In the Imperial Palace, Fengtian Hall.

The empress is dressed in a gorgeous golden robe, and sitting below are civil and military officials, and the red-sleeved general Xia Ruoxi is here to guard her!

The blue bird led Kong Zhongzhi and Ye Qianxuan into the hall!

Xia Ruoxi glanced at Ye Qianxuan and felt puzzled - how come this loser got involved with Dean Kong Zhongzhi?

Later, when I thought about it carefully, it became clear.

It must be that Kong Zhongzhi liked Ye Qianxuan's poetic talent, so he brought him with him as a servant!

After Kong Zhongzhi entered the palace, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have chosen to enter the world, to cultivate myself, govern the country, and bring peace to the world!"

The empress was delighted to hear this. She raised her hand slightly, and an invisible force slowly lifted Kong Zhongzhi up: "My dear, you have finally figured it out. Hurry and stand up!"

"I summoned you three times, but you refused to come to court! May I ask who made you change your mind?"

"It's this corpse tailor!" Kong Zhongzhi raised his head and said proudly, "I'll laugh out loud and leave. I'm not a commoner!"

"Friend Ye gave me this poem to remind me that I have great talent and cannot be content to be a nobody for the rest of my life!"

At that moment, the whole audience was shocked and looked at Ye Qianxuan!

This corpse tailor who defeated the Southern Wu delegation with his poetic talent in the Honglu Temple actually wrote such a good poem and persuaded Kong Zhongzhi to enter the world!

An Luoyu was also stunned for a moment.

I laughed up to the sky and went out. How can I be a Penghao person?

She instantly recalled the scene of herself holding a blood-stained sword, wearing a red phoenix robe, and walking step by step towards the emperor on the throne on the steps of the Golden Palace!

"Father, if my brother is not up to the task, the throne can be passed to me. Today I will set an example!"

How similar it is to this poem!

From that day on, I vowed to be the number one empress in China!

Good poetry can bring back memories!

There is no doubt that Ye Qianxuan has written another unprecedented poem!

"Your Majesty, my teacher is willing to enter the secular world. This is a great blessing for our Eastern Zhou Dynasty! He deserves to be granted an official title and a higher rank!"

At this moment, a man in his forties came out and bowed.

This person is the Minister of Rites, Bai Haiqiu, who graduated from Anlu Academy.

The empress pulled herself out of her thoughts and smiled slightly. "The position of Minister of Rites is temporarily vacant. I would like to appoint Dean Kong to the position. What do you think, my dear ministers?"

All civil and military officials agreed.

Although he is only a third-rank official, which is a bit lower than Dean Kong's status, the Taichang Temple is in charge of palace sacrifices, rituals and music and other affairs, and is an agency directly under the emperor. It is just around the corner for him to be granted a title of nobility and appointed as a prime minister in the future!

The happiest ones are undoubtedly the civil service group!

Now, they have a powerful supporter within the imperial power group!

Although President Kong does not like factional disputes, he will definitely help for the sake of the friendship between teachers and students!

Could he help those inhuman eunuchs? Or perhaps a bunch of illiterate warriors?

Kong Zhongzhi bowed and said, "I obey your command."

Afterwards, he raised his head and continued, "Your Majesty, this time I have entered the court as an official. The corpse tailor Ye Qianxuan has made great contributions! Moreover, I have had a spiritual connection with him for a long time. I request that he be appointed as the Junior Minister of the Taichang Temple, to accompany me!"

The empress was delighted.

The reason why she specifically asked Kong Zhongzhi why he changed his mind and joined the court as an official was to let him mention Ye Qianxuan!

Now, Kong Zhongzhi's proposal is exactly what the empress wants!

Although Kong Zhongzhi did not like factional struggles, he was the teacher of many people in the civil service group after all!

She needs to put Kong Zhongzhi in a less important position first to see the results and see if he can be used for her own benefit!

And the best monitor is Ye Qianxuan!

At least Ye Qianxuan will definitely become his own!

At the same time, she also wanted to see whether Ye Qianxuan would fulfill the prophecy of Old Man Tianji!

Therefore, the empress needs Ye Qianxuan to serve as an official in the court!

However, promoting a corpse tailor who has already been confined to the status of a lowly person to be an official would cause great controversy!

It would be best if Kong Zhongzhi brought it up, so as not to damage the imperial prestige!

After Kong Zhongzhi finished speaking, the eyes of the civil and military officials in the court all fell on Ye Qianxuan.

"This……"

The empress also pretended to be in a difficult position, ready to see the reactions of the ministers.

Xia Ruoxi looked at Ye Qianxuan with confusion, bewilderment, surprise and astonishment.

She couldn't understand why Ye Qianxuan was so valued by Dean Kong!

"Are those ridiculous poetic talents really that valuable?"

"He... is he that powerful?"

He suddenly became a third-rank official!

I am only a fifth-grade one!

Xia Ruoxi had some complicated and inexplicable emotions that kept flowing out of her heart.

This emotion might be jealousy, or maybe... regret.

"Teacher, the position of Junior Minister of the Imperial Household is a high-ranking official of the third rank. How can we allow a lowly corpse-sewer to hold this position?"

Bai Haiqiu was the first to stand up and oppose.

"Yes! Teacher, you are confused! He is just a low-class corpse seamer, how could he be so good?"

"Your Majesty! Promoting a lowly person to be the Junior Minister of the Taichang Temple of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will make the world laugh at our Eastern Zhou Dynasty for being a nobody!"

Other ministers also jumped out to oppose!

Some tried to persuade Kong Zhongzhi, while others tried to advise the empress.

In their opinion, giving such an important Shaoqing position to a lowly person was a huge joke!

If a lowly person had to be in charge of rituals and music, what would other people think of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?

The empress felt helpless, she knew this would be the result.

"My friend's poetic talent far surpasses mine! He has defeated the Southern Wu Poet Sage again! This time, he has even enlightened me and allowed me to enter the court as an official! Such great talent is enough to make him the Junior Minister of the Imperial Household!"

Kong Zhongzhi argued his case in public.

"Teacher, this is not enough to free him from his status as a slave!"

"That's right! Poetry is just a fluke, it can't be considered his talent!"

"..."

The empress saw that almost all the ministers in the court were against it, and only Kong Zhongzhi strongly recommended Ye Qianxuan, so she could only shake her head:

"Lord Kong, let's leave this matter at that!"

"As a lowly person, Ye Qianxuan is indeed unfit to hold the position of Junior Minister of the Taichang Temple!"

"I will give him another reward."

As the saying goes, it is difficult to go against the will of the people. As the king of a country, you cannot go against the majority of your ministers.

Kong Zhongzhi also understood the reason. He had just entered the court as an official, and it was not appropriate for him to make enemies with all the ministers, so he had to withdraw.

Seeing this, Xia Ruoxi shook her head and threw away the inexplicable emotions she had just felt!

"After all, he's just a lowly corpse-stitcher!"

"Once you enter the slave class, you will always be a slave class. You can never get rid of it in this lifetime!"

"After all, you are not worthy of me, General Hongxiu!"

The pride returned to Xia Ruoxi's face.

The Empress looked at Ye Qianxuan and said gently, "I will promote you to the position of Corpse Seamer in the Yellow Chamber No. 2, and grant you a Bronze Danshu Iron Voucher."

The bronze red-lettered iron certificate can save one from death once. It is usually only awarded to those who have made military achievements. It is difficult for ordinary people to obtain it!

The ministers felt something was wrong, but they basically agreed.

Seeing this, the empress nodded slightly.

When you want to open a window in a room, everyone will try their best to stop you; when you want to tear down the house, they will agree to let you open the window.

Since Kong Zhongzhi proposed to let Ye Qianxuan be the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, you disagree.

Then it’s not too much for me to grant you a bronze red-lettered iron certificate!

After all, this bronze red-lettered iron certificate is as light as a feather compared to the position of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ye Qianxuan also knew that as a lowly person, he would not be able to get anything good, so he could only express his gratitude.

"After seven days, when you have sewn up the corpse for me, I will reward you with a thousand-year-old ginseng!" An Luoyu said with a smile, "This time, I will give it to you in person!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eunuch Cao who was serving on the side suddenly turned pale, but soon returned to normal!

He knew that the matter had been exposed, but in order to maintain the balance of power, the empress would certainly not punish him for a small corpse tailor.

However, Eunuch Cao still looked at Ye Qianxuan calmly.

This boy seems to have received too much attention from the empress!

In addition, he is the only successor of General Liu, and he is also the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple!

Could it be that... he is going to succeed? !

Eunuch Cao already had a plan in mind.

Xia Ruoxi looked at the bronze red book and iron certificate in Ye Qianxuan's hand, her eyes were so red with envy that she was about to spit fire!

I have been fighting for so long, but I have never obtained such a golden certificate, but I didn’t expect that Ye Qianxuan has one!

He was just a corpse tailor in Kyoto. What use would he have for a bronze red-lettered iron certificate?

Since it's useless, after the court session, I must find a way to get the bronze red book and iron certificate from this lowly corpse-sewing dog!

Anyway, it was like this before. As long as I snap my fingers, this dog will give his life to me!

This bronze red-lettered iron certificate will definitely be no exception!
