Today, the Hanlin Temple is very free.

He Qian and Xie Ming, the first-class jinshi on the same list, are much older than Jia Hu, and they not only admire this young champion, but also because he is young, he takes care of him on weekdays. Jia Hu also reciprocated, and the three of them came to form a small group in the Hanlin Academy.

This is also an unwritten rule in officialdom, fellow villagers and the same year are always closer than others.

The two were playing against each other, playing chess, and Jia Hu was only rough and sitting, so he sat and watched.

He Qian dropped a sunspot and just ate a large slice of the white. Seeing that the sunspots on the chessboard had the upper hand, Xie Ming pondered on the chessboard, his two eyebrows were tangled together, and the whites in his hands did not fall.

Seeing this, He Qian on the opposite side said to Jia Hu while playing chess pieces: "Brother Jia, the last time Zhao Shi Zhao came to us, seeing that you were not there, his face seemed to be very unswerving. ”

Jia Hu snorted lightly and said, "He doesn't dare to do anything to me yet." ”

"I don't dare on the surface, but there are a lot of small actions in private. Do something disgusting. This is what Zhao Shiyu said when he turned his head and told others, others were busy, but Jia Hu was very good.

Xie Ming interjected, "Don't take his words to heart, who in the courtyard is not bright-eyed, and who is right and wrong, we all know in our hearts." "Jia Hu has nothing to do, it's not because Zhao Shiyu has assigned all his work to others.

Jia Hu said with a smile, "I can't ask for more time to spend on the vast sea of books in this Hanlin Academy, and I want to thank Lord Zhao for taking care of me!" ”

Xie Ming tentatively gave a son, and He Qian followed closely. Seeing that Xie Ming fell into deep thought again, he said: "You can copy books at any time, and there are not many opportunities to get in close contact with the emperor." Brother Jia still thinks of a way to let Lord Zhao not embarrass you. ”

Zhao Shiyu is one level older than Jia Hu, and the official is one level older than Jia Hu, and it is easier to put on small shoes for Jia Hu.

Jia Hu said with a smile: "Brother He is too worried, where is it rare for Zhao to read me." Brother He, look at it, it won't be long before I have no time to spare. ”

Xie Ming neatly threw away the chess pieces, leaned back on the back of the chair in frustration, and said, "No more!" I lost. "After four games and three losses today, Xie Ming was very unhappy.

He Qian suddenly turned his attention back and said with a smile: "Why don't you two go down?" ”

Xie Ming glanced at Jia Hu and became energetic, "Come on, Brother Jia, let's have a game?" He greeted Jia Hu warmly, and the intention in his heart was undoubtedly revealed.

In terms of chess, among the three, He Qian is the first, Xie Ming is second, and Jia Hu is the second. It's time to find a balance.

Jia Hu smiled helplessly, he didn't want to find abuse, so he found an excuse to excuse himself: "It's the end of April, and there are still two opportunities to enter the library this month, and if you don't go, it will be wasted." ”

There are not many opportunities to enter the library pavilion, and only Jia Hu has received this grace in the compilation and following in the Hanlin Academy. The two of them were not easy to stop, Xie Ming said in a regretful tone: "Then you go." Remember to take leave from your superiors. ”

Jia Hu nodded to the two of them and left.

After turning around, he could still hear He Qian's invitation: "Brother Xie, let's talk about another game?" And Xie Ming's refusal, "No, I still have a book to read." Just by imagining, Jia Hu sketched out Xie Ming's seemingly sincere and mellow facial expression in his mind.

First went to the little official to take the throne today, Jia Hu walked to the library and happened to see the eunuch on duty that day. This summer is very scorching, there are only tall palaces in the palace, there are no luxuriant trees, and the palace roads are hot.

He was wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, when he saw the eunuch trotting over, bent down flatteringly, licked his face and smiled: "Master Jia is here." His Royal Highness the Ninth didn't come to the Library Pavilion today, so Lord Jia might as well feel free. ”

Last time, he took Lord Jia's purse, and when he went back, he saw that good guy, in addition to a golden naked, there was a silver ticket of fifty taels. What kind of oil and water can you do as an errand boy in the library library? Eunuch He has been here for more than ten years, and he has never seen such a generous master.

How much money was in the purse, Jia Hu knew in his heart that this father-in-law was too diligent, and it was inconvenient for him to do things. He smiled and said, "My father-in-law is very polite." Presumably, His Royal Highness the Ninth is not always available, and my father-in-law can only inform me when His Highness comes. ”

Who in the capital doesn't know that the Nine Emperors are the most unlearned and unskilled, Eunuch He smiled awkwardly, and while retreating, he said, "The Sprinkle family is abrupt, and I ask Lord Jia to forgive me." ”

Because it was a temporary idea, Jia Hu did not prepare pen and ink, and only brought a pair of eyes.

The eunuch was a man with eyes, and when he saw that he was empty-handed, he led Jia Hu into a side hall. There are several long cases inside, on which are placed pen, ink, paper, inkstones, etc. Eunuch He smiled: "Last time Lord Jia came here, he must be familiar everywhere. Sprinkle the family and don't bother the adults. With that, he withdrew.

The windows here are wide open, and the room is very bright; There was a basin of ice at the foot of the wall; The door was also open, only a large screen behind the door, and around the screen, there were more than a dozen long cases. Jia Hu sat in the position he had taken last time, but in a moment, someone sent him the lone book he had borrowed last time.

This library pavilion was originally built to facilitate the prince who was studying in the palace to come here to read books, so it was very well considered when it was established, and the books that can be bought on the market, no matter which aspect, have prepared several sets.

Later, the emperor felt that the prince should get the best education, and put the ancient and rare books left by the previous dynasty and searched from everywhere, and specially arranged for a literate chamberlain to be on duty in it, so as not to have a naughty little prince break the book.

In order to prevent these books from falling into dust, the emperor also specially ordered that all members of the royal family, regardless of age and gender, could enter the library to find books. Others were granted access by the emperor's grace.

In order to prevent the outer man from colliding with the princess, they are usually accompanied by the chamberlain, or simply have the chamberlain fetch books for them.

The attendants here are all literate people, and it is their job to use, organize, and maintain the books, and arrange the bibliography. Like He Eunuch, he is on an errand outside, responsible for inspecting the exchange of personnel and guiding the path to the cabinet, and even arranging tea and snacks, pen, ink, paper and inkstone are not their turn, and they are more than one head shorter than the inner servants inside, and few people take them seriously.

This is also the reason why he only received a reward from Jia Hu, but he was so attentive to him.

After copying the book for more than an hour, Jia Hu only felt that his eyeballs were very dry, so he stopped his pen and looked outside. A faint figure walked towards this side, and Jia Hu was guessing, I don't know who it was.

Eunuch He knocked lightly on the open door and said, "Lord Jia, the Ninth Highness has come down, do you want to avoid it?" ”

It's rare for the Seven Princes to come to the Library Pavilion twice, but they were all bumped into by themselves? Jia Hu raised his eyebrows, his instinct was directed at him. He smiled again, and this smile made Gonggong He, who was a eunuch, blush for some reason.

Jia Hu slowly straightened his clothes.

Walk! Go flirtatious!
