The struggle of the reborn prince

He Qufei did not live in the palace, but settled down in a house near the palace. Thinking about it, these days are really like a dream.

One month after returning to Beijing from here, there was an envoy to pass the decree, and my wish for many years came true.The emperor felt that he had been an official for many years, was honest and diligent, and benefited one side, so he was allowed to be transferred to a civil position. When he got up, he thought that Prince Yan heard his wine talk and secretly asked someone to help him fulfill his wish.

Sure enough, within a few days, the head of Prince Yan's Mansion came to the door, saying it was congratulations, but what he said was that the prince is long and short, the prince is thinking of you, thinking of you, as long as anyone who is not stupid can tell, he He came to be a lobbyist and wanted him to work in Fuchu.This time he was not polite, and he agreed right away. This time, he was able to agree not only because of the kindness of the prince, but mainly because of the peace and tranquility in the palace, which is a good place for retirement and learning. In my sixtieth year, I don't want to travel around anymore.

He Qufeidian thanked him for his kindness, and made a report that he wanted to take office in Prince Yan's Mansion in Xiangyi. He also sent a message to his family asking them to pack their bags and be ready to follow him to take office in Xiangyi.But things turned around suddenly, people kept coming to the door, and the people who came were all big shots in Beijing or people who could turn clouds and rain.He Qufei was really dumbfounded now, he had never had any contact with these people, let alone had any contacts, why did he suddenly start friendship with himself, a low-ranking sesame official who was still penniless and waiting for a job in Beijing a few days ago.

These people are all here to lobby, hoping that he will stay in Beijing to work. Of course, the positions arranged are lucrative positions that can earn money while resting.Taking a step back, if you really want to go to Beijing to take a job, they are responsible for him. They will definitely find him a rich place to serve as a magistrate. The general meaning is just one sentence, as long as you don’t go to Prince Yan’s mansion to ask for money, and officials for money. official!Speaking of this part, He Qufei knew that he had caused trouble this time, and he had already been involved in the battle for the reserve position involuntarily.

Becoming the teacher of the prince is indeed the dream of many literati and bureaucrats, because there is hope here. Once the prince I teach ascends to the throne one day, as the teacher of the emperor, the new emperor will definitely treat me with more courtesy. "The imperial court contributes wisdom and shows its talents", that is really a good thing that both fame and fortune can only dream of.As a member of the scholars, He Qufei was naturally unavoidable, so he refused immediately. In order to avoid harassment, he thanked the guests behind closed doors and concentrated on waiting for the letter from the officials, but he did not expect to wait for nearly three months before the trip took place.

……

"Uncle Huang, you have more things to do this time, come back and have a good rest!" Huang Jingchen came to report his work during the past few days in Zhao Tun's small room in the summer courtyard, Zhao Tun asked him to sit down and ordered the tea ceremony.

"It's my duty to work hard for the lord, where can I get the word of thanks from the lord!" Huang Jingchen said with a smile, cupping his hands.

"Uncle Huang, this matter has been delayed for such a long time, is there someone obstructing it?" Zhao Tang took the tea from Jian Xi, handed it to Huang Jingchen and said.

"Oh, I didn't expect such a small matter to provoke many people to jump out. It seems that we have been watched by people. I'm afraid it has something to do with the Li Chu incident that is widely rumored in Beijing!" Huang Jingchen took the tea and sighed.

"Oh? Someone still doesn't want to let me go!" Zhao Tong said in amazement. He was far away from the capital, and he didn't say much about the matter of opposing Lichu. It's because the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop!

"From my point of view, people from the royal family were indeed involved. If we hadn't escorted him this time, I'm afraid He Zhengtong wouldn't have been able to get to our territory..." Huang Jingchen talked about the incident in detail.

After being appointed as an official, Huang Jingchen went to the posthouse to visit He Qufei and got his promise.Huang Jingchen was very happy. He was tired of living in Prince Yan's mansion in Beijing. Although this place was bigger and more magnificent than the mansion in Xiangyi, and the food and drink were not worse than there, he just felt that although Beijing was prosperous, But lifeless, lifeless, it is not as comfortable as staying there.With the letter of approval, Huang Jingchen replied to his mother, and asked someone to say hello to the officials, and waited for the completion of the work to go home.

Just as Huang Jingchen was heaving a sigh of relief, the person Shunzi sent to 'protect' He Qufei found out that Dingwang's mansion praised Geng Nanzhong and went to pay a visit to He Qufei at the post house, and then the housekeeper of Jiawang's mansion came to visit with gifts, and the descendants kept coming. However, when Yushi Zhongcheng Wang Fu and Zhongsheren Cai You also sent someone to invite He Qufei to the banquet, Shunzi knew that the matter was serious and hurriedly reported it to Huang Jingchen.

It is not surprising that Huang Jingchen, a lobbyist sent by Prince Ding's Mansion and King Jia's Mansion, although these two families seem to be on good terms with each other now, they are secretly fighting for the reserve but they are constantly making small moves. After all, no one wants to have another competitor, and they are only happy when that brother becomes a real villager.But the appearance of Wang Fu and Cai You was unexpected. Huang Jingchen did not dare to be careless, because one of these two is the emperor's new love and the other is the old love. The wind vane of where the 'grass' is falling!

If you don't say 'a man is mature', after Huang Jingchen found out, he didn't rush to take any action, but ordered Shunzi to send people to monitor day and night to find out what He Qufei was talking about with everyone.He wanted to see He Qufei's attitude first. Under the temptation of money and high-ranking officials, not everyone can keep his heart. People waste their feelings.He didn't tell the prince about this, he was worried that the prince would be eager to seek talent and would be arrogant, but he took on the pressure alone.

After a period of observation, He Qufei thanked the guests behind closed doors, read and write in the post house every day and did not go out to socialize, which can be regarded as showing his attitude, Huang Jingchen showed up again to date He Qufei, and took him to the Jingzhong Palace Living, because of his refusal, has put him on the cusp of fighting for reserves, and he may die in an 'accident' at any time!As He Qufei's attitude became clear, those people knew that the bribe had failed, and immediately changed their means, using their cronies to make a big fuss about He Qufei's appointment, and obstructed him for various reasons, but they did not issue an official document.

Huang Jingchen asked Liang Shicheng for help again, but his attitude became ambiguous.This kid regretted it a long time ago. He didn't know why he was planning to go to Prince Yan's mansion. If he knew what he said, he wouldn't 'help', because in his opinion: Zhao Huan is a decent person, an upright person, He is an honest person, Liu Xiahui, a thrifty person, a literati, and a person who doesn't please others; although Zhao Tun doesn't have many contacts, he has learned a lot from the time he passed the decree. Possessive, he will never be easily fooled by others, and will not be controlled by other people's roles; Zhao Kai is well-behaved, with hobbies, personality, talents, and even looks similar to the emperor, and he is deeply loved by the emperor.

Comparing these three princes, everyone of course hopes that Zhao Kai can inherit the mantle of the emperor, so that they can be rich and honored for thousands of years, and the "fat curtain" will never fall, so almost all treacherous officials who have great influence on the political situation are biased towards Zhao Kai , because Zhao Huan hated what he did, Wang Fu saw that 'kai was favored, so he had the intention of seizing the suit. 'Yang Jian and Tong Guan' both hated Huan and advocated regular script, and Cai You even became brothers in regular script.Tong Guan was in charge of building the mansions of the kings, and deliberately made his mansions "regarding the residences of the kings as the most extravagant." Apparently these people wanted to isolate Zhao Huan, so that Zhao Tun would spend his whole life in the countryside and never return to the capital for the rest of his life.These powerful figures working together, of course, made Huang Jingchen unable to parry.

"Uncle Huang, how did you manage to do this? Did you pass through your empress?" Only then did Zhao Tun realize how difficult he was for Huang Jingchen, he asked.

"Hey, I found Cai Jing and got this done!" Huang Jingchen said with a 'smirk'.

"Cai Xiang will help us, he didn't take the wrong medicine?" Because Zhao Tong came from his previous life, he naturally knew what Cai Jing was, and he rejected him from the bottom of his heart, so he never had any contact with him, and he didn't want to be with him. What entanglement happened, that's why I asked this question.

"Of course I don't want to be a relative. I sent someone to look for He Zhizhong. He will reach the age of becoming an official next year. Of course, I want to get some pension money. I bought him a shop and asked him to go to Cai Jing. Of course I won't do it in the name of our Prince Yan's Mansion, so as not to fall into the ground of making friends with powerful officials!"

"Cai Jing just took care of this matter?" Zhao Tang was a little confused, this old man is really a genius, with so many twists and turns.

"Of course, that shop is very valuable. Why would he refuse to take the risk and gain the benefits?" Huang Jingchen said with a smile seeing the prince's bewildered look, but he thought that although the prince is smart, he is still young. Don't know about these things in the court!

"What did He Zhizhong say, and what did Cai Jing say?" Zhao Tong asked. He was a soldier in his previous life, so he was not sensitive to political matters, and he had no access to high-level officials. It can be said that he was inherently deficient in politics.

"He Zhizhong said that he was in his own family and wanted to find a leisurely job. It happened that there was a vacancy in Yanwang's mansion. He wanted to go, but he didn't expect to get into trouble. He wanted to get out as soon as possible and asked for his mansion! Cai Jing, who has experienced many ups and downs in the three dynasties The old man, after all, is a treacherous official, and he can understand the reason with just a little brainstorming. He just said, "Establishing a heir to grow is not to be virtuous, and establishing a son to be valuable is not to be long. What can a mere prince's mansion Yishan change!" Because Cai Jing I know that Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, formulated the system of pre-establishing the crown prince. The principle is: as long as you are the eldest son born to the eldest wife, even if you are an idiot, you can justifiably become the crown prince. It was taken down in two days." Huang Jingchen took a sip of tea and said, "Although it cost some money, I managed to get it done, and finally fulfilled my mission!"

"Oh, Jiang is still old and hot!" Zhao Tun understood the twists and turns and sighed. He not only admired Cai Jing's political experience, but also was impressed by Huang Jingchen's sophistication and tact. If he did it himself, how would it be done? It's really hard to say.
