Chapter 44: Taking Office (1)

Time flies like a white horse. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

"I don't know if Xiao Qionglin will recognize me when we meet again. An Ran rode on the horse, thinking with some regret. Xiao Qionglin is the son of An Ran, and he is nicknamed "Qionglin", firstly, because he was born on the day An Ran attended the Qionglin banquet, which has the meaning of commemoration. The second is to contain the expectation of Xiao Qionglin, hoping that one day he can also become a jinshi in the examination.

"My lord, there is an inn ahead, should we rest here for the night tonight? It was Yu Li, who went to the front to inquire about the news, pulled the horse rope, dressed in black, and said with a serious face.

"Okay, after such a long journey today, everyone is tired. With a little more effort, I'll be able to rest at the inn tonight. An Ran looked at everyone as if they were dusty, turned his head and said loudly.

Under normal circumstances, after passing the palace examination and having the name of Jinshi, you can become an alternate official. Among these jinshi, only one or three people can directly enter the Hanlin Academy, "non-Hanlin does not enter the cabinet", and eight or nine out of ten cabinet ministers come from the Hanlin Academy, which can be seen that the Hanlin Academy is a place for cultivating high-ranking officials. If the second and third class want to enter the Hanlin Academy, they need to study in the Hanlin Academy for three years and pass the examination before they can become the Jiji of the Hanlin Academy. Of course, in addition, you can also choose to go out and become the Qipin County Order, stay away from the imperial city, and be the ruling party.

Of course, not all Jinshi can have a way out, like the top three, that is, the same Jinshi, whether the family has anything to do or take money, so they can only continue to wait at home when there is a vacancy or go to some poor and remote places, and there is no chance of promotion in a lifetime. And the "same" here is precisely the meaning of "different", referring to the meaning of "quasi-jinshi", and since ancient times, there has been a saying of "the same jinshi, such as Mrs.". Therefore, Tongjinshi is a very embarrassing ranking, and many people also regard Tongjinshi's origin as a kind of unspeakable hidden that cannot be washed away.

This is also the reason why Enron attaches so much importance to Chunfu and does not want to fall into the top three. In any case, he is a person who has lived two lifetimes, although Enron himself has no ambitions, but he is a traverser, although he can't be compared with the other two traversal colleagues, and he can't live too much.

Unlike Shen Zijue, who stayed in Hanlin Academy, An Ran chose to leave the capital and go outside to serve as a county magistrate. First, it is to avoid the increasingly fierce battle for the throne in the capital, after all, Enron is friendly with the five princes, and has also entered the top circle of the capital several times, although the five princes themselves did not show their desire for the throne, but Enron has a cautious personality, and always feels that once he gets involved with the royal people, he may have trouble at any time. What's more, An Ran has found himself being followed more than once, and An Ran feels that he is not a very smart person in the first place, but he doesn't want to be a victim of the power struggle of these big people without knowing when.

Second, An Ran has long wanted to go out for a walk, have a long insight, and take a look at the ancient mountains, rivers, lakes and rivers. What he majored in was the divine soul, walking along the sky, and constantly improving his state of mind through the experience of reincarnation and red dust, and cultivating the Dao heart. What we pay attention to is that the heart changes with the situation, the heart gives birth to ten thousand laws, ten thousand laws return to the heart, the law is born from the heart, the art comes out from the heart, the power is sincere and sincere, the art is realized by the heart, the god is changed by the heart, the life is changed according to the heart, and the fortune changes with the heart.

Moreover, An Ran himself didn't think about how big an official he was, after all, he knew his character very well and was not suitable for the deceitful officialdom at all. And as a literary and artistic young man who has loved ancient culture since his previous life, he will not let go of such a good opportunity to learn more ancient skills now. To be honest, if it weren't for the protection of the relatives he cared about, and in order to make his life more comfortable, he would have only taken the Jinshi merit test and found a place to be a landlord, so it would be better to learn more about the knowledge he likes if he has time.

"A few guest officers are invited, I don't know if the guest officer wants to be sharp or stay in the hotel? . Hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside, Xiao Er knew that there was a guest coming to the door, so he hurriedly greeted him, only to see a cold-faced black-clothed young man on the left, and a sword-wielding man in black on the other side, and a noble man in Tsing Yi in the middle, with outstanding appearance and elegant temperament, he knew at a glance that he was not an ordinary person. Xiao Er hurriedly withdrew his gaze, for fear of annoying the nobleman. He was followed by three men in his prime, leading the horses.

"Welcome guests", An Ran silently recited, and saw three words written on the plaque hanging on the inn.

"Stay. Come to one upper room, five ordinary rooms. Prepare the bathing water and bring it up. Prepare two more tables of meals. This is a deposit, is it enough?" Yu Li took out a silver ingot and threw it to Xiao Er, who hurriedly took it and gave it to the shopkeeper.

"Enough, enough, Xiao Liu still doesn't take the guests there?" the shopkeeper said happily when he saw that there was a big business.

"Okay, guest upstairs, please. Xiao Er threw off the towel and walked in front and led everyone to their respective rooms.

An Ran came into the room, and when Xiao Er brought the bath water, he washed his body first, pulled his muscles and bones, and began to practice the "Six Styles of Physical Training" for a while. Then after eating, I sent someone to ask how far it was from Wei County, where I was going to go, so that I could arrange the journey.

After arranging everything, An Ran sat on the bed and practiced the "Nine Character Formula". Over the years, although An Ran has cultivated all the "Nine Character Formula", except for the first "Pro" word recipe that can be used instantaneously, the other eight-character formulas are somewhat unproficient. As for cultivation, An Ran also regarded it as a necessary thing to do in life, similar to eating and sleeping, and also developed a habit of cultivating whenever he had time.

After practicing all night, when he got up in the morning, An Ran felt very energetic, and after breakfast at the inn, he took everyone to leave early.
