Chapter 36: The Ancient Peasant Girl 36
Then she began to look for Su Chen, and then found him in the back, there were several young jinshi of the same age beside him, among which Su Chen looked very ordinary, in fact, if you take a closer look, you will find that these jinshi may be of different ages, but there are no bad looks.
By the way, it seems that in ancient times, officials still had to look at their faces, and they couldn't be examined if they had scars on their faces, and they couldn't be regarded as defects if they weren't good-looking, right? Su Chen can only be regarded as average in such a group of people, and the best one is that Tanhua, who is really worthy of being known for his face.
But Chen Lin also took a look, and soon she still focused on her husband, and when people arrived not far from her, Su Chen seemed to see her, and waved to her, she hurriedly waved her hand in response, Su Ling in her arms also waved her little hand in the same way, and learned to cheer like everyone else.
Being admitted to the Jinshi does not mean that you can become an official immediately, after all, there are so many Jinshi, every three years, but there are so many official positions, but there are very few retirees, unless it is a crime to be dealt with, so those who can be directly arranged for official positions are except for the first-class ones.
Then some of them will enter Hanlin as a Jishi, and the rest will be assigned to various counties, yadang, county commanders or county officials, and there will be an internship period, if the internship period does not meet the standards, then it cannot be officially awarded.
It is obviously the best to enter Hanlin as a Jishi, because there is a tradition of non-Hanlin Rubuge, although I don't know why this world is like this, even if it can't be like Hanlin, it is best to stay in Yandu, and even if the magistrate is at the same level, it is not as good as the foot of the capital.
If you can't go anywhere, you have to choose a place, and the vast majority of people will choose a prosperous area like the South if they have to go to a place as a last resort.
And Su Chen, who has no background backer, although he knows King Han, Su Chen doesn't want to ask him for help, it is a bit difficult to stay in the capital with his own ability, and the selection of places may not be able to compete with those who have connections, so Su Chen's goal is to go to a place where he can be the master of his own house.
After confirming that he was not selected as a Gujishi, Su Chen looked at the situation in various places, and then selected a few places, recorded the situation in these places, and took them home to discuss with his father and wife.
There are many such places, but Su Chen has a fancy to three of them, these three places have no county orders, only county officials, if he chooses these places, he has the opportunity to get real power, instead of being an intern, he can only participate in official business but cannot sign.
These three places are in the southeast of Artemisia County, the northeast border town of Shanguan, and the northwest exile area of Hengshui County, Chen Lin does not know the geography of this world, only knows that Panshui County is in the central area of Chen State.
When she saw the map taken out by the father and son, and marked out three places, she found that the Chen country in this world is the same as the Hua country, but the shape is not the same, well, the ancient map was not standard, but compared with the Hua country, it feels like it is flipped left and right, the east of Hua Guo faces the coastline, while the Chen country is the west.
And these three areas, probably corresponding to guizou, xizang and dongbei, are almost such areas, and she also noticed that there are actually a lot of rivers in the Chen country, there are three big rivers alone, and the source of one of them is in Hengshui County, and that river is also called Henghe.
There is one close to Zhenshan Pass, but there is still some distance, there are small rivers connected, and these rivers are connected to each other, there are two big rivers that have crossed places, but not Panshui County, but in another place, through Panshui County is the Heng River, which is the gentlest of the three rivers.
Chen Lin studied the map, while Su Chen and his father were discussing where it was more appropriate to go, and the three places had not been visited by county orders for a long time, because the three regions had died several county orders in a row, saying that they were accidental bandits or something, but who knows.
In these three places, Artemisia Sanxian has a special location, surrounded by several ethnic groups, although it was ruled by the previous dynasty hundreds of years ago, but it has always been at odds with their dragon clan, and Artemisia Sanxian has always belonged to the Sanzhi zone.
Zhenshan Pass is located at the border pass, but it is not a place where the garrison is stationed, and it is often invaded and plundered by wolves outside the border pass, and it has always been a high-risk area.
Hengshui County is located in the northwest, which has always been regarded as a place of exile, the weather is similar to the northeast, most of the year is covered with ice and snow in winter, the grain harvest is a problem, and even the official position has almost become the same position as exile.
Listening to Su's father's popular science, Su Chen began to think about where the three places were more suitable, and it was obvious that the three were not good places, except for those who offended Shangguan and were assigned, basically no one dared to go.
He calculated the advantages and disadvantages of these places one by one, and finally nodded to Hengshui County, "Let's do it here." ”
"Reason. Father Su was satisfied, but still asked.
"Although the three places look the same, however, there are many foreigners in Artemisia County, which are very xenophobic, and the county seat is still foreign, in the same way, Zhenshanguan is the same, the county of Zhenshanguan is the relative of the general of the Zhenshanguan garrison, I can't seize power if I go, and Hengshui County is different, the county of Hengshui County made a mistake and was demoted,
And he has only been in office for a year, it will be easier for me to go and want to recover the power, here, although Hengshui County is a place of exile, but the real people who are extremely evil are exiled to Zhenshanguan, and here in Hengshui County are all innocently implicated, it will be safer. ”
Su Chen said his thoughts, and Father Su nodded: "Yes, you think very thoroughly, then it's decided." ”
"Have you decided?" Chen Lin was still thinking about where he was going, when he heard their conversation and asked.
"Well, I'm going to Hengshui County. Su Chen nodded.
"Hengshui County? Okay, then I'll arrange it and see if I can recruit some guards." Chen Lin said.
"Although Hengshui County is safer than the other two places, but there are so many county orders that have accidents, which means that there is still danger, I mean, Lin'er, you take your son to take care of your father in the capital, I will go by myself, and I will pick you up when I settle down." Su Chen said.
"Father and Xiaoling stay, I'll go with you. Chen Lin said.
"No, it's too dangerous. Su Chen refused.
"I must go, my father can take Xiaoling with me," Chen Lin shook her head, she didn't want to wait for them to meet again, there were already three and four between them.
"Just take her with me, and take care of you. Father Su spoke.
"But ......" Su Chen still wanted to say something, but when he saw Chen Lin's eyes, he knew that he couldn't convince her, so he could only agree.
Next, Su Chen applied for the position of county magistrate of Hengshui County, and soon an official document came down, asking him to go to Hengshui County to serve within three months.
