The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 537 Don't be in a hurry

Regent House.

In early spring, the sun was warm and the window was cool, so Lin Jiaojiao changed into a purple thin jacket and skirt, and sat in front of the window with her left cheek that didn't hurt, her eyes staring straight out of the window in a daze.

The pear blossom tree in the courtyard, which looks like a dead tree, has sprouted small buds, presumably it is about to bloom, and when it blooms, there will be a pear blossom snow in Shuanghuaju.

The sound of burning charcoal in the room could be heard from time to time, Xuemei sat by the stove warming the medicine, and sniffed, the medicine prescribed by Yu Lao had a fragrant smell, but the lady said it was very bitter.

Seeing that the medicine was hot, he took the bowl down with a thick cloth and put it on the small table by the window.

"Niang Niang, the half bowl you have left, after resting for so long, it's time to drink it."

It has been more than an hour since the morning, and the empress has just sat here for more than an hour, staring out the window in a daze without saying a word.

Presumably the empress is worried about what happened yesterday.

So he comforted him in advance: "Your Majesty, it's okay even if this matter doesn't work out, let's take a long-term plan, and we can't rush things step by step."

Anyway, she felt that this matter was unlikely to be successful. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials recommended An Wang as the examiner. Not to mention that the prince would not agree, I am afraid that the entire court would not agree.

Of course, these were all guesses by her, but her guesses were not unreasonable. Even her maidservant knew how important the position of the chief examiner was.

So it was indeed difficult for Wang An to be the examiner.

Lin Jiaojiao's eyes shifted slightly, she glanced at Xuemei and then continued to stare out the window, she was not worried about Wang An's affairs.

After all, King An is talented and educated, and he is also a relative of the emperor. When all the ministries have had troubles, and the imperial examination is the most important thing in the country, the position of the chief examiner must be safe.

For the entire court and even the royal family, King An, King Duan and King Qi are the most suitable three.

The post of examiner in the previous life fell to King Duan. She hadn't figured out how King Duan got the position of examiner from the prime minister a few days ago.

It turned out that it was just because the prime minister was old.

But among the three princes of the Great Southern Royal Family, Duan Wang Yan Sihan did not trust him, so he would definitely not be the first choice.

After all, King Duan became the chief examiner in the previous life because Yan Sihan was pissed off by the little emperor, and he didn't go to court that day so that King Duan got the chance.

Followed by King Qi.

She doesn't know much about King Qi, and he is also someone she has neglected recently. She only knows that he is notoriously irritable, and he is not willing to give anyone face.

The most famous thing is to send the person sent by the queen mother back to the queen mother while it is hot after finishing the work that night.

Naturally, there is no need to say much about such a temperament.

Finally, it is King An. Letting King An go into battle can obviously reduce the probability of taking bribes and going through the back door in the imperial examination.

One is that Wang An is new in office and he is not easy to curry favor with. Second, Wang An does not need money or corrupt officials now. What he needs now are clean talents.

Yan Sihan will naturally take this into consideration, and will definitely restrict King An after he takes office.

She put Wang An's monkey on a leash in the peach grove, and she chose what peach she wanted.

After the success of this matter, King An and the previous King An turned the page.

A prince who has a position in the court will never have the time for others to make irresponsible remarks. The past will become a "little-known" history.

For Wang An, this was a turning point in his life, and it was also the opportunity that Wang An had been waiting for.

I hope this child can drink water and never forget the man who dug the well. If he can't, the same principle that Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He loses is also applicable to Wang An.

So she didn't worry about King An at all, what she worried about was her toothache.

Not only does it hurt, but I also have to drink medicine. There is Coptis chinensis in this medicine, which is an extremely bitter medicine. If you drink it in a bowl, the bitter taste in your mouth will not be suppressed by any candied fruit.
