Chapter 157: Workplace Elite (Thank You, Fox)
Nie Zhiyuan was in third place in the team, and slowly walked in with his head slightly bowed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There were ten people in a row, Lan Jing saw the last one from the first, she knew two of them, Qin Tongxi was worthy of being a relative of the emperor, she was not nervous at all, and even secretly greeted her.
Lan Jing thought that the next step should be to test their knowledge, but he didn't expect the emperor to ask them one by one where they lived, who else was in the family, and how hard it was to study.
Lan Jing, who was a little sleepy when he heard this, looked left and right, and found that everyone looked like they were asleep with their heads down, thinking that they were in the crowd anyway, and they were relatively backward, so they simply lowered their heads and closed their eyes to recuperate.
I don't know how long it took, anyway, Lan Jing had been wandering for a while, and she didn't react when she suddenly heard a voice "Where is Tang Aiqing?"
When the words sounded a second time, someone suddenly reached out and pushed her.
She hurriedly walked out of the crowd and arched her hand: "Weichen is here." β
After the emperor saw her, he leaned forward slightly and said with a smile: "What does Tang Aiqing think of them?"
Lan Jing glanced at them quickly, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, their jade tree is in the wind, and their heroic appearance is extraordinary, Weichen thinks it is very good, but it is a pity that Weichen does not have a sister, otherwise he will definitely snatch one back to be his sister-in-law." β
The emperor laughed when he heard this, and he also laughed underneath.
Lan Jing didn't think she said anything funny, so she gave a thumbs up to the officials present in her heart, she was really a group of workplace elites.
After the emperor stopped laughing, he sat upright and looked at Lan Jing and said, "Aiqing doesn't have a sister, but there are still many cousins, do you think it's the best?"
Hearing this, Lan Jing stepped forward, "The emperor said that there are many cousins in Weichen's family, so don't be limited to just choosing one, and let me be my cousin-in-law." β
The emperor nodded, withdrew his gaze from Lan Jing, looked at the candidates below and asked, "Do you have a marriage contract?"
There was silence for a while, Nie Zhiyuan thought that he would start answering from the top of the list, but seeing that none of them reacted, he hurriedly knelt down, "The student already has a fiancΓ©e at home." β
The emperor didn't look at him, but then asked, "The others don't have a marriage contract?"
Qin Tongxin took a step forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the student already has a favorite woman. β
"Oh, you kid has a crush, is that the daughter of that family?" the emperor asked with interest.
"Your Majesty, it is Qian Qianqian, the concubine of Uncle Qian Wanli. Qin Tongxin replied.
Because the two families are world friends, he has known Qianqian since he was very young, she is smart and cute, obviously a northern woman, but she has the gentleness of a southern woman without losing the coolness of a northern woman, in short, he likes her very much.
Lan Jing was a little surprised when she heard this, she didn't expect this kid to have a favorite girl, she really couldn't see it.
The emperor obviously didn't expect it, but what he couldn't think of was who Qian Wanli was, so he turned his head to look at Gonggong Gui beside him.
Gonggong Gui hurriedly said softly: "Qian Wanli is the sister-in-law of Mrs. Qian, and he is now serving as a county guard in Mingyang County. β
"Mingyang County Guard, it's the right door. The emperor rubbed his fingers and whispered a few words.
Qin Tongxin was fine just now, but now seeing that the emperor didn't say anything more, he was a little anxious.
He will take the opportunity to explain to the emperor that there is actually a reason.
The queen mother looked for his mother several times, and secretly said that she wanted to marry her niece to him, and her mother told him, before she thought that she was concentrating on hard study as an excuse, but now that the exam is over, her mother said that if the queen mentions it again, she can't refuse.
Not to mention that he has a favorite person, even if he doesn't, he doesn't want to marry the niece of the queen's mother.
Although the rumors cannot be believed, but there is no wind and no waves, what kind of good girl can be a person who can force the gentleman who invited him into the house to almost commit suicide.
"Intended will" The emperor said and looked at Lan Jing, seeing that she was indifferent, and said loudly: "Tang Aiqing, why are you stunned?"
Lan Jing had already heard the word "will", but she didn't know that she was the person who wanted to help with the draft, so she didn't react.
Seeing that the emperor directly called the name, he hurriedly looked around, and there was no place to write, did she let her write on the ground? Or did she ask someone to bend down and write on her back?
Because she was not sure, she didn't act, but looked at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't understand the process on the first day of being an official, or let someone else write it." β
In fact, she was also a little opposed to the holy decree of marriage, so she wanted to shirk it. Think about Prince and Princess An, most of her life has been ruined because of this holy decree marriage.
The emperor glanced at Father-in-law Gui, who hurriedly got off the stage and walked in front of Lan Jing, "Lord Tang came with the minion, and this matter of the holy decree has always been the responsibility of the academician." β
Lan Jing was speechless, she was just a deputy academician, why should she be in charge? Besides, before she took the throne, there must have been an academician who was responsible for writing the holy decree, just let him be in charge, isn't the emperor afraid that her words are ugly and can't be seen?
Entering the side hall, the side hall is not very tall like an office, there are many tables and chairs arranged in it, the top is a collapse, you can imagine who is qualified to sit on the couch.
Lan Jing found a table and chair to sit down at random, waiting for Gonggong Gui to bring the blank holy decree.
In the meantime, she wondered what she was going to write on the decree, and how had the previous decrees of marriage been written?
Before she could think clearly, the decree was taken. The colorful holy decree is embroidered with auspicious clouds and cranes, and there are silver dragons flying on both sides.
She took the decree with both hands and placed it on the table, and gently stroked it, the texture was soft and silky. After thinking about it, he picked up the pen and began to write.
Seeing that she had stopped writing, Gonggong Gui hurriedly bent down and picked up the holy decree, "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Tang." β
Lan Jing smiled, "It's not hard, do you have to write another one?"
Gonggong Gui was stunned for a moment, "There has only been one holy decree since ancient times. β
"Ah, shouldn't the decree of marriage be pronounced on both sides?"
Gonggong Gui smiled, "I don't think I told Lord Tang in detail, this marriage decree must be announced on both sides, but first go to the man's house to announce it, and then take the decree to the woman's house, and finally the holy decree will stay in the woman's house, and then marry to the man's house." β
"The emperor is so saving," Lan Jing sighed.
Gonggong Gui covered his mouth and smiled, "Lord Tang, please, I'm still waiting for you outside." β
Lan Jing stepped out of the side hall, and her eyes were focused on her, which instantly made her feel like she was coming to lecture.
Habitually smile and nod your head to everyone.
The emperor couldn't help but nod his head appreciatively, he didn't have such composure when he was fifteen years old, and this kid really couldn't see that he was a child raised in the countryside.
Lu Li has been secretly observing this sudden arrival of the prince from outside the palace, watching him calmly face everyone, and he can easily talk and laugh in front of the emperor, and can't help but show a look of inquiry.
Did he really grow up in the monastery, and why hadn't anyone noticed such a person for ten years before?
