Planting a fairy in ancient times

Chapter 438 464. Household Minister
"Everyone is flat, waiting outside the palace to be appointed." Xuanyuan Chaoyang raised his hand and said after waiting for Jinshi to kneel three times and kowtow nine times.

"Thank you, my emperor." After Chen Qingzhu thanked him, he led all the Jinshi out of the hall.

Li Huaiji opened the imperial decree and read it loudly: "...Chen Qingzhu, the number one scholar in the new department, is given the title of servant of the household department. He is granted a three-month holiday and allowed to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors. Wen Siyuan, who is second in the list, is the editor of the Imperial Academy. Xiu, he will take office immediately, Tanhua Zhou Wenchang will be a good scholar, and he will enter Hanlin immediately..."

Cui Shi'an didn't listen carefully to the gorgeous opening chapter with a bunch of rhetoric.

Cui Shi'an was surprised when he heard that Chen Qingzhu was appointed as the servant of the household department.

The assignment of duties among Jinshi was decided by Xuanyuan Chaoyang after he called Cui Shian into the palace yesterday.

These more than 100 Jinshi are all Beijing officials.

There is no way, there is a severe shortage of people in Liubu.

The reason why Xuanyuan Chaoyang hastily opened Enke is to select more talents to fill the six parts and make the six parts work well.

Cui Shi'an had met Chen Qingzhu a long time ago, and knew that Chen Qingzhu had worked as Xuanyuan Chaoyang's staff before.If it weren't for Chen Qingzhu's "imperial exam dream", Xuanyuan Chaoyang would have given Chen Qingzhu an official.

Yesterday, Xuanyuan Chaoyang also said that he wanted to make Chen Qingzhu the servant of the household department.

Cui Shian raised objections.

It's not that Chen Qingzhu's talent is not enough, but that the Xuanyuan Dynasty has always had an unwritten rule of 'the ugly are not officials'.

Cui Shi'an said that Chen Qingzhu's appearance was too ugly to be an official.It would be better for Chen Qingzhu to be the number one scholar and continue to be a counselor by Xuanyuan Chaoyang's side.

At that time, Xuanyuan Chaoyang didn't make a sound.

Cui Shi'an thought that Xuanyuan Chaoyang's opinion had adopted his own.

But now, Xuanyuan Chaoyang is still determined to go his own way, and has made Chen Qingzhu the servant of the household department.

What does this mean?
It shows that the Chen Qingzhu slip is in the emperor's heart!
It shows that Xuanyuan Chaoyang attaches more importance to Chen Qingzhu than Cui Shian.

Cui Shi'an felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that the status of himself as the Prime Minister of a country in the emperor's heart was not as good as that of Xuanyuan Chaoyang's aides.

However, Cui Shian is Cui Shian after all.

Even if he was unhappy in his heart, Cui Shi'an didn't show it at all, he just stood there with his eyes on his nose, his nose, his nose and his heart, and tried his best to listen to the words that Li Huaiji read.

Many ministers did not have Cui Shi'an's energy-raising skills, and they couldn't help but look at each other when they heard that among the Xinke Scholars, they were actually assigned to a fifth-rank servant.

What is the origin of this Chen Qingzhu?
Since the founding of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, there has never been a precedent for a new scholar to be directly awarded a fifth-rank official.

Which Jinshi didn't have to be an official for ten or eight years before he could get to the fifth rank?

Not only did Chen Qingzhu become the minister of the fifth-rank household department as soon as he became an official, the emperor also specially granted Chen Qingzhu a three-month leave, allowing him to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors.

What a great honor this is!

If it weren't for the hall, the ministers would have already discussed it.

Li Huaiji's "quiet" before is still very useful,
A few itchy ministers can control their mouths as long as they think of Li Huaiji's fierceness.

When Emperor Tianjing was alive, Li Huaiji would beat anyone who dared to make noise in the hall.

Few people can escape Li Huaiji's slap.

A slap, although it doesn't hurt very much, but the person being beaten is a bit too embarrassing.

"Thank you, Lord Long En!" Chen Qingzhu led all Jinshi to kneel down to thank Li Huaiji after hearing Li Huaiji finished reading the words "Qin this".

"Hahaha... My heart is so relieved! With the help of your talents, I will be able to calm down the world as soon as possible, and return the people to a peaceful and prosperous world." Xuanyuan Chaoyang said cheerfully.

Chen Qingzhu and others said "I dare not" and "Thank you Your Majesty for your love".

The monarch and his subjects enjoyed themselves happily.

At this time, Zhou Huaili, Minister of the Ministry of officials, couldn't help but come out.

"Your Majesty, I have a play!" Zhou Huaili said loudly, holding the wat board in his hand.

Xuanyuan Chaoyang frowned.

Zhou Huaili is a bit pedantic, Xuanyuan Chaoyang suspects that Zhou Huaili's words are here to tear down the stage.

However, as a benevolent (Xuanyuan Chaoyang self-proclaimed) emperor, Xuanyuan Chaoyang had to stop Zhou Huaili from speaking.

"What's the matter?" Xuanyuan Chaoyang asked lightly.

"I feel that it is inappropriate for Chen Qingzhu, the number one scholar in the new department, to be the servant of the household department. We have always selected officials in our court, and we will not use people with disabilities. Chen Qingzhu's ugly appearance is detrimental to the court's face."

Zhou Huaili heard the displeasure in Xuanyuan Chaoyang's tone, and said boldly.

According to the unwritten rules of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, the first-class Jinshi of each subject would go to the Imperial Academy for three years of experience before being awarded an official. There are even rumors that "non-Hanlin is not a chancellor".

"Oh? From Zhou Qing's point of view, who should be the household servant?" Xuanyuan Chaoyang narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Veteran dare not speak in vain, this world belongs to the emperor, the emperor has his own discretion on who to choose as the servant of the household department." Zhou Huaili bowed and said.

The anger on Xuanyuan Chaoyang's face subsided a little.

In Xuanyuan Chaoyang's questioning just now, he dug a hole for Zhou Huaili.As long as Zhou Huaili recommends someone to be the servant of the household department, Xuanyuan Chaoyang will definitely remove Zhou Huaili from the position of minister.

Fortunately, although Zhou Huaili is pedantic, he is not arrogant.

"I have made up my mind. Chen Qingzhu is my household servant who has been chosen out of thousands of people. Retire!" Xuanyuan Chaoyang stood up and left with a flick of his sleeves.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I still have something to say." Zhou Huaili called out to Xuanyuan Chaoyang's back.

Seeing that Xuanyuan Chaoyang didn't stop at his feet, Li Huaiji shouted at the top of his voice, "Back to court~!"

"Send off to the emperor." The ministers knelt down on the floor.

Zhou Huaili also knelt down.

When Xuanyuan Chaoyang's figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, Zhou Huaili stood up and rushed towards Cui Shi'an who was not far away.

"Cui Xiang, you are the prime minister, you have the right to advise, Chen Qingzhu is ugly, really not suitable for an official!" Zhou Huaili said, pulling Cui Shi'an's sleeve.

"Zhou Shangshu, the emperor has his own reasons for doing this. You should do your own thing well and don't worry about it." Cui Shi'an patted Zhou Huaili's shoulder and advised him.

"But...but, hasn't it always been like this? The appointment of officials by the court represents the face of the court! Why can't the emperor listen to it?" Zhou Huaili muttered.

"Zhou Shangshu, don't think so much, do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. The emperor loves talents, so he will send Chen Qingzhu as the servant of the household department. After three months, if Chen Qingzhu can't do things well, you don't need to persuade him, the emperor will let him go." An official." Cui Shi'an patted Zhou Huaili's shoulder, and comforted him.

"That's right, that's right, it's Cui Xiang who is thoughtful. Being an official is not just writing. Although Chen Qingzhu's writing is good, he may not be an official!" Zhou Huaili nodded fiercely.

Cui Shian smiled, but remained silent.

Wouldn't Chen Qingzhu, who could help Xuanyuan Chaoyang win the throne successfully, become an official?
Zhou Huaili is so naive despite his age.
