Chen Hong thought that the Yongju just now was a very rare and wonderful poem, which could be regarded as a swan song, but when he heard this poem again, his smile turned into seriousness, and he asked in a deep voice: "Ning Mo, what do you think?" ”

Chen Ningmo sighed faintly, although she didn't want to admit it, she still said very pertinently: "If these two poems are really made by Cui Wenqing himself, this person can be a poetry genius." ”

Chen Hongshen nodded sympathetically, frowned and said: "The reason why Wang Aiqing wants to recommend Cui Wenqing in front of me is not because of Cui Wenqing's literary talent, but because of his outstanding political ability. ”

Chen Ningmo has always cared about the affairs of the imperial court, and when he heard this, he suddenly realized, and sighed lightly: "At the beginning, Wei Chen felt that with his ability, he couldn't think of such a whimsical method, but he didn't expect it to be Cui Wenqing's attention, it seems that this person does have some ability, and it is really not simple." ”

"Not only that," Chen Hong tapped the desk with the folding fan in his hand, and said in an accentuated tone, "Even the welfare lottery used by the imperial court to raise money for disaster relief is also mentioned by Cui Wenqing to Fu Bi, which made Fu Bi's cottage suddenly open, so that there is such a way to make money, according to conservative estimates, every year this welfare lottery alone can receive 30 million taels for the treasury." ”

Hearing this, Chen Ningmo's mouth opened slightly, and he took a breath of cool air, obviously betting on the number reported by Chen Hong.

Thirty million taels! What a concept is that, which is almost equivalent to a quarter of a year's income.

Although I heard that the welfare lottery proceeds are half of the method of the imperial court and the local government, it is still very shocking that the imperial treasury can generate an extra 10 million taels of income every year.

And these incomes are not just for one year, as long as they are planned properly and there are no major mistakes, I believe that there will be more income than this every year in the future.

As if the shock to Chen Ningmo was not enough, Chen Hong continued to speak: "Not only that, not long ago, Zhe Zhao also proposed to the imperial court to relocate the victims of Jiangnan Province to Fuzhou for resettlement, and the resettlement center must be supported, and all the expenses along the way are borne by the Governor's Mansion of the Zhenwu Army. ”

Chen Ningmo knew about this, but he didn't know that it was Cui Wenqing who came up with the solution, and the look on his pretty face gradually changed to solemnity.

On the other hand, Sima Tang on the side, although his face was as usual, he seemed to be listening carefully, but in fact, his heart was already full of shock.

Only now did he know that Cui Wenqing was so remarkable that the official family and Wang Xianggong paid special attention to him.

After finishing speaking, Chen Hong sighed lightly and said: "I believe you also know Wang Aiqing's personality, if Cui Wenqing is not a great talent, how can he be in his respectful eyes?" And for the first time in his life, he asked me to ask for Cui Wenqing to be a student for next year's imperial examination, and now that my words are finished, I only ask such a student, do you want to accept it? ”

The moment the words fell, Sima Tang was suddenly startled and looked at Chen Ningmo, his eyes flashing with a complicated luster.

"Close!" Almost without the slightest hesitation, Chen Ningmo had already answered categorically.

The moment he heard this clear byte, Chen Hong showed a relieved smile, while Sima Tang overflowed with a wry smile and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

After saying the decision, Chen Ningmo's solemn expression was suddenly relieved, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and the smile on his pretty face was as beautiful and moving as an epiphany: "Official, in fact, no matter who recommended Cui Wenqing, no matter what his knowledge, conduct, and personality are, just this person can rely on his own talent to generate income for the imperial court and save the victims of Jiangnan Road from fire and water, and he deserves to be my Chen Ningmo's student, so I accepted this person, and I will definitely cultivate it wholeheartedly, and strive to make him enter the Shi and the first place in the coming year." ”

"Well, with Ning Mo's words, I will be relieved." To achieve the purpose of this trip, Chen Hong was in a good mood and couldn't help laughing.

When Chen Hong left, Sima Tang was afraid that Chen Ningmo would ask about the reason for his insincerity just now, so he also said goodbye and left.

Suddenly, there was only this peerless and beautiful female bachelor left in the main hall.

She let out a deep breath of turbidity, paced around the main hall a few times, suddenly turned around and sat back a few times before the pen was polished, and then she worked hard to write, and after half an hour, a letter was successfully prepared.

After the writing was completed, Chen Ningmo dried the ink on the rice paper, and then folded it in half and put it into the envelope, and then called the officials in the Guozi Prison and ordered in a deep voice: "Quickly send this letter to the Governor's Mansion of the Zhenwu Army, and ask the Governor of the Zhenwu Army to read it in person." ”

"No." The official clenched his fists, took the envelope handed by Chen Ningmo, turned around and hurried away.

After the officials left, Chen Ningmo walked out of the main hall and walked alone under the willows by the pool, long and graceful, white clothes better than snow, graceful and graceful, just like the celestial man wandering in the beautiful scenery.

With the slow lotus steps, Chen Ningmo kept thinking in his heart.

The reason why Sima Tang's evaluation of Cui Wenqing is inconsistent, she has probably guessed the answer.

You must know that Sima Tang has never forgotten his old feelings for Zhezhao, and when he sees his husband Cui Wenqing, who is Zhezhao, how can he maintain a fair heart?

In any case, he will look at Cui Wenqing with a hint of criticality, how can he keep the results of the investigation accurate?

At first, I wanted Sima Tang to go and untie this knot, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was self-defeating and almost delayed the big thing.

Speaking of which, it's no wonder that Sima Tang is too rash in this matter.

Moreover, in her opinion, Sima Tang's evaluation of Cui Wenqing's frivolous behavior and perverse words is quite pertinent.

A character who even did not hesitate to clash with Fuzhou in order to bring a few Qinglou women into the poetry collection, this is not frivolous behavior, what is perverse speech?

Besides, he had a few brain teasers that made people completely confused, and he showed off in front of her, and he was angry enough at that time, and he was even more frivolous.

However, since she, Chen Ningmo, has promised the official family to accept Cui Wenqing as a student, then Cui Wenqing's shortcomings, she will also try her best to change.

With the righteousness of Confucianism and the way of Confucianism, he corrected his speech and demeanor, and then taught him the principles of learning the scriptures and righteousness, but also taught him the principles of life, so as to live up to the trust of the officials.

Thinking of this, Chen Ningmo felt high morale and full of confidence, and he believed that Cui Wenqing would definitely be able to pass next year's imperial examination smoothly under her cultivation.
