Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

In the Prince Consort's Mansion!

When King Shen Zhao Bai explained his intention, Wang Shen still said with righteous indignation:

"It's not that I am using my power to bully others, but I really can't stand it. His Royal Highness Duan Wang is young and doesn't understand the affairs of men and women, and he was almost taken advantage of by such a brothel girl. As an elder, how can I just sit back and watch."

Zhao Bao frowned slightly. From the royal standpoint, what Wang Shen did was not wrong. This was also the reason why Wang Shen had the confidence to force Li Shishi to become the king's concubine.

However, the influence of "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Box in Anger" is now so great that it directly reverses the public opinion of the government and the public, and the royal family has naturally changed its attitude.

"Now that the eleventh brother has stated that he has nothing to do with Master Li, I have been asked by Mr. Fan to ask the consort to expose this matter. After all, it has been spread that the royal family bullied a brothel girl, which is detrimental to the royal family's face." Zhao Bai said peacefully.

Wang Shen immediately promised: "His Royal Highness King Shen personally came forward to mediate, so naturally I will give him face. Since His Highness Prince Duan has let go of his worries, I will naturally not cause any trouble."

Wang Shen's banner was to stand up for Zhao Ji. Now that even Zhao Ji has vetoed the relationship with Li Shishi, Wang Shen naturally has no excuse to embarrass Li Shishi.

"Now that the matter has been resolved, I will take my leave!"

Zhao Bai nodded, stood up and left immediately.

Now that the blood relationship between the Prince Consort and the royal family has been severed, and Zhao Bai was not familiar with Wang Shen, he naturally did not want to stay longer.

"His Royal Highness Shen, walk slowly!"

Wang Shen smiled apologetically and sent Zhao Bai outside the gate of the Prince Consort's Mansion.

After Zhao Bai's figure disappeared, Wang Shen suddenly said with a gloomy look on his face: "How could you, Fan Zheng, ruin my good deeds!"

The reason why he tried so hard to please Zhao Ji was to increase his political capital. Shenzong had passed away, and his misdeeds back then were gradually forgotten. Now, although he has returned to Kaifeng City, he has been idle, eager to Find a real shortage.

Now that Zhao Ji was blamed by the royal family and banned, this time he stole the chicken but failed to lose the rice.

Although he lost Zhao Ji's line, Wang Shen did not give up on his quest for an official position. In the end, through various connections, he finally found Zeng Bu, the Privy Councilor, and asked him to intercede for him.

"I would like to ask Mr. Zeng to give you a good word about Wang!"

In Zeng's mansion, Wang Shen saluted solemnly.

Nowadays, the official reform is underway, and the new party is in full swing. With the official position of Privy Councilor, and Zeng Bu's recommendation, his quest for an official position will be more effective with half the effort.

"I will naturally go all out for the king's consort. It just so happens that the official family is short of someone to carry out the mission. Zeng is going to recommend you to the official family. I don't know if the emperor's consort will be satisfied." Zeng Bu agreed.

"Accept the decree!"

Wang Shen was immediately overjoyed. The person who accepted the order was a Hanlin scholar. He was ranked among the scholars and could handle all the major edicts, major abolitions, and important political affairs. It could be said that he was in a high and powerful position. This made Wang Shen, who regarded himself very highly, receive the order. I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Zeng! Wang will definitely be rewarded in the future." Wang Shen solemnly promised and thanked him repeatedly before leaving Zeng's house.

After Wang Shen left with satisfaction, Wang Di appeared from the back hall of the Zeng Mansion, frowning and saying: "The position of Cheng Zhi is extremely important. Wang Shen is a person who fails more than succeeds and fails. Do you really want to use him?"

He came here today to discuss with Zeng Bu the candidate to take over the mission. This position is extremely important. If it is controlled by the new party, it will be extremely beneficial to the new party.

Zeng Bu shook his head and said: "Wang Shen is a relative of the emperor after all. There is no need for us to offend him. If I had recommended him as an ordinary vacancy in ordinary times, it is naturally impossible to recommend him as the emperor."

"Then why do you still promise to elect Wang Shen for such an important position?" Wang Di asked in confusion. Now that he has promised to elect Wang Shen, if he fails to get things done, wouldn't it be just making an enemy for nothing.

"Because Chengzhi's position is so high and powerful, it is impossible for Wang Shen to be elected. I only need to wait until Fan Zheng is by His Majesty's side to be elected. By then, if Wang Shen loses the election, Fan Zheng will be the biggest suspect." Zeng Bu sneered.

Fan Zheng and the medical party have grown up enough to make the new party taboo. In particular, Fan Zheng has won the trust of officials, which makes Zeng Bu extremely afraid.

It happened that Wang Shen was at odds with Fan Zheng because of Li Shishi's incident. Taking advantage of Wang Shen's request for an official position, Zeng Bu's design to frame Fan Zheng could be said to be a smooth sailing.

"Wonderful! Wang Shen is arrogant and arrogant. In the future, he and Fan Zheng will definitely become mortal enemies and they will be against each other everywhere in the future. And Wang Shen is the consort. Even if Fan Zheng is favored again, I am afraid there will be nothing he can do to Wang Shen." Wang Di shouted Jue Dao.

Sure enough, Zeng Bu found an opportunity and deliberately recommended Wang Shen as the emperor in front of Fan Zheng.

"Wang Shen!" Fan Zheng frowned. Having experienced what happened with Master Li, Fan Zheng had a very bad impression of him.

"Wang Shen!"

Zhao Xu couldn't help but frown when he heard Zeng Bu's recommendation. Zhao Xu is the oldest among the princes, the other princesses are not yet married, and the only one who is the consort is his aunt.

He had heard about Wang Shen, the bastard prince-in-law, who allowed his concubine to treat the eldest princess of Shu disrespectfully, so he was dismissed from his official position.

The prince-in-law of the Song Dynasty was not taken seriously, and rarely received attention, let alone a idiot with a bad reputation like Wang Shen.

Sure enough, Zeng Bu's proposal was rejected by Zhao Xu.

In the end, considering that he was an elder, he reluctantly gave Wang Shen an official position in the Ministry of Rites.

Although Wang Shen was a fool, he was chosen as the prince's consort. His appearance could be said to be upright, and he could be used as a facade, responsible for receiving envoys from various countries, so he was able to make the best use of his resources.

"What? The officials asked me to go to Honglu Temple."

In the Prince Consort's Mansion, Wang Shen was immediately in an uproar after receiving the news from Zeng Bu.

The imperial edict was due to the high authority of the emperor's close ministers, and Honglu Temple was an institution under the Ministry of Rites, and was only responsible for receiving envoys from various countries. In addition, the Liao and Xia were powerful, and the envoys from the two countries were often arrogant and bossy. The temple is a doormat.

Zeng Bu deliberately angered Wang Shen and said: "Zeng recommended you to carry out the decree, and His Majesty had no objections. However, Fan Taicheng did not agree. You also know that the officials obeyed Fan Taicheng's words, and Zeng could do nothing. He could only retreat and do the next best thing." You seek to create a real shortage of Honglu Temple."

"Fan Zheng!" Wang Shen gritted his teeth.

Zeng Bu comforted him hypocritically: "Don't be discouraged, the king's consort. Now the Song Dynasty is attacking Qingtang, and envoys from Liao and Xia are coming one after another. It is the time for Honglu Temple to hire people. In the future, the Song Dynasty will have strong soldiers and horses, and Honglu Temple will He will definitely hold an important position in the imperial court, and he will be able to live up to the trust of the consort."

"Thank you, Mr. Zeng!" Wang Shen pinched his nose and said.

After Zeng Bu left, Wang Shen was furious and said bitterly: "Fan Zheng, I and you are incompatible with each other."

Wang Shen secretly held a grudge against Fan Zheng, but he did not give up his position in Honglu Temple. Although Honglu Temple was a Qingshui Yamen and was often annoyed by the Liao and Xia countries, it was still better than his previous idle position.

In addition, what Zeng Bu said is true. Now that the Song Dynasty has a thunderous power, it is gradually gaining confidence. Although the Song Dynasty is currently unwilling to break up with the Liao Kingdom, it no longer needs to be coy about Xixia.

"I am reporting to the officials that the Battle of Hehuang has not been won for a long time. The Liao and Xia envoys have been putting pressure on us. If the delay lasts for a long time, things may change."

In Chui Gong Hall, Wang Shen could not wait to express himself as soon as he took office.
