Chapter 705
Gu Qing sat in his study, and the surroundings were quiet for a while, and even the sound of rain stopped. Looking at the contents of the letter, the letter was not signed. After reading the whole article, the contents on it were all about a person, and it was more like an autobiography.
"My name is Fu Zheng, I guess you have discovered me..."
It was similar to everything he had inquired about. He learned the art of Qimen Dunjia in the family, but he thought he wanted to enter the tomb of Emperor Shin-Emperor and was caught by his family and should have been executed, but he was sentenced to escape from the house. This was different from what he knew. Later, he met Yuan Tiangang, met the old man from Shennongjia from Yuan Tiangang, and worshiped the old man from Shennongjia as his master. When the matter came here, Gu Qing looked down and saw the clues about immortality.
The Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun Mountain, the legend of the Qinling Mountains, the secret of Changbai Mountain, and Xu Fu's words about where Penglai Fairy Island was, and why Xu Fu never returned back then.
After saying so much in the whole letter, it seems like I am talking to myself, and I say so much to make myself believe that there is immortality in this world.
He put the letter aside disdainfully and understood it. Gu Qing stood up and stretched his body. It turned out that this guy was here to take the lead in order to make himself believe or make him feel that he could take a group of madmen to find the immortality that did not exist.
The legend of the immortal medicine has always been more or less. King Mu of Zhou, the First Emperor, and the Queen Mother of the West, have too many legends.
Before he knew it, it was already dawn. Gu Qing opened the door and breathed fresh air. For a long night, there were too many things that happened that night. Li Zhi hurried to the Hai Trade Department early in the morning to seize the time to start this upcoming autumn.
All the matter was left to Li Zhi to handle. Gu Qing was still a little nervous and went to court early. Li Chengqian also returned to the court and would not interfere in the matter of sea trade. Today is the first day of the court meeting after the imperial examination. There are many young faces in the court. This is the fresh blood recruited from this imperial examination.
Gu Qing smiled at the scene in front of him, and there was more vitality in the whole court, and more and more newcomers would become officials in the court, and there would be constant competition. These competitions are the source of the living water of the entire officialdom and the rising force in the officialdom.
The newcomers stood in the court, but the old dukes and the old generals still did not stand here. Since then, the Zhenguan dynasty has been completely exposed since then.
The veteran Lao Guogong left the court with a very quiet attitude. They left in a low-key manner and admitted that the new era was coming.
Li Chengqian listened to the court's shouting at his mountain, nodded, and his eyes fell on Gu Qing, the prime minister standing in front of all officials, as well as the three ministers behind Gu Qing, Chu Suiliang, Shangguan Yi, and Xu Jingzong.
Looking at these four people, Li Chengqian also knew that it was almost impossible for him to completely control the court. Over the past few days, Gu Qing's three nobles have almost always taken charge of the government affairs. Even if he does not go to court, the entire Tang Dynasty can operate normally. The ministers have checked and balanced the power of the emperor. Starting from his father, the father will occasionally have some prejudice and the court officials will not object too much. But now it is different. Gu Qing directly broke the window between the king and the ministers.
Gu Qing stood out of the court and said to the ministers below, "I know that this is the first time that many people here have come to this place. Here is a place to discuss state affairs. You have to entrust you to govern the Tang Dynasty. You also know that there are three or even four or five people in the same position among you. The competition is cruel. It does not mean that you can rest assured if you enter the imperial examination. If others do better than you, you will be eliminated and left this place. Whoever does better can stay."
"I dare to ask the prime minister how to judge whether he will stay or not!" A young official stood up and asked in a pretentious manner.
"The question was very good." Gu Qing nodded, "You can raise questions if you have any questions, don't be timid. The court is not so unsatisfactory. As for the assessment of stay and departure, it is decided by the Three Ministers and the Six Ministry. Your actions will be recorded by the Six Ministry. The Three Ministers will also be inspected by the Censorate."
"The official understands."
"Is there any other problem?" Gu Qing continued.
"There is a question from the lower official." Another young official stood out from the court class and asked, "We were all students who were admitted to the court after the imperial examination. There was no difference between us, but the salary was the same."
"I'm going to say this." Chu Suiliang replied, "Actually, your problem is wrong. You have not received an official position yet. The salary you are receiving is a subsidy, not a formal salary, which lasts for three months. You start competing within these three months. Studying is not the same as being an official. You can study, not to be an official. Don't be proud of those in high positions now, because those with lower positions will climb up to your position at any time, and those in low positions should not be worried. In the past three months, you young officials will be constantly dispatched, and some will even be dispatched to further places, so you must work hard during this period."
Gu Qing took Chu Suiliang's words and said, "You can choose the position you want, but you must first submit it to the Ministry of Personnel. After the Ministry of Personnel allows you to go to the position you want to go. The probation period is three months in total. You can seize the opportunity yourself. One person can only choose the position you want to go to once and join another group of competitions. No matter how good your imperial examination scores are, I don't care what your family background you are. Whoever advances and who retreats, it all depends on your ability. Of course, if you want to let me know who will receive privately, no matter who you are, no matter how prominent your family background is, you will be reborn and no longer hired."
"Don't think about getting closer. It's a dead end. It doesn't matter if you are eliminated. You can continue to come again next time. After all, you are still young, but the court is not like outside. If you take the wrong path, you will have no chance to go back. Remember!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Everyone knew what happened at the beginning of this year. How many officials were arrested in Dali Temple and how many officials were dismissed. Almost all officials who had privately taught each other were dismissed. Even if they had collected money and opened a convenient door, they were all taken down. It seems that the court today cannot rub half a piece of sand. This is also the attitude of the court today.
