Chapter 158: Autumn Season

PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

The Chinese have always been superstitious, especially in ancient times.

A few days before the college entrance examination in later generations, the temples in major cities will be full of incense, not to mention the Great Song Dynasty at this time.

Two days before the autumn festival, many temples and Taoist temples inside and outside the city of Lin'an City were really crowded, squeezing the heels of their shoes, and they were all Qiufu candidates and their families.

The Southern Song Dynasty experienced wars, and although the population was greatly reduced, Lin'an was never ravaged by war, and the population was still prosperous.

Li Fengwu was heavily influenced by materialism, of course he would not believe in these ghosts and gods, but he couldn't stand Yelu Maitreya's chatter, and his uncle Zhou Qingfeng and his wife also came to pick up, so he took Li Julu and Yelu Maitreya to burn incense.

Don't ask for your own peace of mind, but ask for peace of mind for your loved ones.

And the scholar burns incense, and there are many more sayings than later generations, first of all, the first incense, if it is in the hometown, it is probably to go to the ancestral tomb to burn an incense, the incense should be good, the green smoke continues, and the ancestral tomb emits green smoke.

Scholars who are not in their hometown can put an incense burner in their place of residence and worship in the direction of their hometown.

The second is the Wenchang Emperor Ancestral Hall, the Wenchang Emperor is in charge of the god of the scholars' fame, burning incense to worship him in the hope of being blessed by the gods, and Wenyun Hengtong Imperial Examination High School.

Then there is the Temple of Confucius, the Holy Prophet.

Li Fengwu asked Li Julu to prepare to worship his hometown, but Yelu Maitreya thought that Li Julu was rude, so he asked him to retreat and personally help with the arrangement, which made Li Fengwu very moved.

Women of this age...... Once you have a sense of belonging, you will really give it wholeheartedly.

After all, Pan Jinlian is an outlier and a minority, and Pan Jinlian herself, who has been researched by history, is actually a good woman who strictly abides by women's morality, and Wu Dalang is also a majestic man, not a dwarf.

After Li Fengwu bathed and changed clothes, and burned incense, according to the tips of his uncle Zhou Qingfeng and his aunt Xiao Minyue, he worshiped his hometown in strict accordance with the specifications of the ancestors, until a handful of incense was completely burned out, and Yelu Maitreya urged him to go to the Wenchang Emperor's Temple.

After telling the petty officials to worship sincerely, the two of them went to the street to prepare test supplies for Li Fengwu.

The autumn is coming, and the Wenchang Emperor's Temple is almost connected with the heels, but fortunately, Li Julu is very big, otherwise Li Fengwu really can't protect Yelu Maitreya, and how much tofu will be eaten.

Protected by a black tower of more than two meters, Li Fengwu burned incense very smoothly.

Leaving the Wenchang Emperor's Temple, and rushed to the Confucian Temple in Lin'an, there were still crowds of people here, and finally lined up to burn incense, and Yelu Maitreya pulled himself to find a fortune teller.

It coincides with the autumn season, how can fortune tellers miss such a grand event, almost the entire Lin'an fortune tellers gathered near the Confucian Temple, all of them are some god operators, ancestral fortune tellers or something, and the business is so good that you don't want it.

In front of a fortune teller whose eyes were white and black, who seemed to be a blind man, Li Fengwu drew a lot and looked at the words carefully, "A song of breeze and comfort, wingspan perched on the south branch." ”

The fortune teller took the sign, but he was not a blind man, he looked at it carefully and smiled, "The little official is overjoyed, this is the sign, today's imperial examination, it will be high school." ”

The little official in front of him is dressed very well, at first glance it is the precious clothes of a well-known silk village, and there are evil servants and beautiful maids beside him, he must be either rich or expensive, and the fortune teller pays attention to the observation, how can this fortune teller not see.

Li Fengwu smiled, this sign is really easy to understand, now the Great Song Dynasty Palace is in the south of Lin'an City, Qi Nanzhi, isn't it the meaning of entering the palace, and then suddenly thought of a joke, happy, "If it is a self-hanging southeast branch, will it also be interpreted by you as a sign?" ”

The fortune teller smiled, "The little official understands very well, and I wish the little official a prosperous imperial examination." "Most of the scholars know some Zhou Yi, so it is very difficult to fool, and the fortune teller also understands that the little official in front of him is afraid that he is smart and tight, and he categorically guessed that all the signs in his lottery holder are signed.

Originally, the autumn season is imminent, and the fortune tellers are just asking for peace of mind, so we fortune tellers don't need to sign the whole thing to add blockage to the scholars' hearts.

Li Fengwu took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, "I've borrowed your auspicious words." ”

The fortune teller was overjoyed, and this little official was very heroic.

Back in Wutong Commune, Zhou Qingfeng and his family also bought a lot of exam supplies, and after Li Fengwu and Yelu Maitreya checked them one by one, they were put in the study and not let anyone touch them.

The subordinate slaves of Wutong Commune are all newly bought, or for the sake of insurance.

In the past two days, Li Fengwu has a clear heart and few desires, just resting and making up for sleep, in case the lack of sleep during the exam causes mental fatigue, and even the ordinary exercise is exempted, but fortunately, the shoulder is almost healed, so as not to affect the exam.

Time flies, on August 9, the autumn of the first year of Longxing officially opened.

Unitary time.

Li Fengwu was still asleep, and was suddenly woken up by Yelu Maitreya, looking at Yelu Maitreya with blood-red eyes, Li Fengwu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Haven't slept all night?" It's like you've become my mother. ”

Yelu Maitreya was a little excited, "Prepare early, don't miss the time." ”

After freshening up, I went to the study and checked the exam supplies again.

Because it is August, the weather is still hot, and the food prepared is mainly not perishable, such as mooncakes, such as cakes like moon cakes, smoked bacon, etc., of course, it is indispensable to prepare a thin quilt, a bookcase and some urgent unexpected pills.

Zhou Qingfeng had already bought these things, and Li Fengwu and Yelu Maitreya just checked them again.

After confirming that there was no problem, Li Fengwu asked Li Julu to carry it on his back, went out with Yelu Maitreya, and came to the front hall.

After Li Fengwu, Yelu Maitreya and Li Julu got into the carriage, the servants went back to sleep and went back to sleep.

Soon after the drums were sounded, the streets and alleys of Lin'an became noisy, the sound of cars and horses, footsteps, and conversations sounded one after another, and countless lanterns were lit up.

This time, in Lin'an Qiuqiu, the main test plus the lock hall test, there are seven or eight thousand people.

Arrived at the Guozijian, it was already a sea of people, noisy and noisy, if it were not for the patrol soldiers to maintain order, I am afraid that it would have been a mess long ago, in view of the large number of people taking the exam, a huge fence was enclosed in front of the Guozijian, and the family members who sent the examination could only be sent outside the fence, and the candidates needed to bring a pair of items into the fence to wait for the examination.

Let Yelu Maitreya go back to rest earlier, and tell Li Julu to be more vigilant in the past few days, and Li Fengwu entered the waiting area.

After waiting for most of the hour, after the fifth watch drum sounded, the patrol soldiers lined up in the fence, and many officials of the Ministry of Rites were also all present, each with a big wooden sign in his hand.

Autumn begins.

[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, and it must be better! 】
