Fantasy: Starting Out as a Gigolo, Born a Confucian Sage

Chapter 179

Shen Wuming walked over, and the woman turned her head and swayed to the pavilion. She had already brewed a pot of tea.

"Have a drink!"

The woman did not use magic control like last time, but stretched out her jade hand to lift the teapot.

Pour him a cup of tea.

Slender fingers held it up and placed it in front of him. The tea was clear, the jade fingers were elegant, and the joints were clear.

The skin is like peeled bamboo shoots, soft and smooth, but the joints are extremely stylish and eye-catching.

"Thank you!"

Shen Wuming said something, then picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. He felt that the Lingtai was much clearer.

"I already know what happened today. King Wei and Jing Zhaoyin set up a plan to take the spring exam like you!"

"I wonder if they are making a fuss out of a molehill, or are you really so hated?"

The woman's expression was calm, but her tone was slightly brisk, as if she was slightly teasing.

Shen Wuming shrugged, "I'm also very helpless, I don't even know who King Wei is."

"It's probably my father-in-law who offended his old rival again. Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'm used to it."

Chu Pingshan's participation in the reform was really too involved and had too many opponents.

Now is the time when the opponent is proud. It has to be said that there is a lot of trouble.

However, when the soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when the water comes, the earth will cover them up.

He complained, but there was not much resentment in his heart, but a faint expectation.

"You are wrong about that."

The woman shook her head, "The King of Wei did not attack you because of your father-in-law, but because of yourself."

"It can be said that your original policy statement affected the lives of countless courtiers."

"Especially the fact that you changed your mind and returned to your native land made the King of Wei feel chills running down his back. He attacked you in the court many times."

"It is said that you disturbed the order of the government and the public, caused the people on the border to alienate, and made the leaders of the various ministries uneasy."

"If the emperor hadn't suppressed you, you would have been sent to the sky prison with a piece of paper."

"Ah?" Shen Wuming was stunned for a moment. Wasn't this something promoted during the Qing Dynasty?

According to the textbook, everything went smoothly and there was no strong resistance?

"Is he sick?"

Shen Wuming stretched his neck, "Isn't he a descendant of the royal family? Why does he care about the people on the border?"

"And they want to send me in... I have written out my strategy and everyone knows it."

"He just sent me in. His Majesty wants to promote it, and the court wants to promote it. Can he stop me?"

Shen Wuming was as speechless as he could be. When the strategy was written, he simply copied it from a history book.

As for the subsequent controversy, he didn't take it too seriously.

After all, there are all kinds of reform proposals, and it does not mean that they can be formulated into government decrees just by putting them on paper.

For example, the method of green crops, the method of protecting armor, the return of local people to Liu, and the return of fire to the public were not only proposed in the Song and Qing dynasties.

It's more just that these two dynasties had the strength to promote it. In other eras, some people thought about it, and some people mentioned it, but they didn't push it.

"So, King Wei is very stupid."

The woman's white and soft fingertips rubbed the handle of the teapot, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a disdainful smile.

"Okay, let's not say so much. I just want to ask you. Don't you want to come back with revenge?"

"What do you mean?" Shen Wuming raised his eyebrows, "Today He Wenguang exposed King Wei in public, do you still need me to take revenge?"

"Is it possible that as the king of Wei, he committed such a serious mistake and the court would not punish him?"

As far as he knew, although the current empress was mediocre, she was not mediocre and could naturally see the situation clearly.

If the King of Wei murders a young scholar, the court may not be able to protect him.

But after He Wenguang admitted it in public, it was completely different.

No matter how stupid a person is, they must take into account the public opinion. Otherwise, how can they give an explanation to the government and the opposition?

"It's not that simple!"

The woman shook her head, "King Wei, his father is the late emperor's younger brother. He even assisted the late emperor in entering the Golden Palace!"

"To show the deep brotherhood, the late emperor specially granted a gold medal of immunity from death, which can be exempted from death for all crimes other than treason!"

"So even if the court pursues the blame, King Wei will just be reprimanded and confiscate some gold and silver."

"Would you be satisfied if we could only do this?"

After hearing what the woman said, Shen Wuming figured out the connection.

"That's definitely not satisfactory." He shook his head on the spot, "He wants to kill me, so I will naturally kill him too."

"That's easy to handle!" The woman smiled, and her originally cold and snowy smile disappeared.

The moment her smile burst out, the whole world seemed to light up, making people fascinated.

"Gudong!"

Shen Wuming's throat rolled. Even though he had seen many beauties, he couldn't help but look at her infatuatedly.

What a nice view!

But within a split second, he came to his senses and shook his head to wake himself up.

What's the use of being beautiful?

She's just a violent woman, how can she compare to the gentleness and virtuousness of my own wife?

Seeing that he had come to his senses so quickly, the woman couldn't help but look at him in surprise.

"Do you know why King Wei is so opposed to returning home?" the woman said with a sweet smile.

"have no idea."

Shen Wuming shook his head truthfully. Although he also knew some information about court officials, it was only part of it that was made public.

As for the turbulence in the dark, I'm not quite sure.

After all, this kind of thing would never be spoken carelessly unless it was someone close to it.

Chu Pingshan was the only one who knew him well, but it had been idle for many years, so how could the government situation not change?

"Because the previous King of Wei once led the Western Expedition and wiped out the barbarians in the northwest, we have a close relationship with them."

"Nowadays, the heads of the various tribes in the northwest are vaguely headed by the Palace of the King of Wei, but the King of Wei is the only one who is following the lead!"

"If we change the status quo and the leaders of various tribes become nobles, without the power they had in the past, the Wei Palace will fall!"

Shen Wuming reacted quickly, "So you mean, I can make a fuss in this?"

"Exactly so!"

The woman blinked, "Now the Tiele tribe has sent envoys to the DPRK, bringing some tributes and contacting the DPRK-China relations!"

"He even sent a rather taboo treasure to Prince Wei's Mansion. If you can use your means to expose it..."

Shen Wuming's eyes were slightly closed. If what this woman said was true, then King Wei would definitely be involved.

But the question is, can this woman be trusted?

"I admit that what you said is very tempting, but how do I know that what you say is true?"

Shen Wuming shook his head, "Relatively speaking, I still hope to solve the problem in my own way."

"What about?" The woman was not angry, but rather curious.

A candidate for the Spring Examination who has no official position and is just a commoner to put it bluntly, how can he deal with the current prince?

Shen Wuming chuckled, "As long as I know who the person is, I will naturally have a way to deal with him."
