Lu Yu looked up and down at the young man in front of him with some curiosity.
This young man looks to be only about twenty years old, and the official robe he is wearing proves that his rank is not high. The Yu imperial court distinguishes rank by the color of the official robe. Generally, only those in the eighth to ninth rank will wear green robes.
"Your Excellency, Chen Xian, has just passed the cabinet selection examination and assumed the position of cabinet minister."
Having said this, a trace of pride flashed across Chen Xian's face.
He is a scholar from the Imperial Capital Territory. If he wants to become an official, he should at least pass the Galaxy Trial of the Imperial Capital Territory and become a Juren before he is barely qualified.
The Galaxy Trial is held every three years. If you want to participate, you have to wait until next year.
But since Lu Yu established the Yamen Entrance Examination, many people who have not yet had official status have also found opportunities.
Anyone under fifty years old, innocent, and not holding an important position in the outside sect can take the exam!
This completely broke the ancient rules for selecting talents in the imperial court, and even set a precedent!
When being criticized by countless conservative ministers, the Ministry of Rites announced the recruitment list, which not only included the two newly established yamen, but also the cabinet, six ministries, and government offices at all levels. The officials recruited were also officials of the eighth grade and below.
.
This is an opportunity to change your destiny.
Suddenly, everyone's emotions were aroused, and countless people flocked to the place.
There were five days to apply, but there were so many people that the Ministry of Ceremonies had no choice but to set up hundreds of registration points to accept applications.
As for the cabinet minister, although he is only a ninth-rank official, he is close to the center, so the competition is particularly fierce!
This time the cabinet is recruiting 100 people, but the number of people who signed up has reached a terrifying five million people!
After the selection process, the talents who come out are truly one in a million!
"Brother, which yamen do you work for?"
Chen Xian looked at Lu Yu and found that Lu Yu was not wearing official robes, and couldn't help but be curious.
The four halls and two pavilions of the cabinet are all located in the palace. Everyone who comes in and out needs to dress properly. Those with official status wear official robes. Even officials have special clothes, which are extremely strict.
Lu Yu was wearing a luxurious brocade dress at the moment. He looked extremely expensive, but his identity was hard to guess.
The cabinet ministers walking around also looked at Lu Yu, their eyes full of curiosity.
Many people in the palace have their own important things to attend to, but this is the first time that Lu Yu is walking back and forth in such a slow and leisurely manner.
Lu Yu smiled faintly and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the door of Zhongji Hall suddenly pushed open.
A row of clerks walked out holding memorials. These memorials had been reviewed and must be quickly conveyed to the department for execution.
"The newly appointed cabinet is walking, take a step forward, the chief minister will give a lecture."
A purple-robed official walked out of Zhongji Hall with a calm expression.
Everyone immediately began to tidy up their clothes, with expectant looks on their faces.
Several officials walked out of Zhongji Hall, all wearing purple robes. These people were participating in political affairs as bachelors.
Among these people, a bright red official robe looked particularly bright. Li Si strode forward in his official robe, with an awe-inspiring aura.
Li Si is not very old, but he has been in a high position for a long time. Over time, he has developed an aura of wealth and aura in his actions and actions. This aura cannot be expressed in words and can only be sensed subconsciously.
