After my mind was read, I became the emperor's favorite

"Princess, it seems that Miss Chu prefers the Ministry of Personnel."

Wang Tianqi stroked his beard calmly, obviously very satisfied with Chu Ningyun's unwavering decision.

He had both of these talented people in his lap, which made him very proud.

Didn’t you see that old fellow Du Wenche was so jealous that his eyes were blazing with fire? This kind of situation really needs to be exposed.

However, the grudge between the Minister of Personnel Wang Tianqi and the Minister of Revenue Du Wenche is really hard to describe in a few words.

They were from the same school, but when they were studying under their teacher, they were like water and fire, and neither of them would submit to the other.

In fact, Du Wenche was unilaterally targeting Wang Tianqi.

Whether in terms of knowledge, literary talent, appearance, or social connections, Wang Tianqi always surpassed him.

Even his results in the imperial examination were slightly better. He ranked sixth in the first class, while Wang Tianqi was the third place.

He was not convinced, but he had no choice but to turn his resentment into motivation to climb up.

However, what made him turn evil was that the junior sister whom he had admired for a long time actually liked Wang Tianqi.

It was a bolt from the blue, beyond human endurance.

Even though he finally got the girl, he developed a habit of confronting Wang Tianqi.

He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't make a few sarcastic remarks every day, and if he found someone's fault, he would trample on them to death.

Being constantly on the radar screen like this, even Wang Tianqi, who had a good temper, couldn't stand it anymore, and the two became famous enemies in the officialdom.

In fact, from Wang Tianqi's perspective, it was simply an inexplicable and unexpected disaster.

He was born into a wealthy and happy hermit family. His parents loved him and he had a happy family since childhood.

He also has a childhood sweetheart who loves him, and his own talent is unquestionable.

He has reached a high position smoothly, so he is humble, open-minded and does not care about trivial matters.

(Chu Ningyun: "Why did I choose the Ministry of Personnel among the three provinces and six ministries? It's because I admire Shangshu Wang's character.")

I never thought that my classmate would find fault everywhere and make a fuss even if it was unreasonable.

This is unacceptable, he also learned to fight back.

After several rounds of this, the current situation has been created.

It’s time and destiny!

"Since Miss Chu has made up her mind, I won't force her. So what about Miss Xu?"

Princess Jiarong didn't care about being rejected, but turned to look at another girl.

He has a handsome appearance, strong martial arts skills, is resolute and decisive, just like pine and cypress. Isn't this what she had dreamed of?

Unfortunately, her mother was afraid that her husband's family would dislike her, so she cut off her way to study in Yushen Mountain.

So she was excited about this little girl who could obviously get away with it, and asked another question.

But before Xu Jin could answer, an awe-inspiring old general arrived with a large group of troops.

"Xu Jin, you little bastard, why are you messing around here? Come back with me."

Without waiting for Xu Jin to explain, he bowed and apologized to the six ministers above him.

“I’m sorry, my Lords.

I am Sun Wufang's disciple. Please forgive Xiao Jin this time for my sake. I will discipline him strictly when I return.

And this girl is also a good friend of my granddaughter, so I will take her away with me."

Although he said words of teaching, his intention of protecting was evident in his words.

The guards beside them surrounded the two girls, as if they were protecting them to the death.

Everyone was speechless, looking at General Xu, who was known for protecting his own people, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Thinking about this person's record, Wang Tianqi couldn't help but twitch his lips.

The story of a scholar meeting a soldier is like that of General Xu.

In addition, he had made great military achievements, and his son was a general in charge of 100,000 border troops.

In official circles, what he feared most was this kind of tough guy, even more so than Du Wenche.

The sudden change of situation controlled even Chu Ningyun for a few seconds, and then she glared at Xu Jin.

Xu Jin was startled by the stare and could not help but touch his nose in embarrassment. He could only pull at Xu Huxiao's robe.

"Grandfather, you misunderstood. We have already passed the selection."

It was quite embarrassing. She was afraid that she could not protect her good friend, so she asked the neighbor's brother to call her grandfather.

My grandfather did come to the rescue, but he came at the wrong time.

Besides, her good friend had repeatedly warned her not to let her family interfere.

Otherwise, their self-willed behavior may bring disaster to the family.

She was in such a hurry that she didn't care about anything else. She just wanted to save the person first.

I'm in big trouble now. I don't know how to coax my friend to calm him down.

Is it okay for her to learn from her father and kneel on the washboard? After all, that's how she calms down when her mother is angry.

"Uh, you little thing, why didn't you tell me earlier? What should I do now?

I told you to go to your father's military camp, but you insisted on joining this damn Ministry of War..."

Xu Huxiao lowered his voice and leaned close to his granddaughter's ear to ask, but even though he tried to speak softly, the officials nearby could hear him clearly.

When Wang Tianqi was about to rescue them, his subordinate, the Minister of War, Lü Jian, suddenly interrupted the "whisper" between the grandfather and grandson.

"General Xu, our Ministry of War respects martial arts. Xu Jin came out on top today, so of course he must join our Ministry of War."

Originally, these rough people didn't have as many fussinesses as the literati. Regardless of gender, the strong were respected.

He was also very optimistic about the martial arts of this young man Xu Jin.

It was just that the argument was too heated. He was not good at speaking and could not get a word in.

Now, the fight for people has come to him.

This won’t do. He has to keep the person first.

His people could not be taken away even by his own father, let alone General Xu, whom he admired.

Chu Ningyun nodded slightly to Xu Jin, and Xu Jin immediately responded by clasping his fists like his good friend.

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess Jiarong, but I am more suitable for the Ministry of War."

"That's a shame, but the door of my clan house is always open to you two."

Princess Jiarong smiled and left them a way out.

She had come to the rescue, but it seemed like both girls had their own tricks up their sleeves.

After struggling in the officialdom for more than a month, she understood too well how difficult it was for a woman to be an official.

If Mingze had not given her all the help, it would probably take her several times longer to sort out the entire clan office.

She has been caught in the rain, and hopes to pass on the umbrella (kindness) that Mingze handed her to more women.

After saying that, Princess Jiarong walked towards the compartment.

While everyone was still wondering when she became so familiar with Qi Mingze, a head popped out of the compartment window.

"Cousin, here!"

Seeing that his cousin was about to leave, Huo Le'an couldn't wait to call her.

It turned out to be because of Master Huo, and everyone finally felt relieved.

Chu Ningyun, who knew the truth, looked at these old foxes who were being "tricked" but knew nothing about it, and lowered her eyes silently.

Qi Mingze, whose effect was immediately achieved with just a slight hint, lowered his head slightly apologetically.

I feel a little sorry for this cousin, tool man, who was completely unaware of the situation.

"Chu girl, shouldn't we leave too?"

General Xu asked, not thinking it was shameful to ask a young girl who had just come of age.

The grandfather and grandson both stared at Chu Ningyun with their bright eyes, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

"Grandfather Xu, please go back first. Xiaojin and I still need to go through the registration process."

"Okay, I'll wait for you outside the door." Hearing this, Xu Huxiao left happily.

The sour Confucian atmosphere here is too strong, and he is almost sickened.
