Chapter 244 Mountain Road

As we all know, there was no imperial examination system in the Jin Dynasty, and the way to become an official mainly relied on the nine-grade Zhongzheng system for inspection and recommendation.

The specific method is to set up officials, both large and small, in the Jin Dynasty and local governments, who are responsible for evaluating the grades of recommended talents and scholars. Those who are outstanding in the evaluation will be reported to the Prime Minister's Office for review, and finally handed over to the Ministry of Personnel for selection, as a reward for official positions or promotions.

Basis for removal.

Not everyone is qualified to participate in the Zhongzheng review. Only children from aristocratic families are qualified to participate in the review if they are recommended by local famous people. It is almost impossible for children from poor families to get the chance to be evaluated by the Zhongzheng. Even if they participate,

There is a high probability that it is inferior quality.

In the Jin Dynasty, the qualifications for becoming an official were almost monopolized by aristocratic families. It was an open secret to ensure that the children of aristocratic families would be of high quality and enter the officialdom.

The first of the three evaluation criteria for the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System of the Great Jin Dynasty is 'family background', followed by 'career', 'ability' and other qualities. At first, the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System still weighed the comprehensive abilities of all aspects.

The original intention was to select talented people. However, in the Jin Dynasty, it focused entirely on 'family background'.

There are no poor families in the upper ranks, and there are no noble families in the lower ranks. This is a good summary of the current situation of the Zhongzheng system in the ninth rank of the Jin Dynasty. The children of aristocratic families can kill the children of poor families in an instant just in terms of family background, leaving them without many opportunities.

Today's Jin Dynasty is dominated by aristocratic families, and the people who serve as high-ranking officials are all members of the aristocratic family. It is obviously their purpose to monopolize the official channels and give greater opportunities to the children of their own families or closely connected families.

Li Hui wanted an opportunity to participate in the Zhongzheng Product Review. This seemed to be an extremely simple request, but to participate in the Zhongzheng Product Review in the name of a descendant of the Gu family was an extremely extravagant request.

Participating in the review and participating in the review in the name of a member of the Gu family are two completely different things. There is a world of difference.

"Hehehe, okay, okay. I didn't expect it. It turns out that you had this idea, and your ambition is not small. Li Hui, you really surprised me." Gu Qian laughed and shook his head slowly.

Li Hui frowned and said, "Dong Weng thinks my request is ridiculous? I just want to give myself a chance to get ahead. I may have a high or low background, but my ambitions are not. Even if Dong Weng thinks that I am wishful thinking, there is no need to make fun of me like this."

."

Gu Qian smiled and shook his head and said: "I'm not making fun of you, I'm just surprised. It turns out that you have high aspirations and great ambitions. This is a good thing. How could I make fun of a person with ambitions? You hope that in the name of a member of the Gu family

It’s a good idea to participate in the Zhongzheng review. However, I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do about it.”

Li Hui said in surprise: "What? Dong Weng refuses?"

Gu Qian shook his head and said: "No. It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't be the master. I just told you about the situation of my Gu family. I am neither the head of the family, nor can I influence the decisions of the family head and the others. You want me to make your decision

How is it possible to recommend participation in the review in the name of a member of the Gu family? Do you think the head of the family will agree?"

Li Hui was stunned and said with a wry smile: "What I'm saying is that I'm confused. I've forgotten this matter. This is indeed something that is difficult for others. Besides, I have offended them, so this is even more impossible."

Gu Qian said in a deep voice: "As long as you understand. It's not that I won't help you, but... I can't help you."

Li Hui sighed, with a look of disappointment on his face. It seemed that his wishful thinking would eventually come to nothing. He had thought very well before, winning the favor of the Gu family and gaining opportunities with the help of the Gu family. But who could have imagined such a result? Really.

Extremely disappointing.

Gu Qian looked at Li Hui's face full of disappointment and said solemnly: "However, there may be a way to work around it."

Li Hui rekindled hope and hurriedly asked: "What kind of workaround?"

Gu Qian said solemnly: "It is not feasible to recommend you to participate in the evaluation in the name of my Gu family's children, but maybe I can recommend you to participate in the Zhongzheng evaluation in my own name. I, the Dazhongzhengguan of Wu County, am the head of the Lu family, and I am the same as Lu Shijun.

If I make good friends, he will not refuse."

Li Hui said happily: "Is Dong Weng really willing to do this? Then Li Hui will be very grateful."

Gu Qian waved his hand and said: "Don't be too busy thanking me first. I must explain it clearly to you. Recommending you to participate in the review in my own name is very different from recommending you in the name of my descendant of the Gu family in Wu County. In this family background,

In one aspect, you will have no advantage at all. Do you understand what I mean?"

Of course Li Hui understood the difference between the two. Without his identity as a descendant of the Gu family in Wu County, participating in the Zhongzheng Criticism seemed to have little meaning. But now that the matter was over, he seemed to have no other choice.

"Dong Weng, I just want to have a chance to participate in the evaluation, and be recommended by Dong Weng to participate in the Zhongzheng evaluation. Li Hui is already grateful. In any case, it is better than no chance." Li Hui said solemnly.

"Very good. But I want to pour cold water on you again. Even if you participate in the Zhongzhengjuan, and your grade is not low-grade, your chances are slim. The court cannot accommodate the children of the aristocratic families. Everyone in the aristocratic families is

It's high quality, and if there is a chance, it will be theirs. When the time comes, I'm afraid you will be even more disappointed." Gu Qian said in a deep voice.

Li Hui felt cold in his heart. He knew that what Gu Qian said was true. Unless he was a member of the Gu family, it would be meaningless to participate in the Zhongzheng review.

Gu Qian looked at Li Hui lightly and said, "But now do you still want me to recommend you?"

Li Hui gritted his teeth, pondered for a moment and said, "Of course."

What Li Hui was thinking was that he had to give it a try no matter what. If there was really no way out, he would give up and think of other ways out. But he seemed unwilling to give up like this.

Li Hui recalled the time when he applied for a job in a large company after graduation. The academic qualifications of the people competing with him at that time were beyond his comparison, including those from prestigious universities, those who returned from overseas, those with dual degrees, and those studying for postgraduate degrees and Ph.D.s. He

When a bachelor's degree graduate applies for a job, everyone around him thinks he has no chance, so there is no need to be embarrassed.

This is Li Hui's character. He won't shed tears until he sees the coffin, he won't look back until he hits the wall, and he is extremely tenacious. Although he himself thought the chance was slim, he still applied for the job.

As a result, after several rounds, Li Hui was notified that he was hired. This incident gave Li Hui great encouragement and self-affirmation. Miracles still happen in this world.

The situation after time travel may not be comparable to the experience of later generations, but Li Hui still decided to give it a try. Miracles may not happen, but if he doesn't give it a try, how can he be willing to do so.

"Okay. Since you are very determined, I will help you this time. The rest will depend on your luck." Gu Qian said in a deep voice.

Li Hui kowtowed to the ground and said, "I would like to thank Dong Weng."

Gu Qian waved his hand and said: "The Zhongzheng Review is held every three years. This year it coincides with the meeting. It only starts in September. There are still more than two months from now. Before that, you can do your work with peace of mind. I will make my own arrangements then. You

What do you think?"

Li Hui said hurriedly: "Follow Dong Weng's order."

Gu Qian nodded and said, "Okay, I've helped you with your matter, now it's time to talk about how you can help me."

Li Hui was surprised and said: "What does Dong Weng mean?"

Gu Qian chuckled and said: "Don't you think that the world is a free feast? I have made a promise to you, and you should do something to repay me. Moreover, this thing is also good for you."

Li Hui said in a deep voice: "Please give me Dongweng's instructions."

Gu Qian stood up slowly, walked to the window and looked out of the window with his hands behind his hands, and said in a deep voice: "I am only focused on the family's plan. I swallow my anger and take the overall situation into consideration. However, I am considered to be an opportunity to take advantage of it, and I target him everywhere.

The younger generation doesn’t take me seriously anymore. In this case, I have to show my dignity. Besides, for the sake of my Gu family, I can’t let Xiaoxiao do anything wrong. I want to punish some people and let some people understand.

, I am not unaware of their activities, please let them restrain themselves."

Li Hui approached slowly and said softly: "Dong Weng, what should I do?"

Gu Qian turned his head, looked at Li Hui with twinkling eyes, and said in a deep voice: "There is no one trustworthy around me, but you are the only one I completely trust. I am checking all the accounts of the village, but what I checked is

It's clear that someone has embezzled the manor's financial materials behind my back. You only need to secretly find the evidence for me, and I can punish them severely accordingly. I want to beat a few dogs to let some people understand that I am not something they can take lightly and scheme with.

."

Li Hui was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hands and said solemnly: "As ordered!"



It was already late when Li Hui returned home from Gu's south house. In order to avoid the ugly aunt discovering the scars on his face, Li Hui specially wrapped his face with a cloth, entered the courtyard and dove into the room.

Chou Gu is not a fool. She saw Li Hui coming home with his face wrapped in a cloth on a hot day. Besides, it was too early to go home today. He used to come home in the evening, so he felt something was wrong.

So Chougu took the opportunity to deliver tea and entered the west wing. She happened to see Li Huizheng taking off his cloth and looking at the scars on his face in the bronze mirror. Chougu immediately screamed in fright.

"Oh my, what's going on? What's happening on your face? Who's bullying my little boy again? What's wrong with this?"

Li Hui quickly explained. Of course he couldn't tell the truth. He only said that he followed Dong Weng out to do errands, accidentally rolled off the mule cart, fell on his face and was injured.

The ugly aunt was not blind. She could see the faint red fingerprints and knew that the matter was definitely not what Li Hui said, so she wanted to get to the bottom of it. Li Hui refused to tell her, and asked her not to tell her mother and keep it a secret for herself, so as not to worry her mother.

The ugly aunt sighed and cursed the master's family for being vicious, but she also agreed to help cover it up. When the eldest lady came back in the evening, if she knew that Xiao Lang had been beaten in the master's house, she would be very distressed and sad. It would be better to hide it from her as much as possible.

After finally getting rid of the ugly aunt, Li Hui bolted the door and took off his shirt to inspect the injuries on his chest and abdomen. Gu Changna kicked him hard, causing severe pain in his chest and abdomen. He thought his ribs were broken for a while.

But now it seems that it is just a skin injury. The chest and abdomen are bruised and it looks very shocking.

Fortunately, I have been doing long-distance running every day for more than a month, and I have also started to exercise all over my body. Although it has only been more than a month, my physical fitness has indeed improved a lot. If Gu Chang had the previous physique, I am afraid that Gu Chang's kick today is his own

I won't be able to get out of bed for several days, and I might even break a few ribs.

After confirming that the internal organs and ribs were not injured, Li Hui bandaged it with a cloth strip. A layer of cloth strip was wrapped around the chest and abdomen. This did not actually have any therapeutic effect, but at least it gave him some psychological comfort.

After finishing this, Li Hui stood in the room with his upper body wrapped in cloth, not knowing what to do for a moment. He looked up and looked out the window. The sun was setting in the west and the shadows were long. The jujube trees in the yard were rustling in the wind.

The sound makes people feel a sense of loss and loneliness.
