Great Wei scholar

Then, he opened his mouth slowly.

"Announce him to enter the court tomorrow."

The empress opened her mouth and made this decision.

"The slaves obey the order."

"By the way, Your Majesty, when Xu Qingxiao was going to Suzaku Avenue, he passed West Street and saw a merchant extorting money from people. Xu Qingxiao acted righteously and hit a stone, which caused the merchant's container to collapse and lost a lot of money."

Wan'er continued to speak, adding some details.

"Oh?"

The Great Wei Empress was a little surprised, and it seemed that she was even more surprised than Xu Qingxiao opened a school.

"Okay, I got it."

The Great Wei Empress spoke, as if thinking of something, she regained her composure.

"The servant is going to deliver the order now."

Wan'er spoke.

"Well, by the way, in two days, they won't go to court. Let's take a break and let them go to court when I think it's time to go to court."

The Great Wei Empress spoke, Wan'er nodded, and quickly left the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

She has become accustomed to it. Every once in a while, the empress does not go to court, and she is often alone in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and it is also very weird. She doesn't know exactly where the weirdness is, but she just feels a little weird.

But it's not her turn to take care of the emperor's affairs, so just do as she pleases.

That's it.

The queen's will spread quickly.

The next day.

Just before dawn, Xu Qingxiao was awakened by a knock on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw a handsome eunuch in his twenties, who looked at Xu Qingxiao with a smile on his face and said.

"Mr. Xu, I have ordered you to go to court tomorrow, Mr. Xu, please remember that you will be waiting outside the palace at Yinshi, and someone will take you with you."

The eunuch said that he came to write a letter.

Hearing this news, Xu Qingxiao was a little excited, but after adjusting her mentality a little, Xu Qingxiao nodded and said.

"Thank you, father-in-law, and I will trouble you to make a trip."

Xu Qingxiao thanked him, and at the same time took out a bank note and handed it to the latter. There were a lot of bank notes, a total of 50 taels. The reason why he was so willing was not because the other party was from the palace.

To be honest, this kind of eunuch may not seem to have much power, but in fact he is very powerful. It is absolutely worthwhile to make friends with some banknotes.

However, the latter was a little shocked when he saw Xu Qingxiao's action.

Especially seeing the bank note that Xu Qingxiao handed over, with a denomination of fifty, I was even more terrified.

"This, this, Mr. Xu, no, no."

The latter was a little apprehensive and did not dare to accept it.

"Father-in-law is tired, and you keep the mere small money, it's a little sympathy from Xu."

Xu Qingxiao insisted on giving it, but she was a little curious in her heart. It was only 50 taels. Is it necessary?

"This... this...Mr. Xu, I, Mr. Li, feel very honored. I am honored by Mr. Xu. If you go to the palace, if you don't understand anything, come and ask me, Mr. Li. I, Li Xian, will never refuse."

Li Xian accepted the bank note, tears were about to come out, which made Xu Qingxiao really curious.

50 taels, right?

Putting it in Ping'an County must be an astronomical figure, but this is Kyoto, and you are the father-in-law in the palace.

But no matter how surprised he was in his heart, Xu Qingxiao said very politely on the surface: "Eunuch Li is being polite, let's go slowly."

After saying this, Eunuch Li nodded, took a deep breath, hid his tears and left.

He was indeed touched, after all, this was the first time someone gave a gift to the eunuch, to be precise, it was the first time he received a gift.

After Li Xian left, Xu Qingxiao didn't think much about it, washed up a bit, and planned to go out.

I went to An Guogong's mansion yesterday, and today I still have to visit other princes one by one.

Although everyone has met, but this is the invitation of An Guogong, I still have to go to visit.

Li Guogong, Jin Guogong, Qi Guogong, including Liehou who met yesterday, Xu Qingxiao all visited the mansion one by one.

When it was almost time, everyone probably came back to rest. Xu Qingxiao left the inn, bought an extra fan, and set off quickly after writing.

The princes and princes of the state visited each other, Xu Qingxiao came here, and the princes and princes of the state were very happy, especially for several princes, they never thought that Xu Qingxiao would come to visit them specially.

This sophistication made everyone appreciate Xu Qingxiao even more.

The fans were given away, and each person gave each other a hand, and the other party also laughed heartily. Every prince and lieutenant called Xu Qingxiao to stay for dinner. If it wasn't for the meal time, Xu Qingxiao would not have stayed at all. Each had a light meal.

After all, a Duke or Liehou has to visit for half an hour, and it is impossible to just sit and leave.

However, this visit to Xu Qingxiao has also gained a lot, and he also understands some of the rules of the court, and they also made an appointment to go together tomorrow, so as not to be isolated and helpless.

Do it all.

It's midnight.

Xu Qingxiao took a shower, and changed into a set of Confucian robes that she had prepared after she was clean.

Thinking about going to court tomorrow, to be honest, it is impossible not to be a little nervous.

So Xu Qingxiao has been adjusting his mentality.

When it was Choushi, Xu Qingxiao's mentality became much calmer. He tidied up his clothes and walked out of the inn.

The place to go to court is the main gate, walk from Suzaku Avenue, as Marquis Xinwu said yesterday, Xu Qingxiao made a special trip, so he is familiar with the road.

Ugly at four o'clock.

It was still dark.

Xu Qingxiao came to the Meridian Gate early.

The Meridian Gate has a main entrance and two side entrances. The left entrance is for officials to enter the court. The main entrance is for the emperor or the number one scholar, but the number one scholar can only enter once.

For example, if you want to send an intelligence letter such as a thousand-mile express, you can go directly this way.

It was four quarters of the ugly hour, before dawn, and the officials would not go to court so early. Xu Qingxiao came early for the first time because he was afraid of delaying the time.

It was almost Yin time, and the officials would appear here one after another to wait.

After waiting for two quarters of an hour.

There is a figure coming.

Seven or eight people, wearing Confucian official robes, walked slowly, and Xu Qingxiao recognized the leader.

It is Chen Xin Daru.

Seeing Chen Xin Daru, Xu Qingxiao didn't feel embarrassed or hesitant, but walked over generously and bowed to Chen Xin.

"Student Xu Qingxiao, met Chen Xin, Chen Daru."

These people were chatting about something, and suddenly saw a figure approaching, and even announced their family name, and everyone froze in place for a while.

"Xu Qingxiao?"

"It's really you."

"Qingxiao, long time no see."

Seeing Xu Qingxiao, Chen Xin smiled. He is a great Confucian of Zhu Sheng's lineage, but he has an innate affection for Xu Qingxiao. So many things happened before, Chen Xin actually wanted to say a few words for Xu Qingxiao.

But the situation made him unable to speak out, and he knew it was useless to speak out, so he remained silent in the end.

Seeing Xu Qingxiao now, and Xu Qingxiao taking the initiative to pay respects, made Chen Xin feel a little ashamed.

While the other Confucian officials showed surprise, they looked at Xu Qingxiao and couldn't help whispering to themselves.

"Is this Xu Qingxiao?"

"He still has the nerve to pay homage to Confucian Chen Xin?"

"Hmph, I didn't expect to see such a person so early in the morning. It's bad luck."

The other Confucian officials were different, they didn't have the same affection for Xu Qingxiao that Chen Xin had.

"quiet."

Chen Xin Daru turned around and reprimanded, and everyone was silent for a while.

"Qingxiao, His Majesty called you in today, you have to remember, talk less and listen more, after you leave the court, if you have nothing to do, come to my house, I will have a good talk with you."

When Chen Xin opened her mouth, she was gentle and refined, with a very calm demeanor.

"Well, I came here yesterday, but I didn't visit my husband's house. It's because it's late at night. After I leave the court, I will visit naturally."

Xu Qingxiao nodded and smiled.

Chen Xin also smiled slightly, but didn't say much.

After all, this is outside the palace, so it's better not to talk nonsense about some things.

Soon, An Guogong and others also appeared one after another. After they saw Xu Qingxiao, they were very enthusiastic, and even took the initiative to pull Xu Qingxiao aside, asking some questions.

The meaning is to show others that Xu Qingxiao belongs to them.

"Brother Xu, it's so early."

"Brother Xu, are you here so early?"

"Nephew Qingxiao is indeed a good drinker. It's not bad that he can still wake up after drinking so much."

"Nephew Qingxiao, are you nervous going to court for the first time? Hahahaha!"

"Brother Xu, I didn't expect you to wake up so early? I thought you were going to be drunk yesterday."

"Hahaha, I said Brother Xu will definitely come earlier today. Sure enough, I'm right?"

Figures appeared one after another, Qi Guogong, Xin Guogong, Lu Guogong, Xinwuhou, Guangpinghou, and Yangduhou appeared one after another. After seeing Xu Qingxiao, they laughed loudly, looking very close.

It surprised other officials who came one after another.

One was surprised Xu Qingxiao, and the other was surprised. Xu Qingxiao has only been here for a day, so why does he seem to be familiar with this group of military officers?

Afterwards, the Confucian officials also basically arrived. After seeing Xu Qingxiao, they whispered more and more, and even looked unkindly.

Several great Confucian scholars appeared, glanced at Xu Qingxiao, but said nothing, but it was impossible for Xu Qingxiao not to feel the extra hostility.

At this moment, a voice sounded.

"Xuan! All officials enter the court!"

Chapter 93: The struggle for official positions, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, the Empress Announcement

The sound of hundreds of officials entering the court sounded.

Everyone entered one after another, with An Guogong and others leading them, Xu Qingxiao inexplicably felt the benefits of the team, at least he would not leave alone.

Entering the palace, Xu Qingxiao saw a familiar figure, it was Li Xian, Eunuch Li, who was waiting inside the palace gate, and when he saw himself with An Guogong and others, he immediately smiled.

Apparently he was worried that he didn't know the rules of entering the court, so he waited for him here. Now that he was with An Guogong and others, he didn't come to lead the way.

This Li Xianren is still good, or it can be said that the money is worth it.

Smiling gently at the other party, Xu Qingxiao counted it as a thank you, and Eunuch Li Xian also bowed slightly to Xu Qingxiao, and then left.

"Nephew Qingxiao, do you know him?"

Duke An was keenly aware of this and asked curiously.

"I know, this father-in-law came to deliver a message yesterday, thinking that he is from the palace, so he was more polite."

Xu Qingxiao replied.

Just as soon as these words were said, the voice of Guangping Hou sounded.

"It's just a group of eunuchs, why not be polite, Brother Qingxiao, you are just being too cautious, brother, let me remind you, this kind of eunuchs have no power, and there is no need to treat them so well."
