- Such a scene of being watched by a crowd of onlookers, once in a lifetime is enough, Chen Ke really doesn't want to come again, but unfortunately the next day, he has to go to the Confucian Temple to carve the inscription tablet, and on the third day, there is also a banquet in Jinmingchi. Every time, the ceremonial guard is neat, and the audience is like a tide, and he also has to shake up his spirit for the Bianjing elders to visit.

Parade for three days is a great honor and an absolute chore. Chen Ke has strong muscles and bones, and he has practiced all year round, but he is better. The rest of the jinshi are not the focus, they are more casual, and there is no big problem. Only suffered Zhang Heng and Dou Bian, barely lasted until the third day, and was rubbed by the saddle to the crotch bleeding, and the waist was so painful that he couldn't stand up, just looking forward to these tedious ceremonies coming to an end quickly.

Even an honest man like Dou Bian, riding on a horse, couldn't help but mutter: "Didn't you just give a banquet to Qionglin Yuan, why do you want to go to Jinmingchi again?" ”

"Although it is also a banquet given by the Son of Heaven, only new science and technology scholars can participate in Qionglin Yuan, and the accompanying people are also pavilion scholars, and the rest of the people cannot participate." Zhang Heng explained with a wry smile: "But this time to give a banquet to Jin Mingchi, it is to have fun with the people." Not only will the concubines arrive, but the officials will also bring their families. And the people of Bianjing can also enter the Royal Forbidden Garden. ”

This is true, the imperial court will post a yellow list at the Yiqiu Gate by the Yushitai at the end of February, announcing that the majority of Bianjing citizens will allow Shishu to parade in Jinmingchi and swim in January from the first day of March to the eighth day of April. On the premise that officials may not be on business, they can also come to Jinmingchi for a casual banquet. At the end of March, Qionglin Court will be opened for another month......

descendants of Western countries. The monarch after becoming a model goods. Their palaces will be opened regularly for the public to visit, as an image PR. But in the Song Dynasty, which was more than a thousand years away from the end of the damned imperial era, the officials of all dynasties would open the royal forbidden garden every year to make the officials and the people happy.

'The people are safe and the king is happy', this is a compulsory course in the education of the kings of the Song Dynasty.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sure enough, the people stood and watched them go two days ago, but today they went together. The team of more than 100,000 people, regardless of the high and the low, the old and the young, and the carriages and horses. Hao Hao rushed out of the city and headed towards Jinming Pond.

This Jin Ming Pond and Qionglin Yuan across the road opposite, the first year of Taiping Xingguo, Emperor Taizu with 35,000 soldiers to smoke the pool. It is made by injecting water from the Jinshui River. The circumference is nine miles and thirteen steps, the pond shape is square, there is a wall around it, at first it was a place to train the water army, but the south has been peaceful for a long time, there is no water war again, and it has also become a garden for the royal spring outing and watching the water play.

After several transformations, this place has completely lost the slaughter of the school field and has become a fairyland on earth. I saw that there are three bridges side by side on the sparkling pool surface, and the bridges are all vermilion lacquer. The lower row of goose pillars, the center is uplifted, like a flying rainbow. At the end of the bridge, there are five halls connected to the Baojin Building, stand in the center of the pool, the heavy hall Yuyu, the Xionglou Jie Pavilion, the strange flowers and stones, the rare birds and monsters, the dock horse head, the warship dragon boat, everything is complete.

It was March, the weeping poplars of Jinming Pond were dipped in water, and the tobacco was paved with embankment, and the flowers were like brocade and blue waves. Pink butterflies among the flowers, yellow warblers on the trees. Embellishment with this full spring mood.

After entering the Jinming Pond, which is like a painting, the team of new science and technology scholars went up to Hongqiao and arrived at the Baojin Building in the middle of the lake. This is the palace of the official family and the concubine to enjoy the spring water play, and it is also the palace for the banquet to entertain the jinshi and the civil and military officials.

For the safety of the emperor and queen. The people were not allowed to set foot on the Hongqiao Bridge and approach the Baojin Tower. The rest of the place is for them to play.

However, there is nothing to complain about for the people living in the hinterland of the Central Plains, because what is unfolding in front of them is an extremely fresh and magical realm. I saw the sparkling waves, reflecting the island palace standing in the water, shining and golden. In the pool, the dragon boat holds its head high, the boats are clustered, the yachts are wandering, and the bridge flies thousands of feet Changhong; On the shore, the pavilions are majestic, surrounded by trees, the colorful sheds are crowded, the tricks are surging ........., and the citizens who live in the cramped city and are accompanied by the turbid Bianhe River that comes and go by boat all day long all feel great satisfaction. They soon got into the groove, watching water shows on the shore and entertainers performing in the open field. There are still many people who are rushing towards the pass.

I saw the vendors, along the edge of the pool to set up a luxurious color curtain, the curtain laid with precious jade toys, colorful silk utensils...... Citizens are thrilled by all kinds of exotic toys. All the shops are full of gamblers, not only money can bet, from the big chauffeur house to the small singer and dancer, you can bet one by one.

The new science and technology scholars sat in the Baojin Building, but their eyes looked at the clear spring waves, floating colorful boats full of big flags, lions and leopards, brute brand swords, and gods and ghosts; Listening to the blowing and singing outside, and the noisy gambling, they all couldn't sit still.

The official family was understanding, and knew that in the past three days, these young people had been restrained, so he raised his wine glass and said with a kind smile: "After drinking this glass of wine, the widow will go upstairs to watch the bidding, and you are free to play!" ”

Zhong Jinshiden's heart was full of joy, and he said that the old emperor was too understanding!

After toasting and looking at the official family upstairs, the new science and technology scholars dispersed in a hurry, some went to take a boat to watch the water show, and some hurriedly ran to gamble. There are also those who walk out of Hongqiao and wander around to see the scenery.

Chen Ke and Zhang Heng didn't want to go anywhere. In the past few days, their every move must be in accordance with etiquette, lest there be a slight mistake, and their spirits are highly tense, and they just want to rest at this moment. So I found a boat, asked the boatman to make some wine and food, rowed to a quiet place on the shore, and enjoyed a moment of leisure.

Wulang was going to follow, but when he saw his father-in-law Wang Xianrong, he came over with a smile and said, "Xiu'er is also here today, why don't you go and sit down?" ”

Gorou snorted in embarrassment and looked at his third brother.

"Of course Zhuang Yuanlang is going to go together," Wang Xianrong warmly invited: "I didn't see you last time, and my family is very sorry, and I want to see your demeanor." ”

"Thank you, thank you, but let Gorou go by himself today," Chen Ke smiled apologetically: "I'm so tired today, I can't be rude." ”

Wang Xianrong invited others again, who wants to be a light bulb? They all shook their heads and refused.

Watching the pair of sons-in-law leave, Chen Ke shook his head and couldn't help but sigh in his heart...... My brother is older, and he won't be a follower anymore.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Boating on the pond, but seeing the water shining, the surging frost and snow, the embankment grass paved, the willows swaying, the Jinshi felt very relaxed, many people moved the poetry, and deeply regretted that there was no prostitute to come, how can there be the atmosphere of chanting poetry and filling in the lyrics?

Chen Ke sat at the stern of the boat, holding a glass of imperial wine, looked at Zhang Heng beside him, and asked the question that had been held in his heart for a long time: "Brother Ziping, why did Zihou go away when he was on the list, is it really too low?" "The eighteenth place in the second class is not low.

"Hehe......" Zhang Heng was a sincere gentleman, and said with a wry smile: "My uncle can be subservient to anyone, but he can't fall behind my nephew, or any Zhang family." ”

"Why?"

"This ......" Zhang Heng smiled awkwardly: "Brother Zhong Fang, forgive me, the matter involves the ** in the family, and it is inconvenient to tell you." ”

"I'm sorry." Chen Ke originally thought that this guy Zhang Dian was arrogant, but now that he saw that there was something else hidden, he naturally stopped asking.

"It's okay." Zhang Heng smiled mildly: "Actually, it's okay to take the next subject exam, with Zihou's strength, it's no problem to take a A subject, if you don't get into it this time, you will definitely be able to get it next time." ”

"yes, yes." Chen Ke nodded and said: "The second department jinshi has three more years of grinding, and if you can be admitted to the first department, you can earn a year." ”

The basis for the initial official position of the imperial court is that the new branch jinshi, in the palace examination, the examination grade, the jinshi promoted to the top, within ten years to the minister, so the palace examination is extremely important. ..., according to the regulations, the champion was awarded the eight products as a prisoner, and the state was sentenced. The second and third places are Dali's commentaries and general judgments. The fourth and fifth are the two envoys. Sixth, the lower class of the first class is the junior shogunate. Under it, the second class is the trial title of the county bookkeeper and lieutenant, and the third class is the trial title judge secretary lieutenant.

The so-called trial title is a trainee who has not been formally awarded. Therefore, except for the first branch of the Jinshi, they all have to practice for three years before they can be officially conferred. The top ten are directly awarded, which is naturally three years faster.

The vast majority of Jinshi are nine grades, starting from nine grades, even if they are champions, they only start from eight grades, and according to the regulations, they wear purple robes above the third grade, and wear scarlet robes above the fifth grade. Above the seventh rank wears a robe, and above the ninth rank is a green robe, that is, a blue official uniform. Therefore, the new science and technology scholars have to be given robes, which is the longen of the official family.

However, among the 372 jinshi in the same department, not all of them are special gifts, and there is one who can really wear a robe, and that is Chen Ke.

According to the rules, if an official is admitted to the Jinshi examination, he can be promoted to two levels on the spot, and the champion is awarded one level higher than the same department. Therefore, after Chen Ke won the championship, he could be promoted to three levels in a row. He was originally the undertaker of the eighth grade, and he jumped directly to the general of the sixth grade as a young eunuch.

The rest of the officials, such as Song Duanping and Wulang, are all awarded the seventh grade or from the seventh grade, and they are still one step away from wearing the robe.

And the champion also has a preferential treatment, after being released for one term, as long as there is no major problem, he can be recalled to the capital to fill the position of the museum, and make great strides towards the road of Zaifu.

Therefore, Zhang Heng said with envy: "Zhong Fang went to the local area to sharpen and sharpen, I am afraid that he will be able to proclaim his wife in ten years." ”

"I'm afraid I'll be sharpened into scum." A wry smile hung on the corner of Chen Ke's mouth: "When I am sent, I will ensure that none of you envy me." ”

"Zhong Fang knows what he is doing?" Zhang Heng said strangely.

"I know a little, but it's hard to say," Chen Ke smiled, and suddenly heard the commotion on the pool, so he changed the topic and said: "Look, the competition has begun!" ”——
