After my inner voice was exposed, I made the tyrant cry anxiously

Seeing Liu Xuan, the Su family members remembered the matter of Zhongzheng's ranking. The newly appointed Zhongzheng officials will assess the scholars from all over the world and assign grades to people from various states. Finally, they will be handed over to the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel will make decisions based on the grade of the scholars and the grade of the official position. Scholars confer officers.

In the past, Song Qianfan should have taken the opportunity to cultivate a group of cronies at this time. After all, Mei Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel was one of his people.

Although Mei Shangshu may not have the courage, it is hard to say if Song Qianfan uses any means to force him. This must be guarded against.

However, Liu Xuan's family background, character and talents are obvious to all, so why has he never become an official?
The spring hunting is over and everyone returns to the capital.

The Su family immediately approached Liu Miaoqing and wanted to ask her about Zhongzheng's products. After all, Zhongshu Ling had been at the center for so many years, so her daughter should know something about it.

But he didn't expect that Zhongshu Ling was also there. When Su Juan mentioned it, he took the opportunity to explain it to the two of them.

At this time, in Duke Ping's mansion, Ping Bohou was pulled into the study by Duke Ping for a secret talk.

"What does Zhongzheng's selection of scholars have to do with you and me?" Ping Bohou drank tea and looked at his old friend with puzzled eyes.

In the past, King Han and King Heng fought hard over the candidates for Zhongzheng officials. The chosen people, for the benefit of their respective masters, were rife with corruption in private.

But this year, King Heng is not here, so the new Zhongzhengguan must be recommended by the King of Han. It seems that the DPRK will usher in a new situation.

But Duke Pingguo has always been neutral and does not get involved in these things.

Duke Ping's thin lips tightened, "You and I are in the court, and we can still protect ourselves now. Once the crown prince is chosen, what will happen to the Xie family and the Liu family?"

If you are in a situation, how can you not find a way out?
Hearing the serious tone of Duke Ping, Prince Ping stopped laughing immediately, "Brother Xie, please think carefully. Once King Han or King Jing joins the team, a bloody storm is inevitable."

Although the King of Han has the upper hand now, His Majesty has always been King Jing who takes advantage of one of his compatriots. Who this will be in the end is really unpredictable.

In this situation, neutrality and self-preservation are actually the safest option.

He really couldn't understand why his old friend, who had always been neutral, suddenly wanted to take sides, how cruel the party struggle was, and how extravagant King Heng was when he was so glorious and had all the wealth in the world, but now he was sent to a barbaric land, and in this life I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to return to Beijing.

And those who were related to King Heng either lost their official positions or lost their lives.

Thinking back to the time when His Majesty seized the throne, Pei Lianshan, the commander-in-chief of the Dingbei Army, was so glorious, but in the end he ended up being executed due to party strife. Now that I think about it, I am still shocked.

How could Duke Ping not understand the meaning of Ping Bohou's words? But now, he had to think about the Su family.

Now that the situation in the court is already in chaos, King Han holds a large number of troops, and King Jing has help from the Yu family. Will he really watch the position he is about to acquire fall into the hands of others?

After all, Su Juan's life experience cannot be concealed, and she will inevitably be involved in party struggles in the future. At that time, there will be no one else in the court to help her except herself. Even if she has the emperor's favor, it will be of no use.

Once something happens to the emperor, no matter whether King Han comes to the throne or King Jing comes to the throne, the Su family will not be spared.

If the emperor really wants to train Su Jian to ascend the throne, there is no guarantee that no one from both parties will rebel by questioning her life experience.

Therefore, for the sake of their niece, the Xie family had to start planning for her and cultivate a group of loyal ministers who could protect her in the chaos no matter whether she could take on the responsibility of the world in the end.

Looking at his old friend of decades before him, Duke Ping told him that his Majesty's heir had been found.

Ping Bohou was stunned, "Is this true!?"

This is a big deal!
Since Your Majesty has an heir, why should he choose the crown prince from within the clan?
Duke Ping solemnly nodded, "Whether it is life experience, appearance, or even the Queen's token, we have had someone verify it, and there will be no mistakes."

Ping Bohou naturally believed what he said, "In that case, why not inform Your Majesty and the people of the world about such good things?"

So, why do King Han and King Jing need to fight anymore?
Duke Ping sighed, "I won't hide it from you. The princess has passed away. What I found is the princess's daughter who is still alive."

Ping Bohou suddenly understood. No wonder his always neutral old friend behaved like this.It is not that there is no precedent for a crown princess in the Jin Dynasty, but since the princess has passed away, some people will inevitably question the identity of the little princess. If her life experience is exposed at this time, it will only lead to death.

If His Majesty really wants to establish an imperial concubine in the future, how can people who have been fighting for many years be convinced?

The emperor is old, and if something happens, the life of the little princess will not be saved.

Therefore, whether it was out of the desire to help the little princess or to save the lives of his little niece and granddaughter, the Xie family could no longer be what it was before.

At this time, Ping Bohou felt like he was in the mirror. Today, Duke Ping did not come to him to talk to him, but to express his feelings to him.

He sighed, "You and I have been friends for decades, and the relationship between our two families has long been inseparable, but you have to let me know where the little princess is now. Is she still safe?"

You have to find someone to protect you secretly first.

Duke Ping was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.

When Ping Bohou saw this, he thought he didn't trust him, so he immediately blew his beard and glared, "Could it be that you can't even trust me?"

If so, why are you asking yourself to do this today? ?
Duke Ping immediately explained, "No, no! Brother Liu, don't get me wrong. The main reason is that this child's identity is really hard to talk about."

Ping Bohou: "?"

He looked unhappy, feeling that Duke Ping just didn't trust him, "What's so hard to say?"

Duke Ping sighed, "You know this girl too."

Ping Bohou's eyes changed from doubt to shock, "Could it be someone from my house!?"

Could it be that one of the maids in his house failed? !

Duke Ping couldn't let him continue guessing, so he told the truth, "This girl is Su Juan."

Ping Bohou breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest, "It's okay, it's okay." He was not a servant of his own house.

He just said, how could his Earl's Mansion have such a big bottle? ?
He looked at Duke Ping in disbelief, "Are you talking about the one I know?"

Duke Ping Guo nodded, "Now I am a member of the sixth rank, Yuanwai Lang, who is serving in the Ministry of Household Affairs."

The next moment, Prince Ping stood up and was about to leave. Seeing this, Duke Ping immediately stopped him and started talking to him, "Brother Liu! We are life and death friends!"

Ping Bohou wiped his tears and said, "Since you and I are friends of life and death, how can you harm me!"

Duke Ping: "Why did I harm you?"

"Who is Su Juan? He is someone who can't hide his thoughts!"

"You asked me to assist her, you might as well have me and the whole family crashed into the palace wall to death!"

"Before her identity was exposed, she had already offended many ministers in the court. His Majesty Tianyunshan was there that day, and if someone wanted to kill her, you knew it in your heart!"

Pingguo Gong couldn't get in the conversation, so he had no choice but to nod in response to him.

Ping Bohou asked angrily, "Brother Xie, let me ask you, how can you help this woman!?" (End of Chapter)
