It's time for a showdown, all the powerful officials in Beijing are my students!

Liu Boxing had nothing to compete with. After he returned to Beijing, Kong Xun arranged for him to be assigned to the Kyoto City Defense Camp and became a general there.

Now the entire capital's defense forces are in his hands.

After this turmoil in the palace, Kong Xun found it hard to believe those original guards, so he promoted Chen Qibao to be the commander of the imperial guards around him.

His current rank is not as high as others, but if he can stay with the emperor, even those high-ranking ministers will not dare to offend him easily.

Chen Qibao does not need to participate in the competition to get a better future for himself.

This time when Kong Xun ascended the throne, even some people he had worked with for a short period of time, such as Feng Yujue and Liu Huai, were placed in positions suitable for them, and these people have now become his confidants.

An Xin saw that these older students and disciples had planned a way out for him in the future. He looked at the wet and expectant looks from a few of the younger ones and said in a serious voice:
"I'm going to take the exam this year. You haven't learned kung fu since you were young and you can't hold a military position. If you want to pursue an official career, you must first take the exam."

Feng Yuxiu, Shan Yongzhen, and Chi Lan looked at a group of brilliant seniors, their envious eyes greatly satisfying the vanity of superficial seniors like Jiang Zhou and An Rui.

The folding fan in Jiang Zhou's hand opened with a snap, "Don't be obsessed with senior brother, senior brother is just a legend."

Chen Qibao raised his chin and said arrogantly, "If you want to become a successful person like us, you must follow the footsteps of our senior brothers."

An Rui relied on Kong Xun, a new boss, to pick up an Imperial College sacrificial wine Dangdang, pretending to be a good teacher, and said, "As long as you study hard, you can be as powerful as us in the future."

"Yeah," Liu Boxing said, "As long as Xiaoshan is here, you can become a high official if you pass the exam."

"You have a high position and can be a high official!!" An Xin narrowed her eyes dangerously and glanced at a few people. She held her forehead because she had a headache.

Then, gritting his teeth, Zhu Shijing said to Li Ziyu and Leng Xiangbai: "If you two are free, you can fill your mind with these pieces of information that are floating around.

I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, they will float into the sky and become immortals. "

"Yes." Li Ziyu and the others smiled and raised their lips as they answered.

Jiang Zhou reacted and glared at An Xin, "Are you calling us short-minded?!"

After being reminded, several others also looked at An Xin aggrievedly.

A few little ones covered their mouths and snickered.

Jiang Zhou and Chen Qibao glanced at them from the corner of their eyes. The smiles on the three little faces froze and they quickly calmed down their expressions. They didn't want to be tortured into dogs by the senior brothers later.

However, Jiang Zhou and the others, who were very vindictive, called them to the study room in the name of helping the three of them get into the exam early and make up for their studies.

In the next period of time, Jiangzhou Anrui, Liu Boxing, Chen Qibao and others were taught by Li Ziyu and Leng Xiangbai Zhu Shijiao.

And the few people who were tortured turned around and tortured Feng Yuxiu, Shan Yongzhen, and Chi Lan again and again.

The three little ones made rapid progress in their knowledge during the days of continuous suffering. In the next imperial examination, they passed all the tests and were admitted as scholars.

Several people can be considered as officially stepping into the imperial examination threshold.

One emperor, one courtier.

What's more, Kong Xun heard Emperor Sheng'an say before his death that brother Li Ziyu and some other loyal royal officials were the ministers he trained for him after he ascended the throne.

Li Ziyu was the person who was trained to take over the position of Prime Minister Xiao when Emperor Sheng'an was still alive. He once served in the Six Ministries, and in the following years he was allowed to work as a governor in the local area for training.

He is a strong contender for the position of prime minister this time.In the subsequent competitive recruitment.

The other brothers have successfully landed in the positions they want through their own efforts and means.

Only the position of prime minister and assistant, the head of a hundred officials, is very competitive.

The officials vying for the position of prime minister are either those with senior qualifications or those with strong backgrounds, and there are also candidates like Li Ziyu who have been trained by the emperor and have outstanding abilities.

These people are not like officials competing for other positions. They only create obstacles for their competitors in the competition. Few of them would want the other's life.

When Li Ziyu entered the competition for the position of prime minister, the ministers began to look down upon him, thinking that he was too inexperienced and did not know how powerful he was.

However, in the days that followed, these officials who competed for the position of prime minister received matters assigned to them by Kong Xun.

The pedantic and old-fashioned ideas displayed by those veterans were in sharp contrast to Li Ziyu's clean and decisive handling methods.

The young king does not like to procrastinate, grind, and rely on ministers who have been serving as officials for many years in front of him.

In the competition for the position of prime minister, only Li Ziyu, Mr. Gao, who once provoked An Xin in the hall, and Mr. Taiwei were left.

After Zhu Shijing took office as Minister of Household Affairs.

With real power in the household department, I have more access to the affairs of the household department.

After this turmoil in the imperial court and several waves of misappropriation by those in power, the Ministry of Household Affairs actually did not have much money left.

At this time, Hu Shangshu, who was sitting in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Finance, probably because he was old and lacked the fighting spirit, handed over most of the affairs of the Ministry of Finance to several ministers below.

When Zhu Shijing was sorting out all kinds of money coming in and out of the Household Department, he found that there were many powerful families in Daqian over the years who had borrowed money from the Household Department for various reasons.

He reported this matter to his boss, Hu Shangshu, who squinted his wrinkled old eyes as if he was asleep and didn't hear.

Zhu Shijing is such a shrewd person. He knew at a glance that the Master did not want to deal with this bad thing.

So one morning at court, Zhu Shijing reported this matter to Kong Xun, the new emperor.

Kong Xun looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance who was looking down and pretending to be confused. He knew very well that this old guy, because he didn't want to offend the powerful families in the capital, would rather pretend to be dead than go collect the debt.

In his position, he did not pursue political affairs, and he did not want to do anything with the salary from the court. Kong Xun really wanted to beat him to the end and go home to eat his own food.

However, when he looked at Zhu Shijing, who had recently become the Minister of Household Affairs, Kong Xun swallowed his words again. At this time, his thoughts were surprisingly similar to those of the deceased Emperor Sheng'an.

Just let the old guy Hu Shangshu occupy his position for the capable people for the time being.

When Zhu Shijing established a firm foothold in the Ministry of Revenue, he then pulled down Hu Shangshu, who was standing in the pit and not taking a shit. The Shangshu of the Ministry of Hunan managed the national finance. The position was so important that it was natural for the capable people to occupy it.

Kong Xun: "My dear friends, do you have anything to say about the emptiness of the national treasury and the fact that some people have borrowed money from the Ministry of Household Affairs and have not yet paid it back?"

In such a matter of who is in the spotlight and who is causing trouble, these officials below, who are considered to be veterans in the officialdom, will certainly not put forward their opinions rashly.

If we talk about repaying debts, those powerful and aristocratic families should repay the money from the national treasury. This is not to bring hatred to themselves. They are not stupid, and of course they will not come over and say such things.
