Chapter 67

"Master of the Household Department?" Bai Huan was a little surprised when he heard this.

According to the usual practice, Xinke Scholars usually go to the Hanlin Academy to study. Even if this Xinke champion is already the first of all Xinke Scholars, he will not be awarded the position of Minister of the Household Department by the emperor from the very beginning.

After all, among the six departments of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, the household department has real power, and the servant of the household department is a fourth-rank official position.If Bai Huan remembered correctly, the well-known young talent in the capital in front of him is only a fifth-rank Zhongsan doctor, not to mention that Zhongsan doctor is only a casual official, and he cannot be compared with the servant of the household department at all.

It is really surprising that this new top scholar has such a high starting point in his career.

But it's not easy to express these inner thoughts in front of Cheng Kerui, Bai Huan just paused, and then said in a regular manner: "I think this new champion must be a talent."

Regardless of whether this number one scholar is really talented or has a prominent status, in short, there must be something extraordinary, otherwise His Majesty the Emperor would not have given him such a great honor.

"So Mr. Bai hasn't heard of it?" Now it was Cheng Kerui's turn to be surprised, "Oh, it seems that Mr. Bai is very filial and can't tell the energy to care about these news. This new champion is a person who has won three yuan in succession. After the palace examination, There are a lot of discussions all over the world, after all, it is my first job in court, and it is considered a sensation."

Cheng Kerui smiled meaningfully: "After hearing this, Cheng was also very interested in this new champion, and hoped to get married, but found out that the name of this champion was exactly the same as the third lady of your mansion. They are all Bai Qingtong."

Bai Huan paused.

...Bai Qingtong?

To be honest, if it weren't for Meng's swearing before he died, he would have almost forgotten Bai Qingtong.After all, Bai Huan had no contact with Bai Qingtong since he was a child, and Bai Huan had already left the government to study, and Bai Qingtong was also a boudoir with no sense of existence. When Bai Huan heard the news of Bai Qingtong's death, he only thought for a while before realizing that it was his own. Concubine.

To this day, when he heard the name Bai Qingtong again, Bai Huan couldn't even come up with a clearer outline in his mind.

Cheng Kerui wouldn't bring this up casually, but Bai Huan couldn't figure out how his concubine could have any connection with this new champion.

Seeing the doubts on Bai Huan's expression, Cheng Kerui smiled: "Cheng has always been obsessed with the third lady of your mansion. After knowing such a coincidence, I couldn't help but investigate more deeply, and finally found out that this Bai Qingtong is the other lady." Bai Qingtong, the world-renowned No. [-] scholar in the new discipline, is the third lady of your mansion who disguised herself as a man."

"What?!" Tao Zhi, who was silently guarding by the side, couldn't help but screamed.

Bai Huan also looked dull.

His cowardly and obedient concubine sister, who had never been out of the door since she was a child, could become the new No. [-] scholar in the three rounds? !

"Cheng also thinks that this matter is too shocking." Cheng Kerui said, "But even Her Royal Highness has personally identified it, so it can't be fake. After the third lady fell off the cliff that day, she was probably rescued by the people of Bishui Temple, and then with her." Her Highness the Princess got in touch. It has never been revealed that the Third Miss was able to disguise herself as a man and mix among the imperial examination students, so it should be the Princess’s credit."

In the final analysis, what Qi Lin did was beyond the comprehension of people in this world and this era. Although Cheng Kerui already knew a lot of the truth, it would be impossible to imagine it with a few more brains. Qi Lin just asked Cheng Kerui can only reason and guess based on what he has seen and heard about the identity of the current emperor.

"Mr. Bai grew up in the capital, so he should have heard about Her Royal Highness's temperament and behavior." Cheng Kerui smiled helplessly, "No matter what absurd things this Highness Princess does...But Miss San, with her support, , A woman disguised as a man to enter the imperial examination is an act of deceiving the emperor! If His Majesty finds out about it one day, it will not be a small crime, and I am afraid it will cause the White House to fail!"

Cheng Kerui cupped his hands at Bai Huan: "Mr. Bai, Cheng came here this time because he wanted to ask Mr. Bai to come forward and recognize Miss San before the incident happened. Mr. Cheng will also do his best to help Mr. Bai achieve success as soon as possible. Save the White House from disaster."

The amount of information contained in Cheng Kerui's words was really too much, Bai Huan really digested it for a while, and finally managed to force a smile, and bowed his hands to Cheng Kerui: "Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for your help. Mr. Cheng, if there is an order, Bai will definitely not hesitate to say anything."

Bai Huan didn't ask Cheng Kerui why he did this, because Cheng Kerui had clearly revealed his dissatisfaction with Princess Xuanji and his affection for Bai Qingtong in his previous words.

So after recognizing Bai Qingtong, Bai Huan will give it to Cheng Kerui, this is a tacit secret between the two.

Moreover, the consequences predicted by Cheng Kerui are by no means alarmist. The Holy Majesty is not something to be fooled by now. Even if he wants to protect himself, Bai Huan will definitely agree. What's more, if this matter is done, the benefits he can get from Cheng Kerui will be more than a little bit. point.

Cheng Kerui raised the corners of his lips slightly: "That's hard work, Mr. Bai."

well.

With the help of Bai Huan, the direct brother, it would not be difficult for Bai Qingtong to regain her status as the third young miss of the Bai Mansion.

Women should stay in the back house peacefully, waiting for their husband and children.No matter how great Bai Qingtong's abilities are, he still cannot escape his destiny as a woman, not to mention how much of Bai Qingtong's abilities are due to Princess Xuanji.
