Chapter 184 Unraveling Yuan (3)

Since the day of the self-examination, the examiners have been confined in the ritual courtyard.
Marking is the most important part of it. From the examiner to the transcription, no communication with the outside world is allowed until the results are released.

However, all limitations are themselves limitations.

The gatekeeper astromancer, at best, used the detection quasar array to check whether other astromancers broke into the courtyard.But the effect is really not flattering.

Cheng Jinzhou didn't need to ask anyone for help, he swaggered down from the patio, talked to the astrologer on duty, and then found Sun Gongyou, a famous literary figure.The world of star warlocks is a circle, famous people, everyone will know.

As for the two people meeting, Sun Gongyou also did not look surprised at all.The so-called celebrity, rich experience is the biggest reliance, during his years as an examiner, he has seen many disciples, and he has seen countless bribes.

Cheng Jinzhou, on the other hand, put on a pure smile, but said a little jerky: "Master Sun, I am Cheng Jinzhou who is taking the exam this time."

Sun Gongyou looked like an interesting old man from the outside, and said with a smile: "If it wasn't an examinee, I'm afraid he wouldn't have come to see me."

In fact, the old man's life goal and life interest have nothing to do with whether he accepts bribes or not.Apart from the fact that the celebrity is destined to bully the rookie, he is not really bad at all.

Cheng Jinzhou smiled awkwardly. In his previous life, he often cheated, but he didn't have much chance to bribe others. If necessary, it was probably done by his parents. Two well-known professors usually use the way of indebtedness.

Using the simplest and most direct method, Cheng Jinzhou put the artwork he brought on the table in a very unartistic way and said, "I heard that you are quite bored in the ritual courtyard, so I will bring you a piece of calligraphy and painting for you to play with."

Sun Gongyou was old, but his hands were not soft. He took the scroll and said with a smile: "It's really boring to always read the exam papers."

He did not open it first, but gently stroked the scroll with his thin hands, as if caressing a beautiful woman. After a moment, he took a long breath and said with a smile: "It is indeed paper from the Xuanwu Dynasty, it is soft and tough. "

Cheng Jinzhou found a place to sit down and let the old man toss about.He is now considered a basic type of rich and powerful, and after the initial strangeness passed, he calmed down.As long as the old man is not an upright ideal person, it is only a matter of difficulty for him to achieve his goal.

A province of Jieyuan, within a hundred years, the number is much larger than that of star warlocks, let alone the value issue.

Sun Gongyou handed the scroll to Cheng Jinzhou with his right hand, and he slowly unfolded it to the left.

He was serious, from right to left, he saw the seal all the way, and then he let out a long breath and said, "Li Wei's painting?"

Cheng Jinzhou nodded and said: "The new rain is coming from the empty mountain."

I thought to myself that it really is an ancient official. If it is placed in the 21st century, who would take it seriously?They trust the briber more than their wives.

Sun Gongyou looked at it again with a smile. Since he declared that he likes Li Wei's works 20 years ago, until today, the paintings of Li Wei accumulated in his hands are probably more than those preserved by the artist himself. Wind strokes can be seen at a glance.

In fact, it is not unheard of that some of Li Wei's paintings on the market were sold by Sun Gongyou again, and then bought and given away by gift givers.

In some famous periods in history, due to repeated purchases and sales, some serious gentlemen used the lessons twice, making people dumbfounded.

The old man was so patient that Cheng Jinzhou couldn't bear it anymore and said directly: "I came here this time to get a Jie Yuan. Do you think it's okay?"

He was already an astrologist, even if the imperial court brought up another major case in the examination room, he would not be afraid at all.

Sun Gongyou was taken aback for a moment, the movements of his hands slowed down, and hesitantly said: "Xie Yuan."

No. 1 always attracts attention. This guy originally thought that Cheng Jinzhou just wanted to win the first place and play with the scrolls to have fun and relax, but now he felt that Li Wei's paintings were a bit hot.

In his opinion, giving a 13-year-old astrologer Jieyuan is tantamount to putting himself on fire, so hesitating is needless to say.

In other words, if it wasn't for Cheng Jinzhou's status as an astromancer, he would have refused directly.

Cheng Jinzhou couldn't let him regret it, he stood up and said: "Master Sun, if you can get Xie Yuan, it's just an honor to get Xie Yuan. But I have already found the Ministry of Officials, and I am going to work in Beijing. If you have time, you might as well Check out the article below."

He also put the transcribed paper on the table.

In the appointment and dismissal sequence of officials in Daxia, Jinshi were directly appointed as officials. There was no need to line up, no need to wait, and most of the time there was no need to stuff money.Gentlemen with a Jinshi background or above do not need to care about whether they have a position. There are many high-ranking and noble positions waiting for them, including in the palace.Normally, if you have the title of Jinshi and the third grade, you should not make any major political mistakes in your life. The country will even arrange everything for you. For them, the world is utopian and the country is communist.

In contrast, those with the same background as Jinshi, that is, top three Jinshi, are much more miserable.If there is no position in the central government and they do not know how to operate, then it is natural to put them in the provinces. This is also the main means for the central government to penetrate into the central government.

At the Juren level, although they can serve as officials, they are subject to many restrictions.First of all, it was impossible to stay in the central agency in the capital, and secondly, they had to queue up in the provinces - feudal societies such as Bactria had very few officials.

From the county magistrate down, there are two assistant officials: the chief secretary and the county captain, followed by a low-ranking Dianshi, who can not even be said to be an official.In addition, there are about 30 to 100 officials in Liucaozhong.In other words, if all cadres below the division level are removed hundreds of years later, the number of officials at the township level will be the same.

As for what Juren can and is willing to do, each county has only two or three choices. Coupled with the location of the state and county, the waiting time is long, and the pain of being cut in line can be imagined.

Of course, Cheng Jinzhou does not mention his identity as an astrologer, but he has the relationship with the head of the official department, so things will go much smoother

To see him do so much preparation.Sun Gongyou could only pick up the article on the table and read it, but left Li Wei's "New Rain in the Empty Mountain" aside, thinking it was extremely hot.

After a long time, he bared his teeth and said, "The article is very good."

"Then it's settled?" Cheng Jinzhou was overjoyed.

Sun Gongyou quickly shook his head again and said: "It's a pity that Xie Yuan has already been determined by default. If Master Astrology wants to, he is afraid to open the joints himself."

He began to use the title of Master Star Warlock.

Cheng Jinzhou frowned and said, "Who wants it?"

"The son of the prince of Dongshan, Lu Anping." After Sun Gongyou finished speaking, he also looked relaxed.
