Chapter 244: High Up

Shen Pian and they ate about the same, and took advantage of the fact that Boss Xu gave them to the guests, and did not notice them, hurriedly left the silver on the table, and left quietly with dexterous steps.

Although Boss Xu said that he wanted to invite them to dinner, how could Shen pity them really not pay.

After all, this money is nothing to them, but it is what Boss Xu wants to use to support his family.

She received her intentions, but the money that should be paid must be paid.

Shen Lian and Ning Qingming walked out of the noodle shop, but saw that the scholar they met before was taking out the money bag, pouring it into the palm of his hand, and carefully counting the copper plates and the few broken silvers.

When he had counted them, he put them back in his pocket, carefully put them away, and sighed.

Shen Lian thought for a moment, then stepped forward and patted the scholar on the shoulder.

The scholar was startled, and after turning his head and seeing Shen Lian, he breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled with a slightly red face, "Miss Shen, do you have anything to do with me?" "This girl is Miss Qianjin at first glance, and he is completely a person of two worlds, for him it is a high, untouchable existence, for the other party to make friends or something, he can't think of it.

"Little scholar, are you short of silver?" Shen Lian asked with a light smile.

Hearing the uncle say that every time he only eats clear soup noodles, she knew that he was not rich, and the scene just now made her understand that this scholar was not only afraid that there was not much money, but that he was about to spend all the money.

Although she is not a great good person, she can't turn a blind eye to these things she encounters, after all, she knows very well the powerlessness and sorrow brought about by poverty.

"Thank you Miss Shen for your kindness, but Xiaosheng is not short of silver taels, so he doesn't need Miss Shen's gift."

The scholar's face changed slightly, and he said with a red face.

Although he couldn't even afford to pay for the house, and he knew that the girl in front of him was a well-known good person in the capital, whether it was out of self-esteem or something else, he just didn't want to accept her charity.

"What are you thinking, Miss Ben is not panicked with a lot of money, she has to give people silver."

Shen Lian glanced at him and said unceremoniously, "Miss Ben wants to introduce you to a job, the monthly reward is not high, ten taels of silver a month, but you can eat and live, are you interested?" She is very aware of the temperament of these scholars, who pay attention to high and noble, and gentlemen do not bend their waists for five buckets of rice, so of course she has to think of a way to let him get the silver, and she doesn't think it is her charity.

This stupid scholar is not a bad person at first glance, and she blushes even if she tells a lie, but she really wants to help him.

When the scholar heard Shen Lian say this, he was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated for a moment before asking, "I don't know what Miss Shen is talking about?" Although he felt that Shen Lian was trying to find a way to give him charity, he was really short of money now, so he asked, if it was just Shen Lian who casually found a reason to give him money, he would refuse.

If Shen Lian really wanted to introduce him to a job, although he was embarrassed, he would accept it, after all, a penny is difficult for a hero.

"There is a junior apprentice in my rejuvenation hall that I plan to train as a future treasurer, but that child was born poor and has not studied much."

Shen Lian said with a smile, "I see that you are dressed like this, you should have entered Beijing to take the exam and prepare to participate in next year's scientific examination." ”

The scholar nodded and said, "Xiaosheng is indeed here to catch the exam." ”

He originally thought that the money he had prepared was about the same, but he didn't expect that the inn in the capital was so expensive, he only stayed for a few days, and there was not much money left.

Shen Lian said again, "Your job is not difficult, that is, to spend one hour every day to teach me that elementary school apprentice to read and hyphenate, for you, it should be possible." ”

Wei Tianqiang has been an apprentice in Huichun Hall, but he is still filial and clever, and she also has the intention of finding someone to teach him to read, but she has never met the right one, and now she meets this stupid scholar, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

"If it's just literacy and hyphenation, Xiaosheng can do it."

The scholar was also relieved when he heard this, and hurriedly said.

Although he wants to make money, he is also afraid of delaying his study of poetry and books, and he only needs a Shi Chen's job on this day, and he can also eat and live, which is really suitable for him.

"Okay, then you go back and pack up your things, just go directly to the Rejuvenation Hall, I will explain, the child you want to teach is called Wei Tianqiang, you can find him by yourself."

Shen Lian saw that although the scholar was tall but not pedantic, he also smiled.

The scholar turned around and was about to leave, but Shen Lian stopped him again, "By the way, what's your name?" The scholar turned around and saluted Shen Lian, "Xiaosheng Han Wenhui has seen Miss Shen. ”

Before the temple.

Yin Chen was dressed in white clothes, his long black hair was coiled into a bun, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his expression was solemn.

After a while, Yu walked in front of the head of the chief manager, a few guards behind him carried a sedan chair, followed by more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs, and the group walked over in a majestic manner.

Everyone knelt down respectfully, shouting, "Greetings to the Holy One, long live the Holy One, long live the Holy One." ”

Yin Chen didn't kneel, it was equivalent to the manager opening the sedan curtain, and Yin Xinxuan, who was dressed in a dragon robe, walked out, and then he bowed and saluted, "Meet Brother Wang." ”

Yin Xinxuan stepped forward and helped Yin Chen up, and said with a smile, "You and I are brothers, where can you be so polite, today is a big day for you to perform a weak crown ceremony, you are the protagonist!" ”

"Thank you Brother Wang for your trouble, Brother Wang has always been busy with government affairs, and he has to worry about Brother Wang today."

Yin Chen also said with a smile.

"This is what I should do as a brother, Chen, you don't have to be polite to Brother Wang, if you are too polite, it will be angry."

Yin Xinxuan said jokingly.

Yin Chen also smiled and stopped talking.

Yin Xinxuan waved his hand, motioned for everyone to get up, and instructed Yin Chen a few words of etiquette that needed attention, comforting him not to be too nervous, looking like a caring brother.

"The auspicious time has come."

A eunuch looked at Shi Chen, and then shouted in a sharp voice.

Yin Xinxuan, who was standing beside Yin Chen, looked solemn, and said to Yin Chen, "Shi Chen has arrived, Chen will come with me." ”

Yin Chen followed behind Yin Xinxuan and slowly walked into the Taimiao, he knelt down on the futon, and Yin Xinxuan picked up the sacrificial text that had already been written and read it aloud.

First to sacrifice to heaven and earth, and then to sacrifice to the ancestors, Yin Chen's expression was solemn, and his actions were regular.

Immediately after that, the crowning began, and one of his royal uncles stepped forward with a crown made of black linen in his hand, crowned him, and said a few words of blessing in his mouth.

After the uncle went down, another uncle stepped forward with a leather made of white deerskin, crowned him again, and said a few words of blessing in his mouth.

Finally, one of his royal grandfathers, holding a red and black crown, crowned him one last time and said some words of blessing again.

After the crowning was completed, Yin Xinxuan asked the guests to go to the banquet, and he took Yin Chen to meet the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother sat on the chair, looked at Yin Chen, who was dressed in white and wearing a crown, and said with some emotion and some joy, "Okay, it's good, from today onwards, my Chen'er will be an adult." ”

Yin Chen kowtowed to the Queen Mother and said respectfully, "The child is grateful to the Queen Mother for her years of nurturing." ”

The Queen Mother accepted this gift in a dignified manner, and then spoke, "Get up, Chen'er, you remember, from today onwards you will be an adult man, you must no longer be willful and reckless as before, and you must be a good man with dignity and integrity!" Because she felt a little indebted to Chen'er, she had always indulged Chen'er, and at this time, seeing that he had finally grown up, her heart was both relieved and emotional, hoping that he could achieve something, but secretly worried.

"Thank you for the teachings of the queen mother, and the child will remember it in his heart."

Yin Chen respectfully agreed, and then got up.

Yin Xinxuan said with a smile, "Queen Mother, don't worry, although Chen has a stubborn temperament, he has always been kind-hearted and intelligent, and he will definitely be able to make some achievements in the future." ”
