Chapter 2552 recommendation

Bai Erlang's guess was right, the emperor had indeed chosen a position for him a long time ago, and he had an appointment with Li Mao to discuss this issue before the results of the official examination.

The location is excellent, the Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy.

This time, the position was very smooth, not only Li Maoyue did not object, but even Wei Zhi and other ministers did not object, so that the emperor who was ready to fight with his heart was lost.

Li Maoyue didn't object because he felt that Bai Cheng was a jinshi, and his ability was not much worse. The emperor's move was obviously not to let Bai Cheng take power in the future, but to keep the concubine and the princess in the capital.

If so, then I agree.

And Wei Zhi and others did not object because Bai Erlang had written a book, and it was a bestseller.

"Xiang Mingxue Biography" is naturally not only watched by his own children and grandchildren, but adults also quietly collected a copy.

Given that his narrative ability is not bad, it is also possible to put it in the Hanlin Academy to revise books.

Therefore, the emperor was selfish, and after a few elders thought about it, they felt that Bai Cheng was also capable, so they agreed.

If he is incompetent, even if the emperor is angry, they can't agree.

They feel that this is meritocracy.

However, both of the Bai brothers are jinshi. Since Bai Cheng wants to stay in Beijing, Bai Zhi can no longer stay in the capital.

This is the most basic avoidance policy.

Bai Erlang handed in the application form on the front foot, and Li Maoyue knew it on the back foot, and told his subordinates: "Press it for two days before giving it to him, so as to avoid rumors outside."

Subordinates should go down.

Li Maoyue picked up the document he had just written today and went to the palace. Today, we are going to discuss the employment of the fourth batch, and the position is also very important.

Regardless of the fact that a county magistrate is only six or seven ranks, the emperor is very concerned about this, as are the court officials.

After all, Dajin is composed of these counties, and the county magistrate is called the parent official, so it must be selected.

Basically, every year the county magistrates and emperors who are elected to the local area will meet with the examination school in person, and only after confirming that there is no problem will they be allowed to go out.

Especially this time there are several important counties to appoint magistrates.

Li Maoyue entered the palace with his hands in his hands, and then met Zhou Man on the steps of the long Taiji Hall.

During this period of time, Li Maoyue entered the palace for a brief summary, and he knew it as soon as he inquired with the guards at the gate of the palace and the servants at the corridor.

They have a particularly good memory, and because the job is monotonous, they can remember such insignificant things.

Man Bao naturally wouldn't ask the guards, she asked the servants. This kind of small news is still very willing to sell her a good one.

So she knew that in the past four or five days, Li Maoyue entered the palace between two and three o'clock, and the time of leaving the palace was not fixed. Rest in the palace, and don't leave the palace until the afternoon.

This depends on the number of affairs in the DPRK. Sometimes when the emperor is busy and has no time to see him, he will leave the palace very late.

Therefore, Manbao does not block the back, but only blocks the front.

She deliberately arrived at the Taiji Temple two quarters before the hour, and just saw the long steps from a distance and admired the scenery from left to right.

Although there is no scenery here.

The Taiji Hall is very solemn. In front of it is a huge square, with bluestone slabs on the ground, and aisles and stone bridges built from various places, all made of white marble.

To talk about the scenery, it can only be counted as the large stone jars placed on both sides of the stone steps, in which some green pine and lotus are planted.

Now that the lotus has not bloomed, only the evergreen pines are left.

Man Bao was already very slow, so slow that some ministers passing by couldn't help but look at her sideways.

Fortunately, there are not many people coming and going here. Well, apart from the great court meeting, there are not many courtiers who usually come to the Taiji Temple, and most of them are officials above the fourth rank.

From a distance, seeing Li Mao about to go up the steps, Man Bao simply stopped and waited for him.

Li Maoyue came up and looked at Zhou Man very strangely, "How come Master Zhou is free today?"

Man Bao put his hands in his sleeves, and when he heard the words, he took out the book and raised it, "The cowpox of the Imperial Army has been planted, and I will report it to Your Majesty."

Li Maoyue suddenly realized and asked with a smile, "Is everything going well?"

Man Bao nodded, "It's okay, some people didn't respond well when they were vaccinated, but fortunately there was no danger to their lives."

More people have been vaccinated, and more exceptional cases have been collected. Although the Imperial Physician's Office is nervous, it does not dislike such cases. This shows that there is still room for improvement in cowpox, or some special cowpox should be specially formulated to adapt to it. special case...

But this is not Zhou Man's main purpose today. The reason why she snatched the reporting job from Xiao Yuan's forehand was to block Li Maoyue.

Therefore, Man Bao also cared about Li Maoyue's work, "Li Shangshu is still busy with the election of officials recently?"

"Yeah," Li Maoyue also complained, "every spring is the busiest time for our Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Households. Not only do we have to arrange newly promoted jinshi and Mingjing, but also arrange for transfer of officials when they return to Beijing to report their duties. "

Even if the two are intertwined, some officials have been promoted, and naturally they will vacate their positions for newcomers who will serve this year.

"I heard that there was another county magistrate who died of a sudden illness this year?" Man Bao couldn't help but asked curiously, "What's the disease?"

Li Maoyue didn't realize that she was cheating. Zhou Man is an imperial physician. Everyone knows that she likes special cases. I heard that she still goes to Ji Shitang to see cases from time to time, so she just thought she was interested in diseases and sighed: "It's the magistrate of Tongbai County. It was a wind chill. It was said that it was a spring rain when it was a cold spring. It was a minor illness at first, but who knew that it became more and more serious, but it didn't endure it."

And very quickly, it only took 12 days before and after, and it took only 4 days from the time of serious illness to the death of the disease, so he couldn't even make arrangements, so the county government could only report to the top, and let the Ministry of Personnel hurriedly send officials there. After all, it is the critical time for spring ploughing. How can the county government do without a magistrate?

Wind chills can kill people.

Man Bao also sighed, and then asked Li Maoyue, "Is Li Shangshu set to take over?"

Li Maoyue shook his head and said with a smile, "Tongbai County is Zhong County, and it is up to your Majesty to decide."

But he is a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, so it is impossible not to recommend him, and Man Bao didn't point it out, and asked with a smile, "How does Li Shangshu feel about Bai Zhi?"

Li Maoyue couldn't help but pause, looked at Zhou Man, "Who?"

"Bai Zhi," Man Bao said directly, "I recommend Bai Zhi to you. Do you remember his official examination papers?"

Before Li Maoyue could speak, Man Bao took out an article from his sleeve and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't remember, you look at the articles he usually writes? This is to persuade Nongsang to teach, and Tongbai County is also considered It is a large grain-producing county, but I heard Bai Zhi say that the difference between the rich and the poor in the county is too great, it seems that the rich households are mostly concentrated in the west, and the east is very poor.”

Li Maoyue didn't want to take the article at first, but after hearing what Zhou Man said, he reached out and took it.

Bai Zhi had obviously done his homework to say these words, so why not give him a chance.
