Chapter 40: The Reign of the Emperor (3)
Zhao Xin heard Fu Bi's voice, so he sat up, straightened his body, and then said, "Zhengyan is here...... Hurry up and excuse ......" and commanded to the left and right: "Give a seat for righteousness!" ”
So, a eunuch brought a chair, put it opposite Zhao Xin, and invited Fu Bi over.
Fu Bi showed trembling, and only dared to sit half of his ass on the chair.
This made Zhao Xin laugh when he saw it: "You don't have to be formal!" ”
How could he not understand Fubi's temperament?
For Fu Bi, the respect of others is what this right-right person values the most.
And the respect that comes from the king is as precious as life!
Therefore, Zhao Xin knew that Fu Bi was completely restrained now.
"I heard that Lone is saying that he has to get rid of the flow of Neiquan?" Zhao Xin asked.
"The trust of the official family, the national prince will not abandon it, and the micro-minister is a big responsibility with a vulgar body and shallow knowledge, which is really a sincere fear, a sincere fear!" Fu Bi hurriedly got up and bowed: "May the prince of the country show his holy thoughts and lower his virtue to teach Weichen!" ”
Zhao Xin listened and immediately laughed.
A two-year-old child laughs like a bell.
So, Zhao Xin said: "Please ...... Zhengyan"
After Fu Bi stood up, he asked, "How is the selection of people this year?" ”
"Back to the Guogong, there are 354 people selected at the end of the term of this year, 785 people are selected for seniority, and there are 348 people who are under the age of 348......" Fu Bi honestly reported the data he had obtained: "All of them are written since they arrived at the ministry and delivered their origins, and after verification, they are indeed me!" ”
The so-called expiration of term, completion of salary, and age before expiration are all the names of the seniority of officials in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Among them, when the expiration of the term of office is greater than the completion of the salary and the number of years is not yet completed, when the official is transferred and removed from the system according to the system, it shall be queued according to this order.
It's just that the system is usually used to break it.
If there is a relationship and a way, all restrictions are nonsense!
Not to mention, now Zhao Xin only needs one sentence to directly let a candidate ascend to heaven or fall into hell, regardless of his political performance, background and level!
"One thousand four hundred and eighty-seven people have been selected and transferred to two hundred ......," Zhao Xin smiled and said to Fu Bi: "Heaven is magnificent! ”
Fu Bi nodded and bowed: "The virtue of this country is also!" ”
If you don't have this Shou Guogong in front of you, 1,487 to 200? Dream on!
It should be 1,487 to 80 or even less!
Anyway, the country has always selected people, and the total number of people in the four courtyards of Quancao in the spring and autumn of a year may be 200 to 400 people.
Zhao Xin paused, and then asked: "Aiqing, do you know how many of the candidates of the Fourth Court of Quancao this year have joined the top?" ”
Fu Bi was stunned, and immediately replied: "This matter, Weichen doesn't know about it for the time being, but there should be fifty people!" ”
Zhao Xin listened, but was quite surprised: "There are many?" ”
The Great Song Dynasty had a strict hierarchy of officials and restrictions on sending and expulsion.
The reason why the officials of the Jing Dynasty are so good is because they can break many restrictions of the grinding system, so that they can become the governor, the army, and the county at the age of thirty or forty.
Officials who are selected are much more pressurized.
Many people survive a lifetime and can't get through.
Because, if you want to change from selecting people to becoming officials of the Beijing Dynasty, what you need is no longer just political achievements.
They also need connections, luck, and connections.
Because, in order to meet the needs of centralization of power, but also to suppress and limit local power, the Great Song Dynasty made unprecedented changes and institutional arrangements.
This change and arrangement is not only reflected in the economy and system.
It is also reflected in the institutional arrangements of officials.
Why is the selection of people called shogunates? Because they are those official positions granted by the former Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties of the Jie Du Envoy of the Domain, they belong to outsiders and need to be vigilant and vigilant.
The reason why Jingguan is greater than the selection of people is because they are the Jinshi recruited by the Zhao Guanjia themselves and the cronies who were promoted after their own inspection and review, and they are their own people.
Therefore, if you want to transfer a person to a Beijing official, you must accept a comprehensive investigation from head to toe to the three generations of ancestors.
In addition to this, they also need to raise the master.
Not one, but five.
And one of them must be a superintendent!
Moreover, the superintendent must be the road transfer envoy of the official's location, or the official of Changping or the official of the prison.
Why?
Because the above three were all personally awarded by the Zhao Guanjia themselves.
The owner bears all responsibilities and has joint and several obligations for the official.
That is to say, if the person they recommend and guarantee is promoted to an official position, he will be corrupt and break the law, and he will be derelict in his duties.
They bear it as one, and they are accountable as one!
Therefore, in the Northern Song Dynasty, it was extremely difficult to choose someone who wanted to be transferred to Beijing!
Without sufficient political achievements and strong enough charisma, it is impossible to convince five high-ranking officials to jointly guarantee a candidate.
And generally speaking, the person who can gather the five main candidates, no matter how you say it, his ability and talent are irrefutable.
For example, the current Great Song Dynasty Shaanxi Jingluo appeased the deputy envoy Zhiyanzhou Fan Zhongyan, who was killed from the selection of people!
Fan Zhongyan was admitted to the imperial examination that year, but he was admitted to the ninety-seventh place in Cai Qi's second subject, and he didn't even get a fellow jinshi, so naturally he couldn't be a Beijing official, so he could only be reduced to a candidate.
But Fan Zhongyan just killed it and became another miracle in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty!
And in the Great Song Dynasty, the first thing he thinks about when he gets up every morning is how to get together his five masters.
After gathering the five masters, it is called the closing tip, just like the last project of building the tower to the top.
Generally speaking, it is a blessing to have more than a dozen people succeed in the annual selection test.
Note that this also includes the number of Qiu Quan.
But this year, there are 50 people who have succeeded in joining the top in one Chunquan?
Zhao Xin couldn't help but wonder.
I listened to Fu Bi explain: "This is all the Hong De of the Duke of the country...... At this age, the national prince has been bestowed by God, the official family is long-faced and happy, Kai'en Kejia selects people, and there are divisions on all roads, how can he not conform to the heart of heaven and be a hundred officials with virtue? ”
"Oh......" Zhao Xin was suddenly relieved, and understood what the situation was, and the officials below took advantage of the emperor's pleasure, and their fingers loosened.
In particular, the conditions and qualifications were relaxed, so there was such a record-breaking situation.
Of course, it is not excluded that these people are mixed into related households.
But no matter how related it is, those who can successfully merge are talents!
At the very least, this person's ability to communicate and move or money is very strong!
Thinking of the banknote ability, Zhao Xin remembered a person, so he smiled and asked Fu Bi: "This year, Liu Neiquan has brought Aiqing to the list of the ministry?" ”
Fu Bi hurriedly bowed: "Weichen has brought it, can the prince of the country want to watch?" ”
Zhao Xin nodded.
"Please wait for the prince of the country, Weichen will order someone to offer it!" Fu Bi then got up and bowed again.
