“I haven’t seen you Prime Minister for a long time.”
Gao Lishi greeted Li Linfu and asked: "There has been a serious dispute between the DPRK and the Central Government recently over the ranking of Jinke, but the right prime minister has not come forward?"
“I am busy with national affairs such as urging farmers to plow the land for spring, and I don’t care about a child’s farce.”
“It’s true.” Gao Lishi smiled and nodded repeatedly.
Naturally, Li Linfu couldn't take care of the examination room. He was not finished with important matters such as equalizing land in the Tang Dynasty, government troops, and renting mediocre troops. How could he care about whether a child won the top prize? After all, there were still two or three children from poor families who passed the examination.
It’s not like Tianbao’s six-year-old wild sage.
When the emperor and his ministers met, even Li Longji praised him.
“The right Prime Minister is acting in a prudent manner.”
“The saints are over-reputed and it is said that ‘ruling a big country is like cooking small dishes’. Old ministers are walking on thin ice and do not dare to toss like young people."
Some people have been beaten too hard by Li Linfu because they bothered too much about the Spring Festival.
11. "You are so greedy that you don't even care about the face of the saint? There are no less qualified Jinshi, and you even have to get the title? After all, Juro is in charge of the prison. How can you not be allowed to make paper and publish books privately? Why bother to reach out?
On the surface? Come up with an explanation to satisfy the saint, and you will be better off later!"
In short, he took action and quickly put an end to the farce, and now only a small matter remains.
There are two ways to stop Xue Bai’s champion, there are two ways. "
It is a huge trouble to avoid such etiquette debates. Li Longji did not want to get involved in it. Before Li Linfu could finish speaking, he said lightly: "He is not Xue Ling's son."
“Then... in the official records of the Shaofu Supervisor, it is still recorded that Xue Pingzhao is the son of Xue Xiu. Should this be changed?”
Li Longji's face darkened and he said: "The one I am pardoning is Xue Bai, the orphan raised by Xue Xi. Don't you understand?
“I understand, Xue Bai exposed the evidence of Xue Xi’s treason and got rid of his humble status, so I will settle his residence for him.”
Li Linfu received the oral order and left, thinking all the time that Xue Bai could still get forgiveness from the saint because of the case involving three common people? Even though he found a reason, once this news was opened, it was inevitable that some people would think of him as the deposed prince.
It’s an extravagant hope to be rehabilitated.
…..
Jinwu Jingjie, all the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in Pingkangfang, the first thing Li Linfu did was to summon Xue Bai to see him.
He asked Lipa to go in person, "Master, did the child tell him to give him an identity?"
"Needless to say, if he doesn't come, let him do it."
This is because Da Xixun once invited Xue Bai to come, but he was rejected.
Li Linfu is narrow-minded and prone to anger. Of course, Xue Bai offended him many times, and even a narrow-minded person can be ventilated.
Unexpectedly, Xue Bai arrived after only half an hour. He said goodbye to Gao Shi, and the first thing he did was to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Li Linfu was reviewing official documents when he received the notice. He frowned and felt inexplicably unhappy.
“You must have called me here for the sake of my household registration?”
Li Linfu said "hmm" in a muffled voice.
Xue Bai said: "The prime minister of a country bothers me for such a trivial matter. I should thank the right prime minister. By the way, I also have to thank the right prime minister for appointing me as the number one scholar."
Speaking of which, Zhang Zan took action to prevent his future in order to vent his anger on the saint. Li Linfu insisted on nominating him as the number one scholar, but his purpose was to harm him.
People in the power arena only look at interests and are not influenced by emotions. Now that the result is in Xue Bai's favor, he doesn't care about people like Suo Douji who have been repeatedly frustrated. Instead, he seems to be quite graceful. "Don't gossip, the truth is."
That's all you need to do to establish a family. Complete edition 520.????" Li Linfu said: "You are neither Xue Lingzi nor Xue Xiuzi. Who are your parents? You can't just pop out of a stone."
“The Prime Minister has also seen Journey to the West?”
Li stood aside and couldn't help but be speechless. He secretly thought that Xue Bai was so brave and dared to joke in front of his grandfather.
It should be noted that Li Linfu has a strong spirit and seems to be more severe than the cheerful and cheerful saint. More than a year ago, he could easily decide Xue Bai's life or death.
But the eternal truth in the world is that those who are capable will be looked down upon by others. Xue Bai has now demonstrated his methods.
“I’ve never seen such vulgar things.” Li Linfu said in a business-like manner: “If you want to be appointed an official, there must be a way to do it.”
It should be noted that in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, even those from poor families could trace their ancestors.
But Xue Bai insisted that he could not remember it. In the end, Li Linfu had no choice but to write down in his book "He lost his peace when he was young, was lonely and helpless, and did not know his ancestral home" and handed it over to the Shaofu Supervisor.
After finishing this official matter, Li Linfu also gave Xue Bai a slap in the face.
"From now on, when you have an official status, you will be an upright official of the court. You will no longer play in the palace. If you have any affairs,
Go to the Prime Minister's Office to handle it."
“That would be disturbing the Prime Minister.”
The next thing is the real purpose of finding people today. Li took advantage of the situation and invited Xue Bai to drink and talk in the backyard VA
You can be a jester just because you have a holy connection and no family background, but you can’t get far in the serious officialdom. Why don’t you listen to the advice?”
“Therefore, I seek to be born as a Jinshi and walk step by step in a down-to-earth manner.”
“Solid?“
When Li Zha heard these two words, he thought that Xue Baida was too shameless. He only wanted to work hard and get to the top by virtue of his nepotism. How dare he be called down-to-earth?
Thinking about it carefully, Xue Bai sharpened his calligraphy articles, followed the rules of the examination room, and cultivated his talents conscientiously, and he was actually really solid in his official career.
The benefits of doing this are not obvious now. Others will say that he has poor personal ethics and a humble background, but the foundation has been laid firmly, and even the hidden dangers of his life experience have been solved by him.
It’s true that you are down-to-earth. You will be looking for an official position in the future. What are your considerations? "
“Juro, can you give me some advice?”
"Now you have just passed the exam, but have not yet passed the exam. You must first take the civil service examination." Li Dao: "If you become a Jinshi in Baishen, you will be exempted from taxation and service, and you will enter the ranks of 'high-quality households'.... Oh
, you are different, you went from a lowly person to a white person, to a well-dressed person in one day."
“It’s the support of the right minister.”
"In short, your name, family status, etc. must be submitted in a white document, and after being passed by the Ministry of Rites for examination, they are handed over to the Ministry of Personnel. From then on, you will be among the candidates selected by the Ministry of Personnel. This is "release".
From civilian to official."
As he spoke, Li became more cordial and said with a smile: "Although it is a chore, it is troublesome to do. When I help you take care of your family, I will do it for you."
“So, Laojuro has taken the trouble.”
"Between you and me, why should we be polite?" Li said: "But if you are a member of the civil service department, you are still just a 'selector.' You may not be able to get a single member in three to five years. Depending on your enterprising spirit, you will definitely not be able to do so."
Willing to wait."
“Shiro really knows me.” Xue Bai said, “But maybe I can find some recruits for me.”
After all, the salt officer is a secular official. You are a scholar, and you should be an official of the Qing Dynasty. Besides, if you want to take the Qingyun Road, you should solidify your foundation. In my opinion, the best way is to join the Ertuo Hong of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Ci examination, or calligraphy examination. If you succeed in a subject examination, you don't have to keep the selection, and you can immediately give up your choice. Search for xs520.

In fact, officials in the Tang Dynasty had to stand for election when their terms were up, and they could not get new official positions for three to five years. Many officials served as officials for a few years and then took a few years off, taking a break.
Receiving the rank of Jinshi only has the qualifications to confer an official position, but it does not mean that the status of a Jinshi is low. After being released, one has an official status, which is the same as that of other officials. Even the reputation of a Jinshi is higher. The problem is that the official position is too
There are too few, and there are too many people waiting to be conferred. Although the number of Jinshi is pitifully small, there are many people with family backgrounds. There are more wolves and less meat, making it extremely difficult to fill the gap.
Therefore, the Erduo Hongci Examination and the Calligraphy Examination of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are also important steps in the official career.
It is not about talent or reputation. It is about whether an official can manage court officials and pen clerks, and whether he can win the favor of the examiner of the Ministry of Education. Even if he passes these, the Ministry of Public Affairs will have to review him in the end.
Just imagine, even if a poor man with great talent and great reputation is in trouble, where can he find hundreds of dollars to support his staff? How can Zhongshu Province not be able to kill him?
The answer lies in Li's attentive eyes. "You and Du Wei are also good friends. You should know that he has moved to the third level in a row within half a year." Li said: "Don't worry, the Ministry of Personnel, Zhongshu Province,
I will take care of things with the left prime minister. If you are free, come over again tomorrow. Oh, call the Seventeenth Mother.
Hold a family banquet to congratulate you on winning the first prize."
"Speaking of this, the Qujiang Banquet is on March 3rd. I have been busy rehearsing the opera recently. Why don't we wait until then?" Xue Bai said: "After all, this opera can make the saint happy, and it also has the credit of the right minister.
"
“This...is true.
Li was determined to get married, but he was greedy for the credit of the opera, so his posture was unconsciously lowered, and he did not dare to force Xue Bai anymore.

What does Genuwen want from you? "Du Wulangwen is waiting outside the gate of Youxiang Mansion to confer an official." Xue Bai said: "By the way, remind me that I will be under his control from now on. Don't offend him too much. Du Wulang said:
"I just saw those two poor people following Da Xixun out of the Youxiang Mansion. Did you know that they were recruited as sons-in-law? One wanted to marry Yang Qixuan's cousin, and the other wanted to marry the concubine of the Cui family. At that time, they
This is not what I said when I bowed to my uncle Guo."
“We can’t let us steal all the limelight.”
“That’s right, one of your top picks is worth ten of them.” Du Wulang said: “I guess the next step is to win over you.”
“So you are so smart.”
“That’s not the case. The matchmaker who came to the No. 1 Scholar’s house has already crossed the threshold. How could I still not know?”
Xue Bai heard this and said, "Then let's go back to Du's house today."
“Hey, lately you have only been focusing on your imperial examination career, but you still have a lot of family affairs that you haven’t taken care of. It doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize Xue Ling.
Mrs. Liu and the Xue brothers and sisters always have to be comforted? It’s all me who comforts them. Now I keep Xue Ling in Changshou Mansion to look after me, while the others have moved to Xuanyangfang. I tell them that we will still be a family in the future...
Du Wulang Xuxu talked eloquently, and Xue Bai also listened carefully.
At the end, Xue Bai said: "It seems that you handled it well, so I feel relieved."
"But I got into trouble because of you." Du Wulang sighed and whispered: "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else. After you and Xue Ling cleared up the relationship, my grandfather felt a little dislike for Sanniang.
Now that I have a baby, I have to get married as soon as possible."
"If you are capable, your grandfather will naturally not be your master. I will talk to your uncle about this for you, don't worry."
"Yes, just say that although Third Sister is not your biological sister, she is better than your biological sister."
“You don’t need to teach me.”
As a result, Du Wulang was willing to go all the way south with Xue Bai to Du's house in Shengpingfang, and asked hopefully: "When do you think it is best for me to get married? Can it be in the middle of the year?"
“Since you have won the Ming Jing, why don’t you seek an official position?”
"I'm not in a hurry." Du Wulang said: "It would be great to start a family first, stay elected for a few years, and then become an official when you are more than 20 years old."
.++
"Time is not waiting for me. Since I can release myself as an official, what I want to do is to change my green robe into a red robe within five or six years, and then find a way out of the town."
Arrived at Du's house, Xue Bai did not hide his ambition from the Du sisters. He did not indulge in the joy of holding the top prize, and directly planned for his first official position.
“Originally, the sage promised that if I won the game, he would grant me a heavenly official position, but now he is still angry that I have deceived the king.
But it doesn’t matter, I can first consolidate my qualifications and follow the eight steps my mother said. When the saint calms down and remembers his promise,
You can accumulate a lot and make a lot of progress."
"This is exactly the reason." Du Miao said: "As soon as you become an official, you will be appointed by a saint. No matter how high you are, you can't exceed the eighth rank.
And if you reach the qualifications, from green robe to green robe, from green robe to red robe, the saint can save you ten years of life with just one opening."
She really understands Xue Bai's greed best. She must turn this bad thing into a good thing and maximize the benefits.
Hence, I plan to take part in the Gengbu Boxue Hongci Examination." Xue Bai said.
As he spoke, he glanced at Du and realized that although the two sisters came together, they had not yet fully reconciled.
"We have been prepared for this matter for a long time. Now that I am appointed as a meritorious doctor, I should be able to use it." Du Miaoxiao asked: "But before the official selection, we must first let the high-ranking family choose the son-in-law. I don't know.
Whose son-in-law is the No. 1 Scholar planning to be? "
Such a problem is difficult even for Xue Bai to deal with.
Fortunately, at this moment, Du Wulang's excited voice sounded in the courtyard: "Xue Bai, my grandpa is back, please tell him quickly!"
…..
It was night, and Du Youlin was drinking wine in high spirits and talking with Xue Bai about the glorious scenery of Jinshi.
Although they are only qualified to be awarded official posts and have good connections, they always look down on Jin Tu. But with more than twenty places a year, they are recognized by the world as the elite of the world. Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty are actually quite wild. "For example,
In the fifth year of Kaiyuan, there was a Jinshi Wang Lengran. After he passed the exam, he wrote to the imperial censor Gao Changyu. The letter probably said, "Gao Yushi, you have praised me, and I have regarded myself as your disciple, but you have passed by many times."
But Songcheng ignored me. I participated in the autumn festival hosted by you and you dismissed me. I have blamed you for a long time."
Du Youlin burped from wine and was a little drunk. He chuckled and continued: "Wang Lengran also said, 'There are countless people in the world. From the north of the river, they are just servants. They have great splendor. To the north of the Yellow River, he is the only one."
Jinshi, what an honor?
So he said to Gao Changyu, "I hope that the censor will be a servant this year and an official next year." If Gao Changyu forgets too many noble people, but one day he will stand side by side with him in the pavilion and look sideways at each other, he will not give it.
Good look...hahaha."
Xue Bai was amused and said: "The talented people of the Tang Dynasty are indeed crazy."
"You deserve it, you deserve it." Du Youlin drank another drink and said with a smile: "There are countless Jinshi in the world, but Xue Lang is too calm to be so arrogant. Otherwise, you have to say to me, 'I hope you will be a servant.
Wife, pay attention to the official."
The atmosphere in the courtyard was stagnant.
Du Zheng picked up the wine pot and was about to pour it for Du Youlin. Hearing this, he seemed to be shocked and his face turned pale.
“My grandpa is drunk and he talks nonsense.” Du said, “Mom, please help me go back and rest.”
"good."
"Xue Lang must be a little crazy." Du Youlin continued to wave his hands and laughed after being helped up: "If the No. 1 scholar is not a little crazy, how can there be any fun in the Qujiang Banquet?"
ˆˆNN
In the dead of night, in the backyard and outside Du Mei's boudoir, there was a gentle knock on the door.
“Sister, are you asleep?”
Du Mei was tossing and turning. She heard Du's voice and reluctantly opened the door, only to see her and Xue Bai standing there.
“It’s been a long night, and I think I haven’t slept yet.” Du Miao smiled and said, “I want to invite you to enjoy the flowers in the backyard together.”
“You’re thinking of me now?”
"Don't be angry, but thanks to you being angry because of my lies, he thought that he should confess to save his life. This time, my sister has made the most important contribution."
Du couldn't help but smile, quite tenderly. He finally reconciled with Du Miao.
The two sisters held hands and talked, then looked sideways at Xue Bai and started teasing.
“Auntie, how come the Number One Scholar remains silent?”
“The backyard is too close to the main house.”
My grandpa asked you to be crazy, are you this crazy?"
After all, Xue Bai didn't feel so comfortable coming to their boudoir, so he allowed Du to tease him a few words.
After closing the doors and windows, the wind started to pick up outside, and the teasing inside gradually turned into murmurs.
Crazy, crazy...so crazy...

Going down the fragrant steps, I walked lazily on the green moss. When I left the study, I walked towards the painting pavilion. The moon moved the flowers and shadows, and the beauty came. I learned how to steal jade and tried to steal fragrance. The dream soul flew into the balcony of Chu...
The next day, in the theater of Xue Zhai in Xuanyangfang, Niannu was singing opera lyrics. His voice was like an oriole coming out of the valley, so graceful and charming that Li Lilan nodded repeatedly.
“Li Lanzi, what do the following sentences mean?”
“Which sentence?“
“Orchid, musk and fragrant butterflies are enjoying themselves.”
“Well, that means... we’ll meet in the backyard,” Li Jilan said.
Nian Nu was not completely confused. He glanced at her and asked in a low voice: "I want to ask whether I should sing more coquettishly or...
Li Jilan turned around and saw Xue Bai arriving from a distance. He simply left Nian Nu and went to meet him. Wan Fu said, "Sir, you are finally willing to come."
“The Qujiang Banquet is coming soon, so it’s time to come.”
Xue Bai glanced at the theater and asked, "Are you confident of winning?"
"No." Li Jilan shook his head with some ambition and whispered: "The sage is the best in the world in melodies. To compete with the sage, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep well for many days. I didn't sleep all night last night, and just now
It was hard to get her to rest."
“Thank you for your hard work.”
"No, no." Li Jilan's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this, and he said, "I've heard all about it. It's really amazing that you saved the number one scholar...
She only knew how to praise Xue Bai blindly. On the contrary, the model girl pretending to be a matchmaker who knew better how to interact with men gave Xue Bai a scolding.
Xue Lang only cares about the number one scholar and refuses to come to see him often. If the servants lose at the Qujiang Banquet, it doesn’t matter. They are afraid of Xue Lang’s life-long event. "
“It doesn’t matter, as long as you have done your best.”
Xue Bai didn’t understand music, so he could only believe them.
As for winning or losing, with his unscrupulous temperament, he thinks it would be easier to bribe the referee.
