Twin Brocade

Chapter 337
The first-class Jinshi in every subject will almost all enter the Hanlin Academy.And almost all the high officials and important ministers in the court came from the Imperial Academy.Since Emperor Qinglong punished the five Jinshi to compile books, it was impossible for Quan Moxian to ignore them.

No matter how much he appreciates this person, he can't favor one person over another.Otherwise, for Quan Moxian, it is not appreciation, but putting him, a poor boy with no roots, on the fire.

Guan Jinghuan didn't seem to care, but he listened attentively to Emperor Qinglong's next words.How will Quan Moxian be punished, so that he can move on to the next move.

Be sure to press down this thorn, so that he can't get out for the rest of his life.

Only hearing Emperor Qinglong's voice echoing in the hall, he said: "It's not easy to study hard in your cold window, I allow you to keep your fame and deprive you of the qualification to enter the Imperial Academy."

Have!Guan Jinghuan was overjoyed.Unable to enter the Hanlin Academy, even if Quan Moxian keeps the number one scholar, it is useless.

After a pause, Emperor Qinglong continued: "You can go to any one of the six departments and make up for it, so as to see the effect."

Bu Que's grade is not high, so he has to start from the seventh rank.Compared with the No. [-] scholar, the grade of this award is indeed a bit lower, but it is really lacking in six departments.

Guan Jinghuan's brows frowned slightly, Quan Moxian got a real deficiency, but it was not the result he wanted.But at this time, Emperor Qinglong Jinkou made a final decision on this matter, and it was too late for him to take any further action.

The emperor is already displeased, he'd better be more cautious.If there is a real shortage, there is a real shortage. To clean up a small official from the seventh rank, he has many ways.

After Quan Moxian took the thank you order, the banquet continued.

Between cups and cups, the sound of silk and bamboo gradually rose, and the atmosphere became warm again.It was as if the unhappiness just now had never happened.The Xinke Scholars who haven't learned how to hide their thoughts still have lingering fears on their faces.

In just two quarters of an hour's effort, the fate of several people's lives was decided.It can be said that their official careers have come to an abrupt end, and there is no hope in sight.

This is the first time they have experienced the power of imperial power, and they are terrified.

And those old ministers who have been through the years are talking with each other enthusiastically.Only the flashes of light in their eyes from time to time can see their inner considerations and plans for this matter.

During this Qionglin banquet, the host and guest were all happy.

The night came quietly.No matter how lively the banquet was, it was time to end.Emperor Qinglong left the table first, and the rest of the people left the hall one by one.

The Jinshi walked at the back, and an unremarkable little eunuch was waiting at the side. He cupped his hands to Quan Moxian on the side of the road and said, "Quan Zhuangyuan, please follow me. The emperor's reward has been prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I have to trouble you." You go and get it yourself."

Quan Moxian paused, slightly astonished.

The three first-class Jinshi all have different degrees of rewards, which have been announced at the Qionglin Banquet.Rewards in the palace symbolize glory, and are always delivered home by the eunuchs in the palace the next day.It's never been like this before, you have to go and get it yourself.

Could it be that it was because the emperor was displeased in the palace just now that even these palace people came up to step on him?I just don't know who is behind this.

Glancing at Peng Changsheng who was waiting for him not far away, Quan Moxian said to the little eunuch: "Please wait a moment, father-in-law. I'll go and explain to my friend so that he won't have to wait for me."

This was his first time entering the palace, and the little eunuch was also very nervous.The water in the palace was deep, so he had to guard against it.If something really happened, there would be a personal certificate in the future.

The little eunuch agreed and stood there waiting for him.

After explaining a few words to Peng Changsheng, Quan Moxian followed the little eunuch, turned around a few corridors, and came to a clean side hall.Wu Guangqi was coming out from the inside, saw him and said: "Zhuangyuan Lang, the emperor is waiting for you."

Quan Moxian was startled, it turned out that the emperor wanted to see him?
What is this for?He suddenly became nervous, is it because of what Wan Chunhui said at the banquet that the emperor wants to blame him?
As he walked in, he went over the previous events in his mind and guessed the reason.It's just that Emperor Qinglong didn't act according to common sense, the more he pondered, the more he couldn't figure out the meaning of the current emperor, the more disturbed he was, and his nerves tensed up.

After entering the side hall, Emperor Qinglong raised his head from behind the desk, looked at him for a long while with indiscriminate expressions of joy and anger, and asked, "Do you know why I asked you here?"

Quan Moxian saw the ceremony, and replied: "Responding to the emperor's words, the emperor's thoughts, I dare not speculate on my own."

"Don't you dare?" Emperor Qinglong said, "In terms of daring and recklessness, you are at the forefront. Don't dare to speculate, can you make such a strategy?"

Quan Moxian lowered his head even lower, and said in a respectful voice: "The system of hundreds of officials is inherited from the previous dynasty, and there are many old things. The position of prime minister is one person under ten thousand, and the power is concentrated in the hands of one person. Thin egg."

"I believe that the monarchy is granted by heaven. Only when the monarchy is consolidated can we be able to command and order all directions."

After finishing these words, Emperor Qinglong nodded slightly.Faced with the pressure of being called up suddenly, he can quickly calm down and talk freely, and his knowledge is real.

"What's going on in your family?" Emperor Qinglong asked.He can know these things with just one command, but at this time he wants to hear his own statement first.

Quan Moxian smiled wryly and said: "If you go back to the emperor, what Wan Jinshi said is not unreasonable." At that moment, he briefly stated his childhood experience without exaggerating, and said: "I have no choice but to sell it. It’s just that it was the inheritance left by my father, and a lot of it has been embezzled by the clan, not the clan property.”

"My late father once saved the life of Marquis Cheng'en, but there was no one in the capital. I had the audacity to take out the token and asked it to Marquis Cheng's mansion." Given the opportunity to explain in person in front of the imperial court, Quan Moxian Bring it all out.

His future, honor, disgrace and political ambitions are all tied to the emperor.Others can misunderstand and slander, and he can't explain it clearly, but in front of Emperor Qinglong, he must speak clearly.

Emperor Qinglong was about to speak, when the curtain behind him moved, and a young girl with bright eyes and bright teeth came out.First she saluted Emperor Qinglong gracefully, stuck out her tongue and said, "Father, Man'er brought you supper. Hearing such things, I really feel sorry for the champion."

Judging by her title, she should be a princess without a doubt.Seeing that his head was lowered even further, Quan Moxian didn't dare to look around at all.

Seeing someone coming out from behind, Emperor Qinglong was displeased at first, but when he found out it was her, his expression softened and he said, "Why did Baochang come here at this point?"

In the palace, probably only Princess Baochang, whose boudoir name is Wei Yaoman, dared to be so presumptuous in front of Emperor Qinglong.She is the youngest daughter of the abandoned crown princess, and also the youngest sister of the crown prince and King Ruyang.

Emperor Qinglong never forgot about the abolished concubine Jiang Shi, and all the feelings of guilt were compensated by the three children she left behind.
