"Lao Fang, it turns out that when I left Shuo County, you were promoted to become the county master, and now Shuo County has become an upper county, and the tide is even higher. This time they want to pick peaches, and if they don't settle you properly, then I'm not done with them. Where are you going now, you should be good, right? Chen Fei asked.

Equation Xi said helplessly: "Hey, go to Menxia Province and be a left-hand picker." ”

"Left Pickup? This location is good, but it is close to the emperor's officials! Chen Fei said.

"Hmph, who knows if the emperor will look down on me!" Equation West complained.

In Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, there are two sets of idle jobs. They are the left and right scattered riders, the left and right to consult the doctor, the left and right to make up for the que, and the left and right to pick up the legacy. And the duties of these people are nominally to worship and ridicule, and to give advice to the emperor. This official position does not have any actual responsible duties, he is in the palace, to see what the emperor is missing, and then put forward his own opinions. This kind of official position has no rights, and it is a position close to the emperor, who knows if the emperor attaches importance to it? And if the emperor doesn't pay attention to it, your official position is just a fart, and you have no rights. If your suggestion is taken seriously, then the emperor will also attach importance to you, and then give you a lot of power, and even other high-ranking officials will look at your face.

So this is actually just a close attendant, and the right depends entirely on the emperor's opinion. So Equation Xi was a little dissatisfied, he actually just got such an official position with no rights, and he had to accompany the emperor. Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and the ancients were very careful. If the emperor has a bad temper, then maybe this kind of person who follows him will also be unlucky at any time. So it's best not to follow the emperor, but his position is also the position of following the emperor, which has no practical meaning, and is equivalent to the emperor's follower.

"You're not bad, the emperor is a person who listens to opinions, so you don't have to worry too much. As long as you have something to say, you can still be appreciated. Chen Fei said.

Of course, Chen Fei knew that Li Shimin was not the kind of faint king. Judging from his impression of later generations, the biggest advantage is that he can listen to opinions, and he will not be killed for advising him. Li Shimin is still relatively tolerant of his courtiers, as long as it is not a crime such as rebellion, he can almost be forgiven. Even if he rebelled against him, he could forgive. Originally, Hou Junji rebelled in history, and Li Shimin had planned to pardon Hou Junji. However, in the end, Hou Junji was "said" to death by those ministers. If Hou Junji doesn't die, then I'm afraid he will be able to enter Lingyan Pavilion.

Hearing Chen Fei's assurance, Equation Xi was a lot more relieved, because as long as the emperor was a person who could listen to opinions. Then your own left gleaning can be useful. If the emperor doesn't listen to the opinion, then I'm afraid he will really be unlucky. And those of them who used to be local officials don't know the temperament of the central bosses. Especially the emperor's temperament, they have no way of knowing, after all, it is too far away from the center. Now that I have come to work in the central government, I naturally don't know how to deal with these bigwigs. If you don't say a good word and offend these big guys, it can be said that your future is ruined, and you even have to worry about your life! Ancient officialdom. is not as civilized as the later generations, and the later generations will generally not lose their heads even if they are whole people, and they will not harm their families. But in ancient times, it was much darker, and not only could you lose your head. It will also harm the family! So this is the progress of civilization, but it is not so civilized at the moment.

"Yang Jiaxiang, what about you? Where are you now? Chen Fei asked.

Yang Jiaxiang said with some hesitation: "Although I can already be transferred to Chang'an, my grade is not too high." Instead, it was well arranged. But where I go, there is no fixed number on it. It seems that there are many positions that are suitable for me, but in fact, there are many positions that I cannot go to. For example, those who need literary style too much. I won't be able to go. There are a lot of them, and I don't know where to go. ”

Yang Jiaxiang's grade is relatively low, so it is easy to arrange, but Chang'an also has many positions that can arrange him. However, in such large institutions, many of them are official positions that do not have much real power, so it is indeed not easy to want an official position with real power and a future. In particular, there are many people in Chang'an who seem to have a very high grade, but they have no rights, at most they are the kind of non-leadership positions in later generations. For example, the senior teacher of Guozijian is Dr. Guozi, although he seems to be a high-ranking official of the fifth grade, he does not have much power in his hands. And it is not easy to adjust to other positions, because the academic component of this official position is too high, and it is easy to get in and out of it.

Therefore, first of all, you must not go to an academic official position, and once you go, you can say that you have no future. It is necessary to find a promising official position, so that it can gradually progress in the future, even if the grade is lower at the beginning.

"Didn't you go to the event?" Chen Fei asked.

Since ancient times, there have been all kinds of means to run for official positions. If this kind of saying is good, it is recommended by Mao, and if it is not good, it is going through the back door. Chen Fei is really strange, this Yang Jiaxiang, who is usually a slippery person, would not go to run for official positions, it is really strange.

"Hey, I don't know which yamen is missing, so naturally I don't know which direction to move?" Yang Jiaxiang said.

Chen Fei thought about it, how could such a person who had just entered Chang'an know which department had vacancies and was suitable for his official position. So I can only wait for the assignment from above, and then go to work. But this feeling of being decided by someone is not very good, and you can't choose by your own will, so most people are not very comfortable. But this is the weakness of being a low-level official, you can't choose an official position by your own temperament, you can just be greeted by your superiors, and there is no room for you to play on your own.

"So be it! I don't have a principal here in the treasury, are you interested? If you want, I can recommend you to Du Shangshu! Chen Fei said.

"Yes, the head of the treasury, I will!" Yang Jiaxiang said.

An office director subordinate to Chen Fei, the head of the Treasury Department, helped Chen Fei deal with some manuscript content. And this position is also good, especially being able to continue to do things by Chen Fei's side, which gives him the opportunity to "follow the leader". Maybe it won't be long before Chen Fei is promoted again, and he will be able to follow suit. (To be continued......)
