With the shout of the eunuch Sili, Li Fan and others who were waiting outside the palace entered the palace and went to the palace.

They once again passed by the National Humiliation Stone in front of the Shame Hall.

But now, everyone's mood is different.

Li Fan took the lead and followed him, Liu Jingchan, Chen Youting and others in turn.

He walked straight into the hall.

When they walked into the hall, all the officials turned their heads and looked at Li Fan and others.

Their eyes all fell on Li Fan.

Since the announcement of the imperial list, all officials have gradually accepted this reality: Li Fan is unstoppable.

Even though they were mentally prepared, when they saw Li Fan walking into the hall, many officials still felt a little unrecognizable.

Many times have been criticizing Li Fan before. When Li Fan offended the emperor and fell to a trough, they were even more proud.

But now, Li Fan is finally here.

All the officials were silent.

On the dragon throne, Emperor Jianye looked at Li Fan and others lightly, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Didn’t he wait for a long time on this day?

"Publicate the edict!"

He waved his hand.

Next to him, Qiao Baimei immediately launched the imperial imperial edict and chanted loudly: "The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the imperial edict said: Now that the imperial examination has been completed, I will be granted the title of the son according to the saint's rules and set the position as follows."

Qiao Baimei paused.

The hall was silent, and everyone was waiting, waiting for what kind of official position Li Fan would be appointed! It is conceivable that what kind of official position Li Fan was awarded at this moment directly related to how great the storm he could cause in the future! While everyone was waiting, Qiao Baimei's voice finally sounded: "Li Fan from Yangzhou won three yuan in a row, and his strategy was outstanding, hitting the current disadvantages. His strategy was very useful. He was specially promoted to the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice and also served as the chief of the Hanlin Academy;" As soon as the words came, the whole hall was shocked! At this moment, all officials in the court raised their eyes in unbelievable ways, looking at the dragon throne incredible, and everyone's face was filled with an incredible look! Ministry of Justice... Secretary of Justice?

Hanlin Academy...Chief?

!At this moment, they were all lost! Deadly silent! There was a dead silence in the hall! The content of the imperial edict read by Qiao Baimei was like a blow of thunder, which completely shocked everyone.

"The Minister of Justice... the second-rank Dayuan, Li Fan, actually reached the top in one step?

!”

Someone murmured in disbelief.

"The prominent position of one of the six ministries means that the emperor would hand over the Ministry of Justice to him... let him take charge of the law of Daxi?

penalty?

Prison?”

Someone looked dazed! "Chief of Hanlin Academy, doesn't this mean that the way to select talents in Shilin will be in Li Fan's hands?

How can this be...how can it be!"

An old official felt dizzy in front of him, and the sky seemed to be falling! Everyone was puzzled by the officials! The emperor's appointment of Li Fan was obviously far beyond their imagination! They had also speculated how the emperor would reuse Li Fan.

However, among all of them, the boldest imagination was to grant Li Fan a first-level official position.

That is the limit, it has surpassed all previous examples, and it can be said to be an exception! Moreover, it is based on Li Fan's previous censor.

Who would have thought that Emperor Jianye’s work was so big?

He is directly the Secretary of the Shangshu! A true and powerful figure! In the court, except for the three major cabinet masters, it can be said that no one can suppress it, and it is ranked alongside the other five Secretary of the Shangshu.

Li Fan truly entered the core of power and grasped power! Power that countless people can’t reach.

Moreover, there is also the chief of the Hanlin Academy.

The Hanlin Academy is holding the imperial examination in its hands! He handed over the imperial examination to Li Fan?

With Li Fan’s personality, what kind of things will he do?

It can be imagined that the title of Li Fan at this moment is just the beginning. As long as the Hanlin Academy is in hand, Li Fan will grow into a towering tree, and his disciples and officials will be spread all over the court and the country.

The tower is close to the water and get the moon first. That position is so convenient to cultivate power. You can easily gather the scholars of the world and select the people you want.

The more I think about it, the heavier the hearts of all officials! Emperor Jianye was determined to value Li Fan and use it without any scruples! However, for a moment, no one dared to speak out.

Even if I am dissatisfied and unhappy, I dare not say it.

——Many officials here have had "scars". Twenty-six years ago, when Emperor Jianye valued Wu Tiangu, countless people in the court opposed it. At that time, Emperor Jianye gave Wu Tiangu Shangfang sword, which made the court and the country scared.

Twenty-one years ago, Wu Tiangu was defeated and the court was in turmoil. Emperor Jianye valued Li Wen. At that time, countless people criticized Li Wen. Similarly, Li Wen held the Emperor's Sword and killed countless Dayuan! Now, Emperor Jianye's positioning of Li Fan is another Wu Tiangu and another Li Wen?

No one knows.

No one dares to gamble.

They can only endure and be silent.

Seeing the expressions of the officials changing drastically, Qiao Baimei also showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had a little more pride in the content of the imperial edict he had recited. He immediately read: "Liu Jingchan of Yizhou has extraordinary literary talent and outstanding knowledge, and is specifically a member of the fourth rank of the Ministry of Personnel; "Chen Youting of Yangzhou has a comprehensive thought and extraordinary insight, and is specifically a member of the fourth rank of the Ministry of Rites; "Gu Ren of Yangzhou has a heart of people's livelihood, plans and common people, and is specifically a member of the fourth rank of the Ministry of Revenue; "Zhang Shihuai of Yangzhou has a practical and capable strategy, and is specifically a member of the fourth rank of the Ministry of Works; "The successive sounds made the officials stunned again.

At this moment, the officials could no longer sit still and were in agitation.

"It's fine if Li Fan was granted an official position in an extraordinary position. Why can these people be directly named as officials of the fourth rank?

This is not an exception, this is simply out of line!”

"These people who support Li Fan or Li Fan's disciples have been placed in the most advanced position in each department, except for the Ministry of War..." "Li Fan led a minister of his own, and his people were spread all over the four departments. Heaven and the Emperor wanted to create a powerful Li Fan in the court and the people?

!”

The faces of all officials really changed! The emperor promoted Li Fan to the Minister of Justice. Even though the officials were unhappy, they dared not speak out.

At this moment, Emperor Jianye's heart was obvious, but they could not accept it.

This is a naked foundation for helping Li Fan lay a solid foundation for power.

In the court, who has the influence of all departments except for Li Wen, Lin Jianshen and Changsun Bubai?

No! Even the existing Ministers of Works, Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Revenue and other ministers cannot have too much influence in other departments.

But now Li Fan has it.

As soon as he took office, he had it! The emperor not only made him the Minister of Justice, but also made him the strongest among the six ministries! It can be said that his status is second only to the three major cabinet masters in the cabinet.

In addition, he had the identity of a censor and the sword of the emperor in his hand... What kind of power is this?

This is the power of killing Buddha when you see the Buddha, and killing god when you see the god!! Even Li Wen, the old eyes were a little surprised, and he couldn't help but murmur: "The Lord... I'm really bold!"

Wen Baishan felt even more stormy waves rolled up in his heart! He looked at Li Fan's back and felt extremely complicated! From meeting Li Fan in Yangzhou to Li Fan's journey to this point, it was only a year... Year after year, from a disgraceful useless son-in-law to a powerful Minister of Justice in the court?

Such speed is so terrible. Who believes it if you tell me it?

!It can be imagined that the entire empire would be shocked and nervous because of this incident! In a trance, he remembered the first battle with Li Fan when he was in Donglin County in order to intercept the letters sent back from the Northwest Front.

At that time, Li Fan was just a white man and dared to plot against him, who was the second-rank, and the current Nine Five Master... In the court, there were scattered discussions one after another, and all the officials could not sit still. They looked ugly! "Master, I have a report!"

Finally, a minister couldn't help but stand up. It was the censor Gu Mingcheng! He bowed deeply and said, "The emperor, this positioning and appointment as an official is inconsistent with our court's example. It has never happened, and has never happened!

Once this is the case, what will happen to the future generations?

Please think twice!”

He knelt down and asked! At this moment, even if he risked being blamed by Emperor Jianye, he had to object! Once Li Fan had such power, they would be in real danger. Even the Chunming Palace would probably be subject to unimaginable impact! The pattern of the government and the opposition would be changed directly.

Suddenly, all the officials followed and knelt down! "Please think twice!"

"Please think twice!"

"Please think twice!"

Everyone spoke in unison! Among the officials, only Wen Baishan, Li Wen and a few others did not move, and were still standing.

——Since the founding of the Daxi Kingdom, there have been unprecedented cases of being directly awarded the imperial examination and being directly awarded the fourth rank of official positions.
Chapter completed!
