Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 541 Entrusted with important tasks

When the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shone on the magnificent palace, the morning court began.

The atmosphere in the court was solemn and dignified. All the civil and military officials stood in neat rows, waiting for the emperor's order.

At this moment, the powerful eunuch beside the head of the household, holding a bright yellow imperial edict, walked to the front of the hall with steady steps.

As the eunuch's unique and high-pitched voice sounded, every word in the imperial edict seemed to turn into thunder, exploding in the sky above the court: "In compliance with the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees..."

As the content of the imperial edict became clearer, all the civil and military officials in the hall widened their eyes with looks of astonishment on their faces.

They never imagined that the current emperor would think so highly of this new number one scholar!

After all, more than half a year had passed since the announcement of the new imperial examination results, and this number one scholar had yet to be appointed to an official position. Everyone thought that the emperor was not very satisfied with him.

However, at this moment, this sudden imperial edict completely overturned their previous speculations.

Of course, there are also many well-informed people in the court.

Those officials who knew the inside story understood that the reason why Gu Yan received this honor was because he assisted the government in solving two shocking cases in succession.

With such talents and achievements, it is natural that His Majesty favors him.

This young man will surely have a bright future with unlimited potential!

What’s more amazing is that this talented Gu Yan is only 19 years old this year!

For a time, many ministers in the court who had wives who were about to get married could no longer contain their excitement.

If we could recruit such a talented young man to be our disciple, wouldn’t it be a blessing for our family?

As a result, these ministers began to whisper to each other, and their eyes occasionally turned to Gu Yan who was standing in the crowd, with eagerness and anticipation in their eyes.

At this time, Gu Yan was also shocked by this unexpected reward and was unable to recover.

But he is a very intelligent man after all, and his reactions are extremely quick.

After being stunned for only a moment, he immediately came to his senses, knelt on the ground without hesitation, and thanked the emperor loudly: "Your Majesty, Gu Yan, thank you for your grace! Long live the emperor!"

When the morning court ended, when the ministers were about to approach Gu Yan to get close to him, they found that he had already been summoned by the current emperor.

Looking at Gu Yan's departing back, the ministers looked at each other, with complex expressions on everyone's face.

Some people are envious and jealous, some are secretly happy, and some are worried.

However, no matter what everyone feels in their hearts, one thing is beyond doubt - this Lord Gu, who is favored by the emperor, has become a dazzling new star in the court, and is rising at an astonishing speed!

The future court structure may also undergo tremendous changes because of him.

After Gu Yan went to court today to accept the appointment of an official position, he was called to the imperial study by the current emperor right after the court session. He then rushed back to his home in Shangjing without stopping. With his return, the emperor's rewards also came.

After seeing off the father-in-law who delivered the imperial edict, Gu Yan accompanied Gu Qingzhi for dinner and explained some important matters to her.

Just now, the emperor called him to the imperial study to ask him to help handle the case in Quzhou.

After all, he knows the whole story better.

The case involved a wide range of people, and the government was furious, intending to use this case to punish the perpetrators severely.
