Chapter 2

2.30 Arrange the imperial examination and go to Iron Net Mountain

There were female military posts in the Dashun Dynasty, but the situation was quite special.

As we all know, when Li Zicheng led the refugees to flee around, no one actually thought he could be the emperor, because the refugees were too chaotic and their combat effectiveness was too poor.

Basically, their method is to count where they hit, and when they arrive, they will eat up and loot them all, coercing the local people to continue to grow their team.

In order to facilitate management, the refugee army is also divided into functions, such as the old battalion, personal soldiers, soldiers, hungry soldiers, etc., including the women's battalion.

Not only is the entire refugee army divided in this way, but also the internal factions are divided in the same way. For example, the famous Hong Niangzi has a nominal status as the head of the women's battalion under Li Yan.

All the women's battalions in the refugee army were nominally under the jurisdiction of Li Zicheng's wife, Gao Shi Guiying. Of course, everyone knew that this was just a name.

After Emperor Taizong Li Guo established the country in Jinling, he kept many of the rules of the refugee army. These were criticized by a bunch of civil officials, but he never paid attention to them.

After that, the three emperors made changes, and a large number of old customs from the refugee army era were gradually eliminated, but a small part was retained, including the establishment of female generals.

However, with the gradual victory of the war, especially after Emperor Gaozong's Northern Expedition successfully established the capital, the so-called "female general" only had a name left, which was still hung under the name of the current queen.

Up to the current Emperor Yongzheng, the total number of women in the whole world who are still holding military positions is not enough to make up double digits, and most of them are imaginary.

These people are just honors deliberately given by the emperor in order to win people's hearts. They have nothing but a salary, but there are exceptions.

At present, the only real-time female general who is famous all over the world and officially certified is the orthodox inheritance of the "White Soldier" back then, and the hereditary Shizhu Xuanfu Envoy General Qin.

It's just that she must also abide by Confucian rules. For example, the world only knows her surname Qin, and few people know her first name.

The rest of the female generals are all the same, nominally holding a position in the court female guards under the empress, but in fact they may not even be able to hold a knife at all, not to mention that there are no female guards in the palace long ago.

Female generals are paid very high, starting with a hundred households, the treatment of the sixth grade, and even thousands of households and command envoys can be directly sealed according to the family situation, even if it is the number one scholar, it will take I don’t know how many years.

Female generals can indeed apply in name, under the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there is a special agency in charge, as long as the standards are met, they can enjoy the treatment after being certified by the imperial court, which is similar to the imperial examination.

It's a pity that a theory is a theory after all, because it has never been implemented since the founding of the Dashun Dynasty!
But Shi Xiangyun's situation is special. Even with her current skills, theoretically, as long as the application is absolutely approved, she is the daughter of the former Zhongjinghou. In theory, she can still be named the township owner.

However, among so many people at the scene, no one really took it seriously. They were all talking and laughing, and even if it was over, only Wei Xu and Shi Xiangyun looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't say much.

Since returning to the world of "Flying Fox", the two have not seen each other very often. It was only at the beginning that Wei Xu went to the historian's house once at night, and this was the second time they met.

The reason for intentionally exposing is actually to "get a vaccination". If Shi Xiangyun's strength continues to improve in the future, it will be convenient for him to have something to say.

After all, there is a difference between men and women. The three little girls left after seeing the excitement for a while. Even if Shi Xiangyun was tough, it was not convenient to stay longer, so he also followed.

As for Jia Baoyu, he dismissed the group of warriors and left by himself long ago.

The five contestants naturally continued to train until two nights before the competition, Jia Amnesty hosted a banquet in person, and also invited Hachiko and others, which was regarded as a feast for the five.

After a lot of toasting and talking and laughing without mentioning it, until the end of the banquet, Jia She suddenly asked Wei Xu.

"I heard from Lian'er that you want to take part in the Tongsheng Examination?" Jia Amnesty's tone was very casual, apparently not taking it seriously.

"My nephew will definitely join the army in the future. If he has a reputation, he can talk to those poor people." Wei Xu has already thought about this reason.

"Are you sure?" Hou Xiaokang asked with a smile.

"It's hard to say about other things. If you're just a student (scholar), my nephew will be fine." Wei Xu's study all the time is actually for the children's exam preparation.

"You should know that there is a quota for the Imperial College in the mansion. If you use it, can you be sure of the township examination in the next year?" Jia Amnesty's words stunned the audience.

Most of the noble families have a quota for the Imperial College. As long as they use it, a child in the family can skip the child examination and directly participate in the provincial examination.For example, there is one in Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion, and it must be hanging on Wei Ruolan now.

Another example is that the original quota in Jia's mansion was given to Jia Zhu, and he was selected for Juren in this way. Unfortunately, his health was too poor, and he studied hard in the cold window. He died less than a year after he got married.

In this way, the quota became vacant again. In theory, it would be fine to give it to Wei Xu. Fortunately, he was not stupid and knew he couldn't take it.

"Thank you Uncle Jia for your kindness, but my nephew has learned a lot about the situation in the house these days, so naturally I dare not accept it." Wei Xu hurriedly stood up and declined.

Everyone present couldn't help laughing.

As mentioned earlier, Jia Zhu was originally assigned to the Imperial College in the Jia Mansion, but unfortunately he is now dead; but Jia Zheng still has a son, the "Phoenix Egg" Jia Baoyu.

In this regard, Jia Zheng never concealed it, and he wholeheartedly wanted to train another Juren or even a Jinshi. Unfortunately, all the people present were his own family members, so we really don't know much about this "Phoenix Egg".

"Him?" Even Jia Lian was not polite about it, "It's better for him to act like a baby to his ancestors honestly."

The laughter in Rongxi Hall almost knocked the roof off.

"Okay, Lian'er, pay attention these days and arrange things in advance. I remember that the Tongsheng Exam has passed this year, so it will only be next year." Jia She said with a smile.

"My nephew thinks so too." Wei Xu is not in a hurry, anyway, he will pass next year, and relying on the indoctrination of the jade pendant in the next year's rural examination, it is not a problem either.

There's nothing to say about the rest, it's nothing more than a table for the Eight Dukes and a table for the juniors, but Wei Xu is added to the table for the juniors.

A group of warriors can't be said to be very gentle. Naturally, the audience is drinking and drinking, and all kinds of voices are noisy. Of course, this refers to the old guys, and the younger generation dare not talk nonsense.

The next day, all honorable persons and officials, as long as they participated in the event, all gathered at the designated place at three o'clock in the morning, and set off after the emperor's car arrived.

Iron Net Mountain was not far away, but with so many people, it was considered fast to arrive that night.

It was no secret in the entire capital that Emperor Yongzheng didn't like Iron Net Mountain.

This time, the position was deliberately arranged here. Basically, anyone with a little brain knew that it was aimed at Xungui, which also made Wei Xu's evaluation of him go down a level.

There is no way, but anyone who knows a little bit of history knows that most of the great people who left their names have a characteristic, that is, "emotions and anger are invisible", especially the king.

It's a pity that this Yongzheng Emperor, it didn't take long for everyone to see that he wanted to clean up the nobles, and even made such an obvious loophole for a little personal temper, which can be called petty.

This is no wonder, because when Prince Yizhong was still there, even though the princes below had their own ideas, no one thought they had hope.

If it weren't for special circumstances, Emperor Yongzheng would not have been able to sit in this position for eight lifetimes. Unfortunately, when he was the prince, he never had any training in this area, because Emperor Taihe's energy was entirely on Prince Yizhong.

What's even more painful is that he started his career by relying on civil servants, so he is surrounded by these poor people. If these people have outstanding abilities, it's fine, but there are few real talents.

So, not long after Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne, he started to fight for power. After all, Emperor Taihe didn't really want to go on. The original arrangement was "abdicate without relinquishing power".

Fortunately, if Emperor Yongzheng was really in power, it would have been almost ten years since he ascended the throne, and the lineage of honor and honor would have been in disarray already.

Regardless of whether it is out of love for the Taihe Emperor who has become the Supreme Emperor, or out of maintaining his own power, anyway, he still protects these people, so the Four Kings and Eight Dukes Group still respects him.

This is very unreasonable, because no one thinks that the Supreme Emperor can last forever; but it is also very reasonable, because Emperor Yonghe clearly wants to do something.

Then there is only one way to go to Hei, and make up a few idle chess pieces by the way, such as the Yizhong County King who still calls himself "Yuan Zi Yuan Sun".

Fortunately, probably because they set off at [-] o'clock in the morning, the speed of the team was not bad, and they arrived at the palace that had been arranged in Iron Net Mountain that night.
