"The details are not clear, and the young one can't explain it clearly," the servant recalled, "just what he said, this time he had to take the exam together, and then he had to divide it into several places, as if he had to take the exam three times."

"Trial exams? This time is not a temporary increase in literature. In order to alleviate the shortage of officials in Bingzhou, why do you have to take three exams? Since it is a huge screening, there must be a large number of people. Why do you have to take three exams? Is it because there are not enough officials in charge of the exam, so you have to share it?"

Lu Shi was very puzzled when he thought about this. It was already good that his servant could inquire about the news. How could he give him an answer?

So when he was confused, Lu Shi did not delay and went to ask someone he knew. As he was walking, he met an acquaintance, which was Luo Yang.

Luo Yang's nature is that he likes to make friends with aristocratic families. How could he not know a person like Lu Shi? So before Lu Shi could pass by, he came here first.

"Mr. Lu, you are here too. Do you want to see that old official?" Luo Yang spoke without any scruples. While shouting and saying disrespectful words, he walked over without caring about the surprised gazes of others."

Lu Shi didn't dare to act too rashly, so he bowed and said, "It's just the one who came to visit Mr. Mo, isn't Ji Jing?"

"So too, but there are too many people here, and I used to be in the capital... in Luoyang, I once contradicted the old official, so I couldn't bear the face and didn't go in. As a result, I heard the news that I was going to have a big fight this time." Luo Yang's father was Luo Hou. He often went to and from the capital, and the people he came into contact with were different from ordinary people.

"Why, from your tone, you seem to have heard something? Then I want to ask for advice." Lu Shi immediately asked.

Luo Yang did not doubt that he was there, so he said bluntly: "It's nothing. He just said that he would hold a screening in each county first, and then select people and then take the exam for the middle school entrance examination. When all the people from the three states are selected, then..."

"Wait!" Lu Shi frowned, "People from the Three States?"

"Yes," Luo Yang didn't notice it, but he also showed confusion. "It is said that if you include Bingzhou and Pingzhou, as long as you have innocent people and have no criminals, you can apply."

Then he saw Lu Shi's expression and explained: "You probably don't know the military situation yet. Captain Zhang Fang has pacified Pingzhou and is now returning to the army. The governor of Pingzhou Deng Fei has agreed to return to the General's Mansion of Zhengbei. The imperial court in Guanzhong and the Wang Ting in Jiangzuo also sent government orders, one said that he wanted to be a marquis of the general, and the other wanted to give the general the title of General's Governor of Zhengbei, which could control the three states..."

"The power of restraining the three states is quite large," although there was still doubt, Lu Shi couldn't help but mock him when he heard this. "It's just that the title of the marquis and the restraining three states was still in power when the court was still strong, it would be a privilege, but now it's not even added to the icing on the cake. It can only be said to be a part of the fun. After all, these three states can be controlled by not the imperial decrees, but the Xuanjia soldiers!"

After hearing this, Luo Yang nodded and sighed: "Brother Lu really thinks this way. It is really unfavorable to send it here at this time. It is not as good as controlling the four states. It is also considered to be sincere in considering Jizhou."

After hearing this, Lu Shi shook his head and smiled, "They dare not do this."

"How do you say this?"

"If you only give the name of the three states, it is a bit ridiculous, but at least it deserves its name. If you give it to the four states, then there will be Shi Le in Jizhou, which means driving a tiger and swallowing wolf. How dare the courts on both sides of the country make such misunderstandings? It's not that you have to eliminate them all."

After Lu Shi finished speaking, Luoyang felt it made sense and couldn't help but nod.

Lu Shen asked with the opportunity: "Pingzhou is determined to be returned by the lieutenant Zhang. In this way, it is normal to include this place in Wenju. However, there are probably not many people who have read books in Pingzhou. How can they be included in it?"

Luo Yang shook his head and said, "This is not something I can tell. I'm afraid the general has made other arrangements."

As he said this, it was getting late, and news came again that the old eunuch was unwilling to see the guests, so Lu Shi left with the helpless crowd.

But as soon as he arrived at home, he noticed that the atmosphere at home was a little wrong.

"Sir, what's wrong?" When they came to the inner room in the backyard, they immediately met their father Lu Zhi. There were many tribe members this time, not only the elders of the tribe, but also many Lu Zhi's peers, all of whom had serious expressions.

"Did you hear about the great imperial examination?" Lu Zhi asked.

"It's already known," Lu Shi nodded, "outside the altar, there are also many people saying this, saying that the three states were taking the same exam, and they went through the county middle school entrance examination one after another, then compared the state middle school entrance examination, and finally gathered in Jixian to conduct the three exams."

Lu Zhi sighed and said, "Well, who can participate in this screening?"

"I am a innocent son," Lu Shi heard from Luo Yang, which was also comprehensive. "Isn't this the same as the literary reviews in the past?"

But one of his uncles couldn't help but complain directly: "It's not the same, but the foundation of my family's inheritance is going to be cut off!"

"What's going on?" Lu Feng immediately realized that this matter was not simple, "Why is it involving such a serious problem?"

Lu Zhi said: "This major imperial examination is not limited to the three states, but is set up recruitment places in counties and counties, and three months of registration time is given. Whether it is the children of the three states, scholars from other places, or even extra-hu people, they can apply for it as long as they are willing. After March, they will take the unified examination!"

"What?" Lu Shi was stunned at first after hearing this, and then was shocked. "This means that anyone who studies the reading can be an official? How can this be done? Isn't this meant that we should cut off our foundation? And I don't know how many people will get involved. Besides, most of the people from poor families are greedy for money but not learning, and study but do not know the six arts. We should advise..."

At the end, Lu Shi was suddenly stunned.

And his elders smiled bitterly.

Lu Zhi sighed and said to his son: "You know you are amazing, right? You are a general? Which family dares to dissuade him at this step?"

Lu Shi was stunned for a while before murmured: "The previous assassination of the county was said to be a collusion between the Youzhou family and the outside world, and then the news of the contact between the aristocratic family and the Murong family was revealed. It has been confirmed that these families were worried and had no way to ask for advice everywhere, but they didn't know when the general would take action and which one would take action. Now it seems..."

Lu Zhi took a deep breath and shook his head and said, "Yes, it may be true to deal with aristocratic families now, but this is not the purpose. What the general really wants to do is to implement the so-called imperial examination! In the past, civil and military examinations were a strategy of boiling frogs with warm water. Now, the assassination was a bright knife hanging on our heads. Who dared to persuade or have any abnormal movements? The Xuanjia general would come and pave the way directly. This imperial examination..."
