Cannon Fodder Is King

Arc 3.20

Sending away the Xiao family and his party, Meng Zezhi invited Zuo Changshi: "Go, and invite Master Lu to the study."

"Yes."

Lu Daoyi was the son of the Lu family who went to Nanchang Mansion with Meng Zezhi to take the township examination. Like Meng Zezhi, he was quite smooth on his scientific expedition. In the 21st year of Guangde Palace Examination, Lu Daoyi won the 26th place in the top two, and then was successfully selected as Shu Jishi in the Korean Examination hosted by the Ministry of Rites.

In accordance with the practice, the champion of the Zhongxin Division in the Palace Examination will be awarded and edited from the Sixth-Rank Hanlin Academy after the list is issued; the second-ranking and Tanhua will be edited and revised by the Seventh-Rank Hanlin Academy at the same time. The remaining second and third grade new scholars need to participate in the dynasty test again. Those who are in the first class will be awarded the Shujishi, and those who are ranked second will be used as the principals of various ministries, middle books or local magistrates.

The scholars who are admitted to the Chinese Academy of Sciences need to study at the Imperial Academy for two and a half years, and then pass the Sanguan Examination after the expiration of the term. Those with good scores in the Sanguan Examination will be authorized by the Second Grade Jinshi to be edited and edited by the Seventh Imperial Academy, and the top three will be conferred by the same Jinshi. The Seven-Rank Imperial Academy reviewed, and this is considered to be a member of the Imperial Academy.

Since the Dayang dynasty has established a practice since the founding of the country: non-jinshi will not enter the imperial court, and non-hanlin will not enter the cabinet, so officials who can be elected to the imperial court will have a chance to rise to the top.

Those with poor test scores in the local halls were assigned to ministers or local magistrates. Since then, they have been insulated from the Hanlin, and their careers have also been greatly affected.

Lu Daoyi just took the exam at the sanatorium last month, with excellent grades, and is now waiting for the officials to be appointed.

It's just that the distribution of the custard at Sanguan this year is different from previous years.

The concubines in this subject are all in the same year as Meng Zezhi (people admitted on the same list), and the relationship is naturally extraordinary.

The Ministry of Industry was originally the site of the second prince. After the fall of the second prince, almost all the officials under the Ministry of Industry were cleaned up.

Meng Zezhi kept thinking about it and rejected the suggestion of Emperor Guangde to enter the Ministry of Household to observe politics, and chose the Ministry of Industry as his base.

The Ministry of Household has always been firmly in the hands of Emperor Guangde.

——Not only because Meng Zezhi wanted to give himself the most room for development, but the most important thing was because the Ministry of Industry was not only in charge of civil engineering, water conservancy projects, mining and metallurgy, textiles and other government-run industries in the country, but also also had the responsibility of machine manufacturing. , Including weapons, munitions, military utensils, etc., there is a lot of room for operation here.

Emperor Guangde also had the thought of studying Meng Zezhi, and after a little thought, he agreed to Meng Zezhi's request.

Therefore, the more than 30 concubines in this section, except for a few to be appointed as magistrates in Henan because of insufficient positions, the rest are to be assigned to the Ministry of Labor to take charge of the work.
