Three Hundred and Five: 3 Years in Langya (5)
Han Yu has a character that never looks back until he hits the wall. If Wei Ci provokes him a little bit, he will jump.
However, Wei Ci did not continue to "bully" Han Yu this time. Instead, he sighed and spoke.
"The official family is now allowing the eunuchs to do whatever they want, and they pretend to be invisible to the officials who are selling titles. As for the relatives, one of them is a chicken or a dog and has ascended to heaven. The official family obviously wants to support the two forces and attack the aristocratic family. Feng Ren has become an official. There are two reasons. One is to protest against the injustice of his second son Feng Jin, and the other is that he has seen that Dong Qing is now terminally ill and cannot be cured. "
Cheng Jing took over, "Wen Bin's temperament is still tough. Now that he's so angry, what will he do in the future?"
Feng Ren's appointment has become a signal. If other aristocratic families have the foresight, they will evacuate one after another, or watch indifferently.
The vacant official positions naturally became a cake for eunuchs and relatives to compete for.
No matter which side wins, most of the people they install are people with evil intentions who only care about their own interests.
In this way, if this court can still be saved, it will really be like smoke rising from the ancestral grave.
The corner of Han Yu's mouth twitched, and the two people in front of him were singing along, which made him look so immature.
"Shaoyin, don't you have anything to say?" Han Yu asked Lu Zheng for reinforcements.
Lu Zheng snorted, "I have no ambitions in life. I just want to have enough food, clothing, and a house to live in. As long as you are an official, no matter how big or small you are, you can just live your own small life and take care of the people. For other things, if you have enough heart and energy, Let those who are capable take care of it.”
Han Yu almost fell down from anger.
These are not reinforcements, they are simply pig teammates.
Cheng Jing said, "Wen Bin, don't get into trouble and do whatever you need to do. In this situation, it is really not a good opportunity to become an official in the court."
Han Yu said aggrievedly, "Are you three here to cheer me up, or are you here to make me angry sincerely?"
Wei Ci winked slightly mischievously and said to him, "Ci didn't say he was here to relieve you."
Han Yu: "..."
Friends are gone, friendship is over!
According to previous practice, the scholars who stand out in the evaluation will receive the appointment letter from the court within half a month.
Sent to various places.
Regarding the arrangements for each scholar, their abilities and family background will generally be considered comprehensively.
Although the official position is not high, it is very challenging and easy to accumulate experience.
Official positions in more remote places are slightly higher, while in more prosperous places they are lower.
If there are family members taking care of things everywhere, the official position and location can also be changed as appropriate, which is very maneuverable.
However, now that the government and the public are in chaos, many officials have tacitly forgotten this matter, and the emperor has not even mentioned it.
Yuan Jing and his party stayed in Shangjing for half a month, and many students were worried about what might happen.
Wei Ci and the others were very stable. Every day they would either quietly read and practice calligraphy, or have a few rounds of hand-to-hand conversations with their classmates, reciting poems and writing poems to pass the time.
Lu Zheng was sitting on one side of the chessboard, watching Wei Ci beating Han Yu. Fu Ling was so moved that he said something unexpectedly.
"It's been half a month. If I don't go back, I'm afraid I should spend this year in Shangjing."
Han Yu looked at the situation on the chessboard and his mind went crazy, "The appointment letter from the imperial court has not been issued, so it is difficult to leave."
Wei Ci made a move with a smile on his face, forcing Han Yu to die.
"Maybe the appointment letter won't come out."
"Why do you say that?" Han Yu asked.
Wei Ci stabbed, "Probably, all the available official positions have been sold out."
It is naturally impossible to sell out all official positions.
However, the court was busy preparing for the marriage of Princess An Yina of Northern Xinjiang and the second prince, and Dong Qing also wanted to quarrel with Northern Xinjiang.
One by one, they are red-eyed and want to gain benefits for themselves. Why should they care about these scholars?
These days, if there is anything that is more sensational, apart from Feng Ren's return to his hometown a while ago, it is Liu She, the governor of Hu County, who has returned to his hometown.
Regarding the former, the emperor happily took back the position of Zhongshu Ling and then promoted his own confidants.
Regarding the latter, the emperor also wanted to do the same, but Liu She presented the document at the court meeting, and someone immediately jumped up and said how Liu She had worked hard and accomplished over the years, and how the Hu County under his rule had gone from being deserted to what it is today. He is a major grain-producing county and alleviates the grain shortage in the two neighboring states. He is a hero of Sheji. He is still so young. If he becomes an official, it will be Dongqing's biggest loss.
The words were so impassioned that the emperor was embarrassed to accept Liu She's appointment.
"In that case, do you have any good suggestions?"
Although the emperor was shameless, he still had to wear a fig leaf because he didn't want to make a fuss and lose face at the court.
Liu She took the opportunity to repeat his intention to become an official, but another official jumped out and said no. If the emperor agreed, wouldn't it make everyone in the world mistakenly think that the emperor was greedy for the wealth of Hu County, and wanted to cross the river and demolish the bridge to seize the fruits of victory from others? ?
Liu She is just a brick, he can be moved wherever there is a shortage.
Well, after a "intense" discussion, someone suddenly mentioned that Chongzhou still lacks a state pastor.
The state pastor is larger than the county guard. The former manages a state, while the latter manages a small county.
Everyone has completely forgotten that there are only Shangyu County and Changhe County in Chongzhou. Shangyu County has six cities in total, three of which are still in the hands of Beijiang. Its overall area is the smallest among the six states in Dongqing, and it borders Beijiang to the north. Who knows? Do you know how long it will take before you lose your head after taking office?
Although Hu County is only a county, its area is comparable to that of a state, not to mention that it is now extremely rich and prosperous under the governance of Liu She.
The Emperor of Dongqing weighed the matter in his heart and made a decisive decision. He pretended to show his appreciation for Liu She and said that the world was in turmoil now. If Liu She retired at this time, it would be a loss for Dongqing and a regret for the people. Without saying anything, he threw the post of Mu of Chongzhou on Liu She's head.
Liu She responded with some tiredness and reluctance on the surface, but he sighed secretly in his heart.
He had god-like teammates around him, and all the enemies on the other side were pig-like enemies.
The difficulty was too small and it felt unchallenging.
Liu She left the court with a cold face, holding the hot and fresh post of Mu of Chongzhou, and ignored everyone.
"He doesn't know what's good for him. He's been promoted from a county governor to a state governor, but he's frowning..."
"Tsk, who doesn't know that Hu County is a hot commodity now? One county feeds two states. How much food is that? In my opinion, Liu She didn't want to retire today. He just pretended to stay in Hu County. He didn't know that the government transferred him to Chongzhou. Chongzhou, what is this place? Three wolves are watching from the north, and I can't sleep well most of the night..."
"Oh? Isn't that a big loss?"
"Too clever is too clever. Who made him stupid?"
"I don't know who will take over the position of Hu County Governor..."
"Anyway, it can't be you and me. Just watch the fun. Hu County, everyone wants to take a bite."
The surrounding chatter drifted into Liu She's ears, and his face was still livid.
After getting on the carriage, he smiled faintly.
Who is too clever?
Soon, everyone will know who is really stupid.
The carriage stopped, Liu She got off the sedan chair, and his confidant came forward and said something to him.
"Master, I found the person you are looking for."
Liu She was stunned for a moment, and his expression quickly restrained.
"Found it?"
"Yes, they look exactly 70% similar!"
The confidant made a seven gesture.
Liu She's chest was beating rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
"Very good."
