"You are all candidates who are ranked after 1,000, and it is normal to be unhappy because you have not been on the list.

But in life, nine times out of ten, things are not as expected, and the mood is affected by grades, which is contrary to the essence of reading.

If you lose your sharpness because of this, you don't need to participate in the scientific expedition next time. ”

Speaking of this, Li Xingchen paused.

"I want to tell you a truth, repeated defeats, repeated defeats, only in this way can you hone your will, hone your state of mind, and you can stand on a higher top one day."

A group of candidates looked at him in unison, listened to the emperor's teachings, and were immediately full of confidence in the future.

That's right, isn't it just a thousand people away! Isn't it just a failure! It's better than the bottom one! It's better than indiscriminately!

Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, failure is the mother of success, and setbacks again and again are just for tempering.

What's more, the ancients had clouds, and the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds and work their bones...

Thinking like this, most people seem to be full of strength and full of energy.

But there are also those who are depressed, such as Chen Dongsheng, a test boy from a poor mountainous area.

This time they came, thanks to the subsidy of the imperial court, what if the imperial court didn't entangle it that time?

Even if the subsidy is returned, the current situation that the family can't open the pot, they can't work tirelessly, and they should work for a living.

Chen Dongsheng's ranking is exactly one thousand and one, and his name falls to Sun Shan.

A total of 1,000 people will be selected in the middle of the promotion, and the imperial court will distribute official positions according to their ranks.

As for those who fail to make the list, it is common sense that they are not eligible for positions, and they can only come to the scientific examination next time.

But the imperial court was short of talents, so Li Xingchen wanted to use them all.

As for those in high school, more than 900 of them are from major families, and the remaining less than 100 people want to get the position of high-ranking officials, which is very difficult. and they will be ostracized.

Regarding this problem, Li Xingchen is also very big, but after thinking about it, he feels that this is not an experience?

"I entertain you, in fact, I have an errand for you."

Seeing that the state of these failed examinees was almost recovered, Li Xingchen spoke again.

Errand?

Kaozi's eyes lit up suddenly.

Does Sun Shan still have errand arrangements?

Isn't it just to get ahead? If they can get an errand if they fail to make the list, then they can also be regarded as returning home.

"You should have all heard of post houses, and there is a shortage of talents in post houses all over the world.

Although the official position in the post house is not in the imperial court, it is also considered an official errand.

Even if you fall off the list, the court still feels that you are rare talents, and if you want to seek a position in the post house, the court is willing to give you a job.

In this way, you can also work and earn money while waiting for the next scientific expedition. ”

These words have made many people's hearts mention their throats.

Especially the poor test students, this is a fat gap for them.

Although in the eyes of the imperial court, no official errand without establishment cannot be called a formal official errand, but for the unsuccessful candidates, it is an official.

As long as you can have some relationship with the imperial court, it is a rare and good place, and it is a place that countless people want to go.

If you want to seek a high position in the future, working in a post house is also a kind of resume, which is a plus. During this period, he continued to study hard in the cold window, and he once went to high school. Add a plus and it will skyrocket.

"Well, can the grass people ask a question?"

At this moment, one of the candidates stood up, his face flushed with excitement.

Li Xingchen looked over and saw that the man's clothes were in tatters, and he must have come from a poor family.

Everyone's eyes were on this examiner.

"Your Majesty, if you join the post house, how will the official position be determined?"

He never thought that he would ask questions to the Son of Heaven one day, so his voice trembled, excited and scared.

"Naturally, it is based on your achievements as a reference, for example, if there are 1,000 people present who have signed up for the Beijing Post House, then the imperial court will select you from high to low according to the number of people lacking in the local post house.

Of course, the post house is only one of the places where the imperial court provides students to work, and there are also auxiliary positions for officials in remote areas such as borders, townships, and counties.

At that time, I will make a detailed list for your reference, and you will fill up any position you want, and you will be selected according to your results. ”

Rumble!

With these words, the eardrums of thousands of Kaozi were buzzing.

In addition to the post house, can you also go to a small place to be an official assistant? Is there such a good thing?

At this time, another examiner stood up.

"Your Majesty, the grass people also have a question to ask. Regarding the remuneration, will it be the same as other post house staff, or will it be treated differently on the grounds of providing candidates with jobs? For example, the salary is only half of theirs. ”

This question is also what most candidates want to ask, after all, these positions are equivalent to the court looking at them pitiful and rewarding them, and they can't guarantee that the court will not oppress and deduct all kinds of things based on this.

Li Xingchen smiled, "Don't worry, you will all be the pillars of the Great Wei in the future, not only will not reduce your salary, but will increase it by half on the basis of the original post station positions, as a subsidy for you to continue to work tirelessly." ”

This promise is no less than a reassuring pill, so that all the examinees can settle down.

Not only did they not reduce the money but also add the money, and the examinees were grateful to Dade in their hearts, "Your Majesty Mingjun, long live Your Majesty!" ”

"By the way, ugly words are also to be said in front. But if you are hired, please follow the rules.

If you rely on yourself as a scholar and neglect your duties on the grounds of studying, I will deal with it in strict accordance with the law.

In addition, the offender is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination for life. ”

The candidates nodded their heads.

The previously depressed atmosphere disappeared from this moment, and everyone was smiling on their faces, thinking about whether it would be better to go to the post house or to be an official in a remote place to assist.

But without exception, they all felt grateful to Li Xingchen.

Similarly, there are more than 1,000 of these people who are unwilling to sign up, Li Xingchen did not force it, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't force them to serve the court just because they are emperors.

Moreover, the remaining nearly 8,000 people are enough to fill the post stations of the entire Great Wei, and even some of them are more courageous, and immediately expressed their willingness to go to the border to serve as county officials.

Li Xingchen secretly wrote down the names of those people, it is a good thing to have courage, he should pay more attention to this kind of people, and mention them more in the future.

Since the emperor was here, he couldn't let go of these exams to eat and drink, so Li Xingchen left ahead of schedule with people.

After that, the atmosphere of the whole banquet became extremely warm, and every glass of wine was shouted Long live Your Majesty.

When he returned to the imperial study, the prime minister was already waiting here.

"Did Your Majesty tell them?"

"Yes, in two days, they will collect all the positions they want to apply for for statistics, and find the results for arrangement.

But the original post house is almost all related households, I'm afraid there will be trouble, pay attention. Li Xingchen commanded.
