Chapter 81: Promotion! Then go to Beijing!
"Then I won't bother Minister Zeng. I have an imperial decree for Dean Qin."
The eunuch said goodbye to his father with a smile, then led his men on horseback and headed out of the mansion.
Only Zeng Shilin was left holding the imperial edict, standing there with an expressionless face, lost in thought for a long time.
"father?"
Zeng Anmin stepped forward and shouted.
Zeng Shilin slowly came back to his senses, then looked at Zeng Anmin and said in a deep voice:
"Follow your father to the study."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the study.
Zeng Anmin looked at his father's back, frowned slightly, but said nothing more and followed Zeng Shilin away.
"Squeak~"
The study door was closed.
There were only father and son in the room.
Zeng Anmin looked at his father.
At this moment, my father's eyes just happened to look over here.
When their eyes met, a solemn atmosphere arose.
Zeng Anmin became suspicious.
But he did not speak rashly. He just quietly found a place and waited for his father to speak.
Dad's eyes were calm, showing no joy at the promotion, and his voice was calm:
"Do you know why I, your father, remain as calm as still water when I was promoted to this important position?"
"Then you tell me."
Zeng Anmin picked up the jade ruyi on the table and played with it gently.
The jade ruyi is very big, and it is not something you can just put in your arms...
After playing for a while, Zeng Anmin suddenly felt bored and looked at his father bored.
At this time, the father's voice was deep:
"Both imperial edicts are the work of you and me, father and son..."
At this point, his eyes narrowed slowly: "But he didn't mention a single word about 'Jiang Wang's rebellion'."
Having said this, Zeng Anmin paused slightly, raised his eyes slowly, met his father's eyes, and said softly:
"Emperor Jianhong, don't you want to make this a big deal?"
"Although Prince Jiang is not powerful, he and Prince Qi are brothers from the same mother. Prince Qi is a fourth-grade martial arts master and the only high-ranking martial artist in the royal family..."
Zeng Shilin explained Zeng Anmin's doubts:
"He is also the Imperial City's Stitu, and the prince the Saint relies on the most."
When Zeng Anmin heard this, he slowly understood.
The Imperial City Bureau is a special agency of the Great Holy Dynasty.
Similar to the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty in the previous life.
Four words to describe it: Specially appointed by the emperor, supervising all officials, monitoring the entire world, and having power over the government and the country! !
There is a supervisor in the Imperial City Department who is in charge of all important affairs of the department.
The current head of the Imperial City Department is named Ji Qing.
He holds a second-rank official position, holds a high position and has the power of life and death.
Under the Tizhu is the Tidu, a total of four people, divided into the four Tidus of east, west, south and north.
All of them are martial arts masters, and the four Tidu officials are of the third rank, each in charge of important affairs.
The King of Qi mentioned by my father held the important position of Northern Commander of the Imperial City.
"So, for the sake of so-called royal dignity, Prince Jiang's rebellion was suppressed? Will future history books record him as having been persecuted by you?"
Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice.
It goes without saying that one day in the future, some "historian" will come out to overturn the verdict on King Jiang...
And his own father suddenly turned into a jester who forced the prince to rebel?
Sure enough, after hearing what the eldest son said, a sneer appeared on the father's face:
"No problem."
"Four years ago, when I was forcing Prince Jiang, I imagined this would happen."
"Even if the Saint suppresses the charge of rebellion..."
The smile on Dad's face became more and more indifferent:
"Corruption, collusion with demons, wanton killing of innocent people, and abuse of power for personal gain—that's enough."
Um?
Zeng Anmin blinked.
Since Dad said this, he must be absolutely sure.
"Do you think Qin Shoucheng is really the kind of person who just sits there doing nothing but eating?"
"He has a lot of evidence against Prince Jiang."
Qin Shoucheng? ?
Zeng Anmin's expression paused slightly.
Dad glanced at him and continued:
"I know you have a grudge against Zhang Lun because of his death."
"But if he captures Wang Lin then, it will alert the enemy and ruin my father's four years of planning."
Zeng Anmin felt extremely complicated after hearing his father's words.
Then he sighed in his heart.
If Wang Lin had been captured at that time, there would probably be no death of Prince Jiang today...
He remained silent.
I feel a little empty inside.
Therefore, in the eyes of those in high positions, Brother Zhang Lun is just...
"The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict must have gone to appease the Qin family."
The old man's eyes were deep as he looked towards the window: "If nothing unexpected happens, he should be promoted and allowed to return to Beijing."
"The future situation may not be good."
Dad looked at Zeng Anmin and said in a very cautious voice:
"Your promotion to the Crown Prince's tutor may not carry any real power, but it represents the Sage's comfort to his father."
Zeng Anmin knew this.
It has also been played in many ancient TV dramas in the past life.
In order to express his reliance on his ministers, the emperor would let the ministers' sons serve as tutors to the crown prince.
This also conveys a message to the ministers, that is, the future of your family is settled.
The crown prince is the heir apparent and the future emperor.
"Huang Yuangao took over my father's position as Governor-General, and my father replaced him as Minister of State. Haha, Your Majesty is a good check and balance."
The old man sneered, then turned his gaze to Zeng Anmin:
"Your position is low and your influence is insignificant. You don't need to know about the factional disputes in the court."
After saying this, Zeng Shilin turned his gaze to Zeng Anmin and sneered:
"The Crown Prince's tutor has the right to browse all the books in the palace, including many handwritten by great Confucian scholars, and may even contain the personal insights of Confucian sages. It can be said that if you can become a tutor, your Confucianism will surely improve rapidly."
At this point, the subject suddenly changed:
"But once we get to the capital, we'll have to claim illness and won't be able to serve as the Crown Prince's tutor."
"ah?"
Zeng Anmin was stunned for a moment, then asked blankly: "Why is this?"
In his eyes, no matter from which aspect, it is a good thing...
Dad looked at him straight with deep eyes.
It made him feel a little scared.
"To become the prince's tutor, one must pass an examination."
"The assessment method is the illusion array set up by the Xuanzhen Division."
"This formation is mainly to test one's character and talent."
"The mysteries within the formation will forcibly suppress your soul and mental power."
"So, once you enter the formation, you will lose your memory and won't know you are there."
"I'm afraid you might reveal Black Cat Wufu's identity."
"Although you have awakened the Kanlongtu, and with its help you can be fearless and ask your conscience, you cannot gamble."
Dad always thought that Zeng Anmin's ability to ignore his conscience was related to his awakening of the Kanlongtu.
…
Zeng Anmin's expression turned strange.
Suppressing the soul, spiritual power? ?
He glanced at the gold finger panel imperceptibly.
[Unyielding Martial God: Immune to all spirit and mental attacks.]
No, isn't this kind of assessment tailor-made for me?
"I see."
Zeng Anmin was serious in answering his father's questions.
He even had some vague expectations in his heart.
If I am tested, I can perform beyond my expectations.
If he could make the little prince worship him, wouldn't he be able to run rampant in the capital from now on?
This is definitely the real prince of the Beijing circle.
Hurry up and go to Beijing to take part in the assessment, I’m going to blind everyone’s eyes!
Moreover, he could casually browse through the palace collection of books.
The palace's foundation is stronger than any academy!
…
Early spring has passed and late spring has arrived.
In a short period of time, new buds began to grow quietly on the tree.
Carriages lined up like a long dragon and slowly left Liangjiang County.
The current Fengqi Road Governor, Zeng Shilin, has been promoted.
He wants to enter the capital.
When he was a high-ranking official, the Minister of War and the Grand Secretary of Wuying Palace, he became the youngest cabinet scholar!
Zeng Anmin, the son of the Shangshu, was looking in front of him in shock.
Qin Wanyue was riding a handsome horse, looking at him with a smile in her extremely calm eyes.
"Brother Quan Fu, long time no see."
Uh... Zeng Anmin was about to speak.
Then he saw Qin Shoucheng looking at him expressionlessly not far away.
But he was sitting in the carriage, lifting the curtains and giving himself a death stare.
Zeng Anmin pretended not to see it.
He turned his head, showed a bright smile, looked at Qin Wanyue and said:
"Miss Qin, why don't you ride with me?"
"Yeah." Qin Wanyue was not a pretentious person. She rode the horse openly and walked side by side with Zeng Anmin.
The young man is full of vigor and vigor.
The girl is of pure and kind nature, and is extremely beautiful.
The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, they are a perfect couple.
Looking at the backs of the two people.
The veins on the back of Qin Shoucheng's hand, which was lifting the curtain, suddenly bulged.
