Chapter 214: The Heart of the People

After a deep sigh, Yan Wangqiu said: "I remember that there are more than 6,000 people in the country who are famous and famous, right?" ”

The minister below immediately said: "There are ten prefectures and one hundred counties in the country, and there are five thousand six hundred and thirty-one talents, and eight hundred and twenty-three people. ”

"Well, eight hundred and twenty-three lifters, that's a bit much." Yan Wangqiu frowned slightly.

The entire South China Sea State, counting all the official vacancies after the founding of the People's Republic of China, will only have 2,000 people.

And the position of these two thousand people, his cronies and fathers of the South China Sea faction, occupy more than seventy percent.

And the remaining 20 percent of more than 500 people will share the profits to Nanhai County, some famous and powerful squires.

So in the end, it can be used to arrange those positions that lift people, and there are no more than 300 of them.

Obviously.

Just such a small position is simply not enough for the existing people.

Not to mention, there are as many as 5,000 people below the people.

But people have been in the cold for ten years, and they are studying for exams, just to be an official. Now that you don't have an official to do for others, can these talents be willing?

At the moment, perhaps people are afraid of Yan Wangqiu's innate grandmaster's strength, even if they are dissatisfied and resentful in their hearts, they don't dare to stand up and raise the flag on the surface.

But don't forget.

Yan Wangqiu didn't have a few years to live.

The reason why this old master stepped into the court from the rivers and lakes was because there was no successor to his own sect, so he wanted to find a way back for the sect from the official court.

Now there is a back road, but whether this road can sit firmly and go long depends on your own ability.

However, from the current point of view, the Nanhai faction obviously does not have the ability to effectively integrate domestic forces and pass on this new country in a stable manner.

Let's not talk about anything else, let's just say that these more than 6,000 scholars have become a great hidden danger in the South China Sea at this time.

Those who can study, who can be admitted to show their talents, who have no money at home, no momentum.

Put it in the place, it can be regarded as a faceless character.

Now that you have cut off the future of others, you have such a deep hatred, in the future, these people have a chance, can they not retaliate back?

Therefore, for the South China Sea country, how to appease these scholars has become an imminent problem.

But for those who read, the best way to appease them is naturally for the official.

But the key point is that the South China Sea no longer has an official position.

It is precisely because there is no official position to appease that the current sergeant of the country is so opposed to him, a small court in the South China Sea.

Yan Wangqiu was still having a headache before, how to deal with this matter.

But at this time, when I was busy with trivial matters, I looked back at Changsha Guo's request, and my eyes suddenly changed.

Yes.

I don't have an official position in my country, but Changsha next door has a state.

Yan Wangqiu, who has been there for a year, can be said to know it well.

has been Huo Huo by those Miao people for four years, and now in the entire Changsha country, not to mention the scholars, there are not many people left.

Now that they have just opened the country, Lu Yuan is from a scattered background, and if he finds a cronie, he can only turn to the people of the world for help.

Isn't that a coincidence?

There are officials over there that no one does, and there are not enough officials with many people here.

The two sides complement each other and work together perfectly.

In an instant, Changsha Guo found someone to be an official, and he also eliminated hidden dangers and appeased those scholars.

Yan Wangqiu thought about it in his heart, and then waved his hand and said: "Since the king of Changsha has sent an envoy, it is difficult to resist Lone and his alliance." In this way, you will distribute an example in the country, tell those scholars, and say that Changsha is recruiting talents, and all those with lofty ideals in the country can go to seek officials.

Didn't those scholars complain about me one by one and don't give them official jobs?

Now, I gave them a way out, they have the ability, go to Changsha by themselves.

What about the thousands of official vacancies in Changsha?

If you can't fight this time, then you can't blame others. ”

When the ministers below heard this, they immediately admired: "King Mingrui, your subordinates admire." ”

A day later.

The capital of the South China Sea.

At the gate of the palace, the entrance of the yamen, the gate of the city, and the public notice offices of each square in the city, freshly written lists were posted one by one, and the officials of the list struck a few gongs with gongs, attracting a large number of onlookers.

At this time at the gate of the royal palace.

I saw the leading palace guard, pointing to the red list, and said to the people who gathered in front: "Changsha was established at the beginning, and there were more than 1,700 officials in short supply.

All domestic talents and people with lofty ideals can go to Changsha to become officials.

The date of the Changsha national scientific expedition was initially set for the first day of November, and there are still two months to go.

In your family, if there is a talent to raise people, you can let them go to Changsha National Examiner. This time, Changsha is short of more than 1,700 officials?

With so many vacancies, as long as you work hard in the exam, it is not difficult to get an official position.

It doesn't even matter if you don't show off your talent and fame.

The South China Sea and Changsha have good relations, and the merits of the scholars of the two countries are recognized.

As long as everyone reads the book and thinks that they can take the exam, they can also go to Changsha National Imperial Examination. If you pass the examination, whether you stay in the local area, prepare for the next round of imperial examinations, or return to the South China Sea, this is also a good thing.

All of the above are the kindness of the king, the king of Changsha, and those who are interested, you can go back and tell your family, or make preparations.

This opportunity is only this once, if you miss it, and if you want to encounter it again, then there will be no chance. ”

The leading guard is a well-spoken person, and at this time, looking at the crowd that is gathering more and more, what he says is spittle, which makes people feel excited.

Many people in the crowd who read books, or those who have people in their families who read books, also had their eyes shining and excited.

A lot of people discussed it.

"Is this Changsha country's search for talent really fake? Can there really be more than 1,700 official vacancies? ”

"Of course it's true. Didn't you see that it was written on the list? ”

Someone next to him lowered his voice and said: "It's written on the list, but the content on it, who knows how much, how much is true or false, you know, our ......"

"Don't say it, don't say it, there are many people, but you don't dare to say it." Someone hurriedly interrupted.

Some well-informed merchants nearby, listening to these noisy voices, couldn't help but sneer: "A group of unknowledgeable people. Let me tell you, that Dongting County, no, Changsha Kingdom, I only went there once this year, and I sold 100 carts of rice over there.

As far as I could see on the road, the entire Changsha village was withered, the population was greatly reduced, and the people were poor.

After fighting over there for so many years, no matter how thick the foundation is, no matter how many people read, it will be finished for Huo Huo early.

Now that the Miao people have finally been pacified, and this Changsha country has been established, everything is in ruins, starting from scratch, can't there be a shortage of officials?

I'll just say one thing.

When I was selling rice, I went to Yangshan Mansion, and at that time, the prefect of Yangshan Prefecture and the superintendent of Nanshan Mansion in Dongting County, Sun Siwen Sun, also met with me personally.

In his office, I saw with my own eyes that there were only more than 30 officials in a huge government, less than one-third of the full amount. After a little inquiry, I learned that the entire Nansanfu, and even the entire Dongting County, was like this.

In the local prefectures and counties, except for the chief officials of the prefectures and counties and the Cao Division, the remaining left officials are all unappointed, and can only be held by the chief officials.

I heard that the entire Dongting South Three Prefectures were short of more than 300 officials.

Now that the king of Changsha has unified Dongting County and founded the country, not only has the territory doubled, but also has a central court, so there will be more officials in the shortage?

In my opinion, most of the more than 1,700 official vacancies are real. Even if it is less, it should be too late for me to go, and the position is occupied first.

After all, the king of Changsha's order to seek talent was issued two months ago.

Now that it's been two months, who knows if there is a shortage of officials, the imperial examination in advance, and a group of people are selected to use it first? ”

Hearing this, someone next to him couldn't help but ask: "This talent list is only now released, how do you know that it was available two months ago?" ”

When the merchant heard this, he said proudly: "Master, I naturally know. To tell you the truth, I received the news two months ago. I sent my eldest son and second son to Changsha as soon as possible.

Now the two of them have sent back the news that they have participated in the special opening of the Changsha Lord's September Enke, and they have both been selected.

According to my two sons, there were more than 500 participants in September Enko, and in the end more than 160 people were selected.

Almost three or four people, you can hit one.

Just ask, which dynasty can the imperial examination be so easy and easy?

And now in the imperial examination, after winning the imperial examination, the priority assignment is the Beijing official. Can the future of this Beijing official and the local official be the same?

Now that the new dynasty has opened, under the noses of those ministers of Changsha State, you have made some achievements, and it is not easy to promote?

However, my two sons are ambitious, and after winning the examination, they did not choose to be an official, but planned to take the imperial examination in November again, and planned to be a jinshi and fight for a better future.

You guys, you're still struggling with whether it's true or not. But I don't know that the real smart people packed up their things early and went to participate in the imperial examination.

At present, more than 160 of the 1,700 official vacancies have been occupied.

There are only more than 1,500 left.

If you go more slowly, it's less and more.

Moreover, this time, the order of Changsha State was not only issued to my Nanhai Kingdom, but also to Ninghai Kingdom.

When the talents of the three kingdoms arrive, the competition will be even more intense.

If you don't go early, even if this official falls from the sky and gives it to you, you won't be able to pick it up. ”

When the surrounding people heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked.

These people didn't expect that what was said in the list was all true.

However, there were still some people who looked at the merchant and hesitated, wondering if this was a trust invited by the government.

But at this moment, many people in the vicinity also stood up and supported this point.

"That's right. I just came back from Changsha this month, and I am indeed looking for talents everywhere, and I did hold a imperial examination in September. ”

"Yes, Changsha State's talent search order was issued two months ago. It's just that I'm only sending it out in my country now. ”

"If you don't hurry up now, you really won't be able to catch up."

"What do you say to them about this? I have let my younger brother go and called these people away, isn't this a fight with my little brother? ”

At this time, there was a middle-aged man dressed as an outsider, glaring at the people around him dissatisfied, and then looked at the crowd and said, "Don't believe what these people say, big guy, they are all nonsense." Where there is any imperial examination in Changsha country, where there is any order to seek merit, don't go. ”

It's okay if he doesn't say this, but as soon as he says it, the people around him who were still hesitating suddenly take action.

Quietly, the crowd was less than a dozen people.

After someone found out, most of the people who had gathered in front of the official list suddenly went.

Among the people who stayed, the merchant who had originally spoken, and a few people who had opened their mouths behind them, looked at each other, revealing a tacit look, and then quietly retreated and went to the next official list.

Yes.

Those in the previous crowd guessed correctly, these people who are traders are indeed Tuo.

However, it was not the entrustment requested by the South China Sea, but the entrustment requested by the Changsha country.

The purpose is to encourage the scholars of the South China Sea and Ninghai to go north to serve the Changsha State.

These trustees were arranged two months ago, and they should have been acted on long ago.

But at that time, Nanhai was busy sorting out internal affairs, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Lu Yuan's request for help, so the matter dragged on.

Until it dragged on until now.

The meticulous work and support of these arrangements have finally taken action.

And the effect?

So far, it's pretty good.

……

Nanhai City, Yongning Fang.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen."

Wei Qingsheng pushed open the door of his friend's house and ran in happily.

"Brother Wei." Chen Wenbin walked out, looked at his frizzy friend, and said helplessly: "What's the matter?" ”

Wei Qingsheng asked excitedly, "Have you heard about the Changsha Kingdom's talent search order?" ”

Chen Wenbin nodded: "I heard it." ”

Wei Qingsheng hurriedly said, "Then Brother Chen, are you going to take the exam?" That's more than a thousand official vacancies! ”

Chen Wenbin said: "Naturally, I am going to go, I am just packing my luggage, and after I am ready, I will say goodbye to Brother Wei, and then go north to take the exam." ”

Wei Qingsheng was dissatisfied: "Brother Chen went to take the exam, why didn't he call me?" ”

Chen Wenbin said helplessly: "Brother Wei, your uncle is an official in China, and he has also achieved the county order, which can be regarded as a way." Since you can develop in the country, why go thousands of miles with me? ”

Wei Qingsheng snorted coldly: "My uncle relied on his status as a jinshi, so he barely kept the official position of the county order. But even so, his position was stared at by those reckless people.

How can you spare the energy to help me move the way?

Moreover, in this South China Sea country, let us and other sages and sages not use it, but let some people who can only fight and kill to govern the country.

I waited for someone to come from a background, and at that time in Dayue, which one could not be an official?

But at this time, he asked for a small official but couldn't get it.

The national politics are so chaotic, I don't think the South China Sea country will last a few years.

On the contrary, the king of Changsha, when he heard about the government affairs in the country, entrusted the left and right ministers from the imperial examination of my generation to restore the barren Changsha country to prosperity.

Now it is a corporal of Lixian and issued an order to seek talent. For the thirst for talents, the ancient sages are nothing more than that.

At this time, I heard that the king of Changsha led his troops to the north, and broke the Zhou people in the north of the Yangtze River, and won successes.

These cultural and martial arts are all the masters of the world, and they are the masters of what we seek in the troubled times.

Compare it to.

The lord of the South China Sea, faint and decrepit, the country is full of traitors, this country will perish, what good is it to stay?

As an official here, he will bring trouble on himself. ”

After hearing these heartfelt words, Chen Wenbin couldn't help but be moved: "What Brother Wei said is what I mean. That being the case, then Brother Wei will go back and prepare, and tomorrow, you and I will go north to Changsha together to find the Lord. Be ambitious. ”

Wei Qingsheng laughed: "That's right." Brother Chen, let's pack up first, I'll go back and prepare and set off together tomorrow. ”

Smiling, Wei Qing was born in a hurry, and he was in a hurry, and he wanted to return home quickly and prepare to go.

Meanwhile.

The same scene is happening one after another in various parts of the South China Sea Country and even in various parts of Ninghai Country.

A large number of Lingnan scholars began to call for friends, gathered in groups, packed their packages, and headed towards the country of the Northern Holy Monarch that they longed for in their hearts.

Under the neglect of Yan Wangqiu and Su Xuange, or deliberately gave up, the hearts of the literati of Nanhai and Ninghai, and even the local popularity, have been like a surging tide, wrapped in this general trend of the imperial examination, surging towards the landing abyss.

……

But at the time of this general trend.

On October 20 of the seventh year of Hongdao, Lu Yuan temporarily entrusted the army to his disciple Zhou Qing in Baling County, and then left the battlefield, taking Anqiu Zhenren with him, and the two quietly returned to Yangshan Mansion.

The reason is simple.

Just two days ago, he received news from there that the altar for sacrificing to the Heavenly Pillar had finally been built after more than a year.

At this time, it should also be time to go to the sacrifice once, An Yi An An Qiu Zhenren's heart.

Then follow this moment by his side and remind himself that he wants to cultivate the Taiping Dao Book, and send it away early.

Seriously.

These days, he has been urged by this real person of Danding Dao, and Lu Yuan is already very annoyed.

Fortunately, the altar was finally repaired at this time, and it was finally possible to get rid of this trouble.

Even if it's only temporary.
