In the palace at this time.

Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood.

As an emperor, during his tenure, he not only conquered smallpox, an epidemic that his predecessors had never conquered.

Get unprecedented high yields of crops.

Now he has won another young top scorer who has won the sixth yuan.

Aren’t these signs telling the future of his prosperity in the Ming Dynasty?

I think of the sweet potatoes planted in Northern Zhili at the beginning of this spring.

He felt that he was full of motivation and could make another hundred memorials!

Here we are full of motivation to deal with political affairs, and good things are coming from there.

Last year, Mou Bin, the leader of the Jinyiwei who sent to Japan, finally came back with the boat!

I haven't come back before, so I naturally didn't find what I wanted.

Now that I’m back, what I brought back is naturally self-evident.

Emperor Hongzhi was excited and quickly said, "Hurry up!"

Mou Bin walked in with a few Jinyiwei.

Several people knelt on one knee on the ground, and Mou Bin held a wooden box in his hand.

"The emperor, I am lucky to have fulfilled my mission."

Emperor Hongzhi sent his left and right away, and all the eunuchs were sent outside the hall to wait.

He walked down himself and took the wooden box.

In the wooden box, there were a few unsorted gold and silver pieces.

Mou Bin continued: "According to the emperor's instructions, my subordinates took their men to search on the Japanese island for a long time."

"Finally, we found the two mines that the emperor mentioned."

"However, the gold mine is now occupied by Japanese slaves and is being mined."

"And silver mines have not been discovered yet."

All these were said to Zhao Ce, and they were all matched one by one.

Looking at the gold and silver in his hand, Emperor Hongzhi felt happy.

Sure enough, I believed Zhao Ce’s decision at the beginning, and it was right!

He was very happy and shouted, "Okay!"

"Very good!"

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"Go down and have some rest first. I will arrange a large army to go to the island and prepare for mining!"

After Mou Bin and others knelt down, they left first.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the gold and silver in the wooden box and felt excited and unable to calm down for a long time.

It seems that after Zhao Ce arrived in the capital, these things were all great things.

“By the way…”

"The editor of Hanlin Academy is really not very good..."

Logically speaking, the top three in the first three will basically be awarded positions such as Hanlin editors.

Such a person will definitely not work if he edits books.

Emperor Hongzhi respected the meaning of the classics, and he also knew that Zhao Ce was full of amazing ideas.

And they are all ideas that can truly bring benefits to the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi was not prepared to let Zhao Ce go to the Hanlin Academy to edit books at the beginning.

After all, he, a person who can write books by himself, needs to leave a name on history books by editing books?

"Ministry of Revenue...Ministry of War...Ministry of Personnel?"

Emperor Hongzhi sent someone to transfer a list of vacant official positions and planned to personally select a position for Zhao Ce that suits him.

Of course, this position will definitely not be too high at the beginning.

It's just a springboard.

Now the six ministers and three ministers are basically very old.

His expectations for Zhao Ce should be in these positions.

But after looking at it, I felt that no one seemed to be very good.

Inadequately, the position is too low, and inadequately, there are too many errands.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at it for a while and decided to wait until he met the new Jinshi tomorrow and then discuss it with several cabinet masters.

I happily put this matter down for the time being and continued to deal with political affairs.

......

The next day.

It is the time when the new Jinshi met Tianrong and presented his thank-you letter.

As the top scholar in the Jin Dynasty, Zhao Ce wore the top scholar robe personally given by the emperor and led all the energetic Jinshi into the palace with great energy.

In Fengtian Hall.

Emperor Hongzhi had a red face and seemed to be ten years younger.

My slightly tired face has been dealing with new policies since the Chinese New Year, and has also stretched out.

As soon as Zhao Ce entered, he felt Emperor Hongzhi's fiery eyes fall on him.

The hot eyes seemed to the emperor who wanted to marry him directly.

Although the rest did not dare to look directly into the emperor's eyes, they also felt the emperor's specialness towards Zhao Ce.

Everyone lowered their heads slightly and looked at the ground.

I was also full of envy and jealousy towards Zhao Ce in my heart.

Zhao Ce thought that his new top scorer was really a hot topic.

When he was granted a title of marquis, he never received such treatment.

Take back your random thoughts.

Zhao Ce was in the hall, holding the thank-you watch with both hands.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Ce, the new top scholar in the college, will present a thank-you note."

"Thank you for your great kindness and help you to serve the court and Your Majesty."

After a beautiful scene, Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly.

The eunuch next to him took the thank-you form and brought it up.

After Emperor Hongzhi took the thank-you form, he was about to open it and take a look.

I felt a sensation of itchy throat.

He tried hard to suppress it for a while, coughed a few times, and finally relieved the itch.

He took the thank-you form and encouraged the students a few more words.

Only after the etiquette was completed, everyone was ready to leave.

Emperor Hongzhi said directly: "Get back."

"Jinke's top pick Zhao Ce stayed."

Before everyone left the venue, they looked at Zhao Ce with admiration.

When the people in the hall left, Emperor Hongzhi informed Zhao Ce of the news that Mou Bin and others who had returned from Japan.

After hearing this, Zhao Ce thought it was true.

Japanese slaves are now mining the gold mine, but the silver mine has not been excavated yet.

This is good news.

After Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking, he said happily: "You are the first contribution to this mining search."

"I want to commend you, what do you want?"

Zhao Ce really couldn't imagine what he wanted.

However, compared to these, Zhao Ce has more important things to say.

He directly informed Emperor Hongzhi that he had obtained potatoes, and also mentioned Mr. Wu's contribution.
