Li Qiao knelt down, and he knelt down too.

Li Qiao sat down, and he sat down on the chair next to Li Qiao.

When he recovered from various negative states such as nervousness, poor breathing, and stiff brains, he only heard that Lord Zhao was actually talking to Li Qian about the governance of the Yellow River.

……

He breathed lightly, his head down, his eyes down, trying to reduce his presence.

Actually, he shouldn't have appeared on this occasion, but fortunately, Lord Zhao didn't care.

Zhao Youzhi is in his fifties, with gray hair and a kind face.

He called Li Qiao today to ask about soil erosion and afforestation mentioned in Li Qiao's article.

As a squire of the Ministry of Works, he was too interested in this method.

He ordered Li Qiao as Xie Yuan this time, also because of this method.

Although he was born as a Jinshi, if he got this test paper back then, he would definitely not be able to answer Li Qiao's level.

When he was admitted to the Jinshi, the current Emperor Taishang's former saint had never had such an evil question.

All he had in his head was the books of the sages.

But it is precisely because he only has the sage book that after he was assigned to the Ministry of Engineering in the entrance examination, he had to learn a lot of knowledge from scratch.

Therefore, now that the Holy Lord has such an evil topic, he is extremely supportive.

I didn't suffer this when I was studying, so I always have to suffer when I become an official, it's better to suffer late than early, and the saint doesn't want to be a nerd who only talks about it.

Now that Li Qiao answered the test paper so well, he couldn't help but meet this young man who even wrote articles for him.

And interestingly, hundreds of the candidates in this year wrote about planting trees in the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River.

What the imperial court didn't expect was that among the candidates in Yuanhe Province this year, there were hundreds of people who mentioned it.

This made him can't help but ask the prefect of the capital, why is this?

Governor Zhang of the capital directly gave him the article on Li Qiao's life test, and after he read it, he was even more determined to see Li Qiao.

Li Qiao really affected hundreds of candidates, and let these candidates write such an important measure, which is terrifying.

*

The author has something to say:

In fact, it is too buggy to let Zhuang Wen, Meng Yue, and Xu Ying all win, but they are deeply influenced by Li Qiao, if I don't write that they failed the exam, it should be a bit illogical, so in the end, they all won.

Of course, it's not important, it's Li Qiao!

Everything is made up by me, treasures have fun, don't take it seriously, what~

Chapter 97: Returning to the Village Celebrating. It may be a little too slimy, so be cautious

Zhao Youzhi is really satisfied with Li Qiao, at present, Li Qiao has influenced so many candidates, and after these candidates enter the Ministry of Engineering, then he doesn't need to arrange people to teach from scratch, he can directly use these newcomers.

The Ministry of Industry is in charge of all kinds of projects, involving professional skills, and although it is the craftsmen who really do the work, the officials of the Ministry of Industry also have to know a little bit of technology, so he is extremely tired of raw melons and eggs who do not understand anything.

At present, the Shengshang questions are forcing candidates to master all basic common sense when they are studying, and Li Qiao also wrote a model essay to let candidates all over the world know which direction to work in, which is very good.

Look at Li Qiao himself, not proud, not arrogant, not flattering, looking at Wenwen quietly and delicately well-behaved, I really can't find fault ...... Well, except for exaggerating his husband's affection, I really can't find fault with it.

However, I heard from Governor Zhang that his husband had a life-saving grace for him, and worked hard with him to build today's family business, so he cared so much about his husband and took him with him wherever he went.

The saint once said, knowing gratitude, this is a person's greatest virtue, Li Qiao attaches great importance to affection, righteousness, and gratitude, although the behavior of loving the husband is somewhat exaggerated, but it is also excusable.

On the whole, Li Qiao, a descendant, is really good.

However, before he came to Yuanhe Province, the Holy Lord had not mentioned Li Qiao to him.

Although the saint affirmed Li Qiao's noodles and was willing to ensure that he was rich for life, it was nothing more than that.

Thinking like this, Zhao Youzhi couldn't help but cherish his talents.

The water in the capital is deep, and Li Qiao is just a duckweed without roots.

So, after talking about the control of the Yellow River, he asked Li Qiao when he would leave for Beijing.

"If you go back to your lordship, if there is no accident, it should be at the end of September." Li Qiao replied respectfully.

"Well, it's not too late." Zhao Youzhi stroked his beard and said, "That official will tell you about the general situation in the DPRK and China." ”

Li Qiao was stunned when she heard this, and then hurriedly got up and said, "The students are grateful. ”

Tao Zhu hurriedly got up.

Zhao Youzhi waved his hand: "This is nothing, many people know that although you are famous in front of the saint, the most important thing in the capital is the dignitaries, you must be cautious after you arrive in the capital, don't mess with the nobles and don't know it." ”

"Remember the teachings of your lords." Li Qiao's heart sank.

This is to clearly tell him that he has a weak foundation and that he has nothing but his name before the saints.

"The ministers of the DPRK and China can be roughly divided into three factions......

Zhao Youzhi began to □□ the situation in the city.

Before the establishment of Dasheng, there was a period of war that lasted for 30 years, in which the glorious gate lord clan was killed for nearly a thousand years, and was no longer able to control the government.

After the establishment of Dasheng, Emperor Taishang killed a group of families who were struggling to survive, so the family was completely finished.

Today's ministers in the court, except for the heroes and descendants who followed the emperor to fight the world, the rest are talents selected by the imperial examination.

Therefore, the ministers of the DPRK and China are either the first generation or the second generation, and the foundation is not too thick to compare with the previous great families.

However, Shengping Emperor Sheng Hongsheng had seven sons, the eldest prince was born to the first queen, and was the eldest son, but unfortunately he was weak since he was a child, and he fell off the horse and broke a leg when he was young, so although the eldest prince is the eldest son, there is no hope of ascending the throne.

The remaining princes, the three princes are from the current queen and are now serving in the ministry, and the fifth prince is from Dong Guifei, who is now serving in the household department, and the two princes have backers and some real power in their hands, so although the saint has not been on the throne for a few years, many ministers in the court have faintly stood in line.

Still, there are quite a few neutrals.

The saint was in the prime of life and the spring and autumn were at their peak, and he was too anxious to stand in line at this time.

……

When Li Qiao and Tao Zhu came out of the Gongyuan, it was already noon, and the Gongyuan was quite close to the house they rented, and the two planned to walk back.

But after walking a few steps, I saw Li Chunsheng, Li Ershan, Li Xia, and the Zhuang family, the Xu family, and Meng Yue all standing not far from the gate of the Gongyuan.

When a group of people saw him and Tao Zhu, they immediately waved hello and walked towards them.

"Let's go down to the restaurant." Li Qiao looked at the concern on everyone's faces and said with a smile.

His smile made everyone's hearts go back to their stomachs.

"Your answer to the paper is so good, Lord Zhao must be a good thing to see you." Xu Ying said.

"That's it, let's go and celebrate, the four of us have been lifted, what a great joy!" Zhuang Wen said with a smile.

"Yes, it's time to celebrate." Li Qiao beckoned everyone to go back to get the ox cart first, and then go down to the restaurant.

Today's list is released, and the new imperial examinees have gone down to the restaurant to celebrate, so the restaurants in the city are very lively, and everything that can be called is full.

But Li Qiao and his party staggered with them, and when Li Qiao's group arrived at the largest restaurant in the capital, Buyelou, there was a place.

Moreover, the shopkeeper of the nightless building recognized him and had to give him a waiver.

Li Qiao didn't miss this amount of money, so he refused, and a group of people sat in three private rooms lively, eating and drinking until the evening.

Back in the rented yard, there were quite a few people coming to the door.

Not only the landlord, but also the nearby people came to send things to celebrate.

These people know his temper, and they don't send valuables, but melons and fruit snacks.

The next day is the Luming Banquet, which is the custom of the imperial examination, and the chief examiner and the prefect Zhang have a banquet for the new imperial examination.

After the Luming feast, more people came to the door, not only the big businessmen in the capital, but also some minor officials of low rank.

These are all sophisticated people, but Li Qiao temporarily pushed these away, he and Tao Zhu took duck goods and snacks to visit Lord Zhao, and thanked Lord Zhao for his suggestions.

In addition to Lord Zhao, he also went to visit Governor Zhang's mansion, and when he saw these big officials, he began to entertain the people who came to visit.

It's been five days since this busy work.

He and Tao Zhu packed up their things and prepared to go back to Sanliu Village.

It was already the beginning of September when he returned to Sanliu Village, and after celebrating in Sanliu Village, he had to leave for Beijing immediately, and the time was too tight for him to waste time in the capital.

Those who win the lifting do not necessarily have to take the examination in February next year, it all depends on the personal willingness of the lifter.

Zhuang Wen, Meng Yue, and Xu Ying were very hesitant.

Their foundation is too shallow, especially Meng Yue, he thinks that he can be promoted in the exam this time, purely because he has accumulated virtue in his previous life.

If you go to take the exam, you will definitely fail.

However, he passed all the four exams he took with Li Qiao, and he got Li Qiao's good luck.

If he doesn't take next year's exam, then when he takes the exam himself, he will definitely not be able to get Li Qiao's good luck.

……

Headache!

Zhuang Wen and Xu Ying also think the same way, they can get Li Qiao's good luck in the exam with Li Qiao, but they are shallow in knowledge, and the examination is a national examination, and they all have mediocre results in the provincial township examination, and the national examination will be nine times out of ten to fail.

Even if it doesn't fall off the list, it's the tail of the crane.

But if the crane tails, it will be too unwilling.

Because once you pass the examination and get a fellow jinshi background, you will not be able to take the imperial examination again in this life.

Tongjinshi can also be awarded officials, but Dasheng has been established for decades, and there are more than 200 people in the top three in each palace examination, so there is no shortage of officials whether it is the central or local government.

Therefore, if you are lucky, you can mix a seven-rank official and an eight-grade official, and if you are unlucky, you can only wait for the vacancy.

Moreover, even if you can be an official, if you become an official like a county magistrate and a teacher, won't so many years of hard work be in vain?

The entanglement of Zhuang Wen, Meng Yue, and Xu Ying, Li Qian understands very well that this is related to the fate of life, and he must be cautious.

Anyway, they have already been admitted to the ruling class, especially Meng Yue and Xu Ying, both of whom are still young, even if they take the exam again in three years, it will not be too late.
