Chapter 110
Chapter 110
"who?"
"I?"
Ji Yuan just felt that the person in front of him was talking ridiculously.
"You and Wu Renhao."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Fifth Prince is very popular right now. It won't affect anything if you go and play a few games with him."
Ji Yuan frowned again.
Did he really hear it right?!
Let him and Wu Renhao play Cuju with the Fifth Prince before they are sent abroad?
Didn’t they say that the Fifth Prince has stopped playing around and is handling government affairs properly?
Ji Yuan declined, saying, "There are too many things to do before being sent abroad. There are many things to be handed over to the Historian's Office. I really don't have time."
The Lantern Festival just ended.
Ji Yuan sent Wu Ying, Liu Jun and others away.
Gao Laosi also left recently.
Not only the good friends around him, but also many scholars in the Historiography Bureau have recently been processing their departure documents, and there are many follow-up tasks that need to be handled.
As the chief of this place, Ji Yuan must handle these matters well.
The lesson of Mr. Cheng from the Cheng family is still there, and he now has to go to the Ministry of Justice every day to explain the situation. It was all caused by the lack of transparency in the handover of work at that time.
Therefore, Ji Yuan must make sure everything is clear before taking office.
Although the documents for the overseas assignment had not been issued yet, he had already made an appointment with Lord Nie Shiming who was going to Yingtian Prefecture with him.
We'll go together then.
Both should leave around the end of January.
At this critical juncture, the Fifth Prince's people actually made such a ridiculous proposal.
Let him play Cuju with the Fifth Prince before he is sent abroad?
Isn't it better to go during the break? Why let him go to the Cuju field in broad daylight?
Ji Yuan looked at the official business at hand, forced a smile, and said again: "I really can't, I've been too busy lately."
The other party frowned.
Why is Ji Yuan so stubborn and still thinks he has a bright future?
It's just a number one scholar. Tianqi State has produced more than one number one scholar. Can all of them become cabinet ministers?
There are many geniuses in this world, but there is only one prince.
There are too many people in the world who want to curry favor with the prince.
Not to mention that the prince's current prestige is unmatched by anyone else.
After Ji Yuan refused.
The other party hasn't given up yet.
Because Wu Renhao, who had just returned from duty, was also invited.
Now, only Ji Yuan, Monk Bai, and Wu Renhao are left in Ji’s house.
Wu Renhao told the story truthfully: "It is said that the prince heard people mention Cuju and felt itchy again, so he asked his subordinates to reorganize the team."
Wang Li and other former football hooligans are still in the capital. They moved to a place far away from the outer city, but when they heard that the Fifth Prince wanted to play Cuju again, they hurried over.
In addition to these people, Wu Ying and others are naturally also on the re-convened list.
But when they went to look for them, they found out that Wuying and Liu Jun had already left the capital and went to the border.
The person who was in charge of finding someone was still cursing.
"You have no vision at all. Isn't it better to work in the capital than as a side guard?"
"Serving the prince is much better than working so hard on the border!"
The descendants of the soldiers in the city defense camp frowned when they heard this.
Fortunately, Wu Renhao is still here.
Even if Wu Renhao is brought over, we are still missing two main players.
Wang Li and his friends had an idea, but they didn't know whether they should tell it.
Among the new scholars, there were White Monk and Ji Yuan. They were also very good at playing football and even beat them.
At other times, Wang Li and others would definitely not say this.
They wanted so badly to seize this opportunity.
Ever since the Fifth Prince disbanded the Cuju team, they have had a hard time.
If we were to say who in the world most wanted the Fifth Prince to like Cuju again, it would be them.
We have waited so long for this opportunity, how could we possibly give up?
Therefore, the names of Bai Heshang and Ji Yuan were also listed.
For the people under the Fifth Prince, Monk Bai was easy to deal with, as he was just a Jinshi and something had happened where he was.
It couldn't be easier to let him play football with the prince.
It’s Ji Yuan who is different from others.
After all, he is a top scholar and even the emperor appreciates him.
Is it appropriate for him to play football with the prince?
All I can say is that everyone still underestimates the flattering hearts of their subordinates.
It is actually an honor to play football with the top pick.
Ji Yuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The Fifth Prince is indeed very popular recently.
The prince's side has nothing bad either, and his family is still in the prince's mansion.
During the two days of the New Year, on the 30th, she went to the palace to celebrate the New Year with the Emperor, and on the first day of the New Year, she went to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.
This is not the case with real confinement.
Do the people on the Fifth Prince's side really think that the situation is in their favor?
I thought the matter was over, as Wu Renhao and Monk Bai also refused.
Wu Renhao will be with Ji Yuan at that time, but Monk Bai is really not in the mood.
Who would have thought that a few days later, Nie Shiming would actually take the initiative to find his home.
Lord Nie Shiming, former magistrate of Zhengrong County.
His uncle was the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
This time, he will be exiled to Yingtian Prefecture together with Ji Yuan.
Nie Shiming had a square face and looked steady, but he was just looking. As soon as he arrived at Ji Yuan's house, he immediately asked, "Ji Yuan, how did you offend the Fifth Prince?"
Nie Shiming came over overnight just to get to the bottom of things.
Because his uncle said that Jiyuan’s overseas assignment documents were withheld.
The Fifth Prince directly asked Ji Yuan to go to Dianzhou Prefecture!
He also specifically asked him to go there, saying that the place was suitable for talents like Ji Yuan.
The Right Assistant Minister tried to persuade him, but the Fifth Prince sneered, "Why? Do you think Ji Yuan is incapable of doing things in Dianzhou Prefecture?"
"Still think that my words are useless?"
How should he answer this?
The emperor is ill and the prince is under house arrest.
The Fifth Prince is the eldest.
At most, there will still be Prime Minister Li, but Prime Minister Li may retire.
The Right Assistant Minister wanted to ask the Emperor.
But asking about this kind of thing specifically made it seem like he had a very good relationship with Ji Yuan.
This is a taboo in official circles, and it is not good for him or Ji Yuan.
Besides, the Fifth Prince's reason was also very reasonable. He said that people were needed there at that time, and it would be a pity not to go with Ji Yuan's talent.
After a few years of experience, you will definitely achieve political achievements.
He even mentioned Minister Nie, saying, "Wasn't Zhengrong County also very poor before? After your nephew took over, it became prosperous. This time he went directly to Yingtian Prefecture."
What the Fifth Prince said makes sense.
But if you look closely, you will find that they are threatening you.
Zhengrong County is very poor, but its foundation was laid well by the previous county magistrate, Lin.
Nie Shiming went there and it was completely a bargain.
The other party's meaning was very clear.
If you tell the emperor, I will also tell my father.
Looking at these two things, my father will think who is right and who is wrong.
Minister Nie was directly pushed back. After returning home, he immediately asked his nephew to find Ji Yuan privately to ask him what the conflict between him and the Fifth Prince was.
Let Ji Yuan go find Prime Minister Li again, or go directly to the Fifth Prince to plead for mercy.
In short, there is a huge difference between going directly from Yingtian Prefecture to Dianzhou Prefecture.
Dianzhou Prefecture is located in a place with high mountains and long roads, and the climate is very different from that of the capital. It is even a place of exile if it is farther away.
Is this appropriate?
Yingtian Prefecture is different.
If the capital is the capital, it holds all the power in the world.
Yingtian Prefecture controls most of the economic lifeline of Tianqi State.
It's okay to say it's one day at a time.
Nie Shiming was very anxious.
Ji Yuan frowned. Why did the Fifth Prince react so strongly just because he didn't play Cuju?
Is this reasonable?
But overall, it seems reasonable.
Ji Yuan told Nie Shiming about Cuju, and Nie Shiming also couldn't believe it.
Just because Ji Yuan didn't play Cuju, the Fifth Prince was so angry? !
Are you so angry that you change Jiyuan’s assignment location to such a far place?
This fifth prince is too petty!
Nie Shiming said, "In short, although the Ministry of Personnel is going through the process to change your place of assignment, there is still one day of relaxation time. You can go and inquire about the situation tomorrow."
"If you can go to Yingtian Prefecture, you should go to Yingtian Prefecture."
Nie Shiming had already made up his mind. He had been there with Ji Yuan, so it was more than just a matter of looking after him. With Ji Yuan's keen insight into government affairs, he would definitely be able to accomplish something.
He can do it if he follows their lead.
Now suddenly he said that Ji Yuan would not go, and he was really panicked.
Furthermore, he felt indignant. After knowing the reason why Ji Yuan was targeted by the Fifth Prince, he found it even more ridiculous.
A top scholar in the era was treated so casually?
Think about it again, no matter how powerful the top scholar or Jinshi is, he is still a retainer of princes and nobles.
Treat people how they want to be treated.
Nie Shiming left with a sigh.
Wu Renhao and Monk Bai couldn't sit still anymore.
Monk Bai said, "I'll go and kick it, and try to calm the Fifth Prince down."
"I can do that, too." Wu Renhao said, "You go to Yingtian Prefecture first. When the Fifth Prince's excitement wears off, I'll come find you."
This seems to be the best approach.
The Fifth Prince called the three of them, but none of them went.
Now if we kill two of the three, at least we can save the era.
Ji Yuan shook his head.
He always felt that there was something strange about this matter.
It was just Cuju, which I hadn't played for a year. Why would the Fifth Prince be so angry after I refused?
This is too weird.
Ji Yuan said: "Even if you play football now, life won't be easy, so you'd better not go."
"There's still one day tomorrow, I'll go ask."
Ji Yuan told them not to worry, and said, "It's just Dianzhou Prefecture, maybe they have other intentions."
If he didn't have something to do in Yingtian Prefecture, it would really be okay for him to go to Dianzhou Prefecture.
The scenery there is beautiful, the climate is suitable, and the scenery is also beautiful.
Many high-yield crops can be grown there, not to mention that the climate there is also suitable for raising cattle, and the cattle there can be raised to be extremely strong.
Early the next morning, the news that Ji Yuan had been replaced by the Fifth Prince spread throughout the Hanlin Academy.
Even the Hanlin Academy was at a loss.
How did Ji Yuan offend the Fifth Prince?
The so-called Cuju game would definitely not be brought up, but someone said privately that the Fifth Prince wanted to recruit Ji Yuan and offered extremely generous conditions, which Ji Yuan directly refused.
The Fifth Prince thought Ji Yuan was on the Crown Prince's side, so he was particularly angry.
At this moment, Dong Kang stood in front of Ji Yuan, his eyes full of shock.
ah?
Ji Yuan is going to his hometown? !
When asked about his hometown, Dong Kang thinks it is excellent!
Except for the long distance, there is nothing wrong with it!
If ordinary students do not have as many fast horses as his family, they usually have to take part in the imperial examination in the next session.
It was probably that Huayuan passed the imperial examination in the 34th year, and generally speaking, one would take part in the metropolitan examination in the 35th year.
But most candidates do not have such fast horses and can only take the test again in 38 years.
This matter has been mentioned before, so you know how far Dianzhou Prefecture is from the capital and how difficult the road is to travel.
Being transferred there is too far away from the capital.
If the capital Shuntian Prefecture is the political center.
Yingtian Prefecture is the economic center.
What about Dianzhou Prefecture?
Now I have nothing to do with either!
Even the number of imperial examination admissions each year is less than other places!
Dong Kang was also worried about Ji Yuan.
The editors on the left and right next to him were just watching. Song Liuqun was the son of the Vice Minister of Works, and his father did not take sides, so he just felt sorry for Ji Yuan and did not say anything else.
Xie Zhifu is the fifth prince's cousin.
Xie Zhifu’s biological aunt is the Fifth Prince’s biological mother, the Imperial Concubine.
Because of this relationship, Xie Zhifu also felt that the Fifth Prince was going too far.
But he also knew his cousin, and if he coaxed him, everything would be easy to deal with.
If you lose face, it will be difficult to talk about it.
Xie Zhifu pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll go ask around later to see what's going on here."
This is the best he can do.
Ji Yuan thanked him, but didn't hold out much hope.
Throughout the entire Historian's Court, everyone looked at Ji Yuan with sympathy.
He was so unlucky. He was about to leave and had offended the Fifth Prince.
Number one scholar, so what if he is number one scholar?
Not to mention getting involved in this dispute.
Even if only the Fifth Prince couldn't stand it and wanted to punish him, would others have anything to say?
No matter how much the emperor values the top scholar, he is only valuing this humble official.
The Fifth Prince is his youngest son.
As long as it's not too excessive, is there any doubt about who the emperor will side with?
Furthermore, the emperor and the prince were fighting, but Ji Yuan was still on the prince's side. This clearly showed that he did not care about the emperor's face and was walking into trouble.
Poor thing.
Before, everyone envied him for being able to go to Yingtian Prefecture.
Ji Yuan did so many errands, going to the cabinet ministers and the Ministry of Personnel every day, and in the end he got this result.
Many Shujishi felt that the official positions they were assigned to were pretty good?
Isn’t it better than going to Dianzhou Prefecture?
It's pitiful, but there's nothing we can do.
That’s the Fifth Prince, who’s been quite popular lately.
Even Ji Yuan can’t do it, so is there anyone else who can?
As he was speaking, a minister came out to see Ji Yuan, and the look in his eyes also felt pity for him: "Ji Zhuangyuan, Wenyuan Pavilion asked you to go there."
Wenyuan Pavilion?
See, Ji Yuan still has a solution.
Wenyuan Pavilion took the initiative to come to us, maybe they can provide a solution.
Ji Yuan originally planned to go there as well.
He wanted to ask Prime Minister Li, at least to know why the Fifth Prince was so angry and whether he had any solution.
Now you can go directly there, which is naturally good.
Xie Zhifu thought about it and decided to go out to see what was going on with his cousin!
If Ji Yuan doesn't accept his recruitment, should he be sent to Dianzhou Prefecture?
Or is it really because of Cuju as people say?
It's even more ridiculous!
Ji Yuan went directly to Wenyuan Pavilion, and many people's eyes were on him along the way.
The people from the Jixian Hall next door were also looking at him. Chu Daxueshi's right-hand man said, "If you need anything, just ask."
Others were puzzled.
When the subordinates of Grand Secretary Chu said this, it must be what Grand Secretary Chu himself meant.
Lord Chu, do you think too highly of Ji Yuan?
This timely help seems to really value Ji Zhuangyuan.
But in this era, why are we still heading towards Wenyuan Pavilion?
Ji Yuan explained: "I have something to ask you."
This answer cannot satisfy everyone.
There are two Grand Secretaries in charge of the Jixian Hall, and one Grand Secretary Chu, who has extended olive branches many times.
There was also a Minister of Rites, Lord Liu, who once wanted to marry Ji Yuan, but was also rejected.
For a moment, everyone's faces became excited when they thought about these things.
What a top scholar! He really has no vision.
When things are good, people carry people in fancy sedan chairs.
The era is slightly declining, but it is different for some snobbish people.
Plus, Ji Yuan did reject Jixian Hall many times.
Ji Yuan glanced back.
This was not the situation he wanted to leave, but he seemed to be pushed forward.
Even when he met Prime Minister Li, the other party still had no expression.
After the others left the room, Li Shoufu said helplessly, "The Fifth Prince thinks that you are the tutor of the Emperor's eldest grandson but are unwilling to practice calligraphy with him, so he is very unhappy."
???
What does this have to do with anything?!
Ji Yuan said directly: "He came to talk to me about Cuju."
"You have to play Cuju and practice calligraphy. Your calligraphy has been praised by the Emperor, so the Fifth Prince wants to learn it."
When I went to find him, I only talked about Cuju!
If these two are said together, he will definitely say, Cuju is no longer played, but writing is okay.
Anyway, there are only a few days left before leaving.
What is going on?
Could it be that the person who delivered the message was wrong?
At this moment, Xie Zhifu looked at his cousin, the Fifth Prince, and said in shock: "Did your men pass on the wrong message?"
"The top scholar plays Cuju with you? What do you think? Even a Jinshi has to be respectable."
"Then there is still calligraphy practice?"
Xie Zhifu was silent.
I'm afraid practicing calligraphy is just a cover.
The people under the Fifth Prince knew their master's situation very well, so they were smart enough to only mention Cuju.
After a while, that's it.
Smart people can never guess what stupid people are thinking.
Because they don't have the same brain circuit at all!
Xie Zhifu said: "Now that you know Ji Yuan doesn't think that way, you can arrange for him to go to Yingtian Prefecture."
The Fifth Prince looked at him strangely: "My uncle said that since Ji Yuan is not going, then let you go. Yingtian Prefecture is better."
"Your name has been written down. It is you who will be appointed to the post in Yingtian Prefecture."
Xie Zhifu was now completely silent.
He really wanted to pry open his cousin's head to see what was inside.
Now, the logic outside finally makes sense.
The Fifth Prince took the opportunity to attack Ji Yuan, not only because he wanted Ji Yuan to surrender, but also because he had made preparations for both scenarios.
If Ji Yuan behaves obediently, he will be on the Fifth Prince's side in the future and will surely rise to a high position.
If he didn't obey, the good position of Yingtian Prefecture would be given directly to his cousin Xie Zhifu, who was the runner-up.
After all these events, we can only say that Ji Yuan is ignorant of the current situation, and the Fifth Prince is indeed good to his own people.
Then let Ji Yuan go to Xie Zhifu's position?
Sorry, such a good place just became vacant, someone came up right away.
Plus, the Fifth Prince was still really angry with Ji Yuan.
I don't know how the people around him instigated him, but they have already determined that Ji Yuan only flatters the prince and looks down on him. He is determined to make Ji Yuan suffer.
After Xie Zhifu came out from the Fifth Prince's place, he didn't know what to say.
The Ministry of Personnel had even sent the revised documents to Prime Minister Li.
The Ministry of Personnel is naturally not a monolithic entity.
The left and right assistant ministers each have their own power, and their subordinates are also complicated and intertwined.
But in the general direction, Prime Minister Li naturally has a firm grasp.
Prime Minister Li looked at several revised lists of overseas assignments, and then saw that the name of Uncle Xie’s son was already in Ji Yuan’s original position.
Looking at the candidates for several important positions, they are all suitable.
If one of them was randomly removed, it would not be fair to the people currently on the list.
Li Shoufu thought for a moment, then looked up at Ji Yuan and said, "Yingtian Prefecture is out of the question, but other places are possible."
"Do you have any other ideas?"
The people around Prime Minister Li were secretly shocked.
Logically speaking, it was already good enough to call Ji Yuan to discuss this matter.
Since we still give Ji Yuan a chance, why not let him choose another one?
Yes, although Yingtian Prefecture is the best, other places are not bad either.
There was obvious disappointment in Ji Yuan's eyes.
This was a rare display of emotion on his part.
Fortunately, it was taken back quickly.
If you don't go to Yingtian Prefecture, it's the same wherever you go.
Ji Yuan suddenly grasped something in a trance.
Don’t go to Yingtian Prefecture.
Who benefits most?
Xie Zhifu who directly filled his position?
Or someone else?
Wang Changdong’s name flashed through Ji Yuan’s mind.
When Chu Daxueshi realized the situation, his sharpness shocked the people around him.
That era's sharpness at this moment was no less than his.
If it's really as he thinks.
Who is behind Wang Changdong?
The Fifth Prince’s men?
No, it's too obvious.
Prime Minister Li, Grand Secretary of Chu?
Both of them seemed very kind.
But Prime Minister Li holds the power of the Ministry of Personnel, and Grand Secretary Chu is close to the Fifth Prince, so it would be a good opportunity for him to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
Or maybe, is it someone else in the court?
Whoever it is, Ji Yuan knows something.
The other party already knew what he was thinking.
A bone-chilling chill lingered in Ji Yuan's heart.
From a God's perspective, perhaps we already know who is behind this.
But Ji Yuan was in the middle of it, and the other party was hiding too deeply.
As for the other party, would he use this method to deal with him?
He was just a rookie official.
As for.
Who let him show his talent?
Ji Yuan forced a smile.
It doesn't matter.
He will soon find out who is behind this.
Ji Yuan had a tentative intention, and when he looked at Li Shoufu, he showed his intimacy: "Sir, I have decided to go to Dianzhou Prefecture."
Prime Minister Li, who was usually calm, was also shocked.
Going to Dianzhou Prefecture?
"If you don't go to Yingtianfu, there are other places like Taizhou, Yuyao, and Weizhou, which are all very good."
Ji Yuan was relieved, but he still didn't dare to be careless: "Go to Dianzhou Prefecture."
"Maybe the rest of what the Fifth Prince said is not true."
"But he said that it's hard there, but it's also easier to achieve political achievements, which is true."
Showing off your talents has brought him into trouble?
It doesn't matter, he can show a little more so that he can see everyone's reaction.
If you don't go to Yingtian Prefecture, it's almost the same going to other places.
He doesn't care.
He just wanted to spread the shocking news.
Besides, it’s better to be farther away.
Stay away to be truly safe.
Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light.
On the other side, Prime Minister Li was not disappointed by Ji Yuan's words. Instead, a kind of relief emanated from his eyes.
"Good, ambitious."
"If a man does not realize his ambition, his eight-foot body will be in vain."
"For four years, this officer trusted you."
Do you want to say that Prime Minister Li admires Ji Yuan?
Must appreciate.
Otherwise, he would not have stopped Scholar Chu when he did evil.
But if I were to truly accept this student, it would be now.
Little did he know that the student in his heart was still observing his expression.
Prime Minister Li didn't say anything else, but stood up, took out a map and handed it to Ji Yuan.
"This is a plateau. You may not be able to adapt to it when you first arrive. The place you are going to is a small state below. The people there are quite simple and honest."
"There are many mountains, many rivers, and many miasma."
"I think it will be more convenient with this map."
The map in Prime Minister Li's hand must be much more detailed.
There was war here in the past, and the court suppressed the rebellions several times, which led to the peace we have today.
This was the place that the Fifth Prince pointed out to him casually.
It was called Ning'an Prefecture.
The name speaks for itself, and it expresses the hope that this place will be peaceful and tranquil.
This is where Ji Yuan was assigned.
Li Shoufu said: "You can choose other places in Dianzhou Prefecture, it depends on you."
Ji Yuan looked at this place, which was the farthest place in Tianqi Kingdom, six thousand miles away from the capital.
Okay, okay, the person who assigned him to this place really didn't intend to let him come back alive.
So, who is really happy that he went to this place?
Prime Minister Li was really happy, but he had high expectations for himself, otherwise he would not have taken out the precious map.
Of course, he still needs to look at the map again. If the map is wrong, it is very likely that everyone will be doomed.
With Prime Minister Li in Jiyuan, most suspicions have been eliminated.
If emotions could be this subtle, Prime Minister Li is too scary.
The next move by Li Shoufu once again made Ji Yuan less suspicious: "I heard that you want to take a strong man from the military department with you. If you want to take him, I will give him to you now."
Ji Yuan’s eyes lit up.
Of course you should bring it!
If Wu Renhao hadn't taken him with him, he would probably have stayed here and still been playing Cuju.
Li Shoufu's thoughts were on another level: "The journey is long, taking him with us will also ensure safety."
When ordinary people see a huge strongman, they will basically walk around him.
Ji Yuan itself is not weak either, so this is safer.
Leave from Wenyuan Pavilion.
Ji Yuan went to Jixian Hall again, but Scholar Chu was not there, but his right-hand men remained.
Now the entire Jixian Hall seems to be unwelcoming to him.
Prime Minister Li doesn't seem to be the person behind the scenes.
Chu Daxueshi was nowhere to be seen again.
There are many forces in the court.
Or was this just a sudden idea of the Fifth Prince?
This is possible.
After all, he really couldn't guess what this person was thinking.
It's normal that Ji Yuan can't guess.
After all, everyone can only imagine what normal people think. No one can understand the Fifth Prince!
But no matter what, Ji Yuan's fate was changed because of his words.
Ji Yuan looked towards the palace.
So what if it changes.
He is not someone who is afraid of this.
Being far away now is actually a good thing.
If the other party wants to send someone to kill someone, it will take a year or two to go back and forth.
As for the person behind the scenes, Ji Yuan will find him, and soon.
It depends on the other party, how much they fear him and how much they value him.
When Ji Yuan returned to the Historian's Office, the news was already flying everywhere.
Xie Zhifu was still not there, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to come back.
Song Liuqun was already scolding him for being unethical and asking how he could take someone else's position.
era?
Ji Yuan is so pitiful.
It’s six thousand miles away from the capital. Even a thousand-mile horse will die on the road if it runs without sleep.
The situation there is extremely complicated.
Which official in the court is willing to go?
Going there will mean death.
Some people say that in the past, people could not ride horses fast because people from both the south and the north would have difficulty breathing.
So you have to go slowly, and even the horses will need some time to adapt.
Ji Yuan thought to himself that the altitude sickness must be different because the oxygen content in different places is different.
Throughout the day, many people knew what happened to this year's top scorer.
The emperor was lying on his sickbed. He was speechless after hearing the news. He called the fifth prince over and scolded him a few words.
The emperor didn't notice anything unusual, because he realized that his youngest son's brain circuit was not right. He was unhappy because Ji Yuan was relying on the prince.
No matter how you look at it, the changes in the era and land were just the other party's whim.
Even Ji Yuan was silent.
I think this is ridiculous, but I also think it's possible.
Back then, the Fifth Prince was able to pull over several people who had passed the martial arts examination to play Cuju, which showed that he had different ideas.
But he is the emperor's youngest son, so it doesn't matter what he does.
The top scholar, who was unattainable to others, was nothing more than a retainer of his family.
There is more than one top scholar in Tianqi Kingdom.
Some people in the court also felt fortunate, especially those who wanted to marry Ji Yuan.
But it also means to laugh at the joke.
If Ji Yuan clearly chooses to side with one side, everyone will help him.
If he had married the granddaughter of the Minister of Rites, the result would definitely not be like this. With the power of the Minister of Rites, he would definitely not have gone to Dianzhou Prefecture.
Or he could surrender to the Grand Secretary Chu, who would even let him go directly to Yingtian Prefecture to take a better position.
Prime Minister Li?
Prime Minister Li will help.
But he is also at the center of controversy.
If he spoke up, the Fifth Prince would definitely hate him even more. He would definitely work harder to help Chu Daxueshi fight for the position of Prime Minister.
That's not right. Prime Minister Li is in charge of the Ministry of Personnel and can easily send Ji Yuan to a good place.
Why come to Dianzhou Prefecture?
Or did Ji Yuan not join Prime Minister Li?
The emperor also had this guess in mind.
After becoming the top scholar, he didn't marry any relatives, didn't build relationships, didn't worship any teachers, and even didn't stand in the team?
"Too tender." said the emperor.
What a pity, although the article is well written, it also has some practical aspects.
But I was involved in it.
The emperor closed his eyes. Even though he knew that Ji Yuan was "innocent", he didn't intend to do anything.
Since it was the Fifth Prince who spoke, it would be difficult for him to refute him.
The balance had already begun to become unbalanced when the Crown Prince and his family came out during the Chinese New Year. This time, condoning the Fifth Prince's absurd behavior helped to keep things under control.
Whether Ji Yuan can come back depends on himself.
If he can come back, he will be another new force. It all depends on his real ability.
While people were talking outside, Ji Yuan was already packing his luggage.
He ran so far that he passed by Jianmeng Mansion.
The things I want to do this time are to pay homage to the grave of Mr. Zhao's mother and to sweep the graves of Xiao Jiyuan's parents.
Then we need to connect Xiao Huang.
He didn't have a fixed place to go before.
If you become an official now, you will serve for four years, so you must bring it with you.
I also need to help Monk Bai visit Qingyun Temple to comfort him.
The rest?
All that’s left is to take office!
Wu Renhao didn't think it was hard there either. He was also anxious to pack up and go back to Jianmeng Mansion! It was time to see his mother!
Even though I was just passing by.
But he can stay and accompany his mother for a while!
Monk Bai seemed to be hesitant to speak, but he still said, "Why don't you choose another place?"
"The mountains in Ning'an are high and the roads are long. Do you really want to go there?"
People outside thought that this matter could not be changed, but Monk Bai and his friends knew that Ji Yuan had a choice.
Ji Yuan shook his head: "That's the safest place for me."
Why?
Ji Yuan smiled and patted Monk Bai on the shoulder: "One day you will know."
“I need a lot of political achievements and I need to do a lot of things.”
Ji Yuan looked in the direction of the government office.
When he comes back, he will know who the enemy is.
Will I die on this road?
Will there be any accidents?
I guess.
But he was not afraid.
I just feel that if I stay here, or get closer to the capital, I will die faster. There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
Monk Bai was silent and sighed slightly.
Forget it, let him help pack up.
As they were talking, Nie Shiming also came over.
Nie Shiming was the one who frowned. He wanted to ask his uncle for help, but his uncle said that due to pressure from several parties, Ji Yuan’s assignment had been approved, so there was really nothing he could do.
How many people has Ji Yuan offended?
Nie Shiming said, "Don't worry, Xie Zhifu is not a smart man. This is his first time as an official, so he will definitely not be able to continue in Yingtian Prefecture."
Ji Yuan smiled: "This matter has nothing to do with him."
Nie Shiming opened his mouth, but could not say anything.
They agreed to go to Yingtian Prefecture together!
Nie Shiming didn't realize that he had already regarded Ji Yuan as his backbone.
When he was in Zhengrong County, he was drunk and Ji Yuan's integration of the local animal husbandry gave him inspiration.
Otherwise, this assignment would not have gone smoothly to Yingtian Prefecture.
It's no use saying this now. Nie Shiming brought a lot of good medicine and asked Ji Yuan to take care of himself. He even wanted to send him a horse, but was stopped by Dong Kang who came later.
Knowing that Ji Yuan was going to his hometown, Dong Kang kept sighing.
That place is nice, but it's sparsely populated and the animals and plants are sometimes very rude to people.
Even someone like him who was born and raised here would say it is difficult, let alone Ji Yuan.
Not to mention, their home is located a little further inland, in the middle of Dianzhou Prefecture, four or five thousand miles away from the capital.
He hadn't even been to Ning'an Prefecture, where Ji Yuan was going. That place was even farther away, ridiculously far away.
Dong Kang looked at the medicine Nie Shiming brought and said directly: "These are very useful, but local herbs will be better. It is best to give Ji Yuan the prescription and let him prepare it himself in the local area."
Furthermore: "There is no need for horses. When you arrive at Jianmeng Prefecture, Jiyuan, follow my family's convoy."
With the caravan from Dianzhou Prefecture leading the way, the journey will be safer, and at least any cases of acclimatization can be treated quickly.
Dong Kang said a lot, all of which were very useful. Ji Yuan thanked him again.
Ji Yuan didn't expect that although he didn't go to the Dianzhou Prefecture of his time and space in his previous life, he would have the opportunity in this life.
But it is definitely impossible to say that the places are exactly the same.
Although the customs and cultures are somewhat similar, many small countries and tribes are different.
The history of Tianqi Kingdom is also different, so don’t collect other ones.
So even if he had been there in his previous life, Dong Kang's experience is still the most trustworthy.
After saying so much, Dong Kang and the others were still very worried.
Ji Yuan said to them, "It's okay. Let's go home first. I'll send you a letter when I get home. When I really go to Ning'an Prefecture, I'll definitely tell you."
After everyone left, Ji Yuan said to Monk Bai, "When I send a letter to you, telling you that I will officially leave for Ning'an Prefecture, you must tell the other Shujishi the news."
Why?
Monk Bai was still confused, but nodded.
He has great trust in Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan smiled.
To lure the snake out of its hole, you naturally have to put out the bait.
The road from the capital to Jianmeng Mansion is relatively prosperous, so the cautious snake will definitely not come out of its hole.
When he stepped into Dianzhou Prefecture, he went to a place where few people had been.
The other party will definitely come out.
Ji Yuan hoped that he was not wrong.
The more the other party sees him as a future powerful enemy, the more likely they are to take action.
It was like taking him directly to Ning'an Prefecture, six thousand miles away.
Ji Yuan has a strange kind of confidence.
By then, we will know who is behind Wang Changdong.
Maybe he couldn't move the other person for a while.
But at least we know who the enemy is.
It is not the case that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, and we don’t even know when we are bitten to death.
On the other hand, it confirmed his guess.
Wang Changdong relies on his family or some force behind him.
The people behind him were the ones who helped him get rid of the charges and allowed him to rise to high positions.
Knowing this, Ji Yuan felt more at ease.
Take your time.
He has the patience to move forward step by step, and he has the patience to make himself stronger step by step.
The top scholar may still be manipulated by others.
What about a higher position?
He is waiting.
Ji Yuan closed his eyes.
No matter how big the matter is, it can’t delay your sleep!
January 22nd.
Most of the new scholars have left.
Ji Yuan prepared to return to Jianmeng Mansion with Wu Renhao, who had already obtained a pass, and rented horses.
When they were going back, Zhang Jinshi and others who were also from Jianmeng Mansion came to them and asked them to go back together.
The Zhang family has some influence in Jianmeng Mansion. Although he doesn't like to show off, when you see his family's convoy, you can understand how deep the background of his family is.
Ji Yuan also teased: "I am going to Dianzhou Prefecture now, do you still want to make friends with me?"
Jinshi Zhang was also once the top scorer in the Jianmeng Mansion. The two of them were both top scorers in the imperial examination and they had a sense of mutual admiration.
Mr. Zhang laughed: "With your ability, you will not stop here, right?"
"Anyone who stays away now is a fool. I am helping someone when they need it most."
As they were talking, someone from the Cheng family arrived.
In other words, the Cheng family has always been helping, but Lord Cheng himself is deeply involved in a lawsuit and ignores anyone who asks him.
Lord Cheng touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.
Mrs. Cheng, Miss Cheng, and the young master all came to see Ji Yuan off.
If we talk about mutual sympathy, these two families are the best, right?
It is also a timely help.
Cheng Yishan said: "The young are to be feared. Who knows if the future ones will not be as good as we are now?"
“The sage expects young people to achieve success and warns them of failure.”
She added: "I will drink wine with you and you will be lenient. Human feelings are as unpredictable as the waves."
The first sentence is the title of the essay for the Jiyuan County Examination.
The second sentence is reciting the first sentence of the article he wrote, which means that the saint wants young people to achieve something, so he belittles young people and looks forward to the achievements of later generations.
If you just listen to it this way, it seems like you are defending the person behind the scenes, saying that the other party is suppressing you because they expect you to succeed.
Actually, it was not the case. It was Miss Cheng who used Ji Yuan’s own words to comfort him.
Because it says later, when drinking with you, you should be lenient with yourself, and human nature changes like waves.
I'll fill your glass with wine, so you can feel comforted after drinking it.
The human heart is as fickle as the waves.
Ji Yuan looked at Miss Cheng and continued with a smile: "The Prime Minister is still holding his sword, while the senior officials of the rich families are laughing and tapping their hats."
"Thank you very much."
The two sentences that were not said at the end meant to be careful of the people around you and be wary of colleagues in the court.
There are four more lines in this poem, which neither of them said.
In short, don't be afraid of these things, and don't worry about the future.
It is better to be open-minded, indulge yourself in the mountains and rivers, sleep and eat, and you will feel better.
Why bother about worldly affairs? It is better to lie down and have a good meal.
Ji Yuan bowed, bidding farewell to everyone.
The four members of the Cheng family waved at him.
Monk Bai is going back to Ji’s house by himself.
Prime Minister Li's carriage was parked in the distance, and Ji Yuan had already said goodbye.
Ji Yuan rode his horse and said his final goodbye to everyone.
Passing by Jianmeng Mansion and his hometown, Ji Yuan did not feel relaxed.
Fortunately, there was one thing that really made him happy.
Little Yellow!
This time I want to take Xiao Huang with me!
No matter what, he still gained something from this trip.
At least I got the top score in the exam.
He came to the capital in February of the thirty-eighth year of Huayuan.
He left again in February of the thirty-ninth year.
This year has been a bit too exciting.
Ji Yuan said to Wu Renhao who was also riding a horse: "You are quite good at spearmanship, can you teach me?"
Not to mention Wu Renhao was shocked, even Zhang Jinshi who returned home was shocked.
Mr. Zhang directly said what he was thinking: "Ji Yuan, do you want to be a versatile person?"
First in literary examination.
Come back and take the first place in the martial arts exam? !
Are you still human!
I really don't want to be a colleague with someone like you! You're going to kill me!
