The Shiqing Shilu system, the system of recommending military merits, the system of inspection and recruitment, and the system of nine products are the election systems of previous dynasties, and then in the Sui Dynasty, these election systems have not met the needs of the times.

The unprecedented system of selecting and appointing officials planned by the new emperor Yang Guang and Yang Su is a more advanced imperial examination system, which uses the examination results of poetry and trial strategies as the basis for whether or not to become an official.

However, in the past, those who have changed the law have walked the path of nine deaths and one life.

Qin State Shang Yang changed the law, Martingale was punished by car splitting, Wang Mang of the New Dynasty changed the law, died and the country was destroyed, and Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty changed the law, and was depressed and died by the removal of the prime minister......

Sima Jiu looked at Yang Su with a proud face, and his heart shook.

In any case, he knew Yang Su's fate, and he had always been wary of Yang Su in his heart, and he caught Yang Su's ride by chance, but he didn't expect Yang Su to have a pattern.

Yang Su was almost forced to death by Yang Guang, and after his death, his son Yang Xuangan rebelled in Liyang, and the Yang family was beheaded by the whole family, and the heirs were extinct.

It's just that Sima Jiu didn't dare to conclude whether all this was related to the imperial examination system planned by Yang Su and Yang Guang.

Yang Su said: "Right now, you have three paths to choose from. ”

Sima Jiu said respectfully: "I also hope that the lord will make it clear." ”

"First, the Ministry of Officials is a member of the merit department, and the merit examination department is in charge of the promotion of officials in the world, and the authority is very heavy, and within three years, there will be a chance for promotion."

Yang Su saw that Sima Jiu was unmoved, and continued: "Second, Your Majesty intends to dig a canal to connect Jiangnan with Hebei, and this matter is in the hands of the Ministry of Water and Resources. ”

"Third, it is still in the Ministry of Industry, Your Majesty intends to build Luoyang New City at the foot of the mountain next to the ruins of the capital of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, thinking that this is the eastern capital of the dynasty, and this matter is in charge of the Ministry of Industry. Yang Su said to Sima Jiuyan one by one, he spoke in detail, and obviously weighed a lot of time.

Sima Jiu lowered his head and thought for a moment, and quickly made a decision.

"Thank you for the love of the lord, my subordinates have heard a little about the affairs of the Eastern Capital, and my subordinates think that the affairs of the Eastern Capital are the first priority for the Lord." Sima Jiu chose the position of Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Labor.

"Very well, the old man also has this intention. Young people need to settle down to do something big, although this position is from the sixth grade of the official position, if it is in charge of the affairs of the Eastern Capital, it must be the actual operator of the Ministry of Industry, the Eastern Capital will be successful, and the future is immeasurable. ”

Sima Jiu thanked: "Thank you Lord for your support." ”

Yang Su looked at Sima Jiu with an approving look.

Sima Jiu's investigation of the vampire demon case in Dongcheng seems to be easy, but in fact, there is an undercurrent.

This case not only involves Yang Yong, the king of Fangling, but also related to the Yin and Yang family and the agency family, and the slightest carelessness will break his bones.

But Sima Jiu handled it properly, which shows that Sima Jiu has an extraordinary background and is at ease.

Sima Jiu came from a mediocre background and had a lot of connections with doctors and Taoists, and he was in charge of the construction of the Eastern Capital on behalf of the Yang family, which was bound to clash with the major forces, and would inevitably intersect with the organ Yu Wenkai, and even contradict each other, which was in line with Yang Su's assumption.

"The old man's opening of the mansion is a gift from His Majesty, you are in the Ministry of Industry, but you are also the old man's staff. The old man is a very popular minister, the joy of the empire, that is, the joy of the old man, and the danger of the empire, that is, the danger of the old man. ”

"The words of the lord are admired by the subordinates, and the subordinates will live up to the expectations of the lord."

"Hmm!" Yang Su bowed slightly.

"The current Shangguan Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, has won the trust of His Majesty, and the Gonglang Gongshuang of the Ministry of Industry is a family member of the agency, but he does not deal with Yu Wenkai, the head of the agency. The old man will arrange other matters, you just need to work hard. ”

"Thank you, Lord."

Sima Jiu recalled the dyed maniac Yu Wenkai, and the image of the red-haired man in that day's dream appeared in his mind again, and he couldn't help but shudder.

Seeing him like this, Yang Su smiled silently.

Subsequently, Yang Su briefly introduced some situations in the court with him, and then exchanged some family greetings.

Yang Su beckoned: "Someone! ”

"Lord, this is ......" Sima Jiu saw the servant coming with a plate of silver.

Yang Su said: "Take these two hundred taels of silver to use, if it is not enough, just find the treasury to withdraw it." ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Sima Jiu recalled the legendary Yang Gong Treasury in later generations, so he did not refuse, and gratefully accepted Yang Su's gift.

"It's not too early, you should step back first!"

"Subordinates retire!"

Yang Su nodded slightly, and then stopped talking.

After Sima Jiu said goodbye to Yang Su, it was already a child's time, and as soon as he left the gate of Yang Su's mansion, he saw a fat young man standing next to his mount with a smile on his face.

This person has a round head and brain, and the bridge of the nose is collapsed, giving people a simple feeling.

As soon as he saw Sima Jiu, he immediately stepped forward to salute, obviously, he was waiting for Sima Jiu.

"Yunyun Mansion Gongsun Lingyin, Miss Qianchengxue's first guard, Licheng Luo Shixin has seen Gongzi, Miss Gongsun Lingyin has Gongzi to compose poems, she is overjoyed, she has composed a tune, please go to Yunyun Mansion with me for evaluation."

Luo Shixin is a person, Sima Jiu knows something, the future Wagangzhai hero, the early Tang Dynasty famous general.

Sima Jiu couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he saw him introduce himself as the first guard.

The future celebrity, the bodyguard at this time, is really unpredictable.

It's just that the Luo Shixin in front of him seems to be different from what is recorded in the history books.

It seems that Luo Shixin and Sima Jiu are the same age, but according to historical records, Luo Shixin was born in 600 AD, and now, he should only be four or five years old.

Could it be that the historian was drunk? Is there a mistake in the history books? Or is it Luo Shixin's super long development?

"It's getting late today, tomorrow, I'm going to visit Yunyun Mansion when I make a decision." Sima Jiu made a statement.

Although the other party reported his name, Sima Jiu was not willing to follow a stranger into the Yunyun Mansion at night.

"Childe, Miss Gongsun Lingyin and Miss Qianchengxue, I specially instructed me to invite Childe to evaluate." Roche's confidence is straightforward.

"But it's really inconvenient today!" Sima Jiu continued to refuse.

"Childe, the two young ladies of my family can say, if I don't ask the son, I will be deducted."

"I have eighteen brothers and nephews in my family, but they all count on my remuneration to get by, and I hope that my son will be fulfilled." Luo Shixin bowed, his head almost bent to the ground.

Luo Shixin is a big fat man, and it is not easy for him to make this move.

Sima Jiu couldn't bear it, and was also curious about Gongsun Lingyin's composition and Yunyun Mansion, so he handed over the horse to the servants of Yang Sufu and got into Luo Shixin's carriage.

As soon as Sima Jiu opened the curtain of the carriage door, a faint sweet fragrance came to his face, and the carriage was even more warm and exquisitely decorated, like a woman's car.

He had dealt with Gongsun Lingyin in Yang Su's mansion, Gongsun Lingyin was naturally natural, and he didn't apply fat powder, thinking about it, this should be the car called Qianchengxue.

In the imperial capital, when driving at night, there are military guards to check, however, the strange thing is that Luo Shixin took Sima Jiu all the way, and no one stopped the car for inspection.

Yunyun Mansion was only seven or eight square markets away from Yang Su's mansion, and soon after, Luo Shixin brought Sima Jiu to Yunyun Mansion.

Yunyun Mansion is brightly lit, although it is the official office of Lejia, but there is no solemn atmosphere, but gorgeous and elegant, which is pleasant to watch.

In the house, some drums and pianos are heard from time to time, which is lively and extraordinary.

After Sima Jiu dismounted.

"Childe, please." Luo Shixin made a gesture of inviting Sima Jiu in.

"Please."

As soon as Sima Jiu entered the gate, a huge hall appeared in front of him.

I saw a group of men and women dressed in Western Regions sitting on the ground, beating the small drum on their waists.

Their sense of rhythm was so strong that Sima Jiu couldn't help but stop and listen.

In the hall, everyone playing seemed to be very attentive and did not notice Sima Jiu.

Luo Shixin couldn't help but show a happy look when he saw Sima Jiu stop and listen.
