065 Proceeding 1

The Sifang Pavilion is located by the river. The pavilion is not small, and there is a large corridor connected to another pavilion. Now it is closed, and it is a good place to hold a poetry party here. There is a fire tree silver flower on the left and a river lantern on the right, which can be regarded as a charm.

Li You and his party were taken to the pavilion by the guards. At this time, the guards said: "Li Langjun, please come forward and see the envoy."

The meaning of this is to let Li You go alone, because Cui Tong only called Li You, and Li You was four, so naturally the other three could only stay by the pavilion. As for what Cui Tong did with Li You, Li You still doesn't know, so he can only ask after seeing Cui Tong.

I walked up the stairs and came to the pavilion. I saw four low tables in the pavilion. Next to the governor Cui Tong should be the new Chang Shi, and this man is still sitting next to this young man. This person is today’s woman. Xiao Qixue dressed as a man and came out to play. The other two tables are currently empty, I don't know who they are.

When it was Xiao Qixue, when someone came, she raised her eyes and found that it was Li You.

After Li You bowed to Cui Tong and Xiao Bi, he heard Cui Tong say: "Li You, today’s Shangyuan Poetry Club, if you ran into it, you might as well participate in it. The prize for this poem fair is the official. Co-recommendation with Xiao Changshi."

What does Cui Tong mean? It has to start with the selection of scholars at this time. Scientific research is one thing, and recommendation is another. If you want to be an official in the scientific examination, you must first pass the state and county examinations, and then get the qualifications, and then send them to Shangshu Province to take the examination. The Shangshu Province examination is generally called the Provincial Examination, or the Ministry of Etiquette Examination. The most difficult one is Jinshi. The examinations for majors such as Mingmao are much simpler, because even if they pass the exam, the official position they receive is the smallest, which is fundamentally different from Jinshi.

Everyone knows how difficult it is to get a scholar, but the most rare thing is still to come. For Jinshi and junior, there is one more test. This is an examination for the officials. It is called a selection test. Only those who pass can be awarded official positions. If the officials fail the examination and want to be an official, it will be troublesome. Then you need to go to a certain degree to be an assistant, and then mix with them to a formal official position before you can enter the officialdom.

And the easiest thing is to recommend. In the Tang Dynasty, it is not only the test results, but also the recommendation of famous officials. Generally, there are recommendations. It is definitely easy to become an official. Therefore, many candidates have rushed to Under the public servants, to offer their own works to them, hoping to gain favor, in order to achieve the purpose of recommending themselves, this is to vote. It is very difficult for people to vote for the Ministry of Rites called the public rolls, while those for high-ranking officials and nobles are called official rolls, which are very useful. ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

Chang Shi Xiaobi is a son of the Lanling Xiao family, not to mention it, and Cui Tong is the long-term son of the Qinghe Cui family. Their Cui family is a big family of five surnames, and their family influence and social status are more than that of the Lanling Xiao family. Even higher, if he and Xiao Bi jointly recommend it, it would be easy to become an official.

There is also the most troublesome thing in the middle, because the imperial court has strict regulations on the number of people who come to take each subject examination in each place, and it sets a quota for each state. In Shangzhou like Yangzhou, there are only three people who can take the Jinshi exam every year, and there are also three people in Mingjing, but there are more people in specialties like Mingma, but even so, Mingma is only every year. Five people.

It depends on the test scores and family background. Only those who have a good place will be given a place. If they do not get a place, they will naturally have to wait for the next year. Therefore, if you want to get a scholarship, it is not something that ordinary people can take.

So this time Cui Tong and Xiao Bi used their family recommendation as a prize winner. It was a shortcut, and the person who asked for it would not know where it is. Li You looked up and saw that the corridors were full of low tables, which were almost full, with at least a dozen people.

"Cui Shijun, the boy is too young to participate in this poem meeting."

Cui Tong was also a little surprised, feeling as if he hadn't made it clear, Li You actually refused, and didn't even want the opportunity to give it a try. Xiao Bi was also very puzzled and frowned. Is it possible that Li You has no advantage in poems and essays, but even so, you can give it a try. There is no reason to refuse in person. After all, the Li family is just a commoner, so he refuses directly. Refuting Cui Tong's face is really not good.

And Xiao Qixue next to Xiao Bi was also a little surprised by Li You's words and deeds. Don't think Xiao Qixue was only twelve years old and the same age as Li You. She was in an official family. She understood these things.

It was Cui Tong who thought of the crux of the problem. The Li family is now supported by Li You. No matter whether Li You is talented or not, he will not be an official. This is not cost-effective at all. After thinking about it, Cui Tong said: "Li You, don't forget, you are already an official, but your majesty promised your position as a lieutenant. The official status is still in my Yangzhou Zhechong Mansion. If you participate, the official will not recommend you, you No need to refuse, go find a table and sit down."

Don't look at Xiao Bi, who turned out to be a member of the Ministry of War, but this matter was not his hands. He really didn't know about it. Li You's official status is in Yangzhou, but apart from Cui Tong and several subordinate officials, few people in Yangzhou know about it.

Li You can no longer refuse now. If he refuses again, he will be ignorant and he can only stay. However, he still asked Cui Tong again: "Come on, can Su Yang participate?"

Cui Tong thought for a while, and finally remembered that this was the second place in last year's test. Now that it's all about it, he also agreed. Afterwards, Su Yang was also called in. In Li You's opinion, success or failure is one thing. It is another thing to let Su Yang show his face in front of the two envoys and let people remember him. After all, he will come to Beijing in the future. The recommendation of places for the big exam depends on others.

When Li You and Su Yang sat down, two white-haired old men came, both in Confucian shirts. When they came, they all stood up, including Cui Tong and Xiao Bi. Li You naturally stood up, he I knew very well that these two elders must be great scholars or famous people in the world. Otherwise, Cui Tong would never stand up to welcome them, and would not let everyone wait for these two people. New Bayi Chinese website debut

"Students visit Mr. Lu, Master Yan." Cui Tong and Xiaobi spoke first, and then everyone met the two great scholars.

After the two great scholars took their seats, Cui Tong said: "Today, during the Shangyuan Festival, although there is no bright moon in the sky, there is a beautiful scenery on the side, and how can there be no poetry. Tonight, I will meet friends with poetry, and there will be a famous teacher to correct me. This person shows what he has learned. If anyone can lead the poems by himself, he will be recommended by the official and Xiao Changshi."

None of the people here are civilians. They are all children from aristocratic families. They are all young talents from Yangzhou. Li You can easily tell from their clothes, words and deeds. What these people value is definitely a recommendation. No doubt.

Without waiting for everyone to continue talking in a low voice, Cui Tong raised his hand to calm everyone down. He looked around again for a week and announced the beginning of the poem meeting loudly. When Cui Tong scanned Li You's body, Li You saw the really thought-provoking chuckle of the governor.

Mr. Lu got up at this moment and said loudly: "This time there will be three rounds of poems, and each round will have a poem. Yan Fuzi and I will judge and give points. After the three rounds, the one with the highest score wins. This first round With water as the subject and a stick of incense as the limit, we will start now.” (End of this chapter)
