"How many officials?" Hearing this question, Liu Hong was stunned for a while, "I really haven't thought about this question!" ”

"Your Majesty, how can you not consider such an important issue?" Hearing Liu Hong's words, Jia Xu almost jumped up, "This matter is related to Weichen's worth and future!" ”

"Don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's too late for me to think about it now!" Looking at Jia Xu, who was the same as the cat scratch, Liu Hong smiled, "As the saying goes, in front of my door, you have to have six grades, otherwise the price will drop!" ”

"Your Majesty, you are so right!" Hearing this, Jia Xu was happy, even the gatekeepers were six-grade officials, and they were ranked here, how high did it have to be!

Liu Hong didn't care about Jia Xu's excitement, and muttered to himself, "The six products of the gatekeeper, and the one who manages the gatekeeper, is the fifth product, so the manager of foreign affairs must have at least four products." ”

"Your Majesty, if the manager of foreign affairs is the fourth grade, then the secretary can manage the affairs of foreign affairs, isn't it the third grade?"

"Ah, as a close minister of the Son of Heaven, it is reasonable for the secretary to give a third-grade official title!" Hearing this, Liu Hong nodded.

Seeing Liu Hong nodding, Jia Xu was even more excited, "Your Majesty, the secretaries are all third-grade, Weichen, the secretary general, is that a second-grade official?" ”

"Second rank official, how is this possible!" Seeing Jia Xu's anxious look, Liu Hong planned to tease him.

"Ah, no." Hearing Liu Hong's words, Jia Xu was a little disappointed, but then he was happy, "Okay, it's okay to start from the second grade, Weichen is not greedy." ”

"From the second grade?" Hearing this, Liu Hong looked at Jia Xu with disdain, "I can't afford to lose that person by implementing this kind of half-level official rank in the palace!" ”

"No, Your Majesty, the secretary general of Weichen is the same as the secretary. Are they all third-grade officials? At this time, Jia Xu was a little disappointed. He has also taken the lead, and he is at the same level as the secretary, which is called a promotion!

"Who said that?" Seeing Jia Xu's appearance, Liu Hong stopped teasing him, "My deputy secretary general is the second-grade official." How can the Secretary-General be a third-rank officer? ”

"Ah, Your Majesty, you won't directly promote Weichen to a first-class official, will you?"

Thinking of this possibility, Jia Xu was almost excited. You must know that this first-class official has reached the pinnacle that officials can reach.

"How could it be. That's what I thought. And after recruiting the secretary again, I directly issued a decree to make this matter a rule! Looking at the excited Jia Xu, Liu Hong said: "However, once this secretary general becomes a first-class official, it will be difficult for you kid to change jobs if you want to change jobs." After all, the official position of Yipin is not something that can be found at will. ”

"Your Majesty. Wechen doesn't plan to change jobs. Knowing that he had become a first-class official, Jia Xu was overjoyed, "Your Majesty, how good it is to be by your side." The Son of Heaven is close to the minister, the work is easy and decent, and the official position is so high, what kind of job does Weichen change. ”

"Okay, that's right. And so it was settled. After the Beijing exam, I will pick someone for your secretariat. ”

Knowing that he had become a first-class official, Jia Xu happily went to get busy. At this time, all the candidates also completed the state examination and looked at the list outside the yamen.

"Brother You'an, Brother Ziyu, sure enough. All three of us are on the list. Although he had long thought that they could pass the state exam, after being confirmed, Bingyuan was still very excited.

"Brother Genju, don't get excited. State exam. This is just the beginning. Everything, do you still have to take the results of the Beijing test? ”

"Yes, Brother Ziyu is right!" Hearing Hua Xin's words, Bing Yuan calmed down, "Since we have already passed the state test, we don't have to wait any longer, little brother is going to buy a ticket, let's leave for the capital now!" ”

"Brother Genju, don't be so troublesome." Hearing the words of the pathogen, Guan Ning said: "The little brother has already asked people to package the vehicle, so that we don't have to accommodate other car passengers, just go if you want, stop when you want, and tour all the way to the capital." ”

"Ah, how I didn't think of that! We, plus the scholars and servants, have to take up at least half of the long-distance bus. In this way, we can wrap the car, even if it doesn't cost much, it can be a lot more convenient, which is really a good idea! Saying that, Bing Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "If you want to talk about this long-distance bus, it's really a good thing." With them, getting around doesn't have to be as difficult as before. If it was left in the past, it would be difficult to travel from Shandong to the capital. ”

"Who says it isn't!" Hua Xin also sighed: "Since we have this long-distance bus, don't say that we have a study tour, even if the people go to visit relatives and friends, it is not a difficult thing." It's like in the past, relatives and friends were a little farther away, and they couldn't see each other a few times in their lives. Now, if you want to see it, you can buy a ticket, but it is really very convenient for the people! ”

"Ahem, our majesty has done a lot of things that are convenient for the people, such as a post office, a library, or something, which one is not very convenient for the people? It is precisely because of this that the younger brother changed his original intention, wanted to devote himself to officialdom, follow our majesty, and do more practical things for the people! Listening to the two of them, Guan Ning couldn't help but sigh.

"Alright, let's not talk about that. Let's hurry up and prepare, and get to the capital early. Although the grading assessment has removed a lot of unqualified ones, but the big man is so big, there must be a lot of qualified people, and we are late in the province, and we can't find an inn to stay! ”

"Yes, let's go back and prepare now, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning!"

The other candidates also had the same idea as these three people, and they all flocked to the capital. At this time, Liu Hong was also making difficulties in the Beijing Examination and the Palace Examination.

"What the hell is going to be asked?" Liu Hong kept pondering, "In the last imperial examination, my questions were about changing the law, becoming an official, and how to deal with the people's rebellion. And the question of the temple test is the big man in your heart. This time, I can't do it again! ”

Although Liu Hong has taken countless exams in his previous life. But he is really not very good at the test questions.

"Since after the imperial examination, those who are going to be officials, then these test questions must be the same as last time, mainly practical. And in order to test the candidate's real level, the exam questions must not be repeated. But it's not easy to meet these two conditions! ”

Liu Hong thought about it, but he didn't have a clue at all, and he was in a hurry in the hall.

"Well, since I can't think of it, I don't want to think about it yet. Go out and take a look, change your mind, and maybe you can figure out the topic at once! (To be continued.)
