But now...... For the future of her and King Zhao, she will definitely train King Zhao well. If you don't seek to become unified, even if you go to the fiefdom to be a prince in the future, you must have the ability to support it.

Concubine Tian, who left earlier than Concubine Wen's mother and son, did not rush back, but went to the pond called Qianli Pond on the east side of Taiye Pond, and asked the palace people to move some melons and fruits and refreshments, and sat quietly alone to enjoy the scenery.

Feng Xuanshi's last scream was sharper than the previous voice, this place was not far from Changxin Palace, and the sound penetrated the palace walls, leaving a vague but poignant echo in the ears of Concubine Tian. After that, everything was calm, and Feng Xuanzhi couldn't make a sound anymore.

Chu Huashang grabbed the bean green glazed porcelain plate on the table and smashed it down, and the delicate golden pumpkin cake inside rolled to the ground. The people in the palace around were so frightened that they knelt down, but Chu Huashang was no longer angry, she stood up and looked at the main palace gate of Changxin Palace not far away, where Concubine Wen and King Zhao were stepping out.

Chu Huashang smiled coldly and got up to meet him. When Concubine Wen saw her, her face showed surprise, and she said from afar: "Concubine Tian hasn't returned to the palace yet?" ”

Chu Huashang approached, and her cold expression hung from Concubine Wen to King Zhao. The corners of her lips twitched, and she said lightly: "Isn't my sister the same, lingering in the Changxin Palace!" My sister likes to watch the fish in the thousand carp pond, doesn't my sister like to watch the good show of beating people? ”

Concubine Wen glanced at her, but she was not annoyed, but said coldly: "It seems that Concubine Tian is nothing important. I'll go back first. ”

King Zhao took Concubine Wen's hand and refused to let go, he was frightened by Feng Xuan, at this time, looking at Concubine Tian's face so scared, he didn't want to stay longer. When he followed Concubine Wen and wanted to leave quickly, Chu Huashang reached out and grabbed his sleeve.

Concubine Wen and King Zhao had to stop. Chu Huashang looked at this little boy who was only seven years old and was still ignorant, and his eyes overflowed with a look that seemed to be smiling. She squatted down, stared into King Zhao's eyes, and said, "Your new concubine seems to be good to you, and she has worked hard to cultivate you." As he spoke, he laughed: "Looking at your little pale face, aren't you scared by your mother?" ”

Concubine Wen was already impatient, and stretched out her hand to brush away Concubine Tian's hand and said, "The child of King Zhao's concubine, it's not the turn of others to teach. Your Royal Highness, let's go back to Bixiao Palace, and the mother concubine will cook yam porridge for you to drink. ”

When King Zhao heard this, he nodded busily, and said with a smile: "The things cooked by the concubine are really delicious, I want to go back and eat them quickly." "Sure enough, it's still a child, and the terrifying scene just now has been forgotten.

Concubine Tian no longer stopped, and watched Concubine Wen take King Zhao's hand and go farther and farther. Behind them, Concubine Tian still stood quietly, looking at King Zhao's thin back, her voice low and mocking:

"Concubine Wen will feed and clothe you, and she will be angry for you to punish the enemy, but there is only so much she can give you."

Concubine Wen couldn't help him win over power in the court, let alone help him win the heir. And if he chooses the Chu family, what he has will be the land, soldiers and horses of the entire Huguang and Guang counties, as well as all the connections under General Chu.

Thinking of this, Concubine Tian sneered. As the eldest son of the emperor, he only saw the immediate benefits of food and clothing, and the charity that Lord Xu gave him a little bit thought was the most beautiful gift in the world.

If you don't have a spiritual child, don't do it.

After the dust settled on King Zhao's recognition of his mother, the dispute between the three concubines in the palace, Tian Concubine, Wen Gui Concubine, and Hui Concubine became more and more lively.

Now Tuoba Hong's favorite thing is nothing more than the three of them, and there is just a concubine Jing. Empress Xiao was already very depressed when she was left out in the cold, and Tuoba Hong never came to the queen after the first day of the first month of the first month, and she gradually lost her former prestige, but she did not take action. Because of the queen's depression, the palace people no longer paid attention to her, but focused more on the three concubines.

Concubine Jing's body is not yet well, and she can't sleep much. Needless to say, the most recorded in the "Tong History" in Suri are Tian Concubine and Wen Gui Concubine. These two are simply on the bar, they are both favored by the name of talented women, and because of the deepening of the grudge over the competition for King Zhao, it is really hard to say how far the two of them will get into trouble in the future.

In the never-ending waves of the harem, the winter of the ninth year of Qianwu passed in a blink of an eye. On the first day of the first month of March, the spring flowers bloomed in the Shanglin Garden, and the emperor and the queen mother enjoyed the scenery together, laughing and saying to everyone, "It's early spring."

This day also happened to be the day when the imperial examination scholars entered the palace for the examination. The emperor was in high spirits and helped the queen mother to go to the Jinluan Palace together to accept the audience of the new scholars.

Such a thing could not have been passed on to the harem, and the concubines from the clan were not very interested in those who were born in poverty and had studied hard for ten years and finally revealed the gold list. However, this year's imperial examination hall test was extraordinary, Tuoba Hong issued an order on the spot on the main hall, and named the champion of the martial arts as the deputy commander of the Beijing Soldiers and Horses, and appointed the Wenjing list as the official Langzhong, and Tanhua as the criminal department Langzhong. Among the rest of the moves, two people were appointed as the staff officers of the Jiedu envoy in the northwest town, five people were each awarded the general judgment of Chuzhou, Danyang, Zhenjiang, Beijing-Hangzhou, and Jinling, and ten people were awarded the general judgment of Huaibei and Shandong counties.

As soon as this decree spread, violent tremors spread from the palace to the capital and to the whole world. The women in the harem were all alarmed, and the concubines began to write letters and communicate with their fathers and brothers, and there were more people who secretly inquired about the government. However, after all, it is a government government, and no one dares to talk about it in the open, and there are many actions in private.

Tuoba Hong's actions have already touched the noble family of Great Qin. The selection of talents through the imperial examination seems fair, but it also has many drawbacks. All the titles of the gold list are not able to get official positions immediately, but are recommended and selected by officials in the local or capital city. For example, if there is a vacant position in the Ministry of Rites, then the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites has the right to be the master and recommend a person with official qualifications to serve.

Where is the official so easy to be, in many cases, there are not so many vacancies in various regions. And even if there is a vacancy, most of the people who are recommended are the descendants of the big families - in addition to the imperial examination, there is also a system called 'Yin En', your ancestors have made meritorious contributions and have a knighthood, and the emperor will give you the grace to let you become an official without taking the imperial examination.

Therefore, in this era, without a good background, it is difficult to be recommended as an official even if he is admitted to the imperial examination. Many people have spent their entire lives in "idle probation", and finally they can't go back to their hometown to be a teacher.

Of course, among the children of the aristocracy, there is no shortage of people with real talents and learning, according to the laws of the Great Qin, those who have knighthoods are not allowed to take the imperial examination, and can only take the "shade of grace". This is another kind of bad luck......

The imperial examination is held once a year, and according to the practice of previous years, most of these lucky people who can get official positions have to be released from the capital, and start from the Qipin County Order - this is the rule, and it is also very reasonable. Being able to read does not mean that you can be an official, and you should start from the bottom.

But with a wave of the emperor's hand, this group of rookies in the workplace ascended to the sky in one step, from the deputy commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division of the fourth grade, the sixth department of the fifth grade Langzhong and the Jiedu envoy to take charge of the staff officer, and the general judgment of the sixth grade......

The level of official quality is not enough to panic the family. The most critical problem is that the entitled lifters are all in important positions, and they are in charge of staff in Youzhou, an important town in the northwest, which is even more eye-catching than those three-grade Confucians in the Hanlin Academy. Among the two Lang of the Ministry of Officials and the Criminal Department, looking at the emperor, he meant to reuse it, and the future was immeasurable. After a few years of cultivation, maybe he will climb to the position of a squire or even a scholar......

They're all from humble families. The emperor made such a big move, where did he put the family? After a few years, these cold officials will have hardened their wings, and they will definitely fight with the clans that stand in their way.

The children of the clan started as officials from a low grade, and with this group of cold men and roadblocks on their heads, can they be smooth?

The emperor gave all the real power to this group of people, and the living space left for the family became smaller and smaller.

Many people found that the fall of the Shen family was simply the beginning. Since then, the heavens of the Great Qin Dynasty have become more and more powerful.

The palace test caused an uproar in the court, and there were not a few people who jointly begged the emperor to think twice before acting. But where is the current Tuoba Hong three years ago, he directly threw the opposition into the furnace of Jianzhang Palace, and then ordered the Minister of Military Aircraft to enter the palace to meet him. The next day, several ministers of the Military Aircraft Department fought with Confucianism in the court, and also found out a few officials who were in bad shape, cheated in the imperial examinations, embezzled, and so on.

On the third day after the palace examination, Empress Xiao in the palace sent a message to the palaces, and the emperor ordered Zhao, Wei, He, Xie, and Ren to be hired into the palace as a female gift.

Following the previous jumping of chickens and dogs, the harem was tossed by Tuoba Hong again.

From Empress Xiao to the maids, no one was happy with this news.

But Empress Xiao still sat on the throne of Changxin Palace with her body propped up, and instructed the concubines: "These five clans have all made contributions to the 'Beigong Rebellion' and the killing of the Shen family, the emperor rewarded them in this way, and the sisters must understand the emperor's hard work." After saying that, he laughed again: "Our emperor is the Shengming monarch, and the people in this harem are really not many compared to the first emperor." The five new sisters will enter the palace in a few days, most of them live in the side halls of each palace, they are all a family, you should get along well. ”

Concubine Jing and the others present really couldn't laugh. The triennial draft is already a lot of headaches, and the emperor also interjected a courtesy.

The salute is different from the draft, which is to take the girl out of her mother's house with a very grand honor guard and welcome her into the palace. Naturally, the cap is also much higher than the draft.

All the concubines sensed threatened.
