Chapter 114 is that?

Xu Huizu's mood at this time can no longer be described as surprised, it turned out that he didn't know so much about the affairs of the imperial court, he didn't expect that Zheng He's more important purpose of going to the West was trade.

Empress Xu continued: "Although the emperor knows about Ji Gang's betrayal of officials, he can't handle him yet!" ”

"Why?" Xu Huizu didn't know what kind of mood he was feeling after asking this sentence.

"The emperor now needs a wicked person to scavenge the money for him, and when Ji Gang is very fat, it will be the time for the emperor to deal with him."

Xu Huizu hesitated a little: "But ...... But the emperor is not afraid that he will not be able to control Ji Gang when the time comes? ”

"This is the emperor's business, he has his own plans, so we don't have to worry about it!"

After a long time, Xu Huizu spoke: "This matter is over? ”

Empress Xu nodded: "That's right, forget it!" ”

Xu Huizu sighed helplessly, and then knelt down and left the palace.

When he returned to the Zhongshan Palace, his face was not very good, Ye Xing and the others saw that Xu Huizu was back, so they all hurriedly greeted him and asked, but could Xu Huizu tell them about this?

This can be regarded as the emperor's secret, if this secret is leaked out, but what will Ji Gang do.

Xu Huizu had no choice but to use other things to diverge this matter.

"I got good news when I entered the palace, Xie Jin has made a request to the emperor to let Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan go outside to practice, but they can go back to the capital to take charge."

This is indeed good news for Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan, because even if they are admitted to the Jinshi, if they want to become an official all of a sudden, they must wait, after all, there are only so many official positions in the whole world, and it is not every day that officials die or are killed for breaking the law.

Di Xiaojie said with some excitement: "I don't know which county we will be assigned to?" ”

Xu Huizu forced himself to smile and said: "I will know tomorrow, tomorrow the emperor will reward you in the palace, everything will be understood!" After Xu Huizu finished speaking, he waved his hand and went back to his room.

Ye Xing looked at this general who had fought all his life, and suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he realized that Xu Huizu was old.

People will always get old, Ye Xing comforted himself in his heart.

I wonder what kind of official position he will get?

The next day, it was an extremely lively day, Xu Huizu got up early, and then also called Di Xiaojie, Xu Ruoxuan, Ye Xing, and they all called up, chose a few clothes for them, and led them to the palace.

Ye Xing and the others entered the palace for the first time, and the size of the palace was really beyond their imagination, and that kind of golden splendor gave people not only a feeling of luxury, but also an indescribable majesty.

The street leading to the main hall was very wide, and there were many guards with knives standing on both sides, and the road was quiet, and the silence made people feel terrible.

There were many kneeling outside the main hall, and not all of them were allowed to enter the main hall.

Because Ye Xing was the champion of the new science and martial arts, all Xu Huizu led Ye Xing to the main hall, and at this time, the top three in the civil and military competitions and some important civil and military ministers were standing on both sides and waiting.

After a long time, a eunuch shouted: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

For a while, all the civil and military officials outside the main hall knelt down and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Emperor Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair, then waved his hand to all the officials, and said, "All Aiqing is flat!" ”

The eunuch shouted outside, "Flat! ”

The sound of a flat body for a while has been heard from inside the temple to outside the hall.

After the civil and military officials got up, Emperor Zhu Di said to everyone: "Today's early dynasty can be said to be the most spectacular early dynasty in history, and today's place will be the pillars of my Ming Dynasty, you are the hope of my Ming Dynasty, so today, I just want to say to you, you rely on your own Wen Tao martial arts, to gain fame, but you must have a heart of benevolence, to have a heart loyal to the court, everything you do is related to your future, but also related to the future of the Ming Dynasty." ”

After Zhu Di said this, all the civil and military officials shouted loudly: "I will die for the emperor, swear to die for the Ming Dynasty, and swear to die for the people!" ”

But after listening to it, Zhu Di shook his head again and again: "As the old saying goes, water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat, and we, the court officials, are like boats, and the people are water, so I hope you will always think about the people, and then consider whether I am happy." ”

Ye Xing heard Zhu Di say this below, and thought that it was not accidental that Zhu Di could enjoy such high achievements in history, because if a person became an emperor and had such a high status, he could still think of the safety of the people, which was really a gratifying thing.

If a person is in a high position, he wants to enjoy it, but if the emperor also wants to enjoy it, then the people underground can only suffer.

After the emperor said this, there was only silence left in the court, and they were all thinking about the emperor's words and the deep meaning of this sentence.

But if you keep quiet, it's not a way, so at this time, Ji Gang hurriedly came out and said: "The emperor's words can be used as good words, and can become the motto of my Ming officials, we will do our best to seek the well-being of the people!" ”

Emperor Zhu Di nodded and smiled appreciatively.

Ye Xing raised his head slightly and glanced at Ji Gang's ugly face, and secretly cursed in his heart, it turned out that Zhu Di was also a person who liked to listen to people's whiskers and horses.

At this time, the emperor asked a eunuch to come up with a list, and then said to everyone: "You are all Jinshi of the new department, so some people have to make arrangements, and some have to go outside to practice. ”

After the emperor Zhu Di finished speaking, he asked the eunuch to read it on the top, and the eunuch first said a few words of congratulations, and then began to read, and after he finished saying that some people would go there to be officials in the future, he stood on both sides again.

But after the eunuch finished reading, Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan, as well as Ye Xinghe and a few people from Yijia, did not read it, which made several of them a little puzzled.

At this time, the emperor said with a smile: "In this imperial examination, in addition to the three first-class scholars, there are also two who are also good, they are not only good in literature, but also have a great vision for the construction of the country, they are Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan." ”

After the emperor said this, he said a few words in the ear of a eunuch, and the eunuch then shouted loudly: "Spread Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan into the palace!" ”

After Di Xiaojie and Xu Ruoxuan heard the shout, they hurriedly ran into the hall from behind, and then knelt down without raising their heads.
