A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

There were people around the emperor, many people.

The closest one is probably Waiting Zhao, followed by Zhizhao Zhao.

Most of the people who know and make imperial edicts are responsible for literary masters, while those who wait for imperial edicts are close ministers around the emperor.

As long as you win the favor of the emperor, promotion and wealth will naturally be a trivial matter, and you will definitely have a place in the political hall in the future.

Therefore, this position has attracted a lot of attention and is even more coveted.

Zhizhi Gaofanzhen stood in front of the hall and watched the two young men being led over one after the other.

"I've seen Fan Waizhi."

Fan Zhen nodded and looked at the two young men. The one on the left looked about twenty-seven, and could be called a young man in the court. But the one on the right...

"Shen An, a humble citizen, has seen Fan Waizhi."

Shen An crossed his hands and saluted very seriously.

The 'young man' next to him also crossed his hands and said, "Xiao Qing has seen Fan Waizhi."

The person who lives in the house is responsible for Zhi Zhi Gao, also known as external system.

"Follow me."

Fan Zhen turned around and went in, followed by Shen An and Xiao Qing.

When they arrived at the palace, several prime ministers and assistants were there.

After saluting, Wen Yanbo introduced: "Your Majesty, Xiao Qingnai is a professor in the palace of Huayuan County. Shen An is..."

He glanced at Shen An and felt a little tight in his chest, and said, "Shen An is the son of Shen Bian, the former magistrate of Xiongzhou."

He thought it would be difficult for him to interact with Shen An again in his life, but he didn't expect to meet again so soon.

Moreover, Shen An unexpectedly rose to the rank of waiting for imperial edict and became a popular minister around the emperor. It seems that they did it themselves.

Without them forcing the emperor to prepare his 'future affairs', the emperor would not have brought Shen An into the palace as a prank to disgust them.

It is difficult to handle objections, because this is the candidate given by the county prince's palace. If it is rejected, it means that the emperor is not sincere, and the matter will become a big deal.

Moreover, Shen An is still the orphan of an official. If he rejects it, he will inevitably be judged as "unkind and unjust" in the future.

Cherish your feathers!

The key is that Wen Yanbo and others felt that this was just an expedient measure by the emperor, and they would naturally send these two people home after a few years. And what can a young man like Shen An do?

Just a kid with a yellow mouth!

Thinking of this, Wen Yanbo secretly glanced at Shen An.

Shen An was very quiet.

And Xiao Qing is already giving his inaugural speech.

No, it's poetry.

Zhao Zhen asked them what their specialties were, and Xiao Qing humbly said that he just read more books, and then Zhao Zhen asked him to write poems.

Shen An listened honestly to Xiao Qing's performance in taking office, and then it was his turn.

"Your Majesty, I am a humble citizen... I am stupid and can't do it!"

puff!

He said this very seriously, and Han Qi beside him couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Zhen shook his head slightly at the censor, indicating that there was no need to worry about Han Qi's misconduct, and then said to Shen An: "You have written two poems, one is impassioned, and the other praises plum blossoms. Why do you say no?"

The lie was exposed by the emperor on the spot, but Shen An said seriously: "Your Majesty, I suppress my poetry when I write it. I can suppress it with others, but I am not very respectful with your Majesty."

"..."

This guy actually compared writing poetry to going to the toilet to poop?

The faces of several prime ministers and assistants were twitching, and even the censor was holding back laughter.

"That's all."

Zhao Zhen also felt that this metaphor was indecent, so he said: "You two are recommended by the two princes' palaces. You must work well. In this way, you will come to court once every three days."

This is a good arrangement. Shen An is secretly happy, but Xiao Qing is a little disappointed.

Then the two stood on the edge, and they stood together.

Zhao Zhen and the ministers discussed state affairs, and the two of them just watched and listened to the affairs.

While listening, Shen An lowered his head and whispered: "You are eager to show off as soon as you come. Prince Huayuan is really ambitious!"

Xiao Qing became angry when he heard this, but as soon as he was angry, he remembered that he was indeed a little anxious just now.

Will the officials think that Prince Huayuan has a premeditated plan?

When it is the first time to serve under the emperor, no matter how deep the city is, people will be nervous, not to mention thinking that they have made a big mistake...

Xiao Qing prides himself on being knowledgeable, but he is sluggish.

He secretly glanced at the emperor and saw that the emperor was just discussing matters with the ministers, nothing unusual, and he couldn't help but feel furious.

The officials are so benevolent, how can they blame the ministers for this?

I was tricked by Shen An!

He remembered Zhao Yunliang's warning before: Shen An looks very honest, but at heart he is cunning and shameless. You should be careful.

He didn't believe it at first, thinking what ability could a young man have? It's just cunning at best.

You underestimated the enemy!

He was secretly jealous, but he didn't notice that Zhao Zhen suddenly glanced at the two of them.

Shen An lowered his head slightly, as if listening. But Xiao Qing's face had more expressions, and he looked like he was in a state of wandering mind.

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly, feeling that Xiao Qing was a little arrogant.

The first impression between people is the most important. Once an opinion is fixed, it will be difficult to shake it in the future.

Later, when the discussion was over, Zhao Zhen asked: "What is noble in a country?"

This question can probably be used as a policy question in the imperial examination, so the ministers and ministers are watching the performance of these two people.

Xiao Qing made up his mind to strike first, so he kept silent.

So Shen An was the focus of attention, and he said with an innocent face: "I am young, how dare you take the lead."

I……

Xiao Qing was furious, but the reason was impeccable.

He could only say: "The most noble person in a country is the emperor..."

"Flattery!"

The voice was very small, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net but Xiao Qing heard it clearly.

"Minister...the emperor determines the prime minister and assistants, determines the general strategy, and outlines the leadership..."

After Xiao Qing's words, even the prime ministers and assistants nodded secretly.

These days you can say that the people are the most important, but that is just a slogan. If you usually say this, others will only think you are a rotten scholar.

After Xiao Qing finished speaking, he retreated calmly, and then said to Shen An with a smile: "Shen Daizhao... is only fourteen years old."

He then said to Zhao Zhen: "Your Majesty, please let it go..."

This was an interview question, and Xiao Qing did it, and he did it very well. Incidentally, he felt pity for Shen An because he was young and didn't understand this, so he interceded for him.

This persona is full immediately.

Shen An, do you want to trick me?

Now you are in deep trouble yourself.

Wen Yanbo nodded slightly and said with a smile: "That's quite appropriate. Let's give it a few years."

——Shen An is just a young boy. How can he solve such a big problem in a few years?

Zhao Zhen looked at Shen An, nodded slowly, and then prepared to let the ministers disperse...

"His Majesty……"

Shen An suddenly walked out and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, I am stupid, but when I was in Xiongzhou, I heard some people talking about it, and I want to offer it to Your Majesty."

Well!

Zhao Zhen was ready to break up and go back to the harem to continue working hard to have children. Hearing this, he suppressed his mood and said with a smile: "Just tell me."

Xiao Qing, Wen Yanbo and others did not expect that Shen An would dare to take on such a big topic, and they couldn't help but smile.

Everyone is waiting for you to make a fool of yourself. The melon seed bench is ready, so hurry up.

As for the pretense of the people of Xiongzhou, no one present believed it.
