The sky was bright, and Han Xiufeng rode to the Old Summer Palace with Xiao Shandong.

Liu Shanyang and Xu Jiu entered Beijing with Wang Naizeng, but after arriving in the capital, they had to go to the guild hall first, instead of going directly to the "Houyi Hall".

Because he got up early and rode a fast horse, Han Xiufeng rushed to the gate of the Old Summer Palace to have dinner, and the guards and Zhang Jing of the Foreign Affairs Office were busy eating, and when they saw that he didn't even wear official clothes, he came to ask for an excerpt, and he looked a little impatient. Han Xiufeng had no choice, stuffed two silver tickets of fifty taels, and said a bunch of good things before handing over the invitation.

If you change to a foreign official to go to Beijing to meet you, you can find a place to live first, and then wait for the Ministry of Officials or the Ministry of Rites to lead the introduction, or wait for the emperor to summon you directly.

But he is not a foreign official, nor is he an ordinary Beijing official, so he can't just go. He also stuffed a fifty-tael silver ticket to a guard who recognized Enjun, and asked the guard to help inform the servant Siqing who was on duty in the garden.

After waiting outside the palace gate for about a stick of incense, a civil official of the fifth grade followed the guards out, and as soon as he saw Han Xiufeng, he bowed down and said: "Xiaguan Zhao Yunji greets Lord Han, today is Lord Zhang on duty, Lord Zhang is still talking about you in the morning, saying that you should be able to take office in half a month, I never thought that you would come back so quickly." ”

Wang Naizeng said last night that the current Taifu Siqing is the descendant of Yulun, a scholar of the 24th year of Daoguang, and Zhang Yushu, a scholar of Wenhuadian University in the Kangxi Dynasty, and Zhang Xigeng, a scholar of Daoguang in the 16th year.

One is a clan, the other is a famous family, and now they are all close ministers of the Son of Heaven, Han Xiufeng didn't dare or wanted to offend, so he bowed back, looked at him with a smile and asked: "Brother Zhao, is Lord Zhang busy, is it inconvenient for Xiufeng to go to visit?" ”

"Master Zhang is not busy, but he is ...... It's just that my lord, do you want to find a place to wash up first, change into official clothes, and then go in to see you? ”

"Brother Zhao doesn't know, Xiufeng is still keeping filial piety for his father, so he can only wear this one."

"My lord forgives me, but I really don't know."

"He who does not know is not guilty."

"Your Excellency, let the officials go and ask the guards first to see if they can be accommodating."

"Okay, bother Brother Zhao."

If Han Xiufeng was just Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, dressed like this, no matter how many good things Zhao Yunji said in the Langzhong of the Taifu Temple, the guards at the Dagong Gate would not let him in. But Han Xiufeng is not only Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, but also a "small military machine", the guards hesitated, but still let Han Xiufeng follow Zhao Yunji in.

The gate of the big palace sits in the north and faces the south, there is a large platform in front of the door, and the east and west rooms are also five rooms each.

Han Xiufeng followed Zhao Yunji around the big palace gate, walked into a small alley with a curved ruler behind the big palace gate, and was surprised to find that there were more than 20 court rooms inside.

Seeing Han Xiufeng looking around, Zhao Yunji realized that he was coming for the first time, and said in a low voice: "Lord Han, to the east are the duty rooms of the Zongren Mansion, the Cabinet, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan, the Lifan Academy, the Hanlin Academy, the Zhan Mansion, the Guozijian, the Luan Yiwei and the Dongsi Banner; Let's be here, from here to the division of troops is the household department, the criminal department, the Ministry of Industry, the Qintianjian, the internal affairs office, the Guanglu Temple, the Tongzheng Division, the Dali Temple, the Honglu Temple, the Taichang Temple and our Taifu Temple. ”

"What about the Military Aircraft Department, where is the duty room of the Military Aircraft Department?"

"The military aircraft is inside, and the duty room of the military aircraft department is closer to the emperor than we are to the emperor."

"I see."

As he was talking, the duty room of Taifu Temple arrived.

Zhao Yun apologized to the extreme, and asked him to wait outside for a while, and when he finished reporting, Han Xiufeng straightened his clothes, lifted the curtain and walked in.

I don't know if I don't come in, but when I come in, I find that the room is so small, there is a small wooden kang inside, and there are two public cases and two chairs next to the door, and a civil official in his fifties wearing a three-grade supplement uniform is standing in front of the kang and looking at him with a smile.

Han Xiufeng relieved himself and hurriedly bowed down to greet him.

Zhang Xigeng helped him up with a smile, and said with a smile while beckoning him to get on the kang: "Brother Han, not only did Zhang not expect you to come so quickly, but he also didn't expect you to come here, which really surprised Zhang." ”

"Why did Lord Zhang say this, Xiufeng, as the Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, if he didn't come to see the adult, where else could he go?"

"Go to the military aircraft department, go and meet Peng Zhongtang and Bai Zhongtang."

"Master Zhang is really good at laughing, Xiufeng, the military plane Zhang Jing, is not only named, but also extra walking, the name does not match the truth, but I don't dare to go there."

Zhang Xigeng didn't expect Han Xiufeng to be so modest, and couldn't help laughing: "Others Zhang don't know, brother, you Zhang know, the emperor ordered you to come to our Taifu Temple to be this Shaoqing, it must not be as simple as letting you assist Zhang and Brother Xingdong to manage the racecourse outside the mouth." ”

Sipin Jingtang still left the military machine chapter on the capital to walk extra, as long as it is a Beijing official, it is not so simple.

Han Xiufeng really didn't know how to explain it, so he simply smiled and said, "What errand does the emperor plan to let Xiufeng do, Xiufeng really doesn't know." But Xiufeng knew that the emperor asked you to be the servant of the temple, and he must not just let the adults take care of the two horse farms outside the mouth. ”

Zhang Xigeng thought to himself that this is not nonsense, if he really could still be on duty here even though he only had to talk about the racecourse, and then he thought that if he continued to talk like this, it would become a mutual praise, so he changed his words: "Brother Han, you just came back, please fold it?" ”

Han Xiufeng hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Lord Xie mentioned it, please hand it over, so I thought about coming to meet my lord, and by the way, I will wait here for the emperor to summon me." ”

He said it lightly, but Zhang Xigeng was secretly frightened, after all, the emperor is not someone who can see him if he wants to, even if the governor enters Beijing to see him, he has to wait, if he is fast, he will wait for three or five days, and if he is slow, he will have to wait for ten days and a half months.

Thinking that no matter who is in the Sipin Jingtang, it must be led by the Ministry of Officials or the Ministry of Rites as a rule, but no matter whether Wen Xiang who arrived before or the one in front of him, there was no news in the park that the emperor ordered him to lead the introduction, Zhang Xigeng realized that he could not treat Wen Xiang and the real official in front of him in the future.

Just as I didn't know how to talk, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Immediately afterward, I heard a person shouting outside: "Qianqingmen guard Eunjun, ask to see Lord Han!" ”

Zhang Xigeng looked at Han Xiufeng with a smile and said, "Brother Han, looking for you?" ”

"Master Zhang, then the lower official will go out to meet first."

"Go ahead, we'll talk later."

Han Xiufeng didn't expect Eun Jun to come so quickly, so he bowed down again, and then walked out of the duty room. Unexpectedly, when I came out, not only Eunjun came, but even the big head came.

"Fourth brother......" Seeing Han Xiufeng's face straight, his big head was startled, and he hurriedly covered his newly opened mouth.

Han Xiufeng pulled the two of them into the corner, looked at Zhao Yunji and the other heads of various ministries and courtyards who were looking over here, and said in a low voice: "This is not the place to talk, let's make a long story short." My please fold is written that I am temporarily staying in the Chongqing Guild Hall, and the emperor must have thought that I had gone to the Guild Hall when he saw the excerpt. Xincheng, you go in first and wait, and if you can see your father-in-law in the house, tell them that I am here. ”

Thinking that Wen Xiang hadn't seen the emperor for half a year, Enjun asked in a low voice: "Fourth master, what if the emperor doesn't summon him when he sees the excerpt?" ”

"Then I'll wait here."

"Wait here, it's inconvenient here!"

"I'm Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, what's inconvenient about being on duty in Taifu Temple?"

"Fourth master, you misunderstood, I mean there is no place to wash here......"

"You don't care about this, tell the father-in-law of the internal affairs office that I'm here, and you can go back quickly. As for eating, drinking, and sleeping here, I'll figure it out on my own. ”

Eun Jun was already shrewd, and he knew very well that Han Xiufeng had a reason for doing this, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Fourth master, I am more familiar with you here, or I will accompany you to the guard duty room first and introduce you to a few friends." ”

"No, don't stay here for long, go back quickly."

"Obedience."

"Fourth brother, then I'll go first?"

"Let's go."

After sending away Enjun and Datou, and returning to the duty room of Taifu Temple, Zhang Xigeng asked curiously: "Brother Han, is it summoned by the emperor?" ”

"Where do you want to go, please An Zhegang handed it over, even if the emperor summoned it, it wasn't so fast, the two just knew each other before, and they came to say hello when I heard that I was back in Beijing."

"It can't be that you want to beat your brother, your autumn wind, right?"

Han Xiufeng smiled bitterly: "They know that I was worried about returning to my hometown before, and I was not released as an official, and they know that I am very poor, so how could they beat my idea, they really just came to say hello." ”

"I haven't seen you for more than two years and still remember you, I know that my brother is back and I feel like I'm coming over to say hello, which shows that these two can make friends."

"What the adults say is very true, and now that the world is declining, there are fewer and fewer people like them."

……

If you are admitted to the imperial examination, you can also recite poems or talk about whose splendid articles. But Han Xiufeng was born as a donor and has never read a few sage books. Zhang Xigeng chatted and chatted, he really didn't know what to talk about, so he simply found a way to leave Han Xiufeng and go to Guanglu Temple to wait for the yamen's duty room.

Han Xiufeng didn't sleep much last night, but today he rushed to the road all morning, he was tired and sleepy, and he fell asleep on the public case.

Zhao Yunji was respectful and respectful on the surface, but he really looked down on Han Xiufeng in his heart, and felt that Han Xiufeng was a lucky villain, not only did he not call Han Xiufeng when he left the class, but even asked the staff who came to take over not to disturb Lord Shaoqing's rest, Han Xiufeng slept until late at night, and was still awakened by the cold.

Seeing that Zhang Xigeng was gone, Zhao Yunji didn't seem to be there, only a short civil official curled up on the wooden kang and fell asleep, and then thought that the palace ban could not light the lamp, nor could he move around, so he simply took out a cotton jacket from the package and put it on, leaned on the chair and continued to sleep.

I had slept all afternoon, and I couldn't sleep anymore, so I closed my eyes and recuperated until there was a noise outside, and realized that it was almost dawn, and the officials on duty at the yamen such as the various ministries and the General Administration Department were busy getting the folds, so they walked out of the duty room and came to the palace gate, said hello to the guards guarding the door, and confirmed that they could still come in after going out, and then went to the breakfast stall set up by the eunuchs to eat a bowl of freshly wrapped and cooked dumplings, and drank a bowl of hot dumpling soup.

After eating and drinking, he was about to ask where he could wash, when he saw two figures waving desperately diagonally opposite. Han Xiufeng felt a little strange, and walked over and knocked on it, only to find that it was Xiao Shandong and Feng Xiaowhip.

"Fourth master, we will see you as soon as you come out, but there are all officials on the other side, we don't dare to shout or go over, we can only do it here in a hurry!"

"Didn't you see it," Han Xiufeng patted Feng Xiaowhip's arm, then looked at the carriage behind him and asked, "Why are you here, and why are you here so early?" ”

Without waiting for Feng Xiaowhip to speak, Xiao Shandong said eagerly: "Fourth Master, it was Mr. Wang who asked us to come over, as soon as we went back yesterday afternoon, Master Wen and Mr. Wang sent me and Xiaowhip over quickly." There was dry food in the car, a change of clothes, and a bucket of water. It's just that there's nowhere to boil here, and the water is a little cold. ”

Han Xiufeng said with a smile: "Cold water is cold water, it's already very good to be able to wash your face." ”

Xiao Shandong helped Han Xiufeng into the carriage, and continued: "Master Wen originally planned to come to be on duty today and wait with you, but after thinking about it, I felt that it was not suitable, so I wrote a letter and asked us to bring it to you." ”

"Letter, inside, in the package of changing clothes."

"Got it."

Han Xiufeng washed it hastily, changed into clean clothes, and returned to the door of the duty room of Taifu Temple, the sky was already bright, and seeing that there was no one outside, he simply took out the letter by the faint light and read it.

Wen Xiang didn't say anything else in the letter, all of them apologized.

felt that the errand was not done well, so that the "Houyi Hall" had no saints, and felt that Han Xiufeng was suffering and didn't know when he was going to suffer, all because of him.

Han Xiufeng sighed secretly, put away the letter and walked into the duty room, pulled out a chair and sat down, and then closed his eyes to recuperate.
