In just three days, the Ministry of Personnel was about to arrange the places for hundreds of Jinshi from the new department. The Ming Jing, Ming Dharma, Ming Calculation, etc. were all easily arranged. There were basic positions in the three halls and two chambers, the three Dharma Departments, and the financial affairs department.
There is also a shortage of people.
On the contrary, the scholars who admitted the most Jinshi subjects took some effort and were properly arranged according to their rankings. Half of them stayed in the central ministries and offices to observe the government, and the rest were sent to Kaifeng Prefecture and Kinki Prefecture County as assistant officials.
.
Compared with the general Jinshi who are anxious and hesitant about where they want to go, Zhang Ji, who has the qualifications to be the top scholar, is much more comfortable and leisurely, but he is also busy, looking for a place to stay.
Many scholars chose to settle in the outer city. Although it was noisy, it was more livable in terms of price and living standards. Now, the government's development and construction of Kaifeng has been basically completed, but there are still many projects in the outer city.
Continuously.
In addition to the designated roads, warehouses, and camps, many scholars and civilians are still building and repairing their own houses. Initially, in Murong Yanchao's plan, the government should build unified houses to compensate for the relocation.
The people in the inner city, but after the construction was completed, in order to save trouble, they directly allocated land, gave some money and food as compensation, and allowed themselves to build...
After Jing Fan took office, he found that the self-built houses of the common people were uneven and extremely untidy, so he stipulated a set of standards for the construction of private houses. In order to keep the appearance of Tokyo clean, all self-built houses must be within the framework of the official announcement.
Within the organization, those who do not comply will have to make rectifications.
When Liu Chengyou first heard about it, he was a little surprised. Therefore, today's Kaifeng City, no matter from which angle it looks, looks neat and orderly, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Tokyo City is still under development, and the government and the people are building it together.
Going too far again...
Of course, Zhang Ji also chose to live in a private house in the outer city. His family was not poor, but it was not much better. When he came to Beijing to take the exam, his uncle Zhang Yi (also the Chief Secretary of Huaidong) sponsored
I made some money, but it was only enough for daily expenses in March.
After finishing everything, his appointment came down. You Shiyi, Chongzheng Lang, from the seventh rank, serving in Chongzheng Hall. The starting point can be said to be very high. The first two people with this kind of treatment are Wang Zhu and
Zhao Huo.
On March 25th, early in the morning, Zhang Ji carefully washed himself, sprinkled some spices, and put on a brand new official uniform. He went to the palace early. Although it was not the first time to enter the palace, this time he felt obviously uncomfortable.
Similarly, during the palace examination, my heart was full of yearning and my steps were dancing. Now, my heart still carries expectations, but it has landed.
As if he had overcome many difficulties, he was finally able to enter the Chongzheng Palace. At dawn, the palace was still shrouded in gloom. However, the emperor Liu Chengyou was already sitting high on the imperial desk, his posture as usual.
He stood up straight, seemed not to be tired, and was immersed in reading the memorial.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Jie, see you!" Zhang Jie bowed respectfully.
Raising his head, Liu Chengyou looked at him. Zhang Ji, who had put on official uniform, looked handsome in a different way. Liu Chengyou asked lightly: "Zhang Ji, how many times has this met?"
"Back to Your Majesty! The fourth time!" Zhang Ji's mind seemed to be less flexible than usual. He thought about it for a while and then said.
The restaurant, the palace examination, the Qionglin Banquet, plus this one, the one that shocked Zhang Jie the most was of course the palace examination. Until now, Zhang Jie still thought that he lost the top prize because at the time of the palace examination, he was so shocked that he behaved Not good…
"Does this official uniform still fit you?" Liu Chengyou asked again, maintaining a condescending attitude.
Upon hearing the question, Zhang Ji subconsciously checked his attire and found that there was nothing wrong with it. After all, he had taken care of it carefully before entering the palace. His awkward appearance was a bit like when he was forced to see Liu Chengyou in the restaurant.
But facing the emperor's gaze, Zhang Ji still replied cautiously: "Your Majesty, it fits me very well!"
"Since it fits you, wear it well!" Liu Chengyou nodded, making a pun.
Although it was difficult to understand what he meant, Zhang Jie still responded honestly: "Yes!"
Seeing his embarrassed and cautious look, Liu Chengyou frowned slightly. He was also careful, Zhao Yao was cautious and decent, while Zhang Ji looked uneasy.
Putting down a memorial in his hand, Liu Chengyou relaxed his muscles and bones, clasped his hands together, and asked slightly curiously: "Zhang Jie, I want to ask you, what are your previous views on the 'practical' test questions I asked? ?"
The emperor's face showed neither joy nor anger, and was as calm as a deep pool, making it difficult to discern. Zhang Ji hesitated a little when he was asked. This seemed to be a question for investigation, and he did not dare to answer randomly as he was not familiar with the emperor's temperament.
"Why, my question is so difficult to answer?" Seeing his hesitation, Liu Chengyou urged impatiently.
"My lord, stick to your previous opinion!" Gritting his teeth, Zhang Ji decided to stick to his opinion.
Hearing this, Liu Chengyou looked unconcerned and continued to ask: "I still remember that in the Jinshi Tower, you were very talkative, clear and confident. Why, why did you change to Chongzheng Hall? Are you feeling uneasy? I just changed into a royal robe, and yet I am making you so scared?"
Faced with the emperor's remarks, Zhang Ji did not agree with him. He murmured in his heart that there was a big difference between the two. However, he still slightly flattered him and said: "I just deeply dare to see His Majesty's power. Please read it again." It's just that I didn't know the depth and made mistakes, and I was ashamed!"
Liu Chengyou immediately smiled and said: "In terms of literary talent, you should be the number one in the undergraduate program. This is a public discussion. Do you know why I want to take away your number one position?"
Zhang Ji was stunned for a moment, and a trace of composure appeared on his handsome face. However, since the emperor had spoken before him, he was not so nervous anymore and chose to answer truthfully: "During the imperial examination, I was uneasy and my performance was poor!"
"That's wrong!" Liu Chengyou said directly.
"Let me ask you again, what is the relationship between the duties of Shishi and Chongzheng Lang?" He asked again before he could react.
Zhang Ji subconsciously replied: "The relic palm is used to offer satirical advice and make up for the master's mistakes in words and deeds; Chongzheng Lang assists your majesty in handling state affairs!"
Liu Chengyou was noncommittal and did not express satisfaction or dissatisfaction with his answer. He just said lightly: "Since that's what you think, then behave well!"
"Yes!" Zhang Jie responded quickly.
After a slight hesitation, Zhang Ji took the initiative and said: "Your Majesty, there is something I don't know whether to say or not!"
"You've already spoken, so let's just say it!" Liu Chengyou's mouth twitched slightly.
"Your Majesty, when I was looking for a place to live in the past few days, I found that there are many scholars who have been entrusted with positions and stay in Tokyo, but it is difficult to find a place to stay. In particular, many poor scholars have spent a lot of money to go to Beijing to take the exam. Although many people are still in office today, Tokyo is vast and difficult to live in. Therefore, many people still have not found a suitable place to live, and many people are already heavily in debt..." Zhang Jie reported.
After hearing what he said, Liu Chengyou looked more serious, glanced at Zhang Ji, and said: "On the first day I took office, I gave you this advice. It seems to be true. If it is as you said, this is the relationship between me and the imperial court. It was an oversight!”
After receiving the emperor's approval, Zhang Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his handsome face relaxed a bit.
"Zhao Huo!" Liu Chengyou called to the side.
"I'm here!" Zhao Yao stepped forward to wait for orders.
Pointing at Zhang Jie, Liu Chengyou ordered: "Please arrange for him!"
"yes!"
Zhang Ji followed Zhao Wei to the side hall, and his whole body relaxed. He was under great pressure to confront the emperor. Zhang Ji has always behaved freely and casually, giving people a sense of chic and suave. . But now it seems that it is probably an external manifestation. I am afraid that the desire for fame and fortune in my heart is indispensable. Otherwise, if I have no worries and is magnanimous and natural, my performance will not be so scrupulous.
After Zhang Jie retired, Liu Chengyou thought for a while, wrote down a note about Zhang Jie's complaints, and handed it to Zhang Dejun: "Send it to the Political Affairs Hall and ask Li Xiang to send people to investigate, and deal with the Jinshi scholars based on the truth." placement problem!”
"yes!"
After giving the instructions, Liu Chengyou stopped smiling and whispered in a playful tone: "Today's message, if it is publicized, the court will solve the plight of the Jinshi who have been admitted. This piece of paper will affect the reputation and prestige of the scholars." , I’m afraid no one else can match it..."
