Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination

Chapter 67: Inauguration

The footsteps are quiet.

A slender hand propped up an oil-paper umbrella, and the sleeves showed a little white wrist.

The oil umbrella slowly lifted, revealing a pair of star-like eyes.

"I thought that my elder brother was really angry with me." Pei Yunxiao's eyes wandered, carrying an anger that he hadn't even noticed.

Tang Hang walked over, put away the umbrella for her, and brushed the rain on her cloak: "You know I won't be angry, just like I only need a look to know what you are going to do."

Although he had to admit, it was just a cold look at Pei Yunxiao in front of the restaurant, which really made him a little bit uncomfortable inexplicably.

Looking at Pei Yunxiao's eyes with two crescent moons at the moment, Tang Heng felt that it was better to do this. Only herself was in her eyes.

"Why didn't brother tell them clearly?" Pei Yunxiao looked at the direction where Xie Ying had left.

Tang Heng didn't care much: "I don't say it, don't they choose to believe you too?"

Pei Yunxiao was touched: "Yes."

Perhaps this is the confidant. There is no need to explain the reason for doing things, even if they don't know their intentions, they are still willing to believe that she has difficulties.

With the rain rippling, Pei Yunxiao stood beside Tang Hang, as if he could talk attentively without speaking.

"Brother will blame me, will you insist on letting you go to Suizhou?"

"I understand your intentions." Tang Hang smiled: "Your choice is my choice."

Suddenly unquenchable sadness surged in Pei Yunxiao's heart. She raised her head and looked for Tang Heng's gaze: "But Suizhou is the border after all, brother must... take care!"

Tang Heng's eyes flashed, thinking that he was dazzled, and then he looked closely. It turned out that Pei Yunxiao's eyes really turned red, revealing a few moments of dampness.

"I will." He promised.

Pei Yunxiao turned his head and swallowed his tears, inexplicably remembering a phrase he had read: "I came to the beginning of spring, and I went to the old spring. Changting Road, generally fragrant grass, only return to the time...

Brother, I will wait for you and come back soon! "

"Has Xiaodi heard a story?" Tang Heng smiled and looked at her.

"what?"

"There are two people living on the north and south sides of a mountain. They communicate all day long, citing each other as confidants, but they never meet."

"One day, they all wanted to climb the mountain and meet each other. So the two packed up and set off on the journey."

"Along the way, spring, autumn, winter and summer, wind, frost, rain, and snow, neither of them flinched. They were determined to see each other and went on."

"Finally, when the two met on the top of the mountain, they realized that their hearts were so sharp that they didn't have to go down the mountain to meet at the top."

"Brother Xiao." Tang Heng's eyes were full of seriousness: "I only hope that although you and I are on separate sides, we are still not afraid of rumors, and we will be with the sun and wind and rain until we meet at the top of the mountain!"

With that, Tang Heng stretched out his right hand and raised it to his chest.

Pei Yunxiao's eyes were shining brightly, she nodded, and also raised her right hand, firmly squeezing Tang Hang's palm: "Okay, let's meet on the top of the mountain!"

In the inn, Pei Yunxiao entered the room and saw Han Shaozhen sitting at the table alone, not knowing what to think about.

"Little Qi is back? Are they all gone?"

"Well, they're all gone." Pei Yunxiao nodded.

Han Shaozhen shook his head helplessly: "You said you, why bother? Even if you don't act in this play, others may not be like you."

"You have to know that in the eyes of more people, your surname is Pei, and you should never be completely separated from Pei for the rest of your life. You can't represent Pei, but Pei can represent you."

Pei Yunxiao shook his head: "I'm not doing it for myself, I have to plan for my elder brother and them."

"The Zhao and He family insulted them in such a way, in order to cut off their only back path. But after cutting off the robe, who still remembers the farce of the Donglin Restaurant?

No matter whether he is in the camp or his self-esteem, his elder will become the object of everyone's attention. Especially in the eyes of poor students, Tang Heng is the most eye-catching one! "

"You can think about everything for him." Han Shaozhen, who grew up with Pei Yunxiao, felt a little bit sour when he heard that Tang Heng was so important to Pei Yunxiao.

"I'm sorry, Brother Five. You couldn't send them off because of me."

How Pei Yunxiao didn't know, Han Shaozhen seemed casual and casual, but actually regarded Tang Heng and others as close friends.

Han Shaozhen concealed a smile, stood up and patted Pei Yunxiao's shoulder: "It's nothing, I feel comfortable in my heart."

"As long as Xiao Qi remembers, Brother Fifth will stand with you anytime!"

Pei Yunxiao was very moved.

"By the way, Brother Fifth, there was a sudden incident before, and there was no time to ask you. What happened to you and Yongnian? Is it really just for Ning's business?" Pei Yunxiao always feels that with Han Shaozhen's character, this is not the case. .

Han Shaozhen was silent for a while, before saying: "On that day, Patriarch Zhao and Zhao Xizhe visited my father. The Zhao family has nothing to do with us. I don't know why Patriarch Zhao can come in person. That is, after they left, My father's attitude changed drastically, and only then did he have the big banquet that day."

"Whether Zhao Xizhe is intentional or unintentional, I don't want to verify it. Xiao Qi, my instinct told me, Zhao Xizhe, he must not be as simple as it seems!"

"Even I suspect that when he went to Wuzhou to study, he had other plans!"

Pei Yunxiao listened blankly, Han Shaozhen had never been so serious. Doesn't even she herself have doubts about Zhao Xizhe?

But to this day, Zhao Xizhe has not done anything unfavorable to them, at least, there is no evidence to prove how he is.

Pei Yunxiao understood that once he hesitated against a person in his heart, no matter how he concealed it, it would involuntarily make people feel defensive.

Do you want to believe this baseless intuition?

"Fifth brother, what are you going to do next?" Pei Yunxiao turned off the topic and asked about Han Shaozhen's relationship with Tingxin: "You said last time that you want to sever relationship with the Han family. I thought, did you think about it again?"

If you betray the family for the sake of Tingxin, you don't know how the world will judge Tingxin. How much harshness should a girl who has no relatives in the world bear?

"I don't have to do it too terribly." Han Shaozhen's expression was heavy: "But I want them to know that no one can intervene in my decision!"

"It happened that Zikuan and Chufang were scattered all over the world, so I took a meditation to their jurisdiction to investigate and contribute some business taxes to them. I went to the last three or five years, and see who can control me. !"

Pei Yunxiao couldn't laugh or cry, how could she forget that Han Shaozhen always had a way to make his father so angry, and run away from home, but he is good at it!

"As soon as Brother Fifth left, I was in the capital, and there was no one who could make a heart-to-heart."

Think about it, really lonely!

The day when Pei Yunxiao took office as an official was a sunny day.

She put on the crimson rank five official uniform, and looked at herself in the mirror-she was really a handsome young man!

Pei Yunxiao's position in the department of officials is as a scholar in the examination of merits. From the fifth rank, he is in charge of the performance evaluation and promotion of the Chinese military officials.

This position was chosen by both the Pei family and the emperor, which is enough to show the importance of this position.

As soon as Pei Yunxiao arrived at the staff, her deputy, Wai Lang Yang Jian, the current secretary of the test, came to see him with the senior officials.

It is said that the previous student who was a student of her father Pei Nao was a protégé of her father Pei Nao.

And this Master Yang Jianyang is ten years older than Pei Yunxiao. He was born in a poor family. He entered the imperial examination five years ago. He stayed in the examination department and was an ordinary principal until the beginning of the year when the officials were elected. From the sixth grade member Wailang.

Pei Yunxiao thought of her secret meeting with Huang Han a few days ago. Huang Han seemed to have a half-teacher friendship with Yang Jian.

As the saying goes, there are three fires for new officials to take office. The first thing that Pei Yunxiao took to office was to understand the government affairs of Kao Gongsi over the years.

The two principals moved some of the previous files to Pei Yunxiao's table. Pei Yunxiao left Yang Jian alone and asked him about government affairs.

Yang Jian deserves to be an old man who has served in the Kao Department for many years, and he answered every question asked by Pei Yunxiao.

After listening all morning, Pei Yunxiao's head almost exploded.

The government affairs of this test of merit is just one word-chaos!

Originally, the work of Kao Gongsi was trivial.

According to the regulations of the Dali Dynasty, there are two main items in the evaluation of official performance, namely, Beijing officials and foreign officials. These two assessments are two separate systems. In other words, the annual assessment requires two groups of people to evaluate the officials in Beijing and the officials on the outside. This is the first difficulty!

In addition, the criteria for evaluating the performance of officials are also very complicated. First of all, each department of Shangshu Province must report the performance of each official to the Department of Merit. The imperial court also often dispatched supervisory historians and inspectors to various local states and counties to conduct open and unannounced visits, and all the results of their visits would be reported for examinations for meritocracy.

These countless items, including agricultural mulberry, taxation, civil cases, criminal cases, virtues, popular sentiments, and so on, will be the reference standard for the Department of Kao to evaluate the merits of an official's political performance and determine the promotion of an official. This is the second most difficult.

It doesn’t count after the evaluation. The examination department shall publicize the evaluation results. If there is any objection, it needs to be reviewed. After the publicity is completed, the Kao Gong Department will draw up a list of all the results and submit it to the emperor through the official department and the Shangshu province. The emperor will determine which official will be promoted and which official will be demoted after review, and then the official department will implement it. .

The entire performance evaluation process is scattered and trivial, and the time span is nearly a year. The Kao Gongsi still has to deal with emergencies at any time, such as when an official has done a big deal, the emperor has to make an exceptional promotion, or directly shove his official status. Another example is the sudden death of an official who has to draw up a posthumous name and an inscription... All of them need to do a backup job of the meritorious service division.

Pei Yunxiao looked at the extravagant messy information on the table, as if her brain and her hair were all rusted into a ball.

She is too difficult!

"Um... can Master Yang eat at the government office at noon?" Pei Yunxiao touched his hungry stomach.

Yang Jian was taken aback. OK? Will new officials work overtime the first day they take office?

"Yes." After thinking about it, Yang Jian still succumbed to Pei Yunxiao's "prestige".

When hitting workers, you can only bow your head.

Pei Yunxiao nodded with satisfaction, and said: "It's no wonder Mr. Yang, this officer just thinks that the government affairs of the examination of merits are particularly cumbersome, and it needs to be sorted out for a while. Once sorted out, it won't take up adult's leisure time."

When Yang Jian heard this, he hurriedly said: "I am embarrassed to be an official with such diligence in government affairs. In the future, the official will follow the example of an adult and will do his best."

"..." Pei Yunxiao chuckled: "That's not necessary. If it is something like the examination of the merit division, it will be able to exhaust us out of good or bad, is it the incompetence of the official, or the incompetence of our officials?"

Yang Jian was taken aback, he had never heard such a statement.

Suddenly, he became more curious about the new boss.

The author has something to say: After that, the plot will be expanded from the perspective of the two lines of male and female main career lines, and the emotional lines will be developed while shining in their respective posts. Continue to thank the little angels for their support. Is it another day to look forward to your comments? Huh~

The lottery draws at 23 o’clock today. 2 points for chapter 66 are enough (this chapter is chapter 67)

Another note: The relevant content of the official assessment is based on the situation of the past dynasties, and it refers to the Tang and Song dynasties. At the same time, there is a certain fiction, so please refrain from textual research.
