Someone always wants me to be a courtier [Rebirth]

It was mid-winter, and snow as big as a goose feather fell in pieces, covering the entire Jinling with a layer of snow-white decoration.

It was freezing cold on the palace road, and there were still low-ranking servants in robes that were not considered warm, and were vigorously sweeping the snow with brooms in hand.Inside the Tianlu Pavilion, however, there was a sense of warmth and harmony. The earth dragon had been on fire half a month earlier, and there was not even the slightest wisp of smoke in the huge palace. Instead, it was filled with a faint smell of books and ink.

Xie Qi was bored looking at the lecturer not far away who was holding a book and shaking his head while reading it with great interest, he was a little confused.

This is the most comfortable winter he has spent in so many years, without the embarrassment of the inner government, and he does not have to endure the loneliness of being dull monks except Yun Yi, and there is no shortage of food, clothing, worship, and flattery.

He should be content.

Looking at the red court uniform on the lecturer in front of him, Xie Qi thought silently.

The fact that the emperor was 16 years old and hadn't formally left the cabinet to study once made the senior officials in Jinling scratch their heads.

With regard to the cognition of giving Xie Qi'e basic cultural literacy, it is rare that the civil and military opinions of the Manchu Dynasty were unanimous, and the most luxurious lineup was dispatched.

Right chancellor Su Yanzhao was added the rank of Taishi, Zhongshu Shilang Gu Ranzhi led Taifu, and four other well-educated people were selected as lecturers. As for Xie Qi's study of classics and history, calligraphy and painting books, he went through a complicated selection , to ensure a sufficient fit.

When he first learned that Su Yanzhao was the new Grand Master, Xie Qi resisted a little.

He couldn't tell how he felt about Su Yanzhao, he could only be sure that it wasn't pure disgust and love.

He couldn't help but feel awkward when he thought that the right minister, who was good-looking but very manipulative and ruthless in the market rumors, wanted to preach to him.

But Xie Qi soon discovered... In fact, it doesn't matter how he feels about Su Yanzhao.

Because whether it is Su Yanzhao, the right minister, or Gu Ranzhi, the minister of Zhongshu, they are very busy with government affairs on weekdays.

Gu Ranzhi is alright, he can always see him two or three times in ten days, and he does his best in class, Xie Qi has a good impression of him, and gets along well with him.

Su Yanzhao is very bad. Xie Qi has been officially enthroned for almost two months. He has come to Tianlu Pavilion three times in total, two hours each time. One of them was called away by two urgent memorials in the middle of a class and never came back. .If it weren't for his well-prepared appearance every time, Xie Qi would have suspected that he really disliked himself.

This grand master is not competent at all!

The bland reading sound of the lecturer continued, Xie Qi was fascinated by the pot of plum blossoms placed by the window.

The finished products are meticulously handled by the gardeners in the palace, and the clever maids trim them once or twice every three to five days.

However, someone does not have that kind of leisure.

One, two, three...

Su Yanzhao is coming, not coming, coming, not coming today...

Xie Qi hadn't finished counting when he was attracted by a burst of cold air. He turned his head and saw a boy about sixteen or seventeen striding in. He was wearing a fox fur cloak, wrapped around A lot of cold wind.

The young man acted with a bit of turmoil that young people are used to, walked a few steps quickly before entering the door, knelt down to Xie Qi, and said loudly: "I see your Majesty, I am late for morning class, Your Majesty forgives my sins." After a short pause, he turned to speak Officer; "Excuse me, lecturer."

Ren Huan is the youngest son of the Marquis of Xiangyang, Renqi and Princess Heshengda.

The relationship between the waiter and the king is extraordinary, Su Yanzhao's original intention was to choose someone from a noble background who can be his confidant, and it can be considered as Xie Qi's preparation in advance, and he will have a knowledgeable help when he leaves in the future.

But Yun Yi was forced to go in. Others would not believe that Xie Qihui spent so much trouble for a servant, and it was all on his head. Based on the principle of not being too ugly, Su Yanzhao didn't intervene and there was only one servant left. choice.

Unexpectedly, after many choices, Ren Huan was picked. Although he had always been at odds with the Marquis of Xiangyang, Su Yanzhao could only pinch his nose and admit it.

Xie Qi still doesn't understand the twists and turns in the court for the time being, and he doesn't like Ren Huan very much, but the reason is very simple.

Ren Huan is the youngest son of the Marquis of Xiangyang. He has an elder brother who is very talented to support the family. He also carries his mother's title on his back. You can't hide everything in your heart.

He was naturally courteous and courteous to Xie Qi, but he showed his true nature to Yun Yi and the servants in the palace.Originally, this was not a serious problem, but Xie Qi grew up in Huai'en Temple since he was a child. He was fed up with the pain of being bullied and trampled down.

However, Xie Qi would never embarrass him even if he was facing the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion behind Ren Huan, so the two seemed very close on weekdays.

Seeing Ren Huan's kneeling appearance with lowered eyebrows, Xie Qi glanced at the displeased lecturer, secretly smiled inwardly, with his face still calm, and said gently; "No," he waved his hand to beckon the waiter Gong'e came over and ordered: "Change the clothes of Lord Ren Xiaohou, and add a bowl of ginger soup, don't catch the cold."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ren Huan kowtowed again before standing up, and served by the maid who stepped forward.He rushed to Tianlu Pavilion in a hurry, and rushed to the main hall as soon as he entered the door. He didn't even have time to take off the heavy fox fur on his body. The hall was warm, and his brows were already sweating at this moment.

Changing clothes, serving ginger soup, and setting up desks, a series of actions came down, and there was a lot of movement.

Xie Qi watched the Taoist official's face getting darker and darker, he didn't speak, just looked at him indifferently.The lecturer couldn't hold back, he twitched the beautiful beard on his chin, put the scroll down, bowed to Xie Qi, and said: "Your Majesty, the content of today's morning class has been roughly finished, you and the two young masters It won't be a big problem to review it one or two more times. I will retire."

As soon as the lecturer left, Tianlu Pavilion, which was originally filled with a strong learning atmosphere, suddenly became more youthful.The day's class ended early, and Yun Yi was very happy. He threw away the scroll in his hand, stood up and ate two pieces of snacks that had been prepared for a long time, and asked vaguely: "Brother Huan, why is it late?" After such a long time, the lecturer's complexion is not very good just now, if he goes out and talks..."

Those who chose Xie Qi to be an official lecturer were all famous Confucians in the world, their official positions may not be high, but their reputations are prominent. If they really want to go out and publicize Ren Huan's bad character, the Xiangyang Marquis's mansion can protect them, but Ren Huan's Reputation is bound to suffer.

Ren Huan took the ginger soup with a smile, spooned it into his mouth, and the sweet ginger taste spread instantly.

"Princess De and my mother used to be handkerchiefs, and they have been very close for many years. The king has been in confinement for several months, and Princess De came to my mother and cried. Get out."

Xie Qizheng took the copybook and put it in Linzi. He lived in Huai'en Temple for many years and read a lot of ancient books, but his handwriting was not good enough due to the lack of advice from unknown masters, so he could barely count it neatly.

Hearing Ren Huan talk about Concubine De, his hands trembled, and the words he had just written were completely destroyed in an instant.

The joy of the success of the little calculation disappeared in a moment, Xie Qi raised his eyebrows, motioned the servant to put away the copybook, got up and put a piece of snack into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it slowly, and then followed Ren Huan Then asked; "Princess De?"

Even if he has no real power in his hands and has heard about major events in the court, Xie Qi is no stranger to the title King De.

In terms of seniority, King De is the youngest son of Emperor Wenzong, younger brother of Emperor Ruizong, and his uncle.

In terms of age, in fact, King De didn't care how old he was.

It's just that King De, as an old man of Wen Zong, has been honored and favored since he was a child. He is very different from Xie Qi in the past. The two have only met a few times, and they have a vague impression of each other.

When his elder brother came to the throne, he respected this uncle very much. In addition, King De had a lot of power in his hands, and there were faint signs of No. 1 in the ruling and opposition parties.

At that time, Su Yanzhao's new Right Prime Minister was in the limelight, and the two entered the ring without any surprise.

As for the result... Xie Qi recalled all kinds of things in Huai'en Temple. King De's downfall said that it was not Su Yanzhao's handwriting, and he would not believe it if he was killed.

Ren Huan has been carefully observing Xie Qi's face, not aware of any displeasure, he took another mouthful of ginger soup and put it into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Isn't it? Speaking of King De, too... Although the late Emperor ordered It made him think about his mistakes behind closed doors, there is no time limit, and he must have withdrawn after thinking about it for a while. Now, it seems to be a lifetime... "

"It's true that Su Xiang obeyed the late emperor's will and never changed it. It's just that it's too fair, which inevitably makes people think too much. Isn't that the case with Princess De?"

The words were said with a smile, and there was still a bowl of ginger soup in his hand, but Xie Qi could taste some meaning from Ren Huan's words, he also smiled, and conveniently took another piece of pastry and stuffed it into his eyes. Yun Yi, who was holding the plate but was a little shy, said nothing for a long time.

"Cough cough...cough cough..." The three stayed in Tianlu Pavilion until lunch time, Ren Huan took the lead to leave, and Yun Yi coughed violently when he was far away.

"Your Majesty...why do you keep feeding me cakes? I'm in a hurry..." The half-grown boy kept coughing, his mouth was vague, Xie Qi felt a little amused when he was distressed, and hurriedly gave Yun He also patted his back and asked someone to serve tea.

It took a long time for Yun Yi to really recover, glanced at Xie Qi, propped his chin and said, "Your Majesty is playing charades with Young Master Ren, even if I can't hear it, I can't keep stuffing it with cakes."

Xie Qi glanced at Yun Yi's pure appearance that could be seen to the end at a glance, opened his mouth and didn't know where to start, and he opened his mouth after a while, but what he said was irrelevant to the topic just now: "Su Xiang You haven't been to Tianlu Pavilion for almost half a month, and in a few days, go to the Political Affairs Hall and ask Prime Minister Su about his latest arrangements."

Yun was also taken aback.

"Didn't Prime Minister Su ask for leave?"
