Chapter Eighty-Eight: Your Majesty Shengming
Chapter Eighty-Eight: Your Majesty Shengming
When Liu Che is standing, others have to kneel.
Liang Kai, Peng Qi, and Shen Tuxue are no exception.
Prime Minister Zhao Zhou, who escaped death from Wang Wenshu, held his hands in front of his chest, looking at his nose and nose and his heart, and he had no distractions.
Liang Kai and the three were the talents he selected, and it was only after he went through layers of selection and announced the articles of the three to the world that he brought them to the emperor.
He thinks these three should be the three most talented people in this competition.
Therefore, although the emperor had circled around the three people twice suspiciously, he still did not panic in his heart.
Liang Kai is a young man with a little white pockmarks on his face, his face is not handsome, nor ugly, he is the kind of person who can't be found when he blends into the crowd.
His clothes and etiquette are flawless, and at a glance you can tell that he is from a famous family.
Peng Qi's appearance is outstanding, especially with a pair of smart eyes, which makes his originally handsome face more vivid, even under the gaze of the emperor, he is also turning a large number of curious Weiyang Palace.
Shen Tuxue is a descendant of the late Anhou Shen Tujia, the prime minister of Emperor Wen, although he was born in a famous family, his clothes are the most shabby of the three.
His gaze never left the Emperor for a moment, the light in his eyes was blazing, and he hoped that the Emperor would reuse him so that he could restore the glory of his ancestors.
Liu Che raised his leg and kicked Peng Qi.
Peng Qi's body quickly knelt straight, Liang Kai and Shen Tuxue's posture of kneeling was extremely standard, only Peng Qi knelt on his back heels.
Liang Kai glanced at Peng Qi, a little annoyed.
Shen Tuxue was already glaring at Peng Qi.
And Sui Yue, who was guarding the main hall of Weiyang Palace, had already paid most of his attention to Peng Qi, no one knew the emperor better than him, and only when the emperor was in a very good mood would he treat his courtiers roughly.
Before Peng Qi, the only people who were qualified to be kicked by the emperor were Cao Xiang and Huo Quai, and as for Yun Lang, the emperor had never done so.
Liu Che returned to the back of the table and looked at the resumes of the three again, as for the article on the top, he didn't even read it.
Liang Kai has been lonely since he was a child, and his widowed mother worked alone to raise Liang Kai to adulthood, and Liang Kai opened his wisdom by peeping at the rich son reading when he was a servant.
Then, he looked around for books to read, in order to have books to read, he was a rich child, a shepherd boy of a rich family, as long as there were books to read, he didn't even want the wages given by the rich family.
"You used to be a slave in the Yun Clan?" Liu Che put down the file and asked Liang Kai.
Liang Kai replied with an expressionless face: "Your Majesty, my mother doesn't want students to be slaves, so she has never been registered in a certain powerful family.
The Yun family is just a family of students and servants. ”
Liu Che nodded and said, "Why is Lu Bushu important?" ”
"Master Lu believes that students are a material that can be made."
Liang Kai's article is very good, which Liu Che believes, and he also believes that this young man is talented.
However, he doesn't like this kind of person with a one-dimensional temperament, but there must be no shortage of such people in the court.
"Let's go to the secretarial prison!"
Liu Che looked at Zhao Zhou.
Zhao Zhou Shili said: "Liang Kai entered the secretary prison. ”
Liu Che looked at Shentu Xue again and said: "Erzu Shentu Jia is honest and upright, and he is an official and comes to Guanneihou, and his honor is not unprosperous, and he has been the prime minister of the Han Dynasty for forty years, and it is the supreme glory of the Shentu clan."
However, arrogant and domineering, offending the prestige of the Son of Heaven and being expelled from the country, Shen Tuxue, do you have resentment in your heart? ”
Shen Tuxue bowed and said: "Shen Tuxue's heart is burning like fire now, I just want to revive the former glory of my Shentu family, Your Majesty can give Weichen a chance, it is the supreme honor, Shen Tuxue only has supreme gratitude in her heart, how can she hold hatred?" ”
Liu Che laughed when he heard this, pointed at Shen Tuxue and said to Zhao Zhou: "Look at it, this is my Han people, as long as I am talented, I will not hesitate to be promoted."
Shen Tuxue, are you willing to become an official in Taichang? ”
Hearing the emperor ask himself in a consultative tone, Shen Tuxue's tears flowed out, and she trembled and prostrated on the ground and said, "Weichen obeys orders." ”
Seeing that Shen Tuxue was so excited, Liu Che sighed and comforted Shen Tuxue, then set his eyes on Peng Qi.
Peng Qi met the emperor's gaze without fear and said, "Weichen is willing to go to the Lieutenant's Mansion to be the second deputy of Wang Wenshu!"
If His Majesty is willing to let Weichen go to the Tingwei Mansion and accompany Zhao Yu, Weichen will also be extremely willing. ”
"Aren't you afraid of Zhao Yu, Wang Wenshu?" Liu Che's voice also became gloomy.
Peng Qi smiled: "I am about to become a colleague with the prince and the prince of Zhao, why be afraid?" ”
Liu Che saw that Peng Qi was a hob meat, so he looked at Zhao Zhou and said, "Isn't there a better candidate than him?" ”
Zhao Zhou opened his eyes and arched his hand: "Weichen didn't find it. ”
"What do you think of a man named Kim Il-pan?"
Zhao Zhou arched his hand and said: "He can be in the top ten, and there is still a distance from the top three." ”
Liu Che thought for a while and said, "Put him in the top three, and Peng Qi will be in the back row." ”
When Zhao Zhou heard this, his heart did not fluctuate at all, and he arched his hand and said, "What Your Majesty said is true." ”
Liu Che glanced at Peng Qi and found that the smile on this guy's face had not changed at all, so he said to Peng Qi with one hand on his cheek: "You don't have anything to say?" ”
Peng Qi arched his hand and said: "As long as Your Majesty allows Weichen to enter the Lieutenant's Mansion or Tingwei's Mansion and remove Weichen's ranking in the imperial examination, Weichen doesn't care." ”
Liu Che frowned and said, "Oh? Tell me about the reason why you entered the Lieutenant's Mansion and the Tingwei Mansion. ”
Peng Qi said with a smile: "Whether it is the Duke of Zhao or the prince, they do the work too roughly, which has attracted a lot of criticism, if Weichen enters the Lieutenant's Mansion and the Tingwei Mansion, I guarantee that the work will be done very beautifully, so that Your Majesty will have no worries." ”
Liu Che let out a long breath and said to Peng Qi: "You are from the Yun clan, right?" ”
Peng Qi was not afraid, nodded and said: "Weichen has been a servant in the Yun clan for six years, and he has also completed his enlightenment in the Yun clan.
Later, I found out that I couldn't be an official in the Yun family, so I ran out to ask for an official.
Your Majesty, although Weichen is a disciple of the Yun family, he is an official of my Han Dynasty, and from now on, he will only have the Han world in his heart, and he will not have any selfishness. ”
"Why do you have to enter the Lieutenant's Mansion or the Imperial Captain's Mansion?"
Peng Qi finally put away his cynical smile, and solemnly saluted the emperor: "Weichen wants to fill the loopholes in my Han law. ”
"Do you think my Han law is incomplete?"
Peng Qi nodded and said: "The law of the country should kill people in a certain degree!" ”
"What's the explanation?"
"One person violates the law and the whole family sits together, and Weichen thinks this is a disadvantage."
"Ignorant son, come and blast him out of the hall."
As soon as Liu Che's words fell, Sui Yue pounced, grabbed Peng Qi's neck and threw it out.
Peng Qi landed on his buttocks, slid his way out on the smooth floor, and finally stopped at the door of the main hall, and before he could get up, he was grabbed by the arms of the two gold-armored warriors and thrown out of the gate again.
Jin Riyan was summoned by the emperor, and when he entered Weiyang Palace, he happened to see Peng Qi being thrown out.
Peng Qi naturally knew him, seeing that he was so embarrassed, but at this time it was not the place to speak, so he nodded and walked into the main hall.
After Liu Che threw Peng Qi out of the hall, he didn't get angry, and still talked to Liang Kai and Shen Tuxue with a pleasant face.
Being able to talk to a recent official for such a long time is the only time that Sui Yue has served the emperor for so many years.
After Jin Riyan came in, the smile on the emperor's face became more kind, and he said to Jin Riyan, who was kneeling on the ground, from a distance: "Come closer, let me take a good look." ”
Jin Riyan took two quick steps and knelt down in front of Liu Che again.
Liu Che looked at Jin Riyan carefully, and said to Zhao Zhou: "Do you know that six years ago, this was still a rough Hun savage. ”
Zhao Zhou's cheeks twitched and he arched his hand: "Now, this wild man is already a rare talent for my big man. ”
Liu Che laughed and said: "So, there is never a shortage of talented people in this world, as long as I want talents, there will be countless talents in this world for me to use." ”
Zhao Zhou arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, how should Peng Qi deal with it?" ”
Liu Che said with a smile: "Since he likes to enter the Lieutenant's Mansion and the Tingwei Mansion, then send him to the Lieutenant's Mansion to be a jailer!" ”
Zhao Zhou originally wanted to accept it in one bite, but suddenly remembered that he was the prime minister and had the duty to advise the emperor, so he bowed his hand again: "In this way, it is not Peng Qi alone that Your Majesty has humiliated, but the 11,326 scholars who participated in the big competition this time.
Your Majesty, please think again! ”
Liu Che was as good as a stream, nodded and said: "Zhao Qing is reasonable, since Peng Qi's reputation has spread, then, arrange a suitable position for him, but this position must be related to prison." ”
Zhao Zhou said in a dry voice: "Your Majesty, the top three are awarded 800 stones, Peng Qi was removed by His Majesty from the top three, and now he has replaced the tenth place of Jin Riyan, and 500 stones are awarded as usual."
There are more than 2,100 prisons in the Han Dynasty, 26 prisons in Beijing, more than 3,460 prison detainees, and only four prison detainees of more than 500 stones.
In addition to Tingwei Edict Prison, there are Lin Edict Prison, Ruolu Edict Prison, and Sikong Edict Prison.
I don't know where Your Majesty wants to place Peng Qi? ”
Liu Che listened to what Zhao Zhou said carefully, nodded with satisfaction: "Since he wants to go to Tingwei's Mansion, then go to Tingwei's Prison!" ”
"Watching politics?"
"No, the people from the Yun clan are the most practical, so they will send him to the Imperial Commander Prison and take office directly."
"I don't know what to do with the previous prison guard?"
"Kill it!"
Liu Che said lightly.
Jin Riyan saw that the officials of the secretary and supervisor had already begun to write the edict, and he couldn't help but worry about Peng Qi secretly.
Seeing that Jin Riyan was a little uneasy, the emperor asked, "Do you know this person?" ”
Jin Riyan hurriedly said: "I have met him a few times in the Yun family, and I have heard him explain the "Great Han Law" a few times, and he is quite an insightful person. ”
Liu Che smiled: "Since he is talented, wouldn't it be right for me to use him in practice?" ”
Jin Riyan said: "Your Majesty is wise. ”
Liu Che burst out laughing again, pointed at Zhao Zhou and said: "Since you all say that I am wise, then, tell Peng Qi that I killed the prison guard of Tingwei Edict Prison for no reason, and he must let me kill people, and the name of killing is justified, and I will live up to the name of Shengming!" ”
