The Regent's Tender Darling

Regent's Palace.

On an early spring day, the warm sun shone through the window but it was slightly cool. Lin Jiaojiao put on a thin purple jacket and skirt, and sat alone in front of the window, holding her sore left cheek, staring straight out of the window in trance.

The pear blossom tree in the courtyard, which looks like a dead tree, has sprouted small buds. It is expected to bloom. When it blooms, there will be a pear blossom snow in Shuanghuaju.

The sound of burning charcoal in the room was heard from time to time. Xuemei sat by the stove to warm the medicine and sniffed. The medicine prescribed by Yu Lao had a fragrant smell, but the empress said it was very bitter.

Seeing that the medicine was getting hot, I held the thick cloth and took the bowl down, went to the window and put it on the small table.

"Your Majesty, you have the remaining half of the bowl. It's time to drink it after resting for so long."

It has been more than an hour since morning, and the empress has been sitting here for more than an hour, saying nothing, just staring out the window in a daze.

The queen must be worried about what happened yesterday.

So he comforted her in advance: "Mother, it doesn't matter even if this doesn't work out. Let's discuss it in the long term. We can't rush things step by step."

Anyway, she felt that this matter was unlikely to succeed. The Minister of Civil Affairs recommended Prince An as the chief examiner. Not to mention that the prince would not agree, I was afraid that the entire court would not agree.

Of course, these were all her wild guesses, but her guesses were not unreasonable. Even she, a maid, knew how important the position of examiner was.

Therefore, it is indeed difficult to give the position of examiner to An Wang.

Lin Jiaojiao's eyes moved slightly, she glanced at Xuemei and then continued to stare out the window. She was not worried about Wang An.

After all, King An was talented and learned, and he was a relative of the emperor and the country. At a time when various ministries were in trouble, and the imperial examination was an important matter for the country, the position of examiner naturally had to be safe.

For the entire court and even the royal family, King An, King Duan and King Qi are the most suitable.

In her previous life, the post of examiner fell to Prince Duan. A few days ago, she had never figured out how Prince Duan got the position of examiner from the prime minister. She only understood after hearing the explanation from the Minister of Civil Affairs.

It turned out that it was just because the prime minister was old.

Among the three current princes of the Danan royal family, Duan Wang Yan Sihan is not trusted and will definitely not be the first choice.

After all, in the previous life, Prince Duan became the examiner because Yan Sihan was so angry with the young emperor that he didn't go to court that day, so Prince Duan got the chance.

Next is King Qi.

She didn't know much about King Qi, and he was someone she had ignored recently. She only knew that he had a notoriously irritable personality and was not willing to give face to anyone.

The most famous thing is to send the people sent by the Queen Mother back to the Queen Mother while they are hot after they have finished that night.

With such a temperament, naturally there is no need to say more.

Finally, there is King An. Letting King An take part in the battle can obviously reduce the probability of accepting bribes and going through the back door in the imperial examination.

Firstly, King An is newly appointed and it is difficult to curry favor with him. Secondly, King An does not need money or corrupt officials now. What he needs now is clean talents.

Yan Sihan will naturally take this into consideration and will definitely impose restrictions on King An after he takes office.

She put Prince An's monkey on a leash in the peach forest, and she could choose whatever good peach she wanted.

After the success of this matter, King An and the previous King An changed their stories.

A prince who has a position in the court has no chance to make irresponsible remarks. All the past events will become a "little-known" history.

For An Wang, this was a turning point in his life, and it was also the opportunity that An Wang had been waiting for.

I hope this child can take advantage of the water and never forget the man who dug the well. If not, the principle of Xiao He and Xiao He, which succeeds and fails, also applies to An Wang.

So she was not worried about King An at all, she was worried about her toothache.

Not only does it hurt, but I also have to take medicine. This medicine contains Coptis chinensis, which is an extremely bitter medicine. After drinking a bowl, the bitter taste in your mouth cannot be suppressed no matter how much candied fruit you drink.
