Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

At this time, all the officials in the entire hall were agreeing with Zhu Yuanzhang to let Hu Fei be the Minister of Education, whether they came to support Hu Fei today or just to watch the fun.

"His Majesty..."

"Hu Fei, since my father has said so, if you refuse again, you will really have failed the holy will, and I will not stand it."

Hu Fei originally wanted to refuse with a grimace, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Prince Zhu Biao.

I saw Zhu Biao looking at Hu Fei seriously, with deep meaning in his eyes.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right. You are the most talented person in the Ming Dynasty. It is most suitable for you to be in charge of this department!"

South Korean Mr. Li Shanchang also stood up and said seriously.

Immediately afterwards, the King of Qin and the King of Jin also began to echo, and even Hu Weiyong almost couldn't help but speak.

Seeing how everyone kept persuading, Hu Fei could only choose to compromise.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, then I would rather be respectful than obey your orders."

"But I hope your majesty will agree to Wei Chen and only let Wei Chen serve as his deputy, otherwise Wei Chen will be worried that he will not be qualified."

Hu Fei looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said seriously.

"Deputy?"

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but show a trace of hesitation.

"That's right, it's just a name. When there is indeed a need for Wei Chen to come forward, Wei Chen will come forward. As for the daily management and official duties, other people will be responsible for it. Your Majesty understands that Wei Chen is indeed very busy on weekdays and has no time to worry about it.

"

Hu Fei nodded, with a bitter look on his face, and said seriously.

"Are you busy? I think you still don't want to lose your freedom because of this, right? You still don't want to become an official!"

Zhu Yuanzhang curled his lips and said slightly dissatisfied.

"I don't dare. I'm really just worried about failing His Majesty's trust."

Hu Fei said with a grimace and a sigh.

"Okay, I won't force you, I'll just follow you."

"From today on, the Ministry of Education will be established. Hu Fei will serve as the minister of the Ministry of Education, ranking third. As for this minister, we will make an announcement after my decision."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, not wanting to bargain with Hu Fei anymore. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at everyone present and said loudly.

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Hu Fei hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

Third grade?!

Unexpectedly, not only did he have nothing to do this time, he was directly promoted from the eighth-grade Teruma to the third-grade minister. In the past, there will probably never be another person who has been promoted so quickly.

But the officials who originally came to see how Hu Fei died now looked at Hu Fei with eyes full of envy and jealousy, secretly lamenting the unfairness of his fate.

Needless to say, Xu Da was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Okay, let's stop here today. You can retreat on your own."

"Hu Fei stays!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at everyone, waved his hands and said.

Hu Fei was stunned for a moment, at a loss. He wanted to ask more, but seeing the serious look on Zhu Yuanzhang's face, he swallowed all the words that came to his lips.

As a result, everyone bowed and knelt down one after another, and slowly retreated with their own thoughts in mind.

After Hu Weiyong winked at Hu Fei, he slowly left with Li Shanchang and others.

Soon, Hu Fei was the only one left in the originally crowded hall.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you leaving me alone?"

Hu Fei hesitated for a moment, bowed his hands, and asked nervously.

"What? Are you afraid now?"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice without any expression on his face.

Hu Fei smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

"Don't worry, since I have forgiven you, I won't make things difficult for you for the time being, but if you still do whatever you want in the future, I will definitely not forgive you lightly!"

Seeing Hu Fei's embarrassed look, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smile and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will keep this in mind."

When Hu Fei heard this, he hurriedly saluted respectfully.

"I left you alone because there are still some things you don't understand in the new answer sheet you submitted in the third exam. I hope you can explain it to me in detail."

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he took out Hu Fei's new answer sheet from the third exam and spoke slowly.

Hu Fei breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang the strategies for governing the country that were plagiarized from historical knowledge.

Hu Fei spoke eloquently, while Zhu Yuanzhang nodded frequently and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper.

Pang Yuhai stood aside, serving Zhu Yuanzhang and Hu Fei silently.

After a long time, all the puzzles in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind were finally solved, and then he gave up.

"Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Zhu Yuanzhang carefully put away the examination paper, looked at Hu Fei, and asked seriously.

"Reward?"

"Your Majesty, I am scared. As long as Your Majesty calms down, I will be satisfied. How dare you ask for a reward? Besides, you have just raised my rank to five levels in a row. How can you dare to ask for a reward?"

When Hu Fei heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly.

He was grateful to God for being able to save his life from hell.

"One code leads to another. According to your request, the minister of education is just a false position. I want you to choose another one among the six departments and serve the imperial court well."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

"Your Majesty, I really don't do these things to seek rewards. I just want to do my little bit to make the Ming Dynasty stable and the people to live and work in peace and contentment."

"If your Majesty must reward me, just reward me as a worry-free officer."

Hu Fei looked troubled and said slowly.

"The worry-relief officer?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly.

"That's right, from now on, as long as His Majesty is worried, the ministers will try their best to relieve His Majesty's worries."

Hu Fei nodded and said seriously.

After hearing Hu Fei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh out loud, grinning from ear to ear.

"You, I'm afraid you are the only one who can come up with these weird names. Sometimes I'm really curious about what's in your head. How come you always say some unusual words and do some unusual things?

A common thing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, pointed at Hu Fei's head, and said jokingly.

"Wei Chen, just think that your Majesty is praising Wei Chen for being smart."

Hu Fei cupped his hand and said flatteringly.

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed again.

"Okay, don't get carried away. The more you talk, the more excited you will be."

"Tell me, what are you going to choose?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, became serious again, and continued to ask.

"Still have to choose?"

Hu Fei asked with a grimace.

"certainly!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said.

"Is it okay if I don't choose?"

Hu Fei asked shamelessly.

"no!"

Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to be dissatisfied and shouted.

"Then let's go to the Governor's Palace. The other six departments, the ministers don't want to choose any of them."

Hu Fei scratched his neck and tried to fight for it.
