"Cai Xiaofeng? I see, hehe......" Shen Qingwan finally remembered who Cai Xiaofeng was.

Because this person later changed his name, he became much fairer after being an official all the year round, unlike now, because he is more tanned because of his work.

After his life was better, he was not as strong as he is now, and he looked even thinner, Shen Qing had not had much contact with him in his previous life, so he didn't think about it for a while.

Cai Xiaofeng was tenth on the second list in the exam of Chunqiu, because there were three people on the first list, so this term was very high.

It's just that the easiest thing for ordinary people to remember is the top three on the first list, and at most one on the second list is the first place to pass on, and it is more difficult for others to continue.

But Cai Xiaofeng has a very good relationship with Liu Qingshan, the two join forces in officialdom, and they are really a little invincible, even King Qin is obedient.

Cai Xiaofeng's family background is not as good as his cousin, there is a mother who is not in good health at home, a paralyzed father, an older sister who is still unmarried in order to provide him with education, and younger brothers and sisters, in short, a lot.

It is not easy for him to go to Beijing to catch the exam, originally he was not going to Beijing so early, and there is still half a year to go to spring, how much will it cost?

Now I came here, but it was because Shen Ziyu provided free food and lodging, and he was able to figure out the form of the capital, which was tempting.

Cai Xiaofeng and Shen Ziyu don't know each other, mainly because of his cousin Cai Jiagui's line, Shen Ziyu wants to complete his father's task, and feels that it is nothing to have one more person, but he looks down on Cai Xiaofeng from the bottom of his heart.

Cai Xiaofeng actually knows that children from poor families are very sensitive to certain visions, but he doesn't care, if he can take the exam smoothly without spending money, he can bear anything.

At dinner, facing a table of exquisite dishes, Cai Xiaofeng just ate calmly, and did not participate too much in the popular topics of everyone.

Shen Cheng obviously understood the situation, and immediately put Cai Xiaofeng aside.

Only Shen Yijia frequently enlivened the atmosphere at the banquet and brought Cai Xiaofeng with her, as if she didn't want to snub him, which made other people's eyes look at her a little weird.

Although Shen Qingwan was not there, something happened before this, that is, Shen Cheng personally came to borrow a cook for her.

Shen Qingwan was surprised, but still asked Wang Xiaoda about her wishes, if Wang Xiaoda was really unwilling, she would not be reluctant.

"Miss rest assured, as long as you don't give the little moth, the slave is still willing, after all, as a cook, making food for people to eat is a pleasure, but I need the absolute management of the big kitchen, just one meal, don't give the slave the whole thing." Wang Xiaoda said disapprerovingly.

In fact, as long as it is not for those noisy people in the Prime Minister's Mansion to eat, but specifically for the lifter, Wang Xiaoda is not so resistant in his heart.

Moreover, the father of the young lady said in person, if he refused for this, he would definitely be unpleasant, but he was just making a table, so he didn't have to care about it at all.

Shen Qingwan also saw Wang Xiaoda's thoughts, and sighed: "Actually, if you don't want to, I have a way to deal with it, don't think about it." ”

"Miss, make it for those lifters, the small ones don't hurt so much." Wang Xiaoda said sincerely, for this reason, the young lady came to ask him about his wishes, instead of directly ordering, he was so moved.

Shen Qing went back to see Shen Cheng in the evening: "Father, after all, it is the prince's person, if my father wants to use it, I will tell those subordinates to do it well, don't make any moths, if someone calculates, Wang Xiaoda said it, he will immediately put the burden on him." In addition, the reward at that time is indispensable, and it doesn't have to make people say that the prime minister is stingy. ”

Shen Cheng saw that Shen Qingwan agreed, and immediately agreed to these conditions: "That's natural, it will be arranged for my father." ”

Shen Qingwan nodded uneasily, this Shen Cheng's guarantee had no credibility at all.

In addition to Wuyuan, Aunt Liu greeted Shen Cheng: "Xiangye, how are they?" Did Miss Six agree? ”

Shen Cheng glanced at Aunt Liu: "How big is this?" The big kitchen is all watching, don't do the whole thing, otherwise people won't do it at any time, and they will be rewarded with a hundred taels afterwards. ”

After that, Shen Cheng left happily, for Shen Qingwan to give him face like this, he was like drinking a glass of ice water in summer, and he was comfortable!

Aunt Liu was stunned for a long time, and she vomited so much that she couldn't do it.

She will persuade Shen Cheng to borrow the cook, she must want to take advantage, on the other hand, she also wants to hold the reception banquet properly, give the prime minister's face to the minister, and make the old lady and the prime minister less dissatisfied with her.

At the level of her own cook, Aunt Liu still has a little concept, how many things can a person with nepotism be able to get her hands on?

Especially before the draft, the banquet held by the Prime Minister's Mansion had a very low evaluation, which made Shen Cheng very faceless for a while.

Therefore, Aunt Liu didn't dare to take Qiao, after all, others would not follow her ideas, and if it was not delicious, it would definitely be belittled.

Who knew that Shen Cheng would reward one hundred taels of silver with one mouth? It's really when the silver of the Prime Minister's Mansion is blown by the wind, and he opens his mouth to say that it's simple, but have you ever thought about how difficult it is for her?

Aunt Liu turned around and went to the big kitchen, her eyes were red, and she vented for a while when she caught someone, but no one dared to stumble with Ambassador Wang Xiao.

What happened near Wuyuan, Shen Qingwan naturally knew everything clearly, and immediately understood who instigated Shen Cheng to come, and said to Wang Xiaoda who left after being amused: "This is an opportunity to go out and earn extra money, one hundred taels, remember to ask Aunt Liu for it afterwards, that is what Xiangye has opened." ”

Wang Xiaoda's eyes narrowed with a smile: "Yes, miss." ”

His salary is only three taels a month, and he has a reward on weekdays, and ten taels are very generous, such as his own lady.

This shot is a hundred taels? Wang Xiaoda said that he had never met him, and it was almost enough for him to work for three years, which was really an unexpected windfall!

When Wang Xiaoda came back, Shen Qingwan was a little surprised when he saw the one hundred taels of silver tickets handed in front of him, took it and looked at it, and saw that Wang Xiaoda was sincere in handing it in, so he smiled and said: "Since your aunt rewarded you, you can take it, my father doesn't know that money is not easy to earn, and Aunt Liu is afraid that it will hurt for several days. ”

If you calculate it like this, you can know how ridiculously expensive the signature dishes and wine of Zuixian Mansion are, and ordinary people can't afford to consume them at all.

Wang Xiaoda was also surprised, did he really give him all this hundred taels?

"You take it, it's your ability to have the opportunity to let Aunt Liu pay for the silver." Shen Qingwan chuckled: "If there is such an opportunity in the future, if you don't make money, you won't make it for nothing." ”

Wang Xiaoda rubbed his hands, then took the silver ticket, thinking about going back to pull two good cloths for his daughter-in-law and mother-in-law, buy more good pen, ink, paper and inkstone for his son, and save more silver to marry his daughter-in-law in the future.

Sent away Wang Xiaoda, whose eyes lit up, Shen Qingwan couldn't help but laugh, contented people are always happy, and they unexpectedly got a hundred taels, but Wang Xiaoda was so happy that his eyes were gone.

"Needless to say, Wang Xiaoda must be thinking about how to go back to surprise his daughter-in-law and buy some good things to please her daughter-in-law." Mama Ye couldn't help laughing: "Miss doesn't know, Wang Xiaoda's daughter-in-law is well-known in the palace, although many people ridicule it, but they are also envious from the bottom of their hearts." Women are envious of Wang Xiaoda's wife, and men are envious of Wang Xiaoda's daughter-in-law, and many people don't even have a daughter-in-law. ”

Shen Qingwan was also envious: "It's not a shame to love your daughter-in-law, and a man who looks for a sense of superiority in a woman may not be a real man." ”

Mama Ye nodded: "Isn't it?" Some men think they are proud, but they are just squeezing and grinding women at home, which is not a good thing. ”

"Miss, what day is this going to the palace? In a few days, it will be the Chinese Valentine's Day, and the capital will be very lively, I don't know if the lady will be in the capital at that time? Mu Tao was packing up the laundry and muttered.

"It shouldn't be there, Qixi will be in the palace, it doesn't matter, if you don't go, I'll give you some silver, and when the time comes, you can go out to play, pay attention to safety." Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows, thinking that the palace should be almost ready, and it would take a few days to set off.

Thinking of the quiet of the Chen family in the past few days, Shen Qingwan couldn't help but think thoughtfully, feeling that Cai Xiaofeng in his previous life had finally left the Prime Minister's Mansion, otherwise, the results would definitely be regarded as a guest of honor by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he would not become an enemy later.

So what exactly did you leave? In this life, Shen Yijia will definitely try her best to keep it, she has to watch closely, and she is ready to insert a lever at any time.

Shen Qingwan thought about it, and couldn't help but feel that it was a correct determination to leave the Chen family behind, it must be a very good-stirring stick.

Shen Qingwan was so confused that she didn't notice that Mama Ye was a little stunned when she heard the word Qixi.

When Shen Shen was quiet, Shen Qing had already gone to bed at night, and only opened his eyes when there was no one in the room: "Phantom, are you still there?" ”

A figure jumped down from above: "What's the matter, junior sister can't sleep and wants to chat with me?" ”

Shen Qingwan put her index finger to her lips: "Shhh, be quiet, there are some things that can't be heard by others." ”

What she has to do can't let others know, and neither can the king of Chu, first, she can't explain it clearly, and second, it's a big matter.

Gu Huan immediately slowed down his movements and sat on the side of Shen Qingwan's bed: "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "Have you trained all my secret guards?" ”

"Yes, if you want to use it, it's okay, but seeing that you're useless, let them continue to practice, martial arts, don't practice hands." Gu Huan said in a low voice: "However, the qualifications of this group of people are really good, they have been a little delayed before, recently I have been inspired, and I have time to find some orphans and beggar children in training." ”

Shen Qingwan was surprised, she didn't expect Gu Fantasy to be so far, and she originally said when she would remind her: "Is there enough silver?" Don't remember to ask me for it. ”

It is not easy to train yourself, and it is not easy to become a climate.

"That's natural, what's the matter with you?" This atmosphere made Gu Huan feel nervous involuntarily.

"Draw a few ordinary-looking and elegant people to come out, I am useful, it is the kind of life, and I have a particularly knowledgeable feeling." Shen Qingwan didn't want Shen Ziyu to really become Ling Qi's youngest champion.

But the exam papers and test questions are now out and sealed.

If he wanted to change the minds of the emperor and ministers, Shen Qingwan felt that he didn't have that ability or influence, so he had to find another way.

Gu Fan nodded: "Okay, there is." ”

There are not only women in this batch of secret guards, but men account for eighty percent, and Shen Qingwan's requirements are not difficult to meet.

"Give them silver, preferably disguised, so as not to be recognized in the future, go to No. 18 Osmanthus Lane in Nancheng, and forge a famous identity." Shen Qingwan said lightly.

"Forgery?" Gu Huan was surprised, the crime of forging a fame was very serious.

"Don't worry, it's just to do things, and you don't want to do it after you finish it, so it's best to be easy to pass. This matter requires a meritorious status to be easy to do, and it is not really an official anyway. Shen Qingwan sneered, since someone specializes in forgery, there is a market need, and it doesn't hurt for her to take advantage of it.

"And then?" Gu Huan didn't ask much, although she was very curious about how Shen Qingwan knew that someone in that place was doing something fake?

If you falsify your fame and identity, as long as it is not a serious matter within the system, it is not easy to debunk.

To put it bluntly, take it back and pack it, you can get a basket of envious eyes, as long as it does not involve tax exemption or other things related to the official family, it is not easy to see.

"Then, let them disperse and go to the villages around the capital to spend the night, preferably in a deliberately hidden, inconspicuous place, and live for the time being, waiting for my orders." Shen Qingwan's preliminary plan has taken shape, but it needs to be perfected, and the details will be considered, anyway, there is still some time.

The autumn exam is at the beginning of August, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and now it is just early July, and there is still a lot of time to arrange.

In the final analysis, making a big fuss is a matter of losing one's head, and Shen Qingwan needs to be more careful not to let people catch the handle.

Fortunately, the kings were not in the capital at that time, which made Shen Qingwan feel a lot more relieved.

What he knew in his previous life and only found out in this life, Shen Qingwan felt that there were several people in the prince, and it was really difficult to avoid them all.

Gu Fan nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”

"Well, you can also put some people in the capital, and then there is the National Temple, in short, the more people you choose, the better." Shen Qingwan squinted his eyes and picked a few of the most capable ones, and the task of the others was to confuse the public.

The National Temple is also a very good place for guests, every time there are a lot of people who live in the National Temple, the environment is elegant, and you can meet the powerful as soon as you go out, and then make friends logically, so the price of the place in the National Temple is not cheap, and you have to have the rich and powerful people to live in.

It is said that the previous host of the National Temple has built a champion building because the guests of the National Temple have a champion, and as long as you spend money, you can live in it, first come, first live.

Of course, that's a lot more expensive than the best inns in the capital.

Shen Qingwan had to admire the business acumen of the previous host, so the National Temple was another place of concentration, and she had to consider it.

Gu Huan nodded, and waited for a while to see that Shen Qingwan didn't continue to add, so he took advantage of Shen Se to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shen Qingwan thought about it, and then fell asleep again.

The courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion is close to the outer courtyard, and there are many rooms in the Luohua Pavilion, which is more than enough for six scholars.

In this regard, Aunt Liu thought that it was her son's business, and soon sent a maid to serve.

Duan Xiyuan's nose heard the incense on the maid's body, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy, and the pimple he had with Shen Ziyu two days ago also dissipated a lot.

Seeing that the maid was making her bed, Duan Xiyuan's heart was hot, and she immediately leaned in: "This sister, it's so fragrant!" ”

Begonia's face turned red, obviously a little unbearable, not afraid of people playing hooligans, just afraid of scholars playing hooligans with culture, that kind of suave temperament, where can the general courtyard maid bear it?

"Childe, don't talk nonsense." Begonia stood beside the bed, a little shy.

Haitang was originally a person from Aunt Liu's yard, and she knew how much she was sent over.

Moreover, as a maid who can't see the future, I also hope to marry a scholar, and if I am in high school, I can have a good way out.

Not to mention that these people themselves are lifters, if they are really married, but they are lifters, for the maid, it is really a good way out that they can't look forward to.

Duan Xiyuan has read countless women, and she can know what she thinks when she looks at Begonia, and she is a little disdainful in her heart: "How can I talk nonsense, is it really fragrant, speaking of which, the one at today's banquet is your second girl?" ”

As soon as he thought of Shen Yijia's holy and clean face, Duan Xiyuan felt extremely itchy.

"Yes, the second girl was given to King Qin as a concubine, and I am afraid that she will not stay long in the Prime Minister's Mansion." Begonia didn't notice the man's thoughts, and muttered a few words.

As soon as he heard that Shen Yijia was King Qin's concubine, Duan Xiyuan's feeling instantly extinguished, and he suddenly felt bored.

There is a person who has been given a marriage by holy decree, and he still has self-knowledge and does not dare to move, not to mention that the other party is still the prince of Qin.

"What about Miss Six? I heard that Miss Six is the concubine? Duan Xiyuan suddenly thought of the little woman he saw at the door, and that body didn't seem to have grown yet!

As far as those facial features are concerned, they are even more beautiful than the second girl after they grow up.

Duan Xiyuan is naturally a little cautious, his family background is actually not much better than Cai Xiaofeng, but he has a good face, and he is most afraid that others will scold him for being poor.

Therefore, in the outer section of the West Garden, it is very bright, even his classmates do not know that his family is very poor, his family itself is far away, and he is the only one in the whole village, and he has entered the first academy in the world, so there is no one around who is familiar with his family situation.

This has been a secret for many years, and Duan Xiyuan is desperate to improve the current situation of life.

On the surface, he agreed to Shen Ziyu to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion because of wooing, but in fact, his family has nothing to sell, which is not enough to support him to come to Beijing for the exam, let alone come decently.

Shen Ziyu's invitation, it was simply sleepy and someone sent a pillow.

Therefore, Duan Xiyuan, who couldn't listen to others saying that he was poor, only gave Shen Ziyu a cold face for two days, but he was still "persuaded" by Peng Hua from Tongfu County.

To put it bluntly, Duan Xiyuan had the idea of climbing high branches from the beginning, and he thought he still had a good face.

Not to mention their village, their county seat is the prefecture and county where the first academy in the world is located, and his face is invincible against women.

Seeing Shen Yijia's amazement at first sight, Duan Xiyuan's throbbing was still hidden in his heart, who knew that he was a master.

Immediately, Duan Xiyuan thought of Miss Yan, that is better than a concubine!

Originally, Duan Xiyuan didn't know, and thought that Shen Yijia was dressed so noble that she was a concubine, but who knew that when she had dinner at night, she realized that the inconspicuous one was Miss Yan.

Along the way, Shen Ziyu didn't say much about the Xiangfu, and others were not easy to ask, so he made it clear when he entered the mansion.

Everyone also knew that Shen Ziyu turned out to be a concubine, the only one who was valuable, and there was only one son in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
