This Chen Fubai had the appearance of a timid old man.
"Chen Fubai is this widow's elder brother and a rare talent in the clan.”
Chen Fubai looked very wretched, and when he smiled, he didn't look like a good person.
The more Gao Lingfeng looked at Chen Fubai, the more satisfied he felt.
Chen Fubai, Chen Huainan!
One look and you could tell that he was an expert in corruption!
The Great Gan Lord Dynasty needed such a person!
The more Gao Lingfeng looked at Chen Fubai, the more satisfied he became.
Chen Fubai was scared by Gao Lingfeng's stare.
Gao Lingfeng coughed and said,"Since he is a talent recommended by the Empress Dowager, I must make good use of him."”
"Chen Xiancai, what official do you want?”
Chen Fubai was stunned for a moment.
Empress Dowager Chen was also stunned.
In the past, when she asked the Emperor for an official position, Gao Lingfeng was always impatient.
He only gave her a few insignificant officials to send her away.
He even said things like "the official position of the country cannot be given lightly" every day.
Why was he so generous today?
This Chen Fubai lowered his head and said," Your Majesty, I've had many imperial examinations. I usually like to read some miscellaneous books. I want to do something in the Ministry of Works."”
This was also the result of the discussion between Empress Dowager Chen and Chen Fubai.
The few relatives in front of him all had high standards but low abilities.
After the Empress Dowager recommended them to the Emperor, they were arranged to be officials in the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel.
These relatives of the Empress Dowager were not very cultured and did not have much standard.
Soon, he was played by the old foxes from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue.
Then, a few mistakes were found and reported to the emperor.
He was soon dismissed and sent home.
Thus, the Empress Dowager had learned her lesson this time.
It was more practical to ask for an official from the Ministry of Works.
The Ministry of Works was in charge of the country's construction, weapon forging, and warhorse breeding.
This was the department with the largest number of officials.
The officials here were technically bureaucrats.
Compared to the old-timers from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue.
The Ministry of Works was a little easier.
Moreover, although this Chen Fubai did not pass the imperial examination, he had read many miscellaneous books.
He could be considered an engineering talent.
Gao Lingfeng thought to himself,"
Ministry of Works?
The Ministry of Works is good!
This Chen Fubai is really not bad! The Ministry of Works was a good place for corruption!
As expected of the Empress Dowager's family. They are born to help me ruin the country's fate!
Gao Lingfeng patted Chen Fubai's shoulder and said,""Good job in the Ministry of Works. Beloved minister, do a good job. Zhen will not be stingy with your rewards!”
Chen Fubai became excited.
He wasn't a proper scholar for the imperial examinations.
She had been discriminated against for a lifetime.
Moreover, he liked to read miscellaneous books the most and was looked down upon by other scholars.
Empress Dowager Chen's family had started to rise ever since the late emperor was alive.
However, the family had never had any talents that could be brought to the table.
He had no choice but to push Chen Fubai out of his book.
During this period of time, Chen Fubai had been living in seclusion in the countryside. He was writing a random book based on his own reading experience.
The name of this book was called " Creation of Nature ".
Chen Fubai had compiled all the techniques recorded in the books of the past and wrote this encyclopedia of ancient machinery.
The family members brought the book to Empress Dowager Chen.
Only then did Empress Dowager Chen realize that there was really a talent in her family.
That was why he had to beg Gao Lingfeng.
However, he didn't expect it to go so smoothly this time. Gao Lingfeng directly promised Chen Fubai an official position.
Chen Fubai was extremely grateful.
He had suffered a lot from scholars in his life.
Gao Lingfeng, the emperor, actually respected him so much.
This made Chen Fubai very touched.
Gao Lingfeng thought for a moment.
He had to find a good spot for Chen Fubai!
The Ministry of Works had many departments. He thought for a moment and said,"How about this, Minister Chen, report to the cabinet first. I will write a letter to ask the chief assistant to arrange a position for you.”
"If Lord Lin is not satisfied with the arrangement, Minister Chen can tell me again!" Gao Lingfeng added. I'll definitely arrange a satisfactory seat for you!”
This time, Chen Fubai was crying tears of gratitude.
He knelt down and shouted long live. Even Empress Dowager Chen's eyes turned red.
"Emperor, aijia is really happy.”
After sending off the satisfied Chen Fubai, Empress Dowager Chen pulled Gao Lingfeng along and chatted with him.
The mother and son had a good relationship.
The barrier between mother and son disappeared.
Empress Dowager Chen kept Gao Lingfeng for a meal in the Palace of Compassion and even made a bowl of his favorite lotus seed soup.
The mother and son chatted for a while more before Gao Lingfeng returned to the Empress's palace.
Chen Fubai, who was holding Gao Lingfeng's personal edict, had just left the palace when he suddenly thought of something.
"I'm afraid it's rude of me to meet the chief officer empty-handed.”
"Why don't you bring the book I just finished over?”
"That's good, that's good. I heard that Lord Lin is well-read and is also a book lover.”
"Even though the [Crafting of Crafts] is a record of the Mo family's mechanisms and miscellaneous techniques, it is also my painstaking effort.”
After making up his mind, Chen Fubai returned home and took out the " Heavenly Craftsmanship " that he had just finished writing.
Then, he hurried to the cabinet.
Lin Jiancheng was just about to go home when he heard the scribe's report that someone was holding the emperor's handwritten letter to ask for an audience.
Lin Jiancheng hurriedly asked someone to invite this person over.
"Lord Chief! I, Chen Fubai, pay my respects to the chief assistant.”
Lin Jiancheng received Gao Lingfeng's letter.
An official?
The Empress Dowager's relative?
Lin Jiancheng was in a difficult position. This kind of person with connections was not very capable and always caused trouble.
However, Lin Jiancheng still decided to carry out the Emperor's order.
"Is there anything Lord Chen is good at?" he asked kindly.”
Chen Fubai held the book he had written," Heavenly Craftsmanship," over his head and said,"
"Milord, this is the 'Creation of Nature' written by this lowly official, please correct it!”
The scribe took the manuscript and handed it to Lin Jiancheng.
After flipping through a few pages, Lian Jiancheng immediately shouted,"Lord Chen is a genius! Please take a seat!"
