"Although I have been trying to persuade the fourth sister for a long time, the fourth sister has an arrogant personality and is still more willing to marry into a high-ranking family. From a poor family like Wen Juzi, no matter how talented and potential he is, if he wants to be prominent, he will have to wait too long. , the fourth sister is not willing to marry."

Perhaps because he felt that he had failed Sheng Changbai's request, Hai Chaoyun's face did not look very good.

"You don't need to take it too seriously. I didn't have high expectations for this matter, and I asked you to persuade me. I just hope that my fourth sister will be willing to marry as soon as possible."

If Mo Lan really wants to pursue her love, Sheng Changbai may still support Mo Lan.

The current situation is that Mo Lan simply wants to cling to the powerful and hates the poor and loves the rich, so it is impossible for Sheng Changbai to support Mo Lan.

If you can't dissuade her from this matter, don't dissuade her. According to your parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, and the tradition of this era, marrying off Mo Lan is the end of it.

Wen Yanjing was also Sheng Hong's carefully selected son-in-law, and he was not trying to trick Mo Lan.

Considering Sheng Hong's preference for Mo Lan, Mo Lan's dowry will not be too small.

A few hundred acres of good paddy fields and a few shops would be enough for Molan to live a lifetime of food and clothing.

I wonder if Lin Zongshuang, Mo Lan and her daughter will accept their fate in marriage.

In fact, Sheng Changbai is not afraid of leaving the capital.

Minglan has more peace of mind here, and He Hongwen, who doesn't need to take the imperial examination, has a lot of free time.

After all, the Queen Mother has been a queen for decades and is much more familiar with the officials in the court than Zhao Zongquan.

He is also very proactive. Everyone else is busy studying for their studies and has little time to look for girls. Only He Hongwen thinks about going to the Sheng family to pick up girls all day long.

Two are old friends of the Sheng family, and two are the future sons-in-law of the Sheng family. The Sheng family has no loss in this imperial examination.

Even officials like Sheng Hong, who were promoted by Zhao Zongquan, were grateful to Zhao Zongquan, but they could not completely work for Zhao Zongquan. They would stand unprincipled for Zhao Zongquan above the court.

Now that the emperor had abandoned the queen mother, he began to cooperate with the prime minister again and wanted to take back the power in the hands of the queen mother.

There should be fighting and fighting in the court, but the imperial examination is coming anyway.

His character and character are basically consistent with the rumors.

After such a period of time, Sheng Changbai discovered that the current situation of the three pillars in the court was not necessarily a bad thing.

After two months of inspection, Sheng Hong was basically satisfied with the character of several candidates.

"In the official family, although the system of the Queen Mother behind the curtain to listen to the government has always existed in our dynasty, after the government has stabilized the government, the Queen Mother should return the power to the emperor."

"Hit again!"

The three orchids in the family had arrangements, and Sheng Changbai turned his attention back to the court.

With the Jade Seal in hand, the Queen Mother's basic rights are guaranteed to a certain extent.

One of the two who missed was his son Sheng Changfeng.

Since there was no obvious conspicuous candidate in Bianliang who could participate in the performance, Sheng Changbai no longer had much interest in the position of censor.

If you want to get the jade seal back, you have to go there yourself.

No one wants to see an emperor who has monopoly power, can do whatever he wants, and has no restrictions.

If he didn't want the Queen Mother to continue to listen to politics behind the curtain, Zhao Zongquan would of course think about how to get rid of the Queen Mother.

"Don't worry, who got hit? Did Saburo get hit?"

He probably presided over a lot of ceremonies and did a lot of things that only an emperor could do. Many people in the world also knew that he was the new emperor.

Although he cannot be said to be smart, he is self-aware, and Hua Lan's life cannot be said to be that good after he got married.

After all, for a scholarly family, nothing is more important than the imperial examination.

The honeymoon period with my cheap mother didn't even last half a year.

The Queen Mother, a woman in the palace, has always been the one to make the final decision on all major military and state affairs of the country. It is really not appropriate to affix seals and seals.

If the emperor is unhappy, the worst possible outcome is to find an opportunity to drive Sheng Changbai out of the capital.

Ru Lan had no idea of ​​marrying high, and wanted to marry into a well-off official family whose family background was not as good as that of the Sheng family.

"Censor Sheng, what do you think about the Queen Mother listening to politics behind the curtain?"

Sheng Hong finally revealed to Wen Yanjing and Li Yu that he wanted to marry his wife.

Zhao Zongquan clearly wanted Sheng Changbai to target the Queen Mother, move her down for him, and charge into the battle.

Another one, we still have to talk about interests, Sheng Changbai is a newcomer to politics.

It perfectly matched Ru Lan's goal, and the contact between Ru Lan and Li Yu was smooth.

"In the official family, although the new monarch is older, it is not in line with the etiquette for the Queen Mother to attend court to listen to the government. But last year, the official family also personally presented the jade seal, asking the Queen Mother to come to the court and handle special matters, without hindering etiquette..."

The Li family can definitely be called a wealthy official family.

I met many people one after another and tried to win over many officials, but the results were not good.

While drinking tea, I heard the voice of a servant shouting with joy outside.

Zhao Zongquan had managed at most dozens of people in his family, how could he possibly manage the world well just by starting from scratch.

As long as you can think of a better solution to the problem, it is entirely possible for you to perform exceptionally well.

It will definitely make a lot of money. After these people pass the palace examination and enter the officialdom, the political power of the Sheng family will increase a lot.

Now that Zhao Zongquan has found Sheng Changbai, Sheng Changbai will always agree with Zhao Zongquan.

Sheng Changbai has no interest in things like fighting for power and profit.

After all, except for a group of cronies brought by Zhao Zongquan in Yuzhou, no one in the court would fully support Zhao Zongquan.

Although the conditions of the Li family are still far from Ru Lan's expectations.

During this period of time, Zhao Zongquan kept making small moves, and he didn't just find Sheng Changbai alone.

"All hit!"

After working in the position of censor for such a long time, I have eliminated some moths.

When the Spring Festival came, the Sheng family invited Juzi, who lived in the backyard, to celebrate the festival with their family.

With Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbai's reputation, Ru Lan will most likely not be bullied in her husband's family and can live a more comfortable life.

First of all, it is about etiquette. The new monarch is not underage, so there is no reason for the Queen Mother to hang the curtain.

"I also hit it!"

In fact, it is not as good as being a local official and being able to do whatever you want and do whatever you want.

Compared with Molan's troublesome situation, Rulan's side is much better.

Compared with the alliance between the emperor and the prime minister, it will not be too far behind.

Judging from the passion between He Hongwen and Minglan, they can be regarded as the passionate love period of this era.

It was inevitable to reprimand Sheng Changfeng again.

Sheng Changbai sent extra people to guard the door of the house and prevent Mo Lan from going out alone, so that nothing big could happen at home.

Both of them gave a positive response. After reporting to the elders in the family, and after the old emperor's mourning period passed, they asked a matchmaker to come to the door.

Most of the civil and military officials in the imperial court had the same attitude as Sheng Changbai, and none of them fully recognized Zhao Zong.

Being able to think like this means that Ru Lan usually looks silly and dull, but in fact she is quite transparent.

At least for He Hongwen, he is in the stage of passionate love.

But it cannot be said that it is unreasonable to think so.

But in politics, we still have to pay attention to interests.

The passing rate is 80%, which is much more auspicious than the number one scholar building or high school in the city.

I want to get back the jade seal that was given to the Queen Mother, and I also want to send the Queen Mother who invited me out to listen to politics behind the curtain, back to the harem.

After all, this is an exam based on classic meaning, strategy, theory, and the stability is not that high.

But there must be many people who would like to come to Sheng's backyard to stay and study for the exam.

Some people are happy, and naturally some people are unhappy. Lin Zheshuang, three people in a room, are all unhappy, and they all bring their own unhappiness.

I don’t know what the two people talked about or what kind of exchange of interests they had.

The original officials in the imperial court were difficult to win over, but these new scholars were different.

As for not giving the emperor face, it was not a big deal in the Zhou Dynasty.

It is not necessarily a good thing for one person to have all the power, especially if one person is not capable enough.

Because of his status as emperor, it was not difficult for Zhao Zongquan to ask officials to do things for the country.

Although Zhao Zongquan's practice of using people to go forward and not using people to go behind is shameless.

"I hit it, I hit it!"

Or Zhao Zongquan promised something to the prime minister.

Without enough status and influence, Sheng Changbai didn't like to waste time in the capital.

When you first enter the court, it is the time when you are most likely to be won over. They all hope to recruit some new talents from among the new scholars.
