Chapter 319 The Beginning

There are nearly 300 new Jinshi, and less than 30 people selected as Shujishi. Qian Yuan has carefully counted the remaining people.

More than 80 people decided not to enter the government for various reasons, most of whom have left Beijing, about 50 of them are old and sick, and one of them even died of illness after the palace examination was released.

Most of the remaining 200 Jinshi were thrown into various departments to observe politics, and in the words of later generations, they were internships. After all, most of them were nerds who only knew how to study. They chose some capable people or related officials from them, and others could only endure it.

Of course, the most important reason is that there are not so many official positions.

Speaking of which, there were two capitals and one thirteen provinces in the Ming Dynasty, and there were many official positions, but in fact, there were not many vacancies.

The imperial examination will be held every three years, and 300 people will be won in one subject, which means that 100 positions will be vacant every year. This is too difficult... Nie Bao is an example. He passed the Jinshi in the twelve years of Zhengde, but he has been in the political field for three years. It took Zhengde 15 years to make up for the vacancies and was appointed as the magistrate of Huating.

Therefore, about half of these two hundred Jinshi will endure hard until they get out of the vacancy or establish the relationship between the Ministry of Personnel.

After all, only half of the 300 Jinshi have entered the official career, and they may not be less than half.

"Brother Junze wants to conduct the People's Office?" Qian Yuan looked around and pulled Zhu Dashou to the corner, "Don't he want to go to the Ministry of War?"

"But where is the vacancy?" Zhu Dashou said helplessly: "The Ministry of War is also in chaos now."

Wu Dui was the oldest among the scholars in Suiyuan. He was calm and moderate in character, and was quite well versed in military tactics. When he was studying in the Imperial College, he made many remarks about border affairs. He was appreciated by two ministers of the Ministry of War Nie Bao and Yang Bo, and had long made up his mind to join the Ministry of War.

Qian Yuan had an impression of the name Wu Dui because Wu Dui had been the governor of Ji Liao and had a friendship with the famous San Niangzi, so he naturally supported Wu Dui to join the Ministry of War as the head of the Ministry of War.

But the problem is that the Ministry of War is in chaos now. Yang Bo Dingyou, the one who took over the position of the Ministry of War should be Wang Minying, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, but the one who succeeded in the end was Xu Lun, the military affairs of Datong, who was in charge of the Xuanfu, and Xu Lun, in Xu Wei's words... his brains were almost out, and he was all a bunch of bureaucrats.

"Pedestrians..." Qian Yuan smacked his lips, "After all, he is a second-class Jinshi. Is it too much to go to the Pedestrians..."

The Trailer Office was a unique organization in the Ming Dynasty, responsible for delivering imperial edicts, enthrones, imperial edicts, relief and sacrifice. It was a job of running errands. There were only three people in the Si Zheng and the Si Deputy, but there were 345 pedestrians below.

Well, Qian Yuan once guessed that he was working on this institution just because he was afraid that there would be no place for those Jinshi... The "Ming Dynasty Collection" clearly stipulates that pedestrians must be from Jinshi.

Generally, a Jinshi who is a little bit ambitious would rather go to the pedestrian department than to be in a lack of political agenda.

In the Hanlin Courtyard, there were many people gathered together to talk in groups of three or three. Xu Wei also came over and whispered after listening: "Except for Yunnan and Guizhou, other places, the magistrates of other places, the county magistrates and officials of the county magistrates and officials in the county were basically robbed, and most of the heads of the departments were filled. The rest could only endure hard, and Junze had no choice but to do anything."

Among the scholars in Suiyuan, five people entered the Hanlin Academy. Some of the remaining people entered Dali Temple a month later, some entered Taichang Temple, and some entered the Six Ministry. Lu Yipeng, Yang Quan and others were released. Only Wu Dui was left but not yet selected officials.

This is also Qian Yuan's selfish intention. Those who release the people are friends they have made in this life, and most of the people who stay in the capital are those he had heard of in his previous life. Otherwise, it would be not difficult to find a county magistrate for Wu Dui with Qian Yuan's connections.

Xu Wei snorted, "You asked him to wait, but I didn't wait until now!"

"Wen Chang, before Zhan Cai..." Zhu Dashou frowned and said, "All friends who have been with each other for many years, what are you saying?"

Before, Qian Yuan had found Master Xing and got a position to be in charge of the Ministry of War arsenal. Unfortunately, Wu Dui was not selected, but Sun Ying was selected.

Qian Yuan has no choice but to do anything now. The Ministry of War is in chaos, but the big bosses in the court don’t reach out... The reason is very simple. The Japanese turmoil in the southeast has not subsided yet, and there are already chieftains in the southwest. Just now, news came that Xin Ai, the son of Altan, led his troops to surround the Right Acropolis of Datong. The current Ministry of War is just a pot of hot oil, and no one dares to touch it.

And the reason why Mongolia encircled Datong... Yang Shun, Governor of Xuanda, kidnapped Altan Khan's son Xin Ai's favorite concubine. It's really weird!

"Why don't you change the place?" Qian Yuan asked tentatively: "How is Taichang Temple?"

Xu Wei was about to roll his eyes, but a few colleagues passed by and were talking excitedly.

"Brother Bai Sheng offended whom... This is the case at this time!"

"Who knows that Shizhou Gong only transferred to Youchunfang Youyude two years ago, and served as a sacrificial wine last year... I'm afraid that someone behind him can't stand it anymore, right?"

"Siye?"

"God knows... Jingcha has always been anonymous!"

"I remember Brother Bai Sheng fought with people in the Hanlin Academy and was extremely powerful..."

The person who said this last sentence was overjoyed, probably because he was gloating.

Xu Wei and Qian Yuan looked at each other, and they all knew that this was saying that Shen Kun, the priest of the Imperial College, was named Baisheng and the nickname was Shizhou. Before the palace examination was released, they had visited the Imperial College. What happened?

Three quarters of an hour later, Sun Cheng found out the news.

"It is said that Shizhou Gong was angry and beaten his servants to death a few days ago." Sun Yan whispered: "But that was not a servant of the Shen family, but a native of the capital. He was just because his family was poor and he was working in the Shen family, not a slave."

Xu Wei and Zhu Dashou were speechless, but they were exposed during the inspection of Beijing, and Shen Kun deserved to be unlucky.

Qian Yuan asked back, "Who exposed it?"

Xu Wei also reacted, "Is it the Ministry of Personnel?"

"No, the Ministry of Revenue is in charge." After all, Sun Yan had a father of the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and he was very clear about it. "He is also a new Jinshi, the 15th second-tier senior. I remember meeting twice, Lin Run and Lin Ruoyu... By the way, Zhan Cai mentioned it once."

Qian Yuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he was actually the upright and impartial Lin Run, who was not afraid of the powerful. He had carefully read the list of Jinshi in this subject. Apart from the scholars in Suiyuan, there were not many people who had an impression of him. Wang Shimao was one, Zou Yinglong was one, and Lin Run was one.

In history books, Yan Shifan was demoted and returned home, which was Lin Run who gave Yan Shifan the last fatal blow, which left him famous in history.

Qian Yuan touched his chin, "Lin Run...Lin Run...seems to be from Fujian?"

Xu Wei's face changed and he whispered: "Li Shiyan is crazy?!"

"Not necessarily...not necessarily." Qian Yuan paced back and forth a few steps. He didn't believe that Lin Run would join Li Mo's disciple, and the more likely it was that someone had designed it.

"Let's go back to Suiyuan." Qian Yuan pulled the person to Suiyuan quickly and asked Sun Jian, Sun Ying, and Tao Dalin to go and inquire carefully.

"This morning, six ministries reported the murder case of Shen Kun. The Tongzheng Department picked up the impeachment memorial submitted by the Ministry of Revenue to Lin Run, a clerk yesterday." Qian Yuan summed up the information and said slowly: "But I asked someone to ask, Shen Kun killed someone...at least a month ago."

"It's probably because someone has designed it." Xu Wei blurted out, "Who will it be?"

"Li Shiyan?"

"strict?"

"Xu?"

Qian Yuan touched his nose and shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I'm sure, this matter is not over yet."

Qian Yuan had a vague thought in his mind. It is likely that this was the starting point of the incident, but who did it?

The next moment, Qian Yuan made a judgment by the news brought by his uncle Qian Zheng who entered the door.

"Shen Kun wrote a letter to resign and give a sacrifice to the Imperial College?" Qian Yuan repeated word by word.

"Not bad." Qian Zheng nodded and looked at the five people in the room.

Qian Yuan thought quickly in his mind and smiled: "Uncle, I guess after Shen Kun wrote a letter to resign, the Tongzhengsi received a lot of memorials?"

"Yes." Qian Zheng was a little surprised, "but it happened to be released, and the Tongzheng envoy sealed the memorial and submitted it to Xiyuan Zhilu tomorrow."

"Zhancai, what's wrong?" Sun Ying asked urgently.

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say." Qian Yuan picked up the teacup and put it beside his mouth, but he didn't drink it for a while. "It should be Yan Donglou... No, it should be Yan Fenyi, it's linked together, it's really a good method!"

"Don't worry, wait for tomorrow."

"Let Brother Junze wait a little longer, maybe the result will be achieved in the next few days. Even if the Ministry of War is not good, the Ministry of Personnel will always have a position."
