"There are more than 10,000 people, only 60 people are on the list, more than one in a hundred, it is so difficult to take the test, how difficult will it be to be admitted to the Jinshi in the future?" Liu Xiu sighed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Hehe, raise people, Jinshi, do you really dare to think?" a boy on the side shook his head.

Since I was qualified for the college examination at the age of fifteen, I have participated in a total of four college examinations in three years, and the second place fell to Sun Shan, this is the fifth time, and I don't know if I can win?" said another Xiucai.

"What are you? There is a child in my village, who started the college exam at the age of eighteen, and the exam was passed until the age of eighty, but he still didn't get into Xiucai!"

There are a lot of people in the crowd of bitter people.

After all, those who are admitted to Xiucai are a minority, and those who become superbs are a minority. It is the majority who are forced to suffer, and the losers are the majority, and most people have wasted too much time and years for the imperial examination, and nothing has been accomplished. Too many talents have been turned into waste materials by the imperial examination.

After the imperial examination, after the eight shares, there were no more talents.

Liu Xiu waited quietly.

Generally speaking, the government will write the list of those who have passed the examination on the yellow list, and then paste it on the wall of the Gongyuan, as long as those who pass the examination can see their names on it. Of course, those who spend money on hyperplasia and epiphytes are not among them, because their places have not yet come out at this time.

However, before the yellow list is posted, the officials who work in the yamen will be the first to get the news, and those who hold red paper and beat gongs and drums will come to report the good news and receive the reward. This is also an additional opportunity for poor people to earn extra money.

Liu Xiu waited slowly.

"Bang, congratulations to Lee Yoon Lee Sang-gong High School No. 21 ......"

"Bang, congratulations to Zhang Wen and Zhang Xianggong High School, the tenth place in the second grade......"

Listening to the sound of gongs and drums announcing the good news outside through the door, many readers couldn't sit still, and stood up one after another, waiting.

The ranking starts from the back and keeps moving forward.

When some of the scholars heard the name, they stepped forward one after another, received the good news, and were overjoyed, and gave them a reward. Some old people in their fifties were overjoyed and fainted happily after learning that they were on the list.

The candidates in the inn were all in a commotion, stretching their necks and looking around, expecting that the person who would show off their talents in the exam was themselves.

One after another, the rankings appeared, but unfortunately there was no name of Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu became more and more lost in his heart, and said to himself, it seems that I am not the life of a royal literati, I am born to rebel, or follow Bai Susu to rebel, it is the most affordable.

At this time, a little official was overjoyed and sang loudly: "Congratulations to Liu Xiu and Liu Xianggong for the first place in the first class of high school, is Liu Xianggong here?"

Liu Xiu was stunned for a while, and after a while, he realized that he was in high school, and he was also the first in the first class, and he was suddenly surprised: "I am." “

When the little official heard this, he hurriedly walked up to Liu Xiu and saluted: "Liu Gongzi, congratulations to Gao Denghuangbang, I will call you Liu Xianggong in the future." As he spoke, he handed over the red wedding card.

Xianggong and Maocai are both honorific titles for people with Xiucai status.

From now on, Liu Xiu can be regarded as a long march of 10,000 miles, and he has completed the first step.

"Liu Xianggong, he took the county examination in February this year, and he was the first; he participated in the government examination in April, and he was the first; and now he is the first in the hospital examination, and he has won three cases in a row, which can be called Xiao Sanyuan!" The little official said: "Congratulations to the son, he will be lifted in the township examination next year!"

Liu Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, it seemed that he didn't have to follow Bai Susu and go to rebel.

named Liu Xiu, now it is worthy of the name.

Liu Xiu accepted the wedding card with a happy face, and then handed over a piece of silver weighing five taels as a reward.

The little officer took the money happily and turned to leave.

Although the surrounding candidates had some bad feelings in their hearts, no matter how jealous they were, they were still smiling on the surface, and they came over to congratulate them, and their eyes were also full of envy when they looked at Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu also responded with a smile one by one.

Then, I heard a "crackling" firecracker sound, which turned out to be the shopkeeper setting off firecrackers.

An inn like theirs, every time the imperial examination will prepare one or two cannon battles, and when someone is in high school, they will immediately light it up to celebrate, and at the same time, they will also start the reputation of their inn.

I saw the innkeeper come over and congratulate: "Congratulations, congratulations, Zhang Xianggong High School, Bidian is also honored, and the old man has nothing to give, Zhang Xianggong has all the consumption in the store before." How?"

Liu Xiu was grateful again.

His mood is still a little difficult to calm down, although he is only a showman, he is still at the bottom of the scholars, but after all, he is no longer a civilian, not a slaughtered pig, and has the qualifications to be a man.

The common people, to put it bluntly, are pigs and sheep in captivity in the imperial court, ready to be slaughtered at any time.

is the so-called county order that broke the door, and the order Yin who destroyed the door. Not to mention these high-ranking officials, they are some low-ranking officials, who use some privileges to perform simple operations in conscription and taxation, which can kill a family and achieve annihilation.

And becoming a talent means that he has transformed from a pig and a sheep to a person, and has the qualifications to be a man.

The so-called county lord may cherish the people, but this kind of cherishing is better like the farmer's love for cattle and sheep, and the love for the fields and crops. The county magistrate will not talk about human rights, equality, and reason with the grass people, just like ****** can't be reasonable with pigs.

And now, he has become a showman, and he is in the same class as the county master, so he can be reasonable and have the right to speak.

This world will deceive you, but only fame will never deceive you. As long as you become a showman, the elder of the sect will not dare to difficult you, the squire will not dare to difficult you, the junior officials will not dare to difficult you, and the officials will not dare to difficult you, even the county lord will give face.

There will never again be a small official of the county government who comes to the door to oppress, and the landlord class and the village bullies do not dare to come to the door to oppress.

More importantly, some of Liu Xiu's golden fingers can be used.

In the past, Liu Xiu didn't dare to show his golden finger and make a fortune, just because once this happened, he might attract tigers and wolves, and finally be eaten;

In the past, in the eyes of his parents, he was just a child, but now that he has passed the examination, his parents will never treat him as a child anymore.

"I'm only thirteen years old now, and I've passed the exam, and if I'm not too lucky, it's possible to lift people in the exam! As long as I pass the exam, I can become a tyrant in the county at that time!"

Liu Xiu thought.

In the past, he always thought that Tong Sheng was a high school student, Xiu was a college student, Juren was a master's degree, Jinshi was a doctor, and Hanlin was a postdoctoral fellow.

But now it seems that being a child means being eligible to take the civil service examination;

Xiucai is a reserve civil servant who is qualified to become a unit-level official and a section-level official;

Raise people, who are qualified to be county-level officials and city-level officials;

Jinshi, on the other hand, is a department-level reserve official who is qualified to be the mayor, the director of the provincial public security department and other officials.

And Hanlin, who is qualified to become a ministerial-level official, a state-level official.
