Chapter 490
490 Attending the meeting (1)
After entering the study and closing the door, Xu Xinian stared at his brother with a strange expression.
His expression was strange but not anxious. It was not an urgent matter … Criminal Police Xu made a judgment and sat down at the Round Table. He poured a glass of water to relieve his thirst after eating too much MSG. He smiled casually and said, ”
“Erlang, a man can’t be hesitant. If you have something to say, just say it.”
Xu Erlang walked to the desk, picked up an invitation, and dropped it in front of Xu Qi ‘an with a ” Click “.
Xu Qi ‘an opened the invitation and glanced at it. He knew why Xu Erlang had a strange expression.
The content of the invitation was to invite Xu Erlang to attend the cultural conference. There was an interesting sentence on it:He went with his sister.
The person who had invited him was the current head of court, Wang zhenwen.
you’re the Prime Minister of the spring examination. It’s reasonable to invite you to the cultural gathering. Xu Qi ‘an analyzed.
Xu niannian only had two younger sisters, so he naturally wouldn’t invite young children to an event like this. How could the Wang family not understand such rules?
As for the women who participated in the cultural gathering, although Da Feng still followed the three obedience and four virtues, due to the existence of the cultivation system, there were also outstanding women.
Therefore, even though the Status of Women was below men, it was not that low. She didn’t need to tie her feet, and she didn’t need to wear a veil when she went out. She could go out and play whenever she wanted.
For example, his aunt and lingyue would take their retinue out to shop at jewelry stores every few days.
It wasn’t strange for women to participate in the gathering.
“Foolish!”
Xu niannian sneered. the officialdom is like a battlefield. There may be many muddleheaded fools who secretly hold high positions, but the court officials are not among them. Chief advisor Wang is the best among them. His every move, every word, and every expression are worth us thinking about and analyzing. Otherwise, he would die without even knowing how.
“Big brother is Wei Yuan’s man, and Wang zhenwen and Wei Yuan are like two fierce Tigers in the Imperial court. They are like fire and water. If he invited me to his residence to attend this meeting, it must not be as simple as it seems.”
Xu Erlang paced around the room as he thought. I, Xu niannian, am the dignified Huiyuan with a bright future. Chief Assistant Wang was afraid of me and wanted to kill me before I could grow up …
“That’s not right. Even if I were to be listed on the Golden roll and get into the first place, it would be a piece of cake for chief advisor Wang to deal with me. There’s a huge gap in our status.
“Then, is he really just inviting me for an ordinary cultural gathering? If that’s the case, we’ll be underestimating our opponents and Wang zhenwen …”
The distressed Xu Erlang looked at Xu dalang and said with a frown, “”Big brother, say something.”
I feel that your thoughts are gradually changing … Xu Qi ‘an frowned and said,”why don’t you ask your classmates and see if they have received the invitation?”
“If there is, then this is just a simple cultural gathering. If they didn’t and only invited you, a student from Yun Lu Academy, there must be something fishy going on. ”
“I’ve thought of that, but unfortunately, I don’t have time.” Xu Erlang was a little anxious and pointed at the invitation. “Big brother, look at the time. The Civil meeting is tomorrow morning, I don’t have time to verify it … I understand.”
“Understand what?” Xu dalang asked.
“Chief advisor Wang didn’t give me a chance to react. If I don’t go, he’ll spread my arrogant and condescending behavior and taint my reputation. If I go, there will definitely be some scheme waiting for me at the cultural gathering.” Xu Erlang gasped, ”
“Old ginger is spicier.”
Xu Qi ‘an was on his guard when he heard Wang zhenwen’s words. It wasn’t easy for the Xu family to produce a talented scholar, but Wang zhenwen was so unfilial.
Then, he noticed that something was wrong. He frowned and said, “”You just said that chief advisor Wang doesn’t need any tricks to deal with you. Even if you’re a Jinshi, you’ve only just left the novice village, while he’s almost at the max level.”
what’s a newbie village? ” Xu niannian asked, confused. what’s a Max-level account? ”
if you don’t go, your arrogant reputation will spread. If you go, there might be some conspiracy … Erlang, you can decide for yourself.” Xu Qi ‘an patted his shoulder and comforted him.
“When did big brother become as stupid as Ling Ying?”
“I’ve said so much and you still don’t understand what I mean?” Xu Erlang said unhappily. I want big brother to go with me. ”
“No, you can’t go with me. You’re my brother, but we’re not on the same side in the political field. Erlang, You Must Remember This.” Xu Qi ‘an’s face became serious and he said in a deep voice, ”
“You have your own path and direction. Don’t have anything to do with me.”
Xu Erlang was a smart man. After a moment of silence, he replied, ” yes.
His big brother was actually warning him not to have anything to do with Wei Yuan. One day, even if Wei Yuan were to fall, it would be inevitable that his brother would be implicated.
However, Wei Yuan’s fall had nothing to do with Xu nianxin. He was only Xu Qi ‘an’s brother, not Wei Yuan’s subordinate.
Xu niannian agreed with this idea.
In history, the descendants of the powerful families were not of one mind and belonged to different forces. The advantage of this was that even if one wing was lost, the family would only suffer a serious injury and would not be destroyed.
……………
The next day, Xu Qi ‘an rode his beloved little mare and rushed to the night watchman’s Yamen under the blue sky.
After the roll call, a few of song tingfeng’s close colleagues came to look for him. Everyone sat together, drinking tea, eating peanuts, and boasting for a while. They began to encourage Xu Qi ‘an to treat the Imperial Academy.
“Get lost, get lost …”
