There are 12 subjects in this year's system, more than 1,000 people have entered the examination, and 138 people have been selected. The selection rate is really low. As the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, Wen Qiao also learned about the list early on. Among them, the three selected in the special section are even more eye-catching.
Two of the three were county magistrates and one was county magistrate Shi, all of whom had joined the bureau from the Bingzhou system. However, unlike the previous poor family Renbei officials, as long as they pass the special examination, they can also go to Taiwan Province. In addition, students from various prefectures to Chongwen Hall, and officials below the fourth rank, can also make up a child to take the entrance exam. In the future, there will definitely be more underprivileged scholars who will enter officialdom through Chang Ke. If there are a few more cold scholars from the Jinshi background, how much can the central family occupy? Moreover, there is the new policy of "no Lizhou County, no Taiwan Province".
This step-by-step change has awakened the Northland family. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the move to restore the nine-rank official and personnel law seemed more like a stopgap measure. No matter how many noble families there are, what is the use of being able to enter the three provinces because of the quality of the township
And these changes were even more sensitive to Wen Qiao, who served in the Ministry of Personnel.
After the emperor ascended the throne, the former chief of the six divisions of Bingzhou leapt to the top of the six divisions. The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the appointment and examination of officials below the sixth rank. This power is enough to excite people. However, the official minister of officials was Cui Ji and Cui Gongqiao, who had the ability to follow the dragon and opened the door for the prince. Shangdang Cui's family has nothing to do with the Qinghe lineage, but is a poor family. Even if the aristocratic families want to clear the relationship, the other party may not take care of them.
Therefore, Wen Qiao, the second official of the Ministry of Personnel, is of great significance. Originally from the Wen clan in Taiyuan, it was the first noble family in Bingzhou to serve the emperor. Once served as a state and county, he moved up all the way, and won the trust of the emperor. Now that it is less than thirty years old, it is ranked fourth, and the future is really promising.
In any family, who can have few in-laws and few old friends? In front of Wen Qiao's mansion, it is like a city. There are also many people who frequently instigated him to open the door of convenience for the aristocratic family. Just put him on fire.
However, despite being persuaded, Wen Qiao never moved. Just because he understood that the nobles who stayed in the Northland were not in the same mood.
Wen Qiao, who is also from the same family, knows these high-level temperaments too well. There are many aristocratic families who are keen on glory and talk about the noble, but most of them go south and live in the east of the Yangtze River. And those who stay in the Northland are not the ones who have great wealth and are not afraid of the tyrannical powers of Hulu. It is a person who is devious and opportunistic.
These people can talk to each other about mysteries, but they will not put their wealth and interests on others. If possible, stepping on someone's back would be even more enjoyable!
And the Son of Heaven should also know their nature. Whether it is the ninth-rank official person method, or the Chang Ke to pick up scholars, they have all given the family a path. The boundaries have already been drawn. As long as they don't cross the boundaries, they will be based on their abilities. And if the aristocratic family really participated in the scientific examination, would it be worse than the poor scholars
It's like a pot of lukewarm water that boils everyone in it. Either go upstream, or sink to the bottom of the cauldron. If there is any objection, how did the Chen clan in Yuzhou destroy the clan last year? It's a foreshadowing.
The possibility of self-reliance as a king, or even a separatist party, is becoming more and more slim. It is too late to flee to the South now. It is always better to stay in Da Zhao than to be a minister to the Huns.
This ring is so tightly wrapped. Wen Qiao sometimes couldn't help but wonder if he, the official servant, was one of the secret tricks of the emperor. I want to use him to fish out those wicked rebels.
It is precisely because of this that Wen Qiao became more self-denying and serving the public. As a human being in the two dynasties, after wars and turmoil, he knew better than anyone that being the son of today was far superior to the kings of Sima Zhu. If he wanted to be a drunkard, he would have crossed the south of the Yangtze River long ago. And staying in Da Zhao, no matter what your background, as long as you have talent, are you afraid that you will have nowhere to use it
When his youngest son is six years old, he will be sent to Chongwen Museum. The eldest son can be graceful, and the other heirs have to rely on their abilities. At that time, his father and uncle were known as "six dragons", how could his sons be inferior
More than Wen Qiao, the reform of the system has also caused waves in the hearts of many people. However, there were not many outspoken words. A few days ago, there was news that there was another civil uprising in Jiangdong, and more than a dozen counties were destroyed. Not to mention the territory occupied by the Huns, there were tens of thousands of refugees who fled from Yong and Qin. It's just a matter of life.
Although the world is big, there are not many places to live in. Or family business and small life.
No one objected, and the rest was to praise the virtues. The scholars selected by Enke also entered the palace to see him as usual.
Standing outside Dongye Gate, Sun Zhang felt sweat on his back. Ever since he found out that he was on the Apricot List and ranked in the top three of "Wen Jing Bang Guo Ke", he has been excited day and night without sleep. This is Encore! Even if he is not as good as Chang Ke, he can still enter the dynasty as an official. If it was released, at least it was the county magistrate who started out. A few years ago, I'm afraid I wouldn't even dare to dream!
What's even better is that the other three people who have been with him are also selected. Except for Zou Qian's lower ranking, Lu Chun and Zhu Yue are not bad in the exam! In the future, the four of them will be the serious "same year". In officialdom, they can also take care of each other.
So happy and happy, how can you not be excited and uncomfortable? Therefore, standing in front of this door, let alone sweat and wet clothes, Sun Zhang's legs were a little weak. Enke is no better than Changke, there is no such thing as the top three, nor can he enter the temple to play the right. But being able to stand outside the Taiji Hall and see the majesty of the imperial city is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Your Majesty has a decree to announce that new talents will enter the palace and face the saint!" The voice of the decree came from the palace far away, echoing endlessly.
Chang Ke and the first are called "Jinshi", while Enke is called "Scholarly Talent". The talent show is also the country's dry city. This is the approval of the Son of Heaven to them, and it is also a grace. Hearing the "Scholarly Talent" from the Ritual Officer, tears in Sun Zhang's eyes almost fell.
With all his strength, he and everyone thanked the emperor for his grace, followed by the ceremonial officer and stepped into the palace.
The palace wall just now is majestic and thick, which is awe-inspiring. However, when he really set foot in Miyagi, Sun Zhang realized that he was lonely. Yu Linwei, who was persistently sharp, stood on the road, the sword in his hand flickered with golden light, and the cold air was overflowing. The imperial brick is like a mirror, the palace is like a forest, and the city tower in the distance is flying, making the sky a little lower.
Passing through the car door, then through the Xiangfeng Tower, entering the end door, and putting the magnificent general chapter behind you, the Chinese Dynasty in the "Three Dynasties and Five Gates" is displayed in front of you.
The five virtues are in rotation, the Zhao Dynasty is the Jin Dynasty, the fire virtue is the fire virtue, and the red is still alive. The hall in front of it, with green tiles and pillars, is majestic and solemn, like a giant beast sitting on a jade platform. The imperial steps of the ascending hall stretch, all in vermilion, one step and one step seem to be boundless, blending into the hall. The incense burner in front of the Taiji Hall emits mist, the feather forest is dense, and there is a Jinlou decorated with a sundial, which is dotted.
Against the backdrop of this huge palace, more than a hundred new talents are as small as ants.
After everyone has followed the instructions of the ceremonial official, they will enter the station. The court musicians played Shao music. Sun Zhang's heartbeat became faster, and he didn't even dare to catch his breath. This should be the emperor ascended the throne, right? Is the Ninety-five Honorable in the hall in front of you? However, no matter how excited he was in the bottom of his heart, he didn't dare to look up at Tianzi Lu Bo. Just follow what I have learned before, along with all the officials in the hall, go to Jishou, long live the mountain.
During the singing and drinking of "Pingshen", Sun Zhang's hands and feet trembled and he stood up straight again. Sweat had dripped down his chin, but he didn't dare to wipe it. After waiting for a while, an old man with an imperial decree walked out of the Taiji Hall, stood on top of the alchemy, and opened the edict.
This person is Fan Long, Minister of Rites. Enke was not allowed to go to the palace because he did not have a palace exam. However, there is still the name of the Golden Palace and the Prelude to the Imperial Palace. Although he is old, Fan Long's voice is still high and full of energy.
"In the fourth year of enlightenment, the emperor Longen opened the system and recruited talents from all over the world. Today, one hundred and thirty-eight scholars were selected. Three were selected from the special performance department, and the same was born as a jinshi. Wenbang passed the national science, and selected five people... and ten people from the medical department. All of them were awarded the ninth grade, and they were born to scholars!"
The special performance section actually gave Tongjinshi a background! And it has not been granted an official position. Is this to be determined according to the original official position? However, all of these disappeared in a flash in Sun Zhang's mind. Just because on the high platform, the Minister of Rites has already begun to announce the names of everyone!
"…The third place in Wenbangjing National Science, Sun Zhang."
When the name sounded outside the hall and was sung by the servants in unison, Sun Zhang really burst into tears, stepped forward and bowed to the ground: "Chen Sun Zhang, thank your Majesty Long En!"
His voice blended into the thanksgiving of the others, making it almost inaudible. Yet no one cares. Sun Zhang only felt that his lifelong wish had been fulfilled.
However, when one hundred and thirty-eight people finished reading in sequence, Xiao Huangmen shouted an order in the hall: "Your Majesty has an order, Xuan Te Zong Ke and Jin Shi will enter the Tai Chi Hall for an audience."
Sun Zhang's mouth almost couldn't close. Enter the hall and face the holy! Does the Special Ensemble have such an honor? This is even better than the real Tongjinshi, only Sandingjia can compare!
However, no matter how they thought about it, the three of them had already left the line, and under the leadership of the ceremonial official, they set foot on the Pill Emperor and entered the hall. In his chest, an unspeakable feeling suddenly ignited, and Sun Zhang gritted his teeth. He still has hope. As long as you are an official and study hard, one day, you will be able to get such an honor!
The Son of Heaven never despised them. The master of this Tai Chi Palace is worthy of his heart and mind, before he drives to death!
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out. Under the turmoil, Sun Zhang couldn't help but look up. I saw two small doors open upstairs outside the palace. Two wooden figures, more than three feet tall, stepped out at the same time. One rang the bell, and the other held a placard. His eyes flickered, and although he couldn't read the text on the card, he could clearly see the purple robe on the puppet.
With a huge shock in his heart, Sun Zhang hurriedly lowered his eyes. what is this? Did God give him an auspicious omen, indicating that he could also wear crimson purple
In fact, Sun Zhang didn't realize it. Most of the talents under the stairs couldn't help but glance at it, and they all saw the purple-robed puppet. The ceremonial officer standing beside him twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, pretending that he hadn't seen them, and never reprimanded them for their disrespectful behavior.
After all, there are not many emperors who will build the bell tower in front of the Taiji Hall. In comparison, it is more normal for Emperor Wei Ming to spend huge sums of money to build bronze dragons and bronze phoenixes in front of Shigan Palace.
But the Son of Heaven, there is always something surprising. Just by looking at the awe-inspiring eyes of those people, you can tell that the bell tower has no white cover. Stealing his eyes and looking at the time on the sundial on the roof, the ceremonial officer lowered his eyes again and waited for the end of the ceremony.

"In one fell swoop, on the day of graduation, you will return to your hometown with brocade... That said, if you really become an official, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to return to your hometown." Leaning in front of the imperial case, Liang Feng smiled.
Now the DPRK is implementing the method of becoming an official in a different place. If he does become an official, he must avoid his hometown. Those four Dengke poems were purely drawn by Liang Feng from his memory, so he couldn't do it properly.
But it's really useful. If it wasn't for the fear that the smell of copper would cause a backlash, he really wanted to bring out the song "Yan Ruyu in the Book". Selecting scholars in the imperial examination was a good strategy for centralizing power and controlling localities. As long as he has the ability, which emperor wants to see the face of the local boss
"Jinke has more scholars, does the lord want to fight Yongzhou?" Beside him, Yi Yan hooked a silver spoon and picked out another cherry pit. A few processed cherries were piled in the small jade plate opposite, almost a mouthful.
I didn't expect Yi Yan to see it. Liang Feng raised his eyebrows, threw the pile of sweet and sour cherries into his mouth, and said, "After two years of beating Yuzhou, it's still quite docile. The front line has also been pushed to the north bank of Huai River. No worries, it's time to move Yongzhou. Besides, Qin Tianjian has just reported it, and it is estimated that there will be several solar eclipses in the next two years. Now that Yong and Qin are in chaos, and they encounter a solar eclipse, do those Huns still have the heart to defend the city?”
These words made Yi Yan refreshed: "If there is a solar eclipse, I will be able to conquer Chang'an in one battle!"
"It's good to defeat the enemy in one battle, but the loss is too great. Take your time and force the Xiongnu to retreat and let them waste their strength. There are still too many Qianghus in Yong and Qin, which is not a good thing after all." Liang Feng saw it. clear. Those Diqiang and Zahu who followed the Xiongnu in rebellion were enough to constitute a factor of instability.
These people don't just surrender. It's down today, it might be up again tomorrow. You can only force the fake Han to consume himself and destroy his combatable soldiers as much as possible. After the pacification, the people were scattered and mixed with the Han people to assimilate. It may take fifty or even a hundred years to completely eliminate hidden dangers.
But what he wants is the real unification. It is not a grand scene of four barbarians coming to the dynasty, but assimilation and annihilation, complete annexation and stability. It is worth spending some time for this purpose.
Although Yiyan was also a Hu, he didn't focus on the debate between Hua and Yi. As long as the country can be stable and the people can live happily, it is the greatest blessing. Since Bingzhou can succeed, if you want to come to Yongzhou, you can treat it equally.
"If this is the case, I'm afraid it will take two years." Yi Yan thought about it and said, "On the front line of Huai Shui, we have to prepare for war and train the navy army."
After defeating the Huns, we will send troops to conquer the south. This is not something that can be solved by simply walking. How could Wei Wu fight in those days, he was not defeated by Chibi. Without a strong enough navy, wanting to conquer Jiangdong is purely a dream.
Liang Feng smiled: "It's natural. I still have the treasure at the bottom of the box, but I haven't taken it out yet..."
Halfway through the conversation, a servant in the East Palace suddenly asked to see him. When the emperor summoned the generals of chariots and cavalry to discuss state affairs, no one dared to disturb them. However, the subordination of the East Palace was unusual, Liang Feng sat up slightly and called him in.
Soon, the visitor trotted all the way, rushed into the hall, and fell on his knees: "Your Majesty is overjoyed! The Crown Princess is pregnant!"
"What!" Liang Feng couldn't help leaning forward, "Is the hospital confirmed?"
"The Imperial Physician has personally checked the pulse! It's absolutely true!" The little Huangmen's face flushed with excitement, and he replied loudly.
"Okay! There is a reward!" Liang Feng tightly grabbed the hand of the person beside him. The princess is pregnant, but it's a great thing! Once a grandson is born, the three-generation inheritance is set. This one alone can make all the wall riders fall to Da Zhao!
"I congratulate Your Majesty!" The other hand stroked the back of Liang Feng's hand.
Turning his head, a pair of blue eyes are shining brightly, with joy blooming. Yes, he also hoped that Rong'er would give birth to a grandson earlier. I hope that the crime of infatuation that I have committed can be repaid. Heart, was rubbed severely. Liang Feng suddenly said: "It happens that Aiqing is also in the palace. Would you like to follow me to the East Palace?"
Yi Lai hesitated for a moment, then a smile slowly appeared on his face: "This is the luck of the minister."
Liang Feng also laughed. Holding Yi Yan's hand, he stood up and swung into the East Palace.
The author has something to say:
The title of Xiucai came into being in the Han Dynasty. The ministers and the states can nominate a scholar every year, which means outstanding talents. Later, when Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu ascended the throne, he became Maocai. When I arrived in the Three Kingdoms, I changed it again. Switching to Liang Shao's side and using it as the title of the system department actually gave these people a high look. However, the tradition that the jinshi is higher than the scholar is probably also passed down.
