"The Han Dynasty has been a scholar for 400 years, all of them have been elected as officials in the world, and today's Jiangdong examination, with the "spring festival" life, in the future, February 9, February 12, February 15 will hold three examinations, once every three years, and the test of passing the state school can enter the spring school.
At the beginning of February, when this list was posted on the earthen wall outside the gate of the county government in Jiangdong County, the scholars who read poetry and books throughout Jiangdong were excited.
It's a pity that the county school and the state school, you have to pass the county test every year, throughout the Jiangdong counties today, in addition to the five counties of Jingxiang and the seven counties of Jiaozhou, the rest of the counties and counties, there are scholars pushed into the county schools.
Provisional examination, Moling, Wuhou Mansion side hall.
"Duke Qiao, originally the lord had ordered Mao Xiao to take the main exam for Chunqiu first, and then he had to hand over the state war report, and he was specially transferred to the South China Sea, and this matter will be handed over to you when you are old."
Sun Shao raised his hand towards Qiao Xuan and said.
"This is the duty of the ministers."
Qiao Xuan returned the salute to Sun Shao, "Dare to ask Lord Assassin Shi, the roster of test scholars in various states and states can be reported." ” Under Sun Shao's gaze, Cui Jun handed a few pieces of silk paper to Qiao Xuan.
"In addition to the five counties of Jingxiang and the seven counties of Jiaozhou, Yangzhou Prefecture tried to obtain 127 filial piety, and Xuzhou Prefecture tried to obtain 13 filial piety, a total of 140 people."
"Only one hundred and forty people" Qiao Xuan frowned slightly, "The five counties in Jingnan and the seven counties in Jiaozhou, the vacant officials have been reported yesterday, I am afraid it is far from enough." ” Sun Shao and Cui Jun glanced at each other, with a smile in their eyes, "Duke Qiao doesn't need to worry too much, the lord has already decreed that the state has tried to take the exam, if you don't want to wait for the next subject, you can go to the general's mansion and wait for the appointment." ” A little surprise appeared in Qiao Xuan's eyes, "The state has tried to take the test for filial piety, but what kind of official?"
"County magistrate."
Qiao Xuan touched his chin with one hand, "My Jiangdong is a scholar, it has become difficult to be an official in the world, not to mention the monthly small test of the county school, the annual test of the county school, and the questions of the state examination, it is us, and we have to think about it repeatedly before we can answer."
Moreover, under the rule of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the north, filial piety should have been a county official, if he was a county official, I am afraid that these scholars would have many complaints. ” "Duke Qiao doesn't need to worry too much, the lord has already decreed that those who have passed the spring festival can be county officials, and those who have tried the state can be county officials, and the rest can only be the adjutant officials of the counties, if there is no great merit, they shall not be promoted."
Qiao Xuan sighed, "In this way, tomorrow I will enter the Sifang Recruitment Hall with the officials of the palace to announce this edict." ” After the state test, the filial piety and honesty are all gathered in the Quartet Recruitment Hall.
"There's Lau Joe."
After some greetings, Qiao Xuan returned home.
"Father, tomorrow is the spring exam, my father is the main examiner, these days there are many slaves outside the door like a carp crossing the river, my father should have infinite scenery, why did he give up the carriage and return from the back door wearing a coarse cloth clothes" Xiao Qiao sat playfully and cutely on the swing in the yard and shook his body, looking at Qiao Xuan with a coquettish smile.
"Today, there may be servants in the house who are honored by outsiders" "My father has a life, and no one dares to take it, but today, many house slaves throw congratulatory gifts into the garden from outside the courtyard wall, and Rao is I ordered someone to report to my sister in the house, so that the Wuhou Mansion sergeant arrived, and outside the courtyard wall, it was also a vigilance."
Qiao Xuan's face sank, "Among those congratulatory gifts, there can be signatures." ” "Yes."
"Who are they?"
"Huiji San'in Heshi" "Wuzhong Zhang's" "Huaiyin Bushi" Qiao Xuan patted his head, "Prepare the car, I have to go to the Sifang Recruitment Hall." ” Xiao Qiao was so anxious that he got off the swing, "Where is my father going?"
"Since I am returning these gifts to those flattering people from the scholar clan, the old man will definitely go to Wu Hou this time and expel these bastards from the examination room."
"Father is trying to harm my sister?"
Qiao Xuan paused and turned his head suddenly, "Why did Wei'er say this?"
"My sister is pregnant in May, is favored in the house, if a son is born, it is the second son of Wu Hou, although it is a concubine, but my Jiangdong foundation is big, it is not his day to be a king, my Qiao family, although it is a wealthy family in Anhui City, but there is no half of the foundation in Jiangdong, Wu Hou ordered his father to be the main examination of the Spring Festival, and also intended to let his father and the reference person form a teacher-student relationship" Qiao Xuan looked at Qiao Wei with a smile on his face, "This is what you think in your heart."
Qiao Wei lowered her head, "But it's a rumor in the streets and alleys these days." ” "Wei'er, regardless of whether Sister Ru can give birth to Lin'er, my Qiao clan is valued by Wu Hou, he is prosperous and rich every day, there is no need to worry, my father has no children under his knees, and the wealth of my Qiao clan is not as good as the Huaiyin Bu clan, but we are victorious."
"Indisputable" Qiao Wei's face was full of doubts, and then, he saw Qiao Xuan ordering someone to put pen and ink on the table, and he personally picked up the pen and wrote: If you are promoted to become rich, you don't take this road, and you can't enter this door if you are greedy for life and fear of death.
Facing Qiao Wei's surprised gaze, Qiao Xuan sighed and pointed to the good sentence on the stone table, "This is written by Wu Hou, and the book is only passed on to paste this couplet in front of Fangshan Academy on the day of the big exam." ” "Promoted to become rich, Wu Hou is unwilling to let these filial piety become corrupt officials who accumulate wealth; Greedy for life and afraid of death, could it be that the officials of Jiangdong still need to come to the battlefield in person."
Qiao Xuan sighed, "After the state has tried the filial piety, you can let the county officials go, if you can pass the test, you can be the county officials, looking at the counties in Jiangdong, now only the five counties of Jingxiang and the seven counties of Jiaozhou lack low-level officials, and most of the filial piety and honesty of the spring will go west." ” Xiao Qiao looked surprised, "I heard that the land of Jiaozhou is remote, the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are many mountains and forests and hide fierce beasts, and many barbarians are causing trouble to the people, but this is the case."
"Marquis Wu ordered the army to be on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and went to Cangwu in person without attacking Jingxiang, just to meet with Shixie, the assassin of Jiaozhou, and stabilize the seven counties of Jiaozhou."
Xiao Qiao pouted, "I'm afraid that these pampered filial piety people, when they hear about the remote places of the state, I'm afraid they are unwilling." ” Qiao Xuan sneered, "It's okay if you don't go, I Jiangdong has raised it for several years, and I have paid tribute to its success with the learning of all the sons and hundreds of schools, if I dare to pick and choose, according to the new rules of Jiangdong, I can take away his filial piety, and the whole clan will be reduced to slavery, and the land of Zhuyazhou and Yizhou will be reclaimed in the wilderness, and the barbarian people, isolated islands, mountains and forests will be together." ” Xiao Qiao pursed her lips, she had already noticed the boredom in her father's heart in the past few days, "I'd better visit my sister in the inner mansion." ” "After the spring, the officials are appointed, the top three in the big exam, you still need to be ordered by Wu Hou in person, about half a month, Wu Hou will return, you can walk around the inner house more these days, if Wu Hou returns, you don't want to go to the inner house."
"Why is that?"
Xiao Qiao looked puzzled.
"Go, go, go."
Qiao Xuan sent Xiao Qiao into the carriage outside the mansion and ordered the servants to cover the door, his face showed a little bitterness, could it be that he could make it clear to Xiao Qiao that he was unwilling to give a pair of daughters to Wu Hou Qiao's fortunes and misfortunes are all tied to the Liu family in Wuzhong, and if you dare to disobey, there will be a thunderous disaster
