Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 171 171: Chaos in Xiaocheng (11) [Please vote for me]

Qi Shan sneered and added: "Do you want to say that the person who died is just an insignificant ant with a humble background? So you feel at ease that 'Qi Shan' should not care as much as you do? It's just an ant, and it won't matter in a few years anyway. Will forget..."

The county guard was forced to question and was speechless. After a while, he whispered: "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't mean to harm anyone, I just..."

What is he just?

He just wanted to find a future.

Who took that special test not for this?

Talking about serving the king, benefiting all people, and clarifying the world... These false and empty words are just words to deceive others and put gold on one's own face. Admit it, who enters an official career not for the sake of honoring his ancestors, nor for glory and wealth?

Is there anything wrong with him working hard for his own future?

Who doesn’t sharpen his head and work hard for the future?

Even if he really killed someone, was that his original intention?

At most, "I won't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me"!

He could plausibly say this to anyone else, and he was right! Others ridiculed him for being a villain, and he laughed at others for never being able to get ahead in life. The so-called "ridicule" was just the self-consolation of the incompetent waste. Do you need to take it to heart if it’s trash?

But facing Qi Shan, who was filled with murderous aura that was almost sticky, he dared to say that Qi Shan would make his head fall to the ground!

Even if he didn't say it, Qishan could see it.

Anger surged out: "Eight years - eight years later, you still think you are right, right? If you are right, then does Qishan, who has just passed his hair-cutting years, deserve what he deserves? He has done good deeds throughout his life and never done evil to others. What did you gain from your innocent heart?"

That man was only sixteen years old.

The scroll of a wonderful life has just been opened!

The county guard remained silent.

His silence made Qi Shan feel angry, and he couldn't help but punch him twice in the face, wishing he could smash the governor's brain into pulp.

"You are unkind to the people, unfaithful to the king, and unjust to your friends. I don't know how you can be so shameless, but you are not embarrassed to death!"

Shen·One Hundred Thousand Whys·Tang's focus is different.

"Is the special examination...an imperial examination?"

Now Qishan looks like a volcano waiting to erupt, a countdown bomb. After he had beaten enough, Shen Tang asked in a low voice.

The Sheriff was beaten until his gums became loose.

He licked his gums with his tongue, spit out a mouthful of blood foam, and half of his teeth lay in the blood foam, which shows that Qi Shan really didn't hold back.

"Haha - Tan Lezheng, is this your student?"

The Sheriff regained his composure.

Perhaps knowing that he was in a bad situation and that there was a high probability that he would not be able to see the sun tomorrow, the Sheriff's muscles relaxed and he turned over with difficulty. He leaned against the wall of the cave and used his strength to push himself up, half sitting up. He mocked: "Why doesn't Mr. Xiao Lang know this?"

The eyes are only short of writing "You came from the deep mountains and old forests".

Shen Tang sighed: "Tan Lezheng is Yuan Liang's real name?"

This word sounds pretty good.

Qi Shan was heartbroken for a moment, but quickly recovered.

"The name Tan Lexheng has been abandoned for a long time. Now there is only 'Qi Yuanliang'. Mr. Shen Xiaolang, remember not to call it wrong." Qi Shan was very stubborn about this and glared at the county guard with murderous intent, "It's normal. Under such circumstances, Xin Guo recruits scholars once every three years..."

Each state and county has a state official, who is responsible for presiding over the assessment within the state and county and selecting talents of the right age. Talents who have passed this test will gather in the capital with the recommendation documents, and then be selected and tested by the main official. The test results are related to whether they can become an official.

There are normal situations, and of course there are special situations.

If there is not enough manpower in the court, but the time is not up to the three-year selection, an additional test will be added as appropriate in the middle, which is a special test.

Speaking of "special examination", we have to mention that this selection method has a special rule - to be "fair and impartial" and to discover talents as much as possible. There are two major sources of candidates. One is recommended by the state Zhongzheng official. One was recommended by a celebrity in the state.

Recommendation for state officials is an "official" channel, and all qualified scribes can participate. The only drawback is that the first step is strict, and four hundred people can be recommended at a time.

The celebrities in this state belong to the "folk". In theory, they are promoted on a merit-based basis. Talent is more valued. Literary grades and family backgrounds can be relaxed as appropriate. There are also a hundred places in the hands of this group of people.

If you get the one hundred places, you don't need to go through the preliminary examination of the state Zhongzheng official, and you can go to the capital. That teacher of Qishan is a famous scholar in this state, and he has three places in his hand!

Originally, such precious quotas were not available to Qishan, but these quotas are not fixed, and will increase or decrease according to the performance of the person recommended by the celebrity.

If the number of places increases, it means that this famous person "does not avoid relatives and enemies in promoting talents", is "honest and self-disciplined", "fair and virtuous", and "deserves his reputation". The recommended talents are indeed 24K talents.

But if the number of places is reduced, or even deprived of recommendation qualifications, it means that this famous person is "pretending to benefit the public," "catching for fame," "it is hard to live up to his reputation," and has been bribed by people with vulgar and unbearable things, so he recommended this person. Things come up and the reputation is ruined.

What is a "celebrity"?

In layman's terms, it's a famous person.

In a sense, reputation is the foundation of their existence. No matter how bad the inside is, the surface work must be done properly.

The teacher originally wanted to choose two nephews and disciples from the clan to "pray for good", but the older one was too disappointing and not good enough. The teacher hesitated several times, fearing that it would affect the number of nominations for the next recommendation, so he changed people cruelly and asked the nephew of that family to wait for the next time.

Anyway, there is only one year left before the next normal recruitment. This year, make more progress and work harder. I don’t expect this nephew to perform well, at least don’t drag down the average level.

Qishan introduced it in detail, and Shen Tang automatically replaced it in his mind - taking a scholar once every three years is equivalent to the "otherworldly version of the imperial examination", special examination is equivalent to "enke", and celebrity recommendation is similar to a direct promotion?

She only has one question left at this moment——

"The literary test is not a martial arts test, so why did people die?"

Could it be that there is too much pressure?

Shen Tang thought about it in his mind.

Or was it related to an unknown conspiracy, in which the "rightful Lord praying for good" was involved and was killed and silenced?

Looking closely at Qishan's expression, it seems that he is neither of the two.

"Who told you it was just a literary test?"

Shen Tang: "..."

Qi Shan said: "Under normal circumstances nothing will happen..."

Although the Xin Kingdom has been destroyed, Shen Xiaolangjun will not be able to use this knowledge no matter how much he knows. Qishan still helped her to learn the truth - there are three assessment items, family background, conduct and talent, and the most important literary level. The first and third are both the most intuitive.

Qishan: "The problem lies in the second item of 'character ability'."

The assessment method is not as Shen Tang thought, setting up a large venue, where all the students gather together, and the Zhongzheng official sets questions and they answer them, nor is it simply writing policy articles.

That was a magical way that Shen Tang had never thought of.
