Chapter 1 Officials report to the office
After Emperor Chengzu Zhu Di ascended the throne, he moved the Jingshi from Nanjing to Beijing, and the heart of the entire empire has lasted for more than 200 years. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhu Changyuan rented a larger and more luxurious car in Tianjin Wei, pulled it by two horses, sat in front of the car and took up the driving job, and walked towards Beijing with a group of families in the car behind.
The road to the capital is not far away, but Zhu Changyuan has a feeling of being in a different world, no, this is not a feeling, this is a different world. Thinking of the earth and modern society that I don't know how many billions of light-years away, thinking about Beijing in that place, and then looking at the capital in front of me, I can't believe that this is true.
Although, the current Jingshi is also extremely prosperous, and it is one of the best metropolises on the planet.
"Drive!"
After a while, the horse whip, the car galloped, shuttled at will on the prosperous but not crowded streets of Beijing, and from time to time encountered one or two princes and ministers' sedan chairs and horses, and it was over to dodge.
From Tianjin Wei to the capital, the carriage swayed for two days, and when he arrived in the capital, the most important thing was not to be an official, but to find a place to live.
Zhu Changyuan's meaning was to buy a big mansion directly, but he had nowhere to start for a while, so he could only choose an inn to live in first, and asked the shopkeeper: "Is the Jingshi house easy to buy?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled, "What do you say is good to buy, if you have money, it is naturally easy to buy, and the price is also easy to buy." ”
"And what about the price?"
"And so on."
Yes, this guy couldn't ask anything, so he simply didn't talk about the house, arranged the family, and there were two masters of Su Ya Xiaohua to protect the princess, Zhu Changyuan was also relieved, so he went downstairs.
asked where the shopkeeper's ministry was, and he came to the gate of the clerk's department alone. In ancient China, no matter what department you were going to be an official, you would generally have to report to the Ministry of Officials before taking office for the first time.
Entering the yamen of the Ministry of Officials, after being interrogated by the little servant, he was directly led to the Department of Officials.
The little guy took Zhu Changyuan to the secretary hall and said to the secretary: "Sir, this is Lord Zhu." ”
The secretary of the secretary of the secretary hall was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, and after seeing Zhu Changyuan, he asked, "What is the matter with this adult?" ”
It is estimated that young people have seen too many officials who have entered the ministry, and when they saw Zhu Changyuan, who shouted first, felt extremely comfortable. Zhu Changyuan smiled and said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, I'm here to report to the Ministry of Officials, please advise me where to go?" ”
The secretary arched his hand, his face was a little embarrassed, "Don't make fun of the lower officials, the lower officials are only nine grades, and everyone is older than me." He spread his hands and asked Zhu Changyuan to sit down.
Jiupin is indeed the smallest official in the Ming Dynasty. Except, of course, for those who don't go into the stream.
"I wonder where you are going?" The secretary made Zhu Changyuan a cup of tea and asked.
"Ministry of Works."
"Oh." The secretary nodded, and didn't ask him about any position in the ministry, and when Zhu Changyuan drank a cup of tea, he took him around the ministry, came to the Wenxuan Qing Officials' Division, and said: "The place that the adults are looking for is here, go inside and find Lord Guo, he is the Langzhong here, he will help you." ”
"Thank you!" Zhu Changyuan arched his hand towards the secretary.
According to what the secretary said, Zhu Changyuan straightened his clothes, strode into the Ministry of Officials, and saw a busy figure buried in the file in front of the internal table, and arched his hand: "The lower official has seen Master Guo." ”
The first time I used the word "Xiaguan", I felt very awkward.
Master Guo raised his head blankly, looked at Zhu Changyuan, and said, "Are you?" ”
"Zhu Changyuan, the official of Liaodong, was ordered to report to the Ministry of Officials and serve as the director of the Ministry of Workers." Zhu Changyuan saluted respectfully.
"Oooh." Master Guo stood up from the front of the desk, walked to Zhu Changyuan's side, looked up and down, left and right, and said, "Okay, good." The general is really a talent, Liaodong Zhu Changyuan, like thunder. Hahahaha. ”
Master Guo is about forty, his beard is sparse and powerful, divided into two strands hanging down from his mouth, his eyes are bright, he looks kind, but he speaks extremely boldly.
"Your Excellency is overrated!" Zhu Changyuan also learned to be modest, there are many rights and wrongs in the capital, and big officials are everywhere, not comparable to the small place in Liaodong, so it is better to be careful in what you do.
"Okay, don't be modest. I know your situation, haha, it's rare, when the life and death of the Ming Dynasty are in danger, it is really gratifying to be able to produce such a pillar of talent. When Lord Guo said this, he couldn't stop shaking his head, with a pity expression on his face, and said, "It's a pity." ”
Zhu Changyuan naturally knew what he was going to say, smiled slightly, and said, "Why do you sigh like this? In the government and the opposition, for the sake of the prime minister, aren't they all serving the country. ”
"Huh." Master Guo smiled and shook his head again, although he admired Zhu Changyuan's spirit, he did not agree with his opinion.
"Okay, congratulations to the general first, from the rank of the seventh grade of the hundred to the sixth grade." Master Guo regained his kind smile, patted Zhu Changyuan's shoulder and said, "Don't be too small, I will tell you, hehe, those who can mix to this level at your age are very human." ”
"Even after those meritorious deeds, it is nothing more than a donation to a scholar, it seems to be beautiful, but it is just a seventh grade. Okay, since you're here, I'll take you to the Ministry of Works? Master Guo asked.
Zhu Changyuan hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I'm tired of Lord Guo for a trip." ”
"It's my duty." Master Guo waved his hand and said, "Come with me, your seal, diploma and Kanhe have all been placed." ”
"Does the general have anyone familiar with in Beijing?" Master Guo asked.
"Nope." Zhu Changyuan also has two uncles who are petty officials under the functional departments of the imperial court, but Zhu Changyuan does not plan to disturb them.
"Yes. If you don't have a place to live in the capital, you can temporarily rest at the post station. ”
Damn, I knew I was here early, and I didn't need to stay at the guest house. Zhu Changyuan scolded in his heart, took Kanhe over, and thanked Lord Guo.
Guo Dadao: "Okay, we are not far from the Ministry of Industry here, you go with me, I know all the people over there." ”
"Okay."
The two of them went out one after the other, and Master Guo said again: "There is something I want to tell you in advance, you have to be mentally prepared." ”
Zhu Changyuan asked, "Please give me advice." ”
"Don't dare." Master Guo waved his hand and said, "But you have to pay special attention, those officials in the Ministry of Industry Yamen think very highly of themselves, and they like to study ancient arts, and they collect some strange things from the classics, anyway, you will understand when you go." If they say anything to you, don't take it personally. ”
"Xia Guan understands." Zhu Changyuan was alert.
