Wang Ruoshui turned around slowly, and everyone in Guangling Prefecture felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Guangling Prefecture's edict immediately spoke respectfully, "Master Wang, this was an accidental injury. I, Guangling Prefecture, are willing to compensate you for your losses. Please don't argue with the innocent student."

"Innocent students?" Wang Ruoshui snorted coldly, "You still know that you are innocent students!"

"What is the purpose of the imperial court building a guild hall and conducting civil affairs? It is to allow you to compete in skills, enhance knowledge, exchange emotions, pass the test of spring, become the pillar of the country, and provide assistance for the continued revitalization of the country!"

"And what about you guys? You are making noises, insults and even fights here! If I hadn't happened to pass by by chance and heard the noise and didn't dare to come in to stop it, would it be possible for you to demolish the Guanglingzhou Guild Hall today?"

There was blood on his forehead, which added to his aura.

The proud stance, strong aura, serious expression, and sharp words instantly made everyone present wake up from their fanatical emotions and lowered their heads in shame.

He looked around and spoke softly, "Fortunately, it didn't cause a catastrophe. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a pity that your bright future would be ruined?"

"Don't worry, I will not pursue this matter. Moreover, if this matter comes to the ears of Lord Shangshu, as an official of the Ministry of Rites, although I am only a doctor in the Department of Ceremonies, I will try my best to protect you before Lord Shangshu. .So, everyone, stop making trouble and go back quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Jingyun immediately cupped his hands towards Wang Ruoshui, "Thank you, Mr. Wang."

The people from Sishui Prefecture also followed him and bowed, "Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Then, under the leadership of Xia Jingyun, everyone in Sishui Prefecture strode out of the Guangling Guild Hall.

Bai Yunbian also stepped forward, led everyone in Yunmengzhou, and bowed to Wang Ruoshui, "Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Then leave.

Longshouzhou, "Thank you very much, Mr. Wang."

Baiyang Prefecture, "Thank you very much, Mr. Wang."

Sixiangzhou, "Thank you very much, Mr. Wang."

As the teams left one after another, soon only the people from Guanglingzhou were left in the noisy lobby just now.

As for the old professor from the Imperial College, of course he was immediately protected by the steward of the guild hall.

Wang Ruoshui wiped the blood from his forehead and looked at the miserable people in Guangling Prefecture, whose robes were wet and there were still many tea leaves hanging in their hair. "Everyone, please take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he turned around and strode away.

"Wang Langzhong!"

The shouts of Guangling Prefecture's edict came from behind.

Wang Ruoshui stopped and turned around, only to see Guangling Prefecture's teaching minister leading Guangling Prefecture's disciples to bow deeply to him, "Thank you very much."

"It's our job." Wang Ruoshui said calmly, turned around and walked out of the hall.

At this time, the big shots on the second floor dared to walk out slowly and then left quickly.

Qin Yuwen stood by the window, waiting for those from the British government to leave first, and chuckled: "I didn't expect that the Ministry of Rites would have such a responsible doctor, it's rare!"

After a while, several waiters returned to the private rooms of the restaurant, compiled what they saw and heard into a book, copied it into a book, and then handed it to the leader Jin Zhong. The group walked out of the restaurant and mounted their horses. , quickly returned to Miyagi.

After everyone changed their clothes, Jin Zhong carefully inspected the book, put it in his arms, and walked quickly to the imperial study.

When he got to the door, he got the message, took small steps, came to the front of Emperor Chongning, and knelt down respectfully.

"Your Majesty, the servants and others went to the Guangling Guild Hall to watch the battle. The details have been recorded here. Your Majesty, please take a look."

Emperor Chongning nodded towards the personal eunuch beside him, and then asked, "Why did it take so long?"

"Today's events were quite turbulent, so it was delayed for some time."

Emperor Chongning did not ask any more questions. He knew that everything he wanted to know would be written in this book.

He unfolded the folder and read it carefully.

He sent people to watch the battle. Firstly, he wanted to know Xia Jingyun's true talents and knowledge. Secondly, he heard that this matter was quite a big fuss. He also wanted to see the situation of the current imperial examination candidates and make some preparations for the palace examination. Of course, the second Three is boring.

The prime minister and the central government help manage state affairs. The New Year is approaching, and although there are many things, there is little interest. The things I want to do on weekdays are not suitable for doing now. I can only watch these things to relieve boredom.

His eyes fell line by line, as if he was in the Guangling Guild Hall at that time.

Time passed silently, and in the imperial study room, only the incense was swaying and rising, showing that this was a living world.

Emperor Chongning finished reading the excerpt and said softly: "Xuanhu."

A man in black standing in the corner stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty."

"Look at what's written in this brochure. Are there any errors or omissions?"

The man in black took the folder and looked at it carefully.

Emperor Chongning also leaned against his bed and closed his eyes and pondered. He bent his right knee and tapped his fingers lightly on the knee.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is no omission or error. It is the same as what Heibingtai knows."

Emperor Chongning didn't even open his eyes, and said calmly: "The Minister of Rites, the Ceremony Department, Wang Ruoshui. Where is this person from?"

The personal eunuch on the side was just like a wooden sculpture, as if he had not heard what Emperor Chongning said.

The man in black was like a living dictionary of officialdom, "Your Majesty, this man's ancestral home is Yingshui County, Sixiang Prefecture. He was a Jinshi in the third year of Chongning. He was sent to Xianlin County as a county magistrate, and later he was promoted to the county magistrate. Returning to serve in the Ministry of Rites, he has successively served as Wailang, the host and guest director of the Rites Department, Wailang, the director of the Rites Department, and Lang Zhong, the ceremonial director. This person currently often goes to the Marquis of Jiang'an Mansion."

Emperor Chongning nodded slowly without comment, "Is Shi Zixian Shi Dingzhong's cousin?"

"Yes, his father Shi Dingxiao is the governor of Yanyang County in Guangling Prefecture, and he is the direct brother of Shi Dingzhong, the Minister of Rites."

"The British Duke's butler is also present, which is a bit interesting."

Emperor Chongning squinted his eyes, snorted softly, and waved his hand, "Go down!"

The man in black retreated, and the room seemed to become a little brighter.

"Gao Yi." Emperor Chongning ordered softly, "Gao Yi, Xuan Qin's Prime Minister, the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Rites will discuss matters."

The personal eunuch quickly agreed and went down to make arrangements. When he came back, he heard Emperor Chongning's arrangements again.

"Go and find the official secretary who recommended the Minister of Rites."

Soon, a small pile of folding notes was handed over.

About half an hour later, three important ministers came to the imperial study.

Looking at each other's identities, the three of them already understood why His Majesty summoned them.

Emperor Chongning had already read the batch of excerpts and said slowly: "Li Tianfeng of the Ministry of Rites succeeded the governor of Sishui Prefecture. Now the Ministry of Rites is still short of a minister. In the coming New Year, including the upcoming spring, the Ministry of Rites will have many things to do. Let’s fill in the gaps beforehand!”

Guo Renzhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, said: "What your Majesty said is true. The Ministry of Personnel is also working on recommending several candidates these days. This is the list that the Ministry of Personnel has initially drawn up. Please take a look at it."

He was worthy of being a man who could firmly hold the position of Minister in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. After saying this, he took out a note from his sleeve and asked the eunuch to help pass it over.

Emperor Chongning opened it and glanced at it, but surprisingly did not comment, "What do you think of the Ministry of Rites?"

Shi Dingzhong said quickly: "Wei Chen's opinion is that for the upcoming New Year, the series of sacrifices after the beginning of spring, and the Spring Festival, it is best to promote someone from the Ministry of Rites who can be used immediately, so as not to waste time. Wei Chen I think so."

"Your statement is good, and I agree with it." Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Chongning nodded.

Then he said directly: "Among the current doctors in the Ministry of Rites, who has served the most in various departments and has the most experience?"

Shi Dingzhong hesitated for a moment, and finally swallowed the words about recommending the doctor of the Department of Etiquette to succeed the Assistant Minister, "Currently, among the four doctors in the Department of Etiquette, Wang Ruoshui, the doctor of the Department of Ceremony, has served in the Host and Guest Department, the Department of Etiquette, and the Department of Ceremony. Among them, Feng Jieyi has served in the Catering Department and the Rites Department, while the other two have only served as managers in one department."

He mustered up his courage, "But Feng Jieyi's talent is far away."

"Just this Wang Ruoshui! What do Qin Xiang and Guo Qing think?"

Qin Xiang immediately raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, you are wise!"

Seeing that His Majesty had decided to promote him from within the Ministry of Rites, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel could not intervene, so he said directly: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Your Majesty." Shi Dingzhong wanted to struggle again.

"Ahem." Qin Xiang coughed twice, causing Shi Dingzhong to wake up immediately and said quickly: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Emperor Chongning didn't seem to notice, and he hummed, "Then let the central government draft the decree and use the seal. Get the matter done before the New Year seal, and everyone can live a good New Year with peace of mind."

"I obey the decree!"

"Is there anything else? We're all here, let's discuss it and send out the seal before the end of the year."

After a while, the three important ministers left.

After walking out of the imperial study, Shi Dingzhong cupped his hands towards Prime Minister Qin and thanked him, "Thank you, Prime Minister Qin, for reminding me just now."

Qin Xiang smiled slightly, "Your Majesty has obviously made up his mind a long time ago. It would be better for Minister Shi not to let his selfishness blind him!"

In the imperial study, Emperor Chongning opened the envelope and took a look at it. He couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw some plot points.

"That's all, this junior has worked so hard, so let's just give him some lucky money."

He stretched out and said, "Gao Yi, please show me to Changle Palace."
