Empress, please have some self-respect. I am not your husband.

They were initially quite unhappy with Lu Feng's arrogance, but now, no matter what, Lu Feng has made a great contribution.

Moreover, some people realized that Lu Feng was probably going to become an official in the imperial court.

During this period, he will be a favorite of His Majesty, so why not take this opportunity to recommend Lu Feng for merit and build a good relationship in advance?

Those old foxes.

Ye Bingyun naturally knew what these ministers were thinking, and looked at Lu Feng, saying, "Lu Feng."

"This humble subject is here," Lu Feng said calmly.

Ye Bingyun: "You have rendered great service. I wish to appoint you as the Junior Grand Master of the Imperial Household Department, with the rank of a fourth-grade official. From now on, you will not need to bow to the Emperor. Are you willing?"

Upon hearing Ye Bingyun's offer to appoint Lu Feng as the Junior Chamberlain.

The courtiers were somewhat surprised, because this Junior Chamberlain was under the jurisdiction of the Chamberlain's Office.

The official position was indeed quite high, being a fourth-rank official, but it didn't have any real power.

Because that place was where the children of the papacy studied, in other words, Lu Feng, the Junior Chamberlain, was actually just a schoolteacher.

But His Majesty has no children, not even a single concubine.

Going to work in the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, isn't that just eating for free?

Although Lu Feng didn't know what this young master did, he remembered that he had already made an agreement with Bingyun.

The emperor probably wouldn't break his promise, so after a moment's hesitation, he nodded and said, "This humble subject obeys the decree."

Ye Bingyun smiled and said, "Okay, Ministry of Rites."

The Minister of Rites hurriedly came out and said, "Your subject is here."

"Prepare official robes for Lu Feng's residence immediately," Ye Bingyun said.

The Minister of Rites repeatedly obeyed.

Having arranged everything, Ye Bingyun announced the end of the event. A huge weight was finally lifted from her heart. Ever since Yu Ningyan and the others entered Qian, she had been unable to eat or sleep properly, and was constantly worried.

Now that the matter is finally resolved, and with Lu Feng's assistance, she is overjoyed.

As soon as His Majesty left, all the officials gathered around Lu Feng to offer their congratulations.

"Congratulations, Master Lu."

"From now on, we'll be colleagues. I hope you'll take good care of me, Master Lu."

"Master Lu, I have a beautiful and talented daughter who has come of age. Would you like to come to my residence for a visit?"

Hearing the official's flattering words, Lu Feng was speechless and was about to speak.

Qin Xinyi's voice rang out: "Lu Feng, come with me."

The official was taken aback. He looked at Qin Xinyi, whose face was calm, and then remembered that His Majesty had previously intended to bestow a marriage upon the two of them.

Lu Feng smiled and said, "Okay."

Ignoring the other officials, he followed Qin Xinyi.

After the two left, the officials looked at Qin Ming, the Minister of Revenue.

"Lord Qin, I really envy you. Lu Feng has become a celebrity now. If you can also befriend your daughter, he will surely rise to great heights."

"Yes, and although Lu Feng is a bit arrogant, he is really talented. If he becomes the son-in-law of the Qin family, the Qin family will have a successor!"

Qin Ming grinned from ear to ear: "Haha, you're all joking. Let the young people talk about their own affairs. I won't interfere."

The old man clearly benefited but is still acting innocent.

Some ministers were displeased by his smile.

On the other side, Lu Feng, who was following Qin Xinyi out of the palace, was listening to her explain to him what the Junior Grand Tutor of the Imperial Household Department actually did.

Hearing that it was a leisurely job where you could just sit around doing nothing, Lu Feng smiled; this was perfect for him.

Qin Xinyi said softly, "His Majesty has no heirs, and neither does Prince Ye. So you basically have nothing to do in the Court of Imperial Sacrifices. Therefore, I advise you to pay more attention to political affairs. Only in this way will you have a chance to be transferred out of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices in the future."

"After all, to be honest, the Junior Chamberlain of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices can be considered a close minister of the emperor, and he has many opportunities to meet His Majesty."

Lu Feng casually replied, "No need, this position is fine and suits me well."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xinyi asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Because I don't have to do any work," Lu Feng laughed.

Qin Xinyi was speechless. Looking at Lu Feng's serious expression, which didn't seem like he was joking, she couldn't help but feel a little angry and said, "You're content with mediocrity. I think you're hopeless!"

Watching her storm off in a huff, Lu Feng was speechless. This girl really wasn't as cute as she was when she was little.

But it doesn’t matter.

at the same time.

In the Imperial Medical Academy, the Grand Chancellor, who was feigning illness, and the Hanlin Academician who had fled were drinking tea. The Grand Chancellor, in particular, was nowhere near his previous half-dead state.

However, both of them were somewhat worried.

"I wonder how things are going at the main hall?" the High Priest asked.

The Hanlin Academician asked cautiously, "Won't His Majesty punish me?"

"Let them punish me then, it's better than facing Song Qingyu! He's the greatest talent in the world!"

The Grand Master sighed helplessly, "We're definitely going to lose this time. I wonder who will be the unlucky one to face Song Qingyu."

Just then, the imperial physician who had gone to examine Song Qingyu's body returned.

Upon seeing him, the two quickly stood up: "Imperial Physician Zhang, how is the situation in the main hall?"

The imperial physician laughed and said, "The competition is over."

"The competition is over. So what's the situation? Has His Majesty ceded the cities of Xizhou?" The Hanlin Academician sighed.

Imperial Physician Zhang scoffed, "What do you mean by ceding cities? We've won!"

"What did you say? We won?"

The two adults were dumbfounded: "How is this possible!"

"How is it impossible!"

Facing the two who deserted their post, Imperial Physician Zhang felt a bit contemptuous and said, "You didn't see that Song Qingyu was so angry that he died right there in the main hall."

"What! Song Qingyu died of anger! Who did it?"

The two were extremely surprised. Imperial Physician Zhang casually said, "It's a man named Lu Feng. I heard from other officials that he directly defeated the so-called number one talent in the world. His Majesty has bestowed upon him the official position of Junior Chamberlain of the Fourth Rank. The Ministry of Rites is already preparing his official residence and robes. Oh, by the way, gentlemen, His Majesty has asked me to deliver an imperial edict to you two."

The two were still reeling from the shock of Song Qingyu's death and Lu Feng's official appointment.

Imperial Physician Zhang said calmly, "His Majesty says that the two officials can stay home to reflect on their actions starting today. They may return to court whenever His Majesty summons them!"

The two scholars, Hanlin Academician and Chancellor, exchanged a glance, feeling as if the sky had fallen!

……

State Guesthouse.

Upon returning to the Western Chu, the group stared at Song Qingyu's corpse, speechless.

They arrived in Qian Kingdom full of confidence, but they never expected to suffer such a crushing defeat and to suffer continuous losses.

One person finally couldn't hold back any longer: "Damn Lu Feng! If it weren't for him causing trouble, Qian Guo would be a fish on the chopping board right now!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill? How? Don't forget, Wei Qingfeng might have died at this guy's hands!"

"Why don't we ask Tingfeng Tower for help?" The speaker looked at Yu Ningyan, and everyone's heart skipped a beat.
