After leaving the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, Fang Xiaoru walked along the corridors of the palace in a state of confusion.
He did not recover from his shock for a long time. He was completely dumbfounded by the Emperor.
How could he not be stunned!
Ever since his audience with the Emperor, his mood had been like the Yellow River. It had nine twists and turns, ups and downs, surging back and forth!
He had thought that after waiting for ten years, the bitter end had finally come and the day when the emperor would appreciate and put him in an important position!
For this day, he had prepared all the knowledge he had for the Emperor's examination. However, who would have thought that the Emperor would not mention a single word about poetry, songs, and Confucian classics?
As soon as he entered the palace, he was caught by the emperor for yesterday's matter and was scolded by him!
He had been scolded by the Emperor until he was badly injured and his mentality had collapsed. He had thought that he had no hope of becoming an official. He had even prepared to be neglected by the Emperor for another ten years!
However, he did not expect that the Emperor would appoint him as the Henan Provincial Censor. He even gave him the power to act as he pleased. It could be said that he was entrusted with an important position!
However, he had just been entrusted with an important task by the Emperor. Who would have thought that he would offend the Emperor and cause the Emperor to be unhappy because of a wrong sentence?
Fortunately, the Emperor did not blame him too much. After a few words of reprimand, he let him leave.
However, this made him anxious again.
After all, the Emperor had just appointed him as the Henan Provincial Censor. It was just a verbal order and had not been written on the imperial edict. Moreover, he had just angered the Emperor.
No one knew if the Emperor would retract his order or if he would do something else.
Fang Xiaoru let out a long sigh. His face was dark and gloomy, and he was filled with regret.
He didn't know why he was so arrogant just now!
Why did he have to pretend to be smart and answer the Third Imperial Grandson? If he honestly thanked him and accepted the edict, wouldn't everything be fine?
But if it wasn't Zhu Yunwen, who could it be?
Could it really be Zhu Yunyan?
"Xizhi!"
"Brother Xizhi!"
"Brother!"
Fang Xiaoru was walking along the corridor when she suddenly heard a few shouts.
He looked up and saw four people sitting in a pavilion not far away. When they saw him walking over, they all stood up and welcomed him.
He recognized all four of them.
Among them, the white-haired elder was the best friend of his master, Song Lian. He was the great scholar of the dynasty, the Hanlin scholar, Liu Sanwu.
The other two people who were about the same age as him were his best friend, Huang Zicheng, a scholar from the Imperial Academy.
The other was his cousin, his aunt's son, Lu Yuanzhi, the editor of the Imperial Academy.
Although he did not know the other person, from the company of Liu Sanwu, Huang Zicheng, and Lu Yuanzhi, who were obviously much younger than him and looked youthful, and the python robe that the youth was wearing, he was probably the person he had guessed wrongly!
Third Emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen!
"Fang Xiaoru greets Your Highness!”
Fang Xiaoru stepped forward and bowed to the youth in the python robe.
Of course, it didn't matter even if he guessed the wrong identity this time. No matter if it was Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunyan or anyone else, who wasn't the imperial grandson!
Why was he so silly just now?
"Mr. Fang, please stand up!"
However, Zhu Yunwen did not dare to accept Fang Xiaoru's gift and quickly raised his hands to help Fang Xiaoru up.
"Mr. Fang is too polite. Yunwen, I don't deserve it!”
"Mr. Fang and my father are from the same sect. Yun Wen salutes Mr. Fang!”
As soon as he helped Fang Xiaoru up, Zhu Yunwen immediately bowed to Fang Xiaoru.
Liu Sanwu, Huang Zicheng, and Lu Yuanzhi couldn't help but nod in approval when they saw Zhu Yunwen being so polite.
Fang Xiaoru was surprised, and a bitter smile appeared in his eyes. He quickly helped Zhu Yunwen up." Your Highness, the imperial grandson, has defeated me!"”
After that, he continued to bow to Liu Sanwu." Student Fang Xiaoru greets Scholar Liu!”
Liu Sanwu smiled and nodded." There's no need to be so polite. Please get up!"”
After greeting Liu Sanwu, Fang Xiaoru continued to bow to Huang Zicheng and Lu Yuanzhi.
Huang Zicheng raised his hand to stop him." Brother Xizhi, you and I don't have to be so polite!”
"In the palace, etiquette cannot be abandoned!"
However, Fang Xiaoru was not willing to give in. He insisted on bowing to the two of them.
Huang Zicheng and Lu Yuanzhi both knew Fang Xiaoru's character. They looked at each other and shook their heads with a bitter smile. They had no choice but to accept it and then return Fang Xiaoru's bow one after another.
After greeting him, Lu Yuanzhi quickly asked,""Elder brother, why did His Majesty summon you today?”
The reason why they did not disperse after the court session ended and waited for Fang Xiaoru here was that they were anxious to know the situation of Fang Xiaoru entering the palace to meet the emperor.
Fang Xiaoru shook his head with a bitter smile.
Seeing Fang Xiaoru's expression, everyone's expression darkened and their eyes darkened.
Zhu Yunwen was especially shocked and gritted her teeth.
As expected!
As expected, he had guessed correctly!
Fang Xiaoru had indeed been tricked by that guy in front of his grandfather!
Seeing the atmosphere suddenly become so awkward and heavy, Huang Zicheng turned around and smiled awkwardly. He comforted her,
"I think it must be because Brother Xizhi has been on the road for days and is tired. That's why he asked for advice from the emperor. He didn't perform well and was temporarily frustrated. In the future, we will recommend him to His Majesty. I believe that with Brother Xizhi's great talent, he will be appreciated and reused by His Majesty!”
Hearing Huang Zicheng's words, Lu Yuanzhi immediately came back to his senses. He smiled and comforted Fang Xiaoru,
"Elder brother, don't worry. In a few days, as long as His Majesty is pleased, this foolish brother will definitely vouch for elder brother again!”
Zhu Yunwen and Liu Sanwu were also prepared to say a word or two of comfort.
However, before he could say anything, Fang Xiaoru laughed and shook his head." You've misunderstood me!”
"It's not that His Majesty did not reward me for entering the palace to meet the Saint!”
"His Majesty has given me the position of Henan Province's supervisory censor and ordered me to monitor the disaster in Henan Province. He has given me the right to act as I please!”
“......”
Hearing Fang Xiaoru's words, everyone's expressions changed and they were shocked.
No one expected Fang Xiaoru to suddenly make a 180-degree turn and release a big bomb!
Henan Province's supervisory censor was only a seventh-grade official position. Moreover, there were as many as ten people who held this position. Compared to them, it was not considered a high official position!
However, if he added the phrase 'act according to one's consideration', it would be completely different!
That meant that Fang Xiaoru was patrolling Henan on behalf of Heaven, and seeing Fang Xiaoru was like seeing a king!
With this monstrous authority, Fang Xiaoru could kill all the officials in Henan!
Even the Third Minister, who was an official of a territory, had to be respectful when he saw Fang Xiaoru!
This was a farmer in the morning, and the emperor in the evening!
Ascending to the heavens in one step!
