16, to become famous
() You must know that it is extremely rare at any time to award a civil servant like Tai Lecheng, the top scholar in the Jinshi examination. Although the Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty were not as noble as those in later generations, the Jinshi in the imperial examination was
It is still the most noble in the category.
Tai Lecheng, as a ministerial official from the eighth rank, is first of all lower in rank than the left and right Supplements from the eighth rank, and a Jinshi who starts from the left and right Supplies is already considered low in rank, and a person like Du Fu who has not been in the middle
Those who have passed the Jinshi level all started their official career from Zuo Shiyi.
Although Zuo Shiyi was only a minor official from the eighth rank, his duty was to provide advice, recommend talents, and had the power to directly submit memorials to the emperor, while Tai Le Cheng was only responsible for ritual and music matters in the court.
The official position is completely a sinecure.
Although today's official positions are not as clear as the turbid current in the Ming Dynasty, in a sense, Zuo Shiyi is the clear flow, and Tai Lecheng is the turbid flow. Of course, noble officials will be promoted quickly. Since the supplements have direct memorials to
The emperor's power, when the memorial meets the emperor's appetite, maybe it is simple in the emperor's heart, and combined with the real political achievements, the speed of promotion should not be too fast.
For example, Yuan Qianyao, who was once the prime minister and then came to power to make way for Song Jing, came to power in this way. His memorial won the favor of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Coupled with his own ability and political achievements, his official career was prosperous.
After becoming the governor, he served as Jingzhaoyin (equivalent to the mayor of the capital). His family is still very prosperous, and there is a high possibility of another revival.
And what promotion potential does an official position like Taile Cheng have? Not to mention that it is the time when Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty is working hard to govern and has not yet indulged in vocal music. In the future, even if he does a great job in the official position of Taile Cheng
, maybe he will be even more despised and considered by the emperor to be a more advanced actor.
From the joy of being the top scholar in a new subject to the frustration when selecting candidates for official appointments, Wang Wei's emotions can be said to have experienced great joy and great sorrow. When he woke up, he realized that the sky outside was already slightly bright. He sat down from the comfortable big bed.
He stood up with a gloomy expression on his face.
Wang Wei did not completely forget last night's dream that seemed to predict the future after waking up. Instead, he recalled it more and more clearly. He even vividly remembered the various poems that "himself" had written in order to become famous.
Although Wang Wei didn't believe in fate, it was undoubtedly what he wanted to do to avoid walking on the same path as in the dream. He was so scheming that he even guessed that last night's dream should belong to the tragic career of Wang Wei in history.
However, this dream also awakened Wang Wei. It turned out that the imperial examinations of this era actually had so many shady hidden rules, which were simply incomparable to the imperial examination systems and regulations of the Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty in the future. Therefore, while improving his own quality, Wang Wei also
I am also thinking about which route I should pursue to ensure I get the first place.
Wang Wei, who had already experienced failure once in his dream, did not want to experience that loss so clearly again, especially since he still shouldered the hopes of the Wang family in Hedong, and an official position was so precious that he was extremely eager to obtain it.
it.
Wang Wei got up a little irritably, put on his own clothes, and prepared to go out for morning exercise. Although he tried his best to downplay the influence of the dream, the clear and vivid dream really made Wang Wei unhappy. However, he had strong self-control and the look on his face remained the same.
Shen Jing comforted himself in his heart that this was the golden finger that predicted his future trajectory. Anyway, he would never follow the footsteps of the dream.
Since in the dream, I took the first imperial examination three years later, why don't I take the imperial examination two years in advance now?
Wang Wei thought this was an excellent idea. If possible, he would even want to participate in this year's imperial examination. However, the imperial examination is held in January every year. It is already March and the imperial examination has ended long ago, so he can only participate in next year's imperial examination.
And as long as he did this, he completely overturned yesterday's vivid dream almost instantly. Moreover, since he knew the shady story of the current imperial examination, he knew that the real decision to be on the list was the powerful people behind it.
It's just one of the necessary conditions.
Now that he had made this decision, Wang Wei immediately thought of what the first thing he should do was to hype himself up and become famous in Chang'an.
Wei Zhi also woke up very early today. After washing up, he took a walk in his house. He accidentally discovered that Wang Wei was practicing swordsmanship. He couldn't help but stop and watch, nodding secretly in his heart. It seemed that this Thirteenth Prince was not only talented in literature and art, but also a talented person.
He also has good swordsmanship. This swordsmanship is not gorgeous and eye-catching, but simple and practical. It is actually a killing swordsmanship.
At this time, the sky was bright. Unknowingly, Wang Wei had been practicing hard for an hour. Soon he noticed Wei Zhi, who was watching him from the side. His appearance was still so grand. He was standing there alone, but there was a group of people behind him.
People serve with great care.
Seeing Wang Wei put away his sword, Wei Zhi stepped forward and praised: "I didn't expect Thirteenth Lang to have such good swordsmanship. He is really good at both civil and military skills."
They were obviously words of praise, but Wei Zhi's arrogant and cold tone always made people feel like he was being sarcastic. However, Wang Wei knew that this was indeed a sincere compliment from his friend. He casually said a few words of modesty, and after finishing his morning exercises, he took a shower.
After changing clothes and having breakfast at Wei's house, I was about to go to Taixue to resume my studies, but my mind was already thinking about how to use my previous incident of "taking off my clothes to hide my merit and fame".
Wei Zhi also took advantage of the opportunity to accompany Wang Wei to the Imperial Academy in the Imperial College. Although he was already an official and could "come out" to become an official at any time, at this time he was still in the stage of raising his family, and he was different from those who were quite influential among the Imperial Academy.
Socializing with well-known scholars will undoubtedly cultivate his reputation, and when he is bored, reading some weird magazines in the beautiful pavilions and pavilions of Taixue is also a kind of enjoyment.
Generally speaking, most of those who get the rank of Jinshi and enjoy the literary name are born in the two prisons. The two prisons are the Chang'an Imperial College and the Luoyang Imperial College. When choosing, the examiner also intentionally favors the new students. If the Jinshi is not born in the two prisons, then
He was deeply ashamed, so in order to prevent this invisible discrimination from affecting fairness, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered that everyone in the world should pay for school.
However, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty has not issued this order yet, so Wang Wei, who was born as a disciple of two supervisors, will undoubtedly have some advantages in participating in the imperial examination at this time.
Since he is going to Taixue, Wei Zhi will certainly not bring a large group of people with him. His luxury and exquisiteness are only in his own home. If he did not regard Wang Wei as a close friend, he would not openly treat himself
His emphasis on life was shown, and when he saw Wang Wei admiring his pomp, he felt extremely happy and felt like a close friend.
In fact, Wang Wei just longed for one day to be able to master supreme power and enjoy it at will. He had to admit that Wang Wei, who had no official status, was inferior to Wei Zhi. In the memory of Wang Wei in the past,
I once saw Wei Zhi wearing a pale crimson fifth-grade official robe with a gold belt, which undoubtedly made the current Wang Wei envious.
When many candidates were struggling to get a good official from the Ministry of Personnel, and when many officials wasted half their lives to get to the sixth rank of Langguan, Wei Zhi had already passed the sixth rank with the help of his remaining shade.
Once you reach the fifth grade, you can reach the sky in one step once you wait for a noble official.
However, Wang Wei knew that Wei Zhi didn't care at all about the class gap between the two, so he also went along with it and socialized with Wei Zhi casually, neither humble nor overbearing. This undoubtedly played into Wei Zhi's plans, and Wang Wei did not move along the way.
Under the atmosphere created by the sound, the two of them could be said to have a very happy conversation, which further led Wei Zhi to introduce Wang Wei as a confidant.
Chang'an Taixue was built in Wubenfang, which is some distance away from Changlefang where the Wei family is located, so the two of them rode to the Taixue. When they walked to the street between Yongxingfang and Anxingfang, they happened to
I met some officials from the Chang Dynasty. The so-called Chang Dynasty is an ordinary court meeting. Only civil and military officials of the fifth rank and above, as well as supervisory censors, Yuanwailang, and Dr. Taichang can participate. In contrast, there are still
There are major dynasties, which are held on the first and fifteenth day of every month. All ministers in Beijing with grades above nine can participate.
Among the officials of the lower dynasty, Dr. Taichang He Zhizhang happened to be among them. He was also riding a horse. He was wearing a light green seventh-grade official robe, embroidered with the unique pattern of the seventh-grade official robe. His expression was a little tired, but
As an official who has to attend the Chang'an Dynasty, he has to get up at five o'clock, but yesterday he went for an outing outside Chang'an City, and encountered something that shocked him. If it hadn't been for the queen named Wang Wei,
Students, the situation is probably going to be even worse.
And He Zhizhang didn't know why, but at a glance he saw Wang Wei and another young man passing by slowly on horseback. His tired look was swept away. The impression Wang Wei had on him yesterday was too deep. He first drew his bow and fired.
He killed a few hungry wolves, then entered the wolf pack with his sword, killed the wolves and drove them away lightly, and then walked away without leaving his name. Wang Wei's tall figure undoubtedly remained deeply in He Zhizhang's memory.
in mind.
As a typical literati, He Zhizhang undoubtedly felt that yesterday's scene had the color of a legendary story. When he returned home, he drank several jars of fine wine and then wrote several poems in succession to vent the surge in his heart.
However, even so, he felt that it would not make him feel at ease if he did not thank Wang Wei in person.
When he was thinking about going to the imperial court, he went to Taixue, but he didn't expect to meet Wang Wei directly on the road. He was always open-minded and uninhibited and didn't care about any false etiquette, so he rode his horse up to Wang Wei and Wei Zhi without any hesitation.
before.
As a seventh-grade Dr. Taichang, He Zhizhang is only a part-time official, but this official position is different from Tai Lecheng, who has no potential.
He would have the privilege of participating in the Chang Dynasty, and although He Zhizhang's personality was open-minded and unruly, he was not arrogant, so most officials had a good relationship with this famous scholar who moved the world.
Therefore, He Zhizhang's actions immediately aroused the curiosity of many officials in the lower court. They wanted to know what there was about these two scholars that He Zhizhang should care about.
