Chapter 1476: Shameless

The most important thing for the ancients to keep etiquette was to be grateful and repay, which involved the issue of human morality. If you could not even do this, there would be moral flaws.

Now the matter in Shunyi County has been completely resolved, but those Juren in Shunyi dare not continue to stay in Shunyi. They all entered the capital overnight under the escort of officers and soldiers.

Early the next morning, many people made an appointment to come to the Ye family, hoping to express gratitude to Ye Chunqiu, who went to Shunyi County to rescue them in person.

Ye Chunqiuxin knew that these people would be pillars of the Ming Dynasty, whether they would be high school or not in the future. Not to mention Jinshi, even if they were Juren, they would be a local tyrant and the real ruling class of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, they were sincere in their intentions to come to the door. Ye Chunqiu has never been a person who likes to put on high airs, so he didn't hesitate and said to Tang Bohu: "Let's go and see you."

Leading to the middle gate by Tang Bohu, Ye Chunqiu saw many juren with black scarves and Confucian shirts outside the gate looking forward to him. Many passers-by didn't know what happened, so he stopped to watch.

When these juren saw Ye Chunqiu coming out, they immediately bowed together and said with a loud bang: "The grace of saving lives is unforgettable."

Although Ye Chunqiu was so happy to save his life, how could he accept such a great gift in public? He quickly helped up a juren in the head and said, "Your Majesty has put in a lot of effort in it. If you want to thank you, thank Your Majesty. Your Majesty cares about your safety. Although he is the emperor, he goes deep into the tiger's den. Wouldn't it be even more important to make a contribution?"

If Zhu Houzhao didn't become the emperor in the Forbidden City at other times, but instead sneaked out to show off his heroes, everyone might be scolding the emperor for making trouble, but it would have involved scholars themselves, which would have become a righteous act.

The juren in charge said, "Yes, yes, this is something unprecedented. We are grateful in our hearts and will definitely seek to repay us in the future."

Ye Chunqiu saw too many people and was not convenient to greet him, saying, "You are in the capital, and you will have many opportunities to move around in the future. Now that the spring exam is about to come, you should study with peace of mind. It is not too late to come and visit the door after the spring exam. At that time, I will open the middle door and wait for you to come."

Everyone laughed awkwardly, but actually knew that they were coming a little pretentiously, so they said one after another: "The students came here just to say thank you. The family is unattainable, so how dare you come."

In fact, Ye Chunqiu doesn't like scholars to be polite to each other, but to some extent, this culture has long been deeply rooted in the blood and can't change it anymore, so he had to say: "You are rude to say this, I am also a scholar. How can there be any difference between high and low? They are all under the saints. After the Spring Examination, if you don't come, I will carry you in the sedan chair at eight."

Everyone laughed and then said goodbye one by one.

Tang Bohu couldn't help but be shocked behind Ye Chunqiu. When they left, he couldn't help but say, "So many juren, grandpa, in the blink of an eye, you will accept more than 400 lackeys under your sect."

The lackeys under the disciple are not insulting words, but jokes among scholars.

Ye Chunqiu pretended to be angry and said, "You talk a lot, please find a way to record the names of these people. After a few days, after the Spring Examination, the list will be revealed and you will ask them to sit there. This is a fate after all, don't seem too distant."

Tang Bohu understood what Ye Chunqiu meant and said with a smile: "Yes! Is the Duke going to court?"

Ye Chunqiu said, "I'll go to the palace for a walk."

After saying that, someone asked someone to ask for a crane cart, sat in the cart, and rushed all the way to the Meridian Gate, and as usual, they would meet in the warm room.

Now that winter has passed, it is early spring. New branches have grown in the trees in the palace, and green leaves have emerged on the branches. The spring is full of spring, so it is so freehand.

However, the ground dragon in the warm gaze was still burning. As soon as he entered, Ye Chunqiu felt a wave of heat coming towards him.

Ye Chunqiu looked at it and saw several cabinet ministers also there. As soon as he entered, Li Dongyang sat there and said, "Chunqiu, come."

It turned out that His Majesty was still in the harem and had ordered someone to invite him. When facing the four pavilions and the first three, Ye Chunqiu was in awe, but Ye Chunqiu felt very disgusted with Yang Tinghe. He went forward and bowed to Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and Wang Hua. When it was Yang Tinghe's turn, he didn't even lit his head, and said to Li Dongyang: "I wonder what Mr. Li has to give?"

Who can't understand Ye Chunqiu's performance? Li Dongyang saw it but didn't show any words, just said, "Hey, it's too dangerous. It's a blessing to be safe and sound this time. But next time, neither Your Majesty nor Duke Zhenguo, you must not put yourself in danger again. You are young, of course you are brave, but your Majesty's daughter, are you Ye Chunqiu still the little Hanlin you were back then? You should not be like this with a high position and a powerful person."

He advised him kindly, and of course Ye Chunqiu was grateful and said hurriedly: "It's Chunqiu's fault. You must think twice before you act."

Li Dongyang nodded at this moment.

After a while, Zhu Houzhao arrived. Zhu Houzhao seemed energetic today, but just sat down and Xie Qian took the lead and said: "Report to Your Majesty, the old man has been ill recently. I would like to ask Your Majesty to ask for another exam for the Spring Examination."

Xie Qian is straightforward, but sometimes he is quite stingy. A few days ago, he quarreled with Yang Tinghe and said he was unwilling to take the exam. Although he was just angry at that time, he didn't expect to remember now that he was beaten to death and refused to preside over the spring exam.

Of course, this also shows that Xie Qian is relatively indifferent to power and position, which is easy to understand. He was a veteran of three dynasties, so he naturally didn't care about presiding over the spring exam this time.

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, her brows frowned and said hesitantly: "Ah, who will be the chief examiner?"

Li Dongyang remained silent. Wang Hua was a gentleman, so he naturally could not come out to take power with shame at this time.

However, at this time, Yang Tinghe said, "Your Majesty, the old man is confused. Your Majesty is in Shunyi. The old man is not careful. In order to save Your Majesty, he actually told Duke Cheng to lead his troops to attack the city. If Your Majesty makes any mistakes, I will never be able to redeem even if I die. The guilty minister should make meritorious contributions to the crime and be at ease. Please ask Your Majesty to preside over this spring exam."

Ye Chunqiu was beside him, and couldn't help but curse silently: This old guy is really shameless, and few people can match this ability to take advantage of the situation!

He actually used this reason to strive to preside over the spring exam, and it seemed as if it was very difficult to be the chief examiner of the spring exam, but it became a contribution to him.
