Chapter 113: The Grand Court Conferment of Officials, Fifth-Rank Yizhou Garrison Commander (Subscrip
Zhou Shan and others.
They spent three days in the post station.
They received a notice yesterday that they could attend the court meeting today.
Today, all the military scholars were happily wearing the clothes of the Jinshi.
Zhou Shan wore a bright red champion robe, and the champion hat was also mainly red, with purple silk edges around it, a piece of flawless white jade in the middle, and purple divine deer printed on both sides.
Everyone gathered and walked all the way to the inner city under the leadership of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.
During the few days at the post station, the officials of the Ministry of Rites also came to teach them the etiquette of entering the palace to attend the court meeting. They basically attended the court meeting for the first time and could not be rude.
Once they were rude, the emperor might not blame these military scholars for a small matter, but the officials of the Ministry of Rites would definitely be criticized by other officials and held accountable.
Qianjing City is divided into the imperial city, the inner city and the outer city.
Needless to say, the Imperial City is where the Imperial Palace is located. There are also some princes and princesses who are not yet underage, or some princes who have reached adulthood but have not been crowned as kings. They all live in the princes' mansions in the Imperial City.
Only when they are crowned as kings will they open a palace outside.
In addition, there is the Imperial Clan House, which is also in the Imperial City.
The Imperial Clan House is an institution specifically responsible for handling the affairs of members of the Imperial Family. If a member of the Imperial Family breaks the law, the court has no right to deal with it, and can only hand it over to the Clan House for handling.
As for how the Clan House will deal with it, the court has no right to ask.
The Inner City is where some princes and nobles live. Some officials must at least reach the fourth rank to be qualified to have a mansion in the Inner City. Moreover, there are no single small houses in the Inner City, nor are there small alleys like those in the Outer City. They are all high and deep courtyards with red walls and red tiles, which look very noble.
Some high and deep courtyards even directly occupy a street, with stone unicorns placed at the door.
Only the palace of a first-rank official or above can be so magnificent in a place like Qianjing City where every inch of land is worth a lot of money. A palace directly occupies an entire street.
The outer city is where officials below the fourth rank, wealthy people, and ordinary people live.
The entire outer city is very large, much larger than the prefecture city of Donghai Prefecture, and can accommodate tens of millions of people. In addition, there are eight counties in the capital area that the capital can radiate from outside Qianjing City.
Each of these eight large counties has a population of more than one million.
Under normal circumstances, the county magistrate of a small county under a prefecture is only the seventh rank, while the county magistrate of some special large counties is the sixth rank, and the county magistrate of the capital area is the fifth rank.
The court holds a court meeting.
If it is just a small court meeting, only officials of the fourth rank and above will participate.
If it is a grand court meeting, the county magistrate, county assistant, county lieutenant and other officials in the capital area must also attend the court, and the officials in the capital, even if they are as low as the ninth rank, must also "attend the court", but they are not qualified to enter the palace and can only stand in the square outside the palace.
This time, the military scholars were appointed as officials, which belonged to the grand court meeting. If the general champion was sent to be a county magistrate, he would basically be a county magistrate in the capital area, and the rank of the fifth rank was just right.
In the capital area, it is under the feet of the emperor, so promotion is naturally very fast.
The county magistrate in the capital area has to get up and set off one or two hours earlier than the officials in the capital.
After arriving in the inner city, Zhou Shan saw many officials going out and walking towards the imperial city along the way.
Some officials walked, while others took sedan chairs.
However, if you want to take a sedan chair, only officials who have reached the third rank are qualified, and only two people carry the sedan chair, the second rank is four people, the first rank is six people, and the princes above the first rank are qualified to use eight people.
Officials below the third rank could only walk.
The entire capital, plus the important officials in the capital area, all added up to more than a thousand people.
These officials gathered outside the imperial city, and then entered the imperial city according to their ranks under the arrangement of many imperial guards and eunuchs in the palace. Officials in the capital had participated in more than one grand court meeting, and basically would not make mistakes. These imperial guards and eunuchs mainly led the way for the military scholars who had obtained merits to avoid usurpation.
"Ding!"
A bell sounded that resounded through the sky and shook the sky like thunder.
Not only in the imperial city, but also in the entire inner city and even the outer city, this bell sound could be heard.
As the bell sounded, all officials took the initiative to shut their mouths and stopped talking.
A group of officials entered the city one after another and walked towards the Jinluan Palace where the court was held.
Zhou Shan and other military scholars were standing in the middle of a group of officials, in the fifth rank, behind the fifth rank officials and in front of the sixth rank officials, and followed a group of officials into the city.
However, when they were about to reach the Golden Throne Hall, the military scholars were first led to a side hall to wait.
Only when the emperor summoned them could the military scholars go to the Golden Throne Hall.
The Golden Throne Hall was built majestically and magnificently, like a golden mountain standing there. Moreover, on the walls of the hall and the pillars around it, there were mysterious Taoist runes. These Taoist runes condensed together to form lifelike five-clawed golden dragons, just like real ones, exuding an extremely terrifying momentum.
This Golden Throne Hall is an extremely powerful spiritual weapon, which may even exceed the sixth-level spiritual weapon and belong to the seventh-level holy weapon.
Anyway, with Zhou Shan's current state, he feels that this Jinluan Palace is unfathomable.
At least, the pressure on him was greater than that of the four examiners of the martial arts examination he had ever seen.
In this Jinluan Palace, even if you are a first-grade official, your strength will be suppressed. The entire Jinluan Palace is very large, even if it can accommodate thousands of people, there will be no problem.
It's just that the Jinluan Palace is big, but if you want to enter the palace, you must reach at least the fifth rank. Officials below the fifth rank can only stand outside the palace, and the civil and military officials who can enter the palace can't add up. There were only about two hundred people.
Therefore, the officials in the palace are also called civil and military officials.
At this time, all the civil and military officials were also arranging their appearance in another side hall.
"Hundred officials enter the upper hall!"
A powerful voice sounded. After the civil and military officials arranged their appearance, they stepped into the Jinluan Palace.
Zhou Shan and others waited quietly.
About two quarters of an hour passed.
"The emperor has a decree to summon Zhou Shan, the current number one scholar in martial arts, Xia Gong, who is second in the martial arts rankings, and Yang Tian, the top martial arts scholar, to come to the palace to see him."
That energetic voice sounded again.
Hearing this, Zhou Shan, Xia Gong and Yang Tian immediately tidied up their appearance and then walked towards the Jinluan Palace.
Among the three of them, it can be said that two are from the Tiansheng Sect.
Yang Tian is the core disciple of Yingtian Dao, and although Zhou Shan has not worshiped the Tiansheng Sect, he has also obtained the inheritance of White Bone Dao and is a disciple of White Bone Dao. The Xia family where the other person Xia Gong belongs to belongs to a thousand-year-old family. .
The so-called thousand-year-old family existed before the founding of Daqian and went through several dynasties.
Xia Gong is not only from a thousand-year-old family, but also possesses the ability to follow the dragon.
Therefore, in Daqian Kingdom, the Xia family can be said to be one of the top families under the royal family.
The Xia family has one Duke and three nobles, all of whom are hereditary and have great prestige in the military. Now the military general who commands all the troops in the world is Xia Guogong of the Xia family.
The Xia family was deeply favored by the emperor.
When the current Xia Guogong was still a boy, he joined the army and fought with Emperor Qian, who was still a prince. At that time, he saved Emperor Qian's life and had a life-long friendship. Therefore, after Emperor Qian ascended the throne, Xia Guogong's lineage was deeply valued.
After a while, Zhou Shan and the others climbed the steps into the Jinluan Palace.
There are two sides of the steps leading into the Jinluan Hall. In the center of the steps on both sides, there are various reliefs carved.
If you look carefully, you will find that these reliefs are some of the famous mountains and rivers owned by the Thirty-four Prefectures of Daqian. All civil and military officials entering the Jinluan Hall walked up the steps on both sides of the reliefs.
Civil servants walked to the left, while military attachés walked to the right.
Zhou Shan and the others were Wu Jinshi, so they took the steps on the right.
As he got closer to the Jinluan Palace, Zhou Shan felt that the majesty contained in the void became more and more vast, which made people feel fearful. If ordinary people without martial arts cultivation, it would be impossible to even approach the Jinluan Palace.
After climbing up the steps, Zhou Shan and the others entered the Golden Palace.
The Jinluan Hall was filled with nobles.
Even the huge beams and pillars are all purple.
On top of the purple beams, there is a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon, full of nobility.
Civil and military officials stood on both sides of the hall.
On the left are civil servants and on the right are military attachés.
However, the civil and military officials only occupied part of the hall.
Further to the left and right, there are fully armed Yulin guards standing. Each of them exudes a fierce aura, and the auras of these Yulin guards are connected together, as if they are a whole.
Zhou Shan and others almost reached the middle position and stopped. They also saw His Majesty the Emperor of Daqian, Emperor Yongchang.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
The three people from Zhoushan bowed to Emperor Yongchang who was at the top.
In this world where martial arts is respected, in order to show respect for the strong, the kneeling ceremony was directly abolished. All civil and military officials only need to bow and salute when they see the emperor.
If a martial saint who has reached the seventh level or a heavenly master pays homage, even if he is the emperor, he still has to return the favor.
"Three beloved ladies are alive!"
Emperor Yongchang said with a faint smile on his face.
This Emperor Yongchang looks quite young, only around 28 or 29 years old, but his real age is over 90 years old, and he has been in power for 60 years.
The previous reign name was Taishun, which was the reign title of Emperor Yongchang when he first ascended the throne.
The reason why the reign was named Taishun was because when the emperor first ascended the throne, natural disasters occurred frequently in various places in Daqian. Taishun means peace for the country and people, and good weather.
This year has fifty-five years.
Fifty-five years later, there were fewer natural disasters in Daqian, the country's power was booming, and the annual taxes were increasing year by year. The country became more and more powerful, so the name was changed to Yongchang.
Yongchang means eternal prosperity.
According to the rules set by Taizu Daqian, each emperor can reign for a maximum of eighty years, and it is already the fifth year of Yongchang. This Emperor Yongchang can still reign for ten years.
The reason why Emperor Yongchang looks so young is that he is successful in martial arts.
In martial arts practice, if you reach the third level of visceral training, you can live for more than a hundred years. If you reach the fourth level of blood exchange and the fifth level of mountains and seas, your life span will increase a lot. Living to two hundred years is not a problem.
What's more, Emperor Yongchang is in charge of the world and has countless people to collect rare treasures for him. It is not difficult to maintain youth forever. If necessary, Fang Xiandao will refine the beauty pill to keep a person's appearance in a certain way. a stage.
Then, Emperor Yongchang glanced at the eunuch in charge of the palace next to him. The latter immediately picked up the imperial edict that had been drawn up long ago and read out: "The emperor carries the imperial edict from heaven!
Zhou Shan, Baisha County, Dacang County, Donghai Prefecture, is brave, courageous, and good at fighting. He is the number one scholar in today's military examinations. He was named the fifth-rank governor of Yizhou. He is also the director of the Ministry of War. He can enter the treasure house to select a treasure. "
"Wei Chen accepts the order!"
Zhou Shan responded loudly and bowed to thank him.
A eunuch received the imperial edict from the eunuch in charge and handed it over to Zhou Shan.
Zhou Shan took the imperial edict with both hands.
He did not expect that the emperor would give him the position of governor of Yizhou.
The Donghai Navy had just captured Fushan Prefecture, Yizhou and Zuozhou in the Japanese Kingdom. Unexpectedly, they would directly appoint officials so quickly. The position of the garrison envoy was equivalent to the garrison of a county and the management of the military of a state.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, the edict says!
Xia Gong of Tiannan Prefecture was brave, fearless and courageous. He was ranked second in the Jinke Military Examination and was awarded the rank of fifth-rank Zuozhou garrison. He also served as the director of the Ministry of War. He could enter the treasury to select a treasure. "
The eunuch in charge of the palace took out another imperial edict and read it out.
"Wei Chen accepts the order!"
Xia Gong bowed and thanked him.
According to convention, the second rank of Wu Bang should have been a sixth-grade official.
However, this Xia Gong, like Zhou Shan, the champion, directly became the governor of Zuozhou, and also served as the head of the Ministry of War.
From this we can see that Emperor Yongchang took a fancy to the Xia family.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, the edict says!
Yang Tian, a disciple of the Yingtian Dao of the Tiansheng Sect, is young and smart, has a virtuous character, and is a top candidate for the Jinke Military Examination. He is awarded the rank of Sixth Grade Fushan Prefecture Qianhu, and is also a member of the Ministry of War. He can enter the treasure house to select a treasure. "
The eunuch in charge of Ouchi continued to read the imperial edict.
The official position conferred by Yang Tian, the martial artist, was no different from the past. He started at the sixth rank and was also a member of the Ministry of War.
The member of the Ministry of War, Wai Lang, is also a member of the sixth rank, and the director of the Ministry of War who is above him is a member of the fifth rank.
Regardless of whether they are Yuanwailang or Chief Officer, they are all mid-level official positions belonging to the Six Ministries.
Above the chief minister, there is the Liubu Langzhong, reaching the fourth rank, and above the doctor, there is the left and right minister, who is the right-hand man of the Liubu Shangshu. The rank is the second rank, and the Liubu Shangshu is also the first rank official position.
Generally, after reaching the rank of Liubu Langzhong, he will be transferred to the local government to serve as a third-level official, and then he will be promoted to Liubu Shilang.
"Wei Chen accepts the order!"
Yang Tian bowed and thanked.
The awarding of first-class Jinshi officers was over, and Zhou Shan and the other three stood aside.
Next, it was time to confer an imperial edict to Erjia Wu Jinshi. Instead of reading out one imperial edict for each person, all thirty-six people received an imperial edict. However, after the conferment, each person would still receive an imperial edict.
Erjia Wu Jinshi basically starts as a seventh-grade official.
After a while, the conferral of officers to the second-grade Wu Jinshi was completed, and then came the conferral of officers to the fellow Jinshis of the third grade.
The official positions conferred by the Third Grade and the Jinshi basically start at the eighth rank.
Although the eighth rank is very small, the county magistrates and county captains in some counties are only the eighth rank, and they have the same honors as Jinshi. Even if they have no honors, when they go to the local level, they are basically promoted once a year, and it won't take long. It was promoted to level six.
As long as the cultivation level breaks through to the fourth realm, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the fifth level.
After the Jinke Military Examination Scholars were awarded, there were no major events at the court meeting.
If there was any major event, it would have been decided before the award was given, so after the Jinke Martial Arts Examination Scholar was awarded, the court meeting was coming to an end.
After a quarter of an hour, the meeting dispersed.
"Brother Zhou, it seems that this time the imperial court is really determined to destroy Japan and bring Japan into its territory."
After the court meeting dispersed, Li Cheng and Wang Qing immediately stepped forward.
According to past practice, a group of martial arts scholars will be sealed to each of the thirty-four prefectures and counties.
However, most of the Wu Jinshi this time were sealed to the newly occupied Toyama Prefecture, Yizhou and Zuozhou.
Zhou Shan is the guardian envoy of the fifth rank of Yizhou, and they are a hundred households of the seventh rank.
In addition to them, some were sealed to serve as county captains in various counties under Toyama Prefecture, Yizhou and Zuozhou.
You must know that the status and background of each person who can obtain the title of Wu Jinshi is not simple. Now they are all sealed overseas in Toyama Prefecture, Illinois and Zuozhou. It is obvious that the court wants to use the power behind these Wu Jinshi to quickly Stabilize these three states and then integrate them into Daqian to become places that can provide taxes.
"If the imperial court is really determined to annex Japan, there will definitely be follow-up measures. We just have to do our own thing."
Zhou Shan said lightly.
"Master Zhuangyuan, come with our family to the treasure house to select treasures."
At this time, an old eunuch with beard and hair came over and said.
"Thank you for your work, father-in-law!"
Zhou Shan saluted politely.
Although the other party was a eunuch, he also had strong martial arts skills. Even if he was not as good as the eunuch in charge standing next to Emperor Yongchang in the main hall, the aura he exuded reached the level of the fifth realm.
This old eunuch is a master who has reached the fifth level.
"Brother Zhou, you go pick out the treasures first. We will wait for you outside the imperial city."
Li Cheng, Wang Qing and other officials left.
Zhou Shan, Xia Gong and Yang Tian followed the old eunuch to the treasury.
This treasury is naturally in the imperial city.
The so-called treasury is actually a branch of the national treasury. The things collected in it are all relatively rare treasures. The treasures in the treasury are basically used by the emperor to reward his ministers.
Above the treasury, there is also the Royal Secret Treasury.
The treasures in this Royal Secret Treasury are even more precious. Generally, the fourth-level spiritual medicines and spiritual weapons are not qualified to enter the Royal Secret Treasury.
