The Ministry of Rites is one of the six departments of the DPRK and China, and is responsible for ceremonial music, sacrifices and scientific research. The daily etiquette rules of the hundred officials, the annual sacrifices, scientific expeditions, and the large and small auspicious events in the DPRK and China are all arranged and planned by the Ministry of Etiquette.

The Ministry of Rites is headed by Liu Shangshu, and there are two assistants for waiters. There are 39 officials of the Ministry of Rites at the bottom, and there is also a person in the main book of the Ministry of Rites.

Officials. In charge of the appointment, dismissal, promotion, examination, transfer, and honor of Chinese officials. There is one Shangshu and two waiters in the Ministry of Officials, and there are four divisions. Each division has a chief director, and there are 113 officials.

The priest's work is to consult the two documents, monitor the proper management of the upper and lower officials, and regularly report to the Imperial Historical Observatory.

"Can Hang Yushi understand?" In the Imperial History Observatory, the old official with gray temples and a slight bow was carrying the beginning of the month, while chattering about the introduction, while going to the Classics Pavilion.

"Got it, when will it be reported? Is there a requirement to report the quantity? The beginning of the month asked seriously.

The old official was stunned for a moment, glanced back at the beginning of the month, and said with a smile: "Hang Yushi doesn't have to be too serious, what the old man just said is just a routine." Actually, when you get to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites, you will find that it doesn't have to be this way. As he spoke, he pointed to the room in front of him, "That's the Book Pavilion over there." The rules and regulations of the six parts of the court and the central government are among them, and if you want to see the history of Hangzhou, you can go in and read it, but remember to check it and put it back in its original place. ”

At the beginning of the month, I looked at the place pointed by the old official, and there was a rather dilapidated house in front of me, with three big characters hanging on it, and the handwriting was even slightly peeling. If it weren't for what the old official said, she would almost have thought that this was an ancient site.

"Thank you, uncle." She bowed and thanked her.

The old official waved his hand, "The old man is just fine, walk around more." Not thanks, not thanks. Then he turned and left.

At the beginning of the month, he turned his head and looked at the Classics Pavilion, and sighed quietly. stepped forward and gently pushed the door, and suddenly caused a puff of dust and smoke. Covered his mouth and coughed a few times, how long has it been since no one came? At the beginning of the month, he secretly slandered.

Once inside, she glanced around. There are a lot of collections in the classic book pavilion, including the rules and regulations of each dynasty and temple, the palace rules and palace system in the palace, and the list of officials of the imperial history platform of the past dynasties.

At the beginning of the month, it has not been updated for about seventy or eighty years. In this way, this Yushitai has been "idle" for at least 50 years, right? Thinking about this, I can't help but be gloomy.

At the beginning of the month, I stayed in the Classics Pavilion for almost two hours, and when I left, I also brought a few books of the Rites and Officials' Statutes. Naturally, this news quickly spread to Min Shuo.

"And took two statutes with you?" He raised an eyebrow, a little surprised.

"Yes. Nothing else. The piano student beside him said. What do you think? ”

"Taking the initiative to understand government affairs, this matter can be said to be good or bad. Let's do this first, let people continue to watch, and report to me if there is any abnormality, has the Ministry of Industry found anything? ”

"No, there has been nothing unusual about the fortifications lately. There is one more thing, there is a detour to Caozhou Daying before King Qingyang to Anyang. ”

"To the barracks?" Min Shuo was stunned, lowered his head and thought for a moment, "It seems that the purpose of his trip to Beijing is not simple." There is no eyeliner in the palace, I don't know how the emperor is now."

"Sir, are you worried that something will happen in the palace?"

"Well, the Queen Mother is going to hold a big sacrifice this time, and the main purpose is to recruit the king to enter Beijing. At the end of the year, the emperor's pro-government also needs to be with the clan relatives, and they will definitely find an excuse to stay in Beijing for several months. In this way, I am afraid that it is easy to have an accident. ”

"So what now?"

"I can only watch it first, let the flying pigeon inform Shang Ying about King Qing's entry into the camp, and he will know what to do with the rest."

"Yes."

In the blink of an eye, it is October, and the DPRK and China are also busy for the upcoming Zhongyuan Festival.

Night, Hangzhou, in the room at the beginning of the month.

"Miss? Why don't you take a break? "Qingdai entered the fragrance inside, and I saw a person sitting in front of the bed at the beginning of the month, holding a piece of something in his hand in a daze." The festival is coming up tomorrow, so Miss should rest early today. ”

"Yes." At the beginning of the month, he answered, but still did not move.

"Miss? What to see? So fascinating. Qing Dai felt strange and stepped forward to investigate, only to see that Yue Yue was holding a jade pendant in his hand, and there was a crack on it. In her heart, she had heard Xiao Xiao mention the marriage contract at the beginning of the month, presumably this jade pendant was a token of kinship.

At the beginning of the month, he came back to his senses, looked at the jade pendant in his hand, and then looked at Qing Dai with a slightly surprised face, and said with a miserable smile: "Don't you think it's a little ridiculous, I should have thrown this thing away?"

Qing Dai was silent for a while.

"I really should throw it away, but I just can't bear it." She stroked the jade pendant in her hand, "They left early, and they didn't leave me much, but I lost very little." Although Master Xu said that, I was always a little unwilling."

"It is precisely because of the parents that Miss cherishes this marriage very much." If Qingdai was naturally difficult to understand such behavior at the beginning of the month before, but now that her parents have died, she can naturally get close to her feelings at the beginning of the month.

"Tomorrow's festival, I should be able to see Xu Yushi, I'm thinking that if I can, I want to know what he thinks, so it's gone, I always feel uncomfortable."

"Regarding this matter, Miss wants to ask Xu Gongzi face to face?"

"Well, it's better than me thinking about it alone. If he already has someone he longs for, then he will do it. But if he doesn't, I wonder if I can try it," said at the beginning of the month.

"Miss, if you want to go, try it. It's really better than thinking about it. Qing Dai smiled and encouraged.

"Well," with the support, the beginning of the month was naturally a lot more happy, "Then I'd better rest early." With that, he put the jade pendant back in the box and returned to the bed.

Qingdai also went back to the house to sleep after helping her with the quilt.

The next day, early in the morning.

Xiao Xiao is helping the moon to put on the sacrificial robe. Xuanqing sacrificial clothes, plain white belts, Yiying Gu Gui, ribbons and other things. It took a while to put it on.

"I can't imagine how the sacrificial dress can be worn by the young lady." Qing Dai came in with a sacrificial crown, and couldn't help but sigh when she saw the beginning of the month.

"That's right, Miss looks good in anything." Xiao Xiao said proudly.

Seeing the two of them say this, Yue Yue on the side couldn't help but smile, "You two don't talk nonsense, hurry up, it's not good to be late for a while." ”

"Whoa." When the two of them heard this, they hurriedly tossed it again, and waited for everything to be cleaned up. The hour was almost up, and at the beginning of the month, he looked at himself in the bronze mirror and nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to get up and go out, he suddenly looked at the wooden makeup box on the dresser. After hesitating for a moment, she opened the makeup box, took out the jade pendant and looked at it.

"Miss?" Xiao Xiao was a little confused by her move.

"It's okay, let's go." She smiled, tucked the jade pendant into her sleeve, and left.
