Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

"Why did Your Majesty grant Zhang Zhuangyuan the post of Wannian Ling?"

"The county magistrate is the parent official of a place, and the Wannian magistrate is at the feet of the emperor, in charge of half of the squares and cities in Chang'an City."

"Although Zhang Dun is the number one scholar, I recognize his talent, but I think it is extremely inappropriate to grant him the post of Ten Thousand Years Order without getting an inch of merit!"

"My minister agrees!"

Du Yan's tone was decisive.

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

The censors shouted loudly.

Right, that is it!Zhang Dun regained his composure, and looked at them with joy, he was right to join me!

It's better to say that what I said is worthless, and let Li Erlang, who is sitting on the throne, know that I am not worthy of being a ten thousand year order!

Better get me out of the palace!

For others, it is a great honor to be able to become the ten thousand year order of the fifth rank, and it is also reasonable to cry bitterly in front of all the officials.

However, Zhang Dun is different!

He didn't want to be an official, he was cast!

Now he has figured it out, there is a big problem with this year's imperial examination, this is because someone is setting up a trick to ask him to jump into it.

And this person is likely to be his father-in-law.

Up to now, Zhang Dun still hasn't figured out a little bit, how did his father-in-law persuade the current emperor to agree to set up the imperial examination?

The father-in-law is too face-saving.

For him, he can persuade Li Erlang!

Soon, Zhang Dun didn't think about it any more, seeing that Li Erlang who was sitting behind the screen didn't say a word for a while, obviously thinking.

It seems that the heat is not enough!Zhang Dun felt ruthless, took a step forward, bowed to the end and said loudly: "The minister seconded the proposal!"

"???"

The civil and military officials in the second class were looking at Wei Zheng, Du Yan and the censors who refuted Zhang Dun, and at the same time pricked up their ears to wait for the emperor's intention.

Suddenly they saw Zhang Dun jumping out and seconding Wei Zheng and the others, they couldn't help being dumbfounded for a while.

Wei Zheng, Du Yan is joining you now.

Why do you also second it?

Isn't that you participating in yourself?

Are you a tiger?

Facing the weird gazes from around him, Zhang Dun didn't care at all. What do they know? Do you think anyone is willing to be an official?

And it's still a ten thousand year order!

That's the parent officer of the whole place!

As parents, they worry about their children from morning till night.

Not to mention the county magistrate, that's not a child's mind!

Just thinking about it makes me feel tired!

"Hahahaha!"

Suddenly, a burst of hearty laughter sounded from behind the screen.

The civil and military officials couldn't help raising their heads, looking at the figure behind the screen.

Li Er was sitting on the dragon chair behind the screen, playing with Zhang Dun playfully with his eyes, what a boy, he even participated in it when he became so ruthless.

But is it useful for you to participate in yourself?

I have spent so much time and effort for you, and I am about to succeed, can I stop because of the participation of ministers?

Not to mention Wei Zheng, Du Yan, and a group of censors, even if all the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty stood up to participate in the performance today, that would not work!

Today, I'm going to make a judgment call!

Li Er suppressed his smile and said calmly:

"I understand the thoughts of all my lovers."

"You dear ones feel that although Zhang Dun is the champion of the new division this year, he has not made any contribution to the imperial court. Giving him the official position of Wannian Order today is harmful to etiquette and law."

"However, today I will tell you clearly!"

"Zhang Dun has made great contributions to the country!"

"It is also because of his meritorious service that I have awarded him the post of Wannian Ling!"

Contribute to the country?The civil and military officials were stunned for a while, when did it happen?Why don't we ministers know?

Zhang Dun's heart skipped a beat, it's broken, don't it be that matter, right? !

Sure enough, the next sentence that came from behind the screen made Zhang Dun feel as if he had been struck by lightning.

"My love friends don't know what Zhang Dun has done."

The civil and military officials immediately pricked up their ears and looked at Zhang Dun with curiosity that could not be concealed in their eyes.

Li Er said slowly:

"Sun Fujia, the servant of the household department, cried to me every day in front of me, saying that the household department has no money."

"Today I'm going to tell you that the treasury has money now, 170 million guan!"

Hearing this, all civil and military officials were shocked, especially the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs, who raised their heads suddenly and looked at Li Er behind the screen in disbelief.

170 guan?

Where did the money come from?

How come those of us who manage the treasury don't know anything about it?

Among the civil and military officials, the Minister of the Household Department couldn't stand anymore, he walked out quickly, and said in a joyful tone: "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

Li Er said lightly: "I am the Son of Heaven, you have no jokes!"

After finishing speaking, he said with a smile in his voice:

"You must also be curious about where the money comes from."

"I will tell you clearly that the money was donated to the imperial court by the five surnames Qiwang!"

The money donated by the five surnames and Qiwang to the court?Those Patriarchs with Five Surnames and Seven Wangs are crazy?

The civil and military officials opened their eyes wide, unbelievable!

They have too much money to spend?Or is the money so hot that they keep throwing it out?

But what's wrong with throwing it away, throwing it at the court?Isn't this a meat bun beating a dog?

"Your Majesty, why are they?" Wei Zheng couldn't help asking.

Li Er continued: "It's all because of Zhang Dun, who came up with a trick to record merits with stones!"

Changsun Wuji's whole body was shaken, "Let the stone remember the merits?"

How does this word hurt your ears?

Changsun Wuji looked at Zhang Dun unkindly, boy, did I take the blame for you a few days ago?

He still remembers that out of nowhere, Qiwang of five surnames approached him, pointed at his nose and cursed at him!

He was still confused at the beginning, the old lady was sitting at home, no one offended, why scold the old man? !

The original problem is here!

Chapter 143 I could have knighted him, but he didn't want to

Li Er just talked about the method of recording merit by slapping stones, but didn't go into details.

After all, it's embarrassing!

Civil and military officials don't even care about the specific process of the method of recording merit by Le Shi, they only care about the 170 million guan!

Sun Fujia excitedly said: "My Tang treasury is now extremely empty, and I can hardly pay the salaries of hundreds of officials. With this 170 million guan, it can not only solve urgent needs, but also solve many things!"

"Your Majesty, where is the money?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the 170 million coins are not in the treasury!"

The household ministers shouted one after another.

Look at how anxious you are!Li Erle grinned from ear to ear, and said, "170 million guan, I put it in the inner palace, and will put all the money into the treasury soon."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Civil and military officials bowed to the end one after another, and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, this is a great achievement." Sun Fujia said loudly: "Zhang Zhuangyuan has this merit, and I will grant him the post of Ten Thousand Years Order, and I will be convinced!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

The household ministers said loudly one after another.

Wei Zheng, Du Yan, and the censors who stood up were speechless.

Are you talking?Why don't you talk!Zhang Dun is heartbroken, you are the censors, are you silent at this juncture?

"It doesn't stop there."

At this moment, Li Er's voice resounded in the hall again:

"Zhang Zhuangyuan's contribution to the imperial court is not just the 170 million guan."

besides?The civil and military officials were stunned for a while, and looked at Zhang Dun in surprise.

No more, that's all there is, there's no place left!

Zhang Dun shook his head and waved his hands vigorously at them.

Suddenly thinking of something, his face changed slightly.

No, there seems to be another one!

Zuixianlou Department Store!

Zhang Dun's heart trembled. He remembered that in order to deal with the five surnames and seven hopes, he provided the second uncle with a lot of methods for making Zuixianlou Department Store.

In order to allow him to enter the court as an official and persuade the current emperor, the old man set up a big hole in the imperial examination.

On what basis?

How did you convince the present day?

Just get 170 million guan from Wuxing Qiwang?

This is far from enough!

Based on this matter, at most seven ranks will be stopped!

It is absolutely impossible to be a fifth-rank official!

But today, when he was appointed an official, the emperor directly awarded him the post of Ten Thousand Years Order!

Is the Son of Heaven a fool?Absolutely not, among the emperors in the past dynasties, which one is not the master who does not see the rabbit or scatter the eagle?

In other words, Li Erlang, who was sitting behind the screen, got the department store in Zuixianlou, and knew what those things could bring to the court.

This is the reason why he is able to worship the five-rank ten thousand year decree today!

The problem is coming.

How did Li Erlang obtain the method of making Zuixianlou Department Store?

Uncle!

The face of the second uncle appeared in Zhang Dun's mind, and he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. I treat you as my own uncle, but you sold me?
