Chapter 272: The Great Court Meeting (6)
In full view of everyone, the emperor stood up from the throne.
He took two steps back and forth on the dragon platform, stood still, faced the ministers, and said again:
"Chen An's talents are unparalleled in the world. Therefore, I will reward him with the post of doctor of Taiyuan University again, so that he can have free time to give lectures at Taiyuan University!"
"..."
Is that what it is?
Those in Ji Tai's group breathed a sigh of relief, while a small group of people were slightly disappointed.
Because the status of such a doctor is nothing at all.
He is just a teacher.
He can't influence the situation of the court, and he can't save Li Chenan's life!...
Ji Tai withdrew his gaze and lowered his head again, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
This reward from the emperor is actually very meaningful.
The emperor hopes that Li Chen'an can teach and educate people in his spare time. Only those who teach and educate people will be full of talents all over the world.
And Li Chenan has the status of the emperor's eldest son!
If the emperor intends to let Li Chenan ascend the throne as emperor in the future, then the students taught by Li Chenan will be the disciples of the emperor!
The entire Taiyuan College students will be used by him in the future!
Then he won't have to worry about having no one available to help him organize his administration.
Therefore, the emperor's move was an extremely delicate one.
It's a pity that he, Li Chenan, doesn't have that much time anymore, because he is old and can't wait any longer!
At this moment, Li Chenan was also stunned, doctor?
Lecture?
Apart from copying some poems and articles, I really don’t know the Four Books and Five Classics, so what can I use to give lectures?
But what the emperor said is that he has time to give lectures on his own. If he has no time, of course there is no need to go.
In other words, with one more title, you should be able to get more salary, which is not bad.
Just when everyone thought that the reward for Li Chenan was over, the emperor suddenly took two more steps on the stage and said another sentence:
"Well, after much thought, I can't guarantee Chen An's safety."
"To show my appreciation for talents, I will also reward Li Chen'an with the position of deputy of the Imperial City Department, and he will take office immediately!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience took a deep breath.
Those officials who had just relieved themselves were caught off guard and almost fainted!
But the officials who were opposed to Jitai were all so shocked that they couldn't come to their senses at this moment.
They looked at each other in disbelief.
Because the Imperial City Division is the most special yamen!
That place is a restricted area for all officials, and it is also the sharpest sword hanging over the heads of all officials!
It has powerful force!
It also has pervasive spies spread across the country like ants!
Especially MI7, that is the sharpest knife in the hands of the Imperial City Division!
And the emperor granted Li Chenan the post of deputy deputy...
The deputy promotion is only inferior to Changsun Jinghong, the master of promotion!
Changsun Jinghong is already very old, so the emperor’s move is to ask Li Chenan to take over the entire Imperial City Division in the future!
This seems to be the real protection of your own son!
Even though Xiang Ji has great power, he has tried every means over the years, but he still hasn't even put a finger into the core of the Imperial City Division.
No one expected this reward!
But there is another problem with this reward——
The place in the Imperial City Division is too dark!
It is the Palace of Hell!
In the three hundred years of Ning Kingdom, he has been a prince, but he has never had the experience of serving in the Imperial City Department, because it is detrimental to heaven's morality!
But now the emperor has thrown Li Chenan in. From now on, he will have the status of deputy promotion, and he can always have the bull head and horse face of the Imperial City Division with him. If Ji Xiang wants him to die... I'm afraid it will be very difficult.
However, since the emperor has made such arrangements for him, does that mean that he can no longer get his hands on the position in the East Palace?
Is he at his peak when he debuts?
Could it be that I will spend my whole life guarding the Palace of Hell?
Wei Xuanmo, who was listening, frowned slightly.
Imperial City Secretary...deputy promotion...this status is not very bright!
The Privy Council of the Yue State and the Imperial City Department of the Ning State were extremely difficult to deal with!
If Li Chenan takes over the Imperial City Division in the future, and he happens to have the status of the nephew of the Emperor of Yue, will the Privy Council kill him or not?
From the perspective of the two countries, Emperor Ning's move was indeed a wonderful move!
After returning home, I should ask the Emperor of Vietnam what his attitude was towards this.
Among these people, the one who is feeling the most uncomfortable at the moment is Ji Tai!
He never expected that someone from the emperor would appoint Li Chenan as the deputy director of the Imperial City Department. This was like handing Li Chenan a knife and asking him to chop him down in a fair and just manner!
Therefore, he took a step forward and bowed: "When I meet the Emperor, I think that all Li Chenan's talents are literary talents!"
"The emperor cherishes talents, whether he is rewarded with an admonishing doctor or a doctorate from Taiyuan University, these are all related to literary talents."
"But that place in the Imperial City Division... is filled with a bunch of vulgar warriors. For Li Chenan to go there... Does the veteran think there is something wrong?"
This sounds like he is doing good for Li Chenan. After all, compared with the East Palace, the Imperial City Department is just a government office.
The East Palace is only one step away from the dragon chair above, while the Imperial City Division is just a step away from the dragon chair... but there is a world of difference!
Emperor Ning raised his eyebrows and turned to Ji Tai, but did not change his mind: "What Ji Qing said is biased."
"The Ning Kingdom was founded by force. Emperor Taigaozu established the Imperial City Division after the founding of the country. I remember that the first emperor of the Imperial City Division was Prince Wen, the second son of Emperor Taigaozu."
"He is not a vulgar warrior, he is a world-famous scholar!"
"In the Imperial City Division for another three hundred years, every time a warrior is promoted, the Imperial City Division will inevitably decline, so that the Imperial City Division will be rebuilt several times!"
"I asked Changle Palace Qingfeng Taoist Master to make a prediction. The Imperial City Chief is evil. The swords, spears, swords and halberds are made of gold. They are too hard!"
"Taoist Master Qingfeng said that if the Imperial City Division is to be an important weapon of the country, it should be filled with earth, and if the literati are virtuous, they can carry things like earth."
"Therefore, Li Chen'an can be promoted to the deputy position of the Imperial City Secretary. There is no need to discuss this matter again!"
The emperor's words left Ji Tai speechless, and also silenced a small number of officials who hoped that Li Chenan could take over the East Palace in the future.
Because the Emperor believes in Taoism and is practicing Taoism. Since these words are said by that Taoist Master Qingfeng, the Emperor must be convinced... It turns out that the Emperor's move was not a temporary move.
In this way, the status of the East Palace is still stable. And Li Chenan, at least for now, has no chance to get involved.
Ji Tai took a step back and bowed again, "Old minister, I understand!"
This has become a fact and cannot be changed.
So if we want to deal with Li Chenan again... we have to think long term and look for other opportunities.
At this time, Li Chenan was actually confused.
He has been to the Imperial City Division, and he has also seen the old guy Changsun Jinghong.
He didn't have any objections to that place, and he also liked the old guy Changsun Jinghong very much.
However, he suddenly became the second-in-command of the Imperial City Division. If anything goes wrong, there must be something evil... Could it be that I am really his biological son?
He didn't even think about the East Palace!
He only knew that with this identity, he could really run away in Ningguo!
You can really throw two fireworks outside the Prime Minister's Mansion at any time.
So, he grinned.
But I heard the emperor say again:
"Chen'an,"
"So, you can answer me, among the civil and military officials of this dynasty, who is the traitor?"
Chapter completed!
