Chapter 1 Sealing Officials from VII

…… New volumes, new beginnings...... Ask for flowers, ask for collections......

Capital.

Although they didn't sleep well all night, the next day the three of them got up early in the morning. Today I am going to the ministry to listen to the errand, hoping to get a good errand.

"Brother Zhuangyuan, the younger brother will rely on you to cover me in the future." Xiao Pengcheng pulled Shi Bingzheng and said with a pleading face, I really regret that I didn't go to the scientific examination, otherwise it is very likely to win the title of champion.

Everyone was in a nervous mood, no one paid attention to his joke, and directly pulled out as a coachman to rush to the official headquarters.

Although it is the top three in the first class, it is not very useful to enter the head of the official department, and several officials on duty sit together and gossip, and they have no intention of taking care of the three people standing there at all. Everyone's thoughts are the same, don't look at you as the top three, although you are lowly and small, you can be regarded as your predecessors, I think you were also the first to be a jinshi!

"What are the names of the three of you?" Zhengwupin Officials Wen Xuan Qing Officials Shi Lang Zhong Adults got up and greeted.

The three of them hurriedly stepped forward, and according to the ranking, Shi Bingzheng first said: "If you go back to the adult, the student will be Bingzheng." ”

Lord Lang Zhong nodded, sat down on the table and picked up the fold of this morning's order from Lord Lang, which recorded the assignment of the three people.

"Shi Bingzheng, Jinke champion, hehe." Lord Lang Zhong smiled inexplicably, looked up and said, "The errand that Lord Lang gave you was the ink of the household department, and it was also revised by the historian of the Hanlin Academy, and the rank is from sixth. ”

Shi Bingzheng was stunned for a moment, and then sighed. Sure enough, the historian's revision is an idle errand, and although the household department is a real job, it is an official of the eighth grade. This is the tragedy of the first class, although he can directly join the company and become a Beijing official, but it is much worse than the same year that the second class went to the local office.

"Master Xie." Although he felt very sad, Shi Bingzheng still bowed respectfully, and stretched out his hand to take the voucher handed by Lord Langzhong, which was a certificate for waiting to receive an official robe and go to the yamen to serve.

"My lord, student Wang Siming." On formal occasions, although Wang Siming spoke official words very awkwardly, he still learned to speak in Beijing, although it was a little nondescript, but it would not arouse the disgust of Lord Langzhong.

"Wang Siming, Jinke is on the list, they are all good talents." Lord Lang Zhong still had the same expression just now, and then read: "The errand that Lord Lang gave you is to inspect the school of the Ministry of Household and the School of Hanlin Academy, and the rank is seventh. ”

These two positions are half a level lower than Zhuang Yuanlang, and Wang Siming has nothing to say, so he hurriedly thanked him and took the slip.

"Student Shen Chongming." Seeing that both of them are such official positions, Shen Chongming couldn't help but worry, the champions have been mixed up to this point, so what kind of situation should he be miserable for this Tanhua?

"Tanhua Shen Chongming...... The Ministry of Officials Examines the Officials and Officials Walking? Lord Lang Zhong was stunned, what kind of title is this, I haven't heard of it in the official department for nearly 20 years.

"My lord, what kind of errand is this to take the official test?" Shen Chongming was also very puzzled, he had also consulted Gao Gong in detail about the details of the official position, but he had never heard of such a title? And it sounds a bit similar to my errand in the Ministry of Works last year. Isn't it an internship like the next generation?

"This ...... This is an official position from the seventh grade, and you can take the slip and ask Master Zhang with the certificate later, and he will arrange it for you. Lord Langzhong didn't know either, but in order not to lose face in front of the newcomer, he pushed the matter to Zhang Langzhong, who was the official of the examination office.

"Master Xie." With a hint of doubt, the three of them retreated.

"Brother Shen, it can't be that something went wrong, why don't we ask again?" Shi Bingzheng looked at Shen Chongming's brows furrowed into a pimple, and couldn't help but say.

"No need, don't you know when you go, hehe." Shen Chongming smiled and led the two of them to receive the official robes.

Being in the yamen of the Ministry of Officials, Shen Chongming was also convenient, and insisted on sending away Shi Bingzheng and Wang Siming, Shen Chongming held the official robe and asked a few miscellaneous servants to find the location of the official office.

The Beijing officials are very idle, especially the Beijing officials who are not of high rank, and they get together to bask in the sun after every day, and they are not comfortable living a good life.

"Ladies and gentlemen, student Shen Chongming is the new walk of the company, I don't know if Lord Zhang is there?" Shen Chongming stood aside and asked with a humble face, although it can be seen from the official uniform that the official position of these guys is not as high as his own, but it is better to keep a low profile when he first arrives.

When several officials who were looking at him with strange faces heard this, they hurriedly stood up and said in unison, "The lower officials have seen Lord Shen." ”

As for Shen Chongming, the big guy heard what Master Zhang said this morning. It turned out that this person was Shen Chongming, the prisoner of the country who made a fuss in the capital last year, and his unprecedented walking position was also quite weird, I heard Lord Zhang say that Lord Shilang told him not to treat him as a subordinate, to take good care of him, and to carry him well!

In this way, everyone knows that the new person's walk is not simple, and he naturally has to be very polite when he meets for the first time.

"Lord Shen, Lord Zhang is in the back room, and the next official will take you there." One of the officials said with a flattering face.

Being so messed up by them, Shen Chongming was even more puzzled about his position, could it be that it was outrageous? Thinking about it, he nodded and smiled: "There is this adult." ”

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the merit assessment of officials all over the country, and on this basis, several chief officials of the Ministry of Gong determine the promotion and demotion of officials. Therefore, the officials who can get mixed here, no matter the size of the position, are all caught with a lot of silver, provided that you have the courage to take it!

Zhang Langzhong's real name is Zhang Changping, and he has been sitting in the position of the first-class official of the company for more than 20 years, and now he is a figure of his grandfather's generation.

"My lord, the new walking Lord Shen asks to see you." The officer leading the way stood in front of the door and bowed.

Zhang Langzhong, who was squinting, opened his eyes slightly and asked, "Who is it?" "Mr. Zhang, who is almost 50 years old, is a little in good spirits, and he has to sleep well every day after o'clock.

"It's the new Walking Lord Shen." The official hurriedly said, but he was wondering if he was at this age when he got into the position of first-class judge, but he was afraid that when he married a concubine, he could only watch.

"Ah, please." As soon as he heard that it was Shen Chongming who came, Lord Zhang hurriedly sat up straight and straightened his official hat.

"Student Shen Chongming pays a visit to Master Zhang." Shen Chongming didn't dare to look at it, and bowed directly.

"Hehe, Lord Shen, hurry up and excuse me, you student's self-proclaimed official can't afford it." Master Zhang got up and smiled. For Shen Chongming, he knows more than his subordinates outside, this is the proud disciple of the tall man, and he has a deep background.

"The adults are too modest, the students are new to the school, and there are many things that will be asked to you in the future." Shen Chongming looked up at Zhang Langzhong and said with a smile.

The body is a little fat, and he should be in his early forties from the physiognomy, but the gray hair shows that this Zhang Langzhong has experienced many years of intrigue and is a master.

"Lord Shen is polite, it is what this official should do to mention the backwards, come, please take a seat." Zhang Langzhong pulled Shen Chongming to sit down as he spoke, and then called the handyman to serve tea.

"I've long heard that the disciple of Master Gao is romantic, and the official has wanted to meet him for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity, but he didn't expect that this time we will work together by then, hehe." Zhang Langzhong looked up and down at Uncle Xiang, and Shen Chongming smiled.

Being looked at by him like this, Shen Chongming only felt uncomfortable, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "My lord has an overreputation." ”

The miscellaneous servant served fragrant tea, Zhang Langzhong stopped looking, and asked with a smile: "I don't know that Lord Gao has been in good health recently, the official has been thinking about visiting his old man, but unfortunately there is no chance, and I asked Lord Shen to take the official to go there that day." ”

Shen Chongming smiled in his heart, no wonder this Zhang Langzhong was so polite to himself, it turned out that he was thinking of climbing the big tree of the teacher, and he could sell him a favor for a small matter.

"Your Excellency is polite, the teacher has been a little busy recently, and when we are free in a while, we will go together."

"Okay, okay, with Lord Shen's words, the official will be relieved, I hope Lord Gao will not blame the official for being abrupt." Zhang Langzhong's face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed to blatantly want to pat himself in front of a late-school student.

"Adults are worried, the most happy thing for the teacher is to talk about political affairs with others, the adult has been an official for many years and has rich experience, the teacher will definitely be happy for you to go to the house to sit down." Shen Chongming directly made the decision for Gao Gong, and then asked: "My lord, I don't know what you need to do when you accept an errand in the future?" ”

"Hehe, Lord Shen's errand is similar to that of my own official, which is to review the merits of officials reported from all over the country, and then report to this official, which is very simple." When he said this, Zhang Lang was envious, and it took him fifteen years to get to the position of the director. Now look at others, just because of a teacher with high authority and full potential, the fifteen years are left, the gap.

"Oh, I'll ask you to take care of me in the future." Shen Chongming said with a flattering smile.

"Lord Shen is polite, these are all what this official should do, drink tea and drink tea, hehe." It's quite pleasing to look at this kid, and he doesn't have the arrogance he imagined.
