Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 157 Qin Hao Selects Officials
Tai Chi Temple.

A table of battle reports was densely spread out in front of Li Er, from time to time he wrote, drew, and studied something on the map behind him.

The troops in front had already fought against the Turks, which made this experienced emperor a little nervous. He used to take the lead in pacifying the world. For the first time, it happened to be this kind of national war.

If it weren't for his unstable throne, this time he should have personally conquered anyway. Now he is far away in Chang'an, and the battle report he received was as early as three days ago. The frontline battles are unpredictable. Apart from a little guiding opinion on the overall situation He didn't dare to order anything else, this feeling of passively waiting for the judgment of fate almost drove him crazy.

"My lord, take a break."

Li Er turned his head and found that it was Empress Changsun, and sighed with red eyes: "It's Guanyin's maidservant. I also know that this is a useless effort, but I just can't help it."

"My lord, you are too nervous. Looking at you, your eyes are red. Why don't I accompany you to the Furong Garden for a walk, and relax."

Li Er smiled wryly and shook his head, "Forget it, I'm not in the mood."

"Then why don't you go hunting."

Li Er still shook his head and said, "I'm not in the mood, besides, I've hit him eleven times in the past month. If I hit him again, it's time for Wei Zheng to remonstrate and bother him."

Empress Changsun said with a smile: "When we talk about Wei Zheng, I think of his disciple. At the beginning, I saved the horseshoe gold that I saved from living frugally, but he sent it back. I always remember it. , Recently, there are rumors in the palace that he is a child prodigy, and I heard that even Pei Ji has softened to him, and took the initiative to give up half of the Sikong Mansion."

Li Er smiled and said: "That kid, well, he is indeed capable. After all, Pei Ji is an old fox. This time he smelled it. I heard that even the white jade lion left by Pei Ju was given away. As the founding prime minister of his country Bow your head to a mere child, hehe, this kind of heart is really good, if he could have this kind of heart back then, maybe there would be nothing so troublesome."

Empress Changsun said with a smile: "When the Holy Majesty said that, the concubine became even more curious. I heard that the relationship between this child and Chengqian is also very good. I, as a mother, have not seen it yet."

Li Shimin was taken aback, thought for a while and said: "Today is the day when this brat chooses officials. The official department has been preparing for this day for a long time. I heard that all the Jinshi in the capital are thinking about joining this kid. This kid He always thinks things differently from others, and I don’t know what kind of troubles will happen to the officials he chose, why don’t we go out casually and go to the Ministry of Officials to see this kid?”

Empress Changsun was overjoyed. She had no interest in how Qin Hao chose officials, but it would be nice to be able to take Li Er, who was almost insane, out to relax. Besides, Qin Hao had such a good relationship with Li Chengqian after all, she was indeed a mother. I want to meet who it is.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were generally two ways to become an official, scientific examination and accommodation.

Suwei basically means the second generation of officials, and the main direction in the future is to go to the battlefield to fight, while civilians or children from poor families, the greatest hope of struggle is scientific research, although the scientific research at this time is far from perfect after the Song Dynasty, The most annoying thing is that after you pass the imperial examination, you can't become an official immediately. The Ministry of Officials also has an internal assessment.

At this time, a large group of scholars who were selected as Jinshi or Mingjing were all wearing single clothes and lined up with their arms folded, shivering in the cold wind. Their faces were livid from the cold wind, but their His eyes are hot, but his heart is hot.

Today is the day when the well-known Xiaoxian Qin Hao came to the Ministry of Officials to select officials. Although he made a lot of shortcomings this time, there are more wolves and less flesh. The future is bright, all the scholars who have not had time to fill the vacancies in the past three years have come to line up early in the morning, and even the old Jinshi of Wu De Nian rode from other places for a day and a night to the capital, just to meet Qin Haoyi face, as if he will definitely pass the interview and jump into the dragon's gate from now on.

After waiting for a long time, Qin Hao came late on his horse. After getting off the horse, he saw that everyone was obviously taken aback. He looked at their unlined clothes and then at the thick mink on his body. He stretched out his hand and touched snowflakes on the ground. .

There's nothing wrong with it, it's winter now, what's going on with these people?
He didn't know that appearance was the most important thing in selecting officials in the Tang Dynasty besides grades, and he didn't know who passed it on, saying that Qin Hao was a talented man with literary talents. Besides, those who can stand here have already rolled over from the scientific examination room, and their grades have already been determined.

But talent and learning can't hold Buddha's feet, but demeanor is okay, so today the gang of bastards are in a tacit understanding, and there is not a single one who wears fur.

If only one person does this kind of thing, it will be very special, very brilliant, and maybe it will really look very personable, but a group of people are as cold as grandchildren with their arms folded. . . . .No matter how you look at it, it feels so silly.

Qin Hao was still surprised, didn't it mean that in the early Tang Dynasty, the people who could take the imperial examination were all wealthy families, and the conditions should be pretty good, why are they so poor that they can't even afford a coat?

Going in and looking, it turned out that the eldest grandson Wuji came out to greet him in person, so frightened that Qin Hao hurriedly saluted, and said repeatedly: "How dare you dare, how can you be a subordinate official, and even labor Zhao Guogong to come out to greet you in person."

Changsun Wuji smiled very cordially and said: "Don't meet with your grandson uncle, my nephew's yamen is about to open, this is a matter for Kunpeng to take advantage of the wind to spread its wings, uncle is here to help you check."

Qin Hao didn't dare to take this seriously. Who doesn't know that Changsun Wuji is an old bastard with a scheming mind that few people can match, so he hurriedly said: "Zhou Sha, Zhe Sha, boy, a small temple and a small Buddha, how dare you work hard, uncle? Xin Xin, since you personally escort the junior, Uncle, the junior will feel more at ease."

He couldn't help muttering in his heart: "Changsun Wuji is not going to add sand to my yamen, is he trying to support the younger generation of his family?"

Although this Changsun Wuji is only a minister of the official department, he is also the number one celebrity of Li Er. Originally, Li Er planned to let him shoot as the minister's left servant, but was disturbed by the empress Changsun, but as the minister of the official department, Fang Xuanling seldom had any objections to the personnel appointment he proposed, if he wanted to install a few of his people for himself, he couldn't refuse at all.

In fact, Changsun Wuji really thought so before. Everyone knows that there is a future with Qin Hao. Since he is close to the water, there is no reason not to get the moon first, but who would have thought that his unlucky sister would bring her brother-in-law here again. He really became Qin Hao's gatekeeper.
