After the banquet, Zhao Zhen and Empress Cao were sent away, and the others left one after another. Wen Yanbo stayed behind and called Ouyang Bian: "Little monk, my carriage is broken. Can you send me tonight?"

Ouyang Bian complained in his heart: Just tell me if you have something to do, why make excuses?

"That's natural, please do not know." Ouyang Bian laughed so harmlessly.

The carriage was rumbling and the snow was flying.

"Snow and snow indicate a good harvest, and the next year is another good harvest year!" Wen Yanbo praised with his fingers, and said, "People say that Ouyang Mingyue lives in a luxurious life, especially likes elliptical chopsticks and jade cups, and rides on fat clothes, ate ten thousand yuan a day, and slabs and jade stones..."

Ouyang Bian: “…”

"...Look at your carriage, you can walk silently and without any bumps. In the cold wind, you are still as warm as spring. You can sit, lie or roll around. You can see it as a top luxury carriage..."

Ouyang Bian said: "It's my nephew who has not thought well. Tomorrow I will send a spare carriage for Shibo to use temporarily. When Shibo's carriage is repaired, I will send it back to me."

Wen Yanbo was satisfied with his beard stroke: "Young people should not be too extravagant, comfort is reserved for the elderly."

Ouyang Bian hehe.

Wen Yanbo changed the subject and said, "How are you preparing for the Spring Examination?"

Speaking of this topic, Ouyang Bian felt a sense of trembling. Recently, Ouyang Xiu and Wang Anshi were crazy, regardless of the fact that he was still a child, he had to study in Zishantang, take care of a large business, and enjoy... Well, he was beaten by life and forced him to write a mad statement.

When Ouyang Bian raised the question of the unreliable tactics of the sea of ​​questions, he was written a hundred times and his own meaning was called back.

For the first time, he felt the autocracy of feudal society.

Ouyang Bian suddenly became a little unhappy: "Hey, it's probably very difficult. It's already a blessing to be able to pass the last time. I'm afraid it's difficult this time. It's okay. I'm still young, and it's not too late to take the exam in more than ten years."

It's indeed not too late. In more than ten years, Ouyang Bian will still be in his early twenties.

Wen Yanbo's face suddenly changed: "That won't work."

Ouyang Bian was stunned: "Why?"

Wen Yanbo explained with great thought: "Look, there is an old saying that you should become famous as soon as possible..."

Ouyang Bian: “…”

"...Is there such a saying in the Song Dynasty?"

Wen Yanbo blamed Ouyang Bian for interrupting and glared at him: "In "Enter the Car and Driving the Words" in "Nineteen Ancient Poems" says that each person has his own rise and fall, and it is not too early to establish himself. Wouldn't he say that you should become famous as soon as possible?"

Ouyang Bian smiled awkwardly.

"Hmph, I'm ignorant!...Hey, where did I just talk about?"

"You should be famous as soon as possible."

"Yes, you should become famous as soon as possible, and you should become an official as soon as possible. You must have a background and background as an official, but your own qualifications are also very important. Young is capital. Look at Han Zhigui, who became famous in a young age and has now entered the Privy Council. A step further means you must be the prime minister. There is also Xianggong Yan, who passed away last year, also became famous at a young age, and then he became the prime minister in one fell swoop. You can imagine how important it is to be an official at a young age."

Wen Yanbo analyzed.

Ouyang Bian:...

"You have a very good expectation. You said to a ten-year-old child, you are gifted and can be the prime minister in the future. If this is spread, it is not going to make people laugh."

Wen Yanbo stroked his beard and smiled, "If I say this to another child, I really want to make people laugh, but if the object is yours, everyone will only praise me for being vicious."

Ouyang Bian smiled awkwardly: "It is my honor to always be optimistic about you, but I really don't want to..."

Wen Yanbo sneered at the hearing: "A real man should not be powerless for a day. You are in charge of a West Lake City and an Agricultural Bank of China, and you are there to satisfy yourself every day. When you have real power, you will find that it is just a child playing with mud. You don't know how satisfying it is to grasp real power!"

Ouyang Bian fell silent. He was not a real child after all. Of course he knew what power was.

Wen Yanbo continued: "There is nothing wrong with your article. I originally wanted to mention you during the autumn examination, but you are strong enough and that ranking is your true level, so you don't have to underestimate yourself.

It is very important to take a good exam during the Spring Examination. It is very important to have a Jinshi graduate and you must grasp it.”

Ouyang Bian nodded.

If you want to be an official, the Jinshi origin is very important, especially if you have great ambitions.

The Jinshi in the Song Dynasty were divided into five Jias, and the fifth Jia was the same as the Jinshi.

Ranking determines an individual's identity and status to some extent, and another advantage is the principle of making up for shortcomings.

Although the imperial examinations are not as frequent as modern college entrance examinations, this speed of selecting talents is still too fast for the feudal dynasty, so it often occurs. Although it is a two-ranking Jinshi, it is unemployed at home.

At this time, the advantages of being a Jinshi are highlighted.

The most direct manifestation is to make up for the lack of vacancies. As long as there are vacant positions, the Jinshi origin is more advantageous than the same Jinshi origin.

Of course, if you pass the Jinshi, it would be even more amazing.

The three people who have passed the Jinshi exam basically become officials after the exam, and they usually have positions such as editors in the Hanlin Academy.

Although it was not an important position, my later husbands basically had the experience of editing the Hanlin Academy.

Of course, nothing is absolute. Chen Zhizhong, who was exiled because of the Xiaopomegranate case, did not even have a Jinshi origin. He was born as a father, which was also the reason for being rejected.

Wen Yanbo's words were right, but Ouyang Bianxin had doubts. Wen Yanbo was an old fox in the officialdom, so he could see clearly and smiled and said, "I don't understand why I am so active?"

Ouyang Bian quickly said, "I dare not, Shiwang is an elder, so I naturally want to support me as a backward."

Wen Yanbo nodded: "Of course there are reasons for this, but this is what the official family means."

Ouyang Bian suddenly looked up and said in surprise: "Official family?"

Wen Yanbo said: "Do you know what Your Majesty values ​​you?"

Ouyang Bian thought for a moment: "Financial management?"

Wen Yanbo smiled and nodded: "Your Xihu City, Agricultural Bank of China, and ministers in the court all saw it, especially Your Majesty. He originally wanted to promote you directly with his father's embrace, but Your Majesty felt that you could not waste your talents, so you must work hard, get a Jinshi exam and have a future...haha."

Ouyang Bian's mood is quite complicated.

In literary terms, this is called Jian Zai Di Xin.

Most of the people who are in Dixin are promoted like riding in a rocket. For them, the promotion is as easy as someone to eat with, but it is two different concepts hidden behind the scenes and going up to themselves.

Wen Yanbo seemed to know Ouyang Bian's mood and comforted him: "You don't have to worry. If you help the horse, you will also send you a trip. You will have to do the Sansi's life when it comes, but if you can't suppress the formation, you will definitely let someone who can suppress the formation help you."

Ouyang Bian was really shocked now. Is it appropriate to say this so quickly? Is it necessary to let him take charge of the three departments?
