In fact, even if the Great Song Dynasty is born as a Jinshi, after the list is issued, it directly becomes the county order in charge of a county, usually only the champion, the list and the tanhua are qualified, and a small number of Jinshi can be awarded immediately, but they are only minor officials such as county lieutenants and master Bo, and the vast majority of Jinshi still have to run away, find a disciple, or show their talents hard, increase their reputation, and be awarded an official immediately after becoming a Jinshi.

There is no way, although it is difficult to take the Jinshi exam, and only 300 people are on the list every three years, but the problem is that the Great Song Dynasty is so big, and there are so many official positions, and there are 300 Jinshi every three years, which is naturally very rare in the national population, but compared with the official positions with grades, the Jinshi accumulated over the years is a situation where there are more wolves and less meat.

Fortunately, the imperial court treats Jinshi too favorably, even if he is not an official, he will have a lot of money, and it is no problem to ensure that the family has a well-off life.

Zhang Bin decisively rejected his first proposal, Han Jiang nodded, with a look of appreciation, and continued: "Second, if you go to Kyoto, the prime minister recommends you to enter the center of the imperial court and become a petty official, with your talents, you will naturally have a lot of opportunities to make progress in front of the Son of Heaven. ”

The so-called Tongjinshi, as the name suggests, is that the treatment is the same as that of Jinshi, and promotion will not be limited by fame, but the problem is that under the same circumstances or conditions, if you choose to be promoted, Jinshi will naturally have priority over Tongjinshi.

The most important thing is that since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, except for the founding prime minister Zhao Pu, there has never been a Tongjinshi who can become the prime minister.

And Zhang Bin wants to become the prime minister, turn the weak Song into a strong Song Dynasty, and then let the Great Song Dynasty have no borders, so after a little hesitation, Zhang Bin still shook his head and said: "Xianggong, I still want to hear the third suggestion." ”

Han Jiang's eyes became more and more appreciative, and he said: "The third suggestion of this prime minister is to let you not have any official positions, just knights and titles, and other rewards, and then prepare for next year's imperial examination, and become one of the real scholars and doctors of my Great Song Dynasty, and with the fame of Jinshi, with your talent, it is not impossible to become a pillar of the imperial court in the future." ”

Zhang Bin took a deep breath and said categorically: "The third suggestion given by the lowly choice minister. ”

Although he knew that even if he integrated the things in his mind and Zhang Bin before, it would still be difficult to be admitted to the Jinshi, but don't forget that he is an open person.

Although he didn't remember it very clearly, he also vaguely remembered the bias of the imperial examination questions during the reign of Shenzong, and he brushed the questions in a targeted manner, and then voted for the emperor and the big guy who made the questions, and the chance of being admitted to the Jinshi was still very large.

Han Jiang chuckled and said: "Very good, Benxiang didn't misunderstand you, this is the path that my generation should choose, Benxiang will personally write a letter to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely follow your wishes, and Your Majesty will definitely summon you." You are now just a staff officer around you, you don't need to wait for the imperial court's resignation documents, and the prime minister will approve you to go to Beijing for documents, you can pack your things today, leave tomorrow, and go directly to Beijing. ”

Zhang Bin knew that Han Jiang was so thoughtful about his own affairs, mainly because he had just offered advice to turn Heiluobu into the second Zhe clan, and he knew that his suggestions were interlocking, and with Han Jiang's experience and mind, he knew that the feasibility was extremely high when he heard it.

And if this thing is done, it will be too beneficial to Han Jiang, first of all, he can return to the center of the court, and secondly, with this strong and colorful credit, the probability of competing for the position of prime minister in the future will be a few points higher.

Of course, Han Jiang didn't just repay the favor, it can also be seen from Han Jiang's eyes that the other party values Zhang Bin's talent very much, and now the party struggle in the Great Song Dynasty is extremely fierce, and Han Jiang also needs a winged helper.

Obviously, Han Jiang wants to pull him into his faction, if Zhang Bin comes to say something like 'only Han Xiang's head is the first to look forward to it in the future' at this time, it can be regarded as a gang, and Han Jiang's Han clan is deeply rooted in the Great Song Dynasty, and the Han family is also a towering tree for Zhang Bin today, and it is easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and it is conceivable that he will definitely soar in the future.

But Zhang Bin, who knows more about this period of Song history, knows that the Han Party is by no means the best choice for him to join the gang, and he also hates party strife very much, not to mention that although the Guan Xue advocated by his Lao Tzu is weak, it also belongs to a faction, and it can only be Guan Xue if he wants to join the gang.

It's just that now the faction of Guan Xue is more in academia and doesn't have much say in officialdom, of course, because he took the initiative to resign, and he was only a fourth-grade official before he resigned.

So he pretended not to know Han Jiang's hint, and bowed down gratefully and said, "Thank you, Xianggong, I will go back and prepare, and I will leave Dashun City tomorrow and go to the capital." ”

……

……

After Zhang Bin came out of the post house, he went to see Wang Sunchen and Liu Changzuo who were waiting for his news, and when the two heard that their wishes had come true, they were immediately surprised, especially Wang Sunchen, who thought that he would be promoted to two levels at most, and he didn't want to be promoted directly to four levels, and the joy can be imagined.

Zhang Bin just now also briefly said why Han Xianggong agreed to promote the two officials, the two knew that this was Zhang Bin's credit, and they were very grateful, Liu Changzuo pulled Zhang Bin's sleeve, and said a little impatiently: "Ziyu, you are going to Bianjing tomorrow, we will go to the Red Moon Tower for you now." ”

"That's right, our brother must have a good drink tonight!" Wang Sunsin also shouted loudly beside him.

……

……

Liu Changzuo and Wang Sunchen, plus Hutou and Liu Changzuo's eight personal soldiers, a large group of people surrounded Zhang Bin and entered the Red Moon Tower.

Looking at the awe of Lao Bustard Shi Niang and the various characters in the hall when they looked at him, Zhang Bin remembered that the last time he came to Hongyue Tower, he was despised and ridiculed and pointed at by everyone, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Without Zhang Bin's words, Liu Changzuo shouted a few times, and Shi Niang respectfully prepared everything, the best box, the best girl.

went up to the second floor, entered the best box of the Red Moon Building, and the wine and food were filled with the long case in front of the three people, and then the two top courtesans in the Red Moon Building also came up with a group of dancing girls, and after saluting and receiving the reward, they began to perform to help the fun.

Considering that there had been Western thieves such as moon slaves in Hongyue Mansion before, Zhang Bin excused himself from the woman who accompanied him to drink.

Zhang Bin is the protagonist today, he doesn't want women around him, Wang Sunchen and Liu Changzuo are naturally inconvenient, but the two courtesans in the field are very standard, the jade hand gently twists the pipa slowly, and the red lips and small mouth begin to sing tactfully.

The pipa is loud, the singing voice is melodious, a group of dancers dance, the dance clothes on their bodies are looming, the three of them are drinking and talking, and they are fascinated by the sound and lust, although they are not intoxicated, but they are also delicious.

At this time, there was a noise downstairs, and then there was a sound of "kicking and kicking" upstairs, and many people came to their box listening to the sound.
