Chapter 241

The Red Man in the Front

Being named "Princess" seems to have no effect on Xue Mei.

When she was just the eldest lady of the Xue family and even the county lord was not, she dared to refuse Princess Baoqing's invitation.

Now, she is the princess, and with her own ability, the emperor has made the emperor bypass her father and brother and personally awarded the "princess" that she is more important than the princess.

In feudal society, women did not have independent personality.

The emperor usually rewards his husband and son when he rewards them with his rewards, which makes them more decent, not the lady himself.

Princess, because she was born as the emperor's daughter.

The princess is usually the prince's daughter, which is also very precious; or if both father and brother have made meritorious deeds, the emperor appeases her family, so that the princess can be rewarded with such a great reward, such as Qi Siran.

Like Xue Mei, who has made achievements and was named the princess for her own abilities, is the first person in the history of the Liang Kingdom.

In this dynasty, including Xue Mei, there were only four living princesses, two of whom were over fifty years old, and they were the emperor's cousin and the former prince's daughter; the remaining one was Qi Siran, who was the orphanage and the prominent mother's family, so she received this reward.

The incident of Xue Mei being named the princess caused a sensation in the court and the public.

This matter exceeded the scope of the inner house, and the court was also asking about it, and the censor even asked about the reason for the matter.

Soon, the emperor gave an answer: Imperial Examination.

The first imperial examination was also carried out in accordance with Xue Mei's suggestion. It was very simple. On June 15th, that is, forty days later, each prominent family with the qualifications to elect, selected ten children to take the exam held by the emperor.

"Due to the money and silver issue, it is related to taxation, and the Ministry of Revenue needs to add a sixth-rank chief, two seventh-rank clerks, and seventh-rank clerks; taxation also concerns the administration of the officials, and the Ministry of Personnel also needs to add another ten people."

The Minister of Personnel was the emperor's confidant, and he explained the exam.

It is still necessary for prominent families to recommend people to take the exam, so the resistance they encounter will be much smaller.

For prominent families, the children of their families who are incompetent and the illegitimate sons who cannot be elected as officials have a future and strengthen their momentum. They are very excited.

They would not have thought that the court would kidnap these children and tie them up on the imperial examination ship.

They refused to admit the imperial examination system, but they were denying themselves. They just relied on the imperial examination system to enter the officialdom.

Step by step, we will divide the prominent families first, and then implement them nationwide.

Except for a very few emperors, no one knew the intention of the court. He just thought that the emperor was worried about taxes and was anxious to seek medical treatment.

"This exam was suggested by Princess Chengyang, so Your Majesty named her the princess."

The truth was revealed for a moment.

Xue Mei can speak well in front of the emperor, she is considered a celebrity in front of the emperor.

This princess has added another 10% of its weight.

The emperor was very happy, and the clans were very excited. The polite sons who had no chance but were very talented were so excited that they couldn't sleep.

Only a few people have a clear mind and feel that there is a hidden trick in it - the emperor's exam is likely to destroy the foundation of the prominent clan.

The foundation of the prominent family is the power of recommendation in their hands. This power has already hindered the imperial power.

But if the children can become officials, the prominent families will also benefit.

When everyone in a family was red from the eyes of power, the clear-headed voice had long been drowned.

Among the children of prominent families, those who have no chance or have no chance for the time being will study hard all night long.

Among them is Wang Hongge.

Wang Hongge is already extremely talented.

"Only examine the contents of the Ming Jing, Your Majesty mainly looks at your current affairs."

This is what came from the court.

The "Ming Jing" was founded in the Han Dynasty and Wang Hongge has long been familiar with it. He has written countless books on the national governance strategy, and many of them are famous all over the world.

Now just need to re-warm.

His success is just around the corner.

Many noble ladies also visited Xue Mei, hoping to understand the emperor's intentions more clearly.

Xue Mei also refused.

Although she refused, the old lady and the third lady did not refuse. They took the opportunity to make friends with many maids and were proud for a while.

Mrs. Xue no longer spoke of Xue Yutan. Instead, she was sincerely proud when she mentioned Xue Mei.

Xue Mei went to the palace every day and circled around the palaces of Empress Dowager Hu, Empress Dowager Qi, Empress Dowager Dan Tai, Concubine Shu and Concubine De.

These concubines, like the concubines in the Prince Ancheng's mansion, knew that Xue Mei would not harm them, nor would there be any conflict of interests with them, and could gain some benefits from her, so they would all be happy to see her.

Especially Empress Dowager Hu.

Empress Dowager Hu took the compound vitamins given by Xue Mei, and was urged by Xue Mei to get up early and exercise every day. Now she is energetic and can eat and sleep. Even the emperor was surprised to see it.

"What kind of medicine did you use for the Empress Dowager?" the emperor asked her.

Xue Mei: "Your Majesty, although this medicine is very useful, it is also quite troublesome. After taking the medicine, you need to walk around the Imperial Garden for half an hour before Si Shi, and breathe the energy of the Holy Spirit in the weather."

That is to say, before nine o'clock every morning, you bask me the sun for an hour in the imperial garden and take an hour of steps.

As long as you have nothing to do with it, everyone will be in good health by exercising like this and basking in the sun all day long.

"Before Chen Zheng?" the emperor hesitated, "I have not given a morning court in Chen Zheng Shi."

He was indeed very moved.

Xue Mei said: "It can also be after Shenzheng. However, this method can only be used by Your Majesty, and your body is full of yang energy."

In other words, if you are going to take a walk after four o'clock in the afternoon, the effect will be the same.

Emperor: "Then give me some medicine to try."

Empress Dowager Hu has not been sick for the past six months, and she looks more energetic than Empress Yun. The female official who served her also said that Empress Dowager had a good sleep.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Hu was in a good mood and had not been making trouble for the emperor for a long time.

Xue Meidao is.

Western medicine also recognizes the effect of "placebo".

Like Empress Dowager Hu, the emperor didn't know whether it was a multivitamin or the benefits of basking in the sun and taking a walk. He only knew that after taking it for two days, he was indeed full of energy all day long.

He sighed in his heart that this medicine is easy to use.

Just after Xue Mei ran into the palace for half a month, Concubine Dan Tai went to meet Empress Dowager Hu.

The imperial concubine has always been disrespectful to this mother-in-law, but this time she has a good attitude.

After hearing her words, Empress Dowager Hu sent someone to invite the emperor.

The emperor was in a good mood recently. With Xue Mei fooling him to exercise and take vitamins, he was also in good spirits, so he went to Empress Dowager Hu's side.

This mother and son only think that Xue Mei gave him a magic medicine.

Xue Mei also said that this medicine is rare and if you want to supply it to the emperor and Empress Dowager Hu for a long time, you will not be able to give it to others.

"Your Majesty, do you know that Princess Chengyang, who was recently granted imperial title, has been running into the palace every day for these days?" Empress Dowager Hu asked the emperor.

This was ordered by Concubine Dan Tai.

Otherwise, Empress Dowager Hu wouldn't have noticed it herself.

The emperor did not know that Xue Mei entered the palace every day, and she would go to the inner court every time she came. Moreover, she already had a gold medal in medicine and could enter the palace at any time.

"What's wrong with her?" asked the emperor.
