Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

Seeing Qin Yunhe was a little stunned, Liu Zhangyin smiled and patted his shoulder: "But don't worry, Censor Hu should be back in a few days."

Qin Yunhe was still immersed in the shock of Tian Fen being transferred to the Experience Department. He was shocked but didn't know whether he should ask the reason.

Although they had been on duty together before, he couldn't say that he and Censor Liu were particularly familiar with each other.

Qin Yunhe nodded randomly, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "Master Liu, why was Master Tian transferred to the Experience Department?"

Liu Zhangyin stopped smiling and sighed, "Alas, a person in charge of the Ministry of Justice who was recommended by Mr. Tian has committed a crime..."

Qin Yunhe was silent.

It is inevitable for the censor to recommend officials, and it is really unfair to be implicated because of the recommendation.

"What did the boss do wrong?"

"The Ministry of Justice's Jieshizhong impeached the chief judge for not asking for recusation when he encountered a relative involved in a case during the autumn trial, and the case was finally decided to be suspended, which seems to be a perversion of justice."

Qin Yunhe sighed in his heart, what an unexpected disaster.

Those who can serve as officials in the Autumn Trial Office are all experienced and capable. When Tian Fen recommended him, he must have taken a fancy to this point of the person in charge. How could he have known that such a thing would happen?

"Originally, when the boss got into trouble, there were still people who spoke up for Lao Tian. But then someone reported that he had corresponded with his family while he was on probation, and that gave them something to talk about."

"Is there anything inappropriate in Mr. Tian's letter?"

I don’t know if Tian Fen was just unlucky or if someone did it for him, it was such a coincidence.

"The content is quite ordinary, nothing more than his youngest son's marriage and some things in his hometown. This old Tian is also not the first time to inspect the local area, how could he make such a mistake? What important matter can't he come back to tell?

This is because the Ministry of Personnel is compassionate and Your Majesty is lenient and did not punish him severely, but only transferred him to the Ministry of Experience."

With Tian Fen's rapid progress, he must have offended many people. If he were transferred to a local post, it would not be easy for him.

Being able to stay in the Censorate only cut off his path to promotion, which was indeed a recognition of his contributions.

But it’s a bit disheartening to see so many achievements being written off like that.

Both of them had official duties to attend to, so after chatting about these things, they returned to their respective seats.

Qin Yunhe returned to his seat, took out the memorial he had prepared earlier to recommend Fu Qingyun, looked at it again, and after slightly polishing it, he copied a new copy.

Later, I added my own views and ideas on the establishment and promotion of community schools.

Although there were risks in recommending him, it was his duty after all, and since he was in the court, he couldn't evade it. But He Xu... he really didn't dare to mention it anymore.

Regarding the memorial about false examination, Qin Yunhe took it out and read it carefully again to make sure there was nothing wrong.

A few days later, an eunuch came to summon His Majesty.

This time, the eunuch did not take him to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but to the study room of the Palace of Heavenly Purity. The emperor was sitting behind the desk in casual clothes, apparently processing memorials.

"Your Majesty, Qin Xun has arrived."

"Ah."

The emperor looked up, and Qin Yunhe hurried forward to pay his respects: "Your Majesty, I, Qin Wen, greet you. May your Majesty be well."

"Stand up," the emperor said, and then pointed casually at a stool on the side: "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I have already seen the list of this year's missions. It is really hard work to go there. Cutting out the corrupt officials and clearing away the evil will finally live up to my expectations."

Qin Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief.

"It is my duty to share your Majesty's worries."

Before leaving Beijing, he was still "Qin Yushi" and "Qin Qing", but when he came back he was called "Yunhe". It seems that the Censorate gave him a good performance evaluation and Your Majesty is also very satisfied.

"I read Qin Qing's memorial and it seems that he has some sympathy for the untouchables who took the exam for no reason?"

"It's not sympathy, but I just think it's a pity if talented low-class people can't be used by the court because of their background."

Qin Yunhe did put forward detailed suggestions for implementation in his memorial, and judging from the emperor's attitude, he did not seem dissatisfied with his suggestions.

Moreover, when he was handling the cases of cheating in exams during his inspection tour, he had never shown excessive sympathy to the untouchables who cheated in exams, so Qin Yunhe was not afraid of being blamed by the emperor for this.

“I think that all the people in the world should be used by Your Majesty, including the untouchables.

Along the way, I have seen many candidates who have good character and great talent, but they cannot serve the court just because of their background, which is really a pity.

I also know that there is a difference between the good and the bad. If the bad people are allowed to take the imperial examinations and enter the government, it may cause dissatisfaction among the scholars. So I thought that maybe we could set up another way to recruit talents, so that the bad people can be registered as good officials based on their merits and be used by the court.

It can not only inspire the untouchables and make contributions to the court, but also recruit more talented people for your majesty to use. At the same time, it may also be able to stabilize the people's hearts. "

"Well," the emperor nodded gently and did not continue the topic: "In Nanping County mentioned in Qin Qing's memorial, is the community school really effective?"

"Your Majesty, from what I have seen during my inspection tours of various prefectures and counties, the community schools in Nanping County are indeed complete and have some rules and regulations. Of course, after all, County Magistrate Fu Qingyun has only been in office for five years, so we can only say that we have seen initial results.

I talked with County Magistrate Fu and found that he had many ideas for promoting community schools that were worth a try. However, the county magistrate's authority was limited after all, so there were still some constraints in promoting it.

During this trip, I also specially inspected the current situation of community schools in various places. I feel that the reason why community schools are not promoted smoothly may be that the encouragement measures and the degree of attention are not enough. If we can increase the encouragement and clarify the rewards on top of the measures taken by Fu Qingyun, the people may be more willing to send their children to community schools. Once the education is passed, the customs of the people will be refined, and the local area will be more stable. And it can cultivate more talents for the court. "

The emperor also asked Qin Yunhe about the current situation of community schools in various places, as well as his thoughts and opinions on the construction and promotion of community schools.

"Educating the people has always been a matter of great concern to me. How come what you have said is exactly what I want?"

Afterwards, the emperor asked Qin Yunhe about what he had seen and heard during his inspection tour and talked about some of the long-standing problems in the local area.

It was not until the very end that Fu Qingyun's ability to govern the county was mentioned again.

"... Magistrate Fu is indeed quite talented in running the county, and his sympathy for the people is very rare. The local people are simple and honest, and the people live in peace and contentment, and they are full of praise for him."

It's not that Qin Yunhe praised him too much, but compared with other county magistrates, Fu Qingyun really stood out along the way.

The emperor did not say anything about Qin Yunhe's praise.

The assessment of officials is ultimately the responsibility of the Ministry of Personnel, and the rest will depend on how the Ministry of Personnel performs in their assessment.

After returning from the palace, Qin Yunhe continued to work at the Censorate. He also had to continue sorting out memorials related to official roads and post stations.

Soon, Qin Yunhe learned about his performance during his inspection tour: he was diligent, capable, upright and prudent, and got the highest score.

A few days later, Zhuzi, who had just received his salary, came back happily to see Qin Yunhe and said, "Sir, my salary has increased!"

Zhuzi was a registered official under the name of Qin Yunhe, so his salary was naturally related to Qin Yunhe's rank and salary.

Qin Yunhe always let him collect the salary himself.

"Sir, have you been promoted?"

Qin Yunhe laughed: "No, maybe it's just a salary increase."
