Beiyang new warlord

"Teaching is not bad, teaching is not bad! Daddy is the best! In the future, Yu'er will also find a husband like Daddy!"

Waving the bone of the chicken leg in a milky voice, the father's little padded jacket hurriedly helped Mao Jue to distinguish it, which immediately caused the whole table to look at each other. A few seconds later, except for the helpless Su Yi, the girls were covering their little Mouth roared with laughter.

Mao Jue himself had a face like a bitter gourd, shaking his head sadly.

"Yu! When you choose a husband and son-in-law in the future, don't choose a philandering radish like your father! You must choose someone who is dedicated! It's good for you alone! If he dares to find another woman, beat him to death Kick him again, you know?"

It's really a complete double standard. Seeing Yu'er nodding in a daze while holding the drumstick, the princesses were speechless.

When Mao Jue was busy with family affairs, his subordinates were not busy. Amidst the sighs of those officials, the Ministry of Rites came to work overtime all night, once again showing Dongjiang's efficiency.

If it was the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty, the exam would take three days, review, preview, and try to delay the time for the examinees and scholars to get involved. This would take more than a month. When the results are released, maybe two months will pass.

But this time Enke, on the third day after the exam, the test papers for the [-] scholars had already been approved, and early in the morning of the third day, the imperial list was released again in the notices all over the city.

It is an unprecedented opportunity. As long as the six thousand candidates for the examination are finished answering the papers, they will not be so bookish, not so cynical, not even so idiotic, and have some political potential, all of them will be admitted. A record since then, more than 880 Jinshi were admitted at one time.

There is no way, Mao Jue is too short of officials, Mr. Zhu who established the Ming Dynasty is too careful, and the number of officials in the whole country is only [-]. As a result, a large number of local powers are seized by local clans. The roots spread, and finally emptied the state's rights. The tragedy during the Chongzhen period was also a manifestation of the imbalance of the state's rights.

A county with a population of tens of thousands or even tens of thousands, just one county magistrate, one magistrate who doesn't care about things, and a county magistrate with more than a dozen yamen servants, can he manage it?

Looking at future generations, a town still needs to have a mayor, senior town officials, town security office, culture office, water conservancy office, and a lot of other departments. Although Mao Jue can't manage so finely, he must take back the real power of the county-level units.

Now let’s not talk about Jiangnan, for the north, this is an unprecedented opportunity at this time, and I have to thank Li Zicheng. In his Dashun army, most of the northern aristocratic families were destroyed by him, and it was the establishment of strict rule. Timing, it will take a lot of officers to make it happen!

Not hundreds or thousands, but tens of thousands!

It is also due to this policy that a large number of scholars are extremely excited to gather around to find their names in front of the densely packed list, some shouted ecstatically, some knelt on the ground and kowtowed their heads, and some It was a few times in a row, and then sat on the ground in a daze.

"Young master, no!"

The eyes of the two book boys in Tsing Yi were all dazzled, and they searched four times in a row, and finally came back shaking their heads full of disappointment. Looking at the dense crowd, Dong Shiyun's face was livid with anger, don't look at the haughtiness in his mouth, for He was still extremely eager for the official position of Daming, full of resentment, the grandson of the great Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River roared angrily.

"Black list! Unjust management of the country! Only those who abandon it will not be used! The prime minister of subjugation! Hmph!"

"Uncle Liu, let's go!"

Not only was he lost, but Liu Botao was also full of loss. Although he tried not to think about it these few days, the hope was still entangled in his heart like a poisonous snake, but today he searched for his name several times, but he still found nothing. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and that disappointment also lingered in his mind.

His whole body seemed to be drained of strength, and he didn't know how to hold his dioramas even if they were crooked. Liu Botao was weak, and walked out with his arms drooping, following Dong Shiyun's tone like calling a dog.

Sure enough, even in the Regent era, officials are not something people like me can expect!

But when Liu Botao was full of disappointment, the tinkling gongs suddenly rang out, and as the gongs and drums were beating, more than a dozen officials from the Ministry of Rituals came out with big red flowers leading their horses, facing The crowd of scholars and scholars gathered at the gate of the Gongyuan shouted loudly.

"The regent appointed Wu Juncai, the number one scholar in Liucheng! Second place in Shaoxing, Liu Botao! Li Guoyong, the capital of China! All great talents are among the crowd, please show up quickly!"

For a moment, Liu Botao felt as if a lightning strike hit him, full of disbelief, he turned his head tremblingly!

Chapter 6. There are many officials here, and people are stupid, come quickly!

"The second best talent Liu Botao!"

"Is Liu Botao, the second best talent, here?"

"The second best talent Liu Botao???"

Both the champion and Tanhua went up, until a few officials from the Ministry of Rituals shouted for the third time, and Liu Botao, who was dumbfounded below, suddenly realized, took two quick steps and raised his hands high.

"Liu Botao is here, my lord, Liu Botao is here!"

However, what he didn't expect was that when he was full of excitement, he suddenly slapped him hard from the back and pushed him to the ground. Clutching his chest, Liu Botao didn't get up for a long time.

Turning back with difficulty, it was his young master Dong Shiyun who pushed him!

That face is no longer like the face of a literati who has read poetry and books. Jealousy, anger, distortion, mania, all kinds of emotions are intertwined on a person's face, and it even makes him a little unhuman!

Under Liu Botao's unbelievable eyes, Dong Shiyun crushed his foot fiercely behind his back, roaring resentfully.

"It's not fair!"

"Who is he? He's just a lowly and wretched ink official. He's hunched over in the darkroom of the lottery. He deals with some dark villains all day long. It's unreasonable for this kind of person to be ranked second in high school!!!"

"My son is the grandson of Dong Xueli, the chief talent in the south of the Yangtze River. Why should I fail to be a well-educated scholar, and a mere ink official can be worthy?"

puff~

This blow was also a real hit, a group of people hit the stomach, and Dong Shiyun swallowed the rest of the words of this madman abruptly, his face turned pale, and after two or three seconds, he staggered He took two steps back, and sat down on the ground. Two schoolboys in Tsing Yi rushed up to help him, and the officials from the Ministry of Rituals at the other end also panicked and yelled.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and help the No. [-] master!"

In the dumbfounded eyes of those waiting for the list, the son was knocked down by a stick, and the master was supported by a protective belt to the back. Immediately, a big red flower stayed on his chest and was sent to the tall horse. .

"I don't accept it, I don't accept it"

This man was conceited to a certain extent, but he was quite powerful, yelling and dissatisfied, Dong Shiyun stood up stiffly while supporting the wall, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, his face trembled and roared.

But pushing Sanjia away on horseback, listening to his roar, the last official from the Ministry of Rituals had a gloomy face, turned around with a sneer, and hummed disdainfully.

"This Liu Dacai is fluent in answering questions throughout the article. He is proficient in money, grain, punishment, taxation and interpersonal relationships. Now the regent is in need of someone who will guard the side and take care of the people. He is the best among them. As for you?"

"The entire examination paper only recorded a sentence under the name, you are willing to serve as an internal response in the south of the Yangtze River, and to respond to the banner of the Regent King! The Regent is the Crown Prince Regent, the name is justified, and the world belongs to him as it should be. What do you need? Talent, no virtue of being a man! No humility of Dongli! What use are you for?"

"If you don't admit Liu Dacai, you're a good-for-nothing? Don't be embarrassing here!"

After he happily reprimanded him, the official of the Ministry of Rites of Liao Town who persuaded Liu Botao to sign up once again raised his voice and yelled loudly at the scholars who were watching.

"The world is so chaotic, what are the culprits of the literati? People of the same age! It's time to abandon those glitz and practice the world!"

Dozens of infantry soldiers of the Liao army followed behind with their guns in their arms. They watched the top three being picked up, and then the palace gate opened, and they were taken into the palace. flushed.

However, the words of the official of the Ministry of Rites really hurt many people's hearts. Whether they were admitted or not, they couldn't help but slightly lowered their heads and thought. It's really time for a change of dynasty. These scholars, Should it also evolve with the times?

The biggest loser in this imperial examination was Dong Shiyun, who was speechless after being reprimanded by a few words. When he came back to his senses, the grandson of the famous Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River was shocked to find that the scholars and students around him were strange. He looked at him with eyes that were not talented, and even tried to betray Jiangnan in exchange for becoming an official in the capital.

This was exposed nakedly, and Dong Shiyun's reputation was completely ruined. Even the Jiangzuo Dong family behind him had to be ashamed, and suddenly woke up. Dong Shiyun's arrogance disappeared completely, his face was pale and sweaty, He waved his hands in horror and shook his head, screaming at the scholar who was watching him beside him.

"Don't listen to their nonsense! I didn't write that sentence, my son didn't write it! Really didn't write it!"

But the more he yelled, the more the scholars around him talked, the more frightened he was, the more unbearable he was, his hair fell loose, and he grabbed the clothes of the nearest person like a madman. Collar, he roared terribly.

"I really didn't write it!"

Responding to him, he pushed away violently in disgust, as if there was something dirty on his body.

Gradually, the crowd dispersed. Those who were on the list happily went to the official department to sign up, while those who were not listed shook their heads and sighed and went home. It was honestly picking up the chips, since I can't change the general trend of the world, then I can only adapt myself to the general trend of the world!
