Amid the attention of the officials, Wei Chen put down the wine cup in his hand and slowly stood up from his seat.

The officials in the same seat also stood up, Sheng Changbai and Wang Yaochen bowed to Wei Chen together. Wei Chen returned the salute, nodded to the two with a smile, and then went along the stone steps towards Jianji Hall.

Wei Chen walked calmly to the front porch of the hall and looked into the hall gate. However, he saw banquets on both sides of the hall, and the governors and governors of the twenty-four provinces of the Great Zhou Dynasty were present.

They were not within the scope of the inspection, but accompanied officials from the province to Beijing and sent the examination to the Ministry of Personnel.

All the officials sitting in the hall were in charge of the border. Looking around, the vermilion and purple color of the hall made Wei Chen feel awe-inspiring.

Officials from Honglu Temple led Wei Chen into the hall and went up to the imperial throne, and then sang a praise ceremony.

"My minister, Wei Chen, see Your Majesty!"

Wei Chen greeted Zhao Zhen on the imperial throne. He had not attended such a grand ceremony for a long time, but the etiquette at this time was comprehensive and there was no mistake.

Facing the Zhu Zi official in the hall, Wei Chen was serious and solemn, but he was not frightened. After all, he was the official of the Jingxuan Bookstore and had met many important officials of the cabinet. This kind of scene could not scare him.

After getting up after the ceremony, Wei Chen's eyes quickly passed by the imperial throne. In a hurry, it was not very real, but it was enough for Wei Chen to notice Zhao Zhen's slightly hunched body.

The old look is revealed!

These four big words suddenly appeared in Wei Chen's mind. Thinking that the official on the imperial throne would pass away in a year, his mood couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

At this time, Zhao Zhen spoke.

"You guys, this is Wei Chen, the governor of Yuzhou. I believe you have heard of his name for a long time?"

The officials in the hall nodded one after another, and several of them looked at Wei Chen with a very appreciative look.

"Three years ago, I was on the Golden Palace and gave Wei Qing family the top scholar. Since then, Wei Qing family has been ranked six yuan and has become famous all over the world!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen looked at Wei Chen at the foot of the stairs and couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Three years passed in a flash, and Wei Chen was still the energetic young man, but Zhao Zhen himself was already old.

Zhao Zhen withdrew his sad thoughts and continued in a deep voice: "This dynasty has opened a tribute to the people in order to seek talent in the world. However, all the nobles think that what should be the priority of being a virtuous or not?"

If the censors and others present, when they hear Zhao Zhen’s question, the answer is naturally to put integrity and integrity first.

However, the current officials sitting in the hall are all lieutenants who are governors. No matter how good or bad the officials do, they are at least those who do practical things.

So, they replied at the same time: "The governance of achievements should be the most important thing!"

Zhao Zhen nodded when he heard this, then turned his gaze to an official and said in a deep voice: "Wei Qing's family has been the governor of Yuzhou for three years and is ranked first in the examination of officials in Henan. If we judge the performance of governance, it is indeed extraordinary.

Yuan Qing’s family, you are the governor of Henan, and the Wei Qing’s family’s test is yours. Can you tell me, why do you choose Wei Qing’s family as the first?”

【It has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, and is used by old bookworms

After he had a conspiracy, he stood up and said, "Thank you, my governor of Guangxi, Lu Yufeng, who has passed by Yuzhou when he entered Beijing this time. It is indeed as Governor Yuan said, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the people are honest. I hope your majesty will understand clearly."

Zhao Zhen had no expression on his face and did not comment.

At this time, another official stood up and said, "I have passed by Zhao Deyan, the governor of Huguang, and saw that the embankment built by Wei magistrate, was as solid as a golden soup. The local people all praised this embankment as Wei Gong's embankment, and called Wei magistrate Wei Qingtian."

"I am the governor of Shanxi..."

"I am the governor of Shaanxi..."

After all, Yuan Yingdao, five important officials at the level of governor spoke for Wei Chen, which surprised the officials present.

They could sit at their current position, so they wouldn't be stupid. They were a little surprised at first, but soon they figured out the trick.

Wei Chen was the six yuan appointed by Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen could be said to be extremely kind to Wei Chen. When he was demoted to Wei Chen, he was forced to do it under the pressure of the censor, and he would reuse it again sooner or later.

Zhao Zhen now deliberately made such a gesture, obviously trying to promote Wei Chen, but he was worried that the censor would continue to hold on to Wei Chen.

Yuan Yingdao and the others obviously saw this, so they dared to make a frank way of giving advice and recommending wise men to the country.

As soon as he thought of this, several southern governors couldn't help but feel a little upset. When he went to Beijing, he walked on the waterway of the canal transport route and had never passed through Yuzhou at all. Now he wanted to pretend to be a loyal minister and was no longer a chance.

What a pity, what a pity!

At this moment, Zhao Zhen suddenly slapped the Yan and laughed, "What a loyal saying! I live all over the world and are rich in the world. I have all kinds of rare treasures, but I lack these few loyal words from you guys!

Wei Qing's family served in Yuzhou for three years. He had a clear and upright official reputation and outstanding achievements in governance. Although he had a minor mistake in the past, his flaws did not cover up his merits. He returned to the capital and promoted him to encourage the hearts of the scholars and the people in the world!"

Zhao Zhen's eyes returned to Wei Chen and said in a deep voice: "Gao Huai, announce my order!"

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, Gao Huai, who was standing beside him, immediately took out an imperial edict that had been prepared and read it out: "Your Majesty has an order to grant Wei Chen, the former governor of Yuzhou, the lecturer of the Hanlin Academy, I admire this!"

The content of the imperial edict was passed down from time to time, becoming louder and louder, resounding inside and outside the hall until it was heard by the officials outside the hall.

After a moment of silence, countless whispers and discussions finally came from the banquet table.

Wang Yaochen stood there in a daze: "Students? Xingyun's speed of promotion is really far above me..."

Wang Yaochen became a seventh-rank editor after only two years in the Hanlin Academy. Compared with other Shujishi, he was already very outstanding.

Wei Chen, who was obviously the same year as him, became a fifth-rank lecturer.

Only after the Hanlin exam is completed in the ninth year of Hanlin, if you follow the steps, it will take twenty-seven years to be promoted from the seventh grade editor to the fifth grade lecturer.

Of course, as a Hanlin, there are many opportunities for promotion, such as making contributions in book study, being elected as a judicial officer, or opening a court office, as well as an official position in the Zhanshi Mansion.

But even so, Wei Chen's promotion speed was enough to make Wang Yaochen and other best in the Hanliners despair.

They are also from the fifth rank, Yuzhou magistrate and the lecturer, but they are not of the same level as the same level.

The emperor is called the king, the prince is called the crown prince, and the chief minister of Longtu Pavilion is called the prime minister. So who can be called the crown prince?

Shujishi?

Obviously not qualified.

Only ordinary people who do not know how to do things will call Shujishi by the name of Chu Xiang.

In fact, it is generally recognized in the officialdom that only by being a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy can one be truly called the Prime Minister!

This is the value of this position!
