I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Candidates entered the arena one after another. These candidates were already very nervous. For many of them, the King of the North was already an unattainable existence.

They never thought that one day they would be able to come to the capital, or even enter the palace.

When they saw the king's capital, they were overwhelmed by this magnificent new city.

After arriving at the post house, I found that it was much cleaner and tidy than their home.

In order to motivate them, Liu Tan bad-heartedly asked them to take a tour of Shuofang City, not only to highlight how clean Shuofang City is today, but also to show them the mansion that Liu Tan specially reserved for future courtiers.

Although those mansions have only one frame, the majestic gates and high gate walls have made people yearn for it infinitely, not to mention the amazing area of ​​those mansions.

Some people even dared to ask the officials of the posthouse: "If we can pass the exam, can we also live in?"

The posthouse official smiled and said at that time: "It depends on His Highness's arrangement, but those who can pass the exam will be appointed officials. Even if they can't do it now, there are infinite possibilities in the future. And when I saw the champion at that time, I was afraid that I would It's time to salute."

Throughout the ages, people have pursued nothing more than a few things, among which money and status are the most attractive.

After Liu Tan's combination of punches, these students immediately wished to take the palace test the next day, and many of them even began to imagine how glorious it would be if they won the number one prize.

As a result, on the day of the imperial examination, everyone's mind was only nervous.

This kind of tension intensified a lot when I heard that the emperor presided over it today.

Some people were even so nervous that their complexions turned pale and their eyes straightened.

Many people basically floated into the palace, and Liu Tan could tell at a glance that several of them were probably out of luck.

In the winter, everyone is sweating nervously, and the hand holding the pen is shaking. How can this work?

Liu Tan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, his mental quality is still not good, it's just that after several rounds of examinations, the results are really not very good.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, he didn't expect to find useful talents the first time, so if he couldn't, he would take the exam a few more times.

Anyway, whether or not to take the exam is a matter of his own words. If there is a shortage of people, he will find an excuse to take it a few more times. If there is no shortage of people, he will follow the original plan every three years. Flexible exams are worth having.

Of course, there are some people who should not be so nervous, and Zhu Shanyi is unique among them.

It's not that he wasn't nervous, and he could see that he was a little cautious when saluting, but the nervousness was just right, so that he wouldn't lose his composure.

After all, he is the son of an official, and he has seen the world more or less.

Liu Tan glanced at Liu Che, and found that Liu Che's eyes were also on Zhu Shanzhang.

For a moment, Liu Tan couldn't help thinking, and asked Liu Che to put Zhu Shanzhang here for a few years. He didn't know if it would work. They can let people out.

And...Zhu Shanzhang's highest level was only a county guard, and he had never entered the center. Such a talent is not that important to Liu Che, right?

Just when Liu Tan was thinking wildly, the exam was finally over.

In order to take care of Liu Che, Liu Tan gave relatively short time. Anyway, there is nothing for these students to quote the classics these days, and with the level of these students in the northern border country, as long as they can write, it will be good. It is basically impossible to think about colorful articles.

After the end, these students will go as they came.

As soon as they left the palace gate, several of them were completely paralyzed on the ground.

Liu Tan smiled slightly after hearing this, and thought it was all right, at least it lasted until the end of the exam, and he didn't lose his dignity.

On the contrary, Liu Che was a little dissatisfied and said: "How can you be so useless if you are so inexperienced? Write down everyone and poke them down."

Liu Tan didn't refute, he had already handed over the power to Liu Che, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, anyway, the state of those people probably didn't answer the paper well.

However, in order to avoid problems, Liu Tan asked Miao Rui to secretly record the names of those people, and if he came across a well-written paper, he would keep it first.

Anyway, he has a lot of positions here, and Liu Che is at most the No. [-] pick. There are three of them, and some of the rest are tributes. They all have the opportunity to be officials, but the starting point is definitely not as good as those three.

It can be said that candidates who have reached this stage are actually winners in life.

Thirty examination papers must not be allowed to be read by Liu Che one by one.

Liu Che directly sent someone to screen out [-] exam papers, and then handed over the [-] exam papers to Liu Tan for selection, ten of them were selected, and Liu Che selected three from the rest.

Liu Tan was a little surprised that Liu Che would allow the officials he brought to intervene, but unexpectedly Liu Che said, "Let them get used to it."

Hearing this sentence, Liu Tan couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "Father, does the emperor mean that the whole big man will be promoted to take the exam in the future?"

Liu Che responded, turned his head to tease Liu Tan and asked, "Why are you happy? When the time comes, people from your northern border country want to go to Chang'an for the exam, and I'm afraid they don't want to stay here with you."

Liu Tan waved his hand very grandly: "I don't want to delay people's future, if they have the ability, they can go to the exam!"

Anyway, in Liu Tan's mind, things like vassal states will be banned sooner or later. Maybe he won't meet them in this life, but who knows what will happen in the future.

Liu Che treats him preferentially, which means that Liu Tan and Liu Ju have a good relationship, but if the relationship is not so good, do you think the prince would mind?

Moreover, the reduction of feudal vassals was originally the established policy of the Han Dynasty. Even the emperor and central officials with different political opinions stood on the same front on this point.

There is no emperor who does not want to centralize power, let alone why he recruits so many talents?Are you afraid that Liu Quyu has no handle?

Liu Che was amused by him, rubbed his head and said, "Let's go, I'm tired from sitting all morning, let's eat."

Isn't that right, the examinee wrote the examination paper for half an hour, and the two of them just sat there for half an hour, which was quite boring.

Liu Tan followed Liu Che out and said with a smile, "These people will brag a bit in the future."

Liu Che smiled slightly: "The people in Chang'an City have all seen me, and I haven't seen them bragging about anything."

"That's different. In the future, these people can call themselves the emperor's disciples when they go out. How is it different?"

Liu Che had a thought: "Student of the Son of Heaven?"

Liu Tan also fought hard to promote the imperial examination, and explained: "Yes, they are all selected by the father. The father is their benefactor, and they are naturally the disciples of the son of heaven."

Liu Che's footsteps paused, and his thoughts diverged for a moment. From the emperor's disciples, he thought of the court, and then thought of forming a party.

He turned to look at Liu Tan, and smiled meaningfully: "Your move is exquisite."
