Chapter 347: Keep Conscience
If he does something wrong and loses his life, it is a small matter
. Uncle Qian is most worried that he will harm other people's lives.
He cannot bear such a big sin.
He has no great ability and is not smart, but he has to keep his conscience.
"Hahaha..."
Uncle Qian's honesty made the emperor laugh.
He has been asked to take official positions many times, and rarely meets someone like Uncle Qian who refuses to take an official position.
The more this happens, the more the emperor wants to reward Uncle Qian.
Those who can do the job don't have an official position, what should he do with those officials who can't do the job?
He must recruit some capable and practical officials for his court, right?
"Don't worry, after you enter the Ministry of Agriculture, what you will do will not be much different from what you do now, and I will not make it difficult for you."
The emperor explained in this way, and Uncle Qian could understand.
He is indeed an official, but this official is in charge of farming.
He used to help the Crown Prince's wife farm, and now he helps the emperor farm.
"But..."
Uncle Qian looked at Zhu Xuntao in embarrassment. Even though the emperor is the master of the world,
he still wants to stay by the Crown Prince's wife's side and do things for her.
With the emperor's status, there are many people helping him farm, but the Crown Prince's wife used to have only himself by her side.
The emperor did not expect that compared with Zhu Xuntao, the official he was appointed to was not attractive.
It was also Uncle Qian's luck. First of all, the emperor was in an indescribably good mood today, so his temper was particularly good.
Under other circumstances, if someone had repeatedly refused the emperor, the emperor would have withdrawn his imperial edict.
Since ancient times, it has been difficult to become an official, so how could there be so many people who are unwilling to be officials. There is no
reason why the official position given by the emperor cannot be given, but the current situation is that people are fighting for it.
Secondly, Uncle Qian is Zhu Xuntao's man.
Chong Zhu Xuntao helped the emperor to fill the treasury, resettle the disaster victims, and restore spring farming.
When the emperor was with Zhu Xuntao, his temper was naturally good.
Zhu Xuntao cared about the people he valued, and the emperor was willing to give some face.
Until now, the emperor only felt that Uncle Qian was loyal, not serving two masters, and not being ignorant of good and evil and rebelling against his own grace.
"Don't worry, even if you really enter the Ministry
of Agriculture, with your ability as the Crown Prince's Consort, you will have many opportunities to work for the Crown Prince's Consorts in the future." "Didn't you see that all the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture were sent to this small village by me to learn from the Crown Prince's Consorts?"
"In the end, the ones who can really stay are the ones with ability."
"Those who are not capable will eventually return to where they came from."
"Others may not be able to learn well from the Crown Prince's Consorts, but I am not worried about you."
When the emperor said this, he was very clear in his mind.
Those who were driven back by Zhu Xuntao, no, they should be taken back by the prince,
not because they really didn't have the ability to learn, but because they didn't take Zhu Xuntao, a woman, seriously and
were unwilling to lower themselves to learn from Zhu Xuntao.
The same situation would never happen to Uncle Qian.
Uncle Qian was loyal to Zhu Xuntao.
"Well... I thank the emperor for his grace. Long live the emperor."
Knowing that he could still do things for Zhu Xuntao as before even though he had become an official, Uncle Qian happily accepted the emperor's reward.
How many men in this world don't want to be an official?
