Chapter 714: Never let go
Compared to later generations who only judged heroes by one Jinshi, in the first century of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examinations were originally a controversy among hundreds of schools of thought. In addition to the Mingjing of Jinshi, there were also Mingfa subjects that selected law officials, Mingfa subjects who were good at algorithms and numbers, including the History subject, Scholar, Three Transmission subjects, and Art Mathematics subjects... It seems to be a variety of things, but over the years, the Mingfa subjects have become the best way for most scholars to come from, and the rest of the subjects have long declined. Even the Mingfa subjects that repeatedly created many famous law officials back then have few respondents now, and even if they have a background, they may not be able to truly become a law officer in their entire lives.
Therefore, during the first round of three-day preface, Du Shiyi first came into contact with the four people on Yuwen Rong's list, and found that except for one person, the other three people were divided into three teachings, Mingfa and historical subjects, but they learned more than their own subjects, and the four people who were not successful had the same points.
Except for Zhao Kangnian, who was once reused by Yuwen Rong, the other three people had never met good bosses. They worked diligently in low-ranking assistants for many years. In the end, most of the evaluations they received were middle-aged and had no way to advance. They had no way to seek the post. If Yuwen Rong had not found the slightest point on them when he was ordered to inspect the farmers in the world, and even specifically noted that, this kind of talent with only one skill and inconspicuousness would not have a chance to make a comeback.
If you don’t see Yuwen Rong, you don’t care about appointing them? The staff is limited, and more importantly, the energy of the superiors is limited and the attention is limited. If you don’t keep it next to you but put it below, how can this be possible
After the first day of the notes, everyone went to their own offices. After all, everyone did not just take charge of the Ministry of Personnel. They had to spend their time at night to make up for the things they had been delayed during the day. For example, Du Shiyi and Zhang Jiuling had to stay up late to finish all the books they had made, so that they could sleep peacefully. The next morning, the next morning, the list of the notes was posted on the South Court of the Ministry of Personnel. Even if the people who came to see the list already knew their results, they could compare the list of the officials who were sent by others, and they were happy and sad.
Among them, the most intimate and eye-catching ones are the few 10 or 20 Beijing officials. Even if they are the heads of various departments of the Shangshu Province, the lowest-ranking officials under the Zhongshu, and even the minor officials of the temple supervisors, they are the focus of people's attention. In addition, they are the county magistrates and assistant officials of Chixian and Jingxian. Although some lucky people who have obtained official positions are very unfamiliar, after whispering and inquiring, the lucky guy's resume of all the official positions can be found completely. Not only these candidates who look at the list, but also many current officials in the three provinces and six ministries are also inquiring about the results of the selection.
On the third day, the retired official confession flew into the Ministry of Personnel like snowflakes. Most of the official positions were located in the southwest near Tubo and Liuzhao, as well as Lingnan Road, or Jiangnan West Road. Of course, there were also a few official positions that were not remote, but they still did not give up and try their luck to see if they could get better candidates. Of course, those who got a good candidate would never propose retirement confession. Therefore, most of the second resignation after the retirement was just a choice of two choices in very bad and worse situations. Therefore, when the third resignation was made, Du Shiyi even slept in his straight room.
The reason is very simple. Although he received the most Lingnan Taoist Que, he had an excellent memory. Even in a first-class bad place, he could always list some advantages and special customs. In addition, he was much gentle and polite than those big guys. Most of the candidates were old foxes. Knowing that even if he retired, he could not match the good ones compared to the many monks who chose them. Therefore, after the first draft, he had fewer retired officials than the other nine people, and after the second draft, he had only one person retired. The discount for not attending court can be enjoyed throughout these nine days, so not only on this day, he did not have to go to the court meeting for the next two days, and he was in a very happy mood.
When the nine-day period was over, the selection door was opened, and finally he was able to go home. Du Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief. Although after that, the book he had written was also sent to the provincial government for review by the Minister of the Left and the Minister of the Left and the Minister of the People, and then sent to the provincial government for review by the Minister of the People and the Minister of the People, the Minister of the People were all among the troupes. Pei Guangting, the Minister of the People, was just sick and unable to take charge of the officials. Pei Guangting, who had always been in charge of the affairs of the officials, even if he had any intention of thinking about the affairs of the officials, he did not dare to cover up the sky as he had always looked after him. Therefore, he almost didn't have to worry about these two procedures.
Therefore, after nine days, when he stepped out of the Daming Palace again in the evening, he saw that all the families outside had sent people to wait, and could only resist the urge to stretch, take steady steps, and gathered up and left behind in the waiting Chibi and others. On the horse, he could still hear people talking around him.
"That is Du Shijiulang, the Secretariat."
"I'm so young, I'm only in my early thirties?"
"I heard that this year is just thirty..."
Although it was not the first time that he had faced such a gaze, after turning on Qixiamen Street, Du Shiyi couldn't help but call Chibi to come up and asked, "Why are there so many people in front of the palace gate today?"
"In addition to all the families who are waiting for others like us, tomorrow will be the day when the Ministry of Rites tribute Academy is released. This year is the first time that the meritorious examination was changed from the Minister of Rites to the Minister of Rites, so everyone hopes to be a little different. What's more, the Minister of Personnel was originally Zhang Jun, the son of the vanguard of Yan, but before the provincial examination, it was suddenly changed to the famous Congratulations tribute Department. Because I heard that the Minister of Rites was changed to the Minister of Rites tribute was the Lord of Rites, I don't know how many famous scholars were all the Demon Lord."
He Zhizhang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, is almost as old as Du Shiyi's grandfather, and his reputation in the literary world is also at its peak. He is also equal to this old man's ability to drink. Although He Zhizhang has never been fortunate to be a tribute in history, he immediately expressed his determination to be fair this time, so this term is expected to be the most popular. Du Shiyi did not expect that the scholar who was sent to Daizhou could be more brilliant, but he remembered that his junior brother Yan Zhenqing was the fourth in the Jingzhao Prefecture Examination this time. As the top ten, he participated in the provincial examination and met He Zhizhang's tribute. If he failed the exam again, it would be God's will torture.
"Don't put gilds on my face. It's the credit of the Ministry of Honor for the Talents. I just mentioned it. Even if some people are grateful to me, some people hate me." Du Shiyi answered casually, and then asked, "What's the matter I asked you to inquire about?"
Although he was on the road, he was carefully selected by himself. Chibi took another step forward, almost only one horse head behind Du Shiyi, and his voice was extremely low: "Pei Xiangguo's illness seems to be very bad."
Pei Guangting was ten years younger than Xiao Song. It can be said that it was the time when he was young and strong. This disease suddenly became unhealthy, and Du Shiyi couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable. Even though he believed in Chibi's loyalty and ability, he couldn't help staring at him for a while, and then said softly to himself: "Why is this so?"
"How come this is the case?"
Not only did Du Shiyi feel shocked when he heard that Pei Guangting was in a serious condition and was about to lose his temper, but even the Pei family could not accept this fact.
Pei Guangting's wife Wu, as Wu Sansi's daughter, was once named Princess and enjoyed the glory of countless people who worshipped her. However, she also experienced her father's murder, all her brothers died, and her sisters were afraid of being divorced by her husband's family. If she had not married a scholar-official like Pei Guangting, if Pei Xingjian had not passed away, both the Pei family and the son were trusted by Empress Wu and had some incense for Wu, maybe she would have been no longer today. Although she had been secretly celebrating music with Li Linfu for a year or two, she was holding her husband's hand tightly and she was crying like rain in front of the bed, so what else could she have made of her proposal?
"My mother, the doctor also said that if you only need to rest, you will be able to recover slowly." Pei Zhen, the eldest son of Pei Guangting, couldn't help but persuade her mother when she saw her mother's pear blossoms were raining. Seeing that Wu still wiped her tears, he could only look at the old mother and suggested that the latter forced Wu to help her out. When he arrived at the bed, he saw that his father had been dying from Luoyang to Chang'an, and he couldn't help but whisper, "Why is this trouble with Grandpa? If you were like the Duke of Guangping County, you would first ask for a doctor in the East Capital for medicine, and if you don't go through such bumps, you might be able to..."
"Silly" Pei Guangting cursed hard. Seeing Pei Zhen shut up, he said in a weak voice, "Xiao Song has been incompatible with me for a day or two. If I retire due to illness and lose my favor in the future, not only will I not be able to protect my children and grandchildren, but all the people I use will be moved by leftists. I am ten years younger than him. If I can't stand this level, then everything will be done. Instead of retiring from illness, I'm better off trying to survive.
Pei Zhen did not expect that his father was so stubborn, and he couldn't help but have nothing to say. Just when he wanted to find a few words to comfort Pei Guangting, his father's voice came from his ears again.
"Now you can choose the door to open?"
"Yes, the quota has been opened this evening, and the next step is to send the provincial and provincial officials."
"Okay, okay" Pei Guangting took a deep breath, signaling Pei Zhen to sit up. Seeing his son's face full of worry, he shook his head and said, "You don't have to say much. Now I am the only one in the disciple, and there is no subordinate minister. Although Feng Shaolie always relies on me, if I am not here, how can he withstand Xiao Song alone? What's more, he is not a subordinate minister, and he has presided over the official title. Go and tell the doctor, it's fine to have a few days left in the first lunar month, and I must come back as a director in the early February. It doesn't matter if I have selected a official, I will never let go."
