'er feels that as long as his cousin enters the officialdom and does something casually, coupled with his own pillow style, maybe he will be able to enter the cabinet soon, because when he was in Goryeo, everyone did this, if Li Jun knew Jin Shan'er's true thoughts, he would definitely sneer and said: "It's really a shame to compare my Tang Dynasty with Goryeo." ”
It can only be said that Jin Shan'er's vision is still not high enough, so when Jin Shan'er found Gao Pei and told Gao Pei about the matter, Gao Pei suddenly felt that the whole world was not good, Gao Pei had been in Gantang for so long, but it was not for nothing.
There are more than 250 new science and technology scholars in Gantang, plus there are only about 500 people recommended by various nobles, and these 500 or so people have to study for three years before they can be sent officials, of which less than 50 can make up for the lack of county orders, and the rest are small officials such as the main book or the county officials, which can be seen how high Li Jun's requirements for Datang officials are.
Now that he is nothing, he will become an official, not to mention anything else, even if he enters the officialdom in the future, he will not be able to melt into the atmosphere of the entire officialdom, such an official is not interesting, and he has no intention of becoming an official in the Tang Dynasty at all, he is a Korean, of course, he has to restore the country as the first priority.
So Gao Pei decisively refused: "Princess, I understand your kindness, but you shouldn't beg Your Majesty now, especially at such a sensitive time, the old prime minister has just died, and the queen mother is overly worried, at this time, you do this, it will make Your Majesty doubt your intentions." ”
"Hmph, cousin, you are too careful, as a concubine in this palace, why can't you fight, besides, even if you don't want to be an official, you have to think about your nephew, he only has an uncle like you, if you don't care about him anymore, then who can take care of him in the future." Jin Shan'er snorted coldly.
Gao Pei sighed and said: "Since the princess has to go her own way, the minister will immediately go to see Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to take back her fate, since you are ready to help Your Highness, the minister will go to participate in the imperial examination and help Your Highness with her true skills, so that it is the most reliable." ”
"Thank you, cousin." Kim Sun-ah bowed.
Gao Pei hurriedly helped Jin Shan'er up and said, "Princess, but there is one thing you have to promise me, Your Highness must be the king of Goryeo, otherwise I'm sorry uncle." ”
Jin Shan'er nodded heavily and said: "Don't worry, cousin, Chao'er will not only be the king of Goryeo in the future, but I also want him to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty." ”
Although Gao Pei felt very ridiculous about Jin Shan'er's ambition, looking at Jin Shan'er's serious expression, Gao Pei couldn't say anything, so he had to respond: "Princess, don't worry, the minister will never let you down." ”
After saying that, Gao Pei left resolutely, Jin Shan'er looked at the back of Gao Pei's departure, and there was a feeling in her heart that she couldn't say anything, Gao Pei has always had a love for herself, this Jin Shan'er understands in her heart, but on the one hand, this person is her cousin, on the other hand, Gao Pei's scholarly spirit is too heavy, just like his father, such a person is a good person, but not a good destination.
Gao Pei left Jin Shan'er's dormitory and immediately went to Daming Palace to meet Li Jun, and he didn't even have time to visit his mother.
When Li Jun saw Gao Pei, he said coldly, "What's wrong?" I think the official position is too small, do you want to make you the first assistant of the cabinet? ”
"The student doesn't dare, the student came to see His Majesty, he wanted to ask His Majesty to take back his life, Her Royal Highness the Princess, she was impulsive, and she would ask for an official like His Majesty, in fact, the student understands in his heart that the student is not the material to be an official at all, and if the student wants to be an official, he will also see the imperial examination to get an official with his true ability, not by a woman's pillow wind." Gao Pei replied forcefully.
Gao Pei's words almost made Li Jun laugh, but if you think about it carefully, there are not many people like Gao Pei who have experienced the ruin of the country and the death of the family but can still maintain a pure heart.
So Li Jun nodded and said, "Haha, courage is commendable, then I will wait for your good news, by the way, I forgot to ask you, who is your teacher?" ”
"Confucian kings."
"Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Wang, I heard that Mr. Wang has passed away a few years ago, so if you win the imperial examination this time, how about I not only reward you, but also reward your teacher?" Li Jun said with a smile.
"Okay, Your Majesty, it's a deal."
"Haha, it's a deal."
After Gao Pei left, Li Jun frowned and thought, this matter doesn't look so simple today, because of Xiao Meier's recent decadence, it seems that Jin Shan'er has already given birth to a mind that shouldn't be, and it can't go on like this, it will not only cause palace fighting, but may also prematurely ignite the competition for the position of the prince.
Thinking of this, Li Jun was not calm, and immediately went to Xiao Meier's dormitory, and after coming to Xiao Meier's dormitory, he saw the motionless food on the table, Li Jun said angrily to the chamberlain and palace maid who served Xiao Meier: "How do you all take care of Niangniang, if Niangniang has a good one, you don't want to live." ”
"Your Majesty spares your life." A large number of people suddenly knelt on the ground.
The movement here also alarmed Xiao Mei'er, who was resting, Xiao Mei'er walked out with the support of the two palace maids, looking at Xiao Mei'er's pale face, Li Jun was even more furious, kicked the nearest chamberlain to the ground and roared: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up to the imperial dining room and ask for another meal, and I will accompany the queen to eat. ”
"No." As if they had been pardoned, they ran out in a hurry.
Xiao Mei'er came to Li Jun's side and comforted: "Your Majesty, why are you so angry?" I don't blame them, it's because the concubines themselves don't want to eat it. ”
Li Jun sighed and said: "Mei'er, I don't want to see the teacher's affairs, but you shouldn't torture yourself like this, even if you don't care for yourself, you have to think about me and Tang'er......"
Before Li Jun finished speaking, Xiao Mei'er couldn't control herself and suddenly pounced on Li Jun's body and cried......
