Until his sedan chair left, the students remained kneeling on the ground.

Many of them even had tears in their eyes.

"We misunderstood the emperor today, blindly causing trouble, but the emperor did not blame us."

"I just saw Minister Jiang's nonsensical article and thought that we, the few students leading the trouble, would be arrested by the guards."

"Ah, the emperor truly loves talent and is generous!"

Xiao Yunzhou listened happily to the students' praises, then immediately announced in the palace, dismissed the last ten officials in today's assessment.

He then promoted ten officials with good assessments.

After finishing the matter, Xiao Yunzhou casually flipped through a stack of documents and then glanced at Liu Family's patriarch and Chancellor Fu Cha.

"Liu Wenchang, you and Chancellor Fu Cha will oversee this special examination."

Xiao Yunzhou spoke with emotion, looking at the officials.

"Liu Wenchang, you have only been in the Ministry of Personnel for less than five days, yet you are already familiar with the regulations. If all of you are as dedicated to your duties as he is, I wouldn't have to spend time inspecting you all."

The officials fell silent.

The head of the Liu Family blushed a bit, "Oh, stop it."

After the Emperor's question about 'How should Pan Zhishui be handled' was answered by his granddaughter, he realized that the Emperor liked officials who were diligent in their positions.

Xiao Yunzhou was a practical Emperor!

He enjoyed cultivating himself, so he didn't have time to chat with the officials, he was straightforward, hoping that all officials could do their duties well.

Therefore, the head of the Liu Family had been studying the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel diligently at home these days.

Unexpectedly, after staying up for four nights and memorizing everything, he passed the test and was praised by the Emperor!

[Ah, my grandfather is the second highest official in the Ministry of Personnel.]

[Grandfather has only been transferred for less than four days, look at those dark circles under his eyes, he's really studying hard.]

Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but look over sympathetically at her grandfather who was still working hard at his age, she really admired him.

[Whatever position my grandfather is transferred to, he will do his best to fulfill his duties.]

[Is it to not disappoint the Emperor? If all officials were so diligent, our Jing Country would be saved.]

Xiao Yunzhou was moved by this.

"Dismissed, everyone."

Turning around, he quietly instructed Wei Zheng to reward the old Liu Family and Concubine Liu with a lunch together, a family reunion.

"Your Majesty, you forgot, Concubine Liu left the palace early this morning to make winter clothes." Wei Zheng smiled.

The Emperor was taken aback.

"Yesterday, Concubine Liu made five hundred winter clothes and sent them to the refugees. Today, without stopping, she has started making the second batch." Wei Zheng promptly reported Concubine Liu's progress to Xiao Yunzhou.

Xiao Yunzhou was even more touched.

The whole Liu Family is diligent!

"Then allow Concubine Liu to stay at home for a night. Today, the old Liu can rest, allowing them to reunite as a family."
