Chapter 126: Sincerity in the East Palace
There had been two factions in the East Palace: The one opposing Xin Qiwu believed that since Count Sinan was in good relations with King Jing and connected to the pri must be close to the second prince As for the pri himself from the East Palace, it must mean that the Fan household ith the second prince’s faction Xin Shaoqing adamantly rejected the idea To him, Fan Jian was not the type of official who could be swayed so easily by King Jing and the prime minister
Deep inside the palace, Xin Qiwu prostrated in front of the book cha enough so that he didn’t look too ridiculous
”Youout from behind the curtain
Xin Qiwu stood up, his arms by his side He didn’t dare move He had been here a few ti of pressure He eating, either froardless, he didn’t dare wipe away his sweat
Behind the curtain ca period of silence, the eood Since those guys in the north wouldn’t settle down, this is very good; you’ll have to speak loudly for me”
Xin Qiwu replied in a bright voice, ”Yes, Your Majesty!”
The emperor’s voice suddenly had an odd tone to it ”You made Minister Fan’s son your deputy?”
Xin Qiasn’t expecting the emperor to be so interested in Deputy Fan, and sweated a bit more He answered respectfully, ”Indeed”
The eued, ”Oh, I had already appointed hi Telu Temple?”
While the eentle tone, Xin Qias so nervous he could faint Not daring to hide anything, he answered truthfully, ”I had recently come to the East Palace to study per Your Majesty’s orders During that ti the envoy from Northern Qi Since Fan Xian was involved with, and because of his reputation in the capital, I thought it would be best to have a scholar on our side as well As Your Majesty knows, there’s a certain Zhuang Mohan in Northern Qi’s envoy”
”Hm” The emperor really admired this official’s franknessHe was never afraid of people conspiring in the Imperial court, but those factions needed beto do so I leave all the authority over the matter to you today Even if it’s the prince, you do not have to ask for permission”
”Yes” The link between Xin Qiwu and the prince was never hidden froned specifically as a servant in the East Palace
The eain He seehtly ”How did Fan Xian do?”
Xin Qiwu didn’t dare steal Fan Xian’s merit and answered honestly, ”The files Your Majesty is reading right noas analyzed by Deputy Fan”
”analyzed?” For sory ”This is getting more and more absurd!”
Xin Qias terrified; he didn’t knohy His Majesty becary But fortunately, it didn’t appear to be related to negotiations After Xin Qiithdrew from the book chamber, the emperor parted the curtain and walked out There was a bitter ser on his inti face, as if to say, ”It can’t be helped” He ordered a servant, ”Su to the palace”
This owner of Qing, a ed man who held the most authority in the world, walked out of the book chaazed up at the moon He smiled and said to himself, ”A sharp tool which could benefit the nation, instead of using it to help Honglu Teping, if I still
don’t tap you once or twice, you’re really going to give ”
Just what caliber of a person was the eed to immediately pick up the presence of the Overwatch Council But his expression was no longer angry Rather, he found it so the prince win over the Fan household The prince finally displayed some political wisdom, and His Majesty was a bit happy
An intense quarrel was developing in the East Palace between Shaoqiang Xin Qiwu and Guo Baokun The topic, of course, concerned the low-ranking Fan Xian One could tell how intense the quarrel was from the look on their faces
Xin Qiwu gave Guo Baokun a condescending look and said, ”As a civil servant, I must obey His Majesty’s wishes and aid the prince in his acco, I need to find a few talented individuals Functionary Fan Xian is famous in the capital and has a fine deer to the palace The prince should accept such a distinguished individual instead of refusing over a certain someone’s tantrum”
Guo Baokun laughed coldly, ”You think I only reet the relationshi+p between the Fan ’s manor Fan Xian will soon become the son-in-law of the prime minister Are you that unclear as to which side the prime minister leans?”
