At present, there are more than 22,000 civil officials in the DPRK and China, and if the imperial court system is not changed, nearly 20,000 will be selected for the rest of their lives, and only a few 2,000 or 3,000 will be able to become Beijing officials.

If you want to change from a person to a Beijing official from the eighth grade, if you don't make great contributions, grind the survey for two years in one year, and grind enough for five terms, you must get the joint recommendation of five high-ranking officials at the state and road levels, meet the Son of Heaven, and deal with it appropriately before you can be promoted.

And after the Beijing official is promoted to the eighth rank, he can become a court official.

This is the eight-rank court official and the eight-rank Beijing official, it seems that there is only a one-level difference, but in fact, the difficulty is no less than that of a scholar to get a jinshi - even more difficult - the former only needs to read and compose, figure out the examiner's mind, as long as the brain is smart enough, even if he can't get a first-class, second-class, fifth-class jinshi, but he can barely get it.

However, the latter has to compete with thousands of carefully selected "officials", including not only those who are in the same department as themselves, but also those who became officials earlier than themselves.

The so-called court officials can also be understood as court officials, and the total number is only more than 1,000.

If you want to be a court official, you must first kill yourself from the hundreds of millions of people, become one of the 20,000 people, and then step on others to be a Beijing official with only two or three thousand, and finally stand out and be a court official with only 1,000 people.

At that time, people said that there were two times when the carp jumped over the dragon gate, one time was to be admitted to the Jinshi, and the other time was to be promoted to a court official.

How many people are gray-haired and can only be a staff officer in the sea of election, and how many people have become Beijing officials with easy qualifications, but they look at the court officials and sigh.

But Gu Yanzhang is different.

He was the first and first, and he was born, that is, he was a Beijing official from the eighth grade, and he was an official for only one year, and he had already relied on the work of white wax to cross the level where officials had the most headache and became a court official.

However, in addition to his white ash work, he also has the culverts of Ganzhou City and the homeless campers outside the city.

These two great achievements are enough to send several candidates to become Beijing officials, or several Beijing officials to become court officials.

But Gu Yanzhang is only about to turn twenty.

His credit is too great, but his age is too young.

Ji Qingling never doubted the fifth brother's ability, it was precisely because of her trust in the other party's talent that she was more worried.

According to the current situation, no matter where he puts the fifth brother, he can make achievements that people can't ignore, and then become a few more officials, and accumulate credits, even if he is the prime minister before the age of thirty, it is not impossible to be admitted to the hospital.

A thirty-year-old Zaisuke.

It's scary to think about.

At this time, this sign is not obvious, the fifth brother is just a new official with outstanding talents, far beyond others. But if you don't take the initiative to press it yourself, after two or three years, and make a few great achievements, smart people will understand.

As the Son of Heaven, he ponders different theories every day, weighs the court, and naturally sees it more clearly.

Today's saint has always been in poor health, and he is not young, and the people next to him don't know that Ji Qingling came from the next generation, but he knew that the other party would get sicker in the next two years at most, and he didn't have a few years to live.

A sick son of heaven will certainly plan a candidate for his son's assistance as early as possible, but he certainly does not want this candidate to become an existence that overrides the imperial power.

Now among the two governments, the youngest is also around fifty, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will be able to assist for more than ten years at most, and he will be the master, even if he is in power, he can't escape the years.

This kind of age is just right, which can not only help the little emperor get familiar with political affairs, but also not become a constraint when he can take charge on his own.

But when the new emperor ascends the throne, how old will the fifth brother be?

Twenty-three? Twenty-two?

When the emperor was in power, how old was the fifth brother?

More than thirty? Or forty?

The emperors of the Great Jin Dynasty have always lived a short lifespan, and they can live to be forty or fifty years old, which is already thankful.

This is almost a lifetime of being pressed by the fifth brother.

What will the Son of Heaven think, and what will Empress Dowager Zhang, who will hang the curtain in the future, think?

If Ji Qingling is put in their position, the fifth brother will definitely be put up, and he will not be given any chance to make meritorious contributions, and wait until twenty or thirty years have passed, and the new emperor will grow older, and then release him as an assistant.

But Ji Qingling is not in their place.

Different positions will lead to different attitudes.

Who wants to be rounded and flattened by heaven?

Compared with the books that the Son of Heaven has been repairing in the Zhaowen Pavilion and Jixian Courtyard for one or two decades, it is naturally more comfortable and interesting to be an official.

After listening to Ji Qingling's question, Gu Yanzhang only thought that the other party was worried at the beginning.

Where is this?

He smiled, lowered his head and kissed the little guy's face, and said, "Is it too early to talk about this now?" ”

Gu Yanzhang didn't take it seriously, and Ji Qingling didn't feel strange.

A new official who has only been in office for more than a year actually has to consider taking good care of his merits, not because he is afraid of being attacked by others, but because he is preventing the suppression of the heavenly family.

She pondered and elaborated on her inner thoughts.

Gu Yanzhang listened, and his face gradually became solemn.

"If the Son of Heaven is in the prime of life and is physically strong, he will naturally not worry about these considerations." Ji Qingling whispered, "But looking at his actions, he is suspicious and likes to stir around, and he has to toss something out of it if he has nothing to do - isn't he the one who made the dispute between Yang Pingzhang and Fan Dashen now?" ”

In front of the fifth brother, even if it is such a rebellious word, she is not afraid to say it, thought for a while, and added: "I don't want the fifth brother to nest in that book pavilion every day to repair history and compile books, although it is also a very clear errand, and in the future, it can generally leave a name in history, but everyone has their own ambitions, even if this is something that others can't ask for, for you, it is really wronged." ”

She seriously helped Gu Yanzhang to calculate, her two willow eyebrows were frowned tightly, her mouth was pursed, and her eyes were full of worry, seeing that Gu Yanzhang seemed to be soaked in honey water, and it was as if her whole heart was soaked in bitter water.

The little woman next to her, at most, worries about family affairs, serves her in-laws, and follows her own family, not only to worry about household affairs, but also to help consider her future career.

Although Qingling himself is smart, he always looks at things and treats problems in the long term than ordinary people, and he is willing to do this, and he does not feel wronged, but he is still a little distressed.

There is nothing else to do, so I can only do my best to hold her in my hand and feel distressed.

Although he has always done so.

Gu Yanzhang hugged Ji Qingling, kissed her face next to her, kissed her ear, and said softly: "I know, I will do it myself." ”
