"Shen Yan, I was worried that you would not be able to withstand some external temptations when you were young, but your performance really exceeded my expectations, and I felt very pleased. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xia Qi looked at Shen Yan, who was still a little immature on his face, and a touch of emotion appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen can have this performance, it is all the emperor's teaching." As the saying goes, thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, so Shen Yan heard the emperor's emotional words, a trace of honesty appeared on his handsome face, met the emperor's gaze, and said loudly.

"Stop, I've never taught you, you don't have to pat my ass." Xia Qi heard Shen Yan's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is shooting a dragon's fart, not a horse's fart." Shen Yan deliberately pretended to be indifferent, and said in a gag.

"Shen Yan, if you can be so attentive to me, I will definitely not treat you badly." Xia Qi didn't show a smile at all because of Shen Yan's gags, on the contrary, a touch of seriousness and formality flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Shen Yan indifferently.

"You are still young now, if you are promoted to a higher position all of a sudden, you will be excluded and suppressed by many people, which is extremely detrimental to your development, otherwise, I really want to promote you to the third grade, or even the second grade." Xia Qi's mind recalled the words of the Song family and the Yang family to Shen Yan, and felt that it was necessary to hint at Shen Yan, or warn Shen Yan, although Shen Yan's choice now is right, it does not mean that he will encounter the same temptation in the future, and he can still stick to the right choice.

"Thank you for the emperor's trust and appreciation of Weichen, Weichen thinks it's good now." Hearing the emperor's heartfelt words, a touch of excitement and gratitude appeared on Shen Yan's face, and a touch of sincerity appeared in his eyes, and he said loudly.

"Wechen heard such a sentence when he was young: It's not because you reach a certain age that you must be able to do something and become an official at a certain level, if you want to get this level, you must find your own shortcomings, and then make up for them before you have a chance. And Wechen is now less than twenty years old, and he has already achieved the five-grade official, which is already a great challenge for Wechen, if he climbs up, Wechen not only can't do it, but will make some mistakes because of lack of ability, but give those who want to suppress Wechen handle, they will definitely join forces to suppress Wechen, and even get the emperor here, isn't this a blockage for the emperor. ”

"It's really gratifying for me to think like that." Xia Qi heard Shen Yan's heartfelt words, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, looked at Shen Yan's eyes, and said indifferently.

"Indeed, your current official position is indeed good compared to your age, and it is the mission of the four departments, and the requirements for you will definitely be increased accordingly, what you need to do now is indeed to improve your ability and do a good job in the affairs of the existing four departments."

"I have already ordered the old eighteen to be transferred back, and it is expected that he will return to Jinling tomorrow." A strange look flashed in Xia Qi's eyes, and he glanced at Shen Yan.

"I originally wanted to make you the master of the eighteenth old, but you are not the material, so I dispelled this idea, but you still have to take more time to guide and even teach him in the future, you are not a few months older than the eighteenth, and you can also take care of him as a brother."

"Weichen is afraid, how can he dare to teach the Eighteen Princes." Shen Yan heard the emperor's words, and a strong surprise appeared in his eyes, the Pope, what kind of international jokes, although this is a very dazzling profession, but you have to have enough literary talent, what you have in your stomach, you know, fortunately, the emperor dispelled this idea, otherwise, isn't it obvious that you are chasing ducks to the shelves.

"Don't be poor with me, what kind of person you are, what kind of talent and ability you have, I know it clearly, let you teach the eighteenth, it means that you have this ability, but the timing is not right." Xia Qi heard Shen Yan's modest words, and hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt.

"Lao Eighteen is a good seedling, it's just that I wanted to protect him too much before, so that he missed the best age to study, however, many things are not learned as early as possible, this time you proposed to let Lao Eighteen go to Lingnan with you, his performance in Lingnan can be said to be remarkable, and he won my heart, but it's a pity that ,......" Xia Qi said this, and couldn't help sighing, and a strong disappointment appeared in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, could it be that the eighteenth prince did something wrong in Lingnan?" Shen Yan heard the emperor's words and stopped, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes, he glanced at the emperor slightly, and saw that the emperor's expression was a little gloomy, as if something bad had happened.

"This matter has nothing to do with the old eighteen." Hearing Shen Yan's inquiry, a bitter smile appeared in Xia Qi's eyes, some disappointed, and some annoyed.

"Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for being bold, I don't know what happened to make your emperor so disappointed." Shen Yan relied on the trust of the emperor, a trace of anxiety and curiosity appeared in his eyes, glanced at the emperor, and asked loudly.

"Luo Yuhui, the chief soldier of the former army of Jinling, wanted to finish his work in a battle, but instead fell into the ambush of the White Lotus Sect, and after the first battle, the former army of Jinling lost almost half, fortunately, the foundation of the former army of Jinling was relatively strong, and the ambush of the White Lotus Sect was killed, and Luo Yuhui later relied on the combat method of seeking stability, and finally maintained a stalemate with the White Lotus Sect." Xu Sanyuan saw the emperor's eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and told Shen Yan about Luo Yuhui's defeat.

Xu Sanyuan has been quietly listening to the conversation between Shen Yan and the emperor, and when he heard Shen Yan take the initiative to explain to the emperor that the Song family, the Yang family and Beihu were co-opted, Xu Sanyuan secretly praised Shen Yan's wise choice in his heart, especially when he took the initiative to hand over the items that Beihu had wooed, Xu Sanyuan secretly admired Shen Yan's cleverness.

And when he heard Shen Yan talking and laughing with the emperor, the emperor was not angry at all, but praised Shen Yan clearly, and even said that he wanted Shen Yan to be the master of the eighteen princes, Xu Sanyuan's eyes flashed a strong shock, fortunately, the emperor dispelled this idea, otherwise, Shen Yan would definitely become the target of the important ministers in the court.

"Finishing its work in a battle itself is a very aggressive idea, fortunately, the military quality of General Luo is there, and the strength of the former army of Jinling is there, otherwise, attacking the White Lotus Sect besieging Xiangzhou Mansion will definitely become a big failure for the imperial court, and it will also become a bad reputation for the emperor." After listening to Xu Sanyuan's statement, Shen Yan had a very flat look in his eyes, and he didn't seem to realize that he had said the wrong thing.
