"Li thief, Li thief."

As soon as Li Yan jumped out of the car, Li Jun's cursing was heard, however, before Li Yan could speak, two gold-armored guards came over and made a gesture to take Li Jun away.

"Everyone, everyone, this is a friend, we are used to playing with each other, and we can't hold back for a while, how offended." Li Yan hurriedly defended.

After hearing this, the two guards looked at each other and returned to their original positions.

Li Jun trembled slightly with fright, and pressed his head very low unfreely, but glanced at Li Yan with extremely complicated eyes.

"I don't have to be so lucky next time."

Li Yan mocked in a low voice, and only when he saw that Li Jun had become honest again, he put his mind at ease.

Xindao: It's really a troublemaker, I have to find an opportunity to teach this guy a lesson, it doesn't matter if he dies, it's uncomfortable to always let himself take the blame.

When the dust of a small farce settled, Li Yan raised his eyes and saw that he was in the middle of the empty Weng City, surrounded by high palace walls, red lacquered red gates, golden rings of animal heads, and four corner towers were majestic and magnificent, showing the beauty of classical architecture.

A number of Confucian scholars have gathered under the city gate not far away, Li Yan did not dare to delay time, and said goodbye to Song San and Chen He, the two hurriedly returned the salute, Chen He said: The third brother does not need to worry too much, he has God's blessing.

Li Yan knew what Chen He meant, nodded, and looked at Fan Er again, who smiled awkwardly, with obvious timidity on his face.

Yesterday really scared him, he went back and didn't sleep all night, and seriously did self-reflection.

He Fan Er can use half a year to transform from a homeless person to a prominent landlord, and it is no exaggeration to say that all this is given by Li Yanbai.

Therefore, remind yourself to always pay attention to your words and deeds, for fear of accidentally provoking Li Yan again and going back to a begging life.

"Second Brother Fan, it was me who was wrong yesterday, I apologized to you, if there is something difficult to choose in the business in the future, I will go to Jiuniang, okay?" Li Yan said with a smile.

Fan Er hurriedly bent down and said, "Ouch, don't apologize, the little one can't stand it, whatever you say, everything is up to you." ”

"My aunt and grandmother are very busy, and I don't have time to take care of your Li family's affairs, so it's better to let him go to the teaching workshop."

There was a strange teasing sound of Yan Jiuniang in the carriage.

"Don't listen to her, just look for her." Li Yan retorted at the car window.

Li Bei'er lifted the curtain, and said uneasily: Xianggong should remember what the slave family said.

Li Yan stretched out his right hand, kissed her, and then swaggered towards the city gate.

The moment he turned around, he turned back into a bitter gourd face.

Strategy! What the hell is it......

……

As the saying goes, wealth is nothing but the emperor's family, Li Yan and his party of twenty Confucian scholars followed the old eunuch on the royal road, how can there be half a point of arrogance, all of them look like they have never seen the world, looking east and west, a pair of eyes is no longer enough, I can't wait to grow ten pairs of eight pairs, so that I can look carefully.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, and walking to the door of a palace with red walls and green tiles, the old eunuch suddenly stopped and said in a sharp voice:

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must first study the saint behind the ceremony, there are officials of the Ministry of Rites waiting in the temple, please line up one by one to enter, from now on, your etiquette will be assessed, if you are not qualified, the Ministry of Rites will play to the official family, please face it."

As soon as they heard the assessment, the Confucian scholars immediately restrained their smiles, straightened their waists, and put their hands in front of them, which was very pretentious.

Li Yan glanced around, and when he saw Yang Ruobing with a serious face from the crowd, he felt funny.

Because Li Yan and Yan Jiuniang were angry in the morning, they came out late, and Yang Ruobing left early.

When Li Yan was on the way, he saw that he was surrounded by a group of women, and no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't get rid of it, so he had to keep begging.

I wanted to go over to help, but I was stopped by Chen He and told me that it was a blessing.

After listening to Chen He's story, Li Yan knew that those women were choosing a son-in-law for their daughters.

Every time the gold list is inscribed, some small people in Kyoto flock out.

They picked the Confucian scholars who were on the list, and the poor Confucian "started", like betting on the treasure, and promised their daughters to be married.

Not only that, but they will also subsidize their son-in-law, clothing, food, housing, transportation, personal contacts, etc., all expenses are covered, of course, it is not free, they have their own set of rules.

When the palace test is over, if you can really seal an official and a half-post, it will be regarded as betting on the right person, and then ask for a return.

Of course, it will certainly not be as much as it used to be, as little as three or five times, as much as ten times more.

Li Yan listened, smiled, and said: It's good, you have to go through it.

And now that he saw Yang Ruobing's hair in a messy bun and disheveled, he guessed that he had not found a "sponsor".

Because no investor will let him look like this into the imperial city, since it is a bet, he must pack it, not to mention wearing silk and satin, at least it can help tie his hair in a bun.

Just as Li Yan was distracted, an official of the Ministry of Rites wearing a black hat and sticking out one-foot-long wings on each side walked up to him and scolded:

"When you go up to the court, you have to be focused, you have to pay full attention!"

Li Yan smiled, he didn't care, but he was very interested in the hat on his head, which was the same as the one Sun Monkey wore when he was sealed by Ma Wen, and now he saw it with his own eyes, and felt very ridiculous.

He didn't know that this kind of official hat was commonly known as a long-winged hood, also known as a straight-legged hood.

It is rumored that this official hat was invented by Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty.

After he sat on the dragon chair, he was very uneasy about his colleagues who fought the world together back then, and especially hated the ministers of civil and military affairs who exchanged heads and commented on the government in the court.

One morning, when he was listening to a minister's recital, he noticed that many officials on both sides were whispering and being very impolite.

Zhao Kuangyin was a little annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show his face.

Retreat. He came up with a way to send an edict to add long wings to the back of the veil hat, the purpose of which was to keep the officials at a certain distance, and no longer whisper when going to court, otherwise he would slap the face of the person next to him when he turned his head.

It worked, and it has continued.

Li Yan followed everyone into the hall, and on a long table was placed the temporary cyan court clothes.

The official of the Ministry of Rites said in a loud voice: "Everyone, maybe we will be colleagues in the future, but in the next half an hour, you must listen to Sun, if you don't learn etiquette well, you will not only be punished, Sun will also sit together." ”

Li Yan gritted his teeth and endured the harsh echo, and said in his heart: What is it to shout so loudly!

"Therefore, if any etiquette is not up to par, Sun will never let him offend Long Yan. You have gone through a lot of hardships to get to this point, and I hope to cherish it. ”

"Okay, let's change into the court clothes first, and then teach me to bow down."

Finally, the official surnamed Sun ended the gushing reprimand, and Li Yan felt very uncomfortable when he heard the bowing ceremony.

He hadn't knelt once since he crossed over, and he didn't know if there would be a sense of shame.

Thinking of kneeling non-stop every day in the future, Li Yan couldn't help but shudder, and the idea of being an official was reduced a lot.
