Move your mouth on the top and break your leg on the bottom. Xu Yuan has been busy wearing the stars and the moon these days, and he has to go to the morning court, looking at the eyes of those old ministers, life is really difficult. He sighed in his heart, but if he didn't say a few words at that time, he wouldn't be tired like this now. Ren Qiu is also at a loss here, he is eye-catching wherever he goes here in Jingcao, and there is no shortage of self-recommendation, but he is not very satisfied, after all, he is not sure who is more suitable for what position. After wandering around aimlessly for two days, he met Roy, who had come to ask for someone.

Speaking of the second-in-command, in fact, there is no first-in-command, and there is no one working below, the emperor's wedding has given him a headache, and now he doesn't give it to others, although he is afraid that Ren Qiu is the founding general, but he still comes hard. "General Ren!" Ren Qiu looked back at him, although he didn't like this slick guy of the two dynasties, but the mission to Mongolia was also something that people admired. "Luo Shilang, I don't know what to say?" "General Ren, it's like this, if you don't know the details of these people, you can bring the people from the Ministry of Officials to come and choose together." This Ren Qiu had forgotten, and he touched his nose awkwardly: "I know, is there anything else?" "If General Ren is free now, the lower official is willing to take General Ren to a place to have a look, and there must be people here who the general wants to see."

"Hanlin Academy." Ren Qiu stood at the door of the Hanlin Yamen, looking up and reading the words on it, looking at Roy with a mysterious smile on his face. Without waiting for him to continue selling Guanzi, he walked in, and the people inside were busy back and forth, and when Ren Qiu saw that no one took care of him, he was also curious, so he found a corner where no one was there and sat down silently to observe them. The place is magical, no one complains, no one is lazy, everyone is doing their errands in silence. Occasionally, someone raised their heads and saw Roy: "Luo Shilang! How dare you come! Everyone raised their heads one after another, saw Roy with a smiling face, and gritted their teeth one by one: "Didn't you say that you would take us to the desert to see the scenery?" How did I get there to negotiate with the Mongols, and I almost lost my life there. "How can we do such an insulting thing? Didn't you say we just wrote official documents? But those barbarians raised us in captivity like pigs and dogs, and even changed our clothes and were watched, how could we see the scenery of the desert? "There is a lack of food and clothing all day, and the imperial court has not prepared much money for us at all, I even have to bring my own dry food, there is not much in the first place, and Gyeonggi grain and rice are expensive, I can eat half a year's income of my family on this trip, give money!"

Roy accompanied him with a smiling face: "I know the difficulties of all the brothers, and I also ask you to accept my difficulties." Lord Liu, why do you say the Mongols want to kill you? It's not that you wrote a poem saying that people were rude and were seen by others, and I saved your life; Master Li, why do you say that people have fenced us up? It's not that you drank too much wine and burned other people's military tents, and we almost lost our lives there, didn't we? There are rules in the army, you can't think of it as being in Hualiu Lane; Lord Zhang, our travel expenses were originally enough, didn't you almost starve to death in the desert when you saw the disaster victims and spread money and property? Everyone is a lifelong friendship, this little thing, why worry about it? Ren Qiu held his cheeks and watched Roy talk and laugh at the doubts in all directions, it seems that what he said is really not a lie, although these people said that they were a little bit wooden, and the book was a little angry, but it can't be said that they are not a good official.

Speaking of articles, the bachelors are all leaders and Taoists, reasonable and well-founded, compared with this old fritter, they suffer a little. One of them blushed and had thick necks, pointing at Roy and not being able to say why. In this way, the playful Roy swaggered out of the Hanlin Yamen with Ren Qiu. "How's it going, General Ren? These guys are good, right? "The Hanlin Courtyard is so bitterly cold, why don't these officials want to go out?" "You think they don't want to? General Ren, the officials of the Hanlin Academy, are all children of poor families, do you know how poor people can become officials? "Exams. The country has a big test, and if you pass the big test, isn't it a saint's protégé? "The protégé of the saint, at the feet of the Son of Heaven. Most of these young people who have passed the national examination are officials, poor families, who can really let their children study? Even if you read a book and are admitted to the Jinshi, you are only facing two futures: first, enter the family of the powerful, become a new magnate, be supported by them, and walk in the officialdom; Second, if you don't want to get rich, you can only come to this Hanlin Academy to repair your books, and you will be clear and hard all your life, and you won't get out of the way. ”

Ren Qiu nodded, his family background was not good, but he didn't get into the Jinshi exam, so he chose to be a big soldier. His luck is good, his father-in-law has money, and he is willing to use the money to smash him as a small official, and later Liu Huizu saw that he was young and wanted to accept him as a confidant, so he was exceptionally promoted. At that time, the recruits in Gyeonggi did not have much future, most of the people who came to serve in the army were exiles and children of poor families, and there was no chance to climb up. "I ignored what you said, and I will give it to Your Majesty."

In the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor looked at the excerpts in any autumn and smacked his lips frequently. The chief chamberlain next to him would have misunderstood, and poured three cups of tea in a row to make Zhao Qian stare at him: "Do you want to support me?" I don't want tea. Go, bring me any autumn. When I arrived at the Qinzheng Hall in the autumn, I always felt uncomfortable: "Your Majesty." "I've seen your recital, it's feasible." Then he waved him out, which made him scratch his head. What does this mean?

When the new emperor ascended the throne, according to the rules, no matter which post became a new official, he had to burn one or three fires. Chai Zhaoqian is no exception, the court's temptation of various ministers is just a small foreplay, this farce made him deeply aware that it is not that he has great power after becoming the emperor, but that there are always people in front of him and use some high-sounding truths to block his life. This first fire seems to be about to burn on the heads of these powerful people, who have been the shadow of the court for many years, using their protégés and relatives to control every major event in the court. Zhao Qian originally wanted to discuss this kind of thing with Ren Qiu, but the stakes were so high, I am afraid that the news would have reached their ears long ago.
