Chapter 437: Grand Chancellor of the Cabinet


Everyone suddenly thought of something and were shocked. Emperor Ming even stood up directly, his excitement evident in his eyes.

Immediately, a white figure rushed to the court and excitedly shouted, “Your Majesty, another golden dragon has opened its eyes on the Coiling Dragon Pillar!”

A golden dragon opening its eyes means prosperity for the country!

This was a well-known fact, but why did another golden dragon appear so quickly after one had just opened its eyes?

Everyone couldn’t help but think about the imperial examination system.

After all, this sudden change occurred right after the Emperor announced the Imperial Examination System.

Could it be that the Imperial Examination System could truly rejuvenate Great Qian?

“Haha, excellent!” Emperor Ming on the Dragon Throne was overjoyed.

At first, only four golden dragons opened their eyes.

Although no one dared to say it outright, Emperor Ming knew that some people must have thought that his rule was ineffective, leading to the country’s decline.

But now?

Under his reign, two more Golden Dragons have opened their eyes!

Emperor Ming, full of energy, asked the officials below, “Now, is there anyone else who opposes my implementation of the Imperial Examination System?”

The Imperial Examination System has little impact on the selection of military generals, and there is little opposition from the military. Naturally, they watched from the sidelines and took no part in the matter.

As for the civil officials who had the most at stake, after seeing the golden dragon open its eyes, they dared not raise any more objections.

After exchanging glances, they reluctantly and respectfully said, “Your Majesty is wise, we have no objections”.

“In that case, as I said, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel will implement it immediately. By this day next year, I want to see some different faces in this court!”

“We obey Your Majesty’s command,” the officials from the Ministries of Rites and Personnel replied in unison.

“Dismissed!”

Back in his study, Emperor Ming’s joy was still evident.

Eunuch Li hadn’t seen the Emperor like this for a long time.

As he looked at the monuments, Emperor Ming asked, “What is the current official position of the Qin family?”

His Majesty was about to raise the title of the Qin family again, which surprised Eunuch Li.



Of course, Qin Feng wasn’t idle. During this time, he had been refining the Righteous Qi in his body with Primordial Immortal Qi.

As someone who had entered the Fifth Realm, his refining speed was far from what it used to be. In just a few days, he had completely refined the thunderous righteous qi in the Divine Sea, making the purple righteous energies more condensed.

After another five days, a piece of news caused a sensation in Imperial City – the announcement of the Imperial Examination System!

All the citizens couldn’t believe what was written on the notice board. Commoners could actually enter the court by reading and change their fate?

The people who heard this news were excited to spread it around. This result was within Qin Feng’s expectations, as when he accepted the academic dispute, he vaguely saw the scene of the imperial examination system being announced in his dream.

With his knowledge, it was not difficult to guess the inevitable connection between the two.

However, the announcement also explicitly stated that although the imperial examination system had been promulgated, it would not be implemented immediately. It would be delayed for six months.

Qin Feng understood that the Emperor felt that students from poor backgrounds lacked the foundation of knowledge. Even if the Imperial Examination System was implemented immediately, they wouldn’t be able to compete with the students from the National Academy.

This six-month period was both a buffer and an opportunity for students from humble backgrounds.

One morning, the Qin family was having breakfast in the main hall.

Outside the Qin residence, the familiar voice of the imperial edict was once again heard.

Naturally, the Qin family did not dare to neglect, and rushed outside to receive the edict.

Qin Feng only saw Eunuch Li reading the edict. When the eunuch noticed him, he nodded with a smile and then proceeded to announce the edict.

The contents of the edict were considerable. In addition to rewards of gold, silver, grain, and cloth, there was also the matter of Qin’s father’s official rank being raised.

Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished, unable to contain their shock.

Not much time had passed, and the official rank of the head of the Qin family had been upgraded several times. He had now reached the rank of Second Assistant General, a significant promotion that also implied an increase in the status of the Qin residence.

Interestingly, the reasons given in the imperial edict left everyone puzzled.

If we were to extract the core meaning, it could be summarised in two words – “Wise Upbringing”?



What kind of reason was that?

Qin Feng knew very well that the reason for all this must be that the imperial examination system he proposed was appreciated by Emperor Ming.

At first, he thought that with the emperor’s gifts and the promotion of his father’s rank, the matter would be settled.

But to his surprise, he was also given a new title.

“Grand Chancellor of the Cabinet?” Qin Feng looked completely dumbfounded.
