Master He now realizes this extremely heavy price.
The fragrant honey cake was so sweet in retrospect, and the smooth duck strip porridge seemed to be mixed with sand, which hurt my throat.
If God gives him another chance to come back, he will definitely say: "Your Majesty, I have had breakfast."
He Shen hesitated for a moment. There were ten thousand reasons why Changsun Wuji could not be promoted. He thought about it and picked the most reasonable one: "Your Majesty, I will ask Changsun Wuji to make a history when I go back today. But if I go up, It won’t be promoted.”
"Why?"
Li Qian frowned slightly: "Since I came to the throne, what I have seen is that the country is in decline, corruption is rampant, and the government is corrupt. The Heqing family is in charge of the official department and is responsible for the selection. It should be accepted by the court in an eclectic way. How can talents fall behind the mold of qualifications?"
I believed your evil deeds!
Talents are your relatives, right?
He Shen didn't care to complain and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I don't want to promote him anymore, not because of his qualifications, but for his own good!"
"A county official has a lot of power, but he is still a low-ranking official. But if he is promoted to the chief clerk, he will be a ninth-rank official, and he will no longer be able to take the imperial examination!"
"Since the rise of the imperial examination, although there are still many officials with civil service backgrounds, they will only reach the fourth rank at most and then stop abruptly. It is difficult to continue to make achievements!"
"Moreover, officials who have not passed the imperial examination will also attract criticism in the officialdom. Colleagues who have been through the imperial examination will be ostracized by their superiors, and everything will go wrong. Therefore, I still suggest that your majesty let him take the imperial examination. Even if he is only an examiner, he will not be successful. Much better than being naked!"
Li Qian was silent for a moment, as if this was indeed the case.
Changsun Wuji seems to have said that day that his uncle asked him to practice as a minor official, and then he would have to take the imperial examination.
"I told the Qing family well, but I didn't think about it." Li Qian nodded thoughtfully.
He Shen hurriedly bowed and said: "I am just a little clever and do some bits and pieces of work. The real general direction still depends on you, Your Majesty."
Can talk.
Li Qian nodded. If he didn't get any jujubes from the east, he would just hit the west: "Changsun Wuji has not been in the imperial examination, but Gao Shilian and Gao Lang must have achieved fame!"
"For someone as capable as him to have sat in the position of doctor for so long, I feel that it is really inappropriate."
I don't know if he is really weak, but he is sweating constantly on his shiny forehead.
"Your Majesty, if Gao Langzhong wants to continue to be promoted in the capital, it will be difficult for me to do so."
He Shen wiped his sweat and said helplessly: "Gao Langzhong is already a fifth-rank official, but there is no fourth-rank official position in Shangshu Province, so he must be transferred."
"But the officials of the Five Temples, Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province are all under the jurisdiction of two prime ministers. Although I am in charge of the official department, it is difficult for me to interfere with their promotion."
"In my opinion, if Gao Langzhong wants to be promoted, he can only choose to be transferred from outside and become the governor of any place."
"External transfer..."
Li Qian rubbed the yellow-glazed porridge bowl in his hand, but still refused to give up: "Don't the six departments have a minister? This one doesn't work either?"
He Shen has almost fainted. Do you really not know, or are you just messing around?
"Your Majesty, the rank of Vice Minister is the third rank, but the rank of Gao Langzhong is only the fifth rank!"
He was about to cry but said without tears: "From the fifth rank directly to the third rank, you are still a capital official. Even an immortal cannot jump like this!"
"I see..."
Li Qian nodded: "Then another day you can give me a list of which counties you can go to, and I will think about it again."
"Yes, Your Majesty." He Shen felt as if he had been tortured and finally crawled out of prison.
I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to have such an emperor.
To say it's not good, it's actually quite good. According to this nepotistic character, as long as we can have a good relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, we can sit back and relax.
But speaking of good, it is quite bad. There may not be any major problems, but small troubles will continue. Today is an example.
Seeing that Li Qian stopped talking and was concentrating on eating, Mr. He also turned his grief and anger into appetite, and slurped up the porridge in front of him.
You can't live with anything, but you can't live with food!
Who said this porridge tastes bad? Isn’t it delicious?
After the two of them had eaten and drank enough, Li Qian put down his porridge bowl and seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Today I'm only talking about my business. I haven't asked the Heqing family yet. Is there anything you want to report when you come to the palace this time?"
"Yes, yes!"
He Shen nodded hurriedly: "I have obtained several new things in the past few days, and I have specially sent them to Your Majesty for your appreciation."
Li Qian smiled meaningfully: "You have something for me again? The Heqing family probably wants something from me, right?"
"Your Majesty, you are the king, and every minister needs help from you!"
He Shen straightened his chest and said sternly: "However, even if I want to ask for your Majesty's help, I will not bribe others to frame you. This is a crazy move and I will never do it!"
What he asked for was a small shoulder chariot. Now that his goal has been achieved, doesn't he have no more requests? This is just a tribute from a minister to the emperor, and it is natural and reasonable.
"Besides, what I bring with me are all worthless things. Your Majesty is rich all over the world, how can you be tempted by such things?"
Li Qian was amused by his words: "The Heqing family is indeed a wonderful person, so let someone send him in!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." He Shen smiled brightly.
After a while, several eunuchs in green carefully carried three large boxes from outside the palace.
"Your Majesty, please look at this. This is a piece of jasper coral taken from the bottom of the East China Sea. It is comparable to the best blood jade coral..."
He Shen's move was indeed extraordinary. These three items were all first-class treasures, which made Li Qian nod his head.
"Yes, the Heqing family has made you worry about it."
Although these things cannot be eaten or worn, they must be worth tens of thousands taels anyway, right? In addition to the last Kowloon Cup, are they going to catch up with the internal funds?
How much is the little shoulder bag given to the minister in the palace worth?
It's just a chair with two lifting poles attached to it.
But even so, He Shen was still full of beauty: "It is my greatest blessing to be able to relieve His Majesty's worries. There is nothing hard or hard."
Although the shoulder carriage is not valuable, it has a great symbolic meaning, and it is a honor to sit with adults.
"After I have finished my speech, I will not disturb Your Majesty any more." After giving the gift, he was about to say goodbye and leave.
"It's not a bother, as I said, every time I see He Qing's family I feel happy."
Li Qian also waved his hand with satisfaction: "However, I have practiced martial arts too hard these days and have difficulty moving, so I won't stay at Heqing's house much longer."
He Shen suddenly realized, no wonder His Majesty has been sitting on it, even looking at the treasure.
He knew that His Majesty the Emperor was practicing martial arts these past two days, but he did not expect that he would practice to such an extent.
"Your Majesty, the dragon body is the most important thing!"
He Shen had a serious look on his face: "I still have a few Liaodong Laoshan ginseng roots, Dipsacus ointment and other medicines at home. I will bring them to His Majesty when I get back!"
