2. Chapter 1 Entering the Capital for the First Time
It may be that he is finally about to leave this place, and he is destined to have some difficulties, his father has been dead for five years, and now he is thirteen years old, and he has finally embarked on a path of no return that he has chosen.
"Sui'er, let's take it with you, when you get to the capital, you still have to take care of yourself."
Sitting opposite was An Sui's second sister-in-law, Qian.
An Sui is the concubine of the family, but it is also the only daughter, the father is called An Yuwen, the word Yuanyi, is the founding hero of our dynasty, named the Marquis of Jin, and is divided into Jin. There are two brothers in the family, the eldest brother Anxu, the word Meng Su, is also a concubine, and the second brother An Xu, the word Zhongxiu, is the real son-in-law, and the main room is from the Prts. After his father's death, the second brother was in charge of the family, not the eldest brother. An Sui was raised by Platts, and her relationship with her second brother is closer.
Qian said, "Originally, your brother was going to come back to see you off today, but I can't get out of the barracks, I'm afraid I can't come back." β
An Sui shook his head, "It's okay, the second brother is back, I must be crying if I leave, and now it's okay if he doesn't come back, which saves me a lot of tears." β
"I didn't really plan to let you go, but I didn't want to pass a female champion in the first exam. It's good now, it's okay if you enter the Hanlin Academy, you are now thirteen cardamom years, but you can resign in three or five years. If you enter the harem but it's troublesome, it's a waste of your talent to learn to be a female historian or something. β
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I didn't know that this female champion was admitted in such an exam, although the female champions of the dead guard are all female officials in the female history, but since the founding of Taiyizu, the female scientific examination is still the first session, Taiyizu issued a decree to allow women to enter the court as officials, if they can really enter the Hanlin Academy, I will also be the first real female official of the former dynasty in my dynasty in the future."
"It's naturally good to be the first female officer, but the more the first, the more difficult it is. But don't be afraid, just by virtue of the talent taught by Sui'er's father, even today's male champion may not be comparable! β
"Sister-in-law, don't exaggerate. I thought I would be able to stay at home for a while, but I was only two months back and leaving. β
Qian smiled, "When you arrive in the capital, remember to write a letter, you don't bring a maid by your side, pay attention to everything, and you can discuss anything with your sister-in-law's mother-in-law's family, although my father is not a big official in Kyoto, he can take care of it more or less." She slightly sorted out the decorations on Ann's head, "Go ahead!" β
It took more than half a month to drive to the capital, An Sui was not in a hurry to get to Kyoto, and also visited some scenic spots along the way, before slowly arriving in Kyoto, which was the third time she went to Kyoto, which became the foot of the Son of Heaven. The first time was with her father, at that time she was just a girl less than three years old, and her memory was also vague, the second time was the scientific examination, she participated in the scientific examination, starting from the scientific examination in Jindi, all the way to the capital to participate in the palace examination, three yuan and the first. Even in the dozens of women's scientific examinations of the dead guard, there were only two female champions who were three yuan and the first, but unfortunately in the end, they could only do nothing like ordinary palace maids. And the third time is now, a total of 36 women have been admitted to the scientific examination, which is a significant reduction compared to the number of men admitted to the scientific examination. Even so, the women's scientific examination is still a major event in our dynasty, not to mention that this is the first time in our dynasty. The current emperor is twenty years old, ascended the throne last year, and officially changed to Yuan Chiwu in the spring of this year.
After An Sui arrived in the capital, he first lived in Qian's maiden home in the capital, Qian's father was an official to the left, was a counselor, and was also the leader of the scientific examination back then, full of economic wealth, originally Taiyi Zu was ordered to be the champion, but he himself told SΓΉ Taiyi Zu, the topic of this scientific examination was done once before, so the name of the champion is not worthy of the name. At his request, Taiyi Zu did not give him the title of champion but he was greatly praised and treated differently, so far, after several ups and downs in the officialdom, he has always been the most favored person among the sons of the scientific expedition.
There are many members of the Qian family, there are seven brothers and four sisters in An Sui's sister-in-law's generation, and the youngest sister is only two years older than An Sui. β
Qian's father smiled, "My niece just came, and she traveled all the way, and you are still not alive." β
"My niece Ann is going to visit her uncle, these times are going to disturb her uncle's family."
Qian's father hurriedly helped her up, "It's all a family, Erniang wrote a letter, we are happy if you can come, and what do you say, just treat it as your own home, you don't have to stick to any etiquette, the seven brothers in the family are still two at home now, and the four sisters can accompany you except for Siniang who is not married, they look okay outside, and there are no rules at home, and you don't have to tell them anything." I didn't know when you came to the scientific expedition before, otherwise you should have let you live at home, no matter how good it is to live in the post station, it is not as lonely as having brothers and sisters at home. No matter how bad it is, there are still two people to accompany you to chant poetry or something, you are a good reader, our Siniang also went to the scientific examination this year, and she hasn't even passed the township exam, you teach her to study well. β
After these words, An Sui's heart gradually relaxed, in the past, the Qian family was also kind and had no shelf at home, and when he arrived at the Qian Mansion, he was even more friendly.
Mrs. Qian said angrily, "I also said that I was wordy, you see, you talk more than me, don't say it, you will know what is in our house after three or five days, your luggage has been moved to the room, it turned out to be empty, next to Siniang's boudoir, let me show you, do you like it or not?" β
"Thank you, ma'am."
"I like this girl, don't call me Mrs. like this, you can call your aunt that."
Although Mrs. Qian has always said that it is simple, in fact, it is simple and elegant, and everything is ready, and even the maids after that are ready.
Mrs. Qian said, "If the luggage is so simple, you know that you are an elegant person, and this style is really out of everyone, which is liked." β
"Aunt doesn't think it's a niece."
"You have a good rest, it's still afternoon, when it's time for dinner, the family eats, and you can see my fourth mother, who is two years older than you, not at all more pleasing than your calmness."
"The fourth sister must be likable, and the aunt will know this look when she speaks."
"Don't talk about it, don't talk about it, you can have a good rest."
