Capital.

Located in Shuntian Prefecture in the north, although it is not as prosperous as Yingtian Prefecture in the time of Emperor Gao, it has its own grand scene because of its vastness in the north.

But for the officials living in it, their comfort level is naturally far less than that of Yingtian Mansion located in the south of the Yangtze River. But if they ask whether they are willing to leave here and go to the comfortable Yingtian Mansion, they will inevitably be a slander or even a beating.

The reason is also very simple, two words - power.

Whether it is the world or the court, there is no difference between the people and the officials of the world who are mixed in it. They pursue fame and power. The only difference lies in the way they obtain it.

Similarly, just as different people rely on different ways to become famous, different officials want to rely on power.

And like the devil in the world, the method that works the fastest, but has the most sequelae, is to trade with the powerful officials or favorite concubines in the palace, or even sell themselves to join forces. Such examples were everywhere in the court a few years ago.

But just as magical martial arts are easy to get into evil spirits, killing one thousand enemies and destroying one hundred of them, the way to gain power is naturally quite dangerous. Even death and destruction of a clan cannot be considered miserable. The worst consequence is undoubtedly the eternal record of history books and the destruction of a thousand years. There are also many such examples after the Emperor ascended the throne. Moreover, a large part of these names that can be used as examples are overlapping with each other.

Although the emperor today is a generous person, not as mean and ungrateful as the founding man, his life is safe and without worries, it obviously does not mean that he can continue to hold power. Once the emperor and his ministers have been ascended the throne for nearly five years, there are not many old faces in the court. Those who were involved with the concubines of the late emperor at that time can no longer see any of them. However, some of them who were once close to Shang Ming, the governor of the former Dongchang, were able to continue to stay in the court.

Wang Bushi is such a fish that misses the net.

Of course, he was able to become a fish that missed the net because his fish was a bit too small. From the seventh rank, he was barely better than those eighth and ninth ranks who were not in the ranks and half-official and half-official. In addition, the former governor of the East Factory Shang Ming was always suppressed by Wang Zhi, the eunuch who commanded the West Factory. He could not make any waves at all. He was a small fish who had an affair with the East Factory, so he was lucky enough to escape the disaster.

A few years have passed, and his official position has not changed much. It is nothing more than removing the word "天" and adding the word "天" in front of the staff. It is impossible to make a fortune, but it is still a promotion. For an unpopular official who is from the same Jinshi, it cannot be said to be good, but it is absolutely not bad.

Two years after Emperor Jin ascended the throne, the matter of surrendering to Shang Ming was always like a fish bone in his heart, making him feel scared from time to time. Although judging from his various behaviors after his succession, Emperor Jin was a rare kind-hearted king, but he couldn't resist the censors who were also officials in the court liked to make trouble.

He himself is a censor, so he is not sure about the urinary nature of those "people"?

If his past events were revealed, in recent years, the "people" who have been able to spray some irrelevant trivial matters because of Emperor Jin's diligence and good use of them will definitely rush up like flies that smell the smell of a cesspool, eager to step on themselves and become famous.

Fortunately, Shang Ming, the governor of the East Factory, was sent to Fengyang to grow vegetables as early as when Emperor Jin ascended the throne, which made him less worried. As time passed day by day, Emperor Jin had succeeded to the throne for five years, and even he had gradually forgotten it in his heart, perhaps he deliberately made himself forget this matter.

But life always likes to give you a "big surprise" accidentally.

Wang Bushi wanted to forget this, but someone wanted to remind him.

"Who are you?! You dare to break into the home of the imperial court. Do you really think that the knife in the government's hands is not good and cannot cut off your tiny heads?" On this day, Wang Bushi, who was about to return home, just as soon as he walked into the study, he saw a young man wearing a short robe with a white face and a beardless face sitting at his desk, as if waiting for him. He couldn't help but feel shocked and angry, and immediately opened his mouth and yelled angrily.

"Mr. Wang, don't be so excited," the young man still looked calm, waved his hand gently, pointed to the chair in the room, and said to him like the master, "Let's sit down first, and let's talk slowly."

"Hmph, it's really ridiculous. Why should I listen to your assignment and sit in the guest seat in my house?" Looking at the young man's expression and movements, Wang Bushi was even more angry, but immediately, his face turned a little red due to anger and turned pale.

"Mr. Wang, don't say this too much." The young man leaned back, leaned back on the back of the chair, and spoke sarcastically, "I dare not say anything else. I think I can still make the decision in this study."

"You, you, you are..." Although he was only from the same Jinshi, he was able to go further from thousands of candidates. Wang Bushi was obviously not a fool. After a moment of thinking, he could hear the meaning behind the young man.

"It seems that Lord Wang has already remembered the past." The ridicule on the young man's face has turned into unconcealed pride, "Then do you think, can I be the master of this study?"

"I don't know that my father-in-law is coming, and the subordinate is abrupt." Wang Bushi, who was stronger than the man and looked extremely angry just now, was already like an eggplant beaten by frost. He was wilted, with a stern face, but had to lower his head and bow to the young man.

"The villain is just a servant who runs errands for the factory. He cannot bear the 'father-in-law' from Lord Wang, and he cannot bear the courtesy of this scholar." He was polite, but the young man still maintained his previous move of leaning against the back of the chair, and just waved his hands casually.

"I wonder if my father-in-law will have any advice for him today?" Wang Bushi, who wanted to step forward and strangle the other party, gritted his teeth, and finally gave up this tempting idea and asked stiffly.

"I dare not talk about advice," the young man was still polite as before, but his body remained motionless. "I just heard that Mr. Wang's career has been unsatisfied recently, so I want to give him some credit."

"The emperor hates your Dongchang the most today. In recent years, he has been dissatisfied with the Dongchang. Doesn't your factory understand your situation?" Wang Bushi frowned and looked at him with a little dissatisfaction, "Now it is no longer the late emperor's reign."

"Mr. Wang, don't be so scared," the young man disliked Wang Bushi's "kind warning". "The factory asked you to participate in the court, but the group of people you also hate." The young man finally stood up and looked at Wang Bushi with a chuckling face.

"How is it, Lord Wang? This is your excellent opportunity. If you can't grasp it, it will be cheaper for your colleagues."
