Huangmenlang generally refers to the Huangmenshilang, and there are different types of Huangmen.
This is a very interesting official title in Qi State. Some people would rather not be the number one scholar, but would try their best to enter the Hanlin Academy and become a Huangmenlang.
Because Huang Menlang is a close servant of the emperor, he can convey the emperor's edicts and can freely enter and exit the palace.
It is a very important position to have access to many court secrets.
But this official position is important, but it is useless. Some people may enter the Hanlin Academy and remain just a junior member of the fifth rank for the rest of their lives.
Because there are many Huang Mengmen in the Hanlin Academy, there are currently thirty-four Huang Mengmen on standby in the Hanlin Academy.
But if you can gain the emperor's favor and pass through the second-grade Dahuang Sect, it will be completely different. That is, you will be a real servant of the emperor, and a big shot who can have access to the core secrets of the imperial court.
This official position will either remain unknown for a lifetime, or it will rise to the top in one step and then rise to the top. Therefore, Huang Menlang is an official position that countless people in Qi State want to get.
Zhou Ming and Liu Yanran naturally knew it. After all, the prime minister's son was just as she thought.
In the past, Zhou Ming gave people the impression that he was just a douchebag who waited for death and was idle, bullying men and dominating women from time to time.
But now, because of his so-called meritorious service in national affairs, he has become a Huangmeng of the Hanlin Academy.
That will definitely attract the attention of many people in the imperial capital.
Liu Yanran wanted to use Zhou Ming to tell these people that as long as they served the country of Qi, even a loser like Zhou Ming would have a chance to reach heaven in one step.
But judging from Zhou Ming's own ability, unless he Zhou Mingding came up with a system.
Otherwise, Liu Yanran would definitely make him remain a prostitute for the rest of his life.
Therefore, the official position of Her Royal Highness the Princess is really not given casually. It gives Zhou Ming a chance to rise to the top in one step, but this chance is only slim.
Silk.
But for Zhou Ming, or rather Song Qingyan, this was really pie in the sky.
Especially when the documents from the Ministry of Personnel and Liu Yanran's decree were delivered to the Zhou Mansion, everyone in the Zhou family was still confused.
"This, my lord, are you saying that my family can enter the Hanlin Academy and serve as the Huangmen Minister tomorrow?"
Song Qingyan couldn't believe her ears and stared blankly at the officials from the Ministry of Personnel.
The official nodded. Naturally, he did not dare to treat the Prime Minister's wife lightly and said respectfully, "Madam, you are right. Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess appointed her personally. Tomorrow, Zhou Ming will be able to take office at the Hanlin Academy. All the official uniforms and documents have been prepared."
."
"The Hanlin Academy has also notified you."
Song Qingyan immediately looked at Zhou Ming and was extremely surprised, "Why don't you kneel down tomorrow to thank His Highness for your support!"
Zhou Ming was still confused and quickly knelt down to take the appointment document.
The eldest young master Zhou Gui on the side was also very surprised, but as an elder brother he was quite happy that his younger brother could become an official. He was smiling from ear to ear at this moment.
After the official left, Song Qingyan couldn't wait to grab the document from Zhou Ming's hand and looked at the appointment above.
She was so excited that she couldn't speak. It took her a long time to say, "It's really the appointment document of the Ministry of Personnel. Tomorrow! From today on, you will be the Huang Menglang of the Hanlin Academy! This is really great luck!"
Zhou Ming frowned and said, "I'm going to be an official now? Then how can I do business with Ba Ba?"
When Song Qingyan heard this, she was immediately furious, "You fool! What kind of business are you thinking about right now? This is a good way to get to the top in one step!"
At this time, Zhou Gui said with a silly smile, "Third brother, I heard from my father that there are many Huang Mengmen in the Hanlin Academy. In fact, it is just a leisurely job. If there is no summons, you can do whatever you want after ordering."
of."
"That's a good job!" Zhou Ming suddenly became excited when he heard this.
Song Qingyan's expression changed, she glanced at Zhou Gui, then looked at Zhou Ming and hummed, "Don't think so much, listen to me, just study in the Hanlin Academy!"
Zhou Ming had a headache for a while, but now he had some inspiration, "Okay, I know, Mom, I will definitely learn it hard, but if it doesn't matter, I still have to do business with Ba Ba."
"After all, this official position is bought with money. If I can send more money to the court, I will be promoted in the future."
"That's the truth. This happened thanks to Mr. Ba. I have to thank Mr. Ba Ba very much!"
Song Qingyan was filled with joy at this moment.
Zhou Gui said suspiciously, "Brother, Sanniang, what kind of domineering young master is this?"
"He's a good brother who partners with me." .??.??
Zhou Ming hurriedly introduced it to his elder brother, and then looked at Song Qingyan, "Mom, why don't you treat Ba Ba to a meal?"
"That should be the case. Let's go to the Zhenwei Building in the evening. Come tomorrow, put on this official uniform and let me take a good look at it."
While the Zhou family was rejoicing, Zhao Kang, who had helped Zhou Ming, took Nangong Long around the city of Shengjing.
Passing by the residence of the Minister of War, he stopped and said, "This also counts."
Nangong Long quickly wrote it down, and Zhao Kang asked quietly, "How many are there?"
"Thirty-five people." Nangonglong replied.
As he spoke, the old man couldn't help feeling a little emotional. When Zhao Kang went out for a walk, thirty-five people were on the death list.
he
The people noted down are all the targets they want to behead first when the war is about to begin.
All of these people were important officials of the Qi State, either responsible for dispatching troops and horses, or responsible for the operation of military supplies.
Half of them are military generals.
"Thirty-five people, let's write these down for now. Have you noticed any masters along the way?"
Zhao Kang asked with a smile, taking a bite of the sesame seed cake he just bought at a roadside stall.
Nangong Long raised his eyebrows and said, "There are really no places like these that we have selected. However, when I passed by the Imperial City before, I felt a few extraordinary auras. They should be the masters of the Qi Kingdom."
Zhao Kang sighed and finished the sesame seed cake as if he was swallowing a date. "When the action begins, you and Chen Jianghe must protect Lao Cao. In addition..."
Zhao Kang paused for a moment, and Nangonglong asked curiously, "What else?"
"There are several people who also need to ensure their safety."
Hearing what Zhao Kang said, Nangong Long nodded, "Don't worry, Imperial Master, leave this matter to me."
"Okay, let's go back then."
Zhao Kang took another look at the residence of the Minister of War passing by, and couldn't help but grin. It must be a very interesting thing for the Gongun princes to be killed by then.
The two returned to the shop.
The perfumes, soaps and wine that need to be auctioned have been sent to the auction house. At the moment, all the shops are selling is sugar and soap.
Because the soap has already gained a reputation, this soap is also extremely popular.
Priced at 2 taels of silver, there is a steady stream of customers, and it is obvious that these people regard it as a substitute for soap.
After a few days, one-tenth of the five thousand bars of soap had been sold, earning a small profit of one thousand taels of silver.
