Jiang Wan and the three of them didn't dare to put down the chopsticks, Li Ming smiled when he saw this, symbolically picked up a piece of fish belly and put it in the bowl, and everyone began to put down the chopsticks. Among them, there are five people from the chief examiner, and the speed of chopsticks is not slow at all.

Before coming, Jiang Wan and the others already knew that the meals on the table in front of them were all cooked by Li Ming himself. I was already full of curiosity in my heart, but now I can't help but put down my chopsticks when I see the five examiners eating with relish and enjoying it.

"This ......" Jiang Wan sandwiched a piece of braised pork, only to feel that this piece of meat melted in his mouth, with a hint of sweetness in the fragrance, it was obviously pork belly but it was cooked fat but not greasy, and the control of heat and seasoning was almost to the extreme.

In the end, he subconsciously tasted all the dishes, only to know that Li Ming's cooking skills had reached the point of being superb. Especially the fish, when I ate it in my mouth, I felt like it had suddenly come to life.

"Master, it's getting harder and harder to eat a meal that you cooked yourself." Zhang Mo said slowly, others didn't dare to say anything, just listen to the title, you know that Zhang Mo is Li Ming's family, this is a privilege he has.

"I remember a few days ago, you brought Cai Yan over to eat......" Li Ming looked at Zhang Mo angrily, "Speaking of my identity, there are some things that you should pay attention to, what's the matter with the smell of oil smoke all day long?" ”

After a pause, he continued: "Unless there are special circumstances, I will not cook myself in the future." Every three years from now on, I will cook a meal to celebrate the new champions, Bangyan and Tanhua. If you want to eat it, try to be an examiner again! ”

"In the future, the qualifications of the examiners, it is estimated that everyone will have to fight for their heads." Cai Yong smiled and quipped.

After a meal, it turned out that the main table was the fastest to eat, not to mention that the five examiners were competing here, only Jiang Wan and the three of them, and then the speed of the chopsticks was not slow, after all, if you don't grab it, you won't have to grab it.

Looking at the empty plate, the three of them suddenly reacted, but they were a little rude before. However, the examiners and Li Ming disagreed, the three of them ate with real temperament, but it was not good to be too modest.

After three flavors of food and three rounds of wine, Li Ming did not arrange any performances, and stood up directly. The candidates also stopped their chopsticks, looked at Li Ming, and sat upright.

"Don't be too nervous, I just want to talk to everyone." Li Ming smiled, "Many of you are from Huiji Academy, some are from big families, but many of you are from poor families. Some people may be talented and have been admitted to the Jinshi after two or three years of study, and some people have studied hard for several years before finally achieving today's results.

You will soon become a Lang official, and then after three years, you will be assigned to various positions according to your performance, and there is even a possibility that some of you will be sent abroad. Your career as an official is about to begin! ”

After a pause, he looked at everyone and continued: "However, I hope you understand that as the so-called life learns from old age, don't think that becoming an official is your focus, unfortunately, this is actually the starting point of your life!" Do not forget that it is your life's worth to have the opportunity to improve your abilities and knowledge.

At the same time, you must also be clear that I use a system here to manage people, if you are an official to make a fortune, the gate is over there, go out and turn left. Don't think I'm joking, my punishment for corrupt officials here is much stricter than that of the big man, and the purpose of giving you so many silver coins every month is to let you have enough economic conditions and not have to stretch out your hand to the people.

If you are really short of money, you can go to business or farming, but if you dare to use your power for personal gain, I'm sorry, I can't spare you. If you can't accept it, I won't embarrass you. ”

"Students don't dare!" The Jinshi stood up and shouted one after another, and before they came, Cai Yong also reminded them that since the moment they were admitted to the Jinshi, they would automatically become Li Ming's students. Similarly, in the batch of people who were raised in the examination, the five examiners are also equivalent to their teachers. Among them, the marriage of Cai Yong and Zhang Mo is the most beneficial to the two of them, and they have added a lot of contacts.

"Sixteen words are given to you, and it should be the only lesson that I, the teacher, will give you. These sixteen words are 'Erlu, the people anoint the people, the people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive'. Li Ming nodded and said solemnly.

"Students are taught!" When the jinshi heard this, they saluted and shouted again.

"There are a couple of other people who are a bit of a special situation, and I'll say a few words to them...... Can Pan Jun be available? Li Ming asked.

"The students are here!" Pan Jun didn't expect Li Ming to actually call his name, and hurriedly got up.

"You are only fifteen years old this year, I didn't expect that you are already a high school jinshi, your talent is good, but now that you are a professional, the accumulation of knowledge and experience is still insufficient. I hope you can go to Huiji Academy to study for three years, and after three years, you don't need to take an exam, and you can directly become a Lang official, how about it? Li Ming looked at Pan Jun.

"Students should follow the instructions of their teachers." Pan Jun has no opinion, he also had a very hard time in this exam. If it weren't for his cousin Jiang Wan to tutor him, I'm afraid it would be good to be able to lift someone.

"Jiangxia Fei Yi is here!" Li Ming chanted again.

"The students are here!" Fei Yi hurriedly got up, he is eighteen years old this year, and he lost his father since he was a child, so he passed the crown ahead of schedule.

"Your talent is also good, originally in the top three competition, but unfortunately only the top three were selected for the scientific examination. I am not telling you to laugh at you, but to tell you that you have the same talents as them, and that you should not give up your studies, and perhaps your future achievements will be above the three of them. Li Ming looked at Fei Yi and said.

"Students follow the teachings of their teachers!" Fei Yi was also full of fighting spirit when he heard this, to be honest, when he learned that he only won the fourth place, he was indeed a little disappointed.

"You three, don't let him surpass you!" Li Ming looked at Jiang Wan and the others again!

"Students obey!" The three of them hurriedly replied, although they couldn't turn back, they also felt Fei Yi's burning eyes.

"Finally, Yingchuan Xu Shu!" Li Ming looked somewhere at the end of the seat, saw Xu Shu get up and saluted, and said with a smile, "It's also interesting to say, there is a student who was admitted to the Jinshi and gave up the school register, so we added one to the lifter." I've read your test papers, the overall situation and military talent are very good, but the ability to govern is slightly insufficient, but it can also be seen that the main reason is the lack of accumulation of knowledge, and it may not be impossible to catch up. ”

"Thank you for the compliment!" Xu Shu was also very moved when he heard this, after all, when he was notified that he could come to the banquet, his mood was indeed very complicated, on the one hand, he was very excited, and on the other hand, he felt that he was just lucky, but his name was not true.

"It's just ......" Li Ming looked at Xu Shu with interest, but the latter 'chuckled' in his heart and suddenly became worried.

"Your talent, I think it should be in the aspect of commanding troops to fight, and in the future, you may not be able to become a single town like Wang Yu. Personally, I think that if you go to Wanling Military Academy to study for three years, and enlist in the army after three years, I will give you a start as a captain, how about it? ”

"The disciple is willing, thank you!" Xu Shu weighed it when he heard this, and then replied. Li Ming is right, his talent in military ranks and strategy is higher than his ability to govern the government and the people. Perhaps, the military is the most suitable place for him!

"Next fall, there will be a martial arts exam. I also plan to recruit some civilian military talents through martial arts. If you have a good candidate in your family, you can let them know and let them come over for reference in August next year! Li Ming finally looked at everyone and said.
