The Flower Dynasty Festival is a pilgrimage of a hundred flowers, and the nobles of Huanghuafang gather.

In front of the Lin Mansion, Xia Shouzhong announced the decree loudly, and everyone bowed and listened.

"I said, I have heard that the courtiers serve the king with merit, and the king rewards the ministers with the knight. Since ancient times, sages have ruled the country, relying on the support of talents. Zhengzhi Shangqing, Zide Doctor, Prince Young Master, and Hubu Shangshu Lin Ruhai have contributed to the country and are trusted by the people, and they are actually the pillars of the country and the backbone of the nation.

Today, I inherit the mandate of heaven, count the calendar, control all directions, and the merits of Zier are hereby rewarded to show their virtue. The edict of Lin Hai was the founder of the country, and the auxiliary transport pushed the sincerity and observance of the Wenchen Changzhou County Marquis, with 800 households in the food town, and the three generations began to descend. ”

Since ancient times, the marquis has worshiped the prime minister, pushed the favor and relatives, and the wife and shadow did not talk about it.

Once Lin Ruhai was made a marquis, of course, the emperor would not lose the rewards for his parents, wife, and son.

Posthumously awarded his father, mother, Uncle and Mrs. Changzhou, posthumously named his late wife Jia Shimin as Mrs. Hou of Changzhou County, and ordered the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry and the Suzhou Mansion to renovate his tomb, and gave Shuanghe and other mausoleums to accompany the funeral.

Yin sealed his son Lin Moyu as the undertaker, and rewarded the jade, the four treasures of the study, and the imperial four books and five classics......

A series of enshrined holy decrees not only stunned Lin Ruhai and other members of the Lin family, but also those who came to the Lin Mansion to congratulate and watch the excitement today, but they were all smashed by these holy decrees.

Everyone knows how favored the princess of the Lin family is in the palace, even if the emperor does not personally issue a reward, the mother of the harem will give a reward.

But I didn't expect this reward to be too rebellious, and his mother's Lin Ruhai was actually a marquis!

The emperor did not directly describe his merits in the holy decree, and many people who didn't know much about the affairs of the court still felt that Lin Ruhai had received such a great reward by relying on his daughter.

But the central officials all knew in their hearts that today's reward for the marquis was in fact doomed years ago, or even more than ten years ago.

If nothing else is mentioned, let's just say that what Lin Ruhai did in the past few years when he was the salt patrol of Yangzhou can be said to be more meritorious than the destruction of the country, or even higher than the destruction of the country.

The emperor still remembers his most difficult time, when the salt tax in Jiangnan was sent to the capital every year, at least two million taels of silver.

In the fifth year of Yuan You, in order to eat the big fat meat of Jiangnan Salt Class, the thief can be said to have forced Lin Ruhai to the brink of life and death.

Lin Ruhai, who was almost ruined, arrived in such a field, he did not compromise with evil, and insisted on supporting his sick body to work for the country.

With such a courtier, the emperor felt that if he was still stingy with a title, God would send thunder to smash him.

"Your Majesty is really kind to the Lin family, and several ministers in the cabinet don't have titles yet......"

Some people know the credit of Lin Ruhai's achievements, but more people can't understand the mystery of this.

After the emperor was welcomed into the Lin Mansion, some people ate lemons in the lively crowd.

This man's words seemed to be a grievance for several scholars in the cabinet, but everyone knew what he really thought.

A young scholar on the side directly replied: "Do you know why Princess Wen'an was sent to Rongguo Mansion before?" For the sake of the dynasty, Lin Gong fought to the death against the salt merchant group in the south of the Yangtze River. After ten years, his wife died, and the only remaining concubines could not take care of him, so he was sent to the capital. Later, he presided over the expansion of salt farms, which caused the price of salt to plummet...... Let's not talk about Lin Gong's merits in the household department, just rely on Lin Gong to make the people of the whole world afford to eat snow-white cheap salt, and the reward of the marquis is deserved! ”

Three Emperors and Five Emperors So far, when will the common people be able to afford to eat snow-white and non-toxic cheap salt?

A few years ago, it was a well-off home in the capital, all of which were eaten with green salt, not to mention green salt in poor homes, and vinegar cloth were all luxuries!

"People are not grateful, and animals are not as good!"

The scholar flicked his sleeves directly, not bothering to pay attention to the obviously provocative person.

He carried a picture scroll and walked towards the gate of the Lin Mansion.

"Su Bai, a student of Guozi and a student of Gusu, is here to congratulate Princess Wen'an and Lu Daxi! Yu has no permanent production, only the painting skills are worthy, and he is dedicated to painting the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and I hope I don't want to dislike it. ”

Lin Bai, who greeted the guests in front of the door, heard it, ouch, hometown people.

"It turned out to be a talented man from his hometown, Su Sheng, please come in quickly. Gold and jade are priceless, and talent is priceless. To be able to get Su Shenggui's joy to congratulate my sister, the Lin family is grateful. ”

Lin Bai has been personally cultivated by Lin Ruhai in recent years, and it is not said that he will treat people and things.

With the entry of this Guozi prisoner named Su Bai into the house, many young scholars who were still a little hesitant soon became emboldened and walked into the door of the Lin family with the calligraphy scroll they had written and painted.

Wenchen was knighted, and the last Wenchen who was knighted was Wei Wenzheng, who was known as the Duke of Zhou in Great Xia.

Lin Ruhai's knighthood made many literati see the hope of being knighted.

These scholars and students have already regarded Lin Ruhai as the leader of Shilin, and they entered the mansion today not only to congratulate the princess of the Lin family, but also to take a closer look at Hou Lin Ruhai in Changzhou County.

"Grandpa Tian, why are there so many more readers all of a sudden? My uncle's house can't sit down! ”

Jia Huan looked at the servants who were busy setting up tables and chairs everywhere in the front yard, and couldn't help but exclaim.

The table that was originally estimated to be fifty tables, with the emperor's edict, dozens or hundreds of young students poured in from outside the door in an instant, which no one would have expected.

Jia Cong already understood the reason behind it, and explained to him in a low voice: "My uncle has a very good reputation in Shilin, and now he has been knighted, these people all regard my uncle as an idol, they are here to chase stars!" ”

"Idols? Chasing stars? ”

Jia Huan had never heard of the word, but he quickly understood what it meant.

When Lin Ruhai came to thank these students, their crazy actions almost shocked Jia Huan's jaw.

The last time he saw such a fiery gaze from people's eyes was when the people looked at the northern army when they returned to the capital after the destruction of the country.

Jia Cong looked at Lin Ruhai, who was interacting cordially with the students, and explained to Jia Huan in an extremely solemn tone: "Idol is the worship and admiration of people. Such as a warrior who kills the enemy to serve the country, such as a capable minister who governs the country and the people. These students think that they should be like their uncle in the future, loyal to the country, loyal to the people, set up their hearts for heaven and earth, establish their lives for the people, continue their studies for the saints, and open peace for all generations! ”

"Brother Cong is right, your uncle is such a person, you have to be such a person!"

Jia Zheng touched his youngest son's brain, and looked at his brother-in-law with envy and admiration.

He Jia Cunzhou has to be like this, even if he can't reach his brother-in-law's achievements, he has to spend the rest of his life fighting.

……

Although Daiyu's ceremony is very grand, not only the emperor, the crown prince, and the princess come to congratulate in person, but the queen mother is the main guest, but the light of the ceremony seems to have been covered by the glory of the father's marquis.

Lin Ruhai's sudden marquis seems to have aroused the enterprising spirit of the courtiers.

Although the news of Enke had just spread, the number of scholars in the capital gradually increased, and soon reached a terrible number.

"The halls of each family are basically full, and even the Dabao'en Temple outside the city has more than a dozen scholars. Adults, do you want to go to each club to have a look, how many can you recruit? ”

The rain in early spring gradually increased, and on the second day after the Flower Dynasty Festival, Jia Cong began to return to Taifu Temple to sit on duty.

Although this Taifu Siqing is just a transition, Jia Cong is still very conscientious.

He looked through the files of the Taifu Temple in recent years, and couldn't help but have a headache for Ma Zheng of the national dynasty.

Ma Zheng of Great Xia is really ......

It's rotten to the extreme!

According to the records of Taifu Temple, the entire dynasty does not count the places of Beiting, Anbei and the Western Regions, which were not long after being annexed, and there are only less than 80,000 good horses on the books.

80,000 horses, that sounds like a lot, right?

But the war horse is a consumable, and it is impossible to directly say that it can be pulled out to fight the enemy.

Not to mention the Rakshasa of the Western Expedition, even the preparations for the big battle to pacify Wusizang this time, the Taifu Temple was enough to choke on the war horses needed.

Jia Cong directly summoned the officials of the entire Taifu Temple, and found the Dragon Guards as helpers to check the inside and outside of the Taifu Temple.

No wonder Ma Zheng is so rotten, the co-author is the official of the Taifu Temple, and they are all rotten goods.

lazy and lazy government, and also embezzled the Ma Zheng money allocated by the imperial court.

Jia Cong was angry, he didn't bother to interrogate in detail, and sent all the officials and officials in the Taifu Temple to the Criminal Department, and these dogs and things all went to explain to the people in the Criminal Department.

In less than half a month after the new secretary of the Taifu Temple, Jia Cong, took office, the Taifu Temple was swept upside down.

All of a sudden, the empty Taifu Temple almost fell into a state of stopping, Jia Cong looked at the only remaining big cats and kittens under his command, three or two, and had a headache, and asked Wang Molin, the secretary of the ministry, for help.

It's a pity that the lord of heaven and the lord of heaven did not recruit, a few days ago, the emperor and the lord of the emperor in one breath more than 30 civil and military officials, coupled with the influence of Jingcha, the current official gap in the court has reached an astonishing number of nearly 100 people.

Wang Molin was urged by Jia Cong to have a headache, and directly threw him a blank official appointment letter, do you want someone? Okay, you can recruit yourself.

As long as it is a student who graduated from Guozijian, or has a meritorious reputation, the seventh-grade and eighth-grade officials Jia Yumao will recruit them by themselves, and they will be registered with the Ministry of Officials when the time comes.

That's why Jia Cong asked the scribe about the students in the capital, but the news from the inquiry did not solve the problem of the shortage of people in Taifu Temple.

These people are all for next year's Enko, and they basically want to participate in the meeting to try to give a jinshi. If you want to recruit directly into the Taifu Temple, I'm afraid it's very difficult! ”

Anti-corruption is cool for a while, recruiting crematoriums.

Jia Cong rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, and glanced at the full of official documents on the table irritably.

"If you go to the ministry to urge again, how many people can be urged. This official is looking everywhere to see if he can recruit a few talents! ”

……

Jia Cong, who is dressed in an orange cat suit, is very eye-catching, and every time he goes to a club, he will become the focus of all students.

The big guys all want to be familiar with each other in front of the royal cat, and they are all very enthusiastic.

But when they heard that Lord Yucat was here to recruit them to be officials in Taifu Temple, they immediately embarrassed to find all kinds of strange reasons to shirk.

It's not that they don't want to be officers, but the difference between raising officers and following up non-commissioned officers is so big that there is simply a gap.

Raising people as officials is inherently inferior.

Jia Cong went to the four major halls of Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi in a row, but failed to recruit anyone.

These four are the strongest provinces in the imperial examination of the national dynasty, and none of those who can go to the capital from these four places are people who lack talent.

Jia Cong could understand the failure of these guild halls, but when he walked into Guozijian and wanted to recruit a few people from Guozijian but found nothing, he smiled bitterly and said to Jia Shiyi, who was guarding the side: "Uncle Eleven, is it true that the officials of Taifu Temple are so unpopular?" ”

"Little Third Master, my subordinates feel that it is not that the officials of Taifu Temple are not welcomed, but that these people are high-spirited, and they don't want to delay their future prospects because of temporary convenience."

Jia Shiyi's words reminded Jia Cong, whose head was swollen, yes, whenever he went to a place, the first choice was those who were talented.

Talented young people, who are not arrogant, will not care about the convenience of the moment.

He slapped his head suddenly: "I almost missed a big thing!" Uncle Eleven, let's go, let's go find Sister Lin! ”

……

On the second day after Daiyu and Xuan, she didn't rest, and she returned to the Compulsory Education Department of the Ministry of Rites to get busy.

Jia Cong's sudden arrival startled Daiyu, who was busy.

She put down the pen in her hand and asked suspiciously: "I heard that you have emptied the Taifu Temple and are fighting with Wang Shangshu, how can you have time to come to me?" ”

Jia Cong approached Daiyu and smiled: "Isn't this in trouble, I came to Sister Lin for help, and asked Sister Lin to save me from the sea of suffering!" ”

"Don't, Wang Shangshu can't help it, I only have a few people, where can I get someone to use for you."

Daiyu pointed out the window, there were less than seven officials in the Department of Compulsory Education, but they were in charge of the education work of the entire dynasty, and none of them were light.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have rested or won't rest, and as soon as the ceremony was over, she would have come to the yamen to work.

Jia Cong shook his head and said with a mysterious smile: "I didn't rob them with Sister Lin, I just need Sister Lin to give me a list of exempted students who have been sent to the capital from all over the country in the past few years." ”

Well?

A flash of inspiration flashed in Daiyu's mind, and her eyebrows and eyes crooked towards Jia Cong and smiled.

"I see, you actually want to choose materials directly from the push-exempt students. This is a good idea, most of the students are from ordinary or even poor families, although their knowledge is outstanding in the public school, but compared with the orthodox imperial examination, it is a lot worse after all. Instead of crossing a single-plank bridge, it is better to take this road. ”

The advantage of the scholarly family is really an insurmountable gap, even with the help of compulsory education, the road to a poor family is really too difficult.

Compulsory education has been implemented for three years, and hundreds of students have been recommended to the capital from all over the country, and these people have graduated from Guozijian one after another, and only a few have hope of making a name for themselves in the examination.

Although the vast majority of people are diligent, they can only be arranged by the imperial court to serve as low-level officials in the local or various ministries after graduating from the Guozijian.

Daiyu felt that instead of letting them compete with those who had studied hard for ten or even more than ten years, it was better to follow Jia Cong's path directly.

Taifu Temple is also one of the five temples, that is, starting from the lowest nine-grade supervisor and deputy one, and can boil up to six or seven Beijing officials.

This is definitely a panicked way for poor people to change their own doors!

That's all for tonight, continue tomorrow, good night!
