After my mind was read, I became the emperor's favorite

"Your Majesty has arrived—" Jun Linyuan walked to the imperial desk and sat down.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor." The three of them immediately bowed their heads in salute.

Qi Mingze had rehearsed it several times in his mind, so he did it very well.

"Everyone, please stand up and take your seats."

The originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became tense due to Jun Linyuan's joining.

This was the first time that Pei Xiangzhi and Feng Heng faced His Majesty directly. They pretended to be calm and only dared to sit halfway on the chair, with their hands in their sleeves trembling slightly.

Qi Mingze sat firmly, but just looking at the other two people sitting made him feel very tired.

Sitting still and squatting, using the calves to exert force, is more tiring than squatting in a horse stance. Your feet will cramp in less than half an hour.

Jun Linyuan pursed his lips slightly when he saw this. He knew that his behavior today had scared them.

But this psychological quality is too difficult to describe in words.

However, since he has decided to use students from poor families to check and balance the aristocratic families, this small flaw can still be tolerated.

After all, I have too little experience. I need to gain more experience in the future, otherwise I will not be able to be of great use.

Pei Xiangzhi and Feng Heng never dreamed that their performance today would lead to their thrilling and magnificent official career in the future.

Comparing the two, Qi Mingze's performance is much more eye-catching.

If you didn't know his true situation, you would never have guessed that this young man had changed his mind.

"I asked the three of you to stay so that we could set up the Taishi Pavilion and supervise all officials."

"The Grand Historian can order the Black Clothes Guard to act as they see fit."

"The emperor has granted special permission to execute first and report later if necessary."

Originally, he had not planned to form the team now, thinking of letting them gain experience for two or three years, which would also provide more options for the next scientific expedition.

But given the current situation, let’s use it to train people first.

Anyway, no matter what happens, he can cover it up.

Originally, it was impossible for him to let Qi Mingze in, but he had to keep such an interesting thing by his side.

Qi Mingze looked at Jun Linyuan suspiciously, [What kind of new trap is this?

Put me in there too, and then make me an undercover agent in the open.

We still have to let the Qi family and the aristocratic families kill each other. Qi Mingze doesn't have that much power.

Even if the Qi family rebelled against the aristocratic family, what use would a declining marquisate have?

If I were really allowed in, I wouldn't be afraid of the difficulty of sending the gods away even though it's easier to invite them in. That's pretty outrageous.

Qi Mingze was really unsure about Jun Linyuan's actions.

It's a bit embarrassing for him, a PhD in psychology, to fail in his own field.

(Hint: The protagonist is a PhD in physics, chemistry, pharmacy, information technology, and psychology.)

He was very confident in his judgment, but logically speaking, there seemed to be something wrong with his profile.

The professor missed the days when he was doing academic work in school. There was no intrigue and only all kinds of cute and naive people.

Maybe staying in a simple environment for two years has assimilated his brain.

[Host, is it possible that His Majesty is not targeting Qi Mingze and is simply a fan of his looks?]

The system gave a weak reminder, not daring to frown at the host at all.

Marquis Wuwei took refuge with the Wu family, and it had already received a positive analysis report from the system background.

The emperor's intention to deal with the aristocratic families can be seen from the establishment of the Taishi Pavilion and this imperial examination.

It is a foregone conclusion that people from poor families will be given more opportunities. Otherwise, based on the performance of these two people today, their impression points alone would have been deducted to a negative number.

The fact that they are still allowed the opportunity to be promoted can only mean that the emperor is seriously short of people.

Just like the Time Travel Bureau, if it weren't for this expansion, it wouldn't know how many years it would have to stay in the system school before graduating.

As for whether Qi Mingze will be reused, what does it matter if I guess wrong?

It's just a harmless little thing. After all, the host is an academic, so how could he know the preferential treatment given to people of good looks in the fan circle?

There is no shortage of people who are attracted by unparalleled beauty in every world. The emperor already owns the whole world, so what's wrong with him wanting to see a group of handsome men every day?

In less than half a day, the host has integrated so much key information, which is comparable to the intelligence chief trained by the main brain.

Jun Linyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, expressing his satisfaction with his decision.

It seems that this wise "host" is very troubled by his sudden whim.

For some reason, he felt very happy seeing Qi Mingze showing different emotions because of him.

Is this the joy of meeting a worthy opponent?

[Host, what is the difference between the Grand Historian and the Imperial Academy Scholar?]

The system was afraid that Qi Mingze would get into a dead end, so it changed the subject directly.

[The difference between a chief secretary and an ordinary clerk. ]

In fact, Qi Mingze didn't take this matter too seriously, and he gladly accepted the system's kindness.

If human hearts were so easy to study, it wouldn't be a world-class problem.

What's more, the person in front of him is an emperor, whose mind is as deep as the Mariana Trench, unfathomable.

Guess what he is doing, he said he would never roll again in this life, so he is taking a good vacation.

[Is that the one who does nothing as a secretary and does the work of a secretary when there's work to do?]

I don't know why, but this sentence popped up in the system's mind, and then it said it without thinking.

[……] Deathly silence permeated Qi Mingze’s consciousness.

[Pfft, system, I didn't expect you to be a little yellow tong! ]

Qi Mingze burst out laughing. If it weren't for his strong willpower, he would have almost behaved inappropriately in front of the emperor.

The system's face turned red upon hearing the words, and it was so embarrassed that it wanted to dig a hole and bury itself.

But he soon realized that something was wrong and asked back with wide eyes.

[Host, you actually know the meaning of this sentence.]

"As a normal adult, I know this isn't something I take for granted." Qi Mingze said this frankly, as if it were just the way it should be.

They would have to get along with each other in the future, and Qi Mingze didn't mind getting to know his "true face" systematically at all.

I didn't expect you to be such a host! The system felt its filter shattered.

However, such a down-to-earth host is actually more approachable.

Then the Lord and the Commander looked at each other and smiled, and everything was understood without words.

When Pei Xiangzhi heard the emperor's words, he felt his blood boiling and he wanted to stand up immediately to show his loyalty.

However, seeing that everyone around him was deep in thought, he could only suppress the excitement in his heart.

Although he was born in a farming family, he had the ambition to become a high-ranking official and have great power in the court.

However, he also knew that his status was completely different from those of the aristocratic children who had the support of wealthy families.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity, but he also couldn't give His Majesty the impression that he was in a hurry.

Feng Heng was of no reference value, but Qi Mingze, as the legitimate son of Marquis Wuwei, did not accept it rashly, so he could only hold it back for the time being.

You must answer it, but you have to seize the opportunity.

Compared to the other two people who were confused, Feng Heng was much simpler.

Although your Majesty's statement leaves room for maneuver, everyone knows that this answer will determine whether you will rise to prominence in the future or stop here.

However, this official position is too risky. If he is not careful, it will bring trouble to his wife, children and parents. He has to consider his father's thoughts.

"There's no rush. I'll give you a month to think it over."

Jun Linyuan took the attitudes of the three people below him into consideration, but did not take them too seriously.

Today he was just testing the waters a little, and Taishi Pavilion was just a less critical link among his many backers.

However, even Jun Linyuan could not have imagined that this department was set up on a whim to provide training for newcomers.

Under Qi Mingze's hands, he will become the sharpest blade for Xia Linchao to conquer Jiuzhou!

"From today on, you will assist me in my work in the Purple Palace.

One day will be arranged every ten days to go to Shangwen Hall to teach the Crown Prince. You can ask Han Taifu for the specific matters. "

"Chu Dequan, take them to Shangwen Hall first." Jun Linyuan waved his hand and asked someone to take them away.

As a martial arts expert who has practiced for many years, Jun Linyuan knew that these two people were almost at their limit. If they stayed any longer, they would not be able to walk out of the palace normally.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Chu next to him immediately agreed after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, I'll take my leave." The three of them followed Eunuch Chu out of the hall.

Seeing that everyone had left, Jun Linyuan couldn't help but hold his forehead.

"Your Majesty, do you have a headache? How about I help you massage it?"

Eunuch Tang, who had been standing at the back, said as he helped Jun Linyuan add tea.

"No need, Little Tangzi. How many Jinshi can be cultivated from these humble families? It's a pity that those who can be used are not used, and those who can be used are not suitable for the job."

Tang Hexi knew that His Majesty was not asking him, so he just needed to stand quietly aside and pretend that he knew nothing.

It is undeniable that students from poor families are not as good as those from wealthy families in terms of knowledge or character, otherwise he would not have resorted to extraordinary means to control this imperial examination.

But there is no way. He is so short of people now, and all the available people have been assigned to important positions and cannot be moved.

The ministers in the court are all complicated and connected, and there are too many hidden forces from the aristocratic families, which also impose many restrictions on him. He has indeed been dissatisfied with them for a long time.

He hoped that these people would not let him down, otherwise the aristocratic families would be eliminated by him and the imperial court would be faced with a situation where no one was available.
