In the 24 years since His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne as king, only generals have been famous all over the world, and only Meng Ge, the prime minister of the dynasty, has been famous all over the world.

Do you have to wait for Your Majesty to die before the spring of the scholar comes?

"Qingmu! Qingmu! ”

Suddenly, at this moment, there was a burst of anxious shouts from outside the house.

Qing Mu hurriedly ran out of the room and ran out of the house, and saw the village chief's son Qing Shui panting and sitting on the stone slab.

When Qing Mu saw Qing Shui's appearance, his heart became inexplicably anxious, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" Could it be that something big has happened, could it be my father..."

Qing Shui gasped and interrupted with a smile: "What do you think, I'm here to tell you a good news, great news, originally my father came to tell you about this, but when I went to sea, I can only serve!" ”

"What's the news?" Qing Mu raised his eyebrows, looking very puzzled.

"Just now someone from the county said that there was news from the county, saying that His Majesty the Emperor read the world and read poetry and books, but there was no use, and he could not develop his ambitions. Qing Shui said excitedly.

Qingshui and Qingmu have a very good relationship, although they are not brothers but they are like brothers, and they also like to study, the two often ask questions, Qingshui does not care about His Majesty the Emperor's eyes on the scholars, because his father is the village head, a hundred years later, no accident, he will be on top, and when the time comes, he will show a little talent, and it is not a difficult thing to be reused by the county officials.

And Qingmu is different, no one in the eighteen generations of the ancestors has an official body, if there is no way, it is impossible to be an official in this life!

Now that he got the news of the imperial examination, Qing Shui immediately excitedly passed the matter to Qing Mu, making Qing Mu happy.

Qing Mu looked stunned, staggered back a few steps, and almost fell to the ground, his expression was both sluggish and shocked.

Imperial examination! The middle one can be on an errand in the government!

Just a few numbers, it's surging into the brain!

"Great, great, great!"

"His Majesty the Emperor is worthy of being an emperor through the ages, he has not forgotten that I and other scholars, thirteen years, thirteen years of hard work, finally in exchange for the beginning!"

Qing Mu sat on the ground with a flushed face, his eyes flashed with tears, his expression was extremely excited, and he cried with joy!

After Qing Mu recovered from his excitement, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "By the way, what does it mean to be from the ninth rank official?" ”

I don't think I've ever heard of this official position, and it's not recorded in the books, so is it a new position like the history of the superintendent?

"It's an official rank, not an official position!" Qing Shui replied with a smile.

"What kind of product is your father?" Qing Mu asked curiously.

"Uh...."Qing Shui was embarrassed for a while, and said with a sneer: "How can my father be called an official, if it sounds good, he is a village head, and if it is ugly, he is the head of the village, to give you an analogy, the county order of our Pingshan County is just an official from the eighth grade, and the town mayor is from the ninth grade!" ”

"Shhh Qingmu gasped, the mayor turned out to be just from the ninth grade?

"So, if I am admitted to the first place in our Dongyang County, I can become the mayor of the town?" Qing Mu's eyes flashed with several fine lights.

The town mayor is already a big official in their eyes, and as for the county order, he is even more of a parent official, a behemoth!

Qing Shui pondered for a moment and nodded, "Theoretically, that's the case!" ”

"First, don't be arrogant, don't say brother, I don't support it, do you know how many scholars there are in Dongyang County? That's tens of thousands, besides, there is no need for the head of the middle case, as long as the middle school students can participate in the second-level imperial examination township examination, and the middle one can be a nine-rank official."

Qing Mu suddenly interrupted: "Wait, there is also a second-level imperial examination?" How many levels are there, what is the highest name, and how big an official can be! ”

"There are four levels in total, divided into the hospital examination, the township examination, the meeting examination, the palace examination, the college examination in the county school, the township examination in the state capital, the examination in the capital, the palace examination in the palace, I heard that the examiner of the palace examination is still His Majesty the Emperor, if you can get the first place in the palace examination, you will be awarded the title and given the official position of the fifth grade!" Qing Shui told everything he knew.

Qing Mu almost fainted, and he was overly excited.

His Majesty the Emperor is the examiner, from the five rank of the master! Oh my God, it's the gospel of the world's scholars!

"When is the test?" Qing Mu said a little impatiently.

"On October 1st, we are Dongyang County bachelors and need to go to Dongyang City!" Qing Shui replied quickly.

"It's early September today, we don't have much time, you go back first to prepare things, and when my father and mother come back, we will go to Dongyang City to take the exam together!" Qing Mu said anxiously.

Qinghai Village is only ten days away from Dongyang City, and there are still more than 20 days before the hospital examination, so there is plenty of time, but Qingmu still feels that time is pressing.

"Good!" Qing Shui nodded in agreement and left Qing Mu's house soon.

After Qing Shui left, Qing Mu also went into the house to pack the package, wrapped the useful bamboo slips, put the brush, there were not many bamboo slips, only four or five, and some clothes, as for the money, I had to come back from my father.

Not only Qingmu and Qingshui, but more than a dozen scholars from Qinghai Village got the news and were also packing up their baggage and preparing to enter the county seat for the exam, and some even couldn't wait and rushed directly to Dongyang City alone.

It stands to reason that there should not be many scholars in a village like this, but Yangzhou has long been included in the Wei State, and it is the richest state outside of Jingzhou, and Yangzhou is also the first batch of states to receive school education, so naturally there are many scholars.

Yangzhou Jingzhou Xuzhou is the most competitive state, no other, early school education, on the contrary, like Youzhou Liangzhou, there are only a handful of scholars, this is still in recent years, out of a little scholar, otherwise in addition to those old nobles, there are really not many literate people, not to mention scholars.

In the evening, when Shen Shi, Qingmu sat under the eaves, waiting for his father and mother to come home...

"What a good day!"

"Haha, yes!"

At this time, Qingmu's father and mother went home empty-handed, as for the empty-handed is not without harvest, but the regulations of the village, all the harvest of cooperative fishing is put together, and then the next day they will go to the city together to sell, lucky, there will be a caravan to come to collect, no need to go out.

Every time you go to sea, all the participants can basically harvest one or two taels of silver, if you catch rare seafood, it is a big profit, and it is not a problem to earn ten taels or even one hundred taels a day, no way, some large families like to eat these things.

Qing Mu's mother, Li Gui, saw Qing Mu sitting under the eaves of her house, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mu'er, why didn't you read in the room?" ”

According to the habit, at this time period, his own son should be reading. Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Great Wei Empire: The Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
