"Your father? Brother Jingfei, I didn't say you, you are too worried, right? Have you ever worried about what your dad is doing for you? Duan Shaojun laughed out loud directly, it was clear that she had met a good fate, and then she came to show it in order to attract attention. I can't say that, this kind of Ming media is marrying and it's not a kiln, of course, my father has to agree. Hu Xiaoniang rolled her eyes and said very depressedly. I went to the kiln, how could he stop me if he liked to agree or not, but this time, the words of the matchmaker, the order of my parents, if my father disagrees, it will be over. ”

"He won't disagree, don't worry." Duan Shaojun said with an affirmative expression.

Hu Xiaoniang glanced at Duan Shaojun curiously. "Brother Xian, how can you be so sure that my father will agree?"

"Brother Tai, what a romantic person you are, your reputation in Lanting can be described as this...... It's rare that you meet someone who doesn't open your eyes to you, and it's okay if your father doesn't burn incense and worship the Buddha, where do you dare to disagree? Duan Shaojun said with a smile.

Hearing that, Chen Jian laughed wildly, and Hu Xiaoniang glared at Duan Shaojun with a complicated expression, thinking about it carefully, this is indeed the truth. His reputation in Lanting is insignificant. It's rare to have someone who is willing to marry him, and his own father is afraid that he can't agree with it?

"Anyway, what does that girl look like, she actually makes Brother Hu so soulless." Chen Jian couldn't help but ask curiously.

Hu Xiaoniang smiled dryly, just didn't say anything, forget it, no matter how much you like this product, it can't be Xi Shi squatting in his house, and then began to eat and drink in order to celebrate becoming a Jinshi, while making new friends, for Duan Shaojun, the champion, although many people are not convinced, but there are also people who admire his intelligence.

Therefore, under the repeated toasts, Duan Shaojun was thrown to the ground before he even held half of this grace banquet. Honorably sacrificed on the spot for posterity to pay respects.

#####

If you become the champion, will everything be fine? Wrong! The champion is just an honorary title, if you want to do a job, if you want to be an official, I'm sorry, you have to obediently go to the ministry to report, after passing the official examination, the people from the three provinces and six departments will be selected.

Jinshi like Duan Shaojun are at most reserve officials, and they must wait until they pass the examination of the Ministry of Officials before they can be selected by the three provinces and six departments, which makes Duan Shaojun feel like a red man in the Qinglou, waiting for a buyer, damn!

However, the official examination is no longer as strict as the imperial examination, and it is not crowded with more than 300 people squatting here at once, but more like an interview, just like more than 30 new jinshi who received the notice to come to the interview today, all squatting in the lobby of the official department. The person who was called would follow the clerk in, and in the special examination room, the three bigwigs of the official department would conduct the official release test for the new jinshi.

There are four criteria for the so-called Shi Brown selection of people, first, they must be good in appearance and dignified in appearance, it can be said that none of the officials in the Tang Empire are crooked melons and cracked dates, but it is precisely because of this that there are always bad people in these thick eyebrows and big eyes, but it is really difficult to distinguish good from bad in terms of appearance.

Well, what is the second one, that is, to speak in an orderly manner, with a smooth voice, it is best to have a good voice of a CCTV announcer, which can be a plus. If you speak dryly and hissed, and hum a song like a dead rooster, such a person will be directly photopsied.

Third, naturally look at your calligraphy, whether the writing is handsome enough, if it is like chicken feet scraping mud, you will also be deducted points.

Fourth, it is natural to look at the article, whether the prose is beautiful, and whether it can make people feel pleasing to the eye.

If these four articles meet the standard, they can be awarded. If you can't pass it, then, you have to postpone the exam, three months later, there was a hard test for nearly a year, before passing the assessment of the ministry, so, the authority of the ministry is so great, it can be seen from having the right to have such an examination, no wonder Zhao Linfugui is now the ruling of the dynasty, and he is still angry about not being able to control the ministry, presumably because the ministry controls the authority of officials.

For example, here, it is necessary to test your calculation ability, but also to test whether you have the ability to deal with government affairs, for example, to throw you a case of Dali Temple, so that you can find traces of spiders.

Or to tell you, the Ministry of Industry now wants to purchase 7,000 sets of armor, 10,000 hard bows, 100,000 arrows, how much does it cost?

Hu Xiaoniang was assigned such an arithmetic problem, and this product is also doing business at home, so she answered correctly and passed the risk.

As for Chen Jian's share of how to deal with the southern border troubles, this buddy directly said that he should sing ethical and moral articles there, and benevolence and righteousness will inevitably make the aliens sincerely bow down and return to their hearts, Duan Shaojun is very disdainful of this.

But the problem is that this product has actually passed, damn, such an answer, in Duan Shaojun's opinion, is simply stupid, but it just passed, but it may have something to do with looking at the face, Chen Jian is also a handsome guy with thick eyes and big eyes.

Finally, when Duan Shaojun was a little dozing off, it was finally his turn. With a big yawn and a good spirit, he walked with the former clerk towards the examiner.

Soon came to the examination site, which was Zhang Jiuling, the secretary of the ministry, Wen Shouzheng, the left attendant of the ministry, and Liu Qian, the right attendant of the ministry. These three squatted together, not to mention these young people, even the state thorn brother who was a noble third official would feel trembling when he saw these three.

After all, the work of the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment, dismissal, inspection, promotion, transfer and other affairs of officials across the country.

Duan Shaojun also respectfully saluted the three great gods. I have to say that Duan Shaojun is a handsome guy, although he can't wake up handsome in the middle of the night, but walking on the road can definitely make the opposite sex look sideways.

And his handsomeness is the kind of handsome with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and clear water chestnut angles, not Li Xuan's small face, which is as beautiful as a pseudo-girl.

Zhang Jiuling cleared his throat and said after bowing his head slightly to Duan Shaojun. "This official has a question, you can listen carefully, now, the Western Regions controlled by my Datang are quite chaotic, the city and the state are wanton, and the city controlled by my Datang is eyeing the city fortress controlled by my Datang, and in the city controlled by my Datang, foreign races live together with my Han people, and there are often contradictions, if you are an official here, how should you deal with it?"

"Give you half an hour to think about it, if there is no solution after half a quarter of an hour, or the method is not applicable, your release test will not pass." Next to him, Liu Qian, the right attendant of the ministry, said with a smile.

This is the title, Duan Shaojun smashed his mouth and glanced at Liu Shilang, who was smiling like a fox. "Can I say that now?"

"You don't think about it?" Zhang Jiuling couldn't help but be stunned, what kind of nerves did this thing have, let you think about it, you don't even think about it, you are a fart boy?

#####

Duan Shaojun's face was straight, and he put on a posture of worrying about the country and the people. "Before the imperial examination, the lower officials had already begun to worry about the country and the people, and now, it is the right time, so there is already a belly case, so there is no need to think about it, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the three officials almost squirted out the tea in their bellies, and there was an urge to hope that the three of them would strike together and kick this product out of the examination room.

Wen Shouzheng coughed violently, Liu Qian looked at the few long beards that he pulled off in distress, and Zhang Jiuling looked at this guy with a black line, although he was mentally prepared, he still didn't expect him to say such things so brazenly.

After a long time, the three officials regained their calmness. Zhang Jiuling's face darkened and he snorted. "Then you should say carefully, if there is something wrong, then this official exam, don't think about passing."

Duan Shaojun rolled his eyes helplessly, alas, why is it that people like himself with strong self-confidence are always not welcomed by these old-fashioned people in this era? It seems that the generation gap is very deep, not the kind that will disappear if you squeeze it.

Duan Shaojun cleared his throat and began to flicker, no, this is not flickering, but reasoning with facts. There are too many experiences in dealing with ethnic minorities in later generations, no matter what kind of land is changed and returned, or what kind of wanton division of large and small khans and kings is large, in order to win over a group of people, suppress a group, so that the other party cannot be clenched into a fist.

Of course, there is also the ideological and cultural aspect, the construction of schools, improve the cultural literacy of the local people, and strengthen the sense of identity and honor of the Tang Empire......
