Chapter 398: Shocking the World

Only a few hours later, on the sides of the city gates in Luoyang City, there were also newly established wooden fences for the imperial court report, and there was a joint decree issued by the Empress Dowager He and the Young Emperor!

“…… Today, Li Yuan, a general of the chariot and cavalry, proposed to open a ??? for the world."

"Imperial examinations?! What's that???"

"There is no martial arts, and there are elders who have a skill to participate in ?!!"

"Liberal arts, martial arts, and hundred crafts...... There are only these three categories!"

"Luoyang's initial test is ten days later?!"

"I'm going to inform my brother!!" ……

When the sergeant with a special explanation shouted out the content of the will, a huge number of people were immediately surrounded by various gates and wooden fences, and countless people stared at it, and from time to time pulled the literate people to ask.

Want to get ahead? This is obviously the dream of countless people!

In Luoyang City, there are countless people who came with dreams, but they have no way out and struggle in the lower and middle levels, and now after hearing the "imperial examination" mentioned in the will, it immediately set off an uproar in those crowds, and countless people were excited to discuss the "imperial examination", and began to go crazy for this rare opportunity.

Just half an hour later, in a guild hall in Luoyang, a middle-aged man wearing a long sword looked at the copy of the will in his hand and laughed wildly.

“…… That's great! The time has come for the imperial examination, the more my king will show his talents!"

Looking at the new white paper that appeared in Luoyang City in his hand for less than a year, Wang Yue, who had finished laughing, reached out and stroked the stack of white paper in front of him, and looked at the words written on it, with a trace of excitement and expectation in his eyes.

"Master, this imperial examination just means that you can serve as a first-level official at the level of the tun chief and county lord?"

Seeing that Wang Yue was so excited, a young man who looked young and had an extraordinary momentum opened his mouth a little puzzled, and asked his master carefully.

This young man knew his master's ambition for an official position and being an official. And he came to Luoyang when Emperor Ling of Han was still alive, but even after stuffing a lot of money with Shichang, the general He Jin, and the family, he was not recognized and recommended by the general He Jin and the family. Shichang was able to buy an official position with gold, but unfortunately Wang Yue inquired clearly that it was only an empty title, and he was not satisfied with spending a lot of money to obtain that empty title, and finally became the leader of the rangers in Luoyang City.

But. This young man didn't understand that the current "imperial examination" had certainly broken his previous understanding, but in the face of the "imperial examination" that was no higher than the official position of the tun chief, the county lord Bo, and the 600 stones, was his master really so happy? Don't you attach too much importance to this so-called imperial examination!

"Shia, you haven't read it carefully!"

Seeing that his most proud apprentice was a little dazed and a little disapproving, Wang Yue shook his head and patiently explained to his apprentice: "In this matter of the imperial examination, the official positions given to the personnel in the selection are limited to the official positions of tun chief, county lord Bo, and six hundred stones, but among them, the outstanding performers and even the final winner will not be cultivated and reused by the imperial court in the future?"

Heard the words of his master Wang Yue. Shi A's expression was also stunned, and then after thinking about it, he became cautious.

Indeed, in the will of this imperial examination, although the official positions given are not too high, but if the outstanding performance or the winner is not limited, it will definitely not be limited to the positions of the chief of Natun, the county lord, and the official position of 600 stones, and it may not even be able to become an important minister in the court. What this means is not trivial!

Besides, even if it is the tun chief, the county lord Bo and the official position of maybe 600 stones. For the vast majority of people, it is already an unattainable high position, representing becoming an official and a member of the imperial court.

"That's right! Shi'a, I am just going to show my skills in the imperial examination, so that the court can see my Wang Yue's ability!"

Seeing Shi A's suddenly realized expression, Wang Yue made a final summary with excitement on his face.

Later. After telling his disciple Shi A a few words and asking him to pay close attention to the situation of the "imperial examination", Wang Yue, who waved his hand and asked his disciple Shi A to respectfully retire, looked at the sentence on the white paper in his hand, and his face was full of joy: "Imperial examination...... General Che Cavalry...... Here comes our chance......"

When Wang Yue and other people in Luoyang City who had never met their own talents were fanatical about the imperial examination. A convoy of at least 1,000 cavalry began to gallop towards Sili and the surrounding states, and the tide brought by the imperial examination directly spread to the whole world......

……

Ten days later, the major cities in Youzhou posted the relevant will of the "imperial examination", and the news that the preliminary examination in Youzhou will be held in various counties and state cities in half a month later.

"Imperial Examination?!"

"Our scribes have a place to use!"

"Liu Tingshi actually agreed to ............

Seeing the decree on the proclamation, the small number of scribes in Youzhou rejoiced.

Well, because of its proximity to Wuheng, Xianbei and Sanhan on the peninsula, Youzhou, like several other border states, is really very obvious in advocating martial arts. And the style of writing...... In other words, in the face of the invasion of nomads from time to time, the literary style of Youzhou is really not good, and it is also the Han Dynasty that advocates martial arts, and there are very few scribes in Youzhou.

With Li Yuan, a big butterfly, who came forward more than a year ago, horse bandits and thieves from all over Youzhou are almost extinct, and the rangers and good families who are eager to fight for a family have been thrown into the army, after fighting the two major tribes of Wuheng and Xianbei, it can be said that there are not many idle young people in the entire Youzhou, even those displaced people who have been absorbed from other states have their own things, after the imperial examination was released in Youzhou, the most excited were the few scribes?

Well, for the talent who can obtain absolute loyalty by injecting a nanobot with a needle, and knows how to write, arithmetic and can fight in battle, Li Yuan doesn't care about the scribes in Youzhou, and now the appearance of the imperial examination can be regarded as opening a door for a small number of scribes from poor backgrounds.

However, for the vast majority of the people in Youzhou, the way of the imperial examination is not as good as the news that Gongsun Zan took part of the army in the hands of Bai Ma Yi and transferred to the state to assassinate the history!

At the same time, Jizhou, which had just been taken over by Li Xingke, caused an uproar with the news of the imperial examination.

"Regardless of family background and possessions? Just about his talents?!"

"Once you pass the first test, you can go to Luoyang for free to take the final test!"

"Even slaves, bandits, and yellow turban thieves can participate? Once you pass the initial exam, even if it is a great crime of rebellion for the Yellow Turban thief. You can also wait for the results of the final test in Luoyang, and then you can go to the grassland to be pardoned with military merits?!"

"Incredible!" ……

Seeing the above situation of the announced will, the scholars and rangers of Jizhou almost didn't believe their eyes.

The news of this kind of imperial examination, even if it began in the Tang Dynasty hundreds of years later, made countless people excited, and now the Eastern Han Dynasty, a world where the family almost monopolizes it. The sensation can be imagined!

Especially for Jizhou, a prosperous state in the Han Dynasty, there are not too many scholars and rangers who think that they have no talent or suffer from no chance to get ahead, and after seeing the spread of the will of the imperial examination, almost no one is willing to miss this opportunity.

Even, those craftsmen who were not very valued at the time heard the decree that there was also a special department for craftsmen. I'm all excited about it.

Without waiting for Li Xingke, who received the order, to push too much, those poor scholars, rangers, and craftsmen in Jizhou went crazy for it, and even after seeing the information that the imperial examination decree was open to bandits, prisoners, and the Yellow Turban Army, a large number of slaves, bandits, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban were all concerned about the imperial examination.

Especially as Qingzhou, which is next to Jizhou, the leaders of the tens of thousands of remnants of the Yellow Turban, after looking at the full transcription of the imperial examination will placed in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little moved!

[Imperial examination? Do you want to give it a try......]

Donglai County, Qingzhou. A young man dressed as an official looked at the will by the city gate, and his heart was a little entangled.

For Tai Shi Ci. He is now considered an official, but he is no worse than anyone else, and he is also a little at a loss about such things as the imperial examination, and he doesn't know whether to participate in this imperial examination.

"You say, should we go to this imperial examination or not?"

Qingzhou is located in a cottage in the middle of a mountain range. When a tall military general with a yellow scarf on his head carried the imperial examination decree written in front of him on multiple animal skins, he asked more than a dozen generals of the Yellow Turban Army below.

"Brother Guan Hai, I think you can try it!"

"No! What if it's a trap?"

"However, this is the will issued by the imperial court? And if you don't try it. There are still so many young and old people in the mountain, we can't be thieves for the rest of our lives, right?!" ……

Hearing the words of Guan Hai, the boss of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, who were all at the level of internal qi separation from the body, were arguing endlessly.

For these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, the stipulation in the imperial examination that no matter slaves, criminals or even Yellow Turban traitors, as long as they choose to participate in the county examinations and pass the preliminary examination, they can be temporarily exempted from their crimes and participate in the final examination in Luoyang.

However, there are also many people who are worried that the imperial court will not be able to speak, or that this is a trap, so Guan Hai and other leaders of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army are still a little hesitant.

"Haha! Imperial examination?! I can also participate in ?!!"

In Chenliu County, Yanzhou, a strong man who looked extremely vicious looked at the posted will at the gate of a county town, and after pulling a person who specially shouted the will to ask for clarification, he looked up to the sky and laughed.

On the edge of the city gate of the county seat, next to the will that had just been posted, there were more than a dozen wooden stickers of wanted criminals or various wills issued, and one of them depicted a wanted criminal's wooden stickers, and the wanted criminal was impressively similar to this strong man.

"Imperial Examination?!"

In Qiao County, Qiaoguo, Yuzhou, a sturdy young man looked at the imperial examination announcement that had just been posted at the gate of the county seat, and his face was also a little hesitant.

Around this sturdy young man, more than a dozen peers who saw him carrying a knife and a bow were also puzzled, but behind this young man, who was even younger than many of them, they still did not speak but exchanged eye contact......

The same situation not only happened in Sili, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou and other places, even Xuzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other places, but also began to boil with the transmission of the will of the imperial examination.

……

In just over a month, the imperial examination decree was issued to all the states of the world, and then it quickly caused a sensation.

Whether it is Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou in the north, or Sili and Jizhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yizhou, which belong to the prosperous areas of the world, or even Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Jiaozhou and other places that still belong to the barren land in the south at this time, the imperial court's order to open the imperial examination directly caused a hurricane.

Especially in the will, even the slaves bought by the family, the criminals who committed the Han law, and the yellow scarves who rebelled could participate in the imperial examination, and other poor scholars, military generals from poor or humble backgrounds, and craftsmen who mastered a skill did not say much, and everyone who thought they were qualified was crazy about it.

I have to say that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although the family gate valve was not as strong as the Jin and Sui periods, almost all the channels that could climb up in the whole world were in the hands of the family gate valve.

It can be said that in addition to the character and luck of the army, to see if there will be a 1 in 10,000 probability of becoming a general, the other promotion channels are in the grasp of the family. And unless you are born well in your mother's womb, if you want to become an official before the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty (before the Yellow Turban Uprising), the difficulty is definitely not inferior to the probability of winning the main world lottery, and climbing towards it without a backstage is a very likely thing to waste for a lifetime.

Now the emergence of the imperial examination has suddenly ignited the flame of hope in the hearts of countless conceited and talented people who have never met or have the ability, and then quickly invested in the preliminary examination in various counties, and those who passed (such as the earliest Luoyang City and Si Li) set their sights directly on the final examination, and were eager to try to get ahead in it.

Of course, the world's families and powerful people are obviously not enthusiastic about such things as the imperial examination, if it weren't for the name of the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, it is estimated that there would have been someone carrying the banner to oppose it!

Similarly, in the world of "Dynasty Warriors", there are also high-level indigenous people who are puzzled by this issue, and have their own questions about Li Yuan, the main messenger who proposed the imperial examination...... (To be continued.) )
