How harmonious the court is is hard to see on weekdays.

The atmosphere in the side hall was harmonious, and Zhu Yunxi took the opportunity to sneak out Xie Jin and the others.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the three people who were hiding in the corner, their eyes narrowed and nodding their heads from sleepiness, and he couldn't help but smile.

These three young people were recommended by their sweet grandchildren.

In recent days, in addition to dealing with matters in the original yamen, I also have to go to the palace to sort out memorials in front of me every day.

Even though I, a bastard, am trying to take advantage of my laziness, these three young people are working diligently.

This is the person that the good grandson has chosen. Zhu Yuanzhang has witnessed their abilities and talents with his own eyes, so he values ​​them more than before.

The few ministers nearby did not express their opinions on this.

Nowadays, no one in the court knows that whatever matters the Emperor Taisun has on hand are left to these three people.

He is like a new member of the court.

At this time, blocking other people's career is like killing a family.

Zhan Hui, who was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, smiled heartily and said with admiration: "Your Majesty, Xie Hanlin, Xia Zhishi, and Tie Guishi, these three are formidable young people. They are prudent in their work and have outstanding talents. Recently, regardless of the post station restructuring in the DPRK,

, King Yan’s Northern Expedition to grant rewards, they all handled it properly and beautifully."

This is the factual basis for Zhu Yunxi’s request to seal three people.

He, Zhan Hui, was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. As the first minister of the past dynasties, he was in charge of the affairs of the civil and military officials in the world.

Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but turn around and glance at Zhan Hui silently.

Don't worry, old man, I won't touch you when we start trouble later.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the three sleepy people and couldn't help but cough slightly.

"Ah um..."

"Huh?"

"..."

The emperor's cough was not loud, but it made Jie Jin and the three of them tremble in shock, almost falling asleep.

The three of them opened their eyes blankly, only to find that the emperor, prince, and ministers in the palace were all looking at the three of them with amused expressions.

Xia Yuanji was the first to react. He stretched out his hands on one side and held up the buttocks of Jie Jin and Tie Xuan, and the three of them kowtowed to the ground.

"I am guilty of disobedience in front of the palace."

Jie Jin and the others did not wait for the ministers or the emperor to hold them accountable. Instead, they heard a burst of laughter in confusion.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the three of them and hummed: "Everyone raise their heads."

Jie Jin and the others raised their heads blankly, blinking their heavy eyes. For a moment, they couldn't tell what the ambiguous expression on the old emperor's face meant.

The three of them looked up at the emperor's grandson standing next to the emperor.

Zhu Yunxi was also very amused. When the three of them looked at him, he hummed and turned his head.

Zhu Yuanzhang also raised his hand at this time, with a teasing look on his face: "Why, are you three all married to new concubines last night, so you are so lackluster today?"

Jie Jin and the other two people shook their heads quickly, but in the end they were no longer so nervous.

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Zhu Yunxi, who was standing in front of him, and hummed: "The emperor's grandson has spoken for you, saying that you have worked hard recently and have merit. I want us to reward you well."

Xie Jin, Xia Yuanji, and Tie Xuan immediately kowtowed.

"I dare not claim credit for my duties."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "We are not those people who don't know right from wrong. We all see that you are prudent in your work. If you have meritorious service but are not rewarded, doesn't it mean that we treat your officials harshly?"

"I don't dare."

Xie Jin and the others kowtowed again.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang turned back and glanced at Zhan Hui, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and then pointed at Xie Jin and the others.

"Xia Yuanji had economic talent, so he was promoted to a doctor in the Zhejiang Qing Dynasty."

Originally, Xia Yuanji was the head of the Qing Li Department of the sixth rank, but he was just a clerk in the Qing Li Department.

Now promoted to the fifth rank of Zhejiang Qing Lisi Langzhong, he is the powerful official in charge of the taxation and economy of Zhejiang Province.

This is still a big reward.

Zhu Yuanzhang then pointed to Tie Xuan aside and said: "Tie Xuan was promoted to the doctor of the Ceremony Department of the Ministry of Etiquette."

Originally, Tie Xuan was only given the power of impeachment and remonstration by the Ministry of Rites, but with the Procuratorate here, he was very free.

Now, he is also a doctor of ritual system who has been promoted to the fifth rank, and is also the official in charge of the ritual system in the court.

Zhan Hui wrote down one by one at the back. The emperor decided to make promotions and demotions in these official vacancies, but his staff still had to make arrangements and adjustments when he returned.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were directed at Jie Jin, who was at the end.

He hummed twice, thinking that he didn't drive this stubborn donkey home a few days ago. Instead, it was because his old man came to the capital under the imperial edict, so he spent a lot of money to reward him and sent someone to send him back to his hometown.

Zhu Yuanzhang then said in a deep voice: "Xie Jin is in the Hanlin Academy, compiling history and compiling books. It is an important matter for the country. If he brings back his achievements, he will be rewarded by the court."

After doing this, Xie Jin and the others kowtowed again to express their gratitude.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at the old man blankly.

Xie Jin is now a bachelor's degree student from the fifth rank of the Imperial Academy, and the next higher up is a bachelor's degree in charge of the entire Hanlin Academy, which is only the fifth rank.

This is a noble place, not based on official rank.

It is impossible for the old man to let a young man in his twenties actually take charge of a government office such as the Hanlin Academy, which is most focused on classics and articles.

It was just when everyone thought that the emperor had finished awarding the rewards.

Zhu Yuanzhang unexpectedly spoke to Jie Jin and the others again.

"When the state, dynasty and society are innovating, we must not be complacent. You are the most talented people in the dynasty and have always been diligent. You can walk in the palace, go straight to the palace, and participate in political affairs."

As soon as these words came out, there was an invisible ripple in the side hall.

Walking in the Wenhua Palace is an official position that has never been held in the country.

However, this is not the most important thing.

Nowadays, Jie Jin and the others go to the palace every day to sort out the memorials, so the reward of going directly to the palace is insignificant.

The most important thing is the emperor's last words about political affairs.

You should know that in the past few years, the position of political advisor was still an official position in the Zhongshu Provincial Department that had not been abolished.

The Ming Dynasty's Zhongshu Sheng was completely deposed in the 13th year of Hongwu, and the post of political advisor was deposed in the 9th year of Hongwu.

However, before that, the post of Zhongshu Provincial Counselor for Political Affairs was a real second-rank official. In the court, he was second only to the left and right prime ministers, Zhongshu Pingzhang and Zhongshu Zuocheng.<

To put it more strictly, he is a court elder who is only half a step lower than the Six Ministers in terms of official rank, but whose power is almost the same.

Is the Emperor going to re-establish Zhongshu Province?

Zhan Hui and others couldn't help but feel suspicious, and then rejected the idea.

After all, the old man is talking about walking in the palace, which is an official position that has no rank at present, and the following is a delineated scope of responsibilities.

It's more of an honor than an official position. For the first time in front of them, they definitely understand the status of the Jin trio in the court.

Xie Jin and the other three were also confused. What is walking in the Wenhua Palace?

Seeing the three people thinking hard, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but cough slightly and whispered: "It's such an honor, why don't you thank me quickly!"

Only then did Xie Jin and the other three people react, and immediately kowtowed again.

"I thank you for your holy grace, and you should remember your majesty's kindness, take the world's society as your own responsibility, and serve your majesty and the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang is all smiles.

He looked at these young courtiers as if he were looking at the crops that were growing vigorously in his own field, which would give him a big harvest in the near future.

However, there is harmony and joy between the king and his ministers.

Outside, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, Jiang Wei, who was delighted with his flying fish uniform, quickly walked inside.

When Jiang Wei arrived in front of the emperor, he knelt on the ground, raised his hands and raised his chest. He glanced at the courtiers beside him, and finally looked at the emperor with eagerness on his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stopped his smile and said in a deep voice: "What happened?"

Jiang Wei is the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and he never shows his emotions.

At this time, when the emperor asked, Jiang Wei bowed his hands and said: "The Japanese invaders in Zhejiang Province killed thousands of households in Zhapu, Jiaxing Prefecture."

"Japanese pirates are bold!"

In the side hall, Zhu Yunxi immediately shouted angrily.
