The two horns of the old scalper have been cut off, not because of Lin Haoran's hand, but because it was already the case when the scalper was selected. Despite this, it is still wrapped with red cotton.

But I don't know if the scalper is too full, or if he is so lazy by nature, he seems to be slowly led over by two elders. Nothing went wrong, and it hung the plough rope very well.

The official of Honglu Temple praised: "Enter the whip! ”

Yang Bo, the secretary of the military department, had already made preparations and respectfully sent a bullwhip.

Jiajing held the plough in his right hand and the whip in his left hand, two elders led the oxen in front of him, and two farmers supported the plough on both sides, everything was ready. Maybe I haven't felt this kind of ploughing for several years, and Jiajing's eyes are a little happy.

Xu Jie and other important ministers did not dare to take it lightly, and stared at the old cow very nervously, especially Yuan Wei always felt that this cow revealed a trace of demonic energy.

The official of Honglu Temple praised: "Cultivate pro! ”

Jiajing is holding the plow, and the old man in front is pulling the well-behaved ox. The soil in this altar is both loose and soft, and it is still a good plow from Foshan, and Jiajing is actually following behind.

As the oxen pulled the plough forward, the fertile soil was turned over, and the air was immediately filled with a peculiar smell of earth.

Jiajing didn't like the smell of the earth, but he suddenly found that there was some familiar gray incense in the soil, but he didn't know who had spilled it into the soil.

At the same time, the following is the palace music handed down from the Western Zhou Dynasty, the chime bronze chime, Huang Zhong Da Lu, Xiao Sheng reed flute played together, so that the rich festive atmosphere is added here.

The officials under the altar were looking forward to it, not only wanting to take a closer look at Jiajing's dignity, but also worrying about whether Jiajing would have an accident, and he looked like a loyal old minister.

It's just that the high-level of the ninth order is not low, and with Xu Jie and others standing above, they can't actually see Jiajing.

Lin Haoran also stared at the old scalper nervously, although the guards next to him were well-manned and carefully selected this docile old scalper, they were still worried that it would suddenly go crazy.

In this cultivation ceremony, the emperor performs "three pushes and three returns", that is, the emperor has to hold the plow and walk three times, which can be regarded as complete.

Once, twice...... Three times!

Xu Jie and other important ministers silently counted, and when Jiajing came back with the plough for the third time, they saw that the old ox was quietly eating the grass in the hands of an old man, and everyone was greatly relieved.

The official of Honglu Temple praised: "The Son of Heaven is finished! ”

"Master, the water is ready, please go to the palace to wash it!" Huang Jin looked at the dirt on Jiajing's feet and stepped forward loyally.

In fact, this cultivation ceremony is not yet completed, the Son of Heaven needs to climb the viewing platform next to him, and the cabinet ministers and the six departments are to perform the "nine push and nine return gifts" to plow this acre of three-point soil.

Jiajing was slightly surprised to find that although the soil was soft, it was not very sticky to his feet, so that his feet were quite clean, so he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Lin Haoran not far away.

Lin Haoran didn't seem to pay attention to this side, but he helped lead the old scalper.

Details determine everything, even if someone as picky as Jiajing can't help but cast an approving glance at Lin Haoran.

The official of Honglu Temple praised: "Old Xu Ge stepped forward! ”

Xu Jiezheng decided to appear, but when he noticed Jiajing's gaze, he looked at Lin Haoran with vigilance.

Lin Haoran noticed Xu Jie's unkind gaze, but he just faced the first assistant of the current dynasty, although he didn't understand where he made the other party unhappy, he responded with a smile.

The cultivation ceremony is not only a ritual for the emperor, but also for Jiuqing officials.

It's just that these nine qings refer not to the nine qings of the Ming Dynasty, but to the nine qings of the Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty's Tomb Zai, Situ, Zongbo, Sima, Sikou, and Sikong correspond to six departments, and the other is filled by the cabinet ministers.

These officials carried out the "nine pushes and nine returns", completely loosened the seeds of the earthen grain altar, and then carried out large-scale cultivation.

It is worth mentioning that there is not only a soil valley altar here, but also several rice fields next to it, all of which are handed over to Huang Yangmeng, the governor of the right servant of the household department.

The cultivation ceremony is still continuing, and Xu Jie and other court bigwigs began to take turns to carry out "nine pushes and nine returns".

Jiajing took the officials to the viewing platform, where you can clearly see the situation on the Tugu altar, and it is already the turn of Wu Shan, the secretary of the ministry, to support the plow.

Lin Haoran was surprised to find that his cheap father-in-law ploughed the fields decently, but he was far more like a qualified farmer than the thin Xu Jie and Yuan Wei.

It was when he was watching with relish, but Chen Hong came to his side and said that the emperor had called him over.

Lin Haoran was slightly stunned at first, and then in the midst of many envious eyes, he walked to Jiajing's side to salute.

Jiajing is a very smart person, and he knows that Lin Haoran is a meticulous person, but he doesn't intend to break these little things, but says approvingly: "Lin Aiqing, the green words about the cultivation ceremony are quite well written!" ”

There is always a cause and effect relationship between things in the world.

The reason why Jiajing chose to practice the cultivation ceremony in person was naturally not that he, the emperor who was obsessed with cultivation, suddenly attached importance to the agricultural harvest, but when Lin Haoran presented the cultivation ceremony, it was accompanied by a green word about the cultivation ceremony.

It's just that this green word about the cultivation ceremony moved the current emperor, and cleverly linked the cultivation ceremony with the cultivation ceremony, so that Jiajing also decided to practice the cultivation ceremony himself.

"Although the minister has the heart to share the emperor's worries, but the pen is insufficient, this green word is made by Xu Wei, the editor of Hanlin! If the emperor thinks that this person can still be used, he can summon Xu Xiubian into the West Garden! Lin Haoran once again emphasized the source of the green word and recommended Xu Wei.

Jiajing's memory seems to be very good, but he said with a smile: "I remember that Xu Wei was your year, and I was just recommended by you to be the chief examiner of the Guangdong Township Examination!" ”

"This matter is a dereliction of duty on behalf of Weichen, Xu Xiubian is the same subject as Weichen, and it is not suitable to preside over the Guangdong township test!" Lin Haoran is well versed in the way of being an official, even if he takes the initiative to take responsibility.

Jiajing glanced at Lin Haoran with satisfaction, but shook his head lightly and said: "Forget it, the township test is the Ming Dynasty's talent ceremony, let Xu Wei go to Guangdong to preside over the township test first, and then mention it after returning to Beijing!" ”

"Obey the order!" Lin Haoran responded with a slight disappointment in his heart.

However, he also knew in his heart that although Xu Wei was one of the three great talents of the Ming Dynasty, and Qingci had already achieved success, it was not extremely difficult to compete with Qingci masters such as Yuan Wei and Li Chunfang.

The reason why he was able to impress Jiajing with green words this time was because Xu Wei was calculating or unintentional.

It's like giving you the freedom to write a book, you may be able to get good results, but if you define this genre as a game, I'm afraid many authors don't know how to write it.

The ceremony of Jiuqing was completed, and with Jiajing leaving, the cultivation ceremony of Jiajing's forty-second year was successfully concluded.

In this cultivation ceremony, the biggest beneficiary has been Lin Haoran, and many officials have re-acquainted themselves with the ability and political influence of this left waiter of the Ministry of Rites through this cultivation ceremony.

Although it seems inconsequential now, if Lin Haoran wants to be pushed into the cabinet in the future, this will undoubtedly get him a lot of key votes.
