The driver and his entourage continued to go deep into the urban area of Bianliang, and Chengyuan found that a strange well appeared on the street side of the Kaifeng Minfang District every short distance, and Wang Pu beside him was surprised by Chengyuan's attention to these wells. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chengyuan was puzzled, there were no reels with bolts on these boreholes, which was really strange to look at. When he was in Xuzhou, he occasionally found this kind of thing. However, due to the small number, he is only regarded as an abandoned dry well, but it is everywhere in the Jingshi.

Suddenly, a woman carrying a wooden bucket and carrying a baby on her back came slowly and poured the filth from the bucket into it. At this time, Chengyuan's eyes lit up for a moment, and he picked up the pen and wrote the manuscript paper. Wang Pu saw the noise in the surrounding city and the colorful clothes of passers-by, but "Kuixing" didn't care, but stared at these dumped sewers, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Brother Wang, where will these filths flow into the well?"

"The filth in these holes leads to a hollow, sometimes wooden, sometimes stony, and under it some sand, and through this coarse and fine percolation, the rest goes into the earth. Hollow areas and fine sand should be cleaned to keep them clean."

Cheng Yuan suddenly realized: "Although the sewage has been filtered, it is still sewage after all," Cheng Yuan knew that no pipeline system was not the way in the end, "After many years, the soil was stained by it, and the rancid smell was dark, and it was because the king of the ancient city had to change places after hundreds of years, and there may be something to do with it." ”

Wang Puqi said: "The thousand-year-old ancient capital of Luoyang, Xijing, is indeed full of filth now, and the world only says that its royal spirit has declined. ”

Chengyuan was happy in his heart: Wang Pu, the famous prime minister, and the small clerk of the Wenzhou Municipal Planning Bureau were talking about the problem of urban sewage here, which if they knew about it on the Internet forum, it would definitely attract a bunch of trolls to watch.

"Don't talk about these idle words anymore," Cao Zheng coldly interrupted their conversation, and after he ordered Qiu Er to stop driving, he pointed to a row of houses across his hand, "The place has also arrived, Cheng Kuiyuan, you can rest here first." ”

"Where is this?"

"Hongrokan."

Cheng Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Honglu Pavilion? Isn't this a place where the government receives foreign envoys? ”

Everyone got out of the car, only Cao Zheng got out of the carriage and sat in the driver's seat, when they first entered the city, everyone had found a craftsman to repair the yoke, so Cao Zheng drove the horse off the front of the car, and was about to drive alone.

"Won't Uncle Zhigong be separate with me?" Wang Pu said with a smile.

Cao Zheng glanced at him and hurriedly arched his hand, seeing that Chengyuan's mouth was still not closed, he couldn't help but explain to him:

"Cheng Kuiyuan, you are the envoy of the heavens, and you will be treated as an envoy to Beijing with the courtesy of the envoys from all over the world, so the one who will receive you is the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites for the time being, although the capital is not more dangerous than Xuzhou, but after all, there are all kinds of related relationships, and there are thousands of complicated things, fortunately, you have Qiu Erbao, there should be no accidents."

"So...... Why don't you stay here? ”

"I want to go to see Liu Shuai urgently, he must have something to discuss with me." He pointed to the south of the city and said, "When the local civil and military officials enter the capital, they must live in the post house outside the city at night, and they can live in the city if they have other wills, and this old rule has always been the case since the Zhenyuan period. ”

Cao Zheng was anxious to see Liu Yanseng, so he whipped his horse and drove away. Chengyuan has come to share the joys and sorrows with him all the way, and of course he is slightly reluctant to say goodbye at this moment.

"Fortunately, there is still Dou Ranlan to accompany me." Cheng Yuanzuo thought so.

"Since Brother Dou is from Chu, he can live in the Honglu Pavilion with me."

Wang Pu smiled and said: "Don't talk nonsense, the king of Chu serves me as Zhengshuo, we Chu and Han are all one family, how can he live in the pavilion of Honglu Temple?" Rebellion? Or go home with me, and meet my family by the way, and then there will be his old man to take care of him, and there will be a good arrangement. ”

Dou Ran Lan is overjoyed, now he is shy in his pocket, if there is the care of Wang Zuo's family, the deputy envoy of the third division of the DPRK and the Central Committee, of course, it is much better than the guest house. It is impossible to have a good environment before the exam.

Chengyuan knew that Wang Zuo's family and Dou Ranlan, the son of the official eunuch of the Chu State, would of course pull each other together, these two guys were candidates at the same time, if Dou Ranlan was lucky enough to win, then in the future, Wang Pu, a friend of the champion Lang, would be on the same list, and the future would be immeasurable, and there might be a chance to stay in the Central Plains. However, seeing Dou Ranlan's joy, he was still slightly unhappy in his heart.

After everyone said goodbye, Qiu Er took out the Dengzhou envoy tooth token that Cao Zheng took out, as well as various documents, and walked into the pavilion with Chengyuan.

The official name of these buildings was originally the Sifang Pavilion, but because it was under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple, it was also called "Honglu Pavilion".

Chengyuan, as a civil servant of the modern government, and the people at the reception of various units are commonplace, but the Honglu Zhangshu and Zhailang who receive them here have maintained absolute silence except for a few words when leading the way, without any gossip, Chengyuan Ceramics touched a few soft nails, only to think that this is the rule for visitors from the feudal country.

Most of the laws of the Later Han Dynasty directly quoted the Tang Dynasty, and the "Career System" stipulated that the officials of Honglu Temple "will be hanged if they leak major matters and should be secret, and those who should be secreted for non-major matters will be imprisoned for one and a half years", and its enforcement is surprisingly strict. In order to evade their responsibilities, the officials in the hospital were simply dumb.

Cheng Yuan smiled secretly in his heart: "After the envoys from the Quartet returned to China, they complained one after another, saying that the Central Plains Dynasty's reception of foreign vassals was ignorant and arrogant, and similar records are endless. ”

Most of the buildings in the courtyard were empty, and after the end of the Tang Dynasty, the relationship between China and the West was not as close as it was at the beginning. The guests who came and went with foresight wore robes that were tied before and after the opening, and they walked like two curtains of the gates, swaying around, knowing that they were all Khitans. Liaobang had just withdrawn its troops from the Central Plains not long ago, and was still watching China, so the vigilance of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple must be higher. In addition, there are many monks from Dongfuso, who are religious scholars who participate in the Tiantai Sect.

Chengyuan entered the guest room of the Honglu Pavilion, exhausted, and fell asleep as soon as his butt hit the couch, and he slept until dusk. Unexpectedly, the bearded Qiu Feihu tossed him again:

"Lieutenant Cao ordered me to explain some matters to you."

Chengyuan knew that he must have come to urge him to continue practicing calligraphy, and he was a little impatient in his heart. However, he has some admiration for this Qiu Erhuzi, although when he first entered the city in Dengzhou, he was locked in the house and starved for a few days, but after all, he recently explained to himself some horse control techniques and the principles of fist and foot martial arts. In the past few days, I have regarded him as half a strict master in my mind.

"Second Brother Qiu, you can say it."

"In a few days, the spring examination of the Ministry of Rites will be opened, and County Lieutenant Cao asked me to supervise you and go to take the exam."

"You...... What did you say? Chengyuan was stretching his lazy muscles, when a guy jumped up from the floor, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. laughed so hard that he choked half to death from his own saliva, so he fell to the ground and patted his chest and coughed profusely.

As soon as I was born, I heard the most ridiculous joke......

"Where is County Lieutenant Cao? I want to see him! Second Brother Qiu, should you take the Ministry of Rites exam? Do you want me to take the provincial test? I have never participated in the local preliminary examination, and of course it is impossible for the state government to give it a solution, so I ran to the capital like this, and I was not beaten out by the officials of the Ministry of Rites? ”

Chengyuan followed Cao Zheng and ran through many days of hardships and dangers and finally rushed into the capital, and when he heard that the plan to enter the capital was actually for this kind of thing, he roared out:

"I haven't even participated in the local village drinking ceremony, Cao Zheng...... This Cao Zheng is crazy! ”

Chengyuan was emotional, and couldn't help but say disrespectful words to Cao Zheng. The main reason is that this matter is really ridiculous, the scientific research in the five dynasties is full of drawbacks, and it is the most unorthodox, but it is a major event of the country, Cao Zheng, as a wise and powerful person next to Liu Yanseng, actually made this thing coldly, it is simply ridiculous.

"Who said the state didn't give a solution?" Qiu Er heard him scolding Cao Zheng's words, but he didn't respond in a bad tone, but still lightly explained the task, "What about it...... This is the solution given by the state capital Qiuju for you, but it was reported a few days ago, and I looked at it carefully. ”

Cheng Yuan saw that he was holding a paper tube in his hand, so he grabbed it, but the seal was still sealed with fire paint.

"What is this? What does it have to do with me? ”

"I don't know much about the scholar, so I can only relay the words of Cao County Lieutenant to you: You are following the regulations of the Jiedu envoy and the state government, Liu Shuai and Hu Tingshi have both approved, no need for a local test, you can directly enter the Beijing provincial test."

Chengyuan silently ......

Of course, he also knows some of these things, since the Middle and Tang Dynasty, local students should have taken the local solution test in the fall, and the state government could only solve them after passing. However, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, due to the division of feudal towns and towns, the centralization of power was greatly weakened, so the various rulers often skipped the examination and sent the students directly to the central government to participate in the provincial division. Over time, this has gradually formed a convention, which is called "pulling".

After Zhu Quanzhong, the king of Liang, became emperor, the rise of the five dynasties, and the imperial court briefly issued an edict to put an end to this bad rule of education and talent selection. However, due to the continuous wars for many years, the imperial court always had to win over this side and attack that side from time to time, so the edict of "prohibiting pulling" was never really implemented. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty, the emperor also painted the gourd in the same way, and failed to focus on rectification.

Qiu Er saw that he was deep in thought, so he continued to explain: "Lieutenant Cao said, if you tell you this arrangement early, then you will definitely have some trouble. I will simply take you to the capital first. ”

"Second Brother Qiu, I don't have any exam papers...... The imperial court let a person of unknown origin come to take the exam, is it not in accordance with the law and reason? ”

"No...... Your disc book. ”

Qiu Erhuzi threw out another thing like a trick.

"This is the dish text approved by the Ministry of Rites, Cao County Lieutenant said: Since you are a living treasure in the world, you naturally do not have an exact family background, and the family form and the names of the ancestors of the three generations in the dish can be vacant, which is explicitly approved by the Ministry of Rites."

Chengyuan looked at the plate, it was the sign and seal approved by the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

At this moment, he was really completely dumbfounded............

I also found that Qiu Erhuzi still had no intention of letting him rest, but still wanted to speak and stopped.

Chengyuan was not a fool after all, so he sighed and asked rhetorically:

"Okay, the solution was also given to the disc and approved...... And then there's the exam questions, right? You are so powerful, I'm afraid that the exam questions of the imperial court have already been leaked. ”

Qiu Erhuzi "snapped", and sure enough, he threw out a bunch of things.

Cheng Yuan thought secretly in his heart: "Your old man just changed his name and called it Doraemon......
