After the Qionglin Banquet ended, Jiang Li took the initiative to find Xiao Huang and took him to see the Fourth Prince.

"The Fourth Prince values ​​talents very much, you..." Jiang Li didn't know that Xiao Huang had already eavesdropped on his conversation with the Fourth Prince, and hesitated for a moment. After all, he did not tell the story of the Fourth Prince's bad impression of him, nor did he show his merits how difficult it was to win him this interview opportunity.

Xiao Rong knew that although he had already given up joining the Fourth Prince's command, he could not bear to refuse Jiang Li to disappoint him, so he followed him in anticipation.

When the fourth prince saw that Xiao Huang was in a private room in a teahouse outside the palace, he was a little careless. If it weren't for Jiang Li's strong recommendation, he wouldn't have planned to meet Xiao Huang at all.

However, when Jiang Li brought Xiao Huang in, the fourth prince still gave Jiang Li a favorable face. He did not show his dissatisfaction with Xiao Huang. Instead, he had an approachable attitude on the surface.

After a few simple conversations with the Fourth Prince, Xiao Huang was sure that the last winner in the original work had a deep prejudice against him, because the Fourth Prince's attitude was too "appropriate". From beginning to end, he talked to him some irrelevant home-to-day conversations.

Xiao Ying is now just a top scorer, and his official position is also a sesame official who will be included in the top scorers of all previous sessions. His identity is far less than that of the fourth prince. But how proud Xiao Ying is, what's wrong with the prince? What's wrong with the emperor in the future? He has never been a prince and emperor!

Seeing the fourth prince's perfunctory attitude, Xiao Ying looked calm as if he had no idea what Jiang Li wanted to bring him to see the fourth prince, so he quickly said goodbye and left.

The fourth prince originally wanted to give Jiang Li a face and chat with Xiao Huang for a while. After all, the top scholar did have some things in his stomach, and it was still very comfortable to chat. But before the prince gave the order to expel the guest, Xiao Huang left on his own initiative, and his expression was so plain that the fourth prince had the ability to be fooled by himself.

After Xiao Ying left the teahouse box, Jiang Li, who was sent outside by the fourth prince, hurriedly walked towards him and asked, "How is it?"

Xiao Rong smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Brother Jiang for your help. I had a great time talking to Your Highness at the tea ceremony. Seeing that Your Highness was intoxicated by tea tasting and inconvenient to disturb him, I said goodbye first."

This was very tactful, but Jiang Li understood it. The fourth prince did not ask Xiao Huang about his knowledge and political views, but instead talked to him about the tea ceremony. He later took the initiative to leave early. It was obvious that the fourth prince did not intend to recruit him, and he was unhappy to give him a face. The two completely broke down the talk.

Although Jiang Li was prepared, he was still very disappointed: "This... I'm sorry Brother Shao."

Xiao Rong shook his head: "This has nothing to do with Brother Jiang." He patted Jiang Li on the shoulder and smiled, "Next time we have the chance to gather alone, I will leave first."

Jiang Li stood there in a daze and looked at Xiao Rong's tall back as he left, turned around and walked into the private room, looking at the fourth prince who was slowly pouring tea, he became silent and said nothing.

The fourth prince raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Li in surprise. He thought that his companion would be in a hurry to ask Shao Qingyun about it after he came in, but it would be better if he didn't ask. He was embarrassed to tell Jiang Li so directly that he refuted his face.

After returning to the Li Mansion, Xiao Ying stayed alone in the room. He was not angry because of the attitude of the Fourth Prince today. After all, he was not the real Shao Qingyun, and he was a time traveler with a psychological age dozens of times the age of the Fourth Prince, so he would not care about this little thing at all.

The fourth prince's despise him only made him start thinking about which prince to choose to assist him. Xiao Ying chose the fourth prince before to save trouble, but it does not mean that he cannot recommend other princes to the throne.

Xiao Ying pulled all the princes under the emperor's knees and finally chose the prince.

The real reason why the prince was deposed in the original work was not described, but judging from clues and the news collected now, it should be that the prince was gentle and weak and not tough enough. The gentle and weak temperament made the prince unable to fight against his younger brothers who were like wolves and tigers. Moreover, the current emperor is a king with iron-blooded skills. Of course, he does not want his heir to be a weak and weak boy who is controlled by court officials. He will naturally be dissatisfied with the prince, and it is inevitable that the prince will be deposed.

However, in Xiao Ying's opinion, the prince's weak temperament is a great advantage.

Because his male supporting role is a great minister, he wants to be a powerful minister. If a strong minister is suppressed by a tough king, it would be more tragic. But if the king is weak in temperament and gentle in means, the powerful minister can truly be above ten thousand people!

At present, the emperor is in full swing in the spring and autumn and has been living for many years, but the position of the prince is not very stable. It can be seen from the fact that Emperor Qionglin Banquet not only allowed the prince to attend but also other princes to attend. Isn’t this an opportunity for other princes to win over these bright new Jinshi? You should know that in the past, only the prince followed the emperor to attend such occasions.

But what makes Xiao Ying a little troubled at the moment is whether the emperor is willing to let the prince succeed to the throne? What if the emperor's heir was determined to be the fourth prince at the beginning...

Xiao Rong's appointment was soon released. He was the top scholar, far higher than other Jinshis. He was directly appointed as a composer of the Hanlin Academy. From the sixth rank official position, the second-rank Tanhua behind him was an editor of the seventh rank. When the Jinshi who wanted to stay in the capital, he could only take the exam for Shujishi. The gap was evident.

Each new Jinshi is awarded an official position. Before starting work, the court will approve enough holidays based on the distance between his hometown and the capital to allow the new officials to return to their hometown to visit their relatives.

Being rich and honorable is like walking in the night without returning home.

Xiao Rong bought a property in the capital, so he left to Shaojia Village, Qingyang County, intending to bring Shao's father, Shao's mother, Wang Nianyun and others to the capital.

Shao's father and others who stayed in Shaojia Village received good news from the government long before Xiao Rong returned to Shaojia Village.

Shao’s father and mother were so happy to learn that their son had become the top scholar. Even though the Shao family was not very rich, they were still celebrating a banquet for guests. Wang Nianyun was also very excited. She never expected that she had a conflict with her family and married into the Shao family, the dilapidated family, but found a husband who Wenquxing came to the earth. Now, a business girl who was not respected by others has become the top scholar’s ​​wife! She was so happy that she felt that the girl who had her husband and Su Ling were much more cute.

When Xiao Ying returned to Qingyang County, he first visited the magistrate of Qingyang County, and then returned to Shao's house. He found that there were traffic in front of Shao's house. The merchants, landlords and others from Qingyang County sent people to congratulate and give gifts. It has been a constant stream for many days.

After ten years of hard work, no one asked me about it, and once I became famous, I knew the world.

Before Xiao Ying entered the Shao family's gate, Shao's father couldn't wait to come out to greet him, the son who made the Shao family's glorious ancestors.

Xiao Rong noticed that there were two middle-aged men in gorgeous clothes and furnished clothes beside Shao's father. After Shao's father introduced him, he realized that these two were big landlords in Qingyang County. He heard that he had come back and visited Shao's house in advance.

Xiao Ying had expected this situation. Although he was just a sesame official in the capital now, in Qingyang County, even if the county magistrate saw him, he would have to call himself a subordinate.

After sending the person away, Xiao Ying reminded Shao's father to say a few taboos in the officialdom, so that he would restrain the Shao family from being too proud, and then told them to move to the capital.

To be able to leave the mountain valley of Shaojia Village and go to the capital city is a good thing that many ordinary people cannot afford. Shao’s father, Shao’s mother, Wang Nianyun happily packed up his family, said goodbye to the people in the same village, and followed Xiao Huang on the road to the capital city.

*******

Being an official is simple, but being a good official is difficult. It is even more difficult to be a good official who can be promoted quickly.

However, Xiao Ying's unwillingness made him break the pace of promotion in history. The Hanlin Academy was originally an important institution for drafting a secret edict. It was extremely noble and called the Cabinet Reserve. There were still many opportunities to contact the emperor. It was not difficult to be appreciated by the emperor with Xiao Ying's ability, especially the emperor was an emperor who valued talents very much.

While Xiao Ying was secretly approaching the prince while shining the trust and favorability of the current emperor, his actions were very hidden. No one would have thought that when the prince gradually lost his holy heart, a new celebrity in front of the emperor would secretly follow the prince.

After traveling through time so many times, Xiao Ying was also an emperor, and he could basically understand the emperor's thoughts. He is highly valued by the emperor today. With his advice, the prince rarely violates the emperor's taboo again and gradually takes back the holy favor. The fourth prince was beaten by Xiao Ying a few times, lost some favor in front of the emperor, and temporarily fell silent and dormant.

In the original work, the fourth prince can become the final winner of the throne, which should not be underestimated. However, Xiao Ying had no intention of completely overthrowing the fourth prince. His purpose was to protect the prince from being deposed and successfully ascended the throne.

The prince naturally suppresses all other princes in terms of status. As long as he does not make mistakes, he will wait until the emperor kicks his legs and will be the next emperor. It will be easy to deal with the fourth prince at that time.

Xiao Ying kept thinking about how to make the prince's weight worse in the emperor's mind. He remembered that there was a brief sentence in the original plot that mentioned that the fourth prince seemed to have saved the emperor's life during a hunting period, so he added a big weight to the later battle for the throne.

Although there is no description of when and how the fourth prince rescued the emperor, this does not prevent Xiao Rong from speculating that if he wants to make the rescuing the emperor, he will have to find a way to help the fourth prince out of the hunting day and let the prince follow the emperor closely.

Xiao Ying felt that he had made great arrangements. He paved the way for the prince everywhere, just need to go on step by step.
