Chapter 0129: Prince of Xinjun

Yuan Shiwen was frightened and quickly pondered in his heart, and finally made up his mind in half an hour.

Half an hour later, almost all the people were meeting before finally it was Yuan Shiwen's turn.

Fortunately, it's not at the bottom... "Yuan Shiwen glanced at the dozen or so people sitting alone, breathed a sigh of relief, quickly straightened his clothes, and entered the small hall.

Just as he entered, the lights were bright and dazzling. The light shook Yuan Shiwen for a moment, and he calmed down before he could see clearly inside. There were carved curtains on both sides, and a young girl holding a fan interlocking. On the main seat, there was a person in a blue and purple robe holding a case file.

China implements a centralized system of prefectures and counties. Except for a few early dynasties where the imperial family held some real power, they were all raised as pigs by the court, possessing both civil and military skills, as well as being courteous and virtuous. The court suspected that they had some ulterior motives.

This world is different, there are vast wilderness areas outside the imperial court, and there is a saying of alternating fortunes, so in general, each prince is enfeoffed to distant lands.

So when each prince was young, he could stay in the imperial capital, recruit manpower, cultivate talents, until one of his brothers ascended to the throne, and then move the other brothers out of the domain.

After the establishment of the Da Cai Dynasty, these systems were inherited and a system of enfeoffment was established based on reality. The prince had four levels in turn - the General of Honor, which was established from birth.

Around the age of fifteen, he was promoted to the position of Duke.

At around the age of twenty, one is granted the title of Duke of a county. As for the title of King, it is usually conferred upon brothers after the emperor takes office, and then moved out to establish a fiefdom.

The sixth prince in front of us is officially titled "Prince of Xinjun", so he is wearing a blue and purple robe.

Yuan Shiwen only glanced at him and dared not look any further. He knelt down solemnly and said, "I have fulfilled my mission and failed to recruit Ye Qing. Please punish me, Your Highness

He is a high-ranking official, not a servant, so he is called a "minor minister", which is a sign of national dignity.

Hmm. "The sixth prince had a deep and gentle magnetic voice, unable to hear his emotions, so he looked over and said," Feixun's call is unknown. Since Yuan Qing has returned, please explain it carefully

Yuan Shiwen raised his head and pondered for a moment before briefly describing the process of recruitment. In this world where Taoism and law are manifested, completely exaggerating and shirking responsibility is like seeking death, and even nine truths and one falsehood are not acceptable.

He always spoke his mind truthfully, but during a few meetings, Ye Qingyan's tone changed slightly. With just a few words, this spring and autumn writing style suddenly highlighted the appearance of a young man with no spare eyes.

Oh, is that so? "The Sixth Prince listened, without hesitation, and smiled.

Feeling that the Sixth Prince's gaze was as dazzling as a torch, Yuan Shiwen's forehead was slightly sweaty, but his voice was calm: "I am incompetent and could not persuade you. I had no choice but to move out the Grand Secretary and His Highness, but this Ye Qing only said -

Yuan Shiwen raised his head slightly and imitated Ye Qing's tone: "A good intention still makes Qing grateful in his heart, but my imperial examination was for fame and longevity, and I only came to the capital to serve the court. I can only accept this kindness with my heart

Upon hearing this, the Sixth Prince suppressed his smile and furrowed his brow. For a moment, the small hall fell silent, and it was only then that Yuan Shiwen was able to take a closer look at the Sixth Prince.

The Sixth Prince is not as heroic as many people imagine, he is just delicate, not tall, with a pair of thick eyebrows and a hint of indescribable weariness.

However, in the blink of an eye, the Sixth Prince relaxed his brow and said, "I know you've been touched and a little aggrieved, but Yizhou Jieyuan is a bit normal in spirit. Your recruitment is a bit casual

This is not a big deal, but in Yuan Shiwen's mind, there was a "bang". He asked himself or changed the tone of the key words, but he did not delete or modify a word, and he was indeed dedicated to doing things.

In the past six months, every day has been busy with work, often only sleeping for three hours a day. I didn't want to do this, but when it came to the Sixth Prince's mouth, it was "a bit casual"!

I suddenly felt a surge of anger in my chest, and I trembled as I knelt down and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, I have acted recklessly in my official duties. Please punish me, Your Highness

The Sixth Prince chuckled and spoke in a gentle voice, "I couldn't have predicted that Ye Qing would pass away at the age of sixteen, let alone you. This was not Yuan Qing's mistake, it was a careless act done alone. Get up now

Previously, upon hearing these words, Yuan Shiwen would be filled with gratitude and a desire to serve his life. The Sixth Prince was both benevolent and refined, kind and dignified towards others, which is evident from this.

But at this moment, for some reason, upon hearing these words, Yuan Shiwen's mind was in chaos, with countless shadows flashing in the red light, finally fixed on Ye Qing's face, and a wave of anger about to rush out.

At this moment, the Sixth Prince did not pay attention to Yuan Shiwen's emotions. To be honest, this polite and virtuous corporal was just an instinct, not truly meticulous in everything. He stood up and slowly walked around, stretched his body, and said, "I was too hasty. I will arrange for someone to recruit Ye Qing... Lin Qing

The courtiers are here! "A stern voice came from behind the curtain, and as they passed by Yuan Shiwen, a hint of a smile appeared.

Yuan Shiwen saw that it was his old acquaintance Lin Qin, also a well-known scholar and courtier, who had never looked at each other. However, this person was from the Sixth Prince's family and was one rank higher than himself.

Well, you can prepare more generous gifts and promise a good position. As the young man is full of vitality and admires beautiful women, you can choose the two best maidservants in the mansion... "The gentle voice of the Sixth Prince paused for a moment, then became smooth again:" Let's just give Xiangling and Yunxiu to this person on behalf of the orphan

Your Highness! "Lin Qin heard the name, and his pride was swept away. He was shocked and jealous, and couldn't help but dissuade him:" These two are talented people with grades bestowed by the emperor. According to etiquette, they are the inner chambers of Your Highness. How can they have any reason with others

What's the point of being a woman? It's worth it for this talented person... and I haven't enjoyed it before. What's the taboo with just a name? I will politely remove these two talented women from their positions and reward them with this Jieyuan, don't you think

Lin Qin saw the Sixth Prince's slight smile and deep gaze, which made his heart cold. He was originally an outstanding person, but Xiangling and Yunxiu really attracted people's hearts, so he advised him for a moment. At this moment, he suddenly realized.

If one can pass the provincial examination, there is a one in ten chance of entering the top 23.

If it were the Earth world, not only for the imperial examination, but also for the top scholar, one would not allow the county king to be so courteous and virtuous. However, this world is different. Jinshi is a tribute to the Dao court, not to the imperial court, and in the future, they will have heavenly status, which is difficult to control.

Although only one tenth of the successful candidates can achieve longevity, one tenth of this tenth is enough for the county king to invest.

And when this rumor spread, it also made the world know that the Sixth Prince was sincere in seeking talent. Thinking of this, these two young girls were indeed nothing, and they immediately admired him sincerely. They bowed and said, "Your Highness is wise

Don't praise me, once this matter is done well, there will be a heavy reward. If you mess up your salary for the past two years, don't expect it anymore... "The Sixth Prince joked to Lin Qin, then looked at Yuan Shiwen and said," It's late at night, Yuan Qing can step down. Remember to greet Grand Secretary Tong on behalf of me

Yuan Shiwen lowered his head deeply, knowing that the opportunity to climb up to the sixth prince had been missed again. His mind was in chaos, and he vaguely said some scene related words. His face turned pale and he left.

As soon as she left the hall, due to the deep night, she was sent into a courtyard to rest. A young girl in white came in, lit a lamp, brought tea, and blushed. As expected, she whispered, "Does the distinguished guest need any other service

Noble guest? "Yuan Shiwen glanced at the ordinary and beautiful appearance, and suddenly remembered the two stunning beauties he had seen in front of the palace. A wave of disgust surged up and he sneered," Let me ask you, how many men have you served with your body? You're still talking about serving in front of me

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of tea. It was only after being stimulated by the tea that he became somewhat clear headed. What's wrong with him? How could he say such words.

Seeing the girl's pale face and sudden insult, her lips trembled slightly as she said, "Why did you say that

Speaking, the girl covered her face with her sleeve and retreated in embarrassment and panic, leaving behind a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Yuan Shiwen suddenly knew that it was probably because this girl hated him so much that it would be difficult to resolve.

After taking a deep breath, only one person remained in the room. The candle was silent, and the bean flame swayed, casting Yuan Shiwen's shadow on the wall, twisted and uncertain.

After sitting in this room for a while, Yuan Shiwen looked up and laughed under the light, his face contorted as he said, "Duke Jie Yuan, you have such a great aura. No wonder I came back with this treatment

At the age of sixteen, he passed the imperial examination and became a rare talent. As long as he did not make any mistakes, he became a member of the imperial family and was listed in the heavenly realm, or held the position of Grand Secretary in the court several decades later

How can I still be used as the magistrate of the university scholar's mansion at this time? It must be the Sixth Prince's mansion coming forward to show respect

Yuan Shiwen had thought through this section thoroughly. If it had been before, he would have been grateful for not being punished and passed peacefully. However, tonight there was always an uncontrollable sense of distress.

Thinking of me as a great man, I have nowhere to showcase my talents, look at people's looks everywhere, have no success in my career, and even find it difficult to settle down on my family business

And this Ye Qing, everyone values maintenance, and the prince has a green eye. Just now, he was such a stunning beauty that he would give away as soon as he wanted, and two at a time. He is still a talented person with a certain rank awarded by the emperor

This comparison makes me feel that half a life of mediocrity is a joke, not only Ye Qing, Lan Chongwen, but also others seem to be mocking.

The tide of regret, remorse, inferiority, and hatred surged through my heart, and in the end, even a trace of hatred towards the Grand Academician and the Sixth Prince appeared.

This is a great rebellion that I wouldn't normally dare to think about. Now that I have it, even at this moment, Yuan Shiwen is still frightened and quickly throws it away, pressing this dangerous thought.

What's wrong with me today? Do you dare to think about it? Or should I drown my sorrows in alcohol and get some sleep? "Yuan Shiwen felt a surge of thoughts and couldn't control himself, but he also had his own way.

Firstly, it's about women. They ejaculate a few more times on their bodies, causing their bodies to become weak and unable to think of anything. They just lay down and went to sleep, and today they feel refreshed again.

But just now the girl was blown away by herself, how could she have the face to be shameless?

Next is alcohol. As long as you drink a few more glasses, you can't think of anything and just lie down and go to sleep.

At the moment, without hesitation, he arrived at the table and saw a banquet set up. He poured his own wine, glass after glass, and ate his food.

Yuan Shiwen's alcohol tolerance is not very high, and he drinks in a hurry to drown himself in alcohol. Before long, he became very drunk and lay down on the bed, snoring heavily.

The moonlight was dim, casting some shadows that slowly twisted and stretched.
