Chef [Quick Transmigration]

What Zhang Xiaobai said was the truth, but the old general couldn't keep up with the times, and he believed that his grandson had concealed the thrilling process of last night, so he gave a lot of words very carefully. But the most important thing to be a courtier is loyalty. Following the current lord and rebelling against the old lord, it may be a moment of prosperity, but as long as one step is wrong, it will be forever.

Meng Jue's instructions made Zhang Xiaobai's not so cautious mood a lot, but when he thought of Qin Ze, he felt that his grandfather's words should be listened to at a discount. After all, he was the Ziwei Xingjun who was destined to create a new era. , You can't look at him with the eyes of ordinary monarchs.

From the crown prince to the emperor, although he has gone through the process of Zen position, it is not much different to Qin Ze. He still lives in Fengtian Palace, and Emperor Yongde has not moved from the harem. Just kidding, the Supreme Emperor moved to another palace for sure I want to live in the palace, how much money will it cost to build it now?The existing palace also needs to be repaired, and it still needs to be spent. Anyway, he doesn't live in the harem, so he can move it.

Generally, the first important thing for an emperor to do after ascending the throne is to preside over the funeral of the late emperor. Now that the Supreme Emperor is alive and well, the procedure can be omitted, but the first thing for Qin Ze to do is the official entrance examination.

In the past, the imperial examinations were held when the officials were more active. They invested in the examinations in advance, and their own children failed, or their daughters of the right age wanted to pick a young talent from the list. Anyway, they were not the ones taking the exams, and the excitement was enough. , Now it's their turn to take the exam. Even though the official entrance examination and the imperial court examination are only one month apart, none of the active officials in the past have been found, which makes many candidates in the current department curious.

After the official examination, this year's Jinshi is quite unappreciated. The chief examiner is the former head of the Imperial Academy who has served for more than ten years. No one thought that the teacher, who has been an official for so many years, could go out to inspect their knowledge, which was really a big shock.

Mr. Qi stopped accepting disciples two years ago. He planted flowers in his hometown, raised cats, and occasionally wrote poems. Don't mention how leisurely he was. Unexpectedly, he was invited by Qin Ze to do things when he was old. Qin Ze's reason was also Quite right, your old man has taught so many students, and they have blossomed in various departments of the court. Now that the court wants to assess them, you don't want to come and see if they have lost their knowledge over the years?Even if you don't want to be an apprentice, do you want to catch up with old friends and revisit the old place in Beijing?

To be honest... I kind of think about it.

After Mr. Qi was fooled into coming, it would be very easy to invite other elderly officials. No matter what reason he insisted on staying at home, as long as he mentioned that Mr. Qi had gone to Beijing in response to the call of the country, whoever was willing to come Indispensably, Qin Ze, an official, knows very well that it is quite prestigious to be able to spend a lifetime in officialdom until he becomes an official. Apart from being really old and confused, all of them are useful people. Military generals must be young and dare to fight, and civil officials must The old man is prudent, this is the principle of employing people.

The general examination lasted only three days, but the official joint examination lasted seven days. During this period, there were even second-rank officials who lost their mentality in the face of the examination questions and directly disrupted the order of the examination room. Those who exposed it made a fool of themselves.

Fortunately, the final result was gratifying. Apart from donating officials and hereditary succession, most of the court officials had gone through 20 years of hard study, screened out the talents who passed the exam, and reviewed them for three months. Qin Ze's exam questions were mostly practical. The test is about the ability of officials to do things. There are almost no ones who are too good, but most people can pass the customs normally, and there are not many who fail the test. These people are either really out of money, or professional talents, such as For people like Honglu Temple who receive foreign envoys, it is important for them to know the languages ​​of various countries, the etiquette of receiving people and dealing with things, etc. It is really embarrassing to test them with the knowledge of the examiners.

Qin Ze is very reasonable, and let go of those who can be let go. The officials who are screened out are basically donated officials, who spent money to enter the court department. For many years, now that the new emperor has taken office, not only does he deny the money they donated, but he is also going to hold them accountable for having been officials for so many years: You are so poorly educated, how do you usually do things?Every year, the judges are excellent. Did they bribe the superiors or take other people's grades?Are you a donor?I'm sorry, but the money didn't come into my hands, and I'm still going to pursue you.

An official entrance exam, with nearly [-] officials passed, coincides with this year's admission to the court, and those who were almost the same in the past spent money to find a way out or something, now there is no need to bother, and they can directly enter the court In doing things, those who are inexperienced follow the old people to learn. With Qin Ze speaking, these new officials really did not encounter too much trouble when they arrived in the Yamen. Of course, if they do something bad, it is not called trouble.

Zhang Xiaobai's examination results are considered excellent among the military officers. Shen Yanwei is a talented girl from the Hanlin family. When teaching him, she followed the teaching method of an orthodox scholar. She didn't leave it behind when she arrived at the Meng family. Based on actual combat experience, his papers were corrected by Qin Ze himself, and his written test scores ranked second among the military officers in Shangjing. Unfortunately, No. 1 was the commander-in-chief of the imperial army, Yue Shan, who saw everything through.

Former martial arts champion Yue Shan: ...I shouldn't be too good.

Then Qin Ze called Zhang Xiaobai to Fengtian Temple to give a two-hour lecture for the convenience of correcting the papers. It's all over.

Qin Ze coughed lightly, and said, "You have to be on duty tomorrow, and you won't be able to sleep for long when you go back, so just rest in the palace."

Zhang Xiaobai also stayed overnight before, no doubt about him, and was about to rest in the small room in the side hall, when Qin Ze said again: "It rained two days ago, and the bed in the side hall has not been taken care of. There are still some things I want to tell you, how about our monarchs and ministers sleeping together tonight?"

I don’t know how many times I have rehearsed this sentence in front of the mirror, and I still stumbled a little when I said it. Zhang Xiaobai hesitated for a while. His reputation in Shangjing is already inseparable from Qin Ze, and he will fall asleep for another night... …

Qin Ze looked a little disappointed, he sighed, and said, "Forget it, I'd better sleep alone."

This step of retreating is quite clever. Zhang Xiaobai rarely sees someone like Qin Ze showing such a lonely and pitiful expression. Thinking that this person has no memory and is only a young man in his twenties now, he wants to be with him. It's all about sleeping together with friends, he is a 500 million-year-old fairy, should he still hurt a young man's heart for the sake of his reputation?

Fengtian Hall was not originally a place to sleep, but only a large room in the back hall. It was built with the intention of giving the king a place to take a nap after handling government affairs. Qin Ze has been living here and has no time to renovate it. The specifications have been improved a bit, but fortunately the dragon bed itself is very large, let alone two people, even four or five people can sleep comfortably under the same bed.

Zhang Xiaobai slept in Datong bunk before, and was quite used to men sleeping together, but Qin Ze was the first time a big girl got on a sedan chair. He came from a wealthy family, and even if he had a brother, he still had a yard for each person. They all lay their pillows on swords, for fear of being assassinated, and as for sleeping on their feet...he really has no interest in sleeping with those subordinates who are not good-looking and have a sunny attitude. You can't leave people alone when you drive at night, or you will face pairs of frightened eyes.

Qin Ze was very excited. He not only waved away the palace servants who were about to come in to change clothes, but also changed clothes by himself, and dragged Zhang Xiaobai into a door of the bedroom. The other end of the door led to the hot spring. When the palace was built, Considering that there are many hot springs here, there is a special Yuquan Palace on the side of the harem, and only the concubines can go to bathe if they have to go to bed that night, while the Fengtian Palace is a small hot spring, which belongs to the upper class, and the water quality is clean. Qin Ze will come to soak when he is free. Take a dip.

The feeling of going to the hot spring alone and taking Xiaobai together is completely heaven and earth. Qin Ze has been eating lightly for the past few days, and he is afraid of another nosebleed. Now he will take it off by himself. After drinking the water, he greeted Zhang Xiaobai while still in the water, "Xiaobai, come on, let's go to bed after soaking!"

As he spoke, he patted the water again, with a look of joy on his face.

Zhang Xiaobai actually didn't want to sleep so finely, after all, it was already a watchdog, and he had to go to court tomorrow, but now seeing Qin Ze's smile all over his face, he couldn't say no, so he had no choice but to respond, took off his armor and went into the water.

The military officer in the attendant palace does not need to wear full armor, but he still has to wear lighter armor, which is convenient for blocking knives. Qin Ze can't even blink his eyes when he is in the water.

Zhang Xiaobai was taken aback, and asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

Qin Ze gulped down a mouthful of hot spring water, laughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment, and gulped a few more bubbles in the water.

Zhang Xiaobai: ...I'm afraid I was too busy during the day.

The small hot spring in Fengtian Temple is quite secluded. When Qin Ze was not Qin Ze, he once heard from his younger brother that this place is the most suitable for soaking with women. The hot spring water is smooth and smooth, and the beauty is half hidden in the mist. It is a man. I can't stand it, Qin Ze is very disdainful of his brother's aesthetics, and now the beauty is by his side, but he immediately forgives his old-fashioned younger brother. This aesthetic is not vulgar, and he is completely ahead of the trend of the times.

The two of them soaked quietly in the hot spring for a while. Qin Ze had wild thoughts at first, but he got used to it after a while. Thinking that he hadn't been able to reach out to touch it in a fair manner, those thoughts quickly dissipated. At that moment, Qin Ze stared blankly at the beauty who was close at hand while struggling with his body's instincts.

Zhang Xiaobai's breathing was very steady, but he didn't fall asleep either. He didn't recognize the bed, but the dragon bed was much softer than the bed he usually slept on, and the soft cushion was made of no one knew what it was. Shangli lay down lightly, only to hear Qin Ze's breathing on the side getting heavier and heavier.

Then, a slight warmth fell on her lips.
