Women dressed as men: powerful officials

After hearing Song Xiujing's words, Xu Yuan couldn't help but feel dazed.

If Song Xiujing knew that she would become the third imperial consort, or even the crown princess, would she still say this?

When she is at the pinnacle of power, would she allow someone to hold something against her?

I don’t know if I want to make a wish.

It is also possible that Song Xiujing said these words today specifically to win her over.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan smiled and said, "Then I wish Miss Song to get what she wants."

This sentence seems to be true but not true. Song Xiujing always feels that it has some different meaning.

She looked at Xu Yuan, with a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes, but after a moment, that doubt disappeared completely and turned into deeper worry.

"If I can live till then, I will definitely help you."

"Miss Song is smart, she will definitely survive. Remember what I told you."

After saying this, Xu Yuan stopped talking and picked up the bamboo slips to review his lessons.

After the county examination, there is the state examination. Unlike the county examination, the state examination is held every three years.

This year is the twenty-second year of Jiahe, and she still has two years before she can take the state exam.

In her previous life, she took part in the state examination in the twenty-seventh year of Jiahe.

The top scorer in the national examination of Jiahe No. 24 is Shen Yichuan.

If she wants to meet the emperor in the national examination, she must first defeat Shen Yichuan.

Even though he had taken the test once and had a lot of experience, Xuyuan still felt pressured to beat Shen Yichuan.

Probably whatever comes to mind.

When Xu Yuan raised his head, Shen Yichuan just came in from outside the door.

She was still dressed in white, with a jade pendant hanging around her waist and a feather fan in her hand, which she was gently shaking.

Xu Yuan held the bamboo slips in his hand, lost in thought.

Even with the city defense map, Shen Yichuan didn't go back. It seemed that Third Master Bei Yao valued Song Xiujing more than she thought.

To the extent that even the matter of the city defense map could be put on hold.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan calmed down a little.

Over there, Shen Yichuan saw Xu Yuan and raised the corners of his lips slightly. He did not confront her as before, but sat down and said, "We have talked about a lot of things over the past two days. I wonder if there is anything else you want to know?"

After hearing what Shen Yichuan said, someone immediately asked, "Mr. Shen, are there really brothels in the capital?"

"Mr. Shen, is the capital city very prosperous? Is there a desert?"

"How much does it cost to buy a house in Beijing?"

Hearing some students' questions, the teacher beside him couldn't help but scold: "What kind of questions are you asking?! It's against the rules."

Shen Yichuan smiled, "No problem."

"They are used to being disrespectful to each other on weekdays. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Shen."

The teacher saw that Shen Yichuan was not angry, and his expression was slightly worried, but he still had nothing good to say.

The school became quiet.

Shen Yichuan then asked: "Miss Song, do you have anything you want to ask?"

After Shen Yichuan's words, almost all eyes in the school were on Song Xiujing.

Song Xiujing looked up, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Ajing does want to know, but..."

There were so many people in the school, she didn't know whether she should ask or not.

Hearing Song Xiujing's concerns, Shen Yichuan smiled broadly and said, "Miss Song, if you want to know something, just ask directly. Whether you say it or not, whether you answer or not, is what I should worry about, not a reason for you to hesitate."

After hearing what Shen Yichuan said, Song Xiujing seemed to have gained a backbone and said, "In that case, I will ask directly, Mr. Shen, do you know anything about the Song family in Taiwei Mansion?"

Song family, Song Xiujing.

Many people have heard it, and there must be a significant connection between them.

But because the Master was present, no one dared to say anything.

When Xu Yuan heard what Song Xiujing said, he was secretly shocked.

She is worthy of being the third prince’s consort.

Song Xiujing has never thought of just being an unknown concubine's daughter.

Even in this remote desert, she still used all the resources around her to learn everything about the capital.

After hearing what Song Xiujing said, Shen Yichuan thought for a moment and said, "The current Taiwei's surname is Song, and his full name is Song Tianming. He is not a military commander, but he can be considered one of the celebrities in the capital because he can become Taiwei."

Xu Yuan listened and silently put down the bamboo slips.

If she remembered correctly, after the Xu family was ransacked, many people benefited, and Song Tianming was one of them.

After all, there are three people in the Song family, one is the prime minister, the second is the chief censor, and the third is the grand marshal.

Once the Xu family falls, naturally other people will take these positions.

Song Tianming and Wei Chenyi are both like this.

In his previous life, when Xu Yuan went to the capital, he collected a lot of evidence, but he still could not overturn the case for the Xu family.

That's why she made friends with the Imperial Censor Wei Chenyi.

In Tianqi, the prime minister was in charge of government affairs, the general was in charge of military affairs, and the chief censor was responsible for supervising all officials.

If there were disputes among the common people, they would be handled by the local county magistrate.

But once you become an official, you will be transferred to the Dali Temple.

Her original purpose of taking the national examination was to meet the emperor and make friends with Wei Chenyi, so that she could enter the Dali Temple through Wei Chenyi's relationship and secretly investigate the unjust case of the Xu family.

But, she had misjudged the person after all.

Wei Chenyi is untrustworthy, and Song Tianming...

Xu Yuan moved his eyes slightly and looked at Song Xiujing.

Perhaps, from now on, she should understand the situation in the capital.

"It has been twenty years since Song Taiwei was conferred the title of Taiwei. However, when we talk about Taiwei, we have to mention the Xu family that we mentioned earlier."

"The Xu family is a well-known family in the capital. It was not Shen's lies that the father and son of the Xu family were both among the three highest officials. The second son of the Xu family, Xu He, was the previous Grand Commandant."

"Xu He is the youngest Grand Commandant in Tianqi's history. Do you know what Hanzhou County is like now?"

When Shen Yichuan asked, someone immediately said, "Of course I know, but Hanzhou County is remote, how could it be related to the capital?"

"Yes, Hanzhou borders our Shuozhou, both of which are on the northern line of Tianqi. Hanzhou is even farther away!"

The students in Sishui County were not aware of what was happening in the capital, but everyone in Hanzhou County and Sishui County knew about it.

Like Sishui County, Hanzhou County is also Tianqi’s northern defense line. In fact, Hanzhou County is more important than Sishui County.

"Hanzhou County was recovered by Xu He." Shen Yichuan said calmly, and then said: "After recovering Hanzhou County, Xu He returned to the capital and was appointed as the Grand Commandant. However, the good times did not last long. Three years later..."

The entire Xu family was exiled.

The place of exile was Hanzhou County, where Xu He had fought and shed his blood.

The school fell silent.

Xu Yuan's heart suddenly sank, and she became even sadder and more upset.

Xu He is a gifted and talented young man.

But, he died in the place he was guarding.

Xu Yuan didn't even dare to imagine how Xu Wenxian had cheered up in the past.

If those things hadn't happened, her father would have been a great writer now, right?

Anyway, it won’t be as miserable as it is now.
