Chapter 437: Cabinet Grand Secretary
Everyone thought of something instantly and was extremely shocked, and the Emperor Ming stood up directly with excitement in his eyes.
In a moment, a white figure rushed to the court and shouted excitedly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, another golden dragon opened its eyes on the Panlong Pillar!"
The golden dragon opened its eyes, and the country's fortune prospered!
This is a well-known fact, but why did another one appear so quickly when a golden dragon opened its eyes not long ago?
Everyone couldn't help but think in the direction of the imperial examination system.
After all, this sudden change only appeared after Your Majesty promulgated the imperial examination system.
Could the imperial examination system really revitalize Daqian?
"Hahaha, good!" The Emperor Ming in front of the dragon throne was very happy.
At the beginning, there were only four golden dragons opening their eyes. Although no one dared to say it openly, the Emperor Ming knew that someone must be thinking that it was his poor governance that caused the country's fortune to decline.
But what about now?
Under his governance, two more golden dragons opened their eyes!
The Emperor Ming was full of vigor and asked the officials below the stage: "Now, who else wants to oppose my implementation of the imperial examination system?"
The imperial examination system did not have much impact on the selection of military generals, and there were few soldiers who opposed it. Naturally, they just watched from the sidelines and did not participate in this matter.
The civil servants, whose interests were most involved, dared not continue to raise objections after seeing Jin Long open his eyes. They could only look at each other and reluctantly said respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise, and we have no objection."
"In this case, according to what I said before, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel will implement it immediately. On this day next year, I want to see some different faces in this court!"
"I will obey your majesty's order." The people from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites responded in unison.
"Adjourn the court!"
The Emperor Ming returned to the imperial study, and his joy was still clearly visible.
Eunuch Li had not seen such a Majesty for a long time.
While reviewing the memorials, the Emperor Ming asked: "What official title does the Qin family have now?"
Your Majesty is going to upgrade the title of the Qin family again. Eunuch Li was surprised.
But think about it, the imperial examination system was proposed by Qin Feng, the eldest son of the Qin family, and as soon as His Majesty implemented it in the court today, the golden dragon opened its eyes.
In other words, Qin Feng has made great contributions, and it is reasonable to give him rewards and promotions.
This Qin Jianan really benefited from his son.
"Reporting to His Majesty, the current head of the Qin family, Qin Jianan, is a third-class general."
"Well, then give him a promotion. As for the reward for Qin Feng, I have to think about it carefully."
Eunuch Li asked: "Such a talent, Your Majesty, didn't you think of recruiting him? When he invented gunpowder, Your Majesty planned to include him in the Ministry of Households."
The Emperor thought for a moment, and he thought of Qin Feng fighting against several people from the Imperial College outside the Haowen Academy yesterday, and he was not at a disadvantage.
He thought of the poor scholars of Taiping Academy, who are also the future of Daqian.
"If such an interesting person as the Qin family boy enters the court at this age, I'm afraid his spiritual energy will be wiped out by the officialdom.
Although I can't give him an official position, I can always give him a protective identity.
After all, I heard that there are always people who are secretly tripping him up."
As a monarch, how could he not know who is the real driving force behind this academic dispute?
He put down the memorial in his hand and said expressionlessly: "Tang Hongyun, the Minister of War, was impeached by someone before, saying that he accepted bribes privately and exploited the people's fat and blood. Send the three departments to investigate.
And the third prince has been quite slack recently. Let him go to the academy and be confined for a month to reflect on himself."
"Yes, sir."
After the academic dispute, Qin Feng's life returned to normal.
During this period, he wanted to wake up Senior Xuan Yi in the Sea of Gods and ask how to absorb the Hongmeng Immortal Qi to enter the fourth level.
After all, the Hongmeng Immortal Qi only existed in ancient times.
The current Wenshengdao practitioners basically enter the fourth rank by absorbing the spiritual energy of the same origin as the righteousness, so even if Qin Feng consults Senior Brother Yang and others, there is no reference value.
As for the Tianjian National Master, although the two are in the name of master and apprentice, to be honest, this master-apprentice relationship is a bit strange.
Moreover, in Qin Feng's mind, the only teacher he has always recognized is the cheap master in Jinyang City
But the strange thing is that Senior Xuan clearly said that it can be awakened as long as the light bead on the heart-asking platform is used.
However, in the past few days, no matter how Qin Feng tried, he could not get any response from Senior Xuan.
In desperation, the intention to absorb the primordial immortal energy could only be put aside.
Of course, Qin Feng was not idle either. He had been using the primordial immortal energy to temper the righteousness in his body during this period.
And he who entered the fifth rank Haoran realm, the speed of tempering was far from what he had before, but in just a few days, he had finished tempering the thunder righteousness in the sea of gods, and the purple righteousness became more and more condensed.
Another five days passed, and a piece of news caused a huge uproar in Fengtian City, that is, the promulgation of the imperial examination system!
All the people could not believe the content of the notice board. Poor students could actually enter the court through studying and change their fate?
The people who learned the news were excited and ran to tell each other.
This result was within Qin Feng's expectations. After all, he accepted the academic dispute because he vaguely saw the scene of the promulgation of the imperial examination system in his dream.
With his knowledge, it is not difficult to guess that there is a certain inevitable connection between the two.
However, the notice board also clearly stated that although the imperial examination system was promulgated, it would not be implemented immediately, but would be put on hold for half a year.
Qin Feng understood that this was because the Emperor Ming had considered that poor students lacked too much foundation compared to the powerful, even if the imperial examination system was implemented immediately.
Poor students did not have much competitiveness against those students from the Imperial Academy.
This half year was equivalent to a buffer, and also an opportunity for poor scholars.
One morning, the Qin family was still having breakfast in the lobby.
Outside the Qin Mansion, the familiar sound of the imperial edict came again.
Everyone in the Qin family naturally did not dare to neglect it, and hurried to the outside of the mansion to receive the edict.
Qin Feng saw that the person who read the imperial edict was the eunuch Li, the chief steward of the palace. When the latter saw him, he smiled and nodded, and then began to read the imperial edict.
The imperial edict contained a lot of content. In addition to the reward of gold, silver, grain and cloth, there was also the promotion of Qin's father's official rank.
When everyone heard about this, they were all shocked beyond words.
It had only been a short time, and the official rank of the head of the Qin family had been promoted again and again, and now he was already a second-class general!
The promotion of the title naturally means the promotion of the status of the Qin family.
But what's interesting is that the reason given in the imperial edict is confusing.
Everyone extracted the core meaning and summarized it in four words - good parenting?
What kind of reason is this?
Qin Feng knew it very well. The reason for all this must be that the imperial examination system he proposed was appreciated by the Emperor Ming.
He thought that the Emperor Ming gave gold, silver, grain and cloth to promote his father's title, and the matter was over.
But he never expected that he would also be awarded an identity.
"Cabinet Grand Secretary?" Qin Feng was confused.
