Chapter 346 Li Ge old guides the imperial censor

Zhu Youxiao was surprised by Cao Sicheng's memory, but through Cao Sicheng's slightly lively eyes, slightly heavier tone, and deliberately changed expression, he realized that Cao Sicheng was using this to point at Qian Qianyi.

What Zhu Youxiao was most annoying to be an emperor for a long time is this kind of self-righteous official. If you ask you what you want, you will just answer truthfully. If you answer well, you may still think you are very capable.

But this behavior that is obviously purposeful and wants to use his emperor makes him feel bored, at least he has no good feelings.

Originally, even if Zhu Youxiao had the intention to beat Qian Qianyi, he didn't want to beat him anymore, because as the emperor, if he was led by you, the left censor Cao Sicheng, how could he control you old officials?

"Well, I understand," Zhu Youxiao replied perfunctorily and left Wenhua Palace, and said to Qian Qianyi who was following him: "Old Master Qian, Xin Weike's examination is about to begin."

Qian Qianyi was also a little nervous at this time. He obviously realized that His Majesty was already bored with him. The fundamental reason was that Zhu Ziming was too clumsy, which made him, who was the presidency of the lecture, unable to get rid of it. His Majesty is suspected that he had money or other political relationships with Zhu Ziming.

But since it was His Majesty Zhu Youxiao Prime Minister and he still called himself Master Qian, it means that he was not very annoyed, and he felt a little relieved and replied truthfully: "Yes!"

"You are the Prime Minister, the Minister of Rites, or the Tanhualang. You are both top-notch in talent and qualifications. You will be the one who presides over this exam. Be sure to select a talent who can do it for me!"

Zhu Youchao's words on Qian Qianyi were very loud, which made the Zuodu Censor Cao Sicheng and other officials present hear it clearly. However, Zuodu Censor Cao Sicheng was a little disappointed and shocked because His Majesty did not show any dissatisfaction with Qian Qianyi. Instead, he called Mr. Qian in front of Qianyi and asked Qian Qianyi to preside over the Xinwei Test next year. Everyone knew that the three-year examination was a national talent ceremony, and it was not careless at all, and it was not a serious official trusted by the emperor.

Now, Your Majesty actually asked Qian Qianyi to preside over the exam for Xin Weike next year. Cao Sicheng realized that his initial performance might be wrong, but His Majesty saw the clues, which caused His Majesty to be unhappy, which made His Majesty cover up his dissatisfaction with Master Qian and deliberately acted like he trusted Master Qian very much.

"In this way, I was counterproductive. I even helped Qian Qianyi by mistake." The Zuodu Censor Cao Sicheng thought about this and it was too late to regret it and complained.

Qian Qianyi became proud of this, smiled at Cao Sicheng with great interest, and walked over and said, "Mr. Cao is really knowledgeable. Mr. Qian can remember how he was the chief examiner of the Zhejiang provincial examination so clearly. According to Mr. Qian, you are not only able to be the Zuodu Censor, but perhaps more suitable to be the department of the Ministry of Personnel, but I don't know what Cui Tianguan thought."

Cui Chengxiu, the Minister of Personnel, just smiled faintly. He was a real-powerful official in charge of the Ministry of Personnel. He naturally could not be too close to Cao Sicheng and Qian Qianyi from the Censorate and the Cabinet, so he didn't say anything.

Cao Sicheng had no choice but to breathe heavily and his ears were red with shame, and there was nothing he could do about Qian Qianyi's humiliation and sarcasm.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao had already walked towards the Ganqing Palace and was not interested in seeing how his senior civil servants were slandering each other. Cao Sicheng also took advantage of the opportunity when the Emperor Zhu Youxiao left and stopped Li Mingrui who was also about to come: "Master Li, if you talk about this, Cao is just telling the truth, but Master Qian is saying this."

Seeing the Zuodu Censor Cao Sicheng looked aggrieved, Li Mingrui wanted to laugh very much, and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Cao, you are not telling the truth. You are adding fuel to the fire, but you didn't want to pour the right place, and almost burned yourself. Your Majesty is a wise master who has a clear understanding of the beauty. If you think you changed your way of speaking, your Majesty can't see what you are thinking. Remember what it means to tell the truth. It is to reply to Your Majesty in the original form without mixing any purpose. It is the real truth."

Cao Sicheng was still a little unwilling to accept it. He also knew that this time Li Mingrui and the cabinet assistant Qian Qianyi were even more inconsistent, so he couldn't help saying: "What Master Li said is very true, but I am still unwilling to accept it. Qian Qianyi, who lost his descendants, is so arrogant. Now he has accepted bribes privately and is a traitor, and everyone is punished. Now he still has the position of serving as a cabinet assistant. At that time, I, the Ming Dynasty, will another Yan Song be released!"

"Cao Sicheng, be careful of your words!"

Li Mingrui suddenly shouted Cao Sicheng in a low voice and pulled him aside and whispered: "Do you want to live? If Qian Qianyi is Yan Song, what will Your Majesty become today? In the inner world, you still dare to be careless. You really think you are a veteran of the three dynasties and a censor who can just talk nonsense. Will Your Majesty dare not do anything to you now?"

Cao Sicheng also regretted his words, and was so scared that his face turned pale, but he still whispered: "But Mr. Li, we can't just let Qian Qianyi, a corrupt official, continue to be so arrogant. You were the ones who were presided over this test, but now it's handed over to him. If this continues, how can my Ming Dynasty's great cause of rejuvenation be realized?"

Li Mingrui couldn't help but smile coldly: "Wait, people are often the most proud of when they are the most likely to fall. Do you think that letting him Qian Qianyi preside over the next year's exam is really a good thing for him? Let's wait and see."

After hearing what Li Mingrui said, Cao Sicheng couldn't help but feel proud and felt secretly satisfied. Li Mingrui said this, which shows that this Master Li was indeed dissatisfied with Qian Qianyi.

"I would like to ask the teacher to make it clear that I am stupid and can't figure out the key," Cao Sicheng bowed to Li Mingrui and said.

Li Mingrui smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty is giving him the last chance to reform himself. If Qian Qianyi's hands are clean, it would be fine. If he does something embarrassing, Your Majesty would not be so polite. But do you think a person like Master Qian can be honest and self-restrained? Even if he is honest and self-restrained this time, we can make him unable to stop. Now the quota of imperial examinations has really increased several times. According to the people of the Ministry of Rites, the business has also increased several times. At that time, find a few scholars to walk around with a lot of money. No matter how Qian Qianyi doesn't submit, you are the chief censor. If you report this matter at that time, Your Majesty will not blame you. Don't forget that you still have the power to hear the news."

As he said that, Li Mingrui said again: "Remember, Your Majesty is disgusted with the Censor's impeachment of him, but he likes the Censor's impeachment of officials, so don't have any concerns at that time, impeach whatever you see!"
