Chapter 64: Jiuqing
In the night, Bai Mo was scribbling in front of the bookcase, writing a miscellaneous poem with a lot of words but not according to the rhythm and not talking about any grammar. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"Let him in." Bai Mo rolled up the scroll of manuscript paper and put it under the bookcase, and straightened his clothes.
"No."
So a eunuch came into Bai Mo's mansion, a standard eunuch with a hunched back and a low eyebrows, about thirty years old, and when he saw Bai Mo, the first thing he said was: "Congratulations to Mr. Bai." β
"What's the congratulation method?"
Bai Mo said, and said to the maid who came to serve the guests: "Fang Fei, quickly show this old man a seat." β
"Hehe, no need, our family is used to standing in the palace, and it's uncomfortable to sit."
The eunuch greeted him and continued: "Mr. Bai, a few days ago, there were a total of seventy or eighty people in the imperial examination, and most of them had already received envoys yesterday and went to various places to take up posts. β
Bai Mo nodded: "I've heard a little." β
"So our family wants to congratulate Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai is one of these ten people, passing on the order of the Zhuguo and the Great Sima General, Mr. Bai please wear a crown and belt tomorrow and enter the palace with the civil and military officials."
"Do you have a seat?"
"When the time comes, there will be a deacon guide from the celebrant, so Mr. Bai doesn't have to worry."
"Why is it the order of the Great General Sima, and not the dictation of His Majesty?"
"Mr. Bai doesn't know, this imperial examination was actually a suggestion made by General Sima at the beginning, and after His Majesty and the prime minister agreed, it was also handed over to General Sima to organize and handle, so at present, the edicts on major matters related to the imperial examination are all from the Shangzhu State Government."
Bai knows, thank you...... Uh, haven't asked the adults what to call it? β
The eunuch shook his head and said, "It's not an adult, it's a villain, just call Mr. Bai a slave and a little plum." Alas, don't say it, everyone says that Mr. Bai is gentle and elegant, in fact, the slave didn't believe it at first, those celebrities and crazy Confucians, our family has seen a lot, and when he went to Ye Gongzi's mansion, he was beaten by him...... I still have back pain. β
"I have also been a madman, but I will not beat people at will, and I said: Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself. Zi said: Repay grievances with directness, and repay virtue with virtue. This is the foundation of Bai's actions. The Ye Gongzi that Li Gong just talked about, is it Nancheng Ye Cun? β
"That's it. Oh, it's not too early, our family still has to go to Xun Wuyi's house, so we won't talk to Gongzi Ya. β
"Okay, Fang Fei, send off."
Fang Fei sent the eunuch who called himself Xiao Li Zi out.
This is the first time that Xiao Yan's relationship with the imperial examination has been confirmed from "official channels".
As for who these ten people are, Bai Mo has already grasped the exact news through Leng Yuyan's channel, Xu Jian and Xun Wuyi are impressively listed, and the other seven are also famous people in the merry goods, so it is not surprising why some people in the genre school think that the imperial examination is a procedure to make the merry goods official, and the scholars who came up in the imperial examination are just branches of the genre school.
This also once again reflects the prescience of the Mo family giant to let him accumulate fame first.
Among the latest amorous products, Bai Mo's ranking has entered the second grade, and it is now listed as the twentieth rank of the second grade.
It is said that the prime minister used almost all the power that the Wei family could use for this purpose, and vowed to let Wei Zheng worship Jiuqing.
The next day, Bai Mo learned the lesson of going too early last time, and this time he almost pinched the point outside the North Hell Palace, and when he got off the carriage, it happened that the civil and military officials were heading to the inside of the palace.
Bai Mo followed them and came to the Shenglong Hall again, after entering, there was no need for the eunuch to guide him anymore, Xu Yan, Xun Wufei and others were already sitting neatly on the left side near the main entrance, the area where they were sitting happened to be empty, Bai Mo didn't care about the three seven twenty-one, and sat down directly.
Today's Xu gradually swept away the decadent appearance in Qingxingfang, full of energy, he took the lead in getting up and saluting Bai Mo: "Brother Bai, don't come to harm?" β
Bai Mo waved at him: "Very good." β
Xun Wufei really changed the green shirt full of patches, and today he was wearing a dark blue coat, which was woven instead of embroidered with the harmonious dance patterns of the Great Jin Dynasty tiger and crane, and there were wind and clouds in the dark, and the fabric was delicate, obviously from the royal product - Bai Mo had joked before that the emperor looked at him pitiful, and eighty percent would give him a dress, and now it seems that he is indeed in the middle.
Now looking at Xun Wufei's originally average-looking face, it looks a little noble, and it really depends on clothes.
After Bai Mo and Xu gradually exchanged pleasantries here, it was naturally Xun Wufei's turn, but Xun Wufei did not say polite words like "Don't come to harm" like Xu Yan, but said very mysteriously: "Brother Bai, are you proud?" β
Bai Mo also responded with a smile: "Haha! I am proud! β
The emperor had not yet come, and all the civil and military officials sat in their seats, chatting happily with the front and back, left and right, without inhibition.
The ten sons of the imperial examination on Bai Mo's side are introducing themselves to each other.
"In Xia Nancheng Ye Cun, when Brother Bai entered the second grade, I only withstood the lack of Brother Bai's third grade in the third grade, ashamed and ashamed!"
"You're ashamed, old man Uncle Fang, you have two in your sixties this year, and you have only entered the third grade, but you don't see the court to lift it! That's why I participated in this imperial examination, haha, in the end, my luck was good! β
Ye Cun and Fang Bo's voices were loud, and when the rest of the people introduced themselves, they all spoke softly, as if they were whispering.
Bai Mo only knew their names.
Ji Ping, Liu Xin, Yu Luo, Zhang Xing, Sui Ming.
Among them, Yu Luo's surname Yu is the surname of the emperor of the previous dynasty, I don't know if he has any relationship with the royal family of the previous dynasty, and if he recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, the emperor of the Beiming clan in the North Hell Palace now also belongs to the princes surnamed Yu, and the Bei Ming Zhensu will also call himself "Yu Zhensu" when worshipping his ancestors.
Finally, the emperor boarded the dragon chair with the support of two eunuchs and four palace maids, and the Manchu civil and military did not shout anything "Long live my emperor", but stood up silently, bowed to the emperor, and the emperor waved his hand and sat down together.
"Do you have something to do?"
Bei Ming Zhensu yawned, as if his sleepiness had not subsided.
On the right, a polite and thin old minister stood up, bowed to the emperor, and said, "The minister has a book." β
Listening to this voice, it was the old minister who had commented on Bai Mo's appearance that day and was suspected of being Xiao Yan by Bai Mo.
"Say." Beiming Zhensu was still listless, and it seemed that the thick long beard with a full chin looked a little wilted today.
The old minister cleared his throat and picked up the wat board, and the civil and military ministers were all silent, pricking up their ears, unwilling to leave a word.
"Xu Yan, the people of Gyeonggi, Wen Tao and Wu Luo all want to hit the leader of the world, and now they are the first in the imperial examination, and they are the first disciple of the Sword Sect Lu Guichen, with a clean background, and the ministers think that they can guard the palace, defend the imperial family, and take the post of guard captain."
After the old minister finished speaking, the ministers were in an uproar.
At the beginning, you want to be ranked in Jiuqing?
Do you want to give it to the officer of the guard?
According to the law of promotion in the Jin Dynasty, whether it is selected by the merry goods, or promoted by merit, or promoted by the shadow, at the beginning of the alternate officer, that is, Lang Zhong, and then slowly promoted to the squire, Zhonglang, and Yilang, and then to fill the real gap.
Before Wei Wei Han Fei was implicated in the Han Long case and sentenced to death, there was a gap in Wei Wei's official position, but it was not filled, and the acting official did not become a regular, so it turned out that the mystery was here.
Someone is going to speak out against it.
However, the military attachΓ©s on the right side said one after another: "The minister seconded the proposal!" β
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
These military attaches are already in strong shape, and their voices are even higher than those of civilian officials, and for a time the hall was full of "ministers seconding the proposal", which was deafening.
Beiming Zhensu knocked on the table hard, and the military attachΓ©s closed their mouths one after another.
"Alright, stop yelling, I'm ready. Xu Qing, sit in front. β
Xu gradually got up and bowed to the emperor, and then under the guidance of the eunuch, he sat on the seat of Jiuqing.
For a while, the aura on Xu Yan's face became fuller.
Now Bai Mo is almost sure that the old minister must be Xiao Yan!
Except for Xiao Yan, who else can make the Manchu generals so respected? Even if it was Taiwei Zhao Guangzhong, he couldn't do it. Moreover, now Zhao Guangzhong is still leading troops outside, and it is said that he is stationed in South Korea, not in the DPRK.
Bai Mo prayed in his heart not to sit with Xu Yan.
There are only nine places in the imperial examination, and now there are only the Tingwei who originally belonged to Han Long and the Weiwei who originally belonged to Han Fly. Wei Wei gave it to Xu Yan, it has been made clear, now it is up to Ting Wei to whom he gives it.
No matter who it is given to, it is not himself, Bai Mo would rather only be a Langzhong at the beginning.
As the old saying goes, the step is too big, it is easy to be light, when you are a celebrity and a diner, Bai Mo can be arrogant, this is a means of selling fame and reputation, but when he arrives at the court, he must be steady and steady is the right way.
"Xun Wuyi, a person from Luoyi, knows the excellence of practice, and the reason of Xiaotian, and the minister thinks that he can be appointed as the Pinghuai Order."
Pinghuai Ling is a subordinate official of the internal history of Su and is in charge of prices. Zhisu Neishi is one of the Nine Qings, and is now being held by Wei Wen, the eldest son of the Prime Minister. became the subordinate officer of the snarky Wei Wen, and a few years later, Xun Wupeng, a humble gentleman, didn't know if he could stand it.
"Ye Cun, a person from Fengjing Nancheng, is proficient in writing and ink knives and pens, and can make Shangshu orders."
Shang Shuling was a subordinate official of the Shaofu and managed the palace Chinese book, probably similar to the Ming Dynasty's Bingbi eunuch, although not one of the nine Qings, but the real power was not small.
"White ink."
Finally mentioned himself.
Bai Mo's mood suddenly became a little nervous.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Bai Mo actually felt that the person who was suspected of Xiao Yan turned around and smiled at himself.
"Bai Mo, a person from Fan Yang, is known as a literary name, and his knowledge of Tao strategy is valued by Pei Xingjian, and he is familiar with local affairs and legal affairs......"
Familiar with local affairs, this comment can be understood as the impression of the temple examination.
But do you know the law?
Bai Mo didn't dare to think that he knew all about the law.
An ominous premonition suddenly rose in Bai Mo's heart.
"The minister thinks that he can be a court lieutenant."
Really.
Afraid of what comes.
Beiming Zhensu suddenly laughed: "Yes." Xiao Qing, you took a fancy to that kid who only served as a palace gatekeeper, but I still took a fancy to this kid's great ability, and you also know that he is suitable to be a big official, come on, come on, come forward and sit! β
The old minister smiled slightly, undeniable.
Under the guidance of the eunuchs, Bai Mo sat on the position of Jiuqing.
