The next day, 300 students gathered in Xianyang Hall.

Looking at the students in front of me, I have a kind of pride that the heroes of the world have entered the world!

I raised my hand and waved, Qi Wan held the roster, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Xuezheng Ke first-class first, Handan Zhao Shanben, come forward to answer!" ”

Zhao Shanben immediately stepped forward, bent down and said respectfully: "Student Zhao Shanben is here!" ”

Seeing that he is more handsome, my favorability in my heart has increased, after all, being an official in ancient times also depends on whether you have good facial features, unless your talent is too dazzling, and Wu Dalang's figure can't stop it......

"Zhao Shanben, how many categories are there in the world, how can they control it?" There is no standard answer to this question, just how to answer it depending on how he thinks about being an official.

Zhao Shanben didn't look up, but still said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty." The people are divided into three categories, one is excellent, and can be controlled by grace, the second is inferior, and can be controlled by labor, and the third is punishment, which can be controlled by punishment. ”

I nodded slightly, and answered very well, if an official can do these three things, he is a rare good official, and this person behaves decently, although he is a little nervous, but he is quick-witted, I said: "Good." ”

When Zhao Shanben heard this, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Then return to its original position.

Qi Wan said loudly again: "Xuezheng Ke is second in the first class, Nanyang Wen Minghan, step forward and answer!" ”

I looked at Wen Minghan curiously, he was as strong as an ox and had dark skin, it was hard to imagine that such a person was called Wen Minghan, and he was also the second in the first class of Xuezheng Science, he was really unseemly......

"Wen Minghan, the Northern Qiang Clan, the Western Regions are attached to Qin, why not?" Both of these places were voluntarily surrendered, and the thinking of the ancients was different from that of later generations, and I would like to hear how they analyzed the psychology of both.

Wen Minghan's voice was thick, and he bowed his hand respectfully and said, "Return to Your Majesty." Great Qin is in the middle of the world, the barbarians of the Quartet are afraid of prestige and morality, the Western Regions have mutual market education, and the Northern Qiang clan has the education of close neighbors, so they surrendered. For example, the Xiongnu and the Northern Hu, far away from China, did not know Qin Wei, and were not indoctrinated, so they could not surrender. ”

He can see that the role of cultural invasion is very rare, although the military conquest is the fastest and most labor-saving, but in the end, it is necessary to assimilate them and make them yearn for Daqin, so that they can be completely incorporated into the territory of Daqin.

"Good."

Next was the third Su Jian of the first rank, and I continued to ask: "Su Jian, "Mozi Seven Tribulations" said that there is no eater in the country for three years, and the country is not its country, how about the Great Qin today?" ”

Su Jian looked a little nervous, bowed down and said, "Go back to Your Majesty." Three years of food is the country's grain reserves, to prevent natural and man-made disasters, wars and rebellions, now the Great Qin State is peaceful and peaceful, there is no war outside, should not be commented! ”

I smiled slightly, and said it beautifully, although it was a little flattering, but it was not entirely unreasonable, and I also responded: "Good." ”

Then I asked the others in turn, and I had a meal in the middle, and when it was getting dark, I only asked half of them, and seeing that everyone was a little unable to support it, I ordered to continue tomorrow.

The next day, it took another day to inspect all 300 people.

Until the last person finished answering, I got up and said majestically: "You have passed the palace examination, you are all my protégés, tomorrow after the list is announced, you will go to various places to serve as officials, you must be honest and honest, for the benefit of the people, if you violate the laws of Qin, I will be punished even more than other officials, so remember!" ”

Everyone was terrified, and they all bowed their hands and said in unison: "Obey Your Majesty's order!" ”

————

After the end, I called Sangong to the Temple of the Four Seas.

"Yu He, have all these people's official positions been arranged?" Three hundred people have one hundred people in each subject, although it is a lot, but the territory of Great Qin has expanded so much, there should be a place to settle.

Yu He arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is basically appropriate, the most lacking place for officials at the moment is Xinqindi, since the surrounding Helan Mountain has been included in Jiuyuan County, the area of Jiuyuan County has increased suddenly, and there are now twelve counties, of which nine counties are taken by the county Cheng to carry out county affairs, in addition, the county Cheng, the county lieutenant, etc. are not enough, the minister thinks that they can be placed in Jiuyuan County first, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

I nodded and agreed: "The new Qin land is close to Guanzhong, and it is a rich land, so it is feasible. Zhao Shanben and the three can serve as county commanders, and the rest can serve as county magistrates, county magistrates, and county lieutenants. ”

Yu He responded: "The minister obeys." The first three of the first class of one hundred schools and one branch were sent to the general as the Shaofu, and the rest of the people were mainly sent to the counties and the iron smelting government to be under the rule of the Shaofu. The two subjects of the hundred schools majored in debate and learning, and they were mainly sent to the schools in the counties, and the top three of the first class went to the Hundred Schools Palace. ”

"That's very good." After agreeing with his proposal, I reminded: "It is necessary to be careful not to make Jinke Qinshi an official in the same place, and to avoid them from serving in their place of origin. ”

Yu He immediately comprehended and arched his hand: "The minister obeys the order." ”

These people are on the same list as Qin Shi, and they don't have their own social circles, so they are likely to form a force when they get together, and they have to be guarded against. In addition, if Meng He really finds out something, it will cause unnecessary trouble for them to serve in the place of household registration, so don't let them be local official insurance points.

"Okay, you give these test papers to Shang Shuling and store them in the treasury, and go back to prepare for tomorrow's list." With a wave of his hand, several people retreated.

After Qin Shi's ranking was announced the next day, it caused quite a stir in Xianyang, and the students who were not on the list were also waiting in Xianyang to see who was in the top three.

Wen Minghan looked at the first-class first-class above, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, Wen Mou said it well, right?" Brother Zhao is very intelligent, and he is really the first in the first class! ”

Zhao Shanben also smiled and said humbly: "I borrowed my brother's auspicious words." The hour is not early, let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion as soon as possible, we will appoint officials today, don't miss the hour. ”

Wen Minghan nodded, and the two walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion together.

Although the matter of appointing officials belongs to Yu He, Li Si will be their boss in the future, so it is natural to announce their whereabouts in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After being busy for most of the day, they received a bunch of miscellaneous things such as official seals and official uniforms, and the two of them packed up their things and went to Zhongding Pavilion.

Looking at the food on the table, Wen Minghan was a little sentimental: "I think I'm so big, I've never been out of Nanyang County, but now I'm going to Hetao County, Jiuyuan County, two thousand miles away, to serve as the county commander, I don't know if Brother Zhong can take care of the family." ”

Zhao Shanben was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Wen Minghan, who had a rough appearance, to have this side, smiled indifferently, and comforted: "Brother Wen, why should you be like this, the eldest husband was born between heaven and earth, with his head raised as a cover and his head bowed as a couch, where can he not be at peace?" Moreover, Brother Wen's family has a lot of family resources, so there is no need to worry. ”

Wen Minghan laughed at himself when he heard this: "What Brother Zhao said is that Wen Mou is also mistaken. ”

Then he cleaned up his mood and raised his glass and said: "Tomorrow, you and I will go our separate ways, Brother Zhao has the ambition of a bird, and I hope that Brother Zhao will soar thousands of miles!" Come, drink this cup together! ”

Zhao Shanben raised his glass and smiled: "You and I are both protégés of the emperor, what is the pity of being rich?" Only live up to the emperor's grace! ”
