Chen Qing didn't hesitate for long, so he accepted the invitation of the stranger in front of him and sat next to him......

Deep down in his heart, he wanted to go to Yu Chipeng's side, although that guy had a serious fox odor and some affected his appetite, but in the end, he really regarded himself as a friend, and he was more comfortable in the past.

But I'm afraid that this is a little bit of a loss of face for Fei Jun, Fei Jun is still a good person, Chen Qing actually doesn't want to offend.

The most important thing is the person in front of him, just looking at this posture and status, it is not low, if he doesn't know the details, it is better not to sweep the face of others, and he has responded to this invitation, whether it is to Fei Jun or Wei Chipeng, he has an explanation.

"Is Lord Chen drunk?" The thin middle-aged man asked with a smile.

Chen Qing shook his head directly, and apologized: "The lower officials haven't learned to drink yet. ”

This is not to shirk, in order to provide for his own education, what has become poor, and he still drinks?

As for past lives? As a technology, fat houses are all drinking fat house water.

"Do you want to learn it?" The middle-aged man laughed.

"Forget it....." Chen Qing said with a smile: "The lower official has ordered a carriage, and he will rush to Liuzhou later." ”

"In such a hurry?"

"The rent is expensive, and the lower officials haven't received the money yet, and the coiling and stuff are about to run out."

Crowd: "......."

"Haha!" The middle-aged man smiled when he heard this: "You are an interesting person, other Jinshi, I can't wait to stay for a few more days, if you can get through some relationships, you can get through some relationships, but you can't wait to leave quickly." ”

"I don't have any money, what can I do to get through the relationship?"

The surrounding civil officials had black lines on their faces, and the middle-aged people and the surrounding generals laughed.

"Lord Chen!" An old civil official sitting opposite had a dark face: "Those who are about to take office, please speak and act decently!" ”

Chen Qing was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the crane complement on the other party's chest, well, ..... second-grade official, maybe it's still a book, naturally he didn't dare to offend, and hurriedly said: "The lower official lost his words, please don't be surprised." ”

"Hum ....." The old man glanced at Chen Qing faintly, then at the middle-aged man next to him, and then said, "Lord Chen and Lord Qin Guogong are very familiar?" ”

Chen Qing froze when he heard this, and looked at the guy next to him.

This is the guy from Yin Laozi?

"You are Lord Qin Guogong?"

The other party smiled when he heard this: "Lord Chen's expression...... Do you seem to have some complaints about me? ”

"How so?" Chen Qingpi smiled and said: "I haven't thanked Lord Guogong for his recommendation, the position of the prefect of the student can be obtained, thanks to Lord Guogong." ”

Chen Qing Guogong's two words are bitten very hard, and the corpse of the last one that he has been calling Guogong has been cold, you can ask for more blessings.....

The surrounding generals all looked at Chen Qing, very few people were so calm after knowing Lao Lu's identity, although this kid is a literati, he has the spirit of a military general!

"Haha, no thanks." Qin Guogong suddenly smiled and said, "Lord Chen's ability to do errands is your own ability, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

A few Wenchen on the opposite side frowned, looking at the two of them like this, they shouldn't know each other, after all, with Qin Guogong's current status, there is no need to show them such a scene with young people.

"Where, where ......" Chen Qing said with a smile: "Without the recommendation of Lord Guogong, I won't even have a chance to perform, such a great kindness, I will repay it in the future." ”

Qin Guogong shook his head amusefully when he heard this, but he was a little curious in his heart, he had read countless people, but he rarely saw a young man who was so indifferent to him.

Although there is respect on the lips, there is no awe in the eyes.

This is not only to look at himself, but also when he looks at the official book opposite, this young man is also like this, so peaceful, so ..... indifference?

He didn't know why he used the word, but it felt like that, and the young man looked at everyone with a kind of indifference, as if he had been someone..... ......

In this way, a large table of people chatted from time to time about what they had or not, and the topic was very homely, such as how old is this year? How many people are in the family? The teacher who worshipped before being admitted to the Shishi? If it weren't for the fact that the emperor had already made it public that he wanted to marry him, he would have doubted whether the other party wanted to say goodbye to him.

Time flew by, and soon it was time to retire at night.

Chen Qing would not stay to keep vigil, so he hurriedly said goodbye to a few adults who seemed to be of a high level, and chatted with Yu Chipeng and Fei Jun for a few more words before preparing to flash people, he didn't want to stay in this place in the capital for a while.

But when he was about to leave the Guogong Mansion, he was stopped by an acquaintance.

is an expected person, but Chen Qing didn't expect the other party to come to him so late.

"Where did you just go?" Chen Qing asked.

The person who came was Wang Ye, watching Chen Qing speak, Wang Ye was slightly silent, he felt that Chen Qing's name towards him seemed to be becoming more and more casual.

Is the relationship between the two of them already so good?

"My master has something for you."

"Huh?"

----------------------------------------------------------------

"What do you think of this young man?"

After the dismissal, the civil and military officials all gathered in groups of three or five, chatting about some family things, and now that there are no paper figures responsible for recording words and deeds, the atmosphere seems to be much more relaxed.

At this time, there were many people discussing Chen Qing, including Lord Chen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who was chatting with Qin Guogong.

"I think it's interesting....." Qin Guogong looked at the direction Chen Qing left with a smile: "The young man who can break the situation of the thousand-faced fox is actually a mortal, it's really interesting......"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu also smiled slightly, and the prince in the distance heard the two talking about Chen Qing, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Now the imperial court is divided into three major factions, with Liu Yu, Jiuqing and other great warcists as the core, occupying the support of eighty percent of the court's civil ministers, and is the main force of the civil official group.

Then there are the loyal royalist families, such as the Wei Chi family and the Hong family, these are the high-level bloodline families that followed the Xiao family before the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty, occupying the power of the remaining thirty percent of the bloodline families!

In the past, the father and emperor were loyal to their bloodline families and sent them to guard the frontier towns and hold a large number of military powers, and in the capital, the warlock group was used to balance the bloodline families who supported Qin Guogong in the court, and to be honest, they barely had an advantage.

After all, although there are many bloodline families who support Qin Guogong, most of them are controlled in the capital, and the military power of the border army has been eroded step by step by his father over the years.

Originally, if this situation continued, by the time he ascended the throne safely, the royal strength of the border army had at least eighty percent of it, and with the absolute support of Liu Yu and others, he could start to deal with the Qin Guogong lineage.

But I don't know what my father is crazy about, and he actually moved Liu Yu!

More than half of the Jiuqing-level Grand Karcists were recommended by Liu Yu back then, and if Liu Yu was moved, once Wenchen was centrifuged, the situation in the capital would not be so stable.

Now that he saw that the secretary of the Ministry of Rites was actually chatting with Qin Guogong, the prince naturally had to pay attention.

In Jiuqing, the official department is the heavenly official, and the actual power is the greatest, but in terms of seniority and qualifications, it is actually the highest in the Ministry of Rites, Master Chen, as the abbot of the six scientific examinations, Mr. Chen's protégés are all over the world, and more importantly, now all over the world, he has basically cultivated the study and politics!

"Lord Chen is also interested in Chen Qing?" After listening to a few words, the prince finally couldn't help but interject.

"Your Highness......" Qin Guogong and Chen Shangshu saluted one after another.

"No need to be polite." The crown prince smiled: "Lone is just curious, why is His Royal Highness the Duke suddenly so interested in such a new science and technology scholar as Chen Qing?" ”

Qin Guogong smiled slightly when he heard this: "Maybe ..... is a little bored." ”

Bored?

The prince seems to be smiling, Liu Yu has just died, so he wants to make a move, right?

Chen Shangshu on the side saw it in his eyes, but he shook his head secretly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not a little worse than the Holy One, not only in strength, but also in character.

In fact, the most suitable person to inherit His Majesty's mantle is the eldest son born to the queen and His Majesty, but unfortunately ..... died young, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..... To be honest, he is really not optimistic.

Sometimes he is a little unsure, does he really want to pass on the fate of the warlock and put it on this prince?

----------------------------------------------

"Three factions?"

In the backyard of the Guogong Mansion, Wang Ye walked to the back door with Chen Qing in a familiar car, and for some reason along the way, he actually talked to Chen Qing about the situation in the court.

"Uh-huh....." Wang Ye nodded: "The Wei Chipeng and Hongwu you know belong to the royalist forces, and they are the bloodline families with the deepest ties with the Xiao family, and there are a few you haven't seen, most of them are serving in the border army." ”

"I see, ......" Chen Qing suddenly realized, he said, the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty is vast, more than ten times that of Huaxia in his previous life, and there are many princes who have been entitled, it is said that there are more than 20, but he has only heard of the nine princes in the capital, and the rest have been dispatched.

"Fei Jun is a rookie warlock, and he is the prince's cousin, a warlock of the Shaozhuang faction, and a close minister of the prince, if you accepted his invitation just now, and you just saved His Royal Highness the prince not long ago, then in the eyes of so many civil and military officials, you may be considered the prince's power."

Chen Qing: "........"

"Of course, if you accept Wei Chipeng's invitation, you are also a royalist, but the position will be a little bit on His Majesty's side, you should understand, right?"

Chen Qing smiled bitterly and nodded, royalists and princelings have always been two different things.....

"Then what's the matter if I answered the invitation of Qin Guogong today?"

"Lord Qin Guogong is protecting you." Wang Ye looked at the clear sky and said: "You are a literati, promoted by the civil official system, and the forces of Qin Guogong can't interfere with your career, both Your Majesty and the crown prince know this, so although the forces behind Qin Guogong seem to be the most dangerous, but contacting him is the least suspicious for the time being, and he took the initiative to invite you today to help you break the siege." ”

Chen Qing was stunned, what he didn't expect was that Qin Guogong would actually help him, and immediately frowned, he seemed to be with him...... Not familiar, right?

"That grown-up rarely does." Wang Ye also smiled: "I don't know why I am suddenly so interested in you." ”

"Haha......" Chen Qing snorted, feeling that it was not a good thing.

"By the way, you just said that Lord Song Guogong has something for me, what is it?"

Wang Ye paused, took out a black book that didn't look thin, and handed it over.

Chen Qing took it curiously, and put it on the pad, which was quite heavy, so he asked curiously, "What is it?" ”

"I don't know......" Wang Ye shook his head: "The master has set up the technique, and only you can open it." ”

"Oh?" Chen Qing was even more curious when he heard this, and opened the cover in front of him, and sure enough, when he turned the book, there were distorted space runes flashing in the book, and there was really a technique.

"You just opened it in front of me, not afraid that I would peek?" Wang Ye said with a smile.

"Afraid of what?" Chen Qing said with a smile: "I read it in front of you, I want to watch it with you, it's so serious, I can come and watch it together if I want to see it." ”

Wang Ye was slightly stunned, looked at Chen Qing for a long time, but finally did not object, nodded closer, and also looked at the book.

Hey? This is......
