Wei Ya is majestic and sonorous, giving people an unquestionable feeling.

"No!" The civil and military officials shouted in unison.

"Retreat!!" Si Zhong's sharp voice sounded, and the civil and military officials bent down again to compose a compilation, sending Wei Ya away, and after Wei Ya left, the civil and military officials walked together one after another, leaving the Taizheng Hall one after another.

On the way out, the ministers of the DPRK and China congratulated the five Shangshu lords one after another, flattering them all the way.

"Thank you Lord Xiangbang for your support, this grace, the lower official is unforgettable!"

Outside the Taizheng Hall, Tang Yang, the head of the household, respectfully saluted and thanked Meng Ge, who was leaving.

Meng Ge stopped when he heard this, turned to look at Tang Yang, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be like this, you have today, it's all your own efforts, if you can't catch up with Your Majesty's problem just now, no matter how bad your tongue is, you can't be the head of the household, this is all you deserve, don't be thankful, if you really thank you, thank Your Majesty!" ”

"Naturally, thank you Your Majesty for your grace, but if it weren't for Xiangbang's recommendation, Your Majesty wouldn't have noticed the lower officials!" Tang Yang looked humble and bent down to write.

Meng Ge shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned around and left...

An hour later!

"The emperor's edict, read the world's scholars to study poetry and books, useless, unable to develop their ambitions, especially held the imperial examination, all the scholars of the Great Wei Empire, can be in the local school for the examination, the middle of the Feng Sheng, can be in the government as an errand, the first local Feng Jieyuan, can be appointed from the nine official ....."

"The emperor's edict, read the world's scholars to study poetry and books, useless, unable to develop their ambitions, especially held the imperial examination, all the scholars of the Great Wei Empire, can be in the local school for the examination, the middle of the Feng Sheng, can be in the government as an errand, the first local Feng Jieyuan, can be appointed from the nine official ....."

The heralds of the government rode horses through the streets and issued notices announcing the imperial examination system, and at the same time, a large number of agents were sent to various places to notify the local government, which in turn issued notices.

"Can you become an official by exam? God wasn't kidding me? ”

"Hey, oh my God, I regret it, I knew it was like this, I should have read a little more, if I became an official, I would have no worries about food and clothing for a few lifetimes!"

"Haha, great, Your Majesty's Holy Grace, I finally thought of us scholars!"

"The exam starts in October, no, I have to go back and reread it a few times!"

The people who saw the announcement and heard the officers and soldiers read it out discussed it with their neighbors one after another, and countless soldiers were extremely excited and ran directly home to read and write.

Time passed slowly, and after the passage of time, the news of the imperial examination spread all over the country, and countless scholars were excited about it....

In a large village in eastern Yangzhou, three miles west of the East China Sea coast, more than a dozen children are playing, wives of women sit under their roofs, picking and washing vegetables, and occasionally laughing with their neighbors, while adult men fish in boats or harvest this year's harvest in the fields.

Children over the age of 6 and under the age of 14 read and write in the village school, and the sound of children reciting in unison can be heard from time to time, making the whole village full of vitality.

This is Qinghai Village, Pingshan County, Dongyang County, Yangzhou, Qinghai Village is warm in spring and cool in summer, with fertile water and soil.

In a remote corner of Qinghai Village, a family lives here, the house is a blue brick house, and the inner house is clean, from which it can be seen that the people living here are not poor.

In one of the rooms in the house, a 20-year-old young man sat cross-legged on the ground, his elbows pressed on the small low table, holding a bamboo slip in both hands, looking at it with relish, some could not understand it, and he also marked it with a brush dipped in red.

The young man is handsome, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, long hair hanging down from his waist, a seven-foot body, and a four-foot long sword at his waist.

But those who observe carefully will find that the young man has a look of sorrow, as if he has been lucky enough to do something unsatisfactory.

This young man's name is Qingmu, nineteen years old, his parents make a living from fishing and farming, because his father is highly skilled, and he is an old fisherman, every time he catches a lot of fish, and even some rare fish can be made up, now the empire is rich, the people are bulging, and the people in the central and northern parts of the empire are extremely obsessed with seafood, resulting in Qinghai Village relying on fishing, making a lot of money every year, as long as the village is willing to work, there are more than a dozen taels of silver.

Qingmu's money can rank second in Qinghai Village, the first is naturally the village head, the village chief has the imperial court, and he goes to fish and farm when he has nothing to do, he is a hard-working village head, supported by the villagers, and has both ability and political integrity!

Today, Qingmu's parents went to sea with the village chief and others, and it is estimated that they will not be able to come back until dark.

"Alas!"

Qing Mu let out a long sigh, gently put down the bamboo slip, and looked out the window, the location of Qing Mu's house is the highest place in the village, you can see the blue sea, looking at the seagulls swimming in the sky above the sea, Qing Mu was envious.

When will I be able to leave Qinghai Village and go to a broader world to show myself!

He doesn't want to be a fisherman like his father, and he doesn't want to stay in Qinghai Village forever, the empire is very large, there are countless prosperous places, Tianjing City, at the feet of the emperor, is a prosperous city that never stops at twelve o'clock, there, everywhere is the prince and prince, every inch of land is like gold, there is where he should go.

It's a pity, not to mention Tianjing City, Yangzhou Prefecture has never been there!

If you want to go, you don't have the conditions to go, so what are you going to do in Tianjing City? After leaving Qinghai Village, he is nothing, unless he joins the army and leaves here as an imperial soldier, but this road, he doesn't want to choose, he wants to leave here in another capacity!

"Scholars are useless, reading is useless, and useless is a scholar!"

Qingmu's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness, he studied at the age of six, and studied hard in the cold window for thirteen years, day after day, year after year, but there is no day for him to come out, he has always curled up in the house to read and write, and practiced his sword from time to time to vent.

Two and a half years after the establishment of the empire, His Majesty the Emperor's gaze never seemed to stay on the world's scholars, his eyes were always in the army, and he had just dominated the world for two years, and he once again waved his army south to attack Baiyue.

Now, if you want to get ahead, there is no way out except to join the army, although you can be knighted by farming, but he doesn't want that knight!

"Wen is declining and Wu Sheng!" Qing Mu sighed. Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Great Wei Empire: The Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
