Chapter 535 Xu Jue and Wei Ziang take office
"It turns out that Qin Zhao was the top scholar that year. He was deeply loved by the emperor and was entrusted with important tasks. He advocated the development of the economy of the Great Zhou, the strengthening of trade, and set up a city for trade. However, he did not expect that there were Hun spies mixed in with the merchants. The Huns took the opportunity to break through the city, burning, killing and looting, causing the people in the city to be brutally slaughtered. Qin Zhao was also convicted, exiled, and eventually died tragically." Tiandao said.
"What now?" Tang Li asked.
"After this setback, he reflected on himself and realized a truth: knowledge gained from books is shallow; true understanding comes from personal experience. He studied for three years, traveled extensively, set aside his pride, and willingly sought advice. Three years later, Qin Zhao took the imperial examination again and won first place. What happened next, you know."
Tangli also indirectly changed Qin Zhao's fate.
"I don't understand." Tang Li said.
Tiandao: “…”
Tangli was in deep thought.
Tiandao clearly described Xu Lubai's future trajectory, but Qin Zhao was vague...
There are two possibilities. One is that Heaven cannot say it, and the other is that Heaven doesn’t know either.
Tang Li analyzed it and found that this was equivalent to having a main line. She and her husband, Zhu Chunjiao and Zhao Shu, were connected by this main line.
What happened to Xu Lubai happened in a county in Liangzhou, far away from this main line, so Tiandao can accurately tell this trajectory.
Qin Zhao's incident happened in the capital, which is close to the main plot and involves variables, so even God cannot explain it clearly.
Tangli expressed his guess.
Tiandao stared at her with wide eyes, very surprised.
Obviously, she guessed right.
"You are the variable." Tiandao said slowly.
It is true.
In this main line, she is a variable, and even Heaven cannot foresee a clear future for those closely related to her.
"The more I change, the more good is rewarded with good and evil is punished with evil, and I follow the way of heaven. You become stronger and stronger, but will He become weaker and weaker?" Tang Li continued to ask.
They are like light and darkness; the more light there is, the less darkness there will be.
Tiandao nodded: "Yes."
"When he becomes weak enough and can no longer protect Zhu Chunjiao, can we kill her?" Tang Li asked.
Tian Dao was surprised. His daughter actually knew that Zhu Chunjiao was still alive?!
The laws of nature must also abide by rules, and some information cannot be disclosed.
However, this was not revealed by Him, but guessed by His daughter!
Tiandao continued to nod.
Tang Li was a little happy. Now he had a direction. If he continued like this, he would surely wait for the day when Zhu Chunjiao and Zhao Shu would get their retribution!
"Okay, I got it. Goodbye." Tang Li said.
Tiandao: “…”
Why do I feel like I'll be thrown away after using it?
…
A few days later, the official robes from the Hanlin Academy were delivered to the Marquis' Mansion.
Wei Ziang was a sixth-rank editor in the Hanlin Academy, and Xu Jue was a seventh-rank editor in the Hanlin Academy. Their official robes were slightly different.
When the official robes were delivered, the two young men tried them on.
When the two young men put on the clothes, they looked equally slender and straight, but their temperaments were different.
Tangli looked back and forth at the two teenagers.
"You two little adults are so cute." Tang Li praised.
Xu Jue held his head high and chest out, looking somewhat proud, while Wei Ziang smiled, looking somewhat shy.
Wei Qing patted the two young men on the shoulders and explained to them how to be an official. Both young men listened very carefully.
The next day, the two young men reported to the Hanlin Academy.
When they first entered the Hanlin Academy, both of them were a little nervous.
But with the person I was most familiar with standing next to me, most of the tension dissipated.
The two of them went to report to the Hanlin Academy.
The scholar from the Hanlin Academy assigned work to the two men, and they went to work.
Their job is to organize classics.
Since they were both top scorers and runners-up, it was impossible for them to do this kind of work all the time. They sorted out the classics and became familiar with them. Once they were familiar with them, they would be assigned other tasks.
Colleagues were very curious about the youngest champions and came up to talk to them. They were escorted to the room where the classics were kept.
As soon as the two entered the room where the classics were kept, they saw a familiar figure holding a book and reading it in an orderly manner.
"Sixth Prince!" Wei Ziang said in surprise.
Zhao Jingxuan had been reading for a long time. When he saw them finally arrived, he pretended to put down the book.
"You guys are here? There are so many books here. I was so engrossed in reading that I didn't even notice you were here."
"Your Highness, why are you here?" Wei Ziang asked curiously.
"I'm here to supervise your work." Zhao Jingxuan raised his head and chest and said proudly.
"Oh? What is your official position?" Wei Ziang continued to ask.
Zhao Jingxuan acted as if he was very capable: "Well..."
Xu Jue glanced at his official robes and said, "Hanlin Academy Scholar, low rank."
Zhao Jingxuan: “…”
Don't let him pretend for a while longer.
Wei Ziang and Xu Jue walked around the library.
"Shujishi, come here and take a look at this book to see if there are any missing pages." Xu Jue waved at him.
Zhao Jingxuan: “…”
Are you going to order me around now?
Zhao Jingxuan walked over and took the book.
"Take a look at the content to see if there are any mistakes or omissions. If you are not sure, ask me and Ziang." Xu Jue said.
Zhao Jingxuan knew that Xu Jue wanted him to read more books.
Forget it. As the big brother, he can’t lag too far behind his younger brothers.
Zhao Jingxuan opened the book and started reading.
Not long after, Zhuo Shu's arrangement came down and he was promoted to the magistrate of Qingyang County, Qinghe County.
Those in the first class entered the Hanlin Academy, while those in the second class were mostly sent out to serve as officials. After a few years of training and making achievements, they would be transferred back to Beijing.
It just so happened that Zhuo Shu's adoptive parents were both in Qinghe and didn't want to leave their hometown, so this result was acceptable.
So, Manager Hua and Cao Ji packed up and returned to Qinghe.
…
A few days later.
Tangli received an invitation.
It was sent from the palace, inviting her to attend the emperor's 40th birthday.
The emperor's birthday was celebrated by the whole nation. The birthday banquet had been prepared for half a year and was very grand.
Those invited were royal relatives, important officials in the court, and the wives of important officials.
Tang Li was a noble lady and was among the invited guests. Her mother was also invited, but Madam Wu was not invited.
When Tangli received the invitation, he was thoughtful.
The birthday banquet was held in the palace. She had never been to the palace before, and the world inside the palace was very unfamiliar to her.
In novels, the harem is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones, especially the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.
You need to be careful in this process, as one wrong step will lead to eternal damnation.
"Wife, don't be afraid, I'm with you." Wei Qing took the invitation from her hand, put it aside, and hugged her.
Tangli is actually not afraid. She is a koi, so what is there to be afraid of?
She just wanted to...
"Husband, do you still remember your childhood?" Tang Li asked.
Wei Qing nodded.
"I was named the crown prince shortly after I was born, and moved to the Eastern Palace when I was four. I would secretly run to see my mother. She was very unhappy when she was alone, and she didn't like the palace. I didn't like it either. The palace was like a cage that trapped my mother and me." Wei Qing said.
Everyone told him that he was the crown prince and would be the emperor in the future, and that he should learn this and that, such as reading and writing, riding horses and archery...
However, what he loved most was following his uncle to climb trees to get bird eggs and go to the river to catch fish...
From childhood to adulthood, he was rarely happy, until he met his wife, and his world suddenly brightened up!
"Husband, no matter what happens in the future, I will be with you." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing nodded violently.
Tangli placed his hand on her abdomen.
"And our children."
