The situation seemed to change in the blink of an eye. I thought Qingliu would take charge of the government again, but no one expected that it would be a cold winter. Qingliu in Nanjing did not return to the center of power, but instead welcomed more Qingliu officials, including his current superior, Wang Yongbin, the Minister of Rites.

One by one, the honest officials were labeled as Li Mo and were assigned to Nanjing, and some were even directly removed from their posts.

It was also from that day that Yin Tai clearly realized that the emperor's emphasis on Li Mo was just a balancing technique, and he never thought of letting Qingliu dominate the government. He favored a flattering obedient official like Yan Song.

Yan Song was undoubtedly the chief minister who was in line with the emperor's wishes. He could transfer all the money from the large warehouse to the emperor's pocket. The money transferred from the large warehouse to the inner warehouse every year is more than one million taels.

If they were the pure officials in power, like Li Mo, who was in the world, were the chief minister, they would probably not agree to the emperor's arbitrary behavior. Especially now that Altan invades the border in the north, there are troubles of Japanese pirates in the south, and there are refugees everywhere. How can the country's finances be only for the emperor to squander it?

As soon as he thought of this, Yin Tai knew that if he held Qingliu, he would only live to the Nanjing Ministry of Rites. At least he would not have the chance to turn around in Jiajing.

Zhang Cong and Yan Hao could jump out of the muddy seed in Nanjing because they could see through the mystery.

Just as he was thinking about where to go, the calm lake in Nanjing was rippling again, and an imperial edict came from the north, allowing the Nanjing Ministry of Rites to preside over the provincial examinations in several southern provinces.

In the power of the court, in addition to human rights and financial power, there is also the power to take the lead in the imperial examination. Entering the imperial examination was the only way to become an official in the Ming Dynasty, and the person who guarded this path benefited a lot because these new imperial examination candidates or Jinshi would become his disciples.

After Yin Tai was awarded the chief examiner of the Guangdong Provincial Examination, he, the right waiter of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, was immediately crossed the threshold. In addition to some who wanted to talk to his children, some people felt that he had the possibility of re-activated, so they also came to curry favor with him.

However, among so many people, someone who surprised him deeply was welcomed, to be precise, a letter.

"Don't let the emperor down in the old mountains, and we will gather in the capital in the future!"

This was a letter written by his fellow townsman Yan Ge Lao, and the person who sent the letter made him feel very meaningful. It was Dai Yi, the Minister of Works, who was right-hand man from Dai Yi, who indeed had some entrusted him.

Speaking of which, Yan Song also appreciated him quite well. When he first passed the imperial examination, he sent an olive branch to marry him.

However, although Yan Hao was the Minister of Personnel at that time, his official position was in Nanjing, and he was already fifty-five years old, and his official reputation was not good. On the other hand, Yin Chongji, who was a new first-class Jinshi, became an official position in the Beijing Hanlin Academy, and his future was bright.

It was precisely because he refused the recruitment of the Secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Personnel and had no choice but to throw himself into Qingliu's arms.

But who would have thought that just one year later, Yan Song came to the capital to celebrate the Wanbao Festival. Because the court discussed revising the history of the Song Dynasty, he was in charge of the affairs with the title of Minister of Rites and Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and from then on it was out of control.

However, Yan Song has always appreciated him quite well and always wanted to recruit him. But he claimed to be noble and did not want to follow such treacherous ministers, hoping that the court could rectify the chaos.

Even though he was transferred to Nanjing Imperial College to sacrificial wine, he still kept on with this idea. But reality was still a little cruel to him. Li Mo, the Minister of Personnel, whom he had high hopes, fell, which made him wake up.

Yan Hao chose to find him at this time, and his intention was undoubtedly obvious, and he had an assessment intention. He obviously hoped that he would "do" in this Guangdong provincial examination. If he did things well, he would be transferred back to the capital.

After Li Mo died in prison and Wang Yongbin was demoted to Nanjing, Yan Hao elected Wu Peng from Yan's party to the Minister of Personnel, but the Minister of Rites did not use the arrangements for their own people, but used Wu Shan, who was a righteous official.

According to Yan Song's usual practice, he would inevitably arrange his own people in the Ministry of Rites' service, and he seemed to be the person Yan Song wanted.

"Ministry of Rites is here to wait for you!"

Yin Tai's eyes slowly opened, looking out the door, with a hint of yearning. He just needed to dye himself black, and what greeted him was not thunder, but rain and dew.

The four examiners, but they didn't know the complicated hearts of the examiner, were reviewing the paper carefully. The nonsense test papers would be mercilessly lost, but the slightly smoother test papers would be recommended.

Deputy examiner Li Mu was very serious, and his review standards were improved one level. He would knock down mediocre test papers, and a slightly outstanding test paper would write the word "take" and then hand it to Yin Tai.

The review process is proceeding in an orderly manner, and more and more test papers are sent to Yin Tai's case.

Perhaps because of his worries, Yin Tai's speed was not very fast, and the sun was setting in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Jiushan, this test paper is quite literary, please read it carefully!" Li Mu sent another test paper and left him a meaningful look.

Yin Tai immediately let out a "knock" and knew that what should be come or not. But he suppressed the tension in his heart, took the test paper without any trace, unfolded the test paper that had just been sent, and read it through from beginning to end.

The article is actually written well, between taking or not, but he found three strange places. The first article uses the function word "Ruofu", the second article uses the function word "Yu Xiuzai", and the third article uses "Wouldn't it be a pity".

Yin Tai is naturally not a fool, so he didn't know that these are "passing bytes". Now he only needs to turn a blind eye and write the word "中" on it. The bright future will be waiting for him.

He picked up his pen, but suddenly struggled inside. On the one hand, he had persisted in his faith for twenty years, but on the other hand, he had the real power to serve the Ministry of Rites.

But he didn't know that when he was struggling with his pen, Li Mu was secretly watching him. In addition, there was also the director of the inner curtain of the provincial examination, the Jinyiwei Qianhu Zhu Jiu.

Zhu Jiu is a Qianhu of Guangzhou Wei, and he served as the supervisor of the provincial examination this time. Like these examiners, he also had to live here for a while and not leave until the review was over.

He had a coffin face, but his eagle eyes were quite sharp. After noticing Li Mu's strangeness, his eyes fell on the examiner Yin Tai.

call!

Yin Tai seemed to have made a decision, and his hand slowly fell to the test paper. Li Mu's mouth was slightly raised, while Zhu Jiu's face was shining and his eyes became gloomy.
Chapter completed!
