Chapter 1565 Your ancestral grave is really smoking

After Ma Xi passed the imperial examination, Ma Hongzhong was so excited that he wanted to go home and have a feast with his guests, but Ma Xi had a lot of things to do. On the one hand, the Imperial College needed a summary and farewell;

Among them, the selection of officials is the most important.It depends not only on your appearance, but also on whether you have the ability to be an official.

If the length is frightening, or if it is uncomfortable to watch, under normal circumstances, the officials in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs will tactfully persuade: either find you a place with few people, or you should... go home!

If you are a stupefied young man, if you open your mouth and want to reform the Tang Dynasty, but if you keep your mouth shut, the officials of the official department will praise you in front of your face, saying that you are full of vigor, and then throw you to some place where you don’t want to shit. Until it wears you down without any vigor.

Officialdom emphasizes the word "grinding", and this "milling" contains the blood and tears of many people.

After all, Ma Hongzhong couldn't bear his temper, Pegasus went home to pay homage to his ancestors, and then showed off with great fanfare.

In the Imperial College, Ma Xi was saying goodbye to his classmates.

The students cherished the time when they were about to part, and many of them shed tears.When parting, many people left the address of their hometown.

The officialdom is ruthless, no one knows where he will drift to in the future, maybe this parting will be forever.

"Quick, start now." Someone shouted outside.

Ma Xi and his classmates rushed out of the classroom, gathering crowds, and assembled on the playground.

On the stage, everyone saw the head teacher Ning Yayun and Si Ye An Ziyu, but who is that person surrounded by the two?
"It's Your Majesty!"

Someone cheered.

Being able to see the emperor at this time means that the background of the Guozijian is hard.As long as everyone doesn't take the wrong path, sooner or later they will be successful.

The fiery atmosphere was intoxicating, and Ma Xi saw the boy again.

The boy stood behind the crowd, smiling broadly.

This guy is good at messing around, Ma Xi smiled, and planned to find the boy later, leave his address, and contact him in the future.

Ning Yayun was the first to speak. He mentioned the history of Guozijian and the fine traditions of this school. He hoped that everyone can apply what they have learned in the future, and serve the Tang Dynasty and the king...

complete!

The simple and neat speech of the old handsome Guo won the welcome of the students.

For young people of this age, the most disgusting thing is long texts, and the most disgusting thing is long-term preaching, so in the eyes of many people, the head teacher who rarely appears on weekdays becomes a caring person.

Below is the emperor.

The emperor looked at these students and said, "When I left Yuanzhou, I never thought of being able to enter the Imperial College. At that time, I was thinking that if I could enter a primary school in Chang'an, it would be smoke from the ancestral grave."

Ancestral graves... Everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Later, by chance, I was able to study in the Imperial College. I will never forget those years in my life."

During those years, he was quite confused, and it was the Imperial College that accommodated him, like a harbor, allowing him to have a quiet place to stay when he was lost.

"Why do you come to study? Most of them want to seek fame. In fact, I did the same at the beginning."

The emperor's words shortened the distance with the students in one fell swoop.

"I dream of becoming an official, a high-ranking official, and then return to my hometown in good clothes, so that the small officials in my hometown will greet me with smiles, and my elders will be full of praise."

This is everyone's dream.

"My official career started in Chang'an, and I was just a bad person at the beginning."

This starting point is much lower than the students who have passed the imperial examination.

"And you are an official at the same time. But I don't envy you, why? Because it was that period of time that allowed me to see the bottom of the Tang Dynasty. I saw the real livelihood of the people!"

"I hope that after you become an official, you will not be arrogant, you will bend your waist, you will go to the market more often, you will go to the fields more, and you will keep the people in your heart..."

"Some people say that this Great Tang is already perfect. Look, there are no opponents in the north, the southern Zhou bows its head, the east is unified, and the west is not far away. So, what else can we do?"

These words sounded like they were praising the emperor... Everyone thought of the emperor's experience of conquering the world.

"But I want to tell you, wait, this world is very big."

The emperor said: "In the south is the sea. On the sea, there are countless lands and countries. In the west, the Luoluo country is waiting for the battle. It is uncertain when it will come.

Under the Tang Dynasty, which seems to be supposed to be peaceful by singing and dancing, it is actually still in crisis.

Internally, I need countless newcomers to stir up this officialdom, to break up those small circles, to shake up the turbid and promote the clean.

Externally, I need countless people to come out of the Great Tang, to promote the culture of the Great Tang, to explore what is beyond the Great Tang..."

Ma Xi was a little excited, and felt that this mission was tailor-made for him.

But then he thought of his father again.

He is the eldest son in the family, and his father has given him great hope. If he leaves, what will happen to his father?
"I hope that when you meet again after many years, you can say frankly that my life is a life of fighting for the Great Tang. In this way, I will live up to this life!"

The emperor's words were also very short. He described a blueprint for the students and guided the direction.

When Ma Xi saw the flushed faces of those classmates, someone immediately raised their hands, "I would like to go to Tang Dynasty!"

When it came out of Datang, it became a hit instantly.

Ma Xi also wants to go, but unfortunately, he needs to meet the standards in all abilities before he can sign up.

What cultivation, what traditional knowledge...

I don't know how to die without cultivation base.

If you don't understand traditional knowledge, why don't you teach the emperor's knowledge when you go out?

Those knowledge are taboo and must not be taught to others.

As a result, those students who did not pass the imperial examination were favored instead.

Ma Xi was very sorry.

That day, he and some of his good classmates got drunk, and the next day he had a splitting headache and remembered that he was going to the official department today.

He hurriedly washed up, before he had time to have breakfast in the Imperial College, he hurriedly bought a piece of mustard pancake outside, and trotted while eating.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Officials, he was queued at the back. According to the order, he basically had to wait for more than an hour.

Ma Xi yawned, but didn't feel sleepy.

He looked at everything around him curiously.

"Ma Xi!"

"exist!"

Ma Hongzhong was just about to enter Chang'an City at this moment... He came late yesterday, the gates of the city were closed, so he could only rest overnight outside the city.After entering the city, he hurried to the official department.

Ma Xi followed the little official into the duty room.

"sit."

The officials in charge of his election looked rather strict, and Ma Xi didn't know what to do.

"Where is your home?"

"From Xianyang."

"How many people are there in the family?"

These conditions have already been filled out once when the department reported the registration, and asking again now is to observe Ma Xi through questioning.

After some questioning and answering, the official said: "Now Your Majesty advocates doing things quickly, and the old thing of delaying the selection of officials is gone. Besides, His Majesty advocates that officials who have just taken office go to tough places to hone their skills... The old man sees that you are quite strong, and there is a vacancy in Xijiang, would you like to go?"

Ma Xi thought of the news that his father had inquired about: the official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs asked you if you would like to go, but in fact it was almost confirmed.Don't say you don't want to, you will only get a bad review if you say it.

Ma Xi couldn't help being a little disappointed when he thought of going to Xijiang.

"willing!"

"Hehe!" The official smiled, "Young man, full of vigor, is enviable!"

He put a tick next to Ma Xi's name, "So, go ahead and come back later."

"Yes!"

At this time, a small official came in, walked up to the official, leaned over and said a few words.

The official looked up and said to Ma Xi who was walking outside the door: "Ma Xi, wait!"

Ma Xi felt a little lost, turned around and came in again.

The official smiled and said, "By the way, I heard that you are the eldest son in the family?"

"Yes."

Are these not all within your grasp?
Ma Xi cursed.

The official said: "Let's take a look again..." He looked down at Ma Xi's materials, and said, "He is quite outstanding in the Imperial College. He respects his teachers and loves his classmates. He also does well in his studies. This is a good seedling!"

How did this change again?

Ma Xi was confused and only knew how to laugh.

The official looked up at him and said kindly, "Do you want to stay in Guanzhong? No, stay in Chang'an."

"Yes." Of course Ma Xi wanted to.Since he couldn't go outside Datang, he could still take advantage of Xiu Mu's opportunity to go home and visit his relatives while staying in Chang'an.And it is also beneficial for family members to visit themselves.

"So, here's a place just right for you."

"I don't know where it is?" Ma Xi smiled apologetically, thinking that it wasn't something like guarding the warehouse.

"East Palace!"

……

Ma Xi walked out of the official department in a daze.

"Dalang!"

"Dalang!"

As soon as Ma Hongzhong arrived, he saw his distraught son, and he couldn't help regretting, "Where did this go? But where is the Shegu people? If I knew I was a father, I wouldn't let you take the imperial examination, my son..."

Ma Xi looked at him with straight eyes, "Aye, pinch me."

"Really pinch?"

"Strength!"

"Ow!"

……

"The ancestral grave is smoking."

Ma Hongzhong is going crazy.

Where is the East Palace?
The place of the future emperor.

Young people go out to serve in the East Palace, which is another kind of Conglong.

"What position?"

Ma Hongzhong asked.

"Correct characters of the Department of Economics and Economics."

“Great location!”

Ma Hongzhong was ecstatic again.

Later, he hosted a banquet for several business partners in Chang'an. When he announced his son's official position solemnly, Shang Yue sighed: "Your ancestral grave is really smoking!"

……

"Hurry up and arrange!"

Yang Xin explained to Sun Yan, "The old man's eyelids are constantly twitching recently, and he feels uneasy."

"Which eye?" Sun Yan asked.

"Left eye!"

"Send it!"

……

On the official road, the three guards in Jinyi were riding three horses, galloping.

"Give Way!"

When passing the checkpoint, a person in front flew over the sign, and the sergeant at the checkpoint was shocked when he saw it, "It's Jinyiwei."

"Pull the rejection horse!"

"drive!"

Three people and nine riders, all the way!
"Where are you going in such a crazy hurry?"

……

In the palace, Han Shitou and Yiniang are investigating.

They mainly traced the old people back then, especially the people around Emperor Xuande and Empress Wu.

……

A team of Jinyiwei appeared in Wang Mo's hometown.

Two days later, they found nothing.

The old thief came and he took over the matter.

"Investigate from the corners!" The old thief asked the relatives and friends of the Wang family, and even the seven aunts and eight wives to inquire about the news.

It didn't take long before they got an important piece of news: Wang Mo had a child before entering the palace, and this matter was revealed by a midwife.

The old thief grinned and said, "Yeah, I caught your tail!"
