As a classmate, Zhang Wenguan offered an invitation to Sun Chu's appointment with sincerity.

Zhang Wenguan said: "I know Brother Sun's family background. The expenses of going to the exam like this. What should I do for Brother Sun? Don't thank me. After you pass the county exam, are there fewer people who come to flatter you? I'm just going to take a step first."

"Haha." The three of them laughed together.

Sun Chu asked, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Zhang, but I am not as worried as Brother Zhang. I am very satisfied with being an official in a county. My family is poor and I have no time to delay, so I want to embark on the career path early. I will take the imperial examination next year. If I fail, I can only go back to the Imperial College for study. I will either wait for the next examination in three years, or I will be able to become an official after dropping out of the Imperial College for two years. This is far from it."

Lai Ji said: "I think what Brother Sun said makes sense. Although he doesn't have to be an official in the center, he is not an official. At present, the court needs talents to compete with Li Tang. Brother Sun might become an official for a few years earlier, and his future will be better."

"Thank you, brother, for your help."

Zhang Wenguan said: "Brother Sun just think it through. You know, no matter what, I support you."

Sun Chuyi asked, "In the future, I will rely on the support of my two brothers to the Qingyun Road."

Zhang Wenguan laughed and said, "What are you saying, everyone is to support each other. Let's go."

The three of them were about to take a step, but Sun Chuyue suddenly stopped, but saw his uncle rushing aside.

Sun Chu asked, "Uncle."

The uncle said, "Nephew, you finally made a fortune. In the past, my uncle beats and scolds you and is a little sarcastic to you, but don't care."

Sun Chuyou said seriously: "Where is my uncle? I lost my father since I was young. If it weren't for your support and care for us mother and son, how could I have today? Besides, if it weren't for my uncle's encouragement, how could I have today? My nephew should thank my uncle first."

The uncle said ashamed and said, "Just don't blame me, thank me for what I do."

Sun Chuyou smiled and said, "Uncle, you have resigned from this position of in charge first. If I am exiled to be an official, the first three can go to local prefectures and counties at least, and do one of the Cao officials, and you don't have to start with the clerk. The law of the Great Zhao, Cao officials can recruit a clerk themselves, so you can help me."

After hearing this, my uncle said, "The Book Office, I'm having a meal at the yamen."

“That’s right.”

My uncle was very happy and said, "Okay. I will tell your mother the good news first. Go home early. My uncle and your mother want to celebrate you."

After his uncle left, Zhang Wenguan looked at Sun Chu and asked, "Brother Sun, you will not lose your ambitions, and you will not forget your roots. I admire you."

Sun Chuyou smiled and said, "Don't put a high hat on me. Let's go, it's time to go to the county magistrate's office to thank the county magistrate."

"Yes, then we will find a place of smoke and willows and make a good mess."

"It's so good that I've been waiting for Brother Zhang, so I've said this."

"No, I still have to go home and see my mother."

"It's not a bad time."

The laughter of the three of them came from afar, and the young man was successful. The nomination for the gold list was the most joyful for the three young people who were new to the officialdom.

Decades later, Sun Chuyi, who had already retired from the position of Prime Minister of Zhao, recalled this day, and was still very moved and left a book to record the matter. The general idea was that the classmate was young and in his prime; the scholar was full of energy and was full of energy.

The book that Sun Chuyou held was circulated by everyone, and paper in Luoyang was expensive for a while.

Youjing Linshuo Palace.

Li Chongjiu was criticizing the memorial in the hall, and Ji Chuan, Yu Shinan, and Zhang Xuansu were waiting for the three of them to stand together.

Li Chongjiu said to the three people: "The Secretariat and the Secretariat have discussed this time. Can the candidates for the Secretariat Zuo Pushe and the Secretariat of the Ministry of Personnel be negotiated?"

Ji Chuan handed over the memorial, and Li Chongjiu took it and read it, threw it aside and said, "Is this the final decision you discussed?"

"Yes, your Majesty."

Li Chongjiu threw the memorial next to the table and said, "The memorial asked Wang Gui to be promoted to the Left Pushe of the Shangshu, Lu Chengqing to the Right Pushe of the Shangshu, the Censor Gao Xudao was promoted to the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Personnel was promoted to the Minister of Works, Zhao Heran, and the Minister of Works, was moved to the Minister of Works, He Chou, the Minister of Works."

Ji Chuan said: "Your Majesty, these are eight directors of the Secretariat. They agreed with the Secretariat. Your Majesty thinks it is inappropriate."

Li Chongjiu relaxed a little, but said solemnly: "It is good for you to recommend talented people, but there is a big problem with this memorial. Lu Chengqing had just submitted a memorial to me, saying that he was unwilling to be the right servant of Shangshu. Will you not ask the person involved in advance before you elect talents? This is simply messy."

Li Chongjiu was slightly angry, and the three of them all lowered their heads.

Yu Shinan said: "Your Majesty calms down. Since Lu Yaxiang refuses, then just change him."

Li Chongjiu said: "I'm afraid there is something strange about this. You don't need to say it. I decided to discuss this matter in the afternoon today."

Outside Linshuo Palace, the chariots and horses of all officials arrived one after another.

In the legal system of the Great Zhao, officials of the seventh rank were equipped with one horse and officials of the fifth rank or above, the court only equipped them with one carriage, two horses, one coachman, and one horseman to solve the problem of officials' travel.

In the Wu Dynasty of Linshuo Palace, there were all officials above the fifth rank, so there were traffic in front of the palace. The officials slowly walked outside the hall, stood according to the squad, took off their swords and walked into the hall. The officials stood according to the squad.

"Your Majesty is here!"

The voice of the eunuch echoed in the hall.

The officials bowed down to the dragon throne. After waiting for a while, they heard a clear voice from the upper head, flattened. The officials shouted together and then stood up.

Li Chongjiu placed the long sword on his waist in the hands of the guard and sat on the dragon chaise and said, "Today we are summoning everyone to discuss the affairs of the Secretary of the Shangshu Zuo Pushe and the Minister of Personnel. I was very disappointed when I read the memorial before, so I rejected him. Now I revisited this matter."

Zhao State had no subordinate province, so as Emperor Li Chongjiu had the right to veto. Any decision discussed by the Secretariat and Li Chongjiu could reject it if Li Chongjiu did not agree with it. This is a reflection of the power of decisions that should be greater than the suggestion power.

Now that Li Chongjiu said this, all the officials bowed their heads. As the emperor, Li Chongjiu had such power, no one dared to say that it was not, otherwise it would be a provocation to the imperial power.

For Li Chongjiu, why are he not satisfied with his memorial? It is very simple. This appointment destroyed the balance of power and benefited the most. The Wang family in Taiyuan, the Lu family in Fanyang, the Zhao family in Zhuojun, and the Gao family in Bohai. Excluding other forces, if they were allowed to continue, a small circle of power would be formed, and then a clique would be formed, and even provoked the imperial power.

Maintaining balance of power has always been an ancient practice of emperors.

Li Chongjiu said: "I will not discuss this matter internally, but will discuss it in court. You can speak regardless of your official position."

"I have something to say."

Everyone seemed to be Lin Dangfeng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

"speak."
