When the first rays of morning light appeared from the east, the master father was like a wind-up machine, and suddenly it bounced.

After a brief wash, he continued to study "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" in the sun.

"Exams are coming up today!" The master father thought in his heart: "You must pass this round!" ”

After this hurdle, for him, it is equivalent to opening the channel of his career.

It's just that there are too many competitors......

Whether he can pass the test or not, he really has no bottom in his heart!

Yesterday, under the dew cloth, a proclamation has been posted that in this round of arithmetic examinations, only the 100 people with the best grades will be admitted, and the rest will be lost!

Although it was cruel, all the scholars, including the master father, felt that it was very reasonable.

They are all geniuses of the self-proclaimed elite.

If you are a genius, how can you be in the company of mediocrity?

At the same time, in a mansion at the other end of Chang'an City, Yan Yi also opened his eyes.

Under the service of the two maidservants, dressed and washed, Yan Yi asked, "What time is it now?" How long is it until the exam starts? ”

"Young master, it's the hour now, and there's still an hour!" The slave and maid who were with him replied.

"Let's prepare the carriage and horses...... Yan Yi rinsed his cheeks with water, took a bowl of salt water handed by the maidservant, rinsed his mouth, and ordered: "It's better to go over early and wait than to waste time!" ”

Today's examination, after these days of fermentation, the whole Chang'an is paying attention.

There is no doubt that there will only be more onlookers outside the examination room today than last time, and if you don't go over early, if you are blocked on the road, will you miss a big event?

Riding the carriage, I came to the street, and as soon as the carriage was on the road, a servant came over and asked, "Dare to ask Mr. is he going to participate in the examination?" ”

Yan Yi nodded and asked, "Something?" ”

The official replied: "On the orders of the Duke of Neishi Chao, we have cleared a road for all gentlemen to rush for the exam, please come with me......"

"Thank you......" Yan Yi nodded, and arched his hand: "There is a noble official Lao to lead the way......"

At the same time, Yan Yi also wondered in his heart: "When did the Inner History Yamen come in?" ”

………………………………………………

"Do you mean that Chao Neishi actually kindly helped us clear several roads in Chang'an that were specially used for scholars to pass, or did he send a large number of people to guide the way?" Not long after Liu De woke up, Ju Meng came to report the sudden actions of the Inner Shi Yamen.

"Chao's sense of smell and reaction are really fast!" Liu De fastened his belt and praised it.

Since the county guard came from Hedong County two days ago, all Hedong scholars, as long as they can pass the second round of the examination, they can unconditionally obtain the qualification for recommendation, and the highest can be recommended as a county lieutenant.

This is a powerful official position of 800 stones!

Second only to the county order, he is a big man in a county, and he has a bright future.

Since hearing about this, Liu De had already expected that the Jiuqing Yamen in the court would definitely come to an end.

Liu De was not surprised at all by the news of such a thing in Hedong County.

The bureaucrats will always keep up with the central authorities at all times in order to show that their policies are correct.

For example, the magic capital of later generations once wiped out all the ancient Chinese and poetry in the primary school textbooks, but as soon as the boss let go, he immediately changed his course, his face was swollen, and he pretended to be cute and said "We feel that we must carry forward the fine traditions of the Chinese nation......

What's more, the scholars themselves are equivalent to being recognized by the central government, and there is no obstacle at all in terms of recommendation qualifications.

It's just that Chao Cuo was almost made unable to step down by Liu De just a few days ago?

In the blink of an eye, he forgot about it and licked it on his knees......

The festival of the political zhì family, sure enough, don't look forward to it!

Facts have proved that as long as there is a benefit, the bureaucrats don't bother to care whether you have ever offended him or not, as long as you can get political achievements, it seems that there is nothing wrong with slapping the left cheek and then sending the right cheek up!

"Let's go!" Liu De waved his hand and said, "Let's go and see ......"

Chao made a mistake and didn't take a look, as if he was a little sorry for the other party......

Out of Weiyang Palace, along the official road, Liu De saw that on both sides of the road, from time to time there are people from the Inner History Yamen running, several roads that were originally for the people of Chang'an to pass have been completely blocked and cleaned up at the moment, only people with the identity certificate of the examination candidates can pass, a qiē is arranged in an orderly manner, fully showing that the internal history of the Yamen under the commander of Chao Cuo, whether it is combat effectiveness or execution and organization, have completely exploded the previous internal history.

"Who's coordinating this qiē?" Liu De looked at it all the way, and couldn't help but be interested in the person who had obtained Chao Cuo's trust and permission to single-handedly organize and plan today's traffic dredging plan.

Even in later generations, there are very few people who can mobilize personnel and resources in such a short period of time, at least at the level of the municipal party committee.

As for in this pre-century era, people who can have such courage and coordination ability are really rare, not to mention anything else, that is, they can clean up those roads and let the citizens and nobles of Chang'an abide by the rules.

"Back to His Highness, it seems that Zhonglang General Zhi is in charge of ......," Ji Meng replied.

"No wonder!" Liu De nodded: "It's the goshawk who made a move!" ”

If you ask the ministers of the DPRK and the central government who can carry the banner of the Legalists, nine out of ten people will answer Zhidu.

And compared with the mistakes, Zhidu is more strict and unkind.

If Chao Cuo will make some compromises and deals according to the needs of the situation, then what about Zhidu, in front of him, except for the Son of Heaven, there is no one who can make him bow his head!

Last year, Cheap Daddy took Jia Ji, the ancestor of Liu Da'er later, and Liu Sheng's mother to go to Shanglin Yuan to hunt, but on the way Jia Ji had a stomachache and went to the toilet, who expected that a wild boar would appear outside Jia Ji's toilet.

Cheap Daddy wanted to drive away the wild boar and rescue his concubine at that time, but was stopped by the accompanying Zhidu, who said, "Death and death are followed by Ji and Ji Jin, what does the world care about Ning Jia Ji?" His Majesty is self-indulgent, and the Queen Mother of Naizong Temple! ”

This is too straightforward, it is simply to regard the concubines in the palace as consumables, and if you die, you will have to accept another one.

If it were in the later generations, Zhidu would probably be torn apart by feminists, but now, he immediately won the appreciation of the cheap father, was promoted to Zhonglang General, and was responsible for the security work of Chang'an, and even the Empress Dowager Dou rewarded him with 100 gold as a reward.

From this matter, Liu De also saw that in the eyes of Zhidu, except for the Son of Heaven in this world, everyone else is scum!

Typical Legalist thinking!

But...... Such a person, Liu De likes it!

Why?

Sooner or later, he will be the emperor!

If he becomes the emperor, and the whole court is full of courtiers like Zhidu, how much worry should be saved, what policy reform decrees, he can decide with a word, and no one will chirp crookedly.

It's just that this can only be YY.

In the entire history of the Han Dynasty, it seems that there is such a stunned young man in Zhidu......

"Let's go meet this goshawk!" Liu De decided.

"Goshawk?" Ju Meng asked curiously, "Does Your Highness mean the Zhonglang General?" ”

"Hmm!" Liu De sighed in his heart, but he forgot that the nickname of Zhidu Goshawk would not be pressed on his head until he became a lieutenant and killed the nobles of Chang'an City, but it didn't matter, as a prince, it was not a big deal to give the minister a nickname!
