Three days, these are three days of torture, many people can't eat or sleep, so they look forward to these three days passing early.

Now, three days later, many people hope that this day will not come so soon, and they are not mentally prepared.

But no matter what, the three days came, and they saw a thick list, without any rules, that is, on the city wall, the names of all the candidates, the results of the two exams were listed in a table, and the rankings were posted there.

"Big brother, you won the third place!" Lin Song immediately stepped forward to congratulate.

"The first place is called Niu Venus, who is coming?" On the contrary, Mo Dye was very unhappy, after all, he thought he could win the first place.

"I'm number 10, and I'm lucky." Lin Song smiled and pointed to his own name in the tenth place, and said in response to the question.

"No matter who he is, there are so many talented people in the world, when the princes above the court are admitted, they only think about fighting for more talents for their factions, but they always forget the real talents. Even if you are lucky enough to be able to ascend to the court, you will either enter a certain faction, or you will wait to be excluded from the court, just like Xu Guangqi ......" Guan Dao said with a little cynicality.

"If you get the sixth place, it will naturally be a big opinion, the one you are talking about is not now also an official reinstatement, and now he is already a waiter of the Ministry of Rites." Li Luo teased.

"Speaking of which, how many are you?" Mo Dye looked left and right, and only saw his three brothers.

"Actually, I didn't answer the next day, so I don't think I will get a high score. I have to regret telling my brothers that there is something white in my family, and there is no way to get ahead this time, and I have to go back to the funeral as soon as possible......" Li Luo looked depressed.

"How can this be, your luck is inevitably ......," Lin Song stopped talking halfway through.

"Perhaps it also responds to the examiner's words: 'Luck is also one of the strengths of candidates'. In other words, if you are all in a high position in the future, and I am a latecomer, I don't know if the three of you still recognize me? Li Luo asked a little open-mindedly.

"Of course, we're brothers!" The three of them replied at the same time.

"Good brother!" Li Luo patted the three of them on the shoulder, then turned to leave.

The three of them wanted to keep him, so that they could have a parting drink before leaving, which was better than five days ago...... But when it was time to speak, he couldn't say anything, so he could only let Li Luo leave like this.

"Then again, the rankings and scores are out, but who is the official and doesn't seem to have posted it?" Lin Song soon discovered a problem.

"Actually, what you said has just been posted." Ink dye pointed to the city wall not far away.

At this time, it has been specially posted on red paper, and the list of admissions for each subject is on it. In total, a small number of candidates were admitted, and the rest were unsuccessful. What is frustrating is that the scores of those who are admitted to some other subjects are sometimes lower than the scores of some of the non-achievers. This not only excites these admittators, but also makes those who fail to make a fuss about it.

So, a special examiner stood up and directly pointed to the subjects above and announced: "Don't make any noise, in fact, I know why you failed." Looking at this table, there are only 30 positions on the government affairs side above, which means that only 30 people can qualify. We selected the top 30 people who applied for the subject of government affairs as the admittators, and the latter ones were naturally the losers.

In the same way, the group with the highest score is selected as the passer, and the rest are selected as the losers. There's no way if your score is higher than the first place in the other subject, and who asked you to apply for it wasn't which subject. In addition, when it comes to professional issues, even if you apply for that subject, you may not be able to become a qualified candidate. ”

Hearing what the examiner said, the candidates couldn't make any noise, the test results were there, and they could only blame themselves for choosing a too bumpy road. Everyone knows that the subject of government affairs is the most popular, but the most reported by everyone is government affairs. So it became clear that most of the people were eliminated. On the contrary, those who applied for other subjects, some of them were at the bottom, but the number was too small, so he was admitted.

Luck, sure enough, is also one of the candidates' luck, which must be paid attention to.

But even if it's luck, it can only be this time, and next time, everyone has experience, and if you don't have enough real talent to learn, you can't be fooled.

At this time, scouts came to report the good news, and the counties of Haoyang and Hancheng were breached, and the two places were already included in the base territory of the Salvation Army. As a native of Shaanxi, Guan Dao's first reaction was that Tongzhou was about to fall into the hands of the Salvation Army. Then the second reaction was to highly praise such a thing, because he was about to become an official under the command of this anti-thief!

"Show ......" In the distance, Ma Yu took a sip after seeing this scene.

"I knew it was a show, but I actually laid down these two places ten days ago, and it took ten days to get the officials in there to come over to take the exam, so I postponed the exam for ten days. What makes candidates adapt to the situation in the examination room is just a scene. The county magistrate of Whitewater County said with a smile.

"Fortunately, Ma's official position was retained in this exam......" Ma Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's the county order of Pucheng County, who failed the exam and was demoted to the deputy county magistrate to be retained, from the chief official to the adjutant, or an official position that the imperial court did not have, which is depressing enough." It's rare for the county to have the kung fu to joke, and apparently he also passed the exam.

Maybe I once hoped that Ma Yu would not pass the exam, but I also thought about it, what I was most familiar with during this time was criminal prosecution, if I changed to government affairs, I was afraid that I would have to adapt again, wouldn't it be uncomfortable enough? Besides, since there is a situation in Pucheng County, maybe he is still not qualified to become a county magistrate?

Thinking of this, the original little selfishness is gone.

"The most unlucky should be Zhang Yaodou, who was deprived of the qualification of the county order, and the entire Chengcheng County is going to undergo a major reshuffle." Ma Yu said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, the results of those candidates who came to take the exam have also been issued, so they are all colleagues in the future, why don't you go and see and get to know each other?" The county mentions yì to.

"It's good!" Ma Yu shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the city gate with the county leader.

The formal conferment is carried out three days later, and the candidates who have been admitted during this time are responsible for their food and lodging by the Baishui County Yamen. Of course, if you want to drink flower wine or have a banquet to celebrate, then pay for it yourself, before you have an errand, there will be no salary.

In just three days, Li Luo returned to his father in Jinyi Weiqianhu.

"What's the catch?" Old Man Li asked calmly.

"I got three candidates, and the interesting thing is that they all passed the exam this time." Li Luo smiled and took the exam paper in his arms.

"Let the following sons and daughters prepare, for the report on Shaanxi, just maintain the attitude of three points true and seven points false." Old Man Li looked at the questions on the exam paper, and then ordered Li Luo.

"Yes!" Li Luo didn't have any expression, just nodded silently.

He had already guessed that such a thief would become a big deal, and if he made proper friends, even if he didn't offend them, he would be able to bring endless benefits to himself in the future. In particular, it was the local and imperial officials who took the lead in telling lies. The so-called 'wood is beautiful in the forest and the wind will destroy it', and it is the right way to join the same stream.

At least, the one above will never know what the truth is.

Looking at the background of Li Luo's departure, Old Man Li showed a rare smile: "Unexpectedly, even you began to feel a little moved." Then again, if you hadn't been moved, I wouldn't have dared to do such a thing, old man...... In the end, Jinyiwei is the emperor's pro-army, and now that the pro-army is like this, can Daming still be saved? ”

Whether it is self-deprecation or compassion, a qiē quickly reverts to silence.

Three days later, the candidate was awarded an official position, and it was surprising that the three brothers had to go their separate ways.

Mo Dye was appointed as the county magistrate of Hancheng County, and there were two deputy county magistrates in charge of affairs below; Lin Song is the vice president of the Xuyang County Court; Guan Dao went to Huanglongshan to serve as the director of the Scientific Research Bureau. Of course, all three positions are temporary, and they have a one-year probationary period. If the three-month performance is not good, the job will be adjusted, or even fired. If the table is good, it will be officially turned positive, and the table will be raised by half a level.

"No matter where the earth is!" Ink Dye stretched out his right hand.

"No matter how dry the sea is!" Guan Dao stretched out his right hand.

"Ignore the changes in heaven and earth!" Lin Song also stretched out his right hand, and the right hands of the three of them were folded together.

"Never forget my brother!" The three of them said in unison.
