This was a little strange!
The more Fang Xuanling said this, the more Zhang Feng felt that something was amiss.
He had read the old and new books of the Tang Dynasty, so he knew about the division of labor between the three provinces and six ministries in the Tang Dynasty. He also knew about the general ranking of officials and so on. However, as for the examination system of officials in the Secretariat and the promotion criteria, he was not clear about it.
After all, he had transmigrated here before he could study it properly …
Moreover, the things recorded in history were only the guesses of others and future generations about the current management level, as well as their own understanding. It did not represent the real situation.
If it was really like what Old Fang said, that the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Appointments, and even the Secretariat all required qualifications, then …
He didn't have much time to waste on this.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Feng asked, "Is it really like what you said? Don't I think the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Appointments are doing well? "
"Doing well?"
Fang Xuanling sighed and said, "The last time Old Sun looked for you, he probably asked you to go to the Ministry of Appointments, right? You should know the set of rules of the Ministry of Appointments, but it does not mean that all departments need to be evaluated by the Ministry of Appointments. "
Zhang Feng's eyelids twitched and said, "Are the three provinces of the Secretariat excluded?"
Fang Xuanling nodded in appreciation, which was considered as tacit agreement with Zhang Feng.
Seeing Zhang Feng's reaction, he felt that he had a chance. He slapped his thigh and said, "Hey! Look at you, you don't believe your old brother, right? "
"Your old brother is already so old. How can I possibly lie to you? When the day comes when you really go to the Central Secretariat, with the fame and reputation you've accumulated now, it's only a matter of time before you reach the heavens in a single bound. When that time comes, us old brothers will have to rely on you ah! How could I possibly harm you? "
Fang Xuanling continued to persuade him earnestly, "This is all from my experience. You'll be right if you listen to it. This is knowledge that can be used for a lifetime. The way of dealing with people is experience that no amount of intelligence can exchange. Besides, you might as well go outside and ask around. Which one of those who can hold a high position in the court didn't come from the Secretariat?"
"By the way, go back and ask your wife, Jingshu. She knows a lot more than you. Moreover, this matter of being an official, if you don't go to the Secretariat, it'll be a wasted trip!"
Zhang Feng was speechless.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't go. Now that you mention it, I really have to think about it."
This time, Fang Xuanling was really anxious. He was about to do it, but Zhang Feng pulled back at the last moment.
"Fengzi, you have to listen to my advice. If you don't listen to your elders, you'll be at a disadvantage! Besides, you're going to enter the court as an official sooner or later. What's the difference between earlier and later? It's just a position in name! "
The more Zhang Feng listened, the more he felt that there was a big problem. He shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I won't think about it for now. The main task now is to get the phosphate fertilizer. As for other matters, we'll talk about it after the autumn planting. Oh right, I saw that you came with a worried face. We're all brothers. Tell me, why did you come here?"
"This …"
Seeing that Zhang Feng changed the topic, Fang Xuanling knew that it would be pointless to continue. Who was Zhang Feng?
How could he not think of this?
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but sigh and give up.
This matter couldn't be rushed. If he did, things would go wrong.
Fang Xuanling could only think about it and said, "It's because my son wants to come to White Deer College. That's why I brought this matter up."
Zhang Feng couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
That's right.
You said it was your problem. Wasn't it just a matter of one sentence?
Why did you have to talk so much?
This was a long-term matter. It had to be done slowly.
After thinking it through, Zhang Feng said, "I knew it. It's just a small matter. Can't you just ask him to go? Oh right, your son should be the same age as Tie Niu and the others, right?"
Fang Xuanling nodded. "He's a few years older."
Zhang Feng asked again, "Then why haven't you seen him before? It's been so long. That shouldn't be the case. Has he been outside all this time? "
It'd be strange if you could see him.
My son has to clean up your mess every time. How could he have the time to come? Besides, when he's done, how could he have the time to come here?
He kicked Cheng Chumo and the other bastards into Chang 'an University.
If it weren't for the fact that you made such a big commotion, why would he be in such a hurry to stand up?
However, Fang Xuanling didn't dare to say that. He could only smile and say, "Isn't this because I've been busy with my business?"
"Oh right, the sword that Lao Li gave you was escorted back by my son from Longyou Road!"
Zhang Feng couldn't help but be enlightened. "I see. It seems that your kid is not simple. This time, he should be able to do it. However, when you mentioned Chang 'an University just now, I have a new idea!"
Fang Xuanling didn't know what Zhang Feng wanted to do. He asked, "What did you think of?"
Zhang Feng smiled mysteriously. "Nothing. I just thought of something exciting. However, your son probably can't go up the mountain this time!"
"…"
