"Ding! Provoked a Northern vassal state, angered the officials of the imperial court, obtained 8000 points.”
"Ding! Your deeds have been widely spread. Reputation 2000. Obtained 2000 points.”
"Total points: 12000.”
Yan Hao thought that he had done a righteous deed this time, so he wouldn't get many points. He didn't expect to receive an unexpected surprise today.
"10,000 points is enough. What should I draw this time?”
Yan Hao had already divided the concrete technology into three parts and sent it to Jiangxi through unknown means to Qiao Zhiyong. With this concrete technology, money would naturally come in droves in the future.
However, in Feng Ji's communication letter, the situation in Jiangxi was not very optimistic. The disaster in Jiangnan began to spread south and hit Jiangxi. Meanwhile, in Zhe City, Bao Dapao fired a few shots in a row and saw many officials and businessmen, stabilizing the situation a little.
Anyway, this was not an easy life.
In the letter, Feng Ji also mentioned that there would be a heavy rain in three to four months, and the triennial exams would begin.
The exam was the imperial examination system's imperial examination. The candidates would meet in one place to compete in their skills. The Ministry of Rites hosted the examination in the capital. Those who took the examination were the candidates of the provinces. Those who were admitted were called "Gongshi", and the first place was called "Huiyuan". The content of the examination was more important than poetry.
Because it was held in spring, it was also known as the spring examination. If the provincial examination has Enke, then the next year will also hold a try, called will try Enke.
And in March next year, it would be the time for the exams.
Although Yan Hao hadn't been out for a stroll recently, he had heard from his servants that many candidates from all over the country had gathered in the capital. Many inns had already begun to prepare rooms for these candidates.
Now that business was booming, the merchants were also putting in a lot of effort to build up their reputation. It was so cheap to stay in the High Scholar's Residence. If they won the Meeting Essence or even the Court Examination, the reputation of this inn would definitely soar. They would not have to worry about no one staying here in the future.
Yu Chao's business was booming, and they had a lot of wisdom.
Thinking of the exams, Yan Hao recalled the situation where he was surrounded and attacked at the court meeting yesterday. Rice worms had their disadvantages, which was that they were not good at leading teams.
"Why don't you give me a civil servant instead of a strategist or a business talent…"
Yan Hao prayed.
"Let's draw it now."
" Ding…starting drawing historical figures, 10,000 points deducted…"
"Ding…drawing complete. You have received a historical figure-Civil Official: Shen Shixing."
"Shen Shixing: The son of a wealthy businessman surnamed Shen in Suzhou. He was the first place in the court examination in the forty-first year of Jiajia. He successively served as the Imperial Academy Xiuzhuan, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Grand Scholar of the East Pavilion, the Chief Assistant, the Prince Taishi, and the Grand Scholar of the Zhongji Hall. Loyalty 100%."
" Historical evaluation: He is a smooth person who has no opinion of his own. He is capable but does not show too much. He is mediocre and shrewd..."
"Current position: Right Assistant Minister of the Board of Rites (Third Grade).”
Yan Hao was pleasantly surprised. Good luck indeed. Whether it was Feng Ji, Qiao Zhiyong, or this Shen Shixing, they were all what he urgently needed now.
Shen Shixing, who was in front of him, had a very high evaluation from the system. In the era of Jiajia, who was a monster, Shen Shixing would probably live a better life than ordinary people.
Yan Hao waited for more than an hour. Soon, the doorman handed him an envelope."Old Master, a child just handed this over. He said that after you take a look, Old Master will definitely understand what it means.”
Yan Hao took a look and saw that it was written below," Your Excellency."
Shen Shixing's name was Ru Mo. It was obvious that Shen Shixing didn't come and sent a letter instead.
Opening the envelope, Shen Shixing explained the reason why he couldn't come. He also suggested that the two of them not contact each other for the time being. It was most appropriate to split into two parties so that they could secretly help each other in the future.
"This Shen Shixing is indeed an old fox.”Yan Hao was not afraid that Shen Shixing would betray him. After all, the system was 100% loyal.
Shen Shixing's method was the most beneficial for the current situation. Yan Hao was now favored by the Emperor, but his power was weak. Qi, Chu, Zhe, Jin, and Donglin Party were all united, but they were not liked by the Emperor and were also restraining each other. The situation was unpredictable, so Shen Shixing, the old fox, suggested hiding for the time being.
Yan Hao thought that he would not have to contact Shen Shixing for the time being, but something unexpected happened.
……
On the second day of court, the emissary from the Northern Kingdom had already left the capital and returned to the foreign country. However, the number of officials did not decrease much today.
At this time, Yan Hao also noticed his new underling, Shen Shixing. This person was just behind the position of Minister of the Six Ministries. When he saw Yan Hao looking over, he just pointed at Yang He in front of him.
Yan Hao nodded without leaving a trace. He had completed his first face-to-face meeting (→_→!!）。
Then, Yan Hao cast a mind reading spell on Yang He, who was closest to him, to see what was going on with so many people.
In the end, he heard Yang He's thoughts,"The general exams are coming soon. Now is the best time to appoint an examiner for the general exams while I'm in the Ministry of Rites."
"It's actually a general examination." Yan Hao was enlightened.
The Ministry of Rites presided over the general exams, so it was also called the " Imperial Examination." Of course, it was not as simple as the Ministry of Rites presiding over the general exams. There were four main examiners, one chief and three deputy chief examiners. The chief examiners were scholars who were born in the imperial examination. Below the minister rank, the deputy imperial examiners were officials. These four people were nominated by the Ministry of Rites and appointed by the Emperor.
Therefore, the Ministry of Rites usually took the majority.
However, every imperial examination was a major event that attracted the attention of the entire country. It even involved the selection of future talents, especially this general examination. It was of the highest standard and could be said to be a huge piece of fat meat. Naturally, many people would take a bite of it.
If Yang He wanted to take a big bite, he had to see if the other parties would agree.
Very soon, a soldier stepped out and fired the first shot of the general exams, bringing up the matter of the general exams for everyone to give their opinions.
Then, all the troops nodded. The general exams were bound to be held, so they naturally wouldn't stop it.
Jiajia nodded." Alright, then. Today, all the ministers will give us a few candidates to discuss."”# Date:09 30 2019 6:45PM
