The discussion below started again.
"That's great!"
"Mr. Li is mature and steady after all... He is only in his early twenties and has already reached the fifth rank, which is already quite good."
"That's right! This person has a bright future..."
Emperor Jing frowned and asked, "It's less, right?"
Li Yansong was a little surprised. Less? This is quite a lot! He was promoted twice and directly entered the Ministry of Revenue. He must have a bright future!
Then he asked, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Jing said solemnly: "I once talked with Fang Zhengyi and told him that if anyone can solve this problem, he can be made a marquis and appointed prime minister!"
"So I want to grant him a title, and as for the fiefdom... I will give him Taoyuan County."
"Not only that... The prince also went to Taoyuan County and gained a lot. I think this man has some unconventional ideas, which may be helpful to the prince, so I want him to join the Zhanshi Mansion and serve as the Junior Zhanshi!"
The so-called Zhanshi Mansion consisted of only two members, the Zhanshi and the Junior Zhanshi, who were dedicated to teaching the crown prince. Usually, they were concurrently appointed by Hanlin academicians. There were very few full-time members, and there was no precedent for someone like Fang Zhengyi being promoted directly to the Zhanshi Mansion.
If the prince ascends the throne, serving in the Zhanshi Mansion is equivalent to being the prince's teacher, commonly known as: imperial teacher.
The three senior officials of the current cabinet, Zheng Qiao, Li Yansong, and Zhang Dongxiang, all served concurrently as officials in the Zhanshi Mansion.
Therefore, he paid more attention to his duties in the Zhanshi Mansion.
"No!" Zhang Dongxiang stood up.
"Your Majesty! Although Fang Zhengyi has made great contributions, the reward is too much and violates etiquette. I suggest that he be given a fifth-rank rank."
"This person is still young and not much different from the prince. How can he teach the prince?"
"I heard that Your Majesty thinks highly of this man. Although he has outstanding abilities, I think he still needs to be polished. It won't be too late to mention him later!"
Emperor Jing was just about to speak when Li Yuanzhao, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't hold it anymore!
I was so surprised when I heard the news about opening mountains to prevent floods that I almost jumped up. I didn't expect Fang Zhengyi could really set off a thunderbolt!
At this moment, he heard that his father suddenly made an exception and allowed Fang Zheng to enter the Zhanshi Mansion, and he was even more delighted.
As a result, Zhang Dongxiang intervened and Li Yuanzhao's face suddenly turned dark.
"Master Zhang, I think it is most appropriate for County Magistrate Fang to join the Zhanshi Mansion."
"After just one day in Taoyuan County, I have made great progress! If you don't believe me, ask Master Yan!"
Yan Guoan was originally the Chancellor of the Chancellery, and had been in charge of teaching the prince. When he heard the prince calling him, Yan Guoan immediately stepped out and bowed.
Then he said awkwardly: "It is true... The prince has been working extra hard since he came back from his trip... He even memorized several books..."
Facing everyone's strange looks, Yan Guoan wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground.
Everyone knows what kind of person the prince is. He even recites books. It’s good enough for him to touch the cover of the book!
Yan Guoan originally thought that the prince had finally come to his senses and that the credit could be attributed to him, but he didn't expect Fang Zhengyi to show up halfway.
This was so embarrassing that I almost dug my toes into the ground.
Emperor Jing glanced at Li Yuanzhao. He didn't expect that this rebellious son would actually work so hard to memorize the book in order to get Fang Zheng into the Zhanshi Mansion.
Hearing this, Zhang Dongxiang immediately shut up.
Now that the world is at peace, nothing is more important than the prince's teachings.
A prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold!
There is someone in the world who can make the prince undergo such a big transformation, so any reward would not be excessive.
Emperor Jing looked around the room and said calmly, "My Lords...do you still have any doubts? If not, I will issue an order."
