    Sun Chengzong was originally the teacher of Emperor Taichang, but since the death of Emperor Taichang, there have been no new appointments in the court.  His Hanlin editor only has a false title, so he has been at home these days.  Glancing at Sun Chengzong, a look of difference flashed across Yang He's face. Although he had met this old man several times before, he really had never had any dealings with him.  At this time, when he came to this adult's home, Yang He discovered that this gentleman was really a good official. At this time, it was already very difficult to be honest and self-sufficient.  After pondering for a moment, Yang He said with a smile: "Master Sun, you can't save the money for this banquet. Although you don't invite me to wait in, you can't avoid the wine." Yang He glanced behind Sun Chengzong.  A house like this, it seems that farmers in the countryside live in such houses. It is hard to imagine that a dignified imperial master of the first generation actually lives in such a place.  Just when Sun Chengzong wanted to ask why, a group of people came once again in front of this rarely seen door every day, but this time the people who came were different.  A little blue cap, it doesn¡¯t look special at all, not even as good as those of the rich men in the countryside.  What makes people dare not underestimate these people is the group of people guarding the pride. They are the imperial guards, the guards of Emperor Apocalypse.  As the curtain was raised, a eunuch in palace clothes walked out slowly. When he saw the official standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "My lords, you are here early.  Ah! It seems that our family is late. " "Eunuch Chen, it's useless for us to come early! It's up to you to take care of it!" Yang He has no prejudice against this old man.  The favorite of Emperor Tianqi, and he was quite upright, and he was not the same type of person as those eunuchs who were extremely evil.  "Master Yang said this, our family cannot afford it. I wonder who is Master Sun? Come out and receive the order!" Chen Hong slowly walked towards the crowd. After scanning around the crowd, his eyes  It fell on Sun Chengzong's face.  "My lord, Sun Chengzong accepts the order, long live my emperor." Although Sun Chengzong was a little confused, he still knelt on the ground to receive the order.  "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Sun Chengzong was born as a scholar, had always been talented, and was once the teacher of the late emperor. Since I came to the throne, I have been cautious and careful, fearing that I will betray the great trust of the late emperor. I hereby confer Sun Chengzong as a scholar of Huangji Palace and serve in the cabinet.  I have been specially ordered to confer the title of Imperial Master and come to the palace to teach me how to read. "As Chen Hong read out, Sun Chengzong's body couldn't help but tremble. He had waited for so many years and it was finally here.  "I thank you, Lord, for your kindness." He respectfully accepted the imperial edict. Although Sun Chengzong looked a little excited, his face was filled with relief.  Looking at Sun Chengzong's appearance, and then at the house behind him, Chen Hong thought to himself: "This Lord Sun is really extraordinary, no wonder His Majesty values ??him so much." "Master Sun, Your Majesty knows that Your Majesty lives a poor life, and this is a reward from His Majesty.  "Chen Hong said as he waved to the guard behind him. The guard understood and came over with a wooden plate, which was also covered with a piece of red silk.  Gently picking up the silk, Chen Hong immediately revealed the silver-white stuff inside. Chen Hong smiled softly and said slowly: "Here are five hundred taels of silver, which your Majesty gave to Mr. Sun. I hope Mr. Sun will accept it with pleasure.  " Looking at the dazzling silver, Sun Chengzong sighed in his heart. It seems that this young emperor is really not simple!  He gently picked up a piece of silver, put it in Chen Hong's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Eunuch Chen, for your hard work this time, Eunuch Chen." After taking the silver into his hand, Chen Hong suddenly laughed. It seemed that  This Master Sun is not a stubborn old man who has never changed. He also understands the truth!  "Everyone, I want to go back and change my clothes. Everyone, please wait. Everyone, come to congratulate me. I've invited you to have a drink." Nodding to Chen Hongxiao, Sun Chengzong turned his eyes to Yang who was standing aside.  He and the others smiled.  With the end of the cabinet chief minister's incident, the entire court seemed to have returned to its previous atmosphere. Although it was lifeless, it was also orderly.  The Donglin Party members seemed to have acquiesced to this result, while the Qi, Zhechu and Chu Party members took the time to contact neutral ministers. It seemed that they were the protagonists in the court.  In the Palace of Qianqing and the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Tianqi is summoning Sun Chengzong, the new chief minister of the cabinet.  Neither the monarch nor the minister spoke, they were all looking at each other. Emperor Tianqi kept looking at this famous official in the late Ming Dynasty, with a look of joy flashing in his eyes.  While Emperor Tianqi was sizing up Sun Chengzong, the newly appointed bachelor was also sizing up Emperor Tianqi.  The cowardly young man in his impression was gone, replaced by a face full of perseverance, and his eyes were constantly flashing when he opened and closed them, which made him look very extraordinary.  "Sun Aiqing, how have you been these past few days? Is there anything going on at home? Can you?I'll tell you.  "After taking a look at Sun Chengzong who was calm and composed, Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but secretly admire this old gentleman. His ability to nourish his energy alone was beyond the reach of ordinary people. "Your Majesty, everything is well at home, I'm sorry for your concern.  "Sun Chengzong gave a slight salute to Emperor Tianqi, with a hint of gratitude. "Although it was already very late, the Ouchi Palace was still brightly lit, and everyone in the palace knew that Emperor Tianqi was summoning Sun Chengzong, the new cabinet scholar.  The newly appointed cabinet scholar, both inside and outside the palace, believed that he was a minister who was deeply favored by the emperor. In the imperial study, Emperor Tianqi and Sun Chengzong sat opposite each other, with several dishes and a pot on the table.  Wine. "Sun Aiqing, I'm very happy today. Come and have a few drinks with me!"  "Emperor Tianqi is in a good mood. It can be seen from his face that such a smile is rare for such a long time. This makes Li Lan standing aside even more curious, who is this Sun Chengzong?  People, why did Emperor Tianqi value it so much? Compared with Emperor Tianqi's happiness, Sun Chengzong seemed a little nervous. In the Han and Tang Dynasties, it was nothing for ministers to eat with the emperor, but in the Ming Dynasty, apart from the formal ceremony, it was very rare.  Few people can get such an honor. Gently picking up the wine glass on the table, Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty, I have received no salary for my merits and have trouble sleeping and eating.  ¡± For this experienced official, his life experience was very bumpy. Although he was selected as a scholar at the age of sixteen, his good luck seemed to have run out at that time. It was not until sixteen years later that the thirty-two-year-old Sun Chengzong took the exam.  Sun Chengzong, who originally thought he was lucky, found that fate had played a trick on him again. It was not until eleven years later that Sun Chengzong passed the Jinshi exam. At this time, Sun Chengzong was already 43 years old.  I got second place, but it can be said that I am a late bloomer. That¡¯s it for today. Thank you all! Good night to everyone!
