Just as Shi De was about to take the carriage back, he saw Xiahoumen and Xunbao also coming out, and the three of them crowded into Shide's carriage. The charioteers of Xiahoumen and Xunbao drove their empty carriages behind.

Followed. Both of them admired Shi for being so smart and finishing such a difficult question so quickly. They were talking about today's test. Because the test was over, no matter what the result was, it finally came to an end, so it was almost

People are very relaxed.

Xiahou Mendao: "In all the previous examinations, the questions have been fixed. But this time in the "Book of Songs" test, the last question was unique. The examiners asked them to write a poem that they each thought was the best and make comments. What did you write?

head?"

Xun Baodao: "What I wrote is "Peach Blossom" in "Zhou Nan", 'The peach blossoms shine brightly. When the son returns, it is suitable for his family...' I hope to have such a girl who can follow

I am 'suitable for my home'."

Xiahoumen and Shi De both laughed: "Brother Xun, what do you mean? With Brother Xun's talents and family fortune, are you still worried about not having a good girl?"

"There are too many girls and too few that catch my eye." Xun Bao sighed, turned around and asked Shi De, "What about you?"

"I wrote the song "Shuo Ren" in "Wei Feng"."

"Hands are like soft pancreas, skin is like condensed fat..." At that moment, Shi De thought of the Ru River, as if he saw the woman he made fun of because of this poem - the woman who was at odds with him as a scholar and a commoner.

, the woman who is separated from him by yin and yang, the woman that he obviously likes, but is destined not to be together.

"Why are you laughing at me? Brother Shi is also writing about beauties, they are each other." Xun Bao pointed at Shi De and said.

Xiahoumen laughed loudly: "It seems that everyone is the same. What I wrote is "Jianjia" in "Qin Feng", 'Jianjia is green, and the white dew is frost. The so-called beauty is on the side of the water...'. A few years ago in Ru

When Yin met that strange woman, Mr. Shi blurted out this poem, and the artistic conception will be unforgettable for the rest of his life."

Shi Desui remembered what Xiahoumen said a few days ago about the strange woman in Ruyin, and asked Xiahoumen: "There is such a strange woman in my hometown? What is her name?"

"You don't need to ask what her name is. You live in Ruyin City, how can you meet a poor girl from the countryside!"

"Yes, I never associate with a woman from a poor family, but I would like to hear what's different about that woman?"

"Although that woman was born into a poor family, she has a strong sense of integrity. It is not too much to use Mencius' words to describe a true man: 'Wealth and honor cannot be kinky, poverty and lowliness cannot be moved, and power cannot bend' to describe her. She is indeed a gentleman among women."

Most of the topics of wealthy young men are anecdotes about unofficial history, and they never discuss things like daily necessities, rice, oil, and salt. When Shi De and Xun Bao heard this, they both said, "I would like to hear the details."

Seeing that they were so interested, Xiahoumen felt proud and recounted the experience: "After the Ping Wu that year, the army's commander-in-chief, Master Shi and I returned by boat together. Of course, we were separated from the military servicemen.

He was traveling in a boat. He wandered all the way. When he reached the boundary of Ruyin, Mr. Shi suddenly found a beauty on the shore. At that time, he was attracted by this beauty.

This beauty was so fascinated that she wanted to get acquainted with her, but she was unfamiliar with the place and no one recommended her. Also, she was afraid of missing the military order, so she didn't dare to stay too long, so she left with regret. But Mr. Shi threw his hands and stamped his feet, sighing.

.I saw that he was so anxious, so I gave him some advice and asked him to wait for the opportunity. Sooner or later, he would surely bring the beauty back. As a result, the next year, His Majesty wanted to pick up Sun Hao.

Five thousand concubines from Luoyang entered Luoyang. Now the opportunity came. Mr. Shi and I devised a clever plan. When we came out of Luoyang and passed Ruyin, we secretly sent people to go there. When we came back, the concubine had been captured.

After being coaxed, they were taken to Shi's mansion. Both of them knew that if the Shi family considered themselves second in terms of wealth, no one in the world would dare to admit that they were number one. I thought that the poor girl would get in.

In the Shi Mansion, she must have felt like she had been reborn and reached the sky in one step. In addition, Mr. Shi was crazy about her, so she must have been overjoyed and flattered. But who would have thought that the girl was not moved at all, and put the silk and satin in her eyes,

She turned a blind eye to the gold, silver, pearls and jade. Mr. Shi saw that gold and silver could not impress her, so he wanted to be tough, but if he showed any toughness, the girl would threaten death..."

Just as he said this, the carriage stopped and Xiahou Mansion had arrived. Shi De thought that the woman's conduct was somewhat noble, but it could not be said to be that strange, so he stopped asking further questions.

In the past two days, Shu Yan, Ye Chong, Ge Shen and others were waiting for the results of the test in Hanshu Inn. The imperial court stipulated that one must be able to pass one or more of the Five Classics to be considered qualified. Shu Yan listened to their tone and answered.

I was very confident that I would pass the test. On the day when the results were released, all the students from the Imperial College and Xiaolian came to visit. Although the exams were taken in the same session, the results were listed separately.

In front of the list of Xiaolian Branch, Shu Yan was looking for his name. Xiao Mo saw it at a glance and shouted in surprise: "Brother Shu, where else are you looking? You are the first one!" Shu Yan took a look and saw that his name was on the list.

As expected, the name appeared on the top of the list. Although Shu Yan had been a little sure in his heart before, he couldn't help but feel happy at this time. He looked down again and found that Ye Chong and Ge Shen's names also appeared on the list.

"Now that's good, Brother Ye and Brother Ge are also on the list." Overjoyed, he turned around and looked over there again, and found that the list of Taipei students was divided into three subjects: A, B, and C. He looked at

I looked at the list of Section C, but there were no familiar names. Then I looked at the list of Section B, and the names of Xun Bao and Xiahoumen were on it.

While I was watching, I suddenly saw Shi De also present and asked quickly: "Brother Shi, how are you? Have you passed?"

Shi De smiled disdainfully, "Humph, can I pass it? Not only did I pass it, but I also got the top spot in Section A. What do you think?"

Before Shi De could say anything, Xiao Mo rushed to say, "Brother Shu also passed. Not only did he pass, but he also ranked first." After saying that, he said "hum".

"That's good, but don't be too happy too early. On the way to becoming an official, this examination is only the first step. The next step is to go through the evaluation of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and finally you will be conferred by the Ministry of Personnel. Are you sure?

?”

"Are you sure?"

"I don't need to tell you this. I just want to ask you, do you know our Ruyin Ji Zhongzheng?"

"I don't know."

"Haha, then you don't even know the Dazhong Zhengguan of Yuzhou and the people in the Situ Mansion and the Civil Service Department?"

"I don't know each other, so what?"

"In that case, I would advise you that it is better to go back to your hometown in Ruyin and work as a literary publisher like you."

At this time, Ye Chong and Ge Shen also came over and said: "We are all upright people and can take the exam with peace of mind. Why do we need to know them."

"You guys! Hey, I forgot, the generals in each county are all from the noble family, how can they have contact with you humble people!"

Shu Yan knew that Shi De had always spoken openly and had a good heart. This was somewhat similar to Xiao Mo's quick talk, but there was an essential difference.

No matter what the result will be in the future, at least it is a step towards victory now. Shu Yan, Ye Chong, Ge Shen and Xiao Mo bought wine together to celebrate in Hanshu Inn.

Ye Chong asked: "I heard that in the "Book of Songs" exam, Tai students and Xiao Lian had a common topic, and they freely wrote one of the poems. Brother Shu, Brother Ge, which one did you write?"

Ge Shen said: "I wrote the poem "Shuo Rat" in "Wei Feng" because I hate those corrupt officials the most. They are just like the Shuo Rat in the poem, they are insatiable and insatiable."

Shu Yan slapped the table: "Excellent, that's a good metaphor. The words in the poem, 'When you pass away, you will be in a paradise land' are both very good and very helpless."

Ge Shen asked: "Brother Ye, what did you write?"

Ye Chung said: "I wrote "Guan Ju" because "Guan Ju" is not only the first poem at the beginning, but also readable and catchy, 'Guan Guan Ju Jiu, in the river continent. A graceful lady, a gentleman is a good man.

.’ Even Confucius said it was ‘happy but not obscene, sad but not sad’.”

Shu Yan nodded and said, "Yeah, I heard that this poem is the most popular one."

Ye and Ge asked: "Brother Shu, what did you write?"

""Drumming" from "Bei Feng"."

Before Ye and Ge could speak, Xiao Mo rushed to ask: "What kind of poem is this?"

Ge Shen said: "The surface meaning of this poem seems to be describing the war, but in fact it is describing the man's anxiety about missing his sweetheart whom he has not seen for a long time."

Xiao Mo asked again: "What's so good about this poem?"

Ye Chung said: "The other sentences in this poem are not very exciting. Only this sentence, 'The relationship between life and death is broad, and it is said to the child. Hold the hand of the child, and grow old together with the child.' It is written sincerely and sincerely, but it is also romantic and romantic, so

It has become a good saying that has been passed down through the ages. It seems that Brother Shu must have a beloved woman in his hometown, hahahaha."

Xiao Mo said nothing and stared at Shu Yan blankly. At this time, Shu Yan's mind had already returned to the scene when he said goodbye to Zhixin. After saying these two lines of poetry, it turned out to be a farewell scene. Over the past few years, these two lines have been

Poetry has become sixteen drops of blood in his heart.

Ye Chong and Ge Shen didn't know the inside story. They thought Shu Yan was a young man who had been separated from his sweetheart for a long time, which caused them to miss each other, so they didn't care. They just drank. Some were happy and some were sad. Someone here took the wine.

There are people there who drink to drown their sorrows. Those imperial students and filial piety students who failed to pass will be sent home. They can only shake their heads and sigh. Even the people who recommended them will be implicated.

Cao of the Ministry of Civil Affairs compiled the lists of imperial students and Xiaolian who passed the policy examination and handed them over to the Zhongzheng officials of each county for evaluation. The Zhongzheng evaluation agency is composed of a Zhongzheng official and several visiting officers under his subordinates. "Zhongzheng" is as the name suggests.

, means impartiality and fair evaluation; "visit" means inspection and inquiry, and it is Sasuke Zhongzheng who does a good job in evaluating officials. However, these are all beautiful things that are taken for granted.

The Zhongzheng system is not only huge, but also has a high status, but there is no dedicated Zhongzheng official office. These Zhongzheng officials are all concurrently held by current officials, and then they regularly evaluate local figures. The Zhongzheng official in Ruyin is named Ji Si. This Ji Zhongzheng

His real position is that of an officer of the Weiwei.

The administrative hierarchy in the Jin Dynasty was generally followed that of the Han Dynasty, including states, counties, counties, townships, etc. The country was divided into nineteen states and one hundred and seventy-three counties. Each of the nineteen states had a state capital, that is, a Dazhongzhengguan.

Name; each county has a small official. For officials who are not important

As well as these new officials, they often do not need to be evaluated by the Yuzhou Dazhongzheng, only the county Zhongzheng. Therefore, except for a few people such as Shi De's father Shi Hui, who are personally evaluated by the Yuzhou Dazhongzheng, such as Shu Yan, Shi

All the others will be judged by Ruyin Xiaozhong Zhengji Si.

Ji Si has several books of Ruyin officials in his hand. The books record the resumes of these people, their family backgrounds, the official titles of their ancestors and other information. Among the many materials, Ji Si takes the books of Shu Yan and Shi De separately.

Come out and look at it in detail. Although these two people are new

people, but these two people are quite special. Shi De is from the Shi family, a wealthy family in the local area, and Shi Hui has already greeted him in advance; as for Shu Yan, although he comes from a poor family, Shu Yan’s reputation is too great, and among you

It has long been spread among Yin's fellow villagers, and Ji Si has heard about it a long time ago.

Ji Si had known about Shi De's family background for a long time. His ancestors had hereditary titles and had served as officials. They belonged to wealthy families for generations. In particular, Shi Hui was still the minister of Sanqi next to the emperor. Let's look at Shu Yan's family background. In addition to

Except for his grandfather, Shu Boguang, who was a doctor of imperial studies in the previous dynasty, no one in his family had ever held an official position. They were all common people and had come from a poor family for generations. In terms of family background, the two families of Shi and Shu were completely different.

When Zhongzheng officials evaluate people, they mainly examine two aspects. In addition to the family background of the person being criticized, they also examine the behavior, moral character, and abilities of the person being criticized. In theory, family background is only used as a reference, while moral character and ability are the main aspects. In practice,
