Chapter 263: Employing People

The candidates entered in an orderly manner, and as the gate closed, only the family members who sent the test outside the examination hall did not leave for a long time.

And Gao Cheng had already quietly left the teahouse, and he had more than one major event on his hands.

Even the review of the handling of government affairs of those who stayed in Beijing during the southern tour is enough to make people anxious.

After leaving Luoyang for two and a half months, he entrusted all government affairs, and after he came back, he couldn't ignore it, and in the end, Gao Cheng and a group of staff members still had to test whether there were any mistakes and omissions.

However, Gao Cheng hurried back to Zhongshu Province in a hurry, not for this matter, but about the merger of Henan into eleven states.

The prefectures around Luoyang have basically replied to the letter, expressing their support for the central government's readjustment of local administrative divisions.

After all, in the history of the assassination of various states, not to mention the gainers such as Hou Jing and others, the frustrated people were also resettled, the civil officials went to Luoyang to serve as court officials, and the military attache was transferred to the general stationed in Beijing, and everyone had a bright future.

The interests of those who suffered were the governors of the merged states, such as Bo and Sima, but because of the large number of vacancies in the imperial examinations, there was also a place for them.

It's just not necessarily as good as it could be.

Gao Cheng yesterday ordered Wang Hui, one of the scholars in the middle school, to write on his behalf, and to clear the Son of Heaven, please streamline the number of states set up in Henan.

Although Gao Cheng is also the chief official of the three provinces and is in charge of drafting, reviewing, and implementing, it is really related to the country's plan, and it must be discussed.

Even if it doesn't make sense, the posture that should be there is still enough.

Soshu was immediately sent to Yuan Shanjian's imperial case, and today is not only the day of the Beijing test, but also the time to open the court.

Since Empress Gao's abortion, Gao Cheng deeply felt Yuan Shanjian's jealousy of him, and he never entered the palace again.

Mingguang Palace's court discussion was mostly at the mercy of Gao Longzhi, and when Gao Cheng returned to Zhongshu Province, the court discussion also had a result:

The Son of Heaven issued an edict to change all parts of Henan into eleven states.

Gao Cheng originally planned to be twelve states, but Gao Huan unified Sanjing, so there were only eleven states left.

The result of the court meeting is not surprising, the Kanto prefectures are now all members of the Gao family, and they have readjusted the distribution of rights internally, who will jump out to oppose this kind of thing and be a target.

After getting the will of Yuan Shanjian, Gao Cheng found a Chinese scholar to draft, and after reviewing it himself, he stamped the three official seals of the Zhongshu Supervisor, the Servant Zhong, and the Shangshu Order.

Originally, it was necessary to go through the process in the three provinces, but now it is all processed in the Zhongshu Province and immediately promulgated throughout the country, which is called efficiency.

It's just that this efficiency seems to be too powerful.

The candidates worked hard to write in the examination hall, the topic was not expected, it was Gao Cheng who asked for reform, everyone expressed their opinions on this, some people were concise and concise, summarized the essence, and some people sprinkled with enthusiasm to write eloquently, but they all came out with a bell before dusk.

"...... Child"

Cui Niang looked at her nephew Cui Zhen, called out and was about to ask him how he did in the exam, but she kept her mouth shut.

My nephew has been unable to sleep and eat during this time, and he has done his best, and now that he has finally finished this exam, why bother him with asking questions.

But Cui Zhen smiled at Cui Niang:

"Auntie, let's get ready to welcome Grandpa home."

The next moment, Cui Niang smiled like a flower.

Cui Zhen is not the only one who is confident, whether it is Wang Xi or Zu Ting, they are all confident about their own strategies.

Correspondingly, Song Qindao, a candidate in the criminal prison department, was uneasy.

It's not that he failed the exam, but that Song Qindao knows what Gao Cheng, his cousin-in-law, expects of him.

can be discussed together, it is true that there is something to say, and it is practical, but the literary style is also a plus, which is his weakness.

If you really want to be brilliant, it will not be a grammar official, no matter how big the Song family is, no matter how big it is before, my grandfather Song Ben is also the sixth minister of the auxiliary government of Emperor Xiaowen's posthumous edict, and the secretary is still in charge of personnel.

And Gao Cheng's reluctance to mention which aspect of advice should be made also made Song Qindao unconfident that he could stand out in the criminal department.

On the same day, Song Qindao and his brother Song Youdao visited Gao Cheng together, and now Song Youdao officials worship Shangshu Zuocheng, impeachment and discipline, wantonly search for corruption, and people give the nickname Song Yan Wang.

If Gao Cheng can stop children crying at night in Xuzhou, then Song Youdao can make the offending officials cry.

Compared with the scenery of Song Youdao, Song Qindao can only bury his head in the case and prepare for the Laoshzi imperial examination.

With such a comparison, Song Qindao would have some thoughts in his heart, he didn't dare to complain about Gao Cheng, but he was much more estranged from Song Youdao.

In fact, Gao Cheng's arrangement of Song Qindao hopes that he can become a model for the four subjects in addition to the classic department, as long as his strategy is not too stretched, how can he be ranked in the top ten of the criminal department and be reused.

has nothing to do with the descendants of Song Qindao, Song Jing in the famous Tang Dynasty Yao Chong Song Jing is the fifth grandson of Song Qindao, but after more than a hundred years, who knows if that person will exist.

Not only Song Jing, but also the grandson of Gao Cheng's old rival Feng Long, and he was not sure whether the fourth family slave Feng Deyi could be born.

After all, the tenth and eleventh brothers who were supposed to be born last year are gone, let alone Feng Deyi, who was born twenty-nine years later.

Gao Cheng values Song Qindao, in addition to his own talent, being Song Niang's cousin is the main reason.

Whether it is a wise monarch or a mediocre lord, the identity of one's own person is particularly important, and no one is exempt from vulgarity.

No matter how much emphasis is placed on meritocracy, the promotion of closeness will never be left behind.

Gao Cheng certainly loves talented and virtuous, but he loves talented and virtuous people close to him even more.

The outside of the examination hall was deserted, and a thousand Gao Cheng guards were displayed outside the door.

When his cronies, Governor Xingqing, were still hesitating to enter the door to collect the exam papers, a group of invigilators walked out surrounded by state and county soldiers who maintained discipline in the examination room.

These invigilators, Wei Xingqing is also familiar with, they are all middle and low-level staff members of Gao Cheng's General's Mansion, Wei Xingqing doesn't understand why Gao Cheng didn't arrange the person in charge among these people.

But this is not something he needs to worry about, after greeting everyone, Wei Xingqing asked the guards to take the exam papers from the state and county soldiers and escort them to Zhongshu Province.

The state and county soldiers who took care of the examination room were all transferred by Sizhou Muke Zhu Hunyuan to help, and now that the task is completed, they have had dinner in the temporary camp outside the city, and they are scattered in a hurry and go back to their respective homes.

Although Xiao Gao Wang does not give extra wages, he still has to take care of the two meals in the morning and evening.

There won't really be anyone who will let the soldiers serve, and they won't care about the food, no.

Gao Cheng looked at the answer sheet sent in by Wei Xingqing with a small cart, and said in his heart:

Good guys, the bus is on the book.

In the eighty states of Kanto, there are nearly 4,000 vague answer sheets, and it is definitely not for Gao Cheng to review it alone.

Gao Cheng divided the marking of the paper into four steps, and Cui Xian, Cui Jishu, Wang Shiliang, Cui Ang and other court officials who had served as the head of the Gao Cheng shogunate, such as Shi, Zhubo, and Sima, selected 100 from each of the 4,000 answer sheets, a total of 500 copies.

Then the current core staff of the General's Mansion, Zhang Shiqi and Feng Zihua, led the staff to find out from the deposed test papers whether there were any pearls left in the sea.

In the end, Gao Longzhi, Sima Ziru, and Sun Teng selected 300 copies from them as the admission test papers, and their names were not allowed to be revealed throughout the process.

And these 300 answer sheets were finally ranked by Gao Cheng according to his personal wishes.

Now I am in the queue to sell well, I need to save the manuscript, I will write a chapter in the evening, and the next three days will temporarily maintain the update volume of 6,000 words.

There are already four red envelopes owed to everyone, and only the last one is missing.

Thank you for the book friends who are in control of the reward.
