Your Highness, the Empress Runs Away Again - C249 hope for fulfillment
“Very good.” Wei He nodded. “But people tend to be too persistent, so it’s not a good thing.”
If she had been wrong from the start, then continuing to be stubborn was adding to her mistakes and never becoming right, just like her feelings for someone.
“Your Highness, please speak a few words on behalf of this commoner.” He was sincere and respectful.
“Beautiful words?” Qi He couldn’t understand his words, “You want me to put in a good word for you in front of your father?”
His master didn’t have much of a relationship with the officials, but his father was different. As long as his father asked, there would always be an official position for Lin Mu Gan to do, regardless of whether he was big or small. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had to have sufficient talent.
Lin Mu Gan smiled with relief. “The princess is extremely intelligent.”
The heavens had made him lose the possibility of joining the Imperial Advisor, and had also made him meet Qi and Princess, which meant that the heavens had treated him well, like closing a door and opening a window.
Qi He wasn’t happy at the praise. “Since you knew that the possibility of joining the Duke’s Mansion would be greater, why did you come to the Imperial Advisor’s estate first?”
This question was worthy of further investigation.
Lin Mu Gan was initially worried, but after chatting with Qi He for a while, he could tell that she was a frank person and didn’t like to beat around the bush, so he bluntly said, “This commoner did indeed want to go to the Prince’s Mansion first, but the Prince must be in a bad mood because of Princess’s matter. It’s useless for this commoner to go.”
But no matter how perfect a person was, it could not escape the weakness of human nature. In the eyes of the family, Prince Fu was a father, so it was impossible for him to be in the mood to receive a guest even after what had happened.
Wei He understood. “That’s right, that’s why you’ve been pestering yourself at the Imperial Advisor’s estate and refusing to leave.”
She didn’t finish her sentence, but it seemed like this: He found out from her that the chances of getting help from the Imperial Advisor was very slim, so he had no choice but to open his mouth, wanting to fight until the last breath of time.
People always want to try everything they can to get to the other side of success.
“I hope the princess can grant my wish.” Lin Mu Gan kowtowed to her.
“I do want to help you, but Imperial Uncle told me that I can’t allow a woman to be involved in politics. If I recommended you to Royal Father, I’m afraid that I might get into some unnecessary trouble.” Qi He didn’t really express her fear of getting into trouble, but wanted to test the depths of his belief in being an official and to see what kind of words he would use to persuade his.
Thinking of her, since when did she retreat out of fear of trouble, always rushing forward bravely. Even though she was riddled with injuries, she had no regrets.
“Your Highness, as the emperor, you should have planned this for Xuan Yue.” Your Highness, as the emperor, you should have planned this for Xuan Yue. In this world, it was a very painful thing for a man to be so untalented.
“You mean, I shouldn’t have buried my talent out of fear of trouble?” He asked the question more clearly.
“This commoner doesn’t dare.” Although Lin Mu Gan spoke the truth, he didn’t say anything that he shouldn’t. If he did, it would be disadvantageous to him.
He would not make a mistake as low as this.
Qi He lowered his eyes to think for a long time before slowly opening his lips, “Fine, I can discuss this with master first. If it’s feasible, I will recommend you to father. You can go back and wait for news.”
Although Lin Mu Gan was a proud and arrogant person, he wasn’t a big problem. Moreover, she had experienced many things, so she could understand him and give him a bit of hope.
“Thank you, Your Highness. This commoner is waiting for you.”
Any opportunity, as long as you grasp it, will be the motivation to change your life.
During dinner, Qin Fei ate at the same table as Qi and Wei.
When the master saw that the disciple seemed to have something on his mind, he asked in concern, “What? Is it not to my liking? ”
It would be hard for the chef to make the vegetable dish taste better.
“Nope.” Qi He put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at his master. “I think Lin Mu Gan can actually be used again. Why …”
“Qi He, are you complaining about his injustice?” Qin Fei’s expression was calm.
Actually, it didn’t matter whether the answer was yes or no, it was still a good thing for Wei He. After all, she could devote her entire body and mind to one thing, and not have to be depressed everyday and live like a zombie.
“A bit. More of sympathy.” “From him, I seem to see how difficult it is for a Humble Class student to achieve what he wants. Everyone in the family wishes for him to bring glory to their ancestors. If his wish fails, it will be the sorrow of a family.”
“Maybe. “However, do you want to know why it is so difficult for Lin Fan to overcome his talent?” Qin Fei suddenly asked this question.
There must be something more to it.
Qi He shook his head, indicating that he really didn’t know.
Her true understanding of Lin Mu Gan only started today, so there were some things that she didn’t fully understand, and she still needed to borrow the strength of others.
“At first, I didn’t pay attention to him. Afterwards, he paced back and forth in front of the manor gate every day. Although I didn’t say it out loud, I secretly investigated him to see if he was worthy enough for me to make an exception for him. After all, everyone’s perseverance is precious.”
“And then?” Qi He couldn’t wait.
“Later on, I learned from the teacher reading the papers that his literary talent was indeed good, but those so-called principles of governing the land and peace were all empty words and impossible to carry out. At first, I did not believe him until I saw with my own eyes the results of his test.” Although Qin Fei had no interest in recruiting wise men for the imperial government, when people came knocking on his door, even if he did not care, he could not say anything about it. However, when he truly did care about this matter, he knew that it was not worth it at all.
“So that’s how it is.” Wei He nodded. No wonder. For such an arrogant and conceited person, his talent should be similar to his character.
However, in the end, it was still a pity. He was sincere, but his own conditions were insufficient.
Qin Fei continued to speak, “To the Imperial Court, what they need is a person who can seek truth from facts. However, he talked about everything on paper and took everything for granted, thinking that everything would change as he expected. This is not a good thing for the people below.
Qin Fei only wanted to explain his reasons for not helping Lin Mu Gan to her. As for whether or not the people would suffer, it had nothing to do with him.
Although he had put in a lot of effort during the battle against Dongluo Clan, it was only because it was difficult to refuse. As an Imperial Advisor, how could he not look down upon him?
Everything was for her, his beloved disciple.
