As early as two months ago, the Xingtian Army sent a message to all parts of the Wuchang Mansion, informing the world that the Xingtian Army was going to conduct the first selection of civil officials in Wuchang Mansion on the 15th day of the lunar month, and those who passed the examination could be appointed officials according to their abilities displayed in the examination, and they could become officials in the jurisdiction of the Xingtian Army in the future.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused another uproar in various places, the scholars have always been inclined to the Xingtian Army or the least number of people from all walks of life, it can be said that the vast majority of people are hostile to them, because the various righteous armies, including the Xingtian Army, are regarded as thieves, not orthodox, only the current court is orthodox, and at the same time, the family background of some scholars also determines their identity, it is impossible to stand on the same front with the Xingtian Army and the Righteous Army, they are mostly gentry or the heirs of wealthy families, It represents the interests of the upper strata of society, after all, in this era, reading is not the right of all people in the world, it costs a lot of money to read, and it takes a lot of money to rush for the exam.

On the other hand, the Xingtian Army and the Righteous Army were based on the peasants and small craftsmen at the lowest level, representing the interests of the lowest stratum and making enemies of the upper strata.

The reason why some readers were used by the righteous army, these people were either scholars who failed the test, felt that they had not met talents, learned a lot of things, read a lot, but could not be used by the court, so they were restless, and found another way out, simply voted for the Xingtian Army or other righteous army, in this regard, some of the Ming scholars who voted for slaves outside the customs are also considered to be representatives, and the other is that some readers were forcibly taken captive, in order to save their lives, they had to do it! In addition, when some scholars were in turmoil in the world, their families went bankrupt and had no way to make a living, so that they were forced to live in order to find food to eat, serve the righteous army or take refuge in Jiannu, and only a very small number of people defected to the righteous army because they were not used to seeing the government and the court so tyrannical and tyrannical.

Now that the Xingtian Army has played a signboard and set up a recruitment flag, this time it is not a soldier to recruit, but to recruit a group of people to be officials in the Xingtian Army, so things are a bit intriguing.

In fact, since last year, the Xingtian Army began to fight a public opinion war with the imperial court, through the matter of entering the Kou Jiannu Army, the Xingtian Army has repeatedly issued various documents throughout the country, exposing and criticizing some of the practices of the current imperial court, although the imperial court and the government have refuted this one by one, but after all, it has also made many people understand some of the practices of the Xingtian Army, at least in the matter of the Jiannu Army, although many people do not know the truth, but more or less also make many people begin to stop believing in the statements of the imperial court and the government, In this way, a lot of points were added to the Xingtian Army, especially after Gao Qiqian was captured and surrendered to the Xingtian Army, many troubles between the emperor and the central government were exposed, which made the reputation of the imperial court among all levels of personnel suffer a great blow, even if the imperial court and the government refuted it, but it made many people already believe that this was true, and it made the court's approach seem a little hypocritical.

At the beginning of the year, the imperial court took advantage of the fact that Xiao Xingtian led his troops to resist the Jiannu army in the Jingfu area, and suddenly sent troops to attack the territory of the Xingtian army, Zuo Liangyu also created a massacre in Nanyang, and the Xingtian army returned to the division in anger, so that Shandong was invaded by the Jiannu army, and Jinan Mansion was broken, these things were spread by the Xingtian army through various channels and channels, and many people scolded the court for being bastards. Go to help the imperial court fight Jiannu, it's just that your court doesn't cooperate, and you also take the opportunity to drag the back legs of the Heavenly Army and copy people's nests, which is the wrong thing for the imperial court, this is good, the Xingtian Army was forced to return to the division, and the Jiannu Army took the opportunity to enter Koushan Shandong, which harmed a large number of people of the Ming Dynasty, including of course a large number of wealthy gentry in Shandong, so the practice of the imperial court even many readers feel disdainful.

In the past nearly a year, the Xingtian Army should have been completely angered by the imperial court, not only did it take more than half a year to conquer almost the entire Huguang, as well as part of Jiangxi, and the north basically controlled Shanxi in the hands of the Xingtian Army, but what about the official court? At this time, they showed their weakness, a branch of the official army was defeated under the Xingtian Army, and there were also court officials who surrendered to the Xingtian Army, and even Changsha Deputy Soldier Beidao Gao Doushu joined the Xingtian Army, and was entrusted by Xiao Xingtian to the errand of the prefect of Runing, and took office immediately, the news of the defeat and surrender of the Shaanxi General He Renlong was announced by the Xingtian Army in October, and it caused a violent shock, and one by one the vassal kings fell into the hands of the Xingtian Army, and they were either killed or demoted to commoners. And the imperial court in the face of the offensive of the Xingtian Army, but has never been able to do anything, defeated again and again, now Huguang is lost, Jiangxi is not guaranteed, Nanzhili has become the next target of the Xingtian Army, for people who have a little knowledge of geography, they all understand what will happen next.

If the Ming Dynasty can't recover its decline, then the Ming Dynasty can basically be said to be over! As for the remaining provinces, it is simply not enough to confront the Xingtian Army, and the Ming Dynasty can only sit and wait for the Xingtian Army to go north and destroy it.

It was also at this time that the Xingtianjun suddenly announced that they were going to open a department to recruit scholars, which was undoubtedly equivalent to dropping a bombshell among the people.

In fact, now the Xingtian Army is opening a branch to take scholars, it is really a bit unjustifiable to say it, Xiao Tianjian has not yet been crowned king, let alone announced the founding of the country, and the opening of the branch is only said to be an official for the Xingtian Army, what is this official? But this is not a big impact, it is the pig can also see it, this Xiao Xingtian is obviously at this point, he does have the ability and strength to win the world, although he has not yet called the king, but his desire to seize the world is already obvious, no one would think that Xiao Tianjian will only force the current emperor to abdicate, and change the surname Zhu to be the new emperor, what should he Cao Cao coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, sooner or later as long as he takes the world, he will definitely ascend the throne as the emperor.

So at this time, where to go is already a matter that many readers have begun to consider, some readers with a clear eye, so they immediately put their minds alive, sooner rather than later, if you go to take the exam now, it will definitely be easier than later, and many things in the Xingtian Army are not perfect, and now they are in a hurry to recruit officials and do things for him Xiao Xingtian, so the possibility of winning the list is very great, and once you can get on the list at this time, it will be better when Xiao Tianjian ascends to the world. can have the identity of a dragon first, and at least it is not good to be on the list, at least it is equivalent to showing their attitude to the Xingtian Army, they are unwilling to be enemies of the Xingtian Army, and it is also a good choice to use this as their family's talisman in the future.

Of course, there are also risks in this, once you go to take the exam, then it is equivalent to completely tearing your face with the current imperial court, there is no way back in the future, once the imperial court returns to the light in the future, and the punishment of the heavenly army is destroyed, then they dare to be the first to eat crabs will also be unlucky, and the court will definitely settle accounts with them, at least a crime of rebellion from a thief is impossible to run away, it is cheap to be arrested and exiled, and the probability of robbing the family and beheading will be quite large.

Therefore, if you participate in the opening of the Xingtian Army in Wuchang Mansion this time, it will stump a group of people, many people are secretly at home, turning around the room, measuring the gains and losses, some people bite the pen, some people go around in the house and grind the soles of their shoes, and some people are in a hurry to get on fire and have a mouthful of fire, and even people who want to hang themselves are tangled.

However, in November, Wuchang Mansion still began to usher in an endless stream of readers, most of these readers are people on the territory that the Xingtian Army has controlled, anyway, for them, now the Xingtian Army has controlled the place where their family is located, and they have also seen the power of the Xingtian Army with their own eyes, so it is easy to choose, and many people immediately began to rush to Wuchang Mansion to take the exam.

Among them, there are also a small number of scholars' homes are not in the area controlled by the Xingtian Army, these people are obviously more courageous readers, determined to gamble, bet on the treasure of the Xingtian Army to seize the world in the future, so they quietly went on the road, entered the area controlled by the Xingtian Army, and after revealing their identities, someone escorted them to Wuchang Mansion to register their names of origin, and then placed them to live and wait for the day of the examination to come.

Xiao Tianjian attaches more importance to the scholars who came to take the exam this time, in the Wuchang Mansion, he chose a few officials or mansions of the gentry who were confiscated by him, cleaned out the rooms among them, and recruited a group of people to cook and laundry for them, take care of their lives, all board and lodging are free, and they are also provided with a small amount of wine every day for them to drink, which can be said to be considered for them, such conditions will not be available during the scientific examination of the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning of December, more and more scholars began to pour into the city of Wuchang one after another, and Xiao Tianjian even opened a barracks outside the city, allowing these soldiers who arrived in advance to go to the barracks to observe the appearance of the Xingtian Army.
