366 Embarrassed
Pei Jinzhen really couldn't figure out what Emperor Yonghe thought. Was it because of the previous incident, the special punishment of Yan Chong, or the test of him? Or is there something else in mind?
"Who did you mention this to your uncle?" Yan Chong's voice was cold and calm, and some anger and ridicule poured out from the corners of his eyes.
The meaning in Yan Chong's words was too obvious, and he had just specifically mentioned Xiao Qi and Ye Zhun...... Pei Jinzhen's eyes flashed, still a little incredulous, "Is it Ye Zhun?" ”
Ye Zhun was promoted to Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites a year ago, and before he was established, he was already a five-rank official. What's more, although the Ministry of Rites is not as powerful as the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Officials, it is also subordinate to the six departments, and the left and right attendants of the Ministry of Rites were all promoted after the turmoil last year, but I don't know if Emperor Yonghe has already considered it, these two are both at the age of knowing the mandate of heaven, and in less than two years, they will be able to become officials, and this position will be vacant.
Emperor Yonghe promoted Ye Zhun and put him in the Ministry of Rites, which has a deep meaning, and has to make people speculate more.
Looking at the beginning of the Liang Dynasty, there has never been an official who has been promoted so quickly like Ye Zhun. It can be seen that Emperor Yonghe trusts him.
Pei Jinzhen had speculated earlier about the reason why Xiao Qi and Yan Chong had a fight after the war, until Beidi sent a letter of peace at that time, and Xiao Qi stood on the side of the Lord and She, she was more sure of her guess.
However, Xiao Qi has always been accustomed to making superficial statements, even if Yan Chong is not in his camp, but now that Yan Chong has not publicly stood up, he will not know that he will offend Yan Chong, and he will do this, if it is not good, it will only push Yan Chong and the entire Jing'an Hou Mansion to other camps.
What's more, now that King Rong and King Fu have been degraded one after another, King Ning has been low-key, and his background is a little humble.
Now, he just needs stability.
But Ye Zhun is completely different. This person will repay his eyes, and the earlier events have made them realize this more than once.
And he is no longer afraid of offending Yan Chong in a bright way.
Even, this trick put Yan Chong in a dilemma.
"Who else but him?" Yan Chong snorted.
Pei Jinzhen's heart was a little frightened, it was really him. Ye Zhun's scheming is really terrifying.
"He said to the emperor's uncle, saying that it was me who came forward, which could better reflect the bearing of my great Liang and a great country, and of course, it would also make Beidi feel the sincerity of my Liang's peace talks. Ho! This is to take me as a vote. In front of Pei Jinji, Yan Chong finally stopped hiding it, and gradually showed two points of irrepressible anger.
Pei Jinzhen was silent for a moment before asking, "Then how did you deal with it?" "Anger is inevitable, but presumably the grounding a year ago has taught Yan Chong a lesson, and it is not in vain that he stacked up a palm-thick manuscript in that month.
"Nature is the answer. What is he Ye Zhun'an's thoughts, can I not know? I want to see me mess up and dream! Yan Chong's eyes were stained with anger.
Pei Jinzhen sighed, not to mention anything else, this matter, for Yan Chong, is really a test and a tempering.
"Can you decide when you will enter Beijing?"
This question is, of course, the Beidi Mission.
Yan Chong paused for a moment before he said, "It's almost time to reach Ningyang Pass, and I guess that before and after the release of the Spring Festival, it will be time to go to Fengjing City." Speaking of this, Yan Chong's face was a little ugly.
"I still have something to do, I'm afraid I'm going to come back late today, don't wait for me, rest early."
Yan Chong said, turned around and hurried away.
Pei Jinzhen knew that the Beidi mission was about to come to Beijing, and Yan Chong needed to deploy as soon as possible for many things. Tonight, I can't say that I have to discuss with the staff of the Jing'an Hou Mansion all night.
Pei Jinzhen couldn't do anything about these things, so he had to ask the kitchen to prepare more soup and refreshments and serve them carefully.
Although the Beidi mission came to Beijing, it was a big event, but it was not forced to come forward in the end.
And right now, there is an incident that affects the hearts of tens of millions of people in Fengjing City and even the entire Daliang.
This is the triennial spring festival.
The gate of the Tribute Courtyard was opened again, and the people who took the examination from all over the country either carried heavy boxes or baskets, or had family members to send them off, or had friends to accompany them, and there were not a few people who were alone, all of whom stepped into the gate of the Tribute Courtyard on this day.
Once they entered, the gate was closed for three days, and it was not until the end of spring that the men came out.
When the list was released, there were a few happy and a few worried.
Because Pei Jinfeng is also going to end this year, Pei Jinzhen has been preparing a few days earlier.
Although he knew that Xiao Yuan's must be well prepared, there would be no omissions. But it was as if she couldn't feel at ease if she didn't do something.
I don't know if it's because she's pregnant and extremely sensitive, the closer she gets to the exam date, the more anxious she becomes, and she is so nervous that she can't sleep.
Fortunately, it has survived to this day.
Yan Chong also saw Pei Jinfeng's nervousness, and knew that she and Pei Jinfeng were the same mother and siblings, and she was naturally concerned about Pei Jinfeng's future.
Although he didn't say anything on weekdays, on this day, he actually took leave early and accompanied Pei Jinzhen to the gate of the Gongyuan to see him off.
Seeing Pei Jinfeng, Pei Jinzhen calmed down a little, calmed down as before, and briefly explained a few words to Pei Jinfeng, asking him to relax, do his best, and so on. Holding his already bulging belly, he was supported by Yan Chong, and looked at Pei Jinfeng without returning to the Tribute Courtyard, and he couldn't see it anymore, but he still stood there and watched until the hour came. The gate of the Gongyuan was slowly closed, a big lock was hung, a seal was affixed, and a person from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division stood in front of the door with a sword in hand, and when others began to pick people up, a family like Pei Jinzhen had to walk away.
But it is also one step at a time, and it is reluctant.
"Don't worry! Those gentlemen in the Bowen Pavilion were full of praise for Brother Feng'er's article, and privately invited a few knowledgeable adults to read it, and they all said it was good. In my opinion, Brother Feng is also a stable person, as long as there are no accidents, he will definitely be able to hit it in one fell swoop this time. Yan Chong's words are not false, with Pei Jinfeng's knowledge, as long as he plays normally, Jinshi and the first should not be a problem, the difference is only in the quality of the ranking.
Hearing Yan Chong say this, Pei Jinzhen finally made up his mind.
I took a deep breath and calmed down a lot.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
She was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes, and saw that Yan Chong frowned, and the curtain was not lifted, so she asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”
"Childe, it's Xu Guard. After His Majesty's instructions, please enter the palace immediately. Luo Lin's flat voice sounded outside the carriage.
This guard surnamed Xu was a close confidant of Emperor Yonghe who was on an errand before.
Pei Jinzhen and Yan Chong glanced at each other, at this time, Emperor Yonghe urgently summoned him to Beijing, what else could he do?
When Yan Chong came out of the palace, he said to Pei Jinji, "The Beidi mission has already arrived in Fengling and Fengjing City, which is the work of three or five days. ”
