Three young scholars rode tall horses, Cheng Yu, Xi Zhong and Wang Cang led the horses to lead them forward, and not far away, three officials were waiting.

Cao Cao, the prime minister of Wei, Cui Yan of Wei County, and Chang Lin of Ye County.

The officials of these three levels will wait for a long time, they will take over from Cheng Yu and the three of them, lead the three Jinshi through the entire street at the gate of the Wei Mansion, and lead them from the beginning of the road to the gate of the Wei Mansion, accepting the envy and cheers of the scholars and Li Shu along the way.

"The auspicious time has come, begin!"

With the shouts of the ceremonial officials, the rumbling of drums, the earth-shattering cheers and cheers sounded, and the three new science and technology scholars slowly moved forward step by step under the guidance of Cao Cao and other three officials.

This is not too long a journey, and it has left an indelible mark on Zhuge Liang's mind.

The envious eyes of the fellow scholars, the eager eyes of the people, the admiring eyes of the sergeants, and the earth-shattering cheers and rumbling drums shook the young Zhuge Liang to the point that he almost didn't control himself.

Zhuge Liang thought that he had controlled himself, but in the eyes of others, especially in the eyes of Xu Shu, Meng Jian and Shi Tao, one of his faces had long been smiling like a chrysanthemum blooming, extremely bright.

Zhuge Liang also has such a face.

Xu Shu and the three of them thought so.

However, with such thoughts, there is a full, full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Only Zhuge Liang and the other three can enjoy such a scenery, only these three people can enjoy it, no one else can, and no one else is qualified.

And it's never been a chance to do that in a lifetime.

Quite a few people, especially the other seven scholars in the top 10, even had the idea of taking the exam again, and definitely tried their best to fight for the top three.

It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful!

The eyes of envy are almost protruding from their sockets.

Zhuge Liang and the other three rode on a tall horse and smiled like chrysanthemums, and the envy of the envy below was separated.

What can be done?

What can they do?

There is only endless envy.

Also, the desire for the next time, the desire for the next opportunity like this.

And this is the real purpose of Guo.

After the long street boasted about the officials, the selected jinshi will meet Guo Peng at the door of Guo Peng's office hall and determine the status of a monarch and a minister - they are all ministers, and Guo Peng is a king.

Because Guo Peng chose the official of Wei, not the Han official.

Han officials still need to pretend to perform, and because there is no emperor, the Han officials after Liu Xie's death can only be 'Xing XX Taishou and General', at least nominally, but Wei officials don't need to, Guo Peng himself has the final say.

The newly selected people are all Wei officials, and their official positions are determined, and these fifty-six people are Guo Peng's subordinate officials, who are closer and have more real status as monarchs and ministers.

Then the rest of the people, except for the first fifty-six, will be taken away by the various administrative departments to begin their ninety-six career of good fortune, contributing their youth and blood to the centralized power of feudalism, in exchange for the power they may get and enough money for their lives.

The first fifty-six people will stay here and have further intimate contact with Guo Peng.

Then Guo Peng personally arranged positions and jobs for them, and examined their virtues and talents up close, and they were more likely to be promoted as soon as possible than a large number of other people.

These fifty-six people, led by Zhuge Liang, entered the office hall together, signed up one by one, and then met one by one.

They bowed down to Guo Peng, who was sitting in front of the hall facing south, and met Guo Peng, who then announced that they would get up, and thus complete the whole ceremony.

The first one to come in was Zhuge Liang, a native of Langya County, Xuzhou.

Guo Peng looked at Zhuge Liang and found that Zhuge Liang was really tall and handsome, no wonder Liu Bei wanted to sleep in the same bed with Zhuge Liang as soon as he recruited Zhuge Liang, which made Guan Yu and Zhang Fei very jealous.

Next is the feast.

Guo Peng personally gave the banquet, and Guo Peng also specially called the song and dance that he had never called usually, and while eating, he watched their appearance and the posture they showed before the song and dance.

After watching for a while, Guo Peng already had a general understanding of the situation of these fifty-six people.

After an hour or so, Guo Peng let the singing and dancing be taken down, the banquet was removed, and then he began to ask his subordinates to arrange corresponding work for them, enter these places to observe and study, and the main person in charge took them for a while, teaching them what to do and what not to do, as well as the norms of working in the Wei Mansion, etc.

I have to say that this is very important, many people don't know that there are many rules for working in the Wei Mansion.

For example, the time of working and getting off work in the morning and evening, the time of eating, the rules of going out halfway, etc., if these are not followed, the consequences are very serious.

Zhuge Liang and other top ten "Jinshi" were arranged in Guo Peng's secretariat, which Guo Peng called the place of the cabinet.

It is independent of Shangshutai and Staff Desk, and is exclusive to Guo Peng's personal work consultant.

This institution did not exist in the Han Dynasty, but after Guo Peng established the Wei State, many new institutions were created, and the Cabinet was one of them.

The cabinet was also a formal bureaucracy in the Wei state, and its usual duty was to accompany Guo Peng in handling government affairs and assisting him in handling affairs.

Guo Peng is busy with government affairs, and he is also enthusiastic about handling government affairs, although so, his energy is also limited, and the government affairs that a person can handle are also limited, so many things have to be handed over to Shangshutai and the staff desk to deal with, even so, there are government affairs that cannot be let go.

This part of the government affairs that must not be let go seems to be few, and in fact, it is not handled by Guo Peng alone, so Guo Peng set up a cabinet.

Then let the confidants and close ministers enter the cabinet to lead the cabinet, select shrewd and capable officials into the cabinet, and assist Guo Peng in handling these matters together, and a considerable part of the decrees were issued from the cabinet to the Shangshutai and then issued to specific departments.

The head of the cabinet is called the head of the cabinet, and at present it is served by Wang Cang, a close minister of Guo Peng and known as Ji Shuai, and there are a total of 30 cabinet members, all of whom are shrewd and capable officials carefully selected from various local governments.

Guo Peng likes to select outstanding officials from the local government to help him in the cabinet, which is also one of the ways for local officials to enter the central government, and the future is very good.

Putting the top ten Jinshi in the cabinet to study is to let them have the best learning environment and learning resources, and they can stay by their side, this kind of treatment is really good, so Zhuge Liang and the other ten people are very envied in the entire Jinshi group.

Having said that, envy is envy, and after entering the cabinet, the pressure is really not ordinary.

While the others still have a month to two months to observe the government, the ten people who entered the cabinet were not, and they were immediately assigned ten cabinet members to follow them and observe them in handling government affairs.

Cabinet members are busy with official business, and they often don't stop when they are busy.

At this time, it is necessary for the newcomers to seize every opportunity to ask them for advice, pick up the government affairs they have dealt with to watch and study, and ask during the lunch break or afternoon tea if they see something they don't understand.

There are ways and means to ask, if you don't get the right way, the cabinet member will throw you a roll of the eyes, and you will wait to sit on the cold bench!

Xu Shu was disgusted by a cabinet member because he didn't ask the right question, and sat on the cold bench for three days to find the right way to deal with it, and then began to slowly help the cabinet member deal with government affairs.

Not to mention, the work here is intensive, and there is not so much time to learn to observe and paddle for you, so you can almost use it when you catch someone.

Seven days later, the ten newcomers had already begun to give hands to the cabinet members, dealing with some small things that the cabinet members were not happy to deal with.
