Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang led Baili to the door of the dormitory, looked at it, and Concubine Di suddenly stuck her head out, "What is the prince peeking at?"

Defang shivered a bit, "Ma'am, I was taken aback, why did I look secretly, I opened my eyes and looked carefully."

Concubine Di smiled and walked to the door, "Did your lord sleep well last night?"

"If my wife sleeps well, I will sleep well."

Concubine Di touched Defang's face and smiled, "My lord, why are you so tired? Are you okay?"

"Ma'am, nothing is wrong." Defang whispered to Concubine Di and told her that she didn't sleep last night. Concubine Di smiled and said, "It seems that my sister is not used to it either."

"Yes." De Fang moved her arm, "Ma'am, it still hurts a little now, do you feel bad?"

"Why does the prince's arm hurt his concubines?"

"Ma'am." Defang squeezed her eyes, "Go back to the house and lie down."

Concubine Di walked out of the dormitory, "The concubine is hungry and needs to go to the dining hall."

"Take it in and eat."

"Then the prince can eat by himself, and the concubine will have dinner with his two younger sisters and children and grandchildren." Concubine Di smiled and walked to the dining hall, Defang sighed and said, "Baili, why does the lonely king think that there are too many wives? But my heart is empty."

"Empty?" Baili seemed a little taken aback, "My lord, you won't be empty after breakfast."

Defang frowned and said, "The lonely king is talking about the heart, not the stomach, you are so stupid." After finishing speaking, he followed to the dining hall, and Baili stuck out his tongue and hurried after him.

A few days later, Defang took Baili to the Ministry of Officials to check the official registers. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials and the eldest son Wei Xu came to salute, "I (children) refer to the prince Qiansui (father)."

"Don't be too polite"

"My lord, why are you here?"

"Your Majesty wants to know about the achievements of various officials. He is preparing for the two-month examination in the Founder's Hall of Virtue and Virtue, so let the lonely king come over to have a look."

"My lord, that minister will help you find it."

"Fu Shangshu, as long as Xu'er is here, go and do other things."

Wei Xu bowed his hand, "Yes, Mr. Fu, just come and look for me."

"Then, His Royal Highness will be here." Fu Shangshu cupped his hands, "My lord, if you need anything else, I will be in the next room."

"Okay, Mr. Fu, let's go"

After Fu Shangshu left, Defang patted Weixu, "Xuer, you have worked hard to bring the records of the achievements of various officials to your father."

Wei Xu cupped his hands, "Father, sit down."

Defang sat at the table, and the maid brought refreshments, Wei Xu quickly brought a few trays of books of various officials, "Father, the records of the achievements of all the officials currently in office are recorded here, a total of 350 Five."

"Okay, look at it slowly, father, go and get busy if you have something to do."

"The child is fine, and I want to learn from my father."

"Hey, come on, sit down." Defang looked at the book and told Wei Xu some things about officials. Defang saw a name and pointed to the book, "Xu'er, look at this official."

"Li Yingji" Wei Xu took a closer look, "Father, it seems that this official has a very good political performance. He was directly appointed as the general judge of Yizhou from the county magistrate, but he has been an official in Beijing for only two years. He seems to be a capable official."

"That's right, Li Yingji is indeed a capable official, but you see that in recent years, although his political achievements have been quite good, he has not been promoted. Do you know why?"
