After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

Just a few days after the incident involving the leaking of examination papers, Chang'an City suddenly snowed for another three days. Natural visions are said to be ominous. Before the official of Si Tiantai could speak, there were rumors in the court that the prime minister was harmonizing the cauldron and adjusting the yin and yang. This natural phenomenon may be caused by the unclear politics and religion and the imbalance of yin and yang. The person who is the prime minister is also a yin, and for a time, all the targets are pointed at the ministers in the political hall.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there is such a thing as leaking exam questions. We can only blame God. Of course, such nonsense will not spread out of the imperial city. It's enough to pass it on to all the officials in the imperial city. You can't dismiss all the ministers in the political affairs hall just because of this sentence. If they are dismissed from office, who will be responsible for the affairs of the court?

Pei Jiaoran, who had just come out of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was dragged over by Ling Shi from the Ministry of Personnel. It was said that she was going to be promoted to an official position today, so Le Shangshu asked her to come over and help.

Pei Jiaoran hurriedly entered the courtyard of the official department and saw more than thirty people standing under the verandah. Hearing the movement, they all turned around. Some were white-haired, and some were vigorous. They stood under the pale sky, looking at her with envy.

After looking at these people for a while, Pei Jiaoran walked up to the verandah in a serious manner, waiting for Yue Shangshu with Li Zuo. These people seemed to have been waiting for a long time. They stretched out their hands and tapped their legs gently. It was obvious that their legs were numb from standing.

Just when Pei Jiaoran sent Li Zuo to knock on the door and ask about the situation. The person who was sitting on the ground just now quickly stood up, and the others also stood upright when they saw this.

"Pei Sheren, you are finally here." The fat Le Shangshu held her hand eagerly and cried, "If you hadn't come, we would have missed a lot of things."

"Le Shangshu, there are people watching down there." Pei Jiaoran withdrew his hand and reminded with a smile.

Hearing this, Shangshu laughed dryly and avoided her. He stood up straight, scanned the corridor, and coughed a few times. The corridor suddenly became extremely quiet, and it seemed that the sound of new shoots breaking through the ground could be heard.

Yue Shangshu looked at Pei Jiaoran, went to Li Zuo to make the book, and said loudly: "I came from the suburbs to the Yuan Dynasty, to the Duanmen Gate, to issue a big trumpet, and to change the world. I thought about the virtuous and wise, marked the four subjects, and ordered all the officials and ministers to The minister who is also the guardian of the land, detailedly extended his position, walked around the grassland, lined up to ask questions, and asked for help..." After rambling for a while, he got to the point, "The wise and upright person can speak out and give the best advice to the third-class monk Xu. Ru, third-class people Pang Yan, fourth-class people Wei Lun, Yao Yuanlang, Li Bin, fourth-class people Cui Gu, Ren Wan, fifth-class people Wei Zhengguan and Chen Yuanxi; Wenjingbang Guoke third-class people The others are Yao Zhongli and Wu Siyuan, the fourth class is Cui Zhi... the military planner Hongyuan is worthy of being a general, the third class is Wu Si; the fifth class is Li Yuxi... the third class is, Those who are ranked third will be punished by Zhongshu's disciples. Those who are ranked fourth, fourth, and fifth will be punished immediately by Zhongshu's disciples." Note 1

After a long list of writings were read out in one breath, the high-ranking officials knelt down and thanked the Holy Father, with excitement in their eyes. After reading out the written document, the officials led all the candidates into the public house to confer officials. Pei Jiaoran, who was dragged in to help, acted as an interrogator.

Fortunately, the Ministry of Personnel has already prepared a directory, and she only needs to ask the candidate who has ascended the rank where he wants to serve as an official based on the content. If it is the same as the directory, then just prepare to take office directly. If it is different, the court will make other arrangements based on the situation.

Pei Jiaoran curled his lips as he looked at the official positions arranged in the document. With a gentle face, he asked everyone who came in softly. Surprisingly, no one raised any objection.

By the time the ceremony was over, the sun was already at its peak, and she was about to leave. Le Shangshu came in and stopped her with a happy face, and invited her to eat in Shangshu Province's public kitchen.

After the meal, she was invited back by the people from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The next day on the way to Xiachao, Pei Jiaoran was dragged to the official house of the Ministry of Civil Affairs by Le Shangshu.

Pei Jiaoran frowned and looked at Wang Lingshi under the verandah, and called out the names of all the candidates.

"Please follow me and Pei Sheren to Beiya for the assessment. Once you pass the assessment, you will be accepted to take office."

"Beiya?" Pei Jiaoran asked suspiciously.

"Nan Yamen doesn't have enough manpower to teach them. We can only send these moves to Beiya." Le Shangshu looked at her teasingly and said: "You happen to be familiar with General Youshence. You can accompany me. It’s the best.”

Upon hearing this, Pei Jiaoran took a deep breath and signaled Wang Lingshi to leave quickly.

She walked like the wind, and there was constant chatter behind her.

"I heard that the Shence Army is very fierce. Will they make things difficult for us?"

"Who knows. But what are we going to test? Will it be the Six Arts of a Gentleman?"

"No way. You have to take a test on the Six Arts of a Gentleman, and it's not like Shence Military Control."

"That's the archery test? I'm pretty good at archery, and I've made every shot."

"Just brag. I can still swoop in with a hundred steps!"

The group of people stopped at the door of Shence Gong's house.

When the sergeant at the door saw Pei Jiaoran, he had a smile on his face and said, "Pei Sheren, why are you here? Are you sending these moves for assessment?"

Pei Jiaoran nodded when asked.

The sergeant quickly made way for him. One person continued to guard the door, while the other led them to the school grounds.

There is already a fire burning on the school grounds. He checked the list of candidates with Wang Lingshi and motioned to all the candidates to follow him.

"Thank you, Mr. Pei She." Wang Lingshi bowed his hands to her politely, "I have something to do, please help yourself."

After agreeing, Pei Jiaoran turned around and headed in the direction where the fire chief left.

After completing the subject preparation, the matter of returning to Yi should also be put on the agenda.

She walked slowly and without any scruples in Shence Mansion. The Shence sergeants they met on the road all gave way to her when they saw her. The slower runner was caught by her and asked about the location of the assessment before letting him go.

The public room where the assessment was held was very lively. Li Xiujing's voice came out through the window. He was teaching these soldiers how to save their lives, and these soldiers started talking excitedly when they heard it.

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Pei Jiaoran walking over, and saw the enthusiasm with which these actions were discussed. Li Xiujing simply let them discuss it among themselves, while he took a book and sat in front of the window pretending to read.

Stop at the verandah. Pei Jiaoran glanced at Li Xiujing, who was concentrating on reading the "Taibai Yin Sutra", and smiled softly.

"You held the book upside down." Pei Jiaoran lowered his head to his ear and said leisurely.

Li Xiujing, who was just pretending to read, almost dropped the book in his hand when she said this. He also noticed that the officials had stopped talking and looked at him one after another. Li Xiujing immediately put on a straight face and stood up calmly.

"Why are you here?" Li Xiujing blocked the sight of all the officials.

"I came to see you." Pei Jiaoran glanced behind him, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much."

The voice was as soft as the spring breeze, which made Li Xiujing startled. Then he climbed out of the window.

"Wait for me in the next room first. I'll be out right away." After saying that, Li Xiujing turned back and didn't forget to lock the window.

Pei Jiaoran frowned as he looked at the closed window. He consciously went to the side room to wait for Li Xiujing.
