    When he returned to his residence from Nanmen Street where the exam was announced, Li Yanqing felt that a big stone had fallen in his heart. Fortunately, he did not fail the exam and finally passed the Gongshi exam, but he was a little worried that he would not get a good ranking in the palace exam.

    ????????????????????????????????? If after the palace examination, he is born with the same Jinshi background, and he is afraid that it will not be his turn for a while.

    This year, more than 360 people will be selected for the test, which is more than twice the number last time.

    After passing the palace examination, the top three were awarded the title of Jinshi, and the number of people from the second-grade Jinshi accounted for one-third of the total, which means that the remaining two hundred or so people were all from the same Jinshi background.

    ??In addition to the direct conferment of officials by the first and third graders, if the second and third graders want to be appointed officials, they need to pass the imperial examination again. Based on the results before and after, the best ones will be selected to be trained in the Hanlin and be called shujishi.

    Although the imperial examination is very fair on the surface, it is limited to examinations. After the imperial examination, unless you are admitted to the Hanlin Academy, whether you can succeed in becoming an official or what official position you are assigned depends on whether you are a good person and whether you have enough connections.

    If there is a large official vacancy, as long as you keep your integrity and do not offend others, you can be assigned to an official position. The size of the official position depends on the situation. Generally, you start from the bottom, and there is no way to rise to the top in one step.

    If the official vacancy is not large and there are too many people waiting to fill the vacancy, people who are smooth and knowledgeable about management will have a greater chance of joining.

    ¡°Many people who are upright and don¡¯t understand turnover will have to wait for several years before joining the job even if they are awarded the title.

    Li Yanqing knew about this, but he just felt that he had nowhere to start, and the exam was not over yet, so it was hard to do anything, otherwise it would be suspected of bribery.

    The emperor at that time had no tolerance for fraud in imperial examinations for personal gain. Once discovered, no matter how big or small the official position was, he would be dismissed from his post, and serious cases could be imprisoned.

    Therefore, before the end of all exams, all relevant people will not accept gifts, and they are not very willing to meet the candidates. If someone is not good, they will even have their own future with them.

    It is a taboo to curry favor with officials before the exam is over and will only make people unhappy.

    Someone has done it before, and it didn¡¯t end well.

    Li Yanqing was thinking about finding ways to get around with relevant people in the Ministry of Civil Affairs after passing the imperial examination.

    With so many applicants this year, there is still a huge job vacancy, so it shouldn¡¯t be difficult to find a job.

    In comparison, Chen Junran¡¯s thinking was much simpler. He just wanted to try his best to do well in the palace examination. The worst he could do was to be born with the same Jinshi background and wait for dispatch. He was willing to be sent out to be a parent official.

    No matter how young the county magistrate is, he is always a seventh-grade official, and he is also an official on the imperial court's payroll. His annual salary is several hundred taels, his position is dozens of acres, plus several dozen kuomi, which is enough to make his wife and children live a comfortable life, and to serve the people.

    In Chen Junran¡¯s opinion, this is good.

    There were still a few days left before the palace examination, so Jin Yu called Dongqing to get to know some well-informed new tributes, inquire about the preferences and temperament of the two examiners, and also inquire about anecdotes about the emperor's style.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Are not just to sneak into the wrong ways, but just want to know the situation in the court and the emperor's personality in advance, so as not to be blind and violate taboos later.

    ¡°After all, the Imperial Examination only tests one topic: Current Affairs and Policy. The emperor sets the questions himself and is assisted by the examiner. If you don¡¯t understand the emperor¡¯s preferences and personality, it will be difficult to grasp the scale when answering the questions.

    As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. If the emperor is hot-tempered and domineering, and the opinions in the answer sheet are too contrary to the emperor's, the situation may be more misfortune than good.

    When delving into the national situation, Yang Tianxun gave him a handbook of the current emperor's political achievements after he ascended the throne. It is not difficult to see that the current emperor is a diligent and honest emperor. Compared with the previous two emperors, his political achievements are outstanding, but his temperament cannot be seen.

    When Jinyu and Dongqing asked about these things, they did not ask directly. Instead, they used the method of guiding the conversation to raise topics and collect useful information in the chat.

    After several days of dealing with the situation, Jin Yu pieced together the scattered information collected and pieced together the image of a smiling tiger with a ruthless personality, a domineering personality and a controlled appearance.

    At the moment, Dongqing and Dongqing looked at each other. This emperor seemed to be difficult to deal with.

    Li is the surname of the country. The current reigning emperor, Emperor Hua Yuan, whose name is Li Shuo and whose courtesy name is Zhenggang, is the fourth generation monarch of the Li Kingdom.

    ??According to convention, the emperor will appoint the eldest son as the crown prince. Some people do not follow the convention and appoint their favorite son or an outstanding prince as the crown prince.

    Generally speaking, it is more common practice and those who can do it.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    And the current emperor, Emperor Hua Yuan, ranks sixth among the former emperor's children. He is neither the eldest son nor the favorite son of the former emperor. He is inconspicuous among his many brothers and is not considered outstanding at all.

    When??

    Hanlin Bachelor¡¯s copywriting can be said to be very powerful, just like painting.

    Jin Yu read the general content and found that the king of this country was very polite and not as arrogant as the rumored messenger.

    The general meaning is that he heard that there are fire trees and silver flowers in Li State, and that wood can be used to make paper that can be written on, which is very convenient. He wants this person who can speak a little Central Plains dialect to learn these two technologies.

    To put it bluntly, Huoshuyinhua is gunpowder.

    It turns out that in this time and space, the four great inventions were also made by our descendants of Yan and Huang, and Jin Yu was inexplicably proud.

    In the history he learned, gunpowder was introduced to Europe in the 1340s, that is, during the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian army brought it when they conquered Europe.

    Papermaking was also introduced to Europe in the 13th century, but through the hands of the Arabs.

    Before the spread of papermaking in Europe, people all used parchment to write on. You can imagine how eager they were for cheap wooden paper.

    According to his calculations, the Li country was only equivalent to the Song Dynasty, and countries in Europe came over and said they wanted to learn this thing.

    "It's also my fault that the envoy sent by the king is not smart. Otherwise, these two techniques can be learned among the people, and they have to go to the emperor to yell at him."

    ?????????????????????????? If Emperor Hua Yuan loses his temper, and regardless of the reputation of a country of etiquette, regardless of whether he loses face or not, it would be interesting to just behead the envoy.

    Jinyu wrote the meaning of the letter on the examination paper and thought about it before giving the translation to Emperor Hua Yuan. He wondered if Emperor Hua Yuan would pass on the two skills to the envoy.

    " However, whether to pass it on or not is a matter of Emperor Hua Yuan's words. This decision can only affect the development of future generations.

    ¡°I don¡¯t know if the trajectory of this time and space will eventually be the same as the time and space he once lived in.

    I sighed in my heart, Emperor Hua Yuan controlled the whole country, he was just a small tribute and could not influence the changes of history.

    "It's a shame that everything will be a handful of loess in a hundred years. Living in the present is the most important thing. I only hope that Emperor Hua Yuan will adopt his suggestion of strongly encouraging the development of industry and commerce, and before the rise of foreign races, the Li country will be in a leading position in the world in all aspects.

    There was only one day for the imperial examination, and the paper was to be handed in at dusk. Seeing that only half of the sun could be seen from the palace wall, Jin Yu quickly confirmed that the signature was clear and the paper was correct, and waited for the examiner to collect the paper.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
