Chapter 634 Banquet
"You are a Hanlin editor. If you are transferred to the seventh rank, you must at least be a county magistrate. If possible, you can still work hard!"
Sun Zhao said lightly.
"I don't know what the teacher wants?" Xiao Shanwen asked with his head down.
"In other words, you can go to the county, from the sixth rank, or you can go to the state to be a sixth rank judge!"
"I wonder what your intentions are?" Sun Zhao said inquiringly.
"Students do not want to be secondary officials. Although all the officials are one level higher, students still want to go to the local area to be the magistrate, be a people-friendly official, and understand the sufferings of the people!"
Xiao Shanwen's heart flashed instantly. Do you still have to think about it? Although the official rank is high, if he is a second-rank officer, and the judge is only a judge, he is still a local supervisor, where is there any convenient way for the chief official to come and has great power?
"You are right to think this way!" Sun Zhao smiled and said, "Although the prefecture magistrate is one level higher than the magistrate and is promoted faster, he has a much narrower vision and is more restrictive in his work. It is better to be a minister in the hall. Although everything is complicated, if you manage it well, with your Jinshi, you can enter the prefecture in a few years!"
"It is not convenient to disclose the specific information to you, but it must be a county!"
"Students know!" Xiao Shanwen nodded quickly.
"Go, I will arrange it for your brother. If you don't have enough experience, you have to recruit staff to assist you. Let's make arrangements for you!"
Watching him leave, Sun Zhao fell into thinking.
In the first year of Shenwu, two hundred Jinshi were admitted, but only a dozen people who entered the Hanlin Academy were worthy of attention. Especially Xiao Shanwen, who has a wealth of wealth, is cheerful and generous, and is flattering to everyone, and is safe in his work. However, he is a little older, over thirty years old, and is only ten years younger than himself.
"However, after traveling to the place for more than ten years, you can return to the court. Not to mention entering the Political Affairs Hall, you can still do it if you just say that you are a minister!"
Sun Zhao touched his beard and felt that his future was unlimited.
After leaving Sun's mansion, Xiao Shanwen felt that Sun's husband was extremely appropriate in his behavior and felt warm in his heart. He quickly took the car and returned home.
"Brother--" younger brother Xiao Congwen came up eagerly.
"I'm fine!" Xiao Shanwen shook his head and said, "Your matter has been arranged, and Xichuan will definitely not be able to go there. Besides, my husband also said clearly that although Xichuan is rich, it is not dangerous. The Song army can repeat it at any time. If you arrange it, it may be the same Jinshi!"
"If you take the Jinshi exam, you will still have the best grades!" Xiao Congwen was a little angry and wondered: "We will take the exam together, why should we suffer this crime when we are with the Jinshi?"
"Everyone has different levels, let alone Jinshi!" Xiao Shanwen was open-minded. He was in his thirties and had a rich life experience. He knew more than his younger brother who had just been thirty years old: "Although Shu is more dangerous, it is a good opportunity for those with Jinshi!"
"You know, they were either county magistrates or county magistrates and other assistants. Now they can have an official in Xichuan, and they will be promoted in the future, so they will be no less than you and me!"
"I heard that the court has issued an order that the fifth rank and under the 5th rank must be retired at the age of fifty. It's a bit harsh!" Xiao Congwen said.
"It's said that if you pass the 50th young Jinshi, if you pass the Jinshi, you will not be able to live in your old age directly? It's inappropriate!"
"Sharp? Second brother, you have to understand that our Tang Dynasty has destroyed several countries in a row, regardless of the local area, the central government alone will have nearly a thousand people."
Xiao Shanwen received the imperial edict for many days and knew a lot. He shook his head and said, "To say this, there are seventeen or eighteen people just for the Minister of the Shang Dynasty. If you don't find a reason to depose, how can you have so many official positions? It's better to let them retire, and at least you can receive half of their salary!"
"Besides, do you think there will be fifty Jinshi in the future?"
"Is it?"
"Yes, I have heard that those who are over forty years old will be unable to get over the words of the saints and prime ministers!"
When Xiao Congwen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "This is also a way. When he is old, he will inevitably lose his energy and eat a place without any food!"
"Your and my official positions are also from it!"
The two brothers were having a good chat here. At this time, someone suddenly came to visit and asked him that it was Tang Fu, the top scholar in the first year of Shenwu, who was also a Hanlin editor.
Xiao Shanwen also admired this person's talent, especially when he passed the Jinshi exam at the age of 25, which is really surprising, not to mention that he is still a poor family.
Now that he is visiting rashly, the Xiao brothers quickly change into clothes and welcome them in.
"I'm here to visit, I hope I'll forgive you!"
Tang Fu has a good look and a slender figure. Although his clothes are a little dull, he has a fragrance of books, which makes people feel quite fond of.
"The top scholar is here. The mansion is so bright!" Xiao Shanwen invited him to sit down and asked someone to put tea in it. Then he said with a smile.
"Xiao Hanlin is out of the way. We are in the same class as the same list, so we must be closer!"
The two chatted and exchanged greetings for a few words, and then they got to the point.
"This time the political observation is over, I wonder where Brother Xiao is released?" Tang Fu asked with great interest.
"I am just a seventh-grade Hanlin, how can I know this?" Xiao Shanwen smiled and shook his head, looked at Tang Fu's confident face, and said, "It's nothing more than a county magistrate!"
"It must be a good place!" Tang Fu exclaimed: "I am not the same. I originally wanted to hear that Your Majesty chose to be a deposed envoy, and I even recommended myself, but it was a word No, so I had to go to the place!"
The deposed envoy is low and has a weight. Although the rank is not limited, Hanlin can also be regarded as a Hanlin, but how can it be so easy?
Xiao Shanwen said: "I am afraid that all the deposed envoys will be appointed by the censor, and we, as a Hanlin, will still have no share!"
"That's the case, I'm in love!" Tang Fu smiled, and then said:
"Since we became a Jinshi in the first year of Shenwu, we have been more than two years now, and the political observation is complicated. We have more than 200 people on the list, but we have never gathered!"
"We two initiated and gathered again. After all, if the Ministry of Personnel reports and everyone goes to work, they will never have time. It is such a big fate to be together in Jinshi!"
After hearing this suggestion, Xiao Shanwen suddenly thought of forming a party for personal gain, but then he thought again, there were not so many parties, it was nothing more than mutual care between the same subjects.
After all, they are all Jinshi on the same list, and most of them are from poor families and have no support in the court, so the same subject is the biggest relationship, and it is very convenient to take care of each other.
"Very good!" Xiao Shanwen said with a smile: "With you, the top scholar, initiated it personally, I'm afraid everyone will come, so I'll benefit from it!"
"Where is Xiao Hanlin's reputation, who among the six ministries will nod and praise him?"
Then, Tang Fu left with a smile.
"Brother, this Tang Yingtou's behavior should not be underestimated!" Xiao Congwen said.
Chapter completed!
