Chapter 50 Section VI

"My lord wants to recruit that Sima Mengqiu into the shogunate?" After resigning from everyone, Pan Zhao asked with a smile. Shi Yue nodded and said with a smile: "It's rare for me to meet him. It's fine if he doesn't mention the name Sima Mengqiu. Speaking of which, both Li Dunmin and Chai Guiyou have written letters recommending him." Now let's briefly talk about this person's affairs in Jianghuai said. "It seems that he is a caring person." Pan Zhaolin said with a smile. "I wrote to Mr. Zizhan and asked two people. One is this Sima Mengqiu, and the other is Cai Bian. Mr. Zizhan also knows this person. He is very close to a monk in Lingyin Temple. I will see him later. His name is not included in the list of Gongsheng students, so it is because he did not intend to take the imperial examination." Shi Yue gently pushed aside the willow branches on the side of the path, and he was far away from the gymnasium at this time, and Baishuitan College seemed very quiet .

Pan Zhaolin pondered for a while, then Fang said: "Be careful, if it's not the person, don't solicit it easily." Shi Yue was noncommittal, he knew that Pan Zhaolin was afraid that the censor would gossip.However, he has known about the talents of Zeng Guofan's shogunate since he was a child. Could it be that the people in Zeng Guofan's shogunate are all capable of talking to each other?The way to govern is to have conspiracies and schemes. The key is to have ability. If you know that you are a talent but dare not use it, what great things can you accomplish?He said in his mouth: "I saw that Sima Mengqiu firstly did not seek a background in the imperial examination, and secondly, he did not make friends with wealthy families. Only these two points show his ambition and strength."

Pan Zhaolin knew that Shi Yue had made up his mind, so he stopped talking, and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, things of a kind flock together, and people are divided into groups. Sima Mengqiu's friends should not be ordinary." "I hope so, but Wu Conglong and Fan Xiang's eyes are eager, and the help in the future is also above the court, not in my shogunate." Shi Yue smiled, he saw too much with that kind of eyes . Pan Zhaolin curled his lips disapprovingly, and said: "An eighth-rank Jinshi might be a ninth-rank scholar. If he is not a Jinshi and ranks, he will go to other counties to start from the chief secretary and county lieutenant, and be promoted according to the department. What year and month will he be promoted?" One of the reasons why the new law caused dissatisfaction was that Wang Anshi used it more heavily as long as people said the new law was good, and simply pulled out too many speculators who were lucky. It was too early for these two people to have a chance to enter the court. very."

In fact, at that time, it was a common practice for important officials of the court to recommend one or two people.Besides Wang Anshi, Feng Jing, Wen Yanbo, Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu, and even Shi Yue, who hasn't done it?The two brothers Lu Huiqing set up the imperial court, and Chen Yuanfeng brought it to the Weapons Research Institute; Shi Yue also promoted a Tang Di.And speaking of it, Shiyue was the fastest to enter. In three years, he was the fifth rank. It cannot be said that there was no such thing in history—there were three moves in three days in the Song Dynasty—but it was very rare after all.

Shi Yue smiled slightly and said: "Although what you said is reasonable, it is still beneficial for the country to have more talents. Besides, if they are really talented, they may not necessarily have to be let go to Taichang Temple to be a minister of worship Officer, can't I do it?"
